#conan gray is black brothers coded

[d3adgayw1zzyr3ad3r]

"Holidays" by Conan Gray, but it's the childhood friendship (and maybe more) of Evan, Barty, and Regulus as they're forced to go home over holiday break at Hogwarts in 7th year.

“Winner is Sirius” NO!! Winner is Regulus after Sirius left.

[glitchedcrows]

Honestly just the entire song is black brothers coded!

My father never talked a lot, he just took a walk around the block. ‘Til his anger took ahold of him, and then he’d hit

Walburga and Orions a+ parenting

I say they’re just the ones who gave me life, but I truly am my parents’ child

Sirius getting sorted into gryffindor and trying to do everything he can to distance himself from the black name. But then he’ll do something without thinking and realize that no matter how hard he tried to move on they’ve left an impression on his life. And sometimes when he lashes out into in a way that’s not dissimilar to his parents. Especially when it involves regulus. Regulus on the other hand follows their rules and does as he’s told however deep inside he resents them for making Sirius leave more than he hates Sirius for leaving. However he has nowhere to go so he keeps playing the part and living up to his parents expectations of him…

It’s hard to put it into words, HOW THE HOLIDAYS WILL ALWAYS HURT

This line is so black brothers coded it’s not even funny! It was during the holidays that Sirius finally got out. No matter how great the potters are to him he’ll never be able to celebrate the holidays without thinking about the brother he had to leave behind. He can’t not think about the people who were supposed to be his parents, who were supposed to care about him. They hurt him to the point where he had no choice but to leave. Regulus can’t celebrate the holidays without thinking about his brother who left him in that house with the “parents” who are now hurting him if he doesn’t do everything they tell him to. He can’t help but wonder what it’s like for Sirius and why he’s not coming back to get him.

And wonder what I did to do serve this, how could you hurt a little kid?

Again with Walburga and Orions A+ parenting. They were supposed to be their parents and yet they constantly hurt them. Going so far as to use unforgivable curses. Yes Sirius was rebellious and didn’t listen but he still wonders how they could go that far with hurting their own child. Regulus had to stand by and watch it happen not being able to stop them from hurting his brother.

I can’t forget, I can’t forgive you

I know you did this one but I had more thoughts 😅 Along with the last line this applies to how regulus feels about Sirius leaving. Because he doesn’t know what he did to deserve being left behind. He was just a kid! He wasn’t brave enough to leave and then he was alone with nowhere to go. He’ll never forget how betrayed he felt when Sirius left, even tho he knows deep down that it’s not actually Sirius’ fault. He still can’t help but blame him and I don’t think he properly forgives him until the end. Sirius on the other hand CAN understand why Regulus stayed. However what he can’t understand is how he could do all the things he did after Sirius left. THAT’S what he can’t forgive regulus for. Not the staying but getting the mark and working with the death eaters.

‘Cause now I’m scared everyone I love will leave

You already did this line too but I wanted to add to it. Not only do they have attachments issues but they both struggle to accept affection. At first when Sirius realized that Remus likes him back he doesn’t know how to accept it because he doesn’t think he deserves it. He doesn’t think he’s worth loving because the people who were supposed to love and care for him went and did the opposite. Regulus has the same struggle but where Sirius had the Potters and the marauders to teach him how to accept love and accretion Regulus had no one (ok no he had the skittles but the point is it was much harder for him)

Oh, all that I did to try to undo it, all of my pain and all your excuses

This goes very closely with the last one and how hard Sirius worked to undo all the damage his parents did to him. He worked so fucking hard to learn to love and be loved in a healthy way. I’m the beginning both brothers thought that the way their parents acted was normal, until they started school and learned that your parents aren’t supposed to hurt you. They both had to learn that love isn’t supposed to hurt that way.

All of my past, I tried to erase it

Sirius really did work hard to move on from that house. Trying to erase it all from both his memories and association. He will always be a black but he did everything he could to prove he was nothing like the rest of them. Regulus tried too, in the end. He tried but he could never erase all the things he did before he made it that far.

Might share a face and share a last name, but (We are not the same)

Adding to this one too! Because I don’t think this only applies to their parents. This applies to them as brothers too. Especially from Sirius’ pov. When he looks at his brother he sees a younger version of himself. One that didn’t rebel but who did what he was told and was deserving of actual love and affection from their parents (he was probably a little blinded by this and didn’t see regulus as suffering all the time). Sirius found it hard to look at his brother and see the perfect black heir knowing it was supposed to be him but he could never live up to that. Regulus looks at his brother and sees something who got out, someone who left him. Sort of the vibe of that lyric from the exit - Conan gray that goes “we’ve got matching wounds, but mines still black and bruised, and yours is perfectly fine.” Regulus sees what he could have had if he left too but he wasn’t strong enough. He sees a reflection of what could have been but what he’ll never get.

That got wayyyyy longer than I meant it too but I think about this every time I listen to family line (which is a lot). Some of this is probably more headcanons than anything but oh well…

“family line” by conan gray represents the black brothers entirely. let me elaborate.

scattered ‘cross my family line, i’m so good at telling lies

they both became so good at hiding their emotions from their parents and others, it just manifested in a different way for each of them. sirius became more brash and outspoken, playing himself off as a boisterous person who was always happy and making jokes, but was hurting. regulus became closed off and sequestered himself to the ideals and influences of those around him, but in the end still fooled those around him because he became so good at lying.

god, I have my father's eyes, but my sister's when I cry

this but esp w/ trans reg hc. sirius never really getting a chance to know regulus. both of them hating what they see in the mirror because as much as they try to remove themselves from their family they share physical similarities that aren’t easily changed. sirius can grow his hair, but he’ll always have his fathers eyes. regulus can try to adjust his mannerisms, but he’ll always have his mothers high cheekbones. when they see themselves in the mirror on a particularly bad day it’s all they can see and it just makes everything worse.

i was a kid but i wasn’t clueless, someone who loves you wouldn’t do this

self-explanatory. they were only kids when they were being put through literal hell, having unforgivables used against them and food withheld when they were less than perfect. it’s so normalized for them that when they get to school and talk about it like it’s the most normal thing in the world, everyone else is like “what the fuck?” and they’re like. oh. wait. this isn’t normal.

i can’t forget i can’t forgive, ‘cause now i’m scared that everyone i love will leave me

sirius found that love and security in remus as a lover and james as a brother, but regulus never didn’t have that security after sirius left.

might share a face and share a last name, but we are not the same

regulus feeling resentment towards sirius for leaving and sirius feeling resentment towards regulus for staying and conforming to their parents. they might look very similar and have the black family name, but their upbringing’s and places in the family drastically changed their personalities and survival instincts and self-preservation reactions. sirius had to get out because staying was killing him, so he left in self-preservation because he had james, which made regulus resent sirius. regulus didn’t have a place to go to, so his self-preservation tactic was to double down and become the ideal son his parents wanted in sirius, which made sirius resent regulus.

The song Found Heaven by Conan Gray is so black brothers coded

“Your heart is breaking as you leave that door

You never meant to start this holy war

But you're trapped, pack your bags

Don't look back”

Like how is this not about Sirius Black?

[theirishconstellations]

conan gray after single handedly feeding the marauders fandom with yet another black brothers coded song.

[stars-and-leather]

Ooohhh omg I feel like Jigsaws more Sirius coded

Like the line "I'd be more like my sister," is such a Sirius thinking about how their parents prefer Regulus imo

Family Line by Conan Gray is Regulus coded or Sirius Coded???

I'd say more Sirius coded, but like...it's not NOT Regulus coded, you know?

Okokokok HI

So I don't really know how to go about asking this, but I was wondering if you'd be alright with me bookbinding "I swore eyes were made to cry"

It's a ship I love and based on the premise I think I'll love it tbh I haven't read it yet, but I'm going to no matter your answer, I wanted to make sure I had author consent tho because I think you're cool!!

Plus, ykw.. Alley Rose... conan gray.. so perfect! (Conan Gray's music is soooo black brothers coded, but even outside of that, he's a phenomenal artist)

ISEWMTC just happens to be a length I'm looking for to bind, and I saw you completed it recently. If I did bind it, I would never EVER sell it. It'd just be for me!!

Completely okay whatever you say, I respect your decision, I too, am a fic writer, though you're a but further in your writing journey than I, haha

Anyways, thanks for your time, much respect! :))

Ps if you don't want to post this ask you can totally dm me!

winner by conan gray is such a black brothers coded song

[d3adgayw1zzyr3ad3r]

"Winner" by Conan Gray but it's Sirius' final snap at everyone on Voldemort's side, particularly Walburga and Orion, after Regulus' death.

'I was (we were) just trying to survive your chaos, and look at how it ended'

...yeah.

[yourlocalbadgerscales]

”’Family Line’ is Regulus Black and ‘Winner’ is Sirius Black” and both are about Walburga Black”

That’s what I thought at first. I mean, the whole ‘Found Heaven’ album gives off so much Sirius vibes, right? And ‘Winner’ is more bitter, more angry, while ‘Family Line’ is just so tragic. Sirius and Regulus, I thougt.

But I don’t know anymore.

All the lyrics in ‘Family Line’ is just genuinely Black brothers coded. Please analyse them, anyone, and tell me how you feel about them. Which sibling is each and every sentence about? But I’ll move on to ‘Winner’ for now. “I packed my bags at fourteen, I hadn’t planned on leaving, but you haven’t been back home for days”

That is so Sirius leaving Grimmauld Place, right? But the last part? “But you haven’t been back home for days”. I feel like it’s more Regulus to Sirius there. But maybe not, since we later learn who “you” actually is. Walburga of course.

Or is it? Sirius, or Walburga? Who is it actually about, if we assume that it’s Regulus singing?

“Yet you have the nerve to miss me” Did Walburga really “miss” her sons? Or perhaps… it’s about Sirius leaving and then trying to mend his and Regulus’s broken relationship.

Please let me know if I should make a longer post about this!

[good-oldfashioned-lover]

Why is Superache by Conan Gray the most Black Brothers coded to have ever Black Brothers code?

[marauders-but-chaotix]

Conan Gray is sooo Black Brothers coded in so many ways.

[justanothershitpost]

Family Line by Conan Gray is so black brothers coded
