#●moony○ rant

[rians-hairclip]

I was just re-reading Hikaru's route again and just wanted to ramble about this;

I really really wish MC would express her emotions more, y'know? Like frustrated, or angry about the whole situation with Hikaru instead of being silent and run away. Like, i wish we would do or say something more after the harsh scolding. Even now, I'm still upset because of that part of the chapter ;-;

But i guess it wouldn't have been a slowburn if it did happened that way. (T_T)

Sorry for the rant, it's just something to get out of my chest. Thank you for reading 😔🙏

"my child is fine" ma'am your child prioritises memorising every single full moon that happened in 1975 over their schoolwork

Remus, who is always quiet and composed around everyone, but lets his silly side out only with Sirius. Sirius is the only one who gets to see that side of Remus, and it's the most special thing Sirius has ever owned :(

One thing that erks me so bad is when people play off Peter Pettigrew as the lost puppy of the Marauders or write him as always off with other people or just simply not as tight knit in the group as the rest of the boys.

THAT IS NOT TRUE! HE IS A MARAUDER HE WAS JUST AS PART OF THE GROUP AS JAMES SIRIUS AND REMUS!

That's what makes his betrayal so heartbreaking and unexpected is because Peter was their brother, he also broke the law and became an animagus in 5th year because he wanted to help his friend, he also stayed up late at night creating the map with them, he also traversed the castle under the invisibility cloak with them. He was apart of them in ever bit.

His betrayal was so devastating cause no one saw it coming, he was probably there with Sirius and Remus waiting to find out the news of when baby Harry was born. He was probably dubbed Uncle Wormtail just as Remus and Sirius were Uncle Padfoot and Uncle Moony.

He was their brother and his betrayal was as blindsided and shell shocking as if Remus or Sirius betrayed James and Lily, perhaps even more because Sirius was suspected due to his Black family heritage and Remus with his Lycanthrophy.

They must have thought oh its definitely not Peter though, Peter is as loyal ad they come, he has nothing in his life that might pull him to the death eater, and depending on which version of Marauders lore you subscribe to Peter is possibly a life long childhood friend of James, grew up down the road always did everything together.

He was the last one they'd expect to be the snitch that's why Sirius told James to make him secret keeper and why James full heartedly excepted that choice. James never would've put the life of his wife and child in the hands of someone if he didn't wholeheartedly believe they would defend them as if they were James.

That's why it's so heartbreaking and that's why everytime I read a fic that plays Peter off as a clumsy guys that just wonders around them I get a upset because that's not who he was and I don't want to take creative liberties away from anyone else but in my fics Peter will get the character he deserves (so you can all cry with me when he ultimately betrays them).

Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.

I think the apothecary diaries broke my roommate

I'm making him watch the anime because I watched it and loved it so much!

Last Sunday we finished season 1 (spoilers btw) and he spent the whole week making little comments about Lakan and his backstory and how sad he is and he even watched an unrelated shorts on YouTube about a couple that spent some time apart and he told me just started crying...

Help, I think I broke him (or the anime did)

Marauders in the kitchen

James Potter is the master of all things savoury. Since he was little, he learned from his parents how to peel, fry, blend, chop, and season all kinds of food. He is in charge of everything when the gang decides to occasionally cook something. His only weakness is sweets. He can not bake for shit.

That's where Peter Pettigrew comes in. Since he likes to munch on cookies and cakes, and those can be expensive sometimes, he taught himself how to bake to save some money. It also gives him time to charge his social battery from long days of mischief with the gang.

Remus Lupin CAN cook, that's why he's usually the one who helps James, as he's got the basic skills. He can make scrambled eggs, toasts, and pancakes if he's feeling fancy, but nothing too complicated (he treats food purely as energy source, not pleasurable experience). He lives for snacks tho and he'll make the best sandwiches in Hogwarts.

Sirius Black is absolutely not allowed anywhere near the kitchen. As someone who grew up being fed already prepared 5 star meals on a silver plate, he can not cook for shit and will even burn water if he has a chance. However, he has incredible bartender skills. Every time there is a party and they don't want to drink straight up liquor, he puts his skills to use. He can make straight-up ethanol taste like juice (it's scary).

There is no way it's been 4 years. I have been playing Obey Me for 4 years now. Incredible. Maybe it will sound strong, but I remember that this game helped me in the most difficult moments and I am grateful for that. Thank you.

stumbled across a blog sharing other ppl’s fanfiction and adding AI-generated photos as “moodboards” and I just want to say - don’t do that shit! AI generated photos are unethical in a plethora of ways, and they don’t even look that good! what you could do instead is search for other people’s work to use as your inspo, and i assure you’ll find so many artists to follow and admire in the process! (of course give credit if you know the artist’s name!)

or better yet - use this opportunity to learn a new skill! you could try drawing yourself! you may not be a natural - hell, i know i’m not, but i enjoy doing it anyway! if drawing isn’t your thing, maybe take up collage or printmaking or needlepoint - there’s literally SO MANY WAYS you can create fanwork (and i’m only talking about visual artwork here! the possibilities are endless) that don’t involve just feeding a few keywords to an algorithm that’s been trained with billions of other people’s work and doesn’t engage with your sense of creativity.

Please, I beg, AI “art” is not a hobby. It’s not creative and I don’t even like to think of it as art. Literally just pick up a pencil or something.

Idols of Starlight have so much potential not just in the storyline, but also trinkets and merchandise that i would not hesitate to buy if it's real.

Phone charms? Yes.

Azuki and Peter plush? Say no more.

Photocards? I have an album ready.

Like, something to bring around y'know? 😔

[losver07]

every time a marauders fic writer is obliged to label their work as "Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling" a fairy loses its wings

[wishicouldkeepconcentration]

hang paiting here? still has me in a chokehold

[ttroubledwaters]

WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH ME THAT I CANT FUCKING SLEEEPPPPPP. It's not that I don't want to anymore, I FUCKING CANT. And yes I'm aware of how many "fucking"s Ive used and I don't think it's nearly enough. IM FUCKIN TIRED, WHY CANT MY BRAIN JUST SHUT THE FUCK OFFFFFFFG. GODDDDDDD.

[all-too-unwell-13]

i hate toxic fandom spaces, and honestly, that's why i've stopped posting sm about certain fandoms that i used to love. i don't understand the insane amount of stigma surrounding character perceptions; everyone is perfectly entitled to creating their own idea for these characters, whether it's canon-adjacent or not. that's meant to be part of the fun of said fandom spaces—people can share their individual insights and thoughts on characters, ships, dynamics, etc. but now there's so much shame in perceiving a character differently to the way the majority of the fandom does, for example.

you're allowed to see a character differently. ship different characters. perceive character dynamics differently. and you're allowed to talk about it. that's kind of the entire point!!!!!

A little rant about my bad sans poly shipkids, Moony and Cright!

Honestly these two are my pride and joy and I love them a lot. I can’t wait to share them with you! Have Moony art while you’re here 🫶🏼

Ok expect me to post a lot about them soon.. this rant was written really quickly so it kinda sucks

ao3 update:

Just switched both my works on ao3 to just registered users as of right now. Apparently some company did a sweep and used all of ao3 for some generative AI bullshit. Which I had no clue about until I got around to opening my phone for the first time this weekend- ugh

It’s so upsetting that some company out there would take everyone’s generous free publications online and try to turn it around to farm their AI hellscape. It actually flabbergasts the fuck out of me how any of that is legal- ESPECIALLY with profit tied to it all. I’ll never understand the logistics of it- it was already bullshit when it came to generative AI art - TRUST me I was mad about that. But the writing? Ah man like that the hell :(

Sorry that turned into a bit of a rant on my end… I plan on writing some more in the near future. Whether it’s another chapter or a one shot of some of my writing as of late we’ll see, but I may just restrict it to Tumblr for a while until things blow over. Not sure we’ll see

Hope everyone’s good ❤️love you all stay safe!

Guess who's not dead!

Guess who also ONLY JUST REGISTERED THAT THEY CAN TRACE THE DCA-

(Click for better view)

Both of these, on mobile by hand, took a day, god damn. I can't draw then from memory, but I can import them and just make 'em sit still! I DID IT, I WIN, TAKE THAT NO-ART-IDEAS!

I did use the blur tool, as well as the bucket tool, so this was faster than it would be otherwise.
