the way i see it, different kinds of personnality are like… a spectrum. some of us are more like sirius, and other more like remus. and it’s okay. we need all of these personalities to create a balanced world.
Étiquette : marauders
@slytheroutofmybed and i are impulsively improvising a perfect wolfstar imitation
dream cast
okay so if you don’t know yet i’m french and there is that french movie called “the children of timplebach” which is about a town where the parents left the children alone and MERLIN IT HAS THE PERFECT CAST FOR THE MARAUDERS

see that nerd with long hair ? he’s the most dramatic dude in here. at the some point he says “now he are left alone with our fate” and he always want to be the centre of attention
if this isn’t a great sirius black, well then i know nothing

and this redhair girl ? she won’t take any man bullshit. she can and will kick your ass and if you bully someone she’ll fucking destroy you and then take care of the poor kid like a mother
also she rejected her crush because he used to be an arrogant bullying toerag but got with him when she saw we really was a good guy
hello lily evans you are so freaking cool

well, this kid has no other personnality trait than his love for food, which is exactly how the marauders fandom is portraying peter. not a lot to say about him

this cutie ? he cannot speak, and he has a chronical illness ( lycanthropy modern translation hello ? ) and he won’t ever ask for help, which is both is biggest quality and his worst flaw, but he won’t let you tell him he’s disabled and he’s a shy nerd soooo remus lupin
we unfortunately have no james sorry about that
what they saw in the mirror of erised
james : himself, old but still healthy, surrounded by his children and lily at his side, laughing. the marauders are here laughing too, sirius ruffling his hair and probably making fun of them. everyone has a large smile and feel close.
remus : himself, but his scars are gone. his clothes are tidy and look new, his prefect badge still on his robes. sirius is holding his hand and they are staring lovingly at each other
sirius : the marauders all together, chatting and laughing. they are all happy, the heaviness of the war and their trials is gone. they are who they are supposed to be, carefree teenagers with nothing to worry about except but their exams and homeworks
peter : himself, but not quite. he’s taller, and thiner, a bit athletic. he seems more confident too, and is it a hickey on his neck ?
regulus : his whole family, including sirius, is here, but they aren’t fighting. in fact, they seem to be talking and enjoying to be together. he notices there is nothing on anyone’s forearm
none of these ever became true
i totally hc sirius as a green day fanboy, especially warning, like :
“am i the one who’s really dangerous ?”
“yes pads you are now don’t put that in the cauldron please it’s dangerous”
“question everything !”
“sirius this is going to explode”
“i live without warning moony !”
*cauldron exploses and ruins sirius’s punk rock hair*
if you don’t think remus lupin was using the fact that he technically isn’t 100 percent human when he was pissed off like “what do you mean james lily’s smile is your own personnal sun merlin humans are weird”
well i’m sorry but you’re wrong.
what if same sex marriage wasn’t allowed in the wizarding world
what if remus and sirius always knew they could never get married like james and lily. and they would pretend it’s all cool but secretely be super disappointed. so one day in seventh year james would get mad and fuck this bullshit they would organize a wedding with rings and peter would be officing, obviously james is sirius’s best man and lily is remus’s. they invite all their friends, and throw the best party hogwarts ever saw and will ever see. remus and sirius were smiling and laughing and blushing. thousands of picture were taken. james and lily had to dance together bc tradition, and there was a lot of blushing here too.
and at the end of the party, as sirius was walking to the kitchen to get remus some chocolate as the lovely husband he was, he crossed regulus.
and even if he couldn’t be sure, he thought he heard him wispering “congratulations”
about sirius/james brotp : a list of unorganized thoughts
- before the sorting ceremony, even if they knew each other since barely half an hour, sirius made james swore he won’t stop talking to him if he ends up in slytherin
- they think they have invented everything. like “what do you mean remus we didn’t invent drinking games in the dorm ? excuse you !”
- they have the most complicated secret hand shake ever which includes singing and rock paper scissor.
- sirius had always said james should give up on lily because he didn’t like to see his brother hurt, but he was the first to notice lily was warming up to him and wasn’t hating him as much as before, and he started to play matchmaker.
- james is doing the exact same thing with sirius and remus since fucking day one. he forced them to settle in the beds next to each other.
- they try to finish each other’s sentences and fail all the freaking time.
- they also always ask “are you thinking what i’m thinking ?” and end up thinking about something completely different and make a mess
- sirius started the gryffindor cheerleader team. he was the only member but didn’t care and performed before every match anyway to cheer on his bro
- try and tell me everyone didn’t believe they were a couple.
- because they cuddled all the time
- PLATONIC KISSES ON THE BLOODY LIPS FIGHT ME ON THIS
- private jokes all the time
- and now with the angst.
- james knew since year 2 about sirius’s home situation, and he always knew it would end up like that. he had already asked his parents countless times if they would adopt him if he needed
- and when it finally happened, sirius slept in james’s bed for the rest of the holidays. the only exceptions were the times remus visited and james gave them some couple privacy
- when james and lily went to their first date, sirius was sincerly crying because he was scared james would leave him now he had someone else important in his life. it took two hours to remus to comfort him.
- during the war, sirius would burst into the potter’s home whenever it was too much for him
- and when they went into hiding, sirius cried for three days. literally.
- and
- the
- 31th
- of
- october
- he felt like his mind was blank and all he could think about was to kill peter. it was the same thought who occupied him most of the twelve years in azkaban – that and his remus who was alone and vulnerable.
all the marauders are trans.
as i promised you…
original idea from @siriusqueerionblack who has an amazing blog
warning : i’m cis so if i said anything offensive or innacurate please message me and i’ll fix it right away.
- remus figured out it was time he told his friends.
- after all, they had been completly acceptant about his lycanthropy when they had found out one year ago, so why not about that ?
- so he decided he would tell them, and he felt confident about their reactions.
- it happened friday evening, and they were working on the map, when he cleared his throat and asked them if they could listen to him for a second.
- the marauders shifted in “confidence position”, which meant all sitted on the bed of the one who wanted to talk, james holding him by the shoulder.
- he started to be very nervous, but when he saw sirius comforting grin, he started to talk :
- “guys, i know it probobly doesn’t matter to you all, but i wanted you to know that i’m transgender.”
- he feeled better as soon as he said it. but as he glanced at the marauders, he realized they are all frozen in shock and his enthiusiasm dies in his stomach.
- no one says anything for a minute, and remus breaks down and starts to ask them why they aren’t saying anything and if they hate for this, because if he is not at all insecure about it he is afraid his friends will throw him out of the dorm.
- but james laughes a bit and says “no, moony, i’m sorry, sorry if we scared you. it’s just that…”
- and he hugs remus very hard and announce “i’m trans too.”
- and remus just stares at him and he is too surprised to do anything so he just hugs him back and laughes a bit because what the hell is this coincidence ?
- but they are interrumpted by peter who whispered “you gotta be kidding me…”
- and james turns to him and asks him if anything’s wrong with that, slightly aggresive. but peter just opens his mouth and shouts “me. fucking. too.”
- and this time they all burst out lauging because this is crazy, but so cool.
- so james turns to sirius and says “look at that, sirius, you’re the only cis in the room.”
- and sirius blushes and mumbles “well… actually…” and he joins what will be remembered as the Super Trans Hug of Third Year
- so the marauders are officially all trans, and you can’t expect them to just ignore this.
- first, there are the puns.
- a monday night in the dorm : “remus can you help me with my trans-figuration homeworks ?” “sorry pete i already have a trans-lation to do in ancient runes” “any one can name me three muggles means of trans-port ? it’s for muggles studies”
- and those are the good ones
- because everytime james is back from quidditch practice, he is greeted by “go take a shower, james, you smell like trans-piration !”
- and of course it doesn’t stop with the puns.
- that won’t be very marauder.
- that means that when lily told james not to be a dick, sirius bursted in from nowhere and exclaimed “oh honey i can assure you there is no dick here”
- and then walk around the castle with james yelling that no one here’s a dick
- he still refers to it sometimes. he is way too proud of it, according to remus.
- but of course trans marauders also mean that there will be a “punishment prank” everytime a pure blood will use sirius’s dead name or the wrong pronouns
- but only after a Special Night Of Comfort Against Dysphoria, involving hot chocolate and stupid games and embarassing stories and soppy comfort lines.
- it’s during those nights they practiced binding charms together and learned how to prepare an hormonal potion
- and they always little references to their transgenderism in public, but noboby understands what they mean and is very confused
- for example : there is a reason the marauders started to call sirius “pads” and it’s not the short for “padfoot”
- basically trans marauders being super supportive of each other and really cute.
trans james potter
- 6 years old james who tells his parents he is actually a boy. they think it is just a joke or a game first, but after some time they realize he is very serious and asks him if he wants to change his pronouns. 6 years old james happily agrees.
- 7 years old james who chooses his new name and throws away all his dresses because even if boys can wear dresses too he hates it and feels like they are wrong on him
- 8 years old james who pulls a very special prank on his grandma after she misgendered him and used his dead name and didn’t apologize. the prank involved fish, a handbad and a lot of eggs.
- 9 years old james who is very glad because his parents have officially changed his name and his dead name is now completely forgotten
- 10 years old james who starts to worry that he’ll have to explain to an entire school he’s not a girl bc he is starting to get more and more misgendered by strangers ( in shops for exemple ) and he knows there are a lot of transphobe out there
- 11 years old james who is getting to hogwarts and cross the path of one rather chubby boy who called him a girl, but noticed the hurt in his eyes and immediatly asked for the correct pronouns and apologized, before to offer him a chocolate frog. and that is how james and peter became friends. later that day he will get equally positive reactions fro the oher guys in the boy dorm he lives in
- 12 years old who first learns hexes with sirius to “punish” bigots, with the help of their quiet and pacifist friend remus who is a bit too enthusiastic about this whole thing
- 13 years old james who starts to notice the pretty red hair girl in their year and feels something is different with her, like she is not the same as anyone he ever met. also 13 years old james potter who receives a binder for christmas because puberty is starting to do her job. pomfrey starts to tlk to him about some hormones potion who might help him. he is not sure if he wants to, though and he declines the offer for now
- 14 years old james who had his first period, and he excepted them to be very disphoric and awful but really they are alright and he doesn’t mind them. he feels very at ease with his body andmaybe he still faces predjudices sometimes but most of people just doesn’t care about what’s in between his legs ( well… not in a bigoted way at least, bc he definitely has the attention of many students ) including his beautiful lily, and he shouldn’t be so relieved of it bc it is only basic human decency but he still is.
- 15 years old james who is becoming an animagus and sees his is a stag and not a doe and when he changes back he is crying, because even if he is very confident in his validity and masculinity it feels so right and so good
- 16 years old james who is called transphobic slurs by snivellus and he is bout to hex the shit out of him but lily is faster and she just punches him in the face and yells at him. after five good minutes of yelling she turns to james and apologizes for fighting his fight and has an entire conversation with him without insulting him.
- 17 years old james who is dating lily and they are about to have sex for the first time and she warns him that actually she is trans too, but it’s less “seeable” than for james. james’s reaction is genuine excitement bc that’s another thing they have in common
- 18 years old james who is getting married with the love of his life in a perfect tuxedo and lily is gorgeous in her wedding dress and the world is in flames but they don’t care right now because they are in love and married
- 19 years old james who feels nauseous and hasn’t has his period in a while for some reason and holy fuck lily we are in trouble
- 20 years old james who is pregnant and proud but the world is cruel to men with an uterus and a baby in it. when his pregnancy starts to become more noticeable, he goes less and less outside and starts to feel confined. they finally go into hiding and he can’t go out at all. but finally he gives birth to a beautiful child who’s all he wants in life and is beautiful and he’s crying bc this feels so good
- 21 years old james who is the proud dad of little harry and have an happy married life with lily and he knows that war will be over soon and then we will have that forever in peace
