I‘m going on a two week relax spain vacation with my girlfriend and the only thing on my tbr is your fics (which i‘ve all read before) ((several times))

Gonna be great!

Oof, how lovely. Tell Spain I say hi!

As my favorite fic writer, I want to know if you have any favorite R/S headcanons?

Hope you’re well and someday feel inspired to bless us with more of your writing <333

Thank you. I can barely make a sandwich let alone do creative things at the moment but I appreciate the love!

I just wanted to drop a note and say that your writing is like a warm hug, and I can’t help but empathize (and cry. and laugh.) with all your versions of Sirius and Remus. I was curious - do you write in your day job?

Anyways - thank you for publishing your work for free and can’t wait for the next updates.

I write very nice reports about statutory compliance ;))))

Hi! I’m such a fan of your works, but I had to pop in and give some special love for one of my very faves, not just of yours, but fave fics: don’t forget the nights when it all felt right. It’s so, so well done, with the shifting timeline and James’s POV and that fantastic wolfstar yearning. I’ve read it again and again and just delight in so many turns of phrase. It’s…it’s grownup is what it is. And subtle. And funny as hell. Among many other things. I love it. Thanks for always turning out bangers.

I AM READING LANGUAGE LESSONS AND IT'S THE FIRST TIME I'VE READ A LONG FIC IN AN AGE AND I JUST... LOVE IT????

Also hi, hey. Let's be friends.

Hello, your fics are lovely and utterly brilliant! I’m not unconvinced you are secretly a published author.

also,.. a Wolfstar Titanic-AU written by you would be possibly the greatest piece of writing in the history of world literature…just saying <3 love ya mwah

Hello! You're so lovely, thank you.

I cannot believe two separate people dropped in to say I should write a Titanic AU! Maybe there's something to it!!

[wrapped-up]

a Titanic-AU wolfstar fic (where they both live I hope) from you would be the best thing ever 🙌

Oh, I can't do sad I'm afraid. In my version, Jremus would slide right on top of Rsirius and they would shag on the door thing.

[wrapped-up]

how r u?

I'm okay, thanks mate. Reasonably pregnant, so that's a mindfuck.

"How do you write such realistic dialogue-" I TALK TO MYSELF. I TALK TO MYSELF AND I PRETEND I AM THE ONE SAYING THE LINE. LIKE SANITY IS SLOWLY SLIPPING FROM BETWEEN MY FINGERS WITH EVERY MEASLY WORD THEY TYPE OUT. THAT IS HOW.

[wrapped-up]

are you as funny in real life as your fics? if so, any tips on how to become a cool person?

I think I am, like, moderately funny, yes.

But not cool. So very not cool.

[wrapped-up]

hello?? i love you???

Hello there! Hi!

[wrapped-up]

Thanks @mostlyoptimisticdinosaur - looks like I've got some reading to do!

I just finished writing all of your fictions on AO3 and the short stories on Tumblr — I am absolutely in love with your writing! You might just have become one of my favourite authors, ever. Reading your stories is so much FUN.

I will most definitely read anything new you’ll ever write but, until then, I was wondering do you have any fictions that are close to your heart that you would like to recommend? Thank you!

This makes my day (I'm so happy the tumblr shorts are still floating around/being read! <3)!

But FIC RECS - oh boy, do I! I've been meaning to do a Wolfstar rec list so thank you for the ask! I think I have somewhere in the realm of 300+ faves but I have done my absolute best to narrow it down to the ones I reread the most when I have the craving for...

Feeling like I am surrounded by found family... Ever Thus - @wrapped-up This fic has THE best slice of life, early-20s-lost-but-hey-at-least-we're-all-lost-together vibes, along with an quietly pining Sirius.

The PB to my J - aqua_myosotis If you ever wanted to feel like you were part of the world's best uni groupchat, look no further.

Like emptiness in harmony - AngWrites I love a good Hogwarts-era story. And also this has the line “YOU NAMED YOURSELF WOLF WOLF?” to explain Remus Lupin's name and therefore I cherish it.

Go East - @xinasvoice The relationships between R/S and the relationship they build with Tonks (who is Sirius' ward) are treated with equal importance and the cozy family they create is so, so satisfying.

Axe and Sword - @allhalloweve A fantasy road trip adventure with the whole gang - SO creative, and the found family vibes are impeccable. That overwhelming falling in love chemistry... Pettyverse - lunchbucket I cannot express how much I love the contrast between the WORST day (jury duty! argh!) and the butterflies of bumping into a highly competent and hot lawyer. I would turn this into a movie if I could. Role Models - @mblematic I LOVE getting to see Wolfstar's obvious pining through the eyes of others and this is done SO well (and is laugh out loud funny!).

You can teach an old dog new tricks - Orphaned Funny, sexy, and full of flirty banter - in which Sirius learns how to use Skype and immediately tries to use it to woo Remus on missions.

This is Canon and NOBODY DIES because NO The Prodigal - MidniteMarauder In which Sirius returns from the veil and gives Molly Weasley several heart attacks. It's cozy, and funny, with an established relationship and so much I'M SO GLAD YOU'RE NOT DEAD BUT I AM A REPRESSED PROFESSOR TRYING NOT TO SHOW IT yearning. Remain in light - @veeagainsttheday As far as I'm concerned, this is exactly what happens after Book 5. Beautifully intricate writing - every chapter unfolds like its own short story and together make a perfect conclusion to HP. Boys of Crowhill - @tbll57-blog The best reimagining of the whole series, if Remus had been there from the start, and how that affects every relationship and decision Harry makes. It's gripping, imaginative and so well written.

Far From Here - SwissCheesePlant Wherein Wolfstar take Harry far away from the war. It includes Harry finding out they're together and baking them a cake with “How Dare You Lie to Me?” in the colours of the rainbow. 10/10.

I need the hurt for the comfort The Incomplete Recounting of Four Nonconsecutive Tuesdays in the Spring of 2002 - BrujaBanter In which Wolfstar finally go to couple's therapy, post-canon. It's witty, so emotionally satisfying, and I love the banter.

Not Ever - Orphaned Wherein Remus loses his memory and Sirius has to deal with him not remembering they were together, but the love is still in there.

The Winter of Discontent - Rosie_Rues Exes to lovers, in which Sirius and Remus join the aurors together, and fight against their mutual attraction during the war while also trying to keep each other safe. The amount of pure yearning? *CHEF'S KISS*

I yearn to see the world and this fic will take me there Marauder's Rest - Coriaria Set in New Zealand! Sirius raising Harry and running an inn! Shy backpacker Remus falling in love with the whole family! A little angsty, a LOT sweet, I've read this more times than I can count.

Rourke - sreka I cannot express how much I want to go to Antarctica after reading this fic. Quiet, soft, and just beautiful.

Indiana Lupin and the Search for the Conqueror - nerakrose Globe-trotting! Mysteries! Indiana Jones inspired! This plot is a blast.

Are you okay with your fics being hand-bound (for personal use only and not for profit?) Thank you for all your amazing works they bring me so much joy <3

Sure, go for it!

[wrapped-up]

Hello! I hope this doesn’t come across as pushy because I just love all your wips and was wondering if you still have plans to finish them? Either way I just love your writing <333

Hullo there!

Not pushy at all. I definitely am planning on finishing them but life has thrown me a rather large curveball so some of my focus has shifted of late!

Is there one you would like an update on? If so, I can make sure to prioritise it.
