“You’re the worst brother!”

“No, you’re the worst brother!”

“I hate you!”

“You already said that!”

“Well, it’s still true!”

“Oh my god, will you just shut up!” Regulus’s fingers twitched, and his wand slipped from its holder into his hand. He hadn’t even raised it when Sirius cocked his head. 

“Where did you learn that?” He asked. 

“Learnt what?” He said through gritted teeth. He was going to enjoy practising a few of the curses Sirius didn’t know he knew the next time his brother said something stupid, or annoying, or anything really. 

“Oh my god. Did James teach you that?” He cocked his head again, his brow furrowed as he tried to work something out. Regulus could feel the last of his patience slipping away. 

“James says it, and I suppose it’s worked its way into my vocabulary. What of it?” He raised his wand this time, warning Sirius to tread carefully. 

Sirius flopped down on Remus’s bed, looking stunned. “What?” Regulus asked. Sirius had never voluntarily stopped arguing with him. Sirius looked up, matching cool grey eyes locking.

“You really like him, don’t you? It’s not about pissing me off. You’re falling for James,” Regulus felt his cheeks heating as he blushed because, yes, that was exactly why he’d started using that expression. Sirius began laughing. “Oh, Reggie, you are in so much trouble!” Sirius rolled around the bed, continuing to laugh. Regulus shot a stinging jinx right at his rolling arse. “Ouch!” Sirius yelped and jumped to his feet. 

“If you even think for one second about telling anyone about James and I…” Regulus threatened, but Sirius stopped him mid-threat. 

“I won’t tell anyone, don’t worry. It’s not just you that’ll be in danger if this gets out. Mother will kill James if she ever finds out,” Regulus had never heard his brother sound so serious. It was unnerving. 

“Thank you,” He managed to push out. 

“Oh, I bet that hurt,” Sirius snickered. Regulus just glowered at him. 

“And in return, I won’t spread news of your relationship with Lupin,” Sirius rolled his eyes at him. 

“It’s Remus, and tell who you want, we don’t care. And who knows, maybe if it gets back to Mother she’ll be so disgusted she’ll pop her clogs, and we’ll all be free,” It was Regulus’s turn to roll his eyes. 

“Fine, truce?”

“Truce,” Sirius agreed, the smile he’d always reserved for Regulus spreading across his face. Regulus’s breath caught as he took it in. He thought he’d never see his brother look at him like that again. 

“Can I come out now?” A nervous voice squeaked from the bathroom. 

“Oh, shit, Peter!” Sirius bounded over to the door and yanked it open. “Sorry mate,” He apologised. 

“No, no, it’s fine, don’t worry. I just…” And Peter legged it out of the dorm room, leaving the brothers alone again. 

Sirius sucked his cheeks in as he tried not to laugh, but it was too much, and he let out a loud bark of laughter, which set Regulus off. And then for the first time in a long, long time. Regulus and Sirius Black were laughing happily together.

Elizabeth Mayer, employed in the quotation room of the New York Curb Exchange, places a changed quotation in its proper slot, January 19, 1942. With so many men away at war, the exchange hired “quote girls,” whose job involved standing on a bench to place numbered cards after shifting quotations on stocks and bonds.

THIS is officially my last TikTok + FINAL MESSAGE

I was gonna make some "grand edit" but I changed my mind. I put my heart and soul into 95% of my edits but I refuse to do it this time. Because this shouldn't be happening.

I will NEVER understand why it takes our government YEARS to agree on important matters (IF they agree) but for banning an app it takes months and the majority said "yes". Literally the stupidest thing I've ever seen.

Our government is filled with a bunch of old, crotchety, bitter, useless, racist motherfuckers who were elected/hired into office 300 fucking years ago and still have crusted shit in their powdered wigs.

I've been hearing that Capcut might get banned too. If that's the case, then this will be my last edit because I literally don't know how else to edit.

If this IS my last edit, I want to apologize to my moots. I would've stopped editing a long time ago if I didn't have all of you. I'm glad we're still here on this app if not anything else❤️

No matter what, I'll be on here and REDnote. Even if I can't edit, I'm staying on REDnote because it's the best middle finger to our government.

For those wondering why the death of the 1st Amendment in America, the US TikTok ban, has not resulted in a surge here on Tumblr...

Our beloved Tumblr is banned in China.

Most TikTok users already tried Tumblr and didn't like it. (Look at how short their attention span is!)

Tumblr isn't great for 杀猪盘 or "pig butchering scam" -- hell, the Gaza scammers we do have can barely make a living off your broke-ass asses!

Let it be known:

*ahem*

Henceforth: my blog shall be crapping out queued posts for "Jan 19 anniversary of US TikTok ban day to all who celibrate" long after I'm dead and well into the next millennium...
