“you’ve never had to go through that

with my family before we started dating.”

“do you think i wouldn’t suffer through

that a million times over just for you?”

sirius is stupid. pass this information on. however, the likelihood who you tell already knows is high. i’m so in love with him, he could break my heart all over again, and it’ll still belong to him!

you’re quick to take action . even in the most tense , life-or-death sort of moments , you never hesitate to lock in . . . forgive my terminology LMAOOOOOOO . but he really admires you for that because i’m getting the thought that your quick decision making skills have gotten the two of you out of very perilous situations

with the magician, i have a feeling that you’re able to wield a myriad of things to your benefit . for example , you know how in like video games a character normally has like one weapon they’re reeeeaaally good with , like in genshin tartaglia's build is rly good w/ bows and itto's it=s with claymores , like they can use other weapons but they’re not nearly as effective , but with you you can wield a bow or sword or polearm or even just your fists and you're still op LOLLLLLL you make the best with what you have and he loves that about you 

you’re very resilient , strong in both a physical and emotional way . yk how in shonen animes when the main character is like thrown and falls through like a hundred walls and goes “… heh , i’m just getting started 😈 “ and stands up from the pile of rubble like they just didn’t break through bricks LMAOOADOHF that’s you both on a literal and figurative way T  T he likes that abt you because it puts his mind at ease , that you can take care of yourself even when he isn’t around you , you’re a very capable being all on your own . 

with the seven of cups it tells me you’re a very multi-faceted person , and he LOVVESSS that . like there’s a lot to you as a person , and his favourite thing abt it is knowing that there are parts of you that only ﾉheﾉ is privy to hehehheeheudhsiujh >////////< like maybe you’re secretly a really sappy person and NO ONE believes him when he says it because you’ve never ever shown that part of yourself to anyone else before

you’re a very passionate person !! it’s something that not only he does , but everyone notices it first about you . not only that , you also have a very vibrant aura surrounding you , it’s definitely the first thing that caught his eye . how you almost seem to be surrounded by this dreamy , hazy light at alllllll times ໒꒰ྀི ≧ ᗜ ≦ ꒱ྀི১ . 

there's a quality you have that doesn't make you fit in , like there's something about you makes you stand out from the crowd . OOOHHHH maybe it’s your intellect ??? like you’re very in tune with your intuition in a way that’s almost scary , like you can clock shit from a mile away and that makes you stand out from everyone else . i'm also getting the vibe that your individual success is most probably what sort of alienates you from your peers ?? you’re like in a lane of your own in the good best way possible , like you aren’t doing it like anyone else and he picked up on that IMMEDIATELY

as i was shuffling the cards and the four of pentacles came up , for some reason i was like " awww he thinks you’re someone to cherish so deeply " , like yk how kids have a favourite stuffy they're never ever eeeeevvveeerrr seen without , like they’re always bringing it around everywhere and holding onto it so tightly , like that’s how he feels abt you LMFAISDAOSIDF

he wants to show you off !!! he’s like there’s no way someone as perfect as you is with me , i have got to be smug and brag abt how i pulled you LMAOOOAOHDSFHI i dont think he’d like ever actually go abt doing it though , because it’s showing up in a question on something he feels deep down , but if given the chance and subtly nudged into it he would do it so obnoxiously loud bc not only is he amazed that you even gave him a chance , but he’s like soooooo proud to be your partner (⸝⸝o̴̶̷᷄   ̫ o̴̶̷̥᷅⸝⸝)

new person , same old mistakes by tame impala is playing currently and i was humming the lyrics “ . . . tried but it’s way too late . . . “ during the intro of the song before literally any words were spoken T  T . embarrassingly , they're the wrong lyrics , which doesn’t make any sense because i know this song through and through , i literally know the lyrics like the back of my hand ,, so i know that that was channeled for realzies because the thought that he feels like it was inevitable for him to fall for you appeared right alongside it . like maybe before the two of you got together he tried and tried and tried to ignore his feelings and it was all in vain because his fate was already sealed by the time he even realized ahsufjadsfjh

in that same vein , i get the feeling that before you two got together he liked you looooooooong before that . and he felt a sense of deceit when it came to you because he felt like he was betraying you for having these feelings ( ? ) in what he knew was meant to be a completely platonic relationship . & with the three of cups clarifying the seven of swords i do feel like that rly was the case ,,, omg he felt awful for even wanting to be more than friends LMAOOAOSHDFH

slightly off topic ,, but woowowwowoow i love when the spread tells a cohesive story iskjdfksj like he goes from feeling very secretive with the seven of swords , then there’s that whole confession arc of " omg i wanna be with you " with the page of pentacles , then in comes the celebration of reciprocation with the six of wands & finally the sense of security within actually being with you with the four of pentacles aaaAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH ໒꒰ྀི >ヮ<꒱ྀི১ !!!!! ꒰ & no joke as i was typing “omg i wanna be with you “ the boy is mine by ariana started playing LMAOAOOAJDFOJDA and it’s even funnier , but i didn’t include this , but i was thinking earlier with the whole manifestation aspect of the page of pentacles he feels like you were made for him HELLPPPP ??? ꒱

“ it’s always been you . . . but you wouldn’t let it be „

ᴍᴀʀᴀᴜᴅᴇʀꜱ ᴜɴɪ ʀᴇᴀʟɪᴛʏ 𝓲𝙣𝖙𝙧𝙤

theodore hermès. is a current hogwarts university first year. the son of a wealthy french pureblood wizard and a indigenous mexican pureblood witch. the born wealthy and elite young wizard was born in france and was raised between there and the americas. when it came time to attend a magical school, his parents chose ilvermorny over beauxbatons. as he attended the american school his parents, as well as him on his breaks, still lived between the two countries. that was until a business venture left both his parents with no option but to find a permanent stay in england (note: as permanent as a wealthy family and boundless magical transportation can get you). before his third year at ilvermorny could start, theodore, nicknamed “theo” or “dior”, and at this moment in time, legally named theodora, transferred to hogwarts secondary school.

y’all wanted a “romantic” fanfic [novel] right?

sirius black. first met theodore with the rest of his friend group, the so-called marauders. theo had sat down for the first dinner feast of the year after being sorted to gryffindor privately when he had first made it on to school grounds. the closest empty seat was right next to the curly haired boy. him and the other three boys were very welcoming, while a girl named lily evans and her two friends were very interested in getting to know theo. as he spoke up, answering any of the seven’s questions, one boy seemed to catch on to theo’s accent. as he was raised multiculturally the accents of both his mother and father melded as they flowed out of his mouth, fighting each other for dominance on certain consonants and vowels. sirius black, after asking dumb questions prior to this moment, asked another, “why does your voice sound like that?” he said. and the blonde haired girl sitting next to lily cackled as james scolded sirius for his rude question. sirius tried to explain himself, muttering on about how it sounded american but also… not. theo laughed at that and explained that he was both american and french. sirius posture shot up as his eyes sparkled with excitement, he started spitting out french. and when theo responded back with exact & perfect french, he jumped up in his seat as he continued the conversation.

james had told sirius that was the exact moment the boy fell in love with theodore hermès, but he would deny it, saying he in fact remembered the exact moment he fell for the boy. it wasn’t too long after the start of their third year, autumn had rolled around. and it seemed the falling leaves were conspiring as they do in most romance novels, cruel fate. sirius and theo were sitting outside, bundled in their robes, and studying for their shared potions class, when a single leaf broke off from a branch above and landed gently in sirius’ hair. so gentle only theo seemed to notice. the boy across from him placed a portion of his hand on sirius’ jaw to maneuver his head towards him, the leaf was easier to grab this way. their eyes danced as they looked in each others eyes for mere milliseconds before theo said “here you go, pesky leaf„ in their shared language, and handed the leaf to him. when theo turned back to his notes, sirius was panicking. he didn’t know what he was feeling, but all of sudden he couldn’t stop thinking about just how much more french theo’s accent got when he spoke the language. and he could still feel the burning of theo’s fingers on his jaw despite how cold they were on his skin. but he pushed it all away, ignoring all of what it could mean for the foreseeable future. that is until he had to prove james wrong about when he fell in love.

sirius’ fourth year at hogwarts is when he accepts he has feelings for theo. after theodora became theodore, transitioning, and despite that sirius’ feelings for him don’t falter or budge, that’s when he knew he was screwed, that it wasn’t a fluke, it was serious. but he kept this to himself . . . or more so away from theo. james, peter and remus knew. so did marlene, and james told lily. when everyone first found out, mind you at different times, each of them had their ooouu’s and ahhhh’s and teasing moments but eventually sirius’ crush just became a norm, it was nothing special and just a part of daily life at hogwarts. theo didn’t necessarily feel the same way for sirius for a while, however. it can’t be said that theo didn’t have certain feelings for sirius. they were just no where near as strong, it was more a intense adoration than anything.

towards the end of their sixth year however is when things had changed. thursday night, or the night before friday, theo had dreamt of sirius. which isn’t saying a lot just from that one sentence, because all his friends have had made appearances in his dreams in the past 4 years. but none of those dreams were like this one. none of those dreams had heavy breathing, sweaty bodies pushed up against each other, whimpers and moans, and pleasure, so much pleasure. his body woke him up abruptly at about 3am that morning, hot flashing, sweating buckets, and yearning. he was too uncomfortable to go back to sleep so he took a shower then sat on his bed and bravely journaled the dream he had that night. after he finished he sat and waited for james to wake up so he could follow him to quidditch practice in hopes for an excuse to stay away from sirius this morning.

the rest of that friday was a near exact replica of the ones before except for two things: 1) everyone, fifth year and up, was eager for classes to end so gryffindor’s dorm party could start sooner rather than later and 2) theo couldn’t look sirius in the eye. he couldn’t even talk to sirius for too long because then he would have to stare at him head on, and he couldn’t stand it. but despite that, theo couldn’t help but stare at sirius when he wasn’t looking. feeling a fucked up mix of shame and lust. when the day ended and the party started theo kept away from his usual band of friends, instead finding his good friends, florence, sybil, xenophilius, pandora, alice, and frank. the random group chatted for a bit before splitting up with their own objectives in mind. theo left with xeno to go smoke, and not even two hits in, barely buzzed, he spilled to the blonde about his dream he had the night before. the man listened intently before he spotted something and then nodded in its direction as if to point. and when theo looked over to what held xeno’s attention he found sirius lounging on the couch staring directly at him. his gaze didn’t move, he didn’t go to look away, almost as if it were a test, a game of chicken after theo practically avoided looking at him all day. his blinks were slow, like a cats, and his stare seemed so serious as his hips shifted on the couch as he continued to slouch and stare, crossing him arms.

theo lifted the blunt he was holding in the air, like an invitation. and immediately sirius’ air of mystery lifted in that moment and he shrugged with a look on his face that said “eh why not,” a joke, ha-ha. as sirius made his way over, xenophilius left so sirius could take his place. theo took another hit as sirius sat down and blew the smoke in his face. sirius snatched the blunt from him and did it back, making them both laugh. the next ten minutes the two of them sat there in silence, it was nice. but then sirius spoke up, “you’ve been avoiding me. or ignoring me. one of the two, maybe even both.” in french . . . he sounded so pretty when he spoke in french. “i’m sorry.” is all theo could think to say. he reached for the blunt in sirius’ hand but he pulled it away and out of reach “i just want to know what’s going on, theo.” and in this moment theo hadn’t moved since he reached for a smoke, the drugs and sirius making his mind fail his body. he just stared, then looked at sirius’ lips and before he could think— “i want to kiss you.” sirius’ eyes widened, and so did theo’s at the sight and he immediately sat as far back from sirius as possible, unable to say anything else, his mind now failing his mouth.

sirius was shocked, he kind of never thought this would happen. and his mind was battling itself and wondering if it’s just the weed that made theo say that, and if it’s even worth going for only to be disappointed when the high wears off. and on the other side theo is mentally yelling “say something!” both to sirius and himself. hoping silence isn’t all there will be. he gives up on waiting though and goes to speak, english this time, “listen, sirius, i ju-” and then he’s cut off by sirius grabbing him by the scruff on the back of his head and kissing him. sirius then moved to hold the side of theo’s face with the blunt still pinched between his fingers. theo was shocked but gave in happily. the blunt was put out fast and the two spent the rest of the party making out in the corner while their friends feel like they just witnessed the second coming of christ as life long agnostics. pure shock but also just full on hyped.

the morning after theo had explained to sirius that he’s most definitely attracted to him, and while he’s not ready to be in a relationship, he wants to explore the less platonic side of things with him. however, during the middle of summer, right before their seventh and final year at hogwarts, they started officially dating. things were perfect. amazing. beautiful. they both felt so loved and theo had never been as in love with anyone as he had been with sirius. they went on dates, got each other gifts, spent too much time together, took each other’s virginities, said i love you. but during the winter break of their seventh year, sirius’ problems with his parents got revived and theo was brought into it by association. and while everything got solved, sirius, for the few weeks after being back from vacation, couldn’t stop kicking himself. couldn’t stop worrying about if it happened again in the future. then he spiraled thinking that he wasn’t good enough for theo, that the life he would be giving him wasn’t one he deserved. throughout this time he was isolating from theo, and everytime theo tried to talk to sirius about it, when he felt he knew what sirius was feeling and tried to reassure him, it went nowhere. sirius eventually decided he wasn’t what theo needed, and he broke it off with him.

theo was heartbroken. he cried for weeks, had to stay in lily, mary, and marlene’s dorms for a majority of the remainder of the school year. it started as a week and then more and more of theo’s stuff left his and the boys’ dorm. the boys were scolding sirius trying to convince him to take it back. telling him he was stupid for letting his thoughts get to this point. but their words and theo’s hurt only convinced him even more that breaking it off was what was necessary. that was until the girls got to him. they changed perspectives for him pretty fast, but he felt it was too late to fix things by the time he figured it out. eventually theo was required to move back in with the boys when mcgonagall found out theo swapped rooms. he wasn’t in their dorms often though. and theo rarely spoke or participated when hanging out with the boys while sirius was there. it was at this time that he grew closer to people outside of the group of marauders, needing an escape. not being able to look at out be near sirius.

the boys and theo, many years prior, had planned to travel the world for a several weeks after graduating. it was partly theo’s idea, but it was a labor of love from them all. after the breakup theo said he wasn’t going, that james could take lily in his place. but james had practically begged theo to join them when heard. it wasn’t until james got remus to beg too that he agreed to go. the many weeks in forced proximity with sirius made theo remember that he still loved him. so very much. and that hurt, but it also comforted him. he was able to build back a sort of rapport with his now ex boyfriend. by the start of their first semester at university everything was normal again within the marauders. to the point that when theo’s roommate request got screwed up and he was in a dorm with james and sirius rather than remus and peter, he didn’t try and fix it.

however for theo, getting over sirius meant that he doesn’t have to be romantically or sexually celibate. as soon as his freshman year started he was getting to know people, going on shitty first dates, and he told himself if the possibility of a hook up came along he’d take it (spoiler: he never did). he was still thinking of sirius, and that pain of remembering the good with him never went away. every shitty first date reminded him of what he had with him and that it was going to be hard to replace. and sirius wasn’t blind, he saw theo leave their dorm dressing nicer than usual. and he wasn’t deaf, he heard lily talk to james about theo’s dates. and he just wants to rip at his chest until his heart is out and he can’t feel it ache anymore.

sirius felt the worst though when theo no longer went on shitty first dates. he felt worse when theo’s swimming rival, evan rosier, started to anger him less, and they started hanging out more. and maybe sirius is insane but his body language around the blonde was changing too. sirius was going crazy. and after all this shit he now has to decide . . . is he going to watch all of this unfold and wallow in self pity, or is he going to try and get theo back. little does he know, despite everything, sirius won’t have to do much to win him back.

8:07am 💌 i’m woken up to fingers tracing over my skin gently. the tickle of soft touches opened my eyes. the bright light of morning made them burn. and as i turned to shield them, i was met with eyes that were looking back at me like i was heaven. i smiled instantly, shoving my arms back under the covers, wrapping them around the man laying with me, and pulling him into me for a deep hug. his nose dug into the crook of my neck before he flipped me on my back and straddled my hips, attacking my face and neck with kisses. “happy valentine’s day, mon beau,” he mutters in french his voice still hoarse, before going back to kissing my face. when he doesn’t stop and i start giggling at the feather-light touch of his lips, a groan is heard from the other side of the room, “please get a room,” james complains.

10:28am 🍰 the cold winter breeze sliced at my cheeks as we walked through the streets of a small wizard town near campus. my hand was freezing in the harsh february air, but i had no interest in dropping sirius’ hand from mine. walking into the restaurant was a welcomed respite from the cold. “why is it so cold? look, feel my hands,” i whispered as the waitress took us to our table. walking down the row of tables, i placed the back of my hand on an empty space on sirius’ neck. he yelped in response, then jokingly threatened to return my gifts if i did it again. once seated, my eyes scanned the menu, trying to decide if i wanted pancakes or a classic breakfast. i felt sirius kick my feet under the table. i kicked his feet back, looking up at him to find him hiding the lower half of his face behind his menu, clearly amused. he pretended like nothing happened as he put down his menu and asked, “what are you thinking of getting?” i snorted at his strange attempts at flirting as well as the immediate ignorance of it, then answered his very important question. when the waitress came back with our drinks and asked if we were, “ready to order,” sirius ordered the valentine’s day special pancakes, and i ordered the biggest breakfast platter i could. we spent the rest of our breakfast date talking as we shared both the pancakes and platter between us. sirius told me i looked cute when i spoke with my mouth full. i thought he was making fun of me, so i frowned, still with my mouth full. he laughed as he explained that he was 100% serious.

2:34pm 🧸 me and sirius laid in his bed as our favorite show played on a laptop in front of us. my arm rested under his head and my hand was clasped in his as they rested on his shoulder. sirius went to kiss the top of my hand only to drop it quickly after. he jumped up in bed and yelled, “wait there!” i looked at him confused, “and don’t look,” he yells again. i looked down at my lap as i heard his and james’ shared armoire squeak open and plastic rustle. “damn… didn’t think that through.” i hear in english, and i look up at him as he freaks out, “no no!” but i see it immediately, a bouquet of flowers that are a little crumpled from being hidden in a closet for who knows how long. my hand clasps in front of my mouth to stop from giggling. “yeah i know, i bought them too early and had to hide them from you. probably not my smartest move,” sirius explains, back to speaking french again. despite the fact the flowers were a little bent at the stems in certain places, i noticed the flowers were my favorites, and hard to find, hyacinths. i jumped out of his bed and went to him with my hands out, he hands me the flowers. i looked at them for a couple seconds, overwhelmed with love. i placed the flowers down quick before attacking him with a tight hug and then neck and face kisses. he laughs loud and hard, “you like them then?” i pull back shaking the man, “you got me hyacinths, i don’t care what shape they’re in!” sirius lets out a, “yay!” as he grabs my cheeks and pecks my lips quickly, “now let’s go find a vase, do you think lily would have one?”

5:05pm 🕯️i was being led, blindfolded, somewhere by sirius himself. i was extra layered in jackets by sirius’ orders after being unprepared this morning. but the brisk air still kissed the parts of my face that were exposed. sirius’ hands were warm in mine as he tried his best to not kill me on the way to wherever he was taking me. i had asked him if the blindfold and surprise was necessary. he said he broke up with me before we could have our first valentine’s day as a couple about a year ago, so he needed to go all out for the next 5 years to make up for it. sirius led me into a building, and warmth overtook me again. when sirius slipped off my blind fold, i found that we were in the fencing competition room, and there was a candle light dinner set up on the floor right in front of the mat. “i wanted us to have a dinner to ourselves. i was able to convince my coach to let me borrow her keys to the building,” he explained. i was shocked to say the least, everything was so cute and well thought out, and i know he had help, and i was dying to know the lengths he went to. he helped take my jacket off then led me by my hand to the table as we sat on the floor. i noticed the plates were empty but then he pulled out a paper bag clearly from my favorite restaurant. inside was chicken tenders and fries… when i tell you i almost cried in that moment. he filled our plates and we had another meal of eating with us chatting here and there.

5:41pm 🏹 when we finished eating he wiped off his hands then jogged to a spot behind the viewing area in the competition room and pulled out a gift basket. the most cliche, sickeningly sweet, basket of an assortment of gifts. a quick summary would be that it included energy drinks, candy, snacks, a couple oracle decks, a new bottle of his exact cologne, a stuffie of my favorite animal, books on greek mythology and hellenic polytheism, a lego set for us to build together, and a bunch of other beautiful things. when i first laid eyes on it i just went, “what the fuck.” i was shocked to say the least. it was so much. like quantity wise. and i know he’s rich, hell i am too. but it was so much. and he was smiling so hard. after i took it all in, “come here,” is all i said as i put my arms out to ask for a hug from him. he got up and hugged me, nuzzling his nose into my neck again. and i think at that moment i was in a very raw state. we had been through so much, and i had missed him so much in the past year, so i shed a good too many tears. he wiped them away and then kissed me lightly whispering words of affirmation to me. grabbing the basket off the table, sirius sat down on the floor with it. he wanted to explain the reasons why he got every single thing for me. when he finished he placed the basket to the side and then kissed me deeply. the only reason we didn’t have valentine’s day sex right then and there is because i was worried we’d get caught in the fencing room. when we got back to the dorm later that night and james was still gone, sirius suggested we put a sock on the door knob.

thinking of the fact that i was partly raised in france and had a french father in my modern!marauders reality. and that i’m fluent in the french language. and how the first time i meet sirius, he immediately wants to be my friend because i can speak french just like him. and how as friends the two of us speak french around each other as much as we can. if it’s just us in the room? french. if someone is there but we aren’t talking to them? french. if we want to talk about something and have the people in the room not know? french. numerous people, but especially james, will tell us to stop. and we never will. french is almost like a love language of ours 😭😭

[rrezshifts]

💍 💋 + 🍒 for the s/o ask game ( preferably for your modern ! marauders reality …. )

💍 ⊹ ࣪ ˖ what are some songs that makes you think of them? . . . i’m so glad i get to add another song that reminds me of sirius and i in this reality. this one is From the Start by Laufey, key lyrics:

after sirius broke up with me, and i seemingly “moved on” and got closer with my swim competitor, evan rosier. sirius got intensely jealous. any mention from me about the blonde was heard as an out right love confession to sirius’ ears. sirius had been regretting his decision to break up with me less than a week after doing so. he wanted me back terribly, but felt he shouldn’t want that after what he did to me. he wished and prayed i would make the first move back into his arms because he felt he couldn’t.

💋 ⊹ ࣪ ˖ what are you most excited to experience with your s/o and why? . . . genuinely, speaking french with him. being in our own little bubble, speaking our literal love language, and no one else knows what we’re saying. the intimacy a single word in french can hold just because it is ours and it is spoken just for us. the french language is what cemented our friendship and it became something that gave us a taste of a romance that started something special between us, even if it wasn’t outright romantic at first. but also i’m excited for not just the romantic or the casual conversations but the bickering and the fights. though we won’t have too many genuine fights between us in our lifetime, most of them happen after we were separated or when we were friends and they were more playful. i can, however, imagine that our entire breakup “fight” was spoken in french between the two of us. which made it hurt all that much more. there’s something more meaningful or cutting about the words you hear when they are spoken in your first language, especially when it’s not the language you get to speak often enough. sirius telling me that not being together was what was best for me in the language that was sacred to us, truly painful. but that also means his confession to win me back was all that much more emotional. his pleads will be in french, his tear stained confessions struggling out of his mouth with his accent strong in my ears. and then after that, once back together, the i love you’s whispered in the language, all in my ear. the french terms of endearments kissed into my skin. it’s all i want omgg 😭🙏

🍒 ⊹ ࣪ ˖ do you have any inside jokes with your s/o or funny scenarios? . . . both me and sirius were raised strictly in the culture of the magic world, mind you in different parts of the world, but still. when our friends who had either lived in or have had experience with the non-magic world would take us places there, we seemed kind of stupid. we’ve gotten better over time for sure. but there were times that we wouldn’t know how to act about certain things within the non-magic world. and even as we learned, we would sometimes forget as time went on and it would be a while since our last exposure to the non-magic side of things. and while the worlds started to look more similar as the non-magic world grew in it’s technology, there were semi differences we would get caught up on. so for instance we’d often have to ask remus “what was that called again?” or lily would have to whisper in our ears to help us pay in a non-magical shop. it’s funny to our friends for sure, sirius and i found it a little sad and embarrassing on our part at first but as time went on we’d laugh about it too.

[rrezshifts]

( 💌, 💍, & 🍷 ) for the dr s/o ask game!! ( your modern!marauder dr plss)

YAAYY !! thank you so much for sending in an ask, especially for this reality bc 😭😫 i love it so much!! i don’t have a simple introduction for this reality, but know sirius is my girlfriend in it 🥹💕

💌 ⊹ ࣪ ˖ who confessed first and how did it happen? . . . it depends on what you mean by confessed. i technically confessed my attraction to him first. when we got high at a party during the end of our 6th year, after i had been avoiding him all day because i had a sex dream about him. and we got too close and all my brain could say was “i want to kiss you.” but i wasn’t confessing any sort of love, at this point my romantic feelings were not strong enough for me to classify any love i had for sirius as romantic love type of feelings. early morning after the party, probably around 4am, after me and sirius kissed for hours after my confession, me and him talked. sirius confessed that he had been in love with me for a good few years at this point. our conversation was bitter sweet. because it was a discussion of where we wanted things to go, and i could tell that me saying that i wasn’t ready for a relationship sucked for sirius. but me telling him that i was genuinely attracted to him and did want to explore less platonic avenues with him definitely made him feel better. it was a heartfelt moment and his confession has always had a special place in my heart even in that moment when i felt guilty for not fully reciprocating.

💍 ⊹ ࣪ ˖ what are some songs that makes you think of them? . . . i have an ever growing playlist of songs that make me think of me and sirius’ relationship and it’s called “an annoying french situationship”. i only made it like a few days ago but it has 15ish songs on it! i’m working on adding more. the songs are a mix of happy love songs and songs about heartbreak. an example of a song on this playlist is Decode by Paramore. here are some lyrics:

the song makes me think of me and sirius right after he broke up with me after his worry and self-consciousness spiraled out of control. we went from best friends to the lovers to now seemingly strangers. i feel this song is also symbolic of the anger i felt that came with the confusion after sirius ended things.

🍷 ⊹ ࣪ ˖ what do your s/o and you like to do together? . . . we loooove to talk unfortunately. anything we can talk about we will, and we’ll jump from several random topics in under 20-30 minutes. but we also enjoy walking around stores, looking at the various products we then impulsively buy. we like going out to eat and talking more there, how we don’t run out of things to talk about astounds me. we like to watch tv and movies together, new series and our old faithful shows in our dorm, and new and old movies at theaters and muggle drive-ins. but we honestly love drive-ins so much more because we can talk as loud as we want during the movie. we like to casually smoke together as well and just chill out afterwards. we like dressing up and sneaking out and then sneaking into muggle clubs and parties, we don’t stay for too long, we’re just there for their contrasting atmosphere. we like taking naps together and cuddling. we like to take walks and people watch. we like to kiss, a lot. we also like sex, a lot. but we rarely get the space to do so. but we also help each other study, visit museums/zoos/aquariums, go on cute dates, and spend as much money as we want on each other.

jaw is on the floor😭 I'm obsessed with you two you don't even understand😭

8:07am 💌 i’m woken up to fingers tracing over my skin gently. the tickle of soft touches opened my eyes. the bright light of morning made them burn. and as i turned to shield them, i was met with eyes that were looking back at me like i was heaven. i smiled instantly, shoving my arms back under the covers, wrapping them around the man laying with me, and pulling him into me for a deep hug. his nose dug into the crook of my neck before he flipped me on my back and straddled my hips, attacking my face and neck with kisses. “happy valentine’s day, mon beau,” he mutters in french his voice still hoarse, before going back to kissing my face. when he doesn’t stop and i start giggling at the feather-light touch of his lips, a groan is heard from the other side of the room, “please get a room,” james complains.

10:28am 🍰 the cold winter breeze sliced at my cheeks as we walked through the streets of a small wizard town near campus. my hand was freezing in the harsh february air, but i had no interest in dropping sirius’ hand from mine. walking into the restaurant was a welcomed respite from the cold. “why is it so cold? look, feel my hands,” i whispered as the waitress took us to our table. walking down the row of tables, i placed the back of my hand on an empty space on sirius’ neck. he yelped in response, then jokingly threatened to return my gifts if i did it again. once seated, my eyes scanned the menu, trying to decide if i wanted pancakes or a classic breakfast. i felt sirius kick my feet under the table. i kicked his feet back, looking up at him to find him hiding the lower half of his face behind his menu, clearly amused. he pretended like nothing happened as he put down his menu and asked, “what are you thinking of getting?” i snorted at his strange attempts at flirting as well as the immediate ignorance of it, then answered his very important question. when the waitress came back with our drinks and asked if we were, “ready to order,” sirius ordered the valentine’s day special pancakes, and i ordered the biggest breakfast platter i could. we spent the rest of our breakfast date talking as we shared both the pancakes and platter between us. sirius told me i looked cute when i spoke with my mouth full. i thought he was making fun of me, so i frowned, still with my mouth full. he laughed as he explained that he was 100% serious.

2:34pm 🧸 me and sirius laid in his bed as our favorite show played on a laptop in front of us. my arm rested under his head and my hand was clasped in his as they rested on his shoulder. sirius went to kiss the top of my hand only to drop it quickly after. he jumped up in bed and yelled, “wait there!” i looked at him confused, “and don’t look,” he yells again. i looked down at my lap as i heard his and james’ shared armoire squeak open and plastic rustle. “damn… didn’t think that through.” i hear in english, and i look up at him as he freaks out, “no no!” but i see it immediately, a bouquet of flowers that are a little crumpled from being hidden in a closet for who knows how long. my hand clasps in front of my mouth to stop from giggling. “yeah i know, i bought them too early and had to hide them from you. probably not my smartest move,” sirius explains, back to speaking french again. despite the fact the flowers were a little bent at the stems in certain places, i noticed the flowers were my favorites, and hard to find, hyacinths. i jumped out of his bed and went to him with my hands out, he hands me the flowers. i looked at them for a couple seconds, overwhelmed with love. i placed the flowers down quick before attacking him with a tight hug and then neck and face kisses. he laughs loud and hard, “you like them then?” i pull back shaking the man, “you got me hyacinths, i don’t care what shape they’re in!” sirius lets out a, “yay!” as he grabs my cheeks and pecks my lips quickly, “now let’s go find a vase, do you think lily would have one?”

5:05pm 🕯️i was being led, blindfolded, somewhere by sirius himself. i was extra layered in jackets by sirius’ orders after being unprepared this morning. but the brisk air still kissed the parts of my face that were exposed. sirius’ hands were warm in mine as he tried his best to not kill me on the way to wherever he was taking me. i had asked him if the blindfold and surprise was necessary. he said he broke up with me before we could have our first valentine’s day as a couple about a year ago, so he needed to go all out for the next 5 years to make up for it. sirius led me into a building, and warmth overtook me again. when sirius slipped off my blind fold, i found that we were in the fencing competition room, and there was a candle light dinner set up on the floor right in front of the mat. “i wanted us to have a dinner to ourselves. i was able to convince my coach to let me borrow her keys to the building,” he explained. i was shocked to say the least, everything was so cute and well thought out, and i know he had help, and i was dying to know the lengths he went to. he helped take my jacket off then led me by my hand to the table as we sat on the floor. i noticed the plates were empty but then he pulled out a paper bag clearly from my favorite restaurant. inside was chicken tenders and fries… when i tell you i almost cried in that moment. he filled our plates and we had another meal of eating with us chatting here and there.

ᴍᴀʀᴀᴜᴅᴇʀꜱ ᴜɴɪ ʀᴇᴀʟɪᴛʏ 𝓲𝙣𝖙𝙧𝙤

theodore hermès. is a current hogwarts university first year. the son of a wealthy french pureblood wizard and a indigenous mexican pureblood witch. the born wealthy and elite young wizard was born in france and was raised between there and the americas. when it came time to attend a magical school, his parents chose ilvermorny over beauxbatons. as he attended the american school his parents, as well as him on his breaks, still lived between the two countries. that was until a business venture left both his parents with no option but to find a permanent stay in england (note: as permanent as a wealthy family and boundless magical transportation can get you). before his third year at ilvermorny could start, theodore, nicknamed “theo” or “dior”, and at this moment in time, legally named theodora, transferred to hogwarts secondary school.

y’all wanted a “romantic” fanfic [novel] right?

sirius black. first met theodore with the rest of his friend group, the so-called marauders. theo had sat down for the first dinner feast of the year after being sorted to gryffindor privately when he had first made it on to school grounds. the closest empty seat was right next to the curly haired boy. him and the other three boys were very welcoming, while a girl named lily evans and her two friends were very interested in getting to know theo. as he spoke up, answering any of the seven’s questions, one boy seemed to catch on to theo’s accent. as he was raised multiculturally the accents of both his mother and father melded as they flowed out of his mouth, fighting each other for dominance on certain consonants and vowels. sirius black, after asking dumb questions prior to this moment, asked another, “why does your voice sound like that?” he said. and the blonde haired girl sitting next to lily cackled as james scolded sirius for his rude question. sirius tried to explain himself, muttering on about how it sounded american but also… not. theo laughed at that and explained that he was both american and french. sirius posture shot up as his eyes sparkled with excitement, he started spitting out french. and when theo responded back with exact & perfect french, he jumped up in his seat as he continued the conversation.

james had told sirius that was the exact moment the boy fell in love with theodore hermès, but he would deny it, saying he in fact remembered the exact moment he fell for the boy. it wasn’t too long after the start of their third year, autumn had rolled around. and it seemed the falling leaves were conspiring as they do in most romance novels, cruel fate. sirius and theo were sitting outside, bundled in their robes, and studying for their shared potions class, when a single leaf broke off from a branch above and landed gently in sirius’ hair. so gentle only theo seemed to notice. the boy across from him placed a portion of his hand on sirius’ jaw to maneuver his head towards him, the leaf was easier to grab this way. their eyes danced as they looked in each others eyes for mere milliseconds before theo said “here you go, pesky leaf„ in their shared language, and handed the leaf to him. when theo turned back to his notes, sirius was panicking. he didn’t know what he was feeling, but all of sudden he couldn’t stop thinking about just how much more french theo’s accent got when he spoke the language. and he could still feel the burning of theo’s fingers on his jaw despite how cold they were on his skin. but he pushed it all away, ignoring all of what it could mean for the foreseeable future. that is until he had to prove james wrong about when he fell in love.

sirius’ fourth year at hogwarts is when he accepts he has feelings for theo. after theodora became theodore, transitioning, and despite that sirius’ feelings for him don’t falter or budge, that’s when he knew he was screwed, that it wasn’t a fluke, it was serious. but he kept this to himself . . . or more so away from theo. james, peter and remus knew. so did marlene, and james told lily. when everyone first found out, mind you at different times, each of them had their ooouu’s and ahhhh’s and teasing moments but eventually sirius’ crush just became a norm, it was nothing special and just a part of daily life at hogwarts. theo didn’t necessarily feel the same way for sirius for a while, however. it can’t be said that theo didn’t have certain feelings for sirius. they were just no where near as strong, it was more a intense adoration than anything.

towards the end of their sixth year however is when things had changed. thursday night, or the night before friday, theo had dreamt of sirius. which isn’t saying a lot just from that one sentence, because all his friends have had made appearances in his dreams in the past 4 years. but none of those dreams were like this one. none of those dreams had heavy breathing, sweaty bodies pushed up against each other, whimpers and moans, and pleasure, so much pleasure. his body woke him up abruptly at about 3am that morning, hot flashing, sweating buckets, and yearning. he was too uncomfortable to go back to sleep so he took a shower then sat on his bed and bravely journaled the dream he had that night. after he finished he sat and waited for james to wake up so he could follow him to quidditch practice in hopes for an excuse to stay away from sirius this morning.

the rest of that friday was a near exact replica of the ones before except for two things: 1) everyone, fifth year and up, was eager for classes to end so gryffindor’s dorm party could start sooner rather than later and 2) theo couldn’t look sirius in the eye. he couldn’t even talk to sirius for too long because then he would have to stare at him head on, and he couldn’t stand it. but despite that, theo couldn’t help but stare at sirius when he wasn’t looking. feeling a fucked up mix of shame and lust. when the day ended and the party started theo kept away from his usual band of friends, instead finding his good friends, florence, sybil, xenophilius, pandora, alice, and frank. the random group chatted for a bit before splitting up with their own objectives in mind. theo left with xeno to go smoke, and not even two hits in, barely buzzed, he spilled to the blonde about his dream he had the night before. the man listened intently before he spotted something and then nodded in its direction as if to point. and when theo looked over to what held xeno’s attention he found sirius lounging on the couch staring directly at him. his gaze didn’t move, he didn’t go to look away, almost as if it were a test, a game of chicken after theo practically avoided looking at him all day. his blinks were slow, like a cats, and his stare seemed so serious as his hips shifted on the couch as he continued to slouch and stare, crossing him arms.

theo lifted the blunt he was holding in the air, like an invitation. and immediately sirius’ air of mystery lifted in that moment and he shrugged with a look on his face that said “eh why not,” a joke, ha-ha. as sirius made his way over, xenophilius left so sirius could take his place. theo took another hit as sirius sat down and blew the smoke in his face. sirius snatched the blunt from him and did it back, making them both laugh. the next ten minutes the two of them sat there in silence, it was nice. but then sirius spoke up, “you’ve been avoiding me. or ignoring me. one of the two, maybe even both.” in french . . . he sounded so pretty when he spoke in french. “i’m sorry.” is all theo could think to say. he reached for the blunt in sirius’ hand but he pulled it away and out of reach “i just want to know what’s going on, theo.” and in this moment theo hadn’t moved since he reached for a smoke, the drugs and sirius making his mind fail his body. he just stared, then looked at sirius’ lips and before he could think— “i want to kiss you.” sirius’ eyes widened, and so did theo’s at the sight and he immediately sat as far back from sirius as possible, unable to say anything else, his mind now failing his mouth.

sirius was shocked, he kind of never thought this would happen. and his mind was battling itself and wondering if it’s just the weed that made theo say that, and if it’s even worth going for only to be disappointed when the high wears off. and on the other side theo is mentally yelling “say something!” both to sirius and himself. hoping silence isn’t all there will be. he gives up on waiting though and goes to speak, english this time, “listen, sirius, i ju-” and then he’s cut off by sirius grabbing him by the scruff on the back of his head and kissing him. sirius then moved to hold the side of theo’s face with the blunt still pinched between his fingers. theo was shocked but gave in happily. the blunt was put out fast and the two spent the rest of the party making out in the corner while their friends feel like they just witnessed the second coming of christ as life long agnostics. pure shock but also just full on hyped.

the morning after theo had explained to sirius that he’s most definitely attracted to him, and while he’s not ready to be in a relationship, he wants to explore the less platonic side of things with him. however, during the middle of summer, right before their seventh and final year at hogwarts, they started officially dating. things were perfect. amazing. beautiful. they both felt so loved and theo had never been as in love with anyone as he had been with sirius. they went on dates, got each other gifts, spent too much time together, took each other’s virginities, said i love you. but during the winter break of their seventh year, sirius’ problems with his parents got revived and theo was brought into it by association. and while everything got solved, sirius, for the few weeks after being back from vacation, couldn’t stop kicking himself. couldn’t stop worrying about if it happened again in the future. then he spiraled thinking that he wasn’t good enough for theo, that the life he would be giving him wasn’t one he deserved. throughout this time he was isolating from theo, and everytime theo tried to talk to sirius about it, when he felt he knew what sirius was feeling and tried to reassure him, it went nowhere. sirius eventually decided he wasn’t what theo needed, and he broke it off with him.

theo was heartbroken. he cried for weeks, had to stay in lily, mary, and marlene’s dorms for a majority of the remainder of the school year. it started as a week and then more and more of theo’s stuff left his and the boys’ dorm. the boys were scolding sirius trying to convince him to take it back. telling him he was stupid for letting his thoughts get to this point. but their words and theo’s hurt only convinced him even more that breaking it off was what was necessary. that was until the girls got to him. they changed perspectives for him pretty fast, but he felt it was too late to fix things by the time he figured it out. eventually theo was required to move back in with the boys when mcgonagall found out theo swapped rooms. he wasn’t in their dorms often though. and theo rarely spoke or participated when hanging out with the boys while sirius was there. it was at this time that he grew closer to people outside of the group of marauders, needing an escape. not being able to look at out be near sirius.

the boys and theo, many years prior, had planned to travel the world for a several weeks after graduating. it was partly theo’s idea, but it was a labor of love from them all. after the breakup theo said he wasn’t going, that james could take lily in his place. but james had practically begged theo to join them when heard. it wasn’t until james got remus to beg too that he agreed to go. the many weeks in forced proximity with sirius made theo remember that he still loved him. so very much. and that hurt, but it also comforted him. he was able to build back a sort of rapport with his now ex boyfriend. by the start of their first semester at university everything was normal again within the marauders. to the point that when theo’s roommate request got screwed up and he was in a dorm with james and sirius rather than remus and peter, he didn’t try and fix it.

however for theo, getting over sirius meant that he doesn’t have to be romantically or sexually celibate. as soon as his freshman year started he was getting to know people, going on shitty first dates, and he told himself if the possibility of a hook up came along he’d take it (spoiler: he never did). he was still thinking of sirius, and that pain of remembering the good with him never went away. every shitty first date reminded him of what he had with him and that it was going to be hard to replace. and sirius wasn’t blind, he saw theo leave their dorm dressing nicer than usual. and he wasn’t deaf, he heard lily talk to james about theo’s dates. and he just wants to rip at his chest until his heart is out and he can’t feel it ache anymore.

sirius felt the worst though when theo no longer went on shitty first dates. he felt worse when theo’s swimming rival, evan rosier, started to anger him less, and they started hanging out more. and maybe sirius is insane but his body language around the blonde was changing too. sirius was going crazy. and after all this shit he now has to decide . . . is he going to watch all of this unfold and wallow in self pity, or is he going to try and get theo back. little does he know, despite everything, sirius won’t have to do much to win him back.
