  4. Summary

    Two years after the war, Sirius mysteriously returns from beyond the Veil, stepping back into Harry's crumbling life. Purposeless and drowning in alcohol, he clings to Sirius—his only real family. Meanwhile, Regulus—long thought dead—lives as a petty thief in France until news of his brother draw him back to London. Draco, tasked with reconnecting Regulus to his family, ends up entangled in unexpected emotions, longing for his own redemption. As these four men come together, Sirius begins transforming Grimmauld Place into a fragile refuge. But the mounting tensions and the booze overflowing within its walls threaten to undo it all. As always with the Blacks, family is a curse rather than a blessing—and it’s only a matter of time before it catches up to them.

    This series comprises of fics that are based on a roleplay featuring Sirius and Regulus Black, Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy. The fics contain different ships—variations of the four characters, often polyships. The common themes found in the works are guilt, shame, alcoholism, incest and kinks (often under or un-negotiated) such as intox kink, somnophilia, feedism and D/s dynamics.

    The works are ordered chronologically following the timeline in our roleplay.

    Summary

    When a new rugby pub opens next to his favourite bar, Sirius Black, a disgruntled MP in his forties, doesn't expect to visit. And he sure as hell doesn't expect to meet anyone of interest there—especially not a cheeky nineteen-year-old who seems to have the ability to change his whole world, if only he'll let him.

    Summary

    "I have to tell you something", Sirius says. "But you have to promise not to tell anyone."

    James leans forward, looking him intently in the eyes to let him know that he is listening. Sirius can't bear it. He stares into his hands and spits the words out of his mouth before he has time to second guess it.

    "My mum is poisoning me."

    For a while he can only hear James's breathing hitch. They both wait quietly for Sirius to say something, to undo the confession, but he can't.

    Summary

    Remus thinks of pulling his scarf up to cover his chilled face, but somehow he doesn’t seem to be capable of moving even an inch. It’s mockery or just an irony of fate that the water beneath him does. It keeps gurgling loudly as it’s taken down along the rapid current heading towards the North Sea.

    The water beneath him doesn’t care about his unwise choices, his betrayal, his scattered thoughts or feelings. It doesn’t even beckon him, which would surely be one of the choices if he were a main character in a book or a film, but unfortunately, this is just real life.

    His life.

    Which means: Remus has to live with the consequences of his own actions.

    -or-

    Remus is a canonic runner and this is a fic to honour the fact.
