    Summary

    "Baby Black, do you maybe not hate me?" James joked in a way that made Regulus feel uncomfortable.
    "You are the most annoying person I have ever had the displeasure of meeting. And that says a lot considering the absolute gems I've met in Slytherin."
    "A joke. Regulus Black made a joke. A mean one, at my expense, but a joke nonetheless... You know baby Black, we could be friends."
    "I would rather fling myself off the Astronomy Tower..."

    ***
    Or: Regulus is concerned about Sirius after their mother orchestrates a horrible attack. And with Sirius out of reach he relies on James Potter to know his brother is okay. Except their meetings keep happening, and their conversations keep falling away from Sirius. Falling for James Potter might just be the most reckless thing he's ever contemplated.

    Summary

    “Please, I was just trying to—” Remus starts again.

    “—and I just got custody of him not that long ago and we’re fucking trying, alright? Also, he’s deaf, for Christ’s sake. That’s why he’s—”

    The sound of the world drops away, and Remus is extending both of his hands. On the top of each palm is a hearing aid. The other man’s mouth moves for a few more words, but Remus isn’t sure what he’s saying—he’s never been all that great at lipreading. When his pale-colored eyes stumble over his outstretched hands, his face grows flushed. Finally, mercifully, he shuts up.

    Or:

    Grocery store stocker Remus Lupin teaches Sirius Black, a newly-appointed guardian to his deaf godson, how to use American Sign Language.

    Summary

    Christmas and yearning.

     

    Sirius almost says, the marble on the tip of his tongue, about how he wants him so much it’s a permanent ache; a broken rib in his chest. How he just wants Remus there, beside him. He doesn’t understand why Remus will sit next to him on his bed, year after year, and look at him the way he does — something helpless and honest but maybe just a trick of the light — only to pull away from Sirius for weeks at a time, citing studying as an excuse and leaving Sirius helplessly alone; dog left out in the cold, waiting. He keeps waiting. He pretends he isn’t.

    Summary

    At five-years old, Remus Lupin is kidnapped by Pirate Captain Fenrir Greyback and thrown aboard a ship full of thieves and murderers. Over the years, Remus earns his reputation as a formidable navigator - never speaking in public, and always keeping his face covered by a mask.

    One thing is certain: there is no one who hates Remus more than wealthy aristocrat, Sirius Black.

    When Remus flees Greyback's ship and tries to forge a new life for himself, it's just his luck that Sirius finds him there too. But Sirius has never seen Remus' face. He doesn't know of Remus' true identity - that 'Moony' is the same pirate he considers his enemy.

    To survive, Remus must hide who he really is, even if it means suffering the company of a man he'd rather kill.
