Ok, I know fandom takes a lot of made up things and runs with it and fuck JKR, but she *did* actually say it. It is canon. Here:
"Information on the original Order members was also revealed during tonight’s event. Jo related the fact that Remus Lupin, prior to the third book, was unemployable because he was a werewolf and upon his graduation from Hogwarts along with James and Lily, was supported by James using their own money."

*EDIT:
As someone pointed out, the quote is an incorrect summarization of the interview transcript. However, I'll still defend the fandom stance in that this isn't another baseless thing that came out of nowhere. There is a source. It is wrong, it turns out, but it exists.
Listen, I'm more of a canon follower than the average modern fan, so there are a lot of things I don't personally like that nowadays are taken as a given, but at the end of the day, it is a fandom built on crumbs.
Anyways, thanks for the correction, I see where they are coming from now. And happy for the Prongsfoot and Jilypad shippers. XD
Can we please add “James supported Lupin financially after Hogwarts” into the list of things the Marauders fandom thinks is canon even though it is actually completely fanon? Because James didn’t. There’s no mention of it in the books and Rowling has never actually said any such thing in her interviews.

For your consideration:
Barty x Rabastan Lestrange
Why, you might ask? Hear me out. Because he was there for the torture of Frank and Alice. Who else was there? Bellatrix, her husband Rodolphus and Rabastan. All Lestranges. And then, Barty is also there randomly? No, I don't believe so. In my opinion, the four of them torturing the Longbottoms was 100% their idea of a double date, a bonding activity. And here's how I think it came to be:
In my mind, it became a thing after Evan's death. Barty was seething with anger and grief, he became even more violent and relentless than he already was. And who are the Death Eaters we know for being peak psychopaths? The Lestranges, so of course Barty, who was already a wild one, fit right in with them. In fact, being older than him, they received him with open arms and Rabastan in particular stepped in offering a twisted sort of comfort, taking him under his wing.
I don't know if there would be actual love or anything like that there; I think it probably was just Rabastan seeing and loving the pure rage and how unhinged Barty had always been and how it had been heightened now - maybe he even encouraged that rage and kept the wound of the grief open, in a subtle, manipulative way because of how sadistic Barty became over it. Can you see it? Can you see Barty, teeth gritted with anger, brutalizing his victims while Rabastan is watching over his shoulder, softly whispering "Make them pay. These blood traitors took Evan from you. Why do they get to go on and pollute our society with their filthy blood when Evan is dead?", "That's it, Barty... They didn't hesitate when they killed Evan, did they?", "Come on, Barty. Evan deserves more than that. They deserve to feel your pain tenfold." ...
And on Barty's side it was just having an enabler for his violent coping mechanisms and someone who masked the emptiness Evan left. He didn't even have Regulus anymore, he was already long dead over this and the word was that he died a traitor to their cause. So he threw himself deeper into the war and the violence and at night allowed Rabastan to lay on Evan's side of the bed. It was better than having it empty.
Anyway, I've thought about this a lot.

Welcome to my blog!
*ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚
Hi! I'm Violet, @violet-sililoquy is my main blog but I mostly do reblogs over there. My pronouns are she/her, and I'm an adult so there might be mature content ahead, though that's not my main focus. Nevertheless, if you are a minor, please refrain from interacting, and if you are of age, please mind any tags, I'll try to tag everything appropriately.
English isn't my first language, but I am a literature and culture studies major.
I'm just here to have some fun, I'm way past the age to get involved in drama. If I don't like something, I don't read it and if it bothers me, I block and silence tags - you are welcome to do the same here, I don't want to impose on anyone. YKINMKATIOK.

Fandoms&ships
*ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚
I've been around, okay? I come and go into fandoms in phases with a few ones that stick around for a bit longer, so this is just the tip of the iceberg. I'm also a multishipper, though I do have preferences of course.
☆HP (especially Marauders, but a fair bit of Golden Trio Era) - My main fandom and the one I've been in the longest. FUCK JKR. I'm here from the so called "pre-tiktok" era and while I like to stick to canon more than some people, I happily adopt any "new" ideas that I think are interesting, and a lot of them are. Again, I'm just here to have fun. :)
-Wolfstar
-Jily
-Dorlene
-Romionarry (coming in with a rare one)
-Rosekiller
-Jegulus
-Drarry
I'm open to hearing most ships out in some contexts, but these are just my personal preferences that I enjoy overall.
☆Stranger Things
-Steddie
☆IWTV (Vampire Chronicles in general)
☆NBC Hannibal
☆Black Butler (manga, no s*baciel)
☆South Park
☆Some other animes (Seraph of the End, Shiki, Assassination Classroom)
☆...

More about me
*ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚
As I said, I'm a literature major, I love classic literature, especially the gothic genre. Speaking of, I'm also goth, and I've been actively in the goth community for over 8 years now. Outside goth music, I love a lot of rock subgenres and metal too. I also get involved in social causes and activism irl.
*ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚
I'm open to questions and requests, please send them over to my main. It's kind of hard for me to gather the courage to post my work and ideas, but I'm trying, please be nice :)
