Ted: Dating A Black Is Great.

I love having friends all over the world. I wouldn't change them for anything.

But hell what I would give up now to just be able to walk to their door and knock for a quick chat.

To have a late night walk because neither of us can sleep.

To go for a coffee and be on our phone the whole day because we have all the time in the world.

To stumble upon them on my way to work because they live in the same area.

To just wave at them across the street and continue walking because I know we will see each other soon.

To be able to hug them instead of video calls, texts and voice notes.

Just to have them close.

what a run - well played ladies!

from the bottom of my heart: just because something makes you uncomfortable doesn't mean it shouldn't be allowed to exist

also a poem from the new, unreleased collection. very possibly my own all-time favourite.

I'm always coming across people saying one of two things about wolfstar 1) It makes no sense and 2) it would be toxic as hell if it ever happened...

All of which makes me wonder what on earth set of books they were reading because from Remus's voice shaking with some suppressed emotion when he sees Sirius for the first time in twelve years, to his voice sounding like every word was causing him pain after Sirius's death we see them be nothing but gentle, respectful and affectionate with each other.

Anyway - I'm currently re-reading Bite and Prejudice which is my wolfstar Jane Austen AU and I just came across this paragraph which, although it is written in flouncy regency language (and was paraphrased from another which was originally about Lizzie and Darcy), sums up exactly why Remus and Sirius work so perfectly together in canon:

He thought too how their dispositions and tempers - though markedly different from the other - would suit each other perfectly and bring out only  the best. How Remus’s tendency to self deprecation, his dry wit and steady temper would deflate the worst of Black’s pride, stick a pin in his self importance and keep his readily admitted propensity to take offence and never give up a grudge in check. Likewise, Black’s ardent nature, his loyalty and tenderness, his capacity for love and his great passion for life would pull Remus out of his own melancholy, make a mockery of his self pity, and make him laugh when he was inclined to be maudlin. Together, Remus thought, they made one very good sort of man. Apart they must always be prey to their own weakness and follies. 

Which just goes to show, whatever universe you put them in, wolfstar will always make sense.

me, seeing a fic writer I like in the comments of an random fic

a thing I've learned about interacting with fanfiction.

fanfiction is free. I cannot pay the author even if I want to, but I can leave a comment telling them how much I appreciate their work 🫶

idk why comment on fics like so many times i see fics full of comment and not a one reply from the author like at this point is better just to gush about in discord after all nobody is answering the comments

no author is needs to respond to comments when theyre providing you free work. if you want that work to continue, leave comments. if you arent going to leave comments don't be surprised when your favorite creators stop posting.
