as soon as regulus claims someone as a friend or partner - he is CUDDLY. he is such a cuddler. specifically with james. he needs constant physical assurance and contact. he loves james' hands because james has big hands and when they hold hands, james' completely engulf regulus' and it makes him a little dizzy to think about. he loves when they're standing anywhere and james puts both hands on his waist, rubbing circles on his hipbones. other times he will latch onto james' arm like a parasite and he will not let go. when they're home he often finds james lounging and will just. launch himself at him and cuddle up against his chest, on his back, against his side, limbs completely intertwined. when regulus has a bad day he comes home sniffly and demands james to lie on top of him like a weighted blanket. he loves latching onto james in their sleep, he does not allow two inches of space to come between them. he's always brushing his fingers through james' hair and he will always fall asleep during a movie if james touches his hair, runs gentle fingers across his cheeks, his back, or arms. when they sit on the couch he always tucks his feet underneath james' thigh to keep warm. james always thrives on giving regulus massages, and he melts every time, getting sleepy but flustered by james' touch. they're also mega annoying at parties because they get so handsy when they're drunk. as soon as regulus takes a sip of alcohol he's practically ripping james' clothes off, fussy and trying to touch every spare inch of him. they contrast well, too - james is a living, walking furnace and regulus is always very cold, grabbing at james to warm him up by wrapping his arms around him. regulus is so fussy about it, needy for any bit of touch james will offer him.

“english isn’t my first langua—“ say no more.

the bitches traumatized by saltburn would never survive the fics in my ao3 history

James: How did you get your brother to co-operate with you?

Sirius: I threatened to reveal his dark secret.

James: Which is what?

Sirius: I have no idea, I was bluffing, but it must be something horrible.

James *nervous sweating*:

My Friends/Family: Hey can I see your phone? I need to look something up.

Me, closing like 80+ Ao3 Tabs as fast as I can:

me, reading my own incomplete writing : *gasp* and then what happened?

Regulus always knew how to use the tie ♡

I love this two so so so much ♡

Remus: James have you ever won an argument with Regulus.

James: We never argue. He speaks French and I shut up.

oby jeggy is a different kind of dsfkdsf so here is them from the first fic in that series, i will touch you with my mind by my love @itsjaywalkers

Growing up I always hoped I’d be as cheerful as James, as smart as Remus and as confident as Sirius.

I ended up with the mental health of Regulus Black.

regulus: can you stop talking abt me, reggie this reggie that. In ten years you won’t remember my last name

james: that’s cause in 10 years you’ll have my last name

sirius:

remus:

barty: I call dibs on being the flower girl

he wants me so bad (he’s fictional and i read a fanfic about him)

Sirius : Guys, this is my little brother. Regulus.

Remus : Hello, nice to meet you. I'm Remus.

Regulus : Hmm. Sirius never shuts up about you. (Smirks)

Peter : Oh. Without a doubt the superior brother. (Grins widely). I'm Peter.

Regulus : Pleasure is all mine, Peter.

James : ......

Regulus : And.. you are? (Judging)

James : (Eyes wide and lips part) Gay. So very gay. Very much. Gay--that is.

Regulus : ....

*James, bringing Regulus home to meet his parents*

Regulus, seeing Monty and realizing James will always be hot no matter his age: thank the lord

Effie, seeing the same look she had when she met Monty’s parents for the first time: amen

James: Do you really hate Sirius?

Regulus: Yes.

James: So you're telling me you wouldn't save his life? What if he needed a kidney?

Regulus: James, he's my brother. Of course I'd give him my kidney. Just not my respect.
