Prompt 16 - Godric's Hollow

@wolfstarmicrofic September 16, word count 455

Previous part First Wolfstar part

“What are you doing?” Remus asked him when they were getting ready to leave. The pack needed them, and they hadn’t exactly told anyone where they’d gone. James hadn’t tried to use the mirror, so obviously they weren’t worried. Sirius put the finishing touches to his prank and stood up. 

“A parting gift for Flitsy.” He told Remus as the bathtub began to fill with multicoloured bubbles. The tub soon overflowed and Sirius turned to Remus to flash him his best smile. “Better get out of here, those things are going to fill this room in a minute,” 

“Flitsy is going to kill you when she finds this,” Remus shook his head but followed Sirius out.

“Nah, she’s bored here all alone, this gives her something to do,” He’d get a whack from her spoon the next time he dared to show his face, but she wouldn't hit him that hard, after all, he and the little elf had a good relationship, and she had a wicked sense of humour. 

It hadn’t taken much to convince her to interrupt James and his brother at every turn. He chuckled under his breath when he remembered the look on Regulus’s face when Flitsy had left the bunny slippers in the library for him. It made him think of the time they’d gone to the house in Godric’s Hollow for the Christmas market and Monty had charmed the nifffler slippers he’d presented to the pair just before they were meant to leave and convinced them to try them on. They’d had to follow Effie around the stalls and stand in the crowd while they waited for the hundreds of candles to be lit in the humongous tree, unable to remove the slippers from their feet. Monty hadn’t removed the charm until three days later, when the smell had got too bad and Effie had banished them to the garden. 

They arrived back at the camp and went in search of the others. 

“Have a nice nap did you?” Marcus asked, snickering when they approached. “Ouch!” He yelped. Sirius looked around, trying to figure out the source of Marcus’s sudden outburst. 

“I do not want to hear about why my brother and his boyfriend have been getting up to since we parted,” Regulus drawled as he put his wand away. Marcus grumped as he rubbed the sore spot on his arm. Sirius walked past him and looked in the cauldron.  

“So what’s for dinner? I’m starving, Remus has taken it out of me. You wouldn't believe how much stamina he has,” Sirius barked out a laugh as he dodged his brother’s flurry of hexes. They could plan later. For the rest of today, they’d have a bit of fun.

Just got this comment under a post

Fandoms are fan made, meaning you’re going to see a whole lot of headcanons, which is what the marauders era primarily is, anyway because we don’t have a lot to go on

That being said, if you don’t like something, then don’t leave disrespectful comments or reblogs

If it’s not for you, don’t interact with it!

Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but that does not mean we should go around bashing people for not having the same opinion

I don’t really ship pandalily, but I don’t go around yelling at people and telling them to k!ll themselves for that ship

Anyway, sorry for the rant, I’m just tired of seeing this stuff

Baby Harry his Padfoot - 🐾

Harry hated peas.

He gave his mom a pointed look every time she placed a bowl of peas in front of him.

Padfoot hated peas.

He believed peas should be banished from the earth.

Lily didn't particularly like peas.

But seeing her adorable son give her that frown whenever she gave him peas made her laugh. She was pleased with how quickly he ate them. 

James loved peas.

He thought it was hilarious that his best friend, who despised peas more than anyone else and refused to eat them in Hogwarts, claiming there was no one on earth that could make him eat peas. He tried not to laugh as his son scrunched up his eyebrows and frowned at his godfather across the table, almost as if the two were having a silent debate while frowning at each other. Then, in a matter of seconds, his best friend would sigh in defeat as he transformed into Padfoot, and his wife would give him a smile, thinking he was encouraging their son to eat his peas. Harry's little frown turned into a smile as he pretended to put a fist full of peas into his mouth while Lily was looking, but as soon as she turned back to her dinner, he threw them on the ground as Padfoot quickly ate them with a pained expression on his furry face.

This was why James loved peas.

Merry Christmas!

I don't actually know what I'm doing, but as a Christmas present to anybody who wants it, here's some Christmas fluff. Very PG.

It's almost midnight.... two minutes and forty seconds 'til, actually, if you happened to be at the Potter's House and happen upon one James Potter, who was holding a comically large pocket watch about two inches from his nose. Regulus was going cross-eyed just looking at him try to stare down that silly ticking piece of brass (why would you use that when you could just look at the planets? Fucking stupid.) Although. To be fair. The hair sticking in every direction wasn't helping matters.

"It doesn't count, you know," whispered Regulus into the lowlight. James looked up, moving his head in that clumsy, half-asleep way.

"Mmmm?"

"You were sleeping on my lap for two hours, Jamie. You didn't stay up till midnight."

"Reg!" James put on his classic affronted face, but he was so dazed that he just looked sort of confused. "I'm offended!"

"Go go to bed, Prongs!" shouted Sirius across the room, not looking up from the man sleeping in his lap, sprawled out across the couch in a mess of gangly legs and curly hair.

"No!" James sounded like a child; he even jutted his lip out. "I'm staying awake!"

"You've just been halfway around the world, Jam," began Lily, looking up from the game of cards she was playing with Mary , Peter, and Pandora on the big armchair by the window. "Your brain literally thinks it's four in the morning right now. There's no shame in it."

"Two minutes!" croaked James. Then he yawned, mouth open so wide that Regulus felt Barty's attention turn to his teeth.

"No." Got to nip that in the bud.

"Aw, Reggie. They're just so beautiful!" Barty's head lolled over the side of the couch, where his partner Evan was lying spooned by his side reading a ridiculously heavy book.

"James wants his teeth to stay in his mouth. Don't you, Jamie?"

"Uh-huh." James eyes seemed to be drooping. "I like my teeth."

"Bet Reg likes his teeth, too," snickered Sirius. On his lap, Remus stirred and muttered something that sounded like stop making sex jokes about your brother and James. Which was useless, anyway.

"One minute now," hissed Marlene, swooping across the room and drooping herself over James' shoulder. Her Queen t-shirt was covered in lipstick kisses. "Should we do a countdown?"

"Come back here," came the response from a disgruntled Dorcas sitting on yet another armchair. The low lamplight shone bright shadows on her face. "I'm cold."

"Don't leave her now, Marls. Not after all this," laughed Lily, tossing one red ponytail over her shoulder.

"Same goes for you." Mary poked her best friend in the side. Lily did another one of her signature laughs, and grabbed Mary's hand in hers. She smiled. Regulus only knew one person who could light up a room with just a grin-- his Jamie, of course-- but Lily was pretty close. At least lit up the corner.

"Fifteen, fourteen," came the muffled countdown from Remus. "You have to kiss me when it's Christmas, Pads."

"Kiss you? Scandal," came Sirius' reply, a grin spreading uncontrollably across his face. "I'll get ready."

"Thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine," counted Barty, much faster than nessecary. Slow down, came Evan's squashed response.

"Eight, seven, six," counted Marlene and Dorcas in unison, Dorcas's head on top of Marlene's, fingers wrapped together like a braid.

"Five, four, three, two," chirped Pandora and Peter, dropping their cards, faces alight with excitement.

"One," whispered Regulus. He couldn't help but smile. Then--

"James? James?"

James had passed out cold. Regulus laughed and pressed a kiss to his forehead-- he could hear about the Christmas kiss in the morning.

Yeah so I actually have never written pure fluff before but here it is, hope you enjoyed! 🎄 Merry Christmas Tumblr, thanks for a great year and here's to many more!

❤️Jane

I LOVE FICTIONAL CHARACTERS SO MUCHHHH 🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶

[izzythehutt]

It's ironic that you say you dislike the "Villian is tragically misunderstood" trope.. because one could say that's literally the entire Black family and your fic of them

No, what I'm doing is what we would call 'alternate character interpretation.' There's nothing I wrote in BM as far as their characterization goes that couldn't technically be consistent with what we get in canon. In fact, that's one of the main reasons why in every chapter of my story I include an actual quote from the actual books—the source material. I have tried to build the universe of my story around a plausible interpretation and expansion of the books themselves. I am not really influenced by fanon because I quite frankly haven't read HP fanfic (with a few exceptions) in over a decade. The heydey of when I was reading it was when the books were actually coming out. What I see now I don't like because it doesn't seem to have much of a relationship with the books I grew up with and enjoyed.

Now, that being said, do I think my 'more sympathetic' take on Sirius's parents is exactly what JKR intended to imply with the snippets we get of Sirius's family in the context of the books? I doubt it. But I will maintain that I've done justice to her world, that my version doesn't contradict canon. I also find it a hell of a lot more interesting than most of the abuse porn floating around the fandom, but that's a subjective thing, ultimately.

I hold death’s hand in mine

or that one “theory” that Rio is Death

[enbysiriusblack]

Narcissa sat across the table, Sirius grinned at her from the other side, his fork absentmindedly twirling and scraping at his plate.

"Can you stop that?" Narcissa gritted her teeth as a loud scrape sounded from the silver pressing against the china.

Sirius tilted his head, grin still on place.

"Your mother tells me you're interested in herbology at the moment?" Walburga hums, eyes focused on Narcissa.

Narcissa nods, "Oh yes. Well the malfoy estate has such large gardens, as you of course know, and so I hope to augment my skills in order to take full control of the garden when I have married Lucius. It will be our guest's first impression of us and our house, so arguably the most important part of the manor."

"Do you grow weed?" Sirius asked.

"Of course not!" Walburga hissed, before turning back to Narcissa, "You are a delightfully wise girl."

"Frank Longbottom is into herbology too."

Walburga glanced to him, "Well, we don't associate with that family, Sirius."

Sirius gasped, staring at Narcissa, "Do we not, Cissy?"

Narcissa smiled politey, "Of course not."

"Well, do we associate with his girlfriend then, Alice?"

Narcissa narrowed her eyes just slightly, "No, we do not."

Walburga glanced between Narcissa and Sirius, "Who is Alice?"

Sirius turned to his mother, "Fortescue. She's a gryffindor in Narcissa's year."

Orion coughed, "Have you had your exam results back, Narcissa?"

"Not yet, but I have high hopes. My mock results predicted all 'O's."

Orion smiled, "Good. I'm sure your parents will be proud."

Sirius leaned back in his chair with a sigh and muttered, "Probably wouldn't be proud with you spending your time behind the greenhouses with certain gryffindor's."

Narcissa folded her arms neatly, "Is that something you do, Sirius?"

Walburga huffed, "If only he could be more like you, my dear."

Orion nodded, "We see much too much of your elder sisters in him, I'm afraid. Regulus, on the other hand-"

Sirius scoffed, glancing to Regulus who had gone non-verbal again, luckily their parent’s hadn't quite realised yet.

Orion glared at Sirius, "Don't interrupt me", he turned back to Narcissa and shook his head, "Always so rebellious at the moment."

Narcissa smiled back, "Oh, Bella was the same, always so hotheaded and impulsive. But she knows to put family above all else, and I'm certain Sirius will grow up and do the same."

Sirius turned to her, noticing her small gesture to Regulus sat by her side- still remaining silent and moving his food into categories instead of eating it.

Sirius immediately stood up, "James is my family."

Regulus glanced to him- anger evident in his face.

Walburga stood up too, "The Potter's are not welcome here- even in name. Blood traitors, the lot of them."

Sirius grabbed his cup and threw it across the room, "I hate you! I hate this house! I hate this family!"

Orion wiped the corners of his mouth with his napkin before turning to Regulus and Narcissa, "Regulus, would you please show your cousin to her room? I think we shall be retiring for the evening."

Narcissa stood up instantly, guiding Regulus with her and out the room.

"Worthless! Thankless! Scum of my blood!" Walburga had started to scream at Sirius as the door shut behind them.

Narcissa never liked Sirius. He was always so loud, defiant, stubborn. But as she glanced over to her small cousin- Regulus, she couldn't help but admire Sirius protecting his brother from trouble at his own expense. He was loyal to his family- just not in the way they wanted.

I don't know about anyone else. But I think we need more mommy/daddy issues in this fandom.

Give Lily Evans mommy issues this instant!

Prompt 24 - Transform

@jegulus-microfic October 24, Word count 196

Regulus flicked his wand and watched the rat transform into a water goblet. He flicked his wand and watched it turn back. The rat tried to scurry away, but he stopped it by transfiguring it into the water goblet again. 

“Regulus stop!” James cried as he came into the empty classroom where they were meeting. James hurried forward and scooped up the rat as it transformed back from being the water goblet and carefully placed him on the floor. Regulus watched as the rat scurried away out the door squeaking indignantly at him. 

“What was that about?” Regulus asked, confused by James’s actions. Turning rats into water goblets was part of the curriculum. 

“That was Peter,” James said, shrugging. Regulus’s eyes rolled to the back of his head. Of course, the random rat he found just had to be one of his brother’s friends in animagus form. 

“Alright, fine, you transform. I want to practice stag into hat stand.” James gulped and ran out of the room. “Coward,” Regulus called after him, chuckling to himself as he wondered what it would take to convince his brother to let him transfigure his dog form into a footstool.

[padfootastic]

i was gonna upload the next part of my jilypad fic (sits at a whopping 7k words!!!) bc today was an insanely good writing day but it needs to be edited and my eyes are drooping shut. so, tomorrow night it is, sadly.

fingers crossed.

[messrsrarchives]

The first person serious went to look for in the after life was James, but the second was regulus… only to discover that regulus was trapped in the cave.

james first :(((

also related but kinda not !! do we think regulus is an infernus??

because it takes a complex curse to actually reanimate the dead bodies, and voldy had killed them for this purpose and then done said curse. i've never found anything about whether they can pass it along, just that they can kill.

so yk, flexible !! i fw the idea of him being stuck as an infernus but the less angsty of yall? he can so be in the afterlife with them 🫡🫡

[backtowolfstar]

trying to figure out how to end All Along There Was Some Invisible String (don't worry no character deaths this time around) anybody have any ideas for me??
