#I’m obsessed with Sirius and James

When we were up to no good

…

'Well, then,' Potter said with a mischievous look: 'we ought to send this tonight.'

'You can't,' Remus said. 'It's past curfew.'

Potter and Black exchanged looks.

'You're right, of course,' Potter said.

'What were we thinking,' Black continued.

'We weren't thinking,' Potter corrected.

'No, but Lupin was,' Black agreed.

'Alright then, we better get ready for bed,' Potter said, grinning at Black.

'Nothing's like a good night of sleep,' Black nodded sincerely before he grinned back.

Remus had a sneaking suspicion he was missing something, and sure enough, a little while later, when they had all gone to bed, Remus could hear the dormitory door open and shut again. When he looked out from his curtain, he saw two empty beds, and Peter's face, scanning the room just like he did.

Peter groaned.

'Quite,' Remus agreed.

'Gits,' Peter muttered.

'Quite,' Remus agreed again.

An extract of chapter 1 from: when we were up to no good. The story is currently at 61K words and 26 chapters, updated about 2xweek.

My attempt at a truly canon-compliant marauder story with very limited fanon! No wolfstar. Marlene and Dorcas are not at Hogwarts at the same time as the Marauders. Alice is obviously some years older so she can have time to become a well-respected Auror and a mother. Sirius and James are practically inseparable because they were and I love them so much!!!!

*the marauders, watching pearl*

[the “PLEASE IM A STAR” scene]

pearl: IM A STAR PLEASE IM A STAR

sirius: bitch, i’m the star

remus: kill yourself

[after the “PLEASE IM A STAR” scene, when she’s crying]

peter: it’s really not that serious, come on now

sirius: yeah, i’m that sirius

remus: die

[the scene where she fucks a scarecrow]

james: the rizzler??? you go girl

remus: can you actually shut the fuck up

[superfallingstars]

saw this picrew going around and thought it was so cute so i made the marauders + snape + lily (lilies? couldn’t decide on an outfit)

[rookofthekingom]

I keep seeing ppl go “Bohemian Rhapsody was released the day that Lily and James died” and it’s just angering me to no end because NO

Bohemian Rhapsody was released on October 31, yes, but in 1975. 👏Six👏whole👏years👏before they died.

Like headcanon all you want, but make it at least somewhat factual. Say that Lily and James heard it in 5th year and it became “their song” or something, and that they were playing it on the day they died to celebrate its release. Or say that Remus and Sirius were listening to it together in celebration and Freddie sings “I don’t wanna die, I sometimes wish I’d never been born at all” when they get the call from Mary (or whoever told them) that James and Lily had died. Headcanons like that are fine. Stop saying things like “ahh imagine Sirius all excited that his favorite band is coming out with a new song but it’s ruined for him when he finds out Lily and James are dead” because no, the song was released six years prior. Also, Queen was just a tiny, unknown little band that produced weird progressive rock before Bohemian Rhapsody was released, okay? Sirius probably didn’t even know them, except maybe he knew Killer Queen (which did get pretty popular). Also, even if Bohemian Rhapsody had been released in 1981… Sirius still probably would’ve heard it before October 31st because it was played an absurd amount on the radio before it was actually released.

So basically.

Just stop telling people things you’re too lazy to fact check, okay? It’s kinda really pissing me off😭

hi my love i’m obsessed with all your works and this is my first request!

poly! marauders and cuteness aggression. like maybe reader coming home a bit tipsy from girls night and just seeing her boys and losing it. grabbing remus’ face and just kissing all over his cheeks, gnawing on james’ biceps and playing with sirius’ hair or tracing his tattoos.

Hi lovely, thank you for requesting!

poly!marauders x fem!reader ♡ 589 words

You leave a trail of things down the hallway that you swear you’ll pick up in the morning. Your bag, both shoes, your jacket. There’s no time to put any of it in its proper place, not when you know your boyfriends are all cozy and waiting for you in your bed. Everything else is secondary. 

The moment you get your eyes on them, it’s already too much. Remus is reading while Sirius chats to a nearly-asleep James, and you don’t know whether to scream or hug them or burst into tears. One feels more socially acceptable than the rest. 

A grin spreads over Sirius’ face as you crawl clumsily up the bed, so you go to him first. 

“Hi, baby.” You smear a kiss over his lips, burrowing your hands in his lovely, silken hair. It smells like his conditioner, smokey and heady and just slightly sweet. You wish you could snort it up into your nose like a drug. 

“Hi, baby,” Sirius says back at you, amused. “Did you have a good night?” 

“No,” you lament, though you think you might have enjoyed it at the time. 

Impulsively, you move to Remus, clambering across James to get on your quietest boyfriend’s lap. He’s already set down his book, so there are no barriers to your whims as you take his face between both hands, squishing his cheeks up and kissing them all over. You think you can hear the other boys laughing somewhere beyond your lovesick haze. Remus’ skin grows warmer with each ardent press of your lips. 

“None of you were there,” you go on. It’s impossible to articulate the full extent of this injustice. “You were here, being so lovely and perfect and lovely without me.” 

“That’s lovely twice.” Remus seems to recover somewhat from your surprise attack. His hand comes to rest in the middle of your back, a touch just for touch’s sake. “How much have you had, dove?” 

You make a petulant, whiny sound, burying your face in his neck. There will never be enough of them, your lovely boyfriends. Or maybe it’s that they’re enough, but you just can’t get enough. Regardless. You’re doomed to remain just on the brink of satisfaction. 

“Enough to know that I missed you a lot,” you say pitifully. 

“Awe, babydoll.” James’ laughter is at odds with his compassionate tone. “Come here, m’love.” 

This sounds like a grand idea to you. You wish they’d simply all squish together so you could lay your affections on them one by one, in rounds. 

James puckers his lips as you approach, readying for a kiss, and so is taken entirely aback when you forgo his face entirely. 

“Oh, well,” he says as you suck a hickey on his bicep. “I feel properly objectified.” 

You’re too pleased with yourself to be sorry. He flexes playfully, eliciting a string of giggles from you as you latch on tighter. 

“Do you think she’s been drugged?” you hear Remus ask. 

“Dunno.” James’ tone is fond. His big hand lands on the back of your head. 

“No, I sort of get it,” says Sirius. The mattress dips slightly, and then you feel him plant a wet kiss on your shoulder. “You just need to get it out of your system, yeah, sweetness?” 

You hum in affirmation. You wrap your arms around James’ middle, squeezing tight. 

“I love you so much,” you mumble into his skin. “I’m gonna kill you.” 

Your boyfriend’s frame rumbles with laughter. “Okay, lovie,” he says indulgently. “You go right ahead.”
