"You can't like Regulus but hate Snape, because they were both death eaters."
Incorrect, because I don't dislike Snape for joining the Death Eaters or even for the way he treated Lily when he was a child. I dislike him because of the way he treated children as an adult and a teacher. His blatant bullying of Neville and Hermione is why I donr like him. If I read a fic where he becomes less of a shitty person, I do find myself liking his character, but in terms of Canon, disliking Snape isn't outrageous.
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.
That awkward moment when someone you know in real life finds your online fanfiction.
“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!
"Jegulus is misogynistic because Lily is sidelined in the story as a result of the ship."
I dont think that's misogyny because if it's a JEGULUS story, and she isn't the main character, why would her story be prioritised. Once again, if you want to see more Lily content or any female character, why dont you start by making some yourself. Personally, if I want a specific fanfic but I can't find one like it, I WRITE IT MYSELF. Complaining without doing anything to make a change is just annoying and unhelpful.
"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.
So guess who finally finished their 85k canon-adjacent Jegulus fanfic?
It's a trick question, the answer is me obviously.
Anyway I uploaded the final chapter today and after more than a year of writing, it's done.
Thank you to everyone's support with this, I'm so grateful.
Random question but if a trans male character gets pregnant, does it count as mpreg, because I have seen people argue both in fanfiction tags?
I asked some of my fanfic writer friends but we couldn't agree so we decided to take the argument to tumblr.
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.
