RAB fics I read 14-20 March

the salt and the sea by WizardGod I'm not usually one to read "James Potter' little sister this and that" fics, but boyyy am I glad I gave this one a chance. It's their NEWT year and Theresa (Teddy) Potter is paired up with Regulus Black for Prefect Patrols. The disinterest/disdain they feel for each other is whacked all out of balance when they fuck against a wall. Evan ships it :D

Best Friend's Brother by zeppazariel this is!!!!!!!! fantastic!!!!!! I know I've been reading a lot of Jegulus/Wolfstar identity porn lately but this one *chef kiss* stands out. Regulus and Sirius didn't talk or see each other since Sirius run away from home, and Regulus run away at 18. Regulus and Remus are coworkers at a café. Regulus starts dating James, not knowing that James is his beloathed brother's best friend. Remus starts dating Sirius (and he doesn't even know Regulus HAS a brother until later). Eventually Remus and James realise that their boyfriends are the infamous hated brothers and they're kinda in deep shit: because Black Brothers are petty, bad bitches that should not be fucked with. Mind the tags for hardcore past child abuse and other trigger warnings.

a shrike (to your sharp and glorious thorn) by nyxveuss the author announced they were rewriting this glorious story, so I re-read the whole thing for my pleasure. I'm sad to see it go but eager to see nyx's new vision of the "Regulus dies and is yeeted to his fifth year"

Dripping With Sin by ScreamingFae I! Bartender!Regulus catches Vampire!Barty's eye who simply must make him his. Doesn't matter Regulus is already dating Guitarist!James.

Silent Screams by Izumi284 semi-dead Regulus gets tossed to OotP! Also who's the white and gold cat? O.O

I see you in the stars by Bibliosmia0 James is having nightmares about Regulus drowning which makes him approach the younger Slytherin... and I mean ofc he accidentally falls in love with Regulus. Feat a really good friend Remus!

Finders Keepers by jeggie_toast a slowburn Jegulus that starts when Regulus signs up for the Quidditch team, just checked the tags and it's canon COMPLIANT :( as I said, slow burn, and pretty long, I'm currently about 1/5 way through :D

Follow In Her Paw Prints by Erica45 Regulus gets offered a helping paw... hand... from Mcgonagall :D AKA Regulus gets adopted! And fuck Dumbledore! All my homies hate Dumbledore! I hope he gets stabbed honestly

when you were mine by battlehamster our most beloved "secret high school sweetheart turned single parent and a criminal on house arrest" AU Regulus and baby Harry are SO CUTE I'm gonna die

Drugs and surgical scrubs by anauro another most beloved! Doctor!Regulus and addicts!Marauders! Slowburn Jegulus! Black Brothers drama! Battling one's demons! Platonic Bartylus subplot that makes me smile! And much more on Drugs and surgical scrubs~

My Own Private Blackpool by LadyVisenya an OC from Percy's year makes friends with a deeply traumatised man who lives in a villa in her town... turns out his name is Regulus Black. When Harry Potter claims Voldemort is back, these two set of Horcrux hunting! And accidentally fall in love but it's super slowburn and pretty organic and doesn't give me creepies despite the age difference.

The Horcrux Hunt by Keysie I can't believe there's only two chapters left of this beauty ugh. Regulus comes to the conclusion Voldy is a little bitch, goes to Dumbledore, Dumbledore hooks him up with Remus to do some Horcrux hunting; Remus wants to date Sirius but Sirius is a dummy with attachment issues; Remus and Regulus develop a friendship only two men who almost died together numerous times can develop. Their combined snark makes Dumbledore want to retire :D In short, Voldy's going d o w n ♥

As The World Caves In by reylo_is_canon Hermione/Theo Nott time travel with Regulus as the head cockblock :D

Professor Black by FaithlessBex Regulus teaches History of Magic, yay. (Quick thought, did anyone think of Astronomy!Professor Regulus? I think it'd be very sexy of him.)

Born to Run, Break the Mold by agentofreedom Regulus goes to cave and survives and ends up on Sirius' couch, time to fuck some shit right up :D

glimpses of heaven by lunahunt !!!!!! So good!!!!! After the Prank, James is all off his groove. Euphemia signs him up for a Quidditch course with Wronski, the Seeker who invented the Wronski's faint. But guess who else got enrolled in the course! Yep, you guessed right, Regulus Black! Them boys gonna be seeing each other once a week for the rest of the summer :D

Harry just can’t wait to be a big brother by anauro for battlehamster what it says on the tin! super cute dometic Jegulus ♥

Lion's Roar by Seralyn semi-dead Regulus to OotP

and we're gone by blackkat the night Sirius run away

Black Madness by LimeOfMagicLimo Regulus is Tired and when Walburga hexes Kreacher over a minor mistake, he snaps and kills her. And then he becomes and alcoholic and kills Voldemort too.

---

Strike a Pose by Anonymous okay so this is Ron Weasley/Draco Malfoy PWP but it's??? so good??? and the first time I read this pairing so I'm just going to leave it here as a treat for ppl who want to broaden their horizonts

oh right i was gonna. send an ask in. crap okay- for the writer ask game; 15, 23, 33, 35, 55, 62, and 87 (random)

(writing ask game!)

15. where do you share your writing? sigh. im tired of linking things nixxxx i just made two long posts with tons of links today /lh but that does mean the links are easily available! here’s my ao3 and here’s #paciFics.

23. how do you deal with writers block? badly. ususally by simply Not Writing. very bad practice. lately (as in the last few months) my strategy has been scoll #whump prompts or @/prompts-in-a-barrel to get myself in the mood and then write a shorter thing inspired by that. unfortunately as you can see from my ao3 i have a tendency to lose interest in longfics and once i do i just. never get back to them. sigh. hyperfixations my beloved and beloathed

33. do you start with the characters or the plot when writing? i mean, that depends. sometimes i get fic ideas that are "this character does this" (cough branzypierce) and sometimes i get fic ideas that are just "oh, this would be a cool thing to write (magic by moonlight). branzypierce fics have been All character, but also quite a bit inspired by quotes actually. bleeding out in your arms tonight literally came to my mind when i read this:

35. tell us about a character who’s very different than you who you love a whole lot

oh gosh okay well i mean most of the characters i latch on to are because i see myself in them at least a little. double life pearl, i suppose. i feel the abandoned thing a bit because i do tend to feel very lonely especially since i wouldn't say i have very many friends irl, but really she's not like me at all. then again, i've never been in a death game! but for all i joke about violence i really would never hurt anyone. somebody'd stab me and i'd apologize.

55. do you have any abandoned WIP’s? What made you abandon them? well. a question i accidentally answered! okay so i have several longfics lying abandoned (but trust me they don't leave my mind i feel guilty constantly) including scott's eternal winter, which was e1!scott turns evil and instead of corruption covering the world, it's ice/snow. i have tried to write the next at least five times and i have the outline and chapter titles i just. Can't find the motivation.

alone was pure torture (no, literally. i mean. like. that was the fic) i left it because i never really watched the dsmp enough to have a good characterization of anyone and also it just felt. i don't know. too much. people say a lot of tommy fics are torture/trauma porn or something like that and i just felt like it was too angsty.

the legend of the stag siblings i feel bad about. i just think i rushed the plot and it wasn't as well-written as it could have been and also i just. Lost motivation. if i were to pick it back up again (which i do still love the concept) i would rewrite it quite a bit.

and then on this topic i have two like 3000 word oneshots i never published. one is an owl house fic that i could probably post and just say it's incomplete, it's completely readable, i just had more plot planned and then got sucked into mcyt again. and the other is an old basically ventfic (the closest i've ever written) with o!scott. the problem was that i used it as an outlet for my emotions and that worked too well so i never finished it because by the time i hit like 3k words i wasn't in that headspace anymore and i couldn't bring myself to try to get back into it to finish the story.

oh. long answer whoops. um well they haunt me okay. im terrified magic by moonlight will join them cause so many people like it and i don't want to let them down and- okay. shush paci.

62. what’s the weirdest reason you’ve ever shipped something? because i hate my streamer. one guess as to what this is referring to. yes it's ace race x sally. i am starting to be unironically here for the narrative of the wilbur soot ace race saga god help me.

87. does your writing style change depending on the genre you write?

well, i mean i don't know? i only really write fantasy/fanfiction but i would say probably yes? like i do enjoy experimenting with different styles sometimes. my favorites have been Journal, Yin And Yang, bleeding out, and Flicker just because i tried really out-there and obvious style choices and i do really like them. you haven't read journal, yin/yang, and flicker i'm sure.

but journal was an experiment in writing first-person pov, yin/yang was one of my first times writing this sort of opposites-symbolism thing i really like where it's sort of playing with antonyms (light/dark, order/chaos) and since then i've sort of improved on that to add more metaphor/description to my fics. and i'm still SUCH a sucker for good comparisons like this. bleeding out was fun because i added the parentheses to create this growing sense of dread and tension (i really think it worked). and flicker was all about description which was a fun excercise!

on this sort of topic, my writing style wasn't that different but antlers was SO fun to write and i can't tell you why without spoiling it but i LOVE it so mucchhhhhh

#asks #nix tag #ask games #this was quite the trip #gosh i haven't thought about some of these in months
