Sirius doesn’t like the closet in their dorm. Why is that?
“It starts when Sirius trips.
He’s alone in the dorm— James and Peter are serving a detention, as they’re the only ones that got caught for their most recent prank and Remus is in the library, studying with Lily. He’s pretty tired, as well; walking about the dorm, fresh out of the shower, not paying full attention to his surroundings.”
Sirius may not have liked Regulus, but, as an older sibling, I promise you, Sirius sure as hell loved Regulus.
James and Sirius are both kind, but in different ways.
James is sweet and kind. He’s loud and makes it known that he’s a nice person (not necessary on purpose, it’s just how he is). He’s all for grand gestures and big moments.
Sirius is stoic and kind. He does little things for people without even expecting them to know it was him. He fixes things and helps out without making a big deal about it, and people only really notice when their oven is actually getting to temperature or their bathroom door no longer squeaks.
They're the sillies
Remus “he’s too beautiful for me and way out of my league”
And
Sirius “NO I SWEAR IM NOT CRAZY HE IS THE MOST GORGEOUS GUY EVER”
James sits with his legs crossed and Peter sits with one leg pulled up on the chair.
Remus Lupin doesn’t manspread, he sits with his legs crossed like a good little gay boy. Sirius Black manspreads.
PLS tell me more about peter and charity! i'm in love
OH MY GOD YES THANK YOU!!
In Hogwarts, Peter always thought she was really pretty. He was shy and quiet in public, but very funny and charismatic when he got close to people. He’s not a conversationally attractive guy, and he’s pretty insecure about that. He’s very smart, smarter than most people give him credit for. He’s obviously good at transfiguration, being an animagus and all, but I also think he excels in herbology, care of magical creatures, and history of magic. He has a snarky, sometimes cruel side, especially when he’s younger. He likes pranks and he’s the kind of person that can and will hold grudges (he works on that and being unnecessarily cruel when he’s older, don’t worry). When he’s at Hogwarts, he goes on a handful dates, but nothing really sticks. Once he graduates, he decides to focus more on his friends, family, and career. He, again, goes on a date or two, but never makes it past the third date.
Background stuff: 5’3, fat, straight + demisexual+demiromantic, healer who specializes in kiddos, grew up with a single mother and big sister. His father was a muggle who left a little after he was born because the guy couldn’t deal with magic anymore. He visited with his grandparents a lot growing up and was very close with them (they helped his mom out a lot!). He doesn’t have any cousins or uncles/aunts.
Charity, meanwhile, was very popular. She had a big friend group and knew a lot of people outside of that. She’s very, very kind and compassionate, very much a lover, not a fighter, and very pretty. She was a Hufflepuff, so they didn’t talk a lot, but I do think that they were both in the chess club for a little while. She was also very smart, excelling in muggle studies (obvs), charms, herbology, care of magical creatures, and ancient runes. She’s very forgiving and always sees the best in people, but it sometimes goes to the extent of her becoming a doormat and being too trusting of the wrong people. In Hogwarts, she goes out with a lot of guys (and even some girls), even has a couple of relatively longterm partners. Later in life, it’s about the same. She’s a few months out of a 5-odd year relationship when she meets him. Her friend group also gets smaller and closer as she gets older.
Background stuff: either 4’10 or 5’5 (can’t decide if I like the idea of her being taller or shorter than Peter but I’m leaning towards shorter because I think it fits her personality better) quite small, either pansexual or bisexual, muggle studies professor at Hogwarts, grew up as the youngest of four sisters with a loving mom and dad. She’s a pureblood, but she has a muggle grandmother whom she loves dearly. She’s the biggest daddy’s girl in the world and is very close to her sisters. She has a few aunts/uncles on both sides and a lot of cousins. Family reunions are big for her!
Between them, Charity is the more confident one. She asks him out. It’s a private affair, they’re just sitting together and she turns to him and admits that she likes him a lot. They’re ~30 by then. By that point, they’ve been friends of varying degrees of closeness since they were ~24. They’re pretty fast friends and start to like each other relatively soon, but Charity is nervous about taking it further after her recent breakup and Peter doesn’t want to ruin their friendship. When she’s recovered from that, she waits a few years again because she also doesn’t want to ruin it.
They are very much the dates-in-the-park and cute little hangouts kind of couple. They both like romance a lot and enjoy very stereotypical couple dates. They do a lot of cute PDA (i.e. cheek kissing, hand holding, whispering to each other) and really enjoy quiet, domestic time with one another. If they love soppy, sickeningly sweet movies and quoting the sappiest lines at each other.
Moving in together/getting together is easy for them because of how long they’d known each other by then. They both love sleep, so they spend a lot of time cuddling in bed, just existing together. Their favourite thing to do is slowly wake up in the morning, kiss and snuggle for a while, go back to bed, and repeat a few times until they decide it’s time to actually wake up. They also both like cooking and food, so they make it a point to cook, at the very least, breakfast and dinner together. They also bake together quite often.
If they’d gotten together in Hogwarts, I think they would’ve loved going to parties together, but, as they get older, I think it would become less and less important to them. As it stands, they are the most domestic domestics to ever domestic. Charity also gets align with the Marauders really well, even though she thought they were a little obnoxious back in Hogwarts. Peter gets on with her friends (Aurora Sinatra, Sybill Trelawny, Septima Vector, Bathsheda Babbling) as well.
Ultimately, they fit together really nicely and I love them so much. I think they’re so cute!!
Holy shit that got long. I hope you were looking for a lot of info.
YESSS YOU GET IT OMG!!!!!!!!!!
Late to the trend
You’re so right, that’s the point. I love that so much.
miss when the marauders fandom was about the marauders and not an pureblood supremacist apologist fandom.
when sirius and james’s friendship was a major point and not put behind james and regulus
where sirius/andromeda were the actual rebels of the black family not regulus cus he legit didn’t do shit
where james’s character was understood enough to not ship him with what he fought against his entire life ( the potters being one of the only pire blood family that fought against the supremacist movement)
where remus being a werewolf didn’t make him angry and violent on the contrary made him a sensitive and sweet guy
where lily aka the most important character on the series wasn’t cast away
where deatheaters were actually criticized and not babied. where people understood the IMPORTANCE of the concept of deatheaters and how they exist in our world too. that’s why WE HATE THEM
where ships made somewhat sense. because sirius and remus have symbolism there is something greater about them than just being a gay couple. the moon and the stars.
Fuck yeah
i wish i had enough followers that when I say "Lily Evans is a fucking goddess" I would have like, a hundred people would go "Fuck yeah"
Remus Lupin calls Sirius Black baby!! It doesn’t matter that Sirius is 6’5” and 300lbs with a strongman build, covered in tattoos, heavily pierced, and insanely strong (in all ways possible), he is Remus’ baby. He sits on the ground between Remus’ legs and rests on his thighs while he works. He curls up against Remus’ side, arms around his waist, nuzzling into his neck when he feels too vulnerable. He routinely lays on Remus’ lap and silently begs for forehead kisses and praise. Remus refers to Sirius as “baby” in public and then this massive bear of a man walks over and wraps his arms around Remus and pulls him into his chest and people are terrified. But Remus is just like “yeah that’s my baby! Hi baby!” and Sirius kisses his head and calls him the most heart-wrenchingly touching and beautiful names ever… I love them to death omg
Remus Lupin with the bent nose that’s a little too big, with the soft tired amber eyes, with the soft jawline, with the slightly crooked teeth, with the spattered freckles all over his face, with the knobby knees, with the lanky limbs, with the skinny and completely un-muscled body, with the fluffy curly and inexplicably tangled tawny hair, with the awkward and hunched posture.
Remus Lupin who is so strange and weird that no one really understands why/how he’s friends with James and Sirius, and everyone is even more confused when he and Sirius get together and this literal god of a man is with such a dweeb (then you see them together and they’re so sweet and in love that it makes sense). He has to have a hand on Sirius at all times because, if he doesn’t, he’s scared that Sirius will leave and he won’t know where he is. He always wants to be in Sirius’ lap because he’s freezing cold constantly and Sirius runs hot, so he clearly needs to be cuddled, because why else would they be the way they are. He always has to be held and reassured that he is loved because he’s an insecure little baby.
Remus Lupin’s first kiss was Sirius, he lost his virginity to Sirius, his first relationship was with Sirius, because he’s scared of everyone else finding out he’s a werewolf. The only time he was ever called a Casanova was when his friends poked fun at him for so much as talking to someone outside of their direct friend group (Sirius, James, Peter, Lily, Mary, Marlene, etc.). He was an antisocial weirdo that shied away from conversations, and panicked and ran if any confrontation occurred.
Remus Lupin was not an active problem solver, his fight or flight response was permanently set to flight. He lived on chocolate and tea and whatever snacks his friends brought him when he was studying. He wasn’t a natural straight-O student, he had to work his ass off to get Es in most classes and Es and Os in his best ones. He couldn’t work for the life of him because he had a bad back and hips and knees and once hurt himself trying to lift a stack of books the wrong way (with his back not his legs). He’s allergic to pollen and dust and peanuts and he’s lactose intolerant and his stomach is super sensitive. He doesn’t smoke because he’s got asthma and is too scared he’ll get lung cancer or something because he’s drop-dead terrified of literally everything.
Loser kinda-ugly nerd Remus John Lupin needs to make a comeback because he is so cute.
