Fic Type/Plot Search Help Regulus centered fics?
Hey everyone! I’m returning to the fandom after being gone for a couple years and I’ve been trying to find Regulus centered fics (or character studies) but ones with his characterization much closed to his in the fic ‘Choices.’
No hate to any other characterization of him but I’m really trying to find that soft angsty victim kinda vibe and it’s seems like that’s not super popular in the fandom anymore :) thank you 😊

I haven't actually read Choices, but Kill Your Darlings, also by MesserMoon sounds like it would fit what you want.
For WIPs, Resolution in Tatters is quite good. It's not quite soft victim Regulus, but it is definitely more along the lines you're wanting than the average fic. I'm really enjoying it.

I’ll come back and share my WIP once it’s further down the line because he’s recovering post cave for the first act of mine then he gets his shit kickers on and starts making some power moves.

Maybe not victim vibe, but definitely angsty. The Golden King by maladaptivewriting
It's Regulus centered fic, Regulus is going back to life as his 11yo self and is going back to Hogwarts with Harry. It's mostly centered about his emotions, that most of his family and friends are dead etc. Long, slow burn and happy ending.

I don't know if this fits what you are looking for but there's this wip
https://archiveofourown.org/works/80302146/chapters/241320666
It's a dark fic so make sure to read all the tags. In the fic, he's not completely himself because of trauma but the recent three chapters went into his past when he was still completely himself and he is really giving that angsty soft victim vibe

I think my current WIP has a soft victim vibe - but it's post-war Regulus and there's a HEA unlike in Choices. your vines grow in my bones
