    Summary

    Grief, James finds, is circular.

    --
    “Does it get better?” He whispered once he had cried himself out and the tears had dried tightly on his face.

     

    “Better?” She repeated, and there was something anguished in her voice, a new and old grief twisted up together. “No.” Effie said, and Sirius’s heart dropped, but she quickly continued. “Though, it gets easier. Eventually, you’ll wake up and it won’t be your first thought every morning. It won’t shock you every time you remember that he's gone. There’s nothing better about losing somebody you love that much, but time will take the sharpness, and get you used to his absence. You’ll live the good parts of your life. You’ll get married, and have a family if that’s what you want. Whatever you desire, you’ll build it. And you’ll miss him for the rest of your life Sirius, but one day you’ll wake up and realize you lived through it.”

     

    “What if I don’t want to live through it?” Sirius asked, his voice small.

    Summary

    “Is that what your friends think of me?” James sneers. “That I’m the tall guy that used to fuck you?”

    “Well.” Regulus shrugs, licks the spoon clean and examines his reflection on its shiny surface. “Yes, and no. Also, I think we used to fuck each other. Don't you think? It was a mutual kind of fucking. Equally involved.”

    Or, Normal People but Jegulus.

    Summary

    Regulus has it all figured out. He keeps men on a rotating roster so none can get too close, works nights as a dancer to make the most of his chronic insomnia, and pushes everything he doesn’t want to remember about the past ten years into the recesses of his mind. It’s easier to pretend none of it ever happened.

    But when James Potter crashes into Regulus’ life with his fancy sports car, wealth beyond measure, and devil’s smile, it marks a switch in the natural order of things. James is a client; Regulus isn’t allowed to fall in love with him. Except James is the first man in a long time who can see past Regulus’ carefully constructed façade, and who could ever resist the temptation of being known?

    Or, this is a story about identity, addiction, self-expression, and love in all of the varying shapes they can take.
