When moving into a new flat, it's normal to check the bedrooms for space, the bathrooms for mould and the kitchen for that indescribable thing that will drive your loved ones in even when nothing is cooking on the stove.
Harry, Ron and Hermione, though, should have been much more concerned about the state of their living room because, whether they knew it or not, all of the important bits are going to happen right in the centre of a space they may yet to grow to call their home.
or: a look into the Golden Trio surviving their first year after the end of the War
PITY THE LIVING
is a Harry/Ron/Hermione Slice of Life, Post-War fic which deals with finding your footing when it's finally time for some peace. It's Angst with a Happy Ending and has enough Emotional Hurt/Comfort to pass around. It was written as a part of HP Triad Fest 2024 and...
you can find it on AO3!! happy reading :)
It was such a pleasure to participate in @hptriadfest for the very first time! The prompts were amazing and I had such a hard time choosing, but ultimately, I couldn't be more happy with my final work! Thank you once again to the mods for organising it!

It shows us nothing more or less than the deepest, most desperate desire of our hearts.
Mama, I met a boy, so golden, like the sun / He refused to shake my hand, what’s done can’t be undone.
Mama, I notice all his small beauties, his eccentricities, / The way he never even looks at me.
Mama, I met a boy, so golden, like the sun / His fire burns so bright, I am smothered, undone.
I want this boy, Mama, he’s so golden, so bright. / I want this boy, Mama, like Icarus wanted the sun.

Sirius/Kingsley Masterlist
Anything (ao3) - earthphoenix (roughknuckles)
Pairing: Sirius/Kingsley, Kingsley/Snape/Sirius
Summary: AU where Kingsley and Severus rather Sirius be put to good use then waste away in Azkaban. Kingsley has been dedicated to Severus for years now, he'd do anything for him. Sirius would just do anything - repeatedly - and with enthusiasm as long as it keeps him out of Azkaban.
Don't Forget the Dog (ao3) - flitterflutterfly
Summary: When Dumbledore's plans for the Dursleys go awry, he is forced to give young Harry to Kingsley Shacklebolt to raise. Little did he know how this change would mess up everything.
(Or, Dumbledore is a manipulative bastard, Kingsley is an awesome parent, and Sirius just wants a happy family
Forever in Dog Years (ao3) - earthphoenix (roughknuckles)
Summary: AU, where Sirius survives the arch. Other canon deaths still apply.
Sirius Black lost years of his life while in Azkaban, then he began to lose those he cared about in war. But that was years ago, yet Sirius still fears getting close to people, feeling that as soon as he does, something will happen to take that happiness away from him. But Kingsley has had enough, it's been years, and he thinks it is time for Sirius to see that there is nothing to be afraid of.
Good King, Shacklebolt (ao3) - earthphoenix (roughknuckles)
Summary: Rare-pair. Holiday smut.
Keeping Him Out Of Trouble (ao3) - hogwartshoney
Summary: Although Kingsley was supposed to be the Auror in charge of the search for Sirius Black, his search was a sham. Among other things, he reported that Sirius was in Tibet (OP5); Shacklebolt was so successful at protecting Sirius that the Ministry never found him.
Anyone wonder why that was?
Knot the Minister! (ao3) - TherestheSnitch
Summary: A quickie in the closet at a Ministry ceremony seems like a good idea at the time, but an unexpected knot leaves Sirius and Kingsley in an awkward position…
Late Night Negotiations (ao3) - anassa_anemou
Summary: It's been years since they played, and know with some time in his hands Sirius might enjoy what Kingsley has to offer.
Like sun in cold places (ao3) - in_flux (In_flux)
Summary: Sirius gets to work for the Order while still staying hidden away.
A story of the right and wrong ways to take care of each other, by a lot of people who mean really well.
Moonlit Marriage (ao3) - CelesteMagnolia
Pairing: Remus/Tonks, Sirius/Kingsley
Summary: AU. When a law is passed that threatens the freedom of werewolves in Britain, Dumbledore suggests a way to keep Remus safe from it.
Little does Remus know that his life is about to be turned upside-down by the introduction of Metamorphmagus Nymphadora Tonks as his future bride.
postcard from paris (ao3) - greyeyedmonster18
Pairing: Remus/James, Sirius/Kingsley
Summary: They survived a war, and grew alongside each other, until life finally pulled the three of them in different directions. The night before James Potter leaves for a Healing residency in another country, he and Remus spend one last night together. Five years later, Sirius Black is getting married, and Remus finds himself face-to-face with James for the first time since that night . The night that ended in empty promises and a fever Remus couldn't sweat out.
Sirius is in love. James is charming and handsome as he had ever been. And Remus, without a doubt, is unbelievably ruined.
Raising the Bar (ao3) - Leela
Summary: Self-denial wasn't exactly a Black trait, after all, and despite Sirius's relationship with his family or side of the war, he was still a Black through and through.
The Ministry Gala (ao3) - JUDE14
Summary: Sirius is anxious to attend a social event. Kingsley is here to support him.
The Secret On Page Twelve (ao3) - Trovia
Summary: Kingsley has learned to expect the stuff of gay nightmares whenever his boyfriend talks about his past. So when Sirius shows him his old room at Grimmauld Place, he braces himself for the worst.
This Time Around (ao3) - gypsysue
Summary: After the death of Harry and Hermione, using Hermione’s method, Kingsley travels back in time to make things better.
To Thine Own Self Be True (ao3) - Trovia
Summary: They say there is no such thing as a gay wizard. Especially amongst the Aurors. And the purebloods are the ones to say it loudest.
