"Regulus could remember many a family gathering that had devolved into disarray as soon as Sirius Black saw the bottom of his wine glass."
I miss Regulus Black Fest so much, lol. It was the only one that ever brought the sweeter version of Sirius Black out of me. Ironically while being one of the few fests to put up with my deranged and inappropriate content.
He should smoke more, though, yeah?

That's what you do when you're short-sighted, reckless, a touch self-centered and also fucking your brother upset with your family, right?
Ahh... I suppose I will just have to get myself in gear for Padfoot Fest and write one of the Sirius/Regulus prompts I've been staring at. Provided I can stop being so sleepy.
( ुᴗᵨᴗ)ु.zZ
But there's a Sirius/Regulus prompt that involves an uncle and how can I say no to that?

Sirius and Regulus having a bunch of threesomes because it's the only way they can have sex without admitting that they want to have sex with each other
Regulus stared warily at the bars of his cell. “Then why are you still here?” he rasped. “Leave and escape if you’re so recalcitrant.”
“Oh, you sound like Father,” Sirius spat, advancing a step on Regulus and smirking when Regulus scuttled back in fear. “And believe me you vile little...obedienciary,” he added in a cruel, mocking tone. “I will be leaving as soon as I’ve got what I want. And you can remain here, spitting out your sesquipedalian words like Father’s ghost is going to finally love you.”
The mods are thrilled to announce another round of celebrating everyone's favourite Marauder (okay, maybe just ours). We can't wait to see all the incredible creativity this fandom brings blooming. Or is it barking? Perhaps a little of both.
Check out the banner created by the lovliest @meowyjean for this year's schedule and dates. We hope you'll join us for another year of Sirius-centric fun! (Don't let the banner confuse you! xD)

HP Hedonism Fest is a Harry Potter fandom festival for fanfiction & fanart dedicated to the theme of hedonism – all that is pleasurable. In our festival works we strive to explore all human lusts, urges, and appetites of more or less sinful nature. This is a strictly 18+ festival.
(the posting period is a subject to change depending on the number of the works submitted)
You might not be sure what hedonism even means. Well, in the world of our fanworks it is all about indulgence, pleasure, and the pursuit of sensory, emotional, and physical satisfaction in all its forms. Whether it’s carnal desire, excess, indulgence, or the thrill of the forbidden, this fest is here to celebrate it all. Possible themes and kinks that fall under the umbrella of hedonism include (but are not limited to):
Somnophilia – The allure of desire while one partner is in a state of sleep or semi-consciousness
Intoxication kink – Exploring the effects of alcohol, potions, or other substances in heightening pleasure and lowering inhibitions
Sensory overload & deprivation – The intense pleasure of heightened sensations or the thrill of being deprived of one’s senses
Exhibitionism & Voyeurism – The excitement of being watched or watching others in intimate moments
Power dynamics – From dominance and submission to authority figures indulging in their deepest desires
Indulgence & decadence – The luxurious side of pleasure, whether it’s fine dining, silken sheets, or an over-the-top, lavish rendezvous
Taboo & Forbidden Desires – The thrill of stepping beyond social norms into the realm of the unthinkable
Feeding kink – The eroticism of feeding or being fed or gaining weight, often tied to themes of control, indulgence, and sensory pleasure
Food kink – The incorporation of food into intimate moments, playing with texture, taste, and the messiness of indulgence
This is a space for dark, delicious, and delightfully indulgent works, and we can’t wait to see what you create!
More under the cut.
Rules & FAQ
We do not allow ANY AI-Generated content. In-part or whole. That means you cannot use any AI-powered software for your submission – for writing, idea generation, or copyediting. If there is a strong suspicion that AI-generated content has been submitted, we will first reach out to the author/artist and talk to them privately and directly. If there continues to be suspicion of AI use, the response will likely include rejecting the work from the collection and the author/artist will be banned from participating in future rounds of the fest.
What is the minimum length requirement for a fic?
All fic entries must have a minimum of 500 words. There is no maximum word count.
Do I have to use a fic beta?
Although it is always preferred, betas are not a must.
Are threesomes/moresomes allowed?
Absolutely. The more the merrier? And doesn't maximalism just scream hedonism?
Are all genres allowed? What about AUs?
Yes. We want it all, angst, fluff, space AU! As long as you enjoy creating all the endeavours to the fullest!
Is dead dove/taboo content allowed?
Yes. If you wish to sign up for our fest, please remember that because this fest is open to dealing with mature subjects, you might come across such a prompt in our prompt list which is left completely uncensored. We expect all participants to take responsibility for curating their own experiences within the fest.
I like more than one prompt, may I claim more than one?
Of course! However, we do require you to finish your first prompt before claiming a second.
Can I claim my own prompt?
Yes! Self-prompting is allowed. You can either leave it to destiny, submit a prompt and then try to claim it, hoping you are the first one to request it, or you can opt to sign up by requesting “creator's choice” in the claiming form.
How many times may a prompt be claimed?
Each prompt can only be claimed once for each type of media. This means one prompt can be claimed twice only if it's for fic and for art. No two fics or two artworks can be made for the same prompt.
How many prompts can I submit?
As many as you can come up with. The more the better. A large and varied selection of prompts is never a bad thing. For every new prompt you have to submit a new form.
Can I claim a prompt even if I haven’t submitted one?
Yes. Submitting a prompt is not a requirement for claiming one.
Can I submit a prompt(s) even if I’m not going to write for the fest?Of course!
May I submit a story which is part of an existing series or a WIP?
No. When you submit the story, it needs to be complete (it can be either a one-shot or a multi-chapter, but it has to be finished). If you decide to write more after the fest is over, that’s absolutely allowed!
I finished my entry early. May I submit it early?
After you have finished your fic, you can upload it on the ao3 collection yourself (LINK HERE). Once you have submitted the first entry, you can fill out the claim form again, requesting the second entry.
Will you grant extensions?
Of course! If you find you need an extension, or even think you may need an extension, please email us.
I need to drop out. What should I do?
In case you can’t finish, need to drop out (whatever the reason, we understand RL and muses get in the way), please email us on [email protected] as soon as possible.
All works will be posted on our fest ao3 collection. This is an anonymous fest, and there will be a posting schedule - works will most likely be posted at different times than their submission. Please add the account of hphedonismfest as a co-author, so we can change the posting date (which will most likely be different to your work submission date) to the correct one to ensure the most visibility (your work will come up at the top of the ao3 search if it has the current posting date). The hphedonismfest account will be removed once the authors are revealed and your work will solely appears on your own account.
HPAGEGAP Fest prompting starts in 5 days — February 13th!
Are you ready?
Prepare to unleash your wildest age gap ideas! We’re so excited to see what prompts you come up with and to gather a whole treasure trove of inspiration for all of those who would like to participate.
Start brainstorming, start spiralling, start getting unhinged — prompting is almost here and we cannot wait!!!
Walburga Black said some minutes later, and Sirius couldn’t help but notice that the bloodiest fight scene in the film seemed to have prompted his mother to remember. “Fifteen is a special year,” she added, not taking her eyes off the Simbas as they hacked Yvette Mimieux’s husband to pieces. "Oh, oh Claire you poor thing...!"
Sirius stands up with such force that he feels his head rush, and for a moment, he’s dizzy. It takes several deep breaths before the cries of blood from the Congo leave his senses and everything fades back to the grizzly grey-black that shines ruefully against the light of his wand.
The Lueur is best left cold and closed. Sirius knows it will never be repaired and that all that’s left is to wait for it to fall. Maybe someday, he thinks, the Muggles will build something on its ashes.
Harry Potter world is about to get a little more complicated… and a lot more intense.
Introducing HPAGEGAP Fest — an 18+ Harry Potter fandom fanwork event dedicated to celebrating love that transcends years, eras, and expectations.

I am one 5-book/2 film/4 episode miniseries VC Andrews binge older and I have learned 4 things after ascending to my final form as Resident Expert On All Things Foxworth:
Dollanganger is the raddest name ever.
"The-quarters sibling" is real term that already exists.
All novels should be legally required to use 1980's painted artwork for their covers and modern photographic cover art should be banned.
Kelsey Grammer seems to be wholly dedicated to ruining everything I've ever loved.
We’re a fest dedicated to the highly underrated Moonchaser — the James Potter and Remus Lupin ship.

Hi, Hi! How have you been lately? I keep finding myself scrolling through the starcest tag on ao3 missing you and your works. So I just thought I'd stop by and see what you've been up to. Hope all is well! ❤️️
(✿◠ᴗ◠) I'm doing great, thank you! Been working on a big bang fic that'll be going up soon--psyched for that! Reggie-centric, of course because what else do I know? Lol. Big Bangs get art from people more talented than I am and I am pumped for my artist's additions to the fic! The first Harry Potter fics I ever read were from a Sirius-centric Big Bang so it's always been a goal of mine to participate in one. This one's James/Regulus which is probably as close as any Big Bang is ever going to get to Sirius/Regulus (˃ᗜ˂)
Recently got a new job so I've been a bit awol because of that but things are settling into a nice routine now...enough so that I felt confident claiming one of the prompts for the upcoming top!Regulus fest, which is a dynamic I've been wanting to flex my muscles on! (Get ready for ten levels of karma, Sirius Black!)
Anyway, super sweet of you to check in! I'm in a festy mood of late so if you know any good upcoming Marauders events do toss them my way. Been going feral for filling prompts recently ৻( •̀ ᗜ •́ ৻)
Got a trip near the end of the year, so I'll be for realsies gone for a month or so, but I'll be home before the holidays and back at scribbling down my pretentions nonsense n.n I'll probably still be plugging away at Sirius/Regulus fics ten years after the sun has consumed the Earth, lol.

Last year I completely ditched all the streaming and subscription services we were paying for--Hulu, Youtube Premium, Netflix, gone! It started as a necessary step to help cut costs during a recent (unwanted) downgrade in household employment. But even now that things have picked back up I don't want them back.
I don't like how content is created and consumed nowadays. I hate the impermanence and the 'second screen-ness' and the constant tinkering...random episodes from older shows re-edited because they couldn't license the music rights a second time, entire episodes missing in some bizarre, tokenistic appeal towards progressivism, as if a random episode of The Golden Girls showcasing racial issues in a slightly less eggshell-y way than today is the cause of inequity in the world, rather than the all-white board that pushed the delete button.
I hate the bombardment of 18 million sub-par options cluttering up the screen, the endless scroll of mindlessly trying to find something to watch. I despise getting some pretty good enjoyment out of the first few hours of a series only for it to slowly become clear that what I'm watching is a 90-minute film obnoxiously stretched to 7 hours as an entire creative team collectively forgets how to edit themselves.
I hate that nothing released in the last half decade has ever been something I've wanted to watch more than once. What a disposable waste of film digital camerawork.
I hate having to chase shows around as they hop from service to service. Can't stand seeing older shows stretched into the wrong aspect ratio because someone in a board room somewhere decided for me that I have a crippling fear of pillar boxes.
So our household has officially jumped ship. As the streaming services I used to enjoy (when they were a way to find older shows and movies long past their initial runs, before each service was trying to replace what was once a novel entertainment idea with some sort of Voltron-esque amalgamation of television and Hollywood Frankensteined together into one big financially unsustainable nightmare) give way to a landscape so convoluted and expensive that it's on track to just become Cable TV 2.0, I've dived back into my physical media collection.
One thing fortunate about the packrat gene I was born with is that I never got rid of all my stuff. The physical DVDs, Blu-Rays, CD's, etc...they're all still there on the shelves of my honest-to-God entertainment system. The Sanyo TV from 2007 still works perfectly (we've gone through 3 bedroom Smart TVs in the time we've had that hand-me-down old set). It was all still here waiting for me.
On a side note, may I sing the praises of my 20 year-old Sanyo for a minute? Thing can play PAL region video signals fucking flawlessly, no converters necessary! That's so rare for North American TVs. I remember when I first got my PAL-region Playstation, naively unaware of the idea that it likely wouldn't work on a US television, and then plugging it in to just...perfection. All those Reddit threads I'd been sent by my coworkers as they warned me not to hook it up (you don't have the right converters, you're going to break everything!). Nope, turns out I have accidentally and serendipitously found myself with the perfect television set for a retro-gaming and electronics weirdo like me. Sanyo, you rock(ed? Are they still around? I'm not sure...)
I know it's not for everyone. But I love my physical media collection. This perfectly curated little space just for me. I love looking up from my TV and seeing the Japanese version of Gremlins that I found for like 200 yen at a flea market in Gifu, the old DVD of Lilo & Stitch that still lets Lilo crawl right into the dryer, the little dummy, and the pièce de résistance, that random bootleg Diabolik Lovers DVD where someone in the localization room fucked up and all the em dashes in the summary got replaces with eñes.
Ideas like having streaming and physical media just haven't worked out for me. Because I end up just using streaming as a way to sort of preview a few things to see if I want to buy them or not, and really that's not worth the hundred bucks a month it costs to keep up with them all. Plus it was like the subscriptions were sucking the life out of my physical DVDs. Maybe this wasn't the case for anyone else, but just knowing in the back of my mind that I had Netflix or Hulu or whatever was...almost paralyzing. My movies were all gathering dust because I was ignoring them in favor of...cycling endlessly through multiple pages of Apple TV listings, knowing there had to be something somewhere in there and that because it might be gone in a week I needed to find it and watch it now instead of the movies I already owned. Insufferable.
There's a part of me that feels so free knowing I'll never again have to suffer through Hulu playing I swear to God the exact same three ads over and over and over and over and over again.
The best part is that people will just...give you entire sets of TV shows and movies now. They think they don't need them anymore. Every time I'm visiting family or friends, if I comment on how I "really like" a show or a move I see they have, they're likely to just respond with "Oh really? Go ahead and take it, we just watch it on Netflix now. Keep it."
(Thank you Mom, for the "available on Peacock" Twilight Zone collection, thank you college classmate for the "I totally saw it on Fubo" special edition Event Horizon Blu-Ray, and especially thank you to whoever was trusting enough of their Paramount+ subscription to donate ten seasons of Frasier to my local Goodwill.)
