Summary
Remus is a PhD student and hobbyist baker who finds himself adrift following his father’s death. On a whim, he enters the Great British Bake Off and is swept up in a flurry of curdled custard, shrunken souffle, and under-proved dough. Remus expects to be challenged and to embarrass himself on public television. What he doesn’t account for are the friendships he develops with the other contestants and the deep connection he forms with his teenage crush, Sirius Black: charming ex-boy band member and Bake Off presenter.
or,
Sirius groans, dropping his head back into his hands. “It’s the dough,” he mumbles into the skin of his palms. “It’s the kneading. It’s his hands. They’re obscene.”
Lily laughs. “They are a bit, aren’t they?”

Summary
No one, it turns out, really knows one another.
(OR: all it takes is a summer-long holiday in Italy, James Potter's teetering mental stability, a secret relationship, friends with benefits, Marlene’s secret, and enough stupidity and insecurity to go around for everything to come crashing down around them.)

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
“Anything else you need to borrow?”
“Yes,” James pants a little out of breath. “Your name.”
“You want to borrow my name?” The pretty neighbour crosses his arms and leans against his door frame. “How are you planning on giving it back to me?”
James sucks his lower lip between his teeth and considers the question only for a second. “Screaming, later, if you want me to.”
–
or: James finds out his new neighbour is very pretty, Regulus finds out his new neighbour is very bad at baking, and both find a lot of excuses for James to knock on Regulus' door again

Summary
“The moon is so beautiful,” Sirius whispered, eyes wide as he stared at it in the sky, the light bouncing off of his awed face.
I would give it to you, Remus thought helplessly, eyes transfixed on something so much more beautiful than the orb that he resented in the sky. Just take it out of the sky and hand it to you. I would give you anything you asked for.

Summary
In the cave, Regulus doesn’t beg for it to stop. He begs not be left behind, alone.
Perhaps this is why, when Kreacher gives one last look over his shoulder and sees terrible, pale hands reaching for his master, he appears in a flash at Regulus’ side, clutches him by the elbow, and Apparates them both out of the cave, directly disobeying his master’s last order.

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
James reaches out again and Regulus lets him take his cigarette for another drag. A slow exhale before he speaks, “I think I quite like the smell of cigarettes. Yours, especially.”
“I refuse to be the reason of getting you hooked,” Regulus replies, taking his cigarette back. It’s nearly gone now.
“Perhaps I’m already hooked,” James murmurs, leaning in a bit closer.

Or the one where Regulus decides to throw rules and expectations out the window and James might just be way too happy about it.

Summary
“Everything will be different now.” She continues. “Starting today...more will be expected of you than ever before. And you can not fail me–fail your family. Do you understand?”
“Yes, mother.” Because of course he does. Regulus understands what today means. He knows that he will never get a moment to be truly and completely alone again. That is why he had slipped away to the music room instead of attending breakfast. It was his last moment of peace. His goodbye to his old life in which he could enjoy his solitude. Because after today, all eyes would be on him and his family. After today, he would never be allowed to wander anywhere without supervision. Not even in his own home. Because today is the day he becomes a prince.
~~~
King Riddle has declared the Noble House of Black as his heirs to the Pureblood Throne among a viper pit of power hungry, envious nobles. Regulus and Sirius struggle to navigate life as royals where everyone they meet could want them dead, even those closest to them.

Summary
"James." Regulus rasped. James leaned back and shook his head gently.
"Not this time, baby." He muttered quietly, raising his hand and tracing a path down the edge of Regulus' cheek, who shuddered subtly in response. "I told you I'd wait until you acknowledged you wanted to do it again."
"Can I?" Regulus burst out breathlessly "Can I indulge without being forced to face the consequences, without having to acknowledge what it..." Regulus trailed off, closing his eyes. When he reopened them, James shook his head softly, an alarmingly open expression of sympathy and fondness in his eyes.
"Not with this, sweetheart," James responded gently. "You'll just have to decide whether it's worth it."
James Potter is a cocky arrogant git who gets into people's business when no one wants him to
Regulus hates him
He hates him but is the only one who can save him
Yet Regulus knows he can only keep him, or keep him safe. He only knows of one way he can ensure James Potter lives. And if it breaks his heart, so be it.This fic will be split into two parts. The first set in Hogwarts, the second set outside of it, before and during the war.

Summary
James pulls Regulus back toward him like he wants to make sure he’s safe now. Regulus tenses, briefly, then sags against his chest. The gust of James’s breath tickles his ear. “I told you from the beginning, Potter, you can’t save everyone.”
With tightening arms, James says, “Watch me.”
Or
While his friend group struggles to heal from a misguided prank, James Potter finds solace in a grumpy Slytherin. Falling in love is an unexpected side effect. (Not that he is complaining.)
Or
Regulus Black goes to the Astronomy Tower for some peace, but what he gets is an annoying Gryffindor who won't leave him alone. Falling in love is unavoidable. (Trust him, he tried to avoid it.)
