    Summary

    astra inclinant, sed non obligant (the stars incline us, they do not bind us)

    . . .

    Of all the fights Joel has dragged his brother into, none of them have ever been worthy of Tommy’s loyalty, until this one.

    “You don’t know what she’s been through, Tommy. She’s just a kid. She needs—“

    To be held.

    To know that she deserves to live.

    To know that she’s setting the world right just by existing, just by breathing.

    Tommy finds the words he can’t. “She needs people to love her, a safe place to grow up and do some healin’. I reckon you, me, and Maria can give her that.”

    Or: the Part II where Ellie gets her chance at saving the world (or at least her little corner of it) and finds out just how loved she is along the way.

    Summary

    The room is illuminated by a flash of lightning for a split second, and it’s enough for Joel to see that Ellie isn’t in her spot on top of flat cushions against the wall.

    “Shit,” he mutters, scrambling upright and unholstering his pistol. There’s a loud rumble of thunder again, and Joel spares a second to wonder if she’s the type of kid who gets scared by storms.

    Sarah had been like that, spring storms in Texas sending her scurrying to his room until she was at least ten. Even after that, when she’d stayed in her own room, he would go in to check on her and more often than not find her curled in a ball. He had never known why, since it wasn’t like they’d had particularly terrible storms when she was real little. She seemed to have been born with an innate fear of them, and no amount of reassurances or it's just angels bowling could make her relax.

    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

    “Sirius. What have you done?”
    “Why do you always assume I’ve done something?”
    “Sirius.”
    “…Nicked a baby.”
    “WHAT?”

    It’s interesting, isn’t it, that Sirius Black managed to narrowly avoid prison, and yet he ended up on the run from the law anyway?
    This is what happens when a desperate man kidnaps his godson and drags his ex (who he’s probably still in love with but he doesn’t want to talk about that) across the country as they hide from Albus Dumbledore, a group of angry housewives and the entire Ministry of Magic. This is what happens when two men who are grieving and angry at the world and each other have to pull it together for the sake of a child who is the greatest little legacy James Potter could have left behind.

    Summary

    One split second of monumental clarity. With this clarity comes back-breaking punishment, as Dream begins to only sleep an hour at best for every day, drowning in the misery of hallucination- inducing insomnia. Facing an upwards battle with himself, he suffers the internal war of his enthralled mind, heart, and body, over one certain friend of his. a desperate battle to escape his sleepless nights of torment he finds he can’t contain his feelings for George much longer before everything starts to unravel for one tired green boy.

    __
    Inspired by the sweetest of brainrots Heatwaves by Tbhyourelame had to offer

    If the CC’s ever state this makes the uncomfortable it will be immediately removed. I value their friendship over anything else.
