Yeah yeah Snape changed for Lily blah blah blah Regulus changed for his house elf! Regulus decided to defy the most powerful dark wizard in history because of his house-elf. Seriously! This is canon! He decided to leave after he saw how Voldemort was mistreating Kreacher! That is 1000x better than your Hollywood-inflated one-sided tragic romance story. Not to mention that when Regulus went to swap the horcrux with his locket, he drank the poison so that Kreacher wouldn’t have to. How very considerate of you Regulus. He could have easily ordered Kreacher to drink the poison and he could have done his deed unscathed. But no. He didn’t want Kreacher to get hurt so he drank the poison, went too close to the lake, and was dragged under. Because of a house-elf. Not because of a woman. A house-elf. That is just so wonderfully innocent, it’s heartbreaking. Don’t show me Snape uncharacteristically hugging a dead body in a scene that wasn’t in the book! Show me the canon scene of Regulus being tortured by the poison that he took so that Kreacher wouldn’t have to. Between the two of them, the second one is way more likely to reduce me to a bawling baby that’s curled in the corner. Don’t show me The Prince’s Tale. Show me the King’s tale!
