⚽️THE HOLY TRINITY🏒
I just finished reading WrappedUp’s new football!au, and I just felt like I had to do a celebratory post to what in my opinion is the ✨Wolfstar Holy Sport Trinity✨ These fics all feature a different sport at elite level, they are written by different authors - but they definitely kinda have of the same vibe! In sum, these are sport!au classics! And so I present:
Sweater Weather, by @lumosinlove (156k)
Very popular. Rightfully so. This long fic is a Hockey!AU: Sirius is a professional hockey player - Remus is the team’s physical therapist. This fic is incredibly well written, and has apart from its beautiful portrayal of wolfstar also gotten a lot of love for its OCs! I had a great time reading this fic, although it was perhaps a bit too smutty for my taste at some points. So be aware of that! Otherwise, go ahead and read this masterpiece!🏒🏒🥅

Also a popular comfort read! And I can totally see why. This Olympic swimmer!AU is just incredibly comforting and soft. I thought it was going to be a bit more enemies-to-lovers, but the boys get over that part pretty quickly. To be honest, this fic is probably a little too happy for my taste, if you know what I mean (addicted to angst?? Me?? Whatever do you mean?). But that’s just my personal opinion!! This fic is super well written, so you should definitely give it a go! Just be aware that this fic is also quite explicit! But If that’s your cuppa, then you’ll love this!🏊♀️🏊🏊♂️ (P.S. James is TO DIE FOR in this fic!!)
The Player’s Secret, by WrappedUp (52k)
A fresh and shiny football!AU from the talented WrappedUp (For all Americans out there, read: soccer). What a joy this fic was! It follows the European Championship, in which Sirius plays for England, and Remus works as a documentary filmmaker. It’s an altogether happy fic, but with just a dash of angst and darkness added to it - which I love! It’s also hot without being overly smutty, which is something I greatly appreciate in a fic. Sounds good? Give it a read! ⚽️⚽️
