Ship: Regulus Black/Remus Lupin Rating: General Length/Medium: Digital Tags: Fluff, Marauders Era, Digital Art, Illustration Summary:

Ship: Regulus Black/Barty Crouch Jr./Remus Lupin Rating: Explicit Length/Medium: 2.3k words Tags: Smut, BDSM, Bondage, Friends to Fuckbuddies, Open Relationship, Marauders Era Summary:
Just because Regulus settled on one man doesnโt mean he lost any of his wild tendencies despite what Barty may think. Theyโll just have to prove to Barty they are as deviant as ever, just with each otherโฆ and maybe one other.

They came out so goooooood.

๐ฎโจ HD Tarot Fest Anonymous Masterlist โจ๐ฎ
Below is a collection of all the incredible fic and art created under the mystical influence of the Major and Minor Arcana cards.
Creators will be revealed on Saturday, November 30th at 1pm GMT/8am EST!
ยท โหโบโงโโฝ Fic โพโโงโบหโ ยท
๐ฎ Because This River Is Wild (T, 14k words) ๐ Six of Pentacles, upright: generosity, community, help, support, sharing, gratitude Six of Pentacles, reversed: inequality, taking advantage, strings attached, extortion, unfair power dynamics Consider this, though: how do you know youโre looking at the card the intended way? Or, Harry and Draco struggle with the explosive nature of passion without trust. Card(s): Six of Pentacles
๐ฎ Twilight Eternal (M, 23.9k words) ๐ Wherever Draco is, the sun sits eternally on the precipice of setting. His father feeds his peacocks on the manor grounds. Harry is the only one who can communicate with Draco. A malevolent force haunts the house, nipping at Dracoโs heels. Draco intended for himself to come to this place. He only wishes he could remember why. Card(s): Five of Cups
๐ฎ all i need (G, 3.9k words) ๐ What would have happened if Draco Malfoy went down to the cellar again after Wormtail seemingly disappeared? Card(s): Six of Swords
๐ฎ I Watch Your Light (E, 9k words) ๐ Harry spends his nights out pretending that he isn't sitting across from Draco Malfoy. This is rather difficult to do since Malfoy won't stop staring at him. Why, oh why, did his boyfriend have to be friends with the blond wanker? Card(s): Six of Cups, King of Cups (reversed), Four of Cups (reversed)
๐ฎ Little Black Dress (E, 4.9k words) ๐ Returning for a mandatory eighth year and secretly dating Harry Potter, Draco is a bit of a mess. Harry wants to go public with their relationship, but the last thing Draco needs is another reason for people to hate him. As they work on their Tarot assignment for Advanced Divination, could a change of heart be in the cards? Card(s): Eight of Pentacles, Queen of Wands, Queen of Cups (reversed)
๐ฎ Abstract From a Moment (E, 19.1k words) ๐ What Draco thinks will be a promotion in the Department of Mysteries turns out to be a strange, morbid assignment. He can handle the macabre task and the slightly frightening interactions with his odd superior, especially if it means career success. Trust Harry Potter to ruin everything. Card(s): Ten of Wands (reversed)
๐ฎ psychopomp (E, 15.3k words) ๐ โDo you think I deserve to live?โ The words spilt from his mouth, unbidden. Potter fixed him with a penetrating look. Draco recalled the expression heโd worn when he wrenched the wands from Dracoโs grip at the Manor; thought this could be the same one. You canโt hide from me, it said. I know everything about you. โI think dying is the easy way out.โ Card(s): The High Priestess
๐ฎ A wolf at the door (T, 13.5k words) ๐ When Harry decided to do his internship with an international Auror, he was seeking an escape from many things. He certainly hadnโt anticipated ending up questioning his sexuality, magically trapped in a Spanish house with Draco Malfoy. Card(s): The World
๐ฎ hugged and tugged down through this tigerโs masque (M, 11k words) ๐ A glimpse into a period of alteration, change, and transformation. Card(s): Death
๐ฎ Rusty Cage (E, 20.5k words) ๐ Harry Potter is not okay. Someone else whoโs not okay? Draco Malfoy, but he's doing time in Azkaban for his heinous crimes. But what if Draco isn't as guilty as he's been made out to be? Everyone knows that Harry is a sucker for righting injustice, including Hermione, who is more than prepared to meddle in order to help her best friend. Or, when Harry visits Draco in prison and things don't go quite as expected. Card(s): Eight of Swords
๐ฎ Towers of glory and the hands that felled them (G, 15.8k words) ๐ Itโs been 10 years since the war and Draco Malfoy is yet to leave his tower. The Tower: a symbol for ambition that is constructed on faulty premises. The destruction of the tower must happen in order to clear out the old ways and welcome something new. Its revelations can come in a flash of truth or inspiration. Card(s): The Tower
๐ฎ Mirror, Me (E, 18.3k words) ๐ Harryโs current predicament is, he can admit, rather dire. Being caught stalking aside, he thinks his nose might be broken. Humiliation licks up his rigid spine, but along with it is a prickle of ill-advised anticipation, a foolish thrill at what Malfoy might do. Harry is a little lost. His house is rejecting him and his friends and family are busy and moving on. To cope, he turns to whatโs tried and true; following Draco Malfoy. The first time was an accident. Sort of. Card(s): Four of Wands
๐ฎ Beyond the Veil (M, 9.9k words) ๐ Embracing his new role as the Master of Death, Harry finds harmony in the natural order of things, but can he find a balance with the new Master of Life, Draco Malfoy? Card(s): Temperance
๐ฎ Minor Fall, Major Lift (E, 10.9k words) ๐ Harry Potter is telling peopleโs fortunes in a tent in the Atrium at the Ministry Christmas party. Draco thinks Divination is a load of rubbish. But the cards never lieโฆ Card(s): Ten of Pentacles (reversed), The Moon, Three of Cups
๐ฎ The Superfluous Man (E, 24.1k words) ๐ A child for Harry Potter is a miracle of magic. And it's the second act of Draco Malfoy's sorry little life. Card(s): The Wheel of Fortune
๐ฎ Care for a Walk? (G, 2k words) ๐ โDraco,โ Harry beams confidently as the gates swing open, โCare for a walk?โ Card(s): Six of Cups
๐ฎ Skipping Stones (M, 34.7k words) ๐ Draco receives his very own prophecy. If Harry Potter could leave him alone, he might be able to figure out what it means. Card: Queen of Swords
ยท โหโบโงโโฝ Art โพโโงโบหโ ยท
๐ฎ Death (G) ๐ Card: Death
๐ฎ The Strength (G) ๐ Card: Strength
๐ฎ A New Light. (G) ๐ The choices that changed us. Card: The Tower
๐ฎ The Moon (G) ๐ Card: The Moon
๐ฎ Surrender (M) ๐ Draco repents. Card: The Hanged Man
๐ฎ nine of cups (G) ๐ Harry happy in the upright card position, Draco suffering in the reverse. Card: Nine of Cups
๐ฎ The Sun (G) ๐ In the cosmos of his heart, Harry blooms not but for one sun. Card: The Sun
๐ฎ Crepusculum (G) ๐ A guardian in his tower, whimsical and secretive. A corruptor in the marble manor, with mirrored flesh and soul. Two souls at the foot of a castle seeking the sky just out of reach. Held down by twisted word and lies. Card: The Emperor
๐ฎ Ace of Cups (G) ๐ Sipping from the same cup. Card: Ace of Cups
๐ฎ Ten of Cups (G) ๐ ten of cups joy, gratitude, unconditional love, belonging, emotional fulfillment Card: Ten of Cups
๐ฎ XXI. THE WORLD (G) ๐ XXI. The World, but make it drarry. Card: The World
Quad appearance headcanons
Skin
Barty: Pale with warm undertones. Looks kind of sickly, doesn't really take care of himself. Covered in ink and metal.
Regulus: Pale with cool undertones. Skin is impossibly smooth. Looks like a vampire. Has been mistaken for a statue because he sometimes stands unblinkingly still. I really like Regulus untattooed and without piercings, but I can see him having them, I think he'd only get ones that could be covered up.
Evan: Dark brown with warm undertones. Definitely covered with metal, I'm loose on whether I think he has tattoos or how many.
Remus: Tan with cool undertones, covered in scars. I don't think he'd get visible tattoos/piercings, but I like him experimenting with sexual piercings and I also love him getting a tattoo to cover up his bite mark when he's older.
Eyes
Barty: Dark chocolate brown.
Regulus: Icy grey
Evan: Dark brown, nearly black
Remus: Honey/amber brown
Hair
Barty: Straight, naturally straw blond, dyes it, usually black with green. Most of his body is waxed, which he does the muggle way because pain, but he leaves a pleasure trail because Evan likes pulling it.
Regulus: Curly, black, immaculate, shoulder length. Doesn't have much body hair, but what he does have is bloody obvious because black hair on pale skin. I think he'd be self conscious about that and would lean towards removing it.
Evan: Kinky coils, naturally blond. I usually do a silvery blond but I'm considering a warmer one. I like him with braids or dreadlocks or natural or basically any hairstyle. His pale body hair on his dark skin makes him glisten.
Remus: Sandy brown hair, tight curls, keeps it short because he doesn't want to deal with upkeep. Fuzzy, can't really be bothered with manscaping and his boyfriends love it.

Romantic Moonwater but instead of them meeting and bonding in the library like usual: itโs a half horror, half grossly sappy romance that switches point of views between Remus who believes heโs being actively hunted by a stranger who knows his furry little secret. And regulus, who is experiencing a crush for the first time (full stop, honestly) and has no idea how to admire people in a normal way, making himself the worlds most harrowing secret admirer
Ahh this is so cool!!!
Scene from Heart of the Lion that I ended up scrapping.
โNo, Ginny, youโre not okay. Youโre exhausted, worse youโre drained, like youโre not even fullyโฆhere. And you couldnโt even answer us while you were holding that thing, what even is it?โ
โMy diary,โ she responded instantly, emphasising the pronoun in an odd tone.
โIs this diary the reason youโre so tired all the time? How often do you write in that thing? Ginnyโฆ not all books are, yโknow, good. I had an uncle who bought a book that was bound inย [[made up monster]] leather and it [[something silly]].โ
โLunaโs right,โ Hermione said, though she gave Luna an odd look when she said it. Luna nodded in encouragement regardless. โBooks can be cursed or possessed or-โ
โNO!โ She shouted so vehemently that both Luna and Hermione took a step back from her. โYou donโt understand itโs not like that, heโs not like that.โ And then she bolted for the door. Luna looked at Hermione in alarm, unsure what to do.
โGo after her,โ Hermione urged. โIโll stay here in case she comes back.โ Luna didnโt have to be told twice, and she bolted in the same direction as Ginny had, calling out for her friend to stop. Ginny was small, and obviously tired, but she managed to lead Luna on a chase down into the cold dungeon corridors that ran below the lake near Professor Snapeโs classroom before Luna stood any chance of catching up to her. They were both breathing raggedly when Ginny finally listened to Lunaโs pleas for her to slow down so they could talk.ย
โYou canโt just take it away from me,โ Ginny said, before Luna could even think about forming words in between her shallow breaths. โI need it. It helps me toโฆ sort out my head, you know, when I write.โ
Luna nodded in understanding then took a deep breath to centre herself. โI know, Ginny, and Iโm doing my best to understand.โ She leaned against the cold dungeon wall and glanced down at the large pocket that still held the diary.ย
โRosie Rosie Rosie,โ Barty squeaked, practically vibrating and pointing towards the top of the glass display, โTheyโre using cactuses to show dick piercings.โ
Evan took a long, slow breath in through his nose. He was feeling slightly overwhelmed, not least because he was about to get stabbed in the cunt and they were amongst muggles and his boyfriend was about to go out of his skin with excitement.
โYep,โ Evan agreed, following Bartyโs finger. Yes, indeed, there was a display of 3 fake cacti with various dick piercings. Lupin was getting some today.
Barty would look good with them, but the piercer had insisted on doing a maximum of 3 at a time and they werenโt violating the statute of secrecy to explain theyโd all be magically healed within the hour.
โTooth piercing!โ Barty hissed into Evanโs ear, bouncing on the ball of his feet and pointing at a display of tiny jewelry that apparently were secured to a personโs teeth.ย
โExcuse me, maโam!โ Barty said to the receptionist, crossing the room and pointing at yet another display that was full of jewelry, โWhat are the chains for?โ
โNose piercings,โ the woman explained with a smile, โIf you get a stud in each nostril, you can attach the chain across them.โ
Barty grinned. Widely. The kind of grin that sometimes made Evan a little nervous that his head was about to come apart.
Evan had to admit, it was impressive, all the ways that muggles had come up with to modify their bodies without magic. Meanwhile, in the magical world, even changing your hair color was still seen as shocking when any third year could do it.ย ย
โOh, Rosie! Metal pronoun pins!โ Barty said, crossing the room again and pointing excitedly to a basket that, indeed, carried metal pins declaring she/her, he/him, or they/them.
Evan raised his eyebrows at that and nodded his approval.ย
((I finally went to the tattoo/piercing place that the one in Heart of the Lion chapters 13 & 59 is based on. I got a bit inspired. Barty would become a regular.))
โSo,โ said Hermione, who had taken a hot chocolate for herself. โItโs ready.โ โHm? What is?โ He asked her, turning his attention away from the Slytherin shenanigans.ย โItย is ready, Harry,โ she said, with an air of annoyance. โOh! Great, then the plan is on for Christmas Day?โ โMhm. Iโve asked to stay for Christmas, and the Weasleys are staying too because their parents are going to visit their big brother in Romania.โ She dropped her voice to a whisper. โSo that means weโll have someone from each house who can distribute the potion." Harry nodded, looking around furtively in case anyone was near enough to be listening. But most people were preoccupied with their drinks or chatting in their own little groups. His gaze lingered on the Slytherin table.ย "My money is still on Malfoy," he said, his tone dark. "The other Slytherins might back up hisโฆย mudblood,"ย Harry spat the word, "bashing, but it just feels like they're following him rather than really believing it." "I agree," said Hermione, obviously trying not to stare daggers in Malfoy's direction. "He's our prime suspect so it's really important that you get him to take the veritaserum Harry." Again Harry nodded, though inwardly he wasn't sure how he was going to get Malfoy to take anything from him, even something as innocuous as a drink.
