Remus/Sirius Recs
*staggers home from SO's family Christmas party* That was...exhausting. Too many kids and too many cookies!
Recs are piling up around here to the point where they'd be overwhelming in one post, so I'm going to start with some Remus/Sirius. Hopefully I'll post some more from other pairings tomorrow. Enjoy! :-)
ART
Revelations by nk_aoede (Remus/Sirius, PG)
This is so beautiful -- two boys walking together through the forest on a snowy day, and then Sirius stopping Remus because he has something important to tell him. The artist manages to capture so much story and emotion with no dialogue, just her exquisite watercolor drawings. *happy sigh*
Predatory by thanfiction (Remus/Sirius, NWS)
I seriously sat staring at this piece for a good ten minutes this morning. It's hardly explicit (though Remus and Sirius are shirtless), but to me it's incredibly erotic. I could point you to specific body parts -- Remus's crotch, Sirius's stubble, the delicious arm muscles on both of them -- but I think what makes this so hot for me is the raw need between them, which simply smolders off the screen.
FIC
A Flame in Two Cupped Hands by such_heights (Remus/Sirius, PG-13)
This whole fic is full of delightful things: Sirius pining for an oblivious Remus and therefore feeling grumpy about Christmas, a lovely conversation between Sirius and Lily, James going rather insane with Christmas traditions, and -- my absolute favorite part -- "the least platonic hug imaginable." In other words, this fic will make you happy. :-)
A Little Sincerity Is a Dangerous Thing by daphnea (Remus/Sirius, PG-13)
This starts out like a lot of R/S-getting-together-after-Hogwarts stories, but what made this fic stand out for me was the bittersweetness of it -- there's humor here, and awkward romance, and hurt/comfort, and many good things, but you can also see subtle hints of the trouble to come between them. I could totally imagine this fitting into canon.
Oversleeping by fullmoon_dreams (Remus/Sirius, PG-13, non-magical AU)
This is a sweet story about a non-magical Remus and Sirius meeting each morning on the train as they ride into work. It's the kind of story that makes you feel warm and happy. And do keep an eye out for a charming bit of innuendo involving a sausage. :-D
The Lionhearted by cindergal (Remus/Sirius, PG, AU)
And here's another AU, this time featuring Sirius as a Slytherin who gets to know Remus when they have to serve detention together. The author manages to keep the characterizations intact even though the Marauders are in different houses, and the love story is very sweet.
Enjoy something? Tell the author/artist!
