“cigarette” - Jegulus microfic - @into-the-jeggyverse - 262 words
Regulus is smoking on the balcony when James comes to stand beside him at the railing. Regulus slides his pack of cigarettes over to James who takes one and lights it before sliding the pack back to Regulus.
“Thank you.” James says.
Regulus hums in response. James takes a long inhale but instead of exhaling like a normal person, James tilts his head back and blows out small breaths making the smoke come out in several little puffs.
“You’re an idiot.” Regulus scoffs.
“Thank you.” James says again.
“That wasn’t a compliment.” Regulus tells him.
“Anything from you is a compliment. And I’ll always thank you for it.” James leans in to bump Regulus’ shoulder.
“You’re ridiculous.” Regulus pushes him away.
“Thank you.” James grins at him.
Regulus turns to scowl at James and James’ grin only gets bigger. They enter a weird sort of staring contest that Regulus knows he won’t be able to maintain before he does something stupid like push James off the balcony or kiss him senseless. He’s not sure which he’d prefer at the moment so instead he just rolls his eyes and turns back to the railing.
“You’re insufferable.” He mumbles.
“Thank you.” James smirks.
Regulus looks back at James and narrows his eyes curiously. He tilts his head to the side and thinks for a moment.
“You have beautiful eyes.” Regulus tells him.
“Tha… wait what?!” James sputters then just stares at Regulus dumbfounded.
Regulus smirks victoriously, puts out his cigarette and turns to go inside.
“Bye James.” He says cheekily over his shoulder as James stands frozen at the railing.

Interruption┃remus lupin
summary: where remus and his girlfriend try to have a romantic moment but sirius and james interrupt them
marauders!era
It was a quiet Saturday afternoon in Gryffindor Tower, and most of the students had taken the opportunity to take a nap or catch up on homework. But Remus and his girlfriend, Y/n, had other plans. They had managed to sneak off to the boy's dormitory for some much-needed alone time.
As they lay in bed, cuddling, the room filled with a romantic tension that had been building for weeks. Just as things were heating up,the door to the dormitory burst open.
“moony have you seen my—” Sirius' voice echoed through the room, followed closely by James.
Y/n let out a shrill scream as she scrambled to cover herself with the nearest blanket. Remus, his face a bright shade of red, did his best to shield them both with the blanket, as he stared at his best friends with wide eyes.
Sirius froze in his tracks, his mouth hanging open in pure horror. “OH MY EYES! MY INNOCENT EYES!” he wailed, dramatically throwing an arm over his face. “I’M TRAUMATIZED FOR LIFE! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING”
James, meanwhile, covered his eyes with his hands and stumbled back towards the door. “I DIDN’T SEE ANYTHING! I SWEAR!” he screamed with his eyes closed.
“SIRIUS, GET OUT!” Remus shouted, his voice with embarrassment and fury. He tugged the blanket tighter around himself and Y/n, trying to shield as much of her as possible from his idiot friends.
“GET OUT? I’M BLIND, MOONY! I CAN’T SEE THE DAMN DOOR!” Sirius wailed, clutching at his face. “PRONGS, HELP ME!”
James, who was still trying to get out of the room without looking, collided with a chair and crashed to the floor. “I CAN’T SEE EITHER!” he screamed in panic. “THIS IS A MESS!”
Y/n, who had already partially recovered from the initial shock, couldn't help but laugh at the absurdity of the situation. "Sirius, turn around and go!" she shouted, still in Remus' arms.
“DON’T LAUGH, Y/N! THIS IS A SERIOUS TRAUMA!” Sirius retorted, finally turning around and stumbling toward the door, still with his arm over his eyes.
James, still trying to find the door, tripped over with sirius' clothes on the floor. “PADS, WAIT FOR ME!”
Remus sighed deeply. “Padfoot, Prongs, I swear if you don’t go in the next ten seconds…”
But before he could finish his sentence, Sirius managed to find the doorknob and threw it open, dramatically waving his other arm as he stormed out. James quickly followed, eyes still closed, and slammed into the door frame before staggering out after Sirius.
When the door finally closed, Remus and Y/n stood in stunned silence. Then, unable to contain themselves any longer, they both burst into uncontrollable laughter as Y/n grabbed her wand to lock the door.
“Well,” Remus said between laughs, “that definitely wasn’t what I expected.”
“So....., where were we?”
Remus leaned down and captured Y/n's lips in a passionate kiss. The blanket that had once been a shield was now forgotten. And they returned to their original plan.
This time, with no interruptions.

Cannibal Regulus owns a butcher shop with his friends and Vampire James who is a regular because it's the only place where the meat actually fulfills his appetite and taste. This is cuz the meat is actually human (the pantheon was feeling silly).
So cue James going to the butcher shop on a regular with a giant grin and Regulus with his short curly hair up and being all blushy and wide-eyed while cleaning a butcher knife covered in blood, wearing a cute, though dirty, and stained apron.
One time, James catches Regulus as he's cleaning up and offers to take him home. While they have been crushing on each other for some time now, Regulus doesn't hesitate to invite James inside and try to jam a machete into the back of his head. Doesn't work, instead, they both end up falling more in love (somehow) and the next day Regulus takes his day off from the shop to go on a date with James. Having a picnic in the woods and poking each other with needles and seeing who bleeds first. And making out too ig

Sirius: You may be mother and father's favourite child but I'm Remus and James's favourite person.
Regulus, smirking: Is that so?
Remus: You know I might switch brothers.
Sirius, shocked and horrified: Moony, how could you?! At least I have James that will never betray me!
James, sweating nervously: I plead the fith?
Sirius: At least I'm for sure Peter's favourite person.
Peter, always down to help create chaos: Well your brother is better looking.
Sirius: You're all traitors. So mean, all of you.
Regulus: You know, Remus, if you ever did want to see what it's like to date the better looking brother...
Sirius: *throws a pillow at Regulus's head*
James, definitely not jealous: Now, wait a second!
