#remus being SEEN

[loonyloopylupin96]

Incorrect Quotes -

Lily: James is straightforward, brilliant and an ass.

Remus: Two out of three good qualities - clear majority!

Lily: Whereas you, on the other hand, have a perfect score. You are responsible, nice, human. And yet you're one of James' best friends.

Remus: Makes you think he's secretly nicer than he seems?

Lily: Makes me think that you're secretly a lot less nice than you seem.

My unpopular Marauders opinion is that Remus did love Tonks in a romantic way. It wasn’t a ‘lavender marriage’ or anything like that. He was bisexual and loved her to pieces, and Teddy was the result of that love. I don’t think that takes away from the fact that he loved Sirius too.

I just want to know that who looked at the lines "finally, the flesh reflects the madness within// well you'd know all about the madness within, wouldn't you Remus?" And thought that 'yeah that screams straight best friends and heterosexuality'

[againaweasel]

Hear me out: Remadora is so 'We'll Never Have Sex' coded.

Oh, you kissed me just to kiss me Not to take me home

Tonks who spent their life as a novelty or a walking wet dream, finding someone who knows what it's like to be reduced to your body.

You look perfect, you look different I don't wonder about your indifference

Finding someone who would never ask them to change because he understands that a changing body does not make the person, and he wants Tonks. As they are.

If I said you could never touch me You'd come over and say I looked lovely

And Remus wouldn't touch them unless they asked because he's terrified of this desire inside him and needs that permission to take, to hold, to love.

Depollute me, gentle angel And I'll feel the sickness less and less

I’m surprised with how people write Wade breaking the fourth wall in fanfics, I’ve never seen a “okay Remus lupin” joke to Peter cause you get those occasional remarks of him “looking like Andrew Garfield” and Peter’s like who’s that ?? But yeah I’ve never read a meta fourth wall joke like that

sirius was definitely emotionally stunted by being locked up for 12 years, and i mean i dont blame him but he is somewhat still immature by the way he snapped at harry in order of the phoenix by telling him he isnt similair to james as much as he thought so. Like yeah ofc james was a risk taker and hot headed prick, he never went through childhood trauma that harry did, ofc harry is more cautious and careful and doesnt want you to go back to prison because you want to take an evening stroll in hogsmeade. he wants to keep you safe dude

James had the luxury of taking risks, but Harry at this point does not

i cant believe i didnt think of Voices In My Head from Be More Chill for Thomas sooner but Im thinking about it now so this is my formal submission

(Strongly encouraged to listen to the song before voting! Lyrics under the cut.)

You've gotta buy her a rose, compliment her on her clothes Say you appreciate that she’s smart! Nah, man, you tell her that she excites you sexually And that's the way you get to her heart! Trust me, I know How it's gonna go Listen, and oh

And there are voices in my ear I guess these never disappear I'll let 'em squeal and I will deal and make up my own mind Might still have voices in my head, but now they're just the normal kind Voices in my head, but now they're the normal kind!

Just summon strength from within! Don't get hung up on your skin! She prob'ly thinks that acne is hot I'll throw you a rope, home slice, if you need some dope advice Now, march on over and give her a shot!

Buddy, you'll see It'll go perfectly If you listen to me, me, me!

And there are voices all around And you can never mute the sound They scream and shout, I tune them out, and make up my own mind Might still have voices in my head, but now they're just the normal kind Voices in my head, but now they're the normal kind!

I still remember how it felt It's embarrassing to find out deep down, I just want things to be easy Yeah, but, who wants things to be hard? Look, I almost destroyed the school Maybe all of human civilization I know that the last thing I deserve is another shot, but- Just- Say what's on your mind, Jeremy Lunch? Just the two of us?

And any voices in our heads? There might be voices in our heads But I swear the voices there will be the regular kind Me and the voices in my head have made up our collective mind What do they say we should do? I think that all of us want to go out with you

And there are voices in my head So many voices in my head And they can yell and hurt like hell, but I know I'll be fine! Still have voices in my head And there are voices in my head Of the voices in my head, the loudest one is mine! (Jeremy...) Loudest one is mine! (You can't get rid of me that easily...) Loudest one is mine! (Jeremy) Na, na na na na na na na na na, na na Na, na na na na na na na na na, na na Na, na na na na na na na na na, na na Na Let's go! C-c-c-c'mon, c-c-c-c'mon, let's go! C-c-c-c'mon, c-c-c-c'mon, let's go! C-c-c-c'mon, c-c-c-c'mon, let's go! C-c-c-c'mon, c-c-c-c'mon, let's go! C-c-c-c'mon, c-c-c-c'mon, let's go! C-c-c-c'mon, c-c-c-c'mon, let's go

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!

Wdym regulus emasculating sirius👁️👁️

I have no idea what you mean, Jamie, I have no idea. I think you are being strange-

I don't think Regulus does it in an "I was a born a woman and now suffers that while [Sirius] gets to prance around." Type of thing. I think if anyone thinks that, it's Walburga and Narcissa. The difference is that for example, Narcissa wants the position of power associated with a man while still being a woman (she thinks she's capable as a woman) while Regulus thinks he can be a better man himself as a whole.

Regulus doesn't view Sirius very highly in terms of being the Head of the House [Black]. Sirius goes against their family teachings, actively fights back against his family, and runs away, etc etc. With this, Regulus views him as rather weak, and since I think Regulus associated the purity views with love, he kinda also thinks that Sirius is a coward for not giving into those views for their family and by extension, Regulus. By emasculating Sirius, Regulus is admitting he can be a better "man" or he is "more of a man" than his brother.

I am aware that I sound like those people who say Regulus is sexist and believe me I know that, I'm sorry but I think sexism is so SO heavy in the stuff we embed into the Pureblood Society of Harry Potter (arrange marriages, victorian "aesthetics") (in my case, Chinese culture) that kinda "ties" everything together. Even though the idea of sexism is a rlly weird topic with Trans Regulus and the female characters of the Marauders (once again another thing that the fandom does to make up for the lack of female content). If you're gonna hc Regulus as trans, it is going to happen with the connections you put into the Purebloods. Yk? Anyway I'll shut up about this lol

Regulus is trying to validate the man he isn't allowed to be by emasculating Sirius' biological masculinity that comes with his identity as a cis man. It's less about the fact he's afab but it's more selfish, catering to Regulus, specifically as a closeted Trans Man. In a broader view, you could say it reflects his selfish nature in a very wide range way.

Slowly coming back to Tumblr after a month break of nothing but random queued posts, so, uh, hi!

Dukexiety has me in a chokehold. So why not share some more random Dukexiety shenanigans?

Okay, so: Slime Rancher AU. Slime Rancher is this cute slime game where you're a rancher who ranches slimes. One of my favorite games, so now it's time to project.

Anyway: Remus and Virgil have separate Ranches. Remus' ranch is called the Silvera Ranch, and Virgil's ranch is called the Marcello Ranch. Named after their surnames.

Remus' specialty is mostly all the slimes that hurt you. Crystal slimes, Hunter slimes, Radiation slimes, Boom slimes, etc. He even has an Incinerator to house the Fire slimes. The only not-deadly slimes he has on his ranch are the Puddle slimes because they're fucking adorable and make cute sounds and live in a pond to help with on-hand water supply for the water tank attachment on the VacPak. He even has the full collection of the Slime Toys shop unlocked (from the 7Zee Rewards thing), and got a battery toy for his Radiation slimes. The Radiation slimes love it.

Virgil's specialty seems to be the slimes who are sensitive to light or who are pretty elusive. Like Quantum slimes, Phosphorus slimes, Hunter slimes, etc. He has the cave expansion to his ranch all decked-out. He's a bit anxious about spoiling food or running out of food, so all his farms are maxed out with all the stuff to make them grow faster or scare away stray slimes.

Virgil has his ranch & tech & VacPak set in the purple Chroma Pack of Kanpeki. Remus has the green Chroma Pack of Tomatillo.

When Remus and Virgil meet & realize they're both on the planet of the Far, Far Range, they found out their ranches are the closest to each other. And on a faraway alien planet, you learn to make fast friends with those closest to you in distance because it can get incredibly lonely. And so their friendship begins!

They'll visit each other's ranches from time to time and help each other out. Dealing with Mochi Miles & the Quicksilver slimes stresses Virgil out, so Remus helps with that. Remus has dangerous slimes, and while it's more his style and he has the energy for it, it can still get him hurt from time to time. Virgil doesn't mind helping him making sure the slimes are fed and keeping an eye on Remus' farms. They both help each other on adventures when traveling away from their ranches, they'll sometimes watch the other's ranch if one of them is going on a longer adventure, and they help each other with all the science stuff in the Laboratory.

After a long while of being close to one another, the occasional joint adventures, all that...well, they start realizing their feelings for each other aren't entirely platonic. But they're not romantic either.

Yep, it's time for: qpp Dukexiety!

They're not sure how to define they're feelings for each other, but 'love' is the wrong word. They care a lot about each other and are fond of each other. They joke around on adventures. They help with ranch chores. They sometimes the stay the night over at each other's ranches when it starts to get too dark and neither of them want to deal with the likelihood of Tarrs.

And they have no fucking clue how to tell each other.

They don't wanna ruin what good friendship they already have! So, neither of these dorks tell the other that they care about them in a different way than friendship. Of course, because I am cliché, it all gets confessed on a joint adventure. It's dark. They're miles away from either of their ranches. They're on their way back. They're running from feral slimes and Tarrs, and the adrenaline is coursing through them. Remus is trying to find one of the start teleporters that lay around the area they're in. Virgil is holding his hand as they run so they don't lose each other. Virgil's the one blasting Tarrs with his water tank attachment thing. A Tarr pops up and attacks Remus before he can react to it. It bites him but then Virgil IMMEDIATELY shoots it with water and it explodes into little Tart bits. Remus is stunned by Virgil saving him as Virgil pulls them quickly into a safer little cave to figure out where to go next to get back to a ranch.

And then Remus confesses that he's desperately attracted to Virgil in a queerplatonic way. Virgil dismisses as an effect of the adrenaline rush, and so Remus tells him they can talk about it when they get back and it'll be the same answer. They figure out that Virgil's ranch is closest so they finally find a fucking teleporter and go to Marcello Ranch.

Once at the Ranch, Virgil tends to Remus' Tarr bite so it doesn't get infected and they talk. Remus confesses again, like he said he would. He admits he's been feeling this way for a while but didn't wanna fuck up their friendship because Virgil's important to him and he's terrified of losing him. Virgil stares at him as he finishes bandaging Remus, and then hugs him tight. Remus hugs back. Virgil confesses he's felt the same (queerplatonic) towards him but didn't know how to articulate it and also doesn't want to lose Remus. They decide to enter a qpp partnership and figure it out together.

Somewhere down the road, they decide to combine their ranches and stuff. It becomes a chaotic home to many different slimes, a mess of green and purple everywhere, and they name it the Royal Storms Ranch. They pick a name that represents a piece of both of them: Royal for Remus' nickname "Dukey" and Storm for Virgil's affinity for thunderstorms.

And yadda yadda, happy ending, qpp Dukexiety wins!

This is so long, my bad, lol.

( @oatmeal-stans-the-trash-rat )

Aye welcome back Oatmeal :}D!!! This AU sounds S O fucking cool and cute oml P L E A S E!!! It's got QPP Dukexiety where they have a deep level of trust and care for one another and are more than willing to stick by each other's side to figure out what they're feeling, Fitting unique last names for the beloveds that make really cool ranch names, Super sweet moments like them visiting each other's ranches from time to time and helping each other out when they need it, Them adventuring and surviving together, Them combining their ranches and pretty much raising a slime army together are all such fucking D E L I C I O U S concepts and I L O V E it!!!

ty for the tag @kaaaaaaarf!!! what better way to return to tumblr than with a snippet of our most beloved hatefuck 🤩👹💕👏😈😛🤌

i've been back in a writing groove this week & feel 90% confident that i will not be completely wiping the draft again, so pls enjoy this snippet of ch. 10 as a reward for your patience. the rest is coming soon! 💕

“Remus Lupin—“

He shot up, narrowly dodging the balled up sock Sirius threw somewhere in the vicinity of his head. “I’m up! I’m up, I’m up, I promise.“

He resigned himself to his fate and summoned the courage to get out of bed, shuffling blearily to the open bathroom door. Sirius met his eyes in the mirror and smiled pointedly around his toothbrush, so extra soft and perfect in the dim, orange-tinted light that Remus’ heart tugged fondly in his chest. He counted his blessings, thanked the universe for the thousandth time that he was lucky enough to be awarded such a sight on a near-daily basis, and gave into the urge to hold Sirius close, wrapping his arms in a loose circle around his middle, pressing his nose to the crook of his neck. He let his eyes slip shut and reveled in the moment quietly—Sirius’ back against his chest, cold fingers grazing his wrist over his stomach, the way he leaned back into Remus’ grip instantly.

“I’m sorry,” he muttered eventually. Sirius hummed a flat note and leaned over to spit in the sink, rinsing for a quick moment before spinning around to face him. 

“For what?” he asked amusedly. “Being extremely lazy and refusing to get out of bed?”

“No, um—well yeah, sure, but no,” Remus tried sheepishly, rubbing at the back of his neck absently. Looking at Sirius suddenly felt impossible, and he felt that same embarrassed heat from before begin to crawl back up his neck. “I just meant for—uh, for last night?”

Sirius cocked his head to the side. “What?”

“I was a lot, I know. I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean to—“

“You’re apologizing for last night? Are you joking?”

Remus frowned. “No?”

Teddy being fully unhinged but hiding it well because he was raised to be a gentleman is SO important to me.

He's a good polite boy but sometimes he gets this look in his eyes that says if you put a toe out wrong he'll rip your throat out with his teeth.

People are like "he scares the shit out of me" and he literally looks like this

But they're right. They should be scared.

[rollercoasterwords]

marauders fandom passing barty crouch jr. around like public property....shipping him w literally everyone when we KNOW the only man he had eyes for in canon was voldemort...let that boy REST i am begging u !!!!!!!!!

[rewritingcanon]

people say that the wizarding war ended in 1999 or whatever but the true war will end once snape stans and marauder fans stop aimlessly arguing over which characters are morally applicable to like and which aren’t and just accept that its okay to like either of them. it literally does not matter whatsoever

remus: anyone else whisper “what the fuck” to themselves at least 96 times a day or is it just me

Just watched Priscilla Queen of the Desert for the first time and I can confirm Sirius Black would make this his whole personality
