James: uhm, hey pads,
Sirius: yeah?
James: remember when you said that you won't kill the person that would date Regulus as long as they could beat you at chess?
Sirius: yeah?
James: *pulls out and arranges the board, turning his favourite side of the board (the white one) towards Sirius* your move, then.

Say something babe pt 3
James potter x reader (well not anymore really)
Angst
Warnings: cheating, lying, few punches are thrown and cursing I think? (Switch of povs)
A/n: last part!I hope you guys can enjoy this part as much as the others. There's different povs and a time skip in this part. Thank you for the lovely feed back genuinely means so much to me and got me so excited to write again. So maybe next time I'll write something a little bit more happy 💀
Tumblr media
James had fucked up he knew right when you rejected his kiss, and then you went and mentioned Lily, and he expected to be a dead man by the time you got out of his dorm, so he tried to lie again unfortunately that was apparently not an option this time. You had always been the type of person to wear your heart out on your sleeve without a care in the world, but right now seeing you seemed, so emotionless, James was sure he preferred the screaming and crying. He had cheated on you, yet you were so emotionless which if he was being honest stung a little because did you not love him? Why didn't you care?
As you got up deep down, James knew it was really over, especially after you called him Potter with such venom in your voice that was usually full of love for him, but part of him hoped you would come back to him the way you always did. In the meantime, he would have Lily to keep him entertained.
When the other Marauders came back, Sirius was carrying a honeydukes bag, "Where's y/n? I figured she was having a bad day. Or weeks I don't know she's acting different, so I brought her favorite treats." James knew that Sirius and y/n had been friends since childhood since they both came from pure-blood families and her father had hoped for them to marry before leaving her mother, who unlike most pure-blood Slytherin was not prejudiced against muggles.
"She broke up with me…" James knew that Padfoot loved him, but he'd be a fool to think he wouldn't hex him if he knew the truth about how he hurt his other best friend, so he kept it short
"What!? Why!? What in Merlin's baggy fronts did you do Potter?"
"What? Why did I have to do something? She's the one who broke up with me!... a-all because, apparently, I was no longer good enough for Ms. Popular." Sirius looked at James, not believing a word he was saying, all the marauders knew you were most definitely not that type of person. But he had to lie and hope they didn't find out the truth because if Sirius found out he was a dead man. Especially since at the beginning, Sirius was not at all happy with the relationship, yet James insisted, and he had no choice but to accept it for the sake of his two best friends.
"That has to be bullshit!" Sirius turned around to head out again, probably to look for you, but Remus stopped him and told him to just do it tomorrow. At that moment, James thanked whatever greater power had saved him and started concocting a plan to keep Sirius and y/n from speaking.
.......♡☆♡........
This was not how James Potter was planning to spend his last few days at Hogwarts. Only a week after y/n broke up with him and word got out, Lily Evans had also ended things with him, no longer deeming him interesting and refusing to make them official again. James' hopes of y/n crawling back to him soon enough also started to waver as she refused to even spare him a look and if by some miracle she did look in his general direction her eyes passed through him as if he was just another stranger. His former fan club of fangirls had also dispersed, most of them being too loyal to y/n for one reason or another, and it was not like they knew why they broke up, but they knew that if y/n was ignoring his existence it was with good reason. James was at least relieved that y/n had also been avoiding Sirius and the rest of the marauders, so at least he still had his friends with him.
But unbeknownst to him today, exactly 3 days before their official last day at Hogwarts, Sirius managed to corner you and finally got you to talk.
"-and then I kept stirring and stirring and stirring the potion, but I swear I wanted to stop but dream me was in some sort of trance-"
"Sirius please I swear I'm fine I'm over James, and I'm sorry for ignoring you, but please just let me go."
"I told you not until you tell me what he did to you. I know he did something because he said you didn't think he was popular enough for you, which like hello? So dumb and so unlike you, and you wouldn't ignore me unless you thought I was involved in whatever fuck up he did. Which I'm not! And plus I have not seen a real smile from you since before spring break, so you're stuck here with me till you talk. Now where was I?.... right! So I kept stirring and stirring…" You were sure that what Sirius was doing right now could be qualified as torture after he had cornered you and locked you with him in an empty classroom, he immediately tried to get you to talk. But since you refused he proposed he would wait till you were ready to tell him, however in the meantime he would tell you a story. Which was all fine and dandy, except his story had been in the same part for over 20 minutes now, and you could only hear him talk about stirring a potion a certain amount of times.
"Okay! Fine! If you really don't know, I'll talk!" And you did. By the time you were done, Sirius was seething and cursing James however when he looked at you and how your once brilliant eyes had lost their spark, and you looked so tired he decided to postpone James' doom for a little bit and instead pulled some sweets from his bag and spent the whole afternoon talking to you about everything and nothing, even getting you to laugh few times with stories about how he would pretend to be your knight when you were obsessed with being a princess as a kid and this time you actually felt the joy of laughing. You had forgotten how lucky you were for having someone who knew you the way Sirius did. (And thankfully there were no more mentions of his potion dream!)
By the time it was night, he walked you to your house and said goodbye to you with a tight hug, making you promise to never ignore him that way again, or he would probably go insane. After watching you go in through your house's entrance, he turned around with just one thought on his mind. James Potter was going to pay for hurting his princess.
.......♡☆♡........
James Potter quite literally had no idea what hit him as soon as he came out of the bathroom. One moment he was making his way to his bed and the next he was on the floor holding his nose, which he was pretty sure was broken.
"What the fuck, Pads! What the fuck was that for!?" James was sure he had never been more grateful for Peter and Remus, the latter who was instantly ready to stop whatever the fuck had gotten into Sirius.
" Remus, I swear, you better get out of my fucking way and let me settle this with this cheating pig!" At that moment, everything stopped for James. You had told Sirius, he couldn't believe it. He knew that at that moment he was essentially a dead man walking. He knew that if Sirius stopped at just a broken nose, he should consider himself lucky.
"Cheating pig? What the hell are you going on about now, Pads?" Peter looked between James and Sirius, expecting an explanation from either of them.
"What James? Apart from being a cheater and a lying bitch, you're also a fucking coward?" James wanted to cry, he wasn't sure if it was from the pain on his face or because he was fucking terrified. "Fine, I'll tell them myself about how you had the audacity to cheat on the most amazing girl with your ex, talk shit about her behind her back, and he gaslit her so bad she lost all the fucking spark in her eyes!"
"He what?!"
"No fucking way!"
Both Peter and Remus were both now looking at James with a mixture of disbelief, disgust and disappointment. He didn't want to look at them, but he could feel Sirius look of pure hatred looking at him.
"Pads I-I didn't mean to hurt her, it just happened… b-but now that you know and have talked to her ma-maybe we can fix this! I can make it up to her, and we can get back together. It could be a nice way to pay me back for helping you get away from your parents." Sirius saw red when he heard that and pushing Peter and Remus away he launched himself at James who was still sitting on the floor.
.......♡☆♡........
You were sure this time Luna was going to kill you, you were running late again. Today was her rehearsal dinner, and you were to be the maid of honor having been the one who introduced her to her fiancé, Percy, back in your Hogwarts days that now seemed so far away though it's only been two years.
You arrived and thankfully Penny had been able to cover for you with the instructions you provided just fine and after greeting a few guests you finally saw him sitting by the bar. Although you had seen him this morning before you both left for work, you couldn't help but be excited about being in his arms again.
"Excuse me for being too forward, but are you by any chance a single Miss?" You rolled your eyes at his cheeky antics but decided to play along.
"I'm afraid you've come too late Sir, my heart has been taken already and so has my hand" You say dramatically showing him your engagement ring.
"Oh really? He must be a lucky lad and very handsome obviously to be deserving of such a lady"
"Lucky indeed." At that, tired of playing games, you kissed him softly, which he quickly reciprocated. When you pulled away, you took the drink he had been previously nursing and pulled him to where dinner was about to be served. You both sat down next to Penny and her girlfriend.
"I'm just saying y/n we can only adopt so many pets before our house starts looking like a-" All of you were chatting animatedly when suddenly your fiancé stopped talking about why you shouldn't get another cat, and you felt him tense beside you. You looked at him and saw he was glaring at someone, so you followed his line of sight and saw no other than James Fleamont Potter standing there staring right back at you.
"I get what you're saying, love, but what if I just happened to stumble upon a homeless cat? I could not be so heartless as to just leave him there." You continued your conversation as if nothing happened, effectively regaining your lover's attention, leaving James Potter forgotten for now.
.......♡☆♡........
James heard your voice before he saw you, the voice that had been constantly hunting for the past two years. At first, he thought this was another one of his hallucinations until he saw you. You looked more beautiful than ever, and you were practically glowing. He couldn't help but freeze and just stare at you in pure awe. When you looked at him, he felt the air leave his body, yet he felt more alive than he had in these last two years. But you didn't even bat an eye and looked away, continuing your conversation as if nothing had happened.
James' heart dropped, you had clearly not been thinking about him the way he had been of you. He scanned the room to see if he perhaps could sit close to you, and that's when he saw him. A knot formed in James' throat as he saw him take your hand, and you smiled and looked at him the way you used to look at him back when you two were in love.
James cursed himself for arriving late, cause the only empty seat was too far away for his liking, but at least he could still watch you. He was entranced by you. He felt like he was the 17-year-old boy again, shocked to find out you liked him too. After dinner, music started playing and the soon-to-be weds invited all the couples to join them on the dance floor for a slow dance. James felt tears fill his eyes as he watched you make your way to the dance floor holding another man's hand while the biggest smile adorned your face.
.......♡☆♡........
"I cannot physically wait for this to be us." You smiled at your fiancé's words.
"I can't wait either."
"I love you y/n y/l/n"
"I love you, Sirius Black" You leaned in and kissed your fiancé while you two continued to sway to the song playing.

PLS let’s talk about the modern day Marauders fandom. The only good thing I like about it is the diversity in fancasting but even then there’s still weird ageism against women from other women, like why is the 35 year old woman from 10 years ago too old but not the 42 year old man, Emily?
Sorry, I didn't respond until now. It's been a busy week, and this is the first time I got on my computer in order to answer asks.
I've been a fan of the Marauders for 22 years. That's the majority of my life, and I know that my years in the fandom is even older than many that are currently in the Marauders fandom, so I'm probably considered ancient to many of them.
I say this as a warning because this is probably going to be a long one, so strap in
Tumblr media
I didn't even realize that they changed the actress for Lily. I'm not surprised though considering most of the modern Marauders fandom has pushed her out completely in favor of 2 characters that have never interacted in canon. Aka James and Regulus
Did they probably interact back in the day? Yes, but it doesn't change what I said.
I'm all for mlm. Just look at my blog for even a moment and it's obvious, but this big push in the last 10 years to give their favorite marauders big, dramatic gay romances and pushing out the amazing women that they 100% loved has always been a pet peeve. (Not to mention the amount of characterization that is CONSTANTLY ignored, making entirely different characters all together) However, ship and let ship has always been a policy for me, so whatever..
It just bugs me that these boys had such a loving brotherhood, but the fandom puts too much emphasis on romantic relationships (because we all love the smut) that they forget just how important their platonic relationships were to the entire plot of the story. Gods forbid men be allowed to show affection to each other the way women regularly do without there having to be something romantic between them.
That was an unexpected rant...sorry.
Anyway, it amuses me that they still refer to Andrew Garfield, Ben Barnes, and Aaron Taylor-Johnson as "Young Marauders", yet they are all in their 30s and 40s. Ben Barnes is officially older than Gary Oldman was when he was cast as Sirius. Andrew is the same age that David Thewlis was when he was cast as Remus.
Don't even get me started on the casting of Aaron Taylor-Johnson. I, personally, have never actually had him as my fancast when reading fics. James and Lily fancasting have always been more personal ones that change with my mood..probably because I really am such a Jily shipper.
It's honestly been so long since I even tried looking at Marauders' stuff that I'm not up to date with any other fancasting. Sorry..
~*~*~
tl/dr: The modern marauders fandom has become very misogynistic over the years, pushing amazing women out; they ignore much of the characterization of the characters they claim to love, and they put too much focus on romantic relationships over platonic ones.

Doll Face Honey.
Lily Evans and James Potter had only one problem in their entire lives and it was that; no matter how much they love each other, they couldn't remind faithful. And by that time, staying together was just better than splitting out, and also, as a matter of fact, they were still in love with each other.
They thought that maybe they married too young. They weren't even in their twenties when they were expecting Harry, and Lily never had any boyfriend before James, on the contrary, he did had some girlfriends, nothing really official 'till Lily arrived.
Both of them were completely in love, James breathed and existed just to love Lily and Lily did everything she used to just to be loved by him, and the feeling still there, but the need of explore was also there, and they couldn't ignore any of them. Lily would never admit to James that she wanted them to see other people, she thought it would break his heart and his ego. And James would never tell Lily he wanted the same, because Lily was his precious flower, and he didn't want her to take it the wrong way, or think she was falling out of love because that was not the case.
Lily trusted James enough to think he would never cheat, that he was in fact a better person than she was, and James trusted Lily with all his body and soul as well, she was so loyal and honest that there was no way that she would cheat on him.
That's why James and Lily hid they're desires from each other, to not hurt their feelings. But they're lives were turning out quite well, they loved to go back home with the person their loved the most at the end of the day, and the feel of guilty was never chasing them because, well, that's what spells are for.
That afternoon was a quiet one. Lily and James were at home, the redhead was making a delicious dinner and James had his eyes fixated on you, the babysitter.
You were playing with Harry, and James couldn't stop looking at how your breasts would jump along with his son. He knew it was wrong, the way he was looking at you wasn't right. You were much younger than him and you were Remus' step-sister as well, which only made you the forbidden fruit, and one thing James loved most was what he wasn't supposed to have.
"I'm going out with the girls tonight" James gets out of his thoughts when he listens to his wife talking. "We're having dinner and I think we'll spend the night with Mary or Marlene"
"That sounds awesome, darling"
"I asked Y/N to stay the night so you can go out if you want to. Maybe Sirius?"
James nods at Lily's words, the only reason you could spend the night there was because Remus was doing some kind of internship for the weekend and you didn't want to spend the night alone. But it worked perfectly for him, because for the first time since your mother married Remus' dad he had you all for himself.
"I think Sirius has a family thing tonight" Lily makes a grin, looking at James and trying to think of something he could do, not really wanting him to spend the night alone when she wouldn't be. "It's alright, my love. I'll stay home, watch some movies maybe, have some fun. Have a peaceful night of sleep"
James chuckles and Lily nods at his direction, giving him the reason. It was true that Harry was much more calm when he was with you.
Lily finished dinner, it was your favorite. A simple dish but delicious when it came to Lily Evans' magic hands cooking it. Just as James, she thought you were cute too. Not only cute but hot, Lily gets really turned on when she would think of you in ways she shouldn't have. She liked to make your favorite dinner only to hear the soft moans you'll let out at the taste, and how your pretty lips would thank her, with your sweet voice mentioning her name.
Lily didn't feel ashamed for the way she was thinking of you, she was a woman, and she was smart, so she thought that if Remus, who was your step-brother, didn't bothered sexualize you in his thoughts and maybe actions, but she wasn't sure and she wasn't one to confirm what wasn't state, why would she pay any mind.
A few hours later, Lily finally leaves the house, making sure you put Harry to sleep and that you're all settle. You go to the principal door to tell her goodbye while James stays in their room.
"I hope you have a wonderful night, mommy" Lily smiles at the way you called her and leaves a kiss on your forehead "Kissie, mommy. Please"
You pout at her and she smiles at how cute you are, she leaves a tiny kiss on your lips and you see her walking to her Range Rover while she asks you to behave.
When you see her going you go upstairs, only to hear James calling you from his room.
"Y/N" He smiles bright and big, with those perl tooth of his "Thank Merlin you're here, c'mere, bunny I wanna show you something"
You just followed him, in your innocence, not thinking the nickname was inappropriate or something, you were used to get pet names all the time from Remus and Sirius, so you thought it was just a Marauders thing.
"I haven't feel quite well lately" He says, and you look at him with big worried eyes. He gets into the walking closet they have and gets out a moments later with just a tiny set of boxers covering his body. "I have a feeling here, but, c'mere, come closer" He asks, moving his hand to try and reach yours, when you finally allow him to take it, he drives it to his cock, getting it under his boxer "I don't know if I'm crazy or is it real" You touch his hard cock and look at him, confused at how it should feel. "Let me, okay, let me just take the boxers off, alright? Jus' so you can help me"
You nod, your features showing that you were truly worry for him. You liked James, he was the best boss you could imagine, he cared about you and he payed you really, really well, for just a few hours of watching Harry, so if you could do anything to help him you'll be more than happy to.
""Do you feel it?"
"I dunno, Mr. Potter. What should I feel?"
"How does it feels?"
"It feels hard" You quickly answer, not really giving it a second thought to your answer. James smiled at you and he took your hand, getting more turned on by the innocence you were showing.
He knew you were so innocent girl since the moment Remus introduce you to each other, you spend the biggest part of your youth in the church and you assisted a ton of reunions with christians who would tell you that the worst thing you could do was having sex. So you grew up apart from all the information you could have from it.
And James not only liked your innocence, he also liked the fact that you were a church girl and younger. Maybe he was crazy, sick and it was a twisted way of thinking, but he couldn't help it, he can't avoid the way his cock twitch by thinking of you, how it gets harder and harder every time he thinks on how fucking you would feel like, how stretching you out would be.
"I must be really sick then" You look at him worried "Would you mind helping me, baby?" You shake your head in fast movements "Helping me to get better, how does that sound?"
"Of course, anything you want, Mr. Potter"
"Ah, ah" He says, taking your hand and putting it on his cock "You don't call me that. Call me daddy, precious"
You frown at him, taking his cock in your hand as he was silently instructing you, kneeling in front of him when he took your head and started to push you down.
"But you're not my father, Mr. Potter"
"A father is someone who takes care of you, am I wrong, princess?" You shake your head, telling him that in fact, he was not. If there was something you learned by your mother's marriage with Mr. Lupin, was that a father was the one who cared for you and not the one who created you "And I take good care of you, don't I? I pay you really well, I reward you all the time, don't I? I spoil you, give you gifts all the time? Don't I deserve to be your daddy?"
And putting it in that way, he sounded right. He earned the privilege of you calling him daddy just as Sirius Black did. You thanked God for your life, you were a lucky girl, you not only found a father in Mr. Lupin, but he also gave you two daddies; Sirius Black and James Potter. And even thought Sirius black asked you to call him daddy about two months from now, he has never been able to make you feel like Remus Lupin does, one think you were also thankful for. He was an amazing step-brother, he cared for you, he helped you when your pussy was itching, he also taught you that word so you could tell him what was hurting and he could help you, just as the amazing brother he was. He made you feel good.
Remus never left you alone, maybe because he knew the way his best friends think of you, and the only time you got to be alone with Sirius Black was about fifteen minutes, where he taught you how to make him feel better by sucking his dick, he said you were sucking his sickness out of him, and that he felt so much better when you finished. You were a really lucky girl.
It was a rare occurrence that Remus allowed you to be alone with any of his friends, but to be fair, he thought Lily would be around; Lily Evans, the one he trusted the most with his little step-sister and the one he should trust a little less.
Lily had you calling her mommy before Sirius and James could even talk to you. Lily had you eating her out before Sirius could even think of having your lips around his cock.
But back to James, you nod at his answer and murmur a little 'Yes, daddy' before he smiled.
"Good girl" He says, patting your head "What about you make daddy feel good, baby, mmh? Make daddy no more ill"
You nod, eagerly to start, following carefully his instructions, your hand moving up and down.
"You see that white liquid, princess" You nod at his words, looking at the tip of his cock and then looking at him "Use it on your hands so it doesn't feel that rough"
You nod at his words and do as he asks you, going slow at first and then faster when he ask you to do it.
"Oh, my, Merlin, baby, you're so good. Please go, don't stop, bunny, don't stop, daddy's so close, so, so close, I'm about to feel better, Merlin you're doing it so, so good, babygirl. Go on, help daddy, okay?"
And just like that, James cum is now all over your hand, a tiny part of it is on your face and lips and James looks at you, amused at how pretty you looked with those worry doe eyes wondering if what you just did made him feel better.
"It's alright, baby bunny. You did so good, you're helping daddy so much, see how it isn't that hard anymore?" You nod with a smile, happy to have helped him "Now, do you wanna taste daddy's cum?"
"Cum?"
"Yes, princess. Daddy's cum is a kind of candy, It'll make you feel better"
"But I'm not ill, daddy"
"Yes, you are my beautiful girl. You see this?" He says, bending only a little to where you were so he could touch the wet patch on your shorts "That means you're a little ill too"
You look at him, worried and kinda scared.
"Don' wanna be ill, daddy"
"No worries, baby. Just do as I told you, alright?"
You nod, tasting James cum and pouting when you didn't like the flavor. It wasn't sweet as Sirius, it was bitter and you didn't like that taste in any food or candy.
"Daddy I don't like it. No good"
"C'mon, doll face. Make daddy happy, eat it, please"
You nod and try again, only wanting to make him happy but his flavor was something your mouth didn't want, so you pout at him again, this time your eyes were tearing a little.
"No, no, don't cry, beautiful, don't cry" He says, taking you and sitting you in his lap on the edge of the bed "What's the matter"
"Don' like it, daddy. Told you"
"I'm so sorry, my princess. C'mere, daddy's gonna clean it, fine?" You nod while cleaning your eyes and James starts to lick with his tongue the cum from your lips. "Open for daddy" He instructs before getting you closet to him for a kiss, his tongue was traveling from all your mouth, making you forget about the taste you found disgusting. "That better? All clean now"
"Just a spot left, daddy"
You say, and both of you knew it was a lie. You liked how James lips felt against yours and you wanted him to do it again, lucky you, he was eager to do so.
"Well, that's just unacceptable, isn't it?"
You nod and smile at him, letting a small moan when he starts to touch your pussy. He asks you to take your shorts off and you do, he takes the time to take your panties off and he starts to lick your clit carefully. At a slow pace, he wasn't having rushes and you were feeling relaxed at the pleasure.
"Baby, get on top, alright?" He asks and you nod, you've never been on top, you have only been under Remus. "I'll teach you how" James quickly answers when he sees the worry in your face, the one telling him that you obviously didn't know how to do it. He lies on the bed, waiting for you to make your way to him, grabbing your hips and sitting you on his abdomen, making you feel his cock hitting your back. "Ready to feel better, bunny? Daddy's only doing this to help you, okay? But no one has to know, is it fine?"
"Why not, daddy?"
"Because daddy's way to cure illness aren't the most populars. Some people don't like them"
"Is it bad, daddy?"
"No, princess" He says, leaning you to him to kiss your forehead "It isn't bad, it's just not the favorite way"
"M'kay, daddy. Won't tell"
"Attagirl"
You smile at his words and follow his instructions, getting his cock inside of you, tearing a little bit at how big he was while he was closing his eyes and moaning at how tight you felt around him.
He makes you go up and down on his cock, watching you with adoration and being patience while you were getting used to his size, when he saw you ready, he told you to go faster, so it would cure you better, and you do as he tells. Not really needing an explanation to do anything James wanted you to do.
Now you're jumping faster over him, making sounds every time your skin and his meet, now you weren't doing it for James anymore, you were following the velocity you felt like it, it was like an unconscious movement, you just knew how to jump on James cock, trying to make you feel better.
James looks at you and gets delated by your little moans and the way your face looks every time you make him thrusts into you. He can feel how you start to milk his cock and he knows your orgasm is also building because your movements are now faster and your moans are lauders.
"Daddy" You call him and he looks at you, giving you his full attention "Kissie, please"
He smiles at your cute petition and makes you bend to him to meet your lips. James envoys your movements but he needs more, so he starts to move his hips along with yours, going faster until he cums inside you. You get his cock out when you feel a hot sensation traveling through your body.
"That's daddy's cum, princess. I had to put it there because you couldn't eat it" You listen to him with attention and nod, like if his words were the universal true, believing everything he would say. You feel his cum dripping from your pussy and he smiles as he watch it falling in his cock.
"Go again, doll face. That's not enough to make you feel better"
"'Kay, daddy"
You quickly answer, getting his cock inside of you again and jumping over him like the last time, the difference being that now, you go straight to a fast motion, not waiting for your body to get used to him, you need to feel him deeper and just as if you were moving on automatic pilot, you continue jumping on him, every second faster until James starts to feel you squirting, a few drops going out of you making him feel them on his thighs.
He grabs your legs, pulling you out of him and making your squirt release all over him and Lily's sheets. He better find a spell to clean them if he doesn't want to confront the uncomfortable talk where he has to explain to his wife why the new set of sheets he put just two days ago was gone.
James stretches you with his hands, trying to get all of your squirt all of you and over him. When he knows it's all, he starts to stroke your pussy, gently, only to a few seconds later have two fingers inside you, moving rough and violently.
He takes your hand and puts it on his cock, telling you to touch it like you were doing when you first entered to the room.
"Daddy needs to go once more, baby. That's not enough for you to feel good, neither for daddy" He says, looking at you and how you were jerking him off "Imma fill you up with my cum, baby. How does that sound?"
"S'alright, daddy"
"Yeah? It's fine?" You nod at his question and he looks at you with a smirk "You know what cum does, don't you bunny?"
"It makes me feel better, daddy. No more ill"
"You know what else does?" You shake your head looking at him without stopping your movements in your hands "It makes you all round and pretty, baby. It gives you big breasts and makes you all full with babies, you want that, doll face? Want daddy's babies?"
"No, no babies, daddy, please"
"Oh, but you'll look too pretty, princess. Your belly'll get all round and big and pretty. You'll look stunning, princess, so gorgeous, you don't want that?"
"Wanna look pretty, daddy"
"Attagirl" He says, taking your hand off of him and putting his cock inside of you again.
You knew it was bad, because no amount of innocence couldn't hide the fact that you knew that having a baby with other woman who wasn't your wife was cheating, and cheating was a sin.
But it it was bad, then why's it feel so good?
"You're taking me so well, princess. Taking all my babies inside of you, you want that, right" You nod quickly at his words. "You want all of my babies?"
"Yes, yes, daddy"
"But if you take all of them what about Lily? What if she's ill one day"
"Don' want Lily to have them, daddy, I want them"
"Selfish pretty little thing, aren't you?"
Lily could go to any other man to feel better, just as she does, you could help her too as you usually do, but in that moment you wanted James for you and only you, you didn't care that he was Lily's husband, she was born first, of course she would have him, and it was just not fair.
"Go on, baby, if you wanna feel better you better move"
"M'tired, daddy"
"Just one more, princess, alright? Just one more and daddy'll put you to sleep. I'll take care of you, mmh? How does that sound?"
You nod and go for another round, but it wasn't just enough for James, he wanted to see how far his cock could go when it came to you and of course he wanted to know how far he could get you.
So, by the time you had your third orgasm, you couldn't move on top of him anymore, James, being the gentleman he is, put you under him, just letting you lie in there. He told you your only job now was looking pretty and make those pretty moans he loved so much.
He managed to get another orgasm from you, he could see it on your eyes, you were exhausted, you've been going all night and you weren't used to that. Remus never pushed you too far and neither did Lily. Sirius would love to, but there was no reason, under any circumstance, that Remus Lupin would leave Sirius Black alone in a room with you for more than fifteen minutes.
Nor that you weren't enjoying it, because you were, so much, but you couldn't make the tiredness go away anymore.
"Daddy, sleepy"
"I know, princess. Just one more for daddy, 'kay?"
"No more, daddy. Just sleepy"
"Give me one more, doll face. Just one. You're such a pretty and obedient little girl, you gotta give daddy what his asking you, don't you wanna make daddy feel good?"
"Still feeling ill, daddy?"
"A little, princess. That's why I need ya"
You pout, you wanted to help him, of course you wanted, but your body wasn't just responding anymore.
"Jus' one more daddy"
"And that'll make it five" You nod with a smile and closed eyes, James doesn't even ask you to open them anymore, he just concentrates on your tiny whimpers and your soft moans, along with your shaky body announcing that you're getting your fifth release of the night. Leaving him satisfied and smiling.
He takes care of you as he promised. He makes sure you're all clean with your PJ's and he stays by your side in the room you were staying for a few hours before making his way to the room he shared with Lily to start cleaning.
The next morning, Remus picks you up first thing as he was freed from the internship. He thanks Lily for taking care of you and she just omits the part where she mentions she wasn't there for the whole night.
"Hope she doesn't give you much problem"
"Oh, no, Remus" Lily quickly answers, looking at you with a smile "She's an absolute angel"
Lily bites her lips, reminding you of what she couldn't finish and you smile at her. Remus and James thinking you both were too innocent to mean something else with that bite and that smile, they knew you both were two friends, so to them, it meant nothing but a cute way of communicating in your friendship.
"She's so well behaved" James says "You're so lucky to have her, moony. She's an excellent girl"
Remus answer, looking at you and hugging you more to his body.
"Oh, she's the best"

lies & bets
❦ pairings: sirius black x fem!reader
❦ warnings: fluff, ANGSTTT, KINDA smut.
❦ summary: you find out something. and it certainly isn't good.
❦ word count: 1,4k
❦ a/n: not my gif.
Tumblr media
because of his not so good reputation with ladies, you would never though you'd give him a chance and actually end up in a relationship with him.
but there you were; in an almost six months relationship and you couldn't be happier.
you loved him and he loved you.
the relationship was beautiful.
but, as always, nothing good lasts forever.
let's take it from the beggining.
"listen, y/n," said sirius one sunny september day when you two walked from your last period of that afternoon. "you. me. tomorrow evening. and sunset."
"are you asking me on a date, black?" you raised an eyebrow.
"that's exactly what i'm doing, y/l/n."
"and you're asking me to watch sunset with you?" you smiled. "wow, you truly know how to bewitch a girl."
"i can steal some food from the kitchens and we can have a picnic if you'd like."
"oh, stop, it sirius," you laughed, "or you're gonna make me fall in love with you."
that was his goal.
that was exactly his goal.
but you didn't know that.
• • •
and that's how it started. by a beautiful date where you watched sunset, ate some snacks and listened to some cheesily romantic songs on your muggle player. it was fun. you hadn't felt like that in a long time.
you two had gone to two more dates before you made things official. you couldn't believe that. you couldn't believe that sirius, a boy you loved since your second year, asked you on a date and then asked you to be his girlfriend. could your life be any better?
it could but you didn't know that.
everyone was happy for you and sirius. well, your best friends, mary, lily and marlene warned you about him. after all, you knew about how he treated ladies but you knew he changed. you thought he changed.
marauders' -excluding sirius- reactions confused you. they said they were glad you two got together but at the same time the three of them looked at each other with that look of theirs that you didn't quite understand whenever you talked about sirius or when you and your boyfriend were affective in front of them.
they knew something but you had no idea.
by the time december arrived, you were completely in love with the black boy and it was quite noticeable. you stared at him in classes and he took advantages of that: he ran his hand trough his black locks or looked back at you and winked, causing your cheeks turn to dark shade of pink. during classes he also sent you notes in which were compliments written or that he's happy you're his. you we're startled when he was the first one to say the l word and not you.
and you believed that.
your gaze sadly missed the times when the other three marauders – mostly james and remus, but peter sometimes too – sent him pleading looks that quite literally screamed "stop it". your eyes, however didn't miss the times when one of the three boys whispered something to sirius and the boy's response was a sharp "no", "shut up" or "i'm not going to stop".
but stop what?
you didn't know.
and the fourteenth of february you had your first sex with sirius - first sex ever.
you could tell he was surprised when you said you were ready to be intimate with him that valentine's day, but did he complain? no.
cause this was his goal too.
but you didn't know that.
you wanted him to be your first because you would already trust him with your life if you had to.
before you two had sex, he asked you at least milion times if you were ready and told you that if you'd feel uncomfortable or in pain, you will have to tell him to stop. you loved that even though he was obviously horny, he still cared about your pleasure more than his.
that's what you loved about him the most.
the care he held for you.
the sex was amazing, more than amazing actually. you never heard more praises than you heard that night when he pounded to you slowly. you loved the way how his sweet moans and swear words slipped his mouth into your ears.
the after-care was perfect. sirius ran a bath for you that was just the perfect temperature, with bubbles that smelled like strawberries. sirius sat on a stool next to the bath and read little women to you. his voice was so beautiful and you felt so tired and relaxed that you almost fell asleep.
later, the two of you cuddled in bed, sirius was whispering how much beautiful you are and how much he loves you. you didn't know where were the other marauders that night but you were grateful they weren't there.
you fell asleep to sirius' heartbeats.
• • •
sirius did feel guilty about the whole thing.
he soon began to realize what kind of dickhead he was to do such a stupid thing like that.
what was the worst thing? that he began to fall in love with you. why was it the worst? because his plan was only to make you fall in love with him, fuck you and throw you away like a trash. but now, that he caught romantic feelings, he couldn't do that and wished you would never find out what was the whole relationship from the beggining.
a game.
just a bloody game.
• • •
it was just a few days after you lost your virginity - 22nd of february, to be spcific - when you were doing your potions homework in the library. sirius was on his afternoon class so you were alone. the room was quiet, just how you liked it.
however, the quietness was soon ruined by james potter.
"y/n, i need to talk to you," he said breathlessly. you were sure he was running the whole way from his dorm to here.
"no, james." you shook your head. "i'm not going to try to convince lily to go on a date with you."
"that's not why i'm here." he sat on the chair opposite to you.
you furrowed your eyebrows. "okay, what is it, then?"
he took a deep breath, looking nervous. that made you worried because seeing james nervous was not something you could see often.
"it was a bet, y/n. . ."
you gulped, knowing what he meant but didn't want to believe it. "w-what was a bet?"
he gave you a look and that was everything to make you tear up.
you couldn't tell that you were surprised, you expected something like this in the beginning, but you thought he change. still, you didn't want to believe that he would waste seven months of his life just for a couple of galleons.
"how much?"
james sighed. "five galleons."
"five galleons?" you humourlessly laughed. "i'm worth more than that."
joking about your problems is the best coping mechanism.
you slowly packed your things. "if he asks where i am, don't tell him. don't tell anyone." and with that, you left the library.
• • •
the black lake was your favorite place. it used to be whenever sirius was but you couldn't bear his presence from this day for obvious reasons.
words couldn't describe how naive and sad you felt at that moment. you never felt so broken. and the worst thing about it was that sirius, the boy who you thought was the love of your life, caused you this much pain.
a black dog approached you, snuggling his nose into your arm.
"go away, sirius," you spoke quietly, pushing the dog away slightly.
snuffles took a couple of steps away in confusion.
"i know about the bet," you explained and the dog lowered its ears. "i just have a few things to say before we'll never talk to each other again. first, don't turn back now, i don't thing i could bear to look at your stupid face. second, i want to let you know how much i hate you, but at the same time i would forgive you right now, right here because no matter how much you hurted me, i still love you. third, i honestly hope you burn in hell since i don't believe you would get into heaven considering the amount of people you hurt. fourth, i want you to not contact me or try to talk to me until my death. you can beg for forgiveness however you want, but i, y/n y/l/n, will never forgive you, sirius black."

About Remadora
When I say I really hate the HP fandom, I'm talking about the "fans" that hate everything about the saga, but still having Harry Potter accounts. They change the original story, claim that fanonical facts are canon, and launch hatred and death threats at those who simply like HARRY POTTER JUST THE WAY IT IS. Yes, I'm mostly talking about Marauders fans, which I joined after reading the books because I thought it would be interesting and funny. I suddenly realized how toxic and hateful that fandom was, it's like a cult dedicated to deifying Remus, Sirius, James and Regulus, and it seems that hating Snape, Dumbledore, and Remadora is a requirement to be a part of it.
At the beginning I used to consider Wolfstar as something funny, a bromance, it never bothered me, I mean... every fandom has fanon ships and I respect that, but the way they always hate Remadora and their shippers is something that MUST stop.
"You see!" said a strained voice. Tonks was glaring at Lupin. "She still wants to marry him, even though he's been bitten! She doesn't care!"
"It's different," said Lupin, barely moving his lips and looking suddenly tense. "Bill will not be a full werewolf. The cases are completely -"
"But I don't care either, I don't care!" said Tonks, seizing the front ofLupin's robes and shaking them. "I've told you a million times. . . ." And the meaning of Tonks's Patronus and her mouse-colored hair, and the reason she had come running to find Dumbledore when she had heard a rumor someone had been attacked by Greyback, all suddenly became clear to Harry; it had not been Sirius that Tonks had fallen in love with after all."
"And I've told you a million times," said Lupin, refusing to meet her eyes,staring at the floor, "that I am too old for you, too poor . . . too dangerous. . ."
When I read this part of the HBP I realized that Remadora was my favorite Harry Potter ship. Of course I wasn't aware of the death threats I'd receive later. I've read some "reasons" why some fans hate Remadora.
"Tonks forced him!"
We all know how insecure Remus was. I don't have to explain what's written in Wizarding World (Pottermore). This is the Remus bio:
Well, we can read that Remus was really attracted to Dora.
"Remus, so often melancholy and lonely, was first amused, then impressed, then seriously smitten by the young witch. He had never fallen in love before. If it had happened in peacetime, Remus would have simply taken himself off to a new place and a new job, so that he did not have to endure the pain of watching Tonks fall in love with a handsome, young wizard in the Auror office, which was what he expected to happen. However, this was war; they were both needed in the Order of the Phoenix, and nobody knew what the next day would bring. Remus felt justified in remaining exactly where he was, keeping his feelings to himself but secretly rejoicing every time somebody paired him with Tonks on some overnight mission".
This is so sad and cute, and that's undeniable. I cried when I read it. If someone still thinking that Dora forced Remus to marry her after reading this paragraph... I mean... they're probably talking about another book series.
"The age gap!"
I'm so satisfied to know that some Remadora shippers have explained this. When it's about a kid and an adult... OF COURSE IS HORRENDOUS! Because children are not physically and mentally prepared to have romantic relationships. Wizards are legally adults at 17, REMUS MET TONKS WHEN SHE WAS 21!
I mean, many old people abuses of young people innocence, or something. But we all know that Remus wasn't one of those! He really loved Tonks, and that's canon. I don't know what's doing in the fandom people who denies canon facts.
Remus and Tonks were two physically, mentally, and legally adults loving each other.
"Remus didn't love her!"
He was an introvert, Tonks was an extrovert, she made his life better. And of course, I loved the way he introduced himself when he was trying to prove he wasn't a Death Eater:
"I am Remus John Lupin, werewolf, sometimes known as Moony, one of the four creators of the Marauder's Map, married to Nymphadora, usually known as Tonks, and I taught you how to produce a Patronus, Harry, which takes the form of a stag." (Remus Lupin, DH)
Maybe I'm not the only one who perceive he was proud to be Nymphadora Tonks husband.
"I.. I made a grave mistake in marrying Tonks. I did it against my better judgment and have regretted it very much every since". (Remus Lupin, DH)
This phrase makes more sense after reading Remus bio. He used to think that he was "too poor, too dangerous" for her. He thought he wasn't enough for her. He never imagined that she would love him back. He was a werewolf, and of course he knew he was dangerous, you only need to be emphatic to realize he tried to get away from Tonks because he loved her, he didn't want to hurt his beloved woman!
If you don't believe me, read this again. It's in the chapter 11 of Deathly Hallows:
"Don't you understand what I've done to my wife and my unborn child? I should never have married her, I've made her an outcast!"
So, if Remus was trying to escape it's because he loved them, he thought he spoiled their lives. And of course, no one likes to feel that their influence is bad for someone they love!
"Their relationship came from nowhere! They don't have a development"
Well, the saga's name is HARRY POTTER, not The Love Life of Remus Lupin. The story is about the tragic life of this kid and everything he went through to save the world of a cruel and dark villain. I know many readers are young people in love, and they only want to ship everything, but that's not the main topic here, maybe mother's love would be the topic. Of course Ron and Hermione had a development because they were HARRY'S BEST FRIENDS, and they were always with him, from Philosopher's Stone to Cursed Child. Remus and Tonks are minor characters, and it's funny the fact that this usually comes from Wolfstar shippers, so... is Wolfstar more developed than Remadora?! I mean... they can ship whatever they want, Snape and the Sorting Hat, Dobby and Voldemort, anything, but that does not give them the right to disrespect such a cute, tragic and beautiful canon ship as Remadora.
"They are queercoded! Their relationship is homophobic!"
It's surprising to hear this. It's like... people gets angry just because the author doesn't make queer their favourite characters? I will explain why I don't think Remus and Tonks are "queercoded":
Whether through their dress, their behavior, their language, or other subtle forms of implication, queer characters were written or designed to communicate their unstated queerness to those who were searching for representation.
And this is the definition on the website Pride.com:
"Using LGBTQIA tropes and stereotypes to allude to a character's sexuality without explicitly confirming it in the text."
We all know that Disney used queercoding on characters like Ursula, Scar, Jaffar. And why do we know that? Because DISNEY WANTED TO PORTRAY THEM LIKE THAT, get it? Disney, THE CREATORS MADE THESE CHARACTERS INTENTIONALLY QUEER. How? BASED ON STEREOTYPES.
And going back to Remadora, I was really happy to see by first time a bada*ass woman, with short hair who wasn't portrayed as a lesbian just because the way she looks. This character didn't follow the: "Straight women have long hair and are girly", and "short dyied hair is for lesbians". I'm very very very surprised the fandom follows these stereotypes.
About Remus: I don't know how the phrase "being a werewolf is a metaphor about people with HIV AIDS" means "he's gay". Fenrir Greyback bit him when he was a kid. Many people interpret this as "r4pe". Okay, even thinking that it is the meaning of the "bite", I still cannot understand how being "r4ped" and "infected" makes him queer. Is this (again) a stereotype about people with AIDS and gay?
"JK Rowling created Remadora because she didn't like people shipping Wolfstar!"
It is true that fans love shipping everything, they queerbait and queercode everything. That's great, that's not the problem. The problem is when people starts bashing fans who ship canon straight couples. A very good example is the polemic on Falcon and Bucky relationship, some fans wanted them to be a gay couple, Anthony Mackie said that two men can only be friends, and there is no need to always give them a romantic connotation. People cancelled him, they called him homophobic. Yes, just because a person with authority (on the story they're following") didn't like the fact of queercoding their favourite characters. It's the same about Remadora.
Grindeldore is a very interesting and underrated couple by the way. You can love or hate JK Rowling, but the truth is that Harry Potter story is hers, and even if Remadora was "because she didn't like Wolfstar", she is the author, it was her mind where these characters first appeared, as a big Harry Potter fan I respect and like the original story, that's not a sin. An author has the right to make some changes if some characters were misunderstood by the readers.
(Yes, I wrote this a bit angrily since I've seen too much hate towards Remadora shippers)

in the meantime of me working on rcu (regulus cinematic universe), i thought about just sharing some of my own headcanons of other characters who may or may not intervene in regulus's story. these things i will be describing have still happened and are sort of canon in the world where my short stories take place.
please do keep in mind that we all envision marauders & co. in different ways which means my marlene/mary/sirius/remus might not fit your own imagination exactly. i am just opening my imagination to you and you are more than welcome to take whatever fits for your own depiction of the character and leave the rest be. no need for crude words if you do not agree.
if you'll have any questions about a headcanon or are curious to know more of my ideas about a certain character(s) who hadn't been mentioned more in-depth - my inbox is open so please redirect your possible questions over there :)
♥ marlene headcanons over here ♥ → mary headcanons over here ←
now for the star of the show, please welcome dorcas meadowes:
a slytherin queen
definitely poc, in my head she's always been quite short, not petite necessarily but definitely not tall. always felt she would be pan? can't really explain why but it's just a gut feeling?
one of the things that i cannot unsee is that she has very kind eyes? like... i don't know how to really describe it but she's a very sweet and caring person and her eyes just let you know where home is. (i enjoy her casting as laura harrier, she has very memorable beautiful eyes)
peter has an enormous crush on dorcas because she is the way that she is. she sees him - when he's trying to fit in really hard with the guys and is overstepping the line sometimes, or gets ignored by james and sirius.
dorcas picks up on peter's self-esteem issues right away and pays extra attention to him when they are around each other, she tries to talk to him, and engages him in things/conversations/whatever is happening. which just feeds peter's crush even more.
dorcas is intelligent but oblivious. she does not pick up on pete's crush - ever - and she's pretty much the only one. everyone can see it but her.
the guys try to help peter with confessing, but he's too scared she would "politely refuse" and it would be weird between them.
but the marauders, ehm, ehm, james and sirius, try really hard to get him to confess and make peter mad in the process because he told them plenty of times that he doesn't want to. he acts like he's really offended but his silence lasts only for about an hour and then he's joking around with the boys again. he can't help himself.
dorcas's relationship with the marauders is rather complicated. she's neutral towards remus, but she really was not a fan of james and sirius at first. she saw them as mavericks, didn't like how much they would misbehave in class and literally at any other given time. dorcas knew that they had a lot of influence on pete who she saw as very impressionable. she didn't like the influence they had on him, how they shaped him you could say.
but when they grew a bit older and dorcas heard the gossip about what had happened with sirius (she tried to ask regulus about it, but on her relationship with the younger brother later), how james was there for him, how all four of the marauders stuck up for one another... they grew on her.
around year six she became their official friend. sirius was especially fond of her since she was proof that not all slytherins have to be bad people and he would often call her the 'honorary slytherin' at order meetings.
dorcas has a younger brother with who she is not that close, but they still care about each other. his name is wesley, he's a slytherin as well.
wesley never joined the dark side and he never fought in the first wiz. war. he survived it and became an auror to honor dorcas and to make sure that he catches dangerous people sot that nobody has to lose a sister like he did.
wesley ends up marrying a woman called irene. she's from a family full of metamorphmagi but irene only inherited a bit of the gene. she can only change one part of herself - her nose shape.
they have a son together named levi who also inherits the same partial gift and is in slytherin. levi is a year above harry potter. levi ends up having a daughter - aarin dorcas meadowes - who is also partially metamorphmagi, in slytherin and is the same age as albus potter. it's a long story but james sirius and aarin do end up together in the end, it's a wild ride but they are absolutely perfect for one another.
dorcas has a frog! i am not quite sure about the name, but fun fact, avery and rosier put dorcas's frog in mulciber's pants when he's taking a nap in the common room after quidditch practice. regulus is present while it happens and he writes about it in his diary.
regulus is an artsy person. when he was young especially it had been easier to express himself through drawings. he gets better with his words over time. his diary features two drawings of dorcas. playing chess while having her frog in her lap and her running through the hogwarts grounds to hide from the rain hand in hand with pete. regulus sees them from the window in his lesson and as i wrote - everybody but dorcas knows about the crush.
dorcas is also veeeery good at chess. regulus also enjoys chess, so they play matches against each other. there is usually very little talking happening just plain strategy.
but dorcas does like regulus to some extent, there's definitely mutual respect (dorcas is one of the very few people he respects in the school), he's her chess buddy, she smiles and waves at him in the hallways, she's comfortable to sit with him at the slytherin table or at the library while studying.
until he lets it be known that he is fully on the deatheaters side - he's a sixth year and dorcas is in her last year at that point.
she's similar to regulus to a great extent - that's why they gravitated to each other. they are both on the quieter side, big observers, soft-spoken (dorcas all the time, regulus once people get to know him better). both of them hate violence, dorcas tries to avoid conflict as much s possible. she keeps to herself when she has only bad things to say.
but don't get me wrong, when someone pisses her off or does something that steps over the line (and trust me, her line is difficult to overstep, she withstands a lot) her eyes aren't as kind anymore. they can grow very cold suddenly. just as she is understanding with kind eyes, she can turn on her bitch face and be cold as ice.
she'll still be polite to the people she doesn't like (ehm, ehm.. like the marauders at first), she greets them even if they don't greet her back. if she's paired up with them for some exercises or projects, she never lets emotions or some kind of pettiness take over her. she wouldn't try to make their grade worse, hurt them, or embarrass them in front of others to let them know what she thinks of them.
her main reason to join the order and fight to stop the war is the horrible violence that's all around them inflicting pain. she thinks about the little kids at hogwarts, and the ones out there who are too young to even have a wand yet. she thinks of their parents who all must be absolutely terrified for the future of their children. she fights for a brighter future for everyone but families especially. parents can't and shouldn't put themselves in such danger since they have to be there for their kids. so she decides to raise her wand in their place and heads to battle.
inevitably dumbledore pays attention to her and her qualities. so, when he gets a suspicion that they might have a spy amongst them he asks dorcas to pay extra close attention and report back to him if she notices anything strange. she's the only one of the young recruits with a quiet solid nature so dumbledore believes that since she's close with all the youngsters, she'll be more or less able to blend in with the crowd unnoticed, which will allow her to notice possible unusual behavior in the younger ranks. she's probably the best at reading people out of all of them.
dorcas notices that peter has been feeling down a lot lately and tries to speak to him about it. he just says the classic 'it's because of the war, everything is different, it's scary, blablabla'.
but he can't fool her, she knows that something is up, but she would NEVER ever think he could be the spy. never in her wildest dreams. he just does not have the guts to do something like that in her eyes.
but she does follow him to find out what is going on with him. and that's when she comes face to face with voldemort. peter had a meeting with him, it was very early on, maybe like the third time he saw voldemort personally.
voldemort kills dorcas in front of peter and peter feels horrible and blames himself for it.
the marauders and the order think it's because he liked her. that he failed to protect dorcas and regrets not telling her how he felt about her because now she'll never know. that's why they don't grow suspicious about his strange behavior. but that's only a part of why he's distraught.
snape finds out how dorcas died and tells sirius and the rest of the order in 1995, so they finally understand how involved peter truly was.
remus goes to tell her family so that maybe over time they may find peace in knowing what exactly happened to her.

─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
Another month had passed and it was the time for the ball. Nothing had changed and Sirius was still going to take [Y/n] to the ball, even though they still didn't make their "relationship" (or whatever they had) official. Many other students knew there's something going on between them. Sirius and [Y/n] weren't showing off any public display of affection, but people noticed how they started hanging out more and being less mean to each other. In private, where nobody could see, they weren't hiding how much head over heels they're for one another. Kind of private if we skipped the other three Marauders, who would leave the lovebirds only on dates. Usually. They just had to make sure [Y/n] is treating Sirius well and doesn't give him any kind of a love potion. But after a few weeks James, Remus and Peter understood that [Y/n] could be pretty nice to hang around with when she wasn't near her Slytherin friends.
To the ball [Y/n] wore a scarlett dress, so that she would match Sirius, who was wearing a black suit with a scarlett tie. Once they arrived, a few (well, most of) girls were sending jealous looks towards [Y/n]. It was obvious that Sirius Black was Hogwarts' biggest heartthrob and a lot of girls were either attracted to him or hated him for breaking their hearts. Obviously, [Y/n] was beautiful herself, but she wasn't a heartbreaker. Before she got closer to Sirius, she wasn't into any other boy from the school like this. She was friends with Owen and Regulus and used to hang around with other Slytherin (and sometimes Ravenclaw) boys, but that was it. She never seeked for a relationship, actually she used to be sure her parents would eventually push her into an arranged marriage eventually.
As they walked on the dancefloor, [Y/n] looked around the Great Hall. The decorations were gorgeous, a few Hufflepuffs and some Gryffindors took care of these decorations and they did a good job. For the night there was no "house tables", people sat wherever they wanted to and neither house was favoured since Minerva McGonagall was the patron of the Decorating Committee, instead of Albus Dumbledore.
[Y/n]'s eyes stopped on Marlene McKinnon, who came to the ball with her girl friends. Even if [Y/n] wasn't on the best terms with her, she had to admit the blonde girl looked stunning. Suddenly their eyes met, [Y/n] tried to send a smile towards Marlene, but the girl crossed her arms and with a light smile turned her head back to her friends.
After the first dance, [Y/n] and Sirius sat at a table with James, Remus and Peter. Since James didn't manage to make Lily Evans go to the ball with him, Remus and Peter didn't want to bring anyone either. Totally not because they were too shy to ask a girl out.
[Y/n] already liked Remus and Peter, they were kind and helpful, but it was a little harder to take a liking to James. The ball changed it though when [Y/n] noticed how he danced with girls who didn't have a partner. Maybe James Potter wasn't that much of an arrogant git. He could be nice when he wanted to.
"Hey, I want to show you something", Sirius suddenly said and dragged [Y/n] out of the Great Hall. Holding each other's hands, they ran. They ran and [Y/n] was confused, because she didn't know where to.
They ended up on the Astronomy Tower. It was quiet and peaceful. The view, even though dark, was pretty. Suddenly, [Y/n] noticed Sirius was holding a bottle of firewhiskey in his hand. He probably hid it at the Tower a few hours before. Because he woudn't steal it out of the Great Hall, would he? [Y/n] thought.
Sirius opened the bottle and took a big sip. He scrunched his nose and then offered the bottle to [Y/n]. The girl hesitantly took it from him. She scanned the bottle with her eyes. C'mon, if it was poisoned he'd be dead by now, the girl thought. She also took a sip and felt the burning liquid in her throat.
The lovebirds ended up laying on the floor together, cuddled up and passing the bottle back and forth to one another. The clear night sky was a perfect opportunity for stargazing.
"Look there," Sirius pointed at some place on the sky, "this is Sirius. The brightest star on the night sky."
"Also known as the Dog Star," [Y/n] added, "is your patronus a dog?" the girl laughed.
"Yes. Yes, it is. What's yours?"
"I don't know. I was never able to...you know..."
"I have to teach you then!" Sirius exclaimed and kissed [Y/n]. The both of them tasted like firewhiskey, which killed even the orange smell [Y/n] had. The girl loved oranges and couldn't imagine a day without eating a few of them.
Suddenly the couple heard someone walking up the stairs. They broke the kiss and gestured each other to be silent. The footsteps were extremely quiet, quieter than light sobbing that filled their ears a few seconds after. [Y/n] and Sirius stood up and walked closer to the source of the sound.
"Reg..." [Y/n] whispered when the sobbing person turned out to be Regulus. He looked at her, then at Sirius. The older Black's face remained still and suddenly emotionless, while the younger Black had tears falling down his face.
"Go. Away." Regulus muttered, hanging his head down so that he could hide his tears.
"Regulus." [Y/n] said with a steady voice.
"I said. Go away!" The younger Black stood up, with no tears on his face anymore. Now he looked emotionless just like his brother. His took out his wand not really pointing it at anyone.
"Hey!" Sirius said cautiously with his own wand at ready.
Regulus backed off a little with his wand pointing at Sirius. They stared at each other in silence but with rage flaming in their eyes.
"What happened?" [Y/n] asked, breaking the silence, "you were crying, Regulus."
The younger Black muttered something under his breath and began walking away. [Y/n] took out her own wand and used a non-verbal spell to stop him.
"Regulus Arcturus Black," [Y/n]'s voice was now demanding, "I asked you a question."
"And I don't wanna answer. Let me go!" Regulus shouted.
"I am your friend, not enemy..."
"Shut up!"
"Don't yell at her!" Sirius chimed in.
"Fucking blood traitors." Regulus' voice was quiet as if he didn't want to say it. [Y/n] got upset and let him go. She never seen Regulus so aggressive before.
[Y/n] had lost the mood to party, so she spent the rest of the night with Sirius on the Astronomy Tower. They were comforting each other. Even if Sirius wouldn't show it in public, he was really sad about his relations with Regulus.
"I wonder what happened to him. He's my little brother and I love him, but things are so difficult. And it's my fault. If I was in Slytherin, everything would be different. Better." Sirius confessed. He was close to crying, one tear was falling on his cheek already. Normally he wouldn't let himself be so vulnerable around a girl, but [Y/n] was different. He fell for her how he haven't fell for a girl before. He wasn't afraid of losing his heartthrob reputation in her eyes.
"Sirius, it's not your fault." [Y/n] hugged him without even noticing she probably called him by his first name for the first time ever. The boy smiled but decided not to point it out right now. Later, maybe (author's note: if the author doesn't forget lmao).
"No, [Y/n], it is my fault. I should protect Reggie. I hate him sometimes, but I would hurt myself if something happened and I wouldn't be able to help him. I have to do something before it's too late."
"Sirius-"
"No, you don't understand it. I can't let him become a death eater." He didn't let her finish what she was going to say. It angered [Y/n] and caused her to pull away from Sirius. With a serious look on her face and anger in her voice, she said:
"You're right. I don't understand it. How could I understand it if my brother became a death eater when I was a kid and was oblivious to it the whole time?! How could I understand it if I found out about my brother working for Voldemort just a few months ago?! How could I understand... I know nothing about it, right, Black?"
"[Y/n], I'm sorr-"
"I don't care. Goodnight, Black"
─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
Days had passed. [Y/n] didn't talk to Sirius, even if he tried to start a conversation. Maybe the girl was exaggerating it, but she was still angry. She was hurt. She felt belittled by Sirius. How could he say she didn't understand him? Even if [Y/n] was only twelve years old when Cieran became a death eater and found out about it recently, it didn't mean she didn't get how Sirius felt. When [Y/n] found out her brother was a death eater she was sad and angry. She didn't show it on the outside. She cried a few nights in a row. She wished she could go back in time with the knowledge she had now and try to stop Cieran from becoming a death eater. But she couldn't. Sirius still had time. But [Y/n] knew how he felt about Regulus.
Even after months, [Y/n] still didn't want to have to do anything with Sirius. She stopped hanging out with him and the rest of Marauders. Thankfully she had Circe and Owen. And Regulus, who was like a brother to her. Sometimes she looked at the younger Black and thought how she was more of a family to him than his actual family. Even if Sirius wanted to try to be a good brother, he would then do something to mess it up again.
If [Y/n] and Sirius talked, it was because they were arguing. During one of their fights, [Y/n] pointed out how much of a shitty brother Sirius is. She pointed out every single one of his flaws and every single one of the mistakes he made. She was definitely exaggerating, but she didn't care.
"It's difficult being a good brother, while he hates me only for being in a different house!" Sirius shouted.
"Oh yeah?" [Y/n] laughed sarcastically, "has Regulus ever told you that he feels rejected by you? Rejected for being sorted into Slytherin. You were the one to stop talking to him in your second year. Regulus used to look up to you. And you rejected him, you started ignoring him, you didn't let him-"
"He could tell me! He was the one to stop coming to our meetings on the Astronomy Tower, has he told you about that?"
"He got caught by a teacher sneaking out. You would know if you weren't such a coward! How much courage do you need to talk to your own brother in public?!"
"You don't know how hard it is to-"
"No, don't start again! At this point I am more of a sibling to Reg. Pull yourself together, Black."
The truth was, Sirius' pride made it difficult to talk to Regulus in public. Other students didn't know anything, they all thought the Black brothers hated each other. At some point eventually even the brothers thought they hated each other. People could describe it as a platonic, sibling-wise love-hate relationship. They acted like they hate each other, because they had to. Because their pride didn't let them act diffrent.

I agree with your Jily thoughts but wondering if you could talk a bit more about it? Why did James bother wasting all that time chasing Lily? Was she just that pretty? Were they ever happy or truly in love? Why did she say yes? If the war didn't happen who would have Jily ended up with? I'd like to think someone like Andromeda (not her exactly, but someone from a pureblood family who held non racist values) for James and i dunno maybe a muggle for Lily? Considering muggleborns arent exactly set up for success and I cant see Lily being okay with living as a second class citizen
For reference, some heretical thoughts on James and Lily's marriage. Also some thoughts on James which include some thoughts on his relationship with Lily.
And you really want me to get flayed over the internet, don't you anon?
Well, I guess that's what I'm here for. So here we go, hopefully people very upset by this sort of thing have their anti filters up.
Why Did James Bother Wasting All that Time Chasing After Lily?
For what it's worth, especially when they're teenagers before real life sets in, I do think James likes Lily.
She's very pretty, which certainly helps, but she's also very driven, very smart, and seems to be very personable (though it does not seem as if she is close with many).
Lily has a lot of likeable qualities beyond just her face that James could be interested in.
That said, there's also her background. I think, especially for a young James in Hogwarts, Lily being muggleborn would make her very appealing.
By pursuing her, he is actively spitting in the face of the Blacks, the Malfoys, and pretty much name your smarmy pureblood family. More, Lily is... not the token muggleborn per se, but the golden standard.
She's pretty, very smart, achieves very good results, again is personable, and all around pleasant. She's the muggleborn that defies the rules and you can take to parties and say, "Wow, look how amazing muggleborns are!"
Compare her to Snape, who is a halfblood, comes from an abusive household, is impoverished, is not good looking, and is not personable.
Notice that James and friends torment the living hell out of Snape, but it's cool, they're progressive because James likes Lily.
And then there's also the challenge of it.
Lily keeps saying no.
Rather than get discouraged, this just encourages James, as it means he's not trying hard enough. James seems to be the guy who likes the chase, if he wasn't, then he would have given up years ago as you said.
Were They Ever Happy or Truly in Love?
I imagine there was a time when they were happy.
They did date shortly in Hogwarts and it must have gone well enough for the relationship to survive graduation. If it was unbearably awful they would have broken up with each other long before that point.
Now, do I think Lily knew the full extent of how much James and pals harassed Snape? No.
Do I imagine Lily had to put up with a lot of talk about how progressive James and Pals are because Sirius has an ACDC t-shirt? Yes.
Do I think Lily's life without Snape proved very bleak and she faced a bleaker future with prospects of unemployment and poverty? Yes.
Do I imagine that Lily got in the way of bro-time for James? Well, he probably made bro-time happen anyway, but she must have to some extent and I'm sure Sirius asked him, "Dude?! What happened to us?!"
But again, if they really were miserable together, they wouldn't have made it to graduation.
In love?
Well, it's hard to say, but I'm inclined to say no.
In Hogwarts they're too young, they don't know enough about each other. They might be riding high on puppy love, maybe, but that's not the same thing.
What we see outside of Hogwarts points to constant stress and hardship that would ruin even the most functional relationship. The small glimpses we do have into their marriage then (that James would run off while in hiding with the invisibility cloak, risking all of their lives, for no reason) is not good.
I imagine as the realities of being in hiding, of having a prophesied child, sunk in their relationship fell into complete disrepair.
If they were in love, I don't think love could survive that, at least, not with these two.
Why Did She Say Yes?
God, you people are going to kill me.
Well, first, Lily as a muggleborn has no prospects and after losing Snape she has no friends.
Lily's last few years of Hogwarts are desperately lonely, James seems to have toned it down and appears to be one of the few purebloods sympathetic to her, and he really seems to like her. He has never wavered in liking her once over many years.
He seems like he's changed.
Perhaps, she can give him a chance.
I imagine Lily at first tentatively agrees to go on a date, and he is charming and funny, so one date turns into two and then they're officially dating.
As for marriage.
... Yeah I just have to say it, shotgun wedding.
They get married and have a child very quickly, and granted, that seems to be the norm in the wizarding world but remember their circumstances.
Both Lily and James are active fighters in Dumbledore's illegal vigilante group, neither appears to have a career (James being old money doesn't have to but I imagine Lily tried (and failed) to find one).
Lily is muggleborn. I don't care how progressive James' parents are, as the heir of a very wealthy and established pureblood family I'm sure they looked at this red-headed muggleborn without a galleon to her name and just died of a heart attack.
True, James was their only child and the product of many difficult years conceiving, and he's from a more progressive family but...
I just see the Potters and many other of the 'lighter' pureblood families having more of the philosophy of "Muggleborns should absolutely go to Hogwarts, get an education, and have a place in society. But don't invite them over for dinner."
That James is allowed to marry Lily very quickly, with seemingly little fuss, with seemingly no obligation of turning down a previously arranged marriage (though the surviving Marauders could have left out such details when recapping things to Harry), and how quickly Harry is born in the times he's born in...
Shotgun wedding.
If the War Hadn't Happened Who Would James and Lily Ended Up With?
Well, I think the shotgun wedding would have happened regardless. But let's say that's not in the books and that there's not a war disrupting things either.
I imagine the relationship doesn't work out as they realize they have different interests and are too different of people. There's very little tying them together.
James likely marries whoever his parents arrange for him to marry. A daughter of a well-to-do established, pureblood line. Which of these women this would be is anyone's guess, but somebody. Probably not any of the Black sisters as they're already accounted for.
As for Lily, I imagine she remains single for a good while. Everyone she knows in her age range is from Hogwarts, this world is very small, and she's probably not going to end up with any of them for the issues you list.
Purebloods really don't get it. The closest are... Arthur Weasley. And when he and Sirius Black riding motorcycles are the closest your culture gets to respect, you're in for a rough dating scene.
If she does end up in a relationship it's with somebody outside of canon or non-obvious.
(And look at me not plugging my ship because I know it's ridiculous. Be proud of me readers.)

Okay it's been another period of time since I caused chaos and I love him parasocially so have my Remus Lupin headcanons
I spent way too long on these bad boys (the headcanons to be perfectly clear)
Tonks lives with Remus, Sirius, and Teddy, as well as her mom, who moved in after the death of Tonks' dad
Tonks takes on a bit of a "grown-up older sister" role for Teddy and helps take care of him a little when she's home which is rarely and Andromeda Tonks is a very supportive grandmother who considers Remus a son-in-law and Sirius a son
Kreacher lives at Hogwarts but sometimes visits only because of hard work by Hermione, Ron, Harry, and Remus, who over time got Kreacher and Sirius to talk again, with supervision, and Kreacher told him about Regulus. Sirius had been friends with Regulus when they were kids but thought Regulus hated him, especially after Sirius ran away from home and didn't take Regulus with him. The bond between Kreacher and Sirius started over their shared care for Regulus and different understandings of what Regulus did.
Sirius survived OotP because Harry wasn't able to leave Hogwarts until after Snape caught up to him and told him Sirius was safe. Aurors went to the Department of Mysteries instead of six high schoolers, just to be sure, and a few involved Death Eaters were locked up (including Lucius Malfoy) and the prophecies all got destroyed. As the aurors and ministry officials arrived, Voldemort had just gone in to grab the damned prophecy himself, so the ministry found out that he was back
Remus made sure Sirius stayed in hiding by putting him in a safe house with Andromeda, who he hadn't seen since she'd been disowned. Between Sirius and Tonks, Andromeda was done hearing about Lupin by May 4th, 1998, so she hid in her room, at which point a message arrived from Remus saying Harry Potter was in Hogwarts and the Death Eaters were attacking and to make sure Sirius stayed put but Sirius obviously didn't and he fought in the battle
Through the power of combined plot armor and the gay agenda, they both survived the battle
However, Fred Weasley still died. A few months after the battle, Tonks helped George Weasley dye his hair, which she knew how to do bc she used to do Bill's all the time in school. Molly was mad at first until he explained quietly, "I kept thinking it was him in the mirror." She never said a negative word about it again.
Remus's coming out as a trans man was about as fast as it being public he was a werewolf, except without his parents knowing. He showed up at school early his first year to sort out the Whomping Willow mess and tried to sleep in the girls dorm but found out it didn't let him up, then he proceeded to not tell anyone and just pretended to accidentally fall asleep studying every night. Eventually the Marauders figured it out and he admitted it to them. He started staying with them in the guy's dorm and Sirius pretended to be in a relationship with him so the gossip wasn't so much about Remus as it was about Sirius and them being in a relationship. It got back to McGonagall, who confronted Remus bc she thought he was regularly breaking rules to be with a guy. He came out to her and she offered to get him his own bed in the guy's dorms but he said he wasn't ready to be out to everyone yet and she said she understood. After Hogwarts, Remus left his family to live with Sirius, James, and Lily, as well as James' parents. When he got there, he introduced himself as Remus and sometimes people still wonder what happened to Sirius' ex-girlfriend who disappeared off the face of the earth after graduation, and who Sirius wasted no time replacing with an oddly familiar new partner, a boyfriend this time.
As soon as Remus started publicly going by Remus, Sirius promptly forgot his deadname. Remus thought he was trying to make him feel better or making fun of him but one day Sirius was filling out paperwork for him before he changed his legal name that Remus otherwise would not have known Sirius was doing and Sirius waited for him to come home and had him write it because he forgot it then didn't know how to spell it.
Bonus: Percy is a stay-at-home dad who loves his wife Penelope Weasley very much. His brothers still tease him. Since Fred's death, he decided that hearing anything from his brothers, even if it was teasing, was better than nothing.

This or That Part 5
Harry Potter AU Marauders ERA
Link to Part 4
Pairings: Regulus Black x Reader. Sirius Black x Reader 
Rating: T
______
2 months…
It had been two months since you had officially begun dating Regulus. As you expected, there was a lot of talking when word of your relationship officially got out. A few stupid boys from your own house decided to make teasing comments about you dating a Slytherin and ended up getting hexed by Regulus. No one was about to mess with Regulus and his reputation.
The only complaint was the lack of physical intimacy in your relationship. When Regulus said that he was taking things slow, he wasn’t kidding. You wondered if Regulus thought you were a slut because you had been hinting about the next level of your relationship for some time.
What if he thinks I’m a whore? Am I whore for wanting to be with him?
The thoughts plagued you almost non-stop! Regulus had been trying to prove to you that he could change but not everything was perfect.
“Christmas is coming up.”
Lily said casually one morning over breakfast. You looked up from the book that Regulus had put down in front of you. Lily’s comment didn’t seem to register with your boyfriend. You knew that Regulus still wasn’t 100% on Lily. He had finally stopped trying to call her a mudblood (after a lot of nasty arguments between the two of you) and was now calling her by her name.
“Yeah, it is. What are your plans?”
You asked. Lily took a sip of her juice giving you a wink. She was partially trying to help get information out of Regulus. You had been hoping that he would take up your offer of going home with you for the holiday. Your parents were over the moon happy with the fact that you finally got a boyfriend. Regulus, on the other hand, wasn’t so sure about the idea of meeting parents so fast was a good idea.
“I’m going home. Maybe we can all get together and do something before we come back to school. What are your plans, Y/n?”
Your eyes flickered to Regulus’ hopefully. His grey eyes didn’t move from the book.
“I’m going home too. James had mentioned that his parents were having a party.”
James nodded as he and Sirius sat down. You noted how Sirius and Regulus still acted as though the other didn’t exist. It didn’t matter how much you begged either boy to give the other brother a chance either.
“Yep, it's going to be lit...well as it can be with one’s parents hovering.”
“We can still have a good time. Y/n, are you coming?”
Sirius asked, with a smirk. If he could just get you alone without your little shadow maybe he could win you over? He still didn’t understand what you saw in Regulus. The two of you seemed like such an awkward couple. Regulus wouldn’t kiss you in public. He acted as if you holding his hand was going to kill him. All that Regulus seemed to be comfortable with was to pull you into a broom closet whenever the mood suited him. Sirius had quit looking at the map when you were on a date with Regulus. All that Sirius saw was your names in broom closets or on top of the astronomy tower for long periods of time.
Some romance.
Sirius thought bitterly as you turned in his direction.
“Remus and I will be there.”
That got Regulus’ attention. His eyes were on you. On your last date, you had mentioned the party but you only were thinking about going. Now that you were going and Sirius was going...Regulus was concerned. He didn’t like the fact that you were still friendly with Sirius. Regulus was jealous and he didn't know why. Maybe it was the worry that he would end up losing you to Sirius in the end.
Why wouldn’t she want Sirius? He isn’t uncomfortable with kissing her in public or touching her for that matter…
Regulus thought gloomily before sliding his hand on top of yours. You scooted closer to him practically begging him for any kind of physical affection that he would give. Regulus still wasn’t for sure how to tell you that he wasn’t completely comfortable with snogging you in front of other people. Should that be saved for private?
James had picked up on the mood between Regulus and Sirius right away.
“Regulus, I know that you don’t have much to say about anything but if you can get away from your crazy parents you can come with Y/n.”
“Thanks but I have plans.”
Regulus replied. You quickly turned to him.
“What plans? I thought that we were going to do something.”
Regulus didn’t turn in your direction.
“Something came up.”
“When were you going to tell me?”
You asked, ignoring your friends who were now focused on the brewing spat between the two of you.
“Later.”
Regulus replied, finally meeting your gaze. He knew that you were put out.
“I have to get going anyway. I need to see Professor Slughorn about an essay.”
You said as you gently let go of Regulus’ hand.
“I’ll come with you.”
He said, calmly.
As soon as the two of you were out of the great hall, Regulus stopped walking and tugged you into an empty classroom.
“What was that back there?”
“Nothing.”
You said. Regulus put his books down before tilting your face to his. Even though you were a tad annoyed with him, Regulus could still win you over with one little smile.
“I’m going to miss you too.”
Regulus leaned down and snuggled his face into your hair. He had to get in control of the situation...fast! Over the past few months, Regulus was trying to be less of a control freak and more spontaneous. This was proving to be difficult for him.
“We better go. We’ll be late.”
You said with a sigh. Why you were so moody was a mixture of things. You had been hoping to have someone on one time with Regulus that you couldn’t have at school. You were tired of hiding in a dark abandoned classroom to get any kind of physical contact with your boyfriend. Sure, these make-out sessions were heated and often left you panting but you wanted more. You loved the way Regulus’ hands were beginning to get braver with each day but he wasn’t being as brave as you wanted.
Maybe he was just trying to be a gentleman and not push you into something that you weren't ready for? You were trying to give him some credit there. Regulus would probably be a perfectionist when it came to your first time. There was also the knowledge of his own disastrous “first time” with his ex Ambrosia Parkinson that was making him take things slow with you?
Ambrosia was another delicate subject that Regulus didn’t discuss often. His ex was a bratty nightmare on two legs. In your mind, she used Regulus. She used him to say that she was dating a member of the Black family then discarded him when she didn’t get way on everything. Regulus, no matter who the woman was, was not going to be easily walked over. You thanked his “control freak” nature for that one.
Ambrosia hated you too. She and Evan Rosier were on the same page that Regulus was wasting his time on you. Whenever either Ambrosia or Evan saw the two of you together they would automatically try to pull Regulus away.
Your own dislike of Evan Rosier came flooding in. You were already thinking negative things of parts of Regulus’ life before you so why not let Evan join in. Regulus knew that you didn't’ like Evan but he wasn’t about to drop his best friend since childhood (and you didn’t expect him to) but he could tell Evan to shut his gigantic trap from time to time.
Regulus kissing your forehead pulled you from your thoughts.
“You look so unhappy.”
You shook your head.
“Can we just drop it and go to potions?”
Regulus sighed and held out his arm.
“Fine.”
As usual, once in Slughorn’s room, Regulus went off to join Evan and his other friends. Snape gave you a nod when the two of you locked gazes. He and, sometimes, Barty was okay. You could deal with Snape better because of his friendship with Lily. That was probably the only reason that he found you so acceptable when it came to Regulus.
“You look all hot and bothered.”
Lily said with a smile. She had come into help with that particular day’s lesson and plopped down beside you.
“I’m just annoyed. Regulus is confusing.”
Lily lightly laughed.
“What boy isn’t? What is he doing?”
You glanced over your shoulder and met Regulus’ gaze. It was as if he knew that you were talking about him.
“Lily, how long did it take for James and yourself to get past second base?”
Lily really laughed on that one.
“That depends if you are asking James or myself. I will say a fair amount of time. James would try to convince you it was years. Have you and Regulus…”
You shook your head.
“No, it isn’t for my lack of not wanting to. I keep telling him that I am ready but he stops when it gets too far. This may be childish but I am wondering if he still cares for...her.”
Lily knew automatically who you were talking about. She glared in Ambrosia’s direction. The girl was still looking at Regulus hopefully.
“I don’t think that you have anything to worry about. If Regulus didn’t care for you I don’t think that he would have stepped outside of his comfort zone the way that he has. Besides, you aren’t named after a fruit salad. What were her parents thinking?”
Lily was relieved when you smiled at that. She understood your moody feelings. You wanted to spend time with Regulus over the holiday break; she didn’t put it past you to have something special already planned. Lily’s heart hurt knowing that those special plans had been crushed by whatever better opportunity came up for Regulus.
“Thanks, Lily.”
You said with a smile as Slughorn stepped in to begin his lesson.
After the lesson was over Slughorn gave out his reminder for his “Slug club” members that his Christmas party was the next evening. Regulus has asked you to go with him right after the two of you began dating. This was one thing that you were at least thankful for. Even if Regulus hadn’t asked you, you would have gone. Slughorn was over the moon for you as a student. When he found out that you were dating Regulus, the old man seemed thrilled.
You stood up to go to the door and wait for Regulus. The moment that you turned in his direction, you wished that you hadn’t. Ambrosia had her arms around Regulus’ shoulders and was kissing him like the world was about to end. Your mouth fell open in shock as Regulus pushed her away furiously.
“What are you thinking?”
Regulus snapped before noticing Evan’s silent giggling.
“Turn around, mate.”
Evan said with a smile. He was enjoying the devastated expression on your face. He didn’t want you with Regulus to begin with. Evan hated the fact that his best friend was dating some filthy half-blood from Gryffindor.
Regulus immediately spun around and felt immediately guilty when he saw your face. There was nothing but hurt and sadness written all over you.
“Y/n…”
You shook your head and left the room without another word.
As you ran down the hall, you ran into something hard and fell backward. After smacking your head on the stone floor, you looked up as James popped out from underneath his invisibility cloak.
“Y/n, precious!”
He squealed delighted to see you but stopped the moment he realized that you were crying.
“Hurry, jump in here.”
The moment that you were under the cloak, you were squished between James and Sirius. Sniffing back some more tears, you took in your current situation.
“What are you two doing?”
Sirius grinned.
“Playing a prank on Snivelly. Hey, are you crying?”
“Forget it.
You said, softly. About that time Regulus came running around the corner. He looked as devastated as you felt.
“Y/n? Darling, where are you?”
Regulus looked around pathetically. He didn’t realize that you were standing just a bit from him.
“Reg, can you slow down?”
Evan and Barty rounded the corner breathing heavily. Barty almost looked like he could pass out.
“Did you find her?”
Regulus shook his head.
“It's like she disappeared. I have to find her.”
Evan shook his head.
“She’ll turn up when she wants to chat. Come on, let's go back to the common room. I have some things to go talk to you about our plans for the holiday.”
Regulus waited a moment before turning and following his friends back down the corridor and out of sight.
James and Sirius waited until the coast was clear before pulling the cloak off. Right as they did, Remus turned the corner and stopped at the sight of you pressed against Sirius and James behind you. Remus mentally compared the three of you looking like three gummy bears stuck together on a summer day.
“I normally don’t ask questions but what the hell is going on? Is Regulus and Lily okay with this? I’m not sure that I am…”
James, Sirius, and yourself immediately pulled apart. Sirius and yourself were scowling at Remus while James howled with laughter. This was the funniest damn thing that had happened to him all day.
“Hush, you. It wasn’t what it looked like.”
Sirius snapped as James got a grip on himself.
“Sirius and I were under the cloak about to pull a grand prank when Y/n came running around the corner and into us. She was….”
“Wait, why were you crying?”
“I don’t want to talk about it.”
You replied. Sirius rolled his eyes as things were starting to click.
“Well, I do. What did my brother do?”
You resisted the urge to return the awkward hug that Sirius was giving you.
“I’m not telling you because I don’t want you to do anything stupid about it!”
You quickly turned and left your two confused best friends and older brother scratching their heads. It wasn’t until Lily walked up did they turn away.
“I can tell you what happened.”

Drunk Confessions
Tumblr media
This is an entry from my eldest for my writing Bingo.
Drunk Confession - Vincent (OC) and Peter / Line without a hook
It was their final year at Hogwarts and with it being their final year then obviously the boys would go full on out for a Halloween party. There hadn't been a lot of them, no, but there was music, food, great costumes and a little drinking. The group to meet up at the Shrieking Shack on this Hallows Eve happened to be the marauders - consisting of James Potter, Sirius Black, Peter Pettigrew and Remus Lupin- followed by one Lily Evans and a Vincent Daae. The moon was bright in the sky yet not full, to the relief of Remus, as they began to meet up at about seven in the evening. The first to be there, early of course, were Sirius and Remus who'd been decorating the place to give it more of a spooky atmosphere. Not that it needed to be changed much for that effect. The next two had been James and Peter, the smaller male being the records they'd kept in their dorm room as requested whilst the boy with glasses had managed to sneak a couple bottles of firewisky over to let everyone get a little looser that night. Finally though, coming a few minutes later than planned due to some finishing touches on their costumes, where the Gryffindor girl and Slytherin boy.
Each person's costume seemed to match with another's, two pairs purposely whilst the final one being a coincidence. First happened to be Lily and James who finally managed to hook up that year. Hook up being she'd gone on a few dates with him but their relationship had not been official yet. The two had agreed before that they would go as the famous couple from grease, Sandy and Danny, with Lily going for more of the character's early movie style rather than her outfit at the end. James, however, had 'borrowed' one of Sirius' leather jackets to use for the costume and had actually bothered to comb his hair back to make it less of the casual mess it usually was. The second duo happened to be Sirius and Remus as Han and Leia. The original suggestion from Sirius had been for Han and Chewy but Remus refused, resulting in Sirius handing over his costume idea to the boy whilst he borrowed a white dress from Marlene. His hair, he was impressed with, having managed to put it up similarly but not exact to how it had been. When Remus first saw him in the costume, he'd tried not to laugh, but in all honesty he'd admitted it did look good in him.
The final pairing happened to be Peter and Vincent who'd accidentally ended up as Morticia and Gomez Addams. Vincent's dress hadn't been taken from anyone without their permission unlike with the clothes Sirius and James had, but rather sent over to him by his mother from his cousin when hearing about his plan. He felt relieved it had been the long black sleeved dress instead of the other one. Peter had been given the suggestion for the outfit off Remus when he confessed that he'd just show up dressed in his normal clothes. Come to the awkward moment when the third wheels of the two relationships see each other, not knowing whether the others had somehow planned things out to go this way or if it had merely been a coincidence.
Moving on into the evening now, Queen had been playing as the drinking had more than begun. Sirius and James had been some of the most heavy drinkers that evening, only beaten out by Vincent to most of their surprise. To people like Sirius and James he'd seemed like one of those more quiet and responsible kids who'd be prefect or head boy, but to Lily this hadn't been a shock since she'd known the guy better than the rest of the boy's. The one's to drink the least were then Remus and Lily, with Peter holding the record for least intoxicated after having a shot offered to him by James and not liking the taste, thus refusing to continue with the drinking.
As it grew even later it appeared as if James and Lily had already begun to head back to the castle to call it a night whilst Remus and Sirius stayed close to each other, having a slow dance to a few more songs. Peter found his leaning against the wall and watching the two, smiling a bit at how well they went together but also finding his eyes occasionally wandering to the only non-Gryffindor to have shown up. He'd wanted to talk to him all evening yet hadn't found the chance to due to the music being blast, James interrupting him on many occasions and the small fact that over the past week he'd been getting the silent treatment from the boy. He'd not even been sure why the Slytherin had avoided him, feeling as if it might have not been his fault but more of James and Sirius' reputation with pranks, especially more harsher ones towards the other boy's house. Hell, James had previously planned a prank to do on the boy that evening but stayed off it when he'd started hitting things off with Lily better than ever. With one of his small looks over to Vincent, however, he'd noticed he'd started to move out of the room with one of the bottles that neither of them had managed to finish. The smaller boy couldn't help but follow, curious and still hoping he could finally talk with him.
When looking around the old and abandoned house, He found the other boy sitting on the windowsill of one of the upstairs rooms, the bottle being a bit more empty as it stood on the windowsill too. When hearing the creak of the floorboards in the doorway, Vincent had looked over to find Peter standing there and stayed silent for a moment as he just stared at him. "Hey Vince… Um… I wanted to talk…" The Gryffindor was the first to speak between the two as he moved into the room a bit more, scratching the back of his head.
Vincent ended up moving from the sill as he left the bottle on the side, still keeping his eyes on Peter as he listened to the silence break. His next few words seemed to come out of nowhere as the taller of the two traced the others face with a finger before lifting his chin up to look at his face. "I don't really give a damn about the way you touch me when we're alone…" The words actually sounded as if they were meant but it had just appeared from nothing as the blonde had lost whatever words he was going to use on the other boy. He'd not expect to hear this, especially after a week of hearing nothing. Moving his hand from his chin however, Vincent began to take Peter's hand and grip it just a bit. It wasn't too tight, more soft but still with the intent of not wanting to let go. "You can hold my hand if no one's home…"
The Slytherin looked from the other's face down towards their hands as he hesitated for a moment before letting out a brief question "Do you like it when I'm away?" Peter assumed that this was in regards to their lack of conversation and tried to get his words out, being a hard no in reply as he'd found the other's presents to be quite pleasant, not that he'd tell the others that. However he'd still been somewhat flustered with the previous statements and actions towards him making his reaction appare a bit more delayed. This resulted in another question shot towards him as Vincent let go of his hand and put a bit of space between the two of them as he quietly mumbled "If I went and hurt my body, baby, would you love me the same?"
This was even more jarring then the first few statements, making a blush finally form onto the Gryffindors face as he began to feel his own hand, finding it hard to believe the situation he'd now found himself in. He felt concerned about how the other was acting at this moment, wondering how he could help before then hearing "I can feel all my bones coming back and… I'm… craving motion…" With this, Pete looked from his own hands to the face of the taller boy which now also hosted a Crimson shade rather than the usual pale completion that's found on the boy's face, a lip bite also in process.
The blonde wanted to get to the bottom of whatever this appeared to be and knew he'd actually needed to start asking questions instead of submitting to the raven haired boy. "Is everything okay at home?" Happened to be the first thing he could think of digging into since he'd known his homelife to be a little… Complicated. His father had abandoned them when he'd been younger and he'd had to live with just him and his mother, somewhat relatable to the Gryffindor, with the only difference really being that for Vincent he had his older cousin who happened to be a squib that would visit often to help out. He'd doubt there would be problems now he thought of it more but he needed to just check in case of anything that might be an issue. "Momma never really learned how to live by herself…" was given as a quiet reply with a nervous chuckle and a slight shrug proceeding that. It had been followed by a somewhat mouthed 'not like it matters' meaning he'd definitely been trying to move down the wrong rabbit hole at this moment.
He got more of an answer though when following this was "It's a curse… And it's growing…" Ah, so this was more of a magical problem. He'd been hex or something then? Peter felt this might have James' written all over it before then getting the slightly muffled of "You're a pond and I'm an Ocean…" which brought a bit of confusion to him. When thinking about it a bit more, the curse bit could have been more metaphorical then literally, but that still didn't really give the blonde much of a hint to the issue with the raven haired boy.
"All my emotions… Feel like… explosion," Vincent could notice the Gryffindor struggling to understand him and he continued to try getting his feelings across as best as he could. He usually had a way with words but being as intoxicated as he was, it was hard to think of what to say. The first things that came to his mind appeared to be what he was saying. "When you are around… And… I've found a way to kill the sound?"
Peter watched the taller male stumble over his words as he tried to put things together, coming to sort of a conclusion which kept him heating up at the thought he might actually be right with it. He couldn't actually be saying he liked him in that way though… Right. He'd just refused to talk to him for a whole week after all so why would he? In an attempt to convince himself otherwise, Pete began to make excuses to the Slytherin. "Vincent, you're a bit drunk… More than a bit. I don't think you know what you're saying," was the first excuse he gave to which he got a head shake back, not to the drunk part but the not knowing what he was saying.
"Then maybe… Of course, Padfoot or Prongs must have laced your drink with Amortentia!" appeared to be the next one he gave to get a verbal response of "I said no…" from Vince.
"Well you wouldn't realise if you drank it beca---"
"I said no…"
Before Pete could even get another word out about this theory, Vincent put a finger over his lips and sighed as he looked the other boy in the eyes. "Listen close… It's a no…" The raven haired hair mumbled once again before making sure the Gryffindor wasn't going to say another word about it to which he moved his finger, thinking once again on how to explain. He should have probably moved away from the poeting replies he was trying but the boy occasionally had a flare for the dramatic. "The wind is a pounding on my back, and I've found hope in a heart attack…"
With this, the mood of his words appeared to shift as if in a small moment he'd realised something. He'd realised something about how even I'd he got his message across then there wouldn't even be a point due to the other's disbelief. It was at this time there was a scruple in the boy's confession as he looked away from the Gryffindor. "Oh, at last… It has passed…" He shook his head just slightly, moving towards the windowsill once again with a pause when he reached it, turning back for a moment as he didn't look at Peter then he clutched one of his hands over where his heart was. "No I've got it… And you can't have it…"
Of course Pete would notice the change in his story and realised that he wouldn't really learn the source of the problem proceeding like he was. He couldn't just deny this guy, or rather he could but he didn't want to. There was a mixture of him for different reasons he didn't want to and so, to hopefully get back to the track and confession he was looking for, the gryffindor asked another question. "Why now…? Of all times to tell me this, why is it now?" It was one of the main things he wanted to know anyway, curious to why after a week of silence this would come out. Curious to why the week of silence still too.
"Darling…" When the word came out, Vincent hesitated for a moment on whether or not he'd should have used it before deciding he couldn't go back. It had escaped already so there was no point in holding back. "When I'm fast asleep, I see this person watching me… Saying…" The words grew slowly as he began to turn away again, his glacé heading towards one of his arms as he rubbed it a bit. "Is it worth it?" This came out as a mumble before the slytherin repeated more louder "Is it worth it?"
The blonde continued to listen to the Raven haired boy as he thought of what 'it' could be in regards to. He'd moved closer as he began to stand next to the other male. When Vince had noticed he took a breath in, looked over to the Gryffindor and asked once more "Tell me, is it worth it?" As the words came out, Peter caught himself getting lost in the other's newly damp yet lilac ocean of eyes. He'd not been lying before, they were with his own appearing like ponds compared to the deepness of what he'd stared into. It felt like the words that had been going into his ears had been an incantation to draw him closer and trap him yet this moment soon ended as quickly as it came about when the Slytherin turned away once more, hugging himself in silence for a moment.
"Are you okay?" Yes, it did seem a bit of a stupid question to ask in this moment when it was obvious the other boy was getting emotional in this moment but Peter knew that Vincent needed to hear these words. He needed to hear that the Gryffindor cared about him and how he was feeling, and with hearing this the other boy began to explain more clearly, touching slightly on the reason for that week's silence. "cause… There is something and there is nothing… there is nothing in between," in being more clear, it didn't mean he was going to stop in trying to be poetic however. "And in my eyes there is a tiny dancer, watching over me… He's singing…"
These next lines made Peter realise where'd he'd gone wrong and this brought him a sense of guilt. He felt guilty about the fact he'd not realised how obvious it had been, of course it was. The other week he was short on money before the group was going to head to Hogsmead and as a dare off James so he could get some extra money, he was told to tell Marlene that he smelt her in his Amortentia. And thus, he did, which ended in a small rumor, an awkward kiss off Marlene that neither of them wanted and him getting paid more than he was offered from a hysterical James. Of course he'd realised this was the problem upon the words "He, he wants a lady and I am just a boy…"
He didn't even like girls, he was just desperate and hadn't thought about it at the time. Yet, now, here he was with a guy who'd been crushing on him for who knows how long now thinking he had no chance from assuming the blonde was straight. His early assumption about this involving James and Amortentia hadn't been too far off, then. Just how they were involved was slightly different. To hurt even more however, the drunken slytherin had to go ahead and repeat the line again with more emotion and emphasis. "He's singing, He, he wants a lady! And I'm just…" In this moment, Peter placed a hand on Vincent's shoulder in an attempt to calm him down, seemingly working in his favour. "a line… Without… a…"
Silence came between the two, the raven haired male not being able to bring himself to finish before letting tears roll down his face as he reluctantly brought his face to looking at Peter's again. The words to escape him after held a lot of weight as he struggled to get them out through tears. "Oh baby I am a wreck… I need you here to stay…" were the first as he began to take both of the blonde's hands, gripping them tight unlike the first time. "I broke all my bones that day…"
"I found you," Peter began to confess back as he wasn't wrong. The day the silence between them began he had seen Vincent alone yet hadn't approached. He didn't think it was his place two when he was "Crying by the lake…"
Even though now he knew, and definitely KNEW, what the problem had been but needed to have that confirmation just to put the nail in the coffin. "Was it something I said to make you feel like you're a burden?" came out in a soft voice as Pete raised an eyebrow, getting nothing but a pained look from the Slytherin. This had to be a yes to which he followed with a quiet 'oh' before "and if I could take it all back I swear that I…"
The words faded out a bit when the blonde noticed himself getting caught up in the other's eyes again, not even noticing how close they'd gotten at this moment. The raven haired boy, however, did notice the closeness and was determined to close it. "Would pull… You… From…" the shorter had continued but hadn't managed to finish as just before he could let the last words out the other boy had locked lips with him. Even if it didn't last too long, it felt like an eternity. It was just the two of them alone dressed all fancy in an abandoned house now shearing a chaste kiss.
When it had finished, there appeared to be silence as both of them kept their eyes closed and bodies close, both not really believing what had just gone on. Not just the kiss but the entire thing! Nevertheless, Peter never got to finish his sentence to which, after wrapping his arms around the Gryffindor, Vincent leaned into his ear to wispeare two final words to end it for him. "The tide…"
