James Is Greedy With Love, Hes All Grabby Hands And Bite Marks. He Was Raised Generously, He Could Play

james is greedy with love, he’s all grabby hands and bite marks. he was raised generously, he could play rough with his toys and they would be fixed the next day.

regulus is gentle in love, he’s all cheek kisses and hair-playing. he was raised to be delicate, his dolls were porcelain and ready to cut him if he loved too hard.

Jegulily raising Harry is one of my fav things, esp with little baby Harry and Lily tolerating no shit from her anxious partners

Like: Lily handing baby Harry over to Regulus for the first time after he spent the last month of her pregnancy silently stressing about how awful a father he was going to be because he was scared of frightening the baby or brainwashing him, just like his parents did to him. He keeps it quiet because obviously Lily’s struggles and needs are greater and he would rather die than take the attention away from his wife when she's supposed to be the important one. He tries his best to hide it but they both notice. When Lily is recovering from birth, Regulus tells her how proud he is and then chooses to make himself busy by gathering things for her and making sure she's as comfortable as she can be but they both know he's somewhat stalling having to interact with the baby. James holds Harry while she gets some rest and eats something and the two of them sit together cooing at him and guessing whose features they think he'll grow to have. Meanwhile, Regulus is fussing over the flowers in the vase on the bedside table.

They both try to lure him over, James tries to rub his back to calm him down and make him sit but in the end it's Lily that gets through to him. James cares a lot, he'll say what he thinks Reg or Lily want to hear bc it makes them happy, but Lily is different. She rarely says things she doesn't wholeheartedly mean. So when she demands that he sit down at her side and take a minute to calm down, he does. He starts apologising for stressing her out when she's vulnerable and tired and she just hands Harry over, knowing he'll instinctively grab anything she hands to him. She wouldn't have done it if she wasn't completely sure he could manage it but it still seems to come out of nowhere to him and James. She hands him over and Reg just goes into shock, looking down at the little face of his baby for the first time.

They sit in silence for a while as he holds him, still having no idea what to do. Harry doesn't wake up or make a single sound. Only when he needs to be fed does Lily take him back and James moves over to rest a hand on the shoulders of each of his partners, almost brought to tears by the beauty of the moment.

Can I try again?

i will never shut up about how the duarte sisters are ALL so 'family line' by conan gray coded omg

My father never talked a lot, He just took a walk around the block 'Til all his anger took a hold of him and then he'd hit - is basically madoc

My mother never cried a lot She took the punches, but she never fought 'Til she said, "I'm leaving, and I'll take the kids" so she did - EVA DUARTE

Scattered 'cross my family line I'm so good at telling lies, That came from my mother's side - Jude and Taryn can both lie because they are mortals like their mom

God, I have my father's eyes, but my sister's when I cry i can run, but I can't hide from my family line - the eyes part can be applicable to both Jude and Vivi tbh because Jude comes to a realisation later in the books that she became just like madoc bc of his training, 'eyes are the windows to soul' after all, but in a more physical senses, Vivi has her dad's eyes.

Its hard to put it into words how the holidays will always hurt, i watch the fathers with their little girls, and wonder what I did to deserve this - Jude, Vivi and Taryn not coming terms with the fact that their dad Justin is gone forever.

How could you hurt a little kid?I can't forget, I can't forgive you, cause now I'm scared that everyone I love will leave me - VIVIENNE DUARTEE

Oh, all that I did to try to undo It all of my pain and all your excuses i was a kid but I wasn't clueless (Someone who loves you wouldn't do this)All of my past, I tried to erase It but now I see, would I even change it? - Jude having a traumatic past but also mentioned that without it, she wouldn't have been as strong as she was

Might share a face and share a last name, but(We are not the same) - Taryn and Jude on their differences as twins

okay bear with me but what if jegudoralily. what if pandora/lily/james/regulus. what then huh. what then!

My home, my heart. <3
