#i wanted to use their maiden names bc i used lily's too

random chiquititas headcanons

disclaimer: i haven’t seriously engaged in marauders content in like a year so these aren’t grounded in canon (i think), they’re just vibes

mary is a lesbian who dealt with comp het for most of her hogwarts years (i have SOOOO many thoughts)

butch marlene. butch marlene. butch marlene. (mostly uses she/her pronouns, but post-hogwarts i can see marlene using he/him more often)

femme x butch dorlene realness

3/5 of the girls are lesbians bc lesbians rock

lily is bisexual while pandora wouldn’t label herself but she’s a girlkisser too

lily is the OG ABBA fangirl that converted the rest of the girls, including dorcas (although i think dorcas wouldn’t ever admit she likes abba out loud but she’s singing along during drunk karaoke

speaking of ABBA, petunia is the one who actually got lily into their music. so lily’s feelings towards them becomes complicated, to say the least

mary is a second gen haitian immigrant bc i’m a second gen haitian immigrant. and because i can’t speak creole neither can she

mary has a little brother (4 years younger than her). he’s a muggle and never felt resentment towards magic until mary was attacked during year 7

lilys temper and self righteousness is a blessing and a curse

dorcas is a certified daddy’s girl

marlene really struggled with making friends with her dormmates during year 1 because she “didn’t know how to be friends with girls” (being raised with tons of brothers, james, + peter had little marlene believe girls were too complicated aka not as cool as boys)

speaking of girlhood, mary was marlene’s girlhood guru, which also led to mary being marlene’s first crush

don’t get me started about marlene’s battle with femininity after she realized she was butch

dorcas is tender headed so she braids her own hair. her go to style is micro braids (think moesha)

mary’s go to is her fro or a headscarf. but once her and dorcas become friends, she lets dorcas experiment with different styles on her. (it soothes mary’s homesickness)

year 1-4 mary had VERY complicated feelings about lily, like i don’t think they really became friends until year 5 (after lily fully cuts off snape)

lily, on the other hand, always thought mary was the coolest girl in school and didn’t get why she would be so cold to her one moment and a sweetheart the next

mary and dorcas secretly bonded over being craft girlies (mary makes her own clothes and dorcas makes her own jewelry)

pandora is not a rosier. lovegood is actually her maiden name (xeno is down BAD for her, he’d 100% take her last name)

pandora is actually super intimidating, when she wants to be

mary began crushing on marlene right when marlene got over her crush on mary

lily and dorcas are academic rivals but on the low

lily loves sour candy, specially anything and everything lemon flavored

dorcas is a big jazz/blues fan bc of her dad

dorcas and pandora are besties who bond over their dark humor, passion for spell crafting, and a few blunts

mary is an edible girlie

marlene prefers cigs but will take a few hits depending on her mood

weed makes lily paranoid so she sticks with liquor (which she can drink like a fucking sailor)

contrary to popular opinion, marylily aren’t friends to lovers. they are strangers to begrudging acquaintances to enemies to friends to lovers to exes (i have TOO MANY thoughts about their dynamic lmao)

mary is super friendly but doesn’t actually care about having many friends

pandora is an amazing figure skater

pandora is a polyglot (she would have studied linguistics, if this was a muggle au)

marlene is a certified enabler

in terms of how the girls became a group, originally it was just mary and marlene as a duo. year 1-4, lily was somewhat of a causal friend because she was still tight with snape. (but each year she got closer to both girls). by end of year 4, the duo has organically grown to a trio. off to the side, dorcas and pandora became instant besties in year 3 (i like to think that pandora was a transfer student so they didn’t meet until year 2). marlene and dorcas start dating beginning of year 6, which brings everyone together (until the war tears them apart)

(not to dip into my war/post-war HCs but MARY DID NOT OBLIVATE HERSELF
