What if reg was an animagi and he could turn into a duck.
Imagine walking down the hogwarts corridor and you see james and sirius being chased by a duck with a wand in its mouth.
Idk just something about fussy duck reg sitting on top of james' head quacking at everyone
“what kind of things did you do?”
and it’s regulus listing all the horrible things he’s done since getting the mark to killing the dark lord
“only my husband knew that / so i guess that makes him you”
and it’s james still accepting him despite despite despite because he did it to keep them safe and made his way back to him in the end
GIGGLING I LOVE THEM
Regulus: My future partner must be brave, strong, intelligent, successful and organized.
James: *steps on a caterpillar and proceeds to drop to their knees and sob while apologizing profusely*
Regulus: That one. I want that one.
Incorrect quotes! 📖🩶
- Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals
Sirius Black is left handed
Remus first learns this when they are sitting with their hands interlocked doing work and Sirius just casually writes his essay with his left hand because his right is holding Remus’
And Remus is shocked because how has he never noticed??
And he’s not writing in his perfect Black cursive, his handwriting with his left hand is a lot messier, a lot more ‘him’
But the next day he is taking notes in class with his right hand and the perfect handwriting is back and Remus is so confused
So he finally asks Sirius about it and he tells him about how he was born a leftie
But his parents couldn’t have a defected heir, so they forced him to learn with his right hand
So now he can write pretty well with both but just defaults to the right because that’s what he’s always done
And Remus just decides at every opportunity to sit on Sirius’ right and hold his hand so he has to write with his left
Because it’s so beautiful and true and him
james to regulus
“I can’t make you understand. I can’t make anyone understand what is happening inside me. I can’t even explain it to myself.”

you know a fic is good when it has this
As a kid learning about the holocaust, I never understood how people could let Nazis rise to power. But now I’m watching it happen in real time.
