teenagers in media acting like real teenagers will always hold a special place in my heart
you know, i totally get that people want to stick to regulus being tough and cruel because we have softened him too much, and i agree at the most part, but i also feel like regulus is so sensitive. he was a caring, loving child, the complete opposite of who he became. so within that, if you find a way in, he becomes just as sickenley loving. he cannot bare anything casual. he loves with his whole being. consumes. engulfs. he sleeps with stuffed animals. he needs barty to hold his hand when he panics in class. he is, in the words of mistki, a tall child.
Gray gets the credit for clearing Juvia's skies but her saying this to Lucy about the guild is very cute and important too
the difference between how the ls members are treating pangi eating 18 stacks of bottled honey and killing all of the bees in a 1k block radius is so funny. like everyone else calling him insane while hannah says it was deserved bc they had it in an open chest and clown calls him a devious, hungry little guy 😭😭😭
Evan and Barty been waiting for YEARS for Regulus to turn their relationship into a threesome and then JAMES FUCKING POTTER—
I need Barty to not fuck up at the end of Goblet of Fire so that he continues roleplaying Moody to gather intel on the Order of the Phoenix so that he gets to go be miserably heart broken in Regulus’ room. So he can read Regulus’ poetry notebooks. So he can look at his Hogwarts yearbooks. So he can find the final love letter Regulus had run out of time to send Barty. So he can add notes to his poetry notebook that he will never stop loving him.
they're gay your honor
I feel like a large part of the dynamic between Evan Regulus and Barty is how out of pocket and codependent they are, but like in such a chaotic and silly way sometimes. Like for example, Evan and Barty operate on the ‘favorite system’ which is pretty much like treating your mom as base in tag but regulus is the mother in this situation. Like when they get in a squabble or are just being stupid they run around regulus like he’s base and regulus could not be bothered at all. But the ‘favorite’ thing comes in because depending on the day, regulus is much more willing to let one of them slide than the other solely because it’s funny to watch the one not being favored get upset about it. There’s no rhyme or reason to who he picks as his ‘favorite’ that day and they can’t bribe him to change his mind, it’s just a fact of their life that some days Evan can get away with murder and get head pats instead of a talking to or an eye roll no matter what he does while other days it’s Barty that gets the privilege. It’s custom that whoever realizes they’re the favorite is an absolute menace about it the rest of the day. They rub it in the loser’s face in any way they can, and the loser usually just pouts about it because it doesn’t matter and they’ll get a turn later. It’s completely for shits and giggles and doesn’t actually influence any of the threes’ opinions on each other or moods at all, it’s literally just juvenile fun that they take seriously for the bit.
rosestarkiller has such a “we saw you across the psych ward and we liked ur vibe” energy to it that I love
