Summary
Like a moth to flame, Remus Lupin had been Sirius Black’s light. Different from him in every way, Sirius couldn't help but be drawn to the other. But after exposing his best friend's secret and nearly getting another student killed, Sirius finds himself shut out from the world he once knew and is forced back into the world of his blood purist family. With little left to fight for, how will Sirius handle a summer of his parent's demands, and will Sirius ever be able to earn his friends forgiveness and rekindle the relationships he once had?

Summary
I am on hiatus! I will be updating this again, just less frequently. Thanks to all the support!
----
Harry wanted to tell Snape that he was a freak and freaks don't get touched like this. Snape was making a mistake and Harry felt guilty, like maybe he had accidentally tricked Snape into being nice. Just like how he tricked the wizarding world into thinking he was somehow capable of being some savior, even though he couldn’t defend himself against his muggle uncle.- Language:

Summary
Minerva McGonagall is a straightforward woman.
She’s the transfiguration professor, the head of Gryffindor, and a damn good teacher.
Sirius Black is a mosaic.
He’s a million shards of glass pieced together with gold trimmings. He’s a piece of art, meant to always be seen and never be heard.
—
Or, a fic about Sirius and McGonagall that I had no right to make. This fic is for year one, but I might write more if it goes well. I do not have a beta unless my inner demons count.

Summary
The Dursleys have had enough and decided well, since Harry is now a teenager surely he can work for his own keep and sent him off to get a job as they will no longer be providing him with his needs (not like they did that anyway) and surely he can start helping pay the bills. Harry fortunately found a job that is nearby, a grocery store. As Harry settles in on this new routine he gets used it until one day on the checkout line he runs into the last person he wants to see.
"P-professor Snape?"
"Potter!"
For Harry it appears to be that things seem to be getting worse but finds that perhaps this is the start of something good.

Summary
After a dark curse, the wizarding world is left barren. Facing extinction, the Purebloods subjugate the muggles, searching for the rare muggleborns—the only witches able to reproduce.
Raised in the Nott household as a pampered pet, Hermione is forced to enter the Trials as she comes of age—a competition created for pureblood wizards to claim a breeder. Determined to win her, Draco Malfoy only knew two things: she belonged to him, and he’d destroy anyone who tried to take her.
But the cries of the enslaved muggles pierce through Hermione's comfortable life, causing her to reexamine everything she thought she knew about her world and the people in it. She soon discovers that the ancient call of magic and vengeance cannot be denied.
Plot inspired by the Prince of Egypt, with themes from the Handmaid's Tale.

Summary
“I’m thinking of ending things.”
James pressed his lips together hard as he fought the urge to suck in a breath at the words. He instinctively reached for his binder of prepared materials and began to flip through it as if it would have the answer, rustling the pages frantically as he did.
“Hello?”
James flinched. “Um, hi, yes sorry it’s uh-- it’s my first day.”
A pause. Then, dry as a bone: “Brilliant. You’d think they’d at least train you to tell people not to kill themselves before handing you a phone.”
James froze, then panicked. “Oh God-- you’re right, I mean, of course-- I didn’t-- oh, shit, I just--”
James’s rambling was interrupted by a quiet sound, over so quickly he almost missed it.
The caller had laughed.
At him.
OR
A muggle college AU where James is a Psychology student who starts working at a crisis center. His first caller is dry, guarded, and somehow familiar, despite being a perfect stranger. Night after night their conversations continue, blurring all the lines between them, until the caller finally makes a choice that changes both their lives forever.

Summary
Regulus is supposed to join Sirius' band when he starts Hogwarts. Regulus is also supposed to be a pureblood Slytherin. He's only able to fulfill one of those things.
Sirius thinks he betrayed him, his mother thinks he's a gluttonous disappointment, and James Potter is in love with Lily Evans.
The only time he feels like he can breathe is when he's with his friends. When they play his songs together and his lyrics come alive, he feels alive. So, they start a band. It's not like anyone will find out.

Summary
Draco Malfoy is cursed.
Ever since Fenrir Greyback ripped him to shreds, Draco has transformed into a monster every month on the full moon. The change is painful, and living with Lucius Malfoy might be worse. But Draco is strong. He doesn’t need anyone, especially not Remus Lupin and his ragtag group of rebels.
Remus Lupin might be the only person in the world who understands what Draco is going through—but he has enough on his plate, between the still-raging wizarding war, the publicized nature of his status as a werewolf, and his best friend, Sirius Black, who Remus might think of in a more-than-friendly way. He certainly can’t take in a seventeen-year-old Death Eater—can he?
