Peter And Remus Weren’t Described To “tag Along For No Reason”

jegulus/fanon wolfstar shippers when someone critiques their ship: um you must be allergic to fun huh. canon doesn't exist why should i care that it's not realistic. they don't even have real personalities anyway, i can say what i want. let people live it's just a ship it's not that serious! you don't belong in the fandom if you don't ship them tho, it's basically law lol. you sound homophobic rn hating on a gay ship. just go back to hp since you love jkr so much!!

these same shippers when they see prongsfoot: oh! you shouldn't be allowed to ship them actually. so...you like incest? idk guys this is taking it a bit too far.. ok but in canon they're just really close friends so idk where you got this from. i thought we all agreed on wolfstar?? this is cute but replace sirius with his brother, james clearly isn't wearing his glasses lol. this is hurting my eyes and it's low-key disgusting why would you like this??? um alright but ur joking right?? you can't actually ship this..

"Wolfstar would never happen during Hogwarts." I say. People are boo-ing. They want me off stage. "Wolfstar would only happen in adulthood if James died. As the last two survivors trope. In no universe that James is alive would Sirius end up with Remus." I continue. The crowd gets worse. "She's right!" I hear. I turn my head before leaving and see Remus fucking Lupin, who in fact is aware that he can't have Sirius in any universe where James breathes.

psychological thriller where all a cyborg’s human parts are slowly replaced with metal like a personified ship of theseus

my friend wrote a paper on tlt concerning gender, queerness, and ecofeminism and it broke my brain

tldr he outlined how the present necro/cav dynamic (eg. how cav is subservient to their necro and romantic relationships between the two parties is taboo) is a result of johns implicit misogyny he projected onto earth/alecto; how in this sans-misogyny world queerness/homophobia still exists in necro/cav ships

so ive been reanalyzing all the tlt relationships from the lense of necroxnecro cavxcav = hetero and necroxcav = queer and OH MY GOD

griddlehark = queer

lobotomized harrow was replacing her queer relationship (cav!gideon) with a coworker hetero one (cav!ortus)

giddianthe = hetero

kirianthe = queer

tridentaricest = queer, but as corona was “necro-passing” it could be BUTCHFEMME REALNESS

idk how to classify paul…

James didn’t want to take the shots Sirius offered him. His brain was already working at a solid 0.5 synapses per minute and alcohol would blur his thoughts even further.

He wanted to think on this. Puzzle it over, pull it apart, follow all his options around and around like they were the tiny footsteps on the Marauder’s Map.

Forget his whole plan, ignoring Sirius, kissing a random girl. Being straight.

Something much more important had entered his field of vision and he was locked in like a homing missile.

Sirius was gay. Why didn’t it click? Was it the plethora of mystery women he’d bragged about bagging? Or was it James’ own commitment to wallowing, to hunting something he could never achieve. His own marriage to the game, his own boredom of winning.

Would this change his plans? It didn’t have to, logically. But something deep down in James’ gut told him that this needed to change everything. He needed it to change everything.

He was thinking for too long, no doubt boring holes into Sirius’ forehead with his scrutinizing eyes and furrowed brows, and that wasn’t a nice way to react to your best friend coming out to you.

So James decided to be a good boy and take his shots.

“We don’t have to go anywhere.” he said, wiping smears of rum from his lips. “If you like it here, then so do I.”

Turns out the scary part wasn’t admitting to himself he was gay, or even telling his long term girlfriend. It was being gay, existing undeniably in a gay space, with his gay best friend that he was in love with standing in front of him, watery eyeliner framing his perfect eyes, biting his lip, buff arms hanging languidly from the liquor at his sides.

Sirius was simultaneously the most beautiful and horrifying thing he’d ever seen in his life.

And it was time to be a Gryffindoor.

James grabbed one of Sirius’ arms and swiveled them towards the dance floor, the disky-ball Sirius had mentioned sending stars twirling over everything.

He took a deep breath, letting the liquor cloud his whirling mind, letting it take the wheel. “Teach me,” he said. “How a bloke dances in a gay club.”

Sirius had gotten good at faking it. He’d gotten good at the smiles and the flirting and the hinting at women sharing his bed. He mentioned the clubs and changed the pronouns and he got good at it.

He got good at lying to James. He’d never wanted to be good at lying to James.

He’d gotten so good at it that when James and Lily broke up and James needed an outlet to “let loose” that he’d turned to Sirius and asked where he normally went.

And, of course, Sirius had given the name of the only bar he could think of.

One he hadn’t been to in a year, which could be in his best interest now as hopefully none of his old hookups would be there. But still.

He’d very much given the name of a gay bar to newly singly James Potter.

He debated calling in help but Remus wouldn’t understand the urgency. Had never understood why Sirius didn’t go out with it and tell James he was gay. James would understand, Remus was certain. It wouldn’t change anything.

But Remus didn’t know about the countless practice kisses. The times they’d share beds to stave off the cold. Didn’t know that the only reason James couldn’t see Sirius’ feelings was that he’d never thought them possible.

Sirius was a womanizer.

He’d carefully made sure James knew that. Believed that.

Because otherwise, his friend might see. Might see the arms thrown over shoulders, the lingering hugs, the blushes, the smile he couldn’t control at hearing Lily had finally left him.

Things that a straight best friend might get away with. Things that a queer friend wouldn’t.

But then he’d gone and given James the name of London’s number one gay night club.

And he was fucked.

So I have a question for my followers: are there any conspiracy theories you’re 100% convinced are real

the fact that lily and james BOTH chose sirius to be the godfather to their only son, knowing that they were in a war, hunted by voldemort, and would likely die.

like the bond is already there between all three of them. prongsfoot is basically half canon, jily is canon, and lilypad exchange letters + have a deep amount of trust for the other

jily and prongsfoot are the only agreed upon soulmates in the marauders canon (whether ypu believe it romantic or platonic)

it would be such a natural, believable evolutiom for jilypad to exist

but no, we ship jily with their best man/best friend/godfathers blood supremacist brother whom they never canonically interacted with

we ship the muggle born and blood traitor with the death eater

over the blood traitor black who they both loved

why ship jegulily when jilypad is right there

Imagine you’re some little evil woman sitting in Hades’ throne room when Orpheus walks in to make a deal to get Eurydice back, and Hades is like “yeah ok, just don’t look back otherwise she has to stay here” then walks out of the room. Almost immediately after hearing the conditions, Orpheus breaks his own neck so that it is physically impossible for him to turn it, and then demands that you gouge out his eyes for good measure. Eurydice then gets really upset because she’s convinced this is a sign that Orpheus hates her and never wants to see her again, and Orpheus is completely convinced that this was a normal and logical thing to do.

You are literally the only person in the universe who recognizes this as an act of love. They both then insult you to your face for thinking this is anything other than very normal (Orpheus), or petty hatred (Eurydice).

You are Ianthe Tridentarius.

no one asked me to explain this but i want to

plato has a quote “opinion is the medium between knowledge and ignorance”

in the pilot episode, misty receives a prank call from some girls accusing her of doing anal, to which she responds quoting plato. or rather, misquoting plato

she says “opinion is the WILDERNESS between knowledge and ignorance”

i see this as intentional on the writers part since the word “wilderness” holds a lot of weight in the yellowjackets universe. the girls use “wilderness” to refer to the force/deity they encounter in the wild and blame for all the sinister things that take place/that they do

many people theorize whether or not the “wilderness” is supernatural or if it is a figment of the girls imagination that they use to cope with what happened in the canadian rockies

i argue that the show will never reveal the answer. the question itself is the main theme of the show, and the writers toy with us using plausible deniability with any supernatural event (lottie’s schizophrenia, tai’s genetic mental health issue (??), etc.)

i believe this because of the aforementioned misty line; the writers told us plainly that this “wilderness” the girls believe in is a result of the blind spot between ignorance and knowledge about what is really going on

we will never know if the “wilderness” is real or not, because the only thing that is real is that the yellowjackets did what they had to do to survive and now they have to live with it

i want to give the Yellowjackets writers kudos for dropping the line “opinion is the wilderness between knowledge and ignorance” in the pilot episode

and i want to send my condolences that it has gone so far unnoticed

phenomenal theme foreshadowing

its 2025 and the marauders fandom needs to TRULY be ship/let ship. kittywater is perfect, gilderat or wtv idek wtf it is but im here for it, we need to stop saying "ship/let ship EXCEPT... " like ppl don't have 2 love jegulus or wolfstar. heck, i like wolfstar but even if i didnt that should be okay! we need to branch out w peculiar ships! remus x some1 uncommon!, sirius x jamess (the way ppl hate on it is crazy!), peter x more combos cuz being fat doesn't mean being ugly??? (I KNOW thats why sum ppl make him ace oml!) like theres sm characters but so few "accepted" ships!! kittywater is the start of smth great i swear

i agree! crackships are so fun

marauders fandom is so pretentious about their ships and characters as if we didnt make up 90% of them
