Imagine this as Sirius Black, but, when he calls out for “mama” he’s actually calling Effie and Minnie, because they were his real mothers. Imagine he calls for Andy, for Reggie, for Uncle Alphy, because they were his allies in the House of Black. Imagine he calls for Jambi, for Remsie, for Petey, because that’s what he called them before their nicknames.
im a fucking sucker for the “character gets so badly injured that they can’t think clearly and start calling for help in a distressingly vulnerable way.” characters who start using nicknames for their friends they haven’t used since they were kids. characters who start begging for their brother they haven’t seen in years to be there. characters who would usually use their parents’ names or call them mother/father/etc crying out mama when they go down. u understand.
My man is just that flavour of autistic he can’t help it
harry was definitely such a yapper baby. James and lily found it adorable. they entertained it and replied with normal things you would talk to babies about like fairytales and cars and dinosaurs.
but then remus babysits one night and James and lily come back home to remus on the couch with harry in his lap and remus is blabbering on about the constitution and the ministry.
Give me elementary school teacher Remus who teaches first graders and university professor Sirius who teaches physics and mechanical engineering. Give me Remus who takes out a feelings wheel and goes over basic communication skills with Sirius, because he never properly learned them as a child (namely due to Walburga and Orion’s abuse). Give me Sirius who helps Remus make little birthday and Christmas gifts for his students. Just… give me elementary school teacher Remus and university professor Sirius.
Trans!Regulus makes makes sense to me for a few reasons, honestly.
For one, it explains why it took so long for Sirius to be disowned. We know that the House of Black had very old values, so I can picture them not being accepting of trans people and not wanting a “woman” to be in charge. We know they disowned easily— think about Alphard— but they didn’t get rid of Sirius until he ran away. I could picture them keeping Sirius around to try and have a viable heir.
For two, it would give motivation for Regulus to rethink things. In the end, he did betray Voldemort, but, before that, he was wholly devoted to the cause. Maybe the reason he rethought things is because he realized he didn’t fit the mold, causing him to ask questions, before he figured it out and backtracked.
For three, I just like trans characters. Fuck JKR, she deserves to be pissed off by us making characters trans. I’d make Regulus trans if only to make her upset.
Okay, I actually have to correct this, but no hate or anything! Fanon has made it seem like James harassed her, but he didn’t! In canon, he asked her out one (1) time, during Snape’s memory, and, presumably, a second when they got together. There was no harassment. He was 15 and dumb, but he canonically changed for the better. On top of that, the Marauders never bullied Snape. Snape had a very large death-eater friend group who had a rivalry with the Marauders. It went both ways! The Marauders hated them because they were horrible people and Lily hated most of them, too. Point being: Jily isn’t toxic! They were young and did things a little quick because there was a war going on. I love Jamie I will die for him omg
I ship fanon jily but I do not ship canon jily. You're telling me a guy who bullied a girl's best friend, harrassed her, wouldn't take no for an answer when she made it clear she wasn't interested in him, told her he'd stop bullying said friend if she went out with him, ended up marrying said girl? And she had a baby at 21? Sounds pretty toxic to me (even if said 'best friend' was also a dick).
They're the sillies
Remus “he’s too beautiful for me and way out of my league”
And
Sirius “NO I SWEAR IM NOT CRAZY HE IS THE MOST GORGEOUS GUY EVER”
Remus “I’m worried that people will be too afraid of me to love me” Lupin
Plus
Sirius “I don’t fear death, death fears me” Black
OH MY GOD I LOVE YOU I WILL SEND IDEAS WHEN I'M FREE
Hey! I’m a fanfic author over on ao3 (username there is Alya_05). I haven’t written much (currently I have to wips that are sitting there while I’m super busy with exams) but the marauders mean a lot to me.
Anyways, while I realize that I have to wips that I should work on, I often find myself wanting to write random things as well and I would like to challenge myself to write some random stuff to become a better author.
So I’d like it if you (literally anyone at all) gave me prompts of something you’d like me to write. Anything you want, it can be heavy or light, fluffy or angsty, romantic or a gen fic or literally whatever you can think of (please don’t be scared to ask even if it is dark, I’m not here to judge and I promise I have thought of writing something just as dark if not darker than that at least once).
I’ll try to write something for you that you might enjoy. I only ask that you limit yourselves to one-shots or maybe 2 chapter fics given that I have two wips, one of which will be pretty long I think. If you would like something longer and it sparks my interest I will set it aside maybe for the future.
Btw, I was inspired by @itsriotmotherfuckers to ask for prompts so please check out their work as well (on ao3 their username is ItsRiot_8). They have a whole series of one-shots that are just honestly literal gold <3
Sirius is the opposite of touchy, bro will punt you if you get too close (he’s traumatized annoyed by touch). James, Peter, and Remus are all pretty touchy people (Remus acts like he’s not bc he’s scared to hurt people, but he is). The first time Sirius gives them hugs (which are really just him awkwardly putting an arm around their shoulders and squeezing a bit, maybe with a back pat or something) they are bouncing off the fucking walls with excitement
Canon: They’re roommates! Best friends! Siblings! Colleagues! Sidekicks!
Fanon: They’re in love.
canon: they died
fanfic: fUCK YOU
I will always and forever give my dearest Reloops a cane and chronic pain + back/hip/leg issues. I’ve been looking for excuses to do a Remus-centric fic in which he gets to have a cane + crutches + walker + wheelchair depending on his physical abilities/pain levels/weakness each day. Remus with chronic illness is also very dear to my heart. Disabled Remus is general is just really awesome, in my opinion. Lycanthropy is such a good metaphor for disability and, even in non-muggle AUs, there’s no way such brutal transformations twice a month wouldn’t affect his physical health.
Maybe this is my sign to start that fic…
fanfiction writers!!! special request to all of you!!! I need more fanfics where Remus needs and uses crutches!!! (especially if in the fanfic Remus has lycanthropy) I only see fanarts but rarely fanfics :(((((
If anyone knows of any fanfics where Remus uses a crutch or a cane, please send them to me!
They/ItI leave a lot of extra content in tags lolWolfstar + JilyAo3: SaltedPapercutsFuck JKR!
