Lily and Regulus both loves bookstores, and James loves them, so he doesn't mind that they like to spend too much time here.

James is right there, with bags of other goodies in hand, slowly following his partners as they have a goal of going through every aisle of fiction in their impossibly huge bookstore. From time to time, one of them picks up a book and reads the annotation out loud, comments on the cover design, or simply points to the spine saying, “I've seen reviews of this, we should try it,” or “I heard it's terribly written, don't even look at it.”

Eventually, they find themselves standing in front of shelves with incredibly beautiful editions of world classics, looking at books they have read several times, but still love so much that they are happy to turn the pages right there and look for their favorite moments.

James himself is drawn to the comics and art books section, looking for something new for his gaming collection. He flips through the pages of the latest magazines; looks at the price tags, and horrified, puts the art book he wants back on the shelf, thinking he'll buy it some other time. But later, at the checkout, he sees Regulus paying for a stack of their new books and Lily for the same artbook, just ceremoniously handing the purchase to James with a big smile, while Regulus gently kisses him on the cheek.

okay but like. jegulus. and it’s James helping give Regulus his T-Shots.

that’s it. that’s the post.

Tinkerbell Secret of the Wings is still an obsession but at least it gave me some Jegulus inspiration 🤷‍♂️

you said to send you headcanons to elaborate on so…take your pick if you want

-regulus who can’t sleep without sleeping potions

-pandora/emmeline/dorcas who makes regulus read a muggle book every week so he isn’t such a Pureblood Dick

-regulus that literally never learned how to laugh, so it’s just the most broken sound you’ll ever hear (on the VERY rare occasion that it happens)

-italian evan rosier

-barty hating whoever the 4th skittles roommate was so badly that regulus bullies him to the point he switches to durnstrang

-regulus buying his friends little gifts in hogsmead all the time but he’s too Regulus™️ to admit they’re from him so he just leaves them on their beds or something

-regulus being friends with Moaning Myrtle (he just vibes with her idk)

i'm not picking, anon.

i want all of them.

we're going backwards cause why not

moaning myrtle and reg very much vibe!!! reg seeking comfort from myrtle when he realizes he that he has to choose between taking the mark or keeping james (if you're a starchaser person)

i multiship like crazy and it's honestly a problem but whatever!!!

no regulus just putting gifts in random places is so real. everybody knows it's him, but everyone except barty has gotten bored of trying to force a confession out of him

barty doesn't care if he admits it, he just bother reg for funsies

for the 3rd to last: what's a durnstrang 😭 i'm slow

italian evan rosier... ok so i never really thought of this, but it kinda works. i always saw evan rosier as french ngl

and bcj as italian

but that would be cool too

shit this is giving me more starchaser ideas (the broken laugh one) OH MY GODDDD

james making regulus laugh for the first time, hearing that sound, and making it his life mission to make regulus laugh more

it's a life mission that never really ends

i laughed out loud at the 2nd one for like 5 minutes and the person next to me is very concerned

but like tbh regulus was raised in a family that very much looks down on anyone who isn't a pureblood, and he was probably a Pureblood Dick until the girls got sick of it and threw classical literature at him

he grows to be fond of it actually

but nobody can know that!! he's got a rEpUtAtIoN tO uPhOlD!!!

also, regulus needs sleeping potions to sleep

he's a chronic insomniac and so are most of the skittles imo

yummy
