Diligently following a ton of blogs before the TikTok ban because they’ll pry the fandom community out of my cold dead hands 🫡

my thing with lily evans is like. canonically, she only exists in relation to male characters and their romantic/sexual/filial connections to her; obviously this is a sexist position and unideal. But unfortunately a lot of readers decided it’s somehow more #progressive and #feminist to try and correct this unstable m/f dynamic by  reversing it, and (as this post puts it) having her romance a fawning and pathetic baby-man who she is domming and ~pegging~ or whatever. which itself just reveals misogynistic ideas about submissive sexual roles and penetration. (basically: how does james getting pegged or acting “down bad” change a single material thing about lily’s narrative and societal positioning?) 

i think a truly feminist interpretation of her character necessitates an earnest engagement with the full scope of women’s desire— meaning you HAVE to take hetromantic desire seriously insomuch as it is an extremely common experience of female sexuality. you have to do this so you can critique it. and it cant be “het sex good ONLY if the woman has ‘power’ w/in a framework of kink” (i.e “mommy” lily pegs james/reg/barty) because that is also insanely regressive. basically the most nuanced lily evans interpretations are the ones that fully take into account her experience of hetromantic desire in the mainstream/conventional sense; i.e. the gender roles of it all (doe & stag). because this actually opens the door to further discuss the feminist problems that are present in her canon narrative:  loss of identity through the experience of desire, autoeroticization of your own oppression, horror and hetromance as sister genres premised on negotiation & surrender. especially if you are transforming this desire in some way, either by casting it as comphet (in the case of lesbian!lily) or presenting an alternative experience of this same sexuality that calls into question her initial desire for james (in the case of bartylily or other infidelity plotlines).

*before anyone says anything: I KNOW that heterosexual desire is the norm. im not saying that the straighties are being marginalized or whatever, i am talking SPECIFICALLY about the portrayal of female desire in marauders fandom spaces when it comes to lily evans (as a bisexual character who experiences both het & queer desire)

Title: Of Golden Watches and Silver Boxes Chapter Length: 30 Word Count: 204,375 Summary: Regulus Black knew that he was one of the last people any of the Marauders -- Especially James Potter -- would ever want to see again, seeing as one of the last times they were all together Sirius was killed. They didn't believe his gut feeling that Sirius wasn’t truly dead, because they had all been there together when he died. Now, holding a years worth of proof, he needs their help to get his brother back.

An "official" post due to me completing the story, and also my first post of 2025!! Happy New Year to everyone!

[preciousprongs]

realizing you actually really like a ship and just hate their stans is actually life changing. like taking a step back from socials and just reading the fics has really changed my outlook on it.
