As requested on TikTok— Regulus has a gay awakening after getting thrown against the wall by Remus Lupin.Regulus does everything right, so why is it that all of the good that could come to him flows directly to his brother, Sirius? Regulus is three times the man Sirius is on paper, so what is it about Sirius that makes life come so effortlessly when Regulus is struggling so hard? The only thing Sirius has that Regulus doesn't is an open heart. Could it really be that simple? Regulus is about to find out.

Featuring: Regulus "This is Awkward" Black, James "Everything's Fine" Potter, Sirius "Drama King" Black, Remus "Its Complicated" Lupin, Peter "Actually Loyal in This Story" Pettigrew, & Severus "How Did I End Up Here" Snape.

Summary
All James wants is to get back at Lily, his on-again-off-again girlfriend. Maybe his best friend’s brother and his sworn enemy isn’t the right choice for that.
All Regulus wants is to win his family home from Narcissa in a battle of inheritance. James Potter is the key to doing that. So what if he uses James? Regulus is being used as well.
A dare, a debt, a family feud, and a few fistfights later, someone falls in love. Everything falls apart.
Still, it turns out the love they seek can be found in the strangest of places.
“You're doing what wrong?”
“…Life. Is this how it should be, blacking out every weekend, sleeping around recklessly? Coasting by from one numbing minute to the next?”
Smoke spilled from Barty’s mouth, and he looked over at Regulus, his eyes unreadable. “People like us don’t have the privilege of doing it another way, do we?”
Regulus paused at that. “Who are people like us?” he asked, his voice faint.
“Damaged, fucked up people. We didn’t grow up normal. We don’t get to be normal now.”

Summary
If James didn't do this, every awful thing he'd done to get into this room would have been for nothing.
This was the thought that moved his wand from his sleeve to his hand. Something inside of him was slowly turning to stone. Everyone always told him he was golden—did he have a Midas touch, a curse that turned everything he touched into things, immovable and dead, inanimate...?
———
On a cold day in October, Regulus Black asks James Potter to help him kill the Dark Lord.
James is swept up in machinations beyond his comprehension, and before his eighteenth birthday he has a Dark Mark on his arm and an innocent death on his conscience.

Summary
Regulus has it all figured out. He keeps men on a rotating roster so none can get too close, works nights as a dancer to make the most of his chronic insomnia, and pushes everything he doesn’t want to remember about the past ten years into the recesses of his mind. It’s easier to pretend none of it ever happened.
But when James Potter crashes into Regulus’ life with his fancy sports car, wealth beyond measure, and devil’s smile, it marks a switch in the natural order of things. James is a client; Regulus isn’t allowed to fall in love with him. Except James is the first man in a long time who can see past Regulus’ carefully constructed façade, and who could ever resist the temptation of being known?
Or, this is a story about identity, addiction, self-expression, and love in all of the varying shapes they can take.
