    Summary

    It was then that Sirius Black realized he had spent the entirety of his life thus far submerged underwater, a slow and painful suffocation that had carried on for so long he hadn't even realized he was drowning. Not until Remus Lupin showed him what it was like to truly breathe.

    Summary

    "Has anyone, ever, actually managed to stop my big brother from doing something that he wants to do?" Regulus lifted his amber-liquid filled glass, mockingly. "Because that would be news to me."

    Detective Remus Lupin and his partner James Potter are assigned to investigate one of the most notorious crime families in New York City. Their chosen target for getting someone on the inside? Sirius Black.

    Things don’t go to plan, for anyone.

    Summary

    They flitted from one sunshine-filled moment to the next, romping through the cool shaded woods or running the baked coastal path in desperate search of a breeze. Chaotic laughter slowed into sleepy merriment, as each hot day eased into another lazy evening.

    It was the pattern of their summer. And to Sirius, it almost felt like a dream.

    When Sirius Black meets James Potter outside of a busy train station, his future begins to change.

    Summary

    Sirius Black opened his mouth, and a boy almost died. Now the castle is silent, his friends are gone, and all that’s left is guilt curling in his chest like rot.

    Trapped at Hogwarts over the holidays, Sirius unravels. Haunted by what he did, by what it means, and by the growing fear that maybe he isn’t so different from the family he tried to leave behind. The punishment isn’t detention or lectures. It’s waking up. It's living with the truth. It’s still being alive when everything inside him wants to burn.

    Summary

    Sirius Black is larger than life—impossible to ignore. He smokes, drinks, kisses halfbloods, and laughs like he’s above it all.
    His friends think that makes him brave—rebellious and intoxicating in all the right ways.

    But they’d be horrified if they knew what really went on in his head.
    If they saw the real him

    The part that still said "yes, sir" when called. The part that still bled for his brother. The part that wondered if he was already too much like his family to get out clean.

    He works hard to keep the two versions of himself separate. But it’s starting to feel like a losing battle.

    Especially when Remus Lupin is looking at him like he might see past the performance— and doesn’t flinch.

    “Remember the garden party? When she hexed us over ruining our jackets—”

    “Must’ve dreamed that,” Sirius said—too quick, too smooth.

    Because this was a Gryffindor party, and Gryffindors didn’t talk like that.
    Didn’t get hexed by their mothers and call it normal.

    OR

    A canon-compliant, coming-of-age longfic, spanning 1974 to 1979. Found family. Poor coping mechanisms. Slow burn Wolfstar. Morally grey Sirius.
