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.

He doesn’t care. The ten seconds lapsed, and Evan didn’t move, and now Moody will die as a blind man because he made Barty decide to leave him.

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.

Bookmarker's Notes
Curious, Evan rolls up his sleeve. His forearm is bare. He finds himself slightly taken aback by the remorse that the sight stirs up. He didn’t want the mark. He didn’t. But Barty wanted him to have it. And for a second there, they were together in something.
They don’t match anymore.

“I love you,” he says when he pulls back, watching Evan’s eyes go wide.
“Yeah?” like he really doesn’t know. Like he can’t believe it. Like that’s something he wants.
“Yeah.”
Evan reaches out, pushing the hair off of Barty’s face. “Love you too Bee.”

Summary
Somewhere along the lines his faith became a little blurry. That was until a little blurry turned into him near black out drunk and stoned in the middle of the road by himself, knuckles bruised and the taste of blood still in his mouth laying down on the double lines under a blanket of stars praying for a truck.
When the truck never came, he knew that God was no longer with him, and he was no longer with God.

Every second of the past year has amounted to this current moment. A definitive moment in Barty’s journey. From his fall. Slipping from the grasp of God and finding home in the arms of something far more special

Summary
Barty decides, Evan is just too pretty to be standing on the side of the road like that. And Barty has a preference for pretty things. So he wonders, almost idly, what that pretty face will look like after he ruins it.
-
Evan wonders what would happen if he decided to climb onto Barty's lap right now, mid-drive and kiss him stupid. Rut against him like a feral fucking animal.
They'd crash and die like roadkill. That's what would happen. Oh well, that's fine. These things happen. Tragic, sure, but sacrifices must be made.Bookmarked by giicarli

Summary
Evan went through some humiliations in life, but receiving an invitation to his ex-fiancé's wedding with the guy he left him for was probably the worst of them all, and the plus-one invitation was a hit to Evan's pride.
He didn't have someone to go with him, and though the simplest solution was to not go, Evan thought that going with the most beautiful man by his side to show his ex how much he was over him was the perfect payback. The problem was that Evan had no idea who that man could be.
Until he meets Barty. Barty who's beautiful, sharp, alluring and the opposite of his ex. The perfect date.
Barty, who's also very expensive and doesn't work with the type of date Evan needs at all."So, to make sure I got all right, you want to pretend we're dating until the wedding so you can rub in your ex's face?" Barty asks, unimpressed. "And you'll pay me for every date at the price I suggested? Without the sex?"
"That's right," Evan nods. "I have a lot of money, I can spend it all on you. No sex involved, I'll be extremely professional."

It all started with a broken, beautiful boy that stole his breath away and made the world stop. Evan is sure it will end with him as well

Summary
When Regulus Black woke up in 1991 after he was supposed to die twelve years prior, he realized two things. One, the locket he had worked so hard to steal had never been destroyed so the Dark Lord was still alive. And two, Harry Potter, James Potter's son, was in danger.

Regulus goes to school with the Golden Trio.

Summary
“They’re… chaos,” Remus said firmly. “And chaos is—”
“Rock and roll.”
He looked at Sirius sharply, and for once, matched his grin. “Yeah.”
“Maybe that’s my excuse then,” Sirius said. “I cause a bit of chaos now, and maybe one day, it’ll turn into rock and roll.”After losing his mother at age eleven, Remus has spent the better part of the last four years bouncing from school to school or else running around London and pretending as though he wasn't the kind of well-bred boy his father brought him up to be. Now, with his chances all run out, Remus is sent to Hawkings Independent School as a last-ditch effort to clean up his act. There he meets the very people who will set up the rest of his life, and is forced to confront the pieces of himself he'd long thought had been lost.
(genuinely not apologising for the slow-burn in this fic anymore. You've been warned <3)
