    Summary

    It’s May 1979 and the Order has just apprehended a pair of mysterious wizards who look remarkably like a Potter and a Malfoy. Naturally, James Potter and Sirius Black are called in to identify the strangely familiar strangers and determine their backgrounds and loyalties.

    (This would be a lot easier if their captives weren’t convinced everyone they talk to is dead. It would also be easier if they didn’t spend half their bloody time bickering.)

    **

    “Just ask them questions only they would know the answer to,” Malfoy suggests.

    “There’s not a single thing that I know about either of them from the first war that any old Death Eater couldn’t find out.”

    “How is that possible?” Malfoy huffs. “He’s your father!”

    “Am I or am I not famously an orphan?” Potter snarls.

    **

    When budding Dark Lord Tom Riddle overhears a prophecy predicting his demise at the hands of Harry Potter, he hatches a devious and brilliant plan: befriend the enemy, master the power-that-he-knows-not, and then eliminate him.

    Unfortunately for Tom, Harry has never cared much for well-laid evil plots.

    A Hogwarts AU in which Tom tries to be cunning, Harry tries to be helpful, and everyone else tries to be nosy.

    Summary

    A mysterious object in Bellatrix's vault sends Harry, Ron and Hermione spinning into the past and to a Hogwarts like none they know.
    Posing as students, Harry catches the eye of the Head Boy, Tom Riddle, who is nothing like the Voldemort of the future. He's charming and sly and manipulative; both brillant and deadly.

    It isn’t long before they’re tangled in a game more intricate than anything before. A game of heightened stakes, of tension, and the odds are stacked against Harry. With the threads of the future unravelling, can Harry make it out intact? And what is the cost, of truly getting close to Tom?

    Summary

    When Walburga goes too far, it is Regulus who pays the price.

    Sirius doesn’t understand why his baby brother is sleeping so deeply, and he doesn’t like it, but he is a good big brother—he will wake him by whatever means necessary and keep him safe.

    Because he is a good big brother.

    Summary

    When the professors at Hogwarts decide to roll in a new assignment for the prefects, Regulus is tasked with writing an essay on an impossible topic. Some have to write about their pets, others have to discuss their favourite book. Instead of something simple, he has to write about the person who raised him. Oh, and then he has to present his essay to the whole school.

    Regulus doesn’t know how he’ll find a single positive thing to say about his parents. Walburga and Orion aren’t exactly the warm and fuzzy type. He’s quite sure he’s doomed, until a chance meeting with his brother brings forth a humbling realisation.

    [Or, Regulus writes about the person who raised him, Sirius is trying his best and James is a good boyfriend]

    Summary

    Regulus Black is suspicious of his brother and his brother’s friends. There is something they’re hiding and he’s going to find out what it is.

    Which he does. Somehow, this also leads to him earning a new identity, a new nickname, and the boy of his dreams.

    [or, Regulus is a smart cookie, James is a smitten fool with a honey obsession, Sirius is confused, and Remus is sick of being beaten up by that upstart badger.]

    Summary

    Be on guard, my Lord, writes Abraxas Malfoy, the new transfer student intends to kill you.

    Except Abraxas has terrible penmanship, and kill and kiss look awfully similar in shoddy cursive.

    Naturally, things escalate. A lot.

    Summary

By the time Sirius manages to visit him, Regulus' sanity and health have long since fled.

    Summary

    For many years, there was one thing keeping him from taking his own life. At sixteen, that thing changed into another, and then he briefly learned to fight against the urge for his own sake instead of another’s, and even through thirteen years in a maddening cage, he never looked back.

    And, in the end, he lost them both anyway.

    So here he is, a lifetime later, having forgotten that, at some point, he did not know the answer.

    As he falls through the veil, Sirius Black discovers that death feels like weightlessness.

    Quicker than falling asleep.

     

    [or the one where the veil shows sirius the events of the cave—something that would've changed everything, had he seen it in life]

    Summary

    “It’s not for long,” Hermione said. “By the time we get back to Hogwarts, the Unfettering Brew will be ready.”

    “Listen to you!” Ron said. “He’s got to get through a month with the Dursleys and a month at Malfoy Manor. With Draco Malfoy.”

    “Yeah, thanks,” Harry said, because he hadn’t just spent the last week contemplating just how much more horrible his summer holidays were about to be than they’d ever been before.

    Summary

    Sirius Black should hate his brother.

    There were so many good reasons why: being a blood supremacist, being a Slytherin, always following their parents, or the worst one.. becoming a death eater.

    Yet each time he stares at him, he doesn't feel anger, disgust, or any form of hatred at all because no matter what, Regulus Black would always be Sirius's little brother.

    Unconditional love truly does suck.

    It's never too late
    To come back to my side
    The stars in your eyes
    Shined brighter in Tupelo
    And if you're ever tired of being known
    For who you know
    You know, you'll always know me

    Summary

    Regulus didn’t like Lupin. That bastard was going to be the death of Sirius, and he was the main reason Regulus was so pissed off. His stupid brother should have known better. They were the Blacks; they had been associated with danger since they were toddlers. How Sirius couldn’t detect all those warning signs from the tawny-haired boy was beyond him.

    Lupin was going to kill Sirius.

    Regulus just knew it.

    Summary

    Harry learned that some things ended slowly. War, for one, love, for another.

    It started with a picture of James Potter taken by an unknown person, it ended with a series of tragic love letters shut safely in Regulus Black's dusty bedroom.

    --

     

    “Did Regulus know my dad?”

     

    That got a reaction out of Narcissa, a subtle flinch, and suddenly Harry knew with absolute surety that the picture must have been Regulus’s.

     

    “He did, didn’t he?”

     

    “They were only a year apart at Hogwarts, of course, they knew each other—”

     

    “Aside from that,” Harry interrupted.

     

    Narcissa’s mouth formed a thin line, and Andromeda nudged her. “You should tell him; dead people don’t need their secrets protected,” she said softly.

    Summary

    This was why Sirius and Regulus had vowed to never tell anyone of Regulus’ “premonitions” as the older one called them. They felt stronger than a feeling, it was as if the emotions of the other person would soar off of them in waves, pouring over Regulus, overwhelming him. If he reached out, he could understand their emotions even better. A subconscious hand on the shoulder and he could feel that person’s fears, dreams, love, hatred, all of the good and bad in the person. Regulus preferred not to do this though, as it overwhelmed him, gave him an instant headache and was unable to look at that person the same way. Sirius had agreed, calling it “cheating.” If he took several deep breaths and cleared his mind, it was easier to ignore.

    A What-If universe, where Regulus had dreams he didn't understand, a blue and bronze tie, and a brother who never gave up on him.
