Remus Lupin wanted to die, yet he lived the longest.
James Potter wanted to live, yet he was the first to die.
Sirius Black wanted to break free from his family, yet he died one of them.
Peter Pettigrew wanted to be known, yet he never was.

Remus can’t bake for shit, he tries ok but every time he bakes something it always goes wrong, think burnt cookies and sunken cakes
Sirius and James can’t bake either so the three of them rely heavily on Peter the baking king he is for any and all occasions
Now though remus wished he had learnt how, he can no longer walk past cafes and bakeries without feeling a sting of betrayal and Sirius no longer has cake for his birthday anymore

regulus, while being dragged down by the inferi, thought about the only thing that reminded him that happiness could still exist “at least james lives.”
just a little gloomy image that made him die peacefully.
he didn’t know that in 15 years he would have seen the same james potter’s child in that cave.
james, before voldemort had the opportunity to open the door, relieved his whole life in 7 seconds.
his favourite part was when he first met his best friend. his sirius.
that’s it. he’s the one in his thoughts the moment the unforgivable curse touches his chest.
“at least sirius lives”
sirius… just a moment before he was throwing charms with his godson, and in a question of seconds he was there.
in that endlessly veil, that would have kept his soul for the rest of the eternity.
his gaze fell on the beautiful moon that followed him always.
when he was alone, in his cell at azkaban all it took was for him to look up at the night sky.
his moon. his remus.
so, as the satellite stayed with him all those years, his memory would’ve lived in his mind until the end of the times.
“at least remus lives.”
remus. he sees green. but that green reminded him of the woods. of the nights he spent with his friends, or his lover only, trying to fight the beast inside him. he ended accepting it, afterwards. moony was in him for a reason. he thought he needed it to love someone more than himself. and that’s sirius.
his shiny star.
his lovely little sun.
he thought of how he would’ve reached peace, after all those years.
“at least, i lived with them”

”havent i given enough? given enough? always the fool” is regulus not sirius. because regulus followed the rules. he stayed quite he never spoke out of turn. he did what was asked of him with little to no hesitation. he hated it but that didn’t mean he acted out. but in the end it got him no where in life. no brother. no friends. nobody to love him.

Thinking about the fact that the Prank is actually canon is another level of pain.
Whatever you do, don't imagine James Potter sobbing in a bathroom stall in the middle of the night, hiding his torment from the others, especially from Remus, because he doesn't think he will ever be able to truly forgive Sirius for his actions and it hurts because he still loves Sirius and he still wants to hug him and tell him everything will be alright, but he can't - and he won't- because Sirius Black has just fucked everything up.
And he knew, Sirius didn't just ruin a friendship...
James had noticed it, the way they looked at each other.
The way sometimes Remus' gaze would focused on Sirius’s eyes a bit too long.
The way the was captured by Sirius’s words and smiles.
So no, he didn't just ruin a friendship, above everything else, Sirius broke Remus heart-not just his trust.
James doesn't think he will ever forgive that.
So he cries, alone, for the-best friend he lost, who was his brother, who was his soulmate, who was his forever.
So he cries, alone, for all the broken hearts that Sirius Black is responsible for.

regulus wasn’t happy. he wasn’t necessarily sad either, but he wasn’t happy. everything around him seemed monotone and drab, and the world that had once been viewed through rose colored glasses was now blobs of grey. he went on, day by day, hoping something would change, but it never did. it had been a while since he had first noticed the sun, but it’s common knowledge that the sun can only shine once the stars disappear.
so he did.

i like imagining that sirius gushed about regulus to his new friends at hogwarts, but also talked about how worried he was for him because he was all alone in that house. peter felt bad, and would write regulus a letter everyday, telling him sirius loved him and was worried and he was too, in some strange way.
peter was confused when he waved and smiled at regulus on the way to hogwarts on reg’s first year, because the boy glared and turned the other direction, looking offended that someone like him would dare to even look at him.
regulus didn’t receive a single one of his letters, they were all turned to ash by the hand of one certain woman.

2nd of August Jegulus prompt: constant, by @jegulus-microfic
(Word count: 1,158 ok maybe this one isn't a microfic, I might've gone overboard, oops. Hope u still enjoy)
Enough
"Hey Reggie. I've been looking for you." James went up to kiss his boyfriend but was gently pushed away. "Did I do something…?"
"I can't- I can't deal with this…" Regulus's voice slightly broke, which was highly unusual for the youngest Black.
"Hey, what's wrong?" Jamie looked into Reg's eyes, looking for an answer.
"This- This constant pressure and fucking anxiety! I'm never good enough no matter what I do!" Potter was about to retaliate but the Slytherin was not finished "I'm not strong, nor resilient, nor dedicated enough for my mother. I'm not brave and good enough for my brother. I'm too closed off but then I'm ignored if I try to talk, I just- there's no winning! There's no fucking point! I just constantly disappoint everyone and I'm going to disappoint you eventually and you're going to fucking leave me like everyone else!" Icy blue eyes looked away from worried brown ones. He didn't want to cry. But fuck was it getting difficult.
"Hey, I'm not going to leave you…" A tanned hand reached to cup a pale face, but it was pushed away.
"You say that now! When the war begins you'll go back on your word." It was true. James Potter wouldn't have a death eater boyfriend, no matter how much he loved him.
"You just have to join us, or stay on the side lines. As long as you don't side with Voldemort." The bloody encouraging smile was infuriating and Regulus snapped.
"You don't fucking understand, Potter! It's not simple like that! I'm trapped! I'm fucking trapped! Dumbledore won't trust me even if I wanted to join you and my parents would come after me. After Sirius. After you! The only thing stopping them is having an heir!"
"Nothing will happen! We'll be careful!" That was such a load of bullshit. The Marauders? Being careful?! When have they ever?! They lived off adrenaline and recklessness.
"We both know you bloody won't. You lot are fucking insane, you will go head into the war without caring for the consequences!"
"We're doing what's right!"
"For you!" He didn't want to sound accusatory, but Potter wasn't able to see the other side of the coin. "And it's great you're doing it. But I can't!" Voice cracked, much like the boy speaking. "I would be putting you in danger and betraying my friends!" Barty, Evan… They didn't have much of a choice either. Barty could be a tad lunatic sometimes but he wasn't a bad person underneath. He had always been there for Reg. They all have.
"You shouldn't be friends with bloody death eaters to begin with!"
"You don't fucking get it Potter! You will never! You're not part of a purist family! You're not a Slytherin!"
"You're not your family! Nor your house!"
"We get marked as evil the moment the sorting hat shouts Slytherin! We get constant comments and looks! Even from you! You fucking hate Slytherins! I'm a bloody Slytherin, Potter!"
"But you're different-" No. He wasn't going to have this crap.
"I don't want to be a fucking exception! And I'm your exception! The rest of the school sees me as nothing but a blood purist who wants to kill muggles! I don't give a bloody shit about them! I don't care if someone has muggle parents or pureblood wizards ones! I just want to be left the fuck alone!"
"You can ignore them! All of them! Prove them different! Everyone can make their own choices!"
"Not all of us! Sirius only left our house alive because our mother knew she had me!" If Regulus wasn't there to 'save' the name of the House of Black, Sirius would have been a goner. But they simply couldn't seem to understand that! "Sirius didn't 'escape'. Our mother let him go. It was convenient for her. Not having to deal with him anymore. She won't have that courtesy with me."
"Dumbledore will protect you! He will help!" Black scoffed. Albus Dumbledore. The one thing he agreed with the purists was that he was fucking insane, disguised behind words of wisdom and kindness. When in reality, he didn't care. He didn't give a shit about anyone. Not his students, not the muggleborns, nobody. He would sacrifice all of his allies if he saw fit. If it gave him power. Even if he was fighting for a good cause, he wasn't so different from the Dark Lord himself.
"I will not trust that old rag with my life, James. I'm sorry but I won't." Round glasses were pushed up and red lips turned into a line.
"So that's it? You're going to give up?" The desire to both punch and kiss this tanned boy was unreal. Couldn't he fucking understand that Reggie was doing it for the best?! Again, he was never good enough. Not even for his bloody boyfriend.
"I knew this would happen. I'm fucking stupid. I shouldn't have allowed myself to fall for you. And I surely shouldn't have accepted to date you." Dark eyes widened and James bit his tongue.
"Wow… Wow! Really? Are you bloody for real?!"
"We're both going to get hurt, Potter. You will break from not saving me. I will break from losing you." What the Gryffindor didn't know is that it was already happening. The small boy had been slowly tearing apart for the last several weeks. Anticipating this moment. Because nothing good in his life could last.
"There's still time! I can still-"
"No, James! You can't!" Fucking hero complex that wouldn't move for anything. One person could never save everyone. They were wizards, not bloody superheroes. "Hate me for what I'm going to say if you want. But I'd rather kill dozens of people than get you or Sirius killed."
"Reggie…" The expression of the oldest boy wasn't readable. It could be sadness, fear, disappointment…
"I think it's best if we part ways." Their hearts breaking could possibly be heard through the hallways of the castle. A tragic story of two people who deeply loved each other but weren't meant to be. The unfairness of the world splitting the ground beneath them.
"No, don't do this…" The next words were spoken in a different tone. They were soft, caring, and tremendously melancholic.
"You can't save me, love." That had been the first time Reggie called James that. He thought it many times before. But never out loud. "And I will not drag you down with me. You were the best thing that has ever happened to me." As a goodbye, Regulus placed a tender kiss on James's lips. Barely kissed back. Too stunned to react. "Take care of my brother for me." Potter only snapped out of it when the love of his life was walking away.
"No, wait! Regulus! Reggie, please!" Disappearing into the shadows, the Slytherin slid down to the floor and cried and cried. No matter how much he cried, it wasn't enough.

sad headcannon time!
when Lily called Petunia “pet” she pronounced it like “Pete” so whenever she’d hear the marauders joking around with Peter she’d think of her sister for a second, and that was her way of keeping Petunia with her those first few years at Hogwarts.

there’s a quote from atyd I think I’ll never forget and it’s ofc Remus talking:
“Here for a good time, not a long time”
(context: either Mary or Marlene, I can’t remember, tells him to quit smoking because it would kill him)
and this hits so hard when you think about the fact that (apart from Mary) he was the last one to die.
I can’t with this fandom.

with my continued headcanon that like teen remus absolutely hates children and babies but children and babies like him and like always think he’s cool and listen to what he says - im just here thinking like he does end up becoming a teacher, he is surrounded by small children and i feel like he began to like not hate children as much and eventually grow fond of them after the war, because james and lily both had a soft spot for small children and he lost them but he couldn’t lose their spirit
