Sam Wilson and Bucky Barnes is the best ship and anybody is yet to convince me otherwise
something that really irritates me is that people constantly feminize one partner of a gay couple or make him trans. as if it’s impossible for a cis man to be in a gay relationship or be masculine.
people making one person trans is especially present in smut. like i seriously have no idea why, but there is so much content out there where one man is trans and the other is cis and they be rawdogging it.
now there absolutely is nothing wrong with a trans man being in a gay relationship. there is something wrong with it happening to nearly EVERY SINGLE GAY SHIP I COME ACROSS.
either one of them is feminized or trans or BOTH. ofc you can hc them however you want but something about its popularity rubs me the wrong way. it almost implies that two men can really only be in a relationship if one is trans or feminine.
for the @jegulus-microfic prompt: intent.
“Potter,” Regulus calls down the empty hall.
“Fuck off, Regulus,” James says back without turning around. He doesn’t even sound angry, just tired.
“James,” Regulus tries again, hoping his voice sounds softer in the hall than it does ringing in his own ears.
James turns around.
“You were right,” Regulus starts. It’s easier than I was wrong. “It wasn’t my intention-” he cuts himself off. It doesn’t matter what he intended. He knows exactly how ignoring James in front of everyone came off. He tries again. “I shouldn’t have- I’m sorry. It doesn’t matter. I don’t care who knows.”
James scoffs, but it doesn’t hide the hope in his eyes. “Prove it,” he says.
“Kiss me?” Regulus asks, daring to take a few steps closer.
“Right here in the corridor? Anyone could-”
“See us? That’s the idea. Dinner’s nearly over too. Should be a good audience.” Regulus says it lightly, as if a steady voice can disguise the fact that he’s nearly vibrating out of his skin.
It works, though. James grins at him, a small thing at first that steadily grows until it lights up his whole face. “You really mean it,” he says, and it’s not a question.
“I really, really do,” Regulus answers anyway, closing the remaining space between them. When he’s close enough, he grabs James’ collar and pulls him in. James is putty in his hands, bending to meet him with lips that were made to fit against his own.
Regulus doesn’t know how long they’ve been kissing. He doesn’t care. He’s intent on never doing anything else. That is, until he hears Sirius’ voice from the far end of the corridor.
“Prongs, what the fuck?”

My fortune cookie wants me to write fanfic
I just know that modern day James Potter would just have the absolute worst luck when it came to random day-to-day things
Like 100% he’d end up with either a really creepy landlord or would end up living in an apartment where everything tries to kill him probably both
Like he’d meet up with the Marauders and just have the wildest stories of like a landlord stalking him or just his sink randomly spray water or catching fire
Or he’d get a car but it would be the type of car that you’d have to do like a ritual to get it to work you couldn’t open like the left side door because it wouldn’t shut or the car would only place Ed Sheeran and would randomly just turn off while he’s driving
And everyone in his life is just so concerned for this poor boy but James is just super chill and literally does not care
Like sure he can only get into his car through the window and sure he has to use a chair to hold up the oven when he’s cooking but he’s fiiiiine
And in the background to James living his life you can hear faintly the screams of Remus Sirius and Peter every time they witness a new James near death experience
~~~♤~~~
He's always got that look in his eyes, you know the one.
He's kind a unfocused and his glasses are falling to the tip of his nose.
His hair is perpetually messy, he makes it look good but it's messy nonetheless.
He's always running around somewhere, probably knocking things over on his way.
Apologizes to inanimate objects... 100% apologizes to inanimate objects.
Says "wut?" Like a million times a day.
He replies to "Potter! >:(" better than he replies to his actual name.
Is so genuinely terrible at flirting its a little scary.
Tie always slung over his neck because he just... can't be bothered?
Buttons on his shirt done up wrong half the time.
Always late, Merlin help him.
Deer in headlights literally and figuratively.
He's got that total girly scream that follows with him clearing his throat and the deepest voice you've ever heard.
Dissociates from conversations then snaps back suddenly and nods along even though he has no idea what's happening.
"Mr. Potter!" "WASN'T ME!"
Will stare for a solid five seconds before processing what someone said.
Laughs louder than everyone else then quietly mutters "I don't get it"
He's a little wild, always up to something either dangerous or so stupid it should probably be considered dangerous.
Has ADHD.
That's it, he's just a little ADHD baby.
Can't go twenty seconds without pissing someone off.
Explodes with happiness.
Usually translates to smacking his friends repeatedly before pointing and shouting excitedly about something.
Pining after the same person for years even though they are SO MEAN TO HIM.
He actually loves it when they're mean to him.
He's just a chaotic mess and his friends love him so much

omg so i had this thought right, and like sirius and james out on a aurors mission yoke and james casts his patronus, but its not a stag like usual. nope its (whatever you headcannon reggie having as his or like reggies anamagus) and james is frozen in shock cause he and reggie had been dating in secret for aaaaages now and like reg is in his last year at hogwarts so james is falling even more in love with reg cause he realises his patronus has changed to match regs meanwhile sirius is sooooo fuckin confused like my man has every theory going through his head trying to figure out who has stolen his best friends heart and its not until reg sends him a patronus message and he connects the dots. but he doesnt tell them he knows, oh no. he fucks with them as much as possible until it gets to like james just blurting it out.

Happy Valentine's Day, James 💌💕
on the other hand
"James, your fever is 102 get in bed or your gonna DIE"
"reggieeeee, i sneezed like ONCE"
james and regulus are both the worst kind of sick people, and yeah i will explain it.
when james is sick, he will not rest. he will insist that he’s fine, all the while he can’t see straight and is on the verge of passing out. he will suffer through quidditch and school with a fever of 100+ without complaint. that boy refuses to be sick, even when he obviously is.
regulus, on the other hand, would complain left and right. complain about everything and nothing. he would shamelessly guilt trip people into doing everything for him. regulus being sick would be hilarious and wildly entertaining because somehow his lack of filter lacks even more of its filter and he just says anything.
