James & Sirius & Peter & Remus - Blog Posts

The Great Marauder’s prank wall headcanon Okay but imagine this… -The Marauders having a wall in the dorm covered with paper -It starts out when James writes a note to Sirius about the potions homework -Then it just becomes the default place to stick reminders and notes that are just never taken down again -Then Remus takes a risk and adds a photo of the four of them at the end of the first year -The photo stays up and is quickly joined by hundreds of others -When Sirius starts writing really bad poetry he sticks that up there too -The others like to write feedback to him -James kind of misses the point of ‘constructive’ criticism -“PRONGS HOW IS ‘THIS IS CRAP’ GOING TO HELP ME IMPROVE MY ARTISTIC PROSE” -When the war starts they stick up articles about disappearances they want to solve -A shrine is made in one corner to commemorate those lost -When they leave they each sign the wall with non-removable ink -They also write one thing they want to try and do before they die -When the war is over Mcgonagall finds the wall -On it is written the following -‘Before I die I want to make peace with my brother’ -‘Before I die I want to gain control’ ‘Before I die I want to have a whole bunch of kids with the best woman ever and then they’ll all form a super Potter quidditch team’ -And last of all in the smallest and neatest writing it says -‘Before I die I want to not be afraid’ -Mcgonagall takes everything down and puts it in a large box -She sends it to Harry anonymously -She adds a note saying this -'Before I die I want to be outlived’
