The more I write The Black Snake the more I realize I quite like foreshadowing things… like subtle little hints or references that many may never even notice. Although I definitely would mention it after the reveal. Like hey remember when I did this totally random, unassuming thing? Yeah, connect those dots my dear readers.

summary & link under the cut!

In the wake of a sudden deadly zombie virus spreading across the U.K., Sirius Black, a first-year microbiology student, is thrown into survival mode when the catastrophic outbreak hits. James’ girlfriend Lily, now pregnant, depends on her boyfriend to lead their desperate escape. The trio sets out to find an evacuation point mentioned in a final radio broadcast before it cuts off.

They cross paths with Marlene, a star athlete armed with a baseball bat; Mary, a sorority socialite; and Remus, who perhaps might be ill. As they join forces, Sirius finds himself inexplicably attracted to Remus, though--in an apocalypse--romance could very well be a dangerous distraction.

After rescuing a group of teenagers, Marlene also happens to develop feelings for one named Dorcas, though the younger girl hardly looks her way. And Pandora, another teen, might just be the answer to the world's current problem.

Battling zombies, befittingly dubbed “Hollow’s”. They form alliances and endure heart-wrenching losses. They share laughter around campfires and reminisce about better times. But above all else, they have one goal; survive.

Hello Marauders Fans!!

I'm super hyped to finally share the first chapter of my zombie apocalypse AU fanfic! It's been in the works for months and I hope y'all enjoy it!

[the1970sdeadgaywizard-regulus]

I started writing (again. I have so many WIP’s but @professor-scribbls’ writing/zombie au has encouraged me to write.)

I have no clue if this is going to end up in my WIP graveyard (not exactly a graveyard. I touch it occasionally when I get motivated).

Anyways, it’s a muggle/apocalyptic AU where James Potter's family has a camp, rivaling Regulus Black's family's camp. Regulus ends up leaving his family when Sirius comes back (whenever that may be). Sirius then brings him to the camp of the Potter's. This leads to a lot of banter between James and Regulus (eventually leading to them falling in love… maybe… we’ll see) It's sort of enemies to friends to lovers, I guess

Here is about as far as I’ve gotten in my writing (in about 2 hours)

It’s currently called Wasteland, Baby until I can think of a better name

His family moved from France when he was only 6. For whatever reason it was, they decided that they would much rather live in the UK. His family bought a home in the rather wealthy outskirts of the city. Then they bought a summer house in the middle of a forest.

When he turned 7, his family took a family trip to the summer house. Looming walls surrounded the property, an intricately designed metal gate being the only way in or out. But once they entered, the plot of land the home was on was gorgeous. A small lake was located in the middle of the property, perfect for fishing. The summer home was large, allowing him and his brother to run around it for ages.

When he had only just turned 9, his family had to flee to their summer home in the middle of the forest. It was a good thing that his family was over prepared. The world they once knew had been turned upside down, and his family’s summer home turned out to be their safe house. When he was younger, he had never questioned the walls that surrounded it, but as soon as news of zombies roaming cities reached his family, he knew that his family was just planning on something terrible happening.

At 10, what was supposed to be a small family safe house had turned into a full blown camp. His family had realised just how beneficial for them it would be if they took in survivors. So they did.

By 11, the camp had turned into a settlement. So many people had fled from their original encampments to better off camps. One of those had been his family’s camp.

At 14, he watched his brother go off for his first supply run. His brother came back covered in blackened ooze. He could see some look in his brother’s eyes. He couldn’t place it then.

At 15, he was able to place what that look in his brother’s eyes was. It was determination. He watched his brother leave for a supply run, never return to return. His group came back saying that his brother had run.

At 16, his mother and father realised that they’d need another of their own blood to do supply runs to make the rest of the settlement know that they aren’t greedy. That they are willing to help. So they chose him. He was forced to train.

Alright here we go. You asked for the infodump and no here we are XD

SO I had a few thoughts and I sent them to @yesiamprocrastinating (and honestly might want to read those before this one cos it kinda give basis for the world a bit?) BUT I have had more so here we go :D

So if you didn't read the other post, the idea is that the apocalypse is actually a simulation created by Tom Riddle for evil purposes and some characters were going to be part of the apocalypse some weren't. I was gonna have remus be one of them and have James, Regulus, and Sirius be in the sim already.

HOWEVER!

Now I'm leaning more toward James being outside the simulation and Remus being in. I'm gonna be nice and do pre-established wolfstar in this I think (but they're gonna have angst too dw).

And basically what the deal is, is that Dumbledore sent James and the rest of his group into the apocalypse sim to stop it from the inside and also apprehend Regulus cos apparently he's the one who created it??? (he did but it's more complicated than that and that lore isn't fleshed out yet)

And that's where the Jegulus angst comes in and i WISH I could explain exactly why, but that's BIG spoilers and as of right now I reeeeeally really plan on writing it so I don't want to reveal that yet :3

I'm sorry this is a lot less than I had originally planned on sharing but I just realised how spoilery all my other ideas would be DX But they're there and they're SO good DX

I will say, I had the idea to do the 'Turning Into A Zombie' thing in this universe be more of a slow infection process that takes a few weeks, rather than all at once. And THAT is going to be plot relevant when certain parts come out in the story >:D

Also Barty will definitely get to hotwire a car and bowl over a bunch zombies at some point because he deserves it :)

Okay this is so interesting so thanks for sharing it with me :)

This honestly kind of reminds me of a video game I played. In it there were people sent into a simulation as a form of rehab, but the sim was taken over. There were certain people in the sim that had the task to save the others, but they also couldn't reveal themselves or they'd be considered traitors and ostracized from the group

So that's what it makes me think of, because we have Remus, Regulus, Sirius and some other people being stuck in the sim, while James and co are trying to stop it from the inside. I guess that makes me ask, does James reveal that it's a sim, or does he hide it so Riddle doesn't target him or something? Because if he does, that could factor into the Jegulus angst lol (James technically lying to Regulus and all that)

Regulus being the creator of the sim makes me really intrigued though. Did Riddle take it over and twist it to his liking? That's what it makes me think of but idk if that's what you planned lol

Also turning the zombie apocalypse into a slow infection is a good idea. Even if it's a sim, it could still kind of show the collapse of society bit by bit, and I'm a sucker for things like that

Of course, it's definitely a necessity for Barty to run over a bunch of zombies LMAO

And I totally understand you not spoiling a bunch of it but it's also like.... I NEED TO KNOW. I just have so many questions

Also sorry if this is messy I kind of got carried away 😭

What do we think of Marauders x Zombie Apocalypse? ☣️

oooooo i actually really like this idea. i dont tend to read apocolypse aus but i like zombie apocolypse games (dead island, the walking dead etc) and do intend one day to read a zombie apocolypse marauders au

ive seen some really cool apocolypse au art going around recently too, so thats awesome to see :)

the angst potential is absolutely massive so im not surprised that its been matched w the marauders fandom ahahaha. do you have any recs?

~Prologue for Justice For The Cure is published to ao3~

[professor-scribbls]

It’s Remus! I think we all knew it would only be a certain amount of time before I added Remus’ design to this AU since he has already been introduced in the fic lol, I did hide some little secrets in the drawing for the ppl who feel like theorising to theorise of lol. Stay tuned for chapter 3 being posted soon!!!

Just a short little thing I was feeling...

In which the zombie apocalypse is consuming the world and Sirius and Remus get separated in a food run.

The cut running along the side of Remus’ forehead throbbed with the sweat and blood quickly drying in the hot, noon sun. His stomach felt like it was concaving into itself, his muscles ache from sleeping on the ground all night. His feet kept sliding on the dew soaked morning grass, and each time it got harder and harder to catch himself. By the time the camp finally came into view he felt ready to drop, vision swimming slightly from lack of water.

He didn’t know how it had happened. They drilled, practiced, planned so this exact thing didn’t happen. It had been a food run, one of the most routine outings. They’d been in broad daylight. Sirius had been right behind him, he’d been making a joke, Remus had wanted to laugh and then…

His mind played the familiar sound of the undead breathing and he flinched. The next thing he remembered was waking up in the dark, and was forced to hide for the night. The dark was not for the living anymore.

He’d been walking for hours, made to feel longer in the heat of the day, hand glued to the gun at his hip, when the camp had finally appeared between trees. He let out a breath that he felt like he’d been holding for the entire night.

He waved his hands in surrender when he heard the familiar sound of a loaded gun being aimed in his direction and a shout from the watch towers.

“It’s me! It’s me..” Remus ran out of breath at the end, practically limping to the now slowly opening metal gates. He could understand their confusion. He was hardly walking like a human being right now. Remus looked up, chest flooding with relief at the sound of his name.

“Fucking hell-“ Sirius was squeezing his way through the doors before they had even opened properly and Remus practically collapsed into his chest. He felt an arm wrap around his waist, holding him up, the other pressing to the back of his neck, feeling heavenly against his clammy skin, “Jesus, Remus. Remus-“

“‘m fine… I’m fine-“ He could hear Sirius taking shaky breaths and Remus fisted the back of his t-shirt, pulling himself closer, “Pads, I’m okay-“

“Fuck.” Sirius pulled back, the hand that was on his neck sliding around to cradle his cheek, thumb tracing over the sticky cut on his temple, “God, I thought you were right behind me. Fuck, Re, I didn’t mean-You have to know I’d- I’d never just leave you out there-“

“Pads, of course I know that. Of course I know that-“

“Then you weren’t there.” Sirius’ breathing was escalating, his eyes wild, “You weren’t- I was holding your hand but…” Sirius shook his head, squeezing his eyes shut and letting his forehead drop to Remus’, “Jesus, Re, I thought you were…“ Sirius’ voice broke, “I thought you were…”

“I’m not. I’m fine, we’re fine.” Remus leaned into the hand stroking his cheek. He was slowly loosing the flood of adrenalin at seeing Sirius again, and he was more tired than before, “‘m not a zombie, however I am severely dehydrated.”

Sirius let out a slightly watery laugh, opening his eyes to see Remus smiling at him, and pressed a long kiss to his forehead, “You can have all the water in the world as long as you never leave this camp again.”

Remus laughed as he was pulled flush against Sirius’ side, “No promises.”

The warmth of Sirius’ body felt warmer than the sun in ever sense of the word, and their feet nearly tripped over each other as they walked into camp, letting the gates shut slowly behind them.

@l1ve-l4ugh-lov3craft continuing on with the marauders apocalypse thingy (for both rp and regular fanfic)

The top one is Regulus. He was bit and is immune. As I’ve said previously, being immune doesn’t mean that you don’t get screwed over, it just means you still are a human, not a zombie.

Anyways, with his immunity, his body slowly deteriorates/rots. His healing is slowed, so any injuries are worse. The rot spreads, yadayada, he becomes very mangled (in our rp, this will be slowly happening. As days go by, people will notice that, huh, his mouth is larger and doesn’t close, or huh, that’s a big chunk of black flesh)

With James, he is not mangled. Not bit. Loves his man to pieces. Absolutely in love. Injured constantly, but in love

Anyways, yeah. Doodles

[shadowjinx2906]

Ah yes, my next fic addiction…

1977. Remus had a plan. He was going to take an idyllic road trip across America with his best friend. He was going to smoke a lot of weed and listen to a lot of Queen. He was going to write something amazing. He definitely wasn't going to be what his dad wanted him to be. Getting bitten by a zombie dog wasn't part of his plan. Now Remus is parentless, homeless, and searching for his friend on the off-chance he’s still out there. But as it happens, the universe has a plan for him, and it involves hitching a ride with a trio of posh boys who like to plunder fallen towns...and maybe saving humanity in the process. It’s the zombie fucking apocalypse and Remus Lupin is still alive.

ZOMBIE AU

Rating: M (17+) for graphic depictions of violence and mature themes.

WIP. Updates on Fridays (EST) except when I feel like posting earlier.

Follow along for campy blood and guts, slow burn and then us-against-the-world romance, and gratuitous 1970s music references.

It’s a zombie apocalypse story but it’s also a coming of age story, a celebration of found family, and about learning to love yourself against the odds.
