Christmas Cookies
Tumblr media
It's about a year late, but I'm finally finishing up the last prompt for Holiday Traditions. So Merry Christmas everyone! 
Written for Wolfstar Holidays 2020. 
Prompt: Christmas Cookies 
❄️ ❄️ ❄️ 
December 25, 1985
“Careful with the icing, Harry,” Remus warned, “otherwise, we won’t have enough for the rest of the cookies.”
“But where’s the fun in that, Uncle Moony?” Sirius teased.
“Yeah, where’s the fun in that, Uncle Moony?” Harry parroted as he stuck the spoon he was using to ice cookies—because letting a five-year-old use a knife, even a full one, seemed like a bad idea—into the bowl. He got a giant glob and slapped it onto the cookie in his hand, getting more icing on his little fingers than on the actual cookie.
“Okay, but when we have a bunch of un-iced cookies, don’t say I didn’t warn you,” Remus said before getting back to work putting sprinkles on the iced cookies.
Sirius leaned down to whisper loudly in Harry’s ear. “Don’t listen to him. We can always make more icing.”
“Okay,” Harry whispered back.
Remus glanced over and locked eyes with Sirius. “You’re lucky you’re cute,” he mouthed.
“Love you,” Sirius mouthed back, earning a soft smile from Remus.
“What’s going on in here?”
Remus jolted and looked over to the doorway to see James standing there with an amused look on his face.
“Daddy, Uncle Moony, and Uncle Padfoot are making googly eyes again,” Harry complained.
“Yes, well, they’ve been making googly eyes at each other for nearly fifteen years, so I don’t think there’s much to be done about it,” James teased.
“Like you were any better,” Remus said.
“Yeah, don’t pretend that you don’t make googly eyes at Lily all the time,” Sirius added.
“He does!” Harry exclaimed. “Daddy makes googly eyes at mommy all the time.”
“Sold out by my own son.” James laughed and rounded the kitchen island to scoop his icing-covered son off the chair he was using to reach the counter. “Alright, kiddo,” he said, setting him down on the ground. “Why don’t you go find mommy so she can help you get cleaned up. It’s time for a nap.”
“Okay!” Harry said before running out of the kitchen with his iced hands outstretched in front of him.
“The kid sure does have a lot of energy.” Sirius laughed and grabbed a towel to wipe some icing off his own hands, then tossed it to Remus.
“You two are really good with him,” James mused.
“He’s a good kid,” Remus said. Once he finished wiping his own hands clean, he wrapped an arm around Sirius’ waist. Sirius put an arm around his shoulders and pressed a kiss to his hair.
James smiled fondly at them. “Have you two ever thought of having one?”
Remus looked up to exchange a puzzled look with Sirius.
“In case you haven’t noticed, Prongs,” Sirius said, “neither of us exactly have the parts to carry a baby.”
“You could adopt,” James pointed out.
“What are we talking about in here?” Lily asked as she came into the room. “And what in Merlin’s name happened to my kitchen?” She walked over and grabbed a finished cookie off the tray.
“Well, you saw your son,” Sirius said with a smirk.
“And to answer your first question,” Remus added, “Your husband is trying to convince us to adopt.”
“Ah. Want this one?” Lily asked, rubbing her very pregnant stomach. “Because if this one is anything like Harry, they’re going to be a handful.”
Sirius laughed and shared another look with Remus. They had talked about it, actually—adopting a baby. But they liked their life the way it was, at least for now. And if that ever changed, they’d talk about it then. But for now, they were happy with the family they had, and if there were going to be any additions, they would leave it to James and Lily.
“We’re perfectly content being Uncle Moony and Uncle Padfoot,” Remus said, his arm tightening slightly around Sirius’ waist.
Sirius smiled and squeezed him back. “What he said.”

Mistletoe
Day 5 of the holiday prompt list posted by @remus-john-lupin  I also did not read this again for mistakes so pardon those... anyways,
 The plan was christened as Sirius Black’s Five Step Method to Get Remus Lupin to Date Him. Or as James called it, Desperation at its Finest. It came together on a rather ordinary Wednesday evening in the dorm, where Sirius was lazily flicking sparks at James’ feet as the other boy slept. The appeal came from the quiet giggles and words like “Lily, stop that tickles” James would mumble sleepily, delighting Sirius to no end. This was prime blackmail material that Sirius would most definitely use as an advantage in the next coming weeks. 
Sirius had to bite his sleeve to keep his laughter from waking him up when James started puckering his lips against his pillow. Though, it turned out to be all for naught when Peter threw the door open with a bang. 
“Whazzat?” James sat up on his bed with his wand held out, though he held onto the wrong end. Sirius quickly hid his own under his duvet and turned his attention towards Peter, who was out of breath and full of sweat. 
“SIRIUS!” Peter shouted in a way of greeting, dumping his bag on the floor and slamming the door shut once again.
“PETE!” Sirius met his words with equal enthusiasm, though he had no idea what this was about. 
“JAMES!” James joined in, always ready to match his friends energy. Peter ignored him.
“Sirius, I just overheard a conversation in the library and Emmeline Vance is planning on asking Remus to the Christmas dance.” Peter let out in one breath as he searched through his trunk, pulling out a piece of parchment and a quill. 
“What?” Sirius and James both yelled in a panic, to which Peter explained everything he had overheard in the Library. Emmi’s Hufflepuff roommates had apparently talked her into asking Remus to the dance after Emmi herself complained about not knowing who to go with. Sona Pearce had suggested Remus because he was tall, kind, smart, and most importantly, mysterious as hell. The rest of the Hufflepuff girls had giggled at that, talking excitedly about how quiet and secretive Remus was. It was decided then, and declared by Emmeline that she would ask Remus Lupin to the Christmas dance. Peter had immediately run out of the library all the way to Gryffindor tower. 
And so that’s how Sirius Black’s Five Step Method to Get Remus Lupin to Date Him was born. Peter, as the scribe, James as the voice of reason, and Sirius as the anxiety ridden idiot in love. Together, they came up with the perfect plan to squash all of Emmeline Vance’s hopes and dreams. (Though, Sirius didn’t think she’d be too sad in the end, since she apparently didn’t have an actual crush on Remus.)
Sirius Black’s Five Step Method to Get Remus Lupin to Date Him (Desperation at its Finest) ((Shut the fuck up, James))
Step 1: Make sure Remus avoids running into Emmi Vance at all times. 
Step 2: Subtly show Remus that I, Sirius Black, am perfect boyfriend material.
Step 3: Ask Remus to the Christmas dance.
Step 4: Get Remus under the charmed mistletoe and kiss him until he forgets his name. (Stick your tongue down his throat) (Gettin’ Jiggy with it) (Peter, for the love of God, please never say that again.)
Step 5: Ask Remus on a date, become boyfriends, fall in love, get married, live happily ever after.
The first steps were surprisingly easy. Sirius managed to execute them without any complications, which was rare for a Marauder’s plan. The map came in handy when the first step was still in motion. All it took was a quick glance at the map after each class to make sure that they wouldn’t run into Emmeline on their way to the next class. A couple of times it was unavoidable, but Sirius would usually engage Remus in a conversation so he wouldn’t notice Emmeline trying to get his attention. And for the one time that Emmeline actually tried to come up to Remus and talk to him, Peter set off a well-timed dung bomb that set everyone running for fresh, clean air. He’d gotten detention for that, but Sirius was grateful enough to finish his potions homework for him for the next week. 
Step two was just as easy since Sirius usually complimented Remus on a daily basis and would help him with Transfiguration and Runes (the only classes Remus didn’t have the highest marks). He stepped up the game just a little by giving Remus his favorite sweets from a secret Hogsmeade run and organized his part of the dorm room before and after the full. Remus hadn’t acted like it was out of the ordinary, but he did thank Sirius and even gave him one of those secret smiles the two usually shared, so Sirius counted it as a very successful win.
Sirius was almost sure he failed the whole thing when it came to the third step, though. Actually asking Remus out brought up nerves that he usually only felt right before quidditch games. It ended up being a spur of the moment thing when the two were alone in the dorm, when Remus was getting dressed and Sirius was pretending not to watch. Sirius blurted the question before he could prepare himself for it. He thought the plan was completely fucked when Remus had only stared at him for a moment, confusion and concern evident all over his face. Sirius almost took it back, was about to play it off as a joke when Remus smiled and said “Sure, Pads. That sounds like a lot of fun.”
In the days leading up the the Christmas dance, Sirius learned that the fourth step wasn’t going to be as easy. Regular mistletoe wasn’t proving to be enough, so Sirius had to resort himself to charmed mistletoe, which backfired horribly when Peter had accidentally gotten stuck with him. Much to both of their disappointment, the charmed magic on the stupid plant didn’t settle for any cheek kisses. 
The one who the charmed mistletoe was actually meant for had jumped out of the way at the last second, but Peter hadn’t been so lucky. It frustrated Sirius, that Remus seemed to have memorized the layout of all mistletoe decorations around the castle and avoided it well. So far Sirius had been resigned to kissing Both Prewett twins (separate occasions, thank Merlin), Dorcas Meadowes, Sona Pearce, Isaac Ure, and poor Peter all because Remus was apparently afraid of mistletoe.
The actual day of the Christmas dance made Sirius feel excited, nervous, and frustrated in one go, but his hopes were up that tonight would be the night he could get Remus alone and under the damned magical plant. 
Remus was getting ready in the boy’s dorm while Sirius was dragged up to Lily’s because apparently it was “more romantic” to wait and see each other until they met up at the common room entrance. At least Sirius got the perk of having Marlene do his eyeliner.
As reluctant as he was to admit it, Lily was actually right about the extra romantic thrill of seeing Remus after walking out of the Fat Lady’s portrait. He cleaned up well, with a set of dark maroon robes that went well with his dirty blonde curls and honey eyes. Merry fucking hippogriffs, Sirius could barely manage from swooning straight to the ground when those eyes met his. And that stupid, beautiful smile that Remus gave him when those honey eyes took in every inch of Sirius. He was completely fucked.
Sirius was fucked when Remus laughed as the teachers took the first dance, he was fucked when Remus ate a sugar quill from the refreshments table, and he was fucked when a hand grabbed his to pull him out on the dance floor for their own dance. The night was one of the best of Sirius’ life, yet he still hadn’t managed to get Remus under the mistletoe. He got distracted by dancing with Remus once the music turned into more upbeat stuff, and then they met up with James, Peter, and their dates and sat around for hours laughing and talking about other couples they could see on the dance floor.
James nudged Sirius at one point, motioning to where Emmeline was dancing with Benjy Fenwick. Apparently Emmi Vance had a type, which was tall and smart bookish boys.
Sirius got so caught up in joking with Remus and Lily that he didn’t hear the announcement for the last song. Lily had been dragged away by her date, leaving Remus and Sirius alone at their table near the refreshments. 
“Come on, let’s finish the Christmas dance with a bang.” Remus said, holding out his hand for Sirius to take. Sirius was so excited to dance with Remus that he didn’t even process the fact that this was the end of the night and he still hasn’t kissed Remus.
In the middle of their jumping around and screaming, Remus pulled out his wand and made an unrecognizable motion to Sirius, but before he could ask, Remus put his wand away and continued to dance. The crowd cried for an encore when the song ended, nobody wanted to leave just yet. The band relented, though they announced that this was going to be a slow dance. Sirius shyly took Remus’ offered hand and led them both across the floor in twirls and slow sways.
The night was actually perfect. Even in Sirius didn’t get to kiss Remus, he always had tomorrow, or the next day, or even the next. He just wanted to be in this moment with Remus as they swayed and laughed, completely oblivious to everyone else around them.
“So I found something interesting today.” Remus spoke, jolting Sirius from his thoughts.
“Oh yeah?” Sirius asked, curious as to what Remus found and thought interesting enough to bring up during their dance. 
Remus smiled, reaching into the pocket of his maroon dress robes and pulled out a small piece of parchment that was torn at the edges. It sort of looked familiar...
“Sirius Black’s Five Step Method to Get Remus Lupin to Date Him.” Remus read aloud. “I thought it sounded quite interesting, so I picked it up.”
“Moony, no! You weren’t supposed to see that!” Sirius let of Remus’ waist to grab the parchment out of his hands, but Remus was quick at dodging the attempts. 
“Oh Merlin...” Sirius groaned, completely embarrassed. He wished that whatever deity was above would just smite him right then and there. 
“Well, it has my name on it so I didn’t have any qualms about reading it...” Remus cleared his throat and shook out the parchment to prepare reading the rest. 
“Step one, make sure Remus avoids running into Emmi Vance at all times. This one was interesting, since I have no idea what Emmeline has to do with any of this.” 
“She was going to ask you to the dance...” Sirius muttered. He was pretty sure this is the reddest his face has ever been, and there was no way to stop this torture. 
“Ah, I see. Step two,” Remus continued, “Subtly show that I, Sirius Black, and perfect boyfriend material.”
All Sirius could do was smack his hand to his face and keep wishing that he could somehow disappear from this whole mess. 
“Step three, ask Remus to the Christmas dance.” Remus read, sounding more amused as the moment dragged on. “Now, since we’re both here at said dance, I can only assume you deemed the first three steps successful, right?” 
Sirius didn’t answer, but Remus apparently wasn’t actually looking for one, he just continued reading. 
“Step four, get Remus under the charmed mistletoe and kiss him until he forgets his name.” 
They had stopped dancing at this point. Sirius was pretty sure it was because of him being to embarrassed to do anything but cover his face and listen as Remus read his own plan aloud to him. He felt rooted to the spot, no matter how much he wanted to run away and hide until graduation. Maybe the room of requirement would be a good place to live until then...
“I laughed and James’ and Peter’s inputs here. And suddenly, all your mistletoe mishaps made sense. It was hard to watch actually, nearly crushed all my hopes, but when I found this it all started to make sense.” Remus waved the parchment again and Sirius heard it flap. 
“Remus, please stop. I’m so sorry, okay? I promise I can just avoid you if you want that, but- wait? Did you say I crushed your hopes?” Sirius finally took his hand off his face, looking at Remus for the first time since he started reading. He expected to find disgust, but instead he saw Remus smiling that same, sweet, secret smile that they shared between the two of them. 
“Well, duh.” Remus shrugged, still holding that damned piece of parchment. “I don’t think anyone would like to watch the guy they fancy kiss six other people.” 
Sirius could only gape while his brain floundered for words to say. 
“You- you fancy me?” It came out as a whisper. 
“Of course I do, you daft mutt. Only for the past two years or so. How could I not?” Remus smiled again, and Sirius realized that the way he was looking at him was the same way Sirius would look at Remus when he thought the other boy wasn’t looking. Oh. This revelation brought back all of Sirius’ confidence, it seemed. He put his hand back on Remus’ waist to pull him just a little bit closer and plastered a smirk on his face. 
“Well then, what am I going to do about step four? It’s been bloody hard to check that one off, you know.” 
Remus laughed, and then pointed at the ceiling above him, revealing a single spot of charmed mistletoe. Well, that explains why Sirius felt so rooted to the ground earlier, then. And it explained Remus’ random wand movement earlier.
Sirius’ thoughts were cut off again, but he was more pleased by the cause this time. The pair of softest lips he’d ever felt were pushed against his own, and he hummed, perfectly content. 
Remus was kissing him, Remus was kissing him!
The song ended, and people around them applauded the band for their night of well-played music but Sirius and Remus didn’t even notice. Their own thought were filled with only each other. It was the best night of Sirius’ life. 
“Well,” Remus broke away, breathless from their kiss but still smiling, “You’ve already asked me out, and you got your kiss, so what’s next?”
Sirius laughed and pretended to think about it for a moment, head tilting side to side. Remus smacked him on the shoulder to hurry him along. 
“I’m pretty sure the next step was to become boyfriends.” Sirius beamed. 
“And happily ever after will come later.” Remus agreed, and then his lips were back on Sirius’ while both boys were completely oblivious to the rest of the people around them.

Weird Muggle Loop Magic
I have this headcanon that since Sirius is so good at mechanical things like fixing up a motorcycle, he’d also be really good at knitting, which involves a lot more math than I’m personally comfortable with. So here’s my contribution for Hat & Gloves day from @remus-john-lupin ‘s Wolfstar Holiday 2020 prompt list! 
The Homonculus charm had worked, for a little while, but lately it had started to falter, and slowly the Hufflepuffs disappeared from the map one by one. It was contemplating this problem, shoulder to shoulder with Remus on the couch in the common room, that Sirius accidentally found a new fascination in the tiny, quick movements of Lily’s muggle knitting project next to the fire. She counted under her breath as she switched between the colored yarns, and every once in a while she levitated some scribbled notes in front of her face to consult while her hands were busy. He found himself trying to work out from across the room how the little knots worked together, and how Evans had managed to turn them into the hooded shawl draped over her shoulder without magic.
“Come on, Evans, please. I need to know how it works,” he pleaded later, racking his brain for something he could trade for knitting lessons. “And I want to make a hat and some gloves. Once I get to that point, I’ll never talk to you about your weird muggle loop magic again.” 
Lily kept walking towards their Arithmancy classroom. “You won’t be surprised that I don’t trust you, Black.”
“Why not?”
“Well, to start, you’re you. And secondly, knitting isn’t exactly… I don’t know any men who knit. Aren’t you afraid of what people will say?”
“I don’t care a whit about what people think. And I don’t know any other witches that knit the muggle way, either, so I could ask you the same question.” She didn’t have a retort for this. “If you help me, I’ll… uh…”
“You’ll get James to quit submitting op eds to the Hippogriff?”
“Yes! Exactly. Never again will you or any other Hogwarts student have to read about your unmatched beauty in the school newspaper.”
Now this was worth something. Gloves would be too advanced, but Black was smart and could certainly manage a hat without too much energy on her part. “Okay, it’s a deal.”
He took to knitting more quickly than she expected, and Lily almost felt bad for underestimating him. Their first practice session had gone rather well. He followed her instructions patiently, at first, and then experimented wildly, producing a very strange and uneven little knitted square that he studied like it was the Rosetta stone. He acted so pleasant and grateful for her help. Lily found herself wondering if Potter, too, could act so differently - so nicely - when there wasn’t an audience around. But then again, there was something that felt strange about it. She wouldn’t call Sirius Black a friend, by any stretch, but she’d know him long enough to know that something was up.
The following Saturday, Sirius arrived at the library earlier than they had agreed, with two hanks of a cheerful yellow yarn carefully wrapped in a cotton handkerchief in his bookbag. Lily watched his movements carefully until he got to the third round. Then, she decided to get some answers.
“So who’s the hat for?”
He paused and adjusted the yarn in his left hand. “I can’t knit a hat for myself?”
“There’s no way that’s for you.”
“How would you know?”
Lily cleared her throat. “Well, yellow isn’t really your color, and I know you know that.” She waited, watching, but his hair had fallen over his eyes as he looked down at his project and she couldn’t gauge his reaction. 
“And you wouldn’t let me measure you when we talked about sizing; somehow you already had that in mind. And we’re in the library, in the divination section of all places, so I think you don’t want anyone to see you working on this. This is some kind of secret present, isn’t it? So who’s it for?”
“Well done, Evans, maybe you should’ve been in Ravenclaw.”
Lily rolled her eyes at him. “Come on, tell me. Why are you so nervous about it? You don’t get nervous about things.”
He carefully set down the needles on the table in front of him. She sat up straighter, feeling a little small as his eyes scanned hers. He is nervous, she thought, wondering what it was that he was looking for in her expression. A witty insult might throw him off a little and keep it light. But it was clear to Lily that he had something to say. Something to tell her. Something that might make him feel better - not that she cared, but it was the right thing to do, to let him speak. 
“I want to make something for Remus. I want… I want to give him something he’ll like.” Lily hoped her eyes weren’t getting wide as his voice faded out quietly. “I want to make it myself, so that it’s just from me, and just for him.” 
Sirius didn’t say anything else; he waited, looking, his eyes moving back and forth as he watched her face for some kind of reaction, acknowledgement, anything.
“Well,” Lily said, looking down at the hank she was winding. “Remus looks really nice in yellow.”
This, apparently, was the answer he’d hoped for. With a smile, he said, “I’ve noticed.”
The finished hat was, Lily had to admit, something to be proud of. Sirius had experimented on some leftover yarn and figured out a waterproofing charm didn’t mat the wool too much. He gave her a hug before she left for the train home; it was unexpected, coming from Black, but started her Christmas holiday on a happy note. It was clear when she came back from break that her first foray into teaching had been successful.  Remus really did look nice in yellow, and he looked nice holding hands with Sirius, too.

day 13 of @remus-john-lupin​‘s wolfstar holiday fest: blizzard ✌️
With a blizzard like this, Sirius can hardly see a meter in front of him. He had been certain he could beat out the storm with his holiday shopping. But four wrong turns later, he doesn’t know where he is, and the streets are empty with no one to ask.
Still, Sirius knows that once the storm clears, he will be able to navigate his way home. He always has, six shots in or sober; he just has to wait it out until he can see where he’s going. Besides, at this rate, his gifts will be ruined before too long.
The windows of the coffee shop are partially opaque from frost, but Sirius can see the tables are empty, and it’s all the prompting he needs to reach for the door. He steps inside, and is drying his feet on the mat when someone speaks.
“Just sit anywhere. I’ll be right with—” The voice makes his mouth dry, and the room closes around him. “Sirius?”
Sirius turns slowly, his head spinning until he remembers to breathe—a sharp inhale between his teeth that catches when he sees Remus’s face. Ten years later, and Sirius is surprised by how little he’s changed.
“I didn’t know.” Sirius says. “I can leave.” He turns toward the door, but Remus shakes his head and frowns.
“Don’t. It’s nasty outside.”
“Oh. Okay.” He struggles, trying to think of something to say. When nothing comes, he closes his eyes as he takes another steadying breath, willing away the feeling of his heart pulsing in his throat.
They stand, facing each other for a moment, and somewhere past the buzzing in his ears, Sirius realizes what’s playing. “Cocteau Twins?” he asks, memories of laying on the floor with Remus, listening to Head Over Heels, and smoking weed hazy in his mind.
Remus’s cheeks flush pink, and his shoulders curl inward as he shrinks into himself. “I saw them three years back at Brixton Academy,” he says and rubs at the back of his neck.
“So did I,” Sirius says, startled by the fact that the memory of the concert now feels oddly incomplete.
“I wondered,” Remus mumbles, and when Sirius’s brow furrows, he adds, “It was on your birthday.”
“Oh. That’s right.”
Remus leans back against the counter, and his hand drops to it, a finger tapping anxiously, off-beat against the music. The longer the silence draws out, the more he feels the ground disappear from beneath him, so Sirius turns around and moves to a table. He sets the bags down before slipping out of his coat and carefully folding it across the chair.
When he turns again, Remus is staring at him with an inscrutable expression. It’s enough to make Sirius regret taking his coat off. “Are you really sure you don’t want me to leave?”
Remus’s finger stills, and he shakes his head. “If you want to go, I’m not going to stop you, but don’t pin it on me.” His voice is low and bitter, and Sirius knows that they’re not talking about him leaving the coffee shop.
“I thought you deserved better than me,” Sirius says and winces at the way the words come out of his mouth.
“That wasn’t for you to decide,” Remus says coldly, and his jaw tightens. “It wasn’t your choice to make.”
“I know. I’m not saying that it was.” None of the words are coming out right, so he tries again. “We were twenty-two, and I didn’t think we’d be able to pick up the pieces after what hap—” He corrects himself. “After what I did. You said you forgave me, but I couldn’t forgive myself.”
“That wasn’t my problem.” Remus squeezes the bridge of his nose, and closes his eyes for a moment, gathering himself. “Besides, I did forgive you.”
“It never felt like it.”
Remus stiffens. “I forgave you, but I was still angry. For fuck’s sake, Sirius, you didn’t even give it a full month before you broke up with me.”
“I know, and I wish I hadn’t done it like that. I wish I’d talked with you instead of just leaving like I did.” He reaches out towards Remus’s arm, but Remus takes a step back and stiffly crosses his arms over his chest. Sirius’s hand drops to his side, and he curls it into a fist until his nails dig into the palm of his hand.
“I don’t care what you wished you’d done. You still did what you did, and you didn’t even reach out, so how was I supposed to know?”
“After you didn’t come to Reg’s funeral, I thought you didn’t want to see me.” The words come out a hoarse whisper, and Sirius clenches his jaw, hating himself for the way his chest clenches and his eyes burn. In front of him, Remus’s face softens, and he takes a step forward.
“I wanted to come, but I thought it would make it harder for you to grieve, and I didn’t want—” He stops himself and glances down at the floor.
“What?”
“Nothing. Never mind. I should’ve come.”
But Sirius has never been good at letting things drop, and now feels no different. “What were you going to say?”
Remus takes a shaky breath. “It’s stupid and selfish.” When Sirius doesn’t lower his gaze or say anything, Remus continues. “I didn’t want that to be how we got back together. You were fragile, and I thought if I went, we wouldn’t be able to stop ourselves. I wasn’t ready for that, but then you disappeared, and James didn’t see you for four months, and—” Remus blinks rapidly, and his Adam’s apple bobs as he swallows. “I was an idiot. I should have come.”
“Yeah, you should’ve.” A flash of anger runs through him as Remus’s words settle. “You didn’t come to my brother’s funeral because you didn’t want to hook up, and you just thought I wouldn’t be able to stop myself?” 
“Don’t do that. It was more complicated.” Remus sighs, and Sirius closes his eyes and tries to steady himself. He tightens his fist, and the sharp pain of his nails digging into his hand sobers him up enough.
Suddenly, Remus’s hand is on his. Sirius startles, not having heard Remus cross the room. His eyes open and he freezes. With Remus this close to him, he can feel the heat from his body, and his breath tickles his skin. 
“You still...” Remus trails off, and his lifts Sirius’s hand, unfurling his fingers to reveal the red, crescent shapes in his palm. With his index finger, Remus traces each of them and stares down, eyes glassy. “I always hated when you did this.”
A shiver runs through Sirius, and he stares down at Remus’s fingers, terrified that if he moves, the moment will end. But then Remus lifts his hand up and presses a kiss where Sirius’s palm meets his wrist. He turns it over, his lips grazing against each knuckle, except for where the rings on Sirius’s fingers sit.
“Am I ruining everything?” Remus asks, and when their eyes meet, Sirius feels twenty-two all over again.
He doesn’t answer—simply leans in slowly enough to allow Remus room to step back. But Remus doesn’t. His eyes widen, and Sirius hears his breath catch a second before their lips meet. Blood pounds in his ears, and his hand drops to Remus’s sweater. He curls his fingers tightly around it until his knuckles are white, too terrified to let go. He runs his tongue over Remus’s lips, coaxing his mouth open, and Remus lets out a small moan.
The sound startles him, and Sirius starts to pull back, afraid he’s crossed some unspoken boundary. “Don’t,” Remus says, and takes Sirius’s hand in his again, entwining their fingers before leaning his forehead against Sirius’s.
“What are we doing?” Sirius asks, though he regrets the words once they’re spoken. Remus lifts his head up and sighs, and Sirius notices, for the first time, that Remus is crying.
“I didn’t want to overthink it,” Remus says, but he pulls his hand away and sniffles as he takes a step back. “I thought you looked exactly the same, but the more I look at you—really look at you—the more I realize there are all these things that aren’t exactly how I remembered.” His eyes search Sirius’s face, and when Sirius reaches out to wipe away tears, Remus shakes his head.
“I’ve asked James about you more times than I could count, but he never wants to tell me anything. Says it isn’t his place,” Sirius says, and Remus lets out a choked laugh as he wipes at his eyes with the sleeve of his sweater.
“I’ve asked Lily, and she’s just as stubborn.”
Beyond the windows, the snow has slowed, and a lump grows in Sirius’s throat. “I can go if you like,” Sirius says. “I think we’re over the worst of it.” Remus follows his gaze, and his lips twitch downward.
“Stay?” he asks.
Sirius nods, and when he pulls out a chair, he has the strange feeling that everything will be alright. “Okay,” he says, and he sits down.

Wolfstar Holiday Fest - Day 11, Gingerbread
As before, thank you so much to @remus-john-lupin for this lovely fest. Have a lovely Christmas everyone.
Sirius opened his eyes. James and Peter had already left for the holidays, it was just him and Remus in the dorm. That was more of a problem than he’d expected. There was nothing to distract him from the way the watery winter sun lit up his hair like spun gold. 
He sighed and pushed back the curtains around his bed, planning to get through the shower and get sorted before Remus woke.
Except, Remus’ bed was empty, the curtains thrown back and his pyjamas folded neatly like he did every morning. Frowning, Sirius pulled on jeans and his Quidditch jersey and started down the spiral staircase. 
Remus was waiting by the fire, in the common room, and jumped up when he saw Sirius. 
‘Morning Pads.’
‘Morning Remy.’
Remus looked uncertain, shifting his weight from foot to foot.
‘What is it?’
‘I got you something for Christmas.’
Sirius frowned, ‘It’s the 20th.’
‘An early present.’
Sirius crossed the room, ‘You look like the sky is falling.’
‘It might.’
‘What is it?’
When Remus pressed his lips to Sirius’, the sky didn’t fall. In fact, nothing really mattered to Sirius at all, except Remus’ curls under his hand, and the taste of gingerbread.

🌞 About Me 🌝
Hello, friends!
I'm Danni, also known as danpuff (previously danniperson). I'm 30 years old, have basically been part of the Harry Potter fandom my whole life, and Snarry has been my OTP for way too long. Aside from my beloved Snarry, I also really love rare pairs (especially Draco/practically anyone) and femslash. I'm an avid reader, a chaotic writer, and enthusiastic cheerleader!
This fandom means a lot to me and I do my best to contribute to that not only by sharing my own stories, but also by reading a lot and commenting as often as I can! I also like to share the stories I enjoy here on Tumblr as fic recs, to not only give them extra love myself, but hopefully bring them extra love from others, as well!
Please feel free to contact me here or find me on Discord as danpuff#4958. I love chatting with people, especially about my favorite ships and favorite fics!

Snowflakes
Tumblr media
Written for Wolfstar Holidays 2020. I hope you enjoy and thanks @remus-john-lupin​ for the list!
Prompt: Snowflakes
❄️ ❄️ ❄️
December 3, 1977
Sirius ducked behind a fallen log near the edge of the forest, pulling Remus down with him. “Do you think this is enough cover?” He asked, panting to recover his breath. 
“Not sure,” Remus gasped, sounding almost as winded as Sirius. He peaked over the top of the log, presumably scanning for any sight of Peter and James, Lily and Mary, Fabian and Gideon, Alice and Frank, or Marlene and Dorcas, their opponents in what they have now deemed as “The Great Hogwarts Snowball Battle of 1977.”
It was a tradition of the marauders over the past six years that during the first big snow of the season, they’d have a full-on snowball fight. In the early years, it was just the four of them, and there were no teams, but as the years went on, more people started to join in, and teams became necessary—well, more like pairs. It kept people more accountable for when they got out. 
“Do you see them?” Sirius asked. 
“No,” Remus said, sinking back down into the blanket of snow with a sigh of relief. “I think we’ve got some time to come up with a plan.”
“And catch our breath. I’m winded.”
“You’re on the Quidditch team, Pads. How are you already—?” Remus’ tease was muffled by Sirius clasping a gloved hand over his mouth. “Wha—?”
“Shhh! I think I hear something,” Sirius hissed, then gestured to the woods to their left. 
Remus nodded, and Sirius slowly removed his hand, but they stayed close as they listened for any sounds of movement. After a few long moments, they decided that whatever Sirius had heard was most likely an animal, not one of their friends, and relaxed.
Sirius looked back at Remus, who was still inches away from him, and his breath caught in his throat. He couldn’t help but stare at the other boy, whose tawny hair stuck out in little tufts from underneath his Gryffindor red beanie, whose long eyelashes were coated with the snowflakes that were still intermittently falling from the sky, and whose lips were delightfully pink and parted as he took shallow breaths. Merlin, he was gorgeous. And he was staring right back. 
“I think we’re safe,” Sirius breathed. 
“Yeah, if it were the enemy, we’d have been attacked by now,” Remus murmured in agreement. Then, he reached up and brushed Sirius’ hair, whispering “snow,” as some sort of explanation, not that he needed one to touch Sirius. Especially in such an intimate and reverent way. 
Without warning, a snowball came flying at them from the left, followed shortly by another one. Sirius quickly tried to duck out of the way, knocking Remus into the snow as he did, but it was too late. Each boy was hit with a snowball, Sirius to the shoulder and Remus to the side of the head. 
They heard a cheer followed by a shouted apology to Remus that sounded like it came from Alice, but before they could look, the enemies that had gotten the drop on them were gone. 
“Well, I guess we’re out,” Remus said, dusting snow off of the side of his face. 
“Is your face alright?” Sirius asked, bringing his hand up to caress the reddening spot on his cheek. 
“Yeah, I think so,” Remus whispered, staring up at him with a soft yet intense gaze.
Sirius was suddenly very aware that he was on top of Remus and quickly rolled off of him. “Do you want to sneak to the kitchens to get some hot chocolate?” he asked, blushing furiously. “Since we’re out and all.”
“And just leave everyone out here?” Remus asked, lifting his eyebrow in amusement. 
“Well, there’s no sense in us sitting and freezing our bollocks off, is there?” Sirius got up, dusted himself off, and extended a hand out to help Remus up. 
“Good point.” He took it and let Sirius help him to his feet, then let his hand linger in Sirius’ for a long moment. They locked eyes, and Remus smiled up at him in a different way from his typical smile. It was softer and a little more crooked, and Sirius liked to pretend that it was just for him. “But maybe we should bring some out for everyone.”
“You’re so generous, Moons,” Sirius said playfully.
Remus squeezed his hand, which he hadn’t realized he was still holding, then let go. “Come on, Pads.”

Snowman
Day 15 of @remus-john-lupin holiday prompt list. This one is sad and angsty :(
TW: death, loss of a loved one, first Christmas without a loved one, brief mention of alcohol abuse.
The sun was warm in the sky, and Remus’ body was warm in his arms as they cuddled atop the picnic blanket. Seagulls flew over their heads with wings spread against the wind as they called to each other. Some landed on the sand just a few feet from the couple and fed off of the bread and vegetable scraps Sirius had thrown to them earlier. The moment was paradise. Sirius’ vision was hazy for some reason, but it was perfect nonetheless. 
Remus laughed when Sirius leaned down to whisper in his ear, though Sirius couldn’t remember what he said. Probably some dumb joke about the guy they had met at the market earlier, or about something stupid James had done that morning. Whatever Sirius did say, though, didn’t matter as much as Remus’ laugh ringing from his lips like a bell. That laugh that made Sirius feel like he was home. 
“I love you.” Sirius said, leaning back so he could make eye contact with his fiancé. He expected the words to be returned, or to get a kiss. Instead, Remus’ eyes turned sad. 
“I love you too baby.” Remus whispered, hands moving to cup his chin. Sirius was baffled as to why he couldn’t feel the warmth of Remus’ hands on his face. “But you need to let me go now.”
Sirius furrowed his brow, looking at Remus like he had grown a second nose. “What are you talking about, Rem?”
Remus sighed, his eyes looking pained and sad, though it didn’t stop him from slowly fading away. Sirius tried to hold on tighter. “Rem what’s going on?” 
 Remus leaned in then, kissing Sirius on the lips even though it lacked its usual warmth. Sirius closed his eyes anyway, confused but still in love with these moments. When the lips pulled away, Sirius kept his eyes closed and smiled to himself. 
“I miss you. So much.” 
Sirius tried to laugh, thinking it was a joke.
“What are you talking about? I’m right here.”
Though when Sirius opened his eyes, he wasn’t on a beach with Remus, basking in the warm summer sun that would put a tan line on each of their ring fingers. No, Sirius was home in bed and Remus was gone. He had been for 4 months. 
This part was always hell. Sirius dreamed about Remus every night, whether it was a memory of one of their old dates, or they time they got engaged. Once, he had dreamt of the wedding that never happened. When Sirius woke up after that one, he didn’t get out of bed for six days. Every dream ended the same way. Sirius told Remus he loved him, and Remus begged Sirius to let him go.
The crying always came next. Sirius would lay numb in their bed, staring at Remus’ cold pillow as tears ran from his eyes. His face and body lay motionless, letting the salt water wet his pillow until there was no more to let out. Sirius did the same thing every morning for the past four months and it still didn’t get easier. 
James came by most days. At first it was to force Sirius to actually eat something and then force a cup of water, or really, anything that wasn’t alcohol down Sirius’ throat. Now though, James came by so they could both grieve together. And it hasn’t been any easier since the first week. They didn’t always say anything. Sometimes they sat on the couch and held each other while they cried, sometimes they were both too numb to do anything but sit and stare at the floor. Still, it was a comfort when James came by. He always knew what Sirius needed. 
The knock on the door got Sirius to stand up, forcefully tearing his gaze from the empty pillow on the other side of the bed. Sirius didn’t know if it still smelled like Remus or if it was just his mind making up things to help him cope. There was no need to get dressed, since Sirius was still in the same sweats and sweatshirt as yesterday. The knocking got more insistent. 
Sirius shuffled through the house and opened the door to see James carrying a box with him. One that was wrapped in white and gold paper. 
“Hey.” James said. 
“Hey.”
Sirius moved to let James in, who walked past to set the box down next to the couch and then was back out the door before it could shut. Lily came in next, carrying two small gifts stacked on top of each other, and then she, too, went back out the door without a word. Sirius watched silently from the sidelines, his bestfriends going back and forth from the couch and back out the door. Each time they brought more boxes wrapped in colorful paper. 
“What’s going on?” Sirius finally asked, as James and Lily settled themselves on the couch and started sorting the boxes into three separate piles. 
“Well you didn’t think we’d let you spend Christmas by yourself, did you?” Lily asked, throwing a tiny box wrapped in green paper onto the beanbag by the fireplace. 
Sirius was genuinely confused. 
“It’s Christmas?”
He didn’t miss the look James and Lily shared, and equal mix of concern and sorrow. They spared him a smile before they went back to their sorting. 
“I think so?” James joked. “December 25th, right? Usually the day most folks sit under the tree and exchange gifts.” 
Sirius watched them for a minute more, wondering if they were taking the mickey. “I haven’t got a tree.” 
Lily huffed, mumbling a sarcastic we know, thanks while James moved to the kitchen to grab some hot chocolate for the three of them. Lily turned to face him then, holding her arms out for him. Sirius crashed into them like they were a lifeline. 
“Merry Christmas, pads.” Lily whispered into his ear, and Sirius started to sob. 
“Lil- Lily, I- I didn- didn’t know it was Christmas. I didn’t get you guys anything.” The words had a hard time getting out through his broken sobs, but Lily didn’t need to hear them anyway. Instead, she stroked his hair and tried her best to shush him. 
“We know, love. It’s okay. You don’t need to do anything, it’s okay.” 
Sirius sobbed into her shirt, letting himself be held and comforted. He didn’t know how long he had been there, but when he finally sat up, James was holding a warm mug of cocoa out to him with a small smile on his face. There was no judgement from his bestfriends. Just love. And a shared feeling of emptiness.
They sat on the couch in silence, taking occasional sips of hot chocolate. There was no rush for him to do anything, no rush to get to presents or make breakfast. There was just a quiet moment with people who knew almost exactly how he felt. 
“This is our first Christmas without him.” Sirius thought, staring into the pool of dark brown in his mug. The same color as Remus’ eyes. He realized he might have actually said it when he felt Lily shaking beside him. 
“We know, sweetheart.” Her voice was shaking as bad as she was, though she still smiled when he looked at her. “But we have something for you, we’re hoping it will help fix that.” 
James set his empty mug down on the coffee table to get one of the boxes that was sitting next to the fireplace. It was confirmed as Sirius’ Christmas pile when James set it on his lap. 
“Go on.” James said. Sirius looked at him with confusion, but decided to do as he said. He looked down at the box to see it was the one with white and gold wrapping paper and a silver bow on top. Sirius moved it off carefully. 
He was confused to find a plain brown box underneath it all, but James and Lily just smiled encouragingly. Sirius unfolded the flaps on top and saw a smiling snowman staring up at him. He noticed the color of the eyes first, right before the forest green sweater came into view. It was definitely something Remus would have put up for a Christmas decoration. Everything about this stuffed little snowman reminded him of Remus.
“We customized the sweater. Made it to look exactly like Remus’ favorite one.” Lily explained, and then she pointed to the gloved hand of the snowman that held the words “squeeze me”. 
Sirius felt the tears coming again, knowing and wanting what the press of the button would give him. He needed to hear Remus’ voice today. He needed Remus here with him, in anyway he can. Sirius squeezed it. 
Hey, Sirius. Remus’ voice came from the snowman. He sounded like he was smiling. 
I just saw a dog on the street, he reminded me of you. He came up and sniffed at the flowers I was holding and barked. I think he was telling me he approves of your surprise gift. Oh, shit, I guess it’s not a surprise anymore. Oops. Anyways, I called to say that I sent out the invitations today. Made me smile like a fucking goon, but it was worth all the funny looks I got. Nobody can judge me for being happy when I get to marry you in two months. I’m patiently waiting to spend forever with you, baby. I love you.
Sirius thought he had nothing left to cry, but that was Remus’ voice he just listened to. Remus’ voice, which he hadn’t heard in four months except for the times he called Remus’ phone and prayed for him to pick up. He always got his voicemail instead. Remus’ voice, telling Sirius he loved him, telling him he wanted to spend forever with him, telling him how he got so fucking happy about sending out their wedding invites. Remus’ voice. 
Sirius squeezed the Snowman’s hand again. 
And again.
And again. 
And again. 
James and Lily moved in closer, holding him as they all listened to Remus. His voice filled the living room, and if he closed his eyes, it was like he was there with them. 
Remus is here. Remus loves him and Remus is here. Everything was going to be okay.

Mistletoe
for Wolfstar Holiday 2020 prompts from @remus-john-lupin
“It’s poisonous, you know.” Remus leaned against the wall, exhausted from supervising the weekly play-date. At this time of year, the rules about sugar consumption just flew out the window, and he had decided it was time to surrender and get another cup of coffee. 
Sirius didn’t look up from his handiwork. “Well, Harry’s almost seven. I don’t think we have to worry too much about him eating random plants this year.”
As if summoned, Harry and Ron tore through the doorway to the kitchen, right under the mistletoe they were discussing. Ginny followed on their heels, screaming. Remus sipped his coffee.
“Oh come on, Moony. What’s wrong with a little mistletoe, getting you to kiss me in the kitchen?” Sirius rested his hands on Remus’s waist and pulled him in against his hips. “I think I get entirely too few kisses around here. This holiday season, I’m doing something about it.”
Remus had to raise his coffee cup high over their heads, a little awkwardly, but settled into Sirius’s embrace. “Mistletoe is a parasite, Pads. Well, technically, it’s a hemiparasite. It can photosynthesize on its own a little, but mostly it just survives stealing nutrients from trees. It’s not exactly romantic!”
“Why is it so sexy when you manage to be grumpy and nerdy at the same time?”
Harry and Ron ran back the way they came, Ginny close behind, still screaming.
“I give up,” Remus sighed, and let Sirius have his kiss.

hi librarian! it will be hannukah soon and, since it’s such a fun holiday, I thought it’d be cool to read some hannukah themed fics! or just fics with good Jewish rep in general :) do you have any to recommend?
Happy Hanukkah friend! The Librarian was delighted to get this ask last night! They needed to do a little research to make sure the fics chosen were a good representation, and even ran a few questions by some Jewish members of the wolfstar community.  
To anyone who’s new to learning about Hanukkah (December 10th-18th of 2020), it may help to know that Jews are not defined by religious choice, since anyone of Jewish ancestry is Jewish. Below are some more helpful links if you decide to write about Hanukkah or add Jewish characters to your fics!
Hanukkah 101
Types of Jews
Writing POC 101: Jewish Characters
If you are not Jewish, remember that is it your responsibility as an author to seek out knowledge and authenticity. Do not wait to be corrected by those willing to take the time to critique you, even after you have misrepresented them.
Another note is to remember that many in the Jewish community find the goblins in Harry Potter a terrible stereotype. They are written a different race, with large noses, that is very money hungry. You can read more about that here.
Thanks for letting the Librarian share some learnings, and now let’s get to some positive Jewish fics!

8 fics for Hanukkah + 1 wip
Candles in the Darkness by @swottypotter
In the winter of seventh year, James, Sirius, and Remus are all carrying their own burdens and fears for the growing darkness in their world. Together, they find comfort and light at the Hanukkah celebration in the Lupin household.
Discards by @picascribit When 21-year-old assistant librarian Sirius spots a cute hipster college student at the Seattle Public Library, he just needs to figure out a subtle way of determining whether he's into guys. But Remus's life is more complicated than Sirius knows.
Beets -orphaned account On a short homestay in France, Sirius gets to know his host family, in particular the adorable Remus Lupin. When he attempts to cook them dinner, however, a slight miscommunication leads to...revelations.
The Daily Grind: Black Coffee -orphaned account When Orion Black orders his son Sirius to go undercover at one of his cafés, Sirius is not pleased. All he wants is to head off on a tropical holiday far away from his family. Unable to say no, Sirius is forced, for the first time in his life, to work. Flailing, he's certain it's all going to come crashing down until he realises his co-workers are more than just co-workers. They're family. But how will they react when they learn the truth?
A Kiss Won't Mean Goodbye: Hanukkah Special by @marlenemckinn
After years of searching, Sirius finally is given the one piece that had always alluded him but meant the most just in the for Hanukkah.
Addicted To The Magic -orphaned account Sometimes you meet a stranger on the tube, and the entire course of your love life changes--even if you have no idea who they really are. And sometimes you know exactly who the messy-haired, speccy prat is who keeps showing up at your work, and as much as you try and deny it, he truly is growing on you.
Whatever Words I Say -orphaned account When Remus Lupin is hired to control the antics of famous lead singer of the Marauders, Sirius Black, he knows he has his work cut out for him. Sirius is contrary and has absolutely no chill, and loves pissing off the press.
