    Summary

    Bruce knows this is how things will always go. No matter what he does, no matter how good he tries to be, no matter how safe he might feel for a few precious weeks, it will always come back to this.
    It's his fault, anyway. He should have known better than to make Superman so angry.

    Summary

    After Regulus reaches past his 'expiry age' according to pureblood society, and with no marital prospects left except for the opportunists looking to take advantage of the Black family's predicament, he is allowed to marry James on the condition that Regulus will conceive an heir no matter what it costs and that James will move in to live with him into Grimmauld Place.

    James follows him into the imperial Black family to protect him.

    Summary

    Sirius drug Regulus to the Potters' when he decided to leave. Quite against his will. In a different household, he has to attempt to adapt to the strangeness of these new people. On the bright side Barty has decided to be his supportive if stubborn self, and has practically invited himself to stay for the duration of Regulus' stay.
    As for James, he doesn't know why, but for some reason, Sirius seems...different. Perhaps it is because he can see the real relationship between the Black brothers, or maybe it is that he is actually getting to know Regulus, rather than getting to know him through what Sirius says about him...or maybe it was both, but seeing it brings a bad taste to his mouth, and a difference in how he sees his best friend.
    Remus doesn't know what to think...but recently seeing how Sirius talks and acts with his brother has left him questioning everything he knows, and there isn't a single soul he can tell...except maybe the person making him question what he knows about his boyfriend.
    Sirius is frustrated. He saved his brother from their parents and yet he is still being incredibly ungrateful. He really just doesn't know what to think or do about it, and it is the most frustrating thing.

    Summary

    Sirius is imagining a billion things - James, bleeding and hurt. Someone in their living room. Whatever terrible things there could possibly be, they all run through his head so quickly one after another it's almost all at once.

    What he does not expect…

    Is Regulus. Regulus, bleeding and hurt, heaving and gasping with hands shaking against James' chest and arms, laid sideways against his chest as if --

    As if it's familiar, really.

     

    _______

     

    Regulus shows up at the Potters' house bleeding and hurt, which reveals something about James' relationship with him to Sirius.

    Sirius has a hard time accepting many things, from Regulus being here to him and James being a thing.

    Horrible truths are discovered, and in the end, Sirius could never really let go of caring for Regulus, even when he tried so hard to.
