I’ve seen some people say that Remus deserved to get fired from his job because he put the students in danger when he forgot to take the Wolfsbane potion, which is sort of true.
However, I don’t think it’s a valid reason to fire him because when has Hogwarts ever given a flying fuck about student safety?
In Harry's 1rst year, he was forced to go to the Forbidden Forest AT NIGHT as a punishment for sneaking around at night. there was the Devil's Snare, Chewy, a chess board that nearly killed them, and the DADA Professor had Tom on the back of his head.
Then in 2nd year, Tom possessed Ginny, a Basilisk was going around petrifying students, and Lockhart was going to erase Harry and Ron’s memory and let Ginny die.
In 3rd year, there were dementors flying around the school
Don’t even get me started on Quidditch, because that game is a safety hazard as a whole. I mean whose idea was it to invent iron bludgers to hit people, while they’re flying mid-air. And who thought it was okay to let children play that sport?!
And let’s not forget that Tom literally killed a student and he still wasn’t expelled.
I don’t think I need to explain anymore…
I love this, I really do
She was in her office working late one night when she heard tapping on the window; it was an owl, carrying a letter labelled « Minnie »
So of course she knew who it was from
ngl she teared up a little at the thought that Lily and James were getting married, in spite of the war, and that they’d invited her to the wedding
She wondered for a (very short) while if it would be appropriate for her to attend her former students’ wedding, but oh who was she kidding - this was James Potter and Lily Evans, of course she was going
She showed up in a long bottle green silk dress, and a high bun with green feathers sprouting from it
Of course Sirius was the first to spot her when she arrived
He offered her his arm (« you look ravishing tonight, Minnie ») and escorted her to her seat
She didn’t even try to conceal her tears during the ceremony
she was so proud
later Marlene dares Sirius to ask McGonagall for a dance
Sirius looks offended
« I don’t need to be dared to ask Minnie for a dance! I was going to anyway! »
« Minnie, would you care to dance with me? »
« Mr Black, I hardly think this would be appropriate! And may I ask again that you stop using that name! »
« Come on Minnie, you know you love it. One dance? »
*deep sigh from McGonagall*
« Alright, Black. One dance »
Sirius winks at James as he dances with McGonagall
James is dancing nearby with Lily
He looks so betrayed it’s comical
« Excuse me Lily I must go dance with Minnie right now »
Lily rolls her eyes
« sometimes I wonder if you don’t love her more than you love me » she groans
but she smiles and goes off to dance with Alice
James approaches Sirius and McGonagall and clears his throat
« excuse me, Minnie, do you think I could have this dance? »
Sirius looks bewildered (« uh, mate, can’t you see I’m dancing with Minnie?? »)
« Ah, yes, Padfoot, but this is my weeding. I do what I want »
To their surprise, McGonagall nods, « you know, Black, Mr Potter’s got a point.. »
James smirks at Sirius, who stares at them for a second then stomps away mumbling to himself like the drama queen that he is
McGonagall may tell James how proud she is of him while they dance
James may find his eyes to be a wee bit watery for a second
After a while, Sirius reappears
James starts to make a speech about how Sirius should quit trying already (« I am the groom, Padfoot, therefore I am the one who gets to dance with Minnie » *severe eye-rolling from McGonagall*)
but Sirius cuts him off by saying « Prongs, I didn’t come here to ask Minnie to dance with me. I came to ask you. »
« Oh. Well in that case » — he turns to McGonagall — « Minnie, if you’ll excuse us »
James takes Sirius by the waist and they start dancing
Almost half an hour later, Lily sits down next to a grinning McGonagall and sighs « you know, sometimes I wonder if he doesn’t love him more than he loves either or us »
WHY DID YOU HAVE TO BREAK MY HEART LIKE THIS?!?! WHYYYYY?!?!
(┬┬﹏┬┬)(┬┬﹏┬┬)(┬┬﹏┬┬)
Wolfstar tattoo headcanon
Remus has a tattoo of the Sirius constellation on the inside of his arm and it glows brighter or darker depending on Sirius’s mood.
And Sirius has a tattoo of the moon on his palm that reflects it’s current phase so he never forgets when the full moon is.
When Sirius was trapped in Azkaban, Remus’s stars fade to a dull, ashy grey. He slowly loses hope that the stars would ever glow silver again.
Sirius stays awake on the full moons staring at his palm and imagine Remus out there somewhere, in agony, without Sirius.
Those of you saying that Harry Potter could beat Percy Jackson in a non-magical fight have no IDEA how wrong you are.
Percy is a (kind of) street-smart kid from NYC who has a history of beating up people who mock him.
Harry is a British bitch who spent the first 10-11 years of his life getting his ass whooped by his cousin.
And even with magic, Percy is the son of Posideon. He's a DEMIGOD. He's fought the literal GOD OF WAR AND WON! There's no way that Harry "wot?" Potter is beating Percy.
*Remus's computer makes a noise.*
Remus: "Oh, fuck off! I'm running low on the will to live right now, but I'm not going 'bloough, bloough!' every 3 seconds, am I?"
I will always believe that the only reason the Weasley Twins weren't Slytherins is because JKR was too busy demonizing us.
The traits of Slytherin are resourcefulness, determination, ambition, pride, cunning, leadership, and self-preservation.
1. Resourcefulness: They grew up poor, so they definitely learnt to make the most of what they had like their siblings.
2. Determination & Ambition: They had ambitions to be successful businessmen in the joke shop industry and were determined to achieve their goal no matter what anyone else said.
3. Pride: They are very proud of their work and are proud to be known as the infamous mischief makers at Hogwarts who could give even the Marauders a run for their money.
4. Cunning: Cunning isn't always a bad thing. As stated before, they were the most infamous pranksters at Hogwarts in their era. They were extremely cunning.
5. Leadership: They were leaders in terms of ideas. They inspired others (an example being them leaving the school causing students to follow in the twins footsteps and play pranks of their own.)
6. Self-preservation: As we saw with our very funny, very handsome, very dead friend, "Dead Fred", and our other very funny, very handsome, very one-eared friend, "Gorg George", self-preservation isn't their strong suit, but I think everything else fits for them.
What's your opinion on this?
Imagine how hard it was for Remus to see Sirius die. He had to accept the fact that his best friend, his lover, his soulmate, was dead on the spot so that he could save Harry.
Not only that, but Harry looks almost identical to James, so Remus probably felt like he was holding back James in that moment, not Harry.
On pg. 767 of OOTP it says:
“And now bright orange lights were growing larger and rounder on all sides. They could see the tops of buildings, streams of headlights like luminous insect eyes, squares of pale yellow that were windows. Quite suddenly, it seemed, they were hurtling toward the pavement.”
Considering they're walking into London, there must be witches and wizards who can see thestrals, right? And let’s say there were 0 witches/wizards (which I find very hard to believe) did no Muggles question why a bunch of kids were floating in mid-air?
You've all heard of tall Remus, but what about tall Sirius? I like to imagine Remus was around 5'11, and Sirius was around 6'3.
Imagine Sirius pulling Remus close to him and wrapping his arms around him when they were outside, and it was cold.
Imagine Remus stealing Sirius's t-shirts and clothes. Sirius would lose his mind when he saw Remus wearing clothes that were a little too big for him.
Imagine Sirius purposefully stealing Remus's books and holding them just out of reach. He wouldn't return it until Remus said "I love you" and kissed him. By the time the book was within reach again, they were both preoccupied with... exercise activities {if you know what I mean (;}.
Imagine Sirius sneaking up behind Remus and throwing his arms around him to pull him close and sway him while he bombarded his Moony with kisses.
Just... tall Sirius. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk <3.
On pg. 767-768 of OOTP it says:
“Harry took one glance back at the thestrals, now foraging for scraps of rotten food inside the dumpster, then forced himself into the box after Luna. ‘Whoever’s nearest the receiver, dial six two four four two!’ he said.”
Harry heard that number once in the summer, and you’re telling me he remembered it up until June?! He couldn’t even remember information for a test that he studied for that morning, and you’re telling me he remembered a bunch of random numbers from June? It would be more realistic if Ron knew it since his dad works at the Ministry.
Honestly, JKR thinks nothing through...
Okay but imagine one day, Arthur does this while out with Ron and Harry and a stranger goes, “Why does that one have black hair if everyone else has orange?" And Harry gets really embarrassed and starts to say, “Oh I'm not his-”
Only to get cut off by Arthur who says, “He's adopted :)"
Now imagine the same thing happening with the Potters and Sirius.
OUCH MY HEART-
You’re wrong if you think James Potter and Arthur Weasley didn’t walk around carrying a whole ass photo album of their families in their wallets 24/7. You’re wrong if you think they didn’t show off these pictures to random strangers on the street. And you’re wrong if you think they didn’t get all misty eyed because they both loved their families more than they loved life itself.
