I Have Like 5 Followers But All 5 Followers Deserve To Know They’re Valid And Loved. I Fucking Love

Hari raised by Sirius and Remus 😊

Thank you thank you thank you!!

I’ve gotten a flood of votes overnight, I’m so touched! Everyone’s using Hari’s Indian name and I find it so touching!

Keep the votes coming! The voting won’t end until I’ve finished or mostly finished the Marauders’ Era part of the rewrite!

Who Should Raise Hari? Vote!

Beta-Readers Needed!

Before I publish the first few chapters of my rewrite series, I’m looking for at least five beta readers who’ll check my work for any inconsistencies, typos, and any other errors that might be found.

ੈ✩‧₊˚ If you are interested, you can message me so that I can ask you a couple of questions. If I feel that you may work well with me, I’ll ask for your email.

ੈ✩‧₊˚ If you are not interested, but know someone that might be, then you can either send them this post or tell me about them so that I can ask them myself. I’ll be asking a couple of simple questions and, if I feel we’d work well, then I’ll ask for their emails.

ੈ✩‧₊˚ REMEMBER! This part of the rewrite is centered around the Marauders & Co. (the romance is Wolfstar-focused, although romance isn’t the main theme). There’s going to be a lot of diversity in terms of race, gender, and disabilities. Also, Snape is going to be a complex, humanized character.

ੈ✩‧₊˚ If I can find someone who is Indian, Japanese, French, and/or Welsh to call me out in case I make any mistakes (I’ve been studying these cultures for years whenever I can, but I’m not perfect) that would be amazing.

ੈ✩‧₊˚ Finally, any and all Beta-Readers I end up picking will be credited each chapter I post.

WARNING!!!!

People, please be careful. There are also people tracking children and people and putting bids on them based on their profile pictures on whatsapp, tracking and kidnapping them. Especially young children, so please be cautious, especially parents who have their children as their profile pictures.

Please pass this on to everyone so that they are aware of the danger. I don’t how it is all around the world but I know it can’t just be here so please please spread the word. Thank you.

Wolfstar FanFic Coming Soon

Hello everyone!

My name is MG Soto, and I’ve been writing a very long Wolfstar fan fiction for about five years - it’s mostly detailing and outlining, so I still have to do the actual writing. It all really started shortly after reading PoA and I just honestly fell in love with the very few details we were given of the Marauders’ lives. 

I don’t, in any way, support JKRoach - but I am a strong believer that one can separate the art from the artist. 

Anyways, I was wondering if anyone would be interested in reading it. It’ll be from 1971-1981; so basically, I’ll be taking everyone on a special journey throughout their years at Hogwarts and the few years before the end. I have a couple of twists up on my sleeve, which I’m very excited about. 

Under the cut are some important headcanons I’ll be using throughout the story:

Remus Lupin

1. Remus is an avid reader but not the best student when it came to academics - this comes from the tendency to procrastinate a lot as well as always being out with friends causing mayhem, as you do. 

2. Remus has issues with his father, because I just really don’t think Lyall Lupin is just going to forget his strong hatred/ignorance towards werewolves just because his son is one. I think there is so much more we can unpack in their relationship. 

Sirius Black

1. Sirius was not automatically okay with being a Gryffindor despite his entire family being Slytherins; it takes him at least a year to warm up to his roommates and the other House-mates. 

2. Sirius is the one that keeps his part of the room neat, has pretty handwriting, turns in most of the work on time and checks his friends’ work for grammar errors. You can’t grow up in a household where your parents are constantly drilling their expectations in your head and then leave it all behind overnight. 

James Potter 

1. James is a POC, Indian, to be specific. His parents are immigrants who had done everything they could in order to get a better life, they try to teach James as much as possible about his culture and language, so that he never forgets. 

2. James is the one that makes sure his friends have completed all of their schoolwork before they can even think about having fun. He’s not about to let them fall behind just because they weren’t responsible. 

Peter Pettigrew

1. Peter is an actual member of the Marauders. He has his positive and negative traits just like every other character. He falls in love, has his hobbies, and his own friends that are not James, Remus, and Sirius. He’s a person. 

2. Peter has a younger sister, which he would do any and everything for. He’s very protective of her, and is willing to do just about anything to keep her safe. 

Lily Evans

1. Lily will be an accurately represented plus-sized character. She’ll have her confidence, but also her insecurities like every other skinny or fat girl. Being fat will not be her only character trait, but it’ll be brought up enough to show what it means to be anything but skinny in this society. 

2. She’s not going to be a complete stuck-up. I’ve always hated it so much when they showed her like that, honestly, and so I decided that she can be fun and funny too. 

Marlene McKinnon

1. She’s a transgender woman. She’s incredibly badass, but also sensitive. She’s my baby, I’ve worked so hard on her (the amount of trans women who’ve helped me is ridiculous, I love them all). 

2. She was the Marauders’ fifth roommate, and she is also Sirius’ platonic soulmate. Their friendship’s so pure. 

Other Characters You’ll Meet...

1. Mary MacDonald

2. Dorcas Meadowes

3. Severus Snape (not a main character, but an important one)

4. Three (3) OCs

That is all that comes to mind! I’ll be posting the story on AO3 and on Wattpad once I’m done. I’ll be using this account to update everyone on the process (It’s mostly done, but I’m hoping that you guys will help me push through so that I can finish it). Let me know if there are any questions, suggestions, or comments!

To the moon and the stars, 

MG Soto

arguing with terfs sucks so much cause it just feels like youre making litterally the same exact points as them but somehow they still refuse to accept the truth

they take what you say and twist it, strawmanning your words into something you never said. because at the end of the day, they refuse to accept that they are in any capacity incorrect. you can't even argue on the note of compassion, because they fundamentally do not fucking care.

What you said about Percy following the rules is exactly what I had in mind.

Also, yes! Percy’s own father works at the Ministry, and I’m sure he must’ve been in awed every time Arthur returned home exhausted after a day of dealing with post-war problems.

I think Percy was a quite child - I love the older two, but I don't connect with their stories as much - because of the war. And nobody minded. Being quiet meant he could hide, being quiet meant he wasn't a liability. But then the war ended, and people saw him as weird.

Honestly, I agree. Being quiet isn’t a flaw or a liability. However, from what I understand, Percy was already thought of as weird since way before the war. There’s a lot of moments in the books where people mock him (mostly the twins). I think it wasn’t until after the war that people started trying to understand him.

so you write on ao3

I have an account, but I haven’t posted anything yet. You can find me by the same username (thesoftrainbows).

I also have Wattpad (ew, I know), and will probably also post my HP Rewrite in FanFiction.net if I figure out how it works.

All of these accounts have the same username.

OH also, Twitter and Instagram are under the same name :)

Can someone please teach me how to add links in that pretty, organized way I’ve seen some people do? I don’t know how to explain it, but like you can name the link whatever you want and it’s not that long-ass jumble of letters and numbers.

An important tweet

If anyone has any ideas on specifics, that would help me immensely. If you’re a trans person and are interested in developing this ceremony and the Verosui with me, you’re more than welcome to. Credit will be given, of course.

Verosui.

[ veros: “genuine” (Greek); sui: “self” (Latin). ]

OFFICIAL NAME. Verosui

ALSO KNOWN AS. The Holy Messenger OR The Amender

SIZE. 14.5 in

DIET. They eat berries, but they also enjoy eating arthropods and small invertebrates such as spiders, scorpions, centipedes and such.

ABOUT THEM. There used to be an ancient ceremony where whenever someone announced that they were born in the wrong body, they would contact the Goddess via a song so that She would send her beloved pet, the Verosui, to right her wrong. The Amender would arrive a week after the song, to perform its magic. During this week, the village or family would gather around in prayer so that the Amender will show its holy compassion as a sign of compassion towards the sufferer.

Once the Amender arrives, they shall see if a person’s true self would be what they claim. If they deem it necessary, they shall begin the performance of sex reassignment, which really involves powerful magic being used while they fly in circles around their target. It is said that the experience is a mixture of thrilling and painful, so it would really depend on who the person is.

Unfortunately, this ceremony was banned in 1903 by the Minister of Magic at the time — K. Rowl. Ever since then, the wixes were forced to forget about this ceremony since they would be persecuted if they attempted to relieve a sufferer’s pain. Sufferers were soon scorned and mocked if they came out.

Questions? Send an Ask!

I’m going to make it into a College AU type of thing, hope you don’t mind.

SIRIUS BLACK would most likely be some kind of History major, but focused on Queer History that past historians had tried to play off as them being “best friends”, “brothers”, and such. Sirius would also perhaps have a minor in English/Creative Writing because I love the idea of him using his discoveries as a historian to write heart-wrenching love stories.

REMUS LUPIN would be studying to become a Conservation Biologist. He’s just so passionate about animals finding homes and saving them from extinction, he feels like it’s his destiny. Would also most likely write books about it and write popular essays on everything he knows and how he thinks people can improve these endangered animals’ quality of life. Remus would most likely relate to Lily the most.

JAMES POTTER would be either studying to become some kind of doctor, or to become a professional coach of some sport like football (what Americans call soccer), there’s no in-between for me. He’d be really passionate about it either way, and would be found staying up all night studying.

PETER PETTIGREW would definitely be an Arts major, although he wouldn’t want to be stuck in one branch of art. He would probably try all different kinds of arts before he even thought about favoring one. I just picture paint stains on his clothes and a mixture of ink and charcoal staining his hands.

LILY EVANS would probably study to become a Botanist, which would awaken her inner environmentalist. I really think she’d go on long rants about how plants are dying and animals are going extinct and now we’re all being deep-fried by the sun because of global warming. She and Remus would almost always be caught talking about these things.

REGULUS BLACK would a scientist of some sort, maybe a chemist. He’s a man of science and loves math by extension. He’s so sirius serious about his academics and goals.

what do y’all think would have been the marauders favourite subject if they went to like muggle school?
