“i am going to victim blame a child in an abusive household and claim this literal kid had enough power to stop the dynamics that were put in place since his youth. said child most likely also had much burden placed on him as he grew up because he had to take on a lot of responsibility, most probably keep the peace in the family, and had pressure on him to overcompensate for his older brother’s behavior.”
let’s not act like regulus being the golden child meant that he got off unscathed from his childhood, all children that grow up in abusive and toxic homes are victims.
pointing out his racist ideology and behavior is one thing and entirely just, but blaming a child (remember that he died at 18!) for not stopping his parents abusing his older brother is wholly unjust.
and let’s not act like sirius, james, and andromeda were perfect either :-)
i’m sorry but the hatred i have for jegulus is almost as strong as my hatred for snily
regulus literally let his brother get abused by their family and did nothing to help him. and don’t tell me he couldn’t have left, both sirius and andromeda had left and were doing fine on their own.
james is far too good for him and would never fuck around with a blood supremacist
Regulus Black
regulus' handwriting IS comic sans
okay i love lie low at lupins yes because wolfstar but more specifically: toxic wolfstar
like these two would have had such a toxic relationship hogwarts / first war and it would just carry on after poa i love it so much
Okay but Regulus Black gives me major gen z energy. Like you can’t tell me he wouldn’t be to anxious to ask a server for ketchup, but then go beat some death eaters ass, then make it home in time for dinner, and be polite as fuck cause he has anxiety.
reggie :(
there is no way some of y’all are this heated about fictional characters. like i refuse to believe that people are getting into fights over characters that don’t. exist. in. real. life.
