    Summary

    “What do you want me to do?” Remus says, tiredly. All he wants is to curl up on his bed. Smoke a pack of cigarettes. Get drunk. He can’t stop looking at Harry.

    “Remus...” Dumbledore is gentle. Remus hates when he has that tone. Hates that he knows it will hurt. “There is no one else left.”

    A bitter laugh escapes him. “So you’ll curse the poor thing with a werewolf for a guardian?”

    Summary

    It’s his sixth year at Hogwarts, and Remus Lupin has no intentions of making any major changes to his daily routine. He’s a creature of habit; of schedules and lists and predictability, and of comfort…when he has the option.

    James Potter, however, has all the intentions of making major changes to Remus’s daily routine. It’s out of love, Remus knows this, but that doesn’t mean he has to like it.

    And, as the year progresses, James isn’t the only one testing the boundaries of his friendship with Remus Lupin.

    Summary

    “I meant it” Remus added, his voice softer “What I said yesterday.”

    Sirius felt his heart stop and his breath hitch. Remus was looking at him with those big brown eyes, and he felt as if his heart would never beat at a normal pace around the other boy. “In what way?

    “In whatever way you want me, Sirius.”

    And that was it, the tipping point.

    “I can’t have you in the way I want you.” He all but whispered. What was worse than unrequited feelings were forbidden ones. “They won’t let me.”

    Love is complicated and Remus and Sirius are idiots :)

    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)
