regulus: ... how?

sirius: how dumb does reggie think you are?

james: sometimes he leaves me pictures of food instead of a shopping list

this is literally James Potter I'm not even sorry

sobbing hysterically

"Don't worry, Reggie. Big brother is here. Come on, lie down soon, otherwise it's cold." A gentle whisper. Sirius holds the blanket up in an inviting gesture. The storm is raging outside the window again.

"Can I really stay with you until morning, Sirius? Promise me you won't tell Mom!" A confidential whisper in response. Oh, Regulus. How you will treasure these minutes in the future.

"This witch doesn't need to know. Sleep, little star. A big dog will guard your dreams." Jokingly. With the same tenderness. And hugs that can close from all the malice of the world.

Lily: *wrapping presents* hey who took the scissors?

Remus: not me

Sirius: wasn’t me

Marlene: i’m gonna just throw my presents at people so i don’t have to wrap them, so i haven’t got them!

Mary: sorry not me Lily

Peter: i haven’t seen them!

James: Reggie was here a second ago wasnt he?…

Lily: *nervously* yeah he was…

Sirius: *jumping up* EVERYONE KNOWS THAT REGULUS BLACK IS NOT ALLOWED TO BE UNSUPERVISED WITH SCISSORS.

Remus: darling he only attacked you with them ONE TIME

Sirius: that’s what he wants you to think.

Sirius, smugly: when I was your age-

Remus: When I was your height

Sirius:

Sirius: fuck you.
