Summary
Rescued by Remus and Sirius from the dangers of the Crystal Cave, Regulus goes into hiding, viciously hunted by former acquaintances and relatives as a turncoat that gave away the Dark Lord's greatest secret. As it is, he's mostly trying not to die or go barking mad living with his temperamental brother and his werewolf boyfriend as they search for an artifact that might turn the tide of the war.

Summary
Sirius Black is eleven years old and all he knows is what his mother tells him. He knows he is going to Hogwarts. He knows he is pureblood and should despise anyone who isn't pureblood. He knows he will be placed into Slytherin and make the Black family proud. Sirius doesn't know why all of this is true, but he has no reason to believe differently. Not until he wanders into a Magical Menagerie and sees the boy in the cage and wants to be brave.
Remus has only ever known the cage. Since he can remember his world has been made of four walls of bars, pain, and a dingy sky above. He doesn't know why his life is like this, just that it is. He's never had anyone look at him kindly until the boy with the grey eyes and dark hair peers into his cage and Remus feels hope.

Summary
When his house elf Kreacher tells him about the haunting events that he was forced to endure in a mysterious cave, Regulus Black realises the Dark Lord's secret and decides that he can no longer support such a monster. To his own surprise, he finds himself seeking out none other than Albus Dumbledore.
But when Regulus is asked to become a spy for the Order of the Phoenix and reunite with his brother Sirius - and when it begins to dawn on him that there may be more than just one Horcrux to contend with - his life will change more than he could possibly imagine...In this story, Regulus not only survives his experience in the cave, but essentially takes Snape's place in the narrative. His survival causes the Horcrux hunt to start over ten years earlier than it does in canon, with Regulus, Remus, Sirius, Dumbledore (and some special surprise characters...) at the forefront.

Summary
In December 1977, Regulus Black did something brave. He ran.
With nothing but a wand he couldn’t use, a bag of money, and a desperate hope for survival, Regulus escaped into the muggle world mere days before his Death Eater initiation.
Against all odds, he’s taken in by three muggle artists who live loudly and love fiercely. Through them, Regulus discovers acting. And he’s good at it. Too good.
***
Six years later, Sirius and James walk into a London cinema and see Regulus’s face, six feet tall, staring back at them from the screen.

Summary
In 1967, Regulus Black loses a game of hide-and-seek.
In 1979, he is dragged, alive, from the underground lake.
In 1980, he turns reluctant spy for the Order.
These events are not connected.
But there’s a strange thread weaving through Regulus’s life, a splitting seam in the tapestry of his memories, a bogeyman that shadows his steps, and he can’t quite shake the feeling that he's missed something essential...
