it's the scene with stede when they're finally on the revenge that does it for me. it's when he tries to shift the blame for what he did onto stede "you and me did this to him" because he can't accept that he did it, not stede, and he needs stede to absolve him (which he won't, not in a million years. it'd be antithetical to stede's nature to do that.) it's the contrast between "you know me better than anyone has ever known me, and I daresay the same is true for me about you", an assumption that has had the most fucked up consequences we've seen on this show so far, and stede's calm and assured "he was going to watch the world burn or die trying (and I love him and I don't care and I just want him to be fine)". it's the echo between "I'm here. I'm here. you're safe" and "I should've let the English kill you. This, whatever you've become, is a fate worse than death"
it's the way the show set up izzy and stede and their relationships with ed as narrative foils from the beginning and then said "watch what happens when each of them leads the dance." and then fed us a banquet
#show of all time!!!!!!!#my poor beloved babygirl caught in the storm#i want to believe they'll explore izzy's faults further#i want to trust that the truth will come out and izzy will have to deal with the fallout of his abuse#ofmd spoilers#i was upset about how much screentime izzy and ed got when we only get 8 episodes#but maybe it wasn't that bad#maybe we needed to see how extremely absolutely balls to the wall fucked up shit got when izzy got to choose the music#i have no hope the feral izzy fans will take anything from this except confirmation of their bias#but the show isn't for them is it#alex watches ofmd

Torn: Remus Lupin Story: PS OC: Chapter One: Sordid Sorting
————————-
Remus Lupin Imagine Turned Story
Re-Written and Edit of an old story of mine I had on Mibba that deserved some more love and attention, lol.
Remus Lupin x Vega Black (OC, OFC, PLUS SIZE OC, PLUS SIZE OFC)
————————————-----------
“Yet when books have been read and reread, it boils down to the horse, his human companion, and what goes on between them.” ― Walter Farley
------------------------------------------------------------------
This Chapter’s Song: “River” - Leon Bridges
------------------------------------------------------------------
Vega was eleven when she first met Remus.
She incredibly nervous at the time seeing as how it was her very first year at Hogwarts.
Her aunt and uncle had heavily warned her about getting into any house other than Slytherin....as if she had some kind of control over that kind of thing.
Sirius, her older cousin, who was more like a brother to be honest, had simply wrapped an arm around her shoulders.
"It'll be fine, V. I swear it. No matter what house you get in. It'll be fine. Maybe you'll even be a Gryffindor, like me." he had told her with that infamous smirk of his.
Twelve years old and full of pride over his house.
But Vega was not convinced.
She'd been home when they'd received the news of which house Sirius had been placed in....and well, it hadn't been good.
She remembered very clearly that she'd grabbed Regulus and they'd ran off to hide until the storm blew over.
If you were present when Orion or Walburga Black were angry....well, you'd likely become a target.
After her parents had died when she was seven, she’d been placed in the care of her closest relatives and that happened to be her Uncle Orion and his family.
She’d left behind her beloved country roads and enchanting woods of Tennessee in America and was relocated in London.
She was expected to go to Hogwarts rather than Ilvermorny.
She was expected to be a respectable pureblood and get sorted into the only reasonable house.
Needless to say, she was terrified.
At that particular moment in time, they were racing down the tracks on the Hogwarts express.
To calm her nerves, Sirius had offered to have her sit with him and his friends in their compartment.
She was first introduced to James.
A boy with impossibly messy black hair, glasses and a permanent smirk...almost identical to her brothers.
Next was a small boy named Peter with impossibly blue eyes that were a tad unsettling to her just due to the nature of how piercing they were.
He looked friendly enough and if Sirius liked him she was sure she would too.
Lastly, was Remus.
Oh, Remus.
He was tall and lanky with very pale skin and light brown hair.
Vega could distinctly see a few scars across his face and on his hands but due to his clothes all else was hidden.
But he had the most beautiful green eyes but curiously enough there seemed to be a very faint golden brown ring around them.
She wouldn't have noticed had she not been so taken with him.
He was much quieter than the others but still quite nice.
Remus John Lupin.
Her very first crush.
Remus would've died from mortification at that time if anyone knew but....he found her quite pretty.
She was a year younger, yes.
And she was also Sirius little cousin, this was true.
One that he’d spent the better part of last year talking about to his new friends.
“Oh, you’ll love Vega, mates.” he could remember him telling them. “She’s a little shy at first but she’s actually from America. A cowgirl.”
Remus doubted if she was actually a cowgirl since Sirius had a way of being dramatic.
But she was so pretty.
She and Sirius resembled each other a lot with their thick black hair and big striking grey eyes but her features were softer than his.
She was much quieter with Sirius, although not impolite.
Sirius, whether he liked to admit it or not, had had the same good etiquette beat into him that she had and it often gave him a sort of casual elegance.
Little Vega sat stiff backed, mouth shut and eyes trained determined on her book.
She found reading to be easier.
She could focus on the words there and not on what she might say wrong that could potentially anger her parents.
Books were just by far much easier.
This intrigued Remus.
He had asked her so softly.
"What are you reading?"
She jumped at the sound of his voice, even as soft as it had been.
"Oh, um, it's-uh." she stammered.
"Oh that's The Black Stallion." he smiled. "It's a great book. My mum read it to me when I was little. It's a great muggle book."
Fear struck through her.
"Oh, I- please don't tell Aunt Walburga. I just- It looked so interesting and I wanted to know about the horse." Vega rambled as tears filled her grey eyes.
Sirius gave a hard forced smile to his friends before he grabbed his cousin and yanked her out of the compartment.
"Vega! Calm down! Bloody hell!" he snapped.
Tears were spilling, "I'm sorry, Sirius! I'm sorry! I didn't meant to get you in trouble with your friends! Now, Aunt and Uncle will be furious! I'm sorry!"
Sirius placed his hands on the side of her face.
"Vega, V, look at me. Look. at. me." he said holding her in place and willing her big, frightened eyes to focus on him. "It's fine. No one will tell mum and dad. These are my friends. Remus was just making conversation. His mother is actually a muggle."
He added the last bit with a little smile towards her.
She'd been so frightened.
She sniffled before she hugged her book closer to her for a moment.
"Come on. Come back inside." he said trying to lighten the mood.
She shook her head sending the black tendrils everywhere.
"No." she said. "Those are your friends. I...I'll go sit with someone else."
"V, come on." he said.
But she'd already whipped around and was dashing away.
Sirius shook his head as he entered the compartment.
"I'm sorry, Sirius. Really, I didn't mean to upset her. I didn't think-" Remus began his apology.
Sirius waved him off, "It's fine, mate. V's just....she's a little skiddish is all. Our family can be a bit much sometimes. She just doesn't want to get in trouble."
There was a collective nod around the room.
It wasn't a huge secret that Sirius didn't have the greatest home life...but he was good at hiding it.
Seeing Vega be absolutely petrified by pure conversation....made it all too real for the twelve year olds in the compartment.
The four of them played cards for a bit longer until they train stopped and everyone filed off.
Remus caught glimpse of the silky, black hair glinting in the night and those two big grey orbs that looked like moons themselves.
They landed on him and he could even see her flush red...even in this poor lighting.
He smiled at her kindly and gave a little wave to which she returned...hesitantly before she was bustled along into the boat with the other first years.
He joined his friends and soon they were seated at the Gryffindor table in the Great Hall listening to Dumbledore and waiting for the Sorting ceremony to begin.
Vega almost hid behind some of the first year boys as she entered the Great Hall and her cousin Narcissa smacked into her pushing her way to the front.
She’d willingly let her take the spotlight and hide amongst the others but it wasn't for long before someone spotted her and the whispered began.
"It's the Black girl!"
"That's Sirius' little sister!"
“No that’s his cousin! The one who’s parents were killed!”
"Bet she'll get into Slytherin!"
"Maybe Gryffindor!"
"I bet she's evil!"
"She looks just like him!"
“Did you hear about her father being a-”
She shook her head to try and drown them out and before she knew it...
"Vega Equuleus Black." came the crisp words from the professor.
She gulped and took careful steps up to the stool before carefully settling down on it.
The giant hat was placed upon her head and...
"RAVENCLAW!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Big, grey eyes snapped open in fear and shock.
She could distinctly see Sirius and his friends whooping and hollering on her behalf while her cousins at the Slytherin table looked less than pleased.
If she hadn't been in front of all those people....she would've cried.
Because she knew.
She knew that when Orion and Walburga found out....and she went home for holiday....there would be no escaping it.
They would be angry and she WOULD be punished.
