26: Aimless
@jegulus-microfic | april 26: aimless | word count: 311
There were many things that James was uncertain about.
Just as there were many things that he was certain about.
James was certain that if he ever had any problem he could count on Sirius to back him up.
He knew without a doubt that every time he almost fell from his broom Remus did a spell so that he would not hurt himself.
He knew that every single time any of them complained about being tired after a full moon somehow classes would be canceled and for some reason that same day Peter would get detention for an âundisclosedâ reason.
So yeah James was certain about many things.
This was also why he knew without a doubt that loving Regulus Black was an aimless thing.
For starters, he was Sirius's little brother.
âŠhis best friend's little brother.
Second, he and Regulus only interacted a little.
Sure they saw each other quite a bit but they did not talk.
It didnât matter too much to James.
He knew enough.
From the few interactions they had. From the way the other boy has been ever since he and Sirius
Last, (and perhaps the most important) Regulus appeared to have a strong, unreasonable dislike towards him.
Even if the other boy seemed to look at him a lot. Sparing glances at him in the halls, during dinners, in the field⊠he was everywhere.
It didnât matter that he had turned around on multiple occasions and found Regulus with his friends around him smiling and looking at him.
Or that Regulus seemed to light up whenever he asked if they could study together.
And maybe just maybe James wasnât certain about things not working out, but that wasnât something he was looking at right now, not when he was too busy being mesmerized by Regulus Black.

The fact that Gojo killed the love of his life for the greater good immediately makes him a good person in my book because if he didnât give a shit about anything or anyone genuinely he would have done whatever Geto wanted. He was a good person with strong morals idc about any think pieces I will die on this hill.

23: Resist
@jegulus-microfic | April 23: resist | word count: 268
James was warm.
Like abnormally warm.
Even in the winter when they walked outside and their breaths came out in tiny clouds.
So naturally, Regulus could not be blamed for his inability to resist himself from reaching out anytime they were together.
When they walked to classes, through the halls, to stores, his hand would always find its way to Jamesâ hand.
When they moved in together and he came home from a walk or a meeting, he would beeline straight to where James was, immediately looking for his warmth.
At some point, it had stopped being about the physical warmth that James carried with him. Instead the necessity that Regulus had with seeking the comfort that James brought from simply being there.
It had become a running joke amongst his friends. Especially with Barty and Even taking any and every opportunity to tease him about him always having some point of contact with James.
He could say he was bothered by it, that the teasing got annoying or something like that. But honestly? He didnât care.
Regulus was more than well aware that this could be considered clingy but he just did not care.
It was comforting to have James with him, around him, near him. Just the knowledge that James would always stick by his side made the teasing glances and words irrelevant to him.

22. Evoke
@jegulus-microfic | April 22: evoke | word count: 579
To Regulus, Christmas time had always been a tad bit draining.
The lights, decorations, the music. The ways the halls were filled with fading laughter all around him. It evoked a feeling of longing, of missing, so strong it wrapped around his lungs. This time of year was supposed to be warm and bring out happy memories, but he didn't really have any.
Even a place like Hogsmeade, a fairytale-like place that was full of so many people and strong emotions, was so draining.
Thatâs why he felt so reluctant to accept Jamesâ invitation to spend Christmas with his parents and his friends. Maybe it was a mix of not understanding the holiday, or maybe it was his obvious family issues that he had growing up.
He agreed, though. Of course, he did. He loved James, and he did want to spend this time with him. There was just a not so small part of him that was worried about how it would go.
For good reason he supposes.
It wasnât like this was bad, though. He just felt a bit⊠out of place.. but that wasnât the biggest feeling he was getting.
Really, he just felt overwhelmed.
He tried to look at Sirius for help, for direction⊠but Sirius looked so in his element like he had always belonged in a place like this. He wanted to convince himself that it was because Sirius got out earlier than him, but he wasnât so sure about that.
The only time he had been in a situation like this was when his parents would organize parties with their friends, and thatâŠwas nothing like this.
Those events were always filled with stress and judgment from everyone in the room.
Here everyone is soâŠunited? But not to hurt or judge. They are a real family, even though most of them are not even related.
It was difficult, sure.
Looking out there, Regulus felt like he was dreaming.
Every single person that was important to him, who had managed to make his life better, was there. Having fun, enjoying the holiday.
And although it was overwhelming, he loved it. It didnât feel draining or like it was taking away from some imaginative something he thought he should have. It made him feel at peace.
He looked around and saw his brother by the fireplace with Dorcas and Marlean.
The twins and Lily are over in the dining room, helping Monty with something.
Finally, he looked around and found James.
He was sitting by Remus and Mary, his mom occasionally bringing them drinks or passing by to say something to them.
James also looked in his element but in a different way. Not liked he belonged but like he harbored the environment to make everyone else belong.
This was perhaps one of his favorite things about James, the way he made everyone else feel seen.
He must have been staring for a long time because when he finally came out of his thoughts, James was staring back at him, a small smile climbing up the corner of his mouth.
It didnât take long after they made eye contact for him to walk over and wrap his arms aroundRegulusâs shoulder.
This holiday⊠It was hard for him. He couldnât start from the beginning. He knew that, had tried it before, and had only been disappointed by the results.
Being here with James, though, as overwhelming and new as it was to him, it was perfect.

21. Run
@jegulus-microfic | April 21: run | word count: 165
5:30
Itâs 5:30 in the morning.
The sun isnât even out yet.
So why should Regulus have to be?
Maybe he should have said no.
Who even likes to run this early?
âRegulus!â
RightâŠ
âJamieâ
âGood Morning, Love! Are you ready?â
Regulus will never understand how James can be so energetic even this early in the morning.
It shouldnât be possible.
But here he is. Smiling so brightly he might as well take the place of the sun.
âSureâ
He has no problem running or keeping up with James.
Itâs just that itâs so early and his bead was so comfortable. He could be there right now sleeping soundly, not a care in the world.
But then James looks at himâŠ
His eyes crinkle.
Ugh
Regulus would never get tired of it.
There isnât a thing in the world he wouldnât do to make sure that James is happy.
Even if that means going on a run at 5:30 in the morning.

20. Green
@jegulus-microfic | April 20: green | word count: 176
James' favorite color had always been red.
Like his team. Like her hair.
It was a bold and flashy color.
To him it signified strength, bravery, fearlessness
He could explain to anyone who asked why and how it was his favorite color.
What he couldnât explain was when it stopped being his favorite color. How his heart stopped beating out of his chest when he would see it in the hallway.
How it was replaced with Green everywhere.
In the tie he hid in his room. Afraid that his best friend would see it.
Green wasâŠ
Well it was forbidden.
Some would call it cowardly, hatful, rude.
At some point he would have called it that too. Would have gone on and on about why it was the worst.
But in his head the association with green stopped being bad.
Instead he would remember picnics, matches, stolen glances and touches.
When he saw it in the hall combined with neat short waves and piercing eyes he couldnât help the little sigh that escaped from his lips.

19. Class
@jegulus-microfic | April 19: class | word count: 243
There were a few things that Regulus loved to do on his off time.
He didnât have much time off, usually between classes and quidditch.
So after exams and quidditch matches, it was nice to finally have time where he could do nothing.
There was, of course, a decision on what he could do with this time. He could stay in his dorm, read or draw, go out with his friendsâŠ
Eventually, he came to the decision that he wanted to do something for him and James. Between everything they have had to do the last couple of weeks, they have barely had any time for each other.
So thatâs why he was here with James in the forbidden forest.
It was one of their favorite type of dates. A picnic outside of school, quiet, secluded. It was perfect.
Watching the sun go down, how the light hit James face⊠It was something he would never get tired of.
There was this feeling in his chest. It made it hard to breathe, to think, to do anything.
In their entire time being together (probably even before getting together), Regulus had always known that he loved James.
That James would be the only person he felt like this for.
In moments like this, the feeling choked him, but there was a certain amount of relief that came with it. The knowledge that James felt the same way about it was so precious to him.

There arenât many things that Pandora is afraid of.
She has always found life to be so peculiar and fun. It was a rare sight to ever see her afraid of something.
Except for her dreams.
At first, they started out with small normal things. A girl dyes her hair in her dream, and in the next couple of days, she has her hair dyed in the same way.
But then it becomes more serious.
A flash of a boy falling off his broom, and at the next match, Barty ends up in the infirmary.
She tried to stop them. When they were bad, she did everything she could.
Tried talking Regulus out of erasing Jamesâ memories.
Or have a match stopped before someone got hurt.
But every time she tried to intervene, nothing changed.
So when she dreamt of Regulus drowning in a cave and James and Lily dying with a flash of green, she also knew she could do nothing but watch it happen.

16. Embarrass
@jegulus-microfic | April 16: embarrass | word count: 193
âI donât think thatâs a good idea Jamesâ
âWhy not? Itâs the perfect way to get everyone to understand that I love Regulusâ
People had been talking about their relationship a lot. Making rude comments about them but especially about Regulus. Questioning how he could have ended up with James.
Reg hadnât mentioned anything or complained at all.
But he could tell it was bothering his boyfriend.
âRight yes keyword everyone. I donât think Regulus will like thatâ
âI think heâll love it, and Iâm the boyfriend soâŠâ
âWell I think heâll be embarrassed, and Iâm the best friend soâŠâ
The thought had crossed his mind.
He knew that Regulus was reserved and wouldnât normally do a big show like this.
But he also knew that Regulus liked when James did things like that. Yeah, it would embarrass him, and he would complain afterward, but he would like it.
HopefullyâŠ
âItâs just a little declaration!â
âIn front of everyone⊠right after a matchâŠâ
âYeah!â
âOkay clearly I canât stop you, so if you want to confess your undying love for Regulus in a match in front of everyone, go aheadâ
âGreat, I will!!â
