Stop writing marauders fics and making peter this outcast that they ignore and didn't love. His betrayal hurt for a reason. Remus truly believed Sirius did it. And Sirius didn't want Pete dead because he let him go to Azkaban. No, he wanted him dead because he did what they promised they never do and that's hurt each and he did that. And I know for a fact James would resent him because he didn't just put James and Sirius in danger, he put lily and harry in danger. But secretly he'd forgive him. He'd pray it was a trick and peter was tortured. Or he was being a spy for Dumbledore and had to say something. James loved peter. Remus loved peter. Sirius loved peter. PETER IS A MARAUDER WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT. That doesn't mean you have to hate him. But stop making him this terrible, evil, scheming, person.
Okay, so, i really want to write a marauders fanfic (Probably including jegulus) but i have literally no ideas, like my mind is completely blank. So, if anyone has any marauders fanfic ideas, please tell me and i might write them! Also, if anyone wants to write a marauders fanfiction with me, i am completely open to that!
Was actually the first in the marauders to be punk. Remus insists that he was the one who introduced punk to everyone but Marlene just sits there glaring at him because she knows she’s always been way more punk than this nerd.
At thirteen she was the one who strutted around with black nail varnish and oversized band t-shirts. Punk women owned her entire heart.
Biggest Blondie fan in Hogwarts.
Cut her hair short once and wore a boys’ uniform because she was feeling ✨masculine✨ one year. Every single one of her friends experienced gay panic.
Had her ears pierced by Dorcas.
She has a golden retriever. Idk why she just gives me major golden retriever vibes.
Irish Marlene anyone??
They decide to go by all pronouns bc gender doesn’t mean shit to them. They still identify as a lesbian though: he/she/they butch lesbian Marlene.
She can sing but her voice is a little husky from all the cigarettes she smokes. This actually makes her sound even hotter, at least in Dorcas’s eyes.
They were Lily’s queer awakening and the two definitely made out more than once before Marlene got together with Dorcas.
She loves horror movies. And I mean loves them. They are her favourite genre and she absolutely loves the aesthetic of “hot person with blood splattered all over them”. Rip Marlene McKinnon you would have loved Heathers.
Fuck it, one year Marlene just straight up looks like Matthew Lillard in the first Scream movie lol.
Okay if anyone has read About a Boy (and I mean read the book not watched the film) she has almost the exact vibes of the character Ellie McCrae. No more needs to be said.
She plays electric guitar because I say so.
Her and James are besties. Not friends, not best friends, besties.
Sirius’s motorcycle did not in fact belong to him at first. It belonged to Marlene who was literally so careless that Dorcas begged her to give it up out of fear of Marlene’s own safety.
Marlene has dyslexia and her and James bonded over not being able to fucking read quickly and hating their homework (James has ADHD). They both set up a little study group where they helped each other and figured out different ways to make reading and writing easier for themselves, even if that meant just being there to support each other.
Marlene definitely wears a shirt that says dyke on it.
EXACTLYYY
I adore the trans regulus headcannon and it’s something that brings me so much comfort, but I feel that we always just say he cuts his hair and wears stereotypical boys clothes and suddenly he passes completely, and I just feel as though we should sometimes delve much deeper into him NOT passing, and how that affects the way he lives life, because not everyone’s trans journeys are the same, and not everyone passes, and yet in things like fanfics and stories the trans characters pass even though that’s not true to the experiences of lots of trans people, and although I don’t know if other non passing trans people feel like this, it makes me feel like I’m less or not valid because people wouldn’t look at me and think that I was a boy.
Regulus has a "Doll" mode where he basically dissosiates and acts like the "Perfect Pureblood heir" his family desired. His friends all have different ways of dealing when hes like this
Pandora strokes his hair and sings lullubies, sometimes in french
Dorcas does all his homework on his behalf after wrapping him in blankets so he can cool down
Marlene paints his nails and rambles about all the gossip and rumors floating around the school
Evan will move him to the glass windows by the lake and watch the water silently by his side
Barty will make an utter fool of himself or start making outragous claims like "Im pretty sure the sun is an illusion and were just being gaslit into believing in it" because he knows it makes Reggie laugh
When Pandora and Evan were little and one of them had nightmares, they would sneak into eachother's rooms. Now at Hogwarts the first time Pandora had a nightmare she broke into the Slytherin common room. Now every time Evan misses his sister he knows he can just want her to come and there she is, they claim "twin telepathy". Also No one knows how she keeps getting in, she doesn't know the password- but who tf is going to stop her from seeing her brother??
Every time Barty gets an angry owl from his dad, he gets so overwhelmed by anger to the point being called by their name makes him want to scream. So all his friends start calling him "idiot" "pretty boy" "raccoon" "dumbass" respectivly until he calms down.
Dorcas is an overachiver and will run herself into the ground trying to be the "best" and meet her own perfectionist standards. They sometimes steal her homework to do it on her behalf, shes so sleep deprived the only way she notices it wasnt her is no one but Evan has a perfect immitation of her handwriting. She appreciates it nonetheless
Marlene impulse dyes or cuts her hair, peirce's her ears, gives herself a stick and poke. Anything that proves she is in control of herself and that her decisions have an impact. But of course one too many patchy jobs, choppy bangs, and infected peircings or tattoos and things had to change. Now she can go to her friends, demand a septum and Evan is pulling out some rubber gloves, Regulus some expensive jewlery, and Dorcas and Pandora grab face masks and other self care stuff to do afterwards. Barty always insists on doing it as well, that way if she does get dresscoded she isn't alone.
i think one of the best things that will come of taylor swift’s new album is all the soul-crushing, gut-wrenching, life-shattering marauders edits we will surely receive
My fav dynamic in marauders is the complete and slightly unhealthy codependency James and Sirius have on each other
Like I’m positive when they left hogwarts instead of living with their partners they just owned a seperate house where they could live together
Sure they stayed with their partners sometimes but other times they just needed to be alone together
the porn bots are after me
professor monty and his student assistant regulus black and monty keeps trying to set regulus up with his son and reg keeps refusing out of respect to monty until reg got invited to the potters family and finally got to meet the son monty keeps trying to set him up with
Thought that I was going to have a nice evening and then remembered that when Patroclus died, so did Achilles’s last tie to his humanity.
Someone kill me
