Summary
The Dementor finds him again. It always does. Remus feels it before he sees it.
“You’re not my friend,” he tells it.
The Dementor does nothing, says nothing. Remus expected nothing less, because what else would happen? He’s approaching as mad as Sirius Black, if he thinks he’ll get a reply from a loosely held together mass of soul and despair.
1993. Remus Lupin has enough ghosts and spectres following him around the castle, without a Dementor following him as well.
James. Lily. Peter. Black has escaped from Azkaban, and shouldn’t Remus say something about that? And the other Black. Regulus.
It isn’t any surprise the Dementor is interested in him.

Summary
Outtakes, deleted scenes and alternate universes of my fic Tangled Strings and Technicalities.
A few of them sort of work alone (the one with Sirius and the WI does), but most of them make a lot more sense if you’ve read the main fic first.
Each chapter marked with content warnings and the chapters it spoils up to, if any.
Mainly requests.

Regulus Black had never intended to live forever, but neither did he intend to die in a cave at the age of eighteen. And, if he lived, nor did he plan to be thrown straight into the middle of a new war, or to fall in love.
They’ll go down in history somehow. Together, perhaps.

Summary
“Hogwarts can’t last forever, you know. I’m leaving in July.”
This is the story of how they fell into it, in the safety of Hogwarts. A shared desire to protect Sirius, perhaps, or a shared interest in magical theory. That feeling of waiting for something else to begin.
This is the story of how they fell out of it, when the real world looms. It was always going to end, was it not? It would never last. The Death Eaters and the Order called.
This is the story of Remus Lupin and Regulus Black.

Summary
Remus Lupin is a werewolf, and werewolves can’t be trusted to fall in love. He’s always believed that. As the Second Wizarding War begins to play out around him, he begins to have feelings for a clever, funny and talented Auror. And she has feelings for him too. Follow Remus through the gathering storm of war as he tries to piece together a life for himself despite the dangers around him, the death of his last best friend, and the effects of being in love for the very first time.
This is not going to be a traditional romance. It is a story of love and werewolves, of learning to fight like a Muggle and to trust in himself.
The story follows Remus from halfway through Order of the Phoenix to the end of Deathly Hallows. It’s canon-compliant. I skim over the scenes we see from Remus in the books, but they can all be assumed to happen exactly as written. Major character death is for those already described in the books.
