Merry Christmas <3
(does it count if it’s a kiss over the mistletoe?)
Extremely displeased to announce I just opened my writing doc to find the fic has not yet written itself. Will check back in tomorrow to see if it’s made any progress
james potter is the fun dad.
regulus hates this. he wants to be fun too. but no, it’s james who harry runs too when he wants to laugh til he cries. it’s james who lets harry fly just a little higher than he should or buys him far too many toys when the toy chest is already overflowing. it’s james who harry goes to when he wants a sweet treat before dinner or to be swung upside down til his hair matches his fathers even more. james potter is the fun dad- not regulus.
but, what regulus takes far too long to see- is he is the safe dad. it’s regulus who harry’s little feet paddle over to when he scrapes his knee or bumps his head. it’s regulus who rocks and sings harry a lullaby before bed. it’s regulus side of the bed young harry crawls into after a night terror and he’s too frightened to sleep alone. oh yes- james potter is the fun dad, but regulus is the safe dad.
not to say harry has no fun with regulus or doesn’t feel safe with james. harry knows his dads love and adore him and both do that perfectly. but sometimes he just needs to have a laugh with james, or a cry with regulus.
and that’s okay.
"I swore I would be true
And honey so did you
So why were you holding her hand?
Is that the way we stand?
Were you lying all the time?
Was it just a game to you?
.
But I'm in so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger?"

This song reminds me a lot of Jegulus, particularly Regulus maybe being jealous of James's attachment to Lily?
funny how you think this is gonna stop me even though i almost threw up reading the previous chapter and still clicked the ‘next chapter’ button ☺️
james: it’s a shame how fast our childhood has passed
peter: yeah, i mean, when was the last time any of us was just unconditionally happy and, i don’t know, blew bubbles?
sirius: i don’t think i ever did that but i did blow moony like forty minutes ago in our dorm. made us both really happy
remus: he’s right
regulus: why? why on earth do you have no verbal filter?
I saw an amazing reference and decided to draw it with Moriarty.

“but these characters have canon personalities, you can’t just make up your own thing”
maybe YOU can’t, but i can. it sounds like a skill issue to me.
