James: So... I saw you spending a lot of time with Remus lately. Sirius: no James, it's not what it looks like I swear James: oh really? So no reason for me to be jealousy? Sirius: no, Prongs, you are the only one for me James: Is that so? Sirius: I swear to god, Remus and I are only dating, ok? He's my boyfriend James: so there are no best friend feelings involved? Sirius: you are still my one and only best friend! He's just the love of my life, nothing more James: but I'm still the platonic love of you life right? Sirius: of course bro! James: bro! Lily and Remus: what the-

So the shipping war hehe this will be hard for some but yea we are starting

Ship-war ( but don’t hate) round 1A

( this time if you can’t choose choose the couple that would win a couples costume competition)

DAY FIVE - the end

Summary:

There’s no easy way to say I love you. Not when the love has branded, burned and singed my heart and soul for the seven years it’s been festering. But that is the truth. I am in love with you. I am entirely enamoured, captivated, and enchanted by you, and that has been the case for longer than I’d like to admit. For longer than I initially realised. I think I loved you before I even knew you.

  Summary:

For seven years, Remus Lupin loved Sirius Black. For seven years, Remus Lupin hid it. He got quite good at that, actually. But now, with less than seven days to live, Remus has to decide whether he is going to confess his feelings or let his newly acquired disease kill him. Neither of which are very appealing.

He's fucked.

-Or-

Remus Lupin has Hanahaki and needs to tell Sirius but isn't sure he wants to.

Love from, Juni

what is a wolfstar?

well you see, when two extremely gay characters are assigned heavy wolf + dog, moon + star symbolism while their actual names create the most cursed combinations (ririus, semus, blupin), they are to be paired in the sacred tradition of cutesy yet inevitably confusing nouns.

also, tragically, moonfoot was overlooked.

i'm so glad the remus x sirius shipname is wolfstar because the other options were ririus, semus, blupin or lack

guys help me find this fic pls. so it was on ao3, wolfstar, and sirius wrote a song about remus with something along the lines of “can we try this love for real?/yours for mine sounds like a good deal” and “it’s getting harder to stay away”. also peter and james were making up shipnames for wolfstar: sirimus, ririus, starwolf i think, etc. PLEASE HELP ME FIND IT!!!!!!

wolfstar —> ririus (say it like scooby do)

this made me cackle AHDJDJSJA like wolfstar will always be the exception bc they’re the original bUT

sirimus <- that’s what i would go with i think in a work where all ship name aestheticism is banned

some great alternates to wolfstar:

ririus

remius

semus

blupin

sirimus

reblack

lupius

supin

not gonna like blupin is so cute hahaha

so for me is:

wolfstar

blupin

not even on the list: all of the others

The most realistic thing about Harry Potter is that all the ship names sound stupid.

(The exception being Wolfstar, but imagine if it was written with their actual names; Semus/Ririus.)

ello laura i do not usually open blocked tags but i did out of curiosity n stumbled across ur post abt the apparent height disk horse that is happening rn (<-blissfully unaware). also this is the ghost of marxismlupinism btw sending as an anon cause on my main blog idk what a semus and ririus is never heard of them cunts.

anyway I wanted to say that yeah basically it's like such a non issue if people are casting r&s into gendered roles, like even if people were genderbending rs into a literal cishet couple I could not care less who gives a shit it's harry potter fanfiction.

that being said I think it's very telling abt the hp fandom that the whole like "writing s as 'feminine' and a bottom comes with him being short" (which btw... i mean I'm sure there's some fanfic like that but I can't say I've really read more than like 5 fics that fit that description? and I've unfortunately read a lot of rs fic lmao... it's literally not hard to avoid. skill issue if you can't filter the fanfic you read to not have it) is portrayed as homophobia against [cis] gay men instead of the obvious transmisogyny it is—ie setting smallness & youth as standards of femininity. that's why so many closeted trans women/trans women who can't access hrt dread growing older, that's why so much emphasis is put on age of transition in transfem spaces, and that's why even gay man spaces have concepts of "twink death", because femininity is understood to be hairless and pretty and dainty and youthful and small and all these standards that are difficult to achieve if you've been through androgenic puberty and/or if you have testes that continue to produce testosterone that continues to masculinise your body as you grow older. portraying s (or any given character ime when it comes to tme fans in fandom spaces) as feminine is seen as going hand in hand with physically feminising him—bc femininity that's not on a feminised body is obviously met with disgust, it's unattractive, it's horrifying, etc. and the obvious source of the tendency to portray feminine male characters this way is that there's only one acceptable form of camab femininity (or "acceptable", even that is very conditional). and yes it does affect cis gays like I said above w how gay men talk about eg "twink death" but that doesn't mean it's not a primarily transmisogynistic impulse to show that, for most of us, femininity is a hopeless cause, it's not allowed, we'll never pass or be beautiful or whatever.

and ftr I'm just complaining, I definitely don't think the solution is to produce More Harry Potter Fanfictions where s is like, tall and hairy and feminine or whatever, knowing the hp fandom I'm sure they'll also turn that into transmisogynistic caricatures too. the only real solution would be for all these ppl to stop reading hp fanfic and start reading transfeminist theory but if ur a harry potter fan in 2023 you're obviously never gonna do that. so. yeah just complaining for the sake of complaining lol not expecting transfeminism to catch on among harry potter fans of all people anytime soon

hi (redacted)!! actually made sure to tag that post so u and all my other normal followers could avoid it but i respect the curiosity x im sure you've probably seen the height discourse many times over in your time in the fandom and it's the same absolute bullshit every time. i appreciate your additions to this post as a transwoman because i obviously don't have that perspective and you've kind of deepened my understanding of the issues around it n how transmisogyny comes into play here!!

in my prev posts i was kind of addressing, albeit likely not clearly, how people often say they dislike 'short s' as a kind of shorthand for saying they dislike 'fem s', which is really saying (as people dig themselves deeper in their explanations) that they don't like certain aspects of 'femininity' in a man and then spin it to say that it's because they're writing a heteronormative relationship onto a gay couple. i appreciate what you're saying here as well of the issues of the only way to write s as feminine is like small, dainty, hairless etc. and how that is an issue of transmisogyny rather than like homophobia. (correct me if i've misunderstood tho!!)

at the end of the day it definitely like, doesn't matter how people are writing hp characters like no great and impressive change is happening and the fandom is full of too many transphobes for that to be the case. i just don't understand why people are so pressed by these certain characterisations they appear to dislike so bad when i genuinely barely come across these s characterisations they apparently can't escape. like i don't see anything i don't want to because i just unfollow and block people ....it is not that hard like...

anyway thank u for ur contributions ghost of marxismlupinism, i appreciate it xx godspeed xx

so i put remus and sirius in a couples name generator and the results are so bad. i now understand why people decided on wolfstar

Sirius: *tries to slap Remus's ass as he walks past by* Sirius: *misses, trips and falls* Remus: *tries to catch but overbalances* Remus: *tries to hold a chair for support* Chair: *breaks* Remus: *falls on top of Sirius* Marlene, watching: It's like watching two animals do an out-of-sync and very destructive mating dance.

Does anyone know where the name wolfstar came from? Because it fits so well and I’m glad I don’t have to say I ship Ririus or Blupin

rating ship names for sirius black and remus lupin let’s go

wolfstar - a classic. wolf? yeah that’s remus. star? yeah that’s sirius. accurate. i like it. 9/10. got a point of for sounding like a shoe brand that goes $400 per pair

r/s - makes me feel like a thirty year old woman who was popular on livejournal. 10/10 i think it’s got cool vibes

ririus - 0/10. i am not elaborating

blupin - sounds like a medicine company. 3/10

drizzerey replied to your post: Maybe Ame and Kaze for Hanzo’s dragons And Ramen...

I gave them the names Ririu and Kariu, it was a couple of dragon gods I found online and thought the names sounded pretty cool. I saw someone else name Genji’s Soba which I thought was super cute.

A friend of mine calls Hanzo’s dragons Soba and Udon with Genji’s being Ramen.  Ririu and Kariu are both cute too <3
