• the lionhearted by cindergal, pg.
Sirius is a Slytherin who thinks he has nothing in common with Remus Lupin. When they share detention together in sixth year, he finds out how wrong he was.

i am still all aflail with love for this. sirius is a slytherin but still with a rebellious streak a mile wide that has alienated him from the rest of his house, because sirius wouldn't be sirius without one, a remus who keeps pressing until sirius starts confiding in him, and a james who is an obnoxious prat, but a friendly, loyal and very gryffindor sort of obnoxious prat (as james ahould always be, as far as i'm concerned) and i love how he and sirius clicked despite the house differences. and just, okay, go read it.

• naughty pictures by woldy, nc-17.
Harry finds a collection of pictures in Remus' trunk, but who is the anonymous man that Remus is consorting with?
being the photography (and photo!fic) whore that i am, i was delighted to see that someone had picked this prompt. take a set of really, really naughty r/s pictures, add harry discovering the relationship through said pictures and you got yourself a winner. what i particularly loved about this is that harry doesn't just stay with the pictures (as he doesn't know who is the man with remus), he decides to be inquisitive for once and start asking questions, not only for teddy, but also for himself.
