    Summary

    Regulus has always known he's destined to drown. He feels it deep in his chest, past his rib cage, nestled somewhere behind his organs. He feels it in his arm when his mother squeezes it a little harder than a mother should. He felt it, the water rising in his throat, when his brother slipped out the window and into the night. He often wonders if it'd be easier to just let himself sink.

    He often wonders if he has a choice.

    ---

    Regulus gets sent back to school with a mission from the Dark Lord himself— find the “beast in the chamber” and claim its fangs without killing it. But when a certain curly-haired bespectacled boy asks for a rather large favor, everything suddenly gets a lot more complicated.

    Summary

    A small interaction between Regulus and Euphemia before his fifth year at Hogwarts alters the trajectory of his life. Asked to watch out for Regulus, James finds himself readily falling for him as they spend more time together. It can never be that simple though- the Black's expectations and dysfunction grasp onto the younger boy relentlessly, and the raging war outside the doors of Hogwarts moves closer to them every day.

    Dealing with the hardships and traumas of their reality, the question remains: how far are they willing to go for one another?

    Following the boys from their final years of Hogwarts into their roles during the First Wizarding War, this is a long fic exploring the depths of their devotion. It deals with sensitive topics so please be mindful of the tags; there is a comprehensive note at the start of the fic detailing warnings. Eventual happily ever after (it's a long ride).

    Summary

    The envelope was there, at the polished wooden table in his foyer, waiting for him. James could see the company name printed in fine black letters over the front, a name he had never expect to find on an envelope addressed to him: Grimmauld Studios. Dread clawed at his stomach, his mind conjuring the image of storm grey eyes fanned by thick black lashes.

    What did they want from him?

    James Potter is a rising actor with a promising career. But life as he knew it is about to come crashing down when he finally meets Regulus Black, a name that all the films wanted to showcase, perfect and stunning. The brightest start in Hollywood, and the one that had the most to hide. For all his fame and success, Regulus Black remained an enigma, signed exclusively with Grimmauld Studios, his renowned family's business.

    And was Sirius' brother.

    And James Potter has just been offered a contract with them, for a film that might just mean the beginning of the end. What more could be hiding inside the glittering halls of the House of Black? What ghosts lurked in the shadows, behind the cameras and practiced smiles?

    Summary

    A Muggle AU in which a ballet dancer and a rugby player call it “casual” while accidentally developing feelings, catastrophically failing at communication, and pretending it’s all totally fine.

    ----

    “Why the hell are you here ruining my lunch, James?”
    James rubbed a hand over the back of his neck, trying to find words that didn’t sound completely insane.
    He failed.
    “I... don’t think you should be sleeping with Evan anymore.”
    Regulus stared at him like he’d just proposed murdering the Queen.
    (...)
    “If you need a fuck buddy for, you know, stress relief and stuff - you could just use me.”
    (...)
    “Come again?”
    “If the position’s open,” James said, attempting a grin, “I’m applying.”
