📚 Dash & Lily’s Book of Dares by Rachel Cohn and David Levithan

I thought this book was sweet and charming. I have to admit that I watched the Netflix series before reading the book. But I obviously liked the book better! My biggest grief with the Netflix show is that the two they chose to play Dash and Lily don’t fit what I imagined while reading the book, but that’s really not a big deal. Anyway, so, yeah, I thought the book was sweet, and I liked it a lot.

Rating: 7/10

If I had a nickel for everytime I read a book series where 'The Joys of Gay Sex' had a not insignificant impact on the progress of the story, and that series goes on to be the most emotionally impactful and life changing series I've ever read......I would have two nickels...

Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

Merry Christmas ✨️

[celestialvoid-fanfiction]

Sterek Dash and Lily AU - Stiles loves Christmas but this year is the first year since his mum passed away that he’s sending the holiday alone, so he gets a notebook and decides to have some fun... He plans out a message and writes clues for someone to go on a scavenger hunt through the book store to decipher the message, and he left it on the shelf in the bookstore for someone to find.

Derek hates Christmas, this year Laura is on vacation with her boyfriend, Cora’s in Mexico and there’s no amount of money anyone could pay him to spend the holidays with Peter, so he’s spending his evenings at the local bookstore browsing the shelves for something to occupy his time when he comes across a notebook. At first he thinks it’s been shelved wrong but soon realises there’s something written in it. 

Curious, he starts the scavenger hunt and very soon, the book is passed back and forth between the two of them without them actually meeting, and they start to fall in love with the person they’re writing to.

begging for a Dash and Lily fan to write a fanfic where Lily comforts Dash over his parents. Like his dad is so awful and I just want Lily comforting him once, especially in the books. Like so far I've seen a bunch of librarians who hadn't met Dash before, provide more comfort/care when his dad is shitty than Lily has. So please, someone, write a fic, I beg of you. Bonus points if it's around the Christmas tree lighting or ice skating part !!!

I watched dash and lily again and a. Unexpected comfort, b. The last episode is simultaneously the best and the worst. I read the book either before or after i watched the show the first time too, and for the life of my i would not have expected this story to compel me so.

You think fairy tales are only for girls? Here’s a hint – ask yourself who wrote them. I assure you, it wasn’t just the women. It’s the great male fantasy – all it takes is one dance to know that she’s the one. All it takes is the sound of her song from the tower, or a look at her sleeping face. And right away you know – this is the girl in your head, sleeping or dancing or singing in front of…

do you dare? part one

pairing: remus lupin x female!reader

summary: it's christmas season at hogwarts, and remus lupin finds himself and his friends stuck inside the school for the holidays. when searching through the library, remus finds a book he hasn't noticed there before—a notebook—and the front reads one simple question: do you dare?

or remus and y/n give each other dares to complete through a notebook, not knowing who was on the other side of the pages.

or a remus lupin fanfic loosely based on the netflix show dash and lily

part two

Remus Lupin has never been a fan of Christmas.

In his personal opinion, Christmas has to be the most detestable time of the year. With everyone's fake cheer, the crowds of people at Hogsmeade searching for the perfect gift, and the students gathered around to decorate the giant tree at Hogwarts, Remus can proudly say he does not like Christmas.

He least favorite part of the holiday has to be couple confusing their Christmas spirit with being sickeningly in love, like his best friends are doing now. James and Lily have always been grossly obsessed with each other, that's something he is used to. But now, even Sirius and Peter have found people to spend the holiday season infatuated with, and Remus is finding every chance he can to escape from witnessing it. 

That's how he ends up here, stuck seventh wheeling the three couples in the Gryffindor common room. He has barely been listening to what the couples were saying, and has decided he's had enough of the love fest. He stands up, thinking he can get away with sneaking out without anyone noticing. He's almost at the door now, and he knows he's gotten away with it then, when suddenly—

"You heading somewhere, Remus?" 

Of course, if anyone were to notice Remus leave, it would be Lily Evans. He turns around, seeing her eyes looking towards him expectantly. Remus shrugs, "Was thinking about heading to the library, want to get a head start on studies before the new year," he replies.

Lily's eyes roll, "Remus Lupin, it's winter holidays! You should be enjoying the holiday season with us!"

Remus is about to respond, but Sirius speaks first, "Oh Lily, haven't you heard? Moony here is our resident Scrooge! He wants nothing to do with the holidays, and if I remember correctly, I heard him say he hates Christmas!"

Remus takes this opportunity to sneak out the door before anyone else can protest. He decides to actually go to the library, as anything is better than sitting in the common room at this moment. He searches aimlessly through the shelves, knowing each of them like the back of his hand. His fingers run across the books, and he recognizes the feeling of each spine from the many times he's done this before. 

Until, he doesn't. His fingers run across something he doesn't recognize, and he halts his steps. He looks at the book his hand has landed on, and notices the new, red leather book very obviously not meant to be placed on his shelf. Remus pulls the book from its slot, wondering what this book could be about. The back of the book is completely blank, just the cool, red leather to decorate. As he flips the book over, he sees the cover is garnished with one question.

Do you dare?

Curiosity fills him, and he flips open the book to find it's a notebook. On the first page of the notebook is a message, one that seems like it was meant just for him.

I've left some clues for you. If you want them, turn the page. If you don't, put the book back on the shelf and let someone else take a chance at the game.

Remus debates very briefly in his head on what he should do, and ultimately, he decides that the random hunt inside of the notebook has to be more fun than what he has been doing. So, Remus turns the page, and sees what clues could be awaiting for him. He reads the next message inside his head.

So, you've chosen to play. A revealing choice, I must say. Shall we begin?

Remus flips the page once more. The next page has eight empty blanks meant to be filled at the top of the page. His eyebrows furrow, and he wonders what this person might be wanting to learn from him. At the bottom, below the blank spaces, is another message from the person behind the pages.

A coded message. You can decipher it with the right books, but only if you can find them. Your first clue requires some heavy reading, look for the story on how Hogwarts was founded.

Hogwarts history is a book Remus is familiar with. It was one he read when he first arrived at the school, back in year one. He wanted to familiarize himself with the place he would be living, and learn more about how this place was started. So, with that in mind, Remus shuts the notebook and goes towards the aisle hosting the book he needs. He scans the books down the aisle, trying to remember where the book was located, until he finds it. A smile grows on his face, and he notices a quill stuck inside.

Remus flips to the page, taking the quill inside his hand, and notices two little words circled on the page. He opens the notebook back to the page he left off, and writes the two words inside the first two blanks. Are you...

"Am I what?" Remus speaks lowly to himself, wondering what this person could be asking. He looks to the next message, and reads it to himself.

Okay, maybe that was a bit too easy. Let's make this harder. Year two, required reading for Mcgonagall. 193rd page, second paragraph, 34th, 35th, and 36th words.

Again, Remus knows exactly which book he's searching for. He places The Founding of Hogwarts back on the shelf, and quickly moves to find his next book. In the Transfiguration section, he easily pulls out the book. He flips to the requested page, moves down to the second paragraph, and searches for the three words he's looking for. When he has them, Remus fills them into the next blanks before reading the next clue.

I'll stop with the books for now. I want to test you. Your next word is an adjective for someone without company. Which, I don't want to assume, but you might be feeling this way since you decided to play my game during the Christmas holidays.

Remus thinks for a second, but the words comes to his head rather fast. In the blank, Remus simply writes the word lonely. With only two blanks left, Remus checks out his final clue.

I'm feeling generous, so I am going to give you the seventh word: on. Now, for your final clue, it's rather simple. What holiday are we about to celebrate?

Remus write the seventh word in the blank, and doesn't have to think about his answer for the final clue. He writes the last answer inside the last blank, and feels accomplished at the work he did. Remus reads the sentence laid out in front of him.

Are you going to be lonely on Christmas?

Remus has found himself in the middle of the library now. His attention is pulled away from the notebook when the librarian says, "Mr. Lupin, I see you have found the notebook. I somehow knew it you be you to find the book. She worked very hard on that, you know."

"She's a she?" Remus asks, "Can you tell me who is she?"

The librarian shakes her head, "That's not how to play the game, Mr. Lupin. Good luck!"

Remus smiles to himself, and flips the page once more. He has one final message left, and he reads it to himself.

So, here we are. What happens next is up to you. Leave a message telling me how this time of year makes you feel. Leave the book where you found it when you're done, and don't wait to find me when I come to get it, that's against the rules. If I like your answer, you might get a response back. If you aren't scared.

Remus is smiling softly. "Oh, I'm not scared, Clue Girl. I'm hooked," He speaks quietly to himself, before shutting the book and heading in the direction of his dorm. 

Though he might have been dreading it before, Remus can definitely say that this years Christmas might be better than the past.
