Summary
James Potter often lamented his soulmate mark. His best friends had the perfect marks, resulting in a picture perfect romance. It wasn't as if he intended to insult his soulmate, but the words inked upon his collarbone did not inspire confidence that their first meeting would go well.
But, in all honesty, it's not James' fault that his soulmate is so tetchy about being called short.

Summary
In December 1977, Regulus Black did something brave. He ran.
With nothing but a wand he couldn’t use, a bag of money, and a desperate hope for survival, Regulus escaped into the muggle world mere days before his Death Eater initiation.
Against all odds, he’s taken in by three muggle artists who live loudly and love fiercely. Through them, Regulus discovers acting. And he’s good at it. Too good.
***
Six years later, Sirius and James walk into a London cinema and see Regulus’s face, six feet tall, staring back at them from the screen.

Summary
Dazai Osamu has been in a coma for exactly one year, seven months, and twenty-two days. But Death still refuses to take him.
Trapped in the space between worlds and unable to die, Dazai waits, killing what precious time he may have left and hoping—praying—that his family will pull the plug and move on. He doesn't expect someone to move into his old apartment instead.
Nakahara Chuuya, two-time Grammy awards winner, and freshly unemployed pessimist, has never believed in fate, much less the supernatural. But the lively—if a bit annoying—ghost of his apartment's previous tenant, might just change everything.

Summary
Regulus Black is suspicious of his brother and his brother’s friends. There is something they’re hiding and he’s going to find out what it is.
Which he does. Somehow, this also leads to him earning a new identity, a new nickname, and the boy of his dreams.
[or, Regulus is a smart cookie, James is a smitten fool with a honey obsession, Sirius is confused, and Remus is sick of being beaten up by that upstart badger.]

Summary
“I know what it’s like,” Steph said, “not wanting to go home.”
“He does not,” Damian said falteringly, “hurt me. I am safe. I just…” A long pause. “Do not want to.”
He had never sounded more like a child, and Steph thought he knew it too, the way he re-focused on the streets, like if he glared hard enough he could manifest criminal activity.
Steph stared at him for a minute longer. “I’m heading back to my dorm,” she said.
Damian, still sitting on the ground curled up, looked so small. Finally, he said, “I shall… permit you to offer me shelter.”
Steph’s eyebrows flew up. “You shall permit me. Jesus.”
