regulus black is one of those motherfuckers who saves contacts with full names with like. capital letters. like. Sirius Black and Bartemius Crouch Jnr. the only person who gets a special contact name is pandora and it's literally just. Panda. you'd think he has absolutely no personality when you look at his contact list ...
Marlene: You’re going to need to socialize.
Lily: What? No, I don't wanna do that.
Mary: You're going to have a great time, you might meet some new people.
Lily, burying her face in her book: No, no, no, no!
I needed to represent this moment because I think we don’t talk enough about how heartbreaking this night was for Lupin.
That night, the wounds of the war reopened. His world crumbled at his feet, and everything he believed to be true turned out to be a lie. For the first time in 12 years, he could see everything with clarity… and that clarity didn’t bring peace, only pain. He started thinking about how this would change his world entirely. He felt like *he* was the traitor—for not trusting his heart sooner.
For years, he lived with guilt, loss, and isolation, thinking he had already endured the worst. But learning the truth pulled the ground from under him. He didn’t just lose James, Lily, Peter and Sirius—he lost his trust in himself. And now, seeing it all clearly, he’s left with nothing but regret and the quiet ache of betrayal—toward his friends, and toward his own soul.
And this is all my heart and thoughts into this piece, love you 💗🫂 hope you like it ✨
Thinking about Regulus talking James's ear off about things he enjoys (but only in private cause he has a reputation to uphold) and James being silent only when he's with Regulus (he too has his reputation to uphold) and actually listening... Reggie is happy cause someone is listening to him for once in his life, and James is happy cause he doesn't have to be 'the happy person' for once.
James Potter walking around Hogwarts encounters a black kitty. Calls him handsome, pets him, and takes many pictures, baby-talking to him like normal people do when they see a cat.
Regulus Black afterwards, gay panicking in his dorm. Because someone called him handsome. James Potter called him handsome.
James in his room just talking about a cute kitty he found on the grounds, completely oblivious.

my favorite version of "sirius finding out about jegulus" is when sirius is worried james (who he views as the straightest person on earth) sees regulus as a girl only to find out that james affirms regulus's identity more than anyone. especially if it involves james and sirius rescuing regulus from grimmauld, and especially especially if this rescue involves sirius and james seeing regulus in a ballgown. what can i say, i have very specific tastes
Remus and Regulus watching true crime documentaries and their boyfriends sat next to them terrified
"that didnt happen in canon" and canon didnt happen at all, what is your point
Remus will be like “This is Sirius, He’s my girlfriend” and Sirius would swoon
💫 Regret 💫
Remus had been angry at Sirius for far to long now. There was always something that got in the middle when he wanted to forgive him.
First it was the thought that it had not been long enough and he deserved to drown in his own guilt. Because Remus could've killed Snape. Not just Snape, but James too. And that was too much to just forget. So he spent a week without speaking to him.
Then was the realization that Sirius might betray him like that again. And he couldn't accept that. So, another week without talking.
After two weeks of hating Sirius he considered it. He really did. But then he saw him laugh with James, like nothing had happened, and decided to hate him for yet another week (without noticing that Sirius hated himself for feeling happy, when thought he should be feeling awful all the time)
And then, after three weeks, here he was. In his bed after everyone had gone to sleep, thinking. Thinking how the love of his life has just a few steps away and regretting every single minute he was not with him.
The realization that Sirius never ment to hurt him, that it was a mistake, and that he spent the last three weeks hating him struck Remus so suddenly, that he lost his breath.
He got up and walked straight to the bed next to his and stopped. He knew Sirius was awake. He had hear him sob a bit, like he usually did before to sleep these days.
He opened the red curtains and whispered "Sirius?"
When the other boy saw him he answered with the only thing that he had said to Remus since the prank "I'm sorry".
The guilt in his grey eyes broke moony's heart. He got in, and hugged him, and kissed him.
They spent a long time whispering "I'm sorry"s and "it's okay" "I love you" until they fell asleep, arms wrapped around each other.
And just like that, they were okay again. What had happened in the last few weeks would always be a hard topic, but it was nothing compared to how much they loved the other. So, so much.
