Summary
We've all seen them. Well, if you didn't—that's on you. Romcoms! Who doesn't love them? One would have to guess that the correct answer is the actual characters living inside of it.
or
What happens when, in the middle of a fight Sybill had no business finding herself in, she casts a spell? Surely it cannot be that bad—just Regulus and James swapping bodies.
or:
A retelling of (numerous) romcoms through the Marauders. Set in the early 2000s, in a small town named Little London, at Hogwarts University.
or: frat boys, skater boys, beer pong, weird girls, one Catholic Mary, Sybill making everyone's lives harder and weed

Summary
At the beginning of the Hogwarts 1977-1978 school year, James Potter finds a cat and Regulus Black finds a Horcrux.
These events are not unrelated.
What follows is a deal to their mutual benefit: James helps Regulus hone the finer details of advanced transfiguration, and in return, Regulus teaches James what he knows of occlumency and legilimency. James is pleasantly surprised by how much he enjoys their lessons, certainly more than he thought he would considering what (admittedly little) he knows of Sirius’s younger brother. Regulus, for his part, thought he was smart enough to know that anyone with as many secrets as him has no business teaching fucking mind reading to another person. Especially when that person is James Potter.
There is affection—the kind that only comes from meeting someone you never expected to understand you. And there is war—a looming thunderhead that neither of them wants to see consume the other.
The rest is a matter of secrets, family, and letting go.

Summary
“Really though, Doctor.” Regulus crosses his arms, and the Doctor stops, tilting his head with a curious expression. “Who are you?”
And, once again, the Doctor tells him.
“You know when you’re a kid, and the adults tell you that the world is turning, but you just can’t bring yourself to believe it because it looks as though everything is standing still? Well, I can feel it.” He steps closer to Regulus, and takes hold of his hand, giving it a light squeeze. “I can feel the turn of the earth. The ground beneath our feet is spinning at 1000 miles an hour. The entire planet is hurtling around the sun at 67,000 miles an hour. And I can feel it. We’re falling through space, Regulus, you and me. We’re clinging to the skin of this tiny little world, and if we let go…”
The Doctor drops Regulus’ hand.
“That’s who I am. Now, forget me, Regulus Black.”

Doctor Who AU - James as the Doctor, Regulus as his companion. Time travelling, universe-exploring jegulus with plenty of angst but also happiness, I promise! You don't have to have seen the show to be able to read this (but you should, because it's an amazing show)

Summary
Regulus has owed his life to James Potter ever since he carried him out of the cave.
Seven years later, James comes back to collect on his debt, disrupting the quiet existence Regulus has carved out for himself.
All of a sudden, he’s hounding his every step, determined to become Regulus’ friend even as he coughs up petals tinged with blood.
And Regulus might just let him. Because this time, it’s his turn to save James.***
“Your concern is touching.”
“Yes. It’s what I’m known for. Serving Dark Lords and being concerned about my fellow Wizards,” Regulus snorts.
“And for being a mean Potions teacher,” James replies blandly, not rising to the bait.
“I can be quite mean, yes.”Bookmarked by bite_thehand

Summary
“Grace. What are you testing, question?”
Rocky. I can’t put this all on the guy right now. He should be happy. We are going to Erid. We are going to save his planet.
“CBC. A complete blood count.” I answer, hoping he doesn’t ask me why.
“Purpose, question?”
Rocky, please. I’m trying to spare you right now.
Basically, Grace gets exposed to a dangerous amount of radiation during an EVA and doesn't want to tell Rocky bc of what happened to Rocky's crew <3
THIS IS A REWORKED VERSION OF "TEMPEST" - after some comments, I wanted to keep the soul of the story, but make it more scientifically plausible. While there are still probably some inaccuracies, I still hope this isn't as messy as before.

Summary
All James wants is to get back at Lily, his on-again-off-again girlfriend. Maybe his best friend’s brother and his sworn enemy isn’t the right choice for that.
All Regulus wants is to win his family home from Narcissa in a battle of inheritance. James Potter is the key to doing that. So what if he uses James? Regulus is being used as well.
A dare, a debt, a family feud, and a few fistfights later, someone falls in love. Everything falls apart.
Still, it turns out the love they seek can be found in the strangest of places.
“You're doing what wrong?”
“…Life. Is this how it should be, blacking out every weekend, sleeping around recklessly? Coasting by from one numbing minute to the next?”
Smoke spilled from Barty’s mouth, and he looked over at Regulus, his eyes unreadable. “People like us don’t have the privilege of doing it another way, do we?”
Regulus paused at that. “Who are people like us?” he asked, his voice faint.
“Damaged, fucked up people. We didn’t grow up normal. We don’t get to be normal now.”

Summary
James slid to the floor across from him. It came with the easiness of familiarity that rooted itself deep into the body. Memories locked in muscle. They’d sat like this countless of times; a stance reserved for drunken nonsense after a long night out, for confessions, for musings and fears, for pockets of comfortable silence, for nothing but the radio.
This was the James from back then—perpetually sun-soaked, worry-less James—who handed out his little mercies and bathed you in light.
x x x
Regulus leaves his parents at 17, finding shelter with Sirius at the Potters' home somewhere along the rocky shores of Devon. What follows are the good years, then the unspeakable ones, and then, inexplicably—like a roach, a true Black—Regulus comes out the other end alive.
He just doesn't expect to stumble into the easy solace of James Potter and his five-year-old son.

Summary
James Potter’s life is a disaster. Divorced, disoriented, and trying to hold things together with an overexuberant preschooler, he’s doing everything he can to keep his small world from completely unraveling.
Regulus Black is supposed to be a ghost: long gone, long forgotten. Instead, he’s quietly rebuilding his life under a new name, babysitting his nephew to make rent, and avoiding the past like it’s contagious.
When Harry and Draco become fast friends James and Regulus are thrown together in a way neither of them expects.
A story about second chances, fractured families, and the quiet, complicated work of starting over.

Summary
He thinks he’s screaming, feeling the claws drag across his skin, letting blood pour out as if he has an infinite amount. He wonders if the lake will be blood-red after he dies.
Regulus reaches his hand up, hoping Sirius will help him. Sirius doesn’t reach back.
His hand is dragged back down, and all Regulus can do is close his eyes and focus on the good memories. The thought of the ocean, the thought of Sirius, and he thinks he’s smiling as he feels himself get drowsy. He lets go of his breath and allows himself to fade away.
Or
Regulus Black goes back in time, covered in scars, and hates life.

Summary
Regulus Black loves France. Which is why, when he's called into his father's office and coldly informed that he's going to be entering the same foreign exchange program that his brother did a few years prior---in Britain nonetheless---he has a very hard time believing that anything will ever be okay again. Within days, everything he's ever known is turned on its head. He's forced into a world with people he can't communicate with, customs he doesn't understand, and a brother whom he's not sure how to talk to anymore. It's hard to find his footing, when every step seems to fall out from beneath him, and every decision feels wrong.
Sirius Black hates France. The culture is lovely, but between the abuse of his parents and the crushing weight of their expectations, Sirius finds it hard to find things to reminisce about. Really, the only thing he misses is his brother, who slips further through his hands with every passing minute. When he gets the call, he’s almost happy for a moment. That is, until he’s very promptly informed that his brother blames him for being torn away from France, and becomes aware that this is very unlikely to bring them closer together.
Instead, it's likely to tear them completely apart.

Summary
In 1981, the war ended with Voldemort’s death. Thirteen years later, Regulus still lives in the shadow of his parents’ contribution to the cause. No matter how hard he works or how much he accomplishes, he can’t escape the weight of his family name.
With the biggest project of his career now in front of him, Regulus leaves London to pose as a Healer on the Romanian Dragon Sanctuary. The only hiccup is a variable he never could’ve accounted for: James Potter, whose presence disrupts Regulus’ plans and forces him to reconsider everything he thought he knew.

Summary
“I’m thinking of ending things.”
James pressed his lips together hard as he fought the urge to suck in a breath at the words. He instinctively reached for his binder of prepared materials and began to flip through it as if it would have the answer, rustling the pages frantically as he did.
“Hello?”
James flinched. “Um, hi, yes sorry it’s uh-- it’s my first day.”
A pause. Then, dry as a bone: “Brilliant. You’d think they’d at least train you to tell people not to kill themselves before handing you a phone.”
James froze, then panicked. “Oh God-- you’re right, I mean, of course-- I didn’t-- oh, shit, I just--”
James’s rambling was interrupted by a quiet sound, over so quickly he almost missed it.
The caller had laughed.
At him.
OR
A muggle college AU where James is a Psychology student who starts working at a crisis center. His first caller is dry, guarded, and somehow familiar, despite being a perfect stranger. Night after night their conversations continue, blurring all the lines between them, until the caller finally makes a choice that changes both their lives forever.

Summary
Regulus Black has two obsessions.
1) Hating his older brother’s best friend, James Potter. Has Regulus met the man before now? No. But he has deemed James Potter his mortal enemy since he was ten years old.
2) A certain voice actor by the pseudonym Jay, who makes “spicy” audios.
Regulus has always known the universe to have a sick sense of humour but he didn’t know it was this cruel. He’d recognize that voice anywhere. To Regulus’s shock and abject horror, James Potter is Jay, there’s no doubt about it.

Pole Position by anythingforourmooney_0

Summary
James Potter is the charming, chaotic host of Pole Position, Formula 1’s most beloved (and slightly unhinged) podcast. Between race recaps, garage gossip, and guest interviews, James has made a name for himself as the sport’s unofficial narrator—and possibly its loudest fan.
But his admiration for Red Bull’s star driver, Regulus Black, crosses the line from professional to obsessive. Quiet, controlled, and emotionally impenetrable, Regulus is everything James can’t shut up about—and everything he doesn’t dare get close to.
Until one late-night DM, one clipped reply, and one unexpected podcast appearance turn admiration into connection, and connection into something that feels dangerously like longing.
With Sirius Black stirring the pot from Ferrari, Peter Pettigrew whispering chaos from Alpine, and the entire F1 grid watching the story unfold in real-time, James and Regulus have to navigate media attention, emotional landmines, and the golden rule of the paddock:
Don’t fall for a driver. Especially not that one.
