ahhh i thought this could help some people about how i imagine regulus! before & after he goes to the cave :)
AU where Regulus is a natural Legilimens. He just doesn't react to reading people minds and stay silent most of the time. He get overwhelmed easily in crowded so he avoids them. Everyone sees him as a timid little boy until they spend time with him. Then he's spewing every dark thought they ever have as if though he uncovered it by "investigating" them. They think he knows all and is a dark lord in the making when in reality Regulus has to sit though hours of his classmatea thoughts. If he has to listen to James Potter swoon over Lily Evans while At the same time listen Sirius weird crush on the professor he's going to scream. Not to mention everyone is thirsty for either him or his brother and he CAN HEAR ALL OF IT.
one day he snaps and just says “shut up!” and the persons like “i ain’t say anything 😳” and he’s like “uhhuh. sure you didn’t you trick ass bitch”
i vibe with ikea regulus so much (love that idea so much) but as a barista lemme just say regulus gives me major barista vibes. like he enjoys making drinks but also he wants to beat tf out certain customers. he also definitely complains about the music playing in cafe 24/7 and will hop on aux as soon as his boss leaves. he definitely drinks iced drinks all year round. and while some would say he drinks black iced coffee i would disagree. he definitely drinks iced lavender lattes with oat milk or cold brew with oat milk and vanilla.
regulus starts spelling peoples names wrong on purpose and starts to hate mainstream music with a passion
au where Naruto reads Jiraiya's will and realizes he's only getting 30% of Jiraiya's icha icha money and the rest of it is going to some girl on onlyfans

regulus just pulling up to history of magic and shooing binns away as he takes over the lesson. “I’ve provided you with my own mini textbook as hogwarts lacks content about house elfs and their history, a very important history- No avery i don’t care if your father says they’re purpose is to wipe your ass or whatever open the damn textbook!”
💀💀 ‘purpose is to wipe your ass’ lmaoo
also i can’t tell if this is like in harry’s era or if it’s back when regulus was a teenager like he just gets up mid-lesson and is like yknow what i’m the teacher now
a full set of kids in the 90s.
let's talk about how rin nohara died entirely for male angst even tho she had more character potential than either of her teammates
