disabled remus and reformed dickhead sirius.

sirius who has to LEARN to take care of remus, to not rush off, to not assume he can physically keep up. remus who uses a cane and sirius who at first is kind of embarrassed to be seen with him in public (because of his “never show weakness” upbringing), but who also immediately glares at anyone who looks funny at remus. sirius whose boundless energy both enchants and exhausts remus, who has to learn how to take care of his boyfriend when fatigue catches up with him. sirius who is forced to learn to be comfortable with the quiet (which is actually good for him). sirius who researches remus’ conditions (chronic fatigue, arthritis, problems that the doctors still can’t diagnose) to better learn how to help him. sirius who comes with remus to his appointments, or drops him off with a kiss, depending on how he feels.

remus who can sense sirius’ embarrassment, who snaps at him for it more than once. remus who softens when he finds sirius asleep as his laptop, fifty tabs open to different medical websites and forums. remus who can see how much his boyfriend is unlearning his own prejudice, and working to take care of him. remus who has never been taken care of so fiercely and purposefully, and who loves sirius for it.

Wolfstar Shopping At Tesco ( a.k.a Sirius having the time of his life because muggle shopping is so ‘cool’ and Remus being done with him and actually trying to get some shopping done 😭😭😭 )

Yall need to remember that no matter how popular a fic gets (even if it’s literally the most popular fic on ao3) it still goes against fandom etiquette to publicly hate on it or say that it’s bad. Those opinions belong in private conversations or in your private bookmarks, nowhere else. Fanfics are gifts that we aren’t entitled to, and we have to treat them as such.

Obscuro (April 3rd)

Word count: 511

@wolfstarmicrofic

“I drove all the way to our house before I realised that’s not where I wanted to go,” Remus says instead of ‘hello’, putting his keys on the designated tiny leaf-shaped plate near the Potters’  front door and the takeout on the kitchen counter. “I was in a trance the entire time, I think. So weird.”

“This is actually making me kind of annoyed,” Sirius says instead of ‘welcome back’, closing the thick, flimsy book he’s holding and putting it on the kitchen counter near the food. “I don’t even think that the people who wrote this know what they’re saying half the time.”

It occurs to Remus that they’re having two separate conversations. He kisses Sirius’ cheek.

“What’s your book about?” Remus asks, and then, “Why is it quiet in here?”

Sirius smiles. “Computers.”

“What?”

“That’s the answer to both your questions! This is James’ computer textbook, and it’s quiet because James, Albus and Lily are ‘binge watching’ a tv show, whatever that means.”

“It means they watch all of the episodes back to back,” Remus says, remembering Albus explaining it to him a few days ago. He picks up the textbook and flips through it. “Is there anything interesting in this?”

“It’s all interesting,” Sirius says. “And annoying. The authors really need to pick a damn lane and stick to it. I can't deal with the real-metephorical-real bullshit.”

Remus smiles and he sits down next to Sirius. “I feel like metaphors are the last thing I’d expect in a computer science textbook.”

 “Right?” Sirius says, turning toward Remus, smiling. Sirius’ hair is out of his face in a pretty bun. Salt and pepper hair suits Sirius like it’s never suited anyone before, but maybe Remus is a little biased. “I’m going to say something, you’re going to tell me whether they’re being literal or not.”

“Who’s they?”

“Doesn’t matter,” Sirius says, waving Remus off. “Okay, there’s this thing called ‘cloud computing’. Real or not?”

“I don’t think it’s in the actual clouds, whatever it is, so not real.”

Sirius nods. “Great! Now, what if I say the internet is in the ocean, real or not?”

“Is the internet the thing that tells us the things when we ask it?”

“I think so,” Sirius says after thinking for a second. 

“Okay. Then I say not real.”

“Except it is. The internet wires are on the ocean floors.”

Remus laughs despite himself. “What? Which ocean?”

“All of them,” Sirius says, also laughing. He gets up. “We should probably see what the kids are watching. Last time I watched something with them, I had to Obscuro everyone three different times.”

“You don’t say.”

“Everything is so graphic.” Sirius blinks. “I think we should babysit less. I’m feeling old.”

“We are kind of old, darling,” Remus says, and he laughs at how Sirius looks at him, unimpressed and trying not to smile. Remus continues, “Growing old is my favorite thing only because I get to do it with you.”

“Yeah, yeah,” Sirius says, smiling Remus’ favorite smile and kissing Remus’ temple. “Mine, too.”

Remus as fluttershy doodle because it’s my truth

[interstellarlyinlove]

when they began dating, remus realized regulus takes his to-do list very seriously. he would observe as his boyfriend — still in bed — would pull up a small notepad, make an imense list of everything he is doing during the day (everything! as in, meals and drinking x liters of water, putting the trash away, etc.), get up and attach the list to his fridge.

regulus would relish in checking off points from his list throughout the day and would always show remus that he completely everything before noon.

so, of course, remus would take advantage of the list. while regulus is not looking he writes down in his very funny looking handwriting points like "kiss my boyfriend" or "remember remus loves me very much" or "give remus a chocolate" at the end of the list.

everyday, regulus smiles at the added points and completes them all.

Sirius would literally get into a duel with someone for implying Remus isn’t cool. Meanwhile, Remus is in the corner, spilling tea on himself.

Rictusempra (April 2nd)

Word count: 766

@wolfstarmicrofic

They’ve gotten to a point in their all-nighter study session where they are retaining absolutely no information and everything is the most hilarious thing in the world. Remus can’t get himself to care that much, though. He’s been studying non-stop for the last few days and decides he could really use some 3 am fun with his friends. 

“Okay, okay,” James says, wheezing slightly, trying to catch his breath. “So, you’re stranded on an island, and there’s no magic–”

“Which is stupid,” Sirius interrupts, voice smooth and low because he’s tired. Remus decides that tired Sirius is one of his favorites right then and there. “Because why wouldn’t there be any magic? If we’re stranded there, then there’s magic.”

James shakes his head. “No, but what if there wasn’t, though?”

“I’m saying that’s impossible. Jamie, baby, you are magic. How could you be in a place that has no magic? You’re the source.”

“It’s a hypothetical, Sirius. What if– oh, thanks for calling me magic, by the way. You’re magic.”

Sirius grins. He turns to look at Remus who’s sitting across from the both of them. The Gryffindor common room is well and truly empty and Remus feels like they’re the only people left in the world, and it’s not a bad feeling at all. “What do you think, Re?” Sirius blinks. “You’re magic, too, Remus.”

Remus flushes slightly and he hopes it isn’t obvious. “You can’t apparate in Hogwarts,” he blurts.

James cocks his head to the side, his glasses crooked on the bridge of his nose “No, you cannot do that. You can’t conjure fool out of nothing or Rictusempra yourself–”

“Can’t you, really?” Sirius asks.

“No. I think it has something to do with you expecting it, so it does nothing. Kind of like how you can’t just tickle yours–”

Remus shakes his head, giggling. “I mean, there’s anti-magic magic. Like the anti-apparition wards here. So, for the sake of your argument, just say that there’s something like that on your island, James.”

Sirius throws a crumpled piece of paper across the table at Remus. “Don’t give him ideas to strengthen his arguments. He’s insufferable enough with faulty logic. Imagine how horrible he'd be if he’d started making sense– ouch!”

James pinches Sirius’ shoulder again. “Stranded on an island, no magic. What would you do?”

“Are there other people?” Sirius asks.

James thinks for a second. “Sure.”

“Who?”

“Who’d you want to take with you?”

“Remus,” Sirius says, then he flushes as well. Remus wants to kiss him like he’s wanted nothing else in his life. Usually, thoughts like this make Remus crash out a little bit, but he thinks he’s reached the level of tired that makes people unintentionally brave. Remus likes it.

Sirius continues, “And you and Lily and Dorcas. Marlene and maybe Regulus if he stops pretending I don’t exist.”

“Aw,” James says. 

“It’s no longer a stranded island if we’re all there, though,” Remus says, resting his head on the table.

“Guys, you haven’t even let me ask the question.”

“What is your question?” Sirius says.

“I think you already asked your question, James.”

James blinks. “No, I wanted to ask something else, as well. I promise it was a great question. I don’t necessarily remember what it is.”

Sirius snorts. “I wouldn’t survive on your magicless island, Jamie.”

“No?”

Sirius shakes his head, twirling his wand in his hand. “I don’t think I would do well with no magic. Thinking about not having this makes me shudder a little”

“I would do so well without magic.”

“Get out of here,” Remus says, raising his head and rubbing his eyes. “You wouldn’t survive without magic, James.”

“Take that back.”

“No.”

James glares at Remus. “We can bet on it.”

Remus raises an eyebrow. Sirius grins and says, “Yes! Are you in, Re?”

Remus nods, not really understanding what’s going on that well but he loves how Sirius’ voice sounds calling him ‘Re’ at who knows what hour of the night–

Sirius whispers an incantation under his breath and both Remus’ and James’ wands come flying to him. “No magic for a week. Your wands stay with me, and you should be honorable enough not to do anything wandless. And no magic means no magic. No map or potions or anything. Would you shake on it?”

James nods enthusiastically, holding out his hand for Remus. Remus takes James’ hand and shakes it firmly. Whatever, he thinks, we might as well do this. Remus looks at Sirius, grinning and tired, and he thinks this may be worth it just for that.

we need to stop collectively pushing the marauders as effortlessly cool kings of the school agenda

those boys had nicknames for each other

they had a group name

three quarters of them mastered an advanced transfiguration ritual at the age of fifteen (?)

they created the map which is something you can only assume dumbledore wasn't even able to do (because he absolutely would have if he could) - the research alone would have had them living in the library for years

fact is, those boys were massive nerds and i won't hear otherwise

(follow up - james absolutely did spend six years pursuing lily but it wasn't grand romantic displays and shouting across the great hall it was blushing and stumbling over his words)

Aparecium (Aprit 1st)

Word count: 674

@wolfstarmicrofic

Regulus realises, in the midst of the chaos all around him, that he really ought to learn to mind his damn business.

He’s self-aware enough to know that won’t happen any time soon, especially when it comes to things having to do with his older brother, but it's something he can work towards. Or try working towards. 

Regulus walks out of the parlour room and he spots Sirius almost instantly, sitting on the floor. Regulus walks up to him. “I didn’t mean for them to find it,” he says softly. 

Sirius looks up at him. “What?” The way Sirius looks when he’s home for the holidays always gives Regulus whiplash. This doesn’t feel like his brother at all. 

“Your notebook. I had it with me. I had it in my trunk. That’s how Bellatrix got it. But I didn’t give it to her. She stole it.” His sentences are clipped and short. He realizes that Sirius sucker punching him would be so much easier than whatever is currently happening for the both of them. Sirius wouldn’t hurt him, Regulus knows this even now, and Regulus doesn’t necessarily deserve to get off easy anyway. 

Sirius blinks, then shrugs. “I don’t care about the notebook, Reg.”

Regulus shakes his head. He wants to say so much. He’s self-aware enough to know he won’t say the half of it. He coughs. “I’m sorry, Sirius.”

Sirius shrugs again. “It’s okay.”

Regulus feels like he has to explain. He sits next to Sirius on the floor, mirroring his stance and leaning against the cobblestone wall. All of their cousins are in the parlour room and Regulus hears loud laughing and glasses clinking. He thinks about how to word his next sentence. “I never looked inside.”

“Yeah?”

“I didn’t read inside the notebook.” Regulus clears his throat. “I mean, I did flip through it, but I never performed an aparecium. I figured whatever you’d written must have been private if you’d gone to the length of using invisible ink, so I didn’t– I mean–”

Sirius raises an eyebrow. Regulus coughs again and continues. “I know that I did steal the notebook in the first place, so it is ridiculous that I am talking about respecting your privacy, but– I want you to know that I tried to. With everything but the actual stealing, I guess.”

Sirius grins. “Thank you, Reggie.”

Regulus doesn’t know what to do now. He nods and says, “Bellatrix sucks for reading it aloud, for what it’s worth.”

“I don’t care,” Sirius says, eyes honest. “I’m not ashamed of liking Remus, you know. I don’t care that they know.”

Regulus thinks, not for the first time, that Sirius must be the bravest person in the universe. “What if she tells him?” Regulus blurts. He doesn’t necessarily know where the question came from but it’s out there now. 

Sirius smiles softly. “Then she’d be helping me out. I haven’t figured out how to tell Remus yet and my crazy cousin doing it for me might actually be better than some of the ideas I’ve had.”

Regulus wishes, also not for the first time, that he could be more like Sirius. He hopes that Sirius can get as far away from this rotten family as he can get, even if that means Sirius getting away from him, too. 

“I think he likes you, too,” Regulus mumbles, getting up and dusting off his pants. His chest is starting to hurt and he has to get away from Sirius, now, before he says something stupid. “He looks at you funny, sometimes. Like you–” Regulus feels his face warm up. “Well, you know how.”

“Do I?” Sirius asks, getting up as well. He’s smiling in a way that actually does remind Regulus of his brother; bright and mischievous. 

“I’m sorry, again. I promise to leave your things be from now on. We should get back. Um. Good luck with Remus.” Regulus doesn’t wait for Sirius to reply. He doesn’t think he deserves Sirius’ forgiveness at all, but he’s glad he has it.

My soul loves domestic wolfstar so much. Give me sirius having beef with some lady from their neighborhood group and having remus defending him at their meetings. Give me remus waking up earlier every day so he can make the scrambled eggs just the way he husband loves. Give me them coming home early from a birthday party because they couldn't keep their hands off each other. Give me remus stealing sirius' shampoo because it smells like him. Sirius wearing moony's shirts to sleep every night. Christmas shopping traditions. Late nights laughing uncontrollably remembering their hogwarts' stories. Record collections. Fights about the mess in the kitchen. Capturing each other's first gray hair. Trips and adventures. Growing old together. Being happy.
