I’m finally getting to finish this @late-nights-and-fairy-lights! Sorry it took so long. Also for anyone reading this, I clarified that “did recs” meant “fic recs”. We’re blaming lack of sleep here, ok? lol
I read a lot of fic and I do aim for fluff a lot, but these are some gorgeous fics I’ve read recently that I hope you enjoy!
Howl by Shiftylinguini: (first part of an amazing four part series, read them all!) “Don’t talk about her,” he snarls, and Sirius knows what will happen from here. He likes to bait Remus, snark that it isn’t the wolf but him that comes crawling to Sirius every moon, but he knows it’s only partly true. There’s an animal there, just under the surface, an animal with a man’s desires. He can hear it in the way Remus can’t catch his breath, feel it in the way he leans down to run his open mouth over Sirius’s neck, inhaling his scent.
“All the promises - vows under the covers.We would play pretend, my love,But it was real. To me.”
The Wedding Date by FivePips @marlenemckinn: Sirius wants to avoid a potential set up by Effie for James and Lily’s wedding. Luckily, their old friend (and Sirius’ former crush) Remus is moving to London.
We Can Be Heroes by @blitheringmcgonagall: (This one is marked with primary Jily, but Wolfstar is extremely prominent. WIP but updates frequently) Sirius Black seemed to have broken the Marauders after revealing Remus Lupin’s secret to Snape, James Potter was failing miserably in what his friends called Prongs Pursuing Evans, and Lily Evans was realising she may have misjudged certain people. Voldemort and his followers were beginning to show an interest in the Marauders. All was not well…
Buy the Stars by WiltedDaisy @bringblackback: Sirius Black, respectable pureblood patriarch and heir to the Black family fortune, has a wife and three children at Hogwarts. Defence Against the Dark Arts professor Remus Lupin wrestles with the aging wolf inside of him. When Black offers him a hand, Remus reluctantly takes it.
Our Version of Perfect by Orphan_Account: When a drunk lorry driver hits the Potters and sends them into a coma, Sirius is certain his entire life is over. Unable to do anything but sit by their bedsides and wait, he isn’t sure he can get through it. But when Teddy Lupin is admitted to the PICU, Sirius’ entire world is turned upside down as he meets the young boy’s father, and discovers that maybe there’s plenty more worth living for.
Marauder Ink by @jennandblitz: Sirius Black and James Potter are successful and famous tattoo artists. Their manager Lily insists they hire a piercer to cover their busy schedules, and Sirius does not approve of that idea even slightly. (This fic is now completed, but there’s still sequel action going on at Marauder Ink 2: Black and Grey)
Midday Train to London by xinasvoice: (not really angsty but really good!) A newfashioned vanilla romance set in the poly and kink communities.
Hope you enjoy these, love!
