I Like The Idea That Remus And Regulus Had Always Gotten Along. They Just Understood Each Other. They
I like the idea that Remus and Regulus had always gotten along. They just understood each other. They vibed. They were chill, and Remus was the only Marauder who was normal about Jegulus.
Then the Prank rolls around and suddenly there are no 'Marauders' anymore. James pulls a dumb bitch move and, in the most out of character thing he's ever done, chooses Sirius. Oh sure, he's LIVID with Sirius, but he chooses Padfoot anyways.
Peter, despite being a simp for James, sides with Remus, because he sides with the person who can protect him, and he was introduced to the Marauders by Remus beating the everloving shit out of a bully who was picking on Peter and he is now slightly scared of the werewolf.
So Remus and Peter are alone, and even the TEACHERS are beginning to feud over the whole situation. Minnie and Pomfrey love Remus like their own child, and Sprout is 110% willing to join that group, even though she has no idea what's going on, and don't even get me started on Newt Scamander (CoMC Teacher at the time)
Around this time, the Slytherin group was starting to get tired of Snape being an asshole and an idiot, so he kinda got booted, because god knows Reggie knows Remus is a werewolf and he does NOT tolerate people trying out out his friends, be that saying that Lucius is gay as the sky is blue (It's pretty obvious but still) or saying that Barty is intersex, he won't put up with it.
Keep in mind, at this time, Remus is absolutely DROWNING in guilt and self loathing. Like, for Peter, every day is a 24 hour attempt to talk him down from the roof.
So instead of siding with Snape, Regulus replaces him with Remus. At first, everyone is kinda iffy on this, the Marauders don't exactly get along with them, but they kinda grow to 'tolerate' it. (Read: They like it and they love him)
Like, all these pureblooded reluctant Death Eaters, and a gay werewolf. It makes no sense, but it happened. Flash forwards to the beginning of year seven, Euphemia Potter takes James and Sirius to Platform 9 3/4. Remus hasn't spoken to either of them for months, to the point where they were slightly concerned.
Sirius feels bad, James feels bad, Remus wants to not exist anymore in a violent way, and Peter just wants everyone to get along. Euphemia is confused as to why Remus is just towering over against a wall instead of coming to say hi to the other Marauders, weren't they super close? Of course, she has no idea what happened, because James won't tell her The Secret.
Effie: Why is Remus standing alone?
James: It's a long story.
Effie: You and Sirius should go say hello, at least!
James: I don't wish to die today, mum.
Effie: He's your friend, and he clearly needs to talk to someone. Go check on him.
James: Mum, I promise, he does not want us to talk to him.
Effie: Then I will. *Walks away*
So Effie talks to Remus and gets more of the story. Not all, but more. She now understands the basic plot. Sirius fucked up bad, Snape also fucked up bad, James made a bad choice but it isn't his fault, Snape and Remus got hurt. Badly.
And it is at this point, when Sirius and James (Who now is targeting Lucius because Snape has blackmail) are both looking at Remus, that Regulus appears. He arrives alone, as per usual, and the first thing he does is rush over to Remus. Sirius goes completely slackjawed and has the goddamn audacity to be offended that Remus moved on so fast, despite the fact that he did not and is actually barely coping enough to talk or even just eat on a semi-regular basis.
Quickly, Remus and Regulus are joined by Barty Crouch Jr., Evan Rosier and Lucius.
And the only thing Sirius and James hear over the chaos of the station as the group passes them is "So Lucy..." Trailing off as they walk away. And Remus said it. Remus is close enough to these people to call Lucius 'I hate everyone and everything other than my hair' Malfoy by Lucy.
I don't know, I just like the idea of the Slytherins adopting Remus after The Prank.

I like the idea that, as Emi gets more and more information about Aizawa's past, she slowly starts to be able to just be friends with him, platonically, and then we get platonic healing as she moves on to be able to actually maintain a regular relationship and he brings Oboro back from the dead.
I suddenly made a lot of connections in a very short amount of time so I'm here to tell you about it.
In Harry Potter, lycanthropy is a kind of metaphor for HIV/AIDS.
Fenrir Greyback gave it to Remus Lupin when Rem was FIVE.
We just completely overlook that Lupin wasn’t a ‘Casanova’, he was a CSA victim coping badly
Why can't I be happy? And why have all of my comfort characters been hurt so badly? Like, without fail. All of them.
The SCP Foundation as things my friends have said
Bright: Oh I forgot myself at home
Rights: STOP FUCKING ME AND LET ME FINISH THIS LEVEL!
Gears: I don't want you all to die, but if you went missing, I'd say you told me you were running away from this and changing all your information.
Teeth (O5-7): *Distant eldrich shrieking*
Founder (O5-1): I think I just heard my spine snap in half at the mere thought of trying that
Rights: Break my back like a glowstick daddy (Sometimes I think I need new friends)
Bright: So now there are two of us.
Kondraki, to Clef: Why do you look like a gremlin in the intro, but I look normal? Shouldn't that be reversed?
SCP-049: Bonjour bitch.
Kain: I'M A GOOD BOY *Sound of something breaking*
Roth: You say I'm a human in a catsuit, I say you're a cat in a fleshsuit!
Any person in the Foundation about Bright: She might have pneumonia but it's ok.
I have so many more of these, but I want to see if anyone actually wants this before I post more of this. I have come to the conclusion that my friends are all on some kind of strange drug, and I want it.
This is in the Harry Potter BOOKS. Not the movies. Movie Molly Weasley isn't perfect but is at least good. :)
I can just imagine Molly, who wanted all of her boys to be girls, having very high standards for them. Not high in the 'you must all be carbon copies of me' way but in the 'you can be yourself but only if you do it exactly how I think you should' way.
So of course, Percy is an incredibly gifted individual with an IQ off the charts and the uncontrollable desire for success, and Molly knows what he should do with it, but he doesn't like her plan. He doesn't want to go into the Ministry under his father and marry a woman who acts like Molly.
But his friends accept that. His little found family, Oliver Wood, Cedric Diggory, Penelope Clearwater, Cho Chang, maybe even Marcus Flint, when him and Oliver got along, loved him for being himself, and that was enough.
(Also you can't tell me this man is cishet. It isn't possible. He's transmasc and gay as the sun is hot.)
(Also also Penelope and him were mutual beards and she went on to marry Cho Chang)
My entire fanfic career but it's only the ways I've worked the omegaverse in against my will. Seriously. I just DO IT. It happens without my consent.
Like:
Me: So the werewolf bite alters the victim's DNA, meaning that if it happened young enough, it could completely change the victim's biology-
The invasive thoughts: CHANGING THEIR GENETALIA AND GIVING THEM SCENTS, THIS ALSO APPLIES TO THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN WEREWOLVES FOR A VERY LONG TIME. THE SCENTS ARE BARELY DETECTABLE FOR REGULAR HUMANS BUT THEY DO MAKE THE PERSON MORE APPEALING IN BOTH A SEXUAL AND ROMANTIC CONTEXT.
Me: WHERE THE FUCK DID THAT COME FROM?

Ok. I'll write it. But It can't have smut. It's an all fluff fix it fic.
