    Summary

    contrapasso [con · tra · pas · so]
    the punishment of souls by a process either resembling or contrasting with the sin itself.

    The first time they meet is in Copenhagen.

    Regulus is on holiday, halfway to drunk off his ass in a dingy back alley pub. He’s never believed in love at first sight—in fact, he thinks it’s a rather ridiculous concept—but the first time he catches sight of him across alcohol-sticky floors and air thick with smoke, Regulus might be persuaded to change his mind.

    Summary

    Regulus Black never wanted to fill his brother's shoes.
    All he wanted was to have a home.

    James Potter has never felt complete.
    All he wanted was to mend the hollow feeling in his chest.

    This is such a long story now.

    ------------------

    First thing's first: I ORIGINALLY WANTED THIS TO BE A ONE SHOT.
    Looking back I immediately knew the second I started writing that it would in fact- not be a one shot. Big surprise? No, not at all.

    Second: I wrote this for my best friend and I. We got sucked INTO Jegulus and Wolfstar. It's a rabbit hole we are never getting out of.
    JK Rowling owns all the HP characters mentioned :(
    But the characterization is all me :)

    I know this ship isn't for everyone-

    That being said, this fic does deal with:

    Drugs
    Alcohol
    Abuse
    Torture
    Depression
    Minimal internalized Homophobia
    Minimal External Homophobia

    There will be TW at the top of each chapter for ones containing hard subjects <3

    Summary

    The Blacks want to marry off their youngest child. He begs Sirius for help and tells him a secret: He is a man and would rather die than be forced to be anyone's wife.
    Panicked, Sirius arranges a marriage between his brother and his friend James Potter, knowing that Regulus can be the man he is in the English countryside on James' estate.

    James wants to ensure Regulus' happiness, even at the expense of putting his life on hold for a while.
    Regulus wants to ensure James doesn't fall into societal ruin because of him.
    Sirius wants to be loved.
    Barty must decide whether he wants to keep causing destruction or choose redemption.
    And Remus is just a very tired butler who watches James and Regulus dance around their actual feelings (literally).

    (Trans Reggie; set in the Victorian Age, 1890s. No horrible homophobia or transphobia depicted. Dysphoria is thematised.)

    Summary

    Complete <3

    "The need to protect Regulus from harm, from anything that would threaten him, has become a near obsession. James knows that he has a habit of single mindedness, latching on to things so tightly that they consume him. Of all of his unruly fixations, his protectiveness of Regulus has proven to be the worst."

    Trilogy of Marauders era/Hogwarts AU + after school (1975-1982), focused fully on James and Regulus POVs. Canon-divergent (adjacent if you squint), but the path to defeating Voldemort lies not in the prophecy but in Regulus' hands.

    Book 1 (1975): Chapters 1-32
    Book 2 (1976-1977): Chapters 33-72
    Book 3 (1978-1980 + epilogues 1982): Chapters 73-92

    Choices inspired - but I only write happy Jegulus endings, do with that what you will.

    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.
