( btw, voldemort does not exist in this universe bc fuck that guy, right? )

  • after hogwarts, remus is determined to get a job
  • he knows it will be tough, he knows he’ll be treated like garbage, but he had to rely on other people’s charity for too long and he just wants to prove himself
  • lily, peter, james and remus all pretty much immediatly find jobs they love
  • but remus is struggling to even be allowed to be a waiter
  • wizarding jobs immediatly reject him : even with the registry being kept secret, they look at his frequent sick leaves and immediatly make the connection
  • muggle jobs are no easier : people are put off by the thick scars on his face and his mysterious chronic illness
  • and everytime remus sees his boyfriend coming home happy from work, he feels a little lower
  • everytime he cant pay his half of the rant or his part of the grocery shopping, shame creeps up on him
  • james insists on supporting him, claiming that’s it’s just temporary, but it had last for two years now and there is no evidence it’s about to stop
  • it all escalates until he gets a new rejection letter filled with insults and threats and he just breaks down
  • he refuses to get back at home for three entire days, sirius is loosing his shit
  • finally, him and sirius meet to really talk
  • and sirius all but begs him to take a break with the work search and to stop accepting every slur and threat just to get underpaid short stints in terrible conditions
  • remus comes home, and for 6 months he just stays there
  • he’s being the nice stay-at-home husband : cooking and cleaning and gardening and taking care of harry when needed
  • after that, he is hesitant to try to work again, but he is feeling useless just staying at home ( even when sirius reassures him that he is being plenty useful )
  • so he tries volunteering for charities
  • and people are a bit hesitant to take him in, sure, but they need the help
  • he gets to work in charity shops and kitchens, and with kids
  • he loves it, obviously
  • its not perfect : he is still relying on james and sirius’ money, but at least he is doing something
  • he feels so much better, strangely, after an unpaid shift at the charity shop than an underpaid one at a grocery store
  • and eventually, he figures out that he really loves working with kids
  • so harry and a few friends’ kids become the first students of his small unofficial school for magical kids
  • he only has 5 or 6 students, but he is having fun and he is actually getting paid and it’s amazing
  • he still doesnt make much, but he is paying his entire part of the bills for the first time
  • and he can even occasionally get sirius or his friends a present and hes so proud everytime and I HAVE A LOT OF FEELINGS ABOUT THIS OKAY

Hi there! Do you have any smutty wolfstar recommendations? I would really appreciate that :)))

thewolfstarlibrary:

Do I ever! I’m going to separate these into plottier and pornier categories to make things more manageable, but everything on this list definitely has some top-tier smut.

I also have NC-17 and PWP tags.

Plottier (but still fairly porny):

everything by xylodemon, especially Black Velvet if you want straight-up hot-like-burning PWP

Boiling Point by persica (Six hours locked in a room with someone you love. It’s the worst kind of hell imaginable.)

Burns Night by thistlerose (Blackmail, kilts, food art, public sex, light bondage, voyeurism, and poetry. Some national holidays are more fun than others.)

For Educational Purposes Only by lls_mutant (A frigid Remus being taught sex by Sirius.)

The Man in the Moon by thamiris (Sirius loves Remus, loves him nightly with the curtains drawn against the moon.)

Oh, Tuesday by librae (Hogwarts defiled. Children traumatized. A week in the life of Sirius and Remus.)

Our Blood, Still Young by templeg (It’s nearly the last day of fifth year, and Sirius really isn’t looking forward to the summer. Get-together fic (spoiler alert, but really, what were you expecting?) set over the summer of 1976 and into the autumn.)

The Prodigal by midnitemarauder (Sirius returns from the Veil)

Sing My Heart by persica (Some people press their memories between the pages of a scrapbook. Sirius has music.)

Slow Burn by veeagainst (An Order mission for 21-year-old Remus and Sirius brings tensions between them to a head.)

Who Wrote the Book by canis m (Domestic bliss)

Pornier (but still fairly plotty):

And You Shall Know the Fragrance of His Lips by sphinx101 (Granted, it is quite rich for a prefect of all people to sneak out of the castle in the middle of the night to have a tryst with his boyfriend. Then again, Remus can’t remember when he has last had a better idea.)

The Best Man by rochefort (Sex in a very public place)

Blood Rush by gryffindorj (Sirius has found that since leaving school there is a little less of a specific kind of excitement in his life.)

Clockwise by saucery (Set during that wonderful, in-between time when Sirius and Remus had just graduated from Hogwarts, but hadn’t yet lost James and Lily. Or indeed each other.)

Defining Accio by anniesj (Sirius is trying to study. Remus is decidedly unhelpful).

Football Isn’t Anything Like Quidditch by rian (Remus thinks about Sirius, and everyone except Peter thinks that football is not even the slightest bit like Quidditch.)

Let Us Be Silent, That We May Hear the Whispers of the Gods by gyzym (Remus Lupin doesn’t want to hear it–not tomorrow and not yesterday, but certainly not right now.)

The Merits of Toast by sheafrotherdon (There is marmalade. And there is boysex. Utter PWP.)

Periapsis by musesfool (Remus has an apparently endless supply of hot water in his flat. Sirius takes advantage.)

Play It Again by kaybeyk (Sirius likes to watch Remus play the piano)

Quiescent by littlemissgg (“Be still.”)

A Remedy of Remus by katscratches (Sirius has had a Very Bad Day. Remus helps him to forget about it.)

Shh by yeaka (Sirius wakes Remus up on Christmas morning.)

Shift by yeaka (Remus is in heat, and Azkaban has changed Sirius.)

Size Matters by rewrites (It was an inside joke among the four Marauders that werewolves were well-endowed. Remus has a big problem. Sirius can’t help himself.)

Slackened Ties by persica (Boys, school uniforms, and a heat wave.)
