    Summary

    “I’m not fucked up,” James insists, then says calmly, “I just missed the way that you talk.”

    This. This was why they had to stop. In his worst moments, Regulus loathes the fact that Sober James all but ignores him most of the time, only bothering to text him on important holidays or birthdays. That is, until he’s reminded that Drunk James wants to ruin him— completely and thoroughly— by the casual cruelty of speaking his mind and expecting Regulus to go on peacefully with his life as if he didn’t just upend it entirely.

    Summary

    “Regulus.”

    Oh, he is going to kill someone, perhaps himself, Regulus thinks, as he meets the eyes of the man behind the counter, the man who had just spoken his name in that cold, unfeeling tone, the man who used to speak it as if he were prying open an oyster and finding a precious pearl in every syllable.

    This is not happening. This is not supposed to be happening. Regulus had planned specifically so that this would not happen. He frowns, “Why are you here?”

    “What do you mean why am I here?” James scoffs, “This is my job. Of course I’m here.”

    Summary

    It's Christmas Break at Starfell Lodge and four boys each have a conundrum on their hands this holiday season. Sirius Black is on a mission to talk to the cute barista he sees every winter, and this time he's not going to mess it up. Remus Lupin is hellbent on ignoring the Snow Angel (annual, disgustingly wealthy vacationer) who seems determined to be his friend. Regulus Black will do whatevever it takes to never set eyes on James Potter again. James Potter is desperate to get back into Regulus' good graces, not knowing what he did to push him away in the first place.

    Or:

    The Blacks and the Potters spend every winter break at the same ski lodge in Wyoming, inviting chaos from a cast of characters who've all seen a little too much of each other over the years but still have so much to learn.

    Summary

    Leaning against the doorframe, James takes a second to study the sway of his hips, the curve of his back, the hint of his profile. He doesn’t need to look at his face to know he’s beautiful, angelic even, but even watching him with intent sometimes can’t prepare him for that swooping sensation of knowing that the man in front of him is his. And his only.

    “You’re staring,” Regulus comments, light eyes flicking towards James as he glances back over his shoulder. His gaze softens, one corner of his mouth tugs up into a pleased smile, and James is in love, desperately so.

    Or, in which James is stressed, Regulus is helpful, and everyone is in love, the softest kind of it.

    Summary

    There's a stack of pictures heavy in his hands. The first one confirms his suspicion. It is of himself entering a gay bar on Old Compton Street. Dread settles deep in his stomach as his father says, “Next one.”

    He swallows and places the picture at the back of the pile. The next one is of him at the bar, taken from the corner of the room. A man a few years older than Regulus sits beside him, his hand touching Regulus' upper arm. They're smiling, and Regulus is holding a drink in his hand.

    He doesn't wait for his father to instruct him to look at the next one. He's leaving the bar with the same man in the third picture.

    They're walking down the streets in the fourth one.

    In the fifth, Regulus is pushed up against a wall in an empty alleyway. His hands are underneath the man's shirt, and their lips are connected in a filthy kiss.

    Tears start to well up in his eyes, but he continues anyway.

    Regulus runs away from home just like his brother did five years ago.

    Summary

    James smiles at Regulus, already seated when he walks in, already with two steaming cups of coffee. Regulus smiles back and thinks about how the only thing he has left to look forward to these days is a monthly information drop with his ex-boyfriend and a drink that he hates. He’s living a charmed life, that’s for sure.

    A story about coming back.

    Summary

    Even now, he doesn’t consider Regulus a mistake. He’s sorry for so much of it, for so many reasons, but not because it was wrong. He’d seen Regulus first as a drowning body in a lake, and then as a boy so clumsy with love but desperate for it all the same, and then as the only thing James wanted to save in his entire life.

    His only mistake, maybe, was thinking that everyone who wanted to be loved also wanted to be saved.

    The aftermath of the Mark, and how no ending is ever as clean as it seems.

    A story about regret, mistakes, and the lack thereof.

    Summary

    REGULUS: (noticing now) Where’s Evan?

    Silence. BARTY rubs his hands on his trousers, for no reason. They’re clean.

    REGULUS: Barty— (beat) Where is Evan?

    BARTY stares at the wall just behind REGULUS, adored with various family portraits, all of them glaring imperiously. The space just behind him is bare wallpaper, a curious facsimile of where his own portrait will hang, someday.

    BARTY: He’s dead.

    A story told in one act.

    Summary

    Regulus already knew that this is a game. It’s been one since the beginning, whether James wants to admit it or not. It’s a game, because neither of them can afford it to be anything else, to grow into something real. James seems to like acting dumb about it, but Regulus knows better. Knows to keep his distance and establish some boundaries.

    Or at least he does in theory.

    Summary

    James isn’t sure he believes in monsters, but of all the monsters to believe in, vampires don’t seem so far-fetched. Vampires are easy. Stakes, crosses, holy water. James can do vampires.

    Regulus Black, though—he's anything but easy.

    Summary

    Regulus Black is thrown into The Marauders' world when an article comes out speculating about a feud with his brother, Sirius. Much to the chagrin of all parties involved, it seems they're going to have to put up with each other for a while, or at least until the news cycle picks up something else to report on.

    The things they'll do for good press, right?

    Summary

    Through the smoke and dark lighting, it’s hard to make the man out, but his looks really don’t matter. This isn’t about what Regulus wants in a partner, it’s about what he needs to survive. At the moment, he’ll take whatever he can get.

    Regulus pushes himself off the bar and languidly makes his way over to the other man, eyelids drooping and cheeks flushed, drunk on the smell of arousal alone. Only when he’s close enough to see the man does he truly pause, eyes widening fully and breath hitching in his throat. He thinks his eyes must be playing a trick on him, so he blinks a few times, but the image remains the same.

    Summary

    “Aren’t you just the littlest bit proud of me?” Regulus asked. “Made it all the way back home without you knowing.”
    “Six security officers watched you climb and then fall off a fence. We have it on camera. You could’ve just told me you wanted to leave. I would’ve taken you out the back, you muppet.”
    Regulus stifled a laugh. Maybe he wasn’t as sober as he thought.

     

    x x x

     

    Regulus is the unwilling son of the foreign secretary. James is his six-foot, sex-on-legs, Krav-Maga-wielding, Margaritaville-loving "Specialist Protection Officer".

    Regulus has no choice but to fuck him.

    Summary

    The thing was, it had seemed like it was already as bad as it was going to get; what could be worse than living with your brother’s best friend, who you happen to be in love with, who sees you as nothing more than an extension of your brother he just has to hang out with sometimes?

    Apparently, the answer was having to pretend, to pretend, to be in love with him.
