James: *says something dumb*
Regulus: I swear to Merlin, you are so much like Sirius. Sometimes, I think im fucking my brother. Are you finally proud mother? Keeping up the family tradition.
James: I just wanted to know whether ice cream is a soup, not that you are the result of incest
*at Remus and Sirius' wedding *

Remus : I'm a were
Peter : *chokes on champagne*
Regulus :
Regulus : When did i become a part of this? I had a one bedroom apartment and solitude. I was happy
No matter how many times Evan repeats that Esther is nothing more than a cover-up, a hoax for his father and the rest of the prudish and stuck-up pureblood snobs to buy into, so as not to ask too many questions, Barty can’t even stand the sight of the leech hanging around with Evan.
OR a story on how Barty was jealous of Evan, while being a flirty, cheeky bastard, and had hot sex with him afterwards.

james: little does he know, im hard to get rid of
james potter is the fun dad.
regulus hates this. he wants to be fun too. but no, it’s james who harry runs too when he wants to laugh til he cries. it’s james who lets harry fly just a little higher than he should or buys him far too many toys when the toy chest is already overflowing. it’s james who harry goes to when he wants a sweet treat before dinner or to be swung upside down til his hair matches his fathers even more. james potter is the fun dad- not regulus.
but, what regulus takes far too long to see- is he is the safe dad. it’s regulus who harry’s little feet paddle over to when he scrapes his knee or bumps his head. it’s regulus who rocks and sings harry a lullaby before bed. it’s regulus side of the bed young harry crawls into after a night terror and he’s too frightened to sleep alone. oh yes- james potter is the fun dad, but regulus is the safe dad.
not to say harry has no fun with regulus or doesn’t feel safe with james. harry knows his dads love and adore him and both do that perfectly. but sometimes he just needs to have a laugh with james, or a cry with regulus.
and that’s okay.
do you ever think about how james potter would definitely be the type of person to use the words without knowing their meaning, just like assuming he understands them correctly?
it would literally go like this:
james: reg, you’re so sweet! wanna be my sugar baby?
regulus: *chokes on water*
tbf tho, james is rich enough to not back down once he knows the real meaning, lmao
this is like actually me and my older brother. i’m reg and he’s sirius...
Sirius: *moves to hug Regulus*
Regulus: *steps aside*
Sirius: "Why did you move?"
Regulus: "I thought you were going to attack me."
Sirius: "I was going to hug you."
Regulus: "Why would you hug me?"
Sirius: "WHY WOULD I ATTACK YOU?!"
