Week 4 Recap

The Strutting Slut Fest is a prompt-based fest run by The Strutting Stag pairing James Potter with at least two characters.

You Learn to Fall Asleep Alone (10k words, ongoing, rated E) by @cassiaratheslytherpuff Sirius Black/James Potter

A mission for the Order goes wrong, and the threat of losing his best friend forever makes James realise he loves Sirius in a way he’s never let himself acknowledge. For the first time since he was eleven James hurts without being able to go to Sirius for help, because if he does he’s pretty sure he’ll lose the only part of Sirius he gets to have - his friendship.

truth, dare, spin bottles (5,370 words, rated E) by shoopsthereitis  Regulus Black/James Potter, Barty Crouch Jr/Evan Rosier, Regulus Black/James Potter/Barty Crouch Jr/Evan Rosier

Looking back, James can so easily see the threads that led him to where he is now. “If I remember correctly, you really enjoyed me and Evan kissing, didn’t you James?” James’ cheeks go hot at the insinuation. “Oh, really Jamie boy? You liked that?” Barty asks, crawling towards him. Regulus nuzzles into him, pressing a soft kiss to his neck, “It’s okay James, I felt the same way watching you and Barty.” Evan’s still sitting on his chair, legs spread in confidence, “You know, I did clock your question about a threesome, James.” Barty is on the floor in front of them, leaning one arm on the couch looking up at Regulus. Whatever Barty conveyed, Regulus responded with a small shrug and a grin, Barty’s eyes then shifting over to James, “What about a foursome?” OR Regulus throws James his perfect birthday party, including cheeky games from their teen years like spin the bottle and truth or dare. At the end of the night things take a turn and James gets more for his birthday than he could have anticipated

Moonlit Confessions (12,486 words, rated E) by @lunymoonymoo Sirius Black/James Potter, Remus Lupin/James Potter, Sirius Black/Remus Lupin, Sirius Black/James Potter/Remus Lupin

James never understood what Sirius saw in Remus. Was he a bad friend for being jealous? James was there first and could give Sirius anything he wanted, yet Padfoot seemed to be infatuated by their lanky and awkward best friend. That is, until one day something went wrong, and James was bitten by a werewolf. Moony, being one himself, helped him through the transition, and James finally understood.

beautiful (4,955 words, rated E) by @cassetteinability Narcissa Black/Regulus Black/Sirius Black/James Potter

Sirius flashed a wicked grin. “Me and Reggie will polyjuice into James, and we can all go.” “We’ll just switch off whenever we’re ready to Avada ourselves from the wretchedness of the event,” Regulus said, deadpan. James crooked an eyebrow at Regulus. “Maybe you should stay home.” “If Siri gets to be you, so do I.” “I don’t know how I feel about both of my boyfriends looking like me,” James said skeptically. Narcissa let out an undignified cackle before getting off the couch and walking back toward the floo. “Be ready by seven on Saturday.”  Or Narcissa asks James to take her on a date, and she gets three Jameses instead

Sun’s Orbits (3,324 words, rated T) by @jaylienpotter Regulus Black/James Potter, Lily Evans/James Potter, Sirius Black/James Potter, Remus Lupin/James Potter, Sirius Black/James Potter/Remus Lupin

“Never have I ever fancied Potter”, said Dorcas during a drinking game between Gryffindors and Slytherins. James was taken by surprise when most drank. But more than that, he realised that the several people he fancied liked him back. How would he choose?

Spellbound: Love knows it’s way (1,728 words, rated E) by @maxymumu @pink-x-eye James/Lucius Malfoy, James/Regulus Black, James/Severus Snape

The heart wants what the heart wants, and James wants more that anything to follow what it tells him.  Does one’s love ends in one person?

Week 3 Recap

The Strutting Slut Fest is a prompt-based fest run by The Strutting Stag pairing James Potter with at least two characters.

pulling pigtails (4888 words, rated T) by @gracelesslady23 Sirius Black/James Potter/Severus Snape

Severus has been on the receiving end of pranks from bitter rivals, Black and Potter, for close to seven years and believes himself to be well and truly sick of it. But after an eye-opening conversation with Lily (which includes the mention of a very famous muggle adage) Severus finds his perspective shifting. Can it be that Potter and Black are so emotionally repressed that they are using pranking as a form of flirting? And is Severus so lacking in good taste that he finds himself actually enjoying their attention? aka. a silly little starbucksprince rom com where none of them know how to properly communicate their feelings, but it all works out in the end.

Lips Like Morphine  (9708 words, rated E) by @bluedahlia912 Regulus Black/James Potter

He wanted to get closer, needed more, more. James was still just barely hovering over Regulus, one leg positioned between both of his own. Regulus began grinding his ever-hardening cock against the muscular thigh, the frottage doing pleasant things that had him moaning, making sounds he didn’t realize he was capable of making. “Careful love,” James purred, and the sound of his voice nearly sent Regulus over the edge. “Not yet.” OR Regulus Black goes to Potter Castle to repair his relationship with his brother. Little does he know that he has strayed willingly into the midst of vampires; AKA the vampire smut I’ve always wanted to write.

the alchemy (4119 words, rated T) by @ghst-boys Regulus Black/James Potter, Narcissa Black/James Potter, Past Lily Evans/James Potter, Minor Lily Evans/Pandora Lovegood

James Potter is one of the biggest pop stars in the world, and he has what appears to be the perfect relationship with Lily Evans. But what if things are not all they appear to be?

Scandal does funny things to pride (But brings lovers closer) (3801 words, rated E) by @dyke--vader James Potter/Ron Weasley, James Potter/Lily Potter

James knew what he should do. He should accompany Ron to the clinic. He should pay any necessary costs, be there for him as he recovers. They should end things. It was clear that they didn’t know how to stop themselves, how they’d taken every precaution necessary at the start - yet let their relationship wear down the safeguards until they had toed the line too closely. But when James looked at Ron, he couldn’t bring himself to say it.

What Are Friends For (ongoing, 9k+ words, rated E) by @samynnad102687 Regulus Black/James Potter, Barty Crouch Jr./James Potter/Evan Rosier, Sirius Black/Remus Lupin/James Potter, Lily Evans/Pandora Lovegood/James Potter, Regulus Black/Barty Crouch Jr./James Potter/Evan Rosier

James has ADHD and his mind is a mess. The only way to make it go quiet is by being fucked dumb. His friends decide to help. Prompt for Strutting Slut Fest 2024 A 5 + 1 Smut fic: Five times the members of the polycule fucked James stupid and one time James wanted them to but they all took care of him instead.

Venom Dripping In Your Mouth (9443 words, rated E) by @arviyya Regulus Black/James Potter, Barty Crouch Jr./Evan Rosier, Regulus Black/Barty Crouch Jr./James Potter/Evan Rosier

If you were to ask Regulus how he ended up here, he would tell you with conviction that he has no fucking idea. However, that would be a lie. And, now he’s the one with a vampire’s hand digging into his back, his cold lips pressed against Regulus’ ear, voice a growl so low that it’s a mere breath, enough to send shivers to every inch of his body, “For someone who was clearly searching for this, you seem more than a little terrified, sweetheart." Or: Regulus is a bio-chem undergrad fulfilling a humanities credit when he realizes there may be something strange about his professors, James and Evan. He finds more than he bargains for when he decides to test his theory with his best friend Barty in tow, leading to Regulus and Barty becoming human sippy cups.
