traitor - January 8th - jegulus, platonic prongsfoot - @black-brothers-microfic - word count: 382
As soon as James walked into his flat, he got the odd sense he should leave. The very air was thick with anger, and he knew it could only mean one thing. Turning to tiptoe quietly back out the door, he managed to make it all the way to the entrance before-
"James!"
Fuck.
"Will you tell your fiancé what a traitor he is?" Sirius screeched, standing in the door of the kitchen with his arms crossed and looking furious.
Before James could ask why, another, equally scary voice replied from within the room.
"James, will you tell your best friend he's an idiot?" Regulus called, voice full of both annoyance and amusement.
James considered calling Remus for help, but he knew it was too late. "What happened?" he asked wearily, shucking his jacket and walking into the warzone.
"Regulus told me I can't be his Best Man!" Sirius shrieked, throwing his hands in the air. "The audacity! I'm his only sibling and-"
"Because you're James's Best Man, you dumbarse!" Regulus interrupted, giving James a look that demanded he speak. "You can't be Best Man for both!"
"Why not? I damn well should be! I'm the most important person in both of your lives!" Sirius yelled, eyes wild.
James sighed, finally stepping in. "Regulus, did you tell Sirius what he would be doing instead of being your Best Man?" he asked the younger man gently, trying not to cause any more blow ups.
"No," Regulus grumbled. "He wouldn't let me." But he turned to Sirius and took a deep breath, as if trying to calm himself. "You're going to walk me down the aisle, Sirius. Give me away, and all that."
Immediately, Sirius's demeanor changed. His crossed arms fell to his sides and his furrowed eyebrows lifted as his eyes filled with tears. "Wh-what?" he asked, voice trembling.
"Oh, fuck, he's going to cr-" Regulus said fearfully, looking aghast and turning to get away from is brother.
But it was too late. Sirius pulled Regulus into a bear hug, sobbing hysterically. "I- l- lo- love y- you s- so m- mu-" he stuttered, tears streaming down his face and onto Regulus's expensive jumper.
"James, help!" Regulus hissed, looking like a trapped animal.
"Nah, love, that's all you," James grinned, turning to leave.
honestly love being in the marauders fandom, there are so many talented creators, especially fic writers. like i read popular fics from another fandom, and it just does not hit as hard as the masterpieces yall create over here. other ppl are getting emotional over stuff, and i don’t even bat an eye bc of the absolute tragedies the marauders have put me thru.
MARAUDERS HEADCANON #3
Most of the students had a crush with one of the Marauders at least once. Including the Marauders themselves.
All of them and Lily had a little crush with Remus at some point. Except for Sirius. He was in LOVE with him and that's a fact.
The marauders fandom is basically taking any character from harry potter and saying "ok cool but make them GAY and give them EVEN MORE TRAUMA" and I love that
MARAUDERS HEADCANON
When Lily and James started dating everyone at Hogwarts started to call them Jily, and they were both so happy about it.
But then, the other marauders called them Lames and they hated it. Sirius laughed so much when the first time he called them that.
The couple decided that they needed a name to call themselves when they were alone. When Remus heard this, he said to Lily in one of their classes:
Flowerpot
And she burst out laughing because, she LOVED it.
Sirius became Sirius Lupin, he wanted nothing to do with the Black family anymore
Regulus became Regulus Potter-Black, while he wanted nothing to do with his family, they were still a part of him, but he was more than them, and he was a Potter first
The people who compare Regulus to a star and James to the sun are correct, but consider: the sun IS a star. Regulus burns just as brightly as James does. You just have to get closer to him.

with wolfstar there is no "fell first" "fell harder" nonsense, they're both fucking idiots and they fell so much they crashed through three floors
"jealous regulus this" "possessive regulus that" GIVE ME JEALOUS AND POSSESSIVE JAMES PLEASE
James Potter's loyalty to his friends as seem by Snape:
“Like father, like son, Potter! I have just saved your neck; you should be thanking me on bended knee! You would have been well served if he’d killed you! You’d have died like your father, too arrogant to believe you might be mistaken in Black — now get out of the way, or I will make you"
James Potter's loyalty to his friends as seem by Lupin:
"No, I think you're like James," said Lupin, "who would have regarded it as the height of dishonor to mistrust his friends."
