Persona Chart Observations
Tumblr media
༺♡︎༻ Venus in the 8th House in the Moon Persona Chart: This placement could indicate a deeply transformative emotional life, where relationships and emotional bonds bring significant growth. Love may be felt on a profound level, with the individual experiencing both intense emotional highs and lows.
༺♡︎༻ Saturn in the 5th House in the Venus Persona Chart: This may point to a cautious approach to romantic relationships. There could be a tendency to delay pleasures or feel restricted when it comes to experiencing fun and joy in romantic connections. Individuals might prefer relationships that have a serious, long-term focus rather than casual flings.
༺♡︎༻ Jupiter in the 3rd House in the Ascendant Persona Chart: Could indicate a natural optimism and expansive view when it comes to communication. The individual may have a natural talent for storytelling or public speaking, and they tend to influence others with their optimistic mindset.
༺♡︎༻ Mercury in the 8th House in the Ascendant Persona Chart could indicate a sharp, probing mind, especially when it comes to uncovering hidden truths? People with this placement tend to be intensely curious about psychology, taboo topics, and even the occult. They may have a talent for diving deep into conversations, often revealing truths that others prefer to keep hidden, giving them an almost detective-like persona.
༺♡︎༻ Pluto in the 4th House in the Moon Persona Chart: Deep emotional transformations may stem from the home environment or family relationships. These individuals could experience powerful shifts in their emotions connected to their upbringing, and may carry ancestral emotional patterns that need to be worked through.
༺♡︎༻ Mercury in the 9th House in the Mars Persona Chart: This placement suggests someone who intellectually challenges their partners or sexual interests. There might be a strong emphasis on philosophical or moral discussions within intimate relationships, and they may feel most stimulated by partners who expand their worldview.
༺♡︎༻ Uranus in the 12th House in the Venus Persona Chart: This could indicate sudden, unexpected changes or revelations in love matters, possibly related to hidden or unconscious patterns. These individuals might have a deep, almost psychic connection to love, where breakthroughs and disruptions come from unseen forces.
༺♡︎༻ Venus Conjunct the Ascendant in the Jupiter Persona Chart: People with this placement could be seen as naturally attractive, exuding an aura of abundance and charm. Their positive and generous demeanor tends to attract opportunities for personal growth, especially in social or public settings.
༺♡︎༻ Chiron in the 10th House in the Ascendant Persona Chart: There could be a sense of wounding related to public image or career, where the individual feels their achievements are not acknowledged. Healing may come through accepting their uniqueness and finding their path outside conventional norms of success.
༺♡︎༻ Mars Conjunct Neptune in the Imum Coeli Persona Chart: This placement could point to a complex and sometimes confusing relationship with the family, where there might be hidden anger or passive-aggressive behavior at home. The family may have been very idealistic or spiritual, yet there could be an undercurrent of unspoken frustration.
Let me know if this resonate and if you want more posts like this.

DISCLAIMER! This post is based mainly on my natal chart, personal experience and opinions, so take what resonates and leave what doesn't. I also included acquaintances' charts and their perspectives and confirmed my observations with the help of astrology databanks (celebrities' birth charts). If one (or more) of the observations in this post happen to be similar to other creators, please inform me, so I can tag their page. I am open to questions, opinions and debates. I do not own any of the photos on this post, they are just for ✨aesthetic reasons✨. Thank you for reading my post and I hope it will help you heal & find yourself💞.
#1
+18? TW!
Everyone can have an addiction, it is not limited only to the 12th house Lilith placement. But we can conclude that Lilith in the 12th house person is more inclined to get addicted to escapism than being dependent on the subject of addiction.
Let's say both the 12th and 8th house Lilith can deal with 🌽addiction. 8th house Lilith has a wound surrounding power and control, so they will search for a coping mechanism that will prove to themselves their own power and autonomy. For the 12th house Lilith, this is about a fear of perceiving the reality they are in (dissociation). Their wound encircles the toxic environment they live in, so they indulge in the most satisfactory and 'safest' type of escapism according to their circumstances.
#2
Lilith in the 12th house combined with noticeable 6th house placements can indicate prominent awareness towards their addictions or their ways to escape reality. That type of person who smokes but is fully aware of the consequences it has on their body. It makes sense because the 6th house is work, self-improvement and health-oriented (perhaps with health difficulties), therefore Lilith in the 12th house here can be a bit of a challenge in this lifetime, so they might be more motivated to heal. I think we can consider this dynamic not only for the 12th-6th houses but for all opposing houses.
#3
Having the Moon and Neptune in the same house might indicate an "illusion of comfort" in childhood, especially if the moon is badly aspected. It can be pinpointed to a confusing relationship with a parent; being gaslighted maybe. The house can represent in which area the confusion is/was. If this happens in the 10th house, there also might be a 'single mom' dynamic here, whether both parents were there or not.
#4
Taurus Rising with Scorpio Venus looks best when confident. Their eyes are very fierce when focused on their goal or task. Big cat energy🐅. They are like wild cats waiting for the right time to attack their prey 😩. 10/10 Certified mommy vibes. Period 💅
#5
Both the 22° Saturn and 22° Sun indicate a restricting father/paternal figure.
For the 22° Sun, the impact is 'more personal' and it affects their confidence and identity. These people's personalities might have been repressed in their childhood. In terms of how they have been repressed, we should check the Saturn placement and/or the Saturn Persona Chart.
For the 22° Saturn, the experience is more 'detached' in comparison with the Sun person. The individual might have a more grounded sense of self than the Sun person, but the Saturn Return period is going to be crucial. This can also imply a change in careers or finally healing something in regard to their career because Saturn rules Capricorn rules Medium-Coeli.

Travis Barker & Shanna Moakler: Their Destructive 22 Degree Composite Saturn ❤️‍🔥
Tumblr media
Travis Barker and Shanna Moakler have one of the most toxic and aggresive Composite Charts I’ve ever seen, just looking at their Saturn placement sends me into a silent rage. Saturn can be a difficult planet, ruling restrictions and limitations and where we need to be responsible, so this placement in the composite chart can show areas of difficulty in the relationship. And let’s get real these two weren’t short on difficult moments.
Cancer Saturn in the 1st House @ 22 Degrees 
Conjunct Cancer Venus & Ascendant, Square 10th House Aries Mars
With Saturn in the 1st house and in the sign of Cancer, and especially at twenty two degrees, a Capricorn and destructive degree. We're not just talking about a challenge; we're looking at a relationship under siege. Saturn here is in detriment, meaning it feels like a relentless storm, bringing cold, harsh winds to what should be the warm, nurturing environment of Cancer. This placement doesn't just whisper about difficulties; it shouts about emotional blockades, creating a chilling atmosphere where insecurities fester and emotional connections freeze over. It's the kind of setting where vulnerabilities aren't gently tended to but rather are left out in the cold, leading to a buildup of resentment and detachment.
Twenty Two degrees symbolizes a deep, transformative pressure that's meant to push individuals (or relationships, in this case) to evolve, but not gently. It's like being in the pressure cooker of personal growth – it's hot, it's uncomfortable, but it's where you're forced to shed what's not serving you. In terms of a romantic relationship? Twenty Two Degrees is not great. It can indicate DIVORCE.
Tumblr media
The conjunction of Saturn with Venus and the Ascendant pours salt on these wounds. Venus, when embraced by Saturn, finds its expressions of love and affection restrained, as if love had to pass a rigorous test to prove its worth. Instead of love being a source of comfort, it becomes a battleground, where every gesture of affection is weighed and measured for its sincerity. The Ascendant's involvement makes this struggle VERY visible, not just felt. 
The square from Saturn to Aries Mars in their tenth house throws fuel on the fire, igniting conflicts between personal desires and professional ambitions. Mars, the planet of action and conflict, is already fiery, and in the 10th house, it pushes for recognition, success, and achievement. But with Saturn squaring off, it's like every step forward in their careers or public lives demanded a sacrifice at the altar of their personal lives. The tension between wanting to achieve and the need to connect and nurture their relationship created an almost impossible situation. Instead of supporting each other's ambitions, their successes became another source of competition and conflict, eroding the foundations of their partnership.
Tumblr media
This toxic mix of emotional coldness, love under scrutiny, and conflicting ambitions painted their relationship not as a sanctuary but as a battleground. Every attempt at connection was overshadowed by the looming specter of Saturn, ensuring that instead of growing closer, they were driven further apart. Their story, marked by these astrological challenges, serves as a cautionary tale about the importance of warmth, open communication, and mutual support.

Hello, new follower. Excited to read your other observations 🫶.Also because of your name I am asking. What do you think of natal Mercury rx at 22 degree in the first house.
Mercury Rx in the 1st house at 22 degrees
If you have Mercury retrograde at 22 degrees in your first house, it indicates that you may face challenges and opportunities related to self-expression, communication, and self-perception. You might find yourself needing to think deeply before expressing yourself or communicating with others, which can lead to a more introspective communication style. This placement suggests that you possess a keen intellect and curiosity, particularly directed towards understanding yourself on a deeper level. However, you may sometimes struggle with expressing yourself clearly or experiencing miscommunications with others. Despite these challenges, you have the potential for profound self-awareness and personal growth through introspection and reflection on your identity and how you present yourself to the world.
Hope this helps! ✨

The 22° degree in the Lunar Return Chart
& the natal or other persona charts
Tumblr media
₊ ˚ ⊹ ࣭ ⭑ . ₊ ⊹ .₊๋‧₊ ˚ ⊹ ࣭ ⭑ . ₊ ♰ ⊹ .₊๋‧₊ ˚ ⊹ ࣭ ⭑ . ₊ ⊹ .₊๋‧₊ ˚ ⊹ ࣭
♀I feel like I've been rather preachy this month (sharing my real thoughts & opinions more than usual) both online & offline.
My LRC sun is in Scorpio (°22 Capricorn) in the 9th house too damn.
The “kill or be killed” degree as people in the know would call it, often seen as a critical turning point in one's life. In the SRC, LRC or natal & any other persona chart even, it illuminates certain pivotal decisions in our life journey.
In my case I think I've just had about enough crap in my life. It's as if I've been living some sort of double life pretending to be clueless about a lot of things when I'm offline. It's getting tiresome.
I realise if you act ingenuinely ya get bogus ass people in your life, then end up being their "accomplice" ʕ⁠´⁠•⁠ ⁠ᴥ⁠•̥⁠`⁠ʔ it's not fun. It's tiring.
The aquarius rising & aries degree also supports this; no more pretending. The same goes for Saturn & Neptune (both in retrograde) here. Feels like a long time coming.
In the Lunar Return Chart or any chart for that matter, if you see that it's in 22 degrees it's likely a certain turning point or time to take more control into your life. It may as well play a very important role in your life going into the future.
₊ ˚ ⊹ ࣭ ⭑ . ₊ ⊹ .₊๋‧₊ ˚ ⊹ ࣭ ⭑ . ₊ ⊹ .₊๋‧₊ ˚ ⊹ ࣭ ⭑ . ₊ ⊹ .₊๋‧₊ ˚ ⊹ ࣭ ⭑

Examples:
๑ஓ North node or MC at 22° in the 10th house in the Boda persona chart? Your marriage will change the way you approach the future, both in your career & daily life. The marriage has a significant influence, whether good or bad going forward. Whatever it is, it will be a turning point for your success in the future. (This is a sneak peak of the content in my boda pc analysis).
๑ஓ Moon at 22 in the MC Persona chart? The way you feel heavily impacts the way you are perceived by the public. Your image depends on how you feel at that moment. People believe you or know you for your strong constitution/ convictions. Similar to as if you had MC PC Mercury.
๑ஓ Doja Cat has Neptune (°22) in the 3rd house. Her visionary drive & creativity is unmatched. When she said "I have magical foresight" bitch, believe her. She does. Regardless of whether you'd consider her to be controversial, you cannot deny how her art has become a monumental part of meme & pop culture. She's in tune with it.
The LRC in question:

There's a lot of validity in the idea that older Bakugo is a traumatized pro-hero with major PTSD... but you know what's kinda fucked up to think about? The fact that Bakugo is also a 22-year-old pro-hero with major PTSD even before that, too.
It's almost easy to imagine that things are actually better when he's older (the therapy finally a routine, the trauma long set and on the path to being healed)... and that it's his whole 20s that are spent as a pool of disaster trying to recover from the war(s).
He looks back and barely even remembers being twenty, much less twenty-five or twenty-seven. Barely remembers how little he slept, not at the hands of trying to balance hero work and getting a degree at the same time, but just out of the pure insomnia that came from trying to move on and every nightmare attached.
Hardly ever showering, never shaving (not that he ever grew much of a beard, but the facial hair was definitely there. There's pictures of him on the news with an awkward, grown out haircut and patches on facial hair that make him look positively... immature), barely even eating more than a few protein bars or an energy jelly drink-a day. It's a blur, and his friends are hardly there to pick him up out of it because they're all going through it, too. Somewhat.
It's definitely weird if you meet him during this period. He's not all there, at least, not all of the time. He doesn't really register your interactions, the friendship you extend to him (a younger, or ever older, version of him would've shown you that deep seeded ferocity in response, tried to bite the hand that fed him, even if it were love... but 20s Bakugo... doesn't seem to notice). Even though only one of his eyes is clouded over, the good one never seems to brighten up.
There's definitely moments when the old him shines through: when he's with Deku, when he's in the midst of battle, when he finds out that Todoroki still does a shitty job at chopping scallions. But it's a long time before he's even close to the same, able to step out from underneath the fog of simply surviving and into the sunshine of recovering.
But I think sticking through it with him is worth it.
(It's a weird moment, a happy moment, the first time you realize that Bakugo has changed. That the pouring rain outside hasn't bothered him since he showed up at your apartment. He forgot his umbrella, he's been quite careless ever since the war—wet and shaggy hair frizzed up, cheeks red from cold—but he doesn't seem to mind, with his bare feet up on your coffee table, his eyes gazing out the window. You hand his tea, and instead of gulping it down in one go, letting it burn in his throat, he winces at the heat.
"Tastes like shit," he says, and you laugh because it always does. Just this time, he noticed.)

The MOON in your Moon persona chart🤍
| ⊱✿⊰ |••| ⊱✿⊰ |••| ⊱✿⊰ |
Tumblr media
The Moon in your Moon persona chart holds deep significance, far beyond simple emotion. It unveils how you instinctively respond to the world, process emotions, and deal with inner pain. This chart reveals how your psyche copes with the dark undercurrents of pain, longing, and emotional survival. It’s here, in this lunar domain, that we encounter the wounded child, the neglected soul, the disowned feelings—those parts of ourselves we rarely acknowledge, yet which speak to us through dreams, intuition, and visceral reactions.
•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°••°•
Aries Moon (Moon PC):
Tumblr media
You may have an emotional intensity that burns fast and hard, often feeling misunderstood. While it might seem that you're constantly angry, it’s often a result of deep frustration that emotions are difficult to control. In this placement, you experience emotional volatility, feeling easily provoked but just as quick to calm down once you’ve expressed yourself. However, you tend to mask your vulnerability, often presenting strength to hide your insecurities.
Hidden Insight: You may find that physical activity, competition, or pushing boundaries helps you process emotions more effectively than contemplation. Work-out in the Gym, Martial Arts. Boxing
Aries Moon in this chart suggests that embracing your vulnerability—allowing yourself to feel weak, to cry without needing to act—can be your true initiation into emotional maturity. You learn, through the fire of life, that emotions are not enemies to conquer but allies to integrate.
•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•
Taurus Moon (Moon PC):
Tumblr media
There is a strong sense of calm, but you often prioritize others' needs above your own. You hold onto emotions and may have difficulty letting go of emotional wounds. This Moon gives you a desire for stability, but sometimes this can translate into stubbornness in dealing with change or emotional upheaval. You may suppress emotions to maintain external harmony.
Hidden Insight: Self-care rituals and connecting with nature deeply recharge you. Emotional security for you means creating a physically comfortable environment that supports emotional well-being. Learning to release emotional attachments to people, objects, or memories opens you to the true nourishment of the soul, which comes not from external sources, but from your own inner stillness.
•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•
Gemini Moon (Moon PC):
Your emotional needs are linked to intellectual stimulation and communication. You may overthink feelings, which can lead to anxiety or scattered emotions. You have a knack for talking your way through pain, but sometimes you doubt whether you’re truly being heard. You may feel emotionally restless, struggling with inconsistency in your feelings.
Gemini’s shadow in this chart lies in the tendency to escape emotions through distractions. Healing comes when you allow yourself to dwell in the uncomfortable stillness, when you give voice not just to your thoughts, but to your silences
Hidden Insight: Journaling or speaking your emotions aloud can offer relief. Learning to balance rational thought with emotional experience is key to your emotional health.
Cancer Moon (Moon PC):
Tumblr media
Cancer as your Moon persona chart ruler brings forth the archetype of the wounded nurturer. You are the healer who longs to give but feels depleted because your own emotional needs often remain unmet. There is a sense of sacrifice, a belief that to nurture others is the only way to receive love. Yet beneath this giving nature lies a pool of unacknowledged grief.
Hidden Insight: True emotional healing for Cancer Moon comes when you turn that nurturing energy inward. In this chart, it asks for you to mother yourself, to hold space for your own pain, rather than seeking validation through caring for others. Only then can you find the deep emotional security you crave.
This Moon creates a strong link to family or home, and unresolved family dynamics could profoundly impact your emotional state.
Hidden Insight: Establishing clear emotional boundaries can prevent you from becoming overwhelmed by the emotional needs of others. You also find solace in connecting with your ancestry or roots.
•| ⊱✿⊰ |••| ⊱✿⊰ |••| ⊱✿⊰ |••| ⊱✿⊰ |••| ⊱✿⊰ |••| ⊱✿⊰ |••| ⊱✿⊰ |••| ⊱✿⊰ |••|

Actually the worst thing to come out of the new pjo series is people deciding Annabeth's dad was 19-22 when he was given her by Athena (and therefore "just a kid at the time" so it's not his fault, he was in debt and couldn't afford it) He was in the middle of/nearly finished with his PhD, the Chase family was rich and he was probably a legacy (college not demigod wise) so no, he was just a shit dad. And she was also like 7 when she ran away and he was already married to her stepmom who was half the problem. Characters can be 30+ actually it's okay I promise

Scott Peterson: 🥀 Venus Love Style Reading
Scott Peterson, whose name became infamously linked to a tragic crime, was convicted in 2004 for the murder of his wife, Laci Peterson, and their unborn son, Conner. The case gripped the nation, unfolding a story that, on the surface, seemed to be that of an all-American family. Yet, as details emerged, the facade of a loving husband and father-to-be crumbled, revealing a much more sinister reality. Laci Peterson disappeared on Christmas Eve of 2002, sparking a massive search operation. Scott's initial portrayal as a grieving husband began to falter under scrutiny, especially when it was revealed he had been having an affair with another woman, Amber Frey, who was unaware of his marital status. This revelation casts a shadow of deceit and infidelity over Peterson's character, undermining his initial claims of innocence.
Tumblr media
The investigation uncovered a web of lies and suspicious behavior, from Scott's purchase of a boat shortly before Laci's disappearance to his actions and movements on the day she went missing. The discovery of Laci and Conner's bodies near the area where Scott had been fishing on the day of Laci's disappearance further implicated him, despite his vehement denials of any wrongdoing. Scott Peterson's trial was a media sensation, drawing attention not only to the details of the case but also to broader issues of marital betrayal, the portrayal of victims and perpetrators in the media, and the death penalty in the United States. Convicted of first-degree murder for Laci's death and second-degree murder for the death of their unborn son, Peterson was sentenced to death, later commuted to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole after California declared a moratorium on the death penalty.
Tumblr media
Scott has Venus in Virgo, meaning Venus is in FALL. The concept of a planet being "in fall" is not about doom and gloom but rather about the complexity and depth it brings to the planet's expression. For Venus in Virgo, this positioning emphasizes a more analytical and critical approach to love and relationships. The warmth and spontaneity of Venus are replaced with a desire for perfection, often leading to a critical or overly analytical attitude towards partners and a tendency to focus on flaws or what can be improved rather than unconditional acceptance and affection. Already a placement fraught with critical and perfection-seeking tendencies, it gains a more sinister hue when we consider the destructive degree at 22. This isn't just about striving for an unattainable ideal in love or being overly critical of a partner; it's a harbinger of a love twisted, where the pursuit of perfection becomes a destructive force, not just emotionally, but in the most tragic and final sense.
Scott also has Venus in the 10th House, which when negatively aspected indicates an individual who uses relationships as a means to an end—where partners are chosen or valued based on how they contribute to one's image or goals. The desire for an ideal image to the public might overshadow the genuine emotional connection in the relationship. This could manifest as presenting a facade of a perfect relationship or family life to the world, even if the reality is far from perfect.
The sextile between Venus and Mercury in the secretive 12th House, rather than merely suggesting a preference for intellectual connection and private conversations, now casts a shadow of duplicity. It's as if Scott's capacity for intimate communication was a double-edged sword, capable of deception as easily as a connection. This aspect, under this grim light, speaks to a mind that could rationalize the irrational, and justify the unjustifiable, where the whispered words behind closed doors were not of love, but of lies. The square between Venus and Saturn in the 7th House, the domain of committed partnerships, becomes even more ominous. Instead of simply implying a strained or duty-bound approach to relationships, this aspect now screams of a suffocating control, a need to dominate and dictate the terms of love until it chokes the life out of it—literally. Saturn's cold, restrictive influence here speaks not to the normal challenges of marriage but to a relationship under siege, where one partner becomes a warden, and the other a prisoner.
Tumblr media
The trine to the North Node in the 2nd House, which might in other contexts suggest a journey towards valuing oneself and one's possessions now has a macabre twist. This aspect, in the story of a man who killed his wife, hints at the ultimate material possession: taking a life into one's own hands, and claiming ownership over another's existence. It's a stark and harrowing reminder that in some twisted minds, love and possession can become fatally conflated. The stark parallels between Scott Peterson's astrological chart and the heinous crime he committed serve as a chilling reminder of how the darker facets of our personalities can be reflected in the stars. While astrology often offers insights into our strengths, desires, and potentials, in Scott's case, it also mirrors the depths of deceit, manipulation, and control that led to an unfathomable tragedy.

Prompt 22 - Degrees
@jegulus-microfic June 22, Word count 961
Previous part First part
James said, I love you. He actually said it and he’d said it back. Regulus couldn’t hide the goofy grin on his face. He quickly got changed, made the bed and picked his poor lion up off the floor. He gently put him in the centre of the bed, protecting it from intruders, before he accepted James’s hand and headed downstairs to breakfast. 
Out of the comfort of his bed, his mind began buzzing again. He really needed to sort out this whole Barty thing. He didn’t know where he was living now, so he couldn’t confront him, and he’d deleted and blocked his phone number, even if he could remember the number, this was something that he needed to do face to face. He pulled out his phone and looked up the mechanic who picked Barty up last night. His shop was only round the corner. 
Luckily, after breakfast, Sirius challenged James to a game of Mario Kart, and knowing his brother it would turn into hours of play. 
“Hey, I’m just popping to the shop, does anyone want anything?” He asked as he picked up his coat and a set of keys. 
“Tony’s, the salted caramel one, please,” Sirius said through gritted teeth as he tried to turn with his controller as if it would actually help, James still managed to pass him. 
“James?” 
“Er, same as Sirius, that sounds good,” He said, now holding his controller at an odd angle, copying Sirius. A banana flew out of the back of his car, causing Sirius to almost spin off the track. It seemed to work for James.
“Shall I come with you?” Remus asked kindly. Regulus shook his head. 
“No, no, you stay here. I’m only getting a couple of things anyway.” He crinkled his eyes, trying to make his smile look genuine, but by the suspicious look on Remus’s face, he was failing spectacularly. He quickly walked out of the front door and set off in the opposite direction of the shop. 
Evans Mechanic came into view and his step faltered. Was he really going to try to find Barty? 
The garage was surprisingly clean for a mechanic. He stepped further in and could hear the angry mutterings of someone under the Honda Civic parked over the pit.
“Come on you little bitch, move!” The someone growled. There was a loud squeak and a cheer. “Yes baby, I knew you had it in ya!” 
“Er, hello?” Regulus asked nervously. He jumped when a metal tool was dropped to the ground and Evan appeared from under the car. 
“Regulus?” Evan looked around nervously, “What are you doing here?” 
“I need to know how to get hold of Barty. I need him to understand that we’re over,” Evan’s eyes darted to the door Regulus had just walked in through. 
“I don’t think that’s a good idea, Regulus. I’ll keep him away, okay, but the more he sees you the more he’s going to want to see you.” Just then the door opened again and Barty appeared with a Greggs bag in his hand. The smell of the sausage rolls wafted in, filling the small garage with its moreish scent. 
“Reg?” Barty’s eyes went wide.
“Damn it,” Evan groaned. “Use the office. If it gets too heated I’m breaking it up, do you understand?” Barty walked over to Evan and pushed the bag of food into his hands. Evan hissed something that Regulus couldn’t quite hear before Barty rolled his eyes, but nodded. “I mean it, Barty,” Evan said louder as Barty stalked through the door into the office. 
The office was small. It was full of paperwork and smelled of oil. There was a computer chair behind the cluttered desk. Barty took that one and gestured for Regulus to take the one on the other side of the desk. 
Regulus slowly lowered himself onto the blue plastic seat.
“Go on then,” Barty sneered, his lips curling into a scowl. “Let’s hear it.” He leaned back on the chair and put his scuffed boots up on the desk, somehow avoiding all the paperwork.
“Barty, look,” Regulus started. “We don’t work, we never have.” He really should have rehearsed what he was going to say to him, but it was too late now. “I have James now, and I need to be able to find out if we’re going to go anywhere, without the fear that you’re going to pop up and ruin it. Please, Barty, please let me go, please,” He begged, lowering his head. He was exhausted from all this drama. 
“And why would I do that?” Barty huffed a laugh. Regulus felt anger bubbling inside him. Why wouldn’t Barty just let him go?
“JUST FUCK OFF BARTY!!!” He screamed, hot, angry tears began to push their way out of his eyes. 
A commotion in the garage stopped him from continuing. The door burst open and Remus swept in. 
“Reggie, out,” He ordered. Barely able to see with the tears streaming down his face, he ran out of the room and right into Evan. Remus slammed the door shut and locked it. 
“Er, do I need to worry about that?” Evan asked warily. Regulus shrugged as he furiously wiped the tears from his skin. 
A minute later, Remus unlocked the door and walked out without a care in the world. 
“Ready to go home?” He asked pleasantly, linking Regulus’s arm and walking them out. Regulus waved at Evan and managed to catch a glance of a very pale-faced Barty. He flinched when he saw Remus walking by. Regulus wondered what the sweet, kind Remus he knew had said to Barty for that kind of reaction. "Don't worry, he won't be bothering you again," Remus told him as they headed home.
