"Where've you two been?"

Sirius's voice rang out clearly down the corridor, making both James and Regulus freeze. Though James immediately felt himself panicking, a cold hand pinched his arm for just a moment, reminding him to stay calm.

"Hey, Sirius," Regulus answered casually, turning to his brother like he was actually happy to see him. What're you doing here?"

Sirius, however, was not to be distracted. "James, why do you have- are those grass stains on your jeans?"

James looked down, horrified, to see that there were, in fact, green marks on both of his knees from when he'd been kneeling in the forest half hour earlier. He swallowed as he looked at the damning evidence, scrambling to think of an explanation. "We were-"

"Playing Quidditch," Regulus interrupted smoothly, face blank. "At the Pitch. I didn't realize you fell so hard, Potter, you ought to get Pomfrey to look at you," he said pointedly, eyeing James, who took the hint.

"Oh! Yes! Erm, I'll go right now," he nodded.

"I'll take you," Regulus agreed.

But as they passed Sirius, the Gryffindor yelled out suspiciously, "Did you fall too, Reg?"

Regulus turned, an eyebrow raised. "No...why?"

James saw Sirius's face and his stomach sank. He immediately knew they'd fucked up.

"Because you have grass stains all over your back," Sirius said slowly, eyes going wide.

Sirius: it costs zero dollars to keep your rude comments to yourself

Regulus: well it also costs me zero dollars to say them out loud

Regulus: also our birth-givers are millionaires i think we can afford it

sirius’ tattoos - subject to change when i inevitably completely cover him in anything and everything

I crave a Marauders fic but with biblical parallels. Give me James as Jesus (the leader of the righteous desciples/marauders), Sirius as John the Apostle (the most loyal desciple), Peter as Judas (best friend turned betrayer who thinks he’s doing good), Remus as Andrew (the preacher who died long after Jesus but while still preaching his ideas), Regulus as Peter (loved and was loyal to Jesus but in the end had to deny him to save his own life. Ended up being one of the most important in the afterlife.) and lily as Mary Magdalene (perceived lover of Jesus. Was arguably his biggest supporter in the end and had his Child)

Sirius was just like his mother but without the pureblood and death eater beliefs. He had the same anger issues and manipulation tactics, the same sharp glare and refusal to admit fault, the urge to stand and defend every opinion he had. He always hated that fact and would either break down or fight any person who brought it up.

Regulus was just like his father. Cold and never showing what he really felt, a carefully curated blank face at all times. He never stood up for what he believed in and sometimes worried he had no opinions on anything. He just did what was expected as a Black. The day he betrayed the Dark Lord was the first time he felt like a person and not some robot built only to obey.

Just like their parents the black brothers always painfully clashed. Never getting along but maintaining a cold indifference in front of others.

five - february 21 - black brothers - background jegulus - @black-brothers-microfic - cw: orion and walburga black are pieces of shit, but it's vague - word count: 613

Regulus Black had always been an insufferably serious person. Sirius always liked to joke that they'd been named incorrectly- Regulus was the one who never smiled, after all. But by the time he and Regulus escaped home at ages fifteen and sixteen, Sirius could only remember a grand total of five times that Regulus had really, truly smiled.

I

The first had, of course, been his first smile. Baby Regulus had been almost as emotionless as his teenage counterpart, hardly any tears or smiles, but the one time he had grinned, Sirius had caught it. And oh, it had been a sight to behold. A beautiful flash of gums followed by a little angelic giggle. Sirius's stomach had filled with joy as he'd smiled in return, so happy to see his baby brother happy.

Of course, it had been cut off quickly, when Mother had yelled so loudly, Regulus had started to cry.

II

The second time had been when they were small. Regulus had learned quickly that emotions weren't tolerated in the Black household and was a master of hiding them. But once, while they were hidden away in Sirius's room, reading a book that he had stolen from the local Muggle library, Sirius had caught it: the fleeting glimpse of glittering eyes and shining white teeth as Regulus had listened to Sirius read to him.

The feeling of seeing his brother smile had gotten him through insufferable meals for moths after.

III

The third time was when Sirius came home from his first year at Hogwarts. It had been so long since they'd seen each other, and though Sirius had written weekly, he'd felt like there was a gaping chasm in his chest where Regulus ought to be. So when a very stoic-looking Mother and Father greeted him on the platform, he ignored them. He instead focused on Regulus, who grinned from ear-to-ear, pulling him into a hug.

That hug and that smile helped him through one of the worst summers of his life.

IV

The fourth time was, of course, when Regulus got his own Hogwarts letter. Eleven-year-old Regulus looked like he was going to cry with happiness when he opened the thick envelope, and Sirius wanted to cry with pride along with him.

Of course, Mother and Father immediately ruined it by reminding Regulus that he better be a Slytherin 'or else.'

V

The fifth, and most recent, time was when Regulus had caught the Snitch in his first school Quidditch game, winning for Slytherin.

Sirius knew he was supposed to be rooting for Ravenclaw, but he couldn't help himself: seeing his brother smile like that made him scream his head off, pride swelling in his chest as he watched Regulus lifted on the shoulders of the other players.

+1

But now...now they were here. Showing up at the front door of the Potter residence in the middle of the night after what could only be described as the most horrific week of Sirius's life. He expected Regulus to be even more closed-off than usual. He expected him to maybe even cry, or scream.

But when James opened the door, and he and Regulus locked eyes...

Regulus broke into the biggest, most adoring, relieved smile Sirius had ever seen. And he watched as his brother rushed into James's arms, gripping him tightly like if he didn't, he would disappear.

And in that moment, Sirius realized that while he was a bit annoyed that he hadn't been told about something (because he was smart enough to know that friends didn't embrace like that), he absolutely didn't care. Because anyone who made Regulus smile like that was absolutely perfect for him.

[dolomitedarling]

series of sentences that fit this vibe :

"i would've come if you asked." "i couldn't ask - it's all too big, too treacherous."

"you shouldn't have faced it alone. you should've called." "i forgot how to think of you in a way that didn't villainize you."

"i thought of you often." "why didn't you call?"

"our roads end where they began. in a house with a basement and windows that sing." "you charmed them to sing off-key on purpose, didn't you?"

and all those words, unsaid and fleeting, die somewhere between a grasping hand and cold, frozen lips.

Sirius did not ask Regulus to leave with him.

Regulus did not ask Sirius to stay with him.

Regulus Sirius

[moonyswarmsweaters]

Regulus (whispering to Remus): Good job on the test today.

Remus (whispering back): Thanks shorty. Why are we whispering?

Regulus (still whispering): I want Sirius to think we're conspiring against him. Please look at him when you reply.

Remus (looking at Sirius): Messing with my boyfriend? Fun .

Regulus (also looking at Sirius): I'm glad you agree.

Sirius, sweating in fear: What are they talking about?

James, who overheard them but doesn't want to ruin their fun: Stabbing

[not-rab]

James *out of curiosity*: How did all four of you even befriend Regulus?

Evan: I helped fix his wand after I broke it

Barty: I stole his broom and refused to give it back unless he was nice to me

Pandora: I stalked him

Sirius: I'm his only biological brother and there's no refund button

[myrows]

The first time Sirius visited his childhood house after he escaped was when he discovered his brother died because of Voldemort

[aithusarosekiller]

Reg lives au where he looks so different after the cave (prosthetic leg, deep scars all up his arms and face, one dead eye, a bit of a tremor sometimes) that when Sirius eventually gets out of Azkaban and moves back in, he doesn't recognise him at all. Regulus takes it as Sirius' memory being so fuzzy due to the dementors and dark/harrowing setting that he didn't bother clinging to the memory of people he didn't care about

so from there it's easy to keep his cover as 'Lycan' long-term member of the order, dumbledore's second most trusted man, famously vague and impossible to research

The ruse only fails when one day he accidentally calls Sirius 'Ris' and he KNOWS because nobody else calls him that and oh hell how did he not recognise his own eyes looking back at him and what the fuck happened to his Reggie?

(I'm writing it guys)
