Before You Say Yes, Get Him Angry. See Him Scared, See Him Wanting, See Him Sick. Stress Changes A Person.

✨The Marauders Yap✨

it's here !! i did it !! y'all asked for a pod wayyyy back in july and i deliberated (stressed) for so long about it but ! it's here <3

this is a very unprofessional podcast where i (and anyone that i drag on along the way) sit and yap about harry potter ! the characters, the ships, fandom etiquette and discourses, engaging in a fandom space, creating for one, jkr etc etc -> it'll all go down here ! we're gonna yap !

Ep 1: The Importance of Fandom -> link here

this is the introductory episode so you know 🙂↕️ give him some grace 🙂↕️

i talk about how i got into the marauders fandom and what it looks like for me, and then about the importance of preserving these spaces given current events!

i yap about representation, community, and creativity and how these things are so so soooo important right now, and how we need to do our Best to keep them here <3

this is a Solo episode, just me and my dodgy mic!

the next ep will be my jkr,,, thesis? dissertation. diss track. application for a defamation claim. whichever is your preferred term for it is, it's my jkr monologue!

but for now, i hope you enjoy listening to a 20 year old wizard fan with the technological skills of a caveman that's been confronted with chatgpt yap away about fandom spaces for 50 minutes !

and thank you @itsradla for the logo and banner <3 again, tech is my worst enemy <3

(guys fr like the sound is not great sorry ! it goes very back and forth because i figured out what was going wrong AS i was editing, so i fixed the worst bits?? but i didn't want to refilm all of it because i liked that it was unrehearsed and sparsely planned ! but i promise from here on out, my mic works and i will not sound like a lawnmower <3)

the black sisters

🖤🖤🖤

if you would consider platonic web weave,

black sisters pretty please!

ofc ofc this is also once again me complaining about spotify changing the colors for the lyrics because this would've looked so much better with the lighter colors :/

Everything that touches the floor is a cat toy

Cat Perspective [yougetcake]

this!

why are all these people I like so much so far away?!?

the tragedy of tumblr is you will inevitably meet people who you should be having a sleepover with. you should be rolling around on their floor and rummaging through their fridge and watching shitty movies with. you should be shopping with should be going out to a cafe with should be wandering through the aquarium with. people who you should be experiencing quotidian joys with... and you cannot! because they live one million miles away

Am I annoying? Yes

Do I give a fuck? Also yes I really am sorry about me all the time

i love when characters lie to themselves in the complete privacy of their own minds

that march 1st deadline seemed so reasonable

that was then

WHAT WE REALLY NEED IS A...

FEMININOMENON !!!

HEY! HI! things are rough out here right now, and i think in times of unrest like this, when we're not quite sure what the next day will hold or where our place in the wider world is, community is more important than ever. and i think we're all in agreement when i say fandom can be such a lovely resting spot from all of it so, hey. hi. you have a place here!

this fest is dedicated to female and genderqueer stories, art and edits, aiming to represent those who are feeling unsteady right now, and give us all a bit of space to breathe, be seen, and simply Be.

Fanfictions, edits, and fanart are all accepted as submissions

Two servers: 18+ and 16-17 will be placed in separate servers (nothing else is different! just keeping it as safe and comfy as possible <3)

Fics: told from pov of female/gq character(s)

Any era/pairings/au allowed (or no pairings! you pretty much have free reign!)
