#is what got regulus

[tenaciousmilkshakecandy]

When James and Regulus had their first fight in a relationship Regulus thought James was going to break up with him and James had to sit down and comfort him cause "people in relationship sometimes don't see eye to eye but it doesn't mean they're breaking up"

James: I’ll love you forever, Regulus.

Regulus: You will?

James: Yes, that’s the problem.

I can’t believe the fandom has made it so that criticising death eaters is somewhat of a crime and offensive.

In the books, death eaters were blood supremacists who wanted to create a regime that would oppress and murder muggleborn witches and wizards as well as muggles. It was a terrorist organisation, which means that every single member who joined are… guess what? Terrorists and blood supremacists. This is not speculation or opinion. This is facts. It was in the books.

Now, you can choose to ignore this and give these canonical terrorists all the sob stories you want to justify their actions, but remember that those are your personal headcanons, not facts. It’s fanon, not canon.

So, don’t camp under people’s posts who are speaking about canon versions of characters and criticising them for who they were in the books because you headcanon them as helpless baby boys.

The same way people are allowed to disregard canon to build their own perception of these characters, people are also allowed to care for who they were in the books.

"Effort" - Jegulus microfic - 583 words

-

Regulus was normally very good at hiding his emotions. He had learned at a young age that he could not be loved if he expressed the things he truly thought, if he asked questions to appease his love of learning and knowledge. The first time Regulus had reached for a document of his father’s, just to see what it was that had always kept him from spending time with his family, he’d had his fingers broken.

However, with the stress of his upcoming OWLs, Regulus was having a harder time keeping up a façade of apathy. James had only been trying to help, he knew that. But studying with James was hell. It just showed Regulus everything he was not, everything he could not be.

James Potter, who got four Outstandings and five Exceeds Expectations, yet had no notes, no ‘study tips’, nothing to offer Regulus. He had just shown up to the exams and fucking perfected them, and Regulus could not deal with it.

“James, you’re not helping,” Regulus snapped, as James attempted to explain some formula that Regulus had already given up on understanding.

“Sorry,” James replied sheepishly. “I guess I just…got it.”

“Yeah, well some of us have to put actual effort into studying. We can’t all just turn up and get Outstandings,” Regulus spat, moving from where he was sat across from James to stand by the window. With his back turned to James, Regulus allowed himself to soften a little, to be vulnerable. “I…I try so hard, James. I spend all of my free time studying. I’ve basically given up my social life so I’ll at least pass my exams, and you just…you just understand it all so easily.”

Regulus felt arms wrap so carefully around him that he could do nothing other than lean back against his boyfriend. His perfect boyfriend, who had been so patient while Regulus studied and studied in place of spending any time with him.

“Angel, I’m not any smarter than you just because I did well in some stupid exams,” James said softly, placing a kiss to Regulus’s shoulder. “You’re the smartest person I know. I want to write down every word you say, I want to listen to you speak every day for the rest of my life. I just…I get the exams, I get how they work and I remember the things I need to remember. But that’s not real intelligence, that’s not genius. What you’ve got is genius. The way your mind works, that’s genius. Not some silly grades on some silly test.”

Allowing himself to hang on James’s every word, and trying to convince himself that he believed it all fully, Regulus turned in James’s arms to plant a kiss on his jaw. “I love you,” he whispered against James’s skin.

“I love you, angel,” James said back, looking down at him with an expression so kind it could have rendered Regulus stupid. It probably would have, had Regulus not seen that exact look on James’s face every time he looked at him. It was so strange, really, to become used to such affection. Regulus never believed he could be loved this way, let alone become accustomed to such devotion.

It was another type of love, in and of itself, Regulus believed. He spent every single day in love with James Potter, and he did not doubt that James felt the same way. If that was not the purest form of adoration, Regulus did not know what was.

regulus leaves and transitions and rather than letting anybody find out walburga and orion announce that he died and hold a funeral, sirius has no reason to question the lie until he bumps into someone familiar a few years later

@jegulus-microfic / trophy / 198 words / first kiss

“What do you want? A trophy?” Regulus scoffed.

“Something like that, yeah,” James took a step closer, a smirk on his face. 

“I’m not patient enough to guess, James.”

“A kiss, Regulus,” he said teasingly. 

Regulus felt a blush creeping up his cheeks and quickly responded before James could notice, “Whatever, get it over with.”

It was like slow motion—he watched as James leaned down, felt his hands finally touch the back of his neck, one hand tangling in his curls, the other gently holding his face. And then, James' lips pressed softly against his. 

Oh.

They had been driving each other mad for months, swearing they couldn’t stand one another. Maybe it had always been this—the denial, the frustration, all building up because deep down, this was what they both wanted. Regulus knew it now, maybe he’d known from the first moment he laid eyes on James Potter, or perhaps from the first time he heard him laugh. But now, tasting him, feeling him this close, there was no denying it. 

James pulled back slightly, their lips still barely touching. “Regulus,” he whispered.

“Not yet, don’t stop,” Regulus breathed.

He wanted James. He wanted all of him.

moonwater but its (trans) regulus frist time

so in the moonwater fic i wanna write regulus is a virgin so i wont write an entire scene as fingers crossed i'll write it in that haha but i do have headcanons i wanna share okay okay (nsfw below):

regulus isn't really a dating person, like he has crushes and likes being the mysterious hot guy but he's too chicken shit to actually flirt with anybody lmao so he's never slept with anyone, only kissed people (mostly his friends aka mostly barty) at parties or for dares and stuff

remus on the other hand is the guy who wants to find the love of his life, he's a secret romantic and loves with his whole heart, but he's only dated maybe four people so far, so that's his experiance, he becomes a master at one person then has to relearn another and he just wants to be with one person forever ya know

i can picture them both talking about their experiances in the way of remus telling reg that he hasn't really been with someone that's wanted him to feel pleasure, like people tried but no one really bothered too hard compared to him who always put in 110% every time

reg wants that BAD

he wants someone obsessed with him, that makes him feel comfortable and wants him to want them back, he wants to touch and learn and taste and feel and he wants it with remus

so when they do eventually get together he's excited but then he's like oh fuck we're a couple i have to DO things he gets nervous

remus doesn't expect sex,,,,ever, he isn't asexual exactly but sex isn't that big of a deal to him, he's used to the other person wanting it more so he's just happy to be with reg whilst poor regulus is having a crisis over when they need to have sex

it starts slow, touching each other's skin and just exploring, they're sweet and giggly and just taking in the fact they're together and it's sparks flying and they've both never felt this kind of connection before

basically, not only are they deeply in love, but they are so desperatley horny for each other and neither of them know how to express it

remus makes the first move and knows reg is trans, he truly doesn't care because he's had experiance with both kinds of genitals, he just wants to make reg feel as good as possible, and the first time he goes down on him it's in his bed at night and regulus has to desperatley cover his mouth because it feels so fucking good he's shaking

like no amount of touching himself will compare to remus' tongue and fingers on and inside him like,,,it's pure ecstasy

and reg is addicted after that he's dragging remus off to the black family library to make out and grind against each other and he touches remus but remus is still really nervous about finally being touched but one night they're out in the garden and regulus asks if he can just jerk him off, blowing is a lot for him since he's never done it, and remus is a MESS bro he's had handjobs before but regulus is curious and watching his every reaction and using it to learn and remus cums so hard he almost passes out

once again, both become obsessed with touch

their actual first time is silly and sweet, they're alone for once, no family or friends to possibly walk in on them, and they take their fucking time

it's hours of foreplay and smiles and nervous breathes and then remus is putting a condom on and regulus is clenching his fists but remus kisses him so softly that he melts, he tells him they can stop at any time, that if it hurts they wont do it again until regulus is ready, and so he pushes in and of course it feels weird, it kinda hurts a little as the stretch is a lot, but then remus is moaning in his ear and kissing his neck and telling him how gorgeous he is in the moonlight and regulus starts to feel it

remus goes DEEP and thats what reg figures out he likes, not girth but depth (and he's correct) so he starts begging remus to go deeper and just rock inside him and he's hiccuping out these noises that drive remus insane

then reg gets confident and asks to go on top and they're both done for basically, it gets them both off from just staring into the others eyes and panting and moaning together and when they both cum they just laugh and smile together because all of those nerves for this amazing moment????

so fucking worth it
