Chapter 120 – Seventh Year – Thunder

James appears with a prominent black eye from his fight with Regulus on the train. In private, James explains that Regulus and his Slytherin friends confronted him about Lily Evans being Head Girl, using anti-Muggleborn slurs. The situation highlights the growing divide between Sirius and his brother as Regulus becomes more deeply involved with pure-blood supremacist ideology and Death Eater sympathizers at Hogwarts.
