Idk If People Do This Anymore But I Need Help Finding A Fic That I Read Like A Month Ago. It’s A Jegulus

Y’know, now is a great time to be one of the people who stopped reading choices when they knew they couldn’t handle it.

If only You Give Love a Bad Name by Bon Jovi came out a decade earlier. James would sing it every time Lily rejected him. When him and Reg broke up he would listen to it non stop for three days straight.

Tw: murder (but in a fun way)

Ok, if I’m being fr with you guys, I gotta tell you that I would love to read Lily murdering Regulus so she could be with James.

I’ve seen Regulus kill Lily, I’ve seen Barty kill Regulus,

I need this. And I don’t even like Jily.

I think we can all agree it’s time for some psychopath Lily.

I fully believe the increase in serial killer and detective trying to find them jegulus AUs are a direct result of choices’ recent chapters which caused the sudden increase in canon compliant fics.

No I will not explain further, do with that information what you will.

Tw- murder (but like, in a fun way)

The only reason I believe Jegulus couldn’t be canon is because James would be buried in a shallow grave after the breakup.

Regulus is that crazy bitch that would rather kill a man than have anyone find out he got dumped. There’s no moving on if there’s no James.

You might think I’m exaggerating but if you think about how easy it would be for Regulus to get away with it you’ll see I’m right.

You are a wonder.

A true miracle to society

All the hearts ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤🤍❤️‍🔥💖💝💘💓💗💞💕♥️🫀

As a former vampire diaries (both the tv show AND the books), twilight, and shadow falls(I know no one’s heard of it, that’s fine) stanner, I can confidently say that vampires are still sexy and cool as fuck.

Please write more long vampire! Jegulus aus.

Please.

@screamingfae I’m looking at you👀👀👀👀

Tw: anxiety attacks (mentioned)

Regulus had really shit grades for the first few years at hogwarts.

He was really stiff and never got the wand motions right. He got anxious during tests and blanked. He was really bad at chopping things and ended up nicking his fingers during potions (which was never good with the whole hemophilia thing), he was taught to never get dirty (man’s always had hand sanitizer) so he hated herbology. He was always good at flying lessons and astronomy though.

He never asked questions or for extra help because he was scared people would think he was dumb.

He was also dealing with Sirius not talking to him anymore no matter how many times he tried to get his attention.

He got even more stressed when he knew his mother would find out about his grades and started having frequent anxiety attacks. Madame Pomfrey soon realized that his anxiety attacks were from school and started to help him.

She taught him healing spells, potions, how to work with herbs and cleaning spells, and meditation. The one on one lessons really helped Regulus notice his mistakes and helped him loosen up.

This was how he found out Remus was a werewolf. He loved magical creatures and read about them in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them so he was already suspicious. He soon put two and two together when he would wake up in the hospital wing and Pomfrey would be fussing over someone who wasn’t there the night before.

Also just imagine Remus and Regulus sitting on opposite beds while Pomfrey teaches them how to clear their mind. Or Remus realizing why Regulus was in the hospital wing all the time and encouraged Sirius to talk to him.

Jegulus song fic: Cornerstone by Arctic Monkeys

James using Reg because he looks like Sirius

Regulus knowing that he probably shouldn’t let James call him Sirius but he really doesn’t care

At the end of the day Reg gets James even if it’s just sex, James gets the closest thing to Sirius, and Sirius doesn’t know a thing lest he become traumatized by what his brother and his ex get up to.

But that’s just not as fun. Why would I want to read something so sad when I can read the characters with more complex relationships and personalities. Not being canon compliant doesn’t mean you don’t understand the work, it just means you want to put your own spin on things. You want to see your favorite characters be more than just a few lines in one book.

It’s perfectly fine if you think this way just don’t insult other people for thinking differently please. It’s really not that deep.

sorry to break your hearts, but regulus was not a pure innocent baby who was forced to become a death eater.

he became death eater on his own. he wanted to. he believed in voldemort's views, was prejudiced and agreed with his parents being their favourite child.

he never lost his beliefs, if it wasn't for kreacher being in danger regulus would have never betrayed voldemort. he's a parallel to snape - if it wasn't for lily being in danger snape would've still be a loyal death eater.

and no, sirius and regulus did not get along well. making all those edits with them together only show that you have never understood what was written in the books. sirius spoke ill of regulus. they did not agree with each other and separated most likely ever since sirius became a gryffindor. no, regulus would have never begged sirius to stay and sirius would never sadly say to him he has to. sirius ran away to his real brother. pay attention to his words in ootp. SIRIUS AND REGULUS WEREN'T CLOSE (perhaps in childhood but not since hogwarts). if they were, sirius would never ran away before 17 leaving everything behind.

i'm not even gonna speak about jegulus cause it's more fucking stupid than armys on twitter. just admit you can't read.

Regulus black and tattoos (sad regulus times)

I think that if Regulus ran away from the death eaters he would keep the mark for a very long time. He wanted to remind himself that he isn’t a good person now just because he no longer hurts people.

He would stare at it for hours and remember all the damage he’s done, all the people he killed, all the families he’s ruined, all the torture he witnessed with a straight face. Then, once the guilt has reached its peak, he gets up and he does anything to help. He would leak information to Dumbledore about the death eaters, he would clean up demolished buildings after an attack, obliviate any muggles who saw, anything to make that guilt worth something.

When the war ends (just pretend it ended for normal reasons, not because of Lily, and they’re all fine) he finally covers it up (in a muggle shop of course). He replaces the mark with a bouquet of flowers. Mainly made up of lavender and amaranths. He’s never really been fond of flowers but he needed life to cover up the symbol of death.

He would lay these flowers over the graves of the victims. He wanted them to find peace, to have immortality in the afterlife to counteract the short life they lived. Both death eaters and muggle-borns. Some he knew, many he didn’t.

This was where Sirius found him. Kneeling over Marlene’s grave(sorry I needed a reason for him to be here), he points his wand to Regulus’ head, ready to kill his last death eater. Regulus doesn’t look up and says, “Don’t kill me yet, I haven’t finished.” Sirius realizes he was organizing the bouquet of flowers to decorate the grave, he looked around and saw half the graves covered in purple and pink flower arrangements.

Sirius helps him finish. He asks Regulus what happened to him, the last thing Sirius knew was that he had died. Regulus tells him everything, not looking for forgiveness, just wanting to answer the question. They walk to Sirius and Remus’ flat together. They part ways a few blocks away, Sirius not giving Regulus his address, even though Voldemort has been dead for months. They decide to not see each other again, both knowing their lives would only get worse if the other was in it.

Regulus gets his next tattoo that night. He gets the black crest, but instead of a crow in the center, there’s a big, shaggy black dog. (You think he DIDN’T know they were anamagi, come on.)

From then on it was like something broke free. He got tattoos covering his entire body, not wanting to feel so empty. He figures that if he can tattoo the things he used to love on his body, keep them on him at all times, then maybe he can love them again.
