This fanfic is based on a marauders headcanon in which James Potter and Regulus Black keep bumping into each other. James mistakes him for Sirius every time, Regulus has always the same response: "Sorry, it's just me." Full of jegulus, wofstar and some jily, this story's mystery is a tricky question. Why does Regulus apologize for not being his brother? Will James Potter ever find out? Will we ever find out? I am @fanfictionsandmore on tiktok.
