Summary
The calm before the storm.
Often, you don't realise you are experiencing the calm until the storm strikes. Only then, you become aware of how lucky you have been.
James realises, when the storm rolls in, that his whole life has been ‘the calm’. Now, he has to navigate a weather he has never sailed. James is alone in a raging ocean and no one can save him.
Will he be able to come out on the other side or is what he believes to be the storm really just the beginning of a long and gruling journey?
OR: James is not okay. But he has to be.

I read an amazing fic by the lovely @Mae01 and I had to write my own!
This work is inspired both by the fic “Now It’s 6:15 And You’re On Your Knees” and the song “Sara” by We Three. I would totally recommend listening to that song while reading this! It will definitely help set the mood :)

Summary
There's always that one friend that helps everyone through everything but doesn't tell other's when they are struggling and when they need help. James Potter is that friend. James Potter, the mother hen and overprotective friend, is the friend that goes through everything on his own so his friends will have someone they can always go to for help.
"For as long as he could remember, James always made sure to be strong for the people around him; the people who needed someone to be strong for them. James couldn’t help his friends if they saw him as weak or already burdened, right?"

Summary
James is struggling, and noone realises. His parents are emotionally abusive, but james thinks can he really blame them; he feels like such a 'bad' son that he knows why his parents treat him like they do.
Running away is the only viable option. He will die if he goes back to that house. Would they even care if he was gone? After all he is just a burden to them.

Summary
James was determined to be better. To do better.
He would get smarter, thinner, become the perfect friend and boyfriend. Then maybe he would feel less like there was a huge, gaping wound right where his heart was. Maybe he would feel less like there was an anvil constantly resting on his chest, getting heavier and heavier each day.
And maybe, just maybe, he would feel like less of a burden on everyone around him. Maybe if he kept going like this, he would feel like he had a right to steal precious resources like air and water and food away from people who actually needed them.
And well, James Potter was known for being a risk-taker.
He was more than happy to take his chances on that maybe.

Summary
The story of how James Potter lost everything, how his life began to fall apart, crumble and turn to dust.
Because James Potter has problems too, no matter how hard he tries to hide them and not show them, they are still there.
Life is too much for James and he needs help.
James was sensitive, emotional and delicate, when he felt he felt a lot, when he felt he felt hard.
He had a gentle heart and that was his biggest trait, but at some point his feelings became his nightmare.I am a child with an old soul. I see magic in everything, but at the same time, everything tires me because I feel everything so very deeply. ~ James Potter at some point

Summary
If someone asked James the names of his parents, without a moment's hesitation or thought, he would say "Euphemia and Fleamont Potter" except that it's not true... not entirely.
James was such a sunny boy. He was the sunshine of Hogwarts, and everyone knew this amazing golden boy.
James was always so cheerful and happy, no wonder, right? He must have had a happy childhood. The Potters must have been wonderful to him.
This boy, as a child, had the whole world in his little hands and giggled at every step, bursting with love. Deprived of so much love that his little heart couldn't comprehend it.
He had a happy childhood.
Except it's not true.
James' childhood, especially the early one, was filled with fear, pain, and loneliness until the day a nice lady with a warm smile came into his life and... and showed him magic and love.
Have you ever wondered why James was a mama's boy? Why did he always want to help others at all costs? Why did he love too much? Did you wonder why he understood Sirius so much? Why did the Potters only have one child, and why did they love him so much? Have you thought about it?

James Potter was just a person, he was always trying—he was fighting, fighting for a reality where the effort was enough.
James potter just wanted to compensate for his shortcomings, instead he tore everything apart.
Where James Potter burns, and the world burns with him.

James had always struggled with eating, but it was never a problem really. It honestly helped, now no one had to be embarrassed to be seen with him, especially not his boyfriend, Regulus. It’s a win-win situation, right?

Summary
And oh. Those words take Sirius apart further, the thread unravelling, leaving him a mess on the floor, tangles and knots—it’s so overwhelming Sirius can only grip Remus tighter, his hold bruising. Not on purpose. Of course James wouldn’t have told anyone on purpose, not allowed anyone to know, kept it locked up to not hurt anyone. A choked sound leaves Sirius, tears flowing steadily out. His James, his best friend, his, Sirius can’t breathe without him, the world would stop spinning, the stars would burn out, he can’t—a world without James was a world without warmth.

Summary
James Potter the resident Golden Boy, the one who seems to always wear his heart on his sleeve, not that he doesn't but he does tend to hide his struggles. Not only his struggles but also his newfound crush on a certain younger Slytherin who he accidentally seems to continue to run into.
Or
The one where James Potter can't seem to go anywhere without accidentally running into the stunning, brilliant and clearly emotionally closed of Evan Rosier. Not that he's complaining. A twist of fates brings the two of them into an unforeseen situation that might just work out for all parties involved in way that none of them ever could have foreseen.

Summary
"once I took your medication to know what its like,
and now I have to act like I can't read your mind."James Potter has been struggling. He'd never tell someone that, of course. But he is. When it starts to take over most aspects of his life, to the point where others notice, he realizes he should probably do something about it. He establishes a method of getting his feelings out without telling anyone, in the lovely world of journaling.
Regulus Black has been struggling. He used to talk about it with his older brother, until recently that's changed and he hasn't had that shoulder to cry on. He pushes through for a long time, until it becomes so difficult to pretend he's fine, he almost loses his name for being always calm and collected. To avoid this, he begins to write out his problems in private stories.
They each find themselves writing practically daily, until they accidentally each take a different identical notebook, from someone who they would never expect to write about such things.
Or for it to be so similar to their own.
