oregano flow by @barkingatthemooninsteadofwriting
“Hey, are you Remus?” the figure asks, stepping forward to reveal a boy that can’t be a day older than fourteen, smiling brightly while fiddling with his wire-frame glasses.
Remus just blinks at him, flabbergasted, unable to wrap his mind around the fact that the person he’s spent the last week corresponding with after getting his number from a friend of a friend of a work acquaintance—the person that he’s here to purchase drugs from—seems to be an actual child. He opens his mouth, closing it when all that comes out is a sort of breathless squeak, which the child looks justifiably concerned at, because a grown adult who just squeaked agreed to meet him in what is possibly the shadiest location in the city, like some sort of pervert. He’s going to end up on To Catch a Predator, or whatever copycat version of the show is airing now, or even worse… a podcast.

Sirius Black and the Marauders (the fanfiction!) by @shunstanpike
Sirius, James, and Peter have spent their whole lives dreaming of becoming rock stars. When a powerful executive from Phoenix Records strolls into Godric's Hollow looking for a new band to sign, that dream starts to come true. But the rock star lifestyle of television appearances and brand deals isn't exactly what they expected. Will they be able to keep their solemn oath to put their friendship first, or will the pressure of fame get the best of them?
And what's really going on behind the music?

moon fluff. by @heysaykitkat
A bright grin stretches across James' face, safety goggles on, and his hair is even more wild than usual, all of which makes him look like one of those muggle mad scientists.
Mad Wizard, more like.

Deep in the Weeds by @stellarusername
At 38 years old, Remus was used to a lot of things. The ache in his joints from a whole host of conditions that caused flare ups and swellings and stiffness. The concerned looks his Mam gave him every time he had to try a new medication for all the mysterious ailments he suffered from that most doctors couldn't seem to find evidence of. The slightly judgemental looks he got from his manager and her secretary when he asked to work from home for medical reasons, again.
So when his doctor suggests he try an... alternative solution for his failing appetite and increased anxiety, Remus decides to give it a chance. After all, what could go wrong?

Make it everybody's problem by Mikibou
Remus doesn't like it when James says 'furry little problem'.
So he plots a revenge.
Too bad he sucks at potions.

let the rain fall down (i'm coming clean) by barkatthemoon
The first time Sirius brought it up he’d discounted the entire thing as some sort of joke, but then he kept talking about it, and the longer it went on the less sure Remus felt about asking about it. At this point it’s been so long that he’s afraid that he’d sound like an arsehole who doesn’t support his boyfriend’s wants if he voiced his concerns, especially since he had already been an arse who didn’t want to come stay with the Potters at all this summer, but…
Here he is.
At the cottage.
Still as unwilling to piss on his boyfriend as he was the first time Sirius brought it up.

40,000-Year-Old Love Song by @puuvillaa
Europe, 40,000 years ago. Remus is a lone Neanderthal, who has lost his parents to starvation. His kind has been slowly disappearing, and he’s alone in the world. When he hurts his ankle while hunting, he knows that the end is near, but he’s then unexpectedly saved from certain death by Homo sapiens Sirius, who takes him home with him. Can two species so similar yet so different coexist?

Sirius Black and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Shirtless Curse by @astralsunshine
Sirius Black expected many things from his eighth year at Hogwarts after Voldemort was defeated. He did not, however, expect to be cursed to roam the castle completely shirtless, flaunting his visual assets to undeserving eyes.
The sight of a shirtless Sirius Black is, of course, one to behold—but why won't Remus Lupin look at him?

Magically Delicious by @cornwall1977
When Remus wants to bring food play in the bedroom, Sirius is eager to give it a try.
It's just that the foods Remus had in mind... aren't quite what he expected.

Clipped On You by @emperorem
After the C-Suite of James Potter, Sirius Black, and Marlene McKinnon assigns Remus a very boring work assignment, he decides to entertain himself by adding Clippy clip art, the once-upon-a-time Microsoft Office helper.
And really, the whole thing starts innocently enough—he swears it does.
But Remus stumbles across a surprising side of Clippy. Although in retrospect, it shouldn’t have been surprising. The internet truly has a little something for everyone.
And this little something is sexy Clippy.
