Summary
Remus Lupin has a congenital heart defect, and is awaiting an available heart for transplant. Sirius Black is an immature twenty-something, living with a couple other immature twenty-somethings. Both are obsessed with the same obscure book, which becomes their coping mechanism for navigating their instant and torrid love affair. Life, they discover, is precarious at best, but from each other, they learn how to make it something that's worth living.

Summary
COMPLETED
Sirius always tends to go off radar during the breaks, and this summer, things aren't any different, even while he and Remus hooked up the evening before the break.
His friends soon find out, though, that Sirius’s homelife is a lot more messed up than he ever let on. They set on to show him he doesn't have to feign a perfect life to be loved and accepted.
But just as things are getting better, something unthinkable happens, and the Marauders are faced with the frightening possibility of losing Sirius forever.- Language:

Summary
Remus Lupin has been in love with Sirius Black for ages, so when an unexpected opportunity arises for him to have everything he's been dreaming of, he can't possibly say no (even if it's only for one night). After all, it's just an experiment. Nothing really needs to change.
Right?
In which Remus and Sirius are tragically terrible communicators, Peter just wants to help, and James is forced to reconcile with the fact that his friends may, in fact, be idiots.

Summary
Final exams, confusing late night library excursions, gratuitous chocolate eating…
But they’re just friends, right?
***
The joy of watching Remus speak is more than subversion from his upbringing – the moments when Sirius can do it like this (undisturbed and unnoticed)? They rebuild something in him he thought irreparably broken. He wants to fall asleep to it, make a cassette and listen to it on repeat, pretend he’s struggling with the material just to have Remus read to him.
