    Summary

    It's nearly the last day of fifth year, and Sirius really isn't looking forward to the summer.

    Get-together fic (spoiler alert, but really, what were you expecting?) set over the summer of 1976 and into the autumn.

    Summary

    AU in which Remus, being as he is a werewolf and all, is homeschooled til he is 16.

    Hogwarts is something of an experience, not least because there's this boy called Sirius Black.

    Summary

    Sirius’s thoughts are a slow-moving, impending disaster. How he wants to pin Remus up against the cupboards, to crowd him into a corner; how he wants to intertwine their fingers, to brush his lips against Remus’s forehead, his jaw. Instead, he settles for ducking his head and sliding a finger through the belt loop of Remus's jeans—a ridiculous gesture so utterly intimate, even for the pair of them, that he only allows it because he’s just drunk enough.

    “Stop stealing my bloody clothes, Lupin.” He says, very quietly.

    Remus looks up at him, eyes dark, and murmurs pleasantly: “Better learn to do your own laundry then, Black. Consider it my fee.”

    ***

    It was an impossible thing, living with Remus Lupin--but Sirius was doing it anyway.

    Summary

    Waking up to find your life completely altered and changed forever isn't ideal, less so when your best friend can barely stand to look at you. Sirius made a mistake, he knows that. Staring down the narrowing tunnel of his future and what it holds, he struggles to set things right, clawing his way back up from the ground and hoping there's a brighter light waiting on the other side of a towering mountain.
