Summary
Klaus is shaky, loose-lipped and incoherent. It’s been seventeen years since his siblings have seen him, and they weren’t sure what they were expecting, but...
It wasn’t the man muttering to himself before them, twitching like a junkie Allison would cross streets to avoid and Diego would throw in jail with disgust.
(In which the Klaus that shows up to Reginald’s funeral is a little...different.)

Summary
The first time Klaus crushed up a pill, it was with the blunt edge of a pocketknife on a Krav Maga textbook, which felt a bit like a violent omen.
It was a snow that burned like fire.

Summary
Klaus’ head feels like a hot bowl of soup. He has a head-rush like he’s been held upside down for a few minutes and his blood is warm like Grace’s tomato bisque, pooling in his brain like a liquid hug. In the Hargreeves household, physical affection is rare, and this high feels like one long continuous hug on his touch-starved nerves.
And...
Would it be so bad if he never let go?OR, Klaus’ introduction to opioids.

Summary
The room is spinning and Klaus is drowning in vodka vertigo. He fights the nausea to search frantically for Ben. Ben would ground him. He does this for what feels like hours before realizing that Ben can’t help him, because Ben is dead and Klaus will never see him again until he is too.
Oh. It’s time for another shot.
OR, In which Klaus’ alcoholism in Season 2 is actually addressed.

Summary
Sirius is dead, but Harry's doing alright: between a brand new Quidditch Captaincy, private lessons with Dumbledore, and increasing suspicions about Draco Malfoy, he's got enough to keep him busy. And if an uncomfortable encounter with a classmate ends up leaving him with another challenge to face and even more secrets to keep, well...he's still fine.
Really. He is.

Summary
He was smiling to himself, eyes still closed, and Sirius hadn't known at the time - but by Fifth Year would realise well enough - where this Remus had come from. He was always a little wild, somehow both impossibly distant and blindingly, achingly present, all at once, and in the beginning Sirius had ascribed it entirely to Remus's own innate nature or some sort of slight chemical neurodivergence that made him just a little bit more than the rest of them; a little bit magic, a little bit mad. Freer than the others. A tempest in an otherwise still ocean.
The boys at boarding school, told in libraries and cloisters and too much alcohol and the way Remus thinks none of it matters, anyway.
