went to a café after logging off from my externship today and did some optional reading for my seminar. one huge pro of this semester is that i barely have any homework after work, aside from my seminar :)) i also love the bulbous lights, they set such a warm atmosphere!

Hello, do you have any marauders fic recs? I’m a big marauders fan but I’m so tired of reading fics where they feel completely out of character, and I feel like you might know something I don’t
Aw man I’m the wrong person to ask for this, I don’t really read fics very often lol. I’ll try to enlist the help of some people whose Marauders opinions I trust and who might have better recs than me (tbh I’m also curious to hear), but I’ll share the few that I’ve come across, too. Apologies if you've already read them.
I think my most relevant rec is The Night Will Always Win by betweenfactandbreakfast, which is a canon-compliant Marauders era fic from 1975-1981. Admittedly I haven’t finished it – tbh I liked it so much that I had to stop reading it, which sounds so incredibly dumb now that I wrote it out, but I was legitimately getting pissed off that I had to do things in real life instead of reading it lmao. Time to take a step back...! Either way, I’ve really enjoyed it so far. And I’ve seen @seriousbrat's inbox turn into a battleground of endless Snape vs. Marauders discourse, so I know their feelings on the characters are pretty similar to mine lol (and hiii I know you have been in this fandom for much longer than I have, so maybe you have some good recommendations?). Basically this is a good fic if you want everyone to be a terrible person <3
The other fic I can rec is Have Your Cake and Eat It by cunegonde, aka my favorite fic of all time (that I could scream about literally foreverrrr but I’ll try to reel myself in!). This is a good fic if you want everyone to be a good person. Also this fic has time travel in it, so it’s like, kind of Marauders era, but not quite? Even though it’s kind of cliche, it’s also incredibly earnest and thoughtfully done, and it has interesting (and imo, realistic!) characterizations of each of the Marauders. Tbf I’m definitely biased toward this author’s work because they basically only write Snupin (my personal fave pairing), but reading their stuff is like, genuinely why are you writing Harry Potter fanfiction and not a full-length original novel, because holy fuck I think you could actually pull that off. Like, I loved this fic so much that I (person who doesn't read fanfic) immediately read everything else they wrote and finished it all in two days... Also this fic made me cry for literally an hour straight (probably the strongest emotional reaction I’ve had to any piece of media ever lol) – even though I knew what was coming. It was just that good.
Unfortunately that’s literally all I got lol. I’m going to tag some people who I think have similar takes on the Marauders as I do – @seriousbrat @remus-poopin @big-scary-bird @saintsenara – hiii, add on if you’d like. And anyone else who has recommendations of Marauders fics with good characterization, feel free to chime in!

going absolutely FERAL abt this kiss i wrote-
"Anakin had a stupid cute look on his face as Rex pulled him up, hands still intertwined as Anakin pulled him in. Their eyes locked together right for a moment before Rex lost control as he pulled his right hand from the bar, cupping the back of Anakin's neck and smashed their lips together in, what he would describe as, the worst kiss in human history. He fucked that up pretty bad, didn’t he.
Rex didn’t know if it was worse that Anakin didn’t pull away, instead, he just stood there. Glancing at the pairs intertwined hands with his beautiful blue eyes before looking his eyes again, "
not me taking a month to write one of the best scenes in this fic, i swear to fuck-

Since he mains Reshiram, i wanted to make his design have some sort of connection with it, make it a little cool cuz i didnt want to make Hilbert bland like in the game and at least have something unique, may look a little weird but i like it💥💥💥
Bonus :
He is a little emo but i lov him so much mwah
