I hate how everyone shits on soft! Remus Lupin like as if canonical he isn’t the biggest sweetheart ever.
Tumblr media
This TikTok post from @theonottineedusobad made me so happy and sad bc Remus is just so good™️ and I think the fandom forgets this for the new bad boy version of Remus that to me seems so forced and off putting
Let Remus be soft again!!! Let him wear his jumpers and read his books without smoking weed or stealing. Let him play pranks without being cold, let him be nice and gentle and sensible while also being a smart and mischievous teenage boy. 
Let Remus be the glue of the marauders!! Not James or Sirius, REMUS!! Bc he literally is! Explore why James and Sirius, who probably were more rude and pretentious when they were younger, admired him so much that they broke the law for him. Explore the dynamics of the 4 boys as a group not just as best friend duo james and Sirius with a side of wolfstar relationship and a forgotten Peter.
As much as wolfstar shaped the fandom I really wish we could get a canon accurate marauders fic to see more of the friendships.

The Marauders fandom really underestimates just how fucking weird Remus has the potential to be, especially during his first few years at Hogwarts. He was an only child, and thanks to his Lycanthropy, he was basically raised in isolation. So already, he's severely lacking in social skills, not to mention the mental effects of isolation on a child. He probably had vivid imaginary friends and spent a large chunk of his time daydreaming and reading to soothe the loneliness.
I imagine his school nickname "Loopy" was well-earned. Just imagine how awkward and strange he would have been, this 11 year old only child who has never interacted with another child in his life and whose only friends were his (arguably ALSO weird/quirky) parents, attending school for the first time?

headcanon that there has Never been a bad picture of james potter. it makes both black brothers go absolutely batshit because they have been going through preparations and posing for family pictures their entire life and that’s a habit neither of them really ever breaks; sirius still swears the camera always has his bad side when he isn’t paying attention to it. it is now their mission to take an ugly picture of james potter. (remus watches their antics and sighs deeply “it is not that serious”)

i see you jily and jegulus shippers, but i raise you: polyamorous bisexual disaster james potter.
the poor boy is in the midst of a constant mental breakdown over his two crushes, lily evans and regulus black, aka the girl who’s been rejecting him since day one and his best friend’s evil brother.

remus: *doing his headboy stuff* so, james, you know it's 11 p.m. and you must be in your dorm now
james: yes
remus: well, then why are you stood here in front of the portrait?
james: regulus said that he likes bad guys
remus: oh jesus

“Ah, the classic Black glare.” Lupin grins. “Your brother’s is better, you know. His is proper scary, no light behind the eyes. You just look like an annoyed puppy.”
“You’re such a prick,” Sirius hisses, each consonant dagger-sharp.
Lupin only tilts his head, that stupid grin widening. “It’s cute.”
“Fuck off, Lupin.”
shorn and scarred and yours is complete :)

do u ever see a group of teenage boys and think they look so little and remember that that’s how old the marauders are. like i have to remind myself sirius (15) probably does not look like ben barnes (41) he probably looks like his hands are sticky and would call your mom a slur.

Did you guys ever stop to think this:
When Remus is transforming into a werewolf all of his bones, possibly, break and reposition themselves to fit his wolf form? And this happens again when he reverts to human form, which is why he feels so much pain and could be one of the reasons for his memory loss the next day....

More Jegulus Recs because i'm an addict
the shrine of your lies (is where i lay) by Kayaannii Prince!James meets Assassin!Regulus… v well written, and very fun! This is wolfstar as well! Not super long yet but from what I've read so far, there will be a lot of Black Brother Angst in the future. Slight warning, explicit like graphic, also there's very much a knife kink so if you're not into that this prob won't be for you!
l'éphémère (the ephemeral) by @anouri James hits Regulus with a motorcycle. Not the most common meet cute but they make it work. I'm 90% sure I've already recced this oh well. If you like Best Friend's Brother, you'll like this. Sirius and Regulus will make you cry in the most recent chapter. There are a couple pretty intense things in here, so make sure to thoroughly read the tags! I’ve been keeping up w this fic for a while and it one of my favs so I hope y’all read it!!
You, Me & Everyone Else by ygmoony I was grinning the entire time I read this fic. It is wolfstar and jegulus... but Remus & Regulus steal. the. show. They're just so...? I don't even have the words they're literally best friends your honour. I cannot wait for the next chapter, and for the chaos of the plot to kick in because I'm already OBSESSED. I think I’ve seen maybe one person mention this fic and it’s my personal mission to spread it, I’m in love w it
friday night lumieres by raiyag This one has blown up recently so I had to give it a read. I like it! It's very different from a lot of marauders fics, it's American high school au, centred around sports (and sports med). Very fun read. I liked the miscommunication between Regulus and Sirius. It is marked as explicit, even though from what I remember there hasn't been anything yet, remember all characters are in high school so keep that in mind!
For the Hope of it All by Bastetmoon (@alexaryebread) Yall. YALL. This is my fav fic on the list and that is saying something. It's basically a jegulus august au (the taylor swift love triangle) and I cannot (cannot) get enough. I was kicking my feet and giggling the entire time I read this. Every single character in this fic is a MESS and I love them all. Not a single one of them makes a good choice at any point ever and it is so entertaining, there is not a brain cell to be found. In other words, it's actually a pretty realistic representation of high school. It is very early 2000s teen tv show, like riverdale(season 1 anyways). It is so cute, and I cannot wait till it updates!!!
a matter of time by reggiecanswim
Ok I had to rewrite this summary because this fic has updated a lot. There will be spoilers so if you don’t want that, just know it’s an absolutely fan fucking tastic fic, and I highly recommend it. So it’s semi canon compliant. It follows the marauders (plus regulus) through most of hogwarts and that part is very much child/teen hood friendship, relationship drama and is pretty light. It gets darker in the last year (Regulus’ 6th, the marauders 7th) the prank is also featured and it’s incredibly well done, on par with choices’ handling of the prank in my opinion. Then the war. Regulus becomes a death eater and defects, is a double agent for a while gets caught and tortured has a very traumatic brain injury recovers, and has to live with the potters while he recovers. James lowkey cheats on Lily with him by the end. Ok not lowkey he does. I don’t condone this, and honestly I think it’s out of character for James but it is well written and enjoyable to read so if you aren’t into that don’t read it. After that canon… fixes itself. They find out peters the spy too late james and Lily die, Sirius goes to kill Peter and brings regulus with him, and Peter kills regulus along with the muggle (and frames Sirius for all the murders as well as his own death.) so yeah regulus does die. I was a little disappointed by this because I haven’t seen many regulus!lives fics that follow him into the canon story and see how his presence changes things but again it was well written, and I even cried so I can’t really complain. I think there’s one more chapter left so I’ll update when that comes out. Side note, I’m curious to see if they’ll add regulus to Sirius’ victims count or they’ll say he was a part of the plot to kill Peter (and the muggle) and died in the process, probably leaning toward the later because he was a death eater but the former would be very interesting.
You Missed My Heart by pinkpanther1465
Criminal minds au!!! The characters don’t line up exactly, but James is Reid, Remus is Hotch but it’s established wolfstar. Very cute but sort of sad, updates are pretty frequent and it’s different than a lot of jegulus fics I’ve read!
love is not a predicate by mordax
Yall this is the boarding school fic to end all boarding school fics. I literally read all of it (it’s over 100k rn) in like 3 hours with almost no breaks. I ate this shit up. Pandora and Reg are the bestest, and JAMES? He has my whole heart. He just wants to listen to the piano. But the real star of this fic is the absolute perfect representation of Sirius and Regulus’ relationship and their whole family being the worst. It’s just great you need to read it.
En Avant by bluerosebouquet (@sortasirius)
The best depiction of grief I've read in a fic so far. I usually don't like jegulus fics where Lily dies, because the writer is always so eager to get to the jegulus they just brush over Jily, this fic doesn't do that. Like not at all. It's also very sad, but in a happy way? That didn't make sense. You'll cry by chapter 2, but it's not soul crushing depressing. Is that better? As of now the Sirius & Regulus relationship is looking unfixable, I really hope that changes, because I love them and I'd love to see this author's take on their dynamic, and also I really want the specific backstory for their falling out. I put reading this one off for a while because it's very long but I finished it in like 4 hours, maybe less actually, you really get right through it. ANyways go read it and tell them they're amazing.

Sirius has had a very shitty life. He's lost count of the days in which he felt like anything would be better than existing in his own skin, but if you were to ask him what the worst day of his life was, it wouldn't have anything to do with him, his imprisonment or his awful family. If you were to ask him the day in which he felt the worst grief in his entire, short and pitiful life, he's sure it would be the summer evening he entered Harry's room at Grimmauld Place without knocking and found him muttering nonsense to the Marauder's Map with his wand in hand, waiting for Prongs to appear and give him a piece of his mind.

in the beginning, the world ends.
In the beginning, the world doesn't end.
Well, that's not entirely true.
The world does end, just not in the way that you think.
No, after the shot of red light and the flutter of the Veil, the world is still moving- still spinning on its axis.
Everything continues as it should; Harry still runs after Bellatrix. Neville and Luna are still tending each other's wounds, Kingsley is still calling all the Ministry workers there and Dumbledore is still battling Tom Riddle somewhere in the depths of the Ministry.
And Remus Lupin is frozen, crumpled over before the Dais where Sirius Black just fell through the Veil.
"There's nothing you can do, Harry... nothing... He's gone."
Gone.
Gone.
Gone.
The words were rattling around his brain, every passing moment bringing a new round of grief and despair with it as it crashed over him like a wave.
He took a tentative step forward, eyes wide as if it would prevent the tears from coming as he circled around the Dais, as if any moment Sirius would come tumbling out the other side with that smoldering smirk and look at him.
"Alright there, Moons?"
Sirius had been gone before, had been gone for 13 years.
Had been taken away from him.
But this was different, there was finality here.
There was no changing what had happened, no way to fix this.
Sirius was gone.
Sirius was gone and Remus was still here.
Sirius was gone and Remus was still here and the world was still moving.
Sirius was gone, and Remus was still here, and the world was still moving, and Remus didn't know how to go on.
So, if you think about it, really; in the beginning, the world really does end.
