"Jegulus is misogynistic because Lily is sidelined in the story as a result of the ship."

I dont think that's misogyny because if it's a JEGULUS story, and she isn't the main character, why would her story be prioritised. Once again, if you want to see more Lily content or any female character, why dont you start by making some yourself. Personally, if I want a specific fanfic but I can't find one like it, I WRITE IT MYSELF. Complaining without doing anything to make a change is just annoying and unhelpful.

12 year old Regulus who writes 'Regulus Potter' in hearts all over a page in his notebook and then throws it into a fire when Barty comes back to the room unexpectedly early.

12 year old Barty who has to be physically stopped from putting his hand into the fire because he knows that it has something embarrassing in it and wants to tease Regulus.

"You can't like Regulus but hate Snape, because they were both death eaters."

Incorrect, because I don't dislike Snape for joining the Death Eaters or even for the way he treated Lily when he was a child. I dislike him because of the way he treated children as an adult and a teacher. His blatant bullying of Neville and Hermione is why I donr like him. If I read a fic where he becomes less of a shitty person, I do find myself liking his character, but in terms of Canon, disliking Snape isn't outrageous.

Assigning taylor swift albums to marauders characters. This is purely my opinion so don't come at me pls.

Regulus - Folklore and Reputation

James - Folklore and Lover

(I could write essays defending these choices for Jegulus,don't test me)

Remus - Folklore and Evermore (hes one angsty boy)

Sirius - Reputation and Speak now (you cannot tell me he wouldnt interrupt a wedding dramatically for Remus)

Peter - 1989 and debut

Lily - Red and Evermore

Mary - Debut and Midnights

Marlene - Midnights and Reputation

Dorcas - Midnights and 1989

Pandora - Debut and Fearless (she would be an og swiftie fr)

Evan - Red and 1989 (can i explain this? no, but im sticking with it anyway)

Barty - reputation, midnights and a splash of Folklore (its giving chaos)

"Regulus' parents didn't force him to become a death eaters. They didn't join Voldemort."

Walburga and Orion were always blood supremacists and agreed with Voldemort. They raised their children with these beliefs. We dont know if Regulus joined willingly or they pressured him into it, but he was 16 when he joined. He was a child and it was their responsibility and their fault either way.

So guess who finally finished their 85k canon-adjacent Jegulus fanfic?

It's a trick question, the answer is me obviously.

Anyway I uploaded the final chapter today and after more than a year of writing, it's done.

Thank you to everyone's support with this, I'm so grateful.

Please remember your favorite writers are attention whores with a praise kink, they need validation to survive. Feed them comments and reblogs to save a life.

"Saying Regulus is a more interesting character than Lily is misogyny"

First of all, I agree that there is a disproportion of content for male and female characters and that's a problem. However, preferring Regulus' character over Lily's and finding it more interesting isn't misogyny, but Personal opinion. Sure, some people might have this opinion because of misogyny but the majority don't.

" Bring back the OG marauders."

Sure, go ahead. If you want to make them all cis-het white British characters again, feel free to do so. Nobody is forcing you to read fics with more diversity. The fun thing about fanon and headcannons is that you can think whatever you want and nobody can stop you. However if the diversity bothers you enough that you have to send us death threats, that says more about you than it does about us.

Im.. Soft 🥺🥺🥺
