It's time again for the Jegulus reverse Bang! If you are unsure what a reverse bang is, you're in the right place. It's very similar to a big bang, just in reverse. Instead of everything being centered around the fanfiction, it will be centered around art.
Artists will create a piece of art and authors will collaborate with the artist to write a new fic. Being the Jegulus Reverse Bang, your works must be centered around James Potter and Regulus Black.

Thank you to all who participated in the Jegulus Reverse Bang. It has been quite a few months since sign ups, and we have had 8 final art pieces and 8 final fics!.
It has been a blast slowly reading through everyone's works, and admiring the lovely art to that it accompanies. We appreciate everyone that took the time to participate in the event!
Below the cut is a masterlist of all works. Until next time!
Between the Lines // @psychoticallykind | Art piece by @hagridspumpkinpatch
Summary : The world kept spinning. His heart kept beating. The sun kept shining.
But something had changed.
Something had changed, had shifted - and Regulus knew, even if he could never say it out loud.
"You could be wrong," he whispered.
James just smiled. "I'm not."
And for a second?
Regulus believed him.
Corruption Begins With the Mouth // @messymoony | Art piece by @tenakiie
Summary:
“Hello,” the other man says, looking up at James from between his eyelashes. It makes James feel hot despite the chill in the air, a shiver running through him in anticipation. He knows that look, knows what it means. The man’s voice is smooth and melodious, a slight accent to it James can’t quite place. “What are you doing out all on your own at this time of night?”
One night, Prince James Potter has a passionate encounter with a stranger which makes his blood thrum - quite literally. He should probably leave it alone, but there’s something so intriguing about the other man…
holding on to you // @emlovessid | Art piece by @peachrtistic
Summary: “Well, this isn’t the first time that we’ve met, actually. Not for me anyway.”
For some reason, this is the thing that has shocked Regulus the most about this strange meeting. How could this not be the first time that they’ve met? Regulus has never seen this man before, it doesn’t make any sense.
At Regulus’ obvious confusion, the man continues, “When I time travel, I travel to the same places a lot. This is one of those places. I’ve travelled here many, many times. You and I, we’re something like friends.”
how the might fall (in love) // @kanra-writes | Art piece by @astronomyth-art
Summary: Regulus is a very tired café owner, who likes what he does, even on those days, when it completely sucks, and all the customers are being the most idiotic people on this planet. But here comes a very hot customer, making Regulus’ shifts far more enjoyable.
James recently moved back to England from Spain and is still getting used to the culture shocks, he’d seemingly forgotten. He visits a café everyone recommends and is immediately enamoured by the barista, who makes his move to England far more enjoyable.
In Your Hands // @supernova-stardust | Art piece (NSFW) by @autistpride
Summary: James Potter had a rough day at work. So terrible, in fact, that when Regulus asked him what he wanted for dinner, he felt like he would cry at the thought of making one more decision. Thankfully, Regulus always knew exactly how to take care of his husband.
OR
James Potter being desperate and pathetic
Regulus // @psychoticallykind | Art piece by @autistpride
Sunflowers and Mahogany // @vinylfoxbooks | Art piece by @astronomyth-art
Summary: “James decides, despite their low pain tolerance, they’re going to get a tattoo and asks Sirius for his usual artist, which is how they meet the most attractive man they’ve ever seen and are immediately trying to charm him.”
Veritaserum Confessions // @badgerinbloom | Art piece by @hagridspumpkinpatch
Summary: James and Regulus are in their final year of Hogwarts. James is Quidditch captain, and Regulus never misses a game. Regulus decides to one day make a Veritaserum potion and James unknowingly drinks it, causing a rough patch in their relationship
Work done in a collaboration with @emlovessid (ao3 & Tumblr) for @jegreversebang !!!
This was such a lovely illustration to work on, and to read a literal masterpiece of a story inspired by it!! Insane. I'd like to thank mods for organising the event so well and of course to emlobessid, for her amazing work, so well written, so soft and so much more than I expected. Please give it a read and show her some appreciation <3
