    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.]

    Summary

    Remus Lupin has a congenital heart defect, and is awaiting an available heart for transplant. Sirius Black is an immature twenty-something, living with a couple other immature twenty-somethings. Both are obsessed with the same obscure book, which becomes their coping mechanism for navigating their instant and torrid love affair. Life, they discover, is precarious at best, but from each other, they learn how to make it something that's worth living.

    Summary

    "Regulus Black is never going to catch a break.

    He wants to bury his face in his hands and groan into them. The only reason he restrains himself from doing so is that the other figure skaters have started glancing over at him—probably wondering why the hell he’s talking to a hockey player. Regulus would very much like to know too.

    Oblivious to everything else, James raises an eyebrow towards Regulus. 'I guess we’ll be seeing each other around, then?'

    Seriously, how has James still not gotten the goddamn hint."

    ❅ ❅ ❅

    When Sirius moves out, Regulus Black thinks that maybe James Potter will finally be out of his life too.

    Good. Competition season is coming up, and it'll be his first year at the junior level. As the upcoming skating star of the Black family, Regulus can't afford to lose–and the absolute last thing he needs is a hockey player to mess everything up for him. All he needs is for James to stay out of his way, and he'll be good as gold.

    James doesn't stay out of his way. And Regulus has a long way to go before he can even think about bearing a medal around his neck.

    Summary

    “If you’re going to kill me,” the boy wheezed, “I want your name.” Sirius froze.

    The boy’s voice was hoarse but steady. His mouth was bloodied, nose smeared red. His chest rose and fell in ragged pulls. But his eyes—those warm, steady eyes—were locked onto Sirius like he could see him. Not just his face, but his soul.

    “I’m James.”

    ~~~

    When the sea calls, it does not whisper. It drags.

    Sirius and Regulus Black are sons of the infamous pirate lord, Blackbeard. When their crew attacks a merchant ship and Sirius leaves a survivor, the tide shifts. That survivor is James Potter, bound for a quiet life in Kingston. But safety is a lie the sea does not tolerate, and destiny has charted him a darker course. With him, Lily Evans plays the part high society demands of her—despite being something else entirely. Her best friend, Remus Lupin, masters his craft in a stifling forge that cannot contain his heart—or his temper.

    They were five souls adrift—until the sea pulled them under. When the wind whispers, when a pirate prince chooses ruin over rescue, when the descendant is called home—everything they thought they knew begins to unravel.

    A Marauders pirate AU.
