[22.03] Hey! funny seeing you here
[22.14] <Message read>
[22.16] You know it’s one thing to ignore me in person but now this, come on reg you’re killing me here.
[22.30] FirstlyI didn’t ignore you, I was at work and I didn’t feel like talking, and secondly I barely recognised you.
[22.32] Ahh fair enough then I’ll let you off this time :)
[22.32] So what are you doing on a dating app? I thought you had plenty of attention
[22.34] Would I be on this dreaded app if I did, besides you don’t know anything about me so who are you to judge.
[22.36] Okay, that’s fair. I shouldn’t have assumed. But hey, maybe this is my chance to actually get to know you.
[22.37] It would make Sirius far to happy
[22.39] What do you mean?
[22.43] It’s just that Sirius always brings up how you’re single and, well, apparently attractive. I think he might be trying to play matchmaker here.
[22.45] Wait, seriously? Sirius has been trying to set us up? That’s… unexpected. But also, kind of funny.
[22.46] Has he mentioned anything to you?
[22.47] He’s dropped a few hints here and there, but nothing too obvious. I always thought he was just messing around, though.
[22.49] I mean I did have a bit of a thing for you when I was younger
[22.50] Oh.. this is gold truly the regulus black king of being an asshole toward me had a CRUSH on me.
[22.50] Just so you know I’m never going to let you live this down ;)
[22.52] I fear I’ve made a great mistake
***
[22.55] Padfoot you’re not going to believe who I was just talking to
[22.52] Oh prongs! Has some young maiden swept you away from me 🥹
[22.54] Oh its much better than that I fear I’ve stole the heart of your one and only brother
[22.54] REGULUS??? My Regulus? My brooding, impossibly dramatic little brother who pretends he’s too good for human connection?
[22.55] The very same. And you’re going to die when you hear this—he just admitted to having a crush on me when we were younger.
[22.55] YOU’RE LYING. No. No, this is the best thing that has ever happened to me. I knew it. I KNEW it.
[22.55] Oh, and by the way he’s also onto you. Suspects you’ve been playing matchmaker.
[22.56] "Suspects"?? Please, I’ve been orchestrating this for months. Took you both long enough.

[23.02] Tell me why I just received I message from my brother saying ‘omg I’m so happy for you and James, I’ve always wanted another brother 😁’ care to explain?
[23.03] …Okay, so maybe I let it slip. But in my defense, his reaction was hilarious.
[23.04] You’ve officially made my life harder. Congratulations.
[23.13] I knew telling you was a mistake.
[23.17] Oh, come on, Reg. You can’t expect me to just ignore this. This is golden.
[23.19] If I disappear mysteriously, tell everyone it was YOUR fault.
[23.19] Noted. But before you go into hiding, can I get the chance to change your mind about me?
[23.22] You really are relentless, aren’t you?
[23.25] What can I say? I love a challenge.
