Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love! ❤️
Hi! Thank you for the message and the ask!
This is way harder than it should be because I have written across fandoms on and off for 20+ years. So I’ll pick five but it isn’t really a ranking, per se.
1. The Lupins AU. I’m including them all here, though I linked to Holy Water. This Remus and Hope have my heart, the pair of them, and I love the dynamic as the open up their family, both in loving and in sometimes painful ways. But Remus and Hope. 💕

2. How Long ‘Til My Soul Gets It Right

First of all, I love a Bring Black Back. It’s my favorite trope. I also love all the parts that come before that, how Remus and Sirius try to navigate Grimmauld Place together. (I also love a Grimmauld Place fic.) The first part of this fic is as lovely to me as the second half.

I’ve just listened to the amazing podfic of this recently and I forgot how absolutely soft Remus and Sirius are for each other here. I was so worried to enter this with an established relationship but was told established relationships are underrated, and they really are.

This fic has got to be twenty years old or more. It’s my most popular fic by hit count and it was during its time, too. I think it still holds up. 💜 It was a POA AU before those were a trope.
5. The Girl From the North Country (The One Companion Who Wasn’t Remix)

For a little seasoning, also an old fic that received little attention (likely due to the mix of fandoms) but that I still love. It’s an A Wrinkle in Time Universe/Doctor Who crossover the posits that Meg Murry could have been a companion to the Doctor and never made that choice, though she knew him in different iterations during both their lifetimes. We need more Meg Murry in our lives.
And the bonus one (I have nearly 90 fics on AO3, have some grace 😂):

This was maybe my second fic in the fandom? I still love the premise, and again, I love a fic set in Grimmauld Place. This fic attempts to wrestle with the idea of Sirius having a patchy memory after Azkaban in a more light hearted way, and again, I think it still holds up.
