When it all began, James Potter saw the world in absolutes: light and dark, life and death, and good and evil. For him, being an FBI agent meant being the unequivocal hero, saving lives without question. Then he was assigned to Regulus Black, the epitome of moral ambiguity. 
	As Regulus navigates the dangerous world of crime and corruption, he grapples with his own moral compass, struggling to find the true meaning of the oath he swore to uphold. Will he be able to find the good in the world, or will he be consumed by the darkness he desires to combat?

	Or the one where James Potter picks between love and the law.

LONG FIC // COMPLETE Fifth Year has rolled around for the Marauders at Hogwarts. However, this year is a bit different because a certain Marauder; James Potter, has found himself in quite the puzzle You see, James is stuck between Lily Evans, who he thought was the only one for him, and a certain dark haired Slytherin boy, one he never thought he would ever have anything to do with given that this particular Slytherin is a relative of his best friend. See this Slytherin is none other than Fourth Year Regulus Black. James had never seen anything in Regulus before but this year is different. This year Regulus is...attractive. Regulus, however, is not quite the same, see he does have feelings for James, he has done since he started Hogwarts but he had made peace with the fact that he would never compare to Lily Evans. How will this story of theirs pan out in the end?

Let's rewind... It's 1976 and Regulus is returning for his fifth year at Hogwarts. With one of the worst summers of his life behind him, he's slightly glad to be back at the castle. Regulus is looking forward to a relaxing year spent focusing on his studies and lounging in the library. Only, Regulus' plans are derailed after runs into (quite literally) the one and only James Potter. It seems passing the year is the least of Regulus' problems- with the dark lord's influence growing into his inner circle, new blossoming feelings for his brother's best friend who he should hate, and a prank that goes too far. Regulus is in for a bumpy ride.

For as long as Remus can remember he's had a hard life. Constant monthly mutilations of his skin, a absent father, and the trepidation of his blush inducing crush on Anastasia Fox. Anastasia Fox, who flirts with everyone, has matching fainter scars, and is completely oblivious to Remus' crush. So oblivious she thinks he finds her annoying beyond degree. - "You don't know?" Lily was faint almost silent as she asked the boys. "Know what?" Remus asked now concerned by the ginger serious tone and grave expression. Anastasia had just run out of classroom on the topic of werewolf's. "Her whole family was attacked and killed by a werewolf. She was the only survivor" "ᴬⁿᵈ ᵗʰᵒᵘᵍʰ ᴵ ᶜᵃⁿ'ᵗ ʳᵉᶜᵃˡˡ ʸᵒᵘʳ ᶠᵃᶜᵉ ᴵ ˢᵗⁱˡˡ ᵍᵒᵗ ˡᵒᵛᵉ ᶠᵒʳ ʸᵒᵘ ᴾᵃˢˢᵉᵈ ᵈᵒʷⁿ ˡⁱᵏᵉ ᶠᵒˡᵏ ˢᵒⁿᵍˢ ᴼᵘʳ ˡᵒᵛᵉ ˡᵃˢᵗˢ ˢᵒ ˡᵒⁿᵍ" UPDATES OFTEN (once or more a week) Started: JANUARY 3rd, 2023 Ended: Ongoing
