Summary
James has always known exactly what Regulus Black is: a Death Eater who claimed the Imperius Curse and ran.
So when he returns five years later, thin and whispered about even among purebloods, James knows he should keep his distance.
Instead, he lets him make something for his son.
It should've been a simple commission. Somehow, James ends up waist-deep in Black family secrets, pureblood politics, and the growing sense that something is deeply wrong beneath it all.
Did the war ever really let Regulus go?

Summary
In 1967, Regulus Black loses a game of hide-and-seek.
In 1979, he is dragged, alive, from the underground lake.
In 1980, he turns reluctant spy for the Order.
These events are not connected.
But there’s a strange thread weaving through Regulus’s life, a splitting seam in the tapestry of his memories, a bogeyman that shadows his steps, and he can’t quite shake the feeling that he's missed something essential...

Summary
"...this love between her and Regulus was a strange thing. It had been built upon half-truths and stitched together with smoke, but somehow, against all odds, it stood. Despite every lie they'd fed each other, he still kissed her hungrily, as if he could reach inside and grasp anything honest that remained..."
Or: in August 1979, Adrienne's power-hungry family arranges for her to marry Regulus Black. They have no idea that she's also a spy for the Order, but she's not too worried about being discovered; after all, she's very good at pretending to be nothing but a little pureblood princess. But Regulus isn't quite what anyone expected, and he seems to be watching her right back...

Summary
“Do you think it would have been better if I was a boy?” Regulus asked, insecurity bleeding through her tone.
Sirius didn’t hesitate when he said, “Yes. Girls are so gross.”

Regulus Black is born a girl. This changes very little, and also everything.
