    Summary

    Regulus has always known he's destined to drown. He feels it deep in his chest, past his rib cage, nestled somewhere behind his organs. He feels it in his arm when his mother squeezes it a little harder than a mother should. He felt it, the water rising in his throat, when his brother slipped out the window and into the night. He often wonders if it'd be easier to just let himself sink.

    He often wonders if he has a choice.

    Regulus gets sent back to school with a mission from the Dark Lord himself— find the “beast in the chamber” and claim its fangs without killing it. But when a certain curly-haired bespectacled boy asks for a rather large favor, everything suddenly gets a lot more complicated.

    Summary

    Regulus is a young writer with a burning hunger to be great. He walks the empty halls of Grimmauld Place, the memory of a brother long gone on his heels. He's looking for anything to feed his inspiration—a muse. James is his teacher, new to the area, and stagnant in his life.

    It's meant to be a game. It's not a game anymore.

    Summary

    "Baby Black, do you maybe not hate me?" James joked in a way that made Regulus feel uncomfortable.
    "You are the most annoying person I have ever had the displeasure of meeting. And that says a lot considering the absolute gems I've met in Slytherin."
    "A joke. Regulus Black made a joke. A mean one, at my expense, but a joke nonetheless... You know baby Black, we could be friends."
    "I would rather fling myself off the Astronomy Tower..."

    ***
    Or: Regulus is concerned about Sirius after their mother orchestrates a horrible attack. And with Sirius out of reach he relies on James Potter to know his brother is okay. Except their meetings keep happening, and their conversations keep falling away from Sirius. Falling for James Potter might just be the most reckless thing he's ever contemplated.
