Peter Pettigrew and the Ghost of Christmas James by gonzoclock

Summary
Peter loves his friends. Which is why he had to kill them. And now, he's doing- well. Alright. Things didn't turn out exactly as he'd anticipated, but he's making it work. Living his life. As a rat. Mostly trying not to think about things.
Fine. Things could be better.
But he hadn't thought they'd get worse- which is exactly what happens when, three years after James died, he's come back. And for some godforsaken reason, he's decided to make that Peter's problem. (Okay, okay- Peter gets it. He did kill him.) Peter is sure that James is going to turn him in, ruin his life the same as Peter had ruined the Marauders.
But this is James. And he doesn't do any of that.
What was Peter expecting, really?
(Features: A lot of fighting, a lot of forgiveness, and a splash of necromancy. Alright, you got me- rather a lot of necromancy. But come on- we can't just have the ghost of Christmas James show up. Haven't you seen 'A Muppet's Christmas Carol'? There needs to be at least two more ghosts.)

Summary
“Regulus,” Sirius finally said, once he trusted he had his own voice under control, “has never once let me help him, even before I was a filthy blood-traitor. Why the fuck do you think I’d be able to save him now?”
Tomorrow night. Kreacher’s words throbbed inside his head. Regulus will die tomorrow night.
Sirius definitely wasn’t going to be getting any sleep at all this week.
Sirius thought he had cut all ties with his family, but when Kreacher shows up in his bedroom with a dire warning, he's hardly able to let his idiot little brother die. And when he learns about the Horcrux his brother was chasing, he's hardly about to let him take on Voldemort alone.
But getting tangled up in the House of Black again is not the best way to prove his innocence among an already-suspicious Order. Sirius has to walk a fine line if he wants to keep everyone he loves alive.
(This series is in chronological order but does not need to be read in that order. NO other stories in this series are required reading, but all are suggested to flesh out the backstory.)

Summary
“He… could… be ugly now?”
Remus snorts.
“You never know. A lot can happen to a guy in seven years.”
A lot can happen to an already plain werewolf in seven years. He can acquire more scars, develop grey streaks, wrinkle prematurely. But to the classically gorgeous force of nature that is Sirius Black? “He was in America, not Azkaban. And even then…”
***
In which everyone parted ways after the war, but a troubling discovery brings them back together.

Summary
LONG fic charting the marauders' time at Hogwarts (and beyond) from Remus' PoV - diversion from canon in that Remus's father died and he was raised in a children's home, and is a bit rough around the edges. Otherwise canon-compliant.
1971 - 1995This IS a wolfstar fic, but incredibly slow burn. Literally years. Long build up but worth it I promise!
PLEASE DO NOT COPY TO WATTPAD. SERIOUSLY, WHY??

Summary
James is sitting on the couch, Harry is next to him, giggling, and Lily's standing near the kitchen counter. James has his wand out, he's shooting colorful bubbles and Harry loves them, he's clapping excitedly -
The silver Patronus materialises in front of James so suddenly, that he can't even react.
"Peter's a death eater," Sirius's voice says. "He's sold you out. Voldemort's coming for you. Tonight. Run, Prongs."
Alternatively
Sirius gets expelled after the Prank in Fifth Year, and everything changes.Series
