Summary
In December 1977, Regulus Black did something brave. He ran.
With nothing but a wand he couldn’t use, a bag of money, and a desperate hope for survival, Regulus escaped into the muggle world mere days before his Death Eater initiation.
Against all odds, he’s taken in by three muggle artists who live loudly and love fiercely. Through them, Regulus discovers the strange, wild magic of acting. And he’s good at it. Too good.
***
Six years later, Sirius and James walk into a London cinema and see Regulus’s face, six feet tall, staring back at them from the screen.

Summary
James Potter takes some much needed time for himself for the first time in his 17 years of life. Instead of thinking deep thoughts and finding inner peace like he’s supposed to be doing, he finds a cat.
The cat, of course, is not just any cat and isn’t even that good at pretending like it is.
Meanwhile, Regulus Black’s sixth year is more stressful than anyone’s sixth year has any right to be and not just because he’s assigned himself the part time hobby of single-handedly taking down this generation’s great evil.

Summary
James Potter is returning to Hogwarts for his final year with one goal: to make it the most unforgettable one yet. No distractions, no regrets, no Lily Evans. Just Quidditch, pranks, and his boys. Until Regulus Black shows up looking taller, colder, and entirely too captivating for James' peace of mind.
As inter-house tensions rise and the Marauders navigate the looming weight of adulthood, James finds himself caught between loyalty and curiosity. Regulus is everything he shouldn’t want, but he can’t stop looking, and Regulus keeps looking back.
Meanwhile, Remus watches with too much understanding, Sirius refuses to see what's right in front of him, and Peter just wants everyone to survive N.E.W.T.s.
This is a story about the chaos of growing up, the messiness of friendship, and what happens when the one person you’re not supposed to fall for is the only one who sees you clearly.

Summary
Regulus chose drowning, chose death, chose black water, chose grasping white hands, chose obliteration.
And he never even got to live to enjoy his death.
Regulus walks into the water human and comes out something else. Two years later, he returns--a little more fae, a little less uptight, and entirely over it.-
James has never looked like this. Glowing, in fact. It’s absolutely disgusting. (Regulus has accepted the fact that he’ll look perpetually sopping wet for the rest of his eternal non-life.) “You look positively radiant. Quite daring for wartime, one should think.”
“You’re as dour as ever, Reggie. What, your little holiday in the sun didn’t lift your spirits?”
“You joke, but..." If Regulus had his spirits lifted any higher, they’d fly right out of his body.

Summary
Regulus opens his front door to the strangest event.
--
The stag has settled under Remus' touch now that he seems to have understood no one is pulling out a butcher’s knife and gutting it open. It is observing all of this with very curious, glassy, judgemental eyes.
Regulus glares at it. “Don’t look at me like this, my dude. You’re the one who tried to die.”
The stag, if possible, narrows its eyes. Then bleats in Remus’ face in complaint.
“Shh, you dumb beast,” Remus soothes.

Summary
“I’m a sadist,” Regulus said, cutting him off completely.
James stared at him, confused at the collection of words Regulus had just said. He was cowering in on himself, like he was ashamed, his hand holding James’s like it was a lifeline.
***
James Potter is a thirty-year-old photographer hired to photograph Lawyer Sirius Black and clothing designer Remus Lupin's wedding weekend, where he meets Sirius's beautiful brother Regulus Black. After a weekend of flirting and dancing around with one another, they learn that Regulus has a penchant for sadism, and James is well...he's a virgin. They dive head first into a dom-sub relationship to tend to their own individual wounds, but find that they love one another's company more and more with each scene.
OR
James is a 30-year-old virgin and Regulus is a sadistic dom without a play partner.

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.
“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
Sirius moves into a new apartment building and develops a crush on his neighbour, who never quite looks at him and rarely responds the way Sirius expects. Convinced the attraction is hopeless, he resigns himself to disappointment, unaware of how closely Remus has been noticing him, even without looking.
A winter of careful flirting, quiet misunderstandings, and a love that grows in the spaces between what is seen and what is sensed.

Summary
Sirius rides a flying motorbike, and snogs strangers in pubs, and strikes moody poses Remus finds irritatingly attractive. But for Remus, who drinks milky tea and wears flannel pyjamas, there's a chasm cracked right down the fault line between wanting and doing.

Summary
“This has to be some kind of conflict of interest,” Regulus says, his lip curling at James.
James shrugs, the idiot, “I don’t know.” His voice is weary, tired. He even looks tired, even though he’s been sleeping all day. In fact, he looks more than just a bit tired. There are deep, dark circles under his eyes, his hair is sticking up– and not in the endearing way it usually is– but simply out of control.
He’s thinner than he used to be, and his brown skin is sallow. Regulus’ eyes catch on the two massive bandages wrapping around his arms.
Jesus fuck.
Regulus had no idea James was… no. He couldn’t do this right now. He was here (and had been for some time now) to figure his own shit out. Not to worry about James’ suicidal ideations. Not to mention, he hated James. So this whole thing? It wasn’t going to work.

Summary
Sirius Black has never met a silence he didn’t want to fill with a bad joke, a cigarette, or a questionable hookup.
Remus Lupin, on the other hand, studies silences like they’re something sacred—catalogues them, respects them, knows when to leave them alone.Sirius is grieving. Or maybe just aggressively not-grieving. He’s tired, a little unhinged, probably smells like lavender-scented mold, and trying (sort of) to tick off a self-improvement list that mostly reads like someone shouted “healing” into a Pinterest board.
Then there’s Remus: tall, annoyingly clever, half-thrifted academic boy who smells like lemons and has zero patience for Sirius' rich-boy nihilism.
This is a story about grief, group counseling, guilt, weird eye contact, sweaty concerts, mildew apartments, and two idiots who share a bit too much trauma. It’s about how sometimes the quiet people see you clearer than anyone else. And how maybe, just maybe, that turns out to be terrifyingly right.THE STORY IS NOW COMPLETE.
