Anyway
Maybe controversial but if Jegulus were a colour, they'd be brown
And I know most people think gold or red or smth but it just feels right. And I don't mean it in a dull and boring way, I mean warm sepias and rusts. Rich browns and deep oranges. They're warm and timeless and secretive and their energy is deep and homely. They're nighttime meetings and sitting in the abandoned corridors of an ancient castle in silence admiring the stars. They're a shitty apartment in urban France lit by the streetlights and moon. This is what I mean:
The whole time I was reading choices while it was updating I saw it through this colour grading and I still read fics with this colouring in mind pretty often

Do you guys see the picture
Seems unfair that I don't have 18 hours a day to read and write fanfiction. Sleep? Work? What are these nonsense tasks?
Fuck drugs. Have you ever been addicted to reading angsty fanfics about Harry Potter's dead parents and their friends? That shit will kill you.

“I wasn’t always this way, was I? You remember better than I do. When I was a boy, your little brother. Always trailing at your heels, eager to spend every moment I could with you. I used to ask to sleep in your room, didn’t I?”
Cal narrows his eyes. “You were afraid of the dark.”
“And then I wasn’t. Just like that.”

Nelly and Timbaland’s “promiscuous” song is so @imdamagecontrol’s jegulus you cant change my mind
When they are making love (vanilla, I know. Rolling my eyes.) James wants to hold into Regulus' hands. He'll either pin them above his head or interwind their fingers.
All while keeping eye-contact, loving gazes.
Well,
When they are fucking, James will grip Regulus' neck, placing his handprint there into a neckline of a lilac bruise. And he would tie Reg's hands together, till there's a angry red mark.
All while staring into Reg's eyes, which roll back, fill with tears.
That's the post.

Cal and Maven thoughts (again)
The multiple instances of Cal almost mentioning Maven KILLS ME. Like that moment in GS when he's trying to comfort the child who's terrified of their ability, so much so that they refuse to even want to learn how to use it, so Cal mentions how he used to be scared of hurting other with his ability as well and he gets so close to mentioning how he was terrified of hurting Maven specifically and that this fear of hurting HIS LITTLE BROTHER is what motivated him to learn how to control it. Or the time in KC where he's trying to convince Cameron to not go and get her brother just yet and she accuses him of not understanding what it's like and he says, "i do if it was… I get it" LIKE STFU RN
like he loves his little brother so much he can never move on from him everything he does is plagued by thoughts of Maven because so much of his heart is Maven I can't breathe he buried Maven on tuck away from everyone and everything because he wanted Maven to finally have some peace and quiet
