    Summary

    Complete <3

    "The need to protect Regulus from harm, from anything that would threaten him, has become a near obsession. James knows that he has a habit of single mindedness, latching on to things so tightly that they consume him. Of all of his unruly fixations, his protectiveness of Regulus has proven to be the worst."

    Trilogy of Marauders era/Hogwarts AU + after school (1975-1982), focused fully on James and Regulus POVs. Canon-divergent (adjacent if you squint), but the path to defeating Voldemort lies not in the prophecy but in Regulus' hands.

    Book 1 (1975): Chapters 1-32
    Book 2 (1976-1977): Chapters 33-72
    Book 3 (1978-1980 + epilogues 1982): Chapters 73-92

    Choices inspired - but I only write happy Jegulus endings, do with that what you will.

    Summary

    “You called her babe,” he muttered. James made a sort of confused noise against his neck.

    “I did,” he murmured. He was quiet for a moment, like he was waiting for Regulus to say more, but he didn’t. He pulled back slightly. “Is… is that it?”

    “I didn’t like it,” Regulus said like it was a warning.

    “Oh?”

    Regulus narrowed his eyes. “You did it on purpose,” he said, and it came out far more as an accusation than he intended, that same hot feeling from earlier surfacing again in his chest.

    James didn’t answer, just breathed a laugh and sucked at the skin under Regulus’ ear. Regulus tensed his jaw a little, and with his free hand, he snaked his fingers up into James’ hair and pulled his head back a bit so they were looking at each other in the eyes. James’ ears were red and his eyes were half-lidded, almost dazed. He blinked at Regulus slowly.

    Summary

    “Whatever, Rosier. Believe what you want. I couldn’t care less about Potter.” Regulus spat.

    “Good. Don’t waste your time. You know as well as I do that The James Potter doesn’t date anyone. He's gorgeous, obviously, but apparently no one here is good enough for him,” Evan scoffed. “Seven years at Hogwarts and the star quidditch player hasn’t found anyone worthy of his presence.”
    _____

    In which Regulus has had a crush on one James Fleamont Potter since he was eleven years old, and James is a lovable, oblivious idiot who platonically kisses people when he's happy/excited. James kisses Regulus in a moment of excitement, chaos and pining ensues.

    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

    Giyu is relaxing at home one snowy night when he has a visitor. It's Sanemi, and Sanemi is most definitely not okay. Giyu isn't great at comforting people, or interacting with people in general, but he'll try his best.
