    Summary

    The wound inflicted upon Alastor by Adam is deep and unfixable, so much so he dies before the battle against the Exterminators comes to an end.

    He has no idea what comes from a double death, but he's pretty sure it isn't supposed to be this!

    [In which Alastor is reincarnated as Lilith at the dawn of time, and he would like to have a refund issued thank-you-very-much!]

    Summary

    “C’mon sweetheart, you gotta give me something. I’m dyin’ to know what to put in the obituary of the guy who went headfirst off a church in Hell’s Kitchen," Wade tries yet again.

    The man remains silent for another beat before speaking up in a voice that's scratchy from disuse. “Lawyer,” he says. “I was a lawyer.”

    “But not anymore?” Wade asks. “You get fired? Disbarred? Why's lawyer in the past tense, gorgeous?”

    “I died,” comes the quiet response, and Wade is suddenly very aware he's in the presence of someone potentially crazier than himself for once.

    Summary

    “They’re… chaos,” Remus said firmly. “And chaos is—”
    “Rock and roll.”
    He looked at Sirius sharply, and for once, matched his grin. “Yeah.”
    “Maybe that’s my excuse then,” Sirius said. “I cause a bit of chaos now, and maybe one day, it’ll turn into rock and roll.”

    After losing his mother at age eleven, Remus has spent the better part of the last four years bouncing from school to school or else running around London and pretending as though he wasn't the kind of well-bred boy his father brought him up to be. Now, with his chances all run out, Remus is sent to Hawkings Independent School as a last-ditch effort to clean up his act. There he meets the very people who will set up the rest of his life, and is forced to confront the pieces of himself he'd long thought had been lost.

    (genuinely not apologising for the slow-burn in this fic anymore. You've been warned <3)
