Marauders - Blog Posts

James potter was always the sun, but the truth is he never was. His dream? To fly towards it, and never look back. So when he had the chance, he ignored the warnings, he ignored everyone’s advice, and soared. And the sun the was beautiful, but as he flew closer, its beauty blinded him. He didn’t notice his back felt lighter, or his body was falling away. Only until I was too late did he realise that the sun was right Infront of him. All he had to do, was make them smile.

Marlene: OH MY GOD MY MUSIC WIDGET HAS FINALLY CHANGED!

Lil: huh?

Marlene: for months the widget has been saying this one album that I haven’t listen to in well… months, and it’s finally changes

Lily: oh, HORRAY!

Marlene: it changed back.

Marlene: I HAVENT LISTEN TO THIS ALBUM IN MONTHS, WHAT THE FUCK

James: (in the corner listening in and laughing his ass off)

Marauders era characters as things my friends have said part 41?? I think

James: OH MY GOD WHO WANTS TO MEE PENNYWISE WITH ME?

Sirius: ME!

James: TAY

Sirius: Lor Swift

Sirius: boomshacalaka

James: I’m actually in love with you

Headcannons for the family lives of each marauders (please be reminded these are my headcannons and any hate will cause an argument from me 🫶)

James: happy loving parents but not all the time, families always have flaws the potters are just better at hiding them. He would argue with his dad a lot over stupid things but James never hated his dad

Sirius + regulus: of course the abusive Walburga and Orion BUT I like to think that when they were younger Walburga was kinder to them but was then placed under the imperious curse by Orion to keep her in line, and to discipline there children better

Peter: BIG family, kind of an opposite Weasley family, five sister and Peter is the only boy. I like to headcannon on of his sisters was deaf and non magic so she was less loved by her family but her and Peter were reallly close. Peter is the middle child, three older, two younger. His father is not in the picture, left when Peter was 7.

Remus: farm family, literally grew up on a farm and had like two horses, cows and chickens. His dad worked all the time and his mum was stayed home and took care of the animals. Remus was closer to his mum because he barely saw his dad but in the 6th year she got six and the year after they graduated she passed.

Marlene: child of divorce, (She jokes about it a lot) parents divorced on good terms but don’t keep them in the same room for long because they will argue. Has two older brothers that raised her when he parents were fighting

Mary: raised by her dad, only child, her mother passed away and severe complications during the pregnancy and birth. Her dad always would treat her like a princess but they did not grow up rich, her father balanced two jobs and taking care of Mary. He got a lot of help from grandma MacDonald

Lily: her and petunia were close, REALLY close and were all aware of them splitting apart after Lily was sent to Hogwarts. But I like to think they didn’t just, minimise contact. Petunia despised her so much that as soon as she could cut Lily out completely, that’s why she hated Harry so much. But deep down she still loved her sister,

Barty: absolutely despised his dad. (In a muggle au I enjoy him having severe religious trauma and that’s why he despised his dad so much, probs will write some short about this), his mum was completely corrupted by his dad and always listened and believed everything he said. Barty still loved his mum, he knew that she wasn’t really like that, it’s his dad’s fault.

Evan + Pandora: parents were very together but Pandora was raised as a princess, learning how to be a good housewife and a perfect mother, while Evan learned the “manlier stuff” (which I cannot think of right now so use your imagination). The Two grew up very differently from eachother, so they never had a strong relationship, but they learned bro be siblings over time

Dorcas: another child of divorce, probably why Marlene and her clicked so well. The only difference is that Dorcas parents divorced when she was really young while Marlene was older. Dorcas always favoured her dad over her mum but they both were severly flawed.

Marauder era characters as things my friends have said part 40

Barty: hey are you coming to hogsmeade tomorrow?

Regulus: I’ll make sure one sec

(Half an hour later)

Barty: it has been longer than a second

Regulus: this weekend right?

Barty: yeah

Regulus: ok one sec

(2 hours later)

Barty: bitch why do you say one sec and never reply

Marauders era character as things my friends have said part 39

Mary: I was at my aunts house and she just randomly died, like girly could’ve told me she didn’t want me there

Lily: WHAT?

Mary: Pookie dropped at stopped

“Marlene,” Dorcas pleaded “my friends there-“

“Disgusting pieces of shit!” Marlene said, flinging around to see Dorcas’s tear stained face.

Marlene had just come from Dorcas’s dorm, a weird interaction had happened between her and Pandora and she was pissed.

“Don’t you realise how weird that is!” Marlene spat,

“I thought you knew Pandora wasn’t normal!” Dorcas chuckled a bit, trying to keep herself from crying more

“I’m sorry, I thought she just had her head in the clouds a bit!” Marlene mocked “she just told me I how I was gonna die”

Dorcas knew that she wasn’t going to be convincing Marlene to not think about it. Marlene would think about it, a lot. All the time.

“She just does that!” Dorcas tries to explained, Marlene scoffed

“She said my closest friend would betray me, killing my Family in the process! What kinda of bullshit is that” Marlene shouted,

“I’m sorry! She- she just-“ Dorcas stuttered, unable to find the words. Pandora didn’t mean to, she never meant to. Dorcas knew that, Marlene didn’t.

Dorcas knew Marlene wouldn’t understand, Marlene had in fact boasted many times that divination was a useless subject. No one could actually see into the future.

Whether that’s true or not depends on if regulus did really die at only 18. Dorcas’s friends had learned to look past there apparent deaths, but Marlene wouldn’t know how to.

“Christ Dorcas” Marlene finally said, “you know I love you but, Jesus your friends are weird”

“Everyone knows Pandora is weird!” Dorcas groaned,

“But this is a new level of weird!” Marlene sighed, “Christ, just give me some space right now while I think about the fact that I’m going to die young!” Marlene stomped off, leaving Dorcas standing in the hallway.

She was trapped, trapped in the thought that Marlene might just break up with her. She didn’t even hear the footsteps come up behind her, but then again no one hears her footsteps.

“I didn’t mean to” a small whisper said, Dorcas jumped. She snapped her head to see a ghostly figure next to her, even with the tan skin.

“I’m sorry Pandora, I know it’s not your fault” Dorcas said, slowly embracing Pandora. Turning her away and back to the dungeons.

“I really didn’t mean to, it was a mistake. I tried not to slip I really tried!” Pandora pleaded,

“Shush dear, I know it’s not your fault”

2 years.

It took regulus 2 years to figure out how badly he messed up.

It took regulus 2 years to tell the one boy, who finally saw who he really was, that he loved him

And it took 2 years for regulus to realised he messed up.

Regulus stood over the bowl, horcrux in hand.

In the background he could hear Kreacher telling him he had to leave.

In the background the sounds of inferni were moving towards him.

In the back off his mind was his sense of urgency, in the front was James.

It was always James, James potter. The love of his life, off dating Lily Evan’s the girl he liked forever.

They were always going to end up together, they were destined for eachother.

Regulus knew that when he started dating James but he wanted the potter all to himself and he destroyed it

James wanted regulus all to himself but from the very start regulus had stated that his family was always his priority.

The black family? Why would that be his priority, it wasn’t truly. He was just scared.

So now, 2 years later regulus is standing in the cave, handing the horcrux to Kreacher and screaming at him to leave

Now, 2 years later, regulus is screaming for James, trying to claw his body away from the hands of the inferni.

And now 2 years later, he feels a familiar warmth grab onto his hand and pull.

2 years later he’s in the arms of James again, but at what cost?

I’ve decided to share with you guys my short story for English assignment. I got an A- on it so I hope you all like it 😁

A Universe Apart

James wandering around felt useless, his brain spun with various thoughts. Throughout the last few hours, he had found himself in many places that can’t even exist on earth. He had been walking endlessly and painfully through a dark and creepy forest for a while now. A cloud of fog surrounded him, corrupting his vision making him barley able to see. His body limply wandered around the forest; he was certain he had been past these trees before. He could barely think straight, his mind racing with every possible reason on how he ended up here. James knew that at any second, he was gonna be chased by some monster. While he wandered, his obstructed vision stayed peeled for any signs of human life, any sign of Regulus. Because one second, Regulus was there and the next he wasn’t, James practically broke down completely when he disappeared. He couldn’t function without Regulus. He snapped out of his train of thought and stood in place, he groaned loudly and spun around trying to find something different, but every single path led to the same place. James rubbed his eyes, keeping his hands there for a few moments, hoping that when he opens them, he’s back in his apartment. Where Regulus is standing in front of him, yelling at him. James would much rather go back to Regulus yelling at him then losing him. When he finally opened his eyes, he was disappointed to still be face to face with trees.

‘This doesn’t make sense’ He thought. One second, he was having an argument with Regulus and the next Regulus was gone, and moments later James was gone too. He felt his body fume, transporting to different places at random points of time, it doesn’t make any sense.

“Jesus Christ,” he mumbled. He slipped his glasses off for a second, taking this moment to rub his eyes again and sigh, once he placed them back on, he spotted something unfamiliar in the distance. A tall figure, he could barely make it out, but he was certain it wasn’t a tree. James looked around for any other signs of life, when he looked back the figure had ventured forwards. It was almost half the height the trees were, and it practically towered over James even though it was still so far away.

“What on earth?” he whispered, the figure stayed still, continuing to stare at him. James eyes wandered for a second to check his surroundings, when his eyes went back; the figure was closer. He could see it clearer now, tall, skinny and pale, its body veiny and slimy with a large smile plastered over its face. James body straightened and grew tense, he realised quickly that as soon as he looked away it was going to move closer.

James chuckled to himself, he did say there would be a monster. He decided looking away was the best choice. Whatever it was, it was either going to have to kill him or help him. When he looked back the figure was standing right in front of him, if James moved even an inch he would be touching it. James was at eye level with the monster’s knees, slowly James looked up, its face was look down at him smiling. James carefully stepped backwards, keeping an eye on the monster at the same time. He rolled his eyes; his breathing grew heavy and his eyes furrowed.

“I said,” He huffed “I’m not DEALING WITH THIS!” James’s outburst seemed to send him to a rocky, snowy mountain range. A chill ran down his spine immediately as he rubbed his hands together then crossing his arms to try to bring some form of heat to himself.

“Oh my god!” James chuckled; he couldn’t believe it. A burst of hysterical laughter fell out of his mouth, he really couldn’t believe it. James looked around, Jagged mountains on the brink of falling surrounded him. As he turned around trying to find something other than mountain, he spotted something in the distance. Something out of place, something that wasn’t rocks and snow, it wasn’t too far so it made it easy to identify. A person. James felt a wave of hope wash over him; he started running. Running towards whoever it was, James prayed that he wasn’t going to be sent somewhere else or fall into a crack in the mountain. Although the person wasn’t that far away, he felt as if he was running forever. As James approached the body, he noticed immediately that they were… dead. James sighed, he was still alone, without Regulus, but now he knew that other people have been stuck there too. James examined the body; they were already half decomposed, and the stench was indescribable. James almost walked away until his eyes landed on a shiny object, a large emerald ring. James felt his stomach drop. He slipped off the ring and looked back at the body.

“Regulus…” His voice barley above a whisper, James continued staring at the body. His partner was dead. James blinked and found himself somewhere else. He looked down at the ring that was in his hands. The ring that he picked out without a second thought, the ring that caused their fight. Regulus was wearing the ring, he said yes. James let out a painful sob, he slipped the ring into his pocket. James looked around him, the place was a long empty field, the grass dying, the sky completely grey. In the distance large building, bikes, trees and other various objects were sinking into the ground. James started walking. His mind racing with the last memory he had with Regulus.

“James,” Regulus sighed “why should I say yes?”

“Because I love you,” James pleaded, his voice cracking “and I can’t imagine being with anyone else.” He was practically on his knees, his eyes blurry and watery.

“There are so many other factors to think about!” Regulus retorted, his own voice breaking.

“Forget the factors! Why can’t you just love me?” James finally snapped; Regulus flinched at the sound. A wave of guilt washed over James; he started to mutter apologies.

James kept walking; he walked until his body physically couldn’t anymore. He collapsed onto the floor, his legs screaming in discomfort. The pain of losing the only person who ever truly loved him, all hitting him at once. James curled into a ball and sobbed, clawing at the grass, screaming and crying, a knot forming in his stomach. Slowly the ground sunk, like the buildings and bikes, James was becoming submerged by the ground. He didn’t try to get out. He knew he was lost without Regulus. The pressure began to snap James bones, the sound of crunching filling his ears, he screamed in agony. All James could do was remember regulus, his favourite memories.

“Did you know that when the body dies the brain stays active for another 7 minutes?” James said, bouncing towards Regulus.

“That’s not actually true, there’s no scientific evidence.” Regulus chuckled, letting James’s arms wrap around his waist and bring them together.

“Well even if it isn’t true,” James smiled “I’d still be thinking about you before I died.”

Evan practically broke down the door into the common room. Speeding past everyone, all his friends and a concerned sister. He was clearly pissed but recently he’s been on edge more than usual, that’s why his friends didn’t go after him. But then again recently Evan has also recently been trying to forget his feelings for Barty but Barty is not helping that at all.

Evan burst the door open the his dorm room, slamming it shut behind him and making Barty jump at the sound. Barty sat up on his bed staring at Evan who was rapidly approaching.

“Merlin’s beard!” Barty chuckled, “what’s go your panties in a-“ but before Barty could finish the sentence, Evan was already pouncing on Barty snogging the living daylights out of him.

Evan was certain the Barty was going to push him off immediately but to his suprise Barty pulled him onto his lap and kissed him back. Bartys hands held Evan’s waist tightly while Evan was squishing there faces together like if they broke apart the world would end.

Evan was even more surprised when Barty did break apart there kiss, not to be mad at Evan but to slowly kiss down Evan’s neck. Long and hard kisses in between quick and small kisses.

Small gasps left Evan’s mouth as Barty continued kissing at his neck, moving as best he could to reach Evan’s collar bones. Bartys hands had starts unbuttoning Evan’s shirt and without thinking Evan was doing to same with Bartys.

“I wasn’t expecting this reaction” Evan’s breathed out as on of Bartys hand reached up to pull on Evan’s hair

“Well I wasn’t expecting you to start snogging me but here we are” Barty responded into Evan’s neck, “I do have one question though” Barty slowly pulled back, the two finally faces eachother. Eyes locking, Evan couldn’t help but get lost in Bartys eyes

“What is it?” Evan’s whispered,

“Why did you start kissing me?” Barty asked, clearly unsure of his question. Evan’s couldn’t help but laugh, Barty rolled his eyes at the boy

“Jesus Barty” Evan’s laughed out “how dense are you!”

“I’m sorry I’m not great at context clues!” Barty laughed,

“Oh so me snogging you wasn’t enough of a context clue?”

“I don’t know maybe you were just… horny?”

“Fucking hell Barty!” Evan’s laugh now filled up the room.

“We’ve done it before!”

“Ok well right now i wanna have sex with you because I’m hoping… you like me back”

“You like me?” Barty whispered

“I’ll leave” Evan said, the seriousness in his voice was enough for Barty to realise to take it back

“Right sorry,” Barty chuckled, he started at Evan for a few moments before muttering out “I like you too”

Headcannon that James was the biggest hater ever. He and peter were mad shit talkers and soon Remus joined that club. Sirius did not join the club but he did listen in on many meetings (he hated privately unless it was his snape). So imagine the marauders all in there dorm, Remus studying on the floor, Peter sitting on his bed, James hanging upside down off his bed and Sirius kicking his feet next to Remus hating on anyone that pissed them off that day. James may seem nice on the outside but deep down he was a hater and his friends found it hilarious that some people he “liked” he actually “disliked” as he states, because he does not hate people he just dislikes there actions.

I imagine Marlene McKinnon to have been a very loud 11 year old. Very loud and with the strongest Scottish accent you’ve ever heard. Eventually over the year you learn to understand her and eventually over the year the Scottish accent would phase out to something more understandable for everyone’s poor British souls. Over the Christmas holidays Marlene would come back having gained a small accent over the holiday. But when the break between the school years roll around she would come back to school with a Scottish accent again, and again you could not understand her. Marlene realised quickly that when he friends don’t understand her she can say whatever she wanted, one day she tried that with Peter. For some reason, Peter was the only one who could understand her. So Peter was the first to know about her crush on Dorcas. Marlene asked how Peter could understand her because it seemed as though no body else in the entire school could, Peter somehow concealed the fact that his own father was exactly like her, but the accent never faded away.

(please I’m not British so like idk what holidays it’s called between school years, like idk if it’s summer or winter or in between, it’s confusing and also seasons are backwards there)

James: my mum is mad at me

Sirius: what did you do?

James: I can’t remember, it’s been forty five minutes and she’s still muttering to herself in the kitchen

I think what I love about gilderat is how complex it could be. Imagine the marauders, absolutely despising gilderoy for how stuck up and stubborn he is (not Like there any different). But then there was Peter, less stuck up and stubborn than the other marauders and also absolutely obsessed with gilderoy. He never expressed these feeling to anyone and he was good at hiding it, until gilderoy was moved into Peter’s class because of reasons he was paying attention to. Slughorn paired gilderoy with Peter claiming “you will do better with him rather than mucking around with all your dumb friends,” so Peter reluctantly agreed.

Over the next year Peter would absolutely despise gilderoy for being smarter than him and absolutely despise how attractive he was. So when it was late and they were Together in the potions classroom, Peter was very ready to go back to his dorm and sleep. That was until gilderoy practically pounced on Peter, there lips interlocking and Peter didn’t complain. Instead gilderoys hand pulled frantically at Peter’s hair and Peter pulling on gilderoys waistint, wanting him closer.

And they kept it a secret, for a while atleast. But they never dated, atleast that was gilderoy said, and yes there was the whole cologne thing, Peter would ask but never get an answer. And yes Peter also asked why they couldn’t date, because he loved the sneaking around in broom closets and empty classroom, once even in the dorms at a gryffindor party. But gilderoy would play it into the fact that he was “straight”

So they kept it a secret, for a while atleast. That was until Peter had enough, he confessed how he actually felt about gilderoy and gilderoy never spoke to him again. James knew soemthing was wrong with Peter so that how the secret “got out” only to James of course and he never even made fun of Peter for it.

Gilderoy however, did like Peter. He was just scared that Peter was lying to him. Peter pettigrew the weird kid that was roped into the “popular crowd”, he must be secretly and arsehole waiting to put gilderoy to the entire school, or just using him for to get off.

In a letter sent to Peter after they graduated, it included the name of a perfume and an apology. Peter knew who it was from immediately, but he never accepted the apology

Moony toast as clay!!!! I had a mars bar too but I gave it to a friend!

I wrote a Jegulus fanfiction for my English short story thinking my teacher wouldn’t know what the marauders were but she came up to me giving me feedback and said “maybe this is just my fanfiction brain” and then she said “maybe discuss some of there years at Hogwarts” and I genuinely have no idea what I felt in my moment but afterwards I could not stop giggling

I’m going to start pushing Russian Barty for reason I cannot explain but I just need to be heard out 🙌

I could say the same for remus about Sirius

what’s the point of having a boyfriend if he doesn’t moan like a girl

When regulus told Sirius he was trans, Sirius practice told James immediately. Sirius only told James so he could protect regulus. James wasn’t a violent person but when it came to someone he loved he would do anything to protect them. At the time Sirius didn’t know James loves regulus, at the time Sirius didn’t know regulus had already told James, had already asked him to protect him, indirectly of course. Sirius only figured it out when James punched someone for insulting regulus, Sirius only figured it out because James would do anything for someone he loved.

Ok we all hear the fact that Sirius is a short king but out of all the marauders, Peter is the shortest. Probably by like 2 cm but you know that Sirius makes sure Peter knows at any second of the day because he needs the ego boost. Peter doesn’t care to much though, he enjoys his short life and he thinks that he wouldn’t suit being taller than he is.

Sirius: I would still love you if you were a worm! Infact I would give you a little home with other worm friends and feed you

Lily: you’d make him compost?

Sirius and James pureblood mindset: what is compost?

James was actually really good at singing, he just never showed it because he thought it was embarrassing. The only person who ever heard him sing was regulus, completely by accident of course. Regulus was a bit late to meeting James at the astronomy tower one night, James decided to take the time alone to sing aloud a song he had stuck in his head (he always had something stuck in his head). Regulus was mesmerised by the sound and ended up being later than he expected, just because he was standing listening to James sing. James from then on would sing to regulus, whether he was having a panic attack or just sitting together and regulus asks, James would sing for him.

After they broke up, regulus found himself mumbling songs that meant something to him and james. James however, never sang again.
