Summary
He feels like shit when he's hungry, and he plays better when he's empty. The cold air doesn't touch him as much. The floodlights turn silvery-soft.
And he likes eating. Keeps his hands busy, mouth busy, mind busy. Something to chew through, putty in the ears.
Go until he can't anymore. Cycle it back out. Be ready.—
OR: Buck's had on-again, off-again bulimia since he was 14.

Summary
“Remus, I understand you want nothing to do with me, I know I don’t deserve anything from you… But Regulus is innocent in all of this. He never took the mark, he never participated in raids, he wouldn’t hurt a fly, I promise. He was just as stuck as I was in that house. You need to protect him, if anything happens to me.”
He’s quiet after that, waiting for an answer. Hazel eyes are fixed on grey, searching for any malice once again. But once again, Remus cannot find any. His confidence and cockyness aren’t on display, he isn’t performing, he’s being real, Remus can tell. He sighs before telling him “I will do whatever I can to protect him Sirius, I swear to you. But you talk about this as if I hold any power within the Order, which I really don’t. Let’s just hope that what you bring to table is enough.”
OR
An AU in which Death Eater Sirius would do anything to protect his brother, like bringing him to his ex to hide in Potter Cottage and going together on the hunt for Horcruxes.

Summary
At some point in Jamie’s life, he is going to have to admit that he doesn’t know what the word traumatizing means. Sure, he could look it up in a dictionary or whatever, but a dry definition from some dead prick isn’t going to explain where the boundary lies between something normal that just felt bad and something that traumatized him, something that shouldn’t have happened at all—if the world was nice and fair.
Really, he’d prefer not to have to figure it out. He’d prefer to just focus on footie and his team and the weird, intense, wonderful thing that might be happening with Roy, and he’d be allowed to have that—if the world was nice and fair.

Summary
“I know this song is about me.” Remus whispered.
Sirius froze. His mouth opened, but nothing came out.
Remus’ eyes searched his. “You wrote it about us. About… everything. About how it feels like it’s burning you alive to want something you’re not supposed to. That’s me, isn’t it?”
Sirius let out a slow, shuddering breath. “Yeah.” His voice cracked. “It’s always been you.”
“You fucking idiot,” Remus muttered, blinking through the blood. “Why didn’t you just tell me?”
Sirius gave a wet, helpless laugh. “I don’t know. I think I thought… if I said it out loud, it would ruin everything.”
“It did anyway,” Remus said. But there was no venom in his tone. Just sadness.As the band finds its sound, Sirius starts to lose his footing, caught between who he was raised to be and who he’s trying to become. With every late-night jam session and almost-touch, the line between friends and something more starts to blur. But building something real with Remus means letting go of the past—and Sirius has never been good at that.
