After seeing about 50 'Dumbledore is evil' and 'everything is Dumbledore's fault' and 'but why didn't Dumbledore did this or the other' posts in a row, I find myself wishing Dumbledore just fucked off to somewhere nice and sunny in '81, early retirement (or is it early if he's already 100?) and washed his hands off magical Britain entirely.

Some of y'all sound like Fudge with your Dumbledore bashing. I wish, at least, Dumbledore would have left when Fudge and that corrupt as hell Ministry did their best to ruin his name and his image.

Pack up his ancient shit and move to a nice beach somewhere, with his pet bird and a huge bag of candy.

This way, my man Voldemort could have won in like five minutes, and Harry would be dead, Voldemort would rule supreme, Bella would keep being the queen she is, and my little Voldemort shaped heart would be happy.

But no, Dumbledore stayed, orchestrated Voldemort's downfall by giving Harry step by step instructions, gave up his own life in the process, made sure Harry would keep his, because apparently that's what 'evil men' do instead of retiring in comfort.

Not only Harry wouldn't have survived without Dumbledore, but he most likely wouldn't even exist without Dumbledore. Because, you know, this evil man is also the one that took down another dark lord back in the day; if Grindelwald would have won, there would be no Lily, most likely. Thus no Harry.

But yes, go get your 'Dumbledore is evil' badges- I hear Fudge and Umbridge are leaders of the hate club, I'm sure they'll receive new followers with open arms. Draco is probably the secretary, because he hates Dumbledore, too, and he likes making badges.

Also, can someone explain to me how Dumbledore, the only gay man in canon, became the fandom's resident homophobe? That's just weird, my friends. Very weird, to say the least. It gets even nastier when you say he 'groomed' students. That's an awful thing to throw around about a gay dude, you know?

There are so many reasons one can dislike Dumbledore for, but you do have the option to not like a flawed character without turning them into a ridiculous caricature of themselves.

P.S: I am not talking about fics. Write your fics and your characters however you want, whatever makes you happy. Your fic is your domain, and you do whatever you want in there, hopefully with no asshole to attack you in the comments. Same with reading- read what you want, bashing or no bashing. Have the best of fun!

I am talking about these 'meta' type posts on social media, tagged with "Albus Dumbledore", where they act as if canon Dumbledore was legit evil, incompetent or homophobic.

I love Canon Remus and all of his flaws. Enough of this "Casanova of Gryffindor Tower" BS, Remus is the cowardly lion of Gryffindor tower. He values bravery because it is something that he lacks and yet still strives to be. He has an ingrained sense of shame and self-loathing and an inferiority complex that stems from society's contempt and marginalization towards Lycanthropy, a condition he was cursed with from a very young age. He wasn't a leader, he was a follower. A blind follower who believed to his core that he was unworthy of love and respect because of what he was.

Which opens the door to what I believe to be Remus' greatest flaw: His unwavering, unquestioning devotion to Albus Dumbledore.

I think Remus saw Dumbledore as the perfect encapsulation of Good. He was everything that Remus desperately wanted to be, everything that society was determined to believe a werewolf could never be. And maybe, if Remus could earn (and cling to) Dumbledore's favor and make him proud, he would prove to the world and himself that he is Good, too, in spite of his lifelong curse.

Remus felt that he owed Dumbledore a debt he could never hope to repay for allowing this chronically ill little boy into his school when no werewolf before him had ever been given such an opportunity. So many of Remus' choices in canon stem directly from this imagined debt that he had dedicated his life to paying. Hell, he didn't even hold a grudge against Snape for OUTING HIM to the entire wizarding world simply because Dumbledore trusted him.

Remus trusted Dumbledore wholeheartedly. And Dumbledore personally saw to Harry's placement with the Dursleys. Why should Remus have considered, for even a moment, that Harry wasn't safe? Certainly far safer than he would have been with a monster in close proximity, as Remus believed himself to be. In his mind, staying away from Harry was what was best for Harry. Until Dumbledore needed a favor, that is.

It's reductive to suggest that Remus failed Harry (and by extension, James) for putting his trust in Dumbledore to do right by Harry. James and Sirius trusted Dumbledore, too. They all did. Stripping away all of the nuance and blaming the abuse Harry suffered on Remus is simply unfair. NO ONE helped Harry, not even those who were fully equipped to do so, and Remus was the farthest thing from being equipped to take that on, what with being an impoverished werewolf living in a society that reviles his very existence. The only person who could have saved Harry from the abuse was the very man that placed him in that home, the very man that Remus revered with blind conviction.

#canon Remus is so complex and interesting #he's spineless and soft and consumed by self-loathing and fear #I think he was drawn to Sirius and James and Gryffindor House in general for the same reasons he was devoted to Dumbledore #He was quick to believe that Sirius was guilty because he had no confidence in himself to make his own judgement #He considered himself to be an inherent monster battling endlessly to supress his evil nature #and therefore placed all of his faith in those he believed to be Wholly Good #Reducing his character to “selfish manipulative coward” is a disservice #Also erasing these flaws in favor of the Fanon cocky asshole alpha male wattpad werewolf Remus is a massive disservice #remus lupin #marauders #character study #Canon Remus Defense Squad #i could rattle on and on about this topic for hours

“how can you not like Snape but like Regulus, Barty, and Evan?”

Because, in my mind, Snape was a bitch (derogatory), and Regulus, Barty, and Evan were bitches (affectionately)

#no but seriously #Snape is a cool character and I’ll readily admit that #but if you’re allowed to headcanon that a character was evil when they were in school #despite having little evidence of what they were even like overall #much less from 11 to 17 years old #aren’t i also allowed to make Snape a little bit of the antagonist during his school years #especially if there’s canon information that he WAS a bad person back then? #not that I take canon too seriously anyways #but my point still stands #you can have your headcanons #but let me have mine too #okay? #evan rosier #barty crouch jr #regulus black #slytherin skittles #marauders era #marauders fandom

Sirius: And how are you little baby brother Reggie?

Regulus: You're so embarrassing literally stop

James: You literally sign yourself as R.A.B, you have no right to talk about embarrassing

Sirius: How do you know how he signs?

Remus: Definitely not because they send each other love letters every other day

Regulus: Well! I think I better be off now

Sirius: Wait wait WAIT-

Barty Crouch Jr.

"Wormtail, I need somebody with brains, somebody whose loyalty has never been wavered, and you, unfortunately, fulfill neither requirement" -Voldemort to Peter

"I was under my father's control, I was forced to wear an invisibilty cloak day and night. I was always with the house elf. She was my keeper and care taker, she pitied me"

"Should have spent a bit more time at home with his family, shouldn't he? Ought to have left the office early once in a while...got to know his son" - Sirius Black, about Barty's father

"Father I didn't! I didn't, I swear it, Father..

Don't send me there, don't let him! I'm your son! I'm your son!"

"Who put your name in the Goblet of Fire, under the name of a different school? I did. Who frightened off every person who i thought might try to hurt you or prevent you from winning the tournament? I did. Who nudged Hagrid into showing you the dragons? I did. Who helped you to see the only way you could beat the dragon? I did"

"Mad, am i?"

[jewishregulus]

thinking lot abt regulus and how he would be such a touchy affectionate person trying very hard not to be , bc tough is still like weird and uncomfy for him . he doesn’t WANT to get the urge to squeeze people everytime he feels happy but unfortunately he does . he’s always finding little excuses to touch the people he cares abt like correcting ties brushing off lint fixing folds etc .. but they all know the Truth … if regulus pulls a stray thread off your shirt it’s like he just hugged you gently . he helps pandora braid her hair even tho they could just magic it because he likes feeling the softness of her hair it calms him down …. but he can’t just Be affectionate with her are you crazy . james is the first person he is touchy with without making excuses . first time he offers barty a high five barty jumps in the air like a cartoon character and runs a lap around the room. before regulus would say there was a fly in the palm of barty’s hand regulus was trying to swat away, that’s all….. do we see the vision

#marauders #marauders era #regulus black #rab #yeahh this is the one!!! #i love him and his love for humanity and the world he holds despite wishing he didn’t #when you want to be evil but unfortunately you care too much and are too inherently kind :/

LYALL LUPIN WASNT A BAD FATHER!

Imagine your son gets bitten by a werewolf when he’s four, and you have to lock him in a closet or whatever every month and listen to him calling for his mum and dad knowing you can’t go to him.

No-one in the wizarding world world would be prepared for that. They wouldn’t know how to raise a werewolf because it’s not something you would ever expect to have to do. Yes, he was probably distant, emotionally and physically, but he tried his best.

Some fics hc that he killed himself because Remus was a werewolf. That could be taken as that he was ashamed, but honestly it makes so much more sense that he felt guilty. His four year old son was attacked and he didn’t/couldn’t stop it, and then he had to deal with listening to his son in pain every month, probably blaming himself 24/7, convincing himself that it’s his fault that his son will never be able to go to Hogwarts and live a normal life.

And then imagine him watching Remus get the letter in the post. Imagine how scared he must have been for him. Imagine him spending every full moon restless and unable to sleep, terrified that this time would be the one where Remus was sent home, or worse, sent to prison.

[moonagedaydreamsofrhiannon]

btw Dream Girl Evil by Florence + the Machine was written about lily evans

the way snape treated her like a perfect fantasy “dream girl” that he could project onto but the second she did something he didn’t like and shattered the illusion by being an actual multilayered human being he became enraged and turned on her

and the way the fandom does the same exact bullshit, treating her like a perfect saint mother and wife instead of an actual realistic human being with flaws and complexities, and then the second she doesn’t serve a man’s story (cough cough jegulus shippers cough cough) they turn her into a villain or toss her aside completely

Evil

(cw: implied child abuse)

When James owled that Sirius ran away from his evil family and was now staying with the Potters, he didn't think twice as he Flooed to their house, wanting to see him for himself.

"He's upstairs in the guest room," James said when he arrived. Remus nodded and rushed up.

Sirius's back was to him as he entered. "Padfoot?" Remus said tentatively.

He turned around and Remus approached him slowly. As he drank in the sight of him, Remus was relieved to see there didn't seem to be any visible marks on his pale skin. Remus pulled him close, into a tight hug, which Sirius returned readily. "Are you…you know, ok?"

Sirius buried his face in Remus's neck. "I will be."
