pandora & regulus head canons

pandora was not someone who’s easy to ignore, and neither is reg
regulus didn’t want to stand out so becoming friends with pandora lovegood seemed like the worst idea ever
but pandora was persistent and the first one to actually make regulus laugh after a long time of keeping everything to himself
imagine a small 11 year old boy with dark hair and a constant frown on his face — next to him a girl with white curls, sparkling eyes and a huge smile on her face (pandora also had a big tooth gap)
like rain and sunshine, how could two people that different become friends?
they attended the same astrology, herbology and divination class and since pandora decided to get closer to her seat neighbor, they spent a lot of time studying, doing homework and even spending their freetime together
regulus hesitated in the beginning but after getting to know his new friend better, he was so thankful to have her
pandora was a great listener and although regulus didn’t really enjoy talking about his emotions, pandora made him feel safe to do so
pandora was very good at inventing things (especially spells and she knew she wanted to do it as her profession) so she figured out a way to communicate with regulus, no matter how far apart they were. it was a simple necklace (that could be hidden with another spell): it projected the face of the owner of the other necklace into the air and they were able to speak for a few minutes even when regulus had to do it in secret when he had to return to his family
another spell they invented is one to put on and remove nail polish, it was one of the small things they shared and enjoyed together. every sunday they met up and chose the “colour of the week”
the two of them shared their secrets with each other and regulus didn’t trust anyone like he trusted her. so the last thing regulus thought about was his best friend while clinging to the piece of jewelry wrapped around his neck
pandora on the other hand was heartbroken after finding out about regulus’ death, it was hard for her to just move on and live without him, they were soulmates and understood each other on a level no one else could grasp
she also had a hard time accepting regulus being gone so suddenly, so she asked xenophilius if he would be okay with regulus being the godfather of their unborn child. her husband just looked at her sadly, took her hand and had to explain to her that he wasn’t there anymore, over and over again
after luna was born, pandora told her daughter never ending stories about her godfather. luna had a good understanding of death despite being so young and she was so proud to be his goddaughter. after pandora’s death, the stories stopped. xenophilius didn’t want to remember and so luna forgot about the man she admired so much. soon, regulus fell into oblivion.
