It's that time of year again folks! Have I finished my entry from last year? Nope. Did I still write for this year's @marauders-omegaverse-fest? Absolutely I did.
Honestly, I picked back up an idea from last year that I've been toys around with for some time and when I saw the prompt, I literally couldn't resist reviving it.

Pairing: James Potter/Sirius Black
Prompt: #15 - Person A and Person B have been best friends forever. They may be an Alpha and Omega, but they have a system, okay? They go out of town when the other is in heat/rut, and it works. It works. Except they come home early, or the heat/rut lasts longer than usual, and the tiny flat is filled with “fuck me”.
Summary: The one where James and Sirius have been living together for years. They may be an Omega and Alpha, but James has formulated a system. A system that works.
Until it doesn’t.
“I have a system.” James said haughtily. “I have to keep everything updated in order for the system to continue working.”
He set down the bag of takeaway he was holding on the opposite counter. “Sometimes I worry you let the system take up too much space in your brain.”
“Some of us,” James said, sharper than he intended. “Work on deadlines and would completely be out of a job if they didn’t stay on top of their systems.”
“I suppose...” Sirius countered. “But would they really suffer without the job?”
James narrowed his gaze. “No, but they would like not to have to rely on familial money for the rest of their life.”
