Fic: Over the waste of waters; like a veil for buckle_berry

[anothersaturday.livejournal.com]

Title: Over the waste of waters; like a veil
Author: saraannette
Written for: buckle_berry
Rating: PG-13
Prompt: 'At the enchanted metropolitan twilight I felt a haunting loneliness sometimes, and felt it in others... in the dusk, wasting the most poignant moments of night and life.' --F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby. Plus!! Banter, slagging each other off, the other Marauders, silliness, UST, and angst with a happy ending.
Summary: Five Decembers, five vignettes about twilight and loneliness and wasted moments.
Warnings: Drinking and naughty language
A/N: The title comes from a description of dusk in Lord Byron's Don Juan (canto II, st. 49). Love, love, love to amazingly_me and harajuku_girl for beta-reading, encouragement, and general awesomeness. And, um... I think this is really pushing the upper word limit. I'm sorry. I am the queen of tl;dr. Ask anybody on my flist, ha. ETA: I just realized I completely screwed up one of the dates. LOL, fail. It's fixed now.

Happy holidays, buckle_berry!

Title: Almost Dark Again
Author: paulamcg
Written for: daphnaea
Beta: My incredible ishonn. Thank you so much again for all your… spring buds!
Rating: PG
Prompt: The prompt I claimed was an Order mission (first war), but perhaps this fulfils a bit better the ambiguous request for ambiguity (bonus: some degree of resolution). Someone also receives an owl and received one off-stage.
Summary: December 1979 has defeated Remus to the point of taking up quarters at Sirius’s, whom he can’t expect back from an Order mission yet.

( Perhaps he’s charmed the moon )

Prompts: Hanging up lights; Eggnog; and the following quote
"And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled
And paced upon the mountains overhead
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars."
--When You Are Old, W.B. Yeats
Summary: Christmas after Christmas, Remus waits for Sirius.
Any other notes, warnings, etc.: Thanks to unbroken_halo and r_grayjoy for inspiration and plot help; gingertart50 for the Brit-pick; angela_snape and llpotter for the beta; and bewarethesmirk for last minute help.
