At first, she does not think the scarred and quiet Remus Lupin will put a rut into these plans. That is, until she stumbles upon him bleeding and broken in the infirmary. She doesn't know why he shows up once a month looking like he's gone through hell, but by healing him, she finds herself falling for someone her family would never approve of. As her brother Regulus is brought into dark magic, and her future seems to be already written into the Black family archives, Anastasia has to make a decision: to guide Regulus from his dark path or to leave it all behind in hopes of a happier life. disclaimer: a slowburn if i've ever seen one, also contains mature subjects/ themes (more detailed on first chapter) a painful slow burn, focused more on life of oc rather than romantic sub-plot, long-haul fic started: january 1, 2021. ended: tbd. rankings: #36 in remus lupin #74 in sirius black #2 in remus

𝒊𝒏 𝒘𝒉𝒊𝒄𝒉 the butterfly of the rosier family finally attends hogwarts and captures something pretty

❛ It's not like Carina would go and do something stupid like falling in love with Prongs, would she?❜ It was a terrible idea to date someone who'd been in love with someone else for years, even if it was fake. But James Potter was desperate. It was already their seventh year, and he still couldn't get Lily to give him the time of day. Carina was his last hope to catch her attention, and she also happened to be one of his closest and dearest friends. If she simply agreed to help him out, what's the worst that could happen? Carina Lennox was the kindhearted witch liked by just about everyone in Hogwarts, with just enough of a dose of reckless bravery to land her in Gryffindor. When she agreed to James's scheme to woo a certain redhead, she thought that at best she'd help bring two of her closest friends together, and at worst they'd have a bit of school drama. But as the war closes in on them all, they'll have far more to worry about than a bit of school romance.
