BRO LET THE MARAUDERS CHARACTERS BE UGLY
I'm so serious about this plsss they cannot all possibly be conventionally attractive
Genuinely though most fanart of the marauders characters is like INSANELY different from what they look like in canon,, which in a lot of cases is fine like I think making the marauders cast more diverse is a lot more fun and less boring and uh yes I'm a fan but this means more than making them different races/ethnicities this means making them different body types and different facial features
Because even though we pride ourselves on making the fandom super diverse and shit we still make all the characters adhere to like eurocentric beauty standards, and the only characters that don't look like fucking super models are characters the fandom generally dislikes.
a lot of times fanart is the same exact button nose, more like white facial features and the only difference is that some characters are darker than others and MAYBE they'll have different hair textures.
Just because a character isn't attractive to you doesn't mean they're suddenly a bad character or objectively unattractive.
plssss can we start diversifying the marauders cast (also I'm not gonna like beat people up if they keep drawing all the characters the same like you choose how you engage in fandom I'm just personally tired of this)
“the gaylors are going to have a field day with this”
so you agree, it seems gay? it’s queer coding? you see it too.
"james shoves all his feelings down because he always has to be the happy comforting guy for his friends"
james potter would slam the dorm door, dramatically fall onto his bed, and exclaim his woes as loudly as he can to garner his friend's attention. james potter would write to his parents daily about every little thing that happened, every thought and feeling he had. james potter would have a diary where he confesses everything in & then proceed to purposefully leave it out so his friends read it
“but—but—mace windu was soooo mean to anakin🥺🥺he didn’t let him be a master🥺🥺”
buddy I wouldn’t care if mace windu hit anakin with a chair.
Tamsyn Muir: “Here's a series about how a man's vindictiveness dooms the universe, all because his trauma left him incapable of believing in forgiveness over vengeance. As contrast, the protag in the first book reflects something closer to divinity by extending her abuser grace so that she can repent and change, and the protag of the third book begs her brother to not flatten a planet in revenge after having experienced forgiveness.”
too many TLT fans: “yass can't wait for my girlies to kill God!!!”
My first submission to @drawprongsfootbadly except I got carried away and actually put effort into it 😭 I’ll do worse-better next time
Inspired by this picture lol
listen, the “lottie isn’t callie/wilderness baby’s stepdad, shes the dad who stepped up” jokes are funny, but she’s really shown zero parental behaviour towards either of them. all she’s done is cross boundaries and enforce an uncomfortable amount of ownership over shauna’s kids. it’s creepy, and i’m afraid for callie.
shauna’s kids seem like her pet project, her sacrifice to the wilderness.
we see lottie constantly looking for a connection to the wilderness. first she was the yellowjacket’s guru, but once she lost that she looked to travis to reconvene with ‘It’. she tells him verbatim that she lost her ability to speak to It, and soon after forces him to take more psilocybin.
she was attached to wilderness baby because she deemed it important to the wilderness and needed to insert herself in that importance. when she ‘mourns’ the wilderness baby during the summer solstice celebration she makes it about herself and the wilderness religion. she’s thanking the baby for sacrificing itself for the girls, instead of having some sensitivity for shauna for losing her child.
callie, she’s decided, has ‘power’, and is “the most connected to the wilderness out of anyone who wasn’t actually a yellowjacket”. she’s using callie to get that connection back for herself.
