ok! i need to see 16 please! give me GUN
(send me a siken line and i'll write a mini fic inspired by it)
hi i LOVE u and you're my hero and a goddess and here is a gun just for you annie emmeline!!!!!
16. someone’s pulling a gun and you’re jumping in the middle of it. 
A voice drags Remus into consciousness. A shouting voice, to be specific; one that manages to cut through a strong dose of healing potions and the heavy sleep of a boy who’s just finished nearly clawing himself to death. 
It’s impressively loud, really, and if Remus currently had any control over miraculous things like moving his mouth or speaking, then he’d definitely be telling the posh prick to kindly shut the fuck up right about now. As it is, he can’t do much more than lie there and listen.
“I’m not fucking doing this every month, James,” the voice is saying. Shouting. “He- he’s just - do you know how this fucking feels? To have to stand by, and watch the person you… fuck, I mean look at him! What if- what if he-” 
The voice chokes off, and Remus frowns (or tries to). Something rattles painfully in his ribcage, right near the spot where bones are trying to mend themselves back together, where purple spreads across tender flesh. Where this voice, Sirius’ voice, hoarse and rough and cracked-open, tucks itself right into the mix. 
It takes herculean effort, but Remus manages to force his eyes half-open, right as Peter’s voice sounds from somewhere to his left. “Maybe we shouldn’t, erm-” he’s saying, shaky and nervous.“D’you guys think when we, you know, change…what if he…” 
The room goes quiet, and Remus’ stomach drops. Not because he fully understands what Peter’s talking about, but because he can feel it when Sirius tenses, even from across the room.
“What?” demands Sirius. His jaw is clenched, eyes blazing like he’s a sparked fuse ready to blast the whole castle down around them and delight in the wreckage. “What the fuck does that mean, you useless, spineless little-” 
“Okay, that’s enough!” James cuts in. Bravely (stupidly), he puts a hand on Sirius’ shoulder. If it were anyone else, they might’ve walked away with a torn-out bite of flesh, but as it is, Sirius only sighs, and shakes him off in a manner that’s not-quite-gentle. “Sirius, none of this is Peter’s fault. I know you’re scared, and we’re all tired, but you yelling isn’t helping Moony. And Pete…just, well- the point is that we are going to help him, alright? We’ll be there, and this won’t ever happen again, okay?”
Grey light streams through the curtains, and Remus wonders idly what time it is - what day it is. And he wonders what kind of person it makes him that he’s almost grateful for this, the ache in his body. For the moon and the bandages and the new scars and old. 
Because those are all things he has, and this is also a thing he has: Sirius, here, cheeks damp and shoulders trembling, here, for him. 
And he has James, pacing the floor. And Peter, twitching in the chair by his side. And Sirius, who’s so painfully beautiful even with dark circles and a rumpled shirt, turning to glare at Peter every few seconds, like he’s daring him to move even an inch closer, like he won’t be so forgiving as he was with James. 
Secretly - on days when his joints aren’t so bruised and the moon isn’t an echo rattling his skull - that look sends a spark through Remus. It’s something like his lazy smirk before mouthing off in class, or the easy flick of a smooth, pale wrist before his duelling partner is sent flying across the room. 
It’s like a warning, maybe, written in stocky bold letters: Get out now, before it’s too late. 
But it’s already too late for Remus. Has been for ages - going on years now. And he still remembers the exact moment he realised it: 
Third year, a Hogsmeade weekend, and a cushy buffer of two weeks on either side of the moon. They were all packed inside the Three Broomsticks, crammed in a sticky booth, sipping butterbeers, and cheering over the luck of a free day off. 
Remus remembers Sirius sitting across from him. He remembers watching Anya Patil and her pretty green eyes press her thigh into his, and the way she leaned in too close whenever Sirius spoke, laughed too loud when he made a joke. The way her hand trailed up his shoulder, in a way she undoubtedly meant to appear subtle. 
He remembers Sirius’ knee knocking against his own under the table. The sharp, swooping feeling that went through his stomach. He met Sirius’ gaze across the table, and they’d looked at each other for a long, silent moment. The sounds of the bar, their friends, it all dulled to nothing. 
There was something coiled and tense in Remus’ ribs, then. In the same spot Sirius has always held, from that moment on. Remus thought love was supposed to be slow and gradual - like in the sappy romance novels Lily’s always giving him. A soft fall, like into a riverbed or a pile of grass.
But this was Sirius Black. Everything from his cheekbones to his grin to his words were sharp like a knife. So it stands, Remus supposes, that loving him would be like a gut punch to the stomach. A reducto to the chest. It was someone pulling out a gun, and Remus thinking - Well, what’s one more shot to the ribs? For him? Alright, go on then. 
“I have to go,” Sirius had said then. He jumped up from the booth, Anya’s hand sliding awkwardly off his shoulder, and Remus’ stomach had sunk to the floor. 
This was worse than a moon; he’d take the broken bones and bruises and clawed-open flesh any day over losing Sirius’ friendship. He almost took it back, then, and said: Wait, I’m sorry, it doesn’t matter. I promise. It’s nothing - I’m nothing, we can just - 
But then: “We have to go,” Sirius amended. And then he’d grabbed Remus’ arm, yanked him up, and dragged him all the way out the door. Pushed him up against a cold brick wall, and kissed him with pillow soft lips and warm fingers that slipped under his jumper, curved into his side; right into the weak, tender spots between brittle bones and aching lungs and every ounce of reckless want Remus would allow himself to have. 
More than he should, probably. But then Sirius looks over at him now, and when he sees he's awake his face shifts from the glare he reserves for Peter, and the fear he reserves for James, and softens into something he maybe reserves for Remus alone. And when he grins, razor-sharp, it really doesn’t feel dangerous at all.

for ask game!!!:
16. What is your favorite character (or characters) to write for?
16. What is your favorite character (or characters) to write for?
oooh this is a hard one! i mean if i look at everything i've written so far in the marauders fandom, at one point or another i've written pov stories or scenes for sirius, james, peter, lily, remus, narcissa, dorcas, marlene, emmeline, regulus, andromeda, alice, pandora, dumbledore, and mary....so. quite a few.
i feel like just in general it's gotta be sirius, simply because he's my favorite of all time and i love getting into his head <3 but i've also really enjoyed writing for lily, narcissa, and regulus since they're all sort of in-between characters who have SOME canon info but not a ton, and i've gotten to play around a little with like. picking at the darker threads of their characterization in stories where they're meant to be sympathetic.
and then with dorcas, marlene, and emmeline, i've really loved writing them just because they're essentially blank slates that i've gotten to just take tiny bits of canon info and build entire stories out of. sort of feels like those cooking shows where ur given one ingredient and u have to decide what to make out of it, which is a lot of fun! but i'd hesitate to say any of them is my favorite to write for just since. they are such different characters across different stories, y'know?

The Tortured Poets Department as The Marauders Era (part one)
grab a drink, i'm about to talk your ear off
Fortnight - Regulus Black & James Potter
From Regulus' POV
I headcannon that for a short period James and Regulus were together in secret where only Sirius, Pandora and Alice knew about their relationship. They broke up during James sixth year and Regulus' fifth after Regulus started ignoring James because he was mad at James for "helping" Sirius run away. (he has a bit of a victim complex)
To me this song is Regulus looking back on his relationship with James. "I was a functioning alcoholic, til nobody noticed my new aesthetic" feels like something Regulus would definitely do. He puts on this big show just to see if anyone would notice but nobody ever does. It's the youngest sibling in him.
"All this to say I hope you're okay, but you're the reason, and no one here's to blame, but what about your quiet treason," is Regulus referring to Sirius running away. Regulus saw it as James choosing Sirius over him and although James didn't want to choose, if he had to, he would choose Sirius.
The chorus i think speaks for itself. "And for a fortnight there, we were forever, run into you sometimes, as about the weather, now you're in my backyard, turned into good neighbours, your wife waters flowers, i want to kill her" being Regulus' thoughts on the relationship. They thought they could've been forver but was quickly reminded of who they were and where they were. Now they hardly speak but because of circumstances (the war, the small small wizarding world) still have tabs on each other. And ofc Lily being James' wife and Regulus hating her. Possibly not only because she married James and because James loves her more then he ever loved him, but also because she's muggleborn.
In the second chorus it changes slightly to "My husband is cheating, I want to kill him" Regulus' "husband" is Voldemort and he's cheating in the war with the horcruxes. And ofc Regulus wants to kill him for bringing Kreacher into it.
Despite the fact that James moved on I don't think Regulus ever did. I think he tried, but what he had with James was the closest thing he had to having it all.
"I love you, it's ruining my life, i touched you for only a fortnight"
The Tortured Poets Department - Emmeline Vance & Remus Lupin after 1987
From Emmelines POV.
I am the only person who thinks this because I am the only person with this headcannon but I stand by this with my entire soul.
To give you the short version, in my headcannons Emmeline and Remus spend the majority of the 80s together because Emmeline is a talented healer and is asked by Dumbledore to take care of Remus after the full moons
They have a really solid friendship for the first half of the eighties until something happened in 1987 (which i won't bore you with) and it makes their entire relationship crumble
I am obviously looking at this song from a platonic prospective here. Lyrics such as "You smokes then age seven bars of chocolate, We declared Charlie Puth should be a bigger artist" reflects the late night conversations they had and the meaningless of it all. They weren't friends because they got along, they were friends because they were the only ones left from the younger ones of the Order. But the "who's going to hold you like me?" is also true. They were all each other had and it was enough and without it they were empty.
They were putting up with every demon in each others heads because it had to be worth it because if it wasn't then where would they be?
My Boy Only Breaks His Favourite Toys - Pandora Lovegood and Regulus Black
From Pandoras POV.
I feel like not many people speak about how damaging their friendship could've been for Pandora. Keeping in mind that Regulus had always been a purist and believed in Voldemort enough to keep photos and arrivals about him and his followers hung in his bedroom.
I think Pandora loved Regulus but Regulus was a hard person to love. There was only one way for Regulus to go and he was dragging Pandora down with him.
I think lines like "here we go again, voices in his head, called the rain the end our days of wild" could reflect how Pandora felt once Regulus got the mark or was close to getting the mark. I don't think Regulus would've ever told Pandora straight up that he was a death eater but I definitely think she knew anyway.
Regulus had a phase where he kept trying to get Pandora to leave. He didn't want to drag her down with him but it was either that or she goes. Without telling her why exactly he no longer wanted her around he was pulling her back and forth. She didn't want to leave. She wanted to go back to the time when they were best friends without consequences which i think shows with the outro. "Just say when, Id play again, he was my best friend down at the sandbox, i felt more when we played pretend"
Down Bad - Remus Lupin after 1981
I think this is very obvious but I will go into detail anyway
I don't think this is just about Remus' thoughts towards Sirius but also to James, Lily and Peter.
Remus (as much as he didn't want to) felt resentment towards his friends for what happened. He was gone with the werewolves and risking everything for them just for them to die anyway! It wasn't right for him to be mad at them but he was anyway. "Tell me I was the chosen one, showed me that this world is bigger than us, then send me back where i came from" is how i think he was feeling in terms of them. Remus spent the majority of his childhood thinking that he would never have any friends other then his parents. He meets the Marauders and is silly enough to think that everything would be okay just for him to end up friendless again at the age of 21
And then we have Sirius which... of corse this is about him.
"I loved your hostile take-overs, encounters closer and closer, all your indecent exposers, how dare you say that it's? I'll build you a fort on some planet, where they can all understand it, how dare you think it's romantic, leaving me safe and stranded? Cause fuck it i was in love, so fuck you if i can't have us"
The words kinda speak for themselves
So Long, London - Mary MacDonald leaving the wizarding world
I don't think Mary is speaking/thinking about one particular person here but the entire wizarding world as a whole. Those she loved and didn't.
Being a Muggleborns would be hard enough to to be one of the only ones in your house must’ve been worse. Lily had Severus to help her navigate the wizarding world while Mary had no one and while also being friends with Sirius, James, Peter and Remus who all were from wizarding families it was easy for her to feel left out in the world.
With such events such as Mulciber’s attack on her and seeing the constant attacks on muggle families she felt unwelcomed. “I saw in my mind fairy lights through the mist, I kept calm and carried the weight of the riff” is Mary putting up with all of the bigotry from her classmates because she saw the magic that the world had to offer. She loves her friends and loves being a witch. She loves Hogwarts and Quidditch and she wants the world to accept her but no matter what she does they won't
I think it also sucked for her to see her muggleborn friends thrive. Lily became head girl and married James and had Harry. Dirk also found love and became quidditch captain. Dahlia found a way to incorporate magic into her muggle job (preforming) and also found love. Meanwhile Mary couldn't seem to get a break. The lyrics "you swore that you loved me, but where were the clues? i died on the altar waitin for the proof" isn't her speaking to someone but more so like a wizard god (not dumbledore) She's saying "where's my reason for staying? where's the love of my life? where's the passion that's going to make this worth it?"
The Bridge is her as she leaves. In my hcs she leaves right before everyone joins the Order. She was considering it but decided against it and left while leaving five letters behind. One to James & Lily, Dirk, Marlene, Remus and Dahlia & Camelia explaining herself.
"And you say I abandoned the ship, but i was going down with it"
"my friends said it isn't right to be scared"
and the chorus
"how much sad did you think i had, did you think i had in me? how much tragedy? just how low did you, think i'd go fore id self-implode? fore i'd have to go be free?"
But Daddy I Love Him - Andromeda Black & Ted Tonks
From Andromedas POV
Do I even need to explain this?
I feel like I should just for the sake of the post but I'll just feel like I'm mansplaining (says the person who isn't even a man)
LIKE ITS JUST SO THEM
"I just learned these people only raise you, to cage you" is sooooo the black family
"Dutiful daughter, all my plans were laid" "Growinf up precocious sometimes means, not growing up at all" LIKE HELLO???? ANDY IS THAT YOU???
"stay away from her, the saboteurs protested too much" being Bellatrix trying to stop them because she knew how bad it could end but Andy not caring
The only thing that doesn't match is that Andromedas family does not come around at all (looking at you Bellatrix "let me kill my niece" Lestrange
BUT OTHER THEN THAT ITS PERFECT
Fresh Out The Slammer - Sirius Black & Harry Potter
Listennnnn, I know we were all thinking wolfstar and trust me i was half finished writing about them to this song but this is Sirius and Harry.
"Now pretty baby, im running back home to you, fresh out the slammer i know who my first call will be to" speaks for itself i think. One of the first things Sirius did after escaping Azkaban was seeing Harry at private drive. He didn't need to be there, he knew Peter wasn't there. He was there because he had to see Harry. He had to remember who he was doing this all for
The pre-chorus being Sirius while he was locked up. "In the shade of how he was feeling" could represent Sirius spending a big part of his time in Azkaban thinking about what Harry must think of him.
"As i said in my letters, now that I know better, I will never lost my baby again" Sirius always being there for Harry even while on the run. He continued sending letters and even stayed in a cave just to be close to him
And "My friends tried but i wouldn't hear it, watch me daily disappearing, for just one glimpse of his smile" could be so many instances. Sirius going to Harry's Quidditch games, Sirius going to king's cross, Sirius staying in the cave, Sirius going to the Dursleys
"Now we're at the starting line, I did my time," being Sirius and Harry both thinking that the worse was behind them once they were reunited. Sirius offering Harry to live with him and Harry accepting immediately. All they wanted was each other and the family that they brought to each other.
The entire song is Sirius anticipating the life he could now have with Harry after Azkaban. After killing Peter all Sirius wanted to be was a good Godfather to Harry and he was ready to take it the first moment he got.
"No matter what i've done, it wouldn't matter anyway, ain't no way i'm gonna screw up now that i know what's at stake here."
"It's going to be alright, I did my time"
Florida!!! - Lucinda Talkalot leaving the wizarding world
This is going to be another one that only I think
Florida!!! is about escaping your issues and having a fresh start. I can see Mary being for this song also but I think it suits Lucinda's mindset a lot more
For anyone who doesn't know, Lucinda Talkalot was the Slytherin Quidditch Captain during 1976 and everything Im about to say is purely based on my own headcannons. But let me cook
In my headcannons Lucinda is a muggleborn and quickly gets tired of the wizarding world. She's sick of the bigotry and drama of it all and preferred her life as a muggle much more. Therefore she moves to America and doesn't look back, loving the rest of her life as a Muggle
Unlike Mary, Lucinda isn't doing this sadly. Mary didn't want to leave but felt the need to to keep herself and her family safe while Lucinda just doesn't want to be a witch anymore
I have a hc where it's common in the wizarding world to get married and start families early because of how small the wizarding population actually is. Unless you marry a muggle, someone from a different country (sometimes continent) or someone who is either 7 years older or younger then you in the wizarding world it's expected that you'll meet your future spouse while at school. The line "my friends all smell like weed or little babies" to me indicates that from Lucindas POV where her muggle friends are being young while her wizard friends are growing up too fast and making her feel unbalanced
Lucinda just needed a new start as many of us do but felt trapped in her life with the wizarding world attached to her. "yes in haunted, but i'm feeling just fine, all my girls got their lace and their crimes, and your cheating husband disappeared, well, no one asks any questions here" is her basking in the idea that no one is going to know anything about her once she leaves. While Mary was running away from something, Lucinda was running towards.
Despite being a muggleborn, i don't think Lucinda cares too much about the war. I think she had the mindset of "so long as they're not doing anything to me i don't care" She justified this mindset through her being in Slytherin and deciding that being quiet about the war was her best chance of survival. Because of this I don't think she properly digested the war for what it was. She left seeing the war as nothing but "wizard drama"
The bridge "I need to forget so take me to florida, i've got some regrets, i'll bury them in florida. tell me i'm despicable, say it's unforgivable, at least the dolls are beautiful, fuck me up, florida" Is her buried down guilt for leaving whatever friends she did have in a war Lucinda never let herself know how bad but she can't find it in her to go back. She just didn't want to.
Guilty as Sin? - Amelia Bones & Pandora Lovegood
Amelias POV
Oh closeted Amelia Bones who is deeply in love with Pandora Lovegood but never tells anyone other then her brother because she grew up in such a strict household in the 70s my beloved <3
But seriously we did all hear the queer undertones right? right?????
And the religious language that's used throughout the song??? y'all HAVE to be seeing the vision
And this is another headcannon that only I seem to have and I think I explained it enough (it isn't that complex tbh) but let me go into some more detail if that's okay with you
So i hc Amelia and Edgar Bones to be from a very well respected family but their grandfather nearly lost everything for the Bones family by being a deadbeat and an alcoholic. Because of this their parents are extremely strict on their children. They're obsessed with being the perfect family and "succeeding" as parents by having their children be and do great things
Their older brother Jamie gets eveything right. He becomes a healer, marries his "highschool sweetheart", has three daughters, all that jazz. Edgar (who is Amelias twin and seven minuets younger) is a mess. He fails so badly that his parents have to lie to everyone about how he died for damage control (but that's another story) And Amelia is somewhere in the middle. She becomes Head Girl, she's very smart, she starts working for the Ministry but shes a lesbian and her parents would not like that one bit
Amelia is just as obsessed as being perfect as her parents are. She wants to make them proud and be the daughter they wanted and knows the fact that she's a lesbian will make them turn on her. It doesn't matter how perfect she is.
Amelia falls in love with Pandora while they're at school and never falls in love with anyone else and it kills her that they can't be together
Guilty as Sin? is Amelias guilt when it comes to loving Pandora. Not only does she have them guilt of loving her best friend who is with someone else (Xenophilius) but also a girl
"I dream of crackin locks, throwin my life to the wolves or ocean rocks" is Amelia considering what would happen if she was to be honest with her feelings. If she told Pandora how she felt she would risk throwing everything away
"Someone told me there's no such thing as bad thoughts, only your actions talk" reminds me of something i learnt while at school. I went to a Catholic school and while there we talked about how the church views gay people. We were told that The Catholic Church has no problem with people being gay so long as they don't act on it. Here Amelia could be repeating that statement to herself as a safety net. So long as she doesn't do anything she's still perfect.
All this being said, she's still just a girl who's in love with her best friend and she spends her entire life waiting for it to be okay; for Pandora to come to her. "If it's make-believe, why does it feel like a vow we'll both uphold somehow?" Is Amelia still hoping and still waiting for Pandora to want her back
The bridge "If long suffering propriety is what they want from me, they don't know how you've haunted me so stunningly, i choose you and me religiously" reminds me of something i wrote for Amelia and Pandora a while ago. Here's a little part of it:
Tell her, the voice in her mind screamed. Tell her everything. That this is more than friendship for you. That you love her the way she loves Xenophilius. Tell her every single thing your rotten mind thinks. Tell her that she’s the only reason why you’re still alive. Tell her that she’s kind and caring and beautiful. Tell her that she brightens your day just by smiling and that everytime you see her sad you feel like carving out a hole in your heart. Tell her about all the things you would do for her if only she’d give you the chance. Tell her about all of the times you fell harder and harder for her eyes. Tell her that she is loved. Tell her that you love her and that you will always love her no matter what she does. She could scream at you, she could ignore you, she could kill someone, or hurt someone, or burn the entire world to the ground and you wouldn’t even blink. Tell her that she could choose every single slytherin, every single boy over you and you would still run whenever she came calling. Tell her that no matter what she is loved, because she is Pandora Lovegood and you are Amelia Bones and there is not one universe where she is not the love of your life, even if there isn’t one where you are the love of hers.
And essentially that bridge is exactly what I was trying to come across with that. In the end, she'll choose Pandora if only Pandora would let her.
And ofc the chorus speaks for itself
"What if he's written mind on my upper thigh only in my mind? one slip and fallin back into the hedge maze, oh what a way to die, i keep recalling things we never did, messy top lip kiss, how i long for our trysts, without ever touchin my skin, how can i be guilty as sin?"
Who's Afraid Of Little Old Me? - Severus Snape
There are so many people who this song could've been for in my mind so let's go through some honorable mentions before we get to Severus
My first thought while listening was Juliette Wilkes and how dangerous she could be behind the scenes. To me Juliette was a complete bitch. She was heartless but her reason for being was her desire to be loved. For whoever reason she knew she wasn't getting the happily ever after she was promised at childhood so she gave people a reason to hate her. She fought and bit and bitched and laughed.
I next went to Peter Pettigrew. Peter who was constantly overlooked by his peers and teachers, who pulled off the perfect betrayal because "who would be afraid of little old Peter?" I once compared Peter to the Earth in my writing and u stand by that statement wholeheartedly. Peter, like the earth, was collapsing in on himself because of the lack of care from others. I think the beginning of the bridge speaks the most for Peter.
We also have the obvious choice of Sirius Black speaking mostly to his family. Sirius being mad at what they did and who they made him.
There was also Dorcas Meadowes going on a killing spree after the death of Marlene. To me this song could've easily been Dorcas speaking to Regulus, Evan and Barty. Asking the question of if they only were friends with her because they thought she'd do nothing. Did they think she would sit by and let them get away with it? She's a very close second.
Finally theres Lily Evans, the muggleborn who killed The Dark Lord and ended the first wizarding world. Do I even need to say anything else?
It even could've been Remus Lupin if he had embraced his villain origin story
But despite all of that I think Severus takes the cake with this one and I think the best way to explain myself is to tell you exactly what I relate some of the lyrics to in a fast and speedy way.
"If you wanted me dead, you should've just said, nothing makes me feel more alive" Snape knowing more dark curses in his first year then the seventh years. I don't see Snape as a helpless victim to the Marauders. He fought back and I believed he liked that. He armed himself with the spells he created.
"The Scandal was contained, the bullet had just grazed, at all costs, keep your good name" The Prank. I've ranted and raved about how the prank meant nothing to The Marauders and how everything stayed the same for them but for Snape? Dude was nearly murdered by a werewolf and things just carried on as normal!! Would you be normal after that?
"Is it a wonder I broke? Let's hear one more joke" they didn't call him Snivellus Snape with affection
"I was tame, I was gentle til the circus life made me mean" "the circus life" being the wizarding world. the Marauders jokes, the friendship with Lily dissolving, the pressure of the death eaters and Malfoy
"Don't you worry folks, we took out all her teeth" Dumbledore constantly telling people during the second war that Snapes no longer a death eater. "don't worry, voldemort killed the women he loves so he ain't going back lol" (he didn't say it like that but you get my point)
"So tell me everything is not about me, but what if it is?" Severus being a spy for both sides while really just being a spy for Dumbledore. Severus the one who killed Dumbledore. Severus the one who led Hogwarts during its darkest days. Severus who was there when Pettigrew got away. Severus who taught the chosen one occlemancy (idk if i spelt that right) Severus who died willingly to "help" The Dark Lord. Severus who gave the chosen one the right information at the right time while on his death bed
"Say they didn't do it to hurt me, but what if they did?" Voldemort, Dumbledore, Lily, Lucius, The Marauders (tho they definitely meant to hurt him), i could go on.
"I wanna snarl and show you just how disturbed this has made me" Save Charity and let your self go. Fight McGonagall or you'll be found out. You have to put whatever you had with James aside for the sake of the world. Don't actually fight in the battle of the seven potters!! you can't let them know who's side you're on. Betray everyone you've ever known for the sake of the greater good. And when Voldemort is about to kill you don't tell him everything, don't kill him first. you cant. your job is to die for the cause. you don't get closure.
"You wouldn't last an hour in the asylum where they raised me" His abusive father. Slytherin house.
"Isn't that what they all said? that i'll sue you if you step on my lawn, that i'm fearsome and i'm wretched and i'm wrong" Severus' life as a teacher. I don't think there was one kid who actually liked him.
"Put narcotics into all of my songs, and what's why you're still singin along" to be reflects everyone constantly going to him for help. Bellatrix and Narcissa. Voldemort. Dumbledore. Even Harry trusted Snape enough to tell him about Sirius in his desperation. When worse comes to worse they're all willing to put their pride aside.
"Who's afraid of little old me? you should be" From a poor halfblood boy with no friends to the right hand man of both Dumbledore and Voldemort
The best way to explain why I picked Snape over everyone else is because while for the them I can relate certain parts of the song to them, with Severus the entire song screams him.
I Can Fix Him (No Really I Can) - Dorcas Meadowes friendship with Regulus Black, Barty Crouch Jr & Evan Rosier
From Dorcas' POV
Y'all ever had a friend who you've known since you were young and while you were growing up they just kept getting worse and worse? Dorcas Meadowes has
Similar to Pandora I don't think we talk enough about how Dorcas' must've been feeling as Regulus, Barty and Evan got closer to the dark side
While i hc that Pandora happily let go of Barty and Evan and came to terms with them becoming Death Eaters quickly with Dorcas it was a much different story.
I think Dorcas would've wanted to hold onto them a lot more. In my headcannons Pandora is the eldest of the skittles and is a year above Dorcas and Evan. Barty and Regulus are a year below them. I think Pandora had other friends besides just them. (Amelia, Edgar, Fabian, Gideon, Benjy and Caradoc who were all in the same year as her) but Dorcas didn't. Those boys were her closest friends and although she knew the path they were going down she was still holding onto the fact that they might change their minds
"The jokes that he told across the bar, were revolting and far too loud" being anytime Dorcas heard them say anything against muggles or muggleborns. When he heard Evan in class agreeing with Bruce Mulciber a little too much for her liking
During the time where Evan, Barty and Regulus were becoming more and more bad I also hc the time where Dorcas and Marlene get together. So Dorcas starts hanging out with Marlene and her friends a little more. "They shake their heads sayin God help her, when i tell em he's my man, but your good Lord doesn't need to lift a finger, I can fix him, no really, I can" is Dorcas defending the boys whenever they become the topic of conversation. She goes through a phase of "you don't know them like i do"
The bridge is Dorcas' hope, thinking that what she was doing and saying (though i don't think she did/said a lot tbh) was working. "Good boy, that's right, come close" is her inner monologue when they do anything right and "Trust me, I can handle me a dangerous man" is her response to people showing genuine concern for her.
The ending "Woah, maybe I cant" is the realisation and to me the exact thought that went through her mind when she found out that they joined Voldemort.
loml - Emmeline Vance & Edgar Bones
From Emmelines POV
There are a total of 5 Edgarline shippers and i live to serve them and them only
And this song just screamsssss them after Edgar dies
In my hcs Emmeline and Edgar break up before Edgar dies but they do so with the intention of getting back together once the war is over and they're both in better places. Their survivors guilt and the pressure of Edgar being an auror and Emmeline being a healer was getting too much for them and when they started taking their grief out on each other they decided to hit pause.
To me the beginning perfectly represents their break up. "Who's gonna stop us from waltzing back into rekindled flames" being their desperation to be together again. "We were just kiss babe, I said "I don't mind, it takes time" i thought i was better safe than starry eyed" is their reasoning for breaking up. Putting themselves and the war before their relationship
The line "you blew in with the winds of fate" could be interpreted two way and both of them i think match Edgar during the war. The first one is the effects of drinking as "the winds of fate" can be utilised as british slang for "a strong drink" I hc that Edgar struggled with alcoholism during the war and especially after the death of his two best friends Fabian and Gideon Prewett.
The second one is that the person is fading or being taken away by the power of destiny which I also hc Edgar to have struggled with. As I said while speaking about Amelia, the Bones parents were very strict on who they wanted their children to be and although Edgar was terrible at keeping up to his parents expectations he was still constantly trying. The only reason he joined the Order was because he felt it was his responsibility to as an auror and the only reason he became an auror was to please his parents.
The bridge is Emmeline thinking on their relationship after Edgar had died. "You shit talked me under the table, talkin rings and talkin cradles, I wish I could unrecall, how we almost had it all" reflects on how they really thought that they would be together in the end. At not one point after breaking up did either of them consider the fact that it was truly over.
"Dancing phantoms on the terrace, are they second hand embarrassed, that i can't get out of bed, cause something counterfeits dead?" The phantoms are the past versions of Emmeline and Edgar, looking at their future selves and seeing how their "fake breakup" is now dead. the break is permanent and Edgar died without Emmeline as his partner. Emmelines wonders if their past selves would be embarrassed that they let their relationship end the way it did
The first chorus is Emmeline looking back on them after his death. "If you know it in one glimpse, it's legendary, you and I go from one kiss to getting married," is their relationship while it was good. "still alive, killing time at the cemetery, never quite buried," is them during the war before their breakup while they were still clinging on. "In your suit and tie, in the nick of time, you low down boy, you stand up guy, your holy ghost, you told me in the love of your life,"
In cannon, when Edgar is mentioned it's said that "they got him and his family." We know that by this Moody couldn't mean Edgars parents and siblings like we hc with Marlene because Amelia is still alive at the point. To get around this I make the ending of Edgars life way too complicated and messy but good for the plot.
As I mentioned before both Emmeline and Edgar are suffering with their mental health and Edgar is not handling himself well at all and is drinking a lot. One night after Edgar and Emmeline had broken up Amelia takes him out but has to leave early because she got called into work. Edgar stays, get smashed and meets a muggle women. Long story short he gets her pregnant during a one night stand. She doesn't know if she wants to keep it or not but Edgar tells her that no matter what he'll support her decision. If she chooses to keep the child, he would be in their life.
He tells Emmeline all about this as soon as he can and makes sure that she knows that he doesn't want it to change anything between them and for the most part Emmeline agrees. I bring this up because I think this moment is represented in the second chorus. "All those plot twists and dynamite, Mr Steal Your Girl, then make her grey, you said i'm the love of your life"
The ending is Emmeline never being able to let go of their relationship because of the lack of closure. I do hc that Emmeline finds love again, and in her lifetime will find herself a wife and step mother a child. But even up to her death she will always be thinking of him because they weren't supposed to end. Edgar was killed, taken from her before they got to reach their full potential. Their story wasn't over but half of the chapters were ripped out.
"Oh, what a valiant roar, what a bland goodbye, the coward claimed he was a lion, Im combing through the braids of lord, "I'll never leave" "Never mind" our field of dreams, engulfed in fire, your arsons match, your somber eyes, and i'll still see it until i die, you're the loss of my life"
I Can Do It With A Broken Heart - James Potter after his breakup with Regulus Black
As I said earlier, I do headcannon that they were together at some point. In my headcannons James and Regulus start secretly dating in their 4/5th year and nobody knows apart from Sirius and Pandora (who were told) and Alice (who found out)
They broke up during James' sixth year and Regulus' fifth. Regulus got mad at James for "helping" Sirius leave and basically just started ignoring him. They had a few slip ups (make out sessions instead of talking) but ultimately broke up
James was obviously upset but considering nobody but Sirius, Pandora and Alice even knew they were dating he had to continue as if nothing ever happened
This song was actually hard to match with someone but I think the overall vibe screams James even if it isn't about Regulus but something else (for this example i will be referring to their breakup tho)
The line "Breaking down, I hit the floor, all the prices of me shattered as the crowd was chanting, "more"" reminds me of Quidditch or just the overall appearance of him and how he carried himself
"I'm so obsessed with him, but he avoids me" is James' entire personality while Regulus was refusing to speak to him and the line "I keep finding his things in drawers, crucial evidence i didn't imagine the whole thing," is James reminding himself that they actually did have a relationship as there's little to no evidence of it
There isn't much more detail to go into this song. It's pretty straight forward
The Smallest Man To Ever Live - Lily Evans & Severus Snape
From Lilys POV
oh snily... i will never be able to figure out how i feel about you
You can see this song as romantic or platonic snily but personally I will be referring to them as friends only as I don't think that Lily ever had any romantic feelings for Snape. I also don't think we talk enough about the FRIENDSHIP. y'all they were best friends😭😭 why does the marauders fandom act like they never were???
Starting from the top we have "Was any of it true?" being Lily asking Severus what if their friendship was real. We really never talk enough about how Snape always knew that Lily was a muggleborn yet still joined Voldemort, knowing how he felt about muggles and muggleborns
I do not believe that Lily would forgive Severus. I don't think he's a bad person but for Lily I feel like everything was a bit too personal. So the chorus "I don't even want you back, i just want to know, if rusting my sparkling summer was the goal, and i don't miss what we had, but could someone give, a message to the smallest man who ever lived?" is Lily wanting closure for their friendship and wanting answers but that only. All Severus could do was apologise but she didn't want that. After he called her a mid blood it was past apologies for her
The bridge is what reminds me of them the most. Oh the bridge... let's go through it together
"Were you sent by someone who wanted me dead?" and "Were you writing a book? were you a sleeper cell spy?" being Lily asking Severus why he told Voldemort about the prophecy
"In fifty years, will all this be disclassified?" More like in 17 years. Will she ever know what his true intentions were?
"It wasn't sexy once it wasn't forbidden" is Severus thinking that Lily was different to other muggleborns. Lily asking if her being muggleborn and his feeling of superiority over her one of the reasons why he liked her
"I would've died for your sins, instead i just died inside" and outside. Like Dorcas, Lily had a "you don't know him like I do" phase.
"And you deserve prison, but you won't get time, you'll slide into inboxes and slip through the bars" How Severus never went to Azkaban for being a death eater because of Dumbledore
"You said normal girls were boring" normal girls being muggles
"And in plain sight you hid, but you are what you did, and i'll forget you, but i'll never forgive, the smallest man who ever lived" being Lily in the afterlife after finding out the truth
The Alchemy - Marlene McKinnon & Dorcas Meadowes
From Dorcas' POV
Dorlene my favourite sports rivals to lovers <3
This song has a lot of american football references in it and today we are going to pretend that they're about Quidditch.
In my hcs Dorcas has "hated" Marlene since their first day of school where when waiting tj be sorted Dorcas thought that she was going to be called up but Marlene was instead (since McKinnon is before Meadowes in the alphabet) and ever since Dorcas had been bitter because Marlene had always been so unpredictable
To me this is Dorcas as she realises that she's in love with Marlene which is represented in the second verse "Hey, you, what if i told you we're cool? that child's play back in school, is forgiven under my rule"
I have no proof but i am so certain that "He jokes that it's heroin, but this time with an E" is something that Marlene McKinnon has said. I'm so confident.
I headcannon Marlene as a Ravenclaw and that she became the captain of her Quidditch team during her fifth year, won the cup and in her sixth year captioned Hogwarts first all women's Quidditch team. I have this whole story of the Quidditch season during their sixth year (which you can read btw it's called the epic highs and lows of hogwarts quidditch on ao3 by atlasdoe) and although it doesn't have a happy ending the bridge is what would've happened if they did from Dorcas pov. "Shirts off and your friends lift you up over their heads, beer stickin to the floor, chris chanted cause they said, "there was no chance tehing to be the greatest in the league" where's the trophy? he just comes runnin over to me"
"Cause the sign on your heart, said it's still reserved for me, honestly, who are we to fight the alchemy?" is soooo dorlene i could cry. This song is just the right amount of happiness that they deserve
Clara Bow - Harry Potter
Oh Harry, being in the Marauders fandom has made you so much more tragic for me
The poor orphan boy who in the span of a day went from a nobody to the chosen one.
"You look like Clara Bow," "You look like Stevie Nicks" "You look like Taylor Swift" is Harry constantly being told he looks like his father but with his mothers eyes
The first verse saying "In this light, remarkable, All your life, did you know, you'd be picked like a rose?" reminds me of Harry entering the Leaky Caldron for the first time and having all those strangers be so eager to shake his hand. Being "picked like a rose" is him being the chosen one but even before he was known as it.
The second verse, "In '75, the hair and lips, crowd goes wild at her fingertips, half moonshine, a full eclipse" is Harry being told about his parents while they were at school. Him listening to Sirius and Remus sing his parents praises and only dreaming to be as loved as they were
The outro, "In this light, we're lovin it, you've got edge. she never did, the futures bright, dazzling" is Harry after winning the war. The "edge" that his parents never had allowed him to survive. His future is bright now that they know he has one
The Chorus is the repeated expectations that Harry has to live up to "This town is fake but you're the real thing, breath of fresh air through smoke rings, take the glory, give everything, promise to be dazzling" is what he was told during his first few years at Hogwarts while. "The crown is stained, but you're the real queen, flesh and blood amongst war machine, you're the new god we're worshipping, promise to be dazzling" is what he was told as the war became more serious.
I did not expect to write this much but oh well. PLEASE TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK!!! <3

20 questions for Fic Writers
Thanks for tagging me @theresthesnitch, I love seeing everyone's answers on this!
1. How many works do you have on AO3?
40.
2. What's your total AO3 word count?
177,784. (A couple of thousand of those are actually by @eemolu, my partner in writing taller than the trees).
3. What fandoms do you write for?
These days, almost exclusively HP, though I've written a few little oneshots for Lois & Clark.
4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
1. The Great James Potter (167 kudos). Jily, canon, 7th year Lily POV "enemies"-to-lovers, 8.7k.
2. AO3 Is Down (149 kudos). Jily Muggle AU where they work for AO3. As cracky as it sounds. XD 1.4k.
3. As If By Magic (139 kudos). Jily, canon, 7th year slow burn, 34k.
4. Inescapable (138 kudos). Jily, soulmates, Hogwarts across the years, 4.2k.
5. Are You Experienced? (135 kudos). Hogwarts Jily go to a Muggle concert for their first date. 12.6k.
5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?
Absolutely!! Comments make my day and I always want people to know I appreciate them!!
6. What's the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
Probably Trapped - Emmeline Vance's last fight with the Death Eaters, told from her POV.
7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
Are You Experienced? is definitely one of the fluffiest!
8. Do you get hate on fics?
I wouldn't say I've ever got full-blown hate, but I've got a few negative comments, most of them for writing Sirius/Lily. Stuff like 'Sirius would never do that to James' - even when it's a story where the Sirius/Lily part is fake dating and James is actually aware of it and endorsing it. xD The mind boggles.
9. Do you write smut. If so, what kind?
I write some smut, yes! M/F, mostly vanilla stuff. :p
10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?
Not really! Though one day I want to finish that fic where Lily is a L&C fan. xD
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Not that I know of! Who would be interested in stealing my fics? Lol. xD
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
I have! My old Remadora story Over Spilt Coffee (FF.net link here - I should put it up on AO3) was translated to Russian, from my own Greek translation. And there was also a translation of Birthday in Spanish but the link doesn't seem to be working.
13. Have you ever cowritten a fic before?
A couple! Apart from taller than the trees which I've already mentioned, I'd cowritten a fic for L&C with my friend Raquel.
14. What's your all-time favorite ship?
JILY!!!
15. What's a WIP you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?
My old WIP Through Times Of War. It was my attempt to write Book 7 before DH came out. I still remember my plans for it, I had an ending and everything, but I'm just not interested in that era anymore.
16. What are your writing strengths?
A good grasp of grammar, vocabulary, flow - the technical aspects. My writing always looks very polished.
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
Coming up with a good plot/what happens next.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?
I've done it once - had Fleur and her family fight in French about Bill, in listening range of the Weasleys. I think that, if you're going to write dialogue in another language for a fic, it has to serve a narrative purpose. I don't like it when characters speak in another language or drop random words/endearments just to show off the writer's headcanons about where they're from.
19. First Fandom you wrote for?
Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman.
20. Favorite fic you've ever written?
Depends on your definition of favourite, but the one I'm proudest of is probably Are You Experienced?

i am thinking evil thoughts and the evil thoughts involve remus hooking up with someone else during his pov chapter to try and prove to himself that he isn't completely gone for sirius/to remind himself that they are having Just Casual Sex.... like in a sort of "you need to get over urself, sirius doesn't love you in that way" way...the angsty fallout from remus sleeping with someone else?? maybe he would say sirius' name during sex?? ooooo boy. am i daydreaming about angst. (as if oao isn't already angsty enough lmao)
also thinking about past remus realizing he was in love with sirius and then watching him be together with emmeline for 7 fucking years... yeah. yeahhhhh the pain and suffering. poor remus :,(( he is my sweet baby boy . and he suffers so much ...
omg anon.... going in for maximum angst i see!! i adore <3 i cannot confirm or deny ur evil thoughts xxxx but i can offer you this snippet:
“Who’s Sirius?” says the voice behind him. Remus freezes. “He your boyfriend or something?”
:-))))))
poor precious boy;;; he is capital s suffering. his pov keeps bringing tears 2 my eyes bc he's just so :-((( happier days are coming for him tho i PROMISE <33 (eventually)

I've been thinking of Everlong a lot lately and so I'm set for a reread.
I'm curious though, is Emmeline aware of how deep James' feelings are for Lily? She clearly doesn't like her since the beginning, but I felt it was more of her thinking Lily wanted to be near James than James actually wanting to be near Lily. Sorry, it's been a while and I may not remember correctly! But, if you have a chance maybe to share some Emmeline pov. We don't like her, but I wonder if maybe James behaved to be obvious from her pov of when they were alone. 🤷🏻‍♀️
Hello Anon,
thank you for your message, apologies it has taken a bit of time to reply i didn't find getting into Emmeline's headspace came naturally.
She wasn't aware of much. Such was the personality I gave her she was focused on herself not on the others so much...
I have actually worked on 3 different versions of this and they all came out with one clear message, she's boring. I made her that way, I didn't flesh her out, I wanted it but it was hard to get into her.
I hope this helps. sorry it's a bit crap💞
Waking up to the sound of the front door clicking closed Emmeline groans, the simple action of turning her head on the pillow waking a herd of elephants inside her skull.
When she stumbles through to the living room, she’s met with the sight of Marianne sprawled over the cream sofa, still wearing last night’s clothes, “I thought you were staying at James’, is he here? How was the party?”
Curling into the vacant space beside her best friend, she winces, fragments of the night before coming back to her as the hangover fog clears ever so slowly.
“Too many free drinks, he was a mess, I feel horrendous, where—”
Rachel appears from her bedroom, bright eyed and well rested, amusement coating her question, “Good nights?”
As Marianne regales them with tales of her night, Emmeline sips from the glass of water presented to her, closing her eyes to ward off the dizziness that comes with sitting upright.
With a cleansing wipe to her face, the grime of last night’s make-up is not all that comes away, recalling the utter mortification she felt watching her boyfriend emptying his stomach on the street.
What had possessed him to chase after Sirius, the animosity between them had been building all night — longer, she knows — but he’d seem resigned to let it go, insistent on sharing the taxi as if everything were fine.
Barely a glance her way when he stumbled away from the building, the cabbie had been quick to offer an ultimatum, get out and join them or leave without.
Chat between Emmeline and James 10.02am
Emmeline – What happened last night? You were an awful state.
Chat between Emmeline and James 10.23am
Emmeline – Two missed calls and not responding to my messages, don’t you think you should explain yourself?
Chat between Emmeline and James 10.57am
Emmeline – call me back please, are you ok?
James has been brooding for the past week or so, since they got back from Austria, she assumed this was an adrenaline crash, post competition come down… Last night he was on the charm offensive, bright smiles as they danced and mingled with the other sportspeople.
It frustrates her, how he doesn’t see it. It’s when he’s around those friends, they should be celebrating him, adoring him, and while they showed up, they don’t get him.
Chat between James and Emmeline 12.18pm
James P – I’m sorry.
Emmeline – that’s it?
James P – I’m in Surrey at mum and dads, can we talk later?
Emmeline – what time will you be back?
James – I don’t know, I think I’d feel better staying here tonight.
phone call -
Emmeline -
Are you serious?
J -
Emme, I’m so sorry.
E -
You said that much already…
J –
I drank too much, maybe because I had a few on Friday as well… It was a mistake.
E –
Did you fight with Sirius?
J –
Today?
E –
NO! Last night, he’s been off with you all week, and then… you stormed after him, I heard shouting before your public indecency.
J –
It was hardly indecency, and it’s not like I planned it.
E –
You’re a public figure, it’s embarrassing and you better hope there weren’t witnesses filming!
J –
That’s really not—
E –
Whatever. So, you fought with your friend and made me look like an idiot and I ended the night alone and now you’re hiding from him and not coming back to the city? Did you hit him?
J –
JESUS, no! I would never— I— It had nothing to do with Sirius— well, it did, sort of— not really… Look, I— I’m having a bad day. Please can we talk about this later, preferably in person?
E –
I’m not a total monster, you sound terrible and I’m guessing you have a horrendous hangover.
J –
My head is killing me.
E –
Fine. You can make it up to me tomorrow. Get some rest.
J –
Thanks, Emme, bye
The door bangs closed behind her on her return to the lounge, Marianne raising a brow in question presses pause on the television, “Why are your panties still twisted?”
Emmeline leans on the arm of the sofa, arms folded in front of her as she her attention centred on the frozen scene on the screen. “I had expected more from this day than a hungover boyfriend and Married At First Sight, there’s only a few weeks until uni starts back up and — ugh, I’m just annoyed.”
Looking instantly revived Marianne swings her feet to the ground, “I’ll rally the troops, Barry and Timothy are always up for a Sunday pub lunch, and I for one could murder a roast.”
For the rest of the day Emmeline puts last night and the unsatisfying conversation with James out of her mind, focussing on retelling only highlights of the glamourous event when questioned.
She avoids reaching out for the rest of the day, hoping he’ll parse that she’s still unhappy and expecting him to make efforts to connect. However, when she wakes the next morning, the only message she has is from Rachel confirming that she’s up for a yoga class today.
Was he truly so hungover that he just passed out for the day? He sounded tired on the phone, weary, he hadn’t even explained why he had ended up at his parents, or really explained anything at all.
Emmeline had expected humility, an apology, maybe a brief tale of why he’d bolted after his friend… But he said it wasn’t really to do with him, perhaps he fought with his parents and sought advice from Sirius, that would explain why he went to them yesterday.
Chat between James and Emmeline 6.29pm
James P – hey, back in the city. Need to rehearse with the guys tonight. Are you free tomorrow?
Emmeline – typing…
Annoyance simmers below the surface throughout the day, and when she finally does hear from him, he is perfectly casual about it. With determination that two can play that game, Emmeline lays her phone to the side and cracks open the book on her bedside table — Carolyn Steedman’s ‘Dust’ — getting lost in the engaging book about modern historiography.
Making the most of her free weekdays before the university starts back up for the year, Emmeline spends Wednesday at the stable’s, riding Minister is her favourite pastime. The day passes under blue sky and all tension leaving her shoulders, all concerns trampled under hooves.
Marianne is out for the night and Rachel is sits to her left on their large cream sofa, painting her nails a pretty periwinkle blue, the television playing an old episode of Friends.
“Oh wow, do you think we could do that?” Emmeline holds her phone to her friend, displaying the image of three girls in a complex yoga pose.
Impressed to the point that she’s about to comment until she sees part two of the post. James and his friends, in the same position, though not quite as skilled as the girls.
The sight of him wakes her up, they need to talk and clear the air, and he needs to show her he’s willing to work for it a little.
Chat between Emmeline and James 7.33pm
Emmeline – if you’re finished having a laugh with your mates and their gf’s maybe we could talk?
James P – I’d like that, do you want me to come over, or you could come here?
Emmeline – How about you take me to Salazars? Dinner is surely the least you can do
James P – Sure, I’ll try to get a table – 8.30 ok?
Emmeline – I’ll meet you there
When they arrive back at James’ home after the meal, the last thing she wants to do is sit in a room with his friends. They all knew, they must think she’s so stupid for not realising before that there was more to the history of this group. She wouldn’t have guessed it though.
Emmeline can hardly recall an interaction between the two, James and Lily when in the same room hadn’t seemed to like each other much, and so she had assumed that ginger girl was closer to his flatmates.
James wouldn’t go into details about the fight, insisting it wasn’t relevant and that really it was mostly his friends — and her — keeping something from him and that it was resolved now.
Contrite and eager to make amends, he made promises to be better.
When Friday comes around, James lives up to this promise.
Emmeline can’t help but admire the attractive trio as they enter the bar and make their way over to section off party area. James has to duck to pass under the balloon arch, sending her a dazzling smile, as a laugh slips from his lips.
Marlene and Sirius, also in attendance offer birthday wishes to Marianne, passing a bottle shaped gift bag — never a bad choice.
Though James has met a few of her friends, his impressive performance in Austria and word of his Men’s Health interview brings a chatter of excitement.
Vicky squeezes her arm as they lean on the bar, waiting for refills, “You are so lucky, god— are there more of them, these hot men— and are they single?”
Laughter dances in the air, filling all the small cracks that had appeared since last week’s debacle.
That is, until Emmeline steps into the kitchen on their return to Eaton Terrace.
A gathering on the terrace, laughter spliced through the music playing on the speakers. And there, at the counter, moving around as if the space is her own, is Lily.

TASK 002: TERCEIRO DIA DE FESTIVAL — Parte II
Tumblr media
“We're lost in a cloud | With too much rain…”
Hogsmeade está queimando. O que antes era um festival colorido e alegre agora se transformou em um mar de fumaça e chamas. Há um grupo de bruxos encapuzados apontando suas varinhas e impondo distância conforme vão destruindo tudo que ainda permanece em pé. Cartazes com mensagens como “Stop the War”, “Wizards against Wizardry Supremacy” e “Make Love Not War” já não podem ser encontrados. Aqueles sóbrios o suficiente para aparatar somem no meio da confusão, mas estamos nos anos 70 e o efeito de álcool e outras drogas impossibilita aparatações, de maneira que parte expressiva da plateia não pode fazer nada além de correr. Alguns moradores do vilarejo estão dispostos a enfrentar a ameaça, mas são poucos e mal conseguem se identificar no meio da multidão.
No meio da confusão, apenas vinte e dois alunos de Hogwarts decidem ficar. 
Um pouco mais distantes do palco, Lily Evans e James Potter encontram Dorcas Meadowes e Edgar Bones. Os quatro acabam se unindo enquanto tentam procurar pelos amigos e impedir o avanço dos comensais.
No coração da confusão, Remus Lupin e Emmeline Vance escolhem ficar para lutar e se juntam a Alice Murphy e Frank Longbottom para proteger os demais alunos.
Marlene McKinnon, Alastor Moody e Sirius Black, em um acordo mútuo, saem rapidamente de perto do palco para se juntar aos demais bruxos na linha de defesa do vilarejo.
Peter Pettigrew já tinha se transformado em rato para fugir do conflito quando um sopro de consciência faz ele voltar e procurar pelos amigos, encontrando Ophelia Diggle, Benjamin Fenwick e Lucinda Talkalot em formação.
Sturgis Podmore, Amelia Bones e Davey Gudgeon nem sequer pensam em aparatar e logo já estão em busca de outros alunos na resistência contra as figuras que vão avançando como fumaça pela multidão.
Greta Catchlove, Hestia Jones, Mary Macdonald e Pandora Dorellan firmam uma aliança e fazem o possível para impedir que o fogo avance pelas casas.
Com o avançar da hora, fica muito evidente para todos que nada mais será o mesmo e que novos tempos se instalam na comunidade bruxa. Entre as poucas pessoas que permanecem em pé, alguns alunos de Hogwarts chamam a atenção uns dos outros e, conforme a fumaça vai se dissipando meio à noite, eles finalmente se encontram e se juntam até formar um grupo maior. Quando os danos da confusão são contidos e as figuras encapuzadas somem meio à multidão, eles decidem procurar abrigo no Cabeça de Javali e aguardar até que seja seguro retornar à Hogwarts. Exaustos, acabam passando a noite ali, recapitulando os acontecimentos da noite anterior e tentando entender o que acabaram de vivenciar. 
Não sabem que estão sendo vistos através do espelho de dois lados do bar. Não sabem que Albus Dumbledore está observando, de seu escritório em Hogwarts, a aliança que acaba de se formar. 
Não sabem ainda que essa é a primeira reunião da Ordem da Fênix.
Tumblr media
OOC:
Nessa task, pedimos para que os players turnem usando e abusando de todas os espaços que o rpg e o universo bruxo oferecem, além da lista de feitiços que pode ser encontrada aqui.
Enfatizamos que os prompts em tópicos são apenas formas de ajudar os players a encontrarem seus devido lugares no decorrer do fim do terceiro dia, mas que podem ser alterados e incrementados. Aliás, incentivamos a troca de "panelas", onde alguns grupos se juntem e personagens se separem. Isso ajudará a fortalecer turnos entre personagens que nunca sequer interagiram, ou que tiveram poucas interações, como seria o caso de Sirius Black e Alice Murphy, por exemplo. POVs também são muito bem-vindos.
Essa task irá durar enquanto a central sentir que será necessário para que todos tenham explorado o final do dia. Qualquer dúvida, estamos disponíveis.

SWTE A1 C12 - 1 Winner, 6 Losers, 1 It's Complicated 
Because Lucius Malfoy is in a fucking Hooters uniform.
Guess who wrote this on Monday but forgot to post it? Anyways, another amazing example of what happens when I try to make Regulus happy, this 2 POV Halloween-themed monster is the most chaotic of Act 1, so far (and I know I say that every week, but it's because the shit that happens each chapter keeps increasing!). I like to think it has all of the staples of a solid Sleeping With The Enemy chapter: an excruciatingly dramatic inner monologue, truly bizarre behavior from all of the characters, ruined plans, and so many emotions that writing it gave me whiplash. Here is the 1 winner and many losers from "Trick ± Treat", alongside their Halloween costumes! Spoilers below the cut. 
Winner: Bellatrix Black (Black Swan)
Yeah, our only winner in this chapter is Bellatrix. Who isn't even a PLAYER in Orion's fucked up mind games? As Regulus identifies, she's the only person who uses their money in a fun way. While her family was getting emotionally tortured by Orion Black, she was in France, hosting a bacchanal, and flew home to NYC to have the cutest matching costume with her sister. Unbothered queen.
Loser: Renée Vance-Black (The Velveteen Rabbit, a costume she changed out of as soon as a nanny snapped a picture)
The seven-year-old hugged her dad, and he had fallen on the floor, having a mental breakdown. Then, she sawhim throwing up. THEN, her parents ditched her for a Halloween party. She's a child I'm sobbing this isn't fair.
Loser: Petra Pettigrew (Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson In His Black Turtleneck)
Even though her costume was fire and her party seemed to be going great, I'm going for her as a loser since halfway through this great party, her old high school friend turned into a werewolf, and she had to scurry through the halls as a rat. Also, Regulus really kink-shames her after he gets locked in her love dungeon.
Loser that probably thinks he's a winner, the optimistic idiot: James Potter (Unknown)
James literally says three words in this chapter, but he's still oddly prevalent. He's a loser because Remus, who hasn't told James that he was attending, has transformed during a very public event, and if this gets out, MMG, alongside his reputation, is ruined. While he saved Regulus, this was not a victory; it was a necessity.
Loser: Remus Lupin (The Joker)
I don't want to hear ANY counterpoints on this one. I think a counterpoint would be impossible to form. The only reason he's a winner is because Sirius and Marlene had an argument; other than that, it's lose, lose, lose. He goes out and transforms in a public space full of friends and business partners. Sirius bites his shoulder. Marlene calls him a side chick. Literally the most ginormous loss.
Loser: Sirius Black (Conan The Barbarian)
He fights with his wife, then fights with his boyfriend, and said boyfriend turns into a monster and absolutely brutalizes the brother that he's arguing with. Like?? Do I need to elaborate??
Loser: Lucius Malfoy (Hooter's Girl)
His crush told him that she'd match costumes with him, but guess what! She didn't! Now, he's all alone in a tight nylon scoop top and booty shorts. Sirius found him hot for a millisecond, though?? But to Lucius, that probably makes for an even bigger loss. Either way, long live Himbo Lucius.
It's Complicated: Regulus Black (Hannibal Lecter)
Bro. I literally don't even know how to start. Regulus would be a loser, since his daughter catches him in the middle of a mental breakdown, he has a weird moment with Emmeline (tbh, all their moments are weird), and he hangs up because he literally can't handle the sound of James' voice. And that's just BEFORE the Halloween party, where he has a tense moment with his brother that he probably won't forgive anytime soon, a werewolf slams him against the wall and a red stag scoops him away and charges into safety, accidentally stabbing him with its antlers, and ending up in Petra's fucking love dungeon. That is a LOSS. But the very real, very large thing that makes me reject his status as a loser is that he's deprogramming himself from his father's bullshit. I don't know if this is because of James' influence or a part of his recovery from Slut in the Hut- but instead of having his Van Der Woodsen moment and throwing his phone out the window, he tracks down a homeless man and gives it to him, instead. Very rudely. But still. Regulus is undergoing a very subtle transformation (even a physical one, at the beginning on the chapter- go Animagus Reg!), and I just hope that he's able to complete it before his father finds out- and drags him straight back to where he came from.
read chapter 12 here!
