    Summary

    James Potter thinks writing his story about a museum's cold-case archival project will be the most boring job of his career. Then, Regulus Black walks in: immaculate, infuriating, and hiding more than just classified files. The deeper they dig into a murder case tied to Regulus’s family, the more James realises that history isn’t the only thing being kept under lock and key.

    Or

    James needs to write an article on a museum's archives department, but ends up falling for the hot head of department instead (and solving a murder case while he's at it)

    Summary

    Regulus Black never imagined raising a child. But when his best friend dies, leaving her daughter in his care, he is overwhelmed with fear for the future.

    Desperate and out of his depth, he moves to the same neighborhood as his brother, hoping to get all the help he can.

    Little does he know, he's about to find that help —and much more— in unexpected places.

    Also, there's this hot dilf who teaches the neighborhood's kids.

    -

    "It takes a village to raise a child" is a proverb that means that an entire community of people must provide for and interact positively with children for those children to experience and grow in a safe and healthy environment.

    Summary

    What if Draco's story had been different than the one we know?

    The bond between him and his father withers before it can take root, while his relationship with his mother blossoms to the point of putting aside his father's racist teachings. But everything comes with its own consequences.

    Draco will learn this during his time at Hogwarts, between friendships with energetic boys and girls with dubious moral compass, a head of house who seems to want to adopt him, an overprotective house elf, housemates with too much free time and a couple of brothers who hate him unjustifiably. Oh and let's not forget Harry Potter, the boy who insists on talking to him.

    Summary

    A life partly forgotten; a love story remembered out of order. Harry resents this past version, the one he can’t access on demand. The one who looks at home in Draco Malfoy’s arms.

    Summary

    Regulus Black has been running for as long as he can remember—ever since he and his brother fled their oppressive family home at a young age, determined to make it on their own.

    But the years have worn him down, and the weight of survival has turned his life into a blur of exhausting jobs, empty nights, and endless isolation. Now, Regulus drifts through life as a ghost, quietly working as a university library assistant and sneaking into Economics lectures, hoping that knowledge will offer him a way out of the past that still haunts him.

    But when a certain professor hires him, Regulus meets his son James, his complete opposite, who craves to show him the beauty of connection.

    -

    Or:

    A pretty angsty, but still fluffy story that simultaneously follows the past of Sirius and Reg running away and doing anything to survive, and the present, where Regulus is pretty much a cold son of a bitch and James is absolutely whipped and does the most heart-warming shit for him. Also ft. Fleamont being a paternal figure to Reg, which I adore :)
