Wolfstar Top Ten Challenge!
As I was revamping my rec list page recently, I added some top ten lists from @wolfstarhq and @jencala (here and here). I'm one of those people that loves top ten lists, and I thought it would be fun to not only do one myself, but see what would be on everyone elseâs top ten lists!Â
So I present to you the Wolfstar Top Ten Challenge! Just create a post with your top ten favorite wolfstar fics! They donât have to be in order, you can leave comments or just list them, itâs all up to you. :D I only ask that you include all of the authorsâ names so they can be celebrated too!
Either @wolfstarwarehouse in the post or tag it with #wolfstartopten and Iâll reblog it! Then I can hopefully create a masterlist with links to everyoneâs top ten lists. :)Â
Iâll be the first to start and give you my top ten all-time favorite wolfstar fics:Â
1. A Cure For Nightmares by @picascribit: A boarding school!au that perfectly mixes angst and romance. Heavier subjects are handled so well and the whole story is wonderfully written, with characters that I love intensely. Itâs my all-time favorite; it gives me all the feels every time I read it.Â
2. Sex and Dying in High Society by fluorescentgrey/@yeats-infection: A first war story full of music, angst, heartbreak, and gorgeous writing. A masterpiece that I will never get over.Â
3. Work With This by @veeagainsttheday: During the first war, Sirius starts to fear for his future and it pushes him to finally ask Remus out on a date. I love this fic so much I canât even describe it. It warms my heart and fills me with hope.
4. Long Live Living (If Living Can Be This) by excaliburned: A non-magic!au set during their last summer before university while they work at Warwick Castle. One of the best AUâs out there. Funny and adorable and full of oblivious boys being disgustingly cute and in love.
5. Being An Historical Record of Events Surrounding the Unfortunate Truth-Or-Dare Game of February the Twenty-Second, and Consequences Thereof by sodomquake: A veritaserum filled game of truth or dare forces Remus to admit his feelings, and awkwardness and kissing ensues. Now this is where I can trace back my love of truth or dare and potions fics. Itâs so cute and I love it just as much every time I reread it.
6. Let Nothing You Dismay by @montpahrnah: During the Christmas season of 1979, Sirius finds himself questioning his sexuality, his feelings, and just how much you can pine for someone before you have to do something about it. Beautiful writing combined with the sweetest story; an incredibly lovely fic.
7. In the Bed by @bigblckdog: The post-prank fic to end all post-prank fics, in my opinion. Incredibly creative and gorgeous use of paintings and emotion. Itâs everything I love in one masterful fic.
8. Three Card Monte by @enjambament: An Oceanâs Eleven-inspired heist!AU, and itâs as awesome as you think it would be. It has amazing characterization and a full backstory; itâs dazzling and hugely entertaining.
9. We Build Our Own Unfolding by @imochan: After Hogwarts, Sirius finds his flat constantly filled with Moony. This whole fic is a kind of slow burn towards realization. A little sad, a lot hopeful, and beautifully told.
10. Now by youcantseeus: When the second war is over, Sirius and Remus and Teddy are still alive, but Remus has a hard time coping with life. This is another one Iâve reread too many times to count. Itâs that mix of heavy feelings that can make you tear up and gentle, comforting, domestic fluff.
That was incredibly difficult, and they arenât in any sort of order, but there are my top ten. I canât wait to see what everyone else includes on their lists!Â
