Summary
Regulus' life has been decisively better ever since he was accepted into his dream school - Glenalmond Academy. Excited for another academic year, to get away from the tiring life with his messed-up, abusive family, Regulus wants to pour all his attention into his studies, but there is one small thing, or should he say, one not-so-small someone getting in his way. His (traitor) older brother and his obnoxious, loud, annoying friends also attend Glenalmond:
Sirius Black - said traitor brother, who Regulus cannot bring himself to describe.
Remus Lupin - the least insufferable of his brother's crew, he wears cool sweaters, but has recently been getting awfully close to his brother for Regulus' liking.
Peter Pettegrew - the fourth wheel, who will do absolutely anything to impress the other three.
and
James Fleamont Potter - the most IRRITATING, SELF ABSORBED prick Regulus had ever had the displeasure of encountering, who he also just cannot bring himself to look away from.
