So I hope you don’t mind but I just needed to get this off my chest and wanted to share with somebody would I know would understand. I was reading a fanfic that was supposed to be Prongsfoot (or so the tags would have you believe) and it was loads of Jily until Lily cheated on James with SIRIUS! Repeatedly! This made me so irrationally upset. Sirius would never betray James that way! Ever! Sirius is heavily defined by his loyalty and his love for James. It felt like such a betrayal to his character I was aghast. I don’t get how people could ever see either of our boys hurting each other like that. 
oh god no, i would never mind. feel free to rant away in my inbox anytime. and if it’s about something very specific or u wanna take names, then u can always hit up the dms.
and man, i get where that’s coming from. obligatory disclaimer that i’ll never police what others write in their own space but i also reserve the right to bitch about it in my own. that’s very, very not j&s tbh. like,,,i can’t see either of them doing anything that would knowingly cause harm to the other. i read this lily/sirius fic once where he gets with her despite knowing how much james liked her and that it would really hurt him and it made things super awkward b/w j&s for a while and god,,,,the way it hurt my heart lol
i think what i’d be more mad about re that fic was (from what i’m getting here) how misleading the prongsfoot tag was. like man, if i went into it expecting james & sirius to get together and i came across this??? i’d be fuming mad. i saw something once tagged prongsfoot that was basically just jily and wolfstar and j&s fooling around w each other (and lowkey hurting their friendship) and the urge i felt to send a strongly worded ask was so strong i had to literally close the app and walk away lmao
i ranted about it for a long time after tho 💀💀 so yeah, all that to say i totally get where ur coming from, anon!! i would recommend reading tons of ur fav j/s fics whenever something like this happens to get rid of the icky feeling, works like a charm everytime.
may i humbly suggest dani’s wonderful, amazing, a+ getting together prongsfoot fic that she low-key wrote for me that i’m actually so fkn emotional over bc it’s the best gift ever
#i’m always so conflicted about asks like this and responses like mine#bc i never wanna bash someone in particular but also i just have so many Thoughts at all times#and i also remember feeling like i was the only one who thought this and having a v isolating fandom experience#so i appreciate these asks as well#if that makes sense?#but yeah. hard agree w u anon#some fics are just—not our cup of tea#i’ve read some fics w some very very out of left field characterisation for my boys#it’s why i write the way i do lol it’s me attempting to change things in whatever capacity i can 💀#but i wish a lot of great j/ fics for u anon!!#i would recommend checking out the day 7 posts of PFweek too#lots and lots of great stuff there#pen’s asks
