harry potter fanfiction: they were partners at the potions class and the assignment was to do amortentia and they realized they were each other's favorite smell

Regulus Black is for girls who like to stay up late because it’s the only time of the day when they don’t feel restricted. He is for girls who feel everything too much to a point where it feels numb. For girls who study when they are sad just to feel accomplished and worthy of something. Who read when happy just to remind themselves their happiness will never be as happy as happiness in books. Who thinks they don’t have any reason to be sad but can’t stop feeling so, eventually blaming themselves for it.
He is for girls who like the smell of fresh grass during rain. For girls who like to think they look tough but aren’t. Who desperately craves affection but never admits. Who feels alone in every crowd
i see your dorlene academic rivals to lovers and i raise you dorcas thinks they’re academic rivals and marlene is actually just trying to cheat off of dorcas and that’s why they’re getting the same marks on everything
James: *punching tf out of someone*
Regulus: why am I into this?
Regulus: *verbally abusing the life out of someone*
James: why am I into this?

why has NO ONE literally no one written a modern au fic where james is a skater and regulus is like major crushing on him so to get closer to him he ask him to teach him how to skate and tells him its bc he's trying to impress "a girl" and james ends up like majorly whipped for this man and is like insaneeeelllyyyyy crushing on him but doesnt try anything bc he thinks regulus has this girl he wants but ofc bc hes james potter hes not the best at hiding what he wants and yata yata yata
THERES SO MUCH U CAN DO WITH IT
U CAN CHUCK IN SIRIUS THERE AND AT THE START HAVE HIM ALL TEASING REGULUS OVER THIS "GIRL" HE LIKES BUT SLOWLY REALISING ITS JAMES AND JUST TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO FEEL ABOUT THAT
and ofc OFC peter would be the only person to see thru regulus from the start (soon remus catches on too and its just him and peter being little shits dropping "subtle" hints about whats happening
ig ima have to write it 🙄🙄 EDIT: CHAPTER ONE NOW OUT:
*at some point in 1978*
sirius : i wanna do something illegal
remus : marry me
sirius : what?
remus : you heard me
"Remus and James bonding over liking the Black Brothers" blah blah, give me Regulus and Sirius muttering to each other in French whenever either of their respective crushes does literally anything. Give me the Black Brothers being so beyond fucked with who they like that they turn to each other
him 🧎🏻♂️
James: Regulus...
Regulus: Oh no, 'Regulus' in B flat.
Regulus: You're disappointed.
Wtf? I didn't know there was a James Potter emoji 😲
