    Summary

    “What?” He asks, alarmed.

    “As Sirius said, the curse has been modified to a shorter timeline.” Effie says, looking at him wearily ... "If Regulus is not married to a Pureblood within the next hour, he will die.”

    Oh.

    James stares at the clock. He can feel the tension in the room pressing in on him. No one looks at him then. They turn back to staring at Regulus quietly, watching him slowly die.

    The thought occurs to him, but he brushes it off. He’s had some stupid ideas, but this is completely ridiculous. It’s in no way an option.

    He stares at Sirius then, eyes red rimmed and face resigned with the kind of grief James knows would follow him every single day. He looks at the boy he would sell his soul in a second to protect. Then he does.

    “I’ll do it.” James says firmly.

    Summary

    “If anyone should have any objection to the matrimony of these two people standing before me, speak now, or forever hold your peace.”

    The room is earthly silent as the three people standing at the front of the hall—bride, groom, and officiator—await any potential objections. Sirius’ lips twitch as he leans towards Remus beside him, planning on cracking a related joke, and he opens his mouth only to be interrupted by audibly shocked gasps on behalf of many of the procession. When he looks around at the crowd of guests, he too is dumbfounded to find that two instantly recognisable people have gotten to their feet; the both of them unblinking as they stare shamelessly at the fiancés and, with an almost practised unison, declare:

    “I object.”

    There is hardly another beat of silence before James and Lily respectively—and simultaneously—blurt out, “Regulus?” and “Mary?”

    Or:

    The one in which Regulus and Mary team up after years of being thought dead to take back those who are their’s.
