Countdown to small gifts 3/6: Classic fics and art

[smallgiftsmods.livejournal.com]

What are some classic R/S fics or classic R/S art for you? Fanworks that influenced you when you first discovered the pairing? Fanworks that helped form your image of the characters? Or fanworks that you return to frequently?

THIS REMINDS ME THAT THIS YEAR WON'T BE THE FIRST TIME I CHOSE YOUR PROMPT FOR THE SMALL GIFTS AHAHA

Re: SBP, I enjoyed it, and there were things about it that I probably 'adopted' into my writing, but I don't particularly think it's the perfect R/S fic or that anyone who's ever shipped R/S should have read it. (The Remus and Sirius in SBP is wildly different from the ones I have in my head, too. >.>)

:D

do you remember that post you made once with the tropes? xD (wow i had to dig to find this BUT HERE YOU GO) i'm pretty sure some of those were in SBP. :ppp

THEY WERE THEY REALLY WERE. And how cringe-inducingly shy Remus was in SBP. It's like, I see nothing of that cold bitchy professor in PoA in SBP!Remus at all. >.>

[nerakrose]

He was cripplingly shy. Like. Where does that come from? Not canon. <.< he's a bit of a pushover, yeah, but he's not shy. it's probably why Thom reminds me of Remus so much. They're both pushovers but they both have this fire inside that manifests only when necessary and neither of them are really shy. and they both wear cardigans ahahhaha

Is it bad that I kinda think Remus and Thom are indeed kinda similar, too? And also sometimes I kinda think Rook and Sirius has some similarities what is wrong with me
