Summary
Regulus Black knows what his future holds. He will be a good son, a good Pureblood, and a good Slytherin. He will not stray from the path set out for him since birth.
The trouble begins with a bar of Fry’s Turkish Delight—or maybe it begins with a Charms competition, a stick-and-poke in the Prefects’ bathroom, and a Hufflepuff with strange magic.
Or: Pandora Lovegood was born Pandora Trelawney. When her inconvenient magical gift puts her squarely in Regulus Black's path, an unlikely friendship blossoms. The consequences echo past their final year at Hogwarts, follow them to opposite sides of the battlefield, and change the course of the First Wizarding War for the better.

Summary
Peter loves his friends. Which is why he had to kill them. And now, he's doing- well. Alright. Things didn't turn out exactly as he'd anticipated, but he's making it work. Living his life. As a rat. Mostly trying not to think about things.
Fine. Things could be better.
But he hadn't thought they'd get worse- which is exactly what happens when, three years after James died, he's come back. And for some godforsaken reason, he's decided to make that Peter's problem. (Okay, okay- Peter gets it. He did kill him.) Peter is sure that James is going to turn him in, ruin his life the same as Peter had ruined the Marauders.
But this is James. And he doesn't do any of that.
What was Peter expecting, really?
(Features: A lot of fighting, a lot of forgiveness, and a splash of necromancy. Alright, you got me- rather a lot of necromancy. But come on- we can't just have the ghost of Christmas James show up. Haven't you seen 'A Muppet's Christmas Carol'? There needs to be at least two more ghosts.)

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...

Summary
"Look, the whole of London's cracking up," she told him. "I'm finding it hard enough to work as it is without my commute being screwed up by the buses going on strike, and half my books turning into birds. That angel is wrecking everything, but in particular, my life - and you're too busy hating yourself to open your eyes and deal with it. I'm telling you, it has to stop."
"Is that all still happening?" Crowley said vaguely. "But I found him."
"Oh my God, you can tell you don't commute," Anathema said. "The buses went on strike, Mr. Crowley."
"That's perfectly normal for London. You'll learn."
"You're not listening! Not the drivers, the buses. They're organising - meeting in secret, holding little candlelight vigils. Nobody else really knows what's going on - everyone's just assuming it's, like, general TfL incompetence or something - but it's only a matter of time. So what are you going to do about it?"
"Er... have they submitted a list of their demands?" Crowley said helplessly.
