    Summary

    “Sirius Black?” he says when he reaches the desk. He says the name as if he didn’t realize who the name belonged to the second he came in. The guy had been all chaos and glory as he walked in. His leather jacket soaked and dripping as he hung it on a knob by the black walls. His hair irritatingly still kept as he let it out of a bun. All of this had sat down and used a chair beside him for his bloody biking helmet. Casually, as if he wasn’t just some god looking for a piercing. Remus had watched it all from over the top of his sketchbook and instantly realized it was his client. The rest of the bookings that morning had been women. He, as the pro he was, had ducked away before the god of a man could see him.

    or

    I saw someone wanting a fic about Remus piercing Sirius' lip and went a little bit too far with it.

    Summary

    “Could I get a name for the order?” Marlene asked.

    “Serious,” the man replied. “Like the star,” he clarified, and Remus mentally scratched out 'Serious' and rewrote 'Sirius' in his head.

    “The… star?” Marlene asked, her pen hovering over the cup as she hesitated.

    “S-I-R-I-U-S,” Remus said. He stocked croissants into the display case, not looking up. “The Dog Star,” he added, “brightest star in the sky, actually. Visible from both hemispheres.” When he looked over, the man– Sirius– seemed surprised, his eyebrows raised as Remus spoke, and when Remus finished, he blinked a few times before smiling lopsidedly.

    “Er– yeah,” he breathed a laugh. “That.” There was a baby on his hip. Somehow, it had taken Remus a second glance to notice that.

    Or, Remus works as a barista and Sirius comes in every morning with the world's cutest baby, and man, these two just wrote the book on mutual pining, huh?

    Summary

    “I’m sorry,” Sirius groaned into his hands “I am a blender full of feelings and tasks and responsibilities and they are all currently splattering all over my mind kitchen like an emotional smoothie because I forgot to put the lid on."

    "God," Remus breathed into his hair, tightening his arms around his shoulders, "You're so dramatic."

    Sirius hiccoughed a laugh; "God, I know. I'm the worst."

    "I love you for it" Remus said softly.

    Summary

    Sirius Black is broke.
    Although it’s not the word he’d use, he can’t exactly deny it.
    His solution?
    Secure a place on one of the most prestigious choirs in the country.
    Easy.
    All he has to do is show up, dissociate his way through ridiculously pretentious choral music, and finally be able to pay his rent on time. No attachment. Stay carefully under the radar amongst the sea of voices.
    That is, until he meets his new choir director.
    Remus Lupin is young, passionate, and disgustingly observant.
    Suddenly, distance seems impossible. Under the radar seems like a childish concept. Not with this alluring, enigma of a man leading him. Sirius finds himself falling into the rabbit hole that is Remus John Lupin before he can help himself. Desire, obligation, and a newfound fascination in choral music follow, and…
    Well.
    Sirius is fucked.
