YES, my favourite thing about TLT is that ALL the characters are described as kinda ugly in some way (except corona and alecto)
sometimes I'll see fanart of harrow where she's like a sexy bone goddess. NO. it's very important to convey that harrow is a bone gremlin, and the only sexy thing about her is how emotionally unavailable she is
”can mutuals dm” my mutuals can suck the marrow from my bones
your conscious movements have already been planned by your brain milliseconds before you decided to make them :)
they had people make random arm movements and report when exactly they decided to make them, all while recording their brain activity
i think this says some really neat stuff about how we view consciousness. esp in joint with the fact that damaging certain areas of your brain can change your personality fundamentally

”Oh, come on, is he completely thick?" James grumbles, a bit louder than he probably should. "You could answer that just by using logic."
They have a Transfiguration class with Slytherin, and McGonagall has asked Mulciber one of the exam questions. He's been staring into space in front of him for a minute now, continually coming up with more and more unbelievable answers. McGonagall is waiting — Mulciber promised her that if she takes him for NEWT level, he'll become the top of the class.
"His brain's just gone from disuse" says Sirius, leaning back in his chair and crossing his arms. "Oi, Mulciber!" he continues in a whisper. "Would you donate your head for a Quidditch match? You're not using it anyway."
Laughter spreads from the Gryffindor side, and McGonagall turns her head towards Sirius. Mulciber is about to say something, but the professor stops him with a look:
"Mr. Mulciber, think twice before you start a quarrel."
"As a class, we've pretty much figured out he's got nothing to think with ," Sirius adds quietly, yet loud enough for everyone to hear.
From behind, a weary voice of Remus goes, "Here we go…"
"Mr. Black," the professor's eyebrow menacingly raises. "Do you consider yourself the smartest?"
"Me?" Sirius feigns surprise. "Not me. James," he nods in his direction. "And you, Professor."
James laughs, but McGonagall, apparently, is not amused by this statement.
"Sometimes I think you've reached the limits of your insolence, but you outdo yourself every time, Mr. Black."
"Actually, that's a compliment to you, Professor," James chimes in. "We even composed a song for you yesterday."
"Would you like us to sing, Professor?" Sirius picks up.
Before McGonagall can react, the boys start singing in unison:
"The best professor in the world is Professor McGonaga…"
In the next second, both are pulled out of the room by a spell, and the door slams shut loudly behind them.
"Seems she's not in the mood today," James says through laughter, as Sirius has fallen on top of him. He laughs, burying his face in James's neck, trying to muffle the loudness of his voice.
"Well," Sirius looks up at James with an intense gaze. "Since we've got some free time, what shall we do?"
"The dorm's free," replies James, with a slight smile.
"Reading my mind, Prongs."

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)
hihi. kill me
Combining my two favorite things to ease my brain through it’s love of prongsfoot but desperate NEED for a jily endgame and saying that prongsfoot mutually breaks up because James comes out to sirius as transfem. Sirius is like “oh great now we have to break up!” And James is like mildly scared that he’s transphobic but sirius is like “I’m GAY!” and then they’re besties again and wlw jily ensued
During the 4th book:
Ron: Sirius-
Sirius, indignant: James used to call me that
Harry: That's because it's your bloody name
Hermione:
Gender is not the same as sex. Gender is what you identify with, while sex is what Sirius Black is having with James Potter tonight. Stay tuned.
🌟🐕🦌Calling all Prongsfoot enthusiasts and questioning shippers - with or without artistic talents!🦌🐕🌟
Get ready for April 2025 and the first (of hopefully many) annual Draw Prongsfoot Badly Challenge!
The concept has been shamelessly stolen (with permission from the lovely @julcheninred) from the Draw Drarry Badly Challenge - if you missed it, go check it out - you won't regret it!
"But I can't draw!" I hear you say... Awesome! Then this is just the fest for you!
"But I don't have time!" Great! Spend 30 seconds on the back of your exam paper, coffee-stained napkin, or meeting agenda. Bad art doesn't take time.
"But I have no ideas!" Draw a scene from your favourite fic or recreate a meme. Just make sure to do it Badly!
"Excuse me, I happen to already be a well-renowned Prongsfoot artist. Do you expect ME to draw Badly?" YES! Draw with your non-dominant hand, wear a blindfold or try your hand at clay sculpturing. I believe in you!!
The rules of the challenge are simple:
Anyone can join! Even if you've never held a pen or only have access to a stick and a puddle of mud
Any media is allowed! It doesn't have to be a drawing if you'd rather knit or stack cheerios into the shape of James's broomstick - as long as you made it and it's Bad!
Anything goes! Make your art silly, funny, wholesome, romantic, sappy, smutty or bloody - as long as it's Bad (and please apply appropriate trigger warnings)
Post your Bad Prongsfoot Art with the tag 'draw prongsfoot badly 2025' and @ this blog - then I'll be ready to smash the reblog button. No upper limit on how many submissions you can make!
Most important of all: Have fun! And remember to show some love to your fellow Bad Prongsfoot Artists
The Challenge will run from April 1-30 - I'm excited to see lots of terrible art!!
Lots of love from Maddie / @lovelymasks ❤️🦌🐕❤️
Tagging some people to get the ball rolling - please help spread the word! @diamondmeadow @sorenphelps @mycupofrum @lilacella @fiendishfyre @cassiaratheslytherpuff @jmagnabo92 @arliedraws @albi-bumblebee @lostwriter--xx3 @rosemelodyshah @roalinda @in-flvx @plecotusauritus @goldenlionprince @eastwindmlk @bullets-from-another-dimension @neverenoughmarauders @forestdeath1 @onehundredflamingos @jaylienpotter @heartofspells @strugglequill @gracelesslady23 @resident-gay-bitch @cami-chats @nyaightlight @groundzero-v @padfootastic @siriuslyasorceress
