only the brave by soulmussa is the fanfiction of my dreams. i savoured every second of it and now that I'm finished, i don't know what to do with myself.
right. since there's too many amazing beautiful scenes, and also because my brain is already overflowing with content, these are the standouts.
REGULUS. ohhhh his competence is so hot. but he's also so soft. the amount of internal dialogue he has compared to what other people see is so great, he needs someone to understand him completely and he got that!!! and james. ahhh im usually not that into him but he's just so good??! I'm loving the lack of miscommunication we usually get in wolfstar fics
regulus and remus being straight up attracted to each other will never not be funny to me. like brothers in christ we get it. and don't even mention barty. he's just so ??? unhinged ??? idk how he does it. and the in love, absolute sweetheart evan is so into everything he does. they're so perfect im crying. i love how these characters have no personality in canon, and everyone just agreed that they're like this, each of their characters are so well developed and fit together, and i can have hilarious and beautiful scenes to swoon over.
like i love how sirius is so dramatic and unashamed to do whatever the fuck, and remus is always so done but is deep down a bad boy. wolfstar and jegulus just. cannot keep their hands to themselves. i hope they someday learn some restraint because lord have mercy, one day your brains are going to stop working entirely from all the short circuiting that happens the moment your boyfriend enters your line of vision.
anyway mwah best fic ever, im not getting over it for at least another day
but also why did marauders ao3 authors collectively decide that 500k+ is the right length for fics??? because firstly it takes so long to read, and then i can't be bothered to reread it to revisit all the good parts so then i just have to fulfil my brain by watching tiktoks and scrolling pinterest
alright let's end with some pretty pictures of reggie because he's rapidly becoming one of my favourites. i didn't even like timothee chalamet before jegulus fics but like he is the perfect regulus, and lowkey does look like an angel...
