Summary
“I saw him in the papers recently – some ministry thing, nothing sordid or scary – and he’s lost it all!”
“Er, lost all of what?” Remus questioned, still not having made the mental leap that Mary had done in the subjects of conversation. Looking at the faces of the other two people in the room, he wasn't the only one.
Martin Davies had been fit, back in the day, and was an excellent kisser, if Remus recalled correctly. Judging by the scowl on his partner’s face, Sirius was now also recollecting the fact that Martin Davies was an excellent kisser, though his information was secondhand and had largely come from Remus in their fifth year.
“His hair!” Mary squealed, far too happy at the prospect of male-pattern baldness.It's James and Lily's wedding, and Remus is grappling with the realisation that this might be the only time he'll ever get to stand with Sirius at an altar.

Summary
“I hope I was never like that for you and Sirius,” Harry muttered. He stumbled as Remus checked him on the hip, amused disapproval painted across his face.
"Actually, rather than being fussy, you were just the opposite with us. You loved babbling as a baby – couldn’t stop making noise for more than five minutes. When you moved in with us, though…”
Harry’s head tilted questioningly. “I was shy?”
Remus shook his head, still sombre. “Not shy, no. You were just… quiet, after everything.”A story detailing the first few years of Harry's life living with Sirius and Remus. Learning to be a parent is hard, and learning to be patient with yourself is even harder.

Summary
Disowning one’s cousin was much more difficult in practice than in theory. There were multiple elements to consider: disowning them doesn’t necessarily mean cutting contact. The Potter and Black-Lupin households got together far too regularly to justify the hassle of the disownment. Another thing to take into account is that for all intents and purposes, it would be difficult to disown someone who wasn’t, strictly speaking, related to you by blood.
So, Teddy Lupin decided, it seemed as though a more practical approach to this dilemma was warranted.
It's Remus's birthday, and naturally, Teddy and his own group of marauders do their best to ensure that everything goes well.

Summary
“It’s the best course of action, I think,” Sirius cleared his throat. “You’d be close to Harry and able to ensure his safety in closer quarters, and you’d be a bloody excellent teacher. Don’t roll your eyes, you know it’s true. ‘Sides, I know you’re bored to death here when Harry and I aren’t around unless, that is, you’d rather take up knitting.”
He grinned at the grimace on Remus’s face which told him explicitly that Remus would not enjoy taking up knitting.
After fourteen years of raising Harry, Remus Lupin and Sirius Black are faced with a new sort of problem.

Summary
Sirius Black and Remus Lupin were thrust into quasi-parenthood the night that Lily Potter was killed and James Potter was incapacitated. This series will explore the years in which they grow together as a family, overseeing some of Harry's time at Hogwarts and beyond.
While primarily focusing on wolfstar and the circumstances surrounding them, other themes will be explored in this series.
Not all of the fics will be in a consecutive timeline, and you will not necessarily need to have read all of the fics for each individual one to make sense.
Expect liberal amounts of time skips.

Summary
He kisses Essek’s jaw, then the soft spot just shy of his ear. Essek hums and tips his head to guide his lips.
“I can tell you do not want to talk about it,” Caleb mumbles. He kisses the torn lobe of Essek’s ear where Jester has healed it closed; he’ll need to pierce it again sometime if he wants to replace the earring. Caleb thinks this, and moves to kiss his neck again. “But I am going to find it hard to sleep if I don't feel you next to me tonight.”In broad daylight, Essek is attacked. His friends do not know why or by whom until it is too late.
E rating in chapters 1, 5, and 11.

Summary
Caleb moves closer into his space and holds his shivering arms tightly, and rubs some warmth into his shoulders. “Essek, you can feel it, can’t you?”
Caleb noticed it as he left the cottage, once he consciously felt for the sensation. Or rather, a lack thereof. Typically, magic rushes around him like the wind itself, or an ambient scent, or music. It appeals to a different and entirely unnamable sense though, of course. He can feel it, touch it, and manipulate it. It is so constant that it becomes subconscious and beyond notice.
“You can feel it, Essek. It is gone.”Peace is a precious thing, and a fragile thing too. When the unexpected finally strikes Essek's delicate new life, he and Caleb are left adrift and alone and very, very, vulnerable. What are two wizards without magic to do?

Summary
“This is not a negotiation.” Deirta Thelyss’s voice cracked the air like a thunderclap, sharp enough that even her ever-bustling flock of attendants twitched. “You will agree to this marriage, or I will have you cast from Den Thelyss for dereliction of duty. Is that clear?”
Essek held himself stiffly, his shoulders rising in affront. A dangerous lapse of control, considering the woman standing before him, and one he would berate himself for later in the privacy of his tower, but he couldn’t help it. To be bartered off as—as a diplomatic representative of all things. It was absurd, insulting. Was the prestige his accomplishments brought to the den not enough? The Bright Queen herself had awarded him the title of Shadowhand for the advancements he’d made to the field of dunamancy, advancements that had secured countless victories in the war. Why should he have to upend his entire life to accommodate some human he’d never even met?

Touching Sentiments (Chronological) by Chanse (SpottedEnchants)
Fandom Critical Role: Exandria (Web Series)
08 Feb 2026
Summary
The Mighty Nein are very comfortable with one another, boundaries established and reconfigured and settled well before Essek finally joins them.
Casual touch is a given with them; proximity was a necessity for safety in their early days. This, however, stands in stark contrast with Essek’s many decades. Walls, barriers, layers, space. Separation kept Essek safe.
It’s not that he hates touch, no. It had simply grown unbearable after so long without. Unexpected or held for too long, it burned.
And then they won him over, slowly, over time, as they are wont to do. Rather, he is one of them now.
(Now in chronological order - posting order found here)

Summary

Essek’s foot then burrows under his heel. Stops.
