Hi wonderful people,

I am searching for a fic I read on AO3 maybe a year ago but I don't remember when it was posted.

It takes place after Hogwarts. Draco lives in a place that he either shares with Pansy, Greg and Blaise,or they visit a lot. What I remeber very distinctly is, that Draco is very, very anxious and tends to act all manic when the anxiety hits. In one scene, Harry is visiting and Pany, I think, is very angry while Draco is manically baking a (red velvet?) cake after he reads about dating-rumours of Harry in the papers. He thinks Harry is keeping Draco a secret because they only meet at Dracos place but Harry tells him that all his friends know about their relationship. Harry always visits to make Draco more comfortable because of his anxiety.

I hope this is enough information. Thank you :)

11 and 13 for the writers ask, please 😊

11. Do you believe in the old advice to “kill your darlings?” Are you a ruthless darling assassin? What happens to the darlings you murder? Do you have a darling graveyard? Do you grieve?

Admittedly, I had to look up what "kill your darlings" means, but I think yeah, I do. Usually, it has to do with pacing problems so I end up cutting whole scenes, but sometimes it's just paragraphs that I love, but ultimately don't contribute anything important. Whenever I have to cut something it always makes me sad, and I try to keep it in some form, especially if it's whole scenes, because you never know when it could spark a whole new idea, or just be a little random snippet to share later down the line.

13. What is a subject matter that is incredibly difficult for you write about? What is easy?

I don't know if I actually have any subject matter that's difficult for me to write. I guess horror/spooky? Like, I had the hardest time writing But Now I See for Fireside Tales. Coming up with the idea was easy enough, but actually getting the words out in a way that did the idea justice... I'm usually very straightforward with my writing, so writing something that was purposely vague and more atmospheric was like pulling teeth. I think I spent longer on that 2k fic than I did writing half of Queries. As for easy, I think writing pining and mild hurt/comfort flow the easiest for me. If I can write a scene in which one character is crying about something (whether it be a failed test, like in Everyday That I'm With You, or because your evil stepmother locked you in an attic, like in A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes) and gets swept into a hug by another character, I absolutely will do it. Actually, thinking about it, maybe just writing really great hugs is the thing that comes easiest to me 😆

Ask me questions from this list!

[goodboylupin]

🍬💕 Good day to you 😊 I would like to have a candy-heart, please.

Thank you so much for sharing the fun idea with all of us!!!

Happy to!

I give my great big box of candy hearts a shake...

I open it up to pull one out for @anemonenemerosa and see the inscription...

WIP Tag Game

Alright guys here it is, all my active WIP. Thank you @beedragony for the tag – I love you ❤

Two Worlds Apart: I am actually starting back on this fic today after a bit of a hiatus. The first half is already on AO3 but if you are unfamiliar, it is a jeddy fic. The premise is Harry raised his kids in the muggle world and homeschooled them so James never knew about Hogwarts or his cousins or his god-brother. Also he is a pro-footballer and closeted gay. On the other side, Teddy has grown up to be the Wizarding World’s most famous musician but he is feeling jaded and unfulfilled. When Teddy ventures into the muggle world he runs into James and spills the whole secret. Things take off from there and each chapter alternates between James and Teddy’s point of view.

Forever Bound: This is a short scorbus fic on it’s second draft. This is basically my obligatory forced bonding fic and I plan on collaborating with @beedragony on later drafts because I really like when we write together and also this was just a lot of me projecting us on to poor Scorpius and Albus. I plan to take my time on this one and use it to really develop my writing skills.

Untiled Snowed In Fic: This is the fic inspired by the events of February 14, 2021 AKA The Great Texas Freeze. I have what might loosely considered to be an outline and a couple paragraphs written. Oh! And this one is a Renga fic.

In addition to those three, I have a couple fics plotted out. A jeddy one and an ice age one (both with @beedragony) and also another long drarry fic. I also have some ideas for a couple aspec fics with wolfstar and Ancel/Berenger. Oh! And also a Perciver fic that I would like to write someday. And then a long long list of plot bunnies that may or may not make it off the notes app on my phone.

Lets see,,, I will tag @ais-for-alex, @nerdherderette, @blue-rose-smalls, @avaeryn, @anemonenemerosa

I'll leave it there and of course no pressure tags.

[mooncat457writing]

This was cute!

Oops sorry!! I just assumed with oknutzy! Maybe 17 for Wolfstar 🥰

No worries, anon! Since your request was already written by @mooncat457writing (read it, it’s sooo good) and no other prompt of the list was simliar, I thought of a new one and wrote something for you. I hope you ike it!

"The door fell shut behind me while getting the mail. Now I'm stuck outside on a windy October day"

The bright side of locking yourself out 

It was 1 pm when the insistent ringing of the doorbell jerked Sirius out of his dreams. He grumbled for a few moments before his brain caught up and reminded him that he'd ordered a replacement for the broken gear-belt of his motorcycle. And Sirius really needed to get the bike repaired 'cause taking the tube to and from work was just the worst. So, he jumped out of bed and raced to the door of the building – there's no way he's missing the mailperson! Tough luck, Sirius was just in time to see the backlights of the delivery-truck disappear behind a corner.

"God, damnit!" He cursed loudly, mentally just warming up for a full-on rant when a particularly forceful wind-gust shoved half a ton of leaves in Sirius' face and caused an unfortunate bang behind his back.

No. Please no. Slowly, as if keeping off looking might undo what the dreadful noise promised, Sirius turned around, finally staring at the firmly closed door. It is just now that he realised that he's not only stuck outside on a rather unpleasant mid-October day, no, he's stuck outside barefoot, only wearing his pyjama bottoms and a worn shirt. No phone, no keys. It began to rain, no umbrella. What. A. Day.

Just two months ago, Sirius still lived with James and that wouldn't have been much of a problem. Back in the day, James was still writing his final assignment for his degree and stayed at home all the time.But since he graduated, found himself a paying job and moved in with Lily, Sirius lives alone for the very first time in his 25 years on this planet. And while he loved Lily dearly, Sirius couldn't always stop himself from feeling a bit abandoned and lonely, which was ridiculous, of course. Since they got together, James and Lily never let any doubt creep in that Sirius was anything but loved and treasured by both of them.

But the sentiment was of no use just then. In that moment, he needed to find a pragmatic solution. What does one do, trapped outside with no phone, no keys and no shoes? Sirius sighed in resignation. One does walk to the next cafe, beg them to use their phone without coming off as a complete nutter and call James to rescue him.

About five steps from the door, Sirius stopped dead in his tracks, quest forgotten. Walking right up to him was his neighbour from upstairs, the most intriguing person Sirius has ever met, or almost met, seen that they had never talked before.

The guy seemed very unassuming the few times he saw him in the stairway with his knit sweaters and washed out jeans. He was very quiet in the mornings as if he unknowingly considered that Sirius, as a bartender, worked during the nights and really needed his mornings to sleep. During the afternoon however, enjoyable music wafted down through Sirius' open windows together with the delicious smell of freshly cooked food.

The neighbour -Lupin, it said on the mailbox- stared at Sirius with wide eyes for a moment before he stepped closer, holding his umbrella over both of them.

"Erm." The other man said instead of greeting him.

"Please don't ask." Sirius implored him, completely done with this day already. But then again, Lupin had a nice voice.

"Right", Lupin laughed, "You live in the basement, right? Black? I'm going to ask anyway... aren't you cold?"

Not what Sirius expected to be asked. Naturally, his response was eloquent, he was absolutely not caught off guard, "Uhh -yeah, I live here. And- and I'm cold... but I thought you were-"

"-going to ask why you are out here?" Lupin laughed again, a really nice sound, "You clearly locked yourself out. No one goes around in the rain in October like this. Want to come in to mine? Dry off and call someone?"

With that he looked pointedly at Sirius, who took the glance as a clue to have a look at himself. So, summed up, he was drenched, with dirty feet and unkempt hair. Not the first impression he wanted to make on his neighbour. He's a proper adult now. Anyhow, this was by far his best option "That would actually safe my day."

Without another word, Sirius was led upstairs, offered a warm shower and some soft clothes, which were a bit too big for him (Lupin was at least half a head taller than himself). Clean and dry, Sirius sits in Lupin's little kitchen for his next task: calling James, who couldn't leave work for another three hours, meant that Sirius either waited for another four hours or paid 600 pounds for key-service to open his door, which he found out in the next call. He got a string of curses off his chest and was met with an astounded look of Lupin, who had poked his head though the door. Today, Sirius was impressively good at presenting himself at his worst.

"I'm sorry." He mumbled, not looking at his generous neighbour.

"Nah it's fine." Said one just shrugged, "What did your friend say?"

"Another four hours or 600 pounds." Sirius supplied, feeling a little miserable.

"Oh, unfortunate. Do you want to wait here? I have some work to do but you can hang out if you want."

"No, thank you. That would be too much" It really would.

"No. Really, it's no bother. I wouldn't offer if it wasn't alright." Lupin waved him off, "I'm Remus, by the way. And before you ask: Yes, Remus like in the Roman mythology"

"Nice to officially meet you, Remus, like in the Roman mythology." Sirius bowed mockingly, "I'm Sirius, and before you ask, yes, like the star and yes, I've probably heard all of the serious-jokes in existence by now."

With introductions out of the way, Sirius was sat on the big and comfortable couch in the living room with a nice cup of milky tea. He had no idea what to do now and felt a bit awkward, but his neighbour seemed unbothered by his surprise-guest.

"Sorry to be such a bad host but I have a bit work to do, I didn't get to do last night. If you like, feel free to take whatever book sparks your interest from the shelves." Remus apologised and put on some quiet music over his phone while settling in a cosy armchair across the couch with a stack of papers on his lap. It was only then, that Sirius realised how good-looking Remus was. His hair, light brown, wavy and a bit shaggy was falling slightly into his bright hazel eyes, focused on the papers in front of him. Suddenly, Remus huffed, scrunched up his slightly crooked nose (dusted with freckles that spread over his cheekbones) and lifted his left hand to his thin-lipped mouth to gnaw at his thumbnail.

"Displeasing literature?" Sirius heard himself asking before he could check the question in his mind for stupidity.

"You have no idea." the other man grumbled, "That one actually wrote that the inhabitants of Egypt are the mummies!"

Sirius couldn't help but bark a laugh at the affronted tone of Remus' voice,

"So, you're teaching history?"

"Yeah." Remus sighed and plucked a red pen from the little table beside him and began vigorously scribbling onto the paper.

The conversation felt to be over for now as Sirius' host seemed, indeed, quite busy. So, Sirius took up the offer to have a look at the bookshelves lining three walls of the room. The carped felt warm and soft under his bare feet while he strolled along the shelves. Quickly he recognised several of his favourites among the countless books and when his eye caught on The Little Prince, he couldn't resist to take it with him back to the couch.

When he was settled again, Remus looked up to see what Sirius had picked and smiled around a soft hum "I've read so many books and this is still one of my favourites."

Sirius couldn't help but smile back. "Mine, too."

From then on, they sat in a far more comfortable silence than before, both engulfed in their literature. Now and then, Remus huffed or snorted and shared some of the more entertaining mishaps of his students. It felt like they've been spending their afternoons together like this for years. Sirius was simultaneously at peace and properly creeped out.

After a while. Remus got up and returned with a fresh cup of tea for both of them. Steeped for exactly long enough, with the perfect amount of milk in it.

"It's wild that I've been living here for a little over two months and we barely even saw each other, isn't it?" Sirius commented, cradling his new cup in his hands while Remus got once again comfortable in his armchair.

"No, not really." The other man supplied with a slightly sad smile, "See, I teach evening classes from around 7 pm to midnight, get home around 1 am and because I'm an absolute night owl, I usually do my grading and preparations right after until 4 or 5 and then sleep 'till noon. And while I thrive in my rhythm, it's a bit hard to meet, or just come across, people... or get to go out for breakfast. It's silly but I love breakfast and until I get up, most places have switched to the lunch-menu already."

What are the chances. "And here I thought that you were so quiet in the mornings because you are psychic and just know that I sleep during that time." Sirius couldn't help the chuckle bubbling up his throat at the puzzled expression of the man across him. "I'm a bartender and work from 8 to 3 in the morning during the week and until 5 on Fridays and Saturdays." He elaborated, "after that I'm often too riled up to go directly to sleep, so I often go to bed around 6 and sleep until 1."

Remus just stared at him. "Our schedules are nearly identical."

Sirius opened his mouth to reply when the sound of the doorbell interrupted them. Remus got up to open the door to a hurried James, who handed Sirius the spare-keys, kissed his cheek and stormed off again.

"So, this was James. Is he your boyfriend, then?" The cosy atmosphere dissolved with the appearance of a wary look on Remus' face.

"Nah. He is my best friend, practically brother. I know, kissing is rather uncommon between two male friends, but we've been doing that since we met fourteen years ago, and I don't give a shit about convention." Sirius explained with a fond smile on his face.

After that, they parted rather quickly as both men needed to get ready for work, but a lot still lingered in the air, unsaid. His shift went over much too slow for Sirius while he brooded over the change in the atmosphere at the end of his stay with his neighbour.

The next day, Sirius woke up with a plan. A potentially humiliating plan, but worth the risk. He got up much quicker than usual, fired up the oven and began preparing. Around 12:30 Sirius knocked at his neighbour's door and was met with a sleepy Remus in pyjamas.

"Hey- erm... good morning! Here are your clothes!" Sirius began far too loud. All he achieved was a furrowed brow on the other man's face.

Get a grip, Black! "Uhh...OK. Listen, I really like you. Would you like to have a breakfast-date with me?" He tried to put on a winning smile while lifting the tray in his hands a bit.

Remus, who had blushed furiously during Sirius' rambling, blinked at him once before a wide grin spread on his face and he stepped aside to let Sirius and the warm croissants in.

2022 Fic Goals! ✍🏼

Thanks for the tag @anemonenemerosa !!! Can't wait to see what you write in the new year!

Not to copy but you made some good points so my goals may sound a bit similar but...

1. I'd like to get a few chapters ahead in a fic before starting to post it. I've never done that and I think it'd be a good way get into chaptered fics since that's a new thing for me.

2. I'd like to finish my first chaptered fic, Scandals, Salvia Sunshine, and Second Chances, since I've been on hiatus from it for a while now but I really want to get to share a lot of scene ideas I had for it that I think will be really cool.

3. I want to work on writing more regularly while also not beating myself up if I don't publish anything for a while. I'm always working on stuff and hitting POST or not doesn't diminish the work I did, even though it looks like I haven't done anything in a while.

I'll tag a few people if you're interested in sharing your goals too! Happy New Year!

Day 6

Title: What a fun coincidence By: @anemonenemerosa​ | Anemone_nemerosa Rating: T Prompt: B5 Summary: When Sirius steps in a cammy little coffee shop for his dare, he has no clue what will hit him. James view on how Sirius and Remus got together in this Universe. Word Count: 8k Tags: Alternate Universe - Coffee Shops & Cafés, Meet ugly - I guess, james potter pov, Good Peter, Awful drinks, Barista!Remus, dares, Alternate Universe - Everyone Lives/Nobody Dies, Marauders Fest 2020 Extract: Dearest reader, The following story is probably the dumbest that has ever happened, including Caligula's war against Poseidon, Australia's war against birds, and the car crash involving the only two cars in Ohio 1895. Maybe you better put the book back, too. It gets embarrassing. Still here? Alright. It all began with a grande bulletproof latte with soy milk, extra whipped cream, and 2 pumps each banana and peppermint—the most hideous drink Peter and I were able to come up with. But I'm getting ahead of myself. LINK

Title: More than enough By: @padfootdreams | padfootdreams Rating: T Prompt: B42 Summary: Written for the Marauders Fest 2020. Promt: After a full summer of not hearing anything from Sirius, the other three Marauders decide to break him free from 12 Grimmauld Place. Word Count: 2.6k Tags: Aftermath of Violence, Implied/Referenced Child Abuse, Friendship Extract: James hadn’t received a single letter from Sirius all summer, nor had Remus or Peter and they were now halfway into August. When the other three Marauders had left Sirius with his mother and brother on the Platform 9 ¾ in June they had been hopeful that this summer would be better than the last one. Surely, they hadn’t played quite as many pranks during their fourth year, compared to third year. Surely, Sirius hadn’t received quite as many Howlers as last year, and he had somehow continued to receive top grades, even in, as Sirius himself said “the more boring subjects”. James was, pardon the pun, seriously worried. LINK

Title: hold me close(r) By: @darklordsaron | darkestlordsaroon Rating: M Prompt: B25 Summary: Plagued by nightmares, Sirius finds an unexpected source of comfort in Remus. Word Count: 2.5k Tags: Nightmares, Emotional Hurt/Comfort, Past Abuse, Crushes, Implied/Referenced Homophobia, First Kiss Extract: He trudges over to the window to pour himself a glass of water. He rests his head against the cool stone of the wall and gazes out over the grounds, trying to remind himself he’s here , he’s at Hogwarts. He’s safe. The light of the near-full moon spills over the front lawn, dyeing the grass silver and sparkling in the Great Lake. Sirius closes his eyes and thinks that in just a couple of days they’ll be running through the grounds, wind in their fur and not a care in the world. He finishes his water and turns back to his bed, only to see that the curtains around Remus’ bed are cracked open and Remus is quite awake, gazing at him through the gap. “You okay?” LINK

[lostdrarryfics]

Hi, thank you so much for helping all of us! I'm searching for a fic that I read about a year ago on AO3. It was finished and the rating was either explicit or mature. The fic is post-war and Harry is a werewolf. Whether Draco is a creature or not, I can't remember. It was a get-together fic and dealt a lot with Harry's changed needs. He really needs his family close, especially around the moon. I remember that smell was important and that Harry's wolf saw Ron as his second in command or something. Also, there are suppressants that keep him from changing during the full moon but make him feel miserable and in a lot of pain during the time. I think I remember a detail in which Harry comes to the Burrow and George is there and they hug because Harry needs closeness. Could also have been Bill. I hope you can find it. Thank you :)

Fic Writer Interview

Thanks for the tag, @here-is-thegreatmoon (i think @anemonenemerosa too!)

Name: raquel

Fandoms: mostly HP, mostly wolfstar

Where you post: ao3

Most popular one-shot: Hit and Run, which is the first thing I ever posted to ao3. :) sirius hits remus with his car. they fall in love. this was from a tumblr prompt for “meet ugly” stories.

Most popular multi-chapter: i’ve only written one: Every Day I Wake Up and It’s Sunday it’s a hermione/oliver wood story, but you should check it out, at least for the 90s-era playlists. this was sort of born as a reaction to a few authors saying hermione listened to the spice girls. which, maaaaybe..., but given all the other choices, i doubt it.

Favorite story I’ve written so far:  just to link to more stories, there are two here: You Showed Me Love this is about remus and sirius meeting on a “walk of shame” another story from the “meet ugly” tumblr prompts. these are just really soft and floofy, and i like to write that best.

Fic you were nervous to post: Death’s Silver Lining. this was my entry for wolfstar games 2020. i came in as a pinch hitter, and didn’t expect to write anything. i wrote this story in about two weeks. i’ve never done a “games” and i am relatively new to wolfstar. so i was just hoping not to crash and burn.

How do you choose your titles: i like song titles. sometimes a phrase or an idea from the story will present itself. titles aren’t that bad. tags are terrible.

Do you outline: no? sometimes? once, on the back of a receipt!

Complete: everything on ao3 is complete. at least, for now.

In progress: see below.

Coming soon: a prequel and a sequel to Death’s Silver Lining! it’s gonna take a while because everyone’s milling around, and will not take their places. severus snape has stuck his abnormally large nose in... (just kidding. i’m kinda looking forward to writing him to be a better, more-well-rounded person. still an ass, but hopefully less of a cartoon).

Prompts: yeah, absolutely. please send me prompts. i would love it. Ten Bucks was a prompt!

As you can see, I have more ideas than time (this list isn’t even considering my WIP folder for my original writing), and yet I spend almost all day writing a kiss prompt that went from a cute little ficlet about a spin the bottle kiss to a 5K word smutty get together fic that is vaguely Christmasy which you can probably expect to drop sometime in the next few hours once I’ve run it through Grammarly (no beta, because I can’t be bothered to stop the hyper-focus train long enough to get one)

Aaaand I can’t think of 32 people to tag, so if you see this: tag you’re it. And please tag me if you post something.

When I first dreamed up the Candy Hearts Challenge back at Christmastime, I was hoping for a good time and good content, but I honestly didn’t think very many people would participate. I was wrong, and I’m over the moon about it! In a month and a half, this amazing fandom has produced 53 works, diverse in medium, genre, length and rating, by 41 creators — with even more on the way!

Running this mini-fest (which turned out to be not that mini at all) has been such a sweet experience. Thank you to everyone who took part in the Candy Hearts Challenge, whether directly or by supporting the wonderful creations that came out of it, promoting the rules post, or sending me much appreciated words of encouragement. Hope to see you all again next year!

Aww!! Brotherly love, engaged Wolfstar, and baby Harry all in one fic? My little ol’ heart can’t take it! 🥺🥺🥺

31 with Regulus. Gen or writers choice of a ship, just put that boy in a fugly sweater

Awwww right in the feels! I might or might not said something along that line in my past.

I did not spell- or grammar-check this... couldn’t be bothered.

31. You’ll pry this sweater out of my cold, dead hands. I don’t care how ugly it is.

The 25th of December had always been a joyful day for Sirius. He was staying with James, Lily and the most recent addition of little Harry at the Potters. Euphemia was already preparing all of his favourite dishes as every year, which usually left him curled up in a ball of no regrets on a couch by four in the afternoon. But this time, it was different.

This year would be the first year Remus and his parents were coming over. They had gotten engaged a few weeks ago and decided that it was high time to celebrate Christmas together as the big (and hopefully happy) family they would become in spring.

This in itself was reason enough to be a little nervous but then there was Regulus. Regulus, who had a habit of being a little grumpy during the holidays. Regulus, who had not met Remus' parents yet. It was not that Sirius was hiding his brother. He loved him but the boy got very flustered around new people, which greatly intensified some of his more peculiar quirks.

So, he decided to check on him before the guests arrived.

"Hey Reggie, are you ready to-" Oh no.

"What rendered you speechless? You never shut up." Regulus was not even looking up as he fixed the buttons of his shirt sleeves that poked out under-

"The rag that is draped around your upper body..."

Now he looked up. Fixing Sirius with his dark eyes through the mirror. While Sirius had grey eyes, like their father Regulus' eyes were as dark as his name and always gave the impression of boring into the soul of whoever he looked at. One of those quirks that made meeting the boy a bit of a challenge. "Yeah. Well, you can stop right there, the sweater stays in place."

"Please, it's more patches than original wool. Do you even remember what colour that thing had in the beginning?"

After following the wild flailing of Sirius' arms with his gaze, Reg looked down on himself, brows furrowed. "Brownish?"

"It was green." Got him.

"It's multitalented!" I need a new plan.

"Reggie, loveliest baby-brother! I promise, I knit you a new one if you do not wear that thing to the first Christmas with Remus' parents." Sirius tried sweet-talking his brother into an actual piece of clothing but failed spectacularly, if the look he received was any indication.

"I wore it every Christmas for the last seven years."

"And that exactly is the problem." The older brother sighed. How could one be so stubborn?

"You’ll pry this sweater out of my cold, dead hands! I don’t care how ugly it is." Regulus was getting louder now, even angry.

"Regulus..."

"You don't get it do you?"

No. Not really. "What?"

"You made this for me!" Regulus was pacing the room now and Sirius began questioning himself whether he missed something rather important in the broader picture.

"I remember. I also remember that it had always been rather lumpy and that I've spent quite a lot of time making you a bunch of others. Less worn-down ones, by the way."

"Yes, and I like them all but that was the first gift I got from you after you run away. I got it together with an invitation to stay at the Potters with you as long as I want. After a year of not speaking with you and angry glances across the great hall."

"Reg..." How could I forget that...

"This knitted hideousness showed me that you left that house, not me. And I will cherish it and everything that it stands for. Every. Single. Year."

The last part sounded like an actual threat, but all Sirius could do at that moment was grabbing his brother, clad in the visible sign that Reg loved him, even if he had odd ways of showing, and envelope him in a bone-crushing hug. "I love you, ugly mutt."

"You are the mutt." Reg mumbled. Words muffled from being forcefully pressed into a shoulder.

"Hugging without me?!"

"James, we're having a moment here, piss off!"That you so much for this prompt!! I  loved writing it
