And They Both Call Lily "my Flower"

and they both call Lily "my flower"

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

Regulus: I hate you

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

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

i like imagining that sirius gushed about regulus to his new friends at hogwarts, but also talked about how worried he was for him because he was all alone in that house. peter felt bad, and would write regulus a letter everyday, telling him sirius loved him and was worried and he was too, in some strange way.

peter was confused when he waved and smiled at regulus on the way to hogwarts on reg’s first year, because the boy glared and turned the other direction, looking offended that someone like him would dare to even look at him.

regulus didn’t receive a single one of his letters, they were all turned to ash by the hand of one certain woman.

Regulus coming up with baby names Florimel and Aster after flowers/stars. 😭

july 10. snitch. 215 words. @jegulus-microfic

James wakes up to a light tap on his bicep, and a whispered “Got it.” 

He grumbles, letting Regulus know he was awake. He’s expecting his boyfriend to explain why he tapped him, but instead, all he gets is another tap—on his hip this time—and a huff in frustration. 

“Reg, love,” he says, voice rough from sleep, “Why’re you tapping me?”

“Oh, did I wake you?”

He did, but James isn’t about to make him feel bad when he probably would’ve woken on his own soon enough. “No, I was already up. Did you need something?” He feels yet another tap on the back of his neck and a quiet cheer from Regulus. “Love?”

“Hmm?” 

“Why do you keep tapping me?”

“Oh, I like to see if I can catch your snitch tattoo under my fingers. It’s nice to watch it fly all around your body.”

A burst of warmth floods through James’ chest. He’s never said anything specifically, but he got that tattoo for Regulus. It was nice that not only did he enjoy how it looked on James’ body, but that he’d found a small joy in being able to try and catch it. It was moments like these that reminded James just how capable of childlike wonder Regulus still was, despite everything.
