"I think James and Regulus are seeing each other," Sirius murmured, resting his head against Remus's chest.

"Yeah?' Remus responded, placing his book down so he could focus on his boyfriend's words. "Why do you think that?"

"James keeps staring at him at meals. And they're both smiling more. And he had a love bite the other day," Sirius grimaced, trying not to think of his little brother being the one to create that bruise.

"Hm..I can see it. How do you feel about it?" Remus asked, rubbing his back absentmindedly.

He thought about that. The way the two of them must have had multiple clandestine meetings and secretive exchanges. It bothered him, that neither trusted him to say anything.

But he also remembered how much more both of them had been smiling, lately.

"I can get over it," he shrugged, rolling his eyes. "But I'll be giving them a lot of shit for it."

"As you should," Remus chuckled.

Time for my @coartremix piece! This is a remix of this beautiful piece by @artsyunderstudy . Ashton’s art was so sweet, I wanted more quiet moments! So here is a peaceful morning for them <3

And if I say that the reason everybody calls Andromeda Andy is because of Narcissa. If I say it’s because Narcissa couldn’t pronounce her full name as a baby and she became Andy.

@aesthetic-writer18 I hope u like the thoughts

Regulus: My back hurts.

Remus, walking into the room: Take the spine out.

Regulus & Dorcas microfic

Okay. First things first, Regulus Black is fine.

He's fine. Everything that just happened meant nothing to him at all. So what if Lily likes girls? It doesn't mean anything to him. He couldn't care less.

So what if the way she described Mary felt like he felt at James? It didn't mean he was in love with James. It meant nothing, nothing at all.

"Reg? You alright?"

It's just Dorcas. She's standing on the staircase to the Astronomy tower where Regulus comes to stargaze. "Fine," he calls back. "Everything is perfectly fine."

He can literally feel her raised eyebrow, even if he's not looking at her.

"Bullshit," she says plainly.

Regulus sighs. "Dorcas, did you know girls can like girls?"

Her footsteps pad over to him, and he looks over to her. Her hair is tucked into a bonnet and she's makeup-less. She looks tired and puzzled.

"Reg, you know I like girls, right?"

He stares at her, shocked.

"You didn't," she sighs. "Well, I do. Never fancied on a guy in my whole damn life. And Dora and I have a bet going on how long it'll take Barty and Evan to realize they're gay for each other."

Barty and Evan?

"What's brought this on?" Cas asks, sitting down beside him.

He thinks about saying nothing, briefly, but Dorcas knows him too well. "Lily likes Mary," he says. "They're dating, I think."

"They are," she supplies.

"I didn't know you could do that," Regulus whispers, and he can feel every emotion he's ever suppressed flood him at once, all the feelings just errupt inside him, and he doesn't know what to do but collapse into Dorcas's arms. He feels the tears on his cheeks and he didn't ask them to be there, and he still doesn't know why.

"Oh, Reg," Dorcas says, holding him. She's not judging him, not calling him weak, not doing anything but accepting him. It's so foreign that the tears only fall harder. "Who is it?"

He doesn't offer an answer, and she doesn't ask for one. They just sit there with just the stars and Regulus's tears to keep them company.
