R. A. B. has a precioussss; (

LOG: Regulus || tl;dr?
You can read about Regulus's inner-monologue here, if you're interested in his actual thoughts about the meeting, the attendees, and the situation.

In summary, Regulus has more-than-likely been very quiet throughout the meeting, doing much of the listening, and much of the quiet-arrogance-glaring that his dear father would be absolutely proud of. He is likely to keep to himself, speaking when spoken to, and answering questions only if prompted by Dumbledore (especially about the last part of the meeting / about the possession of the horcrux. Feel free to have your characters inquire! -- and hit a brick wall.) Clearly, he's not there to make friends. He would also have no qualms with stating, very bluntly, that he has the Mark; just so that everyone achieves general consensus on that little fact. Good? Good, now shut up about it!

Please note, however, that his general demeanour is likely to be much colder, and more polite than over the journals (not that he would identify himself openly as R.A.B., mind) -- which may be somewhat surprising. Your characters are unlikely to be subject to friendly snark -- or a smile. Is he on his guard? Oh yes, and it's apparent.

► Sirius, you get most of his attention, although he's trying very hard not to let it show. Naturally.

► James, Lily, Remus, Peter, ~~Severus, Minerva, etc~~ -- he recognizes you (and may seem a touch surprised, too). And whereas he is attempting to cast the Avada Kedavra with his gaze alone on Potter for a split moment, he will be surprisingly professional otherwise.

► To the Aurors/Hit Witches/Wizards: If your character is extremely observant, they will notice that Regulus is uneasy with having people ~~fondle~~ interact with the Locket, and that he would be relieved to have it back (and will promptly slip it around his neck, under his robes and out of sight). This would not be blatantly obvious, as it would almost be at the level of micro-emotions, but you're free to notice/comment upon it! Just putting it out there.

Regulus is likely to remain in hiding, at least from the Death Eaters. He will not go parading about that he is alive without a good reason, because he is not suicidal. But he is extremely bored, and extremely dissatisfied with the manner in which events are unfolding. Therefore, if Dumbledore has any specific requests from him, he would make it plain that he will hear them ~~and likely comply to them; this is implicit.~~

So, hm. Unless otherwise prompted, he is very likely to get himself a glass of water as an excuse to linger about for a few moments and listen on others' chitchat as best he can, then depart quite promptly. Yep.
