    Summary

    And just like that, Bucky Barnes’s political career is over.

    Congress convenes, he resigns, and then he and the Thunderbolts – or the "New Avengers," they're calling themselves now – decide to grab some pizza. They saved the world from an ever-growing Void of fear and bad memories. They've earned a quiet day in together.

    Then Sam Wilson shows up.

    And Bucky just breaks.

    Summary

    With the benefit of hindsight, she cursed herself for how obvious it should have been; the long stretches where they assumed he was busy but never knocked on his closed door to check, the fact he seemed to be around no matter what time of night and the way he never seemed truly comfortable with any of them.

    “Yelena, it’s not your fault.” She looked at him skeptically, and Sam doubled down, “Whatever you think you did, it was likely the straw that broke the camel’s back, with all he’s been through.”

    “I should have known something was wrong,” Yelena’s voice had dulled, and she let her head tip forward until her forehead rested on her knees, talking to the floor, “He did not spend time with any of us, always alone, and it should have been so obvious he was suffering but we did not see it. So blind, when he was so kind and we did nothing in return, not even check on him. Maybe this would never happened if we had just been a good team.”

    Sam helped him feel human again.

    -

    Summary

    Regulus hasn’t seen or heard much from his boyfriend in a few days. He doesn’t blame James, not at all. He knows that things have been a bit tough, between moving out of his childhood home and into his own flat with Marlene after finishing his undergraduate degree and not having his mum and dad around him anymore. It was sudden, even if he was expecting it, and Regulus knows that James isn’t doing well.

    -

    James is burnt out. Regulus takes care of him.

    Summary

    "You know what I want to do about it.”

    “Do I?” James asked, but Sirius could tell he did. He had that look in his eye; the one he got when Sirius laid out a new idea and James was already thinking five steps ahead, figuring out what materials they’d need and how soon they could get started.

    So Sirius said two words he never thought he’d say.

    “Kiss me?”

    (Or: Sirius has never fancied anyone. He and James decide to test a theory. Written for the HP Ace Aro Fest 2024.)

    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.

    contrapasso [con · tra · pas · so]
    the punishment of souls by a process either resembling or contrasting with the sin itself.

    The first time they meet is in Copenhagen.

    Regulus is on holiday, halfway to drunk off his ass in a dingy back alley pub. He’s never believed in love at first sight—in fact, he thinks it’s a rather ridiculous concept—but the first time he catches sight of him across alcohol-sticky floors and air thick with smoke, Regulus might be persuaded to change his mind.

    Summary

    Sirius narrowed his eyes. “Christ, you're a brat.”

    “What’s a christ,” Regulus blurts, and smacks a hand over his mouth in desperation. “Nevermind. I’m–”

    Fine, is what he tries to say, but his throat actually spasms, and the word dies before it's ever born.

    Trying again, he clears his throat and carefully selects, “I can handle this myself.”

    Or: Regulus Black, many, many cups of ale, a pinch of veritaserum, and one Sirius Black.
