Summary
“Because I don’t get to want you,” James said, stepping closer. “Because you’re Sirius’ little brother. Because you’re fucking perfect. Because I’d rather tear myself apart than hurt you. But God Regulus, its taking everything in my soul to stay away from you.”
OR
Regulus' summers between college years usually consist of walking around Montreal, finding new places to hide from the world and trying his very best to ignore his family. However, this summer is different. His parents are spending it in France and therefore offer him an ultimatum: France with them, or Ontario with Sirius. France is out of the question. Which leaves a glass front lake house in Ontario. A house owned by James Potter's family, Sirius' college best friend, and as far as Regulus is concerned, a total prick.
Drawn magnetically together, James and Regulus embark on a three year long secret situationship. Its casual. Its nothing. Well.... until it isn't, and secrets have a way of worming their way to the surface... eventually.

Summary
"Let's throw a New Year's Eve party!" Sirius had said. "It’ll be fun! Almost everyone stayed for the Winter Formal this year, we can't pass this opportunity up, please please please, James!"
James was a schmuck. Of course he said yes.
A handful of days before the big event, he learned the truth - the evening was to serve as a backdrop for Sirius's confession to Remus. The 'plan'? Get drunk and wing it.
Unable to sway Sirius from his awful idea, James turned to an unlikely ally for help - his best mate’s brother. Working with Regulus was so easy, he had total confidence they’d keep Sirius from mucking it all up... until things start falling apart when jealousy gets the better of James.
(Fortunately for them, they're not the only ones ringing in the New Year with a scheme.)

Summary
6 times Regulus surprised James and One Time he reacted exactly like James thought he would.
***
Regulus is sitting on his broom, lazily balancing himself, leaning forward and throwing the snitch into the air, catching it again. All shyness and self-consciousness have fallen from him. Looking at him, one might think this boy isn’t capable of blushing or self-doubt – and he sure as hell isn’t scared of them.
“Hey, Potter,” he calls, still throwing and catching the snitch, “Hope I didn’t embarrass you too much.”

Regulus thought after what happened when Sirius came out, his mother would have reacted differently when it was his turn to make the confession. That she wouldn’t lose both sons. But he was wrong.
That’s how he finds himself waiting to be picked-up by the brother he hasn’t seen in 3 years. Ready to crash on his couch in the small city of Berkeley, California.
Sirius’ flatmates are a far cry from his London friends. There’s his boyfriend, Remus. A graduate student who plays albums that sound more like noise than melody. Peter, who’s quiet and kind and brings everyone coffee and bagels from his job. And James, who seems intent on ignoring Regulus’ presence completely, even when Regulus gets a job beside him at their local record shop.
Or, James Potter was doing his best not to defile his roommate's younger brother because Sirius told him to “keep his slutty hands off of Regulus or else," but finds himself unable to keep the promise.

Summary
If there is one thing James Potter loves it is Regulus Black, his favourite actor and celebrity crush. Luckily, a fan convention is being held close to his house and for the first time, James is able to attend. With his best friend by his side, James readies himself to meet the love of his life.
Unfortunately, or perhaps fortunately, it does not quite go as planned.
[or, James and Remus are fans of Regulus and Sirius, and somehow this leads to something more]

Summary
So no, it didn’t surprise Peter when James and Lily broke up. It didn’t surprise Peter when James fell for the younger Black brother, a more intense and messed up version of Sirius, if that was even possible. It didn’t surprise Peter when this boy brought out the side of James that he never let anyone see if he could help it. The angry, jealous and possessive streak that everyone else thought didn’t exist.
OR: the Prewett twins touch Regulus when he doesn’t want them to and James sees red.
(Skip the prologue from Peter's pov if you want! It's absolutely not a need to read it.)

"Reg, you need to look at me.", James said, framing the face of the younger boy after taking a tiny step back, and the dying look in his beautiful eyes almost killed him too.

Terms Of Safe Keeping by GaryXxXCarl
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling, Marauders - Fandom
03 May 2026

Summary
As the final days of term settle uneasily over Hogwarts, the looming threat of the outside world presses closer than anyone wants to admit. James Potter, reckless and fiercely loyal, decides he’s done waiting for things to go wrong—especially where Sirius’s estranged brother is concerned.
Cornering Regulus Black in a quiet corridor, James makes an outrageous offer: leave everything behind and come live with him. What begins as a desperate attempt to keep Regulus safe quickly spirals into something sharper—charged with tension, wit, and a dangerous kind of curiosity neither of them can ignore.
Regulus is poised, guarded, and far more perceptive than James anticipated. But he listens. He bargains. And when he accepts, it’s on his own terms—turning James’s impulsive plan into something far more complicated than rescue.
Because safety isn’t the only thing being negotiated.
And some arrangements come with very intimate conditions.

Summary
When a teacher strike cancels school, James Potter declares freedom and drags his friends into town for an unplanned adventure. What they don’t expect is to find Regulus Black—Sirius’s younger brother—running a one-boy traffic rebellion outside a primary school, armed with a speed scanner and an alarming amount of yoghurt.
Regulus isn’t just dramatic; he’s relentless. Arrest records, protest banners, and righteous fury come standard. James is fascinated before he understands why. Between dairy-based vigilantism and a near-brawl with the police, admiration turns into something warmer—and far more confusing.
James has never questioned himself like this before. Regulus has never let himself hope for something soft. One badly handled conversation, a tearful retreat, and a reckless sprint later, both boys are forced to confront what’s been obvious to everyone else all along.
Sometimes revolutions are loud. Sometimes they’re just two boys figuring out how to hold hands.

Summary
After weeks of begging, Regulus is finally given permission to ride his brother’s motorcycle. Nobody could have expected how the drive would end. Terrified of his brother’s reaction to his destroyed motorbike, Regulus hardly notices his own grave injuries.
Luckily for Regulus, a handsome stranger is there to help him. If only he could breathe through the fear long enough to enjoy it. But maybe not everything is hopeless.
[or, Regulus gets hurt but is more scared of his brother realising he broke his bike, Sirius is protective, and James is just happy to help]

Summary
In Regulus’s defense, he doesn’t mean to turn James Potter into a vampire.
His plans are much simpler than that. He only intends to abduct the boy who has led his brother astray, have some fun torturing him for a week or two, kill him, then dump the body on Sirius’s doorstep. Maybe carve ‘from RAB, with love’ on his chest for dramatic effect.
See? A nice, straightforward plan.
Or
Regulus Black’s immortal life is derailed by one James Potter.

Summary
"And then, throwing caution to the wind, he slowly lowered himself back completely, resting his body on the bed, before arching his back and biting his finger, as if to stop himself from making a noise.
He held the pose for a moment, expecting some direction, or the click of the camera, but he heard nothing. So he looked up, his eyes meeting the hazel ones he’d admired earlier.
And there James was, his mouth a bit agape, staring at him both through the lens of the camera and over it, looking like he’d been hit over the head with a bowling ball."

James is a photographer in need of a model.
It just so happens that Regulus is a model.
And there are LOTs of ways that one can take a picture.(Now a Podfic!)

Summary
When Regulus was a child, he thought he could hear the walls breathe—hear them speak; wet croaks of sick lungs, inhaling, exhaling, rattling like coins in the washing machine. He saw the blackened lungs of his father when he closed his eyes. He heard chatter from the portraits, a line of ancestors, all ghastly faces and stern jaws and thick crosses at their necks. He thought it was them who spewed dark, hateful words, in the tone of his mother.
It was never the walls; it was never the paintings.
