DNA Guarantee by Kodi Rhianna is Black Family coded
- more under the cut -
The first stanza gives me the vibes of Alphard, Andie, and Sirius deciding to leave and begging for their siblings to follow. The Black family drains everything unique about it's children and makes soilders, and those three didn't want to be. They tried for so long to change (beating a long dead horse) but being apart of the Black family is a life sentence.
The chorus is everyone. All of them are trapped in a cycle until they break it. "Never your baby, just a maybe," they never had kids to have kids. It was always for heirs. The Blood purity, so forth eeee
The middle stanza is Sirius and Regulus and Walburga.
It's between them and Walburga in the first part. Sirius and Regulus reminding Walburga of Alphard and herself - one trapped and lashing out and one desperately fleeing. Its also difficult because of how similar all three are - forced into positions, unhappy, lashing out. I would image that if they interacted as older, Sirius and Walburga still would have issues due to this. Even if she doesn't or didn't hit them with her hand, spells and words do it best.
It's between Regulus and Sirius in the second part. The dogs biting the bone is Sirius messing everything up with Remus and the others. "Daughter bites her words," Regulus not coming out as FmT for years due to fear. "Fight like wolves, then flee like birds," Whenever the brothers fight it's always vicious, pulling at old wounds and cruel - like their family. Then they both realize, fleeing before the other says something. "From the save pack but rivaling herds," the brothers come from the same family, but in the end have vastly different friends.
I also just imagine that when it doesn't get physical, the family does have screaming matches often. Cops would be called, the whole thing. Very early the kids learned they could use their words effectively against each other even if they couldn't against their parents. I imagine that while close, the boys and girls had a battle of shouts at least once a day (then sneak each other treats to make up for it.)
I could also imagine Sirius and Regulus trying to settle into the Potters and realizing how intertwined their family is in them. And also Reg and Sirius have to stomp to the back of the garden to have their arguments - they cannot not have them, because then they get waaaay worse.
I was scrolling - as you do - and saw someone posting their headcanons for different marauders characters and I saw that they add some underrated characters (Alice, Frank, Bellatrix, Rita ect)
And now I feel like an asshole cause I kinda forgot about them.. so none of them have been added to my headcanon posts.. so imma add them now cause I feel bad
“But I have seen the same. I know the shame in your defeat.”
But it’s Andromeda Black with Sirius Black.
“Your mother wouldn’t approve of how my mother raised me” but it’s the black family to their lovers.
Regulus “please don’t say you love me” black.
Siurus “please don’t say you love me” black.
Bellatrix “please don’t say you love me” black.
Andromeda “please don’t say you love me” black.
Narcissa “please don’t say you love me” black.
Itty bitty waists are a very prominent feature in the house of black
Feel that thinking about writing something about them bc I find nothing about them
Hot take (everyone expected it from me)
I think more about the Black Sisters than the Black brothers
Literally the idea that Andromeda escaped!! SHE MADE IT!! Only to have her daughter killed by Bellatrix! Her own sister!! THAT GETS ME
Im that one girl who dont mess with the Black sisters
black family edits with Midwest Emo are my achilles heal 😔
Rosekiller are the kind of people to be besties with theire local takeout
(the tai takeout guy gave me 6 instead of 8 springrolls)
(i hate myself for using the word bestie)
if jily + other marauders era characters weren't in the houses they are in:
james would be a cute little hufflepuff because hes loyal af, kind (to people who deserve it) and also he is an excellent cook (my hc)
lily evans is a ravenclaw, and there is no argument for her being slytherin. a) she would probably be murdered or tortured for being muggleborn, b) she THIRSTS for knowledge (and james potter) and is extremely creative and witty and self-aware. plus shes (in most fanfics i read) excellent at charms which is flitwicks class.
anyways if they werent the ultimate gryffindor head boy/girl couple, they would be the huffleclaw head boy/girl couple that everyone adored.
sirius: he is a gryffindor fight me on this
remus: ravenclaw
peter: hufflepuff EXCEPT towards the end hes a slytherin
marlene: slytherin
dorcas: she was ORIGINALLY a gryffindor but if not then she would be a ravenclaw
mary: hufflepuff
regulus: ravenclaw
evan: hufflepuff
barty: gryffindor
narcissa: hufflepuff
andromeda: gryffindor
bellatrix: ravenclaw
Sirius: "Andy, sit on the couch. This is a stress-free zone. Stress isn't good for the baby."
Andromeda: "Awww, thanks Sirius. This is so sweet."
Ted: *walks in* "Hey Sirius, do you wanna-"
Sirius: "WHY ARE YOU IN THE STRESS FREE ZONE?!"
Alphard: "Sirius, you're defeating the point of a stress-free zone!"
Sirius: "Oh... sorry..."
Ted: "So you don't want to come with me to the Muggle supermarket and ride the kidde ride?"
Sirius: "What?! No, don't be ridiculous."
Sirius: "Of course I do, let's go." *drags Ted to the door by the sleeve*
Ted: "Sirius, I need shoes!"
Sirius: "You have socks on, you're fine!"
Tengo tantos hc de Sirius que ya no se que me inventé yo y que leí en algún lado 😭 pero mis favoritos siempre van a ser que habla francés, inglés y un poco de italiano y español; Andrómeda —Andie, Andy— es su prima favorita, pero de pequeño también se llevaba muy bien con Narcisa y respetaba a Bellatrix; sabe tocar el piano desde pequeño y de grande aprendió a tocar la guitarra (aunque también amo cuando lo ponen tocando el violín aunque siento que el violín es regulus); el día que se dió cuenta de que nunca sería suficiente para los estándares de su familia, decidió que si no podía encajar en ese puesto, sería incluso "peor" de lo que ya era; sabe bailar múltiples bailes de salón e incluso disfruta hacerlo, pero jamás lo admitiría en voz alta <3
Puedo seguir por horas, que alguien me saque a Sirius Black del sistema, lo amo demasiado.
I always love it when the Black cousins have closer relationships to each other in fan works.
In my head, Sirius is Andromeda's baby and Regulus is Narcissa's. Bellatrix is not allowed to babysit alone lol.
A while ago I read a fic where Sirius goes to live with Andromeda instead of the Potters when he runs away and it might have been deleted because I can't find it, but it was sooo sweet.
I'm also currently reading a fic where Andromeda took Sirius with her when she left and raised him as her son. Will add the fic name and author if I can find it. (After All This Time by starsarestories on ao3)
But I haven't been able to find any fics with Narcissa and Regulus like that, or even Bellatrix and Regulus and its killing me. I need it.
Has anyone done an AU where the Black family are like the Addams family? I know the Black parents are not usually written as good parents, but I haven't been able to stop thinking about this for weeks. I have had too many ideas about it already and I need to know if there is a fic out there. If there isn't, I might have to try writing it and I have horrible commitment issues when it comes to writing fics lol.
Narcissa is Honeymoon. Bella is Ultraviolence. Andy is NFR or Ocean Boulevard. (I’m open to both)
Thank you for coming to my TedTalk.
Thinking about how Ted probably told Andy about the cinema and she absolutely begged him to take her to one for weeks until he finally did.
He takes her to the nearest muggle city. Their theater is by no means impressive, if anything it’s quite quaint. He purchases tickets to a movie he thinks will do and buys them a box of popcorn to share. The entire time Andy is buzzing with excitement. She asks every question she can think of beginning with how many movies have you seen? and ending somewhere around why are muggle candy boxes so simplistic?
They finally take their seats. Not too high up, not too far down, perfectly in the middle of the rows. As the opening credits roll he watches the excitement on Andy’s face turn to wonder. She leans in during tense moments, she laughs at all the jokes, she claps when the protagonist makes a narrow escape, and she gasps when the plot twist is revealed. He couldn’t tell you any of the details happening on screen but it didn’t matter. It didn’t compare to the girl next to him.
Tbh I don’t know how to start this account so I’m going to toss out a wide net and hope I catch some fellow Black sister enjoyers. I want to put these thoughts somewhere they can be enjoyed rather than just into my bestie’s DMs all the time.
Black Sisters Headcannons that no one asked for
- I don’t think we talk enough about the jewelry box drama on here. I think that’s some fabulous, untapped potential. I would love for us to build upon that lore.
- As someone that has sisters, idk where y’all got the idea that they grew up in a girlhood utopia. They 100% regularly fought and have gotten into physical altercations about stealing one another’s belongings. That’s not to say they didn’t love each other though. They did. It’s the principle of “I can call my sibling that but you, random stranger, cannot.”
- I subscribe to the “Narcissa and Lucius took the unbreakable vow” narrative written in the VERY early chapters of ATYD. I really do think they love/loved each other. I think that in the beginning they had this dream of being parents together and having a family that truly loved each other. Unfortunately in order to have that you have to unpack your own family trauma and I think both of them would rather die than do that. So they did their best with what they had. And it’s reflected so interestingly in Draco but pls don’t make me talk about him rn.
- I don’t think about Andy and Ted (or whoever else you ship her with 👀) as much as I should. Please drop me your favorite headcannons abt her some they can become my favorites!
- I could probably write a graduate level thesis on Bella however for now I will just say that when I was first learning the lore of the family I did not realize she was canonically the oldest. For the longest time I saw her as the middle child. Furthermore, I also think her mental health issues have been life long and were only exacerbated by her time in Azkaban (duh). By combining those two ideas I created this narrative where she was sort of given to Andy to deal with anytime she was having a breakdown acting out. Even though that is a rough foundation for a sibling relationship it’s what they had and they grew to understand each other. To the point when Andy went away to school Bella kinda crashed out for a few months because her major support system was gone.
Okay that’s all for now!! Come chat with me! Or don’t. Either way I hope you have a wonderful day. ✨
