i wake up thirsty and i think of palestine. i go to the doctor’s office and i think of palestine. a sign in the corner of the waiting room says ‘this is a place of healing, disruptive behavior will not be tolerated’ and i think of palestine. they probably weren’t thinking of bombs and snipers and mass graves in parking lots. i call my parents and i think of palestine. i drive to the grocery store and i think of palestine. i look at the clear blue sky and i think of palestine. i put the dishes away and i think of palestine. i feed my cat and i think of palestine. i listen to music and i think of palestine. i read poetry and i think of palestine. i text my friends and i think of palestine. i think of palestine and i think of palestine and i think of palestine

*Everyone is getting ready to go out, and the girls and sirius are doing their makeup*

James: ooh can I have some

Sirius: really?

James: yeah I want to be pretty too

Marlene: Okay, come here

Regulus *walks in eyes immediately going to james and marlene*: wtf are you doing?

Marlene: he wanted some makeup, so I'm putting on some eyeliner

Regulus: Give it to me. I'll do it.

Marlene *mumbling*: possessive much

*She hands him the eyeliner, and he sits in James's lap and starts working on his eyelner*

James *flustered*: OH . . . okay

Regulus: There, done

James: Does it look good?

Regulus: you always look good

*James more red than his quidditch jersey*

Sirius *rolling his eyes*: What did I do to deserve this

i finished my last high school finals month yesterday and i’ve never felt to stress feel and relaxed in my LIFE.

i NEVER have to worry about those seven subjects AGAIN !!!

anyways i wrote a jegulus microfic (literally 500 words of fluff) in my final english essay and now i can’t stop thinking about the fic i was working on before life took over lol

#ITS OVER #HIGH SCHOOL IS OVER #i’m never going back #i couldn’t be dragged there by the hairs on my head.

regulus being good at writing out speeches and really getting to the point of the speech but can’t even think about speaking them out loud because he’s awkward and intimidating.

enter james being so so good at speaking in front of people but can never sit done to write a speech out

then being paired together to and becoming the perfect duo. reg always puts what’s in their minds onto paper perfectly and james knows exactly where to emphasise the way reg wants and them fall in love accidentally

#the maruaders #james potter #regulus black #james x regulus #jegulus #idk even know where this would be set???? #but i’m sure there’s some kinda job where you gotta speak in front of a hundred ppl on a daily based???? #OH MAYBE THEYRE SPEAKING TO KIDS #OH OH YESSSS #had this idea in the middle of my final exam today and it. won’t. leave. my. head.

From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free 🇵🇸

[genderfluidregulusblack]

to counteract that stupid ass post going around:

I'm Ukrainian and jewish and I have never in my life supported israel because i know that there can be no be mercy for colonisers no matter who they are. I lived through occupation and I lived among "civilians who don't deserve it" (russians who moved into occupied territories to take over businesses, institutions, houses, which is what israelis have been doing for DECADES). and let me tell you it was pure hell and I'm happy that liberation of Palestine is happening.

From the river to the sea Palestine going to be free! 🇵🇸 Real Ukrainians stand with Palestine and support the heroes who fight against colonisers!

"i don't know how i can find the courage to keep running my fandom blog without the complete and utter annihilation of the palestinian people"

@ereini0n get blown up by a rocket, you fucking fascist freak

[genderfluidregulusblack]

"israeli civilians don't deserve to die" of course obviously but neither did the palestinians for years now. don't get mad at the rage of the oppressed get mad at the oppressor who has gotten you into this situation, you have been profiting from their oppression your whole life

[genderfluidregulusblack]

if i see any of you demonizing Palestinians today, i am blocking you on sight. if you really cared about people dying, the very last thing you'd be doing is supporting the culling of Palestine. the events of today are the result of literal decades of genocide. the State of Israel is going to retaliate in tenfold. this should concern you. this should horrify you. this should anger you. there should be no room in your heart for hatred right now, and if me saying that bothers you, you don't see Palestinians as human. also save us both the time and block me first.

absolutely furious at the response of the internet at large to what's happening in palestine. everyone on this fucking website is all for violent revolution until it's palestinians doing it.

i don't have many words right now but i'm taking this opportunity to spread awareness of the general situation and hopefully push back against the tide a little. here are some resources provided by the wonderful people over at @bfpnola.

The Israeli state's response to this uprising will be devastating and barbaric. But life as it is now for Palestinians is one of degradation, exile, and murder at the hands of a merciless colonial system. They have chosen to grasp at freedom while they still have a chance, desperate though it may be. Forget the hypocrisy and moral cowardice of those who would deny the Palestinians their lawful right of resistance; the people of Palestine deserve our unwavering support and solidarity.

The marauders are all there for Peter’s engagement, because of course they are. Why wouldn’t they be? They’re his closest friends. His family.

Even now, even ten years after they’ve left school and scattered around the country, they’re here. They wouldn’t miss it for the world.

“Have you stopped crying yet?” James asks Peter, walking over to where he’s ordering a drink at the bar.

The surprise engagement party following the proposal is at a local pub, one that they’ve all frequented over the years, and James has made sure that everyone who loves Peter was invited to share in this important moment in his oldest friend’s life.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Peter smiles as he hands James his drink and orders another.

James laughs. “I don’t blame you one bit, mate. I was the same at my engagement, and I was the one proposing.”

Peter chuckles, shaking his head. “I wish I could’ve seen that.”

“Oh, I was an absolute mess.”

“You still were an hour later when you told us.”

“That was me composed!”

Peter laughs again. “You really weren’t.”

James rolls his eyes and shifts his gaze to his husband, who is currently talking to Remus and Evan at one of the tables across the room. He laughs at something Remus says, expression as warm as it gets in public, and James can’t help the smile that appears on his face at the sight.

He’s so in love.

“I sometimes wonder why Reg said yes, honestly.”

Peter scoffs.

James frowns at him. “What?”

“You’re very easy to love, James. I know that first hand.”

“I mean yeah, but I mean more romantically.”

“So do I.”

James’ expression shifts to one of confusion now. “I’m lost.”

“Wait.” Peter looks at him. “You didn’t know I was in love with you?” He rolls his eyes, fondness evident in them. “Of course you didn’t, you’re so oblivious.”

James is silent for a good ten seconds, his brain racing to catch up to whatever the fuck is happening right now.

“Hold on, hold on, wait.” James meets Peter’s now amused expression. “You were what?”

Peter nods. “Oh yeah, I was big time in love with you for years. I don’t know exactly when it started, but it was some time when we were growing up. Remus dealt with a lot of it when we started school. He figured it out pretty much immediately.”

The coherent part of James’ brain is working overtime. “Hold up, Moony knew?”

“Pretty much everyone knew, Prongs. It was glaringly obvious. Well, I don’t think Sirius did actually, but he’s just as bad as you are.”

James pauses as he considers his friend’s words, “Wait, you’re not still…?”

“Oh, no! God no. I’m very much in love with my fiancé now.” He smiles as he says the word fiancé, his eyes flicking to where Benjy is chatting with Sirius before landing back on James.

“Oh good.” James takes a breath.

“I’d fear for my life if I did, honestly,” Peter smirks as James raises an eyebrow. “I don’t know if you’ve noticed but Regulus is a little bit protective of you.”

James laughs at this. He supposes he is, not that James is complaining in the slightest.

“You two were meant for each other, you know,” Peter says, and James nods. He does know. He knows it more than he knows anything else in the world. He was made to love Regulus Black, and he’s so lucky that he gets to every day of his life.

“It’s that, right there,” Peter says with a smile, “the look you get when you even think about him. It’s that look that made me sober up and realise I couldn’t love you any more,” his smile turns into a grin, “well that and the very loud pining. Honestly, I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone so happy to be constantly insulted.”

James laughs. “They were affectionate insults!”

“Either way, they worked. You found the love of your life, and I realised you weren’t the love of mine. Two birds, I guess.”

A second of silence passes between them. Peter speaks again.

“He reminded me of you at first, you know?”

James raises his eyebrows at that. He loves Benjy, but they are very different people. “Really?”

“Yeah, he knew I wasn’t interested and pursued me anyway.” He laughs and James hits his arm.

“I’ll have you know, Regulus was very interested.”

“And Lily?”

“In my defence, I had no idea she was a lesbian.”

“Oblivious.”

James pouts before speaking, his voice quieter than it was a moment ago, “I’m sorry.”

Peter’s returning smile is soft. “Don’t be. I’m so glad you didn’t love me because I’m so happy now. More than I ever thought possible.” His eyes move to Benjy again and there’s just so much love in them that James almost has to look away for a second to avoid intruding on his friend’s inner thoughts.

“You two are meant for each other, you know,” James repeats Peter’s previous sentiment and his smile widens.

“I know.”

The silence between them is broken by the cheerful sounds of the pub, the sounds of their friends all coming together to witness and celebrate the love that Peter’s found, the love that he deserves.

“You were wrong before though,” James says and Peter turns to look at him, waiting for him to finish his thought, “I do love you. I always will.”

Peter smiles. “I love you too, James.”

Something warm settles in James’ chest and he takes a sip of his drink. His tone turns teasing, “I’m just confirming that it’s platonic love.”

“Oh, fuck off.” Peter pushes off the bar and starts walking towards their friends.

“Love you!” James calls after him.

“Stop hitting on me, I’m engaged!” Peter calls back.

James laughs as he watches him walk away, joining his fiancé and settling into the arm that wraps around his waist, Benjy pressing a kiss to his head before continuing his conversation.

James is so happy for them. He’s so happy for all of them. In fact, he loves and appreciates every single person in this room.

Platonically, for the most part.
