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
A small interaction between Regulus and Euphemia before his fifth year at Hogwarts alters the trajectory of his life. Asked to watch out for Regulus, James finds himself readily falling for him as they spend more time together. It can never be that simple though- the Black's expectations and dysfunction grasp onto the younger boy relentlessly, and the raging war outside the doors of Hogwarts moves closer to them every day.
Dealing with the hardships and traumas of their reality, the question remains: how far are they willing to go for one another?
Following the boys from their final years of Hogwarts into their roles during the First Wizarding War, this is a long fic exploring the depths of their devotion. It deals with sensitive topics so please be mindful of the tags; there is a comprehensive note at the start of the fic detailing warnings. Eventual happily ever after (it's a long ride).

Summary
When they were young, Sirius had always poked fun at Regulus' name for being a self-fulfilling prophecy. Naturally, Regulus strived to defy the odds of his namesake; but in a Gryffindor-esque, impulsive act of bravery, Regulus turned the tides of the Marauder's story. Sirius had been right, of course, and unbeknownst to any of them, their future now burns brighter than Regulus in the Leo constellation on a stary night.
Or, an alternate universe where Regulus makes a split-second decision to run away with Sirius and changes the course of everyone’s future.
