    Summary

    (It all starts with Peter Pettigrew dying twice.

    First, Peter kills Wormtail (discreetly), and then Sirius kills him (less discreetly).

    Losing a friend is never easy, even amidst the ravages of war, but losing the last of your childhood alongside him is far worse.)

    War is a complicated, messy thing. The Marauders have their fucked up shit to deal with, but they also have each other, and that counts for a lot.

    In my head it has to be Lily lol. Just because both James and Sirius love her too much to try initiating something she might not be comfortable with. I also just think that Sirius and James’ relationship is so complicated that they need that “outsider” to try to help them weave through complicated emotions, and someone to give them the approval. But, obviously just my opinion lol. There is an unfinished fic from a couple years ago that was ultimately supposed to end up an OT4 with Remus, that kind of solidified the Jilypad dynamic for me. It was the fic that sold me on it and Jilypad has been my OTP ever since.

    If you are interested and don’t mind being heartbroken when it isn’t finished here it is: https://archiveofourown.org/works/4885216/chapters/11201404.

    It also has one of the best characterisations of Sirius I’ve seen in a fanfic.

    Very good take. I like more nuanced portrayals of Lily canon does her a disservice by never really getting a chance to grapple with her as a living breathing human rather then a martyr. I read a fic a while back that had a similar take to Lily. With Lily recognising that after Sirius she was the most black and white in her thinking in the group. The few things we have about her in canon strongly suggest this and it is the most interesting take on her in my opinion.

    Summary

    He'd woken up this morning, thirty-eight years old, and realized he had no idea how to be anything other then a warrior or a prisoner. Sirius came back from the dead, helped defeat the Dark Lord, and now he's faced with his toughest challenge yet; making a life for himself.

    "sirius spends most of this sleeping with other people, but it’s definitely a slow postwar love story about sirius learning to be free, to be there for harry, to support recently-separated remus, who is his best friend as well as his eventual lover. the emotion in this fic!"

    Summary

    Sirius grapples with frightening new feelings while Remus copes with the aftermath of an illicit relationship. The Marauders' golden school days are drawing to a close, and war will make men out of boys.

    “This reads a bit grim for a romance,” Sirius muttered, turning a yellowed page.

    “I told you, it’s more of a murder mystery than a love story,” Remus said. “Well, murder-by-proxy. Which is as good as the same thing, really. But read to the end, and then we’ll discuss.”

    An allegory of love, obsession, courage—and murder.

    Brilliant, unique, inspired, compelling. Multi pov that nails character and voice and dialogue, one for re-reading
