It's the summer of 1976. Sirius Black is trying to carry on as normal against the increasing, creeping threat of war outside the castle walls by distracting himself with friends, girls and, thanks to his best friend, the Slug Club. However as the summer stretches on and the heat increases, Sirius may begin to realise that some differences just run too deep.

"I have something to ask you," Iain says one afternoon. He reaches over Sirius to turn down the radio - which Sirius pouts at him for, as he'd been listening to that song, thank you very much. Iain just rolls his eyes fondly and plants a kiss on his forehead, which does, predictably, make him stop pouting. His heart wasn't in it anyway.

"What's up?" he replies, sounding impressively relaxed for someone who's catastrophizing as hard as he is.

"Would you laugh at me if I asked you on a date?"

... Okay, that wasn't one of the questions he'd been anticipating.

The fifth and final instalment of a body from the balcony, aka Iain-verse.

Alex Watson was kind, independent and thrustworthy Gryffindor, she was in the same year as the Marauders. But she was not like other girls, she perfectly knew how handsome was Sirius Black, but she chose to resist his charms and help other girls when their hearts were broken by infamous heartbreaker Sirius Black.

Little did she knew that Sirius suddenly was interested in her, just because he had heard some wild rumours about her from other boys, for example, how mysterious she is, how she treats them and how wild she is in bed. Alex's charisma made her special in Sirius's eyes.

Is love possible between a heartbreaker and a girl who tries to live peaceful life and not get hurt?

He only wished Harry was there. They had left on bad terms, but it did make him rethink things. If it weren’t for him, the three of them would be more than miserable right now. Thanks to Harry, he watched his beautiful wife open another present on her small tummy and fussed over a bright green onesie.

It reminded him of that Christmas long ago he’d forced himself not to think about. It was too painful. Now, for the first time in ages, it made him smile.

while he turns, his jaw breaks to make way for voracious teeth that fit so perfectly in his new mouth

Charlotte Malkin is real. Was real. Strangest thing. 

Life at number 12 Grimmauld Place is becoming tense and Sirius is eager to begin his first year at Hogwarts.

Meanwhile, he encounters a ragtag team of old pseudo-pirates, who get caught up in the consequences of their past exploits, and a book that should have stayed a myth.

Time was cloudy, deceptive, and sporadic, a gift and a curse that James Potter and Regulus Black were too familiar with. They knew they were on borrowed time from the beginning— but both were determined to make every minute worth the inevitably crushing end.

Remus' patronus served as the constant reminder that even in elation, he had limitations. Limitations that were hell bent on ruling his every choice, his every decision... until she came along...

The Dementor whispered in his head: ‘She would never want you that way.’

"It shouldn't be this hard, Black," she said softly. 

"It really shouldn't, Evans." 

Because all actions have consequences.
