#Regulus Arcturus Black is a simp

[mochafrappiccinolatte]

This is a Jegulus birthday one-shot dedicated to the lovely, sweet, kind, talented, and most perfect @kat-m-toast. Happy birthday 🖤

TW: implied explicit content

Four things are true:

James Potter loves birthdays.

James Potter has never had a surprise party because he is so excited for his birthday every year that he always helps his friends plan him an elaborate party.

Regulus Black hates birthdays and elaborate parties.

Regulus Black loves James Potter.

It’s the fourth one that is the current cause of Regulus’ migraine. Presently, Regulus is sitting in the dark, crouched down in the Gryffindor Common Room on a Saturday night surrounded by rowdy lions, who he just cannot get to shut the fuck up.

“Do they truly have no sense of decorum? They are going to ruin the surprise,” Regulus thinks with an irritated huff.

You see, James’ birthday fell on a Wednesday this year. Which was a problem because he had quidditch practice at 5:30 am (the maniac) and what is there to do on a Wednesday? The Marauders, as usual, caused a giant commotion over breakfast, how they made every fork and spoon say happy birthday prongsie when touched Regulus will never know. They then partook in riotous revelry throughout the day, so you know, the same as any other Wednesday.

Regulus, the HBIC (head boyfriend in charge) planned a candlelight picnic on the astronomy tower. It was sentimental, cute, quaint even, their relationship did start on that very tower, after all. But, Regulus knows his boyfriend and his love of grand gestures, birthdays, and, sadly, elaborate parties.

This brings us back to number four, Regulus Black fucking loves James Potter. This means Regulus knows that, although James was grateful for their candlelit birthday picnic, he was also disappointed that his Wednesday birthday meant he couldn’t have a party.

Or, so he thought. Regulus isn’t the HBIC for nothing. So, he’s spent months meeting in secret with the Gryffindors (vomit), sourcing firewhiskey (surprisingly easy), writing Effie to get her to send James’ favorite cake so he can blow out candles (this muggle custom confuses and disgusts Regulus, but James loves it and it’s not like Regulus is a stranger to James’ spit), convincing Peter to “accidentally” lose the map (yes, Regulus knows about the map, no, they aren’t that discrete), convincing Remus to steal the invisibility cloak (yes, Regulus knows about the invisibility cloak, no they aren’t that discrete, like at all) and then sneaking everything up to the Gryffindor Common Room while Sirius distracts James (again, surprisingly easy).

But everything, every argument with his brother, every secret meeting with the lions, thank Salazar for Lily Evans, every trek through dirty passageways that Regulus sacrificed more than one pair of shoes to, hell, even the four nights of Regulus sleeping in the Slytherin Common Room that he traded with Barty in order to get the expensive firewhiskey (apparently there’s this thing Barty wants to try against the window and the floor that required him and Evan have complete privacy) was all worth it when he saw the look on his boyfriend’s face when the confetti flew into the air and everyone jumped up and yelled surprise.

Regulus has never seen James cry, embodiment of sunshine and all that, but even from where Regulus now stands by the stairs he can see the tears shining in James’ eyes.

When James finally spots Regulus, that’s when the tears fall.

“This was all you, wasn’t it, love?” James asks as he gets closer to Regulus, slipping an arm around his waist.

“Happy birthday, Jamie. I hope your surprise party was worth the wait.” Regulus replies, his lips against James’ cheek.

So yes, Regulus Black loves James Potter, and, if the show of gratitude he got in the Room of Requirement that night is anything to go off of, Regulus Black may be persuaded to like elaborate parties as well.

James had tried. Really, he had.

He'd tried to keep quiet about it, when Regulus had finally agreed to date him.

It wasn't that Regulus had told him to be quiet. Their close friends knew. But he also knew that Regulus didn't like to be the center of attention- to have eyes or rumors focused on him.

So, he'd tried to be quiet.

But the day that Regulus had played against Ravenclaw and pulled off a 300-foot dive to catch the Snitch while only holding onto his broom with his knees, all in the snow?

He'd been so damn proud. So excited. So thrilled. So he'd just...said it.

"Fuck yes, that's my boyfriend!" he'd exclaimed, throwing his hands in the air, grinning from ear to ear.

Only after that had he remembered he was currently guest commentating on the game, and his voice had been magically changed to echo through the stadium.

Horrified, he sought out Regulus, who had lifted in the air again, dreading a negative reaction.

But Regulus was grinning, pink-faced and windswept, right at him.

WHAT IF sirius was sorted into slytherin as he was supposed to be?? black brothers being the casanovas of slytherin while remus and james being the casanovas of gryffindor?? enemies to lovers wolfstar/jegulus?? first they hate each other but then evan and james slowly becoming friends so they get the chance to know each other without trying?? idk about you but i need this immediately.

Regulus: No, don't start with the family stuff. Like your family's so perfect. Your brother's a pervert!

James: Don't talk to me about the sexual habits of family members.

James: What about your brother?

Regulus: My brother's been through a lot.

James: ...

James: Of dick.

Sirius: ....

[ddanthedumbass]

Regulus: forgive my bluntness, but I don't believe you know exactly who your dealing with

James: your a criminal.

Regulus: an intelligent one

James:

James: and a hot one

[adharastarlight]

Reg, scowling at James over his textbook because he's been staring at him for almost an hour and it's honestly very distracting and he's struggling to not blush: what do you want Potter?

James: a chance

Reg raises an eyebrow but doesn't reply

James: a chance to get to know you properly

Reg: you won't like what you find

James: maybe, or maybe I'll love what i find. Give me a chance. Just one chance, Regulus, please?

Reg: ...just one.

[gayastrophilehistoryfreak]

jegulus confession but they were enemies?

yes.

Regulus: If I'm worth no one's time, why are you still here?

James: Because-

Regulus: Because you want answers? Is that it? I told you everything you need to know.

James: You're a liar, so why should I believe anything you spit out?

Regulus: Then just go and fucking leave me alone, dumbass.

James: I can't leave.

James: You're stuck in my head and I can't do anything else about it.

Regulus: ...

Regulus: You're an even bigger idiot then.

Now that Regulus was aware of the effect he had on James, it was as if he went out of his way to make James drool and stare at him at every passing turn. Regulus had always looked divine, yes, but now? He looked god-like. 

It was in the way that he would secretly look at Regulus across this dining hall and lick his lips to make James hesitate when eating his food. The way they would brush past each other on their way to class and Regulus would be sure to walk close but not close enough to James so he could smell Regulus’ cologne, but not reach out and ‘accidentally’ touch his hand.

It was in the way that he combed back his hair every morning, to make those perfect black waves of his do exactly what they needed to do so it looked absolutely stunning throughout the whole day. 

Except at the end of each day, where the two of them would run away to the astronomy tower, or to the lake, and James was allowed to run his hands through his lover's hair. He loved the way the strands felt as he was carding his fingers through it. Now that Regulus was holding onto James, James wasn’t ever going to let go.

AHHH what is it with me and simping for all the marauders cosplayers on tik tok

Sirius: "Sorry for my little brother being so mean to you"

James totally hearted eyes: "Oh no it's fine"

Sirius totally oblivious: "No, it's definitely not! He can't be that mean to my best friend! I will talk to him!"

Remus: "James? Are you okay?"

James: "I think I need him to be mean to me more often..."

Peter: "wtf"

Real love is Regulus Black getting upset when James' glasses are gone and a perfect match is James Potter folding at seeing Reggie's hands.

James has a problem.

His problem?

Regulus Black is at the Halloween Party he is attending.

Not a problem, you say?

Sure.

Except Regulus is dressed like....well, James isn't sure exactly what he's supposed to be, but James knows that in reality he's dressed like a goddamn wet dream.

Ripped jeans and fishnets. A crop top and tattoos on pale skin. Tousled hair and piercing gray eyes, eyeliner smudged underneath.

So completely different from his normal attire.

James is entranced.

"That's my brother, Prongs. Keep your thoughts decent," Sirius whispers into his ear.

Too fucking late.

James: “Are we soulmates in every timeline?”

Regulus:

[chrhnchynoodles]

I think they need to cast Reiky De Valk in the new Dune movie and put him in the same getup Timothée had in the first movie so I can make millions upon millions of crimson rivers edits because that’s something I just need in my life frankly

Not even Reiky just someone who looks like James like yes he’s ideal but I can make due with another James lookin dude but I NEED IT okay I NEED IT I didn’t know how much I needed it until I thought of it just now but I’m going to be in shambles if there isn’t a James in that movie like Fleamont was in the first one as Reggie’s dad which was mad weird execpt ig it wasn’t bc they’re literally actors and not the people in my delusions but what the fuck ever man I need James to be in that movie or I’m gonna lose it

[myheadisemptyffonly]

Jegulus completely drunk at a party:

Regulus: What's your type?

James: I have a boyfriend.

Regulus: So what's your type then?

James: My boyfriend.

Regulus: And what does he looks like?

James: He looks like my boyfriend.

Regulus: So what would you rate me out of ten?

James: Um, i can't do that.

Regulus: Can't rate me at all?

James: Can't rate you at all.

Regulus: What would you rate your boyfriend out of ten?

James: He broke my scale, cause he's so beautiful.
