"So what do you recommend to encourage affection?"

"Dancing, even if one's partner is barely tolerable"

being an x reader writer and trying to be inclusive of all readers makes me overthink so much like should i write about you having smth with milk in it? no no what if the reader is lactose-intolerant. about the reader being the big spoon? noo what if they wanna be cuddled like a little spoon. about fingers through your hair? noooo what if the person reading it is bald

Give me 70's closeted Jegulus

(This is a sad one beware)

Tw: implied homophobia, implied sex, depression, su1cidal ideation, character d3ath

70's jegulus who couldn't tell anyone. Not even their friends, because you don't know who you can trust

James uses the Marauders Map the most, not for pranks, but for when he and Regulus are spending time together in the middle of the night and need a heads-up for anyone that could walk in on them

Hesitant kisses and barely-there touches: the tug of a sleeve and standing just a little too close together

Give me closeted jegulus where Regulus has to remind James all throughout James' seventh year that he (Regulus) is to be married.

And that day comes

They meet up in ther spot

James goes in for a kiss but is stopped. Regulus breaks the news

"What?"

"You knew this would come, James."

But it's too soon. He's not ready to say goodbye. He's not ready to never hear Regulus' real laugh ever again

James doesn't think he can bare the thought of seeing Regulus with a conventional nuclear family one day, not after everything Regulus has told him

So James asks for one more night

He gets his one last night, just before his final exams

He's a mess before they can even get started

Regulus holds James' face. He himself is tearing up.

"Hey-what did.I say about crying?" It doesn't have the desired effect, because he's so clogged with emotion

"I don't wanna leave you, Reg."

"I know,"

"I love you."

"I know," a kiss. It lasts long because they're running out of time now, "I love you too,"

James marries Lily. He never bothered to find out who Regulus married. Couldn't stand it.

Then there was the wedding in the DP

Lily knows. She's known for as long as she's known James and she holds him as he sobs into her shoulder, the black ajd white image of Regulus Black, the heir to the Black family smiling at the camera with his new wife on his arm

That's not Regulus' real smile. James would know. He's seen it

James doesn't ask how Lily knows, but she tells him it's okay

That it will always be okay with her and that she'll love him no matter what

Harry comes along and for a while, James is okay

Regulus doesn't join Padfoot and Moony to come visit their son

And it's okay

James is okay

And then comes the news

Regulus Black confirmed dead

In bold on the front page

And James is a shell of a person after that

So when Voldemort is at their door on October 31st that fateful night, and all James can do is tell Lily to run with Harry

They're the only reason he tried to hold Him off, really

Because otherwise, had James been alone? He doesn't want to think about how easily he would give it up

But one thing he would never admit out loud:

Selfishly, secretly

He's glad he doesn't have his wand.

Because he can't last another second on this earth without him.

Ugh omg I hate angst with no happy ending but I needed to get this out of my head </3

Sirius getting in trouble and McGonagall not calling his parents because Sirius was disowned, but also not calling the Potters because they had to take care of talking to James.

So, she decides to bring Regulus to her office and just let him yell at Sirius.

reading a good ass fanfic up until it said something that just makes you want to stop reading

[alexsays-no]

They’re idiots

[pommeauromarin]

Enemies to lovers, but only one of them thinks they're enemies. The other has been entirely obsessed since the beginning.

Only acceptable way for me to read this trope
