#at least there's wolfstar

[imsiriuslyreading]

Hey Lana, ty for sharing that post and being so open.

Fandom really is a beautiful place and I had a dear friend from it talk me down from a lot of things as well. And I'm really glad that you have this community and that your beautiful soul is still with us.

Sending you hugs and thoughts and I hope that you can keep holding on to the wonderful things that life and friendships offer and keep fighting the dark bc I know that's not easy and you are so strong.

I don't know if any of this helps or why exactly I'm writing this, but again, ty for vulnerability and wishing you the best.

hello you lovely, lovely thing

i'm going to be honest, i made that post the other day and then hid like a little chicken because, as much as I'll come on here or tiktok or wherever and scream about fanfiction and remus lupin, or my husband aaron taylor johnson, I don't tend to share a great deal of personal stuff. and that one had to be the most personal ever, even if it was just a few sentences.

a lot of the messages i received afterwards were sent to my little ask box, and rather than sharing them all (because some of them were very personal to the writers) I just want to say this.

I am so grateful for this fandom. there are times when its felt like the scariest place in the world, or the meanest. but 99% of the time, the people here are so kind I can barely believe it. i think there are probably no words to adequately express my gratitude, or how incredible I think it is that even spanning all the ages, backgrounds and interests that live in this space, it still manages to feel like such a community. we all have our own pockets of people and smaller spaces we run around in (if you haven't found yours yet, keep looking I promise they're there and waiting for you), and there have been countless ways and occasions that we have looked out for one another, supported each other and kept each other going.

i made that post and had an influx of messages from fandom friends and acquaintances offering to help in whatever way they could, or just to offer some love and support - which was never my intention to receive at all - but what stood out the most was how many of us are using this place as a way to stay grounded, to stay creative, and frankly, to stay safe. in whatever way that means to you. which I think is another reason we have to do whatever we can to protect it.

things feel a little more stable for me. I've been writing a lot, reading a lot, and trying to be more open about the things I'm struggling with. I'm still grappling with logistical life-nightmares and fighting my way through what feels a lot like the impossible. but I do not feel alone, and I have the people here to thank for that.

so. thank you for your beautiful and honest message. i am so immeasurably glad that you're here, and that you're carrying on and passing your own wisdom on. i hope this next year treats you so kindly, and I'm sending you all the love <3

Remus: Keep an eye on James today. He's going to say something stupid to Regulus and get punched.

Sirius: Sure, I'd love to see James get punched.

Remus: Try again.

Sirius: I... will stop James from getting punched.

Remus: There you go.

christmas season at the wolfstar flat

Sorry, but Sirius would not be the rebel you think he is. Like sure he doesn't feed into all that blood purity shit but that boy was spoiled rotten. He grew up eating with silver enchanted utensils, wearing the finest clothing, eating the most precious foods and learning the most pretentious habits from the most pretentious people...he was posh, and so was James and so was Peter. It takes years to unlearn all that, to recognize not everyone had it as good as him (disregarding the neglectful treatment from his parents).

However, I will agree, his character development after meeting Remus is substantially impacted. Since a boy with absolutely nothing becomes Sirius' everything.

Sirius: Hey Prongs, I hope our children will get along just like cousins, you know not like me and my cousins but like other cousins that get along so well, I always see cousins having a really good bond

James: Yeah I hope so too

*5 years later*

James: Hey Pads, you know when you told me about that cousin thing with our children *sweating nervously*

Sirius: Yeah what’s up with that?

James: I took your words too serious

Sirius: What do you mean?

James:

Sirius: James what do you mea- oh no no no no. Please don’t tell me that-

James: Surprise?

Sirius: JAMES FLEAMONT POTTER, YOU’RE DEAD YOU LITTLE BROTHERFUCKER

[that-bitch-kat3]

sirius: i cant shag remus! itd be like shagging james!

marlene: so saying that you cant shag remus because it’d be like shaggings someone else in your incestuous polycule of a friend group doesn’t actually help your case

I feel like there's a lot of comedic potential with the Marauders' animagus forms, like, imagine Sirius getting a text at 4am and it's just this

[a-great-tragedy]

Remus and barty both have the handwriting of a 3 year old and it’s so bad to the point where they are the only ones who can read each other’s handwriting

Sirius: *shows note to Remus* I think Barty is threatening me! He sent me this paper with a bunch of scratch marks on it

Remus: hm, let me see *Grabs note* Nah, he just said he’s smarter than you.

Sirius: The bastard can’t even write though?!

People who twinkify Regulus/Sirius and make James/Remus (respectively) big and strong haven't unpacked heteronormativity and still believe - maybe even subconsciously - that every relationship has a 'man' and a woman.' In this essay I will-

[cinnamontoastcrunch-15]

Today's @wolfstarmicrofic prompt is frostbite!

Remus is just trying to write his potions essay. The others had decided to spend the freezing weekend outside, for some strange, demented reason. Remus isn't quite insane enough to wreck his joints in the cold, so he spends a day in beautifully relaxing silence.

That is, until the door opens.

Remus glances up to see Sirius step through. He's moving surprisingly slowly, upright and walking stiffly. For a second, Remus surveys him, eyebrows raising.

He's absolutely drenched from head to toe, hair stuck to his face. He closes the door, shivering so violently that he's practically vibrating.

"Sirius? What-?"

"Well, er..." Sirius starts. "T-turns out i-it's not quite co-cold enough to walk on the b-black lake yet."

Of course.

With an affectionate, albeit slightly concerned, glance, Remus stands and starts rooting through Sirius' chest.

"W-what are you...?" Remus groans, frustrated. Everything Sirius owns is built for warm weather. He's quite literally not equipped for winter, somehow. He gives up quickly, opting for his own chest.

He grabs a jumper and joggers, before wordlessly going back over to Sirius. He waves his wand once over Sirius, muttering a spell.

It doesn't quite dry him off, but it's not too bad. Better than it was, anyway. Then, he hands over the clothes.

"Get changed."

He turns and starts searching again. He feels like he should be frustrated, he was almost done with his essay, but honestly? Something about spending the entire day staring at his parchment has made it impossible to be even slightly frustrated with Sirius.

He finds a blanket and, the moment Sirius has gotten changed, Remus grabs his wrist and pulls him onto Remus' bed. He drapes the blanket over Sirius' shoulders, pulling it tight.

"I might just lock you in the dorm for the foreseeable," Remus says with an eye roll. It isn't quite enough to disguise the amused smile creeping onto his face.

"Nah, nonsense!" Sirius says, waving his hand. He seems to have warmed up slightly, but Remus doesn't miss the fact that his hands are so red that they're a few minutes away from turning blue. "The lake has to freeze over eventually!"

Remus shakes his head, reaching out and grabbing both of Sirius' hands. He clasps them both in his, trying to warm them up.

"You're insane. You're not doing that again! You could've gotten frostbite!"

"Ah, but I didn't," he says with a wink.

"You're such an idiot," Remus says affectionately, leaning in and connecting their lips.

Big mistake.

"Fucking hell, even your lips are cold!" He barely pulls away, giving Sirius a chance to pull him right back in.

Oh well, the cold is a small price to pay.

Been trying to simplify my artstyle for pieces like this so it dosnt take 20+ hours, I think I've done it so I can keep the details but not the time!! I hate how sirius came out but remus.. I want to eat him.

He's been studying too hard :(

[b0wi3sgir1]

Remus: where’s Regulus and Sirius?

James: oh Sirius is teaching Reggie to drive. Some good brotherly bonding :D

Remus:

Remus: Sirius never learned how to drive!?!

Meanwhile:

Sirius: so, there’s two pedals, sometimes three but you can ignore the left one.

Regulus: I don’t think-

Sirius: the lines on the road are more suggestions than anything, like the speed limit.

Regulus: are you sure that-

Sirius: I’m not sure how to turn on the blinkers. Ready?

Regulus: no wait I-

Sirius *shouting*: GO GO GO

Regulus, *screaming*: *floors it*

[labyrinthhofmymind]

ok i love wolfstar so much but like realistically james, lily, and sirius were all fucking each other in canon let’s be real

[roselookingatthemoon]

Trans!Regulus Au in which Sirius often sneaked out with Regulus to show him the stars (pre Regulus coming out).

On one of those nights, Sirius and R* are lying on their backs and look up at the sky filled with stars as they always do. Sirius laughs as he just found the Lupin constellation for the first time. "It's moony!" He says and grins to himself. R* has long forgotten the stars in favour of watching at his brother. Sirius started to grow out his hair. Soon it will reach shoulder length, just as R*'s hair. He doesn't understand, if R* could, he would cut his hair off without a second thought. He looks back up, his mouth opening and closing again and again, as he contemplates how to phrase his next words. How could he describe this lingering feeling deep inside of his chest, to his big brother?

"I think..." It came out broken, but it caught the attention of Sirius, as R* could see his brother's head turn in the corner of his eyes. His own eyes are focused on the stars in the sky. "I'm a boy." it bursts out of him. A secret he had carried in his shoulders for over a year now. He immediately bites down on his lip, afraid to say anything else.

Sirius is silent. R* doesn't dare to shift his eyes from the stars to glance at his brother. This isn't how people describe it. There's no invisible load taken off his shoulders. If anything, there seems to be more pressing down on him, hindering him to breath. R* can feel himself spiral. If not even Sirius excepts him, who will?

"I never told you this, but..." Sirius starts. His voice is calm, his eyes fixed on the night sky again. R* glances over at his brother. A small smile was playing on the older boy's lips. "I always loved Regulus way more than the star our parents named you after. It's the heart of the lion, just like Sirius is the heart of the dog. The lion may not be as cool and awesome as the dog-" Sirius laughs at this part, but instantly turns serious again "-but he is a very, very brave animal. Just like you, brother." Sirius turns his head again to catch R*'s eyes.

This time R* answers the stare as a grin, that mirrors the one on Sirius' face, tucks at his lips. "Regulus." He tests out the sound. The way the letters roll from his tongue. "Yeah, I like that." Regulus looks back up to the stars and when he finds the lion constellation, he feels like the Regulus star ist burning brighter than normally.

And that's how the one person who always was just like a parent to him (way more than his biological ones), gave Regulus his name.
