#regulus black
this was so regulus black of him! like come onnn!!
my marauders fancast (because this is so fun)
james potter x aaron taylor johnson
i know that this is a pretty basic one but i absolutely adore aaron taylor-johnson and think he’s incredibly adorable and handsome. plus if you ever want to write him as surviving there’s source material (because he gets even more sexy and handsome as he gets older)
regulus black x timothee chalamet
timothee is adorable and perfect for reggie (even though the person that i pick for sirius is younger than him). these are the only two popular fancast for these characters so good luck for the rest and i hope you can see my vision i guess
sirius black x deaken bluman
before i say anything just look at the hair. look at the material. plus he can give off rich bitch vibes and chaotic rule breaker (he is only one month younger than timothee though so i won’t really mind it i guess). plus the dude is drop dead gorgeous. come on now! (sn, i just looked it up and he’s actually only six days younger than timothee. six!)
remus lupin x matt hitt
okay ik ik i truly was considering andrew garfield and i would’ve used him but i honestly wanted a people that looked much younger (don’t bring up aaron okay). although both are in their thirties now i think matt encapsulated that remus john lupin energy that we all know and love. plus i’m this picture we can say he’s wearing sirius’ jacket. and matt is the oldest out of the six and remus definitely has an aged look.
peter pettigrew x lucas hedges
i loved lucas in boy erased and ben is back. i was contemplating fionn oshea but i thought that lucas just exudes that quiet but smart and timid friend energy. plus i’d love to hug lucas (although i would never let peter touch me).
lily evans x nora mac
before i begin plus sized lily! idc what you have to say and i don’t want to hear any of your fatphobia. nora just seems like the person that would give the best hugs and lils is obviously an amazing hugger. she seems like she also has the best snacks and could just give you endless love (especially for those like remus). also her hair is gorgeous. so yeah

Random Pictures From My Camera Roll as the Marauders Era Characters
remus and lily watching james, sirius and peter do absolutely ridiculous and crazy things. remus: i quit
sirius the minute anyone touches him because DRAMA KING
james realizing he’s in love with regulus
regulus realizing he’s in love with james
hear me out but i think paper rings would be the perfect song for james and regulus
the moon is high, like your friends were the night that we first met
now i guess you could say that it’s not the night that they first met but it’s probably the night they realized they had feelings for each other. i feel like james, sirius, remus and peter get high on their free time so that lyrics would definitely make sense. plus more interpretation… moony - the moon
went home and tried to stalk you on the internet
this definitely is about reggie. i definitely think that he’d probably try to learn everything about james even though he pretends not to be madly in love with him
now i’ve read all of the books beside your bed
this one is kind of simple. regulus reads every book beside his bed (although they probably belong to remus).
Regulus loves indie, underground, alternative, artists and basically anyone that’s not mainstream. But… the minute that James (the biggest swiftie) plays anything from Taylor’s discography Regulus screams the lyrics with James.
‘What Is This?’ Part Two.

After 11 years of living there, someone knocked on your door
It was Albus Dumbledore.
*******************************************************
You were in noticeable shock and gasped.
'Fucking Hell’ You thought.
“Indeed Ms L/N” Dumbledore smiled.
“Don’t do that” you stated coldly.
“Ms L/N, I have an inquiry and would like to be let in.” He gave 'that’ look with his sparkling eyes.
Oh, but you knew that look all too well. It was the same look he gave you when you played a prank on Barty Crouch Jr. and he wanted information out of you.
“No. Say it now” you were not budging this time.
No one ever spoke to the old Professor that way and it was clear to see. He looked slightly alarmed but gathered his usual composure quickly.
“I want you for the Defence Against the Dark Arts Position and Hogwarts.” He still gave you his warm attitude.
You took several moments.
You had all this success and Fame… Why should you leave a relationship? The relationship in which for a fact you knew he was sleeping with other women… But your career, where most of your job was done because you did such a good job at your job… The Dog… That you were thinking of getting.
'Why am I staying?’ You questioned.
“September First I’ll start I suppose. And I want a big office none of those shitty corner offices… And I want a higher pay than the rest of the” you stated your wants clearly to the professor.
“Done and Done… Professor L/N” He smiled.
“Thank you… Sir” you shook his hand and quickly shut the door. With your back leaning against the closed door… For the first time in eleven years, you began crying. You mourned for the eleven years you spent without your boys. The life you could have had.
After a good half, an hour of crying you composed yourself.
It was August 30th 1995. Albus was a little late with the offer you had to say. But… A little part of you was excited. Life was slowly getting better.
Your bag had been packed for years now. That should have been the first sign to leave. But you were scared like always. You wrote a quick note to your boyfriend saying your goodbye and telling him how to sort all your affairs.
You left the apartment you have had for a decade. A decade of wasted useless memories… If you could even call them that.
The Leaky Cauldron is where you decided to reside. It was where you spent a lot of your teenage years with your ex-boyfriends.
Tom the owner recognised you immediately not for your fame but from when you were younger. It was a nice refresher.
Unfortunately the Jet Lag really got to you and you ended up sleeping for 36 hours. You were late for the grand feast at Hogwarts.
The feast started at 7:00 pm it was now 7:15 pm.
“Shit. Shit. Shit” you began quickly getting dressed and putting on your make-up with very useful enchantments.
You quickly grabbed your two suitcases and ran down the rickety old stairs.
“Bye Ms L/N” Tom the Owner gave you his famous welcoming smile.
“Nice seeing you Tom” you waved goodbye and quickly hopped into the fireplace and floo* away.
You arrived just outside the great hall where Filch was with his scrawny little cat.
'That Thing is still alive" You thought.
“Hey Filch” you gave him you cheeky grin.
“No, Not you it’s bad enough with the others” He snapped.
“Others?” You mumbled to yourself.
“Anyways, would you kindly take my luggage up to my room” You gave him a darling smile “and if you even try to open it will bite”
He grumbled and snatched the two cases off you.
You began making your way to the entranceway to the great hall when you heard a distant 'ouch’ from Filch. You chuckled to yourself knowing you still got it.
The doors were closed meaning you were going to have to make a dramatic entrance and not a quiet one like you hoped. You quickly took out your wand and swung the doors open with power.
The students and staff were greeted with an enormity of wind from the doors and you.
You made your way in boots clicking on the floor.
The hall was silent all eyes were on you.
Then there was a “HOLY FUCK THAT’S Y/N L/N THE AUROR” and the hall erupted into chatter.
Then you saw them. Remus, James and Sirius. Looking at you with mixed emotions of Shook, Anger and Sadness.
You greeted Dumbledore and he showed you your seat right beside Hagrid and… Remus.
’Fuck’
You promptly sat down not even acknowledging the werewolf beside you who was staring at you with all his might.
The chattering was still going on to which Dumbledore shouted 'SILENCE’.
Boom. The hall was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
“Now, Professor L/N is going to be the new Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher so I think we should give her a proper welcome”
The whole hall erupted into applause but you didn’t stand up. You were used to standing ovations this was nothing you were not really bothered.
The clapping quietened down and everyone went back to their meals.
Hagrid made light conversation with you and offered you food around five times but you could!’t eat you felt sick with them around.
They all took turns glaring daggers at you.
You just remained staring at your lap the whole time.
“Erm Y/N-” Remus’ soft voice started.
You quickly got up from your chair,
“I think I am going to retire for the night, Goodnight Professor Hagrid” he nodded to you with a concerned smile and you quickly got up and left the room.
*******************************************************
It was the next day and you started your first lesson with First Years. They were all scared and new so it was easy to get things done and it was a quiet class. Next was a set of Fifth Years in which you threatened maybe too harshly so they were quiet for the rest of the lesson.
Now it was third years.
They were all filing in and about to sit down.
“Don’t sit down” you said flatly.
“Assort yourself Alphabetically statting with A’s at the front”. It took about three minutes for everyone to get into their seats which took a bit of shouting from you to get them to move faster.
You then went through the role.
“Pansy Parkinson”. “ Here, Professor”
“Parvarti Patil” “Here”
“Harry…”
'What the actual Fuck… THEY PROCREATED’ Your mind was racing.
There it read 'Potter-Lupin-Black’. This was going to be shit.
“Harry Potter-Lupin-Black” you repeated stiffly.
“H-here Professor” “Don’t Stutter. It lets your opponents know you’re scared” you gave him 'the look’.
He gulped and looked down.
You got on with the role and class began.
“So, what defensive spells do you know?” You asked.
No one put their hand up.
“Did you learn anything in the past 2 years?” You snapped in and the students all jumped.
A girl with curly brown hair put her hand up.
“Yes?” You questioned.
“Eh s-stu-”
“Don’t stutter” you cut her off.
She quickly composed herself not looking you in the eye.
“Stupify,” she said more confidently.
“Name?”
“Hermione Granger,” she said quickly still refusing to look you in the eye.
“Next?” You questioned.
Then the one you knew to be Harry put up his hand. There was no questioning that he was James’ son, He looked almost identical… Except for the eyes. You have seen them somewhere but you couldn’t put your finger on it.
“Go”
“The disarming spell,” he said proudly.
“And it’s name?” You questioned.
“Expelliarmus”
“Okay, any others?” You quickly moved off from him.
No one out their hand up.
“Are you serious? Does anyone know anything? Merlin’s saggy balls. Who was your teacher?” You wondered how they knew absolutely nothing.
“Eh… Professor Lockhart” a girl told you.
“That dumbass? No wonder?” You rolled your eyes.
“I think expelliarmus works quite well” Harry said.
“What?” You asked him
“It does is a really good spell… Do we need much more?” The boy questioned pathetically.
“Oh I’m sorry”
“What?” He asked looking confused.
“I’m sorry. Why don’t you get up here and teach the class? You seem to know quite a lot about disarming spells Mr Potter-Lupin-Black. I didn’t mean to impose on your magical ability.” You were harsh but it was necessary.
“I eh- erm”
“What did I say about stuttering?” You snapped “It seems the great Harry Potter-Lupin-Black thinks one can get through life by simply snatching someone’s wand! Believe me Harry there are much worse ways someone can threaten you without a wand. Ways your mindless brain couldn’t even comprehend. Do you think I got where I am today by simply disarming someone Potter?” You were now leaning over the poor boy giving him daggers.
“No… And it’s Potter-Lupin-Black” he looked down shamefully.
“It’s Potter in this class. And don’t you dare correct me again.” The class was in terror and the boy was shaking.
“Give me your wand Potter” you held your hand out to take it from him.
’“But prof-” he started to whine.
“Looks like your precious disarming spell might come in handy Potter. Give me the fucking wand” He quickly put the wand in your hand and you placed it on your desk
“You shall not get this back until you write a list of every defensive spell you can find in your textbook and library and write them all down with what their purpose is and the motion used. All of you will do it and it should be on my desk, next class” The class collectively groaned.
“Class is dismissed for the day” you waved them off.
“But professor the bell has not rung yet” the Granger girl said.
“I am the professor and what I say goes. Now, leave all of you!” You sort of shouted the kast bit and they all scattered out the class room.
*******************************************************
It was dinner time but you decided to skip out and start writing. You were writing a book on all your best wizarding battles in America.
You were sitting at your desk with the dim candlelight shining on your face accentuating your featured and Suddenly your door burst open with the three men you knew more than yourself came in.
You didn’t look up and kept writing.
“Threatening Our Son now L N” James snarled.
“Would have been nice of you to knock” you smirked to yourself still not giving them your full attention.
“Oh cut the crap L/N, You’re not impressing anyone” Sirius’s infamous voice rang in your ears.
“Wasn’t trying to, I think I am enough for all my adoring fans” you finally looked up at them and gave them a cheeky grin.
They hadn’t changed much in eleven years.
The three men stood there looking very tall and assertive.
Most of Remus’ scars had faded there were just one or two new ones. You knew every single scar on his body since you used to kiss each one after a full moon. He had some dark eyebags which wasn’t surprising since the full moon was only 2 days away.
Sirius had grown a beard which made him look older, mature and sexier. His eyes were still the same mysterious grey colour that at times you couldn’t stop looking at them. They consumed you.
James was still buff from quidditch. His hair was no longer as messy and as unruly as you remembered. He still had a mischievous glint in his eyes and smile lines embedded in his face from his famous 'Potter Smirk’ as Marlene McKinnon used to refer to it.
“See you’re still sitting on your fat ego” James smirked.
“Oh don’t worry Potter, couldn’t nearly compare to yours. Looks like you still have two bitches kissing your ass every night” you smiled which seemed to infuriate the three men more.
“Give me Harry’s wand” Remus spoke up in an angered tone.
“Oh no the big bad wolf is mad. Oh Please Remus don’t blow my house down after all I’m just an innocent little girl” you teased.
Sirius looked like he was about to pounce.
“Easy there mutt don’t want to go barking up the wrong tree, do we?” You were having the time of your life.
“We are all adults we can remain civil” James tried to calm the room.
“Not to worry Jamsie I won’t do nothing… Just having a little fun”
“Seemed to be having a lot of fun being a bitter bitch to my son? Jealous L/N” Sirius questioned.
“Your son can’t even rub two brain cells together to come up with a better spell than expelliarmus” you snorted.
“Typical L/N ignoring the question. I asked if you were jealous? Huh L/N. Oh I get it she’s scared again” You quickly pulled your wand out and pointed it right at him.
James and Remus quickly pulled out their’s.
“Say it fucking again Black. I dare you. I could do things that not even Grindlewald could fathom” you seethed.
“Look at you again. Putting up all these walls cause your scared. You act all tough with your top Auror position but deep down you are a scared little Bitch” He smirked.
“And you don’t fo the same thing Black? Hows Mummy?” You snarled.
“Okay, what crawled up your bitter arse and died?” He shouted.
“YOUR FUCKING CHILD” you screamed back and immediately realised what you said and clamped your hand over your mouth and gasped.
You couldn’t believe what you just said.
The room went deadly silent.
It was terrifying.
Then there was a burst of laughter from Remus.
Followed by the two other men.
You started laughing as well.
For the first time in years, you had a proper laugh.
The laughing went on for a good minute until it died down to a few chuckles. You were all wiping the tears from your eyes.
“Fucking hell” James sighed still laughing a little.
The room was in comfortable silence for a few moments.
“You are right” you admitted.
“What?” They all questioned at the same time.
“I am scared. I’ve been scared for the last thirteen years. I was scared for a child… Then I left and was scared to leave my stupid boyfriend and I am scared to face you.” You hated to admit it but ur was true.
“I’m sorry. Truly I am I don’t regret what I did though. I don’t want children. Never have and never will. I do regret leaving you though. But then at the same time, I don’t because I think you could have fought harder to find me. But you didn’t” you had tears in your eyes threatening to spill.
“It was better that you left anyways” Sirius said.
You knew what he was going to say the one thing you didn’t want to them to say but it was gojng to happen.
“We were cheating on you” There it was.
Deep down you knew it all along.
“How is Lily doing?” You asked. It was Lily it had always been Lily. They loved her first and she would always be first. The girl with emerald green eyes and flaming red hair. They told you not to worry about her but you knew and you were right. No matter who you were you would always be the second choice. Because why choose Y/N L/N when they can have Lily Evans.
“How di-”
“Wha-”
“This was a mistake” you stood up from your desk and walked to your room. You grabbed your suitcases not been unpacked yet. And grabbed your book from the desk.
“Tell Dumbledore I am sorry but something else came up” you stated flatley.
“Y/N-” Remus started but you cut him off.
“I refuse to be second choice again not with you or this job. He wanted you first and you refused… For the first time in my life, I’m not going to be second… Goodbye, My Loves, I’m sorry” With that you stepped into the fireplace and vanished in the flames.
*******************************************************
Harry came into the Potter-Lupin-Black household holding a book in his hand.
“Hey Look what I found in the Muggle Book shop” Harry came in and showed his three fathers.
It was a light lilac book, average size with gold accents.
On the cover, it read 'to my first choice, from your second - Y/N L/N’

It was another Tuesday. Another order meeting that so many members felt was becoming pointless. It felt as if they were getting nowhere and Voldemort was getting more ahead with each passing day.
“We have some good news for once.”
Moody grumbled as everyone took their seats. No one dared to say anything for a moment as “good news” did not happen often. It seemed bad news was all that any member of the order was entitled to. Dorcas had been killed a week before and was laid to rest the day before the current meeting.
“Do I dare ask what kind of good news are being privy to?”
Sirius asked. He didn’t want to bury another childhood friend. Hell, he didn’t want to bury anybody but funeral and burial seemed like just another occurrence….and he hated it. Moody nodded curtly as he leaned back in his chair.
“It seems Voldemort is taking up some darker magic than we expected…”
“Well, that sure is some good news.”
James grumbled from his place beside Lily. Moody shot him a dark look before continuing.
“If you lot can keep your opinions to yourself for a moment that would be great. As I was saying, Voldemort has apparently taken up making Horcruxes.”
No one in the order made a pleased as punch face upon hearing this information. Sirius leaned back in his chair muttering a quiet “fuck.” He wasn’t sure how Moody considered this good news but here they were.
“With this knowledge, we at least have a method of getting on upon him. I currently have someone working on tracking and a method of destroying the shit.”
Moody continued. James poked a hand up. He wasn’t about to interrupt Moody twice in one night and get hexed.
“How exactly do we know this is happening and who is working on this?”
Moody leaned back in his chair. He knew the next few moments were going to be some of the tensest moments in some time.
“We have someone from Voldemort’s side on our side now.”
No one dared say anything for a moment. Someone deflecting from the death eaters was unheard of. No one was brave enough to. It would have been suicide.
“Dare I ask who it is?”
Marlene commented. Moody stood up and walked to the door. The room was silent as the grave until the moment Regulus Black stepped in with you at his side. James, Sirius, and Lily’s mouths dropped. This was the last thing they EVER expected to happen! The last time that James had spoken to you was the night that you told him that you loved Regulus and were marrying him. After one hell of an argument, James said that he would never speak to you again and you replied with a “fine if that is what you want.” Now here you stood looking just as you had the last time that James laid eyes on you.
“How can we trust them?”
Marlene snapped. Moody turned to the nervous-looking young woman.
“Because I don’t think if Regulus handing over a Horcrux would have happened.”
“He gave you one?”
Sirius commented. He was surprised that his own voice worked. Seeing his little brother in the same room was a bundle of emotions. Sirius was going between furious, heartbroken, and thrilled.
“Yes, I gave him one.”
Regulus said in his neat as a pin eerily calm voice. Moody motioned to the chairs at the table as Regulus wrapped one hand around yours and limped to the seats. Sirius watched quietly a moment before curiosity got the better of him.
“What happened to you?”
Regulus’ cold eyes rolled up to his brother. This would be the first time that the two brothers had spoken in years.
“I almost had my leg ripped off by an inferi trying to get the Horcrux. I don’t recommend it.”
Sirius sat back in his chair as the realization that Regulus was the one that discovered the Horcrux hit home. It wasn’t just him learning information. Regulus had put the puzzle together and gone after the cursed item himself.
You sat quietly at Regulus’ side. When stepping into the room, you glanced at your older brother for a brief moment before looking away. Seeing James was yet another painful reminder of being abandoned because you fell in love with the wrong boy.
“Why would you want to help us?”
Marlene asked, genuinely curious. It had been no secret to the order that Regulus Black was a death eater. In fact, it was information that nearly sent Sirius around the twist when he found out. It had taken James, Remus, and Lily to convince him to not go after his brother and shake some sense into him.
“Because you lot have no idea what you are dealing with nor do you know what you are getting yourselves into. Right now, everyone is grabbing something of value and heading for the hills. If you want to stop Voldemort then this is the way….this is the only way. You can believe what I’m telling you or don’t…it will be your funeral.”
Regulus commented as James turned to you.
“Y/n, is he telling the truth?”
“We wouldn’t be here if he wasn’t.”
You replied. It felt strange talking to James. Hearing him say your name was thrilling yet painful at the same time. It made you feel, if even for a brief moment, as you had as a child. You had an older brother who loved you and wanted to see you do well in life.
“I don’t know why you would bother asking me though. I’m as bad as he is…in your eyes.”
You added. Regulus’ eyes flickered to you. The two of you were in agreement that neither party wanted to be involved with the order. Neither of you wanted to deal with the questioning and judgmental gazes but this was the only choice that you had. This was the only way to get rid of a madman that no one would have the knowledge of knowing how to kill.
James meanwhile ran a hand over his face.
“That’s not true.”
Regulus turned his attention to James. He would have been fine with going over and kicking James in the face or hexing him to kingdom come. Regulus had been the one that cared for you the past few years. He had been the one to see you go through inner hell because your family wanted nothing to do with you any longer. It had all been him. Now here sat big-headed James-fucking-Potter acting as if he were some typical older brother and was talking to you as if it were any other day.
James wasn’t there when you didn’t get an invitation to his and Lily’s wedding. He wasn’t there when you read the birth announcement in the Daily Prophet about their kid’s birth and cried for days. That was all Regulus. He was going to make god damn sure that James never hurt you again.
“Denial at its finest.”
Regulus commented. James turned to Regulus.
“What are you talking about, Black?”
Regulus shrugged before sneering at James.
“Denial is not just a river in Egypt, Potter. You haven’t spoken to your sister in years. None of you have. You call yourself friends? None of you have had anything to do with Y/n from the moment that she agreed to marry me. If you were any kind of brother, you would have dealt with it because I make your sister happy. With friends like the lot of you who honestly needs enemies.”
You wrapped your hand around Regulus’. The last thing that you wanted for him at the moment was to get too worked up. Since the incident with the inferi, Regulus’ had been permanently injured. His legs had never healed properly and he seemed weakened by the position that he was forced to drink. Since the incident, you had taken it upon yourself to care for him. Regulus had cared for you when you had no one; now it was your time to be the good wife and make sure he was well cared for in return.
James meanwhile was staring at the two of you with wide eyes. He wanted to make a comment. James wanted to call Regulus a sister stealing git who turned her to the dark side but he didn’t. Partially because Lily was squeezing his hand so tightly that he was about to lose circulation and also if he wanted to make any progress with you smarting off to your husband would probably be a shitty way to start.
“Okay, let’s just stop. We are all on the same side. Yeah, we have questions but insulting each other is getting nowhere.”
Remus commented from his place at Sirius’ side. Sirius had seemingly forgotten about his ability to speak as he stared at Regulus.
“He’s right. I don’t have the ambition to listen to family drama.”
Moody grumbled before continuing the meeting as if nothing happened. As far as Moody was concerned, the lot of you could work out your own issues when he was no longer there.
Once the meeting was over Moody turned to Remus.
“Sirius and yourself are to keep an eye on them.”
Regulus raised an eyebrow as Remus shrugged. Remus was not about to argue with Moody. It would get him nowhere.
“Keep an eye on us?”
Moody nodded coldly.
“You heard me right. I’m not saying that we don’t trust you but we don’t trust you. You have to earn that. The Horcrux is a good place to start but you both have a long way to go.”
Regulus clenched his jaw as all of the order members minus James, Lily, Remus, Sirius, and yourself sat at the table. Moody turned on his way to the door.
“Fix your shit and get over it. We don’t have time for family drama.”
No one said a word for a few moments. It was as if everyone was just waiting for someone else to say a word. Finally, Sirius decided to say something.
“So the inferi tried to turn you into a pretzel?”
Regulus raised an eyebrow. He wanted to say that he was happy to see his older brother but he wasn’t. Regulus was still bitter at Sirius for choosing the Potters over him. Leaving him in the horror house known as Grimmauld Place with expectations that Regulus never wanted was a poor way to be left.
“Something like that.”
Regulus replied. A silence fell over the room again.
“How’s mum and dad?”
Sirius asked. Regulus rolled his eyes for the 100th time.
“Mum is insane as always and dad is dead.”
“You seem so bothered.”
James muttered. Regulus turned to James with a dark look.
“We don’t all have lovely cozy relationships with our parents, Potter. Some of us have to deal with abuse and unfortunate abandonment. When dad had his heart attack that was another peaceful moment for me.”
Sirius winced. He knew that Regulus and Orion never had a great relationship. Regulus was the son that Orion never wanted and Orion was the father that Regulus was forced to deal with.
“What happened to him?”
Sirius asked. He had never heard exactly what happened to his father. There was an obituary (Where Sirius of course wasn’t mentioned) but no cause of death listed.
“He had a heart attack playing golf.”
Regulus replied. He couldn’t help but smirk at the look of confusion on his elder brother’s face. This was probably the last thing that Sirius ever expected to hear. In Regulus’ mind, Sirius was probably expecting Walbruga to poison him. That’s what Regulus would have thought would be the cause of Orion Black’s death if he wasn’t involved with the family any longer.
“I’m sorry but golf? Like muggle golf? Dad did realize that was a muggle thing right?”
Sirius question, feeling beyond confused. Regulus again nodded as if this was no weird conversation. To Regulus, this was just facts.
“I can’t say why he was investing time in that hobby. Mother thinks it has something to do with some skirt he was chasing. Anyway, there was a swan that dad thought looked at him weird….”
Sirius couldn’t help it but he started laughing interrupting Regulus.
“Merlin help me…a swan? What?”
Regulus blinked coldly.
“Yes, a swan. Apparently, it honked at him and dad decided to whack it with the golf club except his plan backfired. He had a heart attack and the swan lived.”
Sirius couldn’t help the laughter that came out of him. This was possibly the funniest thing that he had heard in some time. Even with Regulus, being as inanimate as inanimate could be, it was the funniest thing that Sirius had heard.
“Damn, all of those years mum spent trying to kill him and he was offed by a swan.”
Regulus wished that he could have laughed. He wished that he could have said that he found it amusing (because it was) but he couldn’t. Regulus couldn’t bring himself to show too much emotion around the people in front of him. Maybe in time, when he learned to trust them, he could but for now, all of his walls were up.
“We would like to be shown to a room. While this conversation has been amusing, Y/n and I are both tired.”
Lily got up quickly.
“We have a guest room upstairs. Dinner should be ready in an hour or so.”
Your heart ached to look at Lily and hear her voice. She had been the sister-in-law that you had always wanted. Hearing her talk brought back the same old wounds as hearing James and Sirius’ voices.
“Thank you.”
You replied as Regulus stood up. Neither of you said another word before leaving the room. Maybe in the coming months, you would find a way to heal old wounds but today was not that day.
The moment the bedroom door closed behind you, Regulus limped to the bed and sat down. You moved to sit beside him.
“Well, here we are.”
You said, keeping your voice down.
“Yes, here we are. Do you hate this as badly as I do? I feel like all of their eyes are upon us like a herd of wild jackals and we are the prey.”
You moved to sit on Regulus’ lap. Snuggling your face against his shoulder, you wanted to disagree. You wanted to say that they were just being careful and everything would smooth out but you couldn’t. Neither of you knew how long this feeling of “being under the microscope” would last. It could be a week, a month, a year, or even the rest of eternity.
“I hate it too, Reggie. I suppose we should get used to being looked at the way we were because it isn’t going to stop until they trust us.”
“Which could be the 12th of never.”
Regulus grumbled. He was again quiet a moment before focusing his attention on your pretty face. Regulus hated seeing you look so down and depressed. He hated it even more that he was the cause you were this way. If he hadn’t agreed to be a death eater, you would never had lost contact with your family. You would never have had to feel so alone and abandoned…but here the two of you were.
“Do you regret it?”
He asked. You frowned turning to look at your husband curiously.
“Regret coming here? We didn’t really have a…”
“No, Y/n. Do you ever regret marrying me? You could have had something different. Your family would have never done you the way that they did.”
You quickly leaned forward and pressed your lips to Regulus’ silencing him for a moment. When you leaned back he gave you a small smile that he reserved only for you.
“Regulus, I regret nothing. I married you because I love you. I’m exactly where I want to be…well maybe not in this room being judged by our siblings but I’m with you. If I didn’t want to marry you then I would have said no. As far as my family…I suppose it shows that the Potters aren’t so damn perfect after all. They made their choice just as I made mine….and I don’t regret anything.”
Regulus nodded before leaning forward and kissing you again.
“I’m sure all of this will end up alright…somehow. Your safety is worth being stuck in a house full of idiots that I despise. Maybe it doesn’t have to be so horrible. We’ll keep to ourselves and mind our own business.”
You moved to make sure the door was locked before pulling your dress over your head to change.
“Minding our own business is a great idea. Let’s see how long it takes one of us to go off on the lot of them. I say a day.”
Regulus raised an eyebrow before smirking.
“You are more generous than I am, love. I say an hour.”
You moved to join Regulus back on the bed.
“At least we have each other.”
Regulus wrapped a hand around yours and squeezed gently.
“For eternity”

“I hate you!”
You yelled, throwing an egg at Regulus.
“Hate to break it to you, sweetheart, but I hate you more!”
He yelled right back before ducking against your egg attack. The two of you had been in one hell of an argument since he made the comment about your anniversary not being too big of a deal. Regulus wanted to spend the day off with Evan doing Merlin only knew what.
“I should leave.”
You snapped as Regulus leaned against the counter and tried to count to ten. He needed to do something to cool the fuck off.
“Maybe you should! It would be god damn peaceful around here without you yapping nonstop.”
He replied. Regulus knew he didn’t mean it. He liked, no loved, you being with him. At the moment, he only wanted to hurt you.
By the look on your face, he achieved his goal. You stared at him before shaking your head.
“Fine. I don’t know why I wasted my time on you anyway for. I’m gone. I gave up everything for you and you give me nothing in return. Well, I’m done.”
You turned and walked out of the room without another word. As far as you were concerned, you were done with Regulus Black.
He’s only going to hurt you.
James’ words came back to haunt you. Your older brother didn’t want you dating Regulus. Hell, he pleaded with you not to. In James’ eyes, Regulus was a dangerous choice for a lover. After James found out that Regulus had a dark mark on his left arm, James lost all hope that he had in Regulus actually being a decent human being.
You decided to go against your brother’s wishes and follow your heart with the man with the perfect body. Now you were wondering if you should have done what James said and walked away. If you had, maybe you would be involved in the world’s dumbest argument over an anniversary that apparently meant nothing.
I wasn’t asking for too much. All I wanted was a romantic night that involved me wearing nothing but a diamond necklace.
You thought as you began shoving your clothes into a suitcase with an extension charm on it.
“Well, I’m done.”
You grumbled before looking for more things that you would take with you. Where you were going, you had no idea but at the moment you didn’t care. You would stay at the Leaky Cauldron until you made a safe plan.
Regulus meanwhile, downed a shot of fire whiskey before running a hand through his hair. Now that his temper was cooling he felt a bit bad for his usual difficult ways. He knew that he wasn’t an easy man to love. In fact, he had to be downright awful at points. A lot of it was his parent’s fault but a lot was his own. Regulus didn’t know how to be completely empathetic to others’ feelings. If someone was hurt or frustrated, he didn’t pick up on it well. It just wasn’t a talent of his. Now here you were, yet again, suffering because of it.
Clenching his fist, Regulus had to think of a way to apologize for being an utter ass. He was partially wondering if you were actually going to leave him? You head threatened it several times. What if today was the day that you finally had enough?
“Fuck”
Regulus grumbled before turning and running up the stairs after you. He had to damage control before things got too out of control (as if it wasn’t already).
When he walked into the bedroom, you were still putting clothing in a bag. You didn’t look up at your boyfriend.
“Y/n, are you really leaving over a stupid fight?”
“Yes. I have had enough. You don’t appreciate me. You don’t care about how I feel on anything. All I am to you is someone to keep house and put out for you.”
You didn’t look up at Regulus and see the look of shame on his face. He was treating you just like his father treated his mother. It was no shock that Walburga Black was bat shit insane. She wanted love from her husband and Orion Black had none to give. Orion Black didn’t know how to love. It wasn’t in his being to love. Now here Regulus was doing the same thing to the woman that he actually loved.
Regulus waited a moment before coming to stand in front of you. He reached down and took the pile of clothing out of your hand.
“Y/n, stop. I’m sorry I didn’t mean to upset you. I didn’t realize that this anniversary thing was such a big deal to you. Don’t leave…”
“It doesn’t work that way, Regulus. You can’t just upset me than woo me back with pretty words.”
You moved to walk away from Regulus but stopped when his hand wrapped around your wrist. Looking up into his eyes, you realized that he was being honest. He was actually apologizing.
The two of you stood quietly before Regulus shoved his mouth to yours. Neither of you moved for a moment before you threw your arms around his shoulder and hiked your thigh over his hip. Regulus quickly backed you against the wall.
“I’m not touching you until you tell me yes.”
“Fuck me, Reg.”
You growled before yanking his shirt open and began to tug at his belt. Regulus laughed coldly before shoving you backward on the bed.
“You’re definitely getting fucked, you spoiled little brat.”
Regulus was down on top of you in the blink of an eye. He bit and kissed your neck while grabbing at your breasts. One hand reached up to yank your head to the side, giving him access to your neck. You gasped the moment his teeth locked on the tender flesh of your neck. Regulus waited a moment, panting, before sucking a rather large love bite onto your skin.
“All mine.”
Regulus growled before undressing you as quickly as possible. You were surprised that he didn’t tear your clothes…Before you could finish the thought Regulus was tearing your dainty lingerie to shreds with his bare hands. You lost a lot of lingerie this way but you didn’t mind. When Regulus was tearing it off, it meant you were about to be fucked…and Regulus knew how to fuck.
The first finger in your pussy made you gasp. You were dripping for Regulus and he was going for the prize quicker than you expected. Regulus shoved a second finger than a third in before you could process what he was doing.
“I’m about to come.”
You whimpered. Regulus removed his middle finger to tease your clit while continuing his assault on your body.
“Oh, you are going to come alright. I’m going to make you come on my fingers then you are going to come on my cock. I’m going to have you screaming until your throat bleeds from pleasure.”
Throwing your head back into the pillow, you moaned Regulus’ name to the point of screaming as your orgasm overtook you. Regulus finger fucked you through your orgasm. He only stopped the moment your breathing began to slow.
Removing his hand from your pussy, Regulus made sure that you were watching him as he licked each finger clean.
“I would love to shove my face in your twat but I want to fuck it more.”
The make-up sex between the two of you made the arguments worth it. When it came to make-up sex, Regulus was the king. Tonight was going to be no exception.
“I want you.”
You replied, hoping Regulus would take pity and push in. As much as you wanted to suck his dick until Regulus couldn’t take it, you wanted to fuck him more. Normally, the two of you enjoyed a large amount of foreplay but tonight was just not the night.
Regulus wasn’t moving fast enough for your liking. He hovered on top of you, supporting his weight on his hands.
“Put me where you want me.”
He said, his voice sounding more authoritative. You leaned up enough to brush Regulus’ lips with yours. Lying back against your pillow, you reached down to wrap your hand around Regulus’ cock. He gave a light moan as your hand tightened. You gave Regulus’ cock a few quick pumps until you felt the precum fall onto your stomach.
Guiding Regulus’ cock to your entrance. Regulus waited a moment before shoving his thickness deep inside of you. The two of you let out a moan at the pressure of Regulus stretching you open.
Regulus tried to remain stationary and not start moving too quickly but he couldn’t. Your little tight pussy was milking him for all that he was worth. Fucking you hard and fast wasn’t enough for Regulus. He needed you crying his name with a pulsing pussy to be completely satisfied.
“You’re mine and you aren’t god damn going anywhere. Your place is with me in our bed. Fucking take it, spoiled bitch.”
You moaned at Regulus’ words. They were passion-filled threats that made your twat clench around his thick cock.
“Harder, Regulus…please, love.”
Regulus laughed coldly before fucking you harder. He knew that the two of you would be coming hard within the moment and wanted to enjoy each second. The sound of skin slapping against skin filled the room as the two of you inched closer and closer to coming.
“Coming, Regulus”
You gasped as the sensation of coming apart overtook you. Regulus waited a moment before increasing his thrusts. He needed to come too. After an argument and fucking like the two of you just had, he was ready to fill you up.
Feeling Regulus come inside of you made your body clench around his once more.
“Baby…”
Regulus grunted before pulling out and falling down beside you. He was quiet a moment before turning to face you. Regulus stroked a strand of hair away from your sweaty face.
“So I was thinking…how about we get away a bit for our anniversary? Maybe go to some cozy little bed and breakfast and well…do more of this?”
You turned to snuggle against Regulus’ chest to enjoy the moment.
“I think that sounds like a wonderful idea.”

Another day, another secret…
You thought miserably as you plopped down in front of James and Sirius. Both boys looked up at you curiously. Over the past few months, both boys had noticed a change in your usually sunny disposition. You had gone from happy-go-lucky to moody and grumpy with little to no explanation of what was going on.
James gave Sirius a shrug. He was half considering bringing the subject up to Remus whenever he got out of the hospital. As your older brother, Remus probably had an idea about what was bothering you.
Sirius gave James a grin before speaking.
“Don’t you look like a ray of absolute sunshine this morning?”
You barely looked up when Sirius made a sarcastic comment. In fact, you didn’t comment at all. Neither James nor Sirius would understand what you were dealing with anyway. Why would they? Neither of your brother’s friends had to hide their relationship or feel like some dirty secret. No, that was all you. You were the one that was being treated as if you weren’t good enough.
Glancing across the grass, your eyes locked on Regulus who was quietly talking to Evan Rosier and Barty Crouch Jr. It took all you had not to march up to your boyfriend of a year and end it all…but you wouldn’t. You loved Regulus and that was what led to your current position.
A year ago you agreed to be Regulus’ girlfriend. You had been crushing on Regulus for ages and now that he wanted to be your boyfriend you were over the moon. The only thing was it came with a catch. Regulus wanted to keep it secret. He didn’t want word getting out that he had a girlfriend. He had his “precious reputation” to protect and somehow you would ruin that.
If I had any kind of spine I would have told him to shove off but no…I was so desperate for love and attention I made this stupid agreement.

If I had any kind of spine I would have told him to shove off but no…I was so desperate for love and attention I made this stupid agreement.
You grumbled in your mind. It didn’t matter how much you loved Regulus…at the moment you were ready to end things and go about your business.
“Hello…earth to sunshine…come in sunshine.”
Sirius’ obnoxious voice pulled you from your mind.
“Would you hush already?”
You snapped. Sirius and James both blinked awkwardly as they stared at you. It wasn’t often when you kicked off but here lately you were doing it a lot.
“Um…sorry? What has your knickers in such a twist? You are acting just like my grumpy brother over there.”
Sirius commented. You sighed and turned back to Sirius.
“I’m just not in the mood, okay?”
James decided to come in. He gave Sirius a look that said “my turn.”
“Want to tell us what is bothering you so bad? It’s not often that you see Hufflepuffs so grumpy and snapping. Is it because Remus is in the hospital? He’ll be out in a day or two.”
“It isn’t about Remus.”
You replied, coldly. James scratches his head as Lily sits down. She automatically realizes that you are in a hell of a mood. Lily had noticed, just like James and Sirius, that you were awfully moody lately.
“Y/n, are you okay? We are all really worried about you.”
“Just forget it.”
You grumbled before standing up and walking off. At the moment, you wanted to be somewhere by yourself. In your haste, you didn’t notice Regulus, Evan, and Barty all watching with curious expressions on their faces.
“Would you look at that? The little ball of happy sunshine is in a mood again.”
Evan commented with a chuckle. Barty quickly came in.
“She snapped on Flitwick the other day.”
“Too bad she is suddenly so moody. I was about to ask her on a date. Now I don’t think I even want to. I’m moody enough without help.”
Evan said as he moved to lie backward in the grass. Regulus, meanwhile, was staying silent. He knew exactly why you were moody. You were pissed at him…not that he blamed you. On the last date, you had mentioned actually going public with the relationship and Regulus said no.
“At least you know yourself. I’ll see you lot later.”
Regulus commented before getting up and going in the opposite direction of you. He had an idea where you were headed but didn’t want to raise anyone’s suspicions.
Walking into the forest, Regulus only had to walk a few feet before seeing you sitting with a book open on your lap.
“I owe you for yelling at my brother. He looked totally stunned.”
You looked up from your book. Regulus stood a few feet away. You decided to take a few moments to respond. Instead, you only looked at your boyfriend.
Damn him and his perfect jaw line.
You thought before deciding to speak.
“Why are you here Regulus?”
Regulus let his bag fall to the ground before crossing his arms in that annoying way that made him look superior to all.
“I saw your little nasty scene back there and as your boyfriend, I wanted to make sure that you were okay.”
You snorted. “Your boyfriend” funny way to put what the two of you were. At the moment, you couldn’t help but think about how much you “gave” to this relationship. In one year, you kept a massive secret from your brother and all of your friends. You respected all of Regulus’ boundaries. To you, Regulus was just some guy that you got to meet in secret to spend time with, snog, and sometimes hold hands with. He hated being touched and everything was on his terms. That you were totally fine with. If Regulus was uncomfortable with sex, holding hands, and kissing then you could respect his boundaries until he was comfortable. The key phrase was you did everything.
Regulus never initiated dates. It was always you setting up everything and slipping him the notes. He didn’t notice when you were upset. In fact, he didn’t seem to care at all. You had to tell him how upset you were before he would acknowledge any pain you were feeling about whatever the subject of misery was. Regulus would then dismiss whatever you were upset about with an “I’m sure it isn’t as bad as it seems.”
Maybe I need to talk to him?
You thought. The relationship seemed to be you giving and Regulus just taking. Something needed to be “given” in your favor.
“Boyfriend…right.”
You commented before getting up and starting to walk away. Regulus reached out and grabbed your arm to stop you then promptly let you go.
“What’s with you? Are you still mad about our relationship?”
Regulus asked, his voice becoming colder by the second. You sighed. It was now or never. You needed to let him know how you felt because he clearly wasn’t going to figure it out on his own.
“I don’t think that we really have one.”
Regulus looked a bit confused. To him, the relationship was perfect. He had you all to himself for periods each day. Regulus didn’t have to worry about his neurotic mother getting involved and throwing a fit over your half-blood status. Regulus could keep his reputation for the purebloods but have a safe place with you.
“Yes, we do. We don’t shove it in other people’s faces and be obnoxious about it.”
“I’m not allowed to tell anyone about it.”
You replied. Regulus again looked confused.
“I don’t understand why you want everyone to know so badly. One person finds out and it will be like wildfire. People will be expecting things that neither of us wants…why deal with all of that?”
You stood silently a moment making Regulus question if you heard him.
“You don’t want anyone to know because my blood status is an embarrassment to you. Just like me having a brother that is a werewolf would be an embarrassment for you. The great Regulus Black dating some filthy half-blood with a werewolf brother…how scandalous would that be? Let’s face it, Regulus we are both just wasting our time with all of this. Nothing will come of it anyway. We will graduate and you will marry some pureblood girl…and to hell with whatever happens to me.”
Regulus’ face was livid.
“You know nothing of what will happen in the future.”
“It’s kind of obvious, Regulus. Look at your family. Do you think your mother will ever be accepting of me? No. You won’t do anything to displease her.”
“That’s not true.”
Regulus said in a soft voice. You snorted, laughing bitterly for a moment.
“Yes, it is! That is all you do! You do nothing but please her. If it wasn’t true then you wouldn’t have kept me as some dirty secret for a year. We wouldn’t have to be acting like your brother and snogging in the hallways. I would have respected your boundaries until you were comfortable approaching them. We could have been just like we are now but no. You won’t do it because your family won’t approve. I’ll never be good enough for you or them. I’ll see you around.”
You moved to walk past Regulus again and again he reached for your hand.
“Y/n, please… it’s not what you think.”
“Stop lying to me and yourself, Regulus. We both deserve better than that. Now as I said…I’ll see you around. Good luck with whatever pureblood princess you end up with.”
This time Regulus didn’t stop you. He stood looking like the lost puppy that had been kicked too many times and now did not know how to reciprocate love watching as your form grew smaller and smaller in the thick woods.
You knew that you would probably regret your decision when you cooled off but at the same time, you also deserved better. No one deserved to be someone’s dirty secret because they didn’t know how to tell their family about them. You deserved better and for once you needed to think about yourself.
Taking a breath you stopped and leaned against a heavy tree. You partially were listening to see if Regulus was trying to catch up with you. As expected, you heard silence. No birds, no trees moving in the wind…just complete and utter bone-chilling silence.
“And that is how my first love ended…”

When the door opened, the breath once again caught in Regulus’ chest. What was going to say to Sirius? Their conversations had been very limited. It was mostly Sirius begging Regulus to come home and Regulus saying no. Now they were going to be living in the same house together for the first time since they were teenagers and Regulus had no idea what they were going to talk about.
Part of him hoped Sirius wouldn’t bring up their childhood because that was the last damn thing that Regulus wanted to talk about. Another part of him did. The still bitter and angry part that Regulus kept under lock and key wanted to tell Sirius how angry (and heartbroken) he was that Sirius chose to leave. Regulus wanted to tell Sirius how much it hurt him to see his older brother living his best life with James Potter.
Sirius acted as if Regulus no longer existed after the night he left. He would walk right past Regulus as if he were just another face in the crowd. Sirius acted as if Regulus wasn’t the person that he sat trembling with huddled in a closet when their mother was on a warpath and looking for a punching bag. None of that seemed to matter anymore. Regulus was nothing to Sirius and that was how Regulus saw himself…nothing.
I’m not the person that I used to be nor is he…I need to give him a chance.

a random thought for Jegulus shippers.
Why aren’t you calling them Starbucks?
(I know it was a thing for Sirius and James, but it works so much better for jegulus)
so much fluff coming your way. spoiler alert: EVERYONE lives
who said he never lived past forty?
March 10th, 2000.
“Oh come on you old thing—” Harry muttered at the ancient bike squeaking its way up the hill— why did they have to live on a hill? At least, Harry thought, the weather was nice. It was a glorious March day, the sun finally starting to grace England amidst the spring buds just about to bloom.
Panting as he jumped off the bike at the front porch, Harry wasted no time in starting to pound their front door, “Sirius! Sirius get out of here— if we don’t go get the cake by noon we’ll have to put Fred and George on Teddy duty and they’ve threatened to feed him the—”
The door opened with Remus looking exasperatedly bemused.
Harry gaped at him with one fist still raised in the air, “Remus! Ugh— hi!” he said intelligently, “aren’t you— supposed to be at Hogwarts? It’s a Friday.”
“For sure, I was just about to floo up. Harry, is everything alright?”
Darn it, Harry thought, Remus had been back living with Sirius ever since Teddy was born. It’s been two bloody years, how could he have forgotten? “Um, yeah. Everything’s great.”
“Did I hear something about Teddy and a cake?”
“No! Nothing of the sort.” Harry tried an oblivious look, which only turned into a shit-eating kind of grin at Remus’ raised eyebrow.
“Hmm. Try to keep your dad and Sirius in check, won’t you? Merlin forbid they strain themselves at this age.”
“Hey, I heard that—” Sirius called groggily from inside the house.
Remus sighed, fond and exasperated (in Harry’s memory Remus constantly seemed to be exasperated), and said “Do you want to come in?” and when Harry moved forward, unblocking the bike from Remus’ view, “Harry, is that— that bike on the ground used to belong to my mother!” he said laughingly.
“No offence to Nana Hope but Remus, that bike is now a pile of junk.”

“A very good morning to you, Prongslet,” Sirius’ hand, even after so many years, magnetically veered towards ruffling Harry’s hair in greeting.
“Ay stop it.” Harry half heartedly tried batting his hand away, “is Teddy still sleeping?”
“Mhm. I’ll just check on him before I go.” Remus said, making his way towards the stairs.
“Sirius—” Harry started whispering aggressively, the moment Remus moved out of earshot, “we’re on cake duty, turns out Nana Hope’s train got cancelled— fucking British trains— now Mum has to go pick her up, so we’ll also have to find someone to babysit Teddy, because no, the twins are not an option—”
“We could leave him with Molly?”
“No! This is Teddy, Molly can’t keep up!” Harry followed Sirius as he walked through to the kitchen, flicking on kettles and hobs, taking his wand out of his hair (let it be said that this never got old) to send breakfast ingredients flying across the air. He added a single sugar to a hot cup of tea, and sent the mug sailing out to find Remus.
“Eggs, Harry?”
“Oh yes, and have you got one of those blueberry muffins— oh hell yeah! Cheers, Sirius.”
“Anything for you, pup. Now what about Ginny, shouldn’t she be free?”
“Godric’s sake, Sirius. You were the one who kept telling me about having to stop Dad from throwing me around like a quaffle. We don’t trust toddlers with professional chasers.”
Sirius laughed, “You’re right, you’re right. Well, Ron and Hermione?”
“Have you even been paying attention? Ron and Hermione are setting up the—”
Remus appeared at the kitchen door, and smiled, indulgently suspicious, eyes narrowed just, at the way Harry had abruptly cut himself off. Sirius, completely unfazed, chuckled to himself.
“Thank you for the tea, love,” Remus said, setting his mug down on the counter.
Sirius immediately made his way across, and they shared a short kiss. “You’re heading off?”
“Yeah.”
“Well go on,” they share a honey-wine kind of smile, mellowed by three decades of life together, “go blow some children away.”
“I’ll see you both tonight? At Lily and James’?” Remus said on the threshold of the fireplace.
Harry turned to Sirius. They shared an identical grin.
“Hey Remus,” Harry called out. Remus raised a single eyebrow. “Happy birthday.”
Remus breathed a laugh like he’s finally heard the stone he’d been waiting to drop. “Thank you Harry. But I’ll have you know, these two words have somehow filled me with so much fear.” he said, before stepping away into the green flames.

As Remus sat down at the head table next to Regulus, he pushed towards him a book-shaped package, neatly wrapped in parchment.
“Happy birthday, old man.” Regulus said between sips of tea, eyes not leaving the Prophet page.
“Regulus— thank you.” Remus said heartily, “What book is it this year?”
“A niche thing about pseudo-reactive potions in identifying dark artefacts. I think you’ll appreciate it.”
Remus laughed, “One of these days you’ll quit trying to get me into potions.”
“One of these days you’ll quit pretending you don’t enjoy them.”
“Oh, it’s a day for baring our hearts, is it?”
“If there ever was one.”
“You know, Reg. You might need to admit how much thought you’ve put into the gift, and I’ll admit how much I appreciate it.”
Regulus chuckled, “Keep talking and you’ll sound like Dumbledore.”
Remus shook his head, “Could I ever.”
As they spent breakfast in each other’s comfortable companionship, familiar sharp banter, Remus allowed himself just one moment of sentimentally feeling his age. His eyes scanned the hall-full of children and marvelled. Seven years he’s been here now. He’d watched most of his friends’ children grow into brilliant young people, been witness to all the wonderful little moments of their growth, and not just through their letters on parchment. Inadvertently, embarrassingly, he’d been right there for Harry’s first detention, first crush, first break-up; picked up on too many quarrels between Ron and Hermione or the Weasley siblings; laughed his way through every time one of them slipped up during a practical lesson and called him Moony or Remus. (He always thought those occasions were more of an embarrassment for the children than himself, though Regulus thought otherwise. He heard about how he went livid the time Harry slipped up and called him Uncle Reg.)
Now, every child in the seats below Remus had known since they were eleven— the thought filled him with inexplicable warmth. This, this was worth all of it. It was worth every day of wrestling with teenagers, worth the grey lining his hair. Really, he couldn’t believe his luck. His younger self— sitting in this same hall at a much darker time— would never have fathomed being this happy, being loved and accepted in this big a place as Hogwarts, despite his lycanthropy. Would he have imagined even living to see this age?
“You know,” Regulus said suddenly, breaking him from his thoughts, “I overheard the Wilkins talking about certain— plans. I think you can look forward to an eventful day.”
“Oh dear,” Remus groaned, “I was hoping they’d forgotten now that the last Weasley’s gone.”
“Their influences stretch far and wide, that hoard of yours.”
“Mine? You mean ours, dear brother in law?”
“Oh please, imagine. The sole heir of the house of black, consorting with blood traitors and half-breeds.” He mocked, with a completely straight face.
Remus laughed in surprise, at Regulus’ accent deliberately turned up about five notches. The posh roundness was wearing thinner by the day, so it never failed to throw him back a decade or two hearing it again, even if their voices were now lower and rougher with age.
“So,” Remus asked, “you’ve any idea what that lot are up to?”
“I have no idea who you mean by that.”
A snort, “our one and only family, of course.”
Regulus smiled then, rare and soft. “For sure. Though no, you know I’m not lying when I tell you I don’t know what they’re up to. I just leave it up to them.”
“You don’t deny they’re up to something?”
Regulus put down his teacup, turned to look at him, “Remus. They’ve always been up to something. Every single day since they turned eleven.”
