Sirius is quiet for a long time. Then, unexpectedly, he speaks. “Walburga used to read the myth of Icarus to me and Regulus when we were really young. I always thought it was amazing, even if he did die in the end. I bet while he was up there, flying, the rush was worth it.” He smiles faintly. “Regulus, though?” Sirius shakes his head. “It scared him. He could never understand why Icarus would have taken the risk and flown so close to the sun.” Something about that settles heavily between them. James looks back at the tapestry. At the name that has somehow returned from the dead. Sirius lets out a quiet breath. “Funny, isn't it?” He smiles, weakly. “That Regulus ended up making the same mistake?” James offers him a close-lipped smile. It doesn't reach his eyes. It's not funny at all. And they both know that. It doesn't matter, though. James is going to find Regulus. - [Or, the one where The Wizarding War has ended. Voldemort is dead. All is well. James Potter is a recently divorced Auror placed on a mysterious case following the reappearance of Regulus Black on the Black family tapestry.]
