Remus: Whats Wrong James?

Remus: what’s wrong James?

James: Reg was mean to me today :(

Sirius: really? He’s usually too well behaved for that

James: usually he just smiles politely when I talk to him which is annoying but he proper lost it before

Sirius: he’s only mean to people he trusts not to hurt him for it

James: …are you saying what I think you’re saying?

Sirius: *sighs* yes prongs, I think he likes you more than he lets on

James: :D

Regulus: I hate you

James: *in his head* enemies to lovers, slow burn, angst with happy ending, 300k+ words

Headcanon that Sirius always wants affection from Regulus, but he is also very aware of his boundaries:

It's 4am and Sirius and Regulus find themselves in the kitchen at the same time but they don't speak. They just sort of nod to each other and continue doing whatever it is they came to do.

When Sirius is about to leave the room, he stops for a moment and sets down his coffee, turning around to face Regulus with his arms open wide in invitation.

Sirius half expects it when Regulus simply shakes his head 'no' and he nods in quiet understanding, allowing his arms to fall to his sides.

He's about to pick up his coffee again and leave, but instead, he smiles at Regulus and lifts one hand from his side, offering a fist bump instead.

And Regulus just rolls his eyes, but not without the tiny smile that finds its way to his lips because even as he lazily slaps the top of Sirius' fist, not even putting in the effort to give him a real fist bump, Sirius's face still lights up in that same grin that he would have if Regulus had accepted his offer for a hug in the first place.

Then Sirius picks up his coffee and says, over his shoulder as he leaves, "Love you!"

To which Regulus responds as he always does, in a tone that suggests otherwise,

"Hate you."

Barty, whilst high: Who even decided that skeletons are scary because personally I would be much more fucking terrified if the muscular system started walking around

and they both call Lily "my flower"

James calls Regulus "my star" and Regulus calls James "my sun"
