"Regulus Was A Fascist/racist/bloodsupremacist."

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.

"Saying Regulus is a more interesting character than Lily is misogyny"

First of all, I agree that there is a disproportion of content for male and female characters and that's a problem. However, preferring Regulus' character over Lily's and finding it more interesting isn't misogyny, but Personal opinion. Sure, some people might have this opinion because of misogyny but the majority don't.

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.

"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.

Assigning taylor swift albums to marauders characters. This is purely my opinion so don't come at me pls.

Regulus - Folklore and Reputation

James - Folklore and Lover

(I could write essays defending these choices for Jegulus,don't test me)

Remus - Folklore and Evermore (hes one angsty boy)

Sirius - Reputation and Speak now (you cannot tell me he wouldnt interrupt a wedding dramatically for Remus)

Peter - 1989 and debut

Lily - Red and Evermore

Mary - Debut and Midnights

Marlene - Midnights and Reputation

Dorcas - Midnights and 1989

Pandora - Debut and Fearless (she would be an og swiftie fr)

Evan - Red and 1989 (can i explain this? no, but im sticking with it anyway)

Barty - reputation, midnights and a splash of Folklore (its giving chaos)

This is so true. Just like with any character, their actions as children are excusable but anything horrible they do as adults cannot be forgotten about or excused. This goes for Peter, Regulus, Barty and even James and Sirius too. There is a difference between young characters and old characters as well as between canon characters and fanon characters.

Imma say it:

I’m pro CHILD AND STUDENT snape but the second he’s an adult my sympathy is lost. Sure kids do stupid shit, but the dude was an adult when he was perfectly fine murdering some random women’s baby until he found out it was lily’s.

"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.

"Regulus wasn't abused. He was a golden child and Sirius was the scapegoat. His parents loved him "

Obviously, there isn't any evidence of physical abuse against either Sirius or Regulus in the books. However, something caused Sirius to run away and it surely wasn't that his parents didn't give him pocket money. The psychological or emotional abuse must have been bad enough that Sirus decided to run. Anyone who has abt experience with toxic or abusive parents will know that every child reacts to it differently but at the end of the day, regardless of whether you follow the rules or you act out, their toxic or abusive behaviour is going to affect you. Parents dont become abusive because you break rules. Suggesting that Regulus with his "golden child status " was exempt from the abuse is just ridiculous and quite frankly harmful to people who find themselves in such homes.

Jegulus Celebrity AU where James has two tiktok accounts, his verified one and a private one.

He only posts regularly on the second one but if you go onto the reposts of his "official" account, you'd only find edits of Regulus.

He also uses that one to comment on his favourite ones and the fans love it

(Sirus has James' verified account blocked because he was tired of seeing edits of his brother on his fyp)

I love the idea of a Trans Regulus AU (ftm) where he fakes his death and transitions while everyone mourns him, only for the marauders to randomly see him somewhere like the place he works a few years later. Imagine the confrontation

Regulus : *deer in headlights*

Sirius : *absolute disbelief*

Remus :*shocked and mildly impressed that Regulus pulled off smth like this*

Peter : *confused*

James : *brain rebooting as he stares at Regulus, practically drooling*
