The Intimacy Of Sleeping Together, But Not In A Sexual Way. The Intimacy Of Feeling The Warmth Of Their

The Sirius would never wear a skirt because he is masc argument is so ridiculous (not that any argument in that absurd discourse makes any fucking sense.) But, like, apart from the blatant queerphobia some people are showing (weird), you know masc presenting people can wear skirts as well, right? Lots of them do? They are clothes and they aren't tied to gender presentations. Same as make-up.

The argument is substantially meaningless and ridiculous and honestly it just causes me to laugh and brutally side eye.

i feel like sirius and remus being physically affectionate with each other would be so awkward. like they both enjoy it because it’s from the love of their life but it’s just so funny. sirius never really learned how to be physically affectionate so he just doesn’t really know what he’s doing and remus is like afraid of hurting him and he’s just so tall and gangly and it’s just so adorable because they’re both lowkey touch starved.

I need you to understand that when I say "comments are appreciated!" I mean that I will reply to every one of them. I mean that an email with an ao3 notification has a higher priority than a message from my mother. I mean that I will have entire discussions in the comment section if you're up for it. Message me on tumblr and I will have the same discussions on an even more unhinged level. I will dissect entire personalities and ships and fictional political structures and worldbuilding with you. I will become your new best friend. You already ARE my new best friend. At the last battle, I would raise Anduril and say "For my ao3 readers" while a single tears rolls down my cheek, and dive into the fray. I would upload from beyond the grave if someone asked about the next chapter

something about the only two widely hc-ed black women in marauders era (mary and dorcas) being the sexiest hottest eye-candied women in hogwarts (casanovas of gryffindor and slytherin respectively) & desi james potter being accused of "taking regulus' innocence" who is just generally infantilized and shown to be pure & remus being a minority who is portrayed to be aggressive and harmful and downright violent living up to that and being overbearingly dominant and borderline abusive to his white smaller, emotionally vulnerable partner who won't leave them & evan being the only marauders era man hc-ed as black (though occasionally) being constantly shown as violent and creepy and um . i cant talk about anyone else because there's no one else to talk about ,, but like . something about them

One thing about Remus Lupin is that he will PINE.

YOUR NAZI ASS SUPPORTING BULLSHIT IS NOT WELCOME IN QUEER TAGS. STOP POSTING YOUR NAZI FAVE IN QUEER TAGS. STOP SUPPORTING FUCKING NAZIS, YOU FUCKING ASS PERSONALITY-LESS DICKWAD.

i didn’t use a single generic queer tag. every single queer tag i used had a character name in it. so if you hate these characters and/or this author THIS much, why the fuck are you in the fandom tags…

this person won’t see this anyways because they sent this (as well as a very similar reply to my post) and then immediately blocked me, but i wanted to answer this publicly if only to expose this person’s bullshit/warn other HP fans about them…a quick search of their name reveals that they’ve done this to at least one other marauders fan.

and a quick reminder, because i’ve seen other people saying it a lot lately but it clearly bears repeating: if you don’t like a certain type of content mute the fucking tags/words!

What they don't tell you about writing is that as you write, you discover scenes and entire plots that you hadn't accounted for that need to be written. So you can spend two hours writing and editing only to realise you're further away from the finish line than you thought you were when you started

You've heard of rbf, I thinking Remus has rsf: resting sad face
