    Summary

    The Captain - Edward ‘Ted’ Williamson - knows he’s not an easy person to love. After leaving the army and coming to terms with his own sexuality, he has found himself stuck in a rut, constantly making the same mistakes and falling in unrequited love with the wrong people. According to his therapist, he ‘self-sabotages’ by ‘burying his emotions’.

    A tragedy leads to a bittersweet opportunity for a fresh start in a sleepy village, in a cottage with a yellow door and honeysuckle growing up the walls. There’s a disarming amount of room to breathe, and the chance to reluctantly be befriended by the eccentric locals.

    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 - 1995

    This 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

    When Eva Stratt comes to recruit Dr. Ryland Grace for the Astrophage Crisis, she expects a useful expert. She does not expect a brilliant, tightly wound Little with a sunshine-yellow sweater, a locked-down regression, and a talent for becoming her problem.

    As the years of prep grind on and the project narrows toward Baikonur, professional necessity turns into something such more dangerous: trust, protectiveness, and the kind of care neither of them has time to want.

    Summary

    A crowd of small faces turned to look at him. Faces which James found it almost hurtful to look into. He shouldn't have felt the gut-wrenching pity that he did for the lads, but he couldn't help it. It was like staring into the sun

    ...

    “You love it here. Maybe it's us which won't work.” James spat the last sentence like a wounded animal lashing out.

    ---

    James doesn't remember much about his time at boarding school, only that he had despised it. When his husband, Anthony, secures a housemaster job looking after boarders at the local school, James' deeply-buried trauma explodes out of the ground.
