Some characterisations of Death Eaters so I won't forget

This is in first wizarding era so I WILL give the ones came from Azkaban softer personalities.

Bellatrix: She's ruthless, she's delusional about Voldy these stays. She likes children. She's the one who sent Neville away. But she forgot it in Azkaban. I have to give every death eater a muggle-related trauma or else I die. She's a seer and she sees war all the time on the back of her head.

Rodolphus: I interpret Dark Arts like an addiction and he's addicted, beyond repair. Bellatrix helps him. (By giving him more)They are actually BFF's and He married Bellatrix so she can be in Voldy's inner circle.

Rabastan: Didn't think about yet.

Lucius: Book Lucius, loving husband and a father with bad political background and hunger for power. His mother is a half-blood, there is that, he's insecure about it. And his beef with Arthur comes from that, he's more pure-blood than Lucius. LoL. She has Xeno tho. There is some Malfoy family lore, about why they are all only children. And this is very important to me. He was really imperioed to torture muggles. Mulciber was testing how far he can go about making other wizards cast spells. Everybody was questioning why Lucius was sitting there and looking pretty while everyone else dirty their hands,(because Abraxas was funding everything) and this was the solution. And this was the reason why he never searched for Voldy. He's also trans because T4T Lucissa is everything to me.

Mulciber: My babygirl. He has no excuse, he's evil without a reason, even Voldy is somehow scared of him. BUT he loves Severus and Avery, very protective of them. Oh, also, He's a half blood and he killed his mother.

Avery: I needed a forced death eater somewhere because Voldy in fact forces people to be death eaters. So he's here. Not because he was a muggle rights activist or anything, he canonically bullied muggle-borns, he just can think rationally and fears Voldemort.

Igor: Book igor. I need to read him again. He's in it for Dark Arts and Power, doesn't care about blood supremacy much, uses it to his gain. He's technically a pure blood but not from an old family. Think of it like he had 4 muggle born grandparents.

Severus: The cuntiest man alive, he always slays. I'm in love with him. He was softer when he was young. Still boyish with Mulciber and Avery. He's a genius so while Lucius sits and looks pretty he invents spells and makes potions next to him. This is why he didn't have to kill anybody. (I still don't know how this is possible tho, I understand it with Lucius and Avery because their parents were in it but Severus? I don't know) And he's mentoring Regulus (This is a part of why Sirius hates him so much)

Evan: Stone cold bitch, double spy, most he would do to kill someone while Mulciber is torturing them to end their misery and say "You're making too much noise" He's a freak. Doesn't have a moral code but he isn't a blood supremacist. He has other reasons to be there and he would do anything to get it.

Wilkes: They are the most annoying bitch ever. But besties with Evan. They are in it because of their parents but they aren't complaining much. They do the job they are given.

Regulus: Sweet baby, everybody thinks what the fuck is he doing here? But Regulus is determined to prove himself (He couldn't prove himself, they were right) An absolute looser. Everybody likes him, geniunely because he's so kind. His muggle related trauma isn't decided yet but I'm leaning towards organ traficking turned medical experiment. He's an obscruial. He lives in muggle London, it's not impossible.

Barty is still a baby so I won't write him as a DE BUT imagine an evil scientist even when he's like 15.

Same with Carrows. But they are ***babies and they are half bloods so Voldy number 2 and 3.

Panic Attack

Summary: Your best friends hadn't noticed your anxiety all day, but what happens when your enemies do?

Warnings: Anxiety, panic attack, angst, please let me know if I missed anything

Themes: Fluff, some angst 

Disclaimer: I do not know if it is cannon that Lucius, Evan and Rabastan went to school with the marauders but I am using it in this fic. If you do not like Slytherins please do not read this fic.

Sorry it's short.

You had been on the edge of a panic attack all day. You weren't sure what happened but from the moment you woke up anxiety followed you like a dark cloud. Your friends had failed to notice but you didn't want to bother them.

You were in your last class of the day, Gryffindors and Slytherins. The inevitable panic attack was getting closer, fear rising in your chest making it hard to breathe. Your leg was bouncing under your desk and your hands were shaking and fiddling on your desk. But the friends that were surrounding you failed to notice anything was wrong.

But your laboured breathing and panicked eyes seemed to have caught the attention of a blonde haired boy and his friends. Lucius Malfoy caught your eye before nudging his friends. Evan Rosier and Rabastan Lestrange both looked over to you, sensing your panic from across the room.

This worried you more, afraid that they would call it out or bully you when the class ended. You glanced at James on your right, but like usual he was oblivious to everything around him other than Lily Evans who was in the seat in front of him. You then glanced at Remus to your left but he was too focused on taking notes and making Sirius pay attention to notice the desperate glance.You could feel the anxiety rise up your chest and wrap around your lungs and neck. Your breathing became quicker and tears threatened to fall down your face.

After what felt like an eternity, Professor Flitwick called class to an end and you grabbed your book bag and rushed out of class, not waiting for your friends or for any extra work to do over the weekend. You were so focused on breathing and not crying until you got to an empty bathroom that you didn't hear the quick footsteps behind you.

 A gentle hand grabbed your arm and pulled you sideways into the Prefects bathroom. You let out a small yelp of surprise. Warm, strong arms wrapped around you and you didn't have the energy to check who it was. The panic attack finally took over you. Your whole body was shaking and tears were running down your face. Muted voices whispered sweet comforts in your ear, hands rubbing your back and arms.

Once the panic started to die down, the voices became more clear.

"Shhh, it's alright, we've got you," Evan Rosier's voice came through first.

"Just breathe, it will stop soon," Lucius Malfoy's voice next.

"Easy, you're alright," Rabastan Lestrange's last.

Realising you were being comforted and held by three Slytherins you panicked again, pushing yourself out of the warm arms that turned out to be Lucius'.

"Easy now," Rabastan said.

"Are you alright?" Lucius asked.

"What- what are you doing?" You asked, head still foggy and chest still tight.

"You had a panic attack you needed someone to help calm you down," Evan explained, voice gentle and worried.

Why would Slytherins be worried about a simple Gryffindor? Someone who was friends with the boys that pranked them endlessly?

The confusion shone out on your face and all three of them took notice.

"Just because you're a Gryffindor doesn't mean we can't help you," Lucius assured.

You only just took notice of your hands still shaking.

"Can we help?" Evan checked.

Anxiety covering any thoughts or worry you nodded. Warm arms embraced you again. The scent of cologne, pine trees and musk welcomed you as the three boys continued to whisper sweet comforts in your ear.

After you had calmed down, the boys asked if you wanted to go back to your friends, to which you shook your head, not ready to face them again just yet. So they took you to the Slytherin common room. 

Despite your worry they told you everything would be fine, and to your surprise they were right. As much as you had been coaxed to think Slytherins were mean and heartless, they all welcomed you with open arms and the three boys stayed by your side the whole time. While some Slytherins were bitter a Gryffindor was in their common room, they never outright bullied you or made fun of you and a lot gave you tips for anxiety and helped you calm down with horrible jokes and bad impressions. 

So I saw ezra miller live

And let me tell you they're God's finest creation

Spare some rabastan lestrange for the needy pls🤲 (i’m the needy and i’d like to know what you think about his dynamic with his brothers)

Sigh, fine I’ll guess I’ll spare some pennies. Thank you for the ask! This is kinda scatter brained and kinda focused on Rodolphus to like parallel/paint how the brothers are together with they are separate and yeah I dunno I threw up

So usually I internalize whatever @florsial (formal apology to you pookie, Im about to act out of line 🫶) says about Rabastan because we tend to agree on things surrounding him but I think we definitely view Rodolphus differently. Which is fine, he barely exists as a character and I think it’s just representative of how we fundamentally view sibling relationships differently. Like I don’t know what it is with me, but I feel the need ti make every sibling relationship I write for either fanfiction or my own work complicated as hell.

So Rodolphus Lestrange. I think he’s a lot like Orion Black. Like he probably even looked up to him kind of when he grew up, (which is kinda funny because Rodolphus probably isn’t much younger than him if at all considering my headcanon that both walburga and Orion were young when they had both their children to kind of get it out of the way) and you can see that in like a lot of how he just is. Hes ‘stoic’ but actually just doesn’t feel a lot of emotions and doesn’t pretend he does, he’s probably like a hair away from being an alcoholic but he doesn’t drink because he knows that (unlike Orion who is very much an alcoholic), hes antisocial and physically annoyed around people because he doesn’t understand why they are as ‘efficient’ as he is and looks down on all of them.

He’s very work oriented, so much so that he doesn’t really have a life outside of it at all. He’s always been the twin the family knew to count on and he always liked having the title so he never had a rebellious stage or any real anger towards his expectations beyond being tired at the end of a particularly grueling work day. I think the only work hes expected to do that he actively doesn’t work towards doing is producing heirs. He doesn’t like kids, he thinks they’re loud and messy and they get in the way of a schedule. It’s like the only thing him and Bellatrix agree on since she also wants nothing to do with kids. (Also quick note on their marriage, I think they pretty much ignore each other and that’s their idea of what they’ll be like forever. When in public together they put on the ‘better than you’ couple mask but in every other scenario they live completely separate lives and actively avoid each other or they’ll find something to fight about.) like the general vibe I could sum him up with is, yes he’s Rabastan’s twin, but everyone who’s ever talked with him assumes he’s like a decade older and just aged well.

So to contrast that with Rabastan, who was never really expected to be anything and never proved anyone wrong, he’s the sort of kid his mother defends no matter what but he father actively tries to forget about. The exact sort Rodolphus looks down on. He can’t help it’s his brother, he’s still below him. And that would be easier to accept if Rabastan stopped proving it over and over. He had to act out in school, he had to move where mother couldn’t find at seventeen, he had to preach to the family that they were ‘immoral’ or whatever, and then he had to preach it to a child, and then he had to marry the child. Like, Rodolphus isn’t a good man by many means, but his lack of feeling or empathy towards people gives him a more head on view of them. And his head on view of his brother is that he’s useless, dramatic, and so desperate to be anything he’ll lie to a little girl to get her to view him that way. And not to say Rodolphus is any better since he witnessed first hand what his brother was doing, he literally walked in on the two hiding away to make out in a corner when regulus was still fifteen and his brother was the same age as himself and just turned back around and never mentioned it to anyone. A truly good person probably would’ve done something. Good thing that’s not what he’s trying to be.

(Also unrelated but I wanna circle back to a point @florsial has that I love about how Rabastan and Regulus are a couple who tries to nuclear and domestic but fails, I feel like that’s a joke on its own especially in this context. The idea that Rodolphus is the nuclear working man so Rabastan must parallel him by being a family man, he just isn’t. Yes he’s closer with his wife than his brother is, and yes that could be something he has over Rodolphus but pretty much no one in their family is proud of Rabastan for his teenage wife and it’s not like their perfect or anything.)

Rodolphus has probably told Rabastan he thinks this only once since he’s usually content to be quiet about it. He probably broke and yelled about how Rabastan will never be anything ro even get his shit together and it won’t matter because no one has hope he will and it hurts because Rodolphus was never given that leeway and it must be fucking nice to have. Rabastan probably doubles back with how much it must be nice for anyone to give a shit about you, to not only exoect things from you but love you even more when you deliver. They probably kept fighting until Rodolphus, as always, gets tired and shuts it down and goes home.

Because even a man who feels nothing has breaking points, especially when Rabastan keeps fucking pushing for one. And that was their relationship a lot of their life, I think. Rabastan desperately wanting to be seen and Rodolphus who is willingly blind. When they were younger that was ok, little kids before hogwarts just played together until father came to take Rodolphus away, growing boys at hogwarts who slowly drift apart when one doubles down on academics and the other found there’s more to do (and not for lack of desperate trying on the seconds behalf.) and then they’re grown up and neither can place what really happened. They’re sure they used to love each other, at least they think so. And they don’t know what happened, because something must have happened. Right?

Yeah I dunno it’s hard to continuously explain but I think what’s tragic about them is that it’s needless. Rabastan could try ti be better and it would not only help his relationships but himself, Rodolphus could try ti be more and he same would happen to him. If either brother were better at being human then they would be better at loving each other. But they’re not, so they can’t.

Rabastan lestrange…stinky man…weirdo… (he plagues my thoughts)

Same. Same. Regrettably so.

Every day it's just no thoughts. Just him, his complicated relationship with his twin brother, his mock marriage, and his silver armor in the form of layered necklaces, finger guards, and heavy girdles. He sits quietly in the corner near Regulus in a DE meeting and the two retire after and are never seen again for the rest of the night. Just picturing them sitting across from each other while having a meal in silence with only "Mon amour, Mon ami" by Marie Laforêt playing in the background.

And him in a Modern Au with his stupid expensive Rolex collection and inappropriate age gap relationship with Regulus. He constantly skips out on family dinners unless they are hosted by his mother. Most liked by the media in his famously wealthy families on both sides because he's the perfect vision of what every teenage girl with daddy issues wants. He's getting verbally mauled and ripped apart in the Pantheon's group chat for none of Regulus' friends like him and also in messages and hangouts between Regulus and Sirius who also doesn't like him.

Thinking about him creating spells to do more damage because every hit counts. Every flinch, step back, and slight mark of red on skin makes him smile because he knows in a physical or magical altercation no one can overtake him. His ability to fight defines him and he will furnish whatever he has on hand, a fist, a wand, and blade, etc etc etc

He's a weirdo to us and almost everyone who isn't an older, rich pureblood. I think he's absolutely pathetic actually. Every interaction with Rodolphus leaves in him a bitter mood for hours and he's constantly looking for Regulus' attention.

Thinking about Rodolphus and his ability to just keep a straight face in any scenario. Quick thinking and never often panics. Literally thinking about him casually sipping wine with a dead straight face and no words as everyone around him gets into screaming matches about politics. He does not care. He wins the idgaf war in every scenario.

And then, there is his brother. An emotional and volatile Rabastan who would've fw ice cream on the couch on a Tuesday night while sobbing his woes out while his husband watches art restoration videos on his phone and mindlessly patting Rabastan's back. He has a tank of fish with all their names memorized and takes personal offense when anyone forgets which is which. He overthinks situations and sometimes has to step outside to take a deep breath because someone commented on how his suit looks familiar. And so very, expressive. He cannot lie for the fucking life of him.

Idk... Dare I say rab and reg?

The number of puns Sirius would make if he gets together with Rodolphus or Rabastan and takes up Lestrange

Would you mind making some edits of the death eaters? Lol I kinda just want to see some cool stuff of Bellatrix, Regulus, Evan, the Lestrange brothers, Snape, Lucius, Barty Crouch Jr., the Carrow twins, Greyback and Dolahov that's. Ya know. Not murder-y. Prickish.

The Young Deatheaters
