    Summary

    12:44 am. The phone rang.

    Remus took a deep breath before connecting to the call. “This is the suicide hotline, my name is John, can you tell me if you're safe right now?”

    “Hi John.”

    He muted before the choking noise he had just made could be heard. Oh hell no. There was not the faintest doubt in his mind who the person on the other line was and he hated it.

    Summary

    Euphemia Potter worked in a flawed system. She knew that. But even a flawed system can help some.

    But there were people it failed. Those who didn't get the help they needed.

    Like the case sitting on the desk in front of her.

    Summary

    There was not a single moment where James could say "that is when I knew something was off." Instead there had been a sense of unease that slowly shifted to suspicion. He didn't know when it started, just knew that at some point he'd stopped looking at Sirius just as his friend and started watching him like he was building a case for something.

    Summary

    He'd been told by James that Sirius was up in Gryffindor tower. What he'd neglected to mention is that he wassprawled across one of the armchairs, completely unbothered. When he saw Remus he just gave him a grin. "Hiya Moony. You're up early."

    It took several moments for Remus to even begin to process that. He had not expected calm. He'd expected tears and apologies at the very least. This was…

    Summary

    Regulus had always been too much for Maman. Too loud, too emotional, too needy. Too much to be loved.

    He tried. He tried to be quiet, tried to stay calm, tried to melt into the shadows, tried to keep to himself. But nothing could make up for the fact that his very existence annoyed her.

    Summary

    "Uncle Padfoot?" Sirius froze, it'd been awhile since Harry called him that, he was Sirius nowadays.

    "Yeah Bambi?"

    "If a teacher were... doing things they shouldn't be-" His voice died and after a moment Sirius took a deep breath.

    "What kind of things?"

    Summary

    "You're fine, you're going to be fine."

    He doubted Regulus would have understood him even if he was still conscious but he kept saying it, whispering promises he had no right making. He'd tried calling for help but there was no answer. It was just him, a lot of tears, and far too much blood.

    So he'd just sat on his baby brother's bedroom floor and cried.

    Summary

    Always and forever, that was our thing. A promise. I stopped promising forever awhile back. Because I will love you always, I can promise you that. But I stopped being able to promise you forever, stopped being able to promise myself forever. So I just stopped saying it.

    I became always and you became forever and I hate that I still think it's kind of cute.

    Summary

    (Cries for help never heard)

    And I keep trying to ask for help but it just doesn't fucking work and I've tried texting you, and telling Minnie, and calling Moony. I've just run out of ideas? I just need out, I don't even care how anymore. But I'm scared to kill myself and I'm a coward, if I can't even ask for help I don't know how I'm going to manage to off myself. I don't even think I'll send this, I already want to delete it. I just want help, why is this so fucking hard?

    Summary

    I would have helped, you know. I would have done anything to keep you around. Why couldn't you have said something? Did I really seem like I didn't care? Like I didn't love you?

    Effie says you knew I did but I don't believe her. She says a lot of things I don't believe. Like that someday this won't hurt as bad.

    Summary

    It felt filthy, not the fun kind, the kind that makes you want to claw off your own skin. Warmth that turned red hot. Painful, so indescribably painful.

    But it was Remus, and he had wanted to do this with Remus, he still wanted to do this with Remus. So he ignored it.

    Summary

    He wanted help, he wanted Sirius, he wanted out. He wanted to scream that he changed his mind and for someone to hear him and help.

    Regulus Black, for once in his life, didn't want to die.

    And as his vision went blurry and his lungs burned for air he couldn't get to, those words played on loop in his mind.

    Please, I don't want to die.

    Summary

    Sirius couldn't… he couldn't be suicidal. Regulus needed him and it was Sirius and Sirius was a happy person and he was strong and he just could not possibly be dead. He managed to open his phone again, finding that text still on his screen again. Biting down on his bottom lip to quiet his sobs he hit the call button.

    Somehow this had to be a mistake. An incredibly cruel joke maybe. He wouldn't even be mad if it was, as long as Sirius was okay.

    The phone rang out.

    Sirius never let the phone ring out.

    Summary

    To Walburga Black,

    I know you're not a fan of me, which is okay, because honestly I'm not a fan of you either. You're an abusive piece of shit and I hope your death is painful. But that's hardly the point.

    I've got both your sons now, you're not getting them back.

    Go fuck yourself,

    James

    Summary

    "I told you, don't tell-"

    "I've spent years watching you destroy yourself, shut up." Euphemia appeared in the doorway, summoned by James's desperate call. She quickly studied the situation, the dropped down next to the two boys.

    "Hi dear, can you tell me what's happening?" She worked as she talked, already pulling her wand from her pocket and muttering a quiet spell.

    "I didn' want you to-" The world swam as Sirius tried to sit up. "-know."
