Boys
for @jegulus-microfic's prompt, new (504 words)
i swear i tried to keep this under 500 words but i couldn't quite make it- anyway i'm really proud of this one and i really like it, hope you do too! welcome to the mind of little 12 year old james (in this one he's gay rather than pan how i usually hc him!) CW for internalized homophobia
James isn’t sure what to think right now. He’s never felt this way before, it’s new. Ever since he was eleven (so, okay, only like a year and a half, but still!) he’s known he's in love with Lily Evans. But now he isn’t sure. Maybe that feeling wasn’t love. Maybe he just really wants to be Lily’s friend and everybody told him because she’s a girl that should mean he likes her.
But this feeling right now, this is different, this might be love. But that’s impossible. It doesn’t make any sense that when he looks at this person his stomach does a weird swoopy thing. Or that his throat closes up just slightly. That he isn’t quite sure what to say but he just has this pull to get close to them and never let go. It doesn’t make sense… because this person is a boy.
It’s not possible for a boy to love a boy. At least that’s what James thought. So why does he feel like this? The second Regulus stepped into the Great Hall at the start of James’ second year, all he could think was noticemenoticemenoticeme. When they started actually talking, that feeling only grew stronger and stronger. He doesn’t want Regulus to notice him anymore, he needs it.
These are the spiralling thoughts that lead him to sitting crouched against the wall of the Astronomy Tower after curfew, silently crying into the sleeve of his robes. He freezes in panic when he hears quiet footsteps ascending the stairs, he could get in serious trouble for being up here so late. His heart doesn’t slow its hammering when he sees it isn’t a prefect at all, but Regulus Black himself. Regulus looks just as startled when he sees James, but seems to soften immediately, after a moment, presumably after noticing James is crying.
He glides over to where James is sitting, eternally graceful, and slumps against the wall beside him. James isn’t really sure what to do in this situation, and ends up doing the last thing he wanted.
“Doyouthinkit’swrongifaboylikesanotherboy?” he murmurs all in one breath. Regulus looks surprised and James immediately feels his heart sink. He’s weird, he’s an outcast, this isn’t normal. Of course Regulus would feel the same.
“No,” Regulus whispers. Now it’s James’ turn to be surprised.
“No?” he asks, daring to look into Regulus’ eyes. He looks scared too. Regulus shakes his head.
“You’re not alone,” he says. James feels a huge weight lift off of his shoulders at those words. He didn’t realise how long he’d been needing to hear them. You’re not alone. Other people are like you. James might even dare to guess that Regulus is one of them.
“Oh,” James breathes, wiping a few tears away from his eyes. Regulus smiles weakly.
“We just have to stick together,” he says. Something about Regulus saying those words makes all the worry from James’ body go away. That’s the moment he knows he truly is in love, but that it’s okay.

TURTLE SONA TIME!!!!!!
Tumblr media
I made the idea a while back but now they're here :)
Idk their name, but I just imagine them as another turtle brother because I think that's funny
His markings are inspired by Rise Mikey so in Rise He's probably the same species as Mikey idk
maybe they have the same turtle mother idk LOL
I didn't draw his eyes in this but they're a deep red kinda i don't remember atm ooo
They have absolutely no self-preservation skills and constantly gets into silly fights with everyone, normally losing against his brothers, because he's quite weak but very silly, it's always fun to duel with the silly little menace who seems to have confetti on them at all times <3
Idk what I want their weapon to be(is it weird that I think it'd be a mace?)
I think he'd be able to pull out fake guns that shoot out confetti and it confuses his 'victims' ehehehehehehehehe
very bubbly and has an obsession with bunnies(of course) which is the reason his mask looks like this
I'm never gonna be able to draw the length of those mask tails the same way ever and I think that should be canon to him because he's silly
I think that they'd mostly be "seen" with Mikey, because they're probably very similar(at least in 2012 and Rise, idk about the others eeee)
I like thinking of my "oc's" as characters within the story and how they'd be seen by the audience if they were actually real so if how I'm talking about him confuses you, ima real sorry :P
anyways
I feel like they'd be headcanoned as trans in every version and He'd be very Autism and ADHD Coded(They're me but turtle, what'd you expect :D )
I think they'd be more on the comedy side and they probably didn't fit well into the vibe of the more serious versions and got a overhaul on some(but because he's an OC, y'know, he stays the same to mmmeeee <3 <3 :3 )
He probably likes wearing cloths and is probably seen in hoodies and stuff despite certain versions of the brothers almost never wearing cloths Lol (kinda idk i'm bad at this bbrghvgfrihfbggfgfbkjdsjlewijds)
He gets pulled by his mask tails constantly if he's getting to excited(in my mind it'd mostly be in the 2012 version oooo) and there's probably a scene in every version where he gets stuck because of how long the mask tails are, maybe by a weapon, the tails get stabbed to a wall and he struggles like a rabid cat
I imagine the tails are actually much longer in the Rise version btw I think it's funny
He crawls on all four like a spider?? he just in general is comfortable on all fours, mostly when they were a child tho
Writing these is so fun <3
You'll probably see more of him again, maybe I'll figure out their name one day :D lol
