Summary
Regulus Black is not a person who was born - he is a fire that was set.
GRIEF
[ɡriːf] – Noun, French:
- ' 𝘎𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘧 𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘱𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘰𝘴𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘥𝘦𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘥 𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘵, 𝘪𝘯 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘶𝘭𝘢𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘥𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘩 𝘰𝘧 𝘢 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘳 𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘮𝘢𝘭 𝘵𝘰 𝘸𝘩𝘪𝘤𝘩 𝘢 𝘣𝘰𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘳 𝘢𝘧𝘧𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘦𝘥. 'OR: Regulus is everything his parents raised him to be. James wholeheartedly disagrees. As hearts become tangled, the Dark Lord's war brews behind the scenes, and James isn't sure love is enough to stop Sirius' younger brother anymore - because love doesn't conquer everything.
And anyone who thinks it does is a fool.

Summary
In the aftermath of the prank, James Potter is at an all time low. He can barely look at Sirius, Remus’s dad is keeping him locked up all summer, and Lily Evans hates him even more than usual.
In an effort to get James out of the house, Euphemia signs her son up for a summer Quidditch program with the famous Josef Wronski—seeker for the Grodzisk Goblins and inventor of the Wronski Feint.
The last person James expects to see there is Regulus Black.

Summary
“You called her babe,” he muttered. James made a sort of confused noise against his neck.
“I did,” he murmured. He was quiet for a moment, like he was waiting for Regulus to say more, but he didn’t. He pulled back slightly. “Is… is that it?”
“I didn’t like it,” Regulus said like it was a warning.
“Oh?”
Regulus narrowed his eyes. “You did it on purpose,” he said, and it came out far more as an accusation than he intended, that same hot feeling from earlier surfacing again in his chest.
James didn’t answer, just breathed a laugh and sucked at the skin under Regulus’ ear. Regulus tensed his jaw a little, and with his free hand, he snaked his fingers up into James’ hair and pulled his head back a bit so they were looking at each other in the eyes. James’ ears were red and his eyes were half-lidded, almost dazed. He blinked at Regulus slowly.

Summary
“Wh– well– why–” James stammered, attempting to get his bearings, because if he didn’t, and he let Regulus tell him ‘kiss me’ one more time, his heart would probably give out. “Why don’t you get Sirius to help?”
Regulus narrowed his eyes. “Because Sirius would just knock his teeth out,” he said as though it were obvious.
“Yes,” James hissed, “and he’ll knock my teeth out if I kiss his little brother.”
“You can take a hit, Potter, I’ve seen you on the quidditch pitch,” Regulus waved him off, and James groaned, leaning away from him.
“Oh, yeah, great, so I’m the sacrifice,” he sighed.
“Precisely,” Regulus stepped right into his space, and James felt his chest go a little hot.

Or, Regulus asks James for a favor to get his ex off of his back, and James makes bad choices.

Summary
There are two types of people in a small town. The ones who are suffocating, counting down every day until they can leave, and the ones who stay.
Sirius leaves. Regulus doesn't.
When Sirius returns six years later, it's to find that nothing is quite as he expected.
Sometimes you break the cycle, and sometimes, it breaks you.
