i wanna boi but it’s wolfstar
sirius: i kissed her.
james: what?
remus: when?
peter: who?
sirius: about a month ago.
james: how am i just finding out?
remus: did she… kissed you back?
peter: who are we talking about?
remus: marlene.
sirius: yes. no. i don’t know, what does it matter?
remus: your kidding, right? tell me you’re joking.
james: how can you not know that?
peter: mckinnon?
sirius: yes, peter, how many marlene’s have you met? and no, i’m not joking. i mean, i understand how fundamental it is to know if a girl kiss you back or not, but we didn’t have time. i had to leave.
remus: you kissed her and then ran? and you wonder why she isn’t crawling back for more like the rest of them?
sirius: we were in the middle of “the plan”! james was there, he was calling me, that’s why i left.
james: how could i’ve been there when i just found out you kissed marlene?
sirius: you came after it happened.
james: so i interrupted you?
sirius: no. yes. what does it matter? i kissed her and then left. it was a busy day.
james: you don’t say…
remus: you left her cause you had to pulled a stupid prank?
james: hey, don’t take it out on “the plan”, it was brilliant!
sirius: that’s not the point, prongs.
james: right, sorry.
peter: what is the point though?
remus: the point is that sirius is a complete idiot. it amazes me how you managed to fool every girl in the castle into wanting to go out with you.
peter: except the one he wants.
sirius: thanks for that.
james: so what happened afterwards? when you saw her again, i mean.
sirius: nothing.
james: nothing?
remus: you haven’t talked to her since?
sirius: we’ve talked, just… not about that. it all has been normal, as if nothing happened.
james: are you sure you kissed and you didn’t… imagine it?
peter: oh, i’ve been there.
sirius: unlike you, peter, i don’t need to fantasize to get a girl to kiss me.
remus: don’t take it out on peter. it isn’t his fault you kissed her and then ran away.
sirius: i didn’t ran away.
james: this is getting nowhere. what are you gonna do now?
sirius: that’s what i’m asking you lot.

lineart & more versions under the cut!
working hard to have both versions of "marauders: the untold story" ready so i can drop the next chapter tomorrow!
a blackinnon story told in reverse: from the heart achingly lost of her life to the very beginning when they started to fell in love.
bonus points if near her death they closer to breaking up o they were already apart.
marlene mckinnon’s hair went through the same phases as miley cyrus’s hair over the years.
Do you ever think about the fact that Sirius wanted to die for James? He wanted to be the Potters' secret keeper. He knew what would happen if he was and Voldemort found him. He INTENDED to die for James and his family. Sirius saw no future for himself. His happy ending was dying for James and Lily and Harry, granting them safety, and he was robbed even of that.
Remus and Harry from chapter 14 of PoA
day 14 - dancing under the rain - blackinnon - @blackinnonfest
she loved to hear her friends' stories about their holidays in remote places. after all, that was what wizards were like, always secluded, hiding from muggles, either by getting as far away from them as possible or by using spells to repel them.
lily, however, shared different stories and had made them all jealous.
that was how they all turn up camping, the muggle way, on a site near the beach. the state of their world was so bleak, they knew there was a chance that for it to be only opportunity they could all be together that way. a group of teenage wizards and witches living the muggle way, if only for a few days.
what none of them had accounted it for, was the rain. it was supposed to be mid summer for merlin's sake. they were all sheltered under their tents, waiting for it to pass. it had been whole day by then.
"oh for god's sake, this is stupid" marlene said, getting out of the tent she was sharing with sirius.
"what are you doing? get back here!" sirius shouted, pocking his head out the tent. "there's no fire, mckinnon, we won't be able to warm your clothes if you get them all wet, you'll catch a cold" he was aware he sounded to motherly for his usual disregard of common sense, but he wasn't particularly interested in sharing a tent with a sick person, even if it was his girl.
"we'll use magic then" she replied.
"what's going on?" james head appeared out of his own tent.
"what's happening?" lily's voice join in.
"i'm going out for a walk" marlene stated.
"you can't!" lily shouted, emerging from under james' head.
"watch me!" marlene shouted back as she started running in the direction of the beach.
"oh for fuck's sake" sirius hissed, getting to his feet and running after her.
when he finally reached her, she was laughing, trying to get away from the waves as they make their ways to her feet before retrieving once more.
it was silly, giving the fact that after spending as much as ten seconds under the rain, both he and marlene were soaking wet.
but she, sirius could tell, was having too much fun, it was contagious, her laugh, the way her curls stick to her face.
he ran towards her and picked her up. marlene yelped in delight. he managed to run a few feet before putting her down again.
marlene hands landed on his chest, a broad smile on her face.
"what about the cold?" she asked.
"there's no muggles around, mckinnon" he replied.
marlene head turn to take a look at the beach. sirius was right, they were the only ones left.
"guess we'll have to use magic then" she laugh, getting on her tip toes to land a kiss on sirius' lips.
she loved he was the only guy tall enough to required for her to strech out to get to his level.
after that, sirius turn her on his arms, as if they have been dancing, and when he pulled her closed again, marlene had the fleeting though that right there, that moment with sirius, was all the magic they needed.
seconds later, they were joined by lily and james, the only ones brave enough to get under the rain, and spent the rest of the afternoon chasing each other, laughing and screaming, just as regular teenagers should do.
Sirius doesn’t feel sad, he just feels empty. His little star just burst.
