If You Would Like

James has chubby cheeks.

for the @jegulus-microfic prompt: intent.

“Potter,” Regulus calls down the empty hall.

“Fuck off, Regulus,” James says back without turning around.  He doesn’t even sound angry, just tired.

“James,” Regulus tries again, hoping his voice sounds softer in the hall than it does ringing in his own ears.

James turns around.

“You were right,” Regulus starts.  It’s easier than I was wrong.  “It wasn’t my intention-” he cuts himself off.  It doesn’t matter what he intended.  He knows exactly how ignoring James in front of everyone came off.  He tries again.  “I shouldn’t have- I’m sorry.  It doesn’t matter.  I don’t care who knows.”

James scoffs, but it doesn’t hide the hope in his eyes.  “Prove it,” he says.

“Kiss me?” Regulus asks, daring to take a few steps closer.

“Right here in the corridor?  Anyone could-”

“See us?  That’s the idea.  Dinner’s nearly over too.  Should be a good audience.”  Regulus says it lightly, as if a steady voice can disguise the fact that he’s nearly vibrating out of his skin.

It works, though.  James grins at him, a small thing at first that steadily grows until it lights up his whole face.  “You really mean it,” he says, and it’s not a question.

“I really, really do,” Regulus answers anyway, closing the remaining space between them.  When he’s close enough, he grabs James’ collar and pulls him in.  James is putty in his hands, bending to meet him with lips that were made to fit against his own.

Regulus doesn’t know how long they’ve been kissing.  He doesn’t care.  He’s intent on never doing anything else.  That is, until he hears Sirius’ voice from the far end of the corridor.

“Prongs, what the fuck?”

281 words!

James is captured, bored out of his mind. So he starts singing, all the songs he knows. Bowie, Queen, Taylor Swift, all the Disney songs in order of the movies. After that, it all goes downhills. Murmered lyrics, parts of songs, and the worst, mispronounced French songs.

And Regulus is standing guard. Suffering through his fourth hour of guarding this man. And he’s this close to gagging him.

I think sometimes people forget that Peter was the youngest of the four so therefore he was the youngest person to become an animagus.

Stop making my guy stupid he was as equally as smart as James, Sirius and Remus.

Jegulus/Starchaser just reminds me of Kate Bishop and Yelena Belova's friendship in the Hawkeye series

facts.

Regulus and Sirius are so protective of James that they’d torture and possibly kill for him. The thing is James doesn’t like it when they do that and he gets upset when he finds out if they do anything. So one time Regulus goes overboard because someone jinxed James’ broom that caused James to fall and break his ribs and arm. He nearly kills the culprit but Sirius stops him and takes the fault when James finds out. James would forgive his best friend but he wouldn’t easily forgive his boyfriend. And Sirius knows that and prefers taking the heat if it means Regulus and James being together and happy.

something that really irritates me is that people constantly feminize one partner of a gay couple or make him trans. as if it’s impossible for a cis man to be in a gay relationship or be masculine.

people making one person trans is especially present in smut. like i seriously have no idea why, but there is so much content out there where one man is trans and the other is cis and they be rawdogging it.

now there absolutely is nothing wrong with a trans man being in a gay relationship. there is something wrong with it happening to nearly EVERY SINGLE GAY SHIP I COME ACROSS.

either one of them is feminized or trans or BOTH. ofc you can hc them however you want but something about its popularity rubs me the wrong way. it almost implies that two men can really only be in a relationship if one is trans or feminine.

So like hear me out but for a Marylily ship name you could obviously have like Lily or Flower for Lilys but but like what about Lamb for Mary's, cause like Mary's little lamb??? Like maybe LilyLamb?? Actually no that's stupid. Just all the guy ships or straight ships have cool names. Like flowerpot or Wolfstar or Starchaser or RoseKiller, like why can't wlw get cool names like that.
