Also me to him: Evil.

Marauders as mitski songs

Hi! another one? yeah, but this time we’re here with my love regulus because i kin him and, honestly, i always want to talk about him

i’m a little wary about this one

once again i must remind y’all that this is my own interpretation. especially since i kin this boy and that affects the way i think of him (am i projecting? probably) but at the same time i must say i don’t want to romantice the death eaters nor justify bigotry. i could make an entire post of my personal interpretation of regulus

not gonna lie, at first i thought about giving regulus “goodbye my danish sweetheart” with the focus being, of course, his and sirius’ relationship. and it may be because i’m an only child, but i don’t really like how sometimes we reduce regulus’ character to sirius’ little brother, because he can be such an interesting character

anyways, i finally chose for him everyone, from lauren hell, a song which mitski defined as minimalistic - she actually made it when she didn’t had any instruments around!

let’s go with regulus “everyone” black

(did i lose the chance to do regulus “everyone” black // sirius “nobody” black parallel? yes, i will never recover)

___________________________________________________

Everyone, all of them

Everyone said, "Don't go that way"

So, of course, to that I said

"I think I'll go that way"

the song begins with this rebellion, the protagonists is going against everything their surroundings are telling them. there’s a certain cockiness to this decision, “so, of course, to that I said” is telling us the protagonist usually does whatever they want.

this may no sound like regulus at first, i know, but it’s because there’s been this weird babygirlfication of reggie, and i think y’all are forgetting this boy wanted to join the death eaters. i’m not the one to take jk rowling seriously, but she had something to say about regulus. apparently, he "got in a little too deep... He was attracted to it, but the reality of what it meant was way too much to handle"

now, we can argue about what was regulus attracted to, but as a slytherin i will assume regulus was attracted to the power voldemort possessed. now, “the reality of what it meant was way too much to handle” could be the fact that voldemort was actively making horrocruxes, but i would find it weird that someone could excuse a literal genocide but draw the line at immortality, so the reality of what it meant is probably more about the killing part.

now, you may be thinking “why would he join the death eaters if he couldn’t stand some death?” well, growing up with that kind of family probably desensitized him to some extend. we can’t forget that this boy died at 18, he was barely a child when he joined the death eaters and he didn’t become active until 17.

regulus definitely wasn’t defying everyone when he joined the death eaters, but i like seeing it this way:

regulus was getting into so much danger by joining the dark lord, there would be probably people around him who were worried about him, he may have ignored them.

but there was one who tried harder than anyone. his brother. i will fight whoever i have to fight, but i won’t believe that sirius let his little brother alone for a second while he could still look out for him. i won’t believe he didn’t beg for reg to come with him, and i won’t believe that even when he was disowned he didn’t ask for reg to not join the death eaters.

and, definitely, i won’t believe that regulus didn’t care about sirius. everyone may had told regulus to join the death eaters, but the one regulus cared the most was telling him not to join them.

so, of course, he joined them.

And I left the door open to the dark

I said, "Come in, come in, whatever you are"

But it didn't want me yet

he joins at 16, quite a young age, yet nothing happens yet, he’s not old enough after all

maybe he hanged around the future death eaters gang, and maybe he cursed some muggleborns, but he wasn’t active, all that once had screamed danger looked now stupid, after all, what had changed?

he’s still far way from the reality of the situation, the dark didn’t want him yet

Then like a babe in a crib

After some big hand turns out the light

And I opened my arms wide to the dark

I said, "Take it all, whatever you want"

a babe in a crib is such a painful metaphor

baby’s are supposed to be comfortable in a crib, happy,safe

when regulus had grown comfortable in that situation, he faced the reality, the violence, the death

his first reaction was probably to keep his posture and try to follow the others “take it, whatever you want” after all, regulus was active for a year, yet when he disappeared he had made enough of a reputation himself that people believed he was killed by voldemort. this boy was probably a menace.

I didn't know that I was young

I didn't know what it would take

I didn't know what it would take

this is the most painful part for me

“i didn’t know i was young”

sometimes we like to think we’re so mature and so old only to find out years later we were only kids. i think of sixteen-year-old me and i can’t help but smile at the fact that i believed i was practically an adult, because i was a teenager and so young.

my memories are sweeter than regulus’, for sure, as he had joined a terrorist group, and he had probably sacrificed so much of his integrity in order to fit in.

the fact that “i didn’t know what it would take” repeats twice makes me think that’s the breaking point of the protagonist, and regulus breaking point was voldemort hurting kreacher. for me, regulus probably had suspect about the horrocrux for a while until that confirms it

in that moment he makes the decision to end it all, and to redeem in his own twisted way

“Sometimes I think I am free”

the desire to redeem himself, the hope there’s something else for him, that he can do something better with his life

“Until I find I'm back in line again”

life isn’t a fairytale, regulus’ redemption stays between him and kreacher and his hopes evaporates as he’s drowned by inferis. he’s back in line, as he will be forever remembered as regulus black, the death eater.

or, well, kreacher doesn’t die there, and he lives long enough to clean regulus’ name

‘Fight! Fight! Fight for my master, defender of house-elves! Fight the Dark Lord, in the name of brave Regulus! Fight!’

________________________________________________

it’s interesting to say that before we’ve talked about the “After some big hand turns out the light” part, and it can be interpreted both as the reality of what joining the dark lord meant and being dragged by the inferis.

well HI AGAIN!!

i’ve been missing for a while, i know, but right now i’m about to face one of my country’s most difficult exams and i’m in the excellency program, so i have little to no time left

i love regulus so much and i need more morally grey regulus fics, drop some recs if you know any please
