I love love LOVE “Call Me By Your Name” jegulus, dont get me wrong. Especially if you want to stay with how the movie/book ends, with Oliver/James leaving and getting married in the spring, but….. what about cmbyn moonwater au? I mean, it would be absolutely perfect! Academic rivals to lovers, with Regulus getting jealous that his father is never giving him attention and only focusing on Remus, the attractive, mysterious mentee his father is letting stay at their house. While Remus is annoyed because his mentors son is infuriatingly attractive and smart who plays the guitar and the piano. Could end either with cannon or happy ending, but i give you CMBYN Moonwater au!!!!
