Do not pity the dead Harry, pity the living, and above all, pity those who believe that Sirius Black was short, stupid, overly dramatic, obsessed with his looks, weepy, couldn't perform regular functions without help, and needed to be protected by his boyfriend
i am so in love with taissa turner, she’s actually the realest yellowjacket
mean femmes FTW
toxic prongsfoot bfs where sirius never feels insecure ever (cuz he’s better than everyone, duh) except he only shows it around james (because james is his equal and he matters so it actually means something; also he knows james wont tell anyone cuz hes like sirius’ whipped puppy) and james fucking loves it, gets off on it, cuz it means hes the specialist little boy
sirius *bullying remus about crying*: you wouldn’t see a Black doing that shit
James *recalling back to fifth year when sirius cried about the pressures of being an heir*: pfft, yeah, wimp! hey, sirius. broom closet?
they were dicks in hogwarts, your honour 🙏 they bullied people to impress each other (and to feel worthy of each other)
i am an upstanding citizen
(i dont tag the couple pairing in my throuple posts, and any ship content i make i tag with the ship for people to filter out if they so wish)
theyre gay your honour
jilypad but james is an attention whore and starts pouting and throwing a fit if they both arent touching him 100% of the time during sex
sirius and lily give any amount of affection to each other and hes like “what about. me. :(“
“james is the sun” yes, as in hes flashy and burns people for fun and when he finally does die everybody gets blown up
girl help they're purifying my favs
i like jegulus only in the context of: prongsfoot is well established and reg, whos been pining after james, is bitter that he yet again fell short to his perfect older brother
the "I'm not a drinker myself" to gradually becoming an alcoholic to numb out the pain pipeline
the "I don't want them to change me. turn me into something I'm not" to being turned into a mutt version of himself pipeline
the "I do everything in my power to protect my sister" to losing her anyway pipeline
i think we make non-death eater pure bloods too “nice”
andromeda can love ted and not be prejudiced against him for being muggleborn, but still have some anti-muggle/squib biases. i firmly believe shes still a black through and through. she can be progressive and still carry the pride she was raised with. personally, my adromeda thinks she better than everybody, and sees a “proper” way to life. eg wanting tonks to keep her hair natural colours and her face human and use the right fork for salad godammit! she can accept her werewolf son in law but also be a difficult mother!
same goes for sirius. its canon he thinks hes better than everybody and can get away with anything. he bullied/pranked kids at hogwarts not because he was blood purist, but because he was the popular guy.
even the blood purist blacks. i think they refused to join volemort because he was some low-born wannabe sacred 28 (half blood secretly). theyre old money. theyre not on the streets killing muggleborn wizards, theyre removing squibs from the family tree and moving laws so pure bloods have more sway. they dont rally against muggles because they see them as ants.
even james’ parents. they werent blood purists, but that doesnt mean they were perfect parents. james in hogwarts was very mich the product of two eldery parents who treat their little miracle like he owns the world. i know theyd get brought into the principal’s office in kindergarten because james threw sand at a bunch of girls and pulled their hair (cuz they didnt pay attention to him) and they were like “ummm no that doesnt sound like james, our baby wouldnt do that” and then theyd get hik ice cream after
