Summary
At the beginning of the Hogwarts 1977-1978 school year, James Potter finds a cat and Regulus Black finds a Horcrux.
These events are not unrelated.
What follows is a deal to their mutual benefit: James helps Regulus hone the finer details of advanced transfiguration, and in return, Regulus teaches James what he knows of occlumency and legilimency. James is pleasantly surprised by how much he enjoys their lessons, certainly more than he thought he would considering what (admittedly little) he knows of Sirius’s younger brother. Regulus, for his part, thought he was smart enough to know that anyone with as many secrets as him has no business teaching fucking mind reading to another person. Especially when that person is James Potter.
There is affection—the kind that only comes from meeting someone you never expected to understand you. And there is war—a looming thunderhead that neither of them wants to see consume the other.
The rest is a matter of secrets, family, and letting go.

Summary
Maggots burrowed into the crow’s wet innards—its delicately encased lungs, the firm rubber of its heart, the string-like tunnels of intestines. As a swarm of flies buzzed in Regulus’ bedroom, that was when he heard it. A din of voices overlapping.
…you know how to say thank you, don’t…
…there we go…open for…just like…
…think good little boys…house of God…all messy?…
…lovely like this…such a…They spoke as an auditory palimpsest. Voice after voice, almost indistinguishable, as if it was a single force speaking.
A sibylline premonition slicing through time. A crow, giving warning.
Regulus Black goes missing for forty days.
He comes back different. Wrong.

Character death but I swear this is a fix-it fic with a happy ending.
