    Summary

    LONG fic charting the marauders' time at Hogwarts (and beyond) from Remus' PoV - diversion from canon in that Remus's father died and he was raised in a children's home, and is a bit rough around the edges. Otherwise canon-compliant.
    1971 - 1995

    This IS a wolfstar fic, but incredibly slow burn. Literally years. Long build up but worth it I promise!

    PLEASE DO NOT COPY TO WATTPAD. SERIOUSLY, WHY??

    Summary

    50s/60s AU where Clay and George meet after both of their dates ditch them. They talk and share an intimate experience together, one they will surely never forget. After their night together, they struggle with confusing emotions as society doesn't allow them to be together, meeting and being torn apart almost too many times for their hearts to handle. But after all, love always does seem to find a way.

    ---

    “Well I love lots of things. I love my family, my best friend Sapnap, cats, the stars, beaches, hugs, music.. the colour blue.”

    “Blue? So now you’re stealing my favourite colour?” George said in a joking tone, looking down at Clay.

    Clay opened his eyes to look at George before saying “I’m not stealing it. You can’t steal a favourite colour George, people share them. Besides, blue isn’t even my favourite colour, it’s green.”

    “Why do you love the colour blue then?”

    “It reminds me of you.” Clay said it like it was the simplest thing in the world.

    Summary

    His birthday comes and goes. He sees his family, hangs out with friends, Sapnap comes over and they spend the entire weekend gorging on food and playing games together like they’re nineteen again. There’s a barrage of fanart and excited messages flooding his mentions, and while it’s a lot less than at the height of his career, it’s still enough to make his phone practically useless from how the notifs keep popping up.

    George shoots Dream a text wishing him a happy birthday in the early morning. It stings like it does every year and that stubborn part of him, the one that’s been growing stronger, harder to ignore now that he’s been letting it get a voice inside Dr. Luz’s office, demands him to fix this.

    There are a lot of things Dream wishes he had done differently, but the way he let George slip through his fingers is perhaps the one that haunts him the most.

    Summary

    Desperate to escape a bad situation, George impulsively takes a last minute job serving as a fire lookout in the Montana wilderness. He's expecting nearly five months of complete solitude as he keeps watch for fires by day and tries to heal from his past by night. What he's not expecting is a chatty neighbor in another fire tower twenty miles away. Dream is an experienced ranger tasked with keeping an eye on the new guy, but as they talk day by day over the radio, getting to know and slowly trust one another, something new starts kindling beneath the surface. Will the spark between these two strangers die in the smoke, or will it turn into a full-blown fire? And what will happen when fire season is over and George has to go back to his normal life, full of troubles?

    Summary

    After dropping out of school, Clay (affectionately named ‘Dream’ by his coworkers) has been living on the Sosoni Flats for years now, a cattle ranch in the middle of nowhere Nevada, with no plans of leaving. Unofficially adopted by the owner of the ranch, Dream has spent years at Sosoni Flats and assumes this summer will be no different. Plans derail when the ranch head’s stuck up nephew, George, comes to stay at the ranch for the summer and causes trouble within mere hours of being on the range. Between a drought, wild horses, rodeo competition, and George himself, Dream has to find a balance between protecting what is important to him and learning how to let others in.
