Summary
Regulus didn't expect his first day of university to go so smoothly.
That feeling of smoothness and ease has been foreign to him ever since his parents died.
The day that house burned down was both the best and worst day of his life.
Or
Ever since his parents died in a house fire 3 months ago, Regulus Black has been trying to rebuild his life, starting at his new university, Hogwarts. Little did he know he'd meet the love of his life, who just so happens to be best friends with his brother who he hasn't seen in nearly 3 years, and become integrated into a massive friend group where he has never felt more at home.
Or
College AU where everyone is in love and they are all awkward idiots

Summary
At the beginning of the Hogwarts 1977-1978 school year, James Potter finds a cat and Regulus Black finds a Horcrux.
These events are not unrelated.
What follows is a deal to their mutual benefit: James helps Regulus hone the finer details of advanced transfiguration, and in return, Regulus teaches James what he knows of occlumency and legilimency. James is pleasantly surprised by how much he enjoys their lessons, certainly more than he thought he would considering what (admittedly little) he knows of Sirius’s younger brother. Regulus, for his part, thought he was smart enough to know that anyone with as many secrets as him has no business teaching fucking mind reading to another person. Especially when that person is James Potter.
There is affection—the kind that only comes from meeting someone you never expected to understand you. And there is war—a looming thunderhead that neither of them wants to see consume the other.
The rest is a matter of secrets, family, and letting go.

Summary
Freedom feels sticky from the sweat drying on his skin, and smelly, and almost mundane—he's expecting something to happen, prepared for a fight, but there's nothing but Florida whizzing by through the window.
(or, Sirius walks out of hell on four-inch heels and finds his way home. )

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 Black survived the Cave at eighteen, only to be sent to Azkaban a few months short of nineteen.
The war was fought. Won. A Dark Lord destroyed. Death Eaters locked into Azkaban never to be seen again.
Now, as part of the Ministry's Reintegration Programme, Regulus and other disgraced faces are released under strict supervision, forced to confront a past he’s never been ready to face.
His new reality: a cold, impersonal facility, under the watchful eye of none other than James Potter, who’s reluctantly tasked with his rehabilitation. Potter’s presence stirs something in Regulus — something unsettling.
***
or: What if nothing is as it seems, Lily has to uncover the minds of deranged people, James is touch starved, and Sirius is mysteriously obsessed with redeeming his brother?
***
or: What happens with the children left behind?
