A Very Marauders Tumblr

Blog dedicated to my obsession about Marauders. Not my first blog, but my only original blog.

How did Harry end up with the same round glasses as James? The Dursleys must have gotten Harry those glasses. It’s not like he inherited them, so what a coincidence that they were exactly the same as his dad’s…

I have my perfect Sirius for my headcanon image. I never shared this because it f**king breaks my heart every time I think about it, but today I’m feeling extra masochistic. The perfect Sirius that will never be.

"You can't be serious!"

Sirius: Can't I? I was born Sirius, you know...

James: Of course not! I'm way too handsome to be Sirius!

Remus: I may not *be* Sirius, but I can still *do* Sirius.

Peter: Oh, ok. Can I be James then?

And now imagine Remus Lupin cursing in Welsh.

Remus who casually drops Welsh words in the conversation, but does it so naturally that nobody ever suspects him of anything. They all consider a quirk of sorts and leave him to it.

Everyone knows that when Sirius speaks French he’s cursing. They might not understand it, but they all know. But when Remus speaks Welsh... Nobody. Has. A. Clue.

Sirius Black cursing in French. Sirius Black cursing in French because he thinks it sounds cool. Sirius Black cursing in French to piss his parents off. Sirius Black cursing in French in the classes whenever he wasn’t able to master a spell quickly enough. Sirius Black cursing in French sure that nobody except his relatives learns French anymore. Sirius Black cursing in French for years feeling smug. Sirius Black cursing in French for years until one day McGonagall rolled her eyes and told him in perfect French of her own that if she hears one more curse word come out of his mouth, he’ll be polishing trophies in the Trophy Room until all of them are shiny as new, because she’s been listening to this for years and what is enough is enough.

I was going through some photos and I found this gem. I was sleeping over at a friend’s house and this is how I was woken up - by her cat hugging me and purring. Wouldn’t mind waking up to this every day.

Please ignore my stupid morning face.

I'm rereading HP and... Well, it seems like the obstacles leading to the philosopher's stone are just ridiculous. Devil's Snare is a plant the first-years learn about. Flying keys are fine, but the brooms ready on the side? Come on! (Also would accio spell work?) Chess, which is of course a gamble, but definitely not impossible to win. A troll, which is scary alright, but we know there are much worse things and I feel like dada teacher could do so much better. And a logical riddle, that I find really simple. So basically the only challenge was Fluffy, and the mirror, of course. I mean the labyrinth in GoF is more challenging than this. If there was a bogart instead of the troll, Harry would be screwed, because not even Hermione would know the counter curse at this point. I shouldn't be so mad about this, but I am.

Sirius: *after having too much to drink* I am named after a star. That makes me a star. So why shouldn't I act like a star?

Remus: *muttering* Stars are also bright, you know?

“Sure, we have to go back home for the summer, but imagine how totally awesome going back is going to be. Until then I've gotta go back to the Muggle world. They're gonna try to tell me that this wasn't real and none of this happened, but you know what? It was real. It did happen. We spent time here, we made friends here. It's a part of us. Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, bigger than its founders and it's gonna be here long after we're gone. Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day. That's the thing about Hogwarts see, no matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back.”

(Darren Criss in A Very Potter Sequel)

“Harry Potter, he helped me once. He taught me something. He taught me that it's alright to let go of things that hurt us. He taught me to open my heart up to what's new. Harry Potter gave me a new family. He taught me how to love. I guess that's kind of what Harry Potter is all about. But you know there comes a time when you have to move on. A time when we have to let even Harry Potter go. And that's ok.”

(Joe Walker in A Very Potter Senior Year)

Ah, the two famous speeches also known as I’m not crying, you’re crying!

Just another breakfast at the Gryffindor table

James: Padfoot, pass me the waffles?

Sirius: I'm sorry. Did you say...

James: Don't!

Sirius: ...woofles?

James: *facepalm*

Remus: *magically appearing out of nowhere*

Remus: Did somebody say wolfles?

I can’t believe how absolutely awesome you all are for following this blog. Merlin bless your souls and may every day be like you’ve drunk felix felicis and may you never be so unlucky as to see the thestrals (however magnificent they are). Thank you!!!

Sirius: Why are you staring at me like that, Peter? Do I have broccoli in my teeth?

James: (jumping in before Peter could open his mouth) You eat broccoli?

Sirius: Well... No.

James: Then you can't have broccoli in your teeth, can you?

Sirius: Well... No.

Marauders re-imagined

So I’m trying to do a thing where the Avengers would play the Marauders. Due to different plots I decided to base this only on visual appereance. But then again some ships are too strong - like Natasha would be an obvious choice for Lily, but I couldn’t very well have her with Tony who is my choice for James. Oh Merlin, I hope this is comprehensible.

James Potter

Sirius Black

Remus Lupin

Peter Pettigrew

Lily Evans

Alice ? (Longbottom)

Frank Longbottom

Regulus Black

And, because I can’t really imagine him as anyone else, Lucius Malfoy

I know, I know, I have Regulus and Lucius yet I’m missing Snape. I might be overlooking him, but I also don’t have too many people to choose from and I don’t see him as any of them. You might argue that Loki could play Snape, but from where I stand he is such a great Regulus. So feel free to criticize my choices, or better yet make your own Marauders cast from the Avengers.

I like to think that McGonagall and the Marauders met in their animagi form. McGonagall was taking her usual evening stroll around the school grounds when suddenly a peculiar animal trio darted from the Forbidden Forest in front of her. If there were any spectators they would not believe their eyes as a cat, a stag, a big black dog, and a rat stared at each other in what can be only described as a shock. This lasted only a couple of seconds before the stag, the dog, and the rat disappeared in the Forbidden Forest again. The potential spectator would have seen the cat shrug a little and then continue her evening stroll around the school grounds.

Punk-rock Sirius who enjoys classical music although he would never admit it. And then, one day, the other Marauders come to their room only to find him dancing to Tchaikovsky with his eyes closed.

[bbjoons]

No but can you imagine: Sirius is hopping through the dorm and the others come in, and for a second there’s just this dead silence while the waltz of the snowflakes is booming loudly in the background, but then they all start dancing with each other through the room like fuck yesh I see it.

JKR said she realized her blood system was similar to nazi Jewish classification. So if one grandparent was Jewish (muggle) even if they converted (were muggle-born) they would still be considered Jewish/muggle and tainting the grandchildren. So Harry's children would be considered half-blood because they had one muggle/muggle-born grandparent, but if they had children with a pure-blood their children would be pure-blood because of all magical grandparents.
