“colored lights” - 25 Days of Jegumas - Day 11 - @noblehouseofgay

“James. Can we please go home?” Regulus asks for what feels like the hundredth time.

They’re in a neighborhood in the town over that aways has extravagantly decorated houses and they don’t mind if people come and drive around to look at them. And James absolutely loves it.

It’s a decent-sized neighborhood and James likes to drive through a few times so he can thoroughly appreciate everything. So, they’ve been here a few hours and Regulus is more than ready to go home.    

“They’re just so amazing!” James says with childlike excitement.

“Yes, I agree, but—”

“All the colored lights and incredible decorations!” James continues like he didn’t even hear Regulus.

“I know, they’re—”

“You have to at least acknowledge the effort that goes into them!” Yeah, James is not hearing a word Regulus is saying.

“I do. But it’s just that—”

“I mean, the hours and days they must spend to get everything just perfect! And did you see? Some of the houses even go together, so they have to work with their neighbors. We don’t even like our neighbors! Can you imagine doing something like this with them!?”

“No, I can’t. But still, we should—”

“And how great is it that they let people come see them? They don’t have to do that and it’s—"  

“James!” James startles and slows the car down to look at Regulus. “Yes. The houses are amazing, and the lights are incredible. And I appreciate their efforts and the fact that they let us drive around.” Regulus tells him. “But the lights have been off for over an hour, and I don’t think these wonderful people will appreciate a creepy car driving around their neighborhood staring at their homes at one in the morning.”

James pouts for a moment but eventually he huffs, “Fine.” And he finally starts driving out of the neighborhood.

“Oh, don’t pout.” Regulus says, soothingly. “You’ll come back another day when the lights are still on.”

“You’ll come with me?”  

“You’ll bring Sirius.”

[resident-gay-bitch]

Jilypad happens because the three of them are out fighting in the war and a big explosion happens and they get separated and are all so afraid they’ve lost eachother that when they finally all get home to realise the others are there too James and lilys first instincts are to kiss sirius and vice versa. Then they all step back like oopsie wtf we just kissed our best friend…

And then they fuck nasty style about it all through the night and half of the next morning, then they go to have bunch in Jilys kitchen and can’t stop touching eachother whilst they all cook and they feed eachother then abandon their meal halfway through to fuck nasty again.

Then a week or so later Lily finds out she’s pregnant and they Freak Out because her and James haven’t been fucking as much lately with all the heavy moods they’ve been in from the war going on, so they immediately think she’s pregnant from That Night and they know any ejactjaltiown that happened near Lilys vag was done by Sirius and Sirius only and so they’re like Omg Sirius knocked Lily up!

Lilys stressed because her husbands best friend knocked her up, Sirius is terrified because he does Not want to pass on his terrible family line and was sure he was going to end it and doesn’t know if he’s ready to be a dad yet. James is over the moon excited because his best friend just knocked up his wife and they’re all gonna be a family!!! And their baby is gonna look like the girl he’s in love with And the boy he’s in love with and he’s so happy about it.

And then they find out it was actually James that knocked her up and then they’re all kinda…. Sad. Because they had plans starting, for the three of them to raise this kid together, one big happy family, two dads and one amazing mum.

But they decide to do it anyway. James and Lily beg Sirius to move in with them and be their boyfriend, and Sirius becomes godfather to Harry but he’s also Harry’s second dad, which he’s stoked about because he gets to be a dad without passing on his shitty bloodline and if he’s bad at his job he knows James is gonna be a brilliant dad so Harry’s garenteed to turn out fine!

i feel weirdly emotional and maternal about baby harry in my tomodachi life game

[inthe-echo]

Harry did not, in fact, get enough love

[bythepen98]

Doodles || Tomarry || Childhood friends/Growing Up Together au

(Ignore the not-so-time-period-accurate outfits)

Think of this as a timetravel au where Harry accidentally gets sent back to the past in Wool's orphanage at a young enough age where he barely notices the changes caused by the time displacement and thus grows up nonethewiser to his destiny as the Chosen One. Even when, objectively, his life at the orphanage could be considered worse considering the growing lack of food, his environment's state of decay and overall unrest happening outside the orphanage's walls, something about his situation felt right(?).

He'd always felt disconnected and out of place based on the few memories he still had from living with the Dursleys but now, it felt like he was home in a way. Like something finally clicked in his brain, his soul.

His instant connection to Tom helped cement that fact. It wasn't easy at first because the pull they felt when they first met was so strong that it scared Harry shtless and Tom, already half-full of resentment by this point, was horrified feeling anything to anyone that wasn't disgust. In the end, it didn't take long for them to meet halfway since they were still children and curiosity at the connection lured them in like candy; Harry wanted a special friend of his own and Tom convinced himself that Harry was worth his time because there was no way anyone ordinary could elicit such a soul deep response from him.

Tom has a mean streak and is more bloodthirsty than his charming facade would show but is honest about it with Harry. Although he doesn't have much to his name, Tom is serious about his self-imposed role as Harry's provider, giving him gifts (from the money he steals) during his birthdays and keeping him as warm and well fed as possible (by bullying the other kids into surrendering their share).

Sometimes, Tom....worries.....that his methods would eventually drive Harry - who has such an inherent goodness in him, so often kind to people who don't deserve it - away but what he fails to understand is that Harry's love and loyalty to the first friend he's ever made trumps any kindness he has for others. He'll never like needless violence and won't react if he was being targeted but all bets are off if he even a catches a whiff of plots against Tom. If he has to help hide a body or two in the future so that they won't be separated by something as inconvenient as jail or the law, then that's nobody's business but his own.

P.S. This Harry will probably go to Hufflepuff instead of Slytherin like in other fics. It just feels right. Probably should've drawn him wearing a yellow tie but only just got the idea as I'm typing this. Tom would rather eat slugs than go to the Hufflepuff common room but he's more than willing to entertain Harry at the Slytherin common room at every available chance. They have their own seat there and everything.

P.P.S. They also co adopt a tiny(??) baby snake when they realize they can both speak parseltongue and bring him along to hogwarts. Imagine being parents at the big old age of 10 to a possibly magical snake that may or may not grow past nagini-level size.

P.P.P.S. Future power couple in the making. Didn't think that far ahead whether I wanted Tom to go the political route or Dark Lord Voldemort style minus the horcruxes. Don't ask for me the details, just know that with Harry's help, Tom finds a way to prolong their lives without the consequences that come with using horcruxes. They may or may not discover that Harry is in fact a horcrux of Tom already but will never get the answer as to how it happened. Harry worries but Tom just chocks it up as the universe's way of paying him back for his shtty pre-Harry childhood. Ironically the type to believe in soulmates and destiny while Harry is a bit more skeptical on that front.

Alternatively, they could also decide not to do anything too significant -politically- at all and instead retire to the country side while doing research on as many branches of magic as they can. A bit laughable because of Tom's world altering ambitions and Harry's indulgent, enabling behavior but at the same time, anything's possible.

Prompt 28 - Satisfied

@jegulus-microfic February 28, Word count 269

Previous part First part

“All those fireworks I gave you and not a single one hit Snape?!” Sirius exclaimed as they slowly walked out of the Great Hall after finishing their meals, so they didn’t gain attention.

“It wasn’t about attacking Slytherin,” James said as he looped around a group of Hufflepuffs standing in the middle of the entrance hall swapping chocolate frog cards.

“It was about his sweet little Regulus. Poor little baby Black was getting bullied by his little friends and big, brave James had to save him.” Remus stuck his lower lip out in a pout that had Sirius jumping up to catch it between his teeth. 

Their affection towards each other had James and Peter discreetly going their own way. 

“Do you mind if I go find Liz?” Peter asked, looking longingly at the fifth floor landing high above them. 

“Yeah sure,” James chuckled fondly. Peter was spending more and more time away from their little group, but James supposed that was what growing up was like. The only two spending more and more time in their dorm room were Sirius and Remus for obvious reasons. James himself thought more about Regulus than he did on coming up with their next prank. 

Thinking about Regulus, he took the Marauders map out of his pocket and scanned the map as the black line spread across the scruffy parchment. He spotted him quickly. Regulus was in one of the unused Potions classrooms. 

Satisfied he knew where he was going, he put the map in his pocket and turned around to walk back towards the entrance hall and down to the dungeons.

Hinny 🍂 🍃- AU where Hinny grew up together and everyone lived

Lily gazed out the window as she took a sip of her tea. It had been over an hour since Harry whispered into his godfather’s ear and dragged him outside to rummaged through the leaves. Every so often Sirius would pick up a leaf and show it to him, and Harry would dramatically slap his forehead before explaining something to him. Sirius rolled his eyes, dropped the leaf, raised his hands in defeat, and continued rummaging through the leaves again.

“What is he looking for?” Marlene asked.

“I have no idea,” she replied, shaking her head.

She opened the back door to let him know the Weasley’s would be over any second and smirked when her son’s ears perked up as he came bolting into the house with a handful of leaves in his hand. He eagerly waited in front of the fireplace and kept glancing back and forth between the clock and fireplace while he hid the leaves behind his back. She gave him a curious look, but before she could question him, a herd of redheads dashed through the floo in pairs.

Once they all greeted each other and the chaos had somewhat settled down, James nudged her and pointed to the corner of the living room where their son was blushing while talking to the youngest Weasley. She too had something hidden behind her back. They counted to three and presented each other with a handful of leaves before breaking into a fit of giggles. The only difference between their piles was that Harry’s was an assortment of reds and browns, while Ginny’s were green.

Harry gently picked up an orangey red leaf from his pile and placed it by Ginny’s hair and said, "See, it’s the same color," before picking up a brown leaf and placing it beside her eyes and saying, “And this one too!” Clearly pleased with himself.

Ginny giggled as she placed her pile of green leaves on the table, tilted Harry’s head down slightly, carefully pushed his glasses into his hair, and tapped her chin as she compared each green leaf to his eyes.

Lily tired not to laugh as Harry’s face got increasingly red and his eyes widened the closer she got to him. “This one!” She squealed and jumped up excitedly.

Ron huffed loudly in frustration, “Can we finally go play Quidditch now?”

Ginny rolled her eyes at her brother before returning Harry’s glasses to his nose and smiling sweetly at him as they placed the three leaves on the opposite side of the table. Ginny got a mischievous look in her eyes as she tugged Harry’s hand, sprinting towards the door, and yelled behind her, “Last one outside has to wear Aunt Muriel’s knickers for a whole day!”

“HEY! I'M NOT DOING THAT AGAIN!” Ron yelled as he ran behind them. His legs were longer, but those two were quick on their feet, weaving through everyone and spirting out the door.

Sirius snorted and shook his head as he placed his arm around James’ shoulder. “And I thought you had it bad, Prongs. At least your son has more game than you, and he’s far more handsome. Hmm he must get it from his godfather.”

“OI! I have plenty of game, and the ladies find me plenty handsome, okay. Just the other day, Bathilda Bagshot, Griselda Marchbanks, AND Augusta Longbottom called me a sight for sore eyes. Tell him, Lily!” James argued. Lily chose that moment to quickly slip out into the backyard with Marlene and the rest of the Weasleys, playing Quidditch sounded far more appealing than dealing with those two.

Here's to never growing up || Jegulus

James Potter x Regulus Black - In which the Marauders are a group of crime fighting vigilantes.

Basically Marauders in the DCU!

Blog masterlist | Fic masterlist

1.4k words!

A/N - James has a little brother because I said so :3

BRIEF MENTION OF SKIPPING MEALS (none of the characters are, just a joke made)

Two days later, the Justice League was back. 

Kind of. 

They were all reduced to just their civilian forms.

Wonder Woman was now half of what she was before. Less wonder and more woman. More the half part of half god.

Aquaman was just a guy now. At least he smelt a bit less like the ocean now. Just a bit.

You get the picture. The Justice League? Basically a group of middle aged parents at book club.

Although, that’s basically how James saw them anyway.

The worst bit? None of them could remember during the time they were taken. Fleamont Potter had said there was just a big gap in his memory, one minute he had his powers, next he was reduced to a normal man.

James was happy, of course. His father was back. Superman was back… well, more like Fleamont Potter was back. But his dad was back nonetheless.

The same couldn’t be said for Sirius and Regulus, however. Because while You-Know-Who no longer had the League, he still had Orion. Batman was gone. Reason being he’s the only one in the League without powers. That was easy enough to figure out.

Wonder Woman is half-god. Aquaman is Atlantean. The Flash is, well, fast. Green Lantern has his ring. Superman is quite literally an alien, super man.

But Batman?

Orion Black operated with pure intelligence, strength and technology. 

You can’t weaken a man with nothing to weaken.

Which is how both boys ended up staying on the Potter’s farm with James and his family.

“This French toast is…  amazing,” Sirius said, his voice muffled from his mouth being full of food as he proceeded to shovel more into his mouth. Regulus grimaced at the sight. He was used to Sirius’… special table manners but he could at least try to tone it down in the presence of James’ parents who were kind enough to let the brothers stay with them. But he was right, the toast was delicious. Probably even better than Kreacher’s.

“Seriously, Effie, what do you put in here?” Sirius groaned with pleasure. Effie just laughed, her face lighting up as she looked at the boys.

“Just some extra love,” she smiled.

“She means brown sugar and vanilla extract,” James’ father, Fleamont, or Monty, as he insisted, chimed in, earning him a whack on the back of his head from Effie.

It was strange. Regulus was never one to trust people easily but as soon as he stepped foot into the Potter’s home and was engulfed in hugs, his mind was at ease. There was something about Effie’s smile lines and Fleamont’s wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, like permanent etches of the happiness and love in the small family. Of course, Regulus had met Monty dozens of times before, him being his own father’s closest confidant in the Justice League, but he’d always assumed the happiness was a stunt, but now, being in his home, Regulus saw the Potter’s were made with love. 

There was something that bothered Regulus, however; James was the spitting image of his father. Now the same could be said for Regulus, Sirius and Orion, but James and Fleamont were so similar it bordered on uncanny. It was as like seeing a peek into James’ future when looking at Fleamont. In all honesty, it freaked Regulus out a bit.

Okay, a lot. It freaked him out a lot.

“James, where is your brother?” Effie frowned, plating a stack of toast, presumably for her other son.

“Dunno,” James mumbled, shovelling food into his mouth as well. Gods, no wonder he and Sirius got along so well; they’re both idiots.

“Well, will you go look for him?” Effie sighed in exasperation, but Regulus caught the smile tugging at the corner of her lips. Even when frustrated with her son, Euphemia Potter could not hide her adoration for him. It made Regulus somewhat jealous.

“But, I’m so hungry, mama,” James groaned around his fork. 

“Then go be hungry while looking for your brother,” Monty flicked James’ forehead, making the boy grunt in annoyance.

“Fine,” James relented, rubbing his forehead, dramatically. He shoved one more big bite of toast into his mouth, as if in defiance of his parents’ words before shuffling out the room.

Silence fell upon the table, the only sound was the utensil’s scraping on everyone’s plates.

“So, Sirius,” Monty began. “James said you’re making a plan for the Marauders to help us get our powers back. And get your father back.”

Sirius tightened his grip on his fork and Regulus said up slightly straighter, peering at the interaction over the rim of the glass he was sipping from. 

“Don’t stress him, Monty,” Effie said gently, softly rubbing the back of Sirius’ neck as she sat next to him.

“No, no, it’s okay,” Sirius cleared his throat, smiling at Effie. “Yeah, I am. I don’t really know what to do, but I’ll figure it out. I think. I just want my…,” Sirius trailed off and looked at Regulus, “…our dad back.”

Monty just gave a nod. “And you, Regulus?” the older man looked at him intensely, like he expected Regulus to be helping.

The gaze made Regulus’ face run warm. “I, yeah, I’m helping, I s’pose.”

“I let him join the team. Temporarily,” Sirius explained.

“Yes, temporarily,” Regulus said through gritted teeth. Why did it have to be temporary? It’s like Sirius wanted him out before he could even prove himself.

“Temporarily?” Monty repeated. “I think Regulus is ready to join the team, Sirius.”

Regulus couldn’t help but feel a sense of pride, his face going even warmer than before. He just hoped that his face wasn’t too red.

Why am I so embarrassed? Regulus thought to himself.

He had only ever met Monty a handful of times and he knew Sirius respected him, so Monty saying he was ready had to mean something, right? Regulus just hoped it would let Sirius see that he was ready for a real mission. And not like now, just because he had to.

“But what do I know, huh?” Monty smiled. The way he said it, Regulus could hear it as a jab at Sirius. Almost like he was waiting for the older boy to argue.

Regulus watched his brother with an intense gaze as he began to speak before he was cut off by Effie.

“Are you alright, Regulus, dear, your face is awfully red!” Effie said, walking over to feel his face.

Shit!

“Um, yes, I-,” Regulus began before he was also promptly cut off by James this time.

Thank gods for that. How do I explain that I find her husband attractive?!

“I found him!” he called from the hallway. “He was hiding in his cubby outside,” James snorted, coming into view with a small boy sitting on his shoulders.

Unlike James, this boy was the perfect blend of Effie and Monty. Monty’s curls, Effie’s smile lines, Monty’s mischievous glint in his eyes, Effie’s bump on his nose. James could be Monty’s twin whereas this boy was so clearly their child.

“Incoming!”  James exclaimed as he gently lowered his brother onto a chair next to Monty, making a landing noise as he settled him down. The small boy smiled, revealing a missing front tooth, adding to his already adorable charm.

“This is Jon,” Monty said, proudly as James ruffled his brother’s hair. “Jon, this is Regulus, he’s Uncle Monty’s other son, Sirius’ brother.”

Right, of course Sirius had met the boy before.

Jon waved shyly before his big eyes travelled to the large stack of food in front him, which he promptly began to scarf down.

Ah, a family trait, Regulus thought, biting back a smile. Though it’s significantly less annoying when Jon does it.

“Gosh, these boys eat like they’re skipping meals,” Effie laughed. It reminded Regulus of music, the way she laughed.

The same way James laughed.

“Kryptonian stomach’s are never full, love, you know this,” Monty smiled, his eyes crinkling behind his glasses.

“Oh, I know,” Effie grinned cheekily at her own innuendo.

James and Sirius groaned as Regulus looked down at his lap in embarrassment. Jon simply continued eating, unaware of his mother’s implication.

“And I’m done with that,” James grimaced, pushing his plate away.

“Ditto,” Sirius mirrored his friend, earning laughs from the Potters.

“Your parents are in love, Jamie, be grateful,” Effie chided, playfully, kissing Monty’s cheek.

The sight made Regulus feel jealous of James.

James Potter and his perfect family.

James and baby Harry circa 1980

[iamthedamndonutdrawcat]

I am unfortunately going to need more dilf james potter hcs for my uh...health 😇😇

ur at the james dilf pharmacy rn. this turned more into a happy potter family hc thing

- dad james IS a dilf!! he def gets flirted with by harry's friends when they're teenagers but he either doesn't pick up on it (he's so talkative and will chat w anyone and not notice if someone shows specific interest in talking to him) or when he does notice he's very nice about it. but he'd never reciprocate (i love whacky hcs but i cannot make older/age gap james make sense to me)

- he's just such a comfy dude! he loves family quality time! makes his family brunch, takes them on picnics and hikes and to the park and on holidays

- he's very well-liked by the community. has humor, will attend community events and do shit like manual labour to help out his neighbors or smth. brings his wife's casserole over etc

- silly man. big laugh, constantly yapping, always a showman, the world is his stage to perform on

- retired quidditch player james ❤️ james w dad bod

- very connected to his inner child and eager to go on silly side quests. one night he comes home from wherever and sees that a local farmer's cow has born calves, so he snatches harry out of bed and takes him on a midnight trip to greet the baby cow. he wants harry to see the world and experience all the joys

- lets harry badger him into anyyythinggggg. in 1993 harry wants to see nirvana desperately. he won't stop talking about it, brings it up during every single conversation and terrorizes the house with the music on full volume. and finally james breaks and gets him tickets to a gig in america (i luv spoiled harry bc he grew up loved)

- lily gets v annoyed with james about this

- completely unrelated: lily pegs james 100%

- milf lily x dilf james. they are SO unbothered by people's opinion that middle aged couples shouldn't act crazy about each other. they freak it regularly and crazily.

- jily are the happy parents harry's friends look up to in awe. their house is a safe place

- ummmm. OBVIOUSLY sirius visits like every other day and they're dilfs together and they ride sirius' bike with harry! jilypad is also def happening & it gets to a point where family friends get suspicious but noone dares to ask 💜

[sapphic-agent]

The wildest part of Harry Potter was Hermione pointing out the obvious flaws and inequality in their society and everyone- including her best friends- treating her like a joke for it, if not outright insinuating that she was wrong

[1doesnotsimplyhavejust1fandam]

I don’t care if it’s a little silly, I go nuts for Sirius calling Harry ‘pup’ in fics. Their relationship is my favorite canon dynamic (traumatized and oh so devoted and terrible communication skills ughhh), and I think that Harry just desperately needed an adult to belong to. It could’ve been Sirius, and I adore that being reflected in fic through the ‘pup’ nickname. Yeah, that’s Sirius’ godson, that’s his favorite kid, and it’s so much easier for two emotionally stunted characters to express their love through nicknames instead of just saying the words. We only see Harry’s POV, and he’s ~aware~ of how much Sirius loves him (keeping secrets from Sirius so his godfather doesn’t come to Hogwarts guns blazing gets that across real quick), but Sirius calling him ‘pup’ allows Harry to actually acknowledge Sirius’ love and devotion to being his godfather. And don’t even get me started on Sirius and my general headcanon that he called Harry ‘pup’ even before James and Lily died. That’s his best friends’ kid!!! In a friend group that literally made up childish nicknames for the Animagus/werewolf forms that they were using to constantly break the law!!! It works best when Sirius doesn’t always use it, but when he does, Harry (yes, emotionally oblivious Harry) notices that Sirius uses it.

[iamnmbr3]

Actually, I do have a question on your thoughts about the interesting relationship between Draco and Severus.

I'm not sure how much the movies got right or not but I know a common fanon theory is that Draco bonded with him as a kinda uncle/father figure? Honestly I looked back at 6 year and the only adult who actually actively seemed to notice and give a shit about Draco's deteriorating health was Snape and the way he always seemed to just expect things from Draco in such a way makes me think there's a more familial or maybe master and student (like I'm talking classic master of an art and apprentice kinda deal where they're very close and watching each other work) kinda deal.

I've always kinda agreed with this take but I don't have canon book evidence to really understand it more? Thoughts?

Interesting question. (I'm more of a book fan myself so as to how much the movies got right my personal view is - not much - despite the outstanding efforts by Tom Felton and Alan Rickman who both gave fabulous performances imho). I think the idea of Snape as a father/uncle figure to Draco is a very popular concept that is actually more fanon than canon. Certainly Snape and Draco have interacted outside school because Snape is friends with Lucius and presumably maintained that friendship even after Voldemort's first fall in preparation for resuming his duties eventually (because remember Dumbledore was certain Voldemort was not permanently destroyed, and he probably shared that information with Snape, even if he didn't explain why he was so sure).

I certainly think Snape would've therefore spent time around Draco - and professed to care about him to some degree in order to curry favour with Lucius. Of course, Lucius probably viewed Snape as an inferior (due to wealth and blood status) who he was taking under his wing (we see the start of that dynamic in the flashback in book 7 when Lucius is a Prefect). That power dynamic only started to change post book 4 as Snape rose in Voldemort's favour while Lucius fell.

I think Draco always liked Snape and considered him a family friend/acquaintance but I don't they were close enough that Draco would consider him a father figure or uncle. Especially since Draco already had a father who he looked up to and who was involved in his life (no I don't buy into the theories that Lucius was secretly Crucioing Draco over the holidays or anything like that) so I don't think he was that starved for an adult parental figure to turn to.

In book 6 Snape tries to help Draco (both due to his promise to Narcissa and because he's trying to find out Draco's plans in order to share them with Dumbledore) but Draco, despite being in a desperate situation, rebuffs him at every turn. He doesn't trust Snape and also probably resents him for rising in Voldemort's favour while his own father's fortunes have fallen.

This is just my personal read though and that doesn't mean that alternative readings or headcanons are wrong or uninteresting.

[t1oui]

i love sunkiller bc james is the type of guy you go to when someone is making you uncomfortable and barty is the type of guy you would expect to try and hit you up in a bar and not take no for an answer

[bitchy-ish]

I hate being sad abt the Marauders so todays post will be the idea I cooked up abt how Peter didn’t betray them and everyone lived!

So Sirius does in fact ask to make Peter the secret keeper for two reasons:

He’s actually amazing at keeping secrets.

Sirius is worried that his family would assume he was the secret keeper and come for him and get James and Lily’s address.

Do they think to tell anyone other than the 4 Marauders(+Lily) of this change? No. They do not.

The Order chooses Peter to be a spy in the Death Eaters because, despite how everyone thought he was weak minded and easily swayed (something that was cultivated because of the pranks), he was not but he could perception of him for the good of inside information.

So Peter has this whole alter ego story about why he chose to switch sides and he has it ready, who he isn’t expecting to run into though, was Regulus.

Regulus was forced to get the dark mark when Sirius officially left the family. He had been putting it off because he wasn’t sure he wanted it, and after getting it and being forced to be more involved he knew for sure he didn’t want to be a death eater. His issue was he didn’t know how to leave his family without just getting killed by them, he didn’t have anywhere to go and there wasn’t a way for him to contact Sirius.

So when he see’s Peter Pettigrew, one of his brother’s close friends, at a Death Eater meeting, he immediately feels like this can be an out for him.

So he goes up to Peter, and asks him about why he changed sides, and Peter rattles off his story but Regulus see’s his mouth twitch just slightly and how he was fidgeting with his fingers, and knows he’s lying. He asks to go on a walk outside with intentions on “catching him up” on what he’d have missed. This is when he tells him his whole thing and Peter takes him back to The Order’s hideout.

He told everyone what was going on, and after some veritaserum they deem him to be telling the truth and bring him into The Order.

Now onto October 31, 1981.

Peter does not sell them out !!!!!!!

This is where them not telling anyone about Peter being secret keeper backfires.

They continue to have Peter be a spy and get a lot of good information on him, but after Regulus’ disappearance the Death Eaters are suspicious and do veritaserum on Peter, where he does in fact tell Voldemort James and Lily’s address.

Of course as soon as he can he apparated back to the order and is screaming for people to get there as soon as possible and help them and that he’s sorry, and then suddenly Lily and James appear through the floo, very frazzled and scared, and James is crying but Lily is sort of shell shocked.

That night Harry is asleep in his crib and James and Lily are getting ready for bed.

Lily gets like this feeling of ‘go check on Harry!!!’ and goes into the room and see’s Voldemort over Harry’s crib.

She yells for him to get away and gets in between the two of them, begging for him to kill her instead of him.

James runs in at this point, with his wand, and before he can say anything Voldemort blasts some magic at him and knocks him out, quickly doing the same to Lily.

When he tries to kill Harry though, the same happens as in canon and the spell blasts back and kills him, all because Lily did give up her life for Harry, she just happened to not die in this instance.

So then after her and James wake up, which is only a few minutes later, they grab Harry and immediately floo away and too The Order’s hide out.

So then Harry grows up with a huge nice family who are all there for him and comfort him when he finds out about the prophecy on his name.

And (bc i love Jegulily) he gets a second dad who he loves very much, and who ends up the potions teacher at Hogwarts, along with Snape, they split the houses and somehow Gryffindor ends up in Snape’s and when Snape is bullying both Harry and Neville, Lily and Alice (who didn’t get tortured bc of some sort of butterfly affect) are livid and send howlers to Dumbledore and get the teachers to be switched.

The first two years do still happen with Quarrel and Lockhart, but Remus ends up staying after his year, and because Snape isn’t the only one there he doesn’t get revealed as a werewolf.

I will def elaborate more on other fun stories within this universe I created within Harry Potter but this post is so long already so thats all for now!

Prompt 30 - World

@wolfstarmicrofic August 30, word count 391

“Woohoo, Yes go on Harry!!!” Sirius bellowed as his godson whooshed past him, wearing the England quidditch strip. Harry spun around in the air and soared back to where they were all sitting. 

“Good luck, darling,” Lily said with tears in her eyes. 

“Luck? He doesn’t need luck, he’s the best player out there Lily,” James beamed proudly. 

“I’ve got money on this Harry, no pressure, but it would be nice if you could make sure England wins,” Remus winked at him. 

“You’re going to be amazing,” Sirius told him quietly, his voice full of emotion. 

“Thanks, guys,” Harry’s face split into a huge dazzling grin as he flipped over on his broom and sped over to his starting position. 

“Don’t cry love, or you’ll miss the game,” Remus murmured into his hair as he planted a kiss on the top of Sirius’s head. 

“Oh, stop being such a grump, Remus. Let him cry if he wants to,” Lily wailed, grabbing Sirius’s arm and letting her tears fall. 

“Look at our boy go,” Sirius sniffled, his face as wet as Lily’s as the whistle blew and Harry became a blur as he climbed higher into the sky to search for the snitch. 

It was the fastest win of a World Cup match he’d ever been to. Harry caught the snitch within five minutes, winning the game and the cup. He’d never been prouder of his godson. He turned to look at Remus, who was ecstatic, waving his winning ticket about. He wrapped his arms around his husband, and they watched Harry fly around the pitch, golden snitch held high above his head, his dazzling smile painted firmly on his face. Remus held him tightly against his side and whispered in his ear. 

“Maybe he’ll teach, Reggie, when he’s big enough like you coached Harry and the Weasleys when they were little,” Remus said, glancing down at the little black-haired bundle safely tucked under his cloak, sleeping soundly. Sirius beamed down at his son. He couldn't believe how lucky he was in this moment. 

“Well, if he doesn’t, I’m taking that Firebolt 3 back off him,” Sirius said, looking back out at the pitch. “What do you think, Reggie, will this be you one day?” He asked the sleeping babe. He couldn’t wait to see what Regulus would grow up to be.
