The Fall Of Rome

Regulus Black + Halsey’s Castle

alternate title: gay and bisexual harry potter characters are sad

approximately 36 hours ago, i made this post. the important part being:

i have had a growing fondness for regulus/remus in Regulus Lives AUs and i’m not sure exactly why, but just like….. picture regulus and remus working on filing an appeal sirius’s behalf after he gets arrested…. and they’re with each other so much it just kind of Happens…. but remus Stops it because he feels guilty bc part of his attraction to regulus is definitely lingering feelings for sirius like… and they haven’t spoken in quite a few years and they hardly even Acknowledge each other in order meetings @ grimmauld place and harry thinks it’s probably because regulus, like the rest of sirius’s family, is prejudiced and Doesn’t Like werewolves

but it is actually because they are Awkward Exes and don’t want sirius to find out abt them lmfao

thus, 36 hours later, the entire narrative of harry potter has essentially been flipped on his head in order to justify 12k words of vintage rarepair hp slash.

regulus black/remus lupin (obviously), with some serious wolfstar tucked away in there. remadora makes a special guest appearance too bc i am bound by the frivolous and fickle chains of hp canon. enjoy.

           It starts the night everything else ended, and it starts with a sickening betrayal. As if it weren’t enough that James and Lily were dead, as if it weren’t enough that the world didn’t even have the decency to stop turning and mourn for two of his greatest friends; wizarding folk celebrated in the streets, and he sits at home with his fingers and lips going numb, knowing that the Potters’ Secret-Keeper betrayed them, knowing that Sirius, whom he had known so well, whom he had loved so deeply, was a liar.

… and at night, magic felt like it might be a terrible thing.

“To the Dark Lord - I know I will be dead long before you read this, but I want you to know that it was I who discovered your secret. I have stolen the real Horcrux and intend to destroy it as soon as I can. I face death in the hope that when you meet your match, you will be mortal once more. - R.A.B.”
