“that didn’t happen in canon.”

how do you know? were you there?

"Regulus was a fascist/racist/bloodsupremacist."

I'm not going to say that he wasn't, because I don't know. He's a fictional dead character so we will never truly know. However, I have to point out that Regulus offered himself up to drink the poison and die in that cave rather than letting Kreacher do it. Blood supremacists believe themselves to be more valuable than any living thing, but Regulus preserved Kreachers life and not his own. People like Lucius Malfoy, a confirmed blood supremacist would have left the houseful to die, but Regulus didn't. Furthermore, Regulus was 18 and all he had ever known was his family's ideology. He was raised by his parents in this ideology and then spent his time in Slytherin which at the time was filled with blood supremacists and future death eaters. If we say for a moment that he was racist, as bad as it is, its not really his fault because he was a child and didn't know any better. Does that make any racist actions okay? of course not. But some of you are forgetting that he was a child. In real life, most people dont break away from bigoted beliefs taught by their parents until they are taught better, and Regulus probably never was. Stop holding child characters to the same standard as adult characters If you can do it for Peter and Snape and even James then you can do it for Regulus.

The Marauders fandom:

“Cannon Divergent”…?

Nah bitch, this is a “CANNON DIVORCE”

We’ll dismantle cannon with our bare hands, throw out the shitty plot holes & rebuild it way more gay! They can’t stop us!

Viva la revolución!

The anti jeguls and anti regulus people calling everyone fascists are starting to get on my nerves. Especially because they're flooding the jegulus tag while complaining about us flooding the other tags. Hypocrisy at its finest.

" Bring back the OG marauders."

Sure, go ahead. If you want to make them all cis-het white British characters again, feel free to do so. Nobody is forcing you to read fics with more diversity. The fun thing about fanon and headcannons is that you can think whatever you want and nobody can stop you. However if the diversity bothers you enough that you have to send us death threats, that says more about you than it does about us.

Im.. Soft 🥺🥺🥺

"Regulus only changed because Voldemort hurt Kreacher whom he saw as his property."

Based on the information that we do have from Canon, this cannot be true. we know from Kreachers stories that Regulus was always nicer to him than most people, which means that he probably saw Kreacher as more than an object, maybe even a friend if he was willing to die instead of him. Either way, Regulus didn't just decide to go against everything he'd ever known just because his houself had gotten injured. This was probably the breaking point that led to his decision.

"The babygirlification of death eater characters is problematic."

We're writing fanfiction about dead wizards from a world that doesn't exist, it's really not that serious. Besides, in most of the fics where this happens, they're not racist??? the whole point of fanfiction is that we change Canon to fit our own made up stories. Nobody is glorifying fascism or racism, please stop fighting invisible enemies, its getting embarrassing. If you want more stories about the 4 marauders doing marauders shenanigans like ATYD or whatever, write them, meanwhile I'll be enjoying my Regulus centric Jegulus fanfictions over here, because that is what I enjoy and there's nothing wrong with that.

"Jegulus is being forced down our throats"

No it's not, block the tags of you dont like them it's not that hard. Yes, tagging incorrectly is a problem that needs to be solved, but if you're gonna be in the main 'Marauders' tag, you should expect to see any and all ships. Stop complaining, please. I'd you think something has the wrong tag on it, ask the person NICELY to remove it.

"Peter is being replaced by Regulus as a marauder."

No he's not, be so for real right now. In the majority of fics Regulus is left out/ignored by the marauders unless he and Sirius have a good relationship. And when they have a good relationship it makes sense for Regulus to be around his brother and the rest of the marauders, especially when Jegulus is happening. Peter being forgotten isn't a new thing, that has been an issue for years, so stop blaming it on the rise in Regulus popularity.
