Regulus: You should be addicted to shutting the fuck up, James.

James: Hah! You wanna kiss me so bad it makes you look stupid!

Regulus: And so what if I do?

James: …

Hiya ^^

I'm kinda new here, but I really love your writing as was wondering whether you could do a wolfstar x male reader os for me?

I'm thinking that Sirius and reader are in a relatively open relationship and remus is kinda panicking, bc he's having a major sexuality crisis and then one of them notices and invites him to join them to get some experience and figure himself out and they kinda tease him for not figuring out that he's gay sooner, but it's all in good fun and love.

Thank you you much, I'd be really happy if you could do that (no worries if you don't want to though.)

hahaha this was such a cute concept, I had fun daydreaming about it! I've only written I think for one male!reader before so I hope I did it justice!

poly!wolfstar x male!reader or..... I suppose poly!sirius+male!reader x Remus? idk, you decide

CW: gay awakenings, bi-panic, not internalized homophobia BUT Remus doesn't really realize he's allowed to like both girls + boys, coming out/experimentation, suggestive content but nothing is described or explicit

Remus was beginning to think he’s made a terrible, terrible mistake.

Two mistakes, perhaps.

The first one, admittedly, was getting caught.

…

Sirius came bustling into the dorm room with you following closely behind, both damp from Sirius’ post-practice shower that you had clearly been invited to. 

“Gods, that was nice.” Sirius sighed as he fell back, spreadeagle on his bed.

You snorted as you ran a towel through your hair before tossing it at Sirius. “Would have been even better had you and James stopped snickering to one another through the bathroom door.”

Remus let out a snicker at that, earning him a knowing smile from you and a salacious smirk from Sirius.

“Hiya, Moons.” 

“Good practice?” Remus asked awkwardly as he repositioned himself in his chair.

Sirius hummed in acknowledgement as he watched you change into a pair of comfies with a hungry expression. “Just sore now, but this one’s offered to help me on that end.”

You snorted at him again but Remus noticed a slight hint of bashfulness as you pulled a shirt over your head. “You’re such a flirt.”

Sirius made a low sound in the back of his throat as he positioned himself on his elbows; eyes still glued to your form. “Can you blame me? You look good enough to eat.”

And fuck did Remus know it. He watched as the last sliver of skin disappeared as the bottom of your shirt met the top of your joggers, which Remus mourned the loss of. He found he wanted nothing more than to run his fingers through your wet hair and see if he couldn’t convince you to take that shirt back off.

What was wrong with him?

Not only had Remus never even been with a guy, but he was also fantasising about his best friend's boyfriend? He felt like a fraud and just downright despicable. 

Remus had a rather sheltered upbringing; living in the rural coast of Wales whilst being unable to attend school with the village kids meant a lack of exposure to, what his mother would call, less traditional lifestyles. 

Remus enjoyed girls, he knew that because he’d experienced girls. Sirius enjoyed boys, Sirius knew that because, well, he’d experienced boys. And that drove Remus barmy. 

Because you either liked girls, or you liked boys, right? 

So how come he felt as though he’d be equally happy should you or Sirius fall into his bed as he would with the likes of Emmeline Vance? 

“Don’t you agree, Moony?” Sirius asked, startling Remus from his gay panic musings only for him to find the two of you staring at him.

“Sorry?” Remus choked out, causing Sirius’ smirk to grow both wider yet somehow softer.

“Doesn’t he look good enough to eat?” He asked again, using his head to gesture towards you where you seemed to grow somewhat shy.

“Siri…”

“I’ve seen you lookin’, Moons.” Sirius continued regardless of your warning. “First it was just me and I couldn’t really blame you, but now I’m starting to see a trend.”

Remus felt nauseous; Sirius would hate him, surely? Ogling him and his boyfriend like some pervert. 

“M’sorry, Pads.” Remus whispered hastily as he closed his book and made to stand. 

“Whoa, whoa, hang on.” Sirius stopped, standing from his bed to stand in front of Remus with his hands up in surrender; his towel falling sinfully lower on his hips. “I only asked in case you wanted to…you know, join?”

“Join?” Remus parrotted, looking between you and Sirius only to find your eyes glued to the side of Sirius’ face. 

“Well aren’t you curious at all? Isn’t that what all the staring is about?” Sirius continued, his hands falling more relaxed now as he opted to lean against one end of his four-poster bed. 

“Have you ever been with a guy, Remus?” You asked softly then.

“Uh, well, no.” Remus responded horribly awkwardly. 

“Do you want to try?” You continued, smiling at him with nothing but kindness.

And Remus tried.

He tried to search your face for any signs of malcontent, taunting, mischief, or jealousy. But all he found was understanding. 

“Do you want one of us to leave? Do you want to watch? Do you-”

“Watch.” Remus blurted quickly, cutting Sirius off mid-sentence. 

And if getting caught had been his first mistake, that had been his second - agreeing.

Because what had started as Remus watching quickly turned into you offering to do the same for him, which quickly turned into Remus offering the same in return, which then officially found Remus naked, panting, and satiated on his back in Sirius’ bed. 

“You alright, Moons?” Sirius asked half-teasingly, half-earnestly as he rose from his bed to look down at Remus who was still holding onto you for dear life. 

He suddenly felt like he was intruding, which was hilarious considering what the three of you had just done, and Remus tried to ignore the slightly hurt expression that crossed your face when Remus ripped his hands away from you as if they burned.

“Erm, yeah, yeah! No, I’m uh…I’m fine, good.” 

“Do you have any questions?” Sirius continued, one of his perfectly groomed eyebrows arched in scepticism. 

Remus groaned and covered his face with his hands. “None that you can answer, I don’t think.” 

���Why don’t you try us?” You offered then, standing from the bed and retrieving your clothes and tossing Remus’ at him as well. 

“Does this mean that I’m gay?” Remus all but whispered, though Sirius’ surprised bark of laughter let him know that the two of you did, in fact, hear it. 

“This doesn’t have to mean you’re anything, Remus.” You chuckled as you elbowed your boyfriend chidingly. 

“I’m sorry, I’m not laughing at you.” Sirius apologised as he wiped a tear from under his eye. “This is just so funny because you were my gay awakening.”

Remus felt light headed as he blurted “what!?”, looking to you in horror of what Sirius just admitted only to find you laughing. 

“I had always sort of known that girls didn’t exactly…do it for me, but I remember in fourth year you came back about a foot taller and had an ear piercing and then I knew that boys definitely did do it for me.”

“I guess I have you to thank then, Remus.” You said with a wink, and Remus felt his already furious blush migrate down his torso. 

“But…I still think I like girls, too.” Remus mused aloud.

“You’re allowed to like both, Moons.” Sirius emphasised with a nudge to his shoulder. “Or neither, or everyone or whatever…you also don’t need to figure any of that out right now.”

“But now at least you can know that it’s not just in your head, yeah?” You continued.

“Yeah.” Remus agreed breathlessly. “Yeah, thank you…both.”

Sirius laughed again and looked like he found some renewed energy. “No, thank you; fourth year Sirius would die to know I finally got you in my bed.”

“I’ll certainly be fantasising about that for a while.” You continued with a smirk.

Yes.

Remus made a terrible, terrible mistake.

Two mistakes, perhaps.

Because he was officially, well and truly fucked (read: pretty well officially gone for his best friend and his best friend’s boyfriend).

National Coming Out Day-October 11th! *this* part of Alex's speech is so important-the whole speech is-both versions-in the movie, and in the book.

"The truth is every queer person has the right to come out on their own terms, and on their own timeline. They also have the right to choose not to come out at all. The forced conformity of the closet can not be answered with the forced conformity in coming out of it.

This isn’t about shame. This is about privacy and the fundamental right of self-determination which are exactly the principles on which the struggle for queer liberation has always been fought."

this is history being made-this speech-in a movie that is so famous worldwide? and i believe there are quite many people who left the room when this speech was on, or some people who were too distracted by his eyelashes to actually hear what he was saying and it shows. damn, it shows.

so many public figures have been put through it-what Alex and Henry have been put through both in the movie+ the book-UNACCEPTABLE. and so often it's done by queer people, our lgbtq+ community doing this shit to others? THIS CAN'T KEEP HAPPENING.

Becky Albertalli, Kit Connor (just to name a few), and so, so many others. What makes you even think you have a right to know this about ANYONE?

This National Coming Out Day, if you're queer and scared and not "out" yet, I want you to listen to this. Alex's speech. (later on I will post pictures of both FULL SPEECHES(movie +book), it's okay if you don't want to come out, whatever you feel is alright. You don't owe anything to anyone, not your friends, family or co-workers, or schoolmates, no matter what the world around you makes you feel.

you matter, you're important, you're loved, and whatever you decide it's okay.

My maze runner sexuality/gender headcanons!!

These are my opinions guys I don’t mind if you don’t agree lol :) fandoms are meant to be fun!!

Thomas: he is a bisexual if I have ever seen one. Literally saw Newt and teresa side by side and just died. 😭 Instantly. Yk that scene where nick in heartstopper (🏳️‍🌈) is watching pirates of the Caribbean with his mum and he sees those two characters and has a bi panic attack??? That.

Newt: GAYYYYYYYYYY 🫵🫵🫵🫵🫵🫵🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈 BOY KISSERRRRRRRRR!!!!!! In fever code I could imagine Minho saying “I wish we could meet the girls in group B” and Newt fr going “what? Why??”

Minho: either Pan or aroace. I cannot decide. I lean more towards pan for Minho tho 😭🙏 I could totally imagine him seeing people all coupled up and go “ew gross all I need is my handsome self 🤭” but yeah I think he’s pan 🫡

Sonya & Harriet: they are literally aris’s lesbian mums. I will not elaborate. That’s all I have to say. (Jk) MY FAV LESBIANS EVER!!!! I LOVE THEM SO SO SO MUCH!!!!

Aris: saw someone say he’s trans 🏳️‍⚧️ (ftm) and I have never agreed more in my life idc. I will not be convinced otherwise!!! “Uhm.. Canonically!!”LALALALLAALALALALALA 👉😽👈 *blocks ears and runs away*

Gally: unlabelled king!!! If you were to ask him what sexuality he is he would just go “nun ya” and walk off 😭 or “I like what I like” *shoulder shrug* 🤷‍♂️

Teresa: “Teresa likes Thomas!!” Whatttttt!!! Nooooo!!! That is a lesbiannnn!!! (Teresa being a lesbian in fanon is so near and dear to me. If we are talking canon wise I would say bi or straight but SHHHHHHHHHHHHH 🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫)

Brenda: exact same thing as Teresa 😭 Brenda and Teresa being a lesbian couple in fanon is my favourite thing ever gang!!!!! In canon I go: ew yucky but in fanon I go: HHEHEHEEHEHEHEHE I LOVE THEM SO SO MUCH 🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭 I love how in newtmas fics they just take Thomas’s two canon love interests and go “nah their gay for eachother” and I fw it HEAVILY.

All of Jorge’s kids are gay, he is their supportive single dad btw!! I’m ACTUALLY James dashner this is true!!!! Examples:

*Newt and Thomas walk up to Jorge hand in hand*

Thomas: uhh Jorge.. we need to tell you something…

Jorge: *spins around in chair to face them* yeah? What is it? Have you done something???

Newt: no no!! Uhm.. we’re… together.. as in dating..

Thomas: Is that ok..?

Jorge: oh that’s fine, happy for you. No more sharing hammocks though

Newt and Thomas: WHAT?!?! :(

Jorge: there will be no hanky panky in this house!!!! (Heart stopper reference, would he ever say this? Prob not but shh)

Brenda: please don’t say hanky panky.

-

Brenda: Jorge I think I like girls

Jorge: I know?

Brenda: WHAT???

Jorge: a father always knows!!

It has come to my attention that it's Period Drama Appreciation Week 2023. I love period dramas and grew up watching them.

Day 2 of Fest... time to unleash one very big post 👀

You've seen the title on the link above, today I bring you an Alec playlist. But me being me, there's a tiny bit more to it than just being a selection of music I love (it absolutely is, though, don't get me wrong). This is a narrative playlist—in other words, each song represents a moment in Alec's life, in chronological order, and based on my interpretation of (and expansions on) the GoldenEye canon. Oh and... although I didn't put that much thought into this aspect of the playlist, it happens to be mostly British songs, some Russian ones and a few others. Pretty fitting, I would say.

See you below the cut for the full story behind each song :D

Pink Floyd, Another Brick in the Wall pt. 1

Our story starts with Alec being a little orphan in 1950s-60s Britain. Therefore, my choice went to a song about a very similar little orphan—Pink, the protagonist of The Wall. Although circumstances are different, the song tells the same story for both kids: they're lonely and deeply resenting of their father's (or parents') absence... which will be the root of all the ills in their lives.

David Bowie, Life on Mars?

There was a joke between @prismatic-bell and I once. Since Bowie and Alec are so similar in terms of appearance, Bowie must have been Alec's first crush (and therefore, bi awakening). Therefore, there has to be some Bowie in here—and this song in particular is perfect to describe Alec growing up, looking at the depressing Cold War world from his young eyes.

David Sylvian, Forbidden Colours

Speaking of bi awakenings, well this is it. At this stage of the story, young Alec has realised ‘[his] love wears forbidden colours’. And just like in the song, he'll ‘[try] to show unquestioning faith in everything’, from public school to the army. Another brick in his wall, as somebody else would sing.

John Barry, Theme from the Persuaders

The only instrumental in this playlist, but perhaps the name of the composer alone tipped you off on why I chose it. By now Alec is a Royal Marine, and he meets a certain Navy commander—a fellow named James Bond, you might have heard of him. So why the Persuaders and not a classic Bond theme? Easy, just watch the opening of said Persuaders. The parallel editing between the lives of Roger Moore's and Tony Curtis's characters... I dream we could have that for Brosnan!Bond and Alec.

Pet Shop Boys, This Must Be the Place I Waited Years to Leave

So Alec is an MI6 agent now (probably under James's influence). The point here is, he actually loves his job—being in the shadows, not having to be around handsome men in uniform all the time anymore... He's found his place, and he can look back on his younger years as a bad time that is finally over (or is it?) Fun fact by the way, this song could have been the Living Daylights' theme song. It didn't go too far into that process, but still I highly recommend this edit of TLD's credits with the song over it.

Frankie Goes to Hollywood, Relax

‘Not having to be around handsome men in uniform all the time anymore’... yeah. Well, there is still is one ridiculously handsome man Alec is around all the time—James. Cue more bi panic, growing jealousy, and, of course, sharing everything absolutely everything. Doesn't help that Relax, an extremely gay song (enough to be banned by the BBC when it came out...), is the hot thing on the radio back in those days...

Tears for Fears, Shout

Alec has just earned his 00 status, and he has many scores to settle with life... so he's going to shout, and life is going to hear him. Case in point, his bullets.

a-ha, The Living Daylights

A continuation of the previous song. This is Alec and James living the high life as 00 agents, full of broken gadgets, expensive food and clothing, private jokes and other code phrases. An excuse for me to shoehorn my favourite Bond song in the playlist? Absolutely. a-ha's synth version of it, too—as much as I love Barry's version (the one used in the movie), I have to say this one is vastly superior.

Public Image Ltd, The Order of Death

Oh no. Alec has been too curious and got his hands on his MI6 file. Now he knows everything. The Lienz Cossacks and their betrayal by the British; his parents' survivor guilt; the fact his name shouldn't be Trevelyan but his parents' Russian name (Trailin, in my headcanon); the fact MI6 knew his origins and still got him to work for them (if it didn't have a say in how he was brought up...) He wanted to know, now he's got his answer. Whether he likes it or not.

Secret Service, Flash in the Night

Alec is depressed. He doesn't really know yet what to make of everything he learned in his MI6 file. He looks at James but he knows he can't tell him anything. James is part of the system that betrayed his parents, then betrayed him in turn. James can't possibly understand how it feels like. Yet again, Alec is alone. The scar once healed forever dissolves in the rain, as the song has it.

Кино, Спокойная ночь (Kino, Spokoynaya noch'—Calm Night)

Not too long later, a still depressed Alec is wandering in Soviet streets during a mission. Moscow or Leningrad, who knows (one day I'll have to choose, because I really want to write a one shot based on this song). Ideas are coming to him, but they aren't really clear. The only sure thing in all this is that he's starting to feel a lot more Russian than British... hence the inclusion of the first (and not last) Soviet rock song in the playlist.

C.C. Catch, ‘Cause You Are Young

Probably the same night, Alec stumbles on an underground nightclub blaring Western songs. After all, it is the mid-1980s, and Gorbachyov's USSR slowly starts to allow such music within its borders (censorship is still there, though, as proved by the blurb on the Soviet edition of Frankie Goes to Hollywood's second album not mentioning a single thing about Relax. Western music, okay, but gay? How about nyet) Anyway, my point: Alec hears this obscure German pop song, and suddenly everything starts to fall into place in his mind. A wake-up call, if you will. What he needs now is to catch his freedom from MI6, whatever the cost.

Depeche Mode, Personal Jesus

Janus is born. Alec's Personal Jesus, the persona that will give him his freedom from—and revenge on—Britain. The inspiration behind this choice of song comes from Brigada, the most famous Russian TV show of all time. Basically, the story of a group of friends in the late 1980s who go on to become a powerful mafia group in the 1990s. In the first episode, the protagonist decides to commit his first crime over Personal Jesus... and commits said crime in an underground nightclub that blares ‘Cause You Are Young. Small world, I know.

Peter Gabriel, We Do What We're Told

Alec is preparing his plans to fake his death and truly become Janus, but in the meantime he has to pretend everything's fine. So he does what he's told... like in his childhood, like in the army. He absolutely hates it, but he knows his patience will pay off.

Propaganda, p:Machinery

One word: Arkhangelsk. The planning phase is over, the day has come for Alec to make his move and disappear from the face of the Earth. Except that, as we all know, not everything goes according to plan... Fun fact, I just learned that this song was greatly influenced by David Sylvian, of Forbidden Colours fame. The world doesn't get any bigger, does it?

Pink Floyd, Hey You

In a Soviet hospital, Alec recovers from his Arkhangelsk wounds... and falls deeper into depression. But with Janus on board, depression takes on a much more threatening face. Alec is despaired, but he also wants to kill. That should distract him from despair.

Nautilus Pompilius, Воздух (Vozdukh—Air)

As the USSR slowly dies, a new organisation comes to be—the Janus Syndicate. It's only the early days, and it probably doesn't really ressemble what we see of it in GoldenEye. But it comes at a time Soviets themselves are growing disenchanted from their world. as everything crumbles down, even law enforcement doesn't see any point in catching criminals anymore (as told by the lyrics). Exactly the kind of fertile ground the Syndicate needs to grow.

The Rolling Stones, Sympathy for the Devil

There's a newcomer in Alec's life—a certain Xenia Onatopp. Is she a cis or trans woman, I'll let you choose. What she definitely is, at least, is someone who wants absolute freedom, even if it means harming others (a cause Alec can relate to). That, and the kind of untamed energy that would greatly benefit from being given a direction. For instance... working for Janus? Unless it is dominating Janus in the bedroom... my Alec is bi for a reason, after all.

Depeche Mode, Never Let Me Down Again

Do you know Scarface, and more specifically the Push It to the Limit segment? Well picture that, but with Alec as Tony Montana, Xenia as Manny Ribera, the freshly renamed St Petersburg instead of sunny Miami... and Depeche Mode instead of Giorgio Moroder's music (with the caveat that Alec clearly didn't get married back in those days, because there's only one person he'd marry: James). These are the heydays of the Russian mafia, when some people who previously knew nothing of capitalism became dizziyingly rich overnight... and fought each other to death for more power. The days of the Gulf War, also—when the Janus Syndicate sold stolen Red Army weapons to Iraq. Pop quiz, do you know what the mafia bosses who survived those turbulent times are called today? Oligarchs. Kinda sheds a new light on Alec, I won't lie.

Tina Turner, GoldenEye

I had to include it. There's no two ways about it, this is the ultimate, canon Alec (Bondalec, even) song. Just look at the lyrics, and tell me this isn't Alec spitting all his jealousy on James. Xenia would be just as menacing, yes, but nowhere near as salty. So where are we in our story for me to include this song? Well, just at the beginning of GoldenEye proper: Xenia has met James in Monte Carlo, and tells Alec as they prepare to steal the Tiger (yes, Xenia's accomplice in that scene is Alec. Fight me). Cue a very sour laugh from Alec, who cannot believe fate has put James on his path again. Not that it really matters to him at this point though—all he's focused on is his upcoming revenge on Britain, and if James has to be a bystander, then so be it.

Midge Ure, The Man Who Sold the World

James wanted to be set up with Janus... well, he's got what he asked for. Janus, in person, at the statue park. Alec, alive and with a murderous intent. Again a song with a connection to Bowie, as you might have noticed... but unsurpringly I prefer the very 1980s, synth-heavy version by Midge Ure. Bowie, hmmmm... a hint towards renewed bi panic on Alec's part? You'll know soon enough.

Nautilus Pompilius, Нежный вампир (Nezhniy vampir—Tender Vampire)

A little interlude before we enter the endgame. The tender vampire here is Janus, of course—dragging Alec's better self into the abyss, being so jealous of James he starts circling around Natalya like a hungry shark. The absolute creep we see in the train scene, in short. For the record, I know this song from Brat, another very famous Russian movie about the 1990s mafia (I'll probably run a watchalong for it later during this Fest, so stay tuned 👀).

Propaganda, The Murder of Love

Train scene, act 2: the Mexican standoff. Alec and James face each other again, but James still doesn't really have the upper hand. So Alec (well, Janus) spits more poison at him, this time a lot more personal and hurtful. And yes, the bi panic is firmly there, as smug as Alec tries to look. He knows he can't kill James, but he also knows he can't let James talk to him. Alec can't be diverted from his revenge on life itself, because that would be acknowledging that all the time and effort he put into that goal was a waste. Therefore, he prefers to gloat at James... in other words, to be the victim who's become the judge, and to make James plead for mercy.

Pet Shop Boys, I’m Not Scared

Well, this particular one originally wasn't in the playlist. But the moment I first heard it, I knew I had to include it. This has to be James's answer to all of Alec's venom in GoldenEye and The Murder of Love. James has always loved Alec, and doesn't understand how Alec could have grown so scorned and spiteful. Are Janus and Alec really the same person? Will he have to kill Alec? If he does, will James ever be able to forgive himself? If only he and Alec could talk heart to heart... as @3nigm4art commented about this song, Alec would cry if he heard James singing it to him. Perhaps he could even be reasoned... So what I envision here is the beach scene, with James looking at the sea asking himself all those questions—and Alec, somewhere in his lair, being unable to take James out of his mind.

Leonard Cohen, First We Take Manhattan

We are now in the Janus control center in Cuba. Xenia is dead by now, but Alec probably hasn't really processed that yet. After all, he has other things on his mind: his scheme coming so close to completion... and James right in front of him, watching and commenting what he sees. Alec likes this, in a way—what better witness to him becoming a literal god than James? He's not jealous anymore at his point, because in his mind, he's won. He's done the impossible: destroying Britain, and beating James. But there's an issue here... being so drunk with his triumph, he forgot that James won't let himself be just a passive bystander. Which surely won't come back to bite him in the arse, will it?

Pet Shop Boys, It's a Sin

As everything explodes around him (literally), Alec loses it. James has stolen the triumph he deserved to get. Therefore, James will die. By Alec's hand. Ensues the fight on the antenna. Alec probably knows he won't survive it, but he doesn't care anymore. All his rage, all his jealousy, all his frustration are what fuels him at this point—with glimpses from his past flashing before his eyes, as the song suggests. He has wasted nine years of his life, and the rest of it in fact. His whole life has been nothing but sin, from his origins and attraction to James to becoming a spy then a mafia leader. So if there's no turning back... at least he'll go out with a bang. And hopefully take James with him.

Кино, Легенда (Kino, Legenda—Legend)

The story ends here. Alec falls to his death after James lets him go, and James has to live with the memory of Alec haunting him. But is it what really happens? If anything, this song is here to be an open ending. It is an elegy, yes, but it could be Alec singing it. Since death is worth living, but love is worth waiting, maybe he survived and has to piece himself back together at James's side. Or maybe it's James who fell. You decide, but at least there's one thing we can all be sure about. Credits might roll, but Alec's legend never ends.

(Thank you so much for reading, and listening ♥️ I put a lot more energy into this post than I thought I would 😅)

A jegulus fanfic prompt.

Burlesque (the movie) jegulus edition.

James is Jack, with lily as his fiancé (epilogue she gets with either Pandora or Mary)

Regulus is Ali

Sirius is Tess (Cher’s character)

Remus is Sean (Stanley tucci’s character)

Marcus is Barty Crouch Jr (it was with barty or Snape and I wouldn’t put regulus through that)

Marlene is Nikki (the mean girl, with the added bonus of Dorcas being her gf)

For shits Peter is Vince (Sirius’ ex husband)

Mary (or Pandora) as Georgia (the girl who Ali replaced) (but if it’s Mary instead of being married and pregnant, she breaks a leg. Pandora wouldn’t be married but be pregnant with luna [Planned with a sperm donor]) ( added bonus of pandalily/marylily ending up together, lily was distant because she had a bi panic because a pretty girl so she ran but when James breaks up with her (but not actually in her eyes) she panics because James was a constant and she didn’t want to lose that)

Slight changes: Sirius and Remus are together (even though Sean and Tess aren’t, because Sean is gay but we dont have that in this since both are gay) but no one knows. Everyone just thinks they are boss ass business partners. Regulus finds out they are together when lily comes back and says she and James aren’t broken up and he flees to Remus.

Regulus and Sirius are still brothers but regulus ran away from home not long after Sirius did but they lost contact until regulus came to la looking for a job and ended up at Sirius’ burlesque club and Sirius hires him as a waiter. Regulus loves dancing though and after Mary (or Pandora) can no longer dance he gets that job (much like how Ali does in the movie).

Regulus is the only male burlesque dancer other than Sirius

at first i was only watching Vikings: Valhalla for Bradley James (who hasn't shown up yet to my disappointment) but now I am invested into Leif and Harald.

Those two were fruity from the beginning. The whole: "You're a very impressive speaker. You moved a lot of people. (L)" "Did I move you? *smoulder and flirty tone* (H)"

Harald fucks Freydis then meets Leif and is like bi panic oh no I want that one. You cannot tell me that is not what happened during the court hearing thing. Harald literally was like, "nah, you can keep the girl. I want him (starts to wax poetic about why they need him)"

When Harald sees the two dead bodies on the boat and immediately looks towards Leif and comforts him because it doesn't matter if he killed one or both or none it's weighing on him and Harald won't have that. Did you see how Leif straightened up after Harald said "viking"?? well i did

Oh and "you can't go back for a dead man." like one scene later Harald standing above Leif, he went alone to get his bf out of there.

anywho i'm completely normal about this show and it's definitely not my newest hyperfixation

[draculovemp3]

for the character ask game: james wilson house md :3

I was asleep when I got this one but HAI^_^

Sexuality HC: worlds gayest heterosexual man . Bi but like he’s got a emotionally rough job and several alimonys to pay he’s not thinkin ab all that. Except when house is in the perimeter. If gay marriage was legal in NJ before 2013 the divorce number would be unimaginable ❤️.. Most importantly no matter the sexuality he’s a harlot

Gender HC: in similar above terms: world’s transsest cis man <3 ummm yea sure he’s cis w/e but also he’s so some trans guy. I also can Butchify anyone. Guards turn wilson into a masc woman

A ship I have with said character: gee i wonder…. Hilson should have been canon so they could be wilson divorce no.4. The divorce is just for fun bc house wants to flex the embarassing number of divorces & also have his own 1❤️. Happily toxic remarried. But idk that’s an average statement from Oscar hilsondivorce innit. Also house/cuddy/wilson is the unethical ethical polycule ever.

A BROTP I have with said character: the hypothetical interactions Wilson and Cameron had when he left ppth post-WH/HH is so special to Me…. Also um cuddy and wilson bitchy besties obv.

A NOTP I have with said character: IDFK whatever’s done boringly. I don’t vibe w the occasional cameron/wilson I’ve seen ig

A random headcanon: idk why but I think he reallyy likes sour candy :p also the first time he ever noticed a smidge of grey hair he freaked out and dyed it brown/match but noticing the nondifference stopped bothering after that one panic. also bc he knows it’d give house ammo to switch the dye w crazy colors more than he’s already tried before

General Opinion: tbf thru my first watch while I Did love him he wasn’t even top 5 charas. Thru my rewatch he’s making me insane❤️…. What the hell is up w this Guy. I need to open his gut up and see if he just has parasites that make him say & do All that:/ shoutout to awful Manwhores with hearts as big as their hair in media we don’t have enough of him

SEND ME A CHARACTER AND I’LL DO THE FOLLOWING^

On it said ‘1980.’

“OMFG!!! Im back in Tim again!!!!111” I screamed loudly. Suddenly Satan(dis is actually voldimort 4 photo refrenss!). Voldimort wuz wearing a blak leather Jackson, blak tight jeans and fishnet pantz. He looked so sexah I almost had an orgy!!!!11

“OMFG Paul Shadow Omnipotentia Raven Face Landers r u ok.” He asked gothikally.

I guessed dat when I had slit mi wrists I had went bak in tim instead of dieing. I knoew I could go forward in time if I found a time-toner or da tim machine.

“No ur not dead.” Satan reassured suicidally as he smokd a cigarette sexily and smoke came all over his face. “Ur a vampire so u kant die frum a bullet. You should know that you can only die from slicing your wrists with a steak. Cum on now lets go c how Hairy’s dad is doing.”

I noo dat da real reason I didn’t die from da ballet was koz I was from da future. “WTF!!!! James almust shot Luciious!!!” I said indigoally. I knew that James had really ben possezzed, but I didn’t want him2 know I knew.

“Yah I know but he had a headache he wz under a lot of stress.” Satan reasoned evilly.

“I guess that’s ok.” I said because James hadn’t really shot Lucian. Also I noo that Lucian wood now have 2 arms instead of 1. I walked seduktivly outside with Satan. Suddeni I saw a totally sexi goffik bi guy!!!!!11 He had bleched blond hair wiv blak streaks up 2 his ears and he wuz wearing goffik blak iliner, a blak Green Day shirt (it showed billy joel wiv bolnd hair since it was da eighties), blak congress shoes and black baggy pants. He walked in all sexly like Gerrd way in the vido for I Don’t 3 u lyk I did yesterday and you cud see a blak tear on his face lyk da wmn in dat video. “Hey.” He sed all qwietly and goffically.

“Who da fuck is that?” I asked angrly cos I did nut kno him.

“Dis is…Hedwig!!!!!!!!!11” Sed Volximort. “He used to be in XBlackXTearX 2 but he had 2 dropp out koz he broke his arm. Or his wing I guess. He is an owl after all. And a girl. So I guess she broke her wing because she is an owl.

“Hey Hedwig.” I said seductively evn tho I wuz nut tring to b.

“Lol hi stranger I have never met before but I guess because of your immense beauty I shall call Paul Darkness Great Mal Omnipotentia Raven Face Landers.” He answered but then he ran away bcos he had hair of magical creature. Some would call them feathers. He was humming Welcum 2 da Blak Prade under his breth( I no dat is not 80s but pretend it is ok!!)

“Bye.” I sed all sexily.

“Dat was Hedwig. He used 2 b my boifreind but we broke up.” Satan said sadly, luking at his blak nails.

“OMFG I can get u bak 2gether!” I said fingering something I didn’t know wuz in my pocket- a blak Kute is What we Aim 4 cideo ipod that I could take videos wif (duz ne1 elze no about dem??? dey kik azz!!!!).

“Ok u can 4get about ur class for now, Hedwig. Im going 2 show u something grate!!!!1” I led them to da Great Hall. “Cum on u guys.”

Lucian, James, Serious and Snake were all in da Grate Hall. Lucian woudnt talk wiv James because he had tried 2 shoot him.

“Go fuk urself you fukking douche!” he shouted at him. “Richard is never gong 2 b frends with vampire now!!1 Though I have no idea who these two people are anyway because I'm 16 and from a different time!"

“Yah go fuck urself Samaro!” Snape agreed but I noo he wuz lying koz it had been his folt James had almost shot Lucian.

“B quiet u guys.” I said sexily. Mi plan waz working oot great. Now I kood make Voldement good wivout doing it with him! Now Vampire’s dad wood never die and “OK Satan and Hedwig, u guys can start making out.” I said and I started 2 film dem wiv da ipod. Because making a gay porn is totally the way to true love! And if you disagree with this I will bring out the homophone again!

“Kool.” said Serious as Voldemort and Hedwig started 2 make out sexily. We watched as tdey started 2 take each odderz cloves off sexily. Samaro, Serious, Snake and Lucian all watched koz dey wer prolly bi. I noo Snape was bi.

“Oh my fukking god!!!! Voldimort! Voldimort!” screamed Hedwig as his glock touched Voldemort’s.

But suddenly everything stopped as da door opend and in kame………………Daddy Till and Mr. Norris!!!!111111111111  

Daddy Till was carrying Mr. Norris in his arms and stroking him like an evil villain. "What are you doing here?!" I screamed all sexily and suicidally. "Do you think you can just walk in here and expect to be part of this very hot, spontaneous, true love, steaming gay porn scene?" "No Paul Darkness Elementia Raven Face Landers," he said while he was still stroking Mr Norris the cat, "I expect you to die!".

"NOOOooooOOOOooooo!!!!" I screamed, and everything went black again.

Vampire Prongsfoot

Oooo this is exciting! I love this au so much.

So basically, it’s initially set in the 1920s, from James’ perspective. He’s a boxer, often wins his fights. At one match Regulus approaches him and hands him a card, all that’s on it is an adress and the name of a club, and is told he’d fit right in. James gets excited and thinks it’s an underground fighting ring.

When he gets there, he descovers it’s very much not a fighting ring, and actually a queer speakeasy, lots of flamboyant and half naked people. Not a moment after he sits down, a woman takes the stage in a glamorous gown and starts to sing. James instantly wants her, but as she wanders through the crowd James notices a few odd things about her appearance, like she has a man’s chest… she promptly plonks herself down in James’ lap and sings to him, and James realises it’s not a woman, and in fact a man, and he promptly goes though a bi panic.

Also, sirius is obviously the singer, and a vampire as well as regulus. They co own the club, and to bring in extra money when they don’t have access to their regular funds, sirius prostitutes herself off (they’re gender fluid by the way). After the show she approaches James to entice him back to his room, James is new and clearly enamoured and confused by regulus.

Sirius expects James to be like most men. Fuck him, pay him, leave and come back next week. But he’s not, James wants to get to know sirius. He pays to talk to sirius before they eventually get frisky, and James is gentle. James also keeps coming back more often than most. They fall in love, and it scares sirius because he’s kinda a vampire and doesn’t want to change James.

BUT THEN! Something awful happens, and the black brothers have to flee, and James is left heartbroken and… and… oh my god he’s a vampire what the hell!!?!? A broken hearted vampire. Will he ever heal? Will he ever find love again? Who knows! Not James apparently.

My take on Jegulily and their relationship

First off, Tall Regulus and plus-size lily 💕

I also like the rare take of established reglily approaching James.

-

-

Reg and lily secretly dating during hogwarts. It started as a friendship after reg assisted lily when she was being harassed by snape.

In this Au, lily convinces reg to leave grimmauld. In his last two years at hogwarts he lives with his uncle.

Reg and lily decide to make their 'friendship' known after that.

Remus is first of the marauders to find out what's really going on and all three start hanging out and having study sessions in the library

Cue jealous James potter (and Sirius by extension)

Lily often sits at the slytherin table (protected by reg's friends) and james is just watching with a pout but also finds himself sneaking glances at reg.

Reg notices this and schemes with lily.

They time it right and james runs into them making out.

Cue James' bi panic. He should be jealous but he's absolutely not.

After noticing James' reaction, Lily puts two and two together. She tells reg that she does have a crush on james which she's worried about but reg is just like "same"

James noticeably stops pursuing lily but like canon this leaves room for them to get to know each other better.

This of course leaves reg and james to be on more friendly terms as well.

After a year spent on hogsmeade trips, study sessions, nights on the astronomy tower, letters sent during break, & seeking comfort from each other, they fall into a relationship.

(Throughout all this, wolfstar is in the background with Sirius confused as all hell and Remus is just like: I love you and yes I know what's going on but im not telling you).

Post hogwarts:

I see lily working as a healer or potions specialist. Or even becoming the potions professor at hogwarts at some point.

I see reg working as an unspeakable or maybe a freelance curse breaker that occasionally requires him to travel alot.

This is where my house-husband James hc shines. He did work as an auror briefly but once harry was born this man just wanted to stay at home and take care of his son.

hi! if you were to say which english football player are lgbt who would you say? this is coming from a bi girl so no hate just wondering!! my money's on mason mount, reece james (maybe WITH mason mount) and jack grealish

Hi anon! Thanks sm for asking me 💗 hmm…this is a tough one, as I haven’t really subjected the English footballers to my gaydar all that much (which is kinda surprising, given how much time I devote to finding the fruity in footy), but I like a challenge! I definitely agree with you about Mason Mount and Jack Grealish (Jack oozes bi energy imo, so I don’t think he was ever in doubt 🤷‍♀️). I’ll be honest: I’d never thought about Mason Mount and Reece James together (usually when I think of Mason Mount with anyone, my first thought is Declan Rice 😂), but after consulting the evidence, they really kind of work? I’m picking up a ���vibe✨. I like the way you think! As for the other English players, Jude Bellingham might actually be the least straight Englishman of the bunch imo. At the very least, he came down with a serious case of gay panic at the 2022 World Cup. I present to you exhibit A, which you may or may not have already seen:

I’ve always kinda thought Marcus Rashford and Jesse Lingard had something going on as well, something beyond just friendship. They banter and bicker like an old married couple and I love it 😂 idk, there’s a little spark. I see it in the way they look at each other (especially Jesse, who always looks at Marcus like he makes the world turn). I see it in the way that whenever they’ve played on the same team, Jesse would always be the first to step in and defend Marcus and Marcus would do the same for him.

Here’s some of my favorite moments of them:

Oh, the sweet relief of being in Rashy’s arms

Just two bros resting against each other or whatever

Because there’s no injury a little head pat/head rub combo from Beans won’t solve

The best way to tell if two people are in love? It’s all in the eyes 😍

“Maybe if I share my earbud with him, I’ll have a subtle excuse to touch him in front of millions of people.”

“No babe, they’re not worth it!” *grabs titty*

And obviously I’d be remiss if I didn’t include two crucial pieces of Jarcus heritage…I’m sure you guessed it: the classic “Ney, sunny innit?”, and its equally chaotic sequel, “Ney, freezin’ innit?”. I mean, what kind of person would forget about a saga like that?

I guess this kinda devolved into a Jarcus tangent, anon…oops 🤣 long story short, I’m sure there’s some English footballers I’m missing, so if there’s anyone you feel should have made this list, let me know (that goes for any of you reading this too 😁)! And you don’t have to agree with me either, these are just my thoughts on the matter :)

[borathae]

hey hey hey

okay so here it goes

So I was thinking about how MV!tae proapably wasn't interested in Jungkook prior to "Rache", or maybe he was but wasn't going to do anything. I imagine that cell incident just woke all of the sexual yearning inside of him you know especially after he left emprisonnement he just was so deprived of touch and affection and his grief for jimin made him just incredibly parched for a romantic/sensual connection with a boy.

So one night my boy just can't get kookie out of his head, what had happened, his touch, his mouth, eyes and skin and you know how tae is a such an artist and creative he decides to put it in pen. he writes the mostly explicit sexual letter confession you can think of (I GOT THIS IDEA FROM ATENEMENT MOVIE) detailing what he wishes to do to him etc but it's like the atonement movie, full of yearning, filthy and carnal and full of need but sentimental tae style vocabulary and sweet talking. and it helps him get it out of his system, with koo being away with yoongi so he hides that letter and forgets about it.

NOW, present day jungkook was one day in tae's atelier maybe he was looking for something or tae asked him to look for a specific document and he finds it!

I really thought of it as a drabble first where you'd write either: 1. the content of the letter simply to us or 2. the incident where jungkook finds it and confronts tae and what happens after.

ok that what i was thinking of i'm sorry if it's too lengthy sibigirl but i just love this idea so much and i love the atonement movie so much maybe tae even got this idea from the movie idk

Not you mentioning Atonement, how DARE YOU listen. I watched this movie when I was like fifteen and even back then I was broken by it. I think I need to rewatch it now with my mature and wise mind (LMOAOA KIDDING I'm still an idiot, just more romantic and soft afnadsnf) and get my heart broken 😭😭😭 also back then I didn't know I was bi yet, so I think if I rewatched it now I'll just lose my mind over James McAvoy and Keira Knightley equally fnadsnf 😶 EITHER WAY FAJDFJ that was my rant about beautiful people and sad movies fandsfn

i feel like Kookie would be way too polite to actually open the letter at first

because Tae stored it in an empty envolope with no receiver on it

so he'd just go "what's this?", pick it up and then put it away again

"nothing for me" he'd say innocently and go looking for the document Tae needed

meanwhile Tae had a moment of panic watching the entire scene unfold, secretly going "fuck, fuck, fuck"

but then when kook puts it away again, a wave of dissapointment overcomes him

"why didn't he open it?" he would keep thinking that all throughout the day

they would spend the day together painting next to each other and listening to music

and while koo is all like "lalala" singing happily to the sings whilst painting a sundown

Tae can't help but think about the letter

he forgot about it too and only remembered that he wrote it when kook picked it up

and NOW HE NEEDS KOOKIE TO SEE IT

DESPERATELY

he needs it to BAD

so after kookie left for the day, Tae made up a plan

it wasn't even a great plan

he places the letter next to Kook's half-finished painting, knowing that he will see it the next day

and he did

at first Kook was confused going all "huh? what's that envelope doing here?"

while tae is all like "I have no idea, perhaps you forgot it yesterday?"

and sweet koo goes all like "I did? I can't remember."

while Tae is all like secretly inside "JUST OPEN IT OMFG!" but to Koo he is all calm and collected "perhaps you should open it?"

and kook hahaha he goes "but I don't know if it's for me. I can't do that, it's rude."

and Tae literally wants to throw something because how CAN SOMEONE BE SO BLIND TO WHAT IS GOING ON??

but to him he goes all "you won't know until you didn't open it. please I am so curious what it is"

and so Koo does and he begins reading

while Tae sits on needles

he watches how Kook's face gets redder and redder and how he begins to fumble more and more

and by the time the letter is over, Kook is breathing heavily and his pupils are so obviously dilated

and he lowers the letter

the silence between them is fucking intense

tense and heavy and so goddamn suffocating

Kook is silent and Tae's thoughts are racing

why isn't he saying aynthing? why is he looking so shocked? does he hate it? was he too disgsting in the letter?

Tae is SCARED

and then Kook moves

using his powers for it and leaving Tae no time to react

one second Tae is sitting by his painting and the next he finds himself colliding with a wall

HARSHLY

like the kind of roughly and harshly that a human would probably walk away with broken ribs

but Tae isnt in pain

no, Tae is moaning because Kook is holding him, pressing him against a wall as a second later his lips claim his' in a passionate kiss

no words needed to be exchanged because their bodies will do all the talking

[darkshrimpemotions]

While we're talking about the whole male power fantasy thing... they tried so hard to accomplish that and we got... whatever we got instead

Well it's 7:16am and I can't sleep so welcome to my insomnia thoughts but YES. EXACTLY YES. Like.

Other writers have already written more and better on this topic but when you push too hard at the Manly Man Who Does Man Things button you WILL eventually spill over into Man Who Does Men territory. It's just inevitable. The hypermasculine power fantasy is a drag persona. No real man operates that way. Trying to have a character or story embody that was always going to come off queer to queer audiences (and/or anyone bothering to think critically about the show for .5 seconds or more).

And like. See my On The Road tag for more on this (like a goddamn dissertation on this) but I also think a not insignificant amount of the reason for that is that the very archetype of (white, because let's be real, SPN is very white) American Manhood they were working off of was. Always queer.

Like. On the Road. James Dean. Even Han Solo (or really any Harrison Ford/Lucasfilm collaboration from the 70s-80s). These are all stated inspirations for Dean in particular. Which isn't surprising! That image of masculinity is so engrained in the white American psyche. It's the blueprint nerdbros like Kripke build their power fantasies on and has been for...most of my fucking life, now that I think about it.

But those archetypes come from a very queer place--that gets handwaved or censored or ignored, sure, but it still exists. On The Road is still Jack Kerouac's vaguely horny bi panic journal whether the scores of straight men (and "straight" men) who love it so much want to acknowledge it or not. James Dean was bisexual whether the guys who cream their pants over his car (because there's definitely no homoerotic displacement going on there) want to think about it or not.

And Han Solo...listen. Do I think there's secret gay subtext intentionally written into Han Solo's character? No. Do I think there sure is some tension and subtext between him and Luke and him and Lando anyway? Absofucking lutely. The character (and frankly all of Star Wars) is also camp as hell, but that's a discussion for another day, preferably one when I've had sleep.

I could also go on a whole rant about how of course the queer aspects of these character archetypes get ignored and attempted to be excised in each successive iteration, because many straight men view queerness with a sort of abject horror only rivaled by that with which they view women (daily reminder that another big inspo for SPN was "Buffy but Manly Grrr").

Thus SPN really embodies this cultural anxiety about masculinity and perceived "threats" to it in a unqiue way that somehow combines the worst gender tropes of the horror and action genres. And hoo boy, if you want me to expand on that line of thought let me know, because I could get sooo in-depth with that, particularly as it relates to Destiel and Dean's early string of fleeting women love interests.

TL;DR: Yeah we got...whatever that was because the fraught underbelly of American Masculinity is gay as hell and straight men will write a wholeass show instead of going to fucking therapy to deal with that. Among other things.
