#remus loves his friends

[hotdamnitsmoony]

remus lupin who sits by a barely open window with a book in the dorm while it rains. remus lupin who loves to step on the frosted leaves that are scattered across the school grounds. remus lupin who is always absentmindedly humming while he studies. remus lupin who admires his friends animation as they talk when he’s too tired to join the conversation. remus lupin who buries himself in a book or studying when he’s stressed or anxious. remus lupin who begrudgingly joins in when his friends are dancing around the common room. remus lupin who is glad that he gets to have friends but overthinks it at any given moment.

#remus lupin hums and you can’t persuade me otherwise #remus #remus lupin #remus john lupin #remus j lupin #rj lupin #moony #remus lupin headcanon #maybe i’m projecting #remus loves his friends #marauders #marauders era #dead gay wizards #marauders drabble #dead gay wizards from the 70s

Thinking about teenage Sirius, wickedly smart with top grades, a rich heir to an old pureblood house, tall and handsome and haugty, drawing many admiring and envious looks that he appears to be above acknowledging. Popular, yet sticks to his small and close circle of friends, not really allowing anyone else close.

But even with them he's guarded about his own physical space; the old uncease is hard to shake, and it twists the want into knots. No matter how much he craves this intimicy, he struggles to accept it when it's given, and initiating it himself is even more difficult.

Padfoot makes everything simple, though. And so Sirius starts turning into him whenever he needs to be close - because asking for cuddles is so much easier for the dog than it is for the boy.

#sirius black #also love a sirius who hugs and leans on his friends without problems!!! #but ugghhgg been thinking about this version lately #😭😭 #and!!! FOR YOU CAT!!! #cuddle the dog #!!! and also the boy PLEASE he deserves all the cuddles <333 #also this can be platonic or romantic and whatever ship honestly #but ofc my heart makes this #wolfstar #james would not give up on his hugging mission + sirius is definitely the most comfortable hugging him #but remus would let sirius initiate it if he wants it which means NO HUGS and SO MUCH PINING #and LOTS OF puppy cuddles #they'll get there though <3

Prompt: Why are you carrying a duck?

Regulus had learned to not ask questions.

Dating James Potter had its....unique qualities, and looking the other way when he and his friends were wreaking havoc was one of them. Remus had advised him long ago to just ignore it, as that gave him plausible deniability.

But this time, he just...couldn't. He couldn't leave well enough alone. He had to ask.

"James...James...Potter!" He yelled at a frantic-looking James, who was currently running across the grounds, arms full and head swiveling.

"Don't ask..." Dorcas muttered next to him, not even looking up from her book.

But he couldn't not ask. He left the spot where the rest of his friends were studying and ran up to James, who was now walking slowly around by the edge of the lake, muttering 'Pads? Where are you?' clearly looking for something.

"James!" he said again, this time finally gaining the older boy's attention.

"Erm...yes, Reg?" James responded, obviously trying to look innocent but failing miserably.

Regulus sighed. "Why are you holding a duck, James."

James shifted from foot to foot, the struggling animal still flapping a bit in his arms. "Erm...what if I said this hasn't always been a duck? And...this isn't the only not-duck currently wandering the grounds?"

Regulus stared, taking in James's words, before exhaling sharply. "Never mind. I don't want to know."

And he returned to his spot with Dorcas.

to say that remus would play down sirius’ trauma or mock him or whatever is ridiculous when sirius started to cry in poa remus literally cut him off because hearing him upset upset him!!!!!!!

#don’t know how many times i have to say this but remus might … idk he might love his friends #he might be filled with love and adoration for his friends. #wolfstar

[chasingthestarss]

Sirius loving Remus was very hard. Because he wanted to give Remus everything he had and it felt like betraying James, who had always been there for him. And Sirius never felt that way for James ever, but still loving another one of his friends felt like betraying James.

Regulus watching Sirius’ guilt and hating that Sirius could feel bad for loving someone more than he loved James but not feel guilty for loving James as a brother more than he loved Regulus

#marauders era #dead gay wizards #regulus black #james potter #sirius black #remus lupin #wolfstar #Sirius black felt guilty all the time honestly #for one thing or another #James loved that his friend was in love #Sirius just doesn’t realize that there are different types of love #James and Remus are teaching him though #also yes regulus is sad leave him alone

[littleliterarylesbian]

The King (Conan Gray) wolfstar au is suchhhhh a good idea omg

Sirius who's been going through so many girls that it's actually quite alarming, Sirius claims they go on actual dates and that it's an actual relationship each time, but they hardly last more than two months, minus Mary who had been dating Sirius for five before she broke up with him. Sirius comes back to the dorm, whining about how no one ever feels right, and that they all suck anyways. But it's always Remus who he complains to. Remus with his small smile and warm brown eyes, and the way he always pets Sirius' head when he grumbles and whines. Nothing could be better.

Remus who has always had a thing for Sirius, who was devastated when Sirius started getting around until he realized that at the end of the day, at the end of each relationship, Sirius went to him. Sirius crawled into his bed. Sirius wanted to be comforted by him. Not James, not Peter, not the next girl he had set his eyes on, but him. And that made him feel amazing, in some probably horrible way. That despite how many hearts Sirius breaks, despite how many other lips his had touched, he was always who Sirius came back to in the end.

He just wished that maybe there could be more.

#btw when mary broke up w sirius she tried to hint at him that maybe he liked remus as more than a friend but it went right over his head #but listennnnn i think I should write it seriously #but i have to work on my other wips lmao #marauders era #marauders #harry potter #hp marauders #dead wizards from the 70s #dead gay wizards #black brothers #sirius black #remus lupin #wolfstar #remus x sirius #remus loves sirius #sirius is oblivious #.taus

On the topic of Regulus' patronus, since I won't let this die until I see it in a fic even if I have to write it myself.

Regulus: Why can't I get this bloody charm to work

Remus: Happy thoughts, Reg. Happy thoughts.

Regulus: What part of my upbringing gave you the illusion I have those?

Remus: Happy. Thoughts

Peter: Think like that fairy! Tonker Bells!

Remus: Tinker Bell. Purebloods.

Regulus: Could you two stop arguing over muggle cartoons so I can focus!

Regulus: Expecto Patronum!

Sirius: Bloody hell Reggie, is that a lion?

Regulus: Oh.

James: Oh.

Remus: He's beautiful Reg, what are you going to name him?

Regulus: Helios

Sirius: You're going to name your patronus after the sun?

Regulus: It keeps to the family theme doesn't it?

Sirius: Mother would have a fit. Looks like both her sons are more Gryffindor than Black. This is bloody brilliant! Told you Reggie, you should've been sorted into Gryffindor!

James: I think his patronus is perfect for him.

Regulus: I think so too.

#just imagine its an AU where Regulus ran away with Sirius to the Potters #Regulus likes to hang out with the Maraduers in the Gryffindor Common Room #James was trying not to cry after he saw the patronus #James did in fact cry after he heard the name #James remembered all the times Regulus called him 'my sun' and 'sunshin' and he KNEW #they havent said I love you yet but this was somehow even more profound #Remus is just eaying his chocolate amused by Regulus and James being idiots in love #remus knew they were in love and thats why he convinced Regulus to practice the Patronus in the common room #Sirius isnt actually unaware of the secret romance between his best friend and brother but he has a bet going with Peter #they want to see who will confess to him firsr #itll be James #while drunk #jegulus #marauders headcanon #incorrect marauders quotes #dead gay wizards #regulus deserved better #regulus x james #regulus arcturus black #james deserved better #james fleamont potter #james x regulus #starchaser

Remus realized then that he had fallen in love with the three boys. His boys. The Marauders.

Remus loved James and his happiness. He loved the way he brought light into this world without any effort. His bright smile. The amount of love he had for others. Remus loved the way he felt special when he was with James. How he could easily forget about his problems or think he was invincible next to James. It was an honor to be his friend, to be called one of his boys. To be included into his plans and mischief.

Remus loved Peter's silent understanding. The way Peter was genuinely amazing without even realizing. He was actually funny without trying. Remus felt heard with Peter. He was a really good friend. He knew things, he noticed things, he understood. He didn't question things. He was good listening and good giving a little piece of advice. It was comforting to have him around. Remus liked his presence, his soft smile and intense blue eyes that knew it all. Remus felt warm when he hugged Peter.

And there was Sirius. The love Remus felt for Sirius was different. It included a desire not only physical but also of a certain type of closeness he wanted only with him. Remus had loved Sirius since forever. He stored that boy in his heart like a precious diamond. Sirius made him feel many things that included butterflies on his belly, adrenaline through his body, and joy to see him smile. Remus craved for his lips and his touch. But also learn all his secrets. The intimate act of knowing him more than anyone in the world. Remus wanted to belong with Sirius and Sirius to belong with him. Remus loved his charm, his sense of justice, his rebellious side. He was thrill to explore new things and get to discover new places. Sirius was the boy of his dreams, the love of his life. Remus loved him differently (romantically) but it didn't mean it was more or less intense than the way he loved the others.

Remus had learn what real friendship looked like with these boys. He had discovered what a true family looked like. Nobody had accepted him so easily, took care of him so easily and loved him so easily without wanting anything in exchange. What was he supposed to do with that? Becoming part of The Marauders had been like falling in love. Remus loved his friends more than anyone else in the world. And now that he was part of something like this, the Marauders family, he never wanted to get out. He didn't want this love to end.

#The Marauders are so close #It isn't just Wolfstar and James and Peter as side characters #Remus loves Sirius but also James and Peter #I hate when Remus is annoyed or embarrassed by his friends in fics #He would literally die for them #Platonic love is as beautiful and valid as romantic love #marauders #marauders era #remus lupin #james potter #peter pettigrew #sirius black #wolfstar #platonic love #falling in love platonically

[shootingthe-stars]

one day remus will be free from the mean allegations. that is my sweet boy!!! yes he gets mad, the world is so cruel to him, but at the end he chooses to be kind and loving in a world that hates him and thinks he’s evil!!! please!!!

#discriminated and stereotyped as rude and dangerous -> fanon makes him rude and dangerous #WHAT? #that’s my sweet boy. he loves his mom. he loves his friends. he loves!! #remus lupin #the marauders #marauders #wolfstar #this is my second anti fanon post #sorry everyone i came back to this fandom after 3 years and everyone is so different #i cant get with it

[poolpvrty]

Well, I've been afraid of changin' 'Cause I've built my life around you But time makes you bolder Even children get older And I'm getting older too

The sun, the moon, and their star!

#back at it again with my sirius james and remus bullshit #this time featuring their slight redesigns #paired with a sad fleetwood mac song #sirius black #james potter #remus lupin #this is them in the middle of the war i think. they're definitely adults but not quite “old” #i just love the idea of sirius having a super curly funky mustache and pretty wispy hair #very suave very nonchalant very sexy and he knows it yk? #and remus being this shy bashful mess with a mean temper #everything about him is unremarkable but he's so kind and it makes sirius short circut #and james is so arrogant but he tries hard to humble himself often #he's a bright person and it's just so natural for him he doesn't mean to “take up space” #weirdly his overbearing presence and painfully sunny personality is what people in the order end up liking most about him. #they're all kinda assholes but they're growing and trying to be better #“i guess I've still got some more healing to do.” #marauders #hp marauders #hp fanart #best friends <3 #moonchaser #wolfstar #prongsfoot #artists on tumblr #<3

[v-a-l]

The worst thing about Wolfstar is that Remus’ mediocrity and negligence is blamed on Sirius to facilitate a false equivalence that hinges entirely on Remus having Sirius’ personality and Sirius having no personality.

#sirius black #remus lupin critical #marauders #hp #with the way fandom harps on about Sirius’ reckleness and irresponsibility #you’d think he was the one who abandoned his pregnant wife and unborn child #and blasted his dead best friend’s kid into a wall in his other dead best friend’s house #You can argue that Remus owed nothing to the Potters ans Harry #I’d agree and say this is exactly why James AND LILY made SIRIUS the godfather #Dude was out there feeling sorry for himself when Sirius was crawling out of Azkaban and eating Rats for Harry #While Remus could hardly be persuaded to stay for his own kid #and you’d think he’d have raised Harry better or loved him better? #I think not.

yk what pisses me the fuck off? people being so obsessed w regulus that they downplay sirius' trauma just to make reg a sadder character that they can relate to. do whatever u want with reg - this is a free fandom, jkr doesn't run it and ur allowed to think whatever, but its actually baffling how ur willing to legit take away sirius' trauma for reg. i've seen people say that 'reg is the second choice child' like... ur kidding me, right? just because... he's younger?? doesn't make him second choice??? i will confidently say that sirius is 100% the less favoured child and i will fight anyone on it - i mean, how is this even a fucking debate?!? what is wrong with people?! sure, reg's story is sad and interesting but i desperately need you to stop depriving him of every little good thing in his life just to improve his story.

i will 100% confidently say that sirius is objectively one of the most, if not the most, traumatised character in the marauders fandom. yes, i know we shouldn't compare people's trauma, and with any other character i wouldn't. but this is sirius. he was physically and mentally abused by his parents, he felt that he had to protect a young child when he was only a year older and developed a martyr complex, had his family try and manipulate him into joining their cult at 16, ran away from home and was disowned at 16, grew up in wartime, he became a child solider at 18, his *adoptive* parents died at 19, his brother died at 19, his relationship w remus was falling apart, he got framed for the murder of his bsfs at 21 and then spent 12 years of his life getting his soul sucked out of him, at 33 he gets let out and his godson thinks he's a murderer and he has to un-learn his dog-like behaviours, at 34 the war begins again, at 35 he dies, and then in the afterlife watches remus have a wife and child. please fight me on this because i could go all day for him.

#please lets not debate about this #just because he had friends doesn't mean he was a-ok #like im disappointed that as a fandom we've downgraded his CANON trauma #its canon guys!!!! #not even a fucking headcanon #like remus having a bad father is just a headcanon #im petitioning rn to stop making reg a sad little emo baby #sure he had a shit life #but u need to get it in ur brains that there are some yes SOME tiny good aspects of his life #yeah alright his parents were abusive to him and they never really loved him #but to say he was second choice #you MUST be fucking me over #sirius black #regulus black #the black brothers #the black family #harry potter #the marauders #wolfstar #jegulus #bartylus #i mean sure reg was second as heir but like... have u guys never been taught how 'heirs' work??? #i mean...surely u understand the concept #older siblings get chosen first #sad little baby didnt invited to the cult first :(((( #STFU.

jily & wolfstar having the same anniversary in atyd is something very special and silly to me

#atyd #wolfstar #jily #my sweets #all bc remus got a little tipsy and realized how much he loved his friends #suddenly everybody has to admit their feelings #they love him so bad

[pinklume]

Considering it was the 70s I’m surprised I’ve never read a fic where teachers or filch do physically discipline the students

#like they loved the cane back then #my dad and his friends used to see who could get the most canings in one day #which is something James and Sirius would def do #sirius black #remus lupin

Need a modern day au where Lily and Regulus fake date. It starts out after Lily panics and tells her friends that she's dating Regulus because it's the first name that pops in her head, but also she figures no one would be able to confirm it because none of her friends talk to him. One thing leads to another, and eventually Regulus hears about it, but instead of denying it, he goes along because he wants an opportunity to talk to Sirius. During their "dates" they bond over missing their siblings and become really good friends (lots of sibling ansgst because I'm a sucker for that shit). Padora is still Regulus best friend, but Lily is the first person Regulus goes to when he realizes he has a crush on James. Lily does the same for her feelings for Mary.

Lily introduces him to muggle literature and music, which Regulus becomes obsessed with to the point that when his studying, you will randomly hear him mumble the lyrics to his favorite song. (Even though indie is his favorite genre, his favorite album is Folklore because I said so. His favorite book is Little Women because his so Amy coded). On his birthday, Lily gifts him a beautiful telescope because even though there are magical ways to observe the stars, Regulus is obsessed with muggle objects. In return, Regulus buys her a fancy potions kit because that's her favorite subject and a gold necklace with a little lily charm that has an emerald stone.

p.s. fuck JK Rowling.

#give it to me pls #my obsession with regulus black is becoming a problem #anyway i need lily and Regulus to be friends because i just know they would bond over being the youngest sibling #also give me more regulus and sirius angst #regulus loves his brother but his also a stubborn constipated little dude who doesn't know how to tell him that he loves him #regulus black #sirius black #lilly evans #james potter #remus lupin #peter pettigrew #regulus x james #jegulus #woflstar #harry potter #sirius and regulus #regulus angst #starchaser #sunseeker #mary x lily

Give me physically disabled Sirius Black. Sirius Black with EDS, who uses joint supports and her rings are ring splints and they sometimes can't sleep at night because of pain and they wake up with dislocated joints and have to stop playing quidditch at 15 because his joints are just too bad by that point. Sirius Black with POTS who gets really scared when they have heart palpitations and never showers with the door locked and only ever when Remus is in the dorm just in case and they get dizzy when they stand up and sometimes she has to rely on her friends to catch him when they nearly fall. Sirius Black whose leg is paralysed after one of their mother's punishments in 5th year and they run away to James' and have to quit quidditch after that and use a walking stick. Sirius Black with gastroparesis who can only eat a minimal amount of food and is predominantly fed via feeding tube. Sirius Black with FND who has tics and seizures and occasional temporary paralysis and who teaches their friends how to care for her when he has a seizure or a tic attack. Sirius Black whose disability (s) make them feel closer to Remus, whose disability (s) help him to understand Remus better and vice versa, who make her a better boyfriend to Remus and vice versa. Sirius Black who, along with James Potter, hexes anyone who dares say anything ableist to or about them or their boyfriend. Sirius Black and Remus Lupin being Hogwarts' resident disabled power couple. Disabled Sirius Black.
