Remus: *drinks tea and immediately burns his tongue*

Sirius: Do you need me to kiss it better? Because I will.

Remus: Wow. James and Sirius and being really quiet today.

Regulus: It’s very pleasant.

Remus:

Regulus:

Remus: We should check on them.

Regulus: Immediately.

regulus wanted to be james. to have sirius' undivided attention like that, to have such a codependent relationship which he could trust to hold. to be carefree and laugh with an abundance of friends like james potter the popular, attractive quidditch king did.

james wanted to be sirius. obviously, not literally - he appreciated his family being as loving as they were and wouldn't want for a second to be in an abusive household like him but... he wanted a little brother. he wanted someone who could actually care about him and take away some of his loneliness. but more than anything he wanted to be loved unconditionally in the way remus and sirius did.

but, arguably the saddest, sirius wanted to be regulus. to have their mother actually love him, or care about him to some extent. to be in slytherin and maybe have people tolerate him more as a black. to just generally have kept to himself more, as regulus did, would have meant so many of sirius' mistakes and regrets never even happened.

so yeah.

regulus wanted to be james. james wanted to be sirius. and sirius wanted to be regulus. of course, each boy loved the other, whom he envied. deeply. but maybe it was tainted with a strong sense of jealousy.

Rip Sirius Black, you would've loved saying "that's so homophobic" every time you got detention

wolfstar are definitely the kind of couple to go grocery shopping where remus is trying so hard to just stick to their grocery list, while sirius is throwing in anything and everything that looks even remotely interesting. remus tries, but can’t even tell him no because sirius is so genuinely excited and adorable

You should write the most niche, indulgent fiction that appeals to you specifically, because it will be much more artistically authentic and valuable than corporate slop that has been focus tested to death to appeal to the widest audience possible.

Write for yourself and you will always be making authentic art that has an uncompromised vision, and you will gain an audience that appreciates that.

Sirius: fuck the Blacks

Remus: honey, you are a Black

Sirius: exactly, come here

Sirius: When I die, donate my entire body to science.

Sirius: Except my middle finger.

Sirius: Give that to my mother.
