Summary

This is going to be written through Diary entries and Letters going from September of 1971- around December of 1979. All of it except for the letters will be written from Regulus's POV. I haven't fully decided how everything is going to go in terms of relationships so tags will be updated as I go along. There will be a ridiculous number of chapters that will be rather short so bear with me if it ends up being hundreds of chapters that are only like three hundred words long. Change of update schedule I'm now shooting for every other day.

Reggie,

Thank fucking merlin you’re okay. I had sent so many letters and just assumed that you were ill or worse and unable to respond.

I’m glad that one of us has a brain and it able to think to look at the possibilities in terms of what may be happening, I suppose you were able to figure out that I was okay considering the fact that I was at school and not in the hellhole that you are at.

I don’t know what else to say, but I am so happy that you have figured out a way for us to communicate with one another. I must say that I am rather shocked that you were able to get Narcissa to not tell Druella about all of this, she has always liked you better than me.

I must admit that my worry of you has been affecting my school work as well as James, Remus, and Peter becoming quite irritating with my near constant blabber discussing what could possibly be wrong with you. Then again I must remind myself that they don’t know the extent of the horrors that occur in the awful house in which you are stuck.

I love you more than anything Reg, please let me know if anything happens to you. For now I suppose we can continue exchanging letters via Narcissa since that appears to be working. Once again I love and miss you.

-Sirius
