Summary
The Marauders always believed they were the heroes of the story. They were wrong.
After a devastating double betrayal—Sirius weaponizing the wolf, and James rejecting a desperate plea for help—Remus Lupin and Regulus Black sever all ties to their past. They flee the wizarding world, seeking refuge in a freezing, squalid Muggle flat on the Welsh coast. They are broke, broken, and entirely done with the conditional love of Gryffindors. When James and Sirius attempt a grand, guilt-fueled rescue mission, they are met with a locked door and a harsh reality check.
But surviving the Muggle world is brutal, especially for a werewolf and a disenfranchised pureblood heir. Enter the Slytherins. Barty, Evan, Dorcas, and Pandora don't bring apologies or golden savior complexes. They bring tax fraud, localized weather wards, highly illegal hormone draughts, New Moon water, and a fierce, uncompromising loyalty.
What starts as a desperate bid for survival transforms into a magical annexation of a Muggle apartment building. It is a story about rejecting the golden narrative, tearing down walls, and building a home with the exact people you were taught to fear.
