the art of letting go; jp x sb x rl
pairing: james potter x sirius black x remus lupin
synopse: James always wants to take care and love the others so much, that he sometimes forgets to do so with himself. thankfully, he has two amazing boyfriends to do so.
warnings: slight angst, panic attacks, self hate kinda, poly relationship, maybe peter redemption, hurt/comfort, too many italics
word count: 4k
a/n: long time no see :) literally love the idea of these three together. i’ve only read things where james is the one putting sirius and remus back together, so why not change that? also, if you don’t like, don’t read.
James always felt a necessity to care. To give. To love.
He had been this way since a little boy; always making sure his mum, Euphemia, and his dad, Fleamont, were alright, and helping with everything he could.
This need only grew when he went to Hogwarts and met his friends, Peter, Sirius and Remus. Lily, Marlene, Dorcas. Even people he didn't know that well, from other houses.
James always wanted to take care and love the others so much, that he sometimes forgot to do so with himself.
.
James had been feeling blue for a few weeks. Not that it mattered, his problems were nothing compared to the others.
When Peter felt insecure about his body, James was there to tell him he was awesome, and that not everyone could have the same, intitulated perfect, body shape. He even got Peter going out with a pretty Hufflepuff in the meantime. None of the Marauders have been seeing much of Peter lately.
When Sirius was enraged and frustrated with another less than caring letter from Walburga Black, James was there to make him smile again and go to the Honeydukes with him, just to cheer him up. James was there to hug him and tell him that he loved Sirius, and that he would always have him. Sirius never would stop grinning for the next few days when James was like this; always by his side, or on his lap, hugging him constantly.
When Remus was feeling closed off from the world, mind travelling back to dreadful bright moon nights, James would hold his Moony, would lull him to sleep and try to do his homework. James would fold his socks. James would convince the House Elfs to make Remus' favourite chocolate cake, and he, Sirius and Remus would stay up together, sharing cuddles and hugs (and kisses).
So, yeah. James really should pull himself together because he didn't have the right to feel sad. To want to cry. To want someone to hold him instead. He had lovely parents, he was a star player in his quidditch team, girls and guys threw themselves at him left and right, and he had the bestest friends and boyfriends anyone could ask for. He had the perfect life, he always heard.
"Honestly, James, you're just so amazing. I don't know what I would've done without you. You're just so perfect, your life's perfect," Peter once commented. "And you're really smart, which is also cool and-"
James then tuned him out. Peter was lately spending less time with James, Sirius and Remus. James logically knew why; he had a girlfriend, he had made new friends, he wanted to give the rest of the Marauders space for their relationship. He had even started to sleep in Longbottom's dorm, which had a free bed, and the two of them had become the greatest of friends. Logically, James knew this.
But, at the same time, he couldn't help but feel like he made something to draw Peter away. Like James failed. When, in reality, Peter would always be grateful to James to pull him out of his shell, and find the relationships that he was longing for. He had a beautiful, kind girlfriend. He had other friends. He felt at home with the Marauders. The bitterness that sometimes Peter would feel disappeared completely. Peter would always be grateful for having a friend like James.
James just didn't understand this. And for that he would always disagree with Peter- James really wasn’t amazing.
.
At first, he could fake it. The sadness and the growing despair inside him. He would smile, he would joke, he would be confident. Even Padfoot and Moony, the ones that knew him the most, the ones that he loved the most, didn't really notice something at first. And why would they? Even James didn't know what was wrong. If he ignores it, it will go away, he's sure.
However, slowly, Sirius and Remus realised that something was wrong. They just didn't know how truly wrong it was.
The first time it was after a Quidditch game against Hufflepuff. They had lost, and it was thanks to James. At least he thought it was. He couldn't get one goal right, and their point disadvantage was so big, that even after the red seeker catched the golden snitch, it wasn't enough to win.
Remus thought it was just a bad game, even though he did find it odd. He couldn't see James' face from the standards, so he would have to wait until he could hug both of his boyfriends to give his signature comforting smile and say 'Don't worry, next time it will be better'.
He had been waiting outside of the Griffindor's locker rooms, where the team would shower after the games, for about 15 minutes now.
The door opened and Remus turned his head towards it's way, expecting to find a wet haired Sirius with his arm around a pouting James. Instead, he only found a frowning Sirius, and no James.
"Where's Prongs?" Remus asked, raising an eyebrow and opening his arms for Sirius. Being the tallest one with 6'3, Remus leaned his head on Sirius's, kissing his hair. Sirius, not very much behind on the height department being only 2 inches shorter, nuzzled his nose on Remus' chin.
"Something's not okay, Moony," Sirius closed his eyes, frown deepening.
"Watchu' mean?" Remus said, still looking towards the door to see his other love.
"Prongs. James. His eyes... he was really sad."
"Well, I mean, it wasn't the best game, I know, but-"
Sirius pulled back slightly, mouth still frowning and eyes swimming with worry. "It's not that, Moons. He was just... I don't know, you'll understand when you see him, but he just kept his eyes down the entire time, said to the team that he was sorry for disappointing us, and went to the shower. He's still in there. He told me to come get you and for us to go get dinner and that he would meet us in the dorm. Something's not okay, Remus."
It was now Remus' turn to frown. This wasn't like James. After a bad game, James would get out of that locker room, his hair wet and messy, glasses crooked, and his arms crossed, all while pouting like a child. He then would come into Remus arms, and ask demand him to carry him towards the dorm, not carrying who saw them. Sirius would be close behind, talking exasperatedly and dramatically about the game to Remus and James would sulk and hide his face on Moony's neck, while his legs would wrap around his waist. Being the smallest of the three at 5'10, this really wasn't a problem for Remus.
But this didn't happen. Sirius and Remus shared a worried look but went to the Kitchens, hand in hand, to go get dinner and bring it to their dorm. They asked for an extra treacle tart for their bespectacled boy.
And when James finally got there, almost half an hour later, with his eyes lost and a tired smile, neither said anything. They only held him and kissed him throughout the night.
.
The second time it happened was during Transfiguration. It was known that James Potter was quite good at it, and it never failed to make Minnie very proud (insert a rolling of eyes and a reluctant smile by the elder professor).
They were being given back their papers, the ones they did the previous week. McGonagall said that she was proud of the class, that they all did good. When it got to James' turn, she gave him the smallest smile, and continued to give their papers away. A big, bold red 'A' was written on the corner of the page. Acceptable.
Huh, James thought. Okay then. He usually got an O, as he always did outstandingly well in these, but apparently he really wasn't that good.
"Hey, Potter, how did you do? An 'O' again?" Lily Evans exclaimed from a few seats at the front, turning around and flashing her daring but nice smile. They had studied together for this paper. James noticed the 'O' on her paper.
Students were talking excitedly to one another, eager to show their good grades. James looked at her and smiled weakly at her, but to others it seemed more of a bashful smile. "Not this time Evans, got an 'A'."
He noticed the noise lower slightly, his friends glancing his way with a curious look. Lily was surprised, but tried to hide it by shrugging it off while saying something akin to "Oh, that's also alright then". James knew she didn't mean it, but it sounded a little condescending, like when you're talking to a small child. He looked down at his red 'A' again.
He was a good friend. He was good at Quidditch. He was bright at Transfiguration. At least he thought so. As the days passed, James was starting to doubt it.
He missed the look Sirius and Remus gave him from each of his sides. He didn’t really notice the arm Sirius wrapped around his waist or the hand that Remus was now stroking. James could only hear the blood rushing through his ears, and he lost himself in his own head. He almost didn’t catch the dismissal from McGonagall. He unwrapped himself from his boyfriends hold and rushed out of the classroom, his paper grasped tightly in his hands. His ears were ringing, he didn't hear the calls of his name; McGonagall wanted to talk to him, having noticed his growing silence in her classes. Lily wanted to apologise, for having come off as rude, when she saw the glare Sirius sent her way. Peter wanted to show James his 'E', excited for his good grade. Dorcas and Marlene wanted to go on a walk, to tell him the newest gossip. Sirius and Remus just wanted their Prongs back, but he didn't hear them at all.
.
"I am scared, Rem," Sirius quietly admitted that night.
"I know, Pads. Me too," he whispered, still running his fingers through James' raven hair.
It was almost midnight. Peter was spending the night with his girlfriend, and while Sirius and Remus loved Peter, they were quite happy for the privacy. Especially now.
James was on top of Remus, head resting on his chest. His back was towards Sirius, who wrapped his arms around James torso, cuddling into Remus' side. They had only found James hours after the Transfiguration incident, hidden under his Invisibility Cloak on his bed (even though it was their bed, transfigured into a bigger king size, so the three of them could sleep comfortably together).
"I don't know what's wrong. He won't talk to me. To us. I just want our James back, Remus," Sirius continued, voice quivering from the lump in his throat. His eyes were suspiciously watery.
"I know, love, I know," Remus sighed tiredly, kissing Sirius on the lips and pressing a long kiss on the top of James' head.
Neither said anything when a lonely tear escaped James' eye.
.
Christmas was approaching now. Classes were ending today, and most of the students were happy to go back home and see their family.
It was breakfast, and James was sitting next to Remus, Sirius across them along with Peter and Frank. James was munching on his toast quietly, head leaning on Remus' shoulder, while Remus wrapped his arm around James' waist.
It was obvious to everyone now that James Potter was not okay. But one look at Sirius and Remus' faces and their opinions and thoughts would be immediately shut down.
The boys were talking with Lily, Marlene and Dorcas when an owl came in and dropped a letter on James' lap. James cleaned his hand with his napkin and opened a letter that was clearly from his parents. He couldn't wait to go home. That was probably all he needed, to go home for a few days, and when he came back he would be completely normal again. At least, what was normal for James.
He knew that his boyfriends were worried, if the constant affection and reassuring "I love you"'s were anything to go by. He loved them so much it hurt him, and he hated himself for doing this to them, but he couldn't do anything about it. He didn't know how to. James didn't even know what was wrong with him, why he was sad.
James felt his heart stop at his mother's writing.
Dear,
Your grandfather Henry passed this previous night. Monty and I will travel to London, for his funeral, this afternoon. It may be better for you to stay this Christmas at Hogwarts, sweetheart, as we'll only be back by next week to sort everything out.
We're really sorry dear, We promise we'll make up to you. Say sorry to Sirius and Remus for us, our celebration will have to wait.
We love you. Merry Christmas.
Mum and Dad.
Oh. Okay then.
James heard Remus' sharp intake of breath from beside him. He knew he was reading from over his shoulder.
"Jamie-"
"S' okay, Moons," James said, slowly removing Remus' arm from around him.
"No, please wait-" Remus tried once more, reaching his arms towards his James. His James that was hurting badly and he couldn't do anything to stop it.
The slight desperation in Remus' voice startled the others; if the usual calm and collected Remus Lupin was that worried, it was definitely not good.
"I'll be right back, Rem. Don't worry."
And with that James left the Great Hall.
.
Hogwarts was almost empty by the end of the afternoon. The majority of the students went back home. Sirius and Remus stayed, refusing to go anywhere.
The Gryffindor Common Room was filled with Christmas decorations to the brim. The light was dim, candles flying around. The harsh rain and wind from outside filled the silence. Being the only one there, Sirius was cuddled up under a big, cozy blanket, his and his boyfriends favourite, on his favourite sofa, looking longingly at the fireplace. He was waiting for James to return from wherever he went to hide. Remus was finishing his shower back in the dorm.
It had been a while since Sirius was happy, as he couldn't when one of his favourite two persons wasn't. The quidditch game, the one where all of this started, had been today three weeks ago. The full moon was a week after that. It has been a difficult month in general.
No matter how much he thought, Sirius didn't know what was wrong with James. He had always been proud of himself when it came too reading Remus and James. He knew them like the palm of his hand, they were his soulmates. It made him anxious not knowing what was wrong with one of them.
The sound of a portrait opening shook him out of his thoughts, and Sirius snapped his head in the sound's direction.
There, looking completely exhausted, was standing James Potter. His eyes were red, as if he'd been crying non-stop for hours. His breathing was loud, and Sirius was sure his lover's heart was beating way too fast.
Sirius Black was completely terrified because, as he'd come to realise, James Potter was reaching his breaking point. James opened his mouth and Sirius held his breath.
"Where's Remmy?" He asked quietly. So quietly that Sirius only heard him because they were the only ones there. Because the only thing that could be heard was the distant sound of rain and ravished breaths. Remus by now must have finished his shower. He must have, Sirius thought.
"He's just finished showering, Prongsie," Sirius's voice trembled slightly. He was sure that still, James didn't notice.
"Oh," his voice was soft, resembling the one of a small, innocent child, "Okay."
James looked out of the window, eyeing the rain. His mind was slipping, James realised. James felt small and sad and desperate and so tired. He wanted to count the tiny drops of rain that were painting the dark sky. He wanted to scream. He wanted Sirius and Remus. His ears were ringing again and James would've laughed at the thought if he could. They have been doing that quite much lately.
"I'm sorry-" James' voice broke. "I'm so so sorry, Siri.
And James finally let go.
.
Sirius saw James fall to his knees, Sirius saw James crying. The crying became almost immediately heart wrecking sobs.
Sirius jumped, and ran the fastest he ever had towards James. "Oh, my love," Sirius cried and pulled James into his arms. James gasped and pressed himself hard into Sirius body, as if trying to get out of his own and mold with him. Sirius was also crying in pain, as he could now see all of the despair James was in, but also in relief because he knew that this was necessary. James needed to break so he could heal. He needed to let go, and Sirius and Remus would be there to help pick up the pieces. It really was what he needed, what they all needed.
"Sirius," James called, body trembling, crying hysterically.
"I'm here, James, I'm here."
Sirius couldn’t really register his voice yelling for Remus. He picked James up, and walked the fastest he could to their dorm.
When he got there, Sirius threw the door open with one hand, the other still carrying James, who had legs wrapped tightly around the others waist, arms around his neck, hands mindlessly pulling at his hair, eyes tightly shut as the pain consumed him. James' sobs wouldn't subside, and his voice would be calling for either Sirius or Remus, saying that he was sorry and that he needed them and that he couldn't and that he was sorry again.
"Remus!" Sirius frantically called. "Remus, Remus!"
Remus rushed out of the bathroom shirtless, only having time to pull up his grey sweatpants. The sight in front of him would forever be the most heartbreaking thing in his life. Sirius with his eyes wide and hair completely messy, with tears running down on his face. His expression was of pain and fear. In his arms was a desperate James that sobbed and called for him, clinging to Sirius as if he needed him to survive. It was probably true anyway.
"Remmy, please, I'm sorry-" James continued, stuck in his own mind.
"I'm here baby, I'm here," Remus immediately rushed towards him, taking James into his arms to give Sirius some rest, and cupping his swolen, wet, red face with one hand. "You're okay now, Jamesie, we're here and we're not going anywhere. I love you."
Remus went to their bed, holding James tightly. He leaned his back on the headboard, keeping James on his lap. Sirius went to the bathroom and he came back with a soft towel, tissues and a glass of water. He put all of the items on the little table besides their bed and pressed himself into Remus' side, who let go of his arm to wrap around the balck haired boy. Sirius pressed his face into the back of James' neck, kissing and murmuring words of love into it. He felt James' frantic heartbeat start to slow down after a few moments that seemed too long and Sirius released a sighed of relief. Remus, who was previously nuzzling his nose on James' head, threw his head back, leaning it on the headboard as well, looking tired.
No one said anything for a few moments. The boys were waiting patiently for James to get out of his head, to collect his thoughts, to calm down. Sirius laced his fingers with Remus', who squeezed his hand.
"It-it started at the beginning of-of November more or less," James started, stuttering and fumbling over his words. Sirius put his arm around James' belly, and stroked the exposed skin, as his hoodie had rolled up. "I just- started to feel over, overwhelmed at taking care of everyone, and I felt sad. But, but I thought it wasn't important compared to all of the-the shit you two and the others have to face sometimes. So I just ignored it and, and kind of suppressed it." James furred his eyebrows, trying to concentrate, but the trembling of his voice didn't seem to want to stop.
"Shh, it's alright, baby, don't worry. Take your time," Remus quietly, but lovingly, reassured.
James nodded, cuddling more into Remus' warmth and grabbing the hand Sirius had on his stomach. " And it just- and it just kept getting worse. I just kept feeling more sad , and I was just so afraid of hurting and disappointing you..." He trailed off, lonely teats still running through his face. "I guess I just stopped caring about me, to the point where I didn't know what to do." James' voice broke and his lovers held on tighter to him.
He paused for a few seconds before he continued. "And when I went back to the Common Room, and saw Pads all cuddled up with our blanket... and, and he was frowning and his eyes were sad- I couldn't help but blame myself and feel like I disappointed you, and all of what I was trying to hold together these past few weeks just- just snapped."
"Oh, love, " Sirius sighed, stroking his thumb over the hand he was holding. Sirius then sat up straight, turned James back to Remus' front, and moved so he was right in front of the other two. He then grabbed James' face with both of his hands, while Remus wrapped his arms around James' waist and rested his face on James' shoulder. "I want you to get this through inside that thick head of yours, alright?" Sirius quietly demanded. "You should never ever feel like you don't matter, okay? Your feelings are just as important as Moony's and mine. You shouldn't feel like you don't matter, my love, because you do."
Remus lovingly kissed James' neck. "Padfoot's right, Jamie. And you could never disappoint us, baby, we love you so much."
James nodded softly, trying to get their words inside. Yeah. He can do that. He teared his eyes from Sirius' handsome face and looked down. Wow. I am such a fool.
"James." Remus murmured, noticing his boyfriend getting lost in his mind again. He continued to press small kisses to the raven haired boy. First his neck, then behind his ear. His jaw, his cheek, his temple and his hair. Just letting him know that he would always take care of his boy. Remus and Sirius would show James forever that he matters. That he is loved, that he is bewitching, smart and beautiful. Never again, Remus repeated in his mind.
Sirius lifted James' head once again and stroked his cheek adoringly. His hazel eyes were slightly dazed as he looked at Sirius. James gave him the littlest and sweetest smile. He looks so small, Sirius' mind echoed. And so precious. His boyfriend was absolutely adorable like this. In Remus' lap the size difference stood out; his hair was a mess and his glasses were crooked. His eyes were reddened and occasional sniffles were heard. His oversized black hoodie made the scene all the more cute. Not resisting, Sirius kissed James deeply and delicately, still stroking his face. Remus sighed contentedly and continued to press small kisses to whatever skin came across.
They stayed like that for a while. Throwing meaningful words of love and touches of affection. It was not until James finally slumped against them, with closed eyes and slow breaths, that Remus and Sirius pulled back and layed down, pressing James between them before all of them went to rest.
Sirius kissed Remus forehead and Remus kissed Sirius lips. Both of them pressed many tiny kisses into James' head, watching a peaceful smile appear. And it was then that it was clear:
James would always be okay, with his Remus and his Sirius, as long as he learned to just let go.

“How long have you been awake?” Remus asks, poking his boyfriend’s leg.
“Only enough to hear some very sweet words from our dear James.”
“I think I’m dying,” James groans, burying his face into Sirius’ shoulder.
“You two are truly partners in crime���and dramatic declarations, Moony quips.

Boyfriends? Boyfriends.
part 2 to this
Remus was in love with his two best friends, and it was fine – really it was – but there was one minor problem. They were dating each other, and Remus was pretty sure they weren’t interested in him like that in the slightest. Unlike what most people think, he does believe himself worthy of love despite being a werewolf, and had even grown to love that part of himself, so it had noting to do with him being self-deprecating. They were just so happy with each other that he couldn’t see either of them with anyone else. But keeping his love for them bottled up was going to kill him, so he told Peter and was advised to tell them. And he trusted Peter with his whole heart so decided to take his advice (of course he didn’t expect anything to come out of it).
Later that evening, Remus was sat with James and Sirius on the dorm settee. “James, Sirius,” he started, showing them he was serious by using their proper names, “I have something to tell you. Before I start, I want you to know that I don’t expect anything to change between us,” the other two nodded, “I-“ he took a deep breath and looked down at his hands, “I like you both, romantically, I understand that you probably don’t feel the same, but I’ll get over it,” (he won’t), “I just wanted to let you know because I can’t bare lying to you like this anymore and I know I’ll never stop if I don’t tell you.” He waited for a moment. Silence. Slowly, he lifted his head to see James and Sirius staring each other – no doubt silently communicating somehow – with soft grins adorning both their faces. They both turned back to Remus, smiles faltering slightly as they took in the worry on Remus’ face. “Re,” James softly took Remus’ hands in his own, “you have no idea how long we’ve been waiting for you to say that.”
“We had no idea you feel like that, but we’re so glad you do.” Sirius tells him, placing one hand on Remus’ cheek and gently massaged the tensions out of his face. “So, boyfriends?” Remus asked, hopefully.
“Boyfriends.” James and Sirius confirmed simultaneously.

Stardust: They smell like lemongrass
Summary: Pre-wolfstarbucks; Prongsfoot. Some short and sweet fluff. James and Sirius have just opened their new bar/cafe, Stardust. During their first live music night, James takes a moment to dedicate a song to Sirius.
Read on AO3 here! Previously published parts of this (out of order) series can also be found on AO3 here.
James leaned back on the wooden stool a bit, taking a breath between songs to stretch his fingers out a bit. He still couldn’t believe this was real; he was playing to an audience on the small stage in the corner of his bar. They had really done it; Sirius and him had opened Stardust and there was a crowd here for their first music night. A small crowd, but that was okay, they preferred it that way. There were people here they didn’t even know, people who they weren’t friends with, who weren’t just coming to be nice or supportive but because they had actually sought out this space and were enjoying the atmosphere James and Sirius were working so hard to cultivate.
James locked eyes briefly with Sirius where they stood behind the bar, pouring a brew for a customer. To say they shared a smile would be inaccurate as neither of them had been able to stop smiling for the past hour at least. James paused to take in a breath of success, noting the extra bit of satisfaction that sharing this with Sirius gave him.
“Alright, one last song from me before I let the real musicians play again,” James spoke into the microphone and got a few chuckles in response. “First, I just want to get in another thank you to all of you for coming out to our first music night at Stardust Bar and Cafe!” Cheers and applause. “As our friends know, this has been a dream of mine and my partner’s Sirius’ for years. We really wanted a space to relax, have fun, a comfortable atmosphere with good music and most importantly good drinks and good coffee in the mornings. And a space that was welcoming to us all. I think we’re off to a pretty good start.”
“So, this is my last song of the night and then you all can give a warm welcome to my friend Kingsley who will take over from here. Kingsley, where are you, love?” Kingsley waved to James from a corner booth and there was light applause as James waved back. “This last song is dedicated to my beautiful partner and the love of my life, Sirius, co-owner of Stardust. They're behind the bar tonight, everyone say hello!” Sirius had turned a delightful shade of red and paused what they were doing to watch James in surprise.
James started strumming his guitar, maintaining eye contact with Sirius throughout the opening lines of the song. Sirius’ smile grew as they recognized it and they brought their hands up to their chest, placing them over their heart.
“They smell like lemongrass and sleep. They taste like apple juice and peaches. Oh, you would find them in a polaroid picture. And they.... Mean everything... to me.”
James sung the words slow, drawing them out to increase their intimacy. This whole night had been about Stardust, and it wasn’t over yet. He wanted this one moment, the less than three minutes of song, to be about the two of them more than anything. If the expression on Sirius’ face was anything to go by, he was managing it successfully.
Sirius didn’t manage to serve a single drink through the whole song, their eyes never leaving James. James winked at Sirius as he played the last notes and Sirius blew James a two handed kiss, eyes glistening a bit in the low lights of the bar.
James was loath to stop watching Sirius, but he finally turned back to the crowd as the distant sound of their polite applause grew louder in his extended silence.
“Alright all, thanks again for the love. Give us a few minutes for set up and Kingsley will be up here to keep the music going. Have a drink in the meantime. Last call for alcohol is 3am and we’ll switch over to coffee at that point, so feel free to stick around as long as you’d like. Have a great night and enjoy!”
James stepped off the stage and made a beeline for Sirius, knowing he only had a moment because he needed to help Kingsley get set up but also knowing that he absolutely needed to give Sirius a kiss and it could not wait. He jumped behind the bar and practically threw himself against Sirius’ back while Sirius finished taking an order from a customer. Sirius just laughed and pressed a hand to James’ forearm.
“Thank you for my song,” Sirius murmured as they turned away from the customer. James loosened his arms enough for Sirius to turn around.
“You’re very welcome. I love you.” James clutched at the back of Sirius’ shirt and leaned in to press a kiss to their lips. Sirius reached up to hold James’ face between their hands and ensured the brief time for their kiss didn’t make it any less deep and loving.
“I love you too,” they spoke against James’ lips before releasing them.
James reluctantly but efficiently dropped his arms and stepped back and away to get back to work. The rest of the night passed in a blur, James helping first Kingsley and later Dorcas to set up and tear down for music sets, helping behind the bar when it got a little crowded, and generally running around to keep tables clean and make sure their staff had what they needed to keep things running smoothly. The fast pace of the work didn’t stop James and Sirius from finding each other in the crowd from time to time, exchanging glances across the room to check in wordlessly, pressing quick hands to the other’s back or arm as they moved past each other or worked together behind the bar.
Before James knew it, the night was wrapping up, the live music over and the low fi playing over the speakers being turned down quieter as the crowd thinned out. James and Sirius got ready to go, leaving things in their staff’s capable hands when the early morning shift came in. They were exhausted and they were so pleased. It had been an incredibly successful first live music night, only a week into being open and things were already starting to fall into routines.
For now, though, they would go home to fall into bed beside each other and get a few hours of sleep before coming back in the afternoon. And they couldn’t wait to do it all again, side by side, love in their every step.

Sam, sometimes I get so traumatized by searching simple requests on AO3 and getting the weirdest shits.
Like… I was searching for a „Harry Potter& James Sirius Potter“ fanfic with some „Fluff, Angst and comfort“ and the first thing that showed up was an explicit Fiction with Harry doing the devils tango with James S. (Without any of the tags that I put on the search bar????) Than I changed it with „Albus Severus Potter&James Sirius Potter, Brothers, Fluff, Family“ and… again… incest🫠
And it went on and on… James Fleamont Potter/Harry Potter, Lily Lu/Harry Potter, Sirius Black/Harry Potter, Harrys Parents/Harry,… Dumbledore/Harry (I just searched for Albus and Harry. Some fix it. I don’t even know what I wrote wrong)
Only cursed Ships🫠 Is it maybe a bug?🫠
I am not long on AO3, read all my fav fics on ff.net by reddit recs and started reading AO3 much later.
Do you know how to block such weird and disgusting shits on AO3? And on Tumblr too?
Tumblr recommended me so many Wolfstarbucks (Poly James/Sirius/Remus) and so many Jegulily (James/Lily/Regulus) fanart and it doesn’t matter how many times I blocked it, it still recommends me that🫠
Help?🫠
I am just 20🫠
I FEEL you but I am the worst person to ask this question because I am old. I legit exclude a bunch of tags and STILL can’t find anything I want to read because it’s weird shit. So I don’t go looking for fics anymore.
I really rely on recs from trusted Hinny authors or readers.
A good place is to go on the tumblrs of the authors you know you like and see what they recommend. Changes are, you’re gonna like what they read because it’s probably similar to what they’d write.
Another great place is the Ginny’s Lovers Discord. It’s a discord dedicated to Hinny lovers. They are so friendly over there. There’s a thread? (see I’m fucking old) where it updates whenever selected authors post. So sometimes you get things you don’t want to read or from different fandoms because the author used to write Hinny, but I have put a lot of stuff on my TBR from there. But I’m weird because I can’t read a bunch of WIPs at a time because I forget what’s happening so most times I just wait until a story is finished to read. I only keep one WIP at a time (that updates fairly consistently) but I constantly check the fanfiction updates tab there so I can see what stories are still posting and not. You can also ask for recs on different CHANNELS (is that what they’re called?? See how fucking incompetent I am??) with something specific and those amazing people always come through. While I’m not very active on there because social anxiety, they’re all super nice and helpful and may help you find stuff you want to read.
Other than that, ask your favorite authors on tumblr what their favorite stories are or what they’re currently reading.
Make friends in the fandom and read what they read. @funbunnypotter26 is an AVID reader of all things Hinny and Jily. She’s my sister from another mister. She knows exactly what I like and don’t like and she sends me recs ALL THE TIME. Everyone needs a friend like her because she just knows how to find the gems. What is your secret?!?!?
But those are my suggestions. I hope that helps!

The ultimate wolfstarbucks rec if you ask me. Like. GOd. I love it so fucking much. Such gorgeous writing, so visceral and just... AHHH like i can't talk about it more bc if i do i WILL ramble on about it for an hour. But seriously. It's the best.
It's a get-together fic, and while it's not *extremely* angsty, it's def not fluff either. James is pining, remus and sirius just as pathetic as him, and there's a war on the horizon. So yk... a lovely mess, if you will.
smsksksjsjk STOP i am literally reading this RIGHT NOW bc laura replied 2 my post like the most benevolent angel granting sacred blessings upon me and !!!!! GOD FUCK JESUS CHRIST i am only like. 10% in and ALREADY. ALREADY IT IS KILLING ME. everyone needs 2 read this right fucking now here it is linked for ur convenience ummmm @dykefever i am building an altar to u as we speak. this is turning my intestines to confetti
#fic recs#FIC RECS!!!!#saying it louder because FUCK#i swear every time i read anything written by ao3 writer dykesiriusblack it rearranges my brain COMPLETELY#ask

8.Do you get hate on fics?
no... i think lol. i had one passive aggressive comment but thats it.... i think
9.Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
yes. any except themes around a/b/o. havent written any bondage yet either
10.Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?
i dont write character crossovers so idk maybe my tangled au lol. writing my pookies in this world was whack for me. i eventually made it my own fantasy au rather than sticking to the disney universe
11.Have you ever had a fic stolen?
not that im aware of. altho i do often think about this one anon commenter who asked permission to translate my work 3yrs ago and still hasnt reached out with the link :,)
12.Have you ever had a fic translated?

i think having bi/multilingual characters randomly use non-eng expressions, or titles is cringe sometimes lmao. im no expert and i still dont know how to properly translate that kind of mannerism, bcs yeah i get it, sometimes it slips out. for now i just describe it literally in text like "character exclaimed in [language]" / "character couldn't help the [language] curse they let out in shock."
19.First fandom you wrote for?
dnp
20.Favorite fic you've written?
all time fave is my 2021 fireside fest entry (choke on a heart up in smoke) my current fave is my brigerton/p&p au (radical & righteousness)

sorry if there are repeat tags im not following who has done this (maybe like this if u want me to tag you in these games! but consider yourself tagged alrdy if u want to do this)

#ffs brain just ffs#wolfstar#it's almost entirely wolfstar#there's one remus/tonks but tbh it's probably wolfstar end game#Chamber of secrets one is technically not wolfstar because I'm helping my partner write it and my partner hasn't decided how to handle it#my partner may kill sirius or remus or both it's mostly drarry it's not mine#james sacrifice shouldn't be focus wolfstar but lets be honest it will be#the primary school for wizarding children yeah let's be honest it'll end up being wolfstar *sighs*#tell me you have a hyperfixation without saying you have a hyperfixation...#wip game
