There was that one time a giant spider got into the house and everyone was screaming to kill it and you took him outside with a cup...?” “Well. What did that spider ever do to me?" James dropped his gaze. An ugly pause. Then: "You must think I'm a monster." “Hey.” Regulus holds the sugar in surrender, “I’m not a cop. I’m a diabetic… A diabetic with skewed morals.

James gaze drops down to Regulus’ hands, as he unscrews the lid, spoons two sugars into his cup, eyes stalking the way Regulus pours the milk and begins stirring, with a look so mindful he's like a ghost of the guy who opened that door for him, all those years ago. It makes Regulus straightens a little, flushing, but he doesn’t shake, no, not once. or James Potter shoots a CEO, and Regulus wants to thank him for his service.
