James Potter being the sun discussion

James is always described as the sun, because of his warmth, his love, his happiness, his caring demeanour, his light that he gives other people.

But the sun is this huge ball of heat that nothing can touch. No one can look directly at it without their eyes hurting (unless they have a form of protection). It's so painful to look at, but so beautiful to admire. The planets and asteroids in our solar system revolve around it- it is our centre.

The sun is alone but still admired by many. It is harmful to really see properly, but looked at through a cover. Through something that blocks it's true self from being seen. So much is focused around it, depending on it, but it depends on nothing. It gives but doesn't take. It is so powerful but reduced to just 'it is pretty'.

The sun is a misunderstood figure. It's loneliness in the face of popularity. It's dependable but never dependent. It's beauty and the feeling it gives them is all it is deemed. It's standing in front of a crowd but no one actually sees you.

Before I started writing this, I thought to myself "how can James be the sun? He's warm and caring but the sun isn't just that. The sun's painful, lonely, powerful, and unseen whilst being seen. How is that James?" I expected to find at the end of writing my thoughts in this post, to discover how unlike the sun James really was. But, I was wrong and everything I described the sun as is James.

James Potter is the sun. And it must be the loneliest thing to be.

Filtered Sunlight

Angsty jegulus super short micro-fic? Micro-thoughts? There's not really a story just bad metaphors about light and colors. wc: 322

Regulus was familiar with the sun. It was comforting to know that he was deemed lucky enough to feel the warm touches of it on his skin. To wake up to it in the morning smiling back at him. To say goodnight, certain it will be back to shine the next day. He sat beside it and took what he could get, choosing to bask for as long as he could.

In a perfect world, a prism would exist in him. Regulus would take the sunlight James gifted him gently in his hands and create beautiful rainbows between them. The light would bend with him, follow him to the ends of the earth. It would be twisted and changed in ways that create something even more beautiful and rare. He would take what was offered and shine beauty into the world with it. 

That wasn’t Regulus though, Regulus was a filter. He would take the light and absorb all the best parts of it for himself, only allowing the blue darkness to pass through. The intensity would be dulled with him. The colors he made from the distortion might be pretty for a time but they would never be as pure as the sun. He could never hold the possibilities the sun held. He would take and take and take, allow the sun to selfishly shine through him until he began to blister and crack under the heat. Until eventually he will be destroyed and the sun will shine right through him, leaving no color behind.

And that was the thing about the sun. He can’t be turned off. He will continue to burn even if he leaves destruction in his path. He never wants to hurt anything but the sun will keep giving with its whole being, oblivious to what will be burnt. James will keep sending his waves of light and Regulus will be taken by the current every time.

Creep hitting on Regulus @ the bar:

GUY: What’s your body count, beautiful?

REG: That depends.

GUY: On what?

REG: Wether you’re asking how many guys I’ve “taken home” or how many I’ve taken out ☠️

REG (whispers): Both are higher than you’d think.

JAMES: …I want him in a way that’s concerning to my life expectancy.

Provide - Jegulus - @stag-microfic - Day 6 - 269 words

Regulus doesn’t expect to see a stag standing in the astronomy tower when he went to do his astronomy homework, but he’s not surprised. He just raises a brow as his lips twitch up into a smile. “Hey, Jamie.”

The stag grunts and gently nudges him with his antlers. Regulus laughs softly and just begins to get his work out. The stag, however is persistent, with jabs and bleats every few moments.

“James,” Regulus frowns, grabbing his inkwell before it can tip over. “You’re going to ruin my work.”

The stag transforms back into James, who sits down beside his boyfriend with a frown. “How’d you know it was me? Don’t you want me to provide an explanation?”

A smirk falls on Regulus’ lips. “You and your friends aren’t as secretive as you think. I saw you lot transform while I was collecting potion ingredients in the Forbidden Forest—including Remus, and he’s told me about his… situation. I know you lot are stupidly noble enough to become animagi for him. Besides, you kept asking me questions about animagi last year. Oh, and your friends call you ‘Prongs.’ So, yeah.” He shrugs, finally looking away from the parchment in front of him and over at James, who’s gaping. This eleicits a chuckle from Regulus.

After a few seconds, James seems to regain consciousness. “I should’ve known you’d figure it out. You’re bloody brilliant.”

“Thank you.” Regulus preens under the compliment. “Now, I’ve got to do my astronomy homework, so stop being distracting.”

James brows furrow. “I’m not even doing anything?”

“Exactly.” Regulus nods, looking back at his homework.

James smirks.

Regulus: Isn’t it weird that we can’t ride any other animal except horses. Like if horses weren’t a thing, humans would be fucked cause we couldn’t ride any other animals. Like riding animals wouldn’t really be a thing. We should probably be more grateful to horses.

Barty: Elephants.

Regulus: Blocked.

Dorcas: Camels.

Regulus: Extra blocked.

Pandora: Donkeys.

Regulus: Ultra blocked.

Evan: James' dick.

Regulus: …Followed.
