    Summary

    “You look really well,” Jesper says then, unable to help himself.

    “I know,” Wylan says plainly, with a small shrug. “It’s classic me. Came to college and got pretty.”

    Jesper laughs, although he’s not fully sure why. It just feels like such a Wylan response to give, whatever that could mean; a little self-deprecating, and also gesturing to the understanding—the knowledge—that they have of each other. Is it classic Wylan, to do this? Only Jesper would be able to tell. Only they could understand each other like this, even now.

    Jesper and Wylan aren’t friends in school, but they certainly aren’t strangers, no matter how much they try to act like it. In university, their lives continue to weave in and out of one another’s, pushing and pulling each other through their insecurities, pasts, and other relationships. But they always seem to come back to this fact—they can never be strangers.

    Summary

    Marlene McKinnon is a mess. She can’t sleep, she’s almost certainly going to fail all her NEWTs, and she’s 99% sure that if they don’t win the Quidditch Cup this year James Potter will throw himself headfirst off the Astronomy Tower. On top of all that, there’s a war on, yet their professors seem determined to pretend that the biggest problem any of them are facing is finding a Ministry internship. Marlene’s final year at Hogwarts has barely started, and she’s already pretty sure it couldn’t get any worse—that is, until she shows up for her first Potions class and hears the assignment.
    ///
    Dorcas Meadowes is a stone-cold bitch. At least, that’s what everyone says. She doesn’t need well-meaning professors or overeager classmates or teammates or boyfriends or friends. She doesn’t need anything except to be left alone, the way she likes, until the day she finally leaves school. And she certainly doesn’t need Marlene McKinnon, with her sharp tongue and her snorting laugh and her stupid shiny hair, who seems intent on ruining everything that Dorcas has been working towards for the past two years.

    Summary

    “The House Cup. It’s official—they’re letting hedges compete.”

    “Wow.” He doesn’t know why this seems to knock the wind out of him. It’s not as if he didn’t know this was coming. Can hardly forget an event that only occurs every twenty-one years. An event that at three-years-old was probably his first real memory. One of his only memories of, well, before. “That’s great, Lily…”

    “It is. It really is." She smiles to herself. “Because we are going to wipe the floor with those prissy, gatekeeping, ‘classically trained’ wizards.”

    Summary

    "The heat—the hands around your throat, cotton in your mouth, dripping dripping dripping sweat kind of heat—has finally got to him. It’s turned his poor, helpless, underdeveloped brain into gutter muck and asphalt grit. He’s grown up in a bubble, a hole he will die in, a cabinet under the stairs, a rural town a minute big with no stoplights and a cruising speed limit. He’s been in a petri dish with the same kids his whole life, it’s stunted his growth, his taste, his scope of the world."

    or remus and sirius are dumb kids who are shit out of luck, but kind of in love anyway?

    Summary

    1985, London. The wizarding queer art scene revolves around a gallery called the Bent, where conceptual artist Remus Lupin and photographer Sirius Black exhibit their works, and a club called the Bush, where they spend time with Jane and Lily Potter, who work at a nearby heath clinic. Although war with Voldemort was averted, the wizarding world is still simmering with tension. In the face of increasing intolerance and calls for censorship, Remus’ art takes a riskier, more political turn, and he must figure out how to balance self-expression and safety. Also, he might be falling in love with his best friend.

    ‘You didn’t escape from Azkaban for any of this,’ Remus reminds him.

    Summary

    "Perhaps that would be the solution to all of this. Just scream and scream and scream until he disrupted everyone in the building, until he made them all feel as uncomfortable as he was feeling today. Until maybe, just maybe, they could understand a sliver of his pain. He was dying and he had gained a third of a stone and he was dying and he was dying and he was dying–"

    Summary

    “If you could go anywhere in the universe right now, where would you go?”

    Remus chews the inside of his cheek as he considers. He glances sideways at Sirius again. Reclined in the passenger seat with his feet kicked up on the dashboard, tapping the beat to the music, Sirius looks completely at home.

    Here, probably, he thinks.

    UK, 1977. Remus had a plan. He was going to take an idyllic road trip across America with his best friend. He was going to write something that mattered. He wasn't going to be what his dad wanted him to be.

    Getting bitten by a zombie dog wasn't part of his plan.

    Now, Remus is parentless, homeless, and searching for his friend on the off-chance he’s still out there. But as it happens, the universe has a plan for him, and it involves hitching a ride with a trio of posh boys who like to plunder fallen towns...and maybe saving humanity in the process.

    It’s the zombie fucking apocalypse and Remus Lupin is still alive.

    (A tale of resistance, found family, and what it means to be human.)

    Summary

    When Sirius Black is unmasked as a spy, it seems that nearly everyone in Bletchley Park knew all along that something wasn't right about him. But Lily Evans thinks otherwise. She knows that if Black really was a spy, he'd have done it properly, and would have never been caught. Remus Lupin doesn't believe Sirius is a spy either. According to the landlady, she found the stolen ciphers in his room between the pages of a magazine filled with photos of half-naked women. And Remus knows that such a magazine would hold no interest for Sirius. It's not much to go on, but both Remus and Lily are determined to get to the truth. A man's life depends upon it.
