    Summary

    “Do you swear it?” Regulus looks deep into James’ eyes, waiting for the faltering, but there is none.
    “I swear it,” he says, gripping Regulus’ arm tighter.
    There’s a moment of silence, and then it is James who twists their arms, locking the charm in place. Not that either of them will remember it the following day, drunk as they are.

    ————————

    James and Regulus get really drunk and make an unbreakable vow. James swears that Regulus will be in love with him by the end of the year, and Regulus swears not to push him away and make him try. When they wake up the following day, they remember nothing of it. But everyone knows what happens if you don’t go through with it, so they can do nothing but try to recall and respect their drunken promises or be met by sweet old death. As if this wasn’t enough, their everyday problems seem to double by the minute. Between the vow and life as a student,

    It’s about to be a hell of a year.

    Summary

    “What do you want me to do?” Remus says, tiredly. All he wants is to curl up on his bed. Smoke a pack of cigarettes. Get drunk. He can’t stop looking at Harry.

    “Remus...” Dumbledore is gentle. Remus hates when he has that tone. Hates that he knows it will hurt. “There is no one else left.”

    A bitter laugh escapes him. “So you’ll curse the poor thing with a werewolf for a guardian?”

    Summary

    Barty broke the eye contact. “If there is a place where souls go after life, then there's someone waiting for me.” Sirius laughed humourlessly. “Yes, your father and I would really reconsider keeping my soul if afterlife looked like that.” Barty's next words were barely audible. “My husband.”

    An almost-everyone-lives-fix-it set after the Goblet of Fire. Regulus and Barty get a second chance.
