Summary
Sometimes, Rin is certain she’s the unluckiest person in the world.
She is getting married. Because some god out there decided that making her an orphaned peasant girl just wasn't enough, no, she also just has to be the last living Speerly.
She won’t let her husband have a moment of peace in this life if she’s forced to live hers with him, for as long as they’re both alive. She will be his biggest fucking nightmare.
~~~~~~
Sometimes, Nezha is certain he’s the unluckiest person in the world.
He is getting married. Because what Emperor Riga says goes, and Emperor Riga says Nezha is to marry the last living Speerly to strengthen their bloodline.
In one fell swoop, his chance to choose his eventual wife, his love, is gone, replaced by a foul-mouthed, violent creature he can only describe as a nightmare sent to haunt him for every single thing he’d ever done wrong in his life.

The Twists of Fate by drafts_n_characters

Summary
Fang Runin is a a 21 year old war-orphan who'd never been able to escape the grasp of her foster mother. In this world, Yin Vaisra had decisively conquered the Nikan Empire years before the events of the novels, establishing a monarchy with him at the helm. After Emperor Vaisra prevented women from attending Sinegard, Rin was left with no choice but to look for another way to escape arranged marriage at the age of 14.
Finding her savior in Tutor Feyrik, she'd been able to make a name for herself as a fighter and to keep her foster mother happy (and rich) enough to keep Rin around.
But everything is about to change as Emperor Vaisra announces The Selection for his now heir to the throne, Yin Nezha. It's an opportunity for women to compete for the prince's hand from across the empire, but Rin vehemently opposes the whole idea.
As fate would have it, she gets thrown into that same world she tried to avoid, her days now filled with civil unrest, secrecy, a strange growing power, and growing feelings for a certain infuriating prince.

Summary
"Regulus Black is never going to catch a break.
He wants to bury his face in his hands and groan into them. The only reason he restrains himself from doing so is that the other figure skaters have started glancing over at him—probably wondering why the hell he’s talking to a hockey player. Regulus would very much like to know too.
Oblivious to everything else, James raises an eyebrow towards Regulus. 'I guess we’ll be seeing each other around, then?'
Seriously, how has James still not gotten the goddamn hint."
❅ ❅ ❅
When Sirius moves out, Regulus Black thinks that maybe James Potter will finally be out of his life too.
Good. Competition season is coming up, and it'll be his first year at the junior level. As the upcoming skating star of the Black family, Regulus can't afford to lose–and the absolute last thing he needs is a hockey player to mess everything up for him. All he needs is for James to stay out of his way, and he'll be good as gold.
James doesn't stay out of his way. And Regulus has a long way to go before he can even think about bearing a medal around his neck.

Summary
Following the Marauders from 1975 to the end of the second wizarding war.
Canon-compliant until 1979, when Regulus survives the cave, creating a ripple effect of changes and saving the lives of some of those who would have otherwise died. Somewhat follows the canon story from this point on, including the addition of those who lived. Earlier years are heavily influenced by ATYD, of course.
