Summary
James looks back at him, taking him in properly, his gaze slow and judgemental. When he meets Regulus’ eyes again, the corner of his mouth is turned up in a cruel smirk.
“So, this is the perfect brother.” His eyes zero in on the mess around his bed. “I have to say, you’re not quite what I expected.”
Regulus feels a tell-tale flush rising up his neck, into his cheeks. He straightens imperiously. “I have to say, I wasn’t even aware of your existence up until moments ago. But nice to know that you’ve been thinking of me.”
OR:
The first time Regulus meets James, he hates him.
This keeps happening until, one day, he doesn’t.

Summary
A long slow-burn fic from Regulus’ POV, beginning in 1972.
In this version of the story, Remus Lupin never goes to Hogwarts. His parents keep him home, afraid someone might discover their son is a werewolf. Instead he receives private magical tutoring and attends Muggle schools.
Sirius Black eventually meets Remus anyway. But Regulus Black saw him first.
This story explores how it might have changed Regulus’ fate if the two of them had found each other and he hadn’t been alone.
[I reject J. K. Rowling’s transphobic views. May she rage helplessly every time fandom makes her characters queer.]

Bookmarker's Notes
I freaking love this fic,the way it's written is so stimulating.The pacing isn't to fast or to slow and there's a good balance of fluff and angst.Even the angst is good like I love this story soooo much<33
