Summary
He makes it through the crowd, roughly pushes his sleeves up, and glances around. Down the hallway, past a few groups of people standing around, coming and going, Remus sees someone slip into the bathroom.
Long legs with the black stockings.
He swallows as he dips past the bar, rounds the corner, and shoves the door open.
And Remus’ head is a mess as soon as he’s on the other side.
He’s sitting on the counter, legs swinging underneath. Long fingers painted black, gripping the edge of the tile, and there are stars drawn on his shoes. Little pen marks all over, beat up, and looking like any reasonable person would buy new ones or at least forgo wearing them out to the club, but there they are knocking around.
One shoe is untied, dirty laces hanging, and Remus’ fingers twitch.

Summary
There’s a war in the Magical world, and James should really be focusing on his work for the Order and on keeping his friends safe. But his thoughts won’t stop spinning, and he’s charged with a restless and destructive energy that he just can’t shake. At least not until he runs into Regulus Black at a Muggle gay bar. Regulus is off limits and bad news, and the idea that he shouldn’t is the only thing James needs to follow Regulus home.
What starts out as a reckless way to release tension quickly turns into a romance that should never be because Regulus is a Death Eater – and more importantly – Sirius’s brother. Except Regulus doesn’t want to be a Death Eater, and James was never very good at avoiding the things he should.

step into the daylight and let it go by serendipitysirius

Summary
James Potter loved Lily Evans from the moment he knew what it truly was to love anybody. But, in the end, it didn’t matter that James had declared that he would never love anyone else but Lily. Because he still lost her.
One year on from Halloween 1981, James is struggling to raise Harry alone whilst drowning in an impenetrable dark sea of grief, determined to never love again. Because, in his experience, to love, is to lose.
Luckily, Regulus Black knows quite a lot about loving and losing. And drowning, too, considering the fact that he survived the cave in 1979 and faked his death for two years, popping in to give Sirius the fright of his life on Halloween.
And, consequently, showing up just in time for the events that followed. The shattered remnants of people that the war left behind.
Maybe Regulus will be able to show James that it’s okay to extinguish the first love flame, whilst simultaneously giving him the parenting help he is too ashamed to ask for. And, in return, maybe James will manage to convince Regulus that love isn’t something you earn, something that always has a catch.
Maybe they just needed one another all along, to take that step into the daylight.

Summary
James doesn't remember much more than his first name when he wakes up in the maze. In fact, it's the only thing he remembers—and meeting Regulus for the first time almost makes him forget it again, but that's neither here nor there.
Regulus has been in the maze for much longer than James, knows its dangers and enigmas well enough by now—but when he stares down at their most recent newcomer, he can't possibly predict that everything is about to change.
Neither of them knows yet why they are trapped in this deadly puzzle, or what lies beyond it; and neither can fathom how far they will have to go to get out of it alive, nor how it will cost them so much more than what they are willing to pay.
Pawns trapped in a deadly game of riddles whose only solution seems to be death, love so brutally challenged it can only turn into grief, and a world falling apart in tune with its people, who can only watch as the fresh blood on their hands dries into sorrow.
Welcome to the Maze.

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.)

Summary
Lily realizes one thing the 31st October of 1981: Dumbledore can't protect them. She decides she can't get rid of Voldemort herself and needs her friends, all of them, to be united against the common enemy. For that, she digs in her power as a Dark Witch and rewinds time with James at her side.
Now that they've defeated Voldemort, Lily can rest and watches her son go through Hogwarts peacefully, like he was meant to be. Except he wasn't meant to do that, and now he's in Slytherin, he has a crush on a blonde boy who is the absolute worst, and Voldemort might not be that defeated after all.

“well it was lovely meeting you” Remus stated
“you too” and with a final wave Sirius walked out of the cafe, looking at the sign he read “Blaidd cafe”Yeah, he was definitely coming back.
—————-All sirius wanted to do was waste some time whilst his friend James was on a tinder date, the last thing he expected was to fall immediately in love with the barista. A sweet introverted english literature nerd with some health issues.

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.

Summary
Regulus’ mood is as dark as the clouds gathering outside when he pads down the hallway and into the kitchen. He expects James to be off on his usual morning run through the city, but stops in his tracks at the sight of him leaning against the counter, arms crossed and a sly grin pulling at his lips.
“James,” Regulus says, voice surprisingly steady considering what’s in front of him, “what are you wearing?”
The answer is a thousand kilowatt smile—the sort James uses to get exactly what he wants. “Don’t you like it? I wore it just for you, love.”

Summary
‘No.' Is all Sirius manages to think when the bottle stops. 'No. No. No.'
This isn't fair. This is so, so, far from fair.
“Right." Remus mutters, and Sirius can feel his distain as though it's shards across his skin.
There was a time when they would've laughed; gleeful at the prospect of kissing each other in front of the others. Or when they would've blushed; shy but eager as Remus' scarred hands cupped Sirius' cheeks, smoothing the worry away before leaning in and pressing his lips against Sirius; sweet and naive but so, so sure.
But this time, it's nothing like that.
or
Just a slightly devastating fic with a happy ending (heartbreaking but healing sobbing in each others arms) about how a game of spin the bottle post-prank leads to panic attacks and, quite surprisingly, healing. And how the entire situation 100% gave James his first gray hair.
This is part 2 of a series of angsty marauders spin the bottle fics!
