Summary
Regulus Black has been running for as long as he can remember—ever since he and his brother fled their oppressive family home at a young age, determined to make it on their own.
But the years have worn him down, and the weight of survival has turned his life into a blur of exhausting jobs, empty nights, and endless isolation. Now, Regulus drifts through life as a ghost, quietly working as a university library assistant and sneaking into Economics lectures, hoping that knowledge will offer him a way out of the past that still haunts him.
But when a certain professor hires him, Regulus meets his son James, his complete opposite, who craves to show him the beauty of connection.

Or:
A pretty angsty, but still fluffy story that simultaneously follows the past of Sirius and Reg running away and doing anything to survive, and the present, where Regulus is pretty much a cold son of a bitch and James is absolutely whipped and does the most heart-warming shit for him. Also ft. Fleamont being a paternal figure to Reg, which I adore :)

Summary
It’s been months since disaster struck inside the Black Family home—since everything fell apart.
Now, Regulus is on his way to, what he can confidently say is a “disaster in the making”; one, that even he believes won’t last. After the last several homes collapsing, he’s just about given up on finding, what his social worker likes to call “his forever home”.
But, at some point, he starts to believe, finding his “forever home” doesn’t quite exist. Can you even blame him?
With secrets in tow, he enters his most recent permanent placement—the Potters. Whilst he tries to navigate a new school, an unfamiliar family, and his guilt—Regulus struggles to keep his guard up. Can he trust this new family and the fragile connections he’s starting to form, or will the ghosts of his past ruin everything once again?
This is a Modern Marauders Era, High School, Foster Care AU.
