James is not a deadbeat dad: I hate when people say that
"Dumbledore had to take his invisibility cloak because he was going out so much," No. Dumbledore borrowed James' cloak so he could research it, he asked to borrow it, and James let him.
"He leaves to go on motorbike rides with Sirius, leaving Lily and harry alone" Also, no. That was a prequel for a reason. It took place three years before Harry's birth and when James was still in Hogwarts, maybe not even dating Lily yet. And even if he was dating Lily, he can still go out because he wasn't in hiding yet.
"He forgot his wand on the couch" Key word. Forgot. He wasn't in a life or death situation, it was just pure death. He voluntarily risked his life to give Lily time to go up those stairs, knowing he'd die. He told Lily to take Harry without him. If you're going to say James is an idiot for forgetting his wand, don't forget, Lily had no wand upon her either. James was scared and clearly had no time to get his wand because one distraction could've made Voldemort pass him.

sirius black was meant to inherit the fortunes of both his grandparents, one through alphard and one through orion.
this is what could turn him into potentially the most powerful wizard in the lense of society. we know the malfoys were the richest when we were introduced to them, but that was in a world where the black heir was in prison.
this is what sells to me the idea that neither walburga or orion wanted to play the family game and leave the task up to cygnuss, since alphard didn’t played along either.
walburga and orion marriage was a powerful move. together they ensured the next heir to be powerful whilst securing the family line. but also, there’s a chance they had regulus not as the spare, or at least not in the sense for him to become the heir in case something happens with sirius, but more as to spare him of any duties.
they could’ve put all the expectations and pressure onto sirius and simultaneously free up his youngest to be who ever he wanted to be, an option they didn’t have.
enemies to lovers | blackinnon edition
quidditch captain james potter replaces marlene mckinnon on the team with his best friend, sirius black, after she got injured.
marlene: what the fuck did you just do?
james: we needed a new player, marls
sirius laughs
marlene: and who the fuck you think you are?
sirius: seems fairly obvious to me, mckinnon. the next best beater gryffindor has ever seen.
marlene: you have never even played! didn’t even bother to show up for the tryouts!
sirius: no need to when you’ve got the talent
marlene: fuck you! and fuck you too potter! *muttering, leaving the pitch* fucking nepotism
remus lupin is the type of teacher to say "i'll wait." and then just stare at the class till everyone shuts up.
A quiet moment alone.
They are entirely too hot and too rich for me.
Bellatrix is the kind of person who, if she loves you, protects you from everything, but if she hates you, she tries every way to destroy you.
ballet academy au | blackinnon edition
sirius thought if he got away from any trouble inducing situations like, say, a party on the rooftop of the academy, then he couldn’t get in trouble, much less get suspended for it.
except he realized too late that he was the only kid on the academy that had a copy of the master key that gave access to the rooftop and, unfortunately, someone had stole it from his locker. he checked.
that was what he was doing when he caught sight of marlene dancing on her own late on a friday night.
he had been dancing long enough with her for him to realize there was more to her talent than just very calibrated movements and long beautiful lines.
there was some kind of pent-up emotion running wild somewhere under the fiber of her muscles. it was only watching from afar that he managed to put a finger on it.
and when she had dance adding a pirouette just as he had told her, he saw it coming to life in front of him.
that thing beneath her skin.
—that was a good suggestion, ever thought about teaching?
he thought he was alone, but when he lifted his head, caradoc was looking at him.
—i barely make it as student as it is.
—not for lack of talent.
it was the closest thing to a compliment he ever heard from the man.
—you should be careful though, sort out your feelings.
sirius was not quite sure what caradoc meant, was he merely talking dancing?
—sort out my feelings mister i-don’t-care-what-either-of-you-do? perhaps you should sort out yours, maybe take this to dinner? see where it might take us?
he could’ve swear he almost saw caradoc smile, faintly.
—just be careful, black.
confusion didn’t sit right with sirius, so when caradoc left him, he did the only thing that could help: he danced alone in the studio on a friday night.

i think walburga wouldn’t care for orion being unfaithful as long as 1) he was discreet about it and 2) he didn’t get involve with anyone near her circle. after all, their marriage isn’t rooted in love.
problem is, orion and cygnuss have been feuding ever since they were kids (orion is closer to him in age than walburga) and finally he decided to start an affair with druella, who happens to be not only is his cousin’s wife but also the one woman walburga despises the most (she never wanted for her to marry his brother).
meanwhile alphard knows all this is happening and stays as far away as possible from all the drama, cause even if he tells his sister, she would find a way to blame him somehow, shot the messenger and all that.
