Marauders ft Regulus in a nutshell pt 3:

James: Sirius if you don't shutup I'm gonna tape you're mouth shut.

Sirius: James you freak 😜

Remus: Sirius put that tongue back in your mouth.

Regulus: Are they a threesome?

Peter: no idea

[fallintomidnight]

Pandora : "You're welcome!"

Evan, sighs : " What did you do?"

Pandora, offended : " Nothing bad, I just gathered some information from barty and I think he likes you!!!!"

Evan : " Oh I don't know pan, can you tell me what he said so I can see if he really did mean that he likes me as you say?"

Pandora : " fine. I asked him if blonde and weird is his type and he said he doesn't have anything against them!!!!!"

Evan : " I cannot believe YOU described ME as wierd, but OMG THERE'S A CHANCE THAT BARTY LIKES ME!!!"

Evan, hugs Pandora: " thankyou thankyou thankyou "

.......

Barty : "I think we have a problem..."

Dorcas : "What did you do?"

Barty : " I think Pandora has a crush on me..."

Dorcas, who knew about what Pandora actually did :

Barty, genuinely distressed : " oh how can I tell her that I love her twin brother.... it's going to break her heart...."

[thund3randrain]

dorcas: this is my girlfriend marlene and this is marlene's girlfriend mary and this is mary's girlfriend pandora and this is pandora's girlfriend lily and this is lily's boyfriend james and this is james's boyfriend regulus and this is regulus's boyfriend barty and this is barty's boyfriend evan and this is evan's boyfriend peter and this is peter's boyfriend remus and this is remus's boyfriend sirius

[where-is-vivian]

Barty, like a cat bringing dead mice: I brought you a surprise!

Evan, knowing his bf killed someone again: *sigh* you did it again

also Evan: ... Fine! Let's bury this one in the garden with all the others...

(basically the plot of the best of you, honey, belongs to me)

[mrsfrecklesmarauders]

"Sirius was my childhood crush. I was silly around him. I was ten years old and I remember I locked myself in my room, put on some Brenda Lee records and drew hearts with our initials in them, or his name inside a heart....

I dreamed about marrying him when we got older. I wanted for him to be my first kiss. My first boyfriend. My first everything. I thought he was the most beautiful boy in the world. He was the owner of every love song I listened to and the protagonist of every scene I imagined in my head. He made my head spin and my heart beat fast. I knew love because of him... "

"And now?" Lily asked, bringing Remus to the present.

Remus blushed after what he had just confessed. He felt like an idiot now. But back then, when he was ten years old, before his transition and all the fucked up shit in his life, Remus used to be a hopeless romantic. And Sirius had fascinated him.

"He still owns my heart" Remus confessed. It was the truth. Hard and clear.

Lily sighed as if she was hearing the most beautiful love story. It was nothing beautiful. It was torture.

"But in a different way" Remus added "Sometimes I really want to strangle him" he chuckled.

Lily stared at him with those emerald eyes. Her eyes flickered towards the spot where Sirius was laughing on the couch with Alecto Carrow. She was sitting too close to him. Showing him something on her phone. Remus didn't want to look.

"But he doesn't feel the same, obviously" Remus sighed as well "I am his best friend and a boy. And we know he is into girls"

"Many girls for my liking" Lily rolled her eyes, then gave Remus a pitiful smile "What are you going to do?"

Remus shrugged "Probably forget about him" he said "Don't worry about it, Lils. I'll be fine... "

Lily hugged him and kissed his head gently. "You deserve better, Remus"

What they didn't know was that Sirius was openly staring at Remus. Confused by his feelings and how much he had been thinking about him lately. Definitely not like a friend would.

"What about him?... Sirius!" Alecto elbowed him.

Sirius moved his eyes to Alecto's phone where there was a picture of a shirtless bloke. A very attractive one. Sirius’s eyes stared and stared at the torso of that man.

"I know he looks bold, but I do really have a type... I mean I used to fancy you" Alecto giggled.

But Sirius kept staring at the picture. What if he liked this? If he liked Remus would it mean he would like every sexy bloke? Would that make him gay?

Sirius swallowed.

"Sirius!" Alecto exclaimed "What do you think?"

Sirius was kind of panicking.

"I know what you are thinking" Alecto snorted "I should not find such handsome bloke or otherwise you'll get jealous..." she smiled.

Sirius faked a smile.

"Please... No one like me" he winked making the girl laugh.

But in the corner of his eye, he spotted Remus again.

[unnecessaryheadache]

James having an insane lazy eye, took off his glasses and put it somewhere and now he can't find em. He bumps into Snape, who doesn't notice the lazy eye until Snape glares back, ready to fire a hex at James. But then, he pauses. He looks at James' left eye - perfectly normal, mind you. But the right eye...

Snape keeps switching between one eye before choosing the safest option of the skin between James' brows. "You aren't even looking at me at this point. Am I too handsome for you, Snivellus?"

"No, I- " Snape pressed his lips together thinly, trying to hold back a snort. "...yoo-hoo," he calls, waving in the direction of the lazy-eye, "over here."

Silence.

Snape starts running ahead a few seconds before James, trying not to cackle so loudly because the image is now burned into his mind while James chases him, throwing hexes and curses his way.

marauders kinnie bingo <3

thought this was interesting and i was pleasantly surprised, tbh!! i didnt include the characters who i didnt tick off as many boxes for, like peter and barty 🤷‍♀️

[tsukiko31]

Me every time I engage with the Marauders fandom in any shape way or form. Like, no matter anyone's preference, we ALL agree that angst is the fuel and basis for this fandom.

I woke up and chose pain

Through relationships, fights, friendships and laughter, we will navigate through their lives!   The school hierarchy in a nutshell as it is a boarding school AU: ‘Pure bloods’= rich kids that can afford to attend via payment, ‘halfbloods’= ones that can also attend via payment but are lower than pure bloods, and ‘muggleborns’= kids who attend on scholarship!

and of course me, @/miss-lily-evans-potter !!

[tsukiko31]

Very very well said @eurypotpourrie. But people will always judge things that do not align with their view of the world, however large or limited it may be. We hope some people take this as a learning opportunity maybe.

It all comes down to fandom etiquette. Nobody is forcing you to consume fan made content. It is free, optional and not for criticising based on personal preferences.

"Villain and Violent, Infant and Innocent" is Regulus Black. He was juat a kid, a very impressionable kid who just wanted his parents to be proud of him, and at the end of the day, that's what we all want right?

[hprambles-blog]

I just hate how toxic Wolfstar shippers are hating on Tonks/remadora and they made Tonks a baby machine + lesbian to act as if they care about her when it’s very misogynistic of them. They hate on her just because remus fell for her and she fell for him. The fandom can’t let us have 1 remadora post and every time I go through the remadora tags, I keep on seeing stuff like Wolfstar “remus never loved Tonks” “she forced him into a relationship” “he was too old for her” “remus only married her because she could morph into Sirius”

I had enough of toxic marauders/wolfstar fans literally not letting us have fun with our ship by commenting stuff like “remus and sirius are together” “remus and Tonks are 2 queer characters who married each other just for fun” “wolfstar is canon” etc etc to the point I had to filter tags!

The marauders fandom had gone too far that if you state your opinion which contradicts theirs, they will send you death threats and give you the most illogical arguments

I guess I have vented all I wanted even though I have more but this is my venting in a nutshell

🥨

[hp-confessions]

Seeing Snape and marauders fans argue all the time is like the live reenactment of the characters in a nutshell.

Both will continue arguing over their takes on that era and how their sides are the better choice. However, no one, or at least most of each community refuses to listen to each other. Instead they keep arguing as if it’s going to solve things.

Usually it’s always just reduced to petty insults.

“Snape deserved to get bullied” On a snape slander post.

“stan bambi” on any and EVERYpositive tt centered around snape.

“She should’ve gotten with snape anyways” on a jily post.

The same thing happens in the book. Insert the name calling.

Then there’s the apologists/victim blamers.

“Snape didn’t do anything wrong. he was right to bully children.”

Just because snapes life sucked doesn’t mean he’s just allowed to take it out on others?

“They were just fifteen.”

Unclothing someone, the shrieking shack incident , and probably having multiple 4v1 isn’t justifiable by any means.

“they matured”

Seeing as sirius still calls snape snivilous at his grown age, snape taking any moment he can to slander any of them, or just remus brushing things under the rug id say that yeah no the fuck they didn’t.

“snape saying mudblood was an accident”

He still said it.

“Shrieking shack was an accident”

Remus got exposed and Snape could’vedied.

“We dont know if they completely took off his underwear so it’s not that-“

exactly. we don’t. yet a lot of evidence points towards it but wtv. either way he still took his pants off. That’s assault.

“His father and the rest nearly killed me and tormented me for seven straight years.”

yes, and that’s bad ofc but that doesn’t excuse snape continuing the cycle and doing the same to his students.

”He was a slytherin! He wasn’t a good person!”

pretty sure a first year wasn’t showing any signs of being death eater material but alright..

then there’s the demonizers….😟

“Snapes a pedo because if harry was a girl he’d be creepy towards harry”

WHAT THE FUCK🤢🤮 NO HES NOT OH MY GOD..😨😭 Genuinley what goes through your mind when you think that.. Snaoe would probably still act hateful or if anything he’d absolutelyavoid fem!harry because in this hypothetical situation she was similar to lily. Not because he’s a pedophile but because of TRAUMA????? HELLO???? Seeing ur bully is one thing but seeing ur dead ex bff is another.. just. because. you. think. he. liked. her. mother. does. not. mean. he’s. going. to. become. a. kid. liker. for. her. daughter. just because harry’s a gender bend doesn’t mean snapes going to transform into a creep. how did you even get that from SNAPE of all people. SNAPE. If you haven’t gotten the memo bro DESPIES no he LOATHES the existence of children. he’d be the last person to be a pdo. Yes he does care for them obviously, but in a way of where if a pedo was idk being creepy with a child bro would 🪄💥🧨🔪🧠 off that pedo…

“Sirius tried to murder snape”

….no…he didn’t. if i recalled sirius was not guilty gor murder charges regarding a rat.. like i said earlier, the shrieking shack incident wasnt okay in the slightest but that doesn’t mean it was purposeful attempted murder. they were stupid (no this also doesn’t justify their actions) and thought it’d scare him and obviously didn’t think their little prank through. they weren’t trying to murder him they were just being assholes. i don’t see sirius using remus to kill, ever. a highly dangerous prank apparently? yeah? murder? no,

“____/____ didn’t contribute at all”

Snape, sirius, and remus literally threw away his life to save harry. not pettigrew tho he’s a little bitch rat i hate pettigrew!!!!!!!👺👺

Anyways, to summarize, everyone’s arguing yet never actually trying to achieve anything but submission when that’s quite literally impossible to accomplish. And that’s because no one’s willing to find a common ground and no one wants to actually create logical arguments. Petty insults and cursed theoretical nonsense isn’t going to solve the argument.

Many Snape fans ignore or straight up defend him bullying students and refuse to acknowledge he was in the wrong.

Many marauders fans ignore or straight up defend the bullying and refuse to acknowledge they were in the wrong.

Snape will refuse to back down from Sirius and Lupin and will continue behaving the way he does.

Sirius and Remus will refuse to back down from snape and continue to do the same things they did as schoolboys.

Real or fantasy, this is something that will never be resolved. maybe because no one cares enough to fix it? maybe because they care too much?

either way i guess it’d be nice to say i like snape and not immediately stereotyped as a snape apologist or get made fun of by it from friends. Im not stupid and if anything i like that he’s morally grey. i don’t support his actions, but i like to see characters with faults and put together why they ended up that way. his home life and other (non bullying) aspects of him are relatable and that’s another reason i like him.

i guess it’d be nice to talk to marauders fans and let them yap abt fanfics and for them not to think that i’m going to instantly call them horrible people for liking the marauders. I may not be in the m fandom but that doesn’t mean i won’t be respectful and gen listen to them. i’m sure that marauders fans like relate to the non bullying aspects aswell.

anyways yeah, i kinda just wished the fandom was a little more chill and not a fucking dumpster fire💀💀

the marauders and dramione stans in a nutshell:

[tsukiko31]

Oh hmm, no I understood your original point you were making. Unfortunately that is just not how fan fiction works in general. You are absolutely correct in your thinking and interpretation of the situation. After all Death eaters are based on Nazis. Hell, Grindelwald was in the middle of things during the second muggle war. It is a disgusting ideology and dangerous to spread and worship and simplify especially in the current political climate of the world.

That being said, fan fiction has always been about taking canon and warping it to a different perspective. Because many people disagree with with those idealogies in the first place, they choose to distance the characters. And yes, tbh? Whatever is not canon, what is fanon? Is actually OCs with the same name (there uses to be an obligatory disclaimer for any piece of art so that people would not get sued). Because the author chooses to give life to that interpretation. They give a part of their own views and morals to those characters. I think that is part of the creation process, and why a lot of people are sensitive about the fanon versions of characters being villinized. They are based on real people and real life experiences.

When people defend Regulus in CR, they defend that iteration of him. Because the author did such a good job giving him life under different circumstaces, with different morals and reactions.

But tbh? I am more wondering about what you think about the part of fandom that worships the Death Eaters. Like for real. No excuses. They just write them as is and they enjoy that. 🤷🏻‍♀️ cause in all cases with Regulus for examples, they write him very much distancing from those principles. 🧐

Besides the point, as I stated, I totally understand your view, but man, I am here to escape the real world so I kind of tend to enjoy the light heartedness of the fandom...and probably read way too much smut in my free time.

because the marauders fandom as a whole generally uses this phrase horrifically wrong, i’m going to explain what “morally grey” actually does and does not mean!

morally grey is NOT:

1. character who’s done a lengthy series of horrific things and then does one sort of good thing.

2. character who had a bad childhood and then as an adult, commits violent hate crimes.

3. character who is supports racism/bigotry/misogyny but it’s okay because they get bullied or they’re poor.

4. character who’s done a lengthy series of really good things and then does one sort of bad thing.

5. character who is a horrible person who’s done numerous horrific wrongs, but they’re a little white boy, or a tiny little twink man, or an emo dark haired baby boy, or a blond freckled cinnamon roll, so it’s magically fine.

morally grey IS:

1. character who fights for good/equality/a noble cause but goes about it in a violent or harmful fashion. yes, violence is necessary in times of war. but it is still morally grey to engage in it.

2. character who is forced into an oppressive role and is choosing the safety of themselves over the safety of an oppressed population.

3. character who had a bad childhood and struggles to break the cycle in which they were created, but makes an effort to do so anyway.

the bottom line is that moral greyness represents an actual struggle between good and evil influences that manifests into tangible action.

regulus black is NOT morally grey. the one good thing he ever did was not for a good reason. therefore he was not struggling between good and evil. his entire life was dedicated to himself, his power, which comes from blood supremacy.

barty crouch jr. is NOT morally grey. he had a bad childhood theoretically, but he never canonically fought against those influences, and it’s implied that his childhood was bad as a direct result of his sadistic tendencies. therefore, there’s no struggle between good and evil.

bellatrix lestrange is NOT morally grey. being a woman does not automatically counter or somehow excuse her dedication to blood supremacy, which never wavers or changes. no struggle between good and evil.

severus snape is NOT morally grey. his actions appear to be good, but the reasoning behind them are never that. he protects harry because he sees lily in him. he doesn’t express remorse for his blood supremacist views even when he becomes a double agent. he openly bullies and torments children for things they can’t control due to the bitterness in his heart. he was bullied in childhood but it was due to his blood supremacist beliefs. it all comes back to him clinging onto the slightest semblance of power he has as someone with wizard blood in him. though his actions suggest it, i personally see no true struggle between good and evil, as his objective is always the same.

ron weasley is NOT morally grey. his occasional moments of rudeness are never guided by evil intentions. he is simply human, and his bad actions do not remotely balance his good actions. his good actions are so significant and common that his bad actions are tiny blips of misjudgment that can be attributed to emotional outbursts. emotional outbursts do not imply moral greyness.

albus dumbledore IS morally grey. his intentions are good, but the way he goes about doing what he does is horrific. he is willing to murder children in order for more children numerically to stay alive. debating which lives are more precious through simple logic is moral greyness because it is a struggle between the good of saving lives and the bad of sacrificing other lives. all for a good cause, but is it really so good if it causes death?

i’m too tired to think of other characters but moral greyness is present in harry potter/marauders. just not in the characters that the fandom is implying. morally grey is not an excuse for one’s actions or a way to criminalize one’s actions. it’s simply a way to describe somebody. akin to a personality trait.

and this is my take on it! i know i’m gonna get death threats but i don’t really care! i know i’m right!
