Remus always knows...
James rambling about who he's falling for, and everyone thinks it's Lily until he slips up and says "he" and Regulus, who had been desperately ignoring it looks up at him. Just in time to see James go crimson and run away
"-just so fucking perfect, you know?"
James Potter's voice carried through the stacks of the library as Regulus paused, listening intently from his now-hiding space, staring at the words on his open book but not taking in a single syllable.
"I just...I feel like I'm invisible. Like no matter what I do, I'll never be worthy. Like, why is it the one person I fancy just thinks nothing of me, Moony? Like...just looks right through me?"
Regulus snorted a bit, unable to hear Remus Lupin's much quieter response. Of course Potter was still waxing poetic about Evans. of course he couldn't let her go. Of course.
"I know, but I just- there's nobody more amazing! So...smart, and...and gorgeous!"
More murmuring, then some shuffling as Potter and Lupin sat at a table nearby, now within Regulus's line of sight. He stared more intensely at his book, still listening closely.
"No, I...Moony, it's not just a crush. I can't even describe how I feel. Like, whenever we look at each other...I'm just...I just feel better, you know? Like I'm like light or something. It's so stupid and cheesy, I know, but I just..."
Potter's voice trailed off and Regulus chanced a glance up to see the taller boy also looking at him. Feeling himself go red all over, he quickly looked back at his book, feigning indifference.
But then Potter continued, his voice airy and distracted, as if he was almost drunk.
"Merlin, he's just so beautiful."
And at that, Regulus' couldn't help but glance's eyes snapped back up to meet James's. Because the words seemed to come from James's mouth quite without his permission. And both of them seemed to realize at the same time that James had said 'he.'
And then, before Regulus could react, James turned bright red and stuttered something about Quidditch practice before running off, leaving Regulus to stare incredulously at Remus.
"....Well. He's clearly not talking about Lily," Remus grinned, smirking at Regulus and walking away.

Two words to describe the marauders fandom? Hot mess
They had a plan. Theyd spent days carefully constructing every detail. Everything had to work and everything would. The plan had no flaws.
Except for the fact that James wouldn't be able to help if anything went wrong.
He hadn't seen regulus in three weeks, he was due back today. If the plan had worked, regulus would be in his arms tonight. If he isn't then he's dead and James might be next.
"James? Mate? You alright?" Sirius called across the dinner table, snapping James from his thoughts. He looked up to find the entire table looking at him. His mum, dad, Sirius and Remus, Lily, Marlene and Peter. All the same look of curiosity and concern.
"I...umm- I'm not that hungry." James picked up his plate and took it to the kitchen, dropping it in the sink before climbing the stairs to his room. He opened the window, like he and Regulus had agreed and sat on the window seat, looking out into the dark winter night.
About twenty minutes later, Lily knocked on James' door and stepped inside, a hand resting ontop of her bump.
"Is he here yet?" She asked, sitting beside James and placing a hand on his knee. "He'll be here, Jamie. I can feel it."
James lay his head on his girlfriends shoulder and took her hand in his, leaving the other still on his thigh.
A black cat padded past the tree line and up the hill that led to Potter Manor. It was late now and the full house was in darkness except from the window that he had climbed through so many times as a teenager. As he got closer, he noticed two figures in the window. James and Lily. Cuddled up. Lily looked right at him and shook James awake.
They jumped up and both looked down at him with relief all over their faces as Regulus transformed.
"He's alive." Lily whispered just loud enough for regulus to hear and he began climbing the vines, the locket heavy around his neck, the loves of his life waiting for him.
