Sep. 12th, 2007 @ 07:38 pm FIC: Delineation of a Duellist - Part One
Current Mood: hopeful

Title: Delineation of a Duellist
Setting: 1980 through an alternate timeline of 1991
Pairing(s): Remus/Sirius, Remus/Severus, eventual Sirius/Remus/Severus
Rating: NC17
WC: overall ~34,400; this part ~9,700
Thanks: Eternal thanks to my dear, wonderful betas [info]lore, [info]aunty_marion, [info]thesnapelyone, [info]jenw118.
Disclaimers: The scene with Harry choosing a wand includes liberal use of text from PS. The scene where Remus describes the shop to Severus is inspired by a scene from Susan Cooper's book The Dark Is Rising. This entire fic was very much inspired by Ellen Kushner's deeply moving and well-written Swordspoint and The Privilege of the Sword.
Notes: This is not a WIP - it is complete and will be entirely posted within the next three days (who knows, I may yet post the rest of it tonight. I'm into instant gratification.)


Summary: When a wizard's honour is challenged, it is grounds for a duel. To win, one hires the best duellist--and everyone knows Remus Lupin is the best. He's never lost. But in order to win the most important duel of his life, he must learn how to lose...
