Sirius Black
Bellatrix is the kind of person who, if she loves you, protects you from everything, but if she hates you, she tries every way to destroy you.
ANOTHER ASK how do we see hinny and blackinnon in a happy ending world when no one is dead
uhhh but there’s a catch though: no war and happy ending means we don’t get the same harry potter from canon and we do erased a lot of the parallels he had with teenage sirius BUT…
we do end up having a harry who grows up to be what sirius couldn’t, seeing as he either didn’t have or didn’t felt like he had a very loving and supportive family (even if walburga and orion intended for it to be that way)
and maybe in the end that’s why when hinny get together and grow up they get married and have kids and settle into a very domestic life, harry emulating in a way his parents and obviously ginny hers, because both actually had a happy childhood surrounded by their blood relatives
where as blackinnon will forever be too wild to be tame for social pressure and boring standards. it’s not that they don’t love each other, they just have different priorities and, besides, sirius probably sees harry as his own kid and marlene loves him dearly. i also think marlene has a ton of nieces and nephews from her brothers so there’s plenty of family there and she loves being the favorite auntie
i like the idea of harry having both james and sirius as role models and still taking after his dad and for sirius to watch him grow into an adult without any major complex or traumas, cause as much as the way sirius is could be just his personality, there’s probably a lot of unpack trauma there too
like is he happy in a relationship outside of marriage? sure. did his parents marriage influence his views on the matter? maybe. maybe he doesn’t even know because, again: unpack trauma
sirius black is the king of remaining sane amongst any trouble, especially inner turbulences.
as for happy endings, i can totally see this being the right scenario for blackinnon staying together once and for all and who knows, maybe surprising all of their friend by getting married way into his older years!

Do you have any headcanons about Wizarding cultural norms and stereotypes?
I love how your brain works ❤️❤️
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️ My brain is mostly fuelled by tea and spite, but it does try. So I love thinking about cultural quirks and here are some of my hcs:
1. Table manners look very different in old wizarding families.
Especially the ones who look down on Muggle etiquette. In some of the oldest families, you eat off a trencher and don’t necessarily use a fork. And there’s a cloth slung over your left shoulder, like in Elizabethan or Tudor times (I still have a bit of Wolf Hall brain rot), that you use to wipe your hands.
2. Birth charts are taken extremely seriously.
Almost every magical child has a birth chart drawn up the day they’re born. St. Mungo’s has an entire department that does this, because it’s considered that important. People absolutely reference their charts in daily life.
3. Wand funeral rites are non-negotiable.
Wands are either buried with the person or ritualistically burnt when someone passes. It’s seen as really bad luck to keep or use a dead person’s wand. A wand goes with its person. Keeping it is taboo and viewed with deep suspicion.
4. The concept of pure-blood varies by culture.
The British definition is very specific, but it’s not universal. Other magical cultures define purity differently. In some places, it’s about the continuity of magical teaching. In others, it doesn’t exist at all as a social category.
5. Family sashes are worn at weddings and then exchanged.
Each member of the wedding party wears their family colours. After the vows, the sashes are exchanged as a gesture of unity and joining. It matters deeply in old magical families and is considered one of the most symbolic parts of the ceremony.
6. Weddings are not white.
In most old magical families, white is considered a colour for mourning. Wedding garments are typically gold, deep red, forest green, or midnight blue. Gold is especially traditional in Mediterranean magical families.
7. Pregnancy is considered a prophetically potent time.
Pregnant witches are often believed to be more magically attuned. It’s common to visit a dream seer during the second trimester — someone trained to interpret the dreams of the expectant mother.
8. First movement is marked with a fire spell.
When the unborn child first kicks or moves, it’s tradition to light a fire with a spell cast by the pregnant witch herself. Then that fire is kept burning until the child is born.
9. You never point your wand at the sky unless you’re making an oath.
It’s an old tradition, possibly Celtic in origin, that raising your wand skyward invokes the elements as witness. Children are warned against it as strongly as they’re warned against Unforgivables. To the sky means a vow, and it is expected to be honoured.
10. Certain flowers are magically significant and avoided indoors.
Lilies are considered death flowers. They are used in soul-anchoring rites during funerals. Forget-me-nots are essential in memory magic and shouldn’t be handled while drinking or before exams. Poppies, used to dull magical pain, are never left near a wand overnight. It’s said they dull a wand’s magical firepower.
11. You don’t write a person’s name in red ink.
Across most wizarding cultures, this is considered deeply disrespectful. Red ink is used in blood pacts, contract severances, and formal magical excommunication. Writing someone’s name in red is a symbolic disowning. Teachers correct essays in green or purple.
12. Family portraits are part of the household warding.
Hanging a portrait of a deceased relative strengthens the home’s protective magic. In older families, these portraits are passed down. Some serve as sentries. Some offer advice or judgemental comments about you.

i genuinely didn’t think more than 3 people would like this concept 😂
marauders au in which they are immortals (base on the old guard).
need to stop coming up with new ideas when i can’t even update anything right now. but i can’t. too many ideas.
marls being the oldest immortal before crossing paths with the marauders. james and sirius playing russian roulette constantly in their first years. remus becoming a sniper. peter the strategic mind behind all their ventures. sirius being the only one that can contact marls when they need her. them trying to get to the new inmortal: lily evans, before government finds out. tempted to add regulus for the drama. sirius having to deal with his shit, maybe a little moonwater?
james getting closer to marlene through quidditch, starting to think of her as a little sister, obviously thinking sirius feels the same way 'cause they share the same brain cells and then BOOM! sirius kissing her???!! what do you mean you like her??? SHE'S LIKE A SISTER TO US???
