“What I understand is that you abandoned us. What I understand is that you abandoned me.” Sirius cut him off. Again, he talked without thinking. He was revealing too much, he knew that. It would not end well – his mother had taught him well the consequences. But he couldn’t stop. He couldn’t control himself when it came to Remus. "Fuck me –" Remus snapped as he stood up and grabbed his bag, ready to leave for class. "I can't talk to you when you're like this.” "Would you, though?" Sirius blurted out, the words escaping him as if they had a mind of their own, unable to bear the sight of Remus walking away from him once again. "What did you say?" Remus asked, his voice filled with shock and confusion as he turned away from the door to confront Sirius. With a flick of his wand, he cut short the music. His features appeared as if Sirius had just slapped him in the face, in total disbelief and incomprehension. Sirius let out a deep exhale and rose from his bed, where he had been huddled since the early hours of the morning, neglecting to attend class. He looked disheveled, his hair in disarray (yet still managing to look gorgeous as always), wearing only a white T-shirt and pyjama pants. Sirius stood his ground, meeting Remus's gaze as he repeated his words, "Would you, though? Fuck me?"

"So do it the wrong way," Remus said, reaching for Sirius's hand, "Love me when you're exhausted and when you're sad and you just want to crawl out in bed all day. Love me when you're hurt and when you need someone to heal your wounds. Love me when you don't know how to do it and when you need someone to tell you how to be strong and keep moving. Love me when you want to cry like a child and when you feel as though you might never be able to because of your mother. Love me the way you can Sirius. This is what I want from you."

The Invisible Life of Addie Larue - ve schwab

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This book is sitting on my shelf next to the picture of Dorian Gray and honestly as it should. While reading it I couldn’t think about anything else, it has trapped my soul in its words.

Is it weird to say that the devil’s voice is the most beautiful one I have ever heard even tho it’s just ink on paper?

Hi guys :) I’m a French English major and I’m looking for an English native speaker friend. I love books, coffee and old music. My favorites books are A Little Life and The Secret History. I’m obsessed with dark academia and gay wizards from the 70s. If you want I could teach you some French too. Just interact with this or send me a dm.

I hate Peter haters. Like what, this is young Peter in your opinion?: "I'm only twelve, the war isn't even a big and serious thing yet, I don't really know much about it, I'm still in school, but I'm an evil scumbag for something I haven't even done yet." Are you hearing yourselves?????

Its called a villain arc. The whole point of Peter being a traitor is the fact that he started good and then turned evil. That's how characters work. Peter got overlooked for too long and then turned bad.

He was a kid once too. And you saying that he was evil all his life for something he did in his twenties makes you an idiot. People aren't defined because of their future.

If someone is born in poverty and lives a childhood poor and homeless but then wins the lottery and buys a house and becomes rich, does that erase his bad past? No. And Peter's good past is not erased by his evil future.

There is a thing called a redemption arc in which a bad character turns good. It does not erase their bad past but they build a better future.

There is a thing called a villain arc in which a good character turns bad. It does not erase their good past but they create a bad future.

Learn.

Old Peter is a bitch. Old Peter is a bad person, worse than bad. He did wrong and continued to do it. He betrayed his friends and killed people. He is an evil character. I hate old Peter, everyone does.

Young Peter is a young boy who was changed for the worse by the world. He is good, he is kind, the kindest of the marauders you cannot deny, but he turns evil. He has so many good qualities. I like young Peter, and people who can read, do to.

Learn the difference.

The beginning of my villain era was when I successfully convinced my college friends to read All The Young Dudes with me.

How was your day they ask?

Well, I walked around in Remus Lupin clothes, listening to a Sirius Black playlist and talking all day pretending to have James potter’s confidence.
