I Have Some Advice For A Way To Portray The Marauders And Snape's Relationship! They Bullied Him, But

I have some advice for a way to portray the Marauders and Snape's relationship! They bullied him, but Snape was never defenseless (except for That Prank) and I think it started from some animosity on the train during their first year, them Snape continued to be a jerk. Snape seemed to be the only person that they were constantly picking on, so must've done something to earn their ire. They were pranksters, but not normally bullies. Most of the students and teachers had mostly good things to say about them.

I think a good way to portray it is that the Marauders and Snape constantly being at each other's throats in small, petty ways. The Marauders would only go after Snape when he deserved it or was being extra bloodcult-y. They were bullies because they all ganged up on him, but I don't think that was always the case.

I think they had some kind of moral code - they were Gryffindors after all, if nothing else, their honor would've stopped them from always going after him physically - so it was usually just one on one or two to one. The others would be the lookouts, or help them plan. They'd insult him and he'd fire right back.

Most of their pranks were harmless, I think, except for The Prank. Mostly cutting words and petty actions that didn't mean much at the time, but mounted up to he quite annoying.

Hope this helps!

Hey Anon!

Firstly, thank you for the advice. I really appreciate it.

Secondly, I've been interacting with some Snape stans because I wanted him to be humanized. Snape, as well as the Marauders, are going to have a lot of flaws, but also a lot of good traits. There are going to be times in which the Marauders prank Snape unprovoked. There are going to be other times where it is going to be Snape who's going after them.

We're going to see a lot of Snape's softer side during their fifth and sixth years, after his relationship with Lily ends. Lily will be grieving for their lost friendship, and will sometimes talk about fond memories with Snape. I don't want to spoil it too much, that is all you'll be getting.

Now, Snape is not going to be defenseless. He will lash out and get his revenge when he feels is needed. But neither will the Marauders. For the majority of the story, it's going to be a mutual rivalry, until the moment they humiliated him in front of the school - this incident is going to shift something within a lot of people, for the better or for the worst.

Someone disagreeing with your lifestyle doesn’t make them an awful or hateful person, how they treat the people they disagree with does. And if you treat them badly because you disagree with their views, you might be the hateful one.

You’re right, it does depend on how that person deals with someone else’s different opinion.

Here’s the difference between me and JK Rowling:

ROWLING.

Uses the money she’s earned from her books to support people who harms the Trans community.

Uses her large platform to spread hate and misconceptions of the Trans community in the name of “feminism”.

Uses the name of a man who pioneered the gay conversion therapies as a pen name and refuses to truly apologize for it or at least acknowledge that she’s done a terrible decision in chosing the pen name (this is in case she genuinely didn’t know about who Robert Galbraith was — although it’s not much of an excuse because she should always check the name before using it).

Invalidates the struggles of Trans women constantly.

Also, she friendly with Marilyn Mason. A known rapist, who likes to psychologically torture women by banishing them into enclosed, soundproofed room. His victims now suffer bouts of anxiety, depression, and PTSD. So much for feminism, huh? (I’ll be making a more in-depth post about this specific point later).

This is just off the top of my head.

ME.

When it comes to people I meet IRL, I always check if their decision to be a TERF comes from ignorance or not. If it’s not ignorance I simply don’t interact with them without starting a fight or anything. Snip Snip. Good day to you.

When it comes to Rowling, who, again, uses her large platform to do more harm than good, I criticize her. I don’t even send death threats, I don’t invalidate her experiences as a woman. I disagree, I explain why I disagree, and that’s pretty much it.

I’m only aggressive when it comes to people with big platforms harming a certain community. Because what you may perceive as a harmless opinion is actually a huge weight that is being placed onto trans people and their allies. What do you think her supporters do when she tweets shit like that?

REMEMBER:

Whether you like pineapples on pizza or not is an opinion.

Whether someone’s gender identity is valid or not, is NOT an opinion.

Jeverus/Snames is a thing?

I just found out that there are people who ship James Potter with Snape and I don’t know how to deal with it. I’m not trying to shame anyone, but you’ve got Marauder stans and Snape stans and then you’ve got people who think they belong together? How? Where’s the logic behind that? I’m genuinely curious.

Harry Potter Rewrite: Google Form.

Hello my loves,

I’ve been a bit stuck while writing (nothing to worry about, I just have the attention span of a five-year-old and cannot focus for the life of me), but I still wanted to hear more about what you guys want to see! So, I found a much more organized way of doing that!

Google Form!

Honestly, I’m really excited to see what you guys want or don’t want. Who knows, maybe something will strike me and help me keep writing! Remember, I accept headcanons of every character that isn’t Dumbledore. Literally tell me about anyone else except him.

Asks and PMs are always welcomed, too!

Can people please shut the fuck up about how “shipping every male character is harmful to the male friendship representation”

Literally almost every single peace of media has platonic male friendships in it and almost none of them ends up in a canon relationship. So there IS representation. Some people shipping those characters don’t take away their canon friendship.

And it doesn’t only happen to the male friendships. Every close female and male/female friendship you see on screen will always have people shipping them.

Because guess what? That’s how fandoms work. It doesn’t only happen with male friendships.

Are we really ignoring all the people who assume every man and woman who breaths the same air are canonically in love with each other? But somehow it’s only a problem when queer people do it.

Are we really ignoring how we get so little male/female friendships in media without writers turning it romantic at some point?

But we never get to see two close male leads of an action movie kissing at the end do we? So shut up about “friendship representation” You have tons of platonic friendships.

And the thing is, a lot of people who say this don’t even care about platonic friendships or mlm fetishization by straight girls. They’re just trying to find a way to put queer ships down. They never say “I think this two specific characters are good friends so I don’t like it when people ship them”

Instead, it’s always “these characters showed a little pinch of interest to opposite gender so they’re straight. just let people be friends and stop making everything gay”

Because they’re not actually mad about people shipping two close friends together. They’re mad about people offering the possibility of some fictional characters not being straight
