    Summary

    It was August 30th, 1997, and summer was slowly undoing itself, like a knot he had failed to tie tight enough. Remus didn’t know it yet, but everything was slipping through his fingers...

    Following a summer in spent with his friends in Manchester after finishing their GCSEs, Remus' adoptive parents unexpectedly inherit a house in London. That puts in a real spanner in the works for Remus' plans to spend the rest of time getting high with his friends and working as an apprentice electrician at his mate's dad's company. Suddenly, Remus is catapulted half-way across the country and (half)-coerced by his adoptive parents into attending the local sixth form college. Remus was doing perfectly fine keeping everything hidden inside of himself back in Manchester, but from the moment he first sees Sirius, it all starts tumbling out.

     LONG fic in progress. A teenagers in the late 90s AU documenting summer 1997- the end of 1999.

    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?”

    Bookmarker's Notes

    This fic is ded one of my big loves. It's genuinely so immaculate at portraying how hard and dire Remus's situation would have been after it all went down and it shows how well he got it together for Harry and I just uh.
    I think it needs to be taken into account how harmful some of the behaviour enacted by his friends was upon him as a werewolf as much as they probs meant well, they obviously did things wrong and took it out against him. I do hate the idea tho that Sirius being a Black is the same. Like being part of the Black family in magical society was Def a privilege.
    10/10 you will never recover after reading

    Summary

    “Cheers, really.” Remus repeated. “I would have gotten you something had I known. I just never expected—”

    He stuttered, and Lily gave him another smile.

    “Well, I’d say being friends is good enough. That can be my gift from you this year.”

    Remus blinked, seeming to be at a loss for words. His shock made Lily’s anxieties creep back.

    “We are… friends, aren’t we?”

    The shock left, and Remus shook his head. He gave her a tentative smile.

    “‘Course, if you’ll have me.”

    or

    Lily Evans can never quite seem to fit in. She doesn't expect a scholarship to a prestigious boarding school to change that.

    Summary

    "Vi rarely got turned down, and if she did it was by someone she had already slept with or a friend of someone she had already slept with. But for once, she was fucking glad she had been. Caitlyn Kiramman was officially off limits."

    Basically they're all in college and they're all a mess. I’m using this as a way to cope after Season 2 of Arcane because they all deserve a happy ending. Fuck you, Riot (Not really. Thank you for the amazing series 😭). Anyway, please enjoy. Also, the lovely @kordrynkreations on IG beta read for me. She's an incredible artist, so please go check her out!

    P.S. Current estimated chapter count is 15. This may change throughout the fic.
