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
No one, it turns out, really knows one another.
(OR: all it takes is a summer-long holiday in Italy, James Potter's teetering mental stability, a secret relationship, friends with benefits, Marlene’s secret, and enough stupidity and insecurity to go around for everything to come crashing down around them.)

Summary
“Could I get a name for the order?” Marlene asked.
“Serious,” the man replied. “Like the star,” he clarified, and Remus mentally scratched out 'Serious' and rewrote 'Sirius' in his head.
“The… star?” Marlene asked, her pen hovering over the cup as she hesitated.
“S-I-R-I-U-S,” Remus said. He stocked croissants into the display case, not looking up. “The Dog Star,” he added, “brightest star in the sky, actually. Visible from both hemispheres.” When he looked over, the man– Sirius– seemed surprised, his eyebrows raised as Remus spoke, and when Remus finished, he blinked a few times before smiling lopsidedly.
“Er– yeah,” he breathed a laugh. “That.” There was a baby on his hip. Somehow, it had taken Remus a second glance to notice that.

Or, Remus works as a barista and Sirius comes in every morning with the world's cutest baby, and man, these two just wrote the book on mutual pining, huh?

Summary
After Walburga and Orion’s sudden and mysterious death, Sirius and Regulus inherit the family’s legacy - their titles, riches, estates. Sirius becomes the head of the house of Black, with Regulus by his side. Discontent, Bellatrix and other family members pay James and Remus to go undercover, seducing the Black Brothers to get a confession out of them regarding their parent's deaths, suspecting that there is more to the story than meets the eye. However, James and Remus find themselves in the most unusual of situations upon meeting the beautiful and elusive brothers, who make them question the true nature of Walburga and Orion's deaths, and eventually, their own sanity.

Or:
A very twisted story set in the 1970's, in which the Black Brothers inherit the Black Estate, find out about James and Remus' plans to investigate them, and play along for fun because they're chaotic and very, very morally questionable. The fic includes depictions of religious guilt, imagery, murder, and a very messed up dynamic between characters.
Please read all the tags! This story can get dark, but nothing is overly descriptive or intense - but still, TWs will be added on the notes of each chap!

Summary
There is something both thrilling and intimate about watching someone when they think no one is around, seeing how they behave in the vacuum of other people’s perception.
Regulus momentarily sheds his poise when he wrestles with the ancient lock, tote bags precariously balanced on his shoulders and neat curls just beginning to frizz and frazzle in the humidity. He mutters something James is too far away to hear, but it is most certainly a curse.
It’s oddly endearing.
Or
James Potter offers to check on his best friend’s long-missing brother and gets a little too invested.
