currently diving head first into the marauders fandom :p
^^this but i dont mind MCD and i just read The Hand That Feeds and it broke me but i NEED more dorlene ASAP
this is a call for help.
we have a ton of beautiful fanfiction in this fandom but I have never found one that enabled me to form a visceral connection with marlene or dorcas hence dorlene. I don’t have this issue with other sapphic ships, just marlene and dorcas have always felt like side characters but I WANT TO BE A DORLENE GIRLIE. I really want to get inside their brains and be unable to stop thinking about them.
So please recommend me such fics if you know any. I am begging🧎🏻 [Just one disclaimer: I don’t like MCD/canon compliant fics.]
dorlene is SO phoebe bridgers coded
no bc i didn’t even read the tags when i went to read it i just had seen a few tik toks about it and thought it was interesting, downloaded it to my phone, and didn’t look back so i realllllyyyy didn’t see it coming
i should’ve taken that “major character death” tag in art heist baby a little bit more seriously because i was nowhere near prepared for that.
went to go scroll on the dorlene tag bc i was in the mood for some wlw content and tell me why 80% of it is just jegulus content??? I AM HERE FOR THE LESBIANS
james and remus watching sirius and regulus fight because one stared at the other for a bit too long.
james: i don’t get why those two are so angry all the damn time.
remus: short people are closer to hell.
*sirius struggling in the kitchen at 3 am.*
remus: what’s going on, love?
sirius: trying to rip the slutty little fishnets off my damn oranges.
*sirius and james having a discussion in the afterlife*
james: he named his kid albus severus, ALBUS FUCKING SEVERUS!!
sirius: you’re kidding.
james: i’m dead serious.
sirius: no…i’m dead sirius, you’re dead james.
james: sirius is about to come home from his third date any minute now.
regulus: third date? with the same guy? did he talk during the first two?
james: yeah no, i’m as shocked as you are.
james: *holding up his smudged glasses* reg, darling, can you get me something to clean my glasses with?
regulus: sure. *stands up and walks over to sirius, rips his shirt off his back, and gives the torn piece to james*
james: *cleaning his glasses* thank you, my love.
sirius: what did i ever do to you?
remus: *pulling out a list* i thought you’d never ask.
more jegulus and their struggle with french <3
regulus: are you done practicing?
james: yes! i’ve memorized what to say to sirius this time.
regulus: right, go on then.
james: tu es…a dúmmy…?
regulus: *facepalming* bête.
sirius and remus texting:
sirius: i love you, stay safe! <33
remus: will do, i love you too abby. <3
remus: baby*
*sirius black is typing…*
remus: oh god, here we go again…
the marauders are at a party.
sirius: *shit-faced drunk, dancing horribly on a table.*
remus: *sighing* love is blind.
james: *also shit-faced drunk, singing horribly on a makeshift stage.*
regulus: *facepalming* love is also deaf…tone-deaf.
*at james and regulus’ wedding*
everyone: aw, look at sirius, he’s gone to the back, he’s probably crying.
sirius: *dancing his little heart out because he no longer has to deal with james’ snoring or regulus’ 3 am epiphanies.*
the marauders (and their incorrect quotes writer) are very engrossed in the depp heard trial.
everyone here is team depp! (you might wanna check on snivvy though, he might be team heard. but hey! you didn’t hear it from us!)
regulus: care to explain what happened pour moi?
james: uh- oui oui, so i had a little too much café on an empty túmmy, so i had a - how do you say - panique attaque.
the marauders as the types of people you’d see on eid day! (eid at the prongs household)

the owner of this account, along with the marauders, would like to wish all their muslim supporters a very happy eid 🤍🤍
sirius tricked james into telling him about his relationship with regulus, regulus isn’t happy.
regulus: first things first, james here is a fucking idiot, and if he tells you anything fucking different he’s a liar and a fucking snake.
regulus: *smacks james on the forehead*
regulus: fuck you.
sirius black had way too much fun with his name.

the list goes on…and it only gets weirder.
barty: your ex is waiting by the common room entrance, they’re begging to talk to you.
regulus: *applying nail polish*
regulus: too bad, i only do second coats not second chances.
regulus: james, if you didn’t sleep last night then i’m very sorry, i was thinking about you.
james, distracted by a triangle shaped grape: …the illuminati have taken over the grape industry.
james: *is laying on the floor with a clear quartz stone on his head*
james: i do not chase, i attract, what belongs to me will simply find me.
sirius: *peeks his head into the dorm room*
sirius: james, come say hi to regulus in the common room.
james: HI — IM JAMES BUT YOU PROBABLY ALREADY KNOW THAT — IM THE BEST CHASER HOGWARTS HAD EVER SEEN — I LIVE TO CHASE.

remus: turn a bunch of kids into werewolves, just to start an army.
lily: being prejudiced against half-bloods and muggle borns whilst being a half-blood themselves.
sirius: try to conceive for years, then become abusive to the very kids they were dying to have.
james: o-oh, i was just gonna say nick my sweaters right after they said that their fashion sense is nothing like mine…
regulus: i never said, nor did such a thing.
james walks in on wolfstar.
james: bro, are you fucking serious?
sirius: i can confirm that i am, indeed, fucking sirius.
remus: *peeks his head out from under the covers*
remus: and i can also confirm that i am, indeed, fucking sirius.
headcanon 1 about the potter brothers:
sirius finding out he was fruity, and immediately panicking, thinking of the worst case scenario of how james would react and how he might lose his brother.
————————————————
james finding out he was fruity, and immediately pulling out a checklist labeled “things sirius and i have in common.” and checking the “sexuality” box. then rushing over to tell sirius because he’s so excited to have something new to bond with his brother over.
snape is serenading lily, and it’s quite distasteful.
snape: so come run your hands through my hair, ‘cause that’s why it’s there.
sirius (to remus and james): “come run your hands through my hair”? i can make some bloody fried chicken using all that grease in it.
james is texting a sleepy regulus at 3am.
james: reg, would you still love me if i had no ears?
regulus: no, goodnight.
