Summary
“Please, I was just trying to—” Remus starts again.
“—and I just got custody of him not that long ago and we’re fucking trying, alright? Also, he’s deaf, for Christ’s sake. That’s why he’s—”
The sound of the world drops away, and Remus is extending both of his hands. On the top of each palm is a hearing aid. The other man’s mouth moves for a few more words, but Remus isn’t sure what he’s saying—he’s never been all that great at lipreading. When his pale-colored eyes stumble over his outstretched hands, his face grows flushed. Finally, mercifully, he shuts up.
Or:
Grocery store stocker Remus Lupin teaches Sirius Black, a newly-appointed guardian to his deaf godson, how to use American Sign Language.

Summary
Remus shook his head slowly. “Peter was there. And I saw the body.”
James' stomach dropped. The body. As if Sirius were no more than a discarded shell.
“Well, I didn’t,” James said flatly, crossing his arms. “If I had, I’d have known it wasn’t him.”
“You were a teenager, James,” Remus said gently. “You panicked. You couldn’t have known what would happen that night. When are you going to forgive yourself?”

Until Sirius comes back.
A post-Hogwarts Marauder Era AU about missing memories, love that defies death and the dangerous secrets of the Great and Noble House of Black.

Summary
“He reveals deep and hidden things; he knows what is in the darkness, and the light dwells with him” (Daniel 2:22).
In the span of one year, Laurent lost everything; his parents, his best friend, his brother, his innocence. What waited for him in the shadow of his grief presented itself as love. It takes Laurent three years to figure out that it’s not.
He teeters now on the cusp of revelation, nudged along by Auguste’s return from war and by a budding romance, but will it be enough to pull Laurent out of the shadow?- Language:
