This is so true and it drives me up the wall.
If its not Peter just not being included at all he is usually replaced with Regulus or Lily, and while i love both of their characters so much. It doesn't take away from the fact that there is no reason Peter shouldn't be included in Remus, Sirius, James content when its labeled "The Marauders" as he was very much a Marauder.
If people can excuse Barty Crouch Jr or Regulus Black for what they did as Death Eaters (Which Barty continued as an adult and wasn't forced into by family but was of his own choice) then they can definitely excuse Peter's Betrayal. His wrongs were just as wrong as theirs.
I’m actually kind of tired of seeing marauders content without Peter? Like?? My dudes, he was one of them?
THANK YOUUUUU. thankyouthankyouthankyou
No one wants to admit that James Potter gives off short guy energy.
Sam Wilson and Bucky Barnes is the best ship and anybody is yet to convince me otherwise
Don't go onto Voltron tik tok I've been crying for the last 20 minutes
me again, bothering you, but i am very interested in adhd james if you would like to share some of your hcs💖💖💖
you're not bother me at all! asks honestly give me so much serotonin. they really make my day :)
James was diagnosed really young. like, it was extremely obvious from the get-go that that child was not neurotypical
When he was a kid, he was very hyperactive. As he grew older, however, he sort of grew out of it. He has his high-energy days, but nothing to the caliber of child james
James was a menace as a kid
He was probably a backpack leash kid. you know exactly what I'm talking about
His parents are the ones who encouraged him to do sports a kid, just so he'd release some of that never-ending energy
James cycles through hyperfixations rapidly, and he hyperfixates on people a lot. Lily? He hyperfixated on her before. Sirius? You bet your ass. Literally anyone he's friends with, he probably hyperfixated on them at one point
My boy probably takes medication
Time just slips away from him. He's not a very punctual person because of that, but he really does try
He's the kind of person to have 1093843892 alarms on his phone that remind him to do the weirdest things. At least 6 of them are for waking up in the morning
delayed responses
"What?" "I said--" "Oh, the answer is [blank]"
James likes reading, but he cannot finish a book for the life of him
not interested? then he won't pay attention
horrible short term memory. frequently washes his hair twice because he couldn't remember if he already did. did he eat dinner already? don't ask James, he has no idea.
The Leg BounceTM
Impulsive. Sometimes dangerously so. No sense of self preservation
His spaces are organized chaos. It's messy, but he knows where everything is. At least, he knows most of the time
He may act like a very confident person, but James actually has a pretty low self image (yes, that's an adhd trait). One small mistake makes him question everything about himself
Horrible driver, but insists he's amazing. He drives like he's in a fast and furious movie
boredom is his worst enemy.
Is totally the kid that would forget a pencil all the time
Probably does his homework at the very last minute (on the drive to school, before the bell rings, etc etc), but somehow gets good grades on it???
makes Big Gestures when talking. He has, like, no control over his limbs and often hits people on accident. Profusely apologizes afterwards.
Watches television with the captions on. He can't understand what anyone is saying without them
When he's hyperfocused, he makes the strangest faces. Sirius always tells him that he'll get premature wrinkles if he keeps scrunching his face up like that
His notes app is a mess
His train of thought is constantly moving. It never stops. Never.
His biggest pet peeve is when people tell him he's "not trying" HE IS SHUT UP
James's adhd gets worse when he's playing sports. All the noise, all the moving, all the excitement-- it really sets off his hyperactivity, which is kind of a blessing when he's playing. It's like a life hack
omg so i had this thought right, and like sirius and james out on a aurors mission yoke and james casts his patronus, but its not a stag like usual. nope its (whatever you headcannon reggie having as his or like reggies anamagus) and james is frozen in shock cause he and reggie had been dating in secret for aaaaages now and like reg is in his last year at hogwarts so james is falling even more in love with reg cause he realises his patronus has changed to match regs meanwhile sirius is sooooo fuckin confused like my man has every theory going through his head trying to figure out who has stolen his best friends heart and its not until reg sends him a patronus message and he connects the dots. but he doesnt tell them he knows, oh no. he fucks with them as much as possible until it gets to like james just blurting it out.
Okays, So. I don't think Harry would have been named after nobody I feels as tho James and Lily would have named him after a family member or something. So I always kind headcannoned that James had and older brother named Harry.... but he was a still born. So James would have never grown up with him but he knew he had an older brother and his parents always said that Harry was looking over him, so yeah I think Harry was named after James older brother.
james is SO cropped top and tiny shorts coded
