#james x regulus

Sirius: So how is it going with James?

Regulus: It’s good but I think he’s still being way too cautious if I’m being honest

Remus: Cautious? Prongs?

Regulus: Yeah! I feel like he’s more forward but he just doesn’t want to show me that yet. I mean we’re on our sixth date you know? I don’t want to talk about my favourite movie, I want to talk about what you gonna do to me!

Regulus: You’re gonna **** me, **** me, ****** me? *****me? But that’s okay because it’s mutual I’ll ***** you too!

Sirius: …that’s my brother!

"Tell me why we have to do this again?" Regulus asked, wiping a hand over his forehead as he stretched, taking a quick break from weeding.

"To keep the garden tidy," James said. "We don't want the weeds overtaking the vegetables."

"Yes, I understand that Potter," he said. "But why can we just vanish them? Why do we have to labour out here under this horrible sun?"

"Don't worry, you get used to it after a while," James grinned. "Builds character or something at least."

"Right," Regulus grumbled, yanking out another weed and throwing it in the bucket.

"Careful," James exclaimed. "You didn't get the roots of that one, here. Otherwise they'll grow back."

"Hello boys, how are you going?" Effie asked, coming out with a plate of biscuits. "These are for you, and there's homemade lemonade inside if you're getting thirsty."

"Thanks mum," James said, taking the plate from her and offering one to Regulus.

"Sirius and Remus are almost finished painting the fence, and as soon as they're done they can come and help you two." She smiled, leaving them with the biscuits and hurrying back inside.

"She's turned us all into her little servants," Regulus said mournfully, eyeing all of the weeding they still had left to do.

"Yeah, but we get her homemade baking in return," James said. "So it all evens out."

"Her baking is good," Regulus said, biting down on another cookie.

Excerpt from To You, From James

At one point, he swears he walks right through it. He’d been shuffling around in his pajamas and slippers, eyes bleary after yet another sleepless night, when he felt it upon walking past the mirror. It was a frigid, awful feeling, like diving into a freezing lake after being in the sun all day. It is a cold that sits deep within him, and lingers in his bones long after the summer sun rises in the sky. This cold is different from the cold which the ghosts at Hogwarts inhibited. This cold is alive—it is an extension of the being that haunts his summer, it is ardent in its frigidity. It is so nearly alive.

That other life is regulus’s life

[ninjitheninjaturtle]

After they got married James pointed out that Regulus' initials spelled RAP and Regulus regretted every choice he ever made that got him here

I hate this new chapter too (I think I've experimented too much with stream-of-consciousness in this one, like tf is this even I can't), so I'm jumping into another fic lol
