Some and now none of you —
Thinking about Regulus who goes through that younger sibling phase, you know, like, when they become a sponge? When they literally absorb everything through sheer osmosis, of whatever it is their older siblings do? Musical preferences, clothing choices, ticks, expressions, thoughts, philosophy, etc.
And i think, because he and Sirius grew up the way they did, and where they did, Regulus may have put Sirius on a pedestal (I think they both put each other on a pedestal. Like Sirius was always "supposed to be" the braver one and Regulus was always "supposed to be" the kinder one. They saw their own perceived weaknesses as strengths manifested in the other.) And like a little kid — both as a younger sibling and a child whose main source of affection is from his brother — Regulus' identity comes into being through Sirius.
And Sirius? Being treated like the parasite of his mother's ambitions, by his mother, whilst simultaneously groomed to take her place — he finds that Regulus is the first thing, first person that he was told was his. It's a heady thing, as he struggles to grapple with the combination of lingering insufficiency and the ego (as well as entitlement) that comes with being told you're meant to own the world. Regulus is fully his and not a half-debt to a parent.
He soaks up the admiration the same way Regulus absorbs bits and pieces of Sirius' identity to find his own.
At one point, they're swapping traits and ticks. Tricks and picks.
Clothes and bedrooms are shared. Spaces are occupied together.
And, well. It's so very sad to think about the dissonance when they start losing each other. Because it starts to feel like they're losing themselves. It's a bit more complicated for Sirius because to him, he saw it as giving pieces of himself to a kid, even though it's not true, or a rational description of two siblings simply sharing interests. To him, it's not.
Regulus has a haaaaaard time readjusting every time he and Sirius drift farther apart. He's torn. He grew up having identified with so much of his brother's existence and now has to find what it means when he no longer can't. How does he find himself, when he's lost so much of it?
And for Sirius I can imagine how he feels like he's walking with patches of himself missing. It feels like both brothers stole from each other.
Now Regulus is walking down the halls, wearing his scarves exactly like his brother does. And Sirius ends up not wanting to touch scarves for a long while, because he's used to putting one on Regulus first and then himself.
*wow, i can't seem to stop writing about the black brothers. here, have some more.

Winner by Conan Gray is sooo sooo Black Brothers coded. It's literally the embodiment of how I see Regulus reacting to Sirius leaving and Sirius to Regulus death and the aftermath of it all..... the pain, the anger, the angstsss

Regulus used to hate Bowie.
Sirius would blast it none stop at 3 am, making Regulus want to jump out his window.
But when Sirius left, the only thing that comforts Regulus is Ziggy Stardust and the spiders from mars. He listens to the album everyday. It's the only thing that keeps him running.
Well, until James.

Regulus: “I think we should probably have the funeral next week-“
Sirius seeing a family portrait of when they were both younger: “wow I looked so good when I was younger”
Regulus:
Sirius: “I mean I look good now too but-“
Regulus: “we are trying to plan your grandmothers funeral!”

James: Do you really hate Sirius?
Regulus: Yes.
James: So you're telling me you wouldn't save his life? What if he needed a kidney?
Regulus: James, he's my brother. Of course I'd give him my kidney. Just not my respect.

Remus: James… why do you have bite marks on your arms?
James: *sweating nervously* OH- oh, Urm I was babysitting my little cousin and- and he bites. haha.
Remus: *raises one eyebrow*
Sirius: *sympathetic* That sucks mate. Reggie was a fucking biter too- reckon I’ve still got scars from the little shit.
James: *quietly squeaks*
Remus: *raises the other eyebrow*
James: … I’ve got to go *absolutely bolts*
Sirius: what was that about?
Remus: *sighs* It would appear that you and James have the same cousin.

Baby: mmmmama!
Reg and Pete: awhhh

Sirius: she just called you mama, I'm telling James he's created a monster
Pete to Reg: just let him, it's not worth it

James and Sirius hang mistletoes at every doorway/entrance, so they have an excuse to kiss Regulus and Remus.
Regulus asks Remus to help him set the table while James and Sirius play with Harry.
As Regulus comes out of the kitchen, Remus runs into him at the entrance
Regulus:
Remus:
Sirius:
James:
Sirius: We didn't think this through
James: No, we did not
Harry: Kiss!
Remus gives Regulus a peck on the forehead
