Summary
"You probably don't even remember my name which is a very big blow to my ego but–"
"James." Regulus breathes out.
James' smile turns even bigger and his dimples pop out and Regulus almost drops everything he's holding and falls on the floor of his favourite café and dies.
Regulus needs James Potter to stop smiling at him.
Regulus wants James Potter to keep smiling at him forever.
(or, an universe, where Regulus finally meets his brother's friend group after a while and gets introduced to one certain brown-eyed boy with messy hair, round glasses and a warm smile who immediately catches his attention and well, there's no turning back after that, really.)

Summary
James comes back with some red and green tinsel, sparkling under the dim light of the Luminary. He points to the top of the window, “This, my new ‘allergic to happiness’ friend, is going right there.”
“We’re not friends,” Regulus grumbles. James ignores him, snatching some fairy lights next and jumping onto the nearest chair, lifting the lights across the top window ledge, “Hey! You can’t just decorate my bakery!”
“And later,” the pest continues, “we’re going to get you a tree.”
It's the festive season, and Sirius and Regulus are struggling to keep their failing bakery afloat.
Enter James Potter, a Christmas enthusiast and Regulus's first crush, and his best friend Remus Lupin, an introverted novelist who turns to Sirius for inspiration for his next romance book.

Summary
“Excuse me, you what?”
“I want you to take Regulus out on a date,” Sirius repeats casually as if he hasn’t just said the most absurd thing ever, watching the Snitch that had escaped James’ hand the second Sirius had made the ridiculous request the first time.
James stares at his best friend in disbelief, because what?
“Look, if you go on a date with Regulus, I can go out on my Moony date. My parents will realise that their stupid idea of cursing me with only getting to date once Regulus does didn’t work out because look at that, Regulus also dates! They reverse the magic, Regulus can happily go back to refusing to date anyone, I can go back happily dating Remus, and you can happily go back doing whatever you had planned to do this summer. Quidditch, I assume.”

Summary
When Regulus Black was 19 he broke up with James Potter because he thought he didn’t know how to love. When he was 20, his brother told him that James was having a kid. When he was 30, he was teaching potions at Hogwarts, which was going swell, until one day when Harry Potter (aka the carbon copy of the boy whose heart he shattered) strolls into the Great Hall and effectively sends Regulus into a full blown panic.
Fuck. -

Summary
And oh.
Oh.
Oh he was kind of beautiful wasn’t he? Had Regulus always been?
To anyone else, he was all sharp edges and scathing remarks, but not to James. He could never be just that to James.
He could never just…be, to James.
And oh no.
That was new.
Or:
Gryffindor! Regulus gets the happy ending he should’ve gotten in the first place. And maybe they all learn a little about love and bravery along the way.

Summary
“Okay, okay. You’ll find someone to pine after soon enough, though, I’m sure.” Sirius gets up and goes to James’ overflowing chest of drawers, pulling one open to look for a more suitable pair of jeans.
James goes back to looking in the mirror.
“I don’t pine,” He mutters.
***
British modern high school AU where James is the popular jock/ football star and Regulus is the quiet artist who couldn't be less bothered by status or popularity.
They work on a project together. Pining ensues.

Summary
James was naturally a touchy person, but Regulus wasn’t. Truth be told, Regulus couldn’t remember the last time someone touched him so gently; it made him want to gnaw off his foot like a trapped animal, just as badly as it made him want to curl into the touch like a lost child.
or
Regulus didn't know he was touch starved until James started touching him.

Summary
James Potter loved Lily Evans from the moment he knew what it truly was to love anybody. But, in the end, it didn’t matter that James had declared that he would never love anyone else but Lily. Because he still lost her.
One year on from Halloween 1981, James is struggling to raise Harry alone whilst drowning in an impenetrable dark sea of grief, determined to never love again. Because, in his experience, to love, is to lose.
Luckily, Regulus Black knows quite a lot about loving and losing. And drowning, too, considering the fact that he survived the cave in 1979 and faked his death for two years, popping in to give Sirius the fright of his life on Halloween.
And, consequently, showing up just in time for the events that followed. The shattered remnants of people that the war left behind.
Maybe Regulus will be able to show James that it’s okay to extinguish the first love flame, whilst simultaneously giving him the parenting help he is too ashamed to ask for. And, in return, maybe James will manage to convince Regulus that love isn’t something you earn, something that always has a catch.
Maybe they just needed one another all along, to take that step into the daylight.

Summary

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.]

“I failed to take Voldemort down and it cost them their lives. - No Remus no. I have this unwarranted, unwanted second chance at life. I am going to destroy the horcruxes. I’m going to make it so the next time he comes he can be killed. No more death, no more loss. Harry deserves more. Better.”

Regulus had a plan, he was doing his best. He might have lost the plan along the way. He might have lost everyone along the way. This is him trying to make it right,Series

Summary
The thing was, it had seemed like it was already as bad as it was going to get; what could be worse than living with your brother’s best friend, who you happen to be in love with, who sees you as nothing more than an extension of your brother he just has to hang out with sometimes?
Apparently, the answer was having to pretend, to pretend, to be in love with him.

Summary
*A friend requested grumpy/sunshine Jegulus magical Hogwarts AU with no Voldemort.*
Regulus Black POV - His attempts to rebuild his brotherly bond with Sirius are interrupted by a certain arrogant, messy-haired complication.
Jegulus/Wolfstar/Dorlene/Marpanlily/future RosekillerExcerpt:
“I’m afraid that’s your choice to make,” Peter said solemnly. “If you want Sirius back, James comes along with him. The two of them are inseparable.”Regulus’s eyes locked onto Peter’s. “You believe that, don’t you? That they’re inseparable.”
“Only because it’s true,” Peter agreed, shrugging lightly. “It’s not fair to expect Sirius to choose between you, Regulus. James was there for him during some really tough times. He pulled him out of depressions and tantrums repeatedly, despite his protests. He can reach Sirius when no one else can. Do you really want to take that away from your brother?”
“Yes,” Regulus answered petulantly.
“Piss off, Regulus. Now who’s a prat?”
“Still Potter.”

Summary
If you had told James Potter 2 weeks ago that he would be touring with Regulus Black, he would’ve admitted you to a mental hospital and then driven himself off a bridge. If you had told Regulus Black the same thing, he would’ve slapped you across the face.
But here they were.
// After not seeing each other for 4 years, James and Regulus are forced to tour Europe together for The Marauders' Insidious Tour.
