James, at some point : You speak FRENCH ?? Say something !!!
Regulus : Tu es l'homme le plus beau du monde, mon amour. (You're the most beautiful man in the world, my love.)
James : What does it mean ?
Regulus : It means don't give me orders you fucking bastard
had a dream where regulus was my friend and during a little concert, he played a piece of music so beautiful everybody in the crowd was crying (nothing to do with the fact that i’m currently reading the cadence of part-time poets) and then we hang out together and talk and we were very close and we almost kissed and then i said « i already have a boyfriend that i love, i can’t do that »
I ALMOST KISSED REGULUS BLACK BUT ALL I COULD THINK ABOUT WAS MY REAL BOYFRIEND and if this isn’t the biggest proof of love i could ever give him then i don’t know what it is
no thoughts. juste regulus calling james « mon soleil » thinking he doesn’t know what it means and him letting reg think that because he knows he’d stop and he’d be embarassed if he knew the truth
so proud of James and Regulus for getting their own icecreams, it's the real beginning of celebrity !!!
wait, hold up,
this is a real advert??
YES IT'S A REAL ADVERT
my boys are famous
so proud of James and Regulus for getting their own icecreams, it's the real beginning of celebrity !!!
really interesting to me that in response to zar saying he was stepping back from the fandom and would prefer his works remain inaccessible, i’ve seen three/four responses:
omg this is awful for me (usually with a comment about how they were reading something and hadn’t finished it)
i totally understand zar’s decision, this is really unfortunate that he felt this way
i’m so confused, what did the fandom DO to him
people explicitly going against what was in his post that said he was making his works inaccessible by sharing links to it via google drive. after he’d taken them down.
I’ll give the folks with the number three response the benefit of the doubt that not all of them are on tumblr/twitter/marauderstok etc all the time, but…
Y’all really can’t play the “who did this?? what did they do??” card when you’re holding the smoking gun of your “here’s a link to all of Zar’s works saved on google docs” post.
All jokes aside—
I’ve spoken about this time and again, but authors aren’t machines who exist to produce works for readers—they’re human beings! They have lives! They have other things to worry about! And when fandom becomes Too Much in one way or another, plenty of them will leave because it’s not worth the trouble.
So if you’re devastated that zar “burned down the library of alexandria,” by deleting his works…consider what might have gotten him there?
Consider that he didn’t say “i’m bored of writing” in his post, but instead “its kind of really miserable here, and im having personal issues with it”
Consider! That Authors Deserve to be Treated Respectfully
and maybe don’t go peddling PDFs/Google Docs of their works if they’ve explicitly asked for that not to occur, for fuck’s sake
It’s also really disheartening to see that the majority of the response has largely been “my favorite fics are gone!” instead of “holy shit, one of the bigger authors in this fandom at present has been driven to delete their works.”
The fics disappearing?
Sad, I get it.
A real life person feeling so miserable about engaging with a community that they once found camaraderie and friendship in that they decide to remove themself and all of their works? from it?
A bit worse, respectfully.
I don’t know how many times we as authors have to say that some aspects of this community are shitty, or have to acknowledge that there are absolutely social politics at play in a fucking fandom space that’s meant to be stress-relieving.
How many ways do we need to say that we hate seeing people going directly against the things we’ve asked—putting fics on goodreads/storygraph/amazon, sending our works to Lulus for printing, redistributing our works in PDFs after we’ve taken them down—for the general community of readers to understand that we’re tired of this?
Actions have consequences, and while the direct impact of something like this happening is that a bunch of people are (already) posting about how sad they are that these fics are gone, or being angry with Zar for making a choice he felt was best for him…
The bigger picture? The one that the commodification of fics makes it hard to see?
You are slowly but surely excising authors from this community—whether by being the purity police, harassing authors, making their lives miserable on social media—and one day, you’ll find yourself saying “why aren’t there any good writers anymore?” (which…folks are already saying!)
It won’t be because they don’t/didn’t exist. It’ll be because they heard the screams and turned tail before they had to face whatever vitriol their peers were enduring.
the marauders in Starmania
hello my dear French marauders fans ( and other but you probably not gonna know what I'm talking about)
today, may I present to you the marauders as Starmania characters !
Since almost everybody die in Starmania, I thought I would share angst with more people so I'm gonna start with the most obvious :
Sirius as Ziggy. he literally changes his name for David Bowie, this is the most Sirius thing to do. he also wants to be a rock dancer/drummer depending the version and I think this fits very well. and is gay and work in a record shop like this man IS Sirius.
ofc with Sirius as Ziggy, we have pre-transitionned Remus as Marie-Jeanne, the waitress crazy in love with Ziggy. first of all, we are all in love with barman Remus, don’t lie to me. Marie-Jeanne is clearly depressed so that fits too. and pre-transitionned because Sirius/Ziggy is gay and doesn’t know that Remus is a man (and neither Remus) so that’s why they can’t be together
next we have Marlene as Crystal and that’s not only because she’s blond, I think that like Crystal, Marlene would absolutely love being famous and desired and controlling the life of every people who wants to be someone. and she’s blond
for more angst, Peter as Sadia, aka the traitor because... well he’s a traitor but also because “ Travesti ” fits him well, and Sadia is a very intelligent character but who really wants to impress Zéro-Janvier (the bad guy) who kinda looks like Voldemort with his racist ideas so really Sadia is Peter. he also kills Marlene with is almost canon in this fandom so he has to be Sadia.
next, obviously, Dorcas as Johnny Rockfort for my Dorlene heart. also, the slitherin skittles are definitely a part of the Black Stars. try telling me Evan and Barty wouldn’t love to be a part of this terrorist group, killing people for fun, wearing makeup and crazy outfits. you can’t. and I love a violent Dorcas. and she sees the love of her life dying and choose to die with her wich is also almost canon.
with the name of the group, Regulus would have also fit but for me, he is Zéro-Janvier. first, he is rich. second he is unhappy and wishes to be an artist, someone free. and whatever you can say, politics (and money) fits to Regulus, he is a Black after all.
James as Stella Spotlight, the old sex symbol, probably a soccer, who used to be so strong and handsome and now he’s starting to get old and marries Regulus a little for the money I'd say but because they both want freedom and there are looking for it in each other.
now I don’t know if this happens in the original Starmania but in the new version, we see Regulus and James assistants being in love with each other so I thought of Pandora and Lily. Lily being James manager and Pandora being Regulus advisor and right hand.
and finally, Mary as the Grand Gourou because we believe in a strong woman fighting for the future against a rich white man when she has everything to loose being one of the only reasonable people in this group and being very free sexually speaking
I really hope I didn’t forget anybody and for Roger-Roger, the voice of the news, I have no clues. maybe Andromeda because she watches everybody die, tells the story to Teddy but stay away from the conflict ?
hope this wasn’t too long (yes it is) and go see the new Starmania, it’s incredible !
based on a conversation i really had with my best friend :
remus, the morning after a big gryffondor party: pete, can i talk to you a second ? i made the most incredible but at the same time most stupid thing of my life.
peter: what’s wrong ??
moony: there is a tiny little possibility that, yesterday… sirius and I… we kinda kissed. we actually did more. and I’m totally freaked out, what the hell was I thinking ???
peter, the most observant man in the world (not like james): Am I… supposed to be surprised ? Okay then… MERLIN’S BEARD I HAD NO IDEA THIS WOULD HAPPEN THIS IS A SHOCK
idk smthn about the way that regulus is the brightest star of the leo constellation, making it the "heart" of the lion, and regulus black will forever reside in the heart of gryffindors who love him is so insane to me
I've rarely seen a more validating sentence in my entire life.
i really love the idea of regulus black faking his death.
regulus who was too smart to think voldemort made only one horcrux. who knew the only way to find and destroy all of them was to disappear.
so he makes everbody, including james and his brother, believe that he's dead.
he goes to that cave, steals the lock and gives it to pandora. her and dorcas work on destroyjng it, while barty and evan keep playing deatheaters as a way to keep voldemort busy. regulus focuses on finding rest of horcruxes.
when the girls succeed and find the right way to destroy the locket, he has already located all of them. obviously harry still doesn't exist, so it's not so tricky anymore.
they destroy all of them, and then regulus comes back to fight voldy.
exept once again, he's not stupid. he has two kings man by his side, and shitlot of potion making skills.
voldy dies from a poison, even tho it looks like regulus killed him in a fair fight.
reg becomes a hero, all of his friends live, he makes up with his brother and lily has enough time to figure out that she's a lesbian.
jegulus reconnect, marylily happens, everybody's alive, harry has four parents.
everybody is happy, second wizard war never happened.
some random ravenclaw girl flirting with Remus: did you fall from heaven? because-
Sirius: are you implying that he's the devil? because he definitely is.
James: yeah, in bed.
Peter: with Sirius.
Sirius:
Remus:
ravenclaw girl:
I made this for my mental stability 🤝
band au but it’s just regulus
(oh and james backstage. did he sneak back there? is he the bodyguard?…)
IT’S SO PERFECT
i love that regulus has meaningful tatoo like icarus falling, « toujours pur », a snake… and james has a smiley and a f*cking dinosaur with a crown
Quick little Marlene for youse :)
had a fucking hilarious dream that tumblr replaced the "block" function with the far funnier "glock" function, which did the exact same thing except whenever anyone blocked you a random bullet hole, like a png of a bullet hole, would appear on your blog. discourse blogs were unreadable bc you'd go to the page and the sheer amount of bullet hole pngs stacked over the blogs obscured everything. I woke myself up laughing
