#maraude

Hi there,

I’ve been quiet cause I’m spending all my free time drawing cups and bowls for my sweetest gay boys 🥹🫠

I don’t know when I manage to stop to post the whole one, let’s hope I will have some self control.

The Queer Utopia of the Marauders Fandom | Video Essay

Hello, so I wanted to come on and say that if anyone is new to the marauders fandom and is feeling extremely overwhelmed by all the details, relationships, character arcs, fancasts, etc and it’s just all over the place really...but most of all I’ve had people come to me asking how this specific era has such a huge community behind it, is so popular to the point that people claim to love of harry potter’s dad and his gay friends more than the chosen one himself (the one who got like 8 blockbuster films and 7 books? yeah that one). I think this video is a great place to start.

All creds to jubil3e on Youtube who posted this simple, easy to follow video essay explaining the whole upcoming of the marauders era, and the process in which fans started to fill in the gaps to characters who were only mentioned in 1 sentence or less...it’s truly incredible and the gift that keeps on giving. 

I intend on giving as many resources as possible to new fans or to any marauders fans that might be feeling like the fandom is way ahead of them (don’t worry, I totally get you and we’ve all been there before). 

So the best place for resources would be tiktok honestly, the platform that started it all (alone with ao3 and tumblr). People have made slideshows and powerpoint presentations you can download, lots of shorter explanation videos that are talking about more specific areas (unlike the video above which is more like the general picture) I’ll link some very helpful sites in my next blog with credits to all the incredible creators of course.

In this we have Hogwarts school for unwanted children

Horse noices ever time a group of people walk

Hermione is a goblin sex offender

Neville dies three times

Hagrid is a dealer and wants to kill Harry

If Harry likes you your safe, but if he doesn't you have to fear for your life

Harry sings a song about how Ron is disgusting and smells like bad marmalade that moleds the first day

Lockhart is actually Gargamel and has a gold treasure that Ron and Harry are after

Snape is the home ec teacher and teaches how to bake piebuns

It's also discussed if Snape is actually blond

Dumbledore loves parties and alcohol, often combined

In a scean where Dumbledore and McGonagall walks in Ron describes them as Gandal and Lady Gaga

“ All the slytherin’s quidditch players had their hair dyed in bright red colors, but the prank hasn’t come from james or sirius”

Sirius: come on man! I won’t be mad, just tell me how you did it.

James: Ok, Sirius. I don’t know why you’re acting like that, but I know it was you, I just feel sad that you didn’t tell me.

Sirius: Mate, for Godric’s sake, if you tell me how did you do it I’ll give you 5 galleons, I HAVE TO DO THIS WITH MY FAMILY MAN.

Remus: Oh, it was quite simple, later I’ll give you the details, but I’ll take your money now

Sirius: ....

James:....

Remus: *winks*

Remus: *leave*

Sirius: *crying* I’m so in love

Sorry i don't post much its just that only 3 people who follow me actually look at my stuff. Its not a lack of drawing usually its more that this platform doesn't work for me.

I've heard the whole draw fanart thing to get peeps to look at ya but honestly I just don't like doing it

Here's a doodle from 2016
