Blackpool by The Divine Comedian reviews
COMPLETE. When Regulus is five, he nearly drowns in the sea off Blackpool. When Regulus is eleven, his brother befriends a ghost. It's not until Regulus is eighteen and ready to die that the Black family's darkest secret finally unravels. It might, perhaps, change everything. (A coming-of-age story with mind magic, star charting, pink petit-fours, two diaries, and a ghost.)

Inhibitions by E4mj reviews
Harry with no inhibitions could mean a lot of things get done quickly. Snape's POV of a potions accident with interesting effects. A lot of things are left unexplained: It is JUST a ficlet.
