This Is What I Mean When I Say That Sirius Loved Regulus But Did Not Like Him. I Don’t Think I Could

The Marauders? Oh you mean Sirius’ harem

SIRIUS IS CANONICALLY THE TALLEST MARAUDER!!!

Sirius who is so fucking confused when Remus doesn’t hit him. Whose memories of romance are all centred around his parents yelling and hitting, but everyone says marriage means they’re in love, so they must be. Who assumes that blood and broken bones and insults are all as much a part of a relationship as kissing and touching and giggling. Who wonders, one day, when he’s a little high and a little drunk, if Remus really loves him like he says he does if he won’t hurt him. Who gets on his knees and begs Remus to hit him, to hurt him, to make him bleed, because that’s all he knows.

YESYESYESYESYES YOU’RE SO RIGHT!!!

I love Remus being tall but so lanky and skinny with literally no muscle on his body because he’s literally a nerd and hates exercising he will literally die if he has to do a push-up. Sirius is big and buff and tall (almost as tall as Remus is, fight me) and he has stubble and tattoos and HE IS THE ONE THAT GETS ANGRY and he plays quidditch and he fight and hates authority.

I saw a post with sapphic WolfStar (which is great, don’t get me wrong!) where *Remus* is the big buff butch and *Sirius* is the tiny little femme?? Like no Remus’ fragile little bones (thank you full moon and bad genes— I am a firm believer that he needed a cane by the time he graduated because of all that) would shatter if he tried to lift anything other than a stack of books and his chocolate because he’s so soft.

Sirius is canonically so smart too, but that’s always butchered, as well?? Like he was described as brilliant by literally everyone????? Bro was a straight O student and no one can convince me otherwise. Remus is always made to be the one helping Sirius so he doesn’t fail but, in cannon, it was *Sirius* that helped teach *Remus*, who is a halfblood and therefore didn’t know as much about magic, how to do things. Honestly I hate what everyone is doing to them.

Jegulus also makes no sense and, while it’s not a dealbreaker if it shows up (mostly because if it was I would have to drop a billion fics), I don’t like it and it’s WAY too prevalent.

i think maybe the reason the portrayal of remus in the marauders fandom in the last few years is so upsetting to me is that the reason i got into this fan base was because of how much i related to him. i started getting into the fandom when remus was still a skinny gay book nerd who was shy but funny and sweet and endlessly loyal. wolfstar was soft love and more about fluffy-teeth-rotting moments between remus and sirius.

now we have buff alpha bad boy remus who can’t read and tiny twink sirius with a full face (including lashes) and a mini skirt.

genuinely what happened to classic wolfstar? what happened to rowdy punk rock sirius with his band t shirts and leather jacket and stubble? where’s soft, lanky remus?

in attempting to wrestle wolfstar away from jkr you’ve stripped remus and sirius of all of their defining characteristics that made them so interesting in the first place. they’ve lost all characterization and relatability in exchange for this horny,booktok, smut-obsessed bullshit i can’t escape from.

so yeah, i’m not a fan of modern wolfstar.

(this isn’t even touching on all of the jegulus stuff)

Bro is like 6’5 and the worst part about it is that he’s pretty broad and muscular, too. He’s literally massive. It’s impossible to lose him

Sirius is soooo tall like you'll have to look up to see his face, and you'll never lose him in crowds because he's towering over everyone.

I hate when people think that Sirius has to be either tall, strong, hyper-masculine, big-dick, badass, witty, sarcastic talented, and brilliant, or he has to be short, weak, extra-feminine, little-dick (NOT DEROGATORY FFS), useless, dumb, silly, pathetic, cross-dresser twink. This is completely ridiculous.

I would like to suggest an alternative (that is way closer to cannon and actually keeps his character intact, as opposed to whatever fannon is doing to my boy): Sirius Black is tall, strong, hairy, tattooed, talented, brilliant, scarred, and a badass… but he also wears skirts, makeup, and has long hair, which he styles frequently, wears a lot of jewelry and is heavily pierced.

There is no need to make him one of two extremes. Let him be a big, muscular man who wears feminine AND masculine clothing. Let him be more than stereotypical gay guy. Let him maintain his personality. Let him be what you all make Remus into (I could go on another rant about that in this post but I’ve already done that too much).

Let’s stop deciding that him being gay has to make him a derogatory, homophobic stereotype of a queer man.

Mommy issues core is seeing a cute tag on Tumblr called “mama posting” and looking through it and smiling at all the cute animals and then putting your phone down and staring at the ceiling for half an hour because these random ass creatures love their babies more than your mother has loved you (or, worse, just as much as she used to love you, because she doesn’t anymore. You know that. Stop lying to yourself)
