Thank you for joining us again at small gifts, for pinching hitting, and for creating a moving, memorable story about Remus’s discovery of an ancient book of magic, The First Astronomer’s Last Book for [profile] elle_ja_belle.

Word count: 1,400
Summary: Having Sirius owe him an apology may have some benefits, but making up is nicer.
Author's Notes: [livejournal.com profile] kingzgurl, thank you so much for stepping up to help with a pinch hit! Here's a little thank you to you for being so awesome. I checked out your sign up from last year for some prompts and went with 1) Sirius sticking his foot in his mouth and figuring how to make it up to Remus; with a side of, 2) Cuddling by the fire; and a hint of 3) Christmas apart.

Word count: 130 (an illustrated ficlet)
Summary: Sirius' heart has always been as big as the city he calls home.
Notes: A huge thank you to you, [livejournal.com profile] chibitoaster, for your pinch-hit! Illogically, perhaps, this was inspired by your wild-card call for "Winnipeg, Canada," which got me thinking about geography. When I saw [livejournal.com profile] brighty had already tackled Winnipeg, this project took another turn. A very happy new year to you, and may it be filled with fannish joys!

Rating: PG-13 for some language and bad sexual references
Contents or warnings (highlight to view): *None – unless the death of a laptop bothers you*
Word count: ~4100
Summary: Non-magical AU where Remus inadvertently (and unknowingly) contributes to Sirius’ procrastination, and is also the solution. Also, known as the one where even without magic James manages to cause explosions of the glittery variety.
Notes: After I finished my first gift I simply couldn’t get this little story idea out of my head, so I finally let it talk me into writing it just so it would be quiet. Also, since I had about two days of warning that there was a bonus round and I wasn’t just writing this for fun (lack of internet coming back to bite me) this is unbeta’d. Please feel free to yell at me for that, I deserve it.
