WORD COUNT: 626

The party is too loud, too hot, too much. The Gryffindor common room is packed with bodies, the air thick with alcohol, smoke, and laughter. But none of it matters—not the music, not the celebration, not the way James is grinning like he owns the world.

All Remus can focus on is the boy in front of him.

Regulus bloody Black, looking just as wrecked as he feels.

They're fighting again, their words sharp-edged and heated, half-shouted over the music, half-spat between clenched teeth. It doesn’t matter how it started—it never does. It only matters that it always ends the same way: tension strung so tight it could snap, unspoken words buried under barbed ones, something simmering beneath the surface that neither of them will name.

Regulus is flushed, firelight catching on his cheekbones, his storm-grey eyes dark with something furious, something reckless. He’s saying something, voice cutting, but Remus barely hears him because he’s too fucking tired of this. Of the fights, of the push and pull, of the way Regulus always—

“Why do you always get under my skin but never in my pants?”

The words leave his mouth before he can stop them.

Regulus goes still.

For a single, breathless second, the room fades—noise muffled, movement stilled, the party a distant hum. Remus braces for a sneer, a cutting remark, maybe even a hex. But Regulus doesn’t say a word.

He steps forward, fists the front of Remus’s shirt, and kisses him.

It’s not careful. It’s not soft. It’s desperate, messy, all teeth and heat and months of tension snapping at once.

Regulus kisses like he fights—unyielding, relentless, pouring every unsaid word into the clash of lips and tongue and breath. He tastes like firewhisky and something richer, something darker, and Merlin help him, Remus lets him. More than that, he kisses back—hard, unthinking, gripping at Regulus’s waist like he’s trying to drag him inside his skin.

Someone laughs, maybe Sirius, maybe James, but Remus doesn’t care. Not when Regulus is pressing closer, pushing him back, until his spine meets the stone wall with a sharp breath.

Regulus doesn’t stop. Doesn’t hesitate. If anything, it makes him worse.

He cages Remus in with his body, hands braced against the wall beside his head. His breath is uneven, his lips swollen, his pupils blown wide. His voice, when it comes, is low, wrecked, just for him.

“Do you ever shut up?”

Remus huffs out a breathless laugh. “Apparently not.”

Regulus exhales sharply, something between a scoff and a groan, but before he can say anything else, Remus yanks him forward by the collar and kisses him again. Slower this time, deeper, but no less consuming.

The second kiss is different. It isn’t just heat—it’s inevitability, a slow, aching burn that coils low in Remus’s stomach. Regulus makes a quiet, frustrated sound against his lips, his fingers still fisted in Remus’s shirt like he’s afraid to let go.

Someone whistles. There’s a burst of laughter.

James’s voice carries, bright and amused. “Well. That escalated quickly.”

Regulus growls, head snapping toward him. “Fuck. Off.”

James just grins. “Not my fault you’re having a full-on epiphany in the middle of the party, mate.”

But Sirius—Sirius isn’t grinning. He’s staring at them like he’s just witnessed a murder, mouth opening and closing like he’s trying to find words and failing.

Regulus tenses. The shift is immediate. The walls start going up, his shoulders going rigid.

No. No.

Remus refuses to let this moment slip through his fingers.

He makes a split-second decision, grabs Regulus’s wrist, and leans in. His lips brush against the shell of his ear when he murmurs, low and deliberate—

“My dorm.”

Regulus’s breath hitches.

Remus tightens his grip. “Now.”

Regulus doesn’t argue.

He follows.

pre moonwater drunk fight at a party and Remus accidentally says "Why do you always get under my skin but never IN my pants?" because he's tired of so many fights

Regulus doesn't even answer, he goes straight into kissing him

(ensue miscommunication and unwanted friends with benefits that last 2 days because they're both jealous)

"no endo is claiming to have did" factoid statistical error. endo georg, who lives in a cave and experienced hell trauma that led to a DID diagnosis from a licensed professional, is someone you overlooked on purpose to pander to sysmeds

Remembering the toxic hellscape that was 2015-2019ish SU fandom and just how much hate the show got is really insane when you rewatch the show after it's been a while. Like the show is good what the hell were any of these people talking about

Jonas essentially just shows up and Alex is like oh I hope he's friendly... And then immediately proceeds to give up her life for him and the fact that you can say something like "that was for Jonas" it's like OUUUGH SHES SO-

when her grief from losing michael makes her not only accept jonas as a sibling right away, but also makes her follow in michael's footsteps by taking jonas out somewhere just to bond and have fun but accidentally loses her life instead 😁✌

no matter how respectful you are or how sound your argument is, if you respond to a liberals post with an opinion that challenges their cognitive dissonance they will find literally any justification to not respond to ur actual argument then turn around say this is the bad reading comprehension website and u misinterpreted them. “How dare u assume the words I said meant what they say!!”

The thing about a lot of the purity culture stuff is how it's also propped up by the anti-intelectualism. Which is how you get people earnestly Charlie-day-cork-board style arguing why anything they don't like has incest subtext, while insulting anyone who actually cares about analyzing real incest subtext.

It's also hard to do any serious analysis of the state of queer works, when the well has been so thoroughly poisoned between prople policing who gets to write/enjoy it, vs writers who see regular engagement with the premise of their writing as a threat.

Some People always say 'I hate how artists are directing their hate at AI instead of unethical corps stealing their work :'(' but never have that critical energy for the droves of regular people online who've used AI art to gleefully devalue artists, tell artists we've become obsolete or aren't as good as AI, tell artists we're elitist for wanting to keep art something people who aren't super rich in other ways can continue to dedicate their time to bc they're paid for their labour, etc. Which is often what artists are responding to, understandably with frustration. Like actually IDC even if nothing is stolen, photography when it came out was threatening yes but the solution was to make it its own form of art and it doesn't compete with painting or drawing today because the photographists began to develop their craft with respect to their medium and painting/drawing was recognized to have value despite not being as 'flawless' because of the human process: see photography valuing things other than just the realism that comes with the medium and realistic art being valued for the skill it takes. As long as AI art is a tool directly in competition with painting and drawing, which is pushed by those that want to exploit and underpayment artists, and people degrade the work of artists as the same as or inferior to it, it's an issue.

hey real quick bc i haven't seen anyone really talk about it; fuck Hoarders. what a disgusting fucking show. like i know a lotta content boils down to "let's gawk at mentally ill or poor or whatever ppl" but this one specifically really peels my paint. it's sickening. let's spend an hour walking around someone's house and going "wow!! look how fucked this is!!! i can't believe you live like this (despite having done like 13 seasons of this)!!!! you really need to get your act together, buster!" and then interviewing the family to get sound bites demonstrating how much of an Unreasonable Burden the subject is and (without actually helping any of the mental health issues that may lead someone to hoard) roll their eyes at them when they are upset at someone taking and trashing/destroying their precious belongings (or are made to do it themselves). and then half the time in the where are they now segment it's like "yeah they relapsed lol idk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯" like??? no shit dumbass.

i don't care how strange their homes or habits are. these people are deserving of compassion and real, honest help. they don't need people to marvel at how Kooky Wacky Bonkers™ they are, and they don't need people to hurt them just because they don't understand what they see in their possessions or are embarrassed by knowing them or whatever.

we don't need another voyeuristic savior-complex charade where the condition for The Most Half-Assed Help You've Ever Seen is being publicly humiliated and having to destroy things that mean a lot to you. what the fuck.

one thing i can intermittently remember re: lackadaisy is that way back when, would've been around '08 to '10, i mentioned it to someone in person w/whomst like informal Media Recs Trading was established & i think mentioned wanting recs for checking out webcomics specifically? & i was like ooh lackadaisy Gotta be lackadaisy (i read like, a few others at the time but was immediately huge on that one specifically due to [the ways it pwned were obvious to me first reading it in '07 and Now alike]) and like. in the realm of Left Field Responses I Got After Ventures Of Someone W/o The Confidence I Have Now Thanks To Grinding For It In The Entire Interim i eventually followed up like did you check it out, what do you think, b/c my enthusiasm was stronger than my reluctance to bring shit up unprompted. and i think they were sort of evasive a moment but then were like nah b/c.......why are they cats....like lmfaoooo was Not ready for that like yeah idk what to tell you if that was that significant a factor. except that if you know that much it's too late the furry police are en route

not long afterwards perhaps truly more unexpected. i managed to finagle going to the first convention marble hornets was at, relatively short notice, and this is thanks to by that point having Enthusiasm behind it again, of course. afterwards to the relatively small tumblr mh ether i Ventured Forth again like is there interest in my talking about it, livestream q&a possibilities style even? and then i got an anon telling me not now b/c hοmestuck had updated. omicron just to not risk it plus i think even now i'd filter my own post. like divide this into four sections the way i'm truly at a loss. didn't have that much to talk about but looking back like fr you're neurononconforming in online fanbase Posting same as in the [random discord servers Hate them! non normative verbal communication happens in scores / hundreds of words if it happens at all] like and yet it gets to you to the con. and to the "i don't need other people to like media 'with' me i didn't talk about lackadaisy at all till the pilot dropping & my [first full reread in a Minute] got me all fired up posting style & 'hey wait. my special little guy. all this fresh Mystery Plot Everything appreciation. whoa'" moment. plus nowadays it's only like Lol Lmao whereas back then it was like :( :/ but also still funny b/c this person was running away throwing chairs & tables behind them like i'm not a furry i'm not and an anon was like didn't ask don't care oppa homestuck style. standing there palms open like. furious theorizing is there for me
