A Headcanon Meme



There's always more to your characters than you'll ever play out. So why not share a few of those facts, figures and back story that you've established?


How to:
1. Comment, with a list of head canon facts on your character. (Arbitrarily set at 10. More or less is fine.)
2. Rinse, repeat?
3. Questions from other muns are of course, welcome.

Regulus Black || Harry Potter || Some of the headcanons can be a bit triggery

1. Regulus meant to die in the cave as a form of suicide. It wasn't the first time he had thoughts of it either.

2. He's as mentally stable as most of his family (meaning not at all) but his insanity tends to hurt himself more than anyone else.

3. He has a bit of a inferiority complex, is convinced that his parents's abusive nature is meant to 'fix' them, tends to be dependent on loved ones, and has trust/abandonment issues (especially concerning Sirius). When older, he can be very promiscuous and affection starved.

4. He blames himself for anything bad that happens regardless of if it had anything to with him or not (e.g. Sirius running away) and will think if he had done something/been better, the outcome would have been different.

5. He's not as smart or as powerful as Sirius and struggled in a few of his classes at Hogwarts (Potions and Transfiguration mainly). But he's a natural flyer, brilliant at Charms, and if he had ever had a chance, he'd have excelled at Magical Beasts (but Mother said such a class was beneath wizards of their stature.)

6. He has trouble sleeping by himself a lot of the time and, when younger, would try and sneak into Sirius's bed with him if he could/was allowed. Even when he got older, he preferred to sleep with someone else rather than be alone.

7. The first (and possibly only) person he ever fell in love with was Barty Crouch jr. Narcissa is the only girl he ever had a crush on and would still do most anything to make sure she's happy.

8. He hates being compared to Sirius because he always seems to fall short - he's constantly told he's not as talented, smart, or handsome as his brother was. The constant comparisons got worse after Sirius left because of the expectation to not only replace Sirius but to be better than him.

9. He had a half kneazle named Samson. He was big, fluffy, and gray and always watched Sirius closely.

10. Regulus is very fond of the strange black dog he meets on the Hogwart's grounds sometimes and will feed it if he has any food on hand.

This is so beautiful, it makes me want to cry.

I wonder, though, does reg know that the dog he plays with is really his older brother?

I wouldn't think so. Reg just saw him as a big friendly dog that must have wandered up from the village.
