Summary
“So you’re making housecalls now?”
“Don’t be a dick,” Derek rolls his eyes.
It feels like an eternity, the time they spend standing there, just looking at each other. Stiles feels bold, though, so he pushes off where he’s rested against the threshold and puts his arms out, enveloping Derek in a hug. It takes Derek a second, before Stiles feels his hands splayed on his back.
I’m scared, Stiles wants to stay. Please stay. Don’t go. I don’t know what I’m going to do without you. But Stiles has battled his demons, still is. And he knows if he was given the chance to skip town, he would have taken it. So instead, he says, “Be safe.”
Some things are easier done than said.

Summary
“Are we really doing this?”
Stiles is practically cutting off circulation in Derek’s hand right about now, but to fuck if he cares, he’s so goddamn nervous. He realizes when he asked, he’d still been staring off at the building in the distance, and instead turns to look at Derek.
His eyes are calm and reassuring, and he has a smile on his face, wide and toothy.
“Yeah, we are.”

Summary
In 1981, the war ended with Voldemort’s death. Thirteen years later, Regulus still lives in the shadow of his parents’ contribution to the cause. No matter how hard he works or how much he accomplishes, he can’t escape the weight of his family name.
With the biggest project of his career now in front of him, Regulus leaves London to pose as a Healer on the Romanian Dragon Sanctuary. The only hiccup is a variable he never could’ve accounted for: James Potter, whose presence disrupts Regulus’ plans and forces him to reconsider everything he thought he knew.

His new reality: a cold, impersonal facility, under the watchful eye of none other than James Potter, who’s reluctantly tasked with his rehabilitation. Potter’s presence stirs something in Regulus — something unsettling.

Summary
Draco’s voice shook. “You don’t know what it’s like to have you. No one knows what it’s like to lose you.” A sob fled from him. “Please don’t make me be the first.”
Harry’s face crumpled, looking away, and Draco knew then it was over.
“It’s my past, it must be. I asked before and you said –”
“I have forgiven you –”
“I am a person!” Then quieter, “A person; not just something to be forgiven.”~
With his family’s name and misdeeds laying heavily upon him, Draco Malfoy returns to Hogwarts for a torturous eighth year. He finds himself unrequitedly in love with Harry Potter and at odds with everyone around him, even the bricks. While navigating the post-war world, he is forced to decide both who he is and what he wants.

Summary
After learning he was dying, James Potter planned his funeral the only way he knew how. A mix of mischief, chaos, and truly terrible singing. As Sirius, Remus and Peter return to their hometown to say goodbye, they find themselves swept into a journey of James’s carefully crafted memories.
For Harry, it’s a chance to see his father through the eyes of those who loved him just as fiercely. For Lily, it’s a lesson in how grief and forgiveness can intertwine. And for Remus and Sirius, the funeral brings them back to where they first began dancing around one another.Or
I listened to Pink Skies by Zach Bryan one too many times.
