It's been a while since this community had an entry; nevertheless, I shall engage in shameless self-promotion by pointing out that a work of motorbike-related slashiness has been posted at rs_small_gifts. Details follow.

Title: Split in Two
Author: penhaligonblue
Recipient: dear_tiger
Rating: PG
Prompt: Motorcycle diaries
Author's notes: Title from the 2004 film, Diarios de motocicleta (with translation help from my sister): "What do we leave behind when we cross each frontier? Each moment seems split in two: melancholy for what was left behind and the excitement of entering a new land."

(Split in Two)

Breathing life into a dead community?  Why not.  It's late, I'm tired, and I was recently reminded of this comm.

There are a few things on my mind.  

First:  What do you all think of DH?  Specifically, where Sirius's bike was (with Hagrid) and how it ended up (completely crashed, then possibly rebuilt by Mr. Weasley).   I'm glad JKR mentioned the bike was Sirius's, but it seemed almost to disregard Sirius entirely.  If I were Harry, learning that the recently totalled bike was my recently deceased godfather's might spark a bit of a reaction at least.

Second:  What do you think Sirius named the bike?  I ask this because I'm (potentially) writing a fic with it, and I'm not sure what to call her.  I have no doubts that the bike's a she.  I just (perhaps) need a name.

Speaking of writing a fic, I'll be ignoring DH for it.  It'll involve some Remus/Harry bonding time that was so tragically ignored in the books.

To make everyone happy, I have a rec as well.

cerridwen666 created a really fab Motorbike/Ford Anglia OTP icon that totally cracks me up, so I just had to share it here!

Hello, motorbikeslashers,

I don't know if many of you follow shoebox_project, but it does indeed feature Sirius' motorbike in a supporting role, often referred to as "The Vibrator". (Ha.)

The community jukebox_project is for Shoeboxy fanmixes, and they have monthly themed challenges. This month's themed challenge is a soundtrack featuring the motorbike!

My purpose is twofold:
1. Participate by nominating songs that remind you of the special R/S/motorbike love, and later on, voting on which nominations should be included, because the challenge just requests motorbike or road songs, not anything in particular about the inevitable OT3ness.
2. Benefit by getting an album of Motorbike music at the end of the month!

I am SO tormented about what I'll nominate. Someone else already sensibly nominated Arlo Guthrie's Motorbike Song, which is good.

I'm currently thinking:
- "I Wanna Hop On Your Harley" by Anne Rabson, who totally sounds like she might be a drag queen, though she isn't. This is the most blatantly "Motorbikes are Hot!" song I've found, so I'm willing to overlook that Sirius would so not have a Harley.
( Hop On Your Harley lyricsCollapse )


- "Little Honda" by the Hondells. While it's not that slashy, it's got a couple of good innuendo-ish lines, because really, it's hard not to when you're talking about motorcycles.
( Little Honda lyricsCollapse )
My daddy rides a Honda from the seventies, quite like what Sirius' options in the Honda line might be if there were any chance in hell that Sirius would have a Honda. It's a really nice bike, and you do, in fact, meet the nicest people on a Honda.


The third song... I don't know? Motorbikin' by Billy Idol?

Then there's also M-bike by PJ Harvey? I suspect it's sadly quite true to Shoebox!Remus' objection to the motorbike, which I personally don't really buy, because RL/SB/MB = OT3!

( M-bike lyricsCollapse )

Aaah, so many choices!!

Hi everyone!  Been a while, hasn't it?  I've been trudging through R/S fics lately, and took a note whenever I stumbled upon some bike!fic.  Here are the results, just in time to brighten your weeks.  Enjoy!

Title: Used to Be
Author: Ballyharnon
Rating: PG-13

"Used to Be," part of the Of Linen series by Ballyharnon is a story in which Sirius, on the eve of the Fidelius Charm casting, bares his soul to his best girl, his motorcycle. His reflections on his relationship with Remus are a must-read for any R/S fan in the mood for angst.

*Waves timidly* Just thought I'd share! ^u^

Title: Enter the Enchanted Motorbike
Author: Lucy May
Fandom/Pairing: Harry Potter & Remus/Sirius
Rating: PG
Summary: A tale in which Remus likes Sirius' motorbike. Almost.

I was inspired by the recent rec post by oddbobs (also the first post NOT BY ME to this community)... so here we are, recommendations to couple of fics I've been meaning to share here for a very long time.


Motorbike Dreams by franticbabbles.
This story is absolutely fantastic in using the motorbike as a central feature in chronicling Remus' relationship to Sirius. Poignant and beautifully written, this story is gutwrenching in a quiet, understated sort of way. Also, in addition to crushing your soul, it is also sexy in the middle! I often shy away from angst, but you really shouldn't in this case, because it's just so incredibly evocative and real. It's a must-read that demonstrates that the motorbike can be implemented in stories to effect angst as well as smut.

Fallen, Alternate Version by CLS.
Sequel to Black Shadow which is non-slashy but features the start of the beautiful relationship between Sirius and his bike. In this, the NC-17 slashy version of the sequel, Remus gets added on to the relationship... and that is definitely the way it should be!! These stories feature particularly detailed research and very creative ideas on what kind of motorbike Sirius would have -- I definitely buy it!

The Gift by Siryn.
Sirius trusts Remus enough to give him the keys to his motorbike. If that's not love, I don't know what is. And, of course, it's also smut, because Remus + Sirius + Motorbike = OT3. Particularly nice because it's the first fic I've read where Remus wants to take the bike for a spin, and come on, you know that's hot.
