#taylor sings about the marauders in every song
No, because when "And I left my scarf there at your sister's house and you've still got it in your drawer even now", Taylor was actually singing about Reggie's hat, which is still in James' drawer

how different marauders characters would act at a taylor swift concert w/ you ⭑
inspired by this post by the lovely @bealovesmarauders
(0.7k)
remus knows her discography by heart. he was originally a little insecure to sing the whole time, but he can’t help but sing along when you look so cute dancing and screaming the words to each song. he probably would’ve been the one to buy tickets after you came to terms with your chances of getting them being so slim, so when he surprised you with them you were over the moon. he would’ve gotten you two lower bowl seats so you would be really close but also able to see every single visual. he also would’ve offered to stand and wait in the merch line during the openers and before the concert started so you could have fun and watch them and have a cute t-shirt to take home.
james “swiftie” potter would be going absolutely feral. he would’ve gotten floor seats that were at least in the first ten rows so he could feel everything. he would’ve made a huge ordeal about surprising you with the tickets. i just know he would take you out to a fancy brunch before you guys got ready for the concert. he would probably want you two to go as miss americana and the heartbreak prince and people would definitely use your pictures as inspo for their shows. i also think he’d be the type to propose during lover or love story if you were at that point in the relationship. he would’ve been all cute about it too and told everyone around you so they could film and take pictures for you guys during the moment. he would also make a show of carrying you back to your car after the concert, even if your feet didn’t hurt that bad from the extremely uncomfortable shoes you inevitably would wear.
oh, sirius. i feel like he’s a total music snob and was really only going originally because you were so excited about it. but then he gets to the concert and he’s awestruck. he would’ve gone insane during the beat drop in don’t blame me but also prob would’ve teared up during my tears ricochet. he would’ve loved every moment of it and would immediately regret not learning all her songs before the concert. i think he’d be so obsessed that the minute he got home he would’ve gone online and bought you two more tickets for either the second night in your city or the next closest show. he’d also probably make you explain all the lore and stories behind everything on the way home. you just know that next time, he will be so prepared he will outshine every other swiftie boyfriend in the crowd. he’s also a rep girly.
lily is a swiftie through and through. there’s not doubt in my mind that she’s not an evermore and lover girly. she would’ve fought hard for those tickets and she would be so proud when she surprised you with them. you and her would spend so much time picking out the perfect themed outfits for the night and would definitely end up in a few of those “my fav outfits i saw at the era’s tour!” videos. she definitely has a note in her notes app where she keeps track of all the surprise songs and which ones she wants (she was heartbroken after dbatc and clean were taken in the same night, but she also knows that there’s not a single song that she’d be disappointed in getting). it honestly doesn’t matter where your seats are because no matter what you two will be having so much fun it won’t even matter in the end.
regulus, unlike sirius, actually prepared for the concert. he was definitely doing his research before hand. he was never a big taylor swift fan before, but when he saw your eyes light up when you told him you got tickets, he knew he had to be ready. he spent months listening to each album one by one, making playlists, attempting to learn words, and maybe even looking into the meaning behind the songs. he may get a little too caught up in connecting each song to one of her relationships and prob would wear and “i <3 T. S.” shirt to the concert. like james, he would’ve offered to carry you out of the arena, but unlike james, he would’ve listened to you saying no and would’ve been content simply holding your shoes in one hand and your hand in the other.

@her-midas-touch is a poet and wrote this for me hehe:
Run out of metaphors great enough, my fingers paint a wraith
To faint to capture essence, mere shimmery traces of feelings
Every cheshire cat smile, every whirlwind idea, every leap of faith for every apathetic eye, missing the moment, is a soul
that sings

How different Marauders era characters would feel about Taylor Swift.
Sirius- Obsessed with Taylor and her music. If she has one fan, it's him. If she has no fans, he's dead (like all the people he loves). Acknowledges that she does some questionable things but always makes excuses for her. Was really upset when Taylor and Joe broke up. Gets annoyed when people don't listen to Taylor's Version. Collected every CD, vinyl, and piece of merch that he could.
James- Outwardly pretends he just likes the music, but actually really relates to a lot of the sadder songs (eg Tolerate It). Sings the sweet, romantic songs to Lily/Reg all the time.
Remus- Was always annoyed at how overplayed Taylor's songs were, so hated/disliked her songs. Reluctantly agreed to go to the Eras Tour with Sirius and listened to the setlist in preparation and actually really loved a lot of the songs, but kept pretending to hate her because he didn't want to admit he was wrong.
Peter- Wasn't a Swiftie but liked a few of her songs. Didn't really understand why she was rerecording her albums except that it was important to her and the Swifties.
Lily- Major Swiftie, related to loads of songs and loved almost all of the rest. Went through everyone's playlists and replaced everything with Taylor's Version.
Mary- Was a Swiftie but not massive levels of obsession like Lily or Sirius. Really related to some of the songs, liked how a bunch of others sounded.
Marlene- Gatekept her favourites, judged Swifties based on which albums/songs they liked.
Dorcas- Loved Taylor's music, memorised as many of her songs as possible. Critical of Taylor's actions but still loved her and her music. Didn't want to give any money to Scooter Braun etc by streaming non-Taylor's Version songs, so listened to Reg's CDs if she wanted to listen to something that wasn't Taylor's Version.
Regulus- Obsessed with every song. Refused to even have non-Taylor's Version playing near him, even in public. Was the type of person to say "You can't be a Lover stan if you don't like Afterglow" etc, especially to Sirius. Collected the cardigans and CDs.
Pandora- Huge folklore girlie. Not a huge pop girl, but loves the country/alternative albums.
Evan- Didn't count himself as a Swiftie, but all of his friends are obsessed with her so he's grown to like her music. Doesn't tell anyone what he thinks about different songs for fear of being murdered by the people he loves (like James and Lily on Halloween 1981).
Barty- Doesn't tell anyone outside of his friends that he likes Taylor, but secretly loves all of her music, especially her pop albums.

Marauders head cannons!!!
Lily draws hearts as the dots above her i's
James would say "I'm just being a silly billy!" then stick out his tongue (okay drake)
Marlene's favorite Taylor swift song was getaway car and she'd literally pick up dorcas and run around carrying her bridal style singing it at the top of her lungs
sirius made loads of thirst traps but really shitty ones and Marlene bullied the living shit out of him calling him a dumb bitch and that he looked ugly and that she could see all 5 of his chins from that angle
Remus is Jewish and to show his support James once ran into the dorm with a tiny kipper on his head singing god save the queen thinking 100% that god save the queen was 'the Jewish national anthem'
James had a lisp for a week cause of a prank that went slightly too far and lily took the piss out of it every time that they argued and she would just randomly switch to a lisp and say stuff like "oh does wikkle jamesie not wike dat?" and she'd purposefully make it so she spat on him
sirius watched bluey until peter and mary bullied him out of it
"I'm a big strong man I can win Evans heart over!" "James last night you wore a purple onesie with tiny green dinosaurs on it the only heart your winning over is a child's, fucking pedophile" - Remus and james
James wears the footies onesies and remus bullies the living fuck out of him for it
James and sirius lost at theme park:
"uhm can 'my little Remus moony sugar pie plum' come to lost and found we have a special present waiting for you" "honest to GOD I can't take him ANYWHERE"
‘this anyones kid?’ ‘yes that is actually my boyfriend’ ‘…how old are you two.?’
"wait where's sirius and James?" "LILY ESCAPE WHILE WE STILL CAN"
' lily look how about we go on the ferris wheel instead of finding those two’ ‘you have amazing ideas’
sirius and James would be at the top waving down at them with cotton candy and 2 of those massive arse teddies that cost shit loads to win
sirius would have a wolf one and James would have a unicorn
James was obsessed with pokemon and he bought harry a Pikachu onesie and himself a Squirtle one and lily had an Evie one
Snape watching anime
James and sirius did too but they stopped as soon as they found out that Snape watched It aswell
they definitely did the Naruto run down the corridors while Remus and peter slowly died from embarrassment
"we don't know them wdym I've never heard of a specky lad called James or an unfairly attractive boy that may or may not be my boyfriend before whatttttt"
"Remus, sweetheart, darling, baby, love, hunny, don't try and lie to me I'm not particularly pleased that the other one is MY boyfriend but at least I'm taking responsibility for my own actions"
James is obsessed with prime
Remus is obsessed with orange lucozade and milk chocolate
James makes harry try his prime
‘That dead nice!’ He says while vomiting 😍
"so, what'd ya think pringle?" "mmmm really nice" "JAMES STOP FEEDING OUR CHILD YOUR WEIRD YOUTUBE JUICE"
Pringle - sirius started it and now James calls him it
lily calls him cute things like sweetheart and stuff but James calls him pringle and big hazza
"oi hazza, help your old man with these won't you" "James he's 3" "so? when I was 3 I was building myself a doll house!" *sirius in the background* "AHA FRUITY MOTHER FUCKER"
Remus got tickled alot when he was he so when someone tried to tickle him he’d just do that slow turn around and stare and James tried to imitate him but with his prime and he just looked stupid
James would say let's skaddadle and buckle up buttercup when someone makes him angry
James called lily sugar bunny once and lily broke his finger
and once when he was trying to be sexy he said "buckle up buttercup, it's going to be a bumpy ride" and lily removed James off of her, looked him in the eye and said "I'll be back in five minutes so I can recover and we're going to pretend this never happened."
then lily told sirius and sirius called him buttercup for ages
‘Oi buttercup! Cmre!’ ‘Huh? U mean remus? He isnt here ‘ ‘no you fucking nob’
"hey you wanna" *lip bite and awful attempt at a wink* "you know"
James is afraid of the word sex
if they had the internet james would post ‘Christmas haul 😇’ and Marlene would join in half way through to take the piss and in the end half of Hogwarts was showing off James' shit that he got and at the end Alice and lily held hands, bowed then just walked off
James would watch 1000 pound sisters and dance moms religiously
they did a nativity one year
Remus was the donkey
sirius was the baby jesus
James was pregnant mary and sirius was inside James shirt for half of it until he fell out and fell off the stage
cracked his head open but still went on with it and he was bleeding severely but he was still the best damn baby Jesus out there
and Minnie was the in keeper and Marlene was the inkeepers wife but she went all out for her one line
Marlene's line- "sorry love, no room here, you can stay at the barn if you'd like?" but she made a song to go with it and a choreographed dance team - made up of Severus, Dumbledore and 3 elves from the kitchens
and Alice was Joseph and from then on called sirius her little baby jesus
sirius had the nickname jesus for ages afterwards
Elves had a rap solo each
one time James and sirius were arguing over the best Taylor swift song (james-love story, sirius-anti hero) and then Remus walked in with chocolate and an orange lucozade singing bejeweled and Mary and peter were singing shake it off
peter was literally everywhere. everywhere you looked peter mfing pettigrew was there, most of the time singing shake it off like if you go to the great hall at around 2:30 at night on a Tuesday peter will be on the tables singing shake it off
Sirius can't speak french but is 100% convinced he's great at it.
He finds out he's 1/4 french and walks into the dorm wearing a beret and a baguette in his arms with a fake twirly mustache.
Remus can speak french and uses it for his own benefit.
"es-tu un pervers qui tripote des vers pendant qu'il dort" - are you a pervert that fiddles with wormy while he sleeps
Remus would use reddit religiously
Remus and lily were childhood friends due to both growing up in the same area (tho Remus is Welsh and lily is Scottish) and dancing around to Abba is still their favorite hobby
Remus-welsh
Lily-scottish
James-scouse
Peter-scottish
Sirius-posh british but 1/4 french (assmued that meant he was fully french and 'turned french' for like a week
Regulus- posh british but 1/4 french (actually bothered to learn french to get in touch with his french roots unlike sirius)
Marlene-northern
Alice-northern
Mary-southern
Lana del ray would put James into a coma
Peter used a ketchup bottle as a fake guitar once
James would randomly grab lily's leg while she was say down and use to as a fake guitar (when they were dating ofc)
Remus loved Bowie more than life itself
Karaoke nights in the gryffindor common room
When Remus was pissed off with sirius he would call him tampon rather than pads
Peters favorite horrible histories song was Pachacuti and he had a full choreographed dance for it
James favorite flavour of chocolate was white chocolate because he couldn't handle dark chocolate and milk was 'too basic'
James is the type of guy to say 'me me me me me' when he's snoring
At least once James was angry at snape and was abt to fight him and he said "someone hold me back!" then literally no one did
Sirius would randomly quote the most random stuff when he was stressed, for example, when sirius found out that Reggie got the dark mark he quoted dance moms on 3 occasions
"I had not choice, sirius!" "I cut my finger on my mom's ring, I hope I can still dance!" "Sirius shut the fuck up."
Sirius would play my singing monsters 24/7
If they were a band. Sirius is the singer. James is the guitarist. Remus plays the bass and Peter is the drums but Peter only knows shake it off so marlene stood in for him. Dorcas is the band manager and Mary and Peter watch rehearsal. Lily doesn’t bother with that crap but to support James she plays keyboard sometimes
James wanted to be the singer but sirius said he wanted to be it cause he'd be at "the front and he'd be the eye candy for the girls" Then he’d wink at remus
"the marauders and sirius" “no it’s Sirius and the marauders “ "sirius why do you need to be specifically mentioned" "because I'm special" Then him and James would argue over Sirius’s name being first "ITS SIRIUS AND THE MARAUDERS" "ITS LOVE STORY." "ANTI-HERO."
Go-to insults
Peter: fatty
Sirius: numpty, plonker
James: cheeky spaz, jizz face
Remus: idiot or something really personal
Reactions to someone calling peter fat
Remus: he's not fat he's just plus sized

Sirius: he's not fat he's just a big boy (whacks peters belly as he says big boy)

Band Au Headcanons (Slytherins Addition)
I can't imagine Regulus being in a band. Like he would for sure be on his own and write his own songs.
But he and the Slytherins would be super close, always opening for each other and randomly singing together in like videos and stuff.
I can imagine Regulus singing some Sabrina Carpender and Conan Grey 100%.
Like in the Exit he'd be singing about Sirius leaving and moving on from their bond before Regulus could even process that he was never coming back. (We had matching wounds but mines still black and bruised...)
And in Opposite he's singing about James dating Lily a few months after their quite break-up. (If you wanted green eyes, I could've gotten contacts.)
Family line for obvious reasons.
Regulus, despite his attitude, is super kind to his fans.
He's also super active on his socials. Dueting on TikTok, liking Instagram posts, threading tweets.
All of the Skittles karaoke Taylor Swift, ABBA, and Lana Del Rey, no doubt about it.
Reg's go to is for sure My Tears Richotte (he cries almost every time too)
Pandora is Regulus' manager.
She'll force Regulus to open for the Marauders when they're on their world tour. (I'll do ships for this later)
When thy fix their relationship, Sirius and Regulus do a lor of preforming together.
Like they'll preform at pride parades with Reg being trans and Sirius genderfluid.
Reg's very open about it too, often (unknowingly) helping his fans discover themselves.
He does face a lot of hate for it too.
All of the Skittles do for being some form of discrimination, mainly Reg and Dorcas. But they couldn't give any less fucks.
There's constantly someone talking about someone else's drama. Like Evan and Barty could be fighting and Dorcas and Pandora would be whispering about the entire thing, trying to get all of the details from each other.
Regulus is the last of them to retire.

if you don’t mind me asking, what are your swiftie!marauders headcanons if you have any? 🫶🏻
Sirius's favourite album is Red
everyone thinks he likes Reputation more because he's always singing those lyrics to seduce Remus
he has a "Fuck The Patriarchy" keychain specifically for the taylor reference
James's favourite album is 1989
"Blank Space" would mysteriously come on at almost every gryffindor party and a drunk James would get on top of a table and sing for Lily (she would pitch in for "boys only want love if it's torture")
when anyone says a word or phrase that reminds him of a taylor swift song he will start singing it and he will continue until he reaches the end (or until someone stops him)
Remus's favourite album is Evermore
"willow" was played at his a Sirius's wedding (they totally got married, don't argue)
he has had to teach his friends what a word means when it comes up in a song and he sings the correct lyric while everyone else descends into nonsense
Pete's favourite album is Fearless
he knows who every song is about and what was happening during that time of taylor's life
he has told a lot of it to Remus when they were listening to her together
none of the marauders will change genders/pronouns while singing, for 3-5 (or 10) minutes they are women in whatever situation taylor has set up for them

My favourite headcanon is that all the marauders like Taylor Swift.
Yet Remus, Regulus, Barty and Sirius would pretend like they don’t like her at all, although everyone knows they’re blasting her music as soon as they think no one was there to hear them.
James and Mary on the other hand would make it everyones business that they are swifties, theorising about her Easter eggs and singing to her songs every chance they get.

Tumblr media
Full credits to the GIF creator
Summary: fame was never easy and Remus warned you, after six years you want to start again.
Remus Lupin x famous!f Reader.
Warnings: none, if you think there is one, please let me know.
Words: 1228
A/N: This fic is heavily inspired by The Lucky One from Taylor Swift :)) and maybe there will be a part 2.
EDIT: part 2 is up now :)
marauders era masterlist
The stage was huge and ready for you to step on it. Your school years are long forgotten and everyone you’ve ever cared for too, even Remus. It was a shame how it all ended, all because of the difference between your ambitions, you’ve always wanted to be famous, some way, somehow.
He told you to quit your dreams, to think of something more realistic, like a healer or maybe a professor at Hogwarts. You thought about it through your last year, pursuing a real career and becoming a healer. You were great at healing his wounds, but you were so unhappy thinking about it being your future.
You were a great singer too, that was your passion, being under the lights and singing your heart to everyone that wanted to hear you. You created a band, The Marauders, you as the lead singer, James as the second guitar, Remus as the bassist and Sirius as the drummer. And you understood there, you felt great when people came to your shows and cheered, but as their last years at Hogwarts loomed they started thinking about profession that you knew, deep down, they didn’t like.
Your relationship with Remus ended with huge fights every night because of who you wanted to be. One night you packed your things and fled to London, pursuing your dreams and leaving all behind…
Now you were there, in front of millions of judges, or fans, your first concert of the year. You became everything you wanted to be, you changed your name, moved to a new town and since then your name was written in every magazine. You were famous. You were so lucky, or that’s what everyone told you. Your songs were streaming everywhere at every second in every part of the world, most of those were copies of the ones you wrote with him in school. It reminded you of where you came from.
But fame, oh fame is cold and unforgiving. You hated your new self, how you treated everyone and you hated how your bed sheets covered a new person each night, none of them knowing your name or if they did, they didn't matter. Every secret you told to your ‘‘friends’’ ended up splash on the news and you hated it, you hated this life. You felt oh so unlucky, so used, as if you were a toy. So you decided that tonight’s show was the last one. And so it was.
As the last notes were streaming, you started running, leaving the cheering behind and everyone who told you to stay. You ran to your car, your manager chasing you and punching the trunk, but you sped out of it, went home and started packing everything, your money, your clothes, your awards, but most importantly your dignity. Then you thought, he was right.
You were back, England, your home. You knew where to go. You asked for a cab and went to the countryside, you hoped the same house you once fled would still be there.
You knocked at the door, waiting impatiently and picking your last traces of black nail polish, and then it opened. Remus behind it, pure shock on his face. He scanned you, head to feet, and so did you. You noticed how scars grew bigger and how he grew a bit taller. You threw yourself into his embrace and cried, how much have you missed him.
‘‘W-what are you doing here?’’ he said. His voice was way deeper than you remembered and comforting. You wanted to be between his arms forever.
‘‘I- I just… I guess…’’ you tried saying between sobs, but you couldn’t, the only thought in your head was the warmth you were feeling.
‘‘Okay, calm down, breathe in and out’’ He held your shoulders so you could look at him, and led you inside.
He sat you down on a green couch, it was even more comfortable than yours, he went to the kitchen and prepared tea. You started to calm down after all the commotion and the sound of water boiling and the smell of species soothed you. It was strange being there, you were used to big mansions, full of people and parties, it was as if the life you’ve lived before didn’t exist.
‘‘Here, take it’’ He handed you your favourite tea. You took it and maintained it with your two hands, it was the right moment
‘‘You were right’’ you blurted out, in a whisper.
‘‘What?’’ he questioned, sitting next to you.
‘‘You were right’’ you repeated, tears welling in your eyes. You broke down bawling. He put his hand on your back, moving it up and down in a soothing way.
You felt so good and right with him, being unknown for everyone else but him. There, you were lucky, and no one had to tell you. Until the creak of the stairs, it awoke you. Remus stood up quickly, leaving your back cold.
‘‘Rem, I heard the knock are you r-’’ A woman's voice started, until she saw you. ‘‘Is that-’’ she couldn’t finish the sentence because she started feeling starstruck.
‘‘Anne, don’t, please. She is not having a great day, it seems, but she is going. Now’’ Remus spared you a look, his gaze hardened. You weren’t welcome no more.
‘‘Maybe, I-, yes, I should get going, there are more people I have to greet’’. You put your cup of tea on the wooden table and bid goodbye to the woman, Anne you thought was her name.
Remus accompanied you to the door. You wanted to cry.
‘‘I-, sorry, it was Anne, my fiancée…’’ Your heart broke, but you could understand life keeps going without you. ‘‘I don’t really know what to say, it’s a surprise seeing you here, after’’ he paused to think ‘‘seven years, and it killed me when I read the magazines. Your life page and mine were completely different, a different guy each night, I wanted to be those guys.’’
He sighed and your lip started to quiver, you also hoped for all of them to be Remus and they weren’t. You have always wanted Remus.
‘‘Until I met Anne, she is… She isn’t you’’ You felt as if someone stabbed you multiple times, she didn’t want you anymore ‘‘She works as a healer and she is the kindest person you would ever meet, she is wonderful and she accepts me, and… I had waited for you, the first years of my relationship with her’’.
‘‘But we can try, if you have waited all these-’’ you were cut by him.
‘‘Have you understand anything? Shit! I have a fiancée! I can’t just leave her because you feel overwhelmed with everything you wanted at first! I warned you, but your heart impered the fame, I was always a second choice after fame and you know that!’’ he shouted angrily.
You flinched at his tone, when he realised he stopped screaming, he was sad and disappointed, with you, with him, with how you two ended. He wanted to be with you, but Anne was in his life now.
‘‘I should get going Remus, and I was- I’ll go to James’ house, he is still with Lily, isn’t it?’’ you asked, trying to lighten the mood. He only nodded and closed the door behind him.
A few hours passed, you had cried, but you were waiting for the taxi now, Remus came and stood by your side, later, you knew he felt guilty and didn’t want you to feel alone. It was your time to go when the taxi arrived. But before you entered the cab, he caught your hand and pulled you in for the last kiss you could never share.

I’m a July cancer 👎, I’m a very chaotic and energetic person, but of course I have my quiet moments where I don’t speak at all, my biggest interests are probably reading and writing, I’m very blunt and talk back sometimes which is just so 👎👎, I swear like in every sentence I use, always making s3x jokes, and I love T Swifty. I listen to her only when I workout to count my time 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻!

marauders and co at karaoke:
lily - WOULD SING HER HEART OUT, NO MATTER HOW MUCH ALCOHOL SHE’D HAD. often chose london boy by taylor swift, and as a duet with remus from time to time (directed at james and sirius respectively), or gorgeous by ts. basically just tries to be taylor the entire night.
remus - cares much more about the visuals and performance than the vocals. often goes with any abba song, but like... mamma mia style. would sing lay all your love on me directed at sirius.
sirius - SUCH A TRIPLE THREAT I SWEAR his dancing, vocals and facial expressions are always on point. go to’s include why’d you only call me when you’re high, any suggestive type song (to sing while staring intensely at remus), and good old fashioned lover boy and other queen songs!!
james - tries to be as good at sirius, but really just isn’t. strictly goes with anything off of reputation. and speak now. (jily is the ultimate swiftie couple pass it on)
peter - he’s really just there for a fun time. either tries and fails miserably at doing eminem, or sings songs from disney movies.
marlene - she knows how to sing, and does it really fucking well, but is pretty shy about it. after warming up with a couple duets with dorcas, though, she goes full disco. once sang ‘hopelessly devoted to you’ from grease and fucking nailed it.
dorcas - she’s always been a theatre kid to me, so she has a ‘musicals’ type voice. and therefore would perform stuff from heathers, beetlejuice, grease, six, and so on.
mary - great stage presence. she’s the best to watch. and just... 80s pop!!!! sings never gonna give you up at some point every time, but people still end up not expecting it, so she always succeeds at rick rolling them.

the marauders (and the girls) as taylor swift fans
James: a sucker for paper rings and jump then fall and literally any happy, lovely song he can fantasize himself in with Lily
Sirius: a red stan. thinks he can sing, the whole castle practically begs him to stop. sings too much when drunk. after a heartbreak (even the slightest one) he'll be singing screaming all too well and the last time until his lungs can't take it
Remus: refuses to admit he likes her, like the complete snob he is, but everyone hears him singing closure in the shower (evermore stan)
Peter: likes some songs (debut stan) but knows 0 (zero) lyrics, he's always making them up (which is extremely funny, ask anyone)
Lily: loves songs like picture to burn and should've said no and basically the more badass the better. exclusively listened to reputation non-stop for a whole month after sn*pe called her a mudblood
Mary: can and will sing any song by Taylor, the only person who knows the right lyrics to EVERY SINGLE SONG
Marlene: "who's taylor swift" she asked moments before she became her greatest fan
Alice: completly obcessed with 3 songs but only knew they were taylor's when somebody told her. "so that's what they're all talking about!"
Dorcas: fearless stan. always humming under her breath (which is extremely cute and drives Marlene crazy)

Songs that make me think of the Marauders (PART TWO)
(part one)
Everything Happens For A Reason (Madison Beer)
Remus, after the Prank, completely heartbroken and completely confused… when did Sirius stop loving him in that sweet, gentle way he’d always promised to?
When did Sirius start seeing him as the monster he's always sworn Remus isn't?
I used to believe That everything happens for a reason But I just can't find a reason You'd wanna hurt me so bad
Can't get no relief Time moves on with the seasons But I still can't find a reason You'd wanna hurt me so bad
And what in the world did I do to deserve such a pain in my heart? Guess it's true I'm never getting over you
I still love you I still want you I still love you
If You Love Her (Forest Blakk)
This is the song Sirius and Remus play during their first dance. Fight me.
She always has trouble falling asleep And she likes to cuddle while under the sheets She loves pop songs and dancing, and bad trash TV There's still a few other things She loves love notes and babies and likes giving gifts Has a hard time accepting a good compliment She loves her whole family and all of her friends So if you're the one she lets in
Kiss her with passion as much as you can Run your hands through her hair whenever she's sad And when she doesn't notice how pretty she is Tell her over and over, so she never forgets
Take it If she gives you her heart, don't you break it Let your arms be a place she feels safe in She's the best thing that you'll ever have On days when it feels like the whole world might cave in Stand side by side and you'll make it She'll love you if you love her like that
cowboy like me (Taylor Swift)
Sirius and Remus go on the run together after James’ death. Not at first - they meet up in a bar about three months after. But after that three months they’re inseparable again - desperately in love, playing Robin Hood, driving a blue Mustang into the sunset - they’re miserable, sure, but they’re also very good at pretending they’re not.
And you asked me to dance But I said, "dancing is a dangerous game" Oh, I thought, this is gonna be one of those things I've got some tricks up my sleeve Takes one to know one You're a cowboy like me Never wanted love, just a fancy car Now I'm waiting by the phone
Perched in the dark Telling all the rich folks anything they wanna hear Like it could be love I could be the way forward, only if they pay for it You're a bandit like me, eyes full of stars Hustling for the good life Never thought I'd meet you here It could be love We could be the way forward, and I know I'll pay for it
And the skeletons in both our closets plotted hard to mess this up And the old men that I've swindled really did believe I was the one And the ladies lunching have their stories about when you passed through town But that was all before I locked it down Now you hang from my lips like the Gardens of Babylon With your boots beneath my bed Forever is the sweetest con
And I'm never gonna love again I'm never gonna love again
no body, no crime (Taylor Swift)
Sirius Black’s soulmate, James Potter, is dead. And Sirius knows who did it.
He just can’t prove it.
(I rewrote it for y'all. You're welcome.)
Cell Block Tango (from "Chicago")
The Dark Marauders. James, Sirius, Remus, Peter, Lily, Severus, and Regulus - performing uselessly sensual dance routines in Azkaban because why the fuck not? Their Dark Lord is dead, and all they have left of him is their loyalty and a bout of snakes and skulls on their arms.
(Wrote this one too. Again, you're welcome.)
Broken Bones (KALEO)
Remus Lupin is a werewolf, and every full moon, this song runs through his mind as James and Sirius envelop his naked body in their arms and tell him he’s beautiful, and so so good, and they’ll love him forever and ever and ever, they promise. And for a single, measley second every time, Remus believes them.
Hoping things might go my way Some might say I talk loud, see if I care Unlike them, don't walk away from my fear I've busted bones, broken stones, looked the devil in the eye I hope he's going to break these chains
Another hard day, no water, no rest I saw my chance, so I got him at last I took his six shooter, put two in his chest He'll never say a word no more The devil got him good for sure
Ain't got no place to call a home Only chains and broken bones Ain't got no place to call a home So come on lord, won't you take me now? So come on lord, what you waiting for?
Oh, the devil's going to make me a free man The devil's going to set me free The devil's going to make me a free man The devil's going to set me free...
traitor (Olivia Rodrigo)
Sirius is innocent. Remus believes that. Remus knows that. He knows it. Because he doesn’t know how he’ll live if he’s wrong. Well, okay, he knows -
He won’t.
Brown guilty eyes and little white lies Yeah, I played dumb but I always knew That you'd talk to her, maybe did even worse I kept quiet so I could keep you
And ain't it funny how you ran And ain't it funny how you said you were friends? Now it sure as hell don't look like it
Ain't it funny all the twisted games All the questions you used to avoid?
Ain't it funny? Remember I brought her up, and you told me I was paranoid
You betrayed me And I know that you'll never feel sorry for the way I hurt Loved you at your worst, but that didn't matter
God, I wish that you had thought this through Before I went and fell in love with you When she's sleeping in the bed we made Don't you dare forget about the way you betrayed me
Never Not (Lauv)
The Marauders, slowly breaking apart over the years. James and Lily settle in London, and Sirius and Remus run off to travel the world. They split off somewhere in Asia and forget to call. Peter cleans dishes in Hogwarts’ kitchens and Severus spends his time in those dungeons, teaching potions and writing letters he never sends. Regulus holes up in Grimmauld Place, never marrying, never moving. James and Lily divorce when Harry is ten, and go their separate ways. They always move forward, but -
They also always look back.
I lost myself, seventeen Then you came, found me There's a room in my heart with the memories we made Took them down but they're still in their frames There's no way I could ever forget
For as long as I live, and as long as I love I will never not think about you From the moment I loved I knew you were the one And no matter whatever I do I will never not think about you
What we had only comes once in a lifetime For the rest of mine, I'll always compare To the room in my heart with the memories we made Nights on fifth, in between B and A
Didn't we have fun? Didn't we have fun, looking back?
We were so beautiful We were so tragic No other magic could ever compare...
Scared To Live (The Weeknd)
Sirius and Remus after twelve years apart, having no idea what to do with each other. They were in love once - are in love? - but those days are long gone. Sirius sees how Remus looks at Tonks, but knows Remus can’t ever really love her, much as he likes her, because his heart has forgotten every word but Sirius' name. And Sirius is happier than he thought he’d ever get to be without James, really, though he’s far from happy or even content - is this all there is? Is this how they die? Is this their ending?
No. No. No, after everything, this can’t be it - this cannot be it.
(But if he dies, well... he hopes Remus lives on without him. Happier.
I guess.)
When I saw the signs, I should've let you go But I kept you beside me And if I held you back, at least I held you close Should have known you were lonely
I know things will never be the same Time we lost will never be replaced I'm the reason you forgot to love So don't be scared to live again Be scared to live again No, don't be scared to live again
You always miss the chance to fall for someone else Cause your heart only knows me They try to win your love, but there was nothing left They just made you feel lonely
I am not the man I used to be Did some things I couldn't let you see Refused to be the one who taints your heart
I hope you know that I've been praying that you find yourself We fell apart, right from the start I should have made you my only
So don't be scared to live again I said, "don't be scared to live again"
I Know Where I've Been (from "Hairspray! Live")
Remus and Sirius, sad and happy together, alone in Grimmauld Place and dancing deep into the night as this song plays on the record player and they sway. Their whole lives have been war, but in these moments, there is peace.
Fleeting, hopeless peace, but peace nonetheless.
There's a light in the darkness Though the night is black There's a light burning bright Showing me the way But I know where I've been
There's a cry in the distance It's a voice that comes from deep within There's a cry asking why I pray the answer's up ahead Cause I know where I've been
There's a road we've been travelling Lost so many on the way But the riches will be plenty Worth the price we had to pay
There's a dream in the future There's a struggle we have yet to win And there's pride in my heart Cause I know where I'm going And I know where I've been
Brooklyn Baby (Lana Del Rey)
Sirius Black being himself, and James Potter and Remus Lupin being in love with him.
They say I'm too young to love you I don't know what I need They think I don't understand The freedom land of the seventies
I think I'm too cool to know ya You say I'm like the ice, I freeze I'm churning out novels like Beat poetry on Amphetamines
Well, my boyfriend's in a band He plays guitar while I sing Lou Reed I've got feathers in my hair I get down to beat poetry And my jazz collection's rare I can play most anything I'm a Brooklyn baby
They say I'm too young to love you They say I'm too dumb to see They judge me like a picture book By the colors, like they forgot to read I think we're like fire and water I think we're like the wind and sea You're burning up, I'm cooling down You're up, I'm down You're blind, I see
But I'm free I'm free
I'm talking about my generation Talking about that newer nation And if you don't like it, you can beat it Beat it, baby You never liked the way I said it If you don't get it, then forget it Cause I don't have to fucking explain
Yeah, my boyfriend's pretty cool But he's not as cool as me Cause I'm a Brooklyn baby I'm a Brooklyn baby
I Can't Go On Without You (KALEO)
Sirius and Remus are lost to each other, for twelve years and then two more, Sirius locked behind bars and then a Veil and Remus on the run alone and then with a woman he’s somehow fooled himself into thinking he loves.
They’ll be together again. One day. But for now, there’s nothing to do but wait.
Alone.
Well, they thought they were made for each other Only thinking of one another Never thinking just for one second She would take a different attraction
We don't want that We don't want that, oh no I can't go on without you
Oh, so what's the point of breaking my sweet heart? She wanted me to let down my guard Well, you know what they say It's better that way So, you better hush and walk away
Well, was I supposed to wait for you sweetheart? And hide away the shame, yes I keep it all inside Though the thought had crossed my mind! To do all the things I'll regret, we don't want that
I can't, I can't, I can't go on without you I can't go on without you, oh, lord I can't go on without you, babe
Oh, she loves me She loves me not She loves me My love don't love me...
Oh, so what is left but a broken man? Cause nothing hurts like a woman can I can't go on without you...
happier (Olivia Rodrigo)
Sirius as he watches Remus fall in love with Tonks right in front of him, unable to love Sirius the same way after everything. Sirius loves his cousin - he does. He just kind of hates her, too.
There’s been a lot of things in this life he’s been afraid of, but Remus leaving him never even crossed his mind.
That was his mistake, I guess…
Fuck.
You've moved on, found someone new One more girl who brings out the better in you And I thought my heart was attached For all the sunlight of our past But she's so sweet, she's so pretty Does she mean you forgot about me?
And do you tell her she's the most beautiful girl you've ever seen? An eternal love bullshit you know you'll never mean Remember when I believed you meant it when you said it first to me? And now I'm picking her apart Like cutting her down make you miss my wretched heart But she's beautiful, she looks kind, she probably gives you butterflies
Say you love her, baby, just not like you loved me And think of me fondly when your hands are on her
I hope you're happy, just not like how you were with me I'm selfish, I know, I can't let you go So find someone great, don't find no one better I hope you're happy, but don't be happier.
That's The Kind Of Woman (Julia Michaels)
James left Sirius for Lily, and that was okay. Sirius loved Lily, and he loved James, so it was okay. At least he still had Remus.
Well, he did. Until Tonks came along.
It’s okay. Really. Sirius has gone his whole life feeling unloved.
He can die that way too.
OR
James, Sirius, and Remus fell in love in fourth year, and it was wonderful. And then Sirius started to notice things - small things, little things. Like the gentle way James and Remus are with each other, the way they wake each other up with kisses in the morning and dance the night before the full moon, the way their hands fit together the way everyone expected Sirius’ to fit with them, but better.
The way they love each other more than him.
And that’s okay. That’s fine. He wants them to be happy, and they make each other happy. So he lets them go the last day of seventh year, and disappears into the wind never to be seen again, just like their love for him.
Childhood picket fence, smells like confidence Raised with a little more common sense Isn't always on defense Sits up straight and knows how to take a compliment Jealous but the right amount Isn't scared of missing out, missing out's scared of missing her Doesn't buy things to fill voids Doesn't hate the sound of her own voice
Doesn't cry when someone leaves Isn't contradictory Mind takes a break when she falls asleep Always takes her own advice Crosses T's and cuts her ties Figured out sympathize from empathize Doesn't keep those letters in a drawer Doesn't keep a closet full of things she bought and never wore Gives all her attention to the people that are with her She still loves to dance She still loves her sister
If the me I am Walked out that door Would I miss her?
Maybe, a little bit, sure Oh, I love myself, but I'd love her more Yeah, that's the kind of woman I'd leave me for
Quarter Past Midnight (Bastille)
The Marauders steal a Muggle’s pick-up truck and fly down the highway, literally. The lights are bright and the music is loud, and they’re screaming with laughter, dancing and kissing under the stars. It’s that one perfect moment, the one poets write about seeking their whole lives. This is that moment, this is their moment.
They’ll never be this happy again.
It's a quarter past midnight as we cut through the city The streets are getting restless Good times, bad decisions And the sirens are mending some hearts But we're the losers on our back seats Singing love will tear us apart
It's a quarter past midnight, still avoiding tomorrow It's a quarter past midnight, but we're just getting going We keep on running through a red light Like we're trying to burn the night away This is my favorite part Help me piece it all together, darling Before it falls apart
And the speakers are blowing We want the bodies on the billboards Not the lives underneath them And now we're crawling up the walls again And it's a quarter past twelve And you said we'd leave this place in dust And fall from heaven straight through hell We never know what we have We never knew what we had
We keep on running Why are we always chasing after something Like we're trying to throw our lives away?
And the secrets are flowing Our lips are getting looser I don't know what I'm saying We never knew what we had I never know what I've had
Home (Edith Whiskers)
The Marauders remember each other in a haze - well. The ones that are still alive do, that is.
Regulus, falling.
James, fighting.
Lily, screaming.
Sirius, smiling.
Peter, choking.
Remus, crying.
Severus, bleeding.
They all went, and not one peacefully.
If I close my eyes, I can still see them. Laughing.
I do love my ma and pa Not the way that I do love you Well, holy moly, me oh my, you're the apple of my eye Girl, I've never loved one like you Man, oh, man, you're my best friend, I scream it to the nothingness There ain't nothing that I need Well, hot and heavy pumpkin pie, chocolate candy, Jesus Christ Ain't nothing please me more than you
I'll follow you into the park, through the jungle, through the dark Moats and boats and waterfalls, alleyways and pay phone calls I've been everywhere with you We laugh until we think we'll die, barefoot on a summer night Nothing new is sweeter than with you And in the streets, we run afree, like it's only you and me Geez, you're something to see
Oh, home, let me come home Home is whenever I'm with you Oh, home, let me come home Home is wherever I'm with you
I Hate That You're Happy (Tiny Little Houses)
Severus is alone, alone again. Lily’s gone. She’s run off to marry James Potter, the prat, and Severus - Severus doesn’t hope for much in this life, but he holds out hope for her. Because everyone knows she loves James now, but she loved Severus once too… and she still keeps his green ribbon tied around her ring finger, almost like they’re still married in mind.
So Severus keeps his vows to her. He promised her forever - it’s okay, honestly. That forever can be spent apart. He’ll love her anyway.
He'll love her always.
I'm sorry if I ever hurt you And I never kissed you enough And I just have trouble unravelling sometimes The feelings that I kept locked up
And I know it's my own misfortune And I didn't hold tight enough But I found it hard to keep myself whole While drowning in my bitter blood
I'll stay awake again and start feeling The spot where you used to reside And I'll lay beneath these cold empty sheets Huddled and clutching my sides
And I know it's my own misfortune And darling, believe me, I do And you've got your problems, and hell I've got mine But I find it hard that we're through
And I hate when you're with him And I hate when you smile And I hate that for once you don't seem like you've cried And I hate that you've kissed him And I hate that I'm sore But most of all I hate that you're happier than before
And I hate when you're with him And at night you're entwined And I hate that I have to pretend that I'm fine And I hate that I miss you but you miss him more But most of all I hate that you're happier than before Most of all I hate that you're happier than before
Call Your Girlfriend (Clara Mae)
James knows Lily isn’t happy with him. It’s been months, she’s had plenty of time to come around, but she just - she doesn’t love him. She never has. He should’ve seen that, but he was too busy hating the greasy-haired git to realize that Lily has always loved him more than anything else.
Gently, he lets her go. He presses the green ribbon he found in her drawer around her hand, and he kisses her goodbye, and he tells her to go after her happiness, whoever that is. And she smiles at him, the tears in her eyes happy, and she runs away, crashing into Severus’ arms. And they look… they look so perfect together. Like they make so much sense.
It’s okay. James can take it.
Regulus is staring at him. James winks at him, and smiles.
Call your girlfriend It's time you had the talk Give your reasons Say it's not her fault Tell her not to get upset Second guessing everything you've said and done
And when she get upset Tell her that you never meant to hurt no one You just tell her that the only way her heart will mend Is when she learns to love again And it won't make sense right now But you're still her friend
Cloud 9 (Beach Bunny)
James, Sirius, and Remus. It’s an unconventional love story, but not one they feel the need to explain.
They can and will dance together forever, butterbeers in their hands and magic in their eyes, hearts colliding in a messy, three-way kiss.
I don't wanna seem the way I do But I'm confident when I'm with you Lately all I feel is bad and bruised Tired of tripping on my shoes
When I start to tumble from the sky You remind me how to fly Lately, I've been feeling unalive But you bring me back to life
But when he loves me, I feel like I'm floating When he calls me pretty, I feel like somebody Even when we fade eventually to nothing You will always be my favorite form of loving
the last great american dynasty (Taylor Swift)
The Most Ancient and Noble House of Black, and its last heir, Sirius Potter Lupin.
Fuck those assholes. He’ll be as mad as he likes.
Was the heir to the name, and money And the town said "how did a middle class divorcée do it?" The wedding was charming, if a little gauche There's only so far new money goes They picked out a home and called it Holiday House Their parties were tasteful, if a little loud The doctor had told him to settle down It must have been her fault his heart gave out
And they said, "there goes the last great american dynasty" Who knows, if she never showed up what could've been There goes the maddest woman this town has ever seen She had a marvelous time ruining everything
Rebekah gave up on the Rhode Island set forever Flew in all the Bitch Pack friends from the city Filled the pool with champagne and swam with the big names And blew through the money on the boys and the ballet And losing on card game bets with Dalí
There goes the most shameless woman this town has ever seen She had a marvelous time ruining everything
They say she was seen on occasion Pacing the rocks staring out at the midnight sea And in a feud with her neighbor She stole his dog and dyed it key lime green Fifty years is a long time Holiday House sat quietly on that beach Free of women with madness Their men and bad habits, and then it was bought by me
Who knows, if I never showed up what could've been There goes the loudest woman this town has ever seen I had a marvelous time ruining everything
I Don't Believe You (P!nk)
Regulus, alone after Sirius runs away. All alone in a giant house, all alone with his wretched mother and her Death Eater friends, all alone without the only person he’s ever loved.
Sirius never comes back, but Regulus waits at the door for him every day anyway.
(Sirius writes Regulus a million letters. He wonders why he never answers. Not even with a cursive fuck you. Maybe he should go back… maybe - no.
No, best not.
It’s not like Regulus misses him.)
I don't mind it, I don't mind at all It's like you're the swing set and I'm the kid that falls It's like the way we fight, the times I've cried We come too close, and every night The passion's there, so it's gotta be right Right?
I don't mind it, I still don't mind at all It's like one of those bad dreams when you can't wake up It looks like you've given up, you've had enough But I want more, no, I won't stop Because I just know you'll come around Right?
Just don't stand there and watch me fall Cause I still don't mind at all
No I don't believe you When you say, "don't come around here no more" I won't remind you You said we wouldn't be apart No I don't believe you When you say you don't need me anymore So don't pretend to not love me at all
Cause I don't believe you.
Little Miss Perfect (Annapantsu cover)
Regulus Black, the perfect child.
He and his brother are nothing alike. Sirius is rebellious, Regulus is obedient. Sirius is brash, Regulus is controlled. Sirius is bravery, Regulus is misery. They have nothing in common.
Well -
Except their hearts, bothing beating for a boy named James Potter with twinkling eyes. A boy only one of them will get to kiss.
Regulus is happy to be the one who’s lost out. At least, that’s what he tells himself as he stares up at the white light, the surface too far above to reach.
Straight hair, straight A's, straightforward Straight path, I don't cut corners I make a point to be on time Head of the student council I don't black out at parties I jam to Paul McCartney If you ask me how I'm doing I'll say...
Well, hmm Often I ask myself, "what did I do?" To get as far as I've gotten A pretty girl walks by my locker My heart gives a flutter But I don't dare utter a word Cause that would be absurd behavior For little miss perfect
No, I can't risk falling off my throne Love is something I don't even know Straight hair, straight A's, straightforward Straight girl Little miss perfect That's me You don't even know Rewind, induce amnesia Deny the truth, that's easier You're just confused, believe her When she says there's nothing there It's never worth it When you're little miss perfect
Achilles Come Down (Gang Of Youths)
Sirius, running from his family and his predetermined madness, his wildness carrying him so far he makes a circle.
Remus, hiding from love and freedom, his happiness stitched from his skin in ugly, painful scars.
James, watching his best friends tear each other apart, too blind with love to see the monsters they’ve made of each other.
Children, come down.
Achilles, Achilles, Achilles come down Won't you get up off, get up off the roof? You're scaring us and all of us, some of us love you Achilles, it's not much but there's proof You crazy assed cosmonaut, remember your virtue Redemption lies plainly in truth Just humour us, Achilles Achilles, come down Won't you get up off, get up off the roof?
The self is not so weightless, nor whole and unbroken Remember the pact of our youth? Where you go, I'm going So jump and I'm jumping Since there is no me without you Soldier on, Achilles Achilles, come down Won't you get up off, get up off the roof?
Hurt and grieve, but don't suffer alone Engage with the pain as a motive Today of all days, see How the most dangerous thing is to love How you will heal and you'll rise above
Achilles, jump now You are absent of cause or excuse So self-indulgent and self-referential No audience could ever want you You crave the applause, yet hate the attention Then miss it, your act is a ruse It is empty, Achilles, so end it all now It's a pointless resistance for you
Achilles, just put down the bottle Don't listen to what you've consumed It's chaos, confusion, and wholly unworthy Of feeding and it's wholly untrue You may feel no purpose nor a point for existing It's all just conjecture and gloom And there may not be meaning, so find one and seize it Do not waste your self on this roof
Feel your breath course frankly below And see life as a worthy opponent Crowned by an overture bold and beyond Ah, it's more courageous to overcome You want the acclaim, it's not worth it, Achilles More poignant than fame or the taste of another
Don't listen, Achilles, but be real and just jump You dense motherfucker (you're worth more, Achilles) You will not be more than a rat in the gutter (so much more than a rat)
You want my opinion (no one asked your opinion) My opinion you've got You asked for my counsel (no one asked for your thoughts)
I gave you my thoughts Be done with this now, and jump off the roof Can you hear me Achilles? I'm talking to you
Throw yourself into the unknown with pace and a fury defiant Clothe yourself in beauty untold and see life as a means to a triumph
Achilles, come down.
This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things (Taylor Swift)
Remus gets super drunk after the Prank and gives a fucking performance on top of the coffee table in front of the entirety of Gryffindor. Sirius is bright red. James is on the verge of tears. Severus is gaping. And Remus is seething.
You woke the wolf. Now watch it bite.
And there are no rules when you show up here Bass beat rattling the chandelier Feeling so Gatsby for that whole year So why'd you have to rain on my parade? I'm shaking my head, I'm locking the gates
It was so nice being friends again There I was giving you a second chance But you stabbed me in the back while shaking my hand And therein lies the issue, friends don't try to trick you And so I took an axe to a mended fence But I'm not the only friend you've lost lately If only you weren't so shady
Here's a toast to my real friends They don't care about the HE SAID, SHE SAID And here's to my baby He ain't reading what they call me lately And here's to my mama Had to listen to all this drama And here's to you... Cause forgiveness is a nice thing to do
Hahaha, I can't even say it with a straight face!
This is why we can't have nice things, darling Because you break them, I had to take them away This is why we can't have nice things, honey Did you think I wouldn't hear all the things you said about me? This is why we can't have nice things
right where you left me (Taylor Swift)
Remus is pretty sure he died on October 31, 1981. He’s not sure why his body’s still moving.
Friends break up, friends get married Strangers get born, strangers get buried Trends change, rumors fly through new skies But I'm right where you left me Matches burn after the other Pages turn and stick to each other Wages earned and lessons learned But I'm right where you left me
Help, I'm still at the restaurant Still sitting in a corner I haunt Cross-legged in the dim light They say, "what a sad sight" I swear you could hear a hair pin drop Right when I felt the moment stop Glass shattered on the white cloth Everybody moved on I stayed there Dust collecting on my pinned-up hair They expected me to find somewhere Some perspective, but I sat and stared
Did you ever hear about the girl who got frozen? Time went on for everybody else, she won't know it She's still 23 inside her fantasy How it was supposed to be Did you hear about the girl who lives in delusion? Break-ups happen every day, you don't have to lose it She's still 23 inside her fantasy And you're sitting in front of me
At the restaurant, when I was still the one you want Cross-legged in the dim light, everything was just right
I'm sure that you got a wife out there Kids and Christmas, but I'm unaware Cause I'm right where I cause no harm, mind my business If our love died young, I can't bear witness And it's been so long But if you ever think you got it wrong
I'm right where you left me You left me no choice but to stay here forever...
Every Day a Little Death (from “The Count of Monte Cristo”)
Remus Lupin, waiting.
Waiting, waiting, waiting…
For what, he’s not sure. Maybe death. Maybe madness.
Right now all he’s got is lonely.
Lonely, lonely, lonely; la, la, la…
Come out, come out, wherever you are, Peter. Come out and kill me, you coward.
Another day, another week Another month, another year Another day, another night Until it’s day again The sun has fled, I go to bed And scratch a line on the wall Another day, where nothing changes at all
And everyday shuffles by like the day before! On its way to the blackest of skies And everyday a little death comes and paces the floor! And a little bit more of me dies... Another day, another week Another month, another year Another night I spend alone Until it’s day again Our little star has moved away And all the world is a blur I only see I am not me Without her
Everyday a little death for everyday I die Everyday a little death and still I know not why...
He will come back! Perhaps but still… He will return to me! Another prayer You’ve got to live for today I will live when we’re together again Everyday I will pray until then
And everyday another prayer will bring him close to me And every night out little star we will share The one day when I open my eyes He will be standing right over there, one day
There’s something I must say I wanted to protect you
I wish there was a way I could make it untrue I heard the news today I fear the worst has happened An accident occurred He is dead! Dead and gone Rest in peace may flights of angels sing him to his rest Let me hold and help to heal you!
Everyday a little death...
tolerate it (Taylor Swift)
Remus Lupin. Abandoned, alone, aimless. Unwanted, unseen, unloved. Mad, morbid, monster.
He wonders if in the next life, he’ll be dealt some better cards.
Best not hope. Best not be greedy. He could be dead -
Isn’t sadness better?
I sit and watch you reading with your head low I wake and watch you breathing with your eyes closed I sit and watch you I notice everything you do or don't do You're so much older and wiser and I
I wait by the door like I'm just a kid Use my best colors for your portrait Lay the table with the fancy shit And watch you tolerate it
I greet you with a battle hero's welcome I take your indiscretions all in good fun I sit and listen I polish plates until they gleam and glisten You're so much older and wiser and I While you were out building other worlds, where was I? Where's that man who'd throw blankets over my barbed wire? I made you my temple, my mural, my sky Now I'm begging for footnotes in the story of your life Drawing hearts in the byline Always taking up too much space or time You assume I'm fine But what would you do if I
Break free and leave us in ruins Took this dagger in me and removed it Gain the weight of you then lose it Believe me, I could do it! If it's all in my head tell me now Tell me I've got it wrong somehow I know my love should be celebrated But you tolerate it
Téir Abhaile Riu (Celtic Woman)
Sirius being Sirius and Remus and James trying to reign him in. I don’t know. Just vibes, I guess - three soft little gays living out a domestic half-insane life on a little farm in Wales, not a mile from the ashen sea.
Stay here and never you mind The lights of the town are blinding you The sailors they come and they go But listen to what's reminding you Handsome men surrounding you Dancing a reel around you
Listen to the music flow I'm falling for the flow of home I'm home to dance till dawning
Stay awhile and we'll dance together now As the light is falling We'll reel away till the break of day And dance together till morning
No One Knows Us (BANNERS, Carly Paige)
James, Sirius, and Remus are queerplatonic partners. Well, James is theirs - Sirius and Remus are dating. In love. But they and James, they’re not. Not that it matters - every assumes, from their atypical affection, that they are.
James wishes he could be with them, sometimes. The way he wants. Like it’s normal. Without all the prying eyes.
He wonders if he stole a pirate ship and sailed them somewhere else, if it would be any different. Any easier.
Loving the right people shouldn’t be a burden.
Wish I could kiss you when I wanna Without all the fear and all the drama Kill to hold your hand in public I could try to fight the feeling Dull it down like sleeping without dreaming
I wanna push you up against the wall Want them all to hear me call you baby I know it's never gonna happen And I've learned to accept that I accept that
I need you closer Can we go somewhere? No one knows us Leave our world behind We can hole up in a motel room Where no one knows us
See You Again (Carrie Underwood)
The Marauders as they die, one by one. James too early, Sirius too soon, Remus too late. Reunited wherever wizards go when they die, after a long, hard road of what felt like a whole lot of goddamn nothing.
But here they are, at last: alone no longer.
Said goodbye, turned around And you were gone, gone, gone Faded into the setting sun, slipped away But I won't cry cause I know I'll never be lonely For you are the stars to me You are the light I follow
I can hear those echoes in the wind at night Calling me back in time, back to you In a place far away where the water meets the sky The thought of it makes me smile You are my tomorrow
Sometimes I feel my heart is breaking But I stay strong and I hold on cause I know...
I will see you again This is not where it ends I will carry you with me Til I see you again I will see you again...
Bloom (The Paper Kites)
James and Sirius and Remus, loving each other. And not knowing what queerplatonic partners are until Severus and Lily shove a Muggle book into their hands with sweet, manic grins.
“Oh,” James says, with wonder. Sirius kisses him. Remus takes his hand. James looks at them, his eyes wide and twinkling. “Oh, that’s us.”
In the morning when I wake And the sun is coming through Oh, you fill my lungs with sweetness, And you fill my head with you
Shall I write it in a letter? Shall I try to get it down? Oh, you fill my head with pieces Of a song I can't get out
Can I take it to a morning Where the fields are painted gold And the trees are filled with memories Of the feelings never told?
When the evening pulls the sun down, And the day is almost through, Oh, the whole world it is sleeping, But my world is you
Can I be close to you?
Me and My Husband (Mitski)
Sirius and James. Fight me.
(Oh, and Remus - hopelessly in love with them and chasing after their shenanigans as the world stretches out before them, endless.)
I steal a few breaths from the world for a minute And then I'll be nothing forever And all of my memories And all of the things I have seen will be gone With my eyes, with my body, with me
But me and my husband, we're doing better It's always been just him and me together So I bet all I have on that furrowed brow
And I'm the idiot with the painted face In the corner, taking up space But when he walks in, I am loved, I am loved And at least in this lifetime, we're sticking together Me and my husband, we're sticking together
You & Jennifer (bülow)
Regulus, angry and bitter, left alone in his big black bed wondering what’s so fucking amazing about Lily Evans that could make James want her more than him.
OR
Remus, so fucking in love with his two best friends… his two best friends, who are so fucking in love with each other, who look at each other like they’re the world, who fuck Remus when the world is ending. His two best friends… assholes.
Listen, no, we don't need to be enemies Ain't got a vision of us in the future with a white picket fence and eternal decisions Now I'm sitting here wondering, when did this all start?
Would rather be the girl that got away than be under your thumb Don't need to spend no more time on you, not like I was in love Not that I'm having a nervous breakdown, I'm just let down You don't know what that's like though to wait up all night So I thank you for teaching me how I could live without you Never needed me, I don't need you
Fuck you and Jennifer, I know that you're out with her Go pretend that you're just friends I'll pretend that I'm not hurt I know all the shit I heard, you can take these bitter words Fuck you and Jennifer Go fucking make love to her
Soon You’ll Get Better (Taylor Swift, The Chicks)
James, surrounded by people he can’t fix.
James, holding a screaming Sirius against his chest as he sobs and shakes from the fifth nightmare that week.
James, brushing salve across the scars of a terrified and bruised Remus after yet another full moon.
James, trying to lure a quiet and cold Peter back to them with candy as he recedes even further away into Slytherin robes.
James, fucking Lily; James, kissing Severus; James, touching Regulus -
James, doomed to love people he can’t help.
The buttons of my coat were tangled in my hair I didn't tell you I was scared That was the first time we were there Holy orange bottles, each night I pray to you Desperate people find faith, so now I pray too And I say to you
I know delusion when I see it in the mirror You like the nicer nurses, you make the best of a bad deal I just pretend it isn't real I'll paint the kitchen neon, I'll brighten up the sky I know I'll never get it, there's not a day that I won't try And I'll say to you
And I hate to make this all about me But who am I supposed to talk to? What am I supposed to do if there's no you? This won't go back to normal, if it ever was It's been years of hoping, and I keep saying it because cause I have to
Soon you'll get better Soon you'll get better You'll get better soon Cause you have to.
Dance Alone (Blanks)
James Potter being his usual idiotic adorable self. (It’s just the vibes, man.)
Been staring at the wall today, to find some hidden meaning My momma called to ask me how I'm feeling I've been running out of things to think So what's the point of dreaming? Called all my friends cause I cant get along with all my demons And I've been watching from a distance how the seasons change
Been staring at the wall today, still looking for some meaning I tried talking to myself for a change to ask me how I'm feeling I've been running out of room to think I need a higher ceiling
I've been lost, lost in the rhythm lately I don't know, know how to dance alone
Strawberry Blond (Mitski)
James falls in love with Sirius first - make no mistake, it was absolutely Sirius first. Because Sirius was just so bright, and so lovely, and so daring, and he made James laugh as they ran and drove and flew for miles without a direction. Anything for a touch.
And then there came Remus - beautiful, sweet, kind Remus, his eyes so gentle and his smiles so pure, and James wanted to hold him forever, wanted to take his hand and dive right into the sun, wanted to burst into flames. Anything for a taste.
And then Sirius and Remus fell in love with each other, and now James watches them from the outside, grinning behind tears and thinking, Oh god. I’m happy.
I love everybody because I love you When you stood up, walked away, barefoot And the grass where you lay left a bed in your shape I looked over it and I ached
I love everybody because I love you I don't need the city, and I don't need proof All I need, darling, is a life in your shape I picture it soft and I ache
Reach out the car window, trying to hold the wind You tell me you love her, I give you a grin Oh, all I ever wanted was a life in your shape So I follow the white lines, keep my eyes on the road as I ache
Look at you, strawberry blond Fields rolling on, I love it when you call my name Can you hear the bumblebees swarm? Watching your arm, I love it when you look my way
FML (Arizona Zervas)
James has a habit of falling for people so fierce he can never refuse them. Regulus is just the last one - the one he keeps, even if he dies still trying to figure out how.
(This is the James and Regulus theme song, I’m calling it.)
I might let you drive me crazy Usually I ain't the type to stay Cause you could fall in, and go psycho Ain't no telling where this might go But I take my chances either way
You look like somebody that could really hold it down You look like somebody that would always stick around I know you probably crazy All my friends said stay away but that shit just don't faze me Got a little bit of sass, I like that You don't take no shit, yeah you fight back Never let a dude hit it on the first night I can't even sleep over til I wife that All these bitches in my phone, hit the boy But I've been curving everyone for you Girl I would give you every single password All you gotta do is let me through
Imma keep it honest, I know that you got a plan I know you ain't perfect, but basic bitches never last I don't usually do this type of shit So baby trust me when I tell you that I'm all about it Yeah, I might fall in love and let you fuck my life up Just so I could go and write a song about it
Last man left you brokenhearted, let me treat you right If you need me I could pull up any night You just say the words, girl, I don't need a reason Give me something more than just a lover on the weekend
Come and fuck my life up.
Lay Me Down (Sam Smith)
If James married Regulus instead, but the war still tore them apart and to shreds.
They still fall, they still die, they still lose… but James is captivated by grey eyes rather than green ones, at least in this lifetime. At least for now.
Yes, I do, I believe that one day I will be where I was Right there, right next to you And it's hard, the days just seem so dark The moon, and the stars are nothing without you Your touch, your skin, where do I begin? No words can explain the way I'm missing you Deny this emptiness, this hole that I'm inside These tears, they tell their own story Told me not to cry when you were gone But the feeling's overwhelming, it's much too strong
Can I lay by your side, next to you? You And make sure you're alright I'll take care of you I don't want to be here if I can't be with you
Forever (... is a long time) (Halsey)
Remus didn’t know anyone could love him, the way he is. You can’t blame him for letting James and Sirius slip through his fingers when he didn’t know they would’ve stayed forever.
He wonders if happiness still sounds like his name on their lips.
I spent a long time watering a plant made out of plastic And I cursed the ground for growing green
I spent a long time substituting honest with sarcastic And I cursed my tongue for being mean
Weightless, breathless, destitute Motionless and absolute He cut me open, sucked the poison from an aging wound Now fifty thousand walking deads would cower at this small brunette It's a nice surprise knowing six feet high Would reach and grab the moon if I should ask
Or just imply that I want you to be more light So I could look inside his eyes And get the colors just right
But love built provinces, callouses, break promises Cause I could never hold a perfect thing and not demolish it What am I thinking? What does this mean? How could somebody ever love me?
"Tell him he's got bad news coming..."
Used To This (Camila Cabello)
James and Sirius, crazy kids in mad love in a big Muggle city, dancing and kissing under the lights every night… and then meeting Remus, and wondering if all these years they’ve been mistaking magic for something else, because this, love, this is what magic is.
No, I never liked San Francisco Never thought it was nothing special Til you kissed me there No, I never liked windy cities But I think maybe when you're with me I like everywhere
It's the strangest feeling Midnight, I'm not leaving No, for once, I think I'll stay I say your name, just listen Doesn't it sound different? Never whispered it this way
It's gonna take me a minute But I could get used to this The feeling of your fingertips The feeling of another kiss Like every tattoo on your skin I'm memorizing every inch
The callouses on your fingers I admired them from a distance Now they're on my cheek
Oh, I've known you forever Now I know you better Let's just get carried away And it bears repeating Now my heart's bleeding When you tell me that you'll stay
It's gonna take me a minute But I could get used to this I could get used to this...
Love Me Like You (Little Mix)
You cannot tell me James and Sirius did not stand on top of the Gryffindor table in the Great Hall and serenade Remus with this while he covered his bright red face with his hands and damn near cried with embarrassment and laughter, because they did. I promise you, they did.
I solemnly swear.
Darling, he can't buy my love It's you I'm dreaming of
so baby, baby Come and save me
Last night I lay in bed so blue Cause I realized the truth They can't love me like you I've tried to find somebody new Baby, they ain't got a clue Can't love me like you
Come Home With Me (from “Hadestown”)
Sirius and James tripping over themselves trying to say hi the first time they meet Remus, his nose buried in a book in a small cafe, at a table by the window in a dress covered in sunflowers, his cheeks pink and his smile blinding.
OR
James, tripping over himself to win Severus over, who just isn’t having it. (Fuck off, Potter.) (Please?) (No.)
You wanna talk to her?
Yes!
Go on. Don't come on too strong.
Come home with me.
Who are you?
The man who's gonna marry you
Is he always like this?
Yes
Your name is like a melody
A singer, is that what you are?
I also play the lyre...
Oh, a liar, AND a player too! I've met too many men like you.
Oh, no. I'm not like that.
He's not like any man you've met.
That's what I'm working on - A song to fix what's wrong. Take what's broken, make it whole; A song so beautiful, it brings the world back into tune, back into time. And all the flowers will bloom... When you become my wife.
Oh, he's crazy. Why would I become his wife?
Maybe because he'll make you feel alive.
Alive? That's worth a lot... What else ya got?
You Belong With Me (Taylor Swift)
Sirius and James, unable to figure out why they're so bothered by the amount of people who have suddenly started flirting with Remus after the summer of fifth year.
He's just... he's theirs. Their werewolf. Their scrawny motherfucker. Their Moony.
Just.
Theirs.
Oh.
She doesn't get your humor like I do She'll never know your story like I do
Walk in the streets with you in your worn-out jeans I can't help thinking this is how it ought to be And you've got a smile that can light up this whole town I haven't seen it in a while You say you're fine, I know you better than that
Standing by and waiting at your backdoor Oh, I remember you driving to my house in the middle of the night I'm the one who makes you laugh when you know you're about to cry And I know your favorite songs, and you tell me about your dreams Think I know where you belong, think I know it's with me...
Have you ever thought, just maybe, you belong with me? You belong with me.
Scrawny (Wallows)
I just really love Remus Lupin, okay?
Used to be level with all my friends Still wear the same shoes I did back then I don't think they've ever been untied I can't regret the things I don't try I'd switch it up but I don't like change Only content if things stay the same Don't care to watch the story unfold Hate feeling like I'm not in control I've been sleeping with the light on I tend to freak myself out Will you come a little closer?
I say the wrong shit at the right times If I'm offending them, I don't mind Maybe they all should listen to me It isn't all about what you see Question though, how do I look to you? Am I so thin that you can see through? I've been sleeping with the light off I wanted to remember Will you come a little closer now?
I'll be one of those people you remember They'll be looking at us when were together I'll be a mannequin you can dismember You don't like my clothes but you still like my smile Take me home to mom but it'll take awhile They might think they're cooler than me by a mile I can still have wisdom and look like a child
I'm a scrawny motherfucker with a cool hairstyle
Hate You (Seann Bowe)
Severus and Lily after the Incident. Still loving each other, but not knowing why or how. Having a million things to say, but never the words.
I'm sorry. What a tragic fucking joke.
Look at me now, such a pitiful place You found someone I thought that'd help erase These crazy thoughts that we were never broken You can't see red flags through rose colored glasses!
I killed you in my head now If I see you out with friends I'll just tell myself that it's a phantom or illusion Guess I haven't chosen which
I hate that I miss you, I hate that I'm lost I hate those dead flowers you taped to your wall I hate that you're okay and I can't move on I hate that somehow this is all my fault! I hate that I'm wide awake watching the door I hate these long showers sitting on the floor I hate in the end it was me who was wrong I hate that I don't really hate you at all
But I kind of wish I did...
I don't really hate you at all.
Bitter And The Sweetness (The Ready Set)
James and Sirius and Remus, dancing in the rain. Sirius is screaming up at the sky, and James is pulling Remus against him, quelling his shivering in an instant.
“I love you,” he whispers, and Remus beams, throwing his arms around his neck and kissing him as Sirius screams, “ELECTRIFY ME MOTHERFUCKER!” at the clouds.
That’s love, bitch.
Troublemaker look on your face Followed by a smile and I melt away It ain't always been this lovely We turn the ice and start a fire, melt away
It don't happen overnight It's laughing after fights Knowing which song I should sing to make you smile again Your favorite flowers How I know before you say, "It's gonna be okay"
Love, I think we got time to make mistakes Bitter and the sweetness, I just love the taste
You give me trouble in the best way When you let your hair down I can't look away You've just always been that lovely We turn the dark into light You'll be staying close
Like the time we got stuck out in the rain When you took my hand said, "Baby, we should stay."
Serenade (BANNERS)
James Potter's ghost, watching over Sirius Black forevermore. You don't just leave your soulmate behind. Never.
Stolen, some people stay a life, some for a moment Some hearts they set a light just to be frozen And so we're out of time, broken But now you've got the chance to travel oceans I hope the world's as wide as you were hoping Don't let heartache cloud your mind
If the days go darker, darling And you lose your way Go on, go on, I'm not beside you But I'll be the song there in the silence Let go, let go, darling, it's over now You're on your own, but I'm on your shoulder I'll always be your serenade, serenade, I I'll always be your serenade
They told you It's not the being drunk, it's being sober That's when it really hits you that it's over It's hard to say goodbye So you can keep me Somewhere out of reach but if you need me Just hum these memories and you can feel me I'm always standing by Go and write your story, darling You will find your place
You can always remember that I'm here to ease your mind I'm on your side and You can call me and just like that I'll sing a song to bring you home, babe
It's Quiet Uptown (from "Hamilton")
Remus, alone. His husband gone, his friends dead, his family murdered. Nothing left for him, until...
"Padfoot."
A sheepish smile.
"Hi, Moony."
Remus takes a deep breath. Sirius reaches for his hand.
They'll figure it out.
There are moments that the words don't reach There is suffering too terrible to name You hold your child as tight as you can And push away the unimaginable The moments when you're in so deep It feels easier to just swim down And so they move uptown And learn to live with the unimaginable
I spend hours in the garden, I walk alone to the store And it's quiet uptown, I never liked the quiet before And I pray, that never used to happen before
If you see him in the street Walking by himself, talking to himself, have pity You would like it uptown, it's quiet uptown He is working through the unimaginable His hair has gone grey He passes every day They say he walks the length of the city You knock me out, I fall apart Can you imagine?
Look at where we are Look at where we started I know I don't deserve you But hear me out That would be enough If I could spare his life If I could trade his life for mine He'd be standing here right now And you would smile and that would be enough
I don't pretend to know The challenges we're facing I know there's no replacing what we've lost And you need time But I'm not afraid I know who I married Just let me stay here by your side That would be enough
There are moments that the words don't reach There's a grace too powerful to name We push away what we can never understand We push away the unimaginable They are standing in the garden Standing there side by side She takes his hand It's quiet uptown
Forgiveness, can you imagine? Forgiveness, can you imagine? If you see him in the street Walking by her side, talking by her side, have pity They are going through the unimaginable
Dynasty (MIIA)
The Marauders are dead and gone, did you know?
But they were great once. Unstoppable. Invincible, young, in love.
Can you tell? Can you...
Remember?
Some days, it's hard to see if I was a fool or you a thief Made it through the maze to find my one in a million And now you're just a page torn from the story I'm living The scar I can't reverse And the more it heals, the worse it hurts Gave you every piece of me, no wonder it's missing Don't know how to be so close to someone so distant
And all I gave you is gone Tumbled like it was stone It all fell down, it all fell down
Thought we built a dynasty that heaven couldn't shake Thought we built a dynasty like nothing ever made Thought we built a dynasty forever couldn't break up.
Dancing After Death (Matt Maeson)
Oh. It's you. You're here.
I never thought I'd see you again.
Do I know better than this? You're a word that I can't forget Though the thought rattles my brain Will you fold or will you remain?
If I don't get better than this man in my skin If I let go, would you hold on? Would we fly? Is it safer if we just say that we tried? Are we laughing at the danger?
As the sun waits to eclipse And the taste teases my lips I'm too tired to wrestle with it Will we burn, or will we repent?
Are we dancing after death, you and I?

heyo! can i have a marauders era ship 🚢 ? my pronouns are she/her and i’m straight. i am an intj, so i’m very introverted and it takes me awhile to warm up to people. i also sing, play guitar (mostly old music or taylor swift) and dance a little bit. i also love reading and have a hippy sense of style. can’t wait to see what you come up with! :)
Hello hello!! ❤️ Your ship awaits under the cut!
Come celebrate 500 with me!
I ship you with: James Potter!
James may be a chaotic force, but trust me
He doesn’t mind that you’re pretty introverted
If you sometimes don’t want to go to the huge Gryffindor party, he is 100% to just cuddle in bed
Or take you on a walk through the corridors
Or down to the quidditch pitch to just sit in the grass
Or star gaze
He will never push your buttons or try to make you uncomfortable
It might take you a while to get comfortable around him and he is more than happy to just sit near you and talk about classes or your day
He loves PDA but is 100% cool with it if you don’t like being that affectionate in public
Honestly, James can adapt to any kind of environment
Loves! Your! Singing!
“Dear, can you sing me a song?”
“James, it’s 3am, go to bed.”
“If you sing me a song, I’ll go to bed.”
“You said that like 4 hours ago.”
“Pleaseeeeeee?”
“Ugh, fiiiiine.”
He requests the Beatles
All the time
Please introduce him to other bands
And you play the guitar?????
James will want you to teach him
Because he thinks it’s so cool
Will walk in on you practicing and say:
“Ah, another jam sesh?”
Guitar tutor dates 🥺
He likes it when you have to hold his hand and place his fingers on the strings
He will purposefully mess up just to see your smile
“You’re an idiot, Jamie.” You’ll laugh
“I’m you’re idiot.”
James is that guy at the party that takes out his guitar even though no one fucking asked James!!
James can “dance”
I don’t think you can classify his body movements as dancing
You can choose evil and never teach him to properly dance and watch him suffer
It’s funnier that way
He loves watching you dance though
Gets lost in thought
Now James isn’t the biggest reader
But
He will take a nap on you while you read
You’re his comfiest pillow
Will listen to you rant about the plot or certain characters
Sometimes you’ll fall asleep with your book open
And he always makes sure to put a bookmark in or mark your page down somewhere
Loves your style!!!!!!
He wants it!!!
Thinks your so cute
“You, my dear, are absolutely stunning today!”
You take his breath away!!!
Every single day!!!
Loves twirling you around
Give him a makeover!!
James is one of those boyfriends who will tell you that he loves you at least once an hour
“I love you I love you I love you I love you!”
I hope you love your ship! I just had a James feeling!!
