    Summary

    Regulus has it all figured out. He keeps men on a rotating roster so none can get too close, works nights as a dancer to make the most of his chronic insomnia, and pushes everything he doesn’t want to remember about the past ten years into the recesses of his mind. It’s easier to pretend none of it ever happened.

    But when James Potter crashes into Regulus’ life with his fancy sports car, wealth beyond measure, and devil’s smile, it marks a switch in the natural order of things. James is a client; Regulus isn’t allowed to fall in love with him. Except James is the first man in a long time who can see past Regulus’ carefully constructed façade, and who could ever resist the temptation of being known?

    Or, this is a story about identity, addiction, self-expression, and love in all of the varying shapes they can take.

    Summary

    Remus loves Sirius, and Sirius loves Remus.

    That’s just the way it is—call it a law of the universe or just the way the world works—but after four years away, Remus gets a call from Sirius asking him if he remembers a promise they made freshman year.

    And, of course, Remus remembers. How could he not?

    Something like a love story from the summer of 1978, full of Southern Cuts and Old Style, shitty motel rooms, and questionable decisions. Poor excuse for poetry and late night dancing, a trip to Vegas, and one too many honeymoon suites.

    Cherry pop rocks, too-tight pants, and a road trip across the U.S.

    Summary

    A selection of individual chapters written from the POVs of other characters featured within "The Cadence of Part-time Poets".

    I have not planned a set number of chapters or characters for which I will be writing, this is purely for fun. Some chapters may be quite long in length, others just a scene or two. This sub-fic is tagged very sparingly so any/all trigger warnings will come at the beginning of each chapter, please be mindful of those.

    I'm open to suggestions of different scenes or POVs in the comments. Peace!
