"But Sirius hated Regulus in canon!!"
No, he may have hated some parts of Regulus, but he loved him at the same time. You can hate someone but never cease to love them. He hated the views he held, the pureblood nonsense and all the decisions Regulus made.
He never hated him. Why? Because even after all the wrong choices, Sirius still saw his baby brother who looked up to him his entire life.
Everyone talks about Harry and Lily's eyes in the movie and how Ginny and Ron weren't given justice. But what about Harry and James' CHARACTER and important part of their looks.
They both have the same face, hair, glasses, height and very similar personalities. They were so similar that Harry pointed out their differences which were only their nose and eyes.
Their unusually messy jet-black hair is so important because that's what makes them look so similar and stand out because their hair is so messy. Their height wasn't very important except it told us an estimate of James' height (Harry's height).
The movies completely missed out that Harry is very composed in awkward and most situations. Whenever Harry and Cho interacted in the movies, Harry was this awkward, nervous guy while Cho was the stand up, confident girl while in the books, Harry was all composed (Even when sprayed by Neville's plant in OotP) and natural and Cho was the nervous one. In the movies, Harry was well-known, but girls didn't ask him out everywhere and he was struggling to get a girl. In the books, nearly every girl was asking him out and he denied them, one because a girl was taller than him. Harry was NOT awkward, the most he'll do is blush slightly, look away and go silent. In HBP, he doesn't randomly stand up when Ginny walks into the slug-club, I actually wanted to die watching him interact with girls in the movies.
In general, Harry is a popular jock and hexed people (Goyle, Crabbe and Filch) in the corridors for no reason, but they were stupid (They deserved it though). He had much of James' personality, like with how he can be arrogant, but a savior and empathetic.
With James, in the movies, we were only shown his flaws and weren't shown that he was insanely loyal, stood up for muggle born rights (Despite being a wealthy pure blood), sacrificed his life, saved Snape's life, was a good person, smart, broke the law for his werewolf friend, despised the dark arts, let his runaway friend live with him, supported his werewolf friend financially, was friends with outcasts, head boy, good father and person.
The movies showed that he was a bully, didn't care for people. And when we saw his body in the movies, they didn't show he voluntarily stood up to Voldemort. The movies made it seem like he didn't try to go against him, but was just killed like Voldemort does to all his targets, while they made it look like it was just Lily who sacrificed her life.
In the books, it showed that Harry and James had the same, matching Patronus's. IT was so important because it made Harry think his dad somehow came back to life. Like how Harry went-
"Dad. . ."
-in PoA when he saw the stag patronus. Having James and Harry look so similar, act similar and die similar (Having both James and Harry stand up against Voldemort voluntarily and voluntarily go to him) was entirely erased in the movie adaption. It was James' sacrifice that made Harry sacrifice his life in the forbidden forest and fight Voldemort in the graveyard when Voldemort mentioned that James stood tall against him.
Everything would've been different if Voldemort gave James the choice to live and back off just like Voldemort gave Lily the choice.
ballet academy au | blackinnon edition
boys in the ballet —well, men actually, but he recognize he had been acting more like a boy these days— were often times invisible. often in the background, unseen. they were like accessories of no true significance.
but the truth was, they were important. vastly so.
see, they were the pillars on top of which the whole piece, the whole choreography, rested on. they were unseen much like the beams in the ceiling of the theatre. yet the whole building would collapse if they weren’t there.
he realized that now, whether he liked it or not.
and it was all her fault.
he was ready to leave, to put it all behind him, but he wasn’t prepared to deal with the fact that it would be his fault if marlene’s career crumbled down.
pt. 1 | pt. 2
au marlene survives, sirius gets released from azkaban
sirius: i– i thought you were dead, marls *desperately clinging to her*
marlene: is that why you went full ballistic and manage to get yourself locked in azkaban? azkaban, sirius, of all places! *clasping sirius face between her hands*
sirius: you don’t understand, i thought– i thought– i–
marlene: that peter did it?
sirius: what? how? what the hell marls?!
marlene: it pays to know your secrets, sirius. now let’s put padfoot’s nose to good use and find that coward
sirius: are you seeing anyone?
regulus: like a spirit? *looks around* not at the moment.
sirius looking concerned: …
regulus: oh you meant a relationship?
padfoot, sirius
Lily: It's okay you can tell me. How bad can it be?
Marlene:
Marlene: What is the thing you wouldn't allow?
Lily: Marls, I would defend you if you had a body to hide right now.
Mary: Oh, oh- you won't be defending this one!
Lily: What? The only thing that I would get mad at is her having anything to do with Potter. Like dating his best friend, for example- Mary why are you laughing-
Marlene:
Marlene: I'm so dead.
Sometimes I’m just scrolling and then horribly reminded that other people’s favourite characters Aren’t sirius black and that’s just unfathomable
