James Potter Remuslupin - Tumblr Posts
this is soooooooo fucking pure that could kill to see this with my eyes
raksha bandhan headcanon!
indian!james potter had no sister and would always get a bit jealous and unhappy seeing his aunts tying his father a rakhi and then asking him for gifts
though that was only until his third year
euphemia, accidentally, mentioned in the regular letters she sent to sirius that on the coming sunday, james' mood may not be high because of rakhi
sirius had no idea what 'rakhi' was. so he spent a HUGE amount of time in the library to find out
finally on the day raksha bandhan he woke up early and started bouncing on james' bed, shouting "give me my gift!"
once james woke up, sirius took out a rakhi from his pocket
james was shocked
sirius tied the rakhi on james' wrist and said "now where's my gift? hun?"
but as soon as he saw the overwhelmed look on james' face, he added, "oh please don't tell me only sisters can tie rakhi! i will go and wear a skirt if that's the issue. and i worked hard on transfiguring that snake, we made last week, which shouted 'slytherins slithers into their mum's lap, and all they say is a piece of crap' into this beautiful rakhi saying 'my brother rocks, evans is yet to be shocked' "
james hugged sirius tight and whispered, "happy raksha bandhan"
and they spent the whole day with james pampering sirius and just before going to bed james told sirius, "you know you should wear a skirt next year, maybe then remus will start acting on his thoughts about you and something will finally happen between you two"
james slept peacefully but sirius lay awake thinking, he really wanted to act on what james said
