I will physically combust if regulus fandom turns into what sn*pe fandom is . . .
May this house be full of kitchen smells and shadows and toys and nests of mice and roars of rage and waterfalls of tears and deep sexual silences and sounds of mysterious origin never explained and troves and keepsakes and a lot of junk and a flowing like a warm wind only slower blowing the leaves of trees and books and the fish-years of a child’s life silvery flickering quick, quick, in the slow incessant gust that billows out the curtains for a moment all those years from now, ago. May the sills and doorframes be in blessing blest at every passing. May the roof but not the rooms know rain. May the windows know clearly the branch and flower of the apple tree And may you be in this house as the music is in the instrument.
— Ursula K. Le Guin, “For the New House”
the stars and the universe love you
like in my head he’s the male version of lana del rey: king of the gas station, Coney Island, drugs
i don’t know if people will agree w me but young remus gives me toxic intellectual fuckboy vibes, like he’s an absolute ass but he wears corduroy and reads you kafka and he’ll listen to kanye like he needs it to breathe and complains about how sad and poor and scary he is
does regulus listen to weezer
richard siken, crush // christopher healy, a hero’s guide to saving your kingdom // the amazing devil, ruin // j.d. salinger, raise the high roof beam // susan sontag, as consciousness is harnessed to flesh: journals and notebooks // claudia rankine, don’t let me be lonely: an american lyric // the avett brothers, i wish i was // frank bidart, the war of vaslav nijinsky // nicola toon, everything, everything
I honestly hate when people make Peter some annoying git or a tag along in marauders fics. Don’t get me wrong I LOVE some of them, and they’re literally my favourite book series. But it still ticks me off when Peter is written as some forgettable idiot. For gods sake, the marauders LOVED HIM. he was their brother, there was a reason why James and Lily trusted him. And he made his decision off of fear, not hatred for the others. Keep in mind I am in no way justifying what he did, it was selfish and horrible. I still hate the little rat for what he did, I’m just trying to say that he wasn’t just someone that the others didn’t love or care about.
what’s sad is that regulus would have 100% known that sirius would’ve never in his life betrayed the potters and i think about that a lot
