Can Someone Write A Jegulus Summer Camp Au, Please?

I think Walburga liked Sirius more than Regulus. Sirius fought back. He was a leader, a protector. He was strong minded and passionate but also incredibly loyal to his friends. Walburga thought that if she could get Sirius to agree with her ideals, all of his characteristics would fall perfectly in place of Voldemort’s right hand man. He wouldn’t be just another DE, he would be in the inner circle. Walburga didn’t expect much from Regulus, so she didn’t care about him as much. Regulus was submissive and didn’t think for himself. She knew he would become a DE, so she didn’t pay attention to him. When Sirius left, Walburga was left with her spare. She was disappointed with not having a strong enough heir to be of more importance to Voldemort. Regulus was the disappointment in her eyes.

She was wrong about Regulus though. Regulus wasn’t submissive, he was strategic. He had his own opinions and ideals, he just never said them because he knew it wouldn’t get him anywhere. He knew how Sirius was treated and figured that speaking up for himself just wasn’t worth it. He became a DE because he wanted to. He felt awful about his brother hating him for it, but he agreed with the world he was told Voldemort wanted to create (I think he was manipulated into thinking Voldemort just wanted a peaceful world where everyone could be free).

When Regulus realized he’d been tricked, he didn’t want to be just another soldier on the light side like his brother, he wanted to take down Voldemort himself. (Little dramatic but love the enthusiasm) He sacrificed his life knowing that he would never get to say goodbye, never get to redeem himself in his brother’s eyes. It wasn’t expected nor welcome of him to do such a thing but he didn’t care. He did what he wanted, whether people knew it or not.

It’s not necessarily fan behavior because it could have been that when he was younger but then slowly turned into research over the years, keeping track of him but no longer idolizing him.

We don’t know what his mind set was at the end of his life and even if it was definite in canon, does it really matter?

I mean, it’s the same thing with jegulus, just because it isn’t canon doesn’t mean it couldn’t have happened.

But I’m tired of having this argument about what’s realistic according to canon because I just don’t care. It’s literally a kids book, let it be subjective and let it rest.

Let’s move on to more fun discussions because this one is just exhausting.

No hate to either of you im just tired of seeing the same thing over and over again.

girly u do realize regulus betrayed voldemort, right? how is he a voldemort fan boy... and about jegulus, honestly they would make a good couple. you're just boring.

Yes, he betrayed Voldemort because of Kreacher, not James. And his betrayal doesn't mean he never had Voldemort clippings on his bedroom walls, you know, literal fanboy behaviour. Jegulus is a stupid ship that strays far too much from canon for my tastes, but people can enjoy it if they want and if their version of Regulus is the exact opposite of his canon version.

James once told Regulus to face his fears. Of course, he said it a bit more lavishly, he was still posh after all.

He said, “Look into the eyes of your demons with nothing but courage, and determination; and if the case calls for it, look on with fury.”

Well, Regulus must be doing something right.

Because here he lays at the water’s edge, looking into the faces of watery demons, each representing something different - The Dark Lord, Father, Mother, Sirius, James, the life that was stolen from him - with nothing but courage, determination, and a whole lot of fury.

That will not get you a kiss nor a slap.

That will get you a verbal affirmation that you are very good looking and I appreciate you in my life😘

If one of my bookmarked fics updates in the next 24 hours I will kiss the author on the mouth, very passionately.

This is not a threat, but a promise.

Omg absolutely do it, it’s 100% worth it

the urge to write a jegulus fanfic even tho i’m not sure it would be any good

Plus he’s a pure blood so you know Voldy’s all over that shit

Personally? I love the idea of Voldemort starting to see Regulus as a bit of a threat even without knowing he's onto the Horcruxes. Like, they're a little too similar. Regulus is just as handsome and charming and charismatic and smart as Tom Riddle was at that age, and he's also the wealthy well-connected pureblood heir Tom pretended to be. He's like Voldemort-plus. And that could become a problem.

Hi new mutual 🥰 hope you’re having a great day

Omg hi✌️ I’m admittedly not having a good day but I hope your’s is great I love your work😘

“Those poor boys”

“She deserves to be punished too.”

“I’m not saying I support rape, but-”

“Sorry to say - she deserved it.”

“She put herself in harm’s way”

“But if she was fingered, then that’s not rape.”

“She ruined their lives.”

So I’ve been thinking

Quidditch car wash fundraiser

I don’t know why they would ever need the money or why they would wash muggle technology for it. But just ignore that.

The school would never allow them to be sexy because they are c h i l d r e n, but you know James and Sirius would be constantly wiping their brows with their shirts just to show off their abs.

Remus and Peter would handle the money but then Sirius and James would convince them to participate too. (Sirius just wanted to see Remus’ muscles at work)

All the house teams would have to do it which causes a lot of problems. They would constantly be spraying water at each other, throwing rags and sponges, fighting over the music, and too many people would end up with soap in their eyes.

All the pure bloods (regulus) would be terrified of touching a muggle device that’s “sure to explode at any moment”. Regulus would end up getting put on money duty. Since he doesn’t know how muggle money works people severely under pay. He was also incredibly distracted by the show the practically shirtless James was putting on.

The minute the last car was washed James and Sirius would take off their shirts just to show off. Remus and Regulus had a cardiac arrest at that point.

It would pretty much just be a shit show and they would never raise enough money. And everyone got to watch them all waddle back into the castle soaked head to toe looking like drowned rats.

If you think of Regulus like that then that’s fine. No one is telling you you can’t. Some people just think of Regulus differently because we have so little to work with that we can interpret them in different ways.

I personally think that Regulus was emotionally manipulated and abused by his parents, some people think he was put on a pedestal by his parents.

That’s what’s so fun about these characters: there isn’t really a right or wrong. Don’t get mad at people who want to make Regulus more than a plot device, I assure you we can all exist peacefully with different opinions.

Honestly, the real reason why I love/really like Regulus Black is because I WANT him to be this super badass, dark, snarky, sexy, mysterious asshole who doesn’t give a fuck about anyone. Sure, I’ll hate him as a person but I’ll love him as a character. I usually love the villains way more than the heroes, like, I find myself wanting grey characters to be more evil.

Sadly, his fans have made it REALLY hard for me to like him, they turn him into this poor, abused sweetheart who was secretly in love with James and was blackmailed into being a death eater and was an angel who did nothing wrong, like, NO! Stop ruining it for me, when I read about him and he appeared for, like, 10 seconds or something, I thought his character had potential, specifically in fanfics, but his fans make me wanna scratch my eyes out. Like, stop making him a poor little white boy, make dark headcanons about him, make him more complicated and interesting. His fans are just extremely annoying, and it REALLY pisses me off when they say “Regulus Black is the TRUE Slytherin hero”. Like... wtf?? What Regulus did was extremely heroic and god bless him for doing that, but... y’all gotta stop comparing the most complicated Harry Potter character ever to a plot device.

Wait they’re right! Remember when Regulus Black defected Lord Voldemort and fought against him for years and was a spy for nearly two decades and sacrificed his entire life in the process and truly believed in the Order’s cause and saved the entire Wizarding World?

Me neither, that was Severus Snape. Read the fucking books.

It annoys me how they compare the most beautifully-written character ever to a fucking cardboard cutout 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️
