Me trying to figure out how to logically ship drarry, scorbus, linny, wolfstar, and jeddy all at the same time.
so my boyfriend and I tried roleplaying the other day and we did the whole “professor and bad student who needs to pass” thing, only he wanted to be the professor, so I had to be the horny and failing student. I’m the valedictorian of my senior class of 400 and I have a horrible phobia of flunking, so when he whispered “you’re failing my class, you naughty girl” in my ear, I started crying and we had to stop

Everything changed in third year.
It really should have been insignificant in the grander scheme of things. Magic was real, Harry was the Boy Who Lived, and He Who Must Not be Named was back. There were so many more important things to think about.
So why was Harry so hung up on the fact that Sirius Black and Remus Lupin were in love?
Or how Harry accidentally fell in love with Draco Malfoy. (And it might have been the best thing that ever happened to him … or the worst)
saw this on instagram and felt like tumblr should see it too
I write Wolfstar fanfiction. (What? Really? No way! Shocking! I had no idea!)
It usually goes unnoticed, but I’m very particular with the way that I write. I’ll use different words and different writing styles depending on which character’s perspective a story is written from. I also try to pay close attention to the language that I use and how I use it.
This is my take on pronouns, specifically in regards to Remus’ lycanthropy:
James and Peter always refer to the Wolf as “you”. They see the Wolf as being a part of Remus, an extension of Remus. The Wolf is as much Remus as the human version of him is.
James: You were great last night. You were actually really easy to handle!
Peter: …You ate a rabbit.
Sirius always refers to the Wolf as “him”. He knows that Remus hates when he’s associated with the wolf inside, so Sirius tries his best to respect Remus’ wishes and avoid talking about the Wolf as if he is the same thing as Moony.
Sirius: Yeah, he kind of chased the rabbit around for a while and… well… that’s why you’re not hungry this morning.
Remus always refers to the Wolf as “it”. He hates humanizing it, giving it person-like qualities like gender and emotions. In Remus’ eyes, the wolf is nothing but a monster; a vile creature that has no rhyme or reason, no personality, no real motive for its actions, nothing except blood lust and hunger. Remus doesn’t consider the Wolf and himself to be the same thing. He doesn’t even consider the Wolf to be a real animal. It’s just a beast.
Remus: Well, I’m just glad it didn’t hurt any of you guys…
And I’ve been fairly consistent with my pronoun use, making sure that the way the boys talk about the Wolf also reflects their views on what it is relative to Moony.
Just some MES musings! (MES= MaurauderEraSmut! That’s me!)
the problem with making a playlist for your own writing is that you’re in deep enough that you can justify literally any song to be in it

Part 2 of the Muggle Youtuber AU in which we get to see Remus’ side of the story
remember in goblet of fire when minerva says ‘potter’s a boy, not a piece of meat!’
imagine harry telling her everything after the battle of hogwarts, telling her about how dumbledore raised him like a pig for slaughter, and how he had to die and mcgonagall gets so goddamned mad
she loses control for the first time that harry’s EVER seen and she’s actually yelling, she’s so pissed that harry was seventeen and he had to accept death and dumbledore KNEW he would have to die and NEVER TOLD HIM
and harry’s about to cry because yeah his friends would be devastated if he was gone but NO ONE got this damn pissed that dumbledore had raised him so that he could die at the right time and mcgonagall’s in the middle of a rant and he just shoots up and hugs her and she’s stunned into silence but after a moment she hugs back and it’s great
and then she goes up to her office and starts screaming at dumbledore’s portrait because ‘i don’t care if it had to happen, albus, he is a CHILD-’
I feel like the problem ppl have when constructing redemption arcs is people make 'the character realizes what they've done is wrong' the end step instead of like...one of the earliest ones. a satisfying redemption arc doesn't resolve when the character first feels sorry, it resolves when a character has really journeyed towards atonement and made enough change in themselves to achieve some kind of symbolic victory over who they used to be
