    Summary

    Steve has had a lot of sex. Eddie has had none. Zero, nada, nothing.

    He can’t tell Steve he hasn’t done it before. He just can’t. He doesn’t even want to think of what Steve’s reaction is. Eddie is twenty one years old and he just had his first kiss a few months ago. Who wouldn’t laugh about that? Especially King Steve, highest body count in all of Hawkins.

    ***

    Eddie is too embarrassed to tell Steve he's still a virgin. Their relationship gets to a point where he knows he can't keep it from him anymore. Steve makes it clear to Eddie that he doesn't mind at all.

    Summary

    After the sudden passing of Lady Dís, Thorin Oakenshield finds himself responsible for two young Dwarves on top of his duties as King of Erebor. He feels hopeless when attempting to juggle all of their educational needs on his own, and reaches out to an old family friend for assistance.

    or

    Bilbo Baggins can't wait for the summer holiday. Even the smallest break from his students has him eagerly reaching out to grab it, but when a new opportunity comes up he finds himself (quite unwillingly) tossed into a new teaching position, in the old Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor, and the prospect of his break slips away from him like sand through his fingers.

    Summary

    “You know I need you, and that's for sure, you’re just the kind of crazy I’ve been looking for.”

    Sirius had devised the perfect plan. Two weeks in London before he started University. Two weeks of bars and football games and time spent out from under his parents gaze. Two weeks without rules or expectations. He concocted the perfect ruse to fool everyone about his whereabouts. And then he met Remus. And suddenly two weeks couldn't have ever been enough time.

     

    (non-magic, AU; Sirius is a sheltered posh boy on his first rebellion, Remus is an attractive stranger who make's him re-think all his plans).

    Summary

    “They’re… chaos,” Remus said firmly. “And chaos is—”
    “Rock and roll.”
    He looked at Sirius sharply, and for once, matched his grin. “Yeah.”
    “Maybe that’s my excuse then,” Sirius said. “I cause a bit of chaos now, and maybe one day, it’ll turn into rock and roll.”

    After losing his mother at age eleven, Remus has spent the better part of the last four years bouncing from school to school or else running around London and pretending as though he wasn't the kind of well-bred boy his father brought him up to be. Now, with his chances all run out, Remus is sent to Hawkings Independent School as a last-ditch effort to clean up his act. There he meets the very people who will set up the rest of his life, and is forced to confront the pieces of himself he'd long thought had been lost.

    (genuinely not apologising for the slow-burn in this fic anymore. You've been warned <3)
