ur gonna disagree but i hate the recent rise in prongsfoot shippers,, personally that's a relationship that is very important to keep platonic as it affects their characters way too much and changes them to an unrecognizable point,, and their relationship as found brothers is way too interesting to be unnecessarily explained by romantic feelings/lust/etc. im personally not even a fan of them ever having had any sort of intimacy besides hugging (kissing/etc)

i do disagree, yes, sorry 😭

i...don't think having james and sirius be romantic changes their characters to an unrecognizable point, no more than remus and sirius being romantic does. if anything, james and sirius, through the lens of canon, kinda make more sense... like that's blasphemous to say, i know, i know, but like. if we're just looking at canon here, only the text and no subtext and no themes (i.e. the moon and stars etc etc), sirius and james were, like, inseparable. they had a two-way mirror for separate detentions. sirius was, quite frankly, rather obsessed with james 😭 and james was just as obsessed back. im just saying, there's absolutely room there for romantic connotations between them. if there is for wolfstar, then there is for prongsfoot. most people want to look at it as, like, idk incest? but they're not brothers. they were never brothers. sirius didn't go to the potters until he was 16, and he was out by the time he was 17, but always welcome to sunday lunch. sirius once tells james to put away his snitch, and james is like "if it bothers you" and just??? does it??? it's stated to give "the impression that sirius was the only one for whom james would stop showing off" like??? HELLO??? idk, like yes, the platonic aspect of their relationship IS very important, and i do agree with that, and i generally do just love them as platonic, but i don't personally find it unnecessary to have them be romantic either? like, best friends are in love sometimes. i have seen the light. i see it now. i get it. i just happen to prefer them as platonic and codependent!!! also, intimacy imo isn't always an indicator of romance. i think kissing platonically and even more should be accepted as normal!

(that does not mean, however, that ill never write them romantically, because i think i might someday)

#nah #all these canon moments are so much more tastier platonic #like two boys just being best friends #like it’s so sweet and so important for their characters #and if you’re looking at canon how could u dismiss jily which is literally present the entire time

remus and sirius: what is your favorite thing about the more intimate parts of your relationship?

Remus' side of things. Might reblog with Sirius' later on.

Sirius' perspective. At this point I'm writing essays lol I'm sorry

theoldgayrd

an incomplete, incoherent list of the small ways that joe and nicky are shown to be wonderful and in love:

after they’re all resurrected in south sudan joe immediately runs diagonally ahead to take on the shooters that are in front of nicky, rather than the ones directly in front of himself, so they can work through them together

in the first establishing shot in the train you can see joe and nicky holding hands as they spoon. they’re not holding hands when you get the close up of them sleeping together, so maybe they fall asleep holding hands and their arms just end up wrapped around each other after they drift off

when nile asks how old they are instead of answering with a number or just the era joe frames his answer by when he and nicky met

the way they’re always looking at each other. not just in the heavy glances and winks, but it’s like how you always subconsciously look to the person you’re closest to when you’re in a group when you’re laughing and talking. the way joe was looking at nicky when he was saying the shoes were a particularly grotesque touch, the way they end up looking at each other in the van when the doors open and nicky asks if they can maybe take the chains off them

there’s a tv, joe!/champagne?

nile asks why they stop seeing each other in their dreams after they meet and you see joe draw in a breath like he’s preparing to answer but he stops, and nicky answers like he was finishing joe’s sentence that he never even started

and then nicky looks at joe to prompt him to answer nile’s next question about how old they are

the way nicky doesn’t take his eyes off of joe as he recovers from being stabbed by merrick until joe dips his head for head touch, which is when nicky knows he’s ok

when andy says they can die and nicky looks at joe and joe’s already looking back at him. i won’t even attempt to put words to the expression on their faces.

the way they use italian when they just want it to be just them, it’s a comfort and an intimacy

the shared look after the shakespeare quote. it can be read as them both reacting to definitely knowing that line and also knowing shakespeare, but they also fucking hate this guy immediately

everything that’s not on this list is hereby considered a LOUD way they’re in love

bi-leigh-bi

Can we just talk about the intimacy of this moment? Nicky just waking up, Joe’s relief that he has, staring into each other’s eyes and just reaching, needing to touch. The way their breathing is equally as deep and uneasy, almost gasping. Grasping one another. There’s just so much.

[Greg answering ‘have Joe and Nicky ever been separated willingly or otherwise?’]

“Um…they have never decided they need to take ‘time off’ from one another. if that’s what the question is. They… yknow, it’s a thousand years, there were a few days where they weren’t side-by-side. [podcaster brings up Andy’s year off] Andy going off for 50 years or whatnot, that’s an Andy thing. Joe and Nicky have never been apart for that long. They are absolutely in love with each other, and absolutely take comfort from each other. You know, one of the things I’m actually hoping to get to in a second film is that they’re not identical. They can disagree. they can fight with each other. That doesn’t mean that they love each other any less, or that their relationship is in jeopardy. I’m not a fan of the trope that says 'as soon as people hook up the drama is gone’ because obviously those are people who’ve never been married. I have no interest (…) I’m not gonna break them up. Why would I do that? That’s not who they are. They can be really pissed at each other. But they– neither of them would for a second feel that they’re wrong for how they feel for one another.”
