Marauders Au In Which They Are Immortals (base On The Old Guard).

marauders band au / blackinnon

mary mcdonald (supermodel): look, i’m not saying they didn’t share a dream of becoming the next big thing. i’m just saying they were strategic about it. sirius and marlene i mean. that concert we went to were we ended up on stage with them? all planned. they knew how to replicate authenticity, they had so much energy no one ever doubted them.

lily evans (photographer, james potter’s girlfriend): everywhere you looked, girls wanted to be her [marlene]. she had been in a few music videos at the time with other bands, before the boys skyrocketed. but after that concert, girls wanted to be her and boys wanted to… you know (makes obscene gesture with her hands).

mary: her disappearance act afterwards was pure genius. marauders sold out everywhere.

marlene could at least commiserate with her best friend over the fact that now both of them were paired up with boys they didn’t particularly like.

except that everyone thought james potter would become the next male etoile, while sirius… well, she guessed it was a good thing that no one could deny the fact he was talented.

—surely this can’t be the first time you’ve been asked to do something with someone you hate.

—i don’t hate you. i barely know you.

—but you don’t like me.

—it’s not personal.

—of course it’s personal, mckinnon, otherwise you wouldn’t care so much.

—well, yeah, but that's my problem.

—funny, you have make it everybody’s problem with the way you’ve been running around asking to get rid of me.

—i can’t get rid of you, that’s the problem.

—so it is personal.

marlene sighed in frustration.

—yes, it is personal. it’s personal because if they get rid of you, then i’m cut out of the program too. so no, i don’t dislike you personally, just the idea of you.

—seems to me you would hate it more if i wasn’t here.

—you see my predicament then.

—not really.

sirius laugh it off.

—come on, let’s take it from the top.

marlene relented. she supposed it was progress sirius had agreed to practice after hours.

ANOTHER ASK how do we see hinny and blackinnon in a happy ending world when no one is dead

uhhh but there’s a catch though: no war and happy ending means we don’t get the same harry potter from canon and we do erased a lot of the parallels he had with teenage sirius BUT…

we do end up having a harry who grows up to be what sirius couldn’t, seeing as he either didn’t have or didn’t felt like he had a very loving and supportive family (even if walburga and orion intended for it to be that way)

and maybe in the end that’s why when hinny get together and grow up they get married and have kids and settle into a very domestic life, harry emulating in a way his parents and obviously ginny hers, because both actually had a happy childhood surrounded by their blood relatives

where as blackinnon will forever be too wild to be tame for social pressure and boring standards. it’s not that they don’t love each other, they just have different priorities and, besides, sirius probably sees harry as his own kid and marlene loves him dearly. i also think marlene has a ton of nieces and nephews from her brothers so there’s plenty of family there and she loves being the favorite auntie

i like the idea of harry having both james and sirius as role models and still taking after his dad and for sirius to watch him grow into an adult without any major complex or traumas, cause as much as the way sirius is could be just his personality, there’s probably a lot of unpack trauma there too

like is he happy in a relationship outside of marriage? sure. did his parents marriage influence his views on the matter? maybe. maybe he doesn’t even know because, again: unpack trauma

sirius black is the king of remaining sane amongst any trouble, especially inner turbulences.

as for happy endings, i can totally see this being the right scenario for blackinnon staying together once and for all and who knows, maybe surprising all of their friend by getting married way into his older years!

Teenage Trelawney swearing up and down that she saw the Grim at the edge of the Forbidden Forest, telling everyone at Hogwarts even though nobody believes her. Meanwhile Sirius is sat at the back of the class like 😶😶😶

hello can i please have one of padfoot and his bestie crookshanks? 😻

they are so special to me🥹

breaking point

there’s definitely infinite scenarios depending on so many things, but yeah, they do part ways and they do find their way back to each other.

now, how long that last? lets say marlene lives long enough only to lose sirius through the veil and we’re back at square one: fucking doomed 🫠

there is no escaping the curse.

I have so many favorite hc for blackinnon, but my all-time favorite is Sirius having a bad feeling the night Marlene dies and telling her not to go home, to spend the night in his house, to stay together-- but Marlene thinks he is being paranoid and goes to visit her home, and ends up dying there with her family. I just love the idea that Sirius lives with the regret that only if he insisted more, maybe that wouldn't have happened.

‘Come on, Ginny’s not bad,’ said George fairly, sitting down next to Fred. ‘Actually, I dunno how she got so good, seeing how we never let her play with us.’ ‘She’s been breaking into your broom shed in the garden since the age of six and taking each of your brooms out in turn when you weren’t looking,’ said Hermione from behind her tottering pile of Ancient Rune books. 'Oh,’ said George, looking mildly impressed. 'Well, that’d explain it.'

you have your mother’s eyes

you should write a marauders (blackinnon) fic set in a Bridgerton-like setting! (high society, marriage mart, gossip column!). I looove ur writings❣️

omg thank u!! 💗

that’s sounds interesting but i fear i would struggle a lot with time period accuracy in terms of language, common phrases and things like that (not that i would mind that much re-reading some classic in english to immerse myself in it).

you have for sure given me something to think about!
