okay okay so i’m in mock trial and this years whole case is about….an art heist. coincidence? i think the fuck not. i think whoever is on the committee or whatever for deciding mock trial matters is a secret otrbs reader. just thought u should know.

OBSESSED I WANNA BE IN THIS CLASS SO BAD !! i used to do mock trials back in high school (and debate,,, yeah i was that kid)

i hope whoever is on that committee is having a wonderful wonderful day (laughed at the otrtbs reader part <333 askghjg)

hi! you asked for marauders fic recs so im here to give you some :)

idk if you’ve read these or any yet, so they might seem kinda basic. they’re just to introduce you to this world/the characters. i wish i had a list like this when i first got into the marauders fandom ngl

also these are only gonna be marauders era fics, if you want golden trio era fics as well, i can give you some!

anyway:

all the young dudes by mskingbean89 (completed, 527k words, wolfstar & jily): this is THE marauders fic for most ppl, and i just think of it as what happened canonically. no fic is perfect, but this should be every1’s first marauders era fic imo (you might’ve read this already cuz it’s SO popular). its from remus’ pov and it follows him throughout hogwarts and until (i think) poa or ootp

the wolf’s tail by myheadsgonenumb (wip, 457k words, no ships yet but prob wolfstar & jily): this one’s pretty underrated imo, and it’s SO WELL WRITTEN!!! this also follows remus throughout hogwarts. however id say the diff between this and atyd is that (so far at least) it focuses more on the war side of the marauders era, even when they are still young and at hogwarts. so if you’re interested in how actually dark and dangerous the times were back then, even for children, you will like this one! the only thing ill say for this is that its kinda very descriptive at points (ex. there’s a lot of newspaper clippings, book quotes, interview transcripts etc) but you can just gloss over them if you think they’re not that important. rn i think their 5th year just started, so keep that in mind (its gonna be a long one)!

the cadence of part-time poets by motswolo (completed, 980k words, wolfstar & jily): AAAAAAHHHH this one is my ALL TIME FAV (marauders era) FIC <33333 this is a muggle au, so no magic! this is also a remus pov (😭) and he goes to hawkings (which is basically hogwarts) in his (i think??) 4th year? or younger? smt like that :,). this fic also has my fav oc (tomny) hehe. as the tags say, its a band fic/au, but i’ll spoil no more!

the making of the map by fox_pitch (completed, 79k words, wolfstar & jily): this is a shorter one, but its also rlyyy good. pretty sure this starts and ends in their sixth year, but as the title suggests, its how the marauders map come to exist! its also how wolfstar gets together and its very cute and wholesome. the ending is kinda ambiguous in the sense that it doesn’t give any hints as to if anything changes in this fic’s universe’s future, but id assume not.

choices by messermoon (completed, 624k words, jegulus, wolfstar & jily): i kinda assumed you wanted the “canon” ships (aka jily and wolfstar) but if you’re interested in jegulus (james potter/regulus black) then this one is prob for you. i personally haven’t finished this fic, but ik its a jegulus classic/canon, just like atyd is for jily (& wolfstar). this one follows james, and it doesn’t start on his first year i think. it has alternating povs as well! however, as the tags warn, it is canon compliant, aka reg dies in the end, so do w that what you will :,)

only the brave by solmussa (completed, 646k words, jegulus, wolfstar, dorlene, rosekiller & pandalily): this is another jegulus fic! it has started being considered a classic and if you read it, you’ll understand why. this also does not start from their first year, and this one also has alternating povs! i love the writing and just general concept/plot of this one; i don’t love jegulus but i was still HOOKED w this fic, so yes. its rly good. and as you can see w the tags, this is a happy ending (aka, reg lives)!!!!! mwah love those.

art heist, baby! by otrbs (completed, 219k words, jegulus, wolfstar, dorlene, alice/frank longbottom - idk their ship name): i also have not read this fic, but ive only heard good things about it (and some sobs but that’s what you get for “major character death” : ) )! i know the ending of it tho, and it is kinda sad, so prepare yourself. it is a muggle au, and they basically wanna pull an art heist? yup lets go w that simple explanation.

that’s it for now bahhaha, and its a LOT, so enjoy! if you want shorter ones, i also have some i can show you, and if you’ve read these, lmk if you like them! <3

OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH 🙏🙏🙏 Ur my savior bro. I'm abt to finish ATYD and I started reading The Making of the Map per your suggestion because it was short enough to download a pdf to read in class 💀💀 I really like both of them!! I need to psych myself up to read some of the 500k+ fics tho bc atyd took me so long 😭😭😭 I'll let you know how I find the rest of them ^^ TYY!!!

My baby girl kitty Kimiko just went OTRB and my heart is broken.

[lelibug]

This is me and Buddy -- the Jack Russell who thinks he's an enormous Rotwiller...!

... I had a Staffy/Greyhound mix, (Souly... now OTRB) and he took up less room on the bed than Buddy!

i pronounce your username as “or-t-bus” so frequently that i looked up “ort” on tumblr the other day and had a little freak out because i thought you deleted your account

anskjhajal no that’s so understandable

i’ve seen people mention my username and misspell it like ortbs or otrbs or any variation of those letters and i get it bc no way would i memorize a random string of letters like that 😭

[the-floof-king]

I love sewing. And I've never lost my love for toys, dolls especially. And I've always loved cats. I've bought plenty of plush cats over the years and I still love them (I have two smol tigers I carry with me everywhere). But I never found the right cat doll to dress up. So I decided to make one.

Went through a ton of prototypes until I found a pattern I liked. My daughter gets all of the prototypes, so she has quite a collection. Finally I created the four little kitties for my kingdom:

Patches Webber, based off my real Calico sweetie, Rupert Peterson, based off our (otrb) kitty Pete, Molly Sheehan, based off my best friend's siamese kitty, and Ellie Slysh, based off a kitty my daughter's great grandfather had.

I hope everyone enjoys my kitties! They are entirely sewn by hand - clothes, shoes, and kitty. I don't use a machine.

Bad news. Our Henry has passed away, crossing the rainbow bridge. 🌈😿 Henry was the Barky Cat, our namesake, because of his hilarious ability to make a barking/chuffing sound when he became excited. As of October 2018, he was the last of the original Barky Cat Bros. Thomas, Henry’s littermate, passed away a few months ago. We sort of expected that Henry wouldn’t be far behind—sort of like an old married couple following each otger into the great beyond. But, we are happy that we got all of the time we did. Back in October 2015, Henry stopped eating and had an e-tube installed. In May 2016, he had a permanent feeding port placed in his side, which is why he constantly wore shirts and costumes. As long as Henry remained happy and healthy—but for that whole eating thing—we were happy, too. Over the past two weeks, Henry’s health deteriorated. Rapidly. His last best day was Valentine’s Day, and we are so happy we captured adorable videos. For us, Henry was larger than life, a force of love and happiness, and the calm center of our indoor animal kingdom. He will be missed. And here is a video of our Barky Cat.
