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.”

When he meets Remus Lupin, a kind-hearted blacksmith from District 9, Sirius finds himself falling in love despite his free-spirited nature.

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.
How he wants, though. How he wants.

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.

PLEASE MIND THE TAGS AND ALL TRIGGER WARNINGS! I have updated the rating of this story to MATURE to better reflect the content within and to provide readers with better expectations. I have added a "graphic descriptions" tag as well to warn that things may seem more graphic to some than others, and I want to make sure everyone is properly prepared. This story will address SI and SA, though the second one is not described graphically, it is more referenced to. I do know there are themes and parts of this story that may seem like I should be "cancelled", but also keep in mind that I started writing this story 17 years ago when I was only 18, and finished it approximately 5-6 years ago at age 30. The world was a different place, and I have learned and matured. I have been working on a full edit for a long time now.

Summary
In his final year of university, James Potter begins to unravel.
Haunted by the recent suicide of his father—who struggled with schizophrenia—James finds himself hearing whispers from the stars, watching shadows move, and sensing a presence too familiar to be imagined. As the boundaries between reality and delusion blur, James’s life spirals into a surreal, fractured world that only a few are willing to enter.
The quiet intensity and unwavering devotion of Regulus Black, James’s not-so-secret lover and closest confidant, tether James to moments of clarity. But love alone may not be enough to silence the voices or stop the stars from singing. Pandora Rosier, James’s roommate during inpatient treatment, becomes both a spiritual, schizophrenic guide and a dangerous influence—feeding his visions with myth, magic, and cryptic wisdom.
Told through vulnerable narration, journal entries, letters, and fractured memories, The Stag and his Black Stars is a tragic, hauntingly beautiful portrait of a brilliant man caught between worlds—of lucidity and madness, love and loss, shadow and starlight.
In the end, James must decide: is he breaking apart, or becoming something beautiful?
