    Summary

    Rozanov cocked his head. “You speak Russian? Or just the curse words?”

    “Yes, I speak Russian,” he snapped, defensive and angry. He knew that it had been a mistake to even try to be friendly with Rozanov. “Why? Do I not look Russian to you?” He scoffed.

    “No, not really,” Rozanov said. Some of his teammates laughed, although they mostly looked surprised that Shane was speaking to them at all. Rozanov didn’t laugh, though. “Are you Russian?”

    “Go fuck yourself.”

    +++

    Despite an inauspicious start, when Russia’s Ilya Rozanov learns that Canada’s Shane Hollander is fluent in Russian at their first World Junior Championships tournament, it changes everything and sets them on a different course. Instead of being branded as rivals from the very beginning, Ilya and Shane start off as friends.

    And, after all, a little friendly rivalry never hurt anyone, did it?

    Summary

    He runs his fingers over the ball of string, feeling the way it catches on his calluses. “So, what? I have to find the center of the labyrinth, then? Or what?”

    Ariadne finally puts down her pencil and sits back, looking right at him. “Or you don’t wake up.”

    Arthur pauses, eyeing her. “…That isn’t how it works.”

    Summary

    “I’m here because I want to be.”

     

    Sirius shook his head. His long hair, disheveled from sleep and years of neglect, swung about his face. “No one wants to be in this fucking house.”

     

    Remus wondered, again, what post-Azkaban Sirius would look like once he had his freedom. “Right,” Remus said dryly. He sipped his tea. “I stay for the tasteful Black decor.”

     

    Grimmauld Place, regrets, and moving forward.

    This is the story of how Sirius Black finds a dog.

    Except, it's not really that.

    Summary

    “So what’s he like? Full of it? Arrogant?”

    “Yes,” he says, because he thinks that is a fair assessment. Sirius Black is full of it. He is arrogant. He’s also entitled and needy and smug. He’s talented, reckless, moody, selfish, childish, charming and sweet, and a million different other things Remus is trying to wrap his head around.

    Sirius Black is hard work.

     

    Remus Lupin is a successful documentary filmmaker who is assigned to make a fly-on-the-wall documentary featuring Sirius Black - one of the world's most brilliant footballers - as he competes in the European Championship.

    All does not go smoothly.

    --

    Fair warning: Remus knows nothing about football and neither do I. Also, this is about football in the global sense. I can't call it soccer. I just can't.

    This will not be hugely explicit, but it will be mature. I am an adult. If you are not, or you feel uncomfortable with adult themes, please steer clear.

    I read and love all comments but seem to struggle to reply to them in an acceptable timeframe. Sorry about that.
