i think dumbledore was growing weed in the forbidden forest the whole time and that’s why it was forbidden. that’s also why he acts the way he does.

when people say “born to be uncle moony forced to be professor lupin” about remus’s relationship with harry i tend to roll my eyes. but they lowkey right. fanon marauders have strayed so far but im sure james and remus were so so close being roommates and remus with lily as well, as he talks about in the books and movies. and harry never even hearing about boris until he’s thirteen? that’s gotta be like if harry’s kids didn’t know ron and hermione. bro

when it’s four people who grew up together and love each other but one of them dies in their early twenties and the dynamic between them changes forever and can never be the same again

Rough Sirius Black who gets into fistfights with people who hurt his friends, whose tongue is as sharp as blades, who is as good at duelling with his wand as he is with his body, who bares his teeth into a smirk as he knows he will win his battles again, who also ruffles Peter’s hair and checks up on Remus in the hospital wing and draws on James’ arm in class and whispers nothings to him. Rough Sirius Black who is also gentle and warm and kind to the people he loves

[lilium-major]

this might get me flamed, but when you twinkify and over-feminize sirius, you are no longer shipping wolfstar - you’re shipping remadora

[lilium-major]

lately i’ve been seeing a lot of criticism of fanon remus’s characterization, specifically in all the young dudes and after it blew up. like, specifically, that he was too mean and angry and masculine, or that he got a lot of sirius’s canon traits (smart, likeable, mean, etc.). when people read atyd, did they not think remus was pathetic? because i always thought he was a little loser-y. pulling up to the train with his new docs that he bought with his drug money, but the matron shaved his head? yeah he’s fourteen he probably looks kinda stupid unfortunately. “he’d never sell/do drugs” it’s the 70s. also if you think a fourteen/fifteen year old selling drugs to buy his friends christmas presents is “bad ass” or makes him tough, who are you. that’s sad. it’s so sad, there were no adults in his life that loved him and prevented him from getting caught up in that. atyd remus always felt like he had nothing going for him. he thought sirius was into him and not james just because remus “let him” and didn’t even consider the possibility that sirius could like him back. that’s! sad! remus had some wins post summer 1977, but after a whole 300k or so words of being an outcast thinking he was unworthy of friendship or love.

and you don’t have to like atyd. i love it, it got me into the fandom, so it will always have a special place in my heart. but if it’s not for you that’s okay! so many people treat it like it’s this canon bible but it’s not. everyone is into different stuff. i just think people missed the point with remus a little bit… his characterization in atyd to me is really beautiful because i think it’s fleshed out and realistic given what canonically happened to the marauders. but you can disagree, and you don’t have to like it.

i genuinely think that the shift from the old marauders to the new one where every straight ship even the canon and most important one (i.e jily) and that whole jegulus/all the other made up ships that make no sense come from a place of fetish. yall LOVE to turn characters into little stereotypes and that whole constant obsession w homosexuality is not helping any cause. most of view view homosexual/queer relationships as more angsty or interesting in a way that’s so strange to me. ships could follow the most standard plot line but still be considered angsty cus they’re queer and why is that? this fandom has taken such a strange turn.

you are making sexuality such a strong and central point in a character importance more than any other trait of their character. and those head canons just end up erasing the most important things about these characters

james potter was a strong and good man. he developed from his arrogant teenage self into a good man fighting for a good cause. but now you made him into a twink that is in love with a death eater/ a member of the family that abused his best friend all his life. james and sirius’s relationship was a central point of their characters. and james’s love for lily is a central point as well??????

sirius being turned into a overly feminine gay drama queen, even though what WAS important about him was his loyalty his strength and his honor??? but all of that was forgotten. HE CAN BE GAY WITHOUT ERASING HIS ORIGINAL PERSONALITY. stop painting him into a stereotype of a gay man.

regulus black is getting the recognition that is to be given to sirius. his character was not some brave rebel vigilante that fought for justice. he was a pureblood supremacist.he was a deatheater. yes he is important to the story but he was not what you made him.

lily evans is the most important character of the series. she’s the reason it exists. her and james’s love is the center point. but it was pushed away by you people to focus on your strange fetishized view of gay men. this MAJOR character whose love for her son and husband literally MADE the story got cast away as a secondary character.

important topics like sirius’sabusive family, lily and james’s courage and love….was remplaced by ridiculized view of characters

make characters gay cus we don’t know anything about them yes okay that’s why wolf star was a major part of the fandom. but the complete shift of every single characters identity is just bullshit.

[lilium-major]

this, all of this. it makes me so angry to see lily evans being cast aside for the sake of a jegulus narrative when the james we know from canon (and most ff up until, like, the pandemic probably) would NEVER be with a death eater blood supremacist member of sirius’s abusive family. it’s so disgusting to see her as a surrogate for james and regulus, or be some woman in the background. she died because of her love for harry, which is because of her love for james, and she saved the wizarding world. and all of it that OP said about jegulus, the new characterization of james, and of sirius, this fandom is so weird about gay men that it reduces and removes women from the narrative and i’m so sick of it.

[itsriotmotherfuckers]

Remus John Lupin is a dorky nerd in tweed and cardigans who is only strong enough to carry books around, and lets everyone walk all over him, and cries when people go on discriminatory tangents about werewolves/queer people, and makes Sirius help him study, and folds his underwear/socks, and drowns in jumpers that are too big because he’s so skinny that he has to choose between them being long enough or tight enough, and he’s always cold, and he has back joint/back pain, and has a snort-laugh, and a little overbite you can only see when he smiles, and his clothes have elbow/knee patches, and he never gets angry because he’s so scared of being a monster

THIS is MY remus lupin

ranting about the fandom ( TW: opinions)

- remus is so badly mischaracterized, the shift from him being a soft sensitive kid despite the violent nature of his condition was so so important but now he is turned into this mean angry alpha male. i feel like the point of him being so sensitive was to contrast w him being a werewolf ya know. bring back weird and awkward remus

- gay ships that are just there because they’re gay is pretty strange. i’m speaking of the whole jegulus/pandalily/whatever new thing ppl come up with i don’t really understand the point of just thinking that making a couple gay makes them more interesting. seems a little counterproductive .

-jily loosing its popularity is killing me. bring back my 7 year slow burn prophecy beautiful love story they are the most important ship

-sirius being a feminine dramatic gay twink. this man was a motorcycle owning rebel strong guy. and believe it or not he CAN be gay and still be that. him being gay ( in our head canons) doesn’t mean he’s a woman

- turning gay ships into basically a straight relationship by making them so stereotypical ( wolfstar w feminine af sirius and strong man remus)

- shipping character that died and fought against a certain ideology and people that were actively apart of the problem is kinda crazy. like jegulily? my brother in christ regulus wanted her dead.

-fanon regulus. he was a strong willed DEATH EATER he wasn’t forced into it or abused by his family. it.is.stated.in.the.book.

-deatheaters are interesting characters BUT don’t tell me people are babying and glorifying them in a effort to explore their complexity.

-some of you are blinded by the fancasts and forgot all about what the characters are.

- the new fan casts are meeeh. they’re not all supposed to be supermodels…

- jegulus taking over the fandom is insane.

-andromeda should be getting the regulus treatement she is what you made regulus into.

-frank and alice should be more loved.

- the romantization of that whole pureblood supremacist squad is NOT cute.

-james potter my beloved.

- i don’t really like the idea of the casanova being remus. i feel like it would james or sirius based on how remus talked about his high school years

- jily is way too important to the universe to be discredited.

-lily evans being put behind regulus is CRAZY. my girl did not die for this bs

-sirius being criticized for leaving is wild. regulus was not abused and didn’t even want to leave. sirius was mistreated.

- i kind of like the idea of the developed character of walburga. sirius said she wasn’t a deatheater. and i like people writing her as a more complex character.

- as much as i love wolfstar, james and sirius’s relationship stays the central point of the gang.

-ships have taken way too much importance over the friendships of the group.

-i feel like a people make female characters into lesbians ( like lily ) just because they are strong characters and it’s weird.

- yes once she got married to james she was lily POTTER and she was a mother just like james was FATHER they’re is nothing wrong with that.

- jegulus/ any ship between a member of the order and a deatheater is just plain stupid sorry but if your head canons goes completely against the core of a character it’s just a wrong statement.

before you start “LEt pEoPle dO whAT thEy WaNt” these are MY opinions

please share yours i love to debate

[jellyfishsempai]

I wish we got a real reunion

[ifyouknowmenahyoudontt]

istg i saw a tiktok ranking the strongest/best characters of the universe and tell me whyyyy they sneaked regulus on hereeeee

my brother in christ this man wasn’t that important ENOUGHHHHH
