#i hate regulus

[ifyouknowmenahyoudontt]

the marauders fandom is the PERFECT exemple of performative activism.

yall make such a strong point about sexuality thinking it’s doing something while completely erasing the characters personality.

i don’t CARE that regulus black is gay in your eyes what matters is that HE WAS A PUREBLOOD SUPREMACIST. you use sexuality as a shield in a way that’s so counterproductive.

the point of all of this was to make barely existent characters deeper and more complex but it went off to make everyone dumbed down stereotypical version of barely themselves.

we all hate jkr right? but some of you go around erasing the only political aspect of the books for the sake of your little fetishized gay twink story.

you think you are so different from the rest of hp fans because you make characters gay but you ignore the racial and gender stereotypes aspects of everything. as a woman and a NON WHITE woman hearing people talking about their favourite ships and characters is WILD.

all of you put such an importance on being respectful to peoples opinions but only when it comes to sexuality. the moment someone criticizes your love for canonically racist little assholes that did so much damage instead of deepening characters that ARE CANONICALLY WHAT YOU MAKE FANON INTO you freak out and call them names.

the fight for the LGBTQ+ community is not singular. it goes hand in hand with many other fights like for racial equality and gender equality.

before you comment “ LeT pEOplE liVe” or “ In My HeadCaNonS theYre nOT liKE THAT” i don’t care about the me.me.me speech

i care about what you make popular. what had taken over the fandom and what is being seen by the younger audience that you make seem as normal

the headcanon of regulus just being able to cry on command is horrifying but also the funniest thing i’ve ever fucking heard. like i imagine regulus is hanging out with the marauders, post black brothers reconciliation, and him and sirius are bickering and sirius JOKINGLY goes “well it’s not MY fault it’s impossible for you to show any emotion” and regulus blinks. and then just fully starts sobbing.

and james and remus and peter are all like ?!?!?! what the FUCK . RIGHTFULLY SO. and james’ heart is hurting so bad because he’s never seen regulus cry before and he’s trying to comfort him and hold him and regulus, (who is gay and a little shit) is just letting himself be hugged and letting james pet his hair or whatever and remus is like. sirius what the fuck apologize to your brother??????? because sirius has been sitting there the entire time unmoving and he just raises his eyebrows, completely unimpressed and deadpan when he goes, “you guys do know he’s faking right”. and then when remus and james both are like HUH??? torn between bewildered and angry with this reaction, regulus just extracts himself from james, face completely neutral but with tears drying on his cheeks, no sign of the heaving, hyperventilating sobs he’d fallen into literally a second ago and says “i win”. it terrifies peter so bad that he can’t look him in the eyes for a week

I think people that say that sirius completely hated regulus are only children because if you have a sibling, especially a younger sibling you would understand more that sibling relationships are so complicated and idk about anyone else but I truly don't think I could ever hate my baby sister

Regulus: Shut the door when you leave my room.

Sirius: Okay.

Sirius: *sprints out of Regulus’ room, leaving the door wide open*

[calamitoustide]

thinking about frat boy James who tells Regulus he doesn't do "relationships" and Regulus agrees to just be casual and see other people which is completely fine... until there's a party they both attend with different dates and James sees Regulus with someone else for the first time and he loses his fucking mind

“comfort” - Jegulus microfic - @into-the-jeggyverse - 337 words

“It’s not that I don’t want to, I just don’t want to, you know?” Regulus tells James.

“Yeah, I know.” James says. “But hey… you wanted to try things outside your comfort zone—"

“I meant things like sky diving or bungee jumping. Not this.” Regulus drops his head in his hands.

“You don’t have to if you really don’t want to.” James tells him.

“Yes, I do!” Regulus grumbles. “Plus… I want to...” He whispers after a moment. “I just don’t want to.” He adds after another beat of silence.

James chuckles beside him and Regulus lifts his head up with a glare.

“This is not funny.” He tries to snap but it comes out as more of a pout.

“I’m sorry.” James smiles sweetly. “But I do think you’re overthinking it a little. It’s just my mum.”

“Just your mum!?” Regulus repeats. “Your mum who I have never met, I’ve never even talked to, and now I’m going to call her on the phone, and I hate talking on the phone. I think I can overthink that a little!”

“It won’t be that bad. You’ll call, thank her for the gift, and that’s it. It’ll take five minutes then you’re done.” James tries to tell him. “Do you want me to call her first then I can hand it over to you?” He asks.

“No.” Regulus says firmly after thinking about it for a moment. “I want to. It means more if I call her.” He explains. “I just don’t want to.” He mumbles.

James chuckles again and Regulus glares at him. He holds his hands up in mock surrender, holding his phone in one of his hands.

“Ugh, you know what?” Regulus snaps then grabs the phone. “Just give me that.”

Regulus stands up, takes a deep breath and hits call before he has a chance to change his mind.

Two hours later

“Hey Reg?” James walks into the living room. “Do you think I can have my phone back?”

“Shush!” Regulus waves him off. “Sorry Effie, keep going.”

Jegulus “engagement photoshoot” commission ⭐️

James Potter wears contacts when he plays qudditch. And Regulus hates it. That's the post.

[shipspainfulships]

You can like ships without hating on other ships. Like ffs the jegulus hate is so mind boggling. What the fuck? God if you don't like it DON'T COMMENT ON IT MAYBE? Why is the hate necessary.

Jegulus is as beautiful as Jily. Both are really good ships. Most good jegulus ships don't hate on Lily. We all love Lily ok?

I am a multishipper; I ship jegulus, jily and when I can't decide which one I like more I go with jegulily. It's just very fucking weird to hate on something that brings people joy.

Go get a life.

Reminder: hating does not make you cool.

As much as people want this to be jegulus, it is and always will be the perfect bartylus variants

James, running late to class: Sorry, professor, I'm late. My alarm clock didn't go off.

Everyone in the classroom staring at him:

Professor Flitwick: Nice of you to join us, Mr. Potter.

James, walking to his seat next to Sirius:

Sirius, staring holes at the back of James' head:

Professor Flitwick, turning around to resume his lesson, but just before he adds: I'd advise you you don't mistake your uniform with someone else's next time you're running late.

James, clueless: What? *then, whispering to Sirius* What?

Sirius, shooting daggers at him: Prongs. Who's Slytherin tie is this?

James, blinking, and slowly looking down at the green tie he's wearing, before looking up sheepishly: Haha, you're not going to belive this—
