oh my god YES i need someone to write this now wtf
Sirius would rebuild the Library of Alexandria from the ashes and even use a time-turner to save as many books as possible, just for Remus, who once drunkenly mentioned that he would've liked to see it in person before it got destroyed.
remus lupin is wild unkept curls, crooked diy hair cuts, chapped teeth, a big hooked nose, picked at finger nails, freckles and exzema, acne scars, deep cuts, big brown eyes with long lashes, an almost too big mouth, constant pout, furrowed bushy brows, pale on naturally tan skin, visible bones and too long limbs, stretched out and tall, bumping his head on door frames, ink spills on his lips from biting his pen, scoliosis, loose belts with diy holes, leather books bags that cut into his shoulders and make him walk askew, hoarse voice and a sputtering laugh, bad hearing because he puts his music on too high volume, picks at his scabs and scars, mismatched socks, falling apart trainers, wide shoulders but skinny arms and torso, hunched posture and walk, resting bitch/disinterested face, low appetite but extremely sweet tooth, manual labor skills, book worm and reading glasses, annotated books with broken spines, rjl written into the covers.
i had plans to do sooo much writing this week since it’s my spring break. and i did! at first. now i havent touched my fic in like 3 days though…oops
Me after a long day of writing: *closing the lid of my laptop nodding to myself* that was a good sentence
No one owes artists anything.
But existence is lonely and sometime you throw hours and hours of effort into a void, on the slim chance it will say something back.
helloooooo :)
🐌, ✨ & 🥳 for the ask game pls <3
hello!! thanks for the asks!
🐌 What is one of your smallest writing goals? To be honest I’m not sure that any of my goals count as small? I guess small is a bit subjective haha but probably my smallest is to finish writing + posting BRTC! It’s smallest in terms of difficulty/anxiety inducement at least lol but also not a huge amount of writing I think! Probably three more chapters max? This could change though.
✨What's one area of your writing that you think needs the least amount of improvement? This one’s a struggle honestly, not because I’m being mean to myself but because I just don’t…think about it? I don’t analyze the specific flaws and strengths of my own writing I don’t know. My go-to answer is usually grammar but that feels like cheating so, hmm…looking back at my doc I think I quite like how I put concepts like certain trans feelings and disability feelings into words. I always thought it would be hard to explain these things, and it is a bit, but I’m usually pretty happy with how I end up doing it :)
🥳 How are you going to celebrate when you achieve one of your writing goals? This is…another hard one LMAO because truthfully I don’t usually do any sort of major celebrations. So my answer for this is a bit unexciting but probably some combination of screaming in your DMs, eating chocolate/cookies, and/or buying something inexpensive but still ill-advised
my fav wolfstar trope is when sirius has remus literally wrapped around his finger. a dog on a leash type of situation. remus obedient and worshipping the ground sirius walks on
Happy birthday, Remus :3
Fanfic is a free hobby.
It's one of the last few things we can have as a society that's free. You can engage, for free. People give you things (art, stories, etc), for free.
Don't buy into the consummerism just because it's everywhere else.
You don't have to consume everything you interact with. You don't have to use things, just because they exist.
You're allowed (still, for now), to have things that are enjoyable for free.
Do you realise how insane the world is? We don't have many places where we can just be, for free anymore, but ao3 is. Did you notice we don't have ads in ao3? We don't have pop ups? Where ELSE do we not have that?
Where else can you just go and not have to wait for a commercial to be over or for ads to be on the sidelines?
I don't think the younger people understand, but the whole of internet used to be like this. YouTubers would do Youtube for free, just because. You couldn't monetise your internet presence before.
Ao3 is like a little preserved corner of the internet where the old internet used to be, and it's being attacked by people who do not understand that free things are allowed to exist without judgment.
Please don't ruin this for us.
Some of us need it.
working on secret fics is So Hard omg i’ve written so many things im sooo proud of and want to share!!! 😭
peter betrayed lily, too!!! everyone talks about peter betraying the marauders and while, yes, they were friends for years and years, lily was their friend, too. she called him “wormy” and cared about him and trusted him enough to let him be responsible for her son’s life.
peter was lily’s second friend who joined the group that wanted her dead. and it’s so tragic because her death came because of these betrayals, too. snape was the one who told voldemort about the prophecy and then peter was the one who told him how to get to her.
