Pairing: Regulus Black x Reader
Warning: Fluff
Summary: Just some headcanonâs of Reg
A/N: Redid my account, again. I will remake the James Potter fluff headcanonâs eventually. For now Iâm focused on the love of my life, Regulus Arcturus Black. I also have some more plans for him including Dad Headcanonâs cause we missed out on Reg being a dad and Iâll be forever pissed.
Regulus would play any song on the piano that you asked for. If he didnât know it, heâd learn it.
Regulus would learn to braid your hair for you, and in return, some days he allow you to touch his hair.
Regulus wouldnât become a death eater if you asked, if he already was one, heâd run away with you.
Regulus wouldnât care about his familyâs opinions on you. Especially if you were muggle-born, half-blood or even just a muggle. If he loved you, he loved so fiercely not even his parents could break it.
Regulus would easily become friends with your friends. Quite a charmer this one is.
Regulus would plan some of the best dates. Picnics under the stars, dates to France and even walking the forbidden forest after dark.
Regulus would be super overprotective of you. If someone dare said one bad thing about you, that person would be gone within a minute.
Regulus would buy you whatever you wanted. Even if you didnât necessarily needed it, or ask for it. If he saw you staring at something, it was yours the next minute.
Regulus isnât big on public affection but behind close doors, you are his Queen. Back massages, cuddles, reading to you and making you whatever food or drink youâd like.
Regulus would be a great chef. I mean, this man is great at everything. But his food was quite literally to die for. Heâd often ask as a joke if you would choose his food over him. Youâd say you would and he didnât quite realise you werenât joking. His food was that great.
Regulus loves when you reassure him of your love. Even if you think heâs asleep, it means the world to him.
Regulus, at first, wouldnât be big into saying âI love youâ but after you say it, heâll begin to say it back. Youâd definitely say it first but he may say it when your asleep.
Regulus would be totally soft for you. The only person who could make him laugh, cry, smile, fall off a chair, whatever it is, only you can make him do it.
Regulus would jump in front of a train for you. Heâd do anything to protect you. Your safety is his top priority.
Regulus finds your happiness is the most important thing in the world. Heâd buy you a whole damn cart of kittens if you asked. Thereâs not a thing he wouldnât get for you or do for you if it made you happy.
Regulus would ask you to cut his hair because heâd only ever trust you.
Regulus would take your name if you two got married. Because he wants to end the Black name just as much as Sirius. If you have children, theyâd take your name.
Regulus would definitely buy you a holiday house somewhere like Paris or Orleans. Somewhere in France where you two could spend days doing nothing.
Regulus would definitely build your dream house for you after graduation. He wouldnât even offer to live in it. Heâd build it for you and if you asked, heâd move in.
Regulus would be so happy when you two graduate. Heâd kiss you all over and smile proudly. This man would be super encouraging for everything. Graduation, your first job, getting a house. Whatever it was, heâs your biggest fan.
Regulus would definitely cry to you in the night about all his problems and how much stress heâs under by his parents. You would bake him warm chocolate-chip cookies and give him tea, coffee or hot cocoa. Heâd love you a million for it.
Regulus would comfort you from nightmares and youâd do the same for him. You two would definitely make a deal to be completely honest with each other. No matter what.
Regulus would sneak you into his house whenever his parents were asleep or into the dormitories, so you two could cuddle and kiss. Heâd also sneak over to you.
Regulus would spend hours reading with you. Studying, sleeping, playing the piano and even pranking people.
Regulus would sneak into different classes to spend more time with you. Heâd skip school if you asked.
Regulus absolutely loves holidays such as Halloween or Christmas. Youâd have so much fun decorating and making cookies together. Matching Halloween costumes, and youâd always win the competitions for them.
Regulus would love sleeping on your chest so he could hear your heartbeat and remind himself youâre alive. Youâre here. Youâre real.
Regulus would spend hours talking about stars and astronomy. Youâd patiently listen because it was rare to see him so excited over something.
Regulus would call you all sorts of nicknames. Darling, love, sweetheart, princess, bubs. You would call him things like babe, baby, reg, reggie, my starboy and have cute joking names like heir of slytherin, prince of darkness, his royal highness.
Regulus would only dance with you.
james potter
âsay yesâ by elliott smith
i feel like james doesnât really listen to music that much, more so just pick out a few songs that sirius and remus like and just go with it. remus loves elliott smith (despite his more âgrungeâ music taste) so he would play a lot of his songs when heâs alone or just chilling out.
james would hear this song and be like âUMMM THIS IS SO ME COREâ and heâd listen to it on repeat for WEEKS.
remus lupin
âmy iron lungâ by radiohead
this mother fucker is a radiohead stan. remus is the radiohead bf sirius is his blur gf.
he loves a little guitar riff and then absolutely nonsensical breakdowns in the middle of the chorus đ
also i feel like he just relates to the teen angst vibe of it. he listens to it when heâs upset that heâs a queer werewolf from care home. so HIS âiron lungâ in that sense would be he queerness and his upbringing, or maybe even sirius at some points.
sirius black
âbeetlebumâ by blur
one thing abt sirius is that he only listens to brit-rock or 2000âs pop punk bangers with explicit sexual innuendos. they just hit!
heâs an early p!atd stan btw. soz.
and a deftones boy. cringe!
but he really likes blur!! he listens to it for hours at a time. he just LOVES the chorus soooo much. itâs a bit basic but he likes it.
lily evans
âvelvet ringâ by big thief
i feel like lily is a folk fan above all other genres of music. obviously she loves fleetwood mac, taylor swift, etc⊠but her loyalties lie with the cluttered, wordy and intimate lyricism of artists like big thief, clario and sidney gish.
lily listens to this specific song whenever she feel nostalgic or when sheâs got growing pains. it kinda grounds her. sheâs the type of person who gets so fixated on the past or what her futures gonna look like, so she channels those feelings into reflection instead. she finds a lot big thiefâs songs do just that :)
marlene mckinnon
âdebrisâ by lowertown
marlene loves indie girl music!! she loves messy vocals and melancholic chord progressions, so she lovesss lowertown.
this song is basically the verbalisation of how she feels other people would treat her if she finally opened up. she feels deeply attacked by the lyrics lol xx
mary mcdonald
âthis is what makes us girlsâ by lana del rey
this mf loves lana del rey more than anything. she is a dark feminine born to die giant falsies dark pink french tips and ices mocha latte typa girlie.
this song just makes her feel so powerful and so connected to her friends!! she thinks itâs just so her. she also feels like her attractiveness is one of her best qualities (which isnât true sheâs literally the funniest and kindest girl at hogwarts) and one of her only strengths and she HATES FEELING THAT WAY⊠so when she listens to lana sheâs like âmmm sheâs so mother! she gets me!!!â
she knows sheâs a pretty girl with a group of pretty girl friends and she loves it!!!!
regulus black
âyouâre on your own kidâ by taylor swift
ok regulus is not a tswizzle fan by any means.
but pandora likes her and forced him to listen to a few of her favourite songs. when this song came on he was like â⊠ok wtf đ§ sheâs so meâ
all of the lyrics just ATE in his mind. he relates to every lyric PAINFULLY SO.
pandora
âwhateverâ by elliott smith
pandora listens to literally every type of music ever.
she likes phoebe bridgers and found out about elliott smith though her, and heard this song and was like âelliott smith wrote this song about reggie and i xxâ
theyâre best friends! they are literally the bestest of friends. such a pure friendship.
all of them :)
âspringâ by angel olsen
bro youâve gotta listen to this song. itâs like evil crack.
ok so around 5th year remus is like âhm. iâm lowk down bad for sirius blackâ and he has his little queer werewolf crisis and in 6th year he kinda becomes his sneaky link lowk!
sirius and remus get drunk af and decide to go up to the astronomy tower for shits and gigs! but guess whoâs up there??? regulusâŠ
theyâre like âoh sozâ and they leave, but remus is kind of like âhmmm thatâs weird xxâ so he comes back up the next day without sirius, and regulus is still there!
regulus is like âwhy the fuck r u here cunt??â and remus is like âmmm cause i want to be xxâ
they chat a little bit and get a little stoned bc remus doesnât really have any bad blood with regulus. theyâre chill.
eventually it gets to like 1am and remus goes âwhy do you come up here?â. regulus is super quiet and gets all fidgety. remus is like âohhhh u come up here to reminisce over a girl and be all romeo and juliet coreâ
regulus is like âno thatâs stupid as fuck. i come up here to think about how i stupid i am.â
remus says âwhy r u stupidâ and then regulus goes on a giant tangent while remus is just sitting there. eventually regulus accidentally spills that he is confusingly attracted to someone and heâs soooo irritated and angry at himself for it!! and remus is like âwho?!!!â and regulus is like ummm im not telling u
they chat a bit more and it becomes like⊠a nightly tradition. a week goes by and reggie admits that heâs weirdly into james potter. he didnât even think he liked men until he kissed barty crouch drunk and on a dare one time. remus is super shocked!! jaw on the floor!
but heâs supportive and heâs like âi get it lol. iâm down bad for ur brotherâ
regulus is like âohhh thatâs why u came up here a few nights ago x. i thought he was dating a girl thoâ
and remus is like âyeah he is đ heâs two timing đ€â
they get a lot closer after that and they just sit and pity each other, regulus loathing himself for being so infatuated with someone he hates and talked to a maximum of TWO TIMES! remus loathing himself for letting himself fall in love with someone who doesnât want to be seen with him doing anything slightly romantic.
they get very close and help eachother with school work, their crushes, etc⊠and they honestly become good friends. neither of them would admit it though.
regulusâs crush remains unrequited and completely secret as james starts finally dating lily in their last year of school. and then he becomes a death eater lol xx
remus is like âwell maybe he was coerced into it!!â because he literally was and regulus told him so. but sirius is like â⊠no he is a full blood supremacistâŠâ
remus misses their nightly chats after graduating hogwarts and when the news comes out that he died, he had no choice but to honour his wishes and their secrecy by refusing to expose their friendship xx
i love trans boy regulus headcanons but thereâs something inside of me that violently screams âall pure blood families r homophobic and transphobic!!!â
and like⊠itâd only be pure blood families. every1 else in the wizarding world is chill with gay ppl but pure blood families hate those queers đżđż bcuz theyâre ruining the blood lines or whatever
âcardiganâ
regulus black x reader
- in which your rivalry with regulus manifests into something a little more romantic, despite your mutual âdislikeâ for one another.
warnings: none??? idk bad writing because i havenât written a fic in like 2 years lol. maybe making out. y/n has gender neutral pronouns so go nuts guys!! y/n is a pothead
regulus black never had many friends. during mealtimes he would often sit alone in the library and study, or sit with a crowd of slytherins he kind of knew but didnât like. he was never able to formulate any sort of real connection between himself and someone else- until he was seated next to y/n in his 3rd year potions class.
âhiâ they would mutter, plopping down on their assigned seat next to regulus. he would never respond verbally, but he usually shot her an affirming look. but soon after these muttered hellos and affirming looks, regulus and y/n formed an intense rivalry.
maybe it began when y/n accidentally blew up something important they were being assessed on, or when regulus got them both detention by speaking back to a teacher- but they were officially rivals. this rivalry continued into their 5th year at hogwarts, becoming common knowledge amongst the student body and the teachers.
âwelcome back, 5th years. please take your assigned seats and weâll start with the lesson,â their professor announced. y/n sighed and walked away from their friends who were sitting a few desks in front of them and regulus. they took their seat and set up their side of the desk messily before resting their head in their palm and staring at the board.
regulus shot them a few glances, never alarming them or making it known to anyone else that he was looking. he was just so enchanted by what they got in their last test, not the way their face looked when they were focusing on something.
âwhat are you looking at?â they muttered, looking into regulusâ eyes with arched eyebrows and a hollow expression. âyouâve got something on your face.â he replied confidently, looking back to the board. âwait, where?â they whispered, pulling out a small pocket mirror. ânext to your noseâ regulus whispered back, concerned by how worried y/n was about the state of their face. âthereâs nothing there!â they said as they slammed the pocket mirror closed and adjusted their hair. regulus chuckled, raising his head confidently in response. âwankerâ y/n sighed, rolling their eyes and leaning back into their chair.
later throughout the lesson, y/n reached for an ingredient and was met with a brush of regulusâs hand. they instinctively pulled away, resting the hand in their lap in retaliation. regulus smirked, shooting y/n a teasing glance. âcanât keep your hands off me, canât you?â he laughed, continuing with the practical. âmy hands will be on your face in a second!â the replied, crossing their arms. regulus put a hand to his heart and scoffed. âmy point has been proven. are you in love with me or something?â he asked, earning a judgmental look from y/n. âi mean iâm going to slap youâ they assured him, shaking their head.
âi donât know what youâre talking about. you guys are delusional,â y/n stated confidently in response to their friends concerns about her relationship with regulus. âare you sure? you flirt every potions lessonâŠâ phyra replied as she arched her eyebrows and played with her dinner. y/n shook their head. âew, i would never!â
phyra and y/n walked around the campus for a while, exchanging secrets and sentiments about their classmates. as they tiptoed around the school grounds, y/n made eye-contact with a certain dark haired slytherin, who sent them a sarcastic wink and walked off towards the slytherin common room. y/no face turned a deep red as they pulled phyra away and continued walking. âokay, now youâre flirting outside of class? what is going on?!â she laughed, earning a prolonged âughâ from y/n. ânothing is going on, heâs just being an absolute dickâ they rolled their eyes as they walked alongside their friend. âi think you like him a tad bitâ she whispered playfully, alarming y/n. âdisgusting! i would never!â
looking back, maybe y/n did have some sort of feelings for regulus. something that maybe was a little different than hate or a strong dislike. they couldnât doubt that they were attracted to him, because everyone was. regulus had a strong jawline and confident eyes, it felt as though he was teasing you just by looking at you. y/n knew that this attraction was totally normal! the butterflies they felt whenever they saw him was just the manifestation of their mutual dislike.
regulus, surprisingly, was a little more in touch with his feelings. he was constantly flooded with his own feelings of attraction whenever their eyes met, making him regret even waking up that morning because he knew he would have to deal with these feelings in almost every single class.
âwhat are you doing up?â regulus inquired late at night, leaning up against the walls of the slytherin common room whilst y/n sat on a couch with âthe bell jarâ in one hand and a joint in the other. they shot a worried glance, trying to get rid of the smoke by whacking around the book in the air. ânothing!â
regulus smirked and walked over to where they were sitting, leaning over the frame of the couch and gesturing for the joint. y/n reluctantly handed it to him and sunk deeper into their cardigan. âyou do know you shouldnât smoke insideâ he grinned as he took inside the smoke and released it nonchalantly. âwhere else am i supposed to go?â they responded, closing their book. âoutside?â he replied, taking another hit of the joint. âhonestly, i would love to go outside but itâs colder than the north fucking pole out there!â y/n whisper shouted, gesturing for the joint. regulus chuckled as he took one more hit before passing it back to them.
âso is this what you do in your free time?â regulus inquired, leaning further of the frame of the court. y/n twisted their figure to face regulus. âmore or less, sometimes i donât readâ they replied, pushing back their hair. regulus stared into their eyes, pushing down a warmth in his cheeks. âwhy are you being nice to meâ they asked, resign their head on the top of the touch, close to where regulus was resting his. âyou let me have like, half of that jointâ he replied, smirking slightly. y/n nodded their head.
âyou know youâre pretty right?â he asked plainly, staring deeply into y/nâs eyes. âwhat? is that you or the mary jane talking?â y/n turned red and lifted their head up to turn their face away slightly from regulus. âwhichever you preferâ he responded calmly. y/n anxiously played with their hands, trying to avoid eye contact with regulus. âum, itâs getting lateâŠâ they muttered. regulus perked up, pushing back away from the couch and back to the wall he was leaning up against. ârightâ he affirmed, lifting up his hand slightly in agreement.
y/n picked up her book and handed the rest of the joint to regulus. he shot them a confused look as they reached out their hand to him. âkeep it, i have like 8 moreâ they assured, brushing their hand against his. regulus took it and stuffed it in the pocket of his pants. âi wasnât lying when i said you were prettyâ he assured them, crossing his arms. y/n shook their head, walking back to their dorm room.
regulus pushed back his hair and sighed, making his way back to his down as well. embarrassed by his attempts, he walked over to y/nâs dorm and knocked on their door. soon after knocking, the door opened up to welcome a flustered regulus and a confused y/n. âi like you?â he said with arched brows, holding the door open. âare you sure?â they replied, holding back a vibrant blush. âwhat, do you want me to prove it or something?â he said as his gaze moved away from y/n. y/n shrugged, moving closer towards regulus.
âmaybe i do, maybe i donâtâ they teased, before regulus lifted up their chin and kissed them softly. their eyes closed as their hands rested nearly on his body. he pulled away slowly after, stepping backwards slightly. âum, see you in potions.â he whispered anxiously before scattering way to his own dorm, leaving y/n to stand in the middle of their door frame, extremely confused.
