Summary
Something sinister stirs in Hogwarts!
When magical creatures and students at the school are hit with a debilitating blood curse, Minerva McGonagall approaches the Ministry for help.
Star Auror Harry Potter seems to be the obvious choice to go undercover—as DADA Professor, naturally. He’s going to need the help of the Ministry’s foremost expert in blood magic to get to the bottom of the mystery, though, and he’s not entirely convinced that going back to Hogwarts with Draco Malfoy is a good idea.
Things are complicated between them—what’s new?—but they know they have to learn to work together (and keep their hands off each other in the corridors) in order to solve this case. Luckily for them, Hogwarts itself wants to lend a hand.
A tale of love, lessons, and learning to really live.

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 Muggle AU in which a ballet dancer and a rugby player call it “casual” while accidentally developing feelings, catastrophically failing at communication, and pretending it’s all totally fine.
----
“Why the hell are you here ruining my lunch, James?”
James rubbed a hand over the back of his neck, trying to find words that didn’t sound completely insane.
He failed.
“I... don’t think you should be sleeping with Evan anymore.”
Regulus stared at him like he’d just proposed murdering the Queen.
(...)
“If you need a fuck buddy for, you know, stress relief and stuff… You could just use me.”
(...)
“Come again?”
“If the position’s open,” James said, attempting a grin, “I’m applying.”----
