    Summary

    For Prince Regulus Black, it is but an act of rebellion, his first and his only and his last, against his parents. Something for himself.
    For a wanted thief James Potter, it is nothing but a way of getting riches, and the most valuable of them all, the Royal Crown of Slytherin.
    For Crown Prince Sirius Black, it is a means to take his mind off his inevitable coronation as king. A final act of defiance, something to remind him of who he truly is.
    For James' best friend and fellow thief Remus Lupin, it is only something to cure his boredom, a little edge to his usually dull life.

    Somehow, all of them got more than they bargained for.

     

    or

    James and Remus are thieves, Pandora and Lily are busy trying to keep them alive, Sirius and Regulus are princes that James and Remus steal from, a kingdom is in shambles, people go missing voluntarily, there are fights, and everyone is just trying to keep their head on their shoulders, which, some of them fail. Oh, and it all starts with a masquerade ball.

    Summary

    “Listen, love, you’re not going to be happy about this, but the press is going to love it.” Narcissa, Regulus’s agent as well as cousin, says through the phone.

    “That’s a great start to the conversation.” Regulus retorts.

    “Oh, hush. So, the musical coordinator has been talking to your brother recently…”

    “No. No. Absolutely not.” Regulus immediately shuts down.

    “Reggie, listen. Your new movie is so highly anticipated that having The Marauders write a song specifically for it? Everyone will go wild.”

    “I don’t care. I don’t want it.”

    “Well, it’s not actually up to you. I’m only telling you as a nicety. The Marauders have already agreed.”

     

    or, Regulus is the highest-paid actor of his generation, and when his brother's band agrees to write a song for his film, the brothers are forced to speak to each other again after seven years.

    Summary

    The Blacks want to marry off their youngest child. He begs Sirius for help and tells him a secret: He is a man and would rather die than be forced to be anyone's wife.
    Panicked, Sirius arranges a marriage between his brother and his friend James Potter, knowing that Regulus can be the man he is in the English countryside on James' estate.

    James wants to ensure Regulus' happiness, even at the expense of putting his life on hold for a while.
    Regulus wants to ensure James doesn't fall into societal ruin because of him.
    Sirius wants to be loved.
    Barty must decide whether he wants to keep causing destruction or choose redemption.
    And Remus is just a very tired butler who watches James and Regulus dance around their actual feelings (literally).

    (Trans Reggie; set in the Victorian Age, 1890s. No horrible homophobia or transphobia depicted. Dysphoria is thematised.)
