Regulus Black fill awkward silences with embarrassing facts about Sirius

[whydousernamesevenexist]

Listen I like it when the Black brothers are portrayed as spoiled sickly Victorian children, but I personally think they wouldn't be like that.

No, they'd be the complete opposite.

Because their parents didn't pay them attention most of the time, the boys just used to sneak out into the garden. If they had some nanny, they ran away from her, if not, they just walked out.

They'd play in the mud and grass the whole day, then they'd give their dirty clothes to the house elves, and act innocent in front of their parents.

Sirius used to drink from puddles, Regulus ate a worm once or twice. They each swallowed several rocks.

They also used to eat random leaves and berries, somehow they managed to never poison themselves.

They freak their friends out by randomly picking up weeds, leaves and berries and eating them unwashed like it's completely normal, because it is for them.

The others are the more surprised by this because they still think that because Sirius and Regulus are from a very wealthy family, they are spoiled.

Someone mentioned that can you imagine if Regulus was older than Sirius?

And I just think there's a lot to unpack in this:

Imagine Regulus, who's a few years older than Sirius, who is, of course, exposed to the abuse of their parents way before sirius is born.

Regulus, who vows to always protect Sirius (mostly from his parents) even if it costs him his life.

Regulus who is so proud of Sirius when he gets to Gryffindor because that breaks the family circle (but he knows his parents are going to be extremely displeased).

Regulus who makes sure that after all the years of abuse, Sirius runs away from home and goes somewhere safe for him (the potters) .

Regulus who forces Sirius to run away before their parents force him to get the dark mark like they had done with him.

Regulus who has to cut all ties with his brother not because he doesn't love him but because he's protecting him.

Regulus who does all that research in the hope that he can defeat the dark lord and be connected with his brother once more.

Regulus who sents Sirius one more letter before he goes to the cave just telling his brother he loves him for the last time

So yeah, an older brother Regulus.

[crescenthistory]

okay so i know the sacred 28 were heavy on the “traditional” upper class teachings, such as classical music and ballroom dancing etc, which is why regulus is often hced as being a pianist. but i see your pianist and i raise you: violinist

[hazardparadox]

Sirius scared Regulus when they were kids by grabbing his foot underwater, making him afraid of water for years.

And then he drowned.

*the black brothers gossiping in french*

sirius: who's the hottest guy in school?

regulus: my james, of course.

sirius: no, you're dating him, it doesn't count-

regulus: your boyfriend.

sirius: WHAT-

*regulus looks slyly at lupin and grins*

*remus and james, who don't speak french, look at each other nervously and uncomprehendingly*

black brothers; wolfstar; jegulus;

[theblackstar04]

regulus back with selective mutism who learns to be comfortably talking with sirius as a child. when he goes to hogwarts and he isn't talking to him anymore, he goes quite. over the years, he gets comfortable enough to talk to the skittles.

imagine sirius talking to regulus again, only to find that he is no longer someone he feels safe and comfortable enough with to talk to. imagine sirius when he sees james being a person he can talk to.

[acrimeatteatime]

Regulus’ animagus form is a cat specifically so he and Sirius can call each other ‘bitch’ and ‘pussy’ and no one knows whether they’re about to stab each other or showing affection

[propussyslayer]

sirius: so what do you do for a living

remus: i hunt and kill zombies

sirius: the fuck no you don't

remus: have you ever seen one?

sirius: no?

remus: then you are fucking welcome

[spacegoblin2106]

I need this! Please tell me there’s a fic like this somewhere?!?

Sirius Black and Remus Lupin married at 20 years old and now have to take care of 10 year old Regulus Black, because Sirius took over guardian-ship when both their parents were arrested

[moonyswarmsweaters]

Regulus (whispering to Remus): Good job on the test today.

Remus (whispering back): Thanks shorty. Why are we whispering?

Regulus (still whispering): I want Sirius to think we're conspiring against him. Please look at him when you reply.

Remus (looking at Sirius): Messing with my boyfriend? Fun .

Regulus (also looking at Sirius): I'm glad you agree.

Sirius, sweating in fear: What are they talking about?

James, who overheard them but doesn't want to ruin their fun: Stabbing

[a-great-tragedy]

If Sirius hates you, he lets you know. He makes a speech and says it right in front of you, with some interesting vocabulary.

Regulus on the other hand, just gives you a look of judgement and never mentions it again

[writtenicarus]

Regulus: I'm a wanted man

James: hell yeah you are! And loved!

Regulus: no really I just killed someone

[crescenthistory]

"In theory, he technically is because when Regulus first opened up to Sirius about his anxiety of ruining things with you, the older boy made the ugliest homebound book titled How To Be A Good Boyfriend When Your Parents Fucked You Up Real Bad." I CACKLED, THAT IS SO SIRUS CODED, HELP-

LMAOOOO i must admit i was giggling a bit at that

but yeah that’s crescenthistory canon now, regulus was so scared of losing the best thing that has happened to him and despite any tensions they might be working through, he knows no one understands that like sirius. they were broken by the same home, yet sirius seems to have built a new one just fine.

sirius gives him a big bro hug and talks him down and plays it super cool (he thinks) — but the second reg leaves he runs to remus like babeihavenoideawhattodoijustfakeditomgomg, completely spiralling because it was not just fine whatsoever!

remus then has to talk sirius down. as soon as he’s calm enough he goes into full hyperfixation mood to make the handbook for reg:

“pads, i don’t think that’s necessary—”

“hand me the glue gun moons. now.”

10 things only James Potter knew about Regulus Black

1) In July 1976, he came to the Potters through their floo together with unconscious Sirius. He left again before Effie and Monty came.

2) After his brother got away from home, he continued to secretly check on him.

3) He threatened Snape into not spreading the information about Remus being a werewolf.

4) He hexed another Slytherin for insulting Pandora.

5) He got punished for it by his mother. That was the second time he came through the Potters's floo.

6) He spent most of his nights at Hogwarts in the astronomy tower.

7) Regulus had violent nightmares that left him shaking. Sometimes, the shakes didn't stop for hours.

8) His touch was like the ocean - engulfing, gentle, but also powerful.

9) Before he left for the cave, he obliviated James in his sleep.

10) The obliviate didn't work.
