If you let me love you when the timing is right by CourtneyCourtney

Summary
They don’t talk about it. It was too weird, they agreed. They didn’t mean it, and it shouldn’t have happened, but that doesn’t mean that one night wasn’t incredible for Nicky.
Nicky truly hadn’t thought about Joe that way before. Nicky wasn’t fighting an attraction to Joe while fighting him in their theology class. He didn’t add two and two until they had already made four. After that, it felt wrong thinking about his best friend after they already promised they wouldn’t ruin their friendship. What if something had happened, though? What if something happened, and it wasn’t that different from what was already happening now?
(Written for a prompt on the kink meme: Nicky and Joe are close friends in university who hook up one night after a few drinks, but decide that they don’t want to risk their friendship. Years later, after a series of unsatisfying relationships with other people, they’re both regretting not giving it a go but each of them is nervous to be the one to bring it up.)

This is absolutely amazing. The writing and the characterisations and the story. An actual romantic comedy with feelings? Bravissimo!

I just absolutely love this. It is the first story I read coming into the fanfiction for this fandom and it was exactly what I was looking for. Well-written, well thought-out, and the background that I was needing.

Summary
Sirius Black has spent nearly a decade falling for someone he’s never met. Still unable to let go after countless failed meet-up attempts and an ever-growing list of red flags, he does the unthinkable: he emails a reality TV show to try and finally uncover the truth.
Or: It’s the wolfstar catfish AU absolutely no one asked for!

Summary
“Have you ever heard of pirates, Regulus?” Sirius asked, not answering his brother’s question.
“Yes, of course.”
“Pirates often don’t get married and instead find love on the sea, with one another.”
“Oh,” Regulus said, fairly unfazed. “So, you wish to run away and become a pirate then?”
“Well no, not necessarily,” Sirius replied, “but I do want to love like one.”
✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧
Sirius Black is crown prince to the throne and is put into an arranged marriage with his cousin whom he is desperate to escape from. Fortunately for him, he's able to strike a deal with a notorious pirate by the name of Captain Lycaon that grants him his freedom and the captain all the gold he could ever want. Though, things go awry quickly when neither man is as the other expects him to be, setting off a chain reaction of drama, angst, and love.

I genuinely love this story. The charactisation and the development and the writing... Bravissimo! That's all I think I need to say. I mean, who doesn't love a bit of Pirate Captain Remus Lupin and Runaway Prince Sirius Black, eh?

All Remus has ever known is that he must go up. He doesn’t know why. Doesn’t know where this command comes from but he follows it either way.
He must go up.
It’s easier said than done.

Its cute lighthearted fluff about Remus being a modern London mudlarker and Sirius being utterly smitten with his history geek.

Summary
It was Sirius’ turn to smile; a smug and playful grin. In that moment two things became transparently clear to the God of Death:
One: it was no wonder that everyone, mortals and immortals and all of the creatures in between, were so taken with the young new god.
Two: Remus wasn’t an exception to that rule, much to his own surprise.

Summary
The four-by-four heaves its way down long, twisting lanes, little more than dirt tracks scuffed into the surrounding fields and hemmed in by serpentine walls of flat, grey stone. They truly are in the middle of nowhere: the countryside rushes past, all rolling green hills and vast, endless skies, and it's odious. Sirius wants to murder James with his bare hands.
Sirius and James accidentally find themselves on a Yorkshire farm during lambing season. The farmer’s son thinks that’s a bit annoying, actually.

Love it, love it, love it, love it! This is genuinely one of the best stories out there, and the fact that it's set in the Dales makes it even better. Deffo worth a few hundred more reads or so.

Sirius is finally competing in the Winter Olympics, and though that is normally enough to make any man throw themselves at the skier's feet, Great Britain's beautiful elusive figure skater does not seem impressed. After Remus turns him down, Sirius has to figure out how to win over the man he's had a crush on for four long years.
This fic is finished, I'll be publishing a chapter for the next few nights so no need to wait long!

Sirius Black has quite a few issues: He can't accept that he is only the lead singer of The Marauders half of the time, can't resist drawing attention to himself, and definitely can't resist Remus Lupin.

Summary
When Regulus requests Sirius come home for the holiday, Sirius accepts. Never mind the fact that he hadn't seen his mother in nearly six years, or that the rest of his family could be difficult to swallow.
To Sirius' relief Remus volunteers to join him. "I go where you go." They're not a couple, despite what the Black family seems to insinuate. But how Sirius wants.

When Padfoot Met Moony by WolfstarGarden

Summary
When Remus Lupin met Sirius Black for the first time, he very nearly killed him. Now, it wasn’t entirely his fault, something he would maintain for the rest of his life, and Sirius being as dramatic as he was would often remind the taller, tawny-haired man of his very harrowing near-death experience at the front bumper of his car.
The truth of it was, Sirius Black was perched on the kerb wearing a bowler hat, poufy shirt-sleeves, a vest, a monocle which actually worked and was the reason his vision was blurred in the one eye, skin-tight leather trousers, and he had a skateboard under his arm. Remus Lupin was behind the wheel of his car which was held together by prayer and twist-ties, and was cruising along at a reasonable speed considering London traffic, when the strange steampunk-themed man dropped the skateboard to the pavement and rolled into traffic.
