as a reader of marauders fanfics, i'm always kinda confused when i see a tag saying otb or ohb because i never know which fic it is about, and i always need like 3 seconds to just. remind myself of which is which.

like are we fighting voldemort by finding the horcruxes and making a pact with darkness or are we sexy pirates with a prince on the run ?

You know a fic is god tier when it’s 4:30am but you did not just go through hell and back to go to sleep before a Jegulus reunion. (Only The Brave by @solmussa).

#jegulus #regulus black #james potter #only the brave #solmussa writes #marauders era #starchaser #sunseeker #this fic broke and then healed my soul #this is canon #because it is

[moonymaeg]

Finally started Only The Brave by Solmussa and I am absolutely obsessed but like.. does anyone else just refuse to see Reg as anything other than babygirl? He’s such a BAMF in it but I’m still like YOU ARE BABY 🥺 maybe it’s the Sirius kinnie in me but I will always be protective of my lil Reggie

the infamous stabbing scene in Only the Brave by @solmussa (love you for writing this fic, you are a genius)... this scene had me gigging kicking my feet in the air..

reg: *stabs james*

james: i want him in my bed

fics i will never get tired of rereading

nobody asked for this but these are the fics that are open on my phone at any given time in no particular order (w the authors tagged if i know them)

no. 1

@shanastoryteller

rated: teen and up

incomplete

from both harry and draco’s perspectives but the fic isn’t *only* about their relationship

ik i said “in no particular order” but this is hands down my favorite fic. i’ve re read it 9 ish times. it’s got fluff, it’s got angst, it’s got lucius and narcissa malfoy being the parents we wish we had.

no. 2

(author not on tumblr)

rated: teen and up

completed + a bonus

this is my go to when i’m in a soft depressive mood. it’s got a soft build up, soft resolution, soft angst, soft magic nerdiness. the first time i read it the climax was definitely intense and stressed me out but i cried happy tears, stressed tears, and sad tears all through this fic.

^ this is what i mean by soft depressive

no. 3

@imdamagecontrol @solmussa

rated: mature

completed

so actually i just finished reading this fic today and i haven’t had the chance to process to start rereading, but i’m definitely going to keep returning this fic. i think i found this when it was at 18/25 chapters completed and when there was an update, i would reread the previous chapter(s) before the new ones. i love this fic so much it had my heart in pieces

no. 4

(author not on tumblr)

rated: teen and up

incomplete

this one is just for fun. it’s got it’s depressing moments but it’s mostly tooth-rotting fluff. i love it and it’s my go to when i don’t want to be stressed or too overwhelmed by a book

no. 5

@lulublack90

mature

so actually i prefer to read Lulu’s work directly from his tumblr but here’s the ao3 link too. for whatever reason, Lulu doesn’t show up on my dashboard even though i follow them so i have taken to searching for her account everyday to read the updates. the current jegulus microfic storyline started mid february and i am so enthralled. Lulu also writes wolfstar microfics that don’t follow a storyline, which is great bc when i’m catching up on days, i’ll be reading the intense jegulus scene and then scroll up to read wolfstar fluff

I apologize to all authors whom I tagged in this post for pulling you into business you might not be interested in discussing, but as a fandom we need to have a discussion.

Recently I've been seeing so many AI uploads on Tiktok of works by Ao3 authors who have EXPLICITLY stated they do not wish for 1) their works to be bound (for profit or at all) 2) Put up on Goodreads/Storygraph and other types of "rating" sites. 3) Reposted on tiktok or shared in "snippets" on tiktok unless they share it themselves as many of them have their own accounts.

Yet this fandom continues to completely DISREGARD and IGNORE their wishes by finding loopholes in order to post their work under the excuse "I did not know"./"they haven't spoken about this". I'm talking specifically about AI made Art for a fanfic.

Not only is creating these when the authors have expressed a dislike for it incredibly disrespectful to the authors who're writing for us in their FREE time, it also continues an already negative cycle of distrust to the readers from the authors side. Also, it adds a negative relationship with our own talented artists who create fanart of fics but also fanart for fanarts sake such as #likeafuneral who has asked to stop being reposted unless by @aeteut

So far I've encountered @otrtbs (Art Heist, Baby!) #bizarrestars work for @mayescapade (Crimson Rivers) but I'll expect that @solmussa's work (Only the Brave, or You Signed Up for This) will soon pop up. Equally could @sophsicle, @imdamagecontrol or @greenvlvetcouch's works pop up, or anyone else who (to my understanding) seems like a popular author within the fandom.

My point with this point is not to shame anyone but to point out how we (as a collective fandom) NEED to start treating out authors better or they WILL stop posting. Thank you and good night.

Only The Brave is the most criminally underrated fic in the fandom. The writing?? The plot??? The range of characters??? @solmussa you made me feel all the feels. Extra points for the Rubik’s cube thing because speedcubing is my favourite hobby and this fic was my multiverse of madness.

[brandileigh2003]

what are you reading and/or writing right now?

Hi!

I'm reading quite a few things, 2 with book clubs and one with a friend (another is reliving through our rambles), 1 TTS audio for the car and another just by myself on Kindle lol.

-crimson rivers by bizarrestars

-only the brave by solmussa

-blends by rvltn909

-second generations series by Ms alexwp

-some from remus lupin fest and others are coming soon on tbr @remuslupinfest

-Our Names Will Be Written In The Stars

(also I have last chapter of presque vu by bizarrestars staring at me in my email and I'm not ready for it to end, so haven't clicked. I have a whole list of wips as well if anyone interested, I could try to remember them)

**I'm writing 2 things (3 technically but I think my death eater meeting one will be abandoned bc no inspiration anymore). One is in silence between us series, another is based on this beautiful art but make them older in lie low at lupins era. (@lucigoo it's for wifey's beloved prompt ❤️)

hi!! 5 and 21 for regulus please <3

Aye Yooo!! (Thank you~)

Those are really good ones too!

5- I actually have a few songs that come to mind for Regulus because I am low-key (high-key) obsessed with making playlists for my various WIPs. So here's just my top 5 (because I have to limit myself here...) and why:

Regulus - ONEWE First of all, the title obviously XD. But aside from that, it's so pretty too! and I looked up the English translation and there's this one line that kills me,

"I'm withering, but you don't be withering Remember me even when I'm gone, yeah, just a little selfishly This star is precious a living and breathing memory Even if it's far away from the earth"

2. Reckless Driving - Lizzy McAlpine & Ben Kessler The StarChaser vibes are simply immaculate in this song.

3. Lonely Star - Oh Wonder Honestly, this one kind of speaks for itself (ToT) 4. Hymne a l'amour - Edith Piaf What can I say? Solmussa's Only the Brave rewired my brain. I listen to this song all the time.

5. Stay - Phemiec This one also have fantastic Starchaser vibes and honestly Phemiec's songs from this album are all in my playlist for The Art of Running for Our Lives. The lyrics, "She made it okay to not be okay. She made me believe that someone would, that someone could Stay" just really hit hardest with a pleasant mix of Black Brothers angst and StarChaser <3 21- I think that my favorite thing to do while writing Regulus is to give him some sort of obsession with the stars.

I know it's kind of a cliche answer, but I'm also the type of person who will step out of the house at 3 am to just look at the sky for a second and exist in that space for a little bit. I love the stars so much and my biggest dream is to go to one of those Dark Sky Conservatories and my goal is to project that onto Regulus and Sirius in anyway possible. <3

I also love writing him to be happy. I put this man through absolute hell because the more they hurt, the better the comfort. (and since I'm a slut for happy endings and hurt/comfort, it just makes all the pain so much more worth it! My least favorite thing..? I'm not gonna lie, I actually really love writing Regulus. I find it a lot easier to write from the perspective of a character with a lot of emotional depth and trauma than anything else. Oddly enough, because of this, I actually struggle a bit more with writing James.

I guess if you'd like another answer, it would be smut. Not because I don't like it, but because the last time I wrote a full smut scene was on Wattpad when I was in high school. Which I graduated from in 2016. 😂 (The worst part is that it still exists on the internet forever. 😔)

Weekend snippet!

Thanks @imsiriuslyreading for the tag, this one's for you ;)

“Merlin Moony, I swore I’d never fuck up like that again, and now look at me.” Sirius looked at his palms, open abrasions caked with dirt and grime. Fingernails that had once been proudly painted black, chewed down and brittle like thin parchment. Fingers skeletal, just skin on old bones. Any indication that he’d once worn a cherished ring was long gone, just like the ring itself and what it had once represented. A love no longer. Ripped apart by his own two, treacherous, hands, by his own formidable rage.

Help I'm writing sad and I don't know how to handle it.
