Marlene Mckinnon - Blog Posts

Yooooooo

So update on the Marauders x Ocean’s 11 (i tried to do only girls but this line up just worked so well)

James as Danny Ocean

Lily as Rusty (we know who the real brain is)

Sirius as Ruben

Mary as Saul

Dorcas as Frank?

Marlene as Basher

Pandora as Yen?

Regulus as Linus

Evan and Barty as Virgil and Turk

Lily as Livingston

Peter as Tess (no romantic Prongstail)

Voldy as Benedict

(Obviously it’s their global role, they won’t be exactly them)

You seemed interested: @braddicted

Because I’ve noticed a lot of Marauders people are also big Hamilton fans and I want to check this theory

Barty, Pandora, Peter, Mary, and Lily are left handed.

James, Remus, Regulus, Evan, Marlene, and Dorcas are all right handed.

Sirius was supposed to be left handed but his parents made him only use his right and now he’s right handed.

currently seeing Paramore live and ok pop off Marlene McKinnon

Child/young me joining the Harry Potter and One Direction fandoms and finding everyone shipping canonically straight men/women together: What the FuCk did I join? 🤠😲

Adult me: *believes everyone is bisexual so I can ship them with each other, with their canon partners and of course with my favourite ship, with myself* 😏

Angela Leia Monique

You guys didn't think I'd give you like 5 fanfiction moment in my Dr without my personal fancasts for them did you? 👀 GOOD. Cause here's the marauders group in my Dr (+ me)

Sirius Black. James Potter. Lily Evans.

Remus Lupin. Marlene McKinnon. Dorcas Meadowes

Mary Macdonalds. Pandora Rosier. Evan Rosier

Part 2 next 📜

꒰⁠⑅⁠ᵕ⁠༚⁠ᵕ⁠꒱⁠˖⁠♡

Welcome to canon couples in my DR

(don't take this personally, it's just my opinion)

1) Pandora Rosier x Lily Evans

Pandora "my family told me my dreams are just dreams" Rosier x Lily "Well, my family taught me to follow my dreams" Evans

• this couple is the absolute cutest, two goddess queens both learning they have feelings for each other

• Pandora grew up with an evil family and felt she should be kind, she sees kindness as her only real superpower, not being psychic . Pandora being proud of lily for seeing the good in not only the people around her but herself

• Lily grew up judged for her blood type, sometimes she still does worry if she's being judged but Pandora quickly likes to help her see the light, that she doesn't see lily any different

• Pandora loves to talk and gush about lily to regulus while lily loves to talk and gush about Pandora to Benjamin (me) (speaking in first person so I feel like a character and therefore apart of the marauders lol)

2) Dorcas Meadowes x Marlene McKinnon

• classic badass lesbian couple

• started out as academic rivals despite both being in Slytherin

• "I scored an A+ dork." "groans. for now you have McKinnon. But that charms test is mine."

• Dorcas likes to play basketball, and she plays it rough. Marlene just watches with a bucket of popcorn, cheering her girlfriend on with a smug grin whenever Dorcas punches someone's face in

• Marlene growing up to have internal homophobia and Dorcus helping her see their love is real, and love is love

• On their anniversary night, Marlene gifts Dorcas a real rare dragon that Dorcas has no idea how she got, Marlene replies with a simple "I have my ways"

• while Dorcas checks the collar of the dragon, she notices the locket open and inside a diamond ring. when she turns around, Marlene is on one knee with arms spread open

"marry me dork?"

3) Mary Macdonalds x Evan Rosier

• stone head x hopeless romantic

• they meet in the library while Mary is reading a novel and Evan is selling cocaine to a customer, he realizes she saw and approaches her, attempting to suave her into not telling "Romeo and Juliet huh?" he asks, Mary raises an eyebrow "this is Macbeth." she replies making him freeze up, she smiles "don't worry, I won't tell", he smiles back "cool"

• he tries to get her to try drugs a little but she refuses with a burning passion, after a few months go by he stops taking drugs cause he wants to be better for her

• after mary gets dumped by yet another boyfriend, she feels undesirable and goes to evan to find solace. Evan listens to her every word with a burning sensation in his chest, he comforts her up close, rubbing her back.

"I want to be someone's first choice, Evan"

"....you are mary." he whispers, she frowns

"no no- I know what you mean. I'm not his first choice." she says, Evan frowns

"you're someone's first choice," he replies, but he's not brave enough to say "you're my first choice"

• after a few months together, she's reading a romantic novel to him and gushing, talking about fanfiction and he just listens with a smile on his face. "and then he lifts her chin up and kisses her!! ahh! so romantic!" she squeals and Evan smiles before it fades, before he can rethink, he's lifting her chin up, getting close and pressing his lips to hers. they separate after awhile and he notices her wide eyes, he smiles sheepishly

• "you're my first choice, Marian."

4) Sirius Black x James Potter

• the definition of ultimate bromance

• started off with them making fun and teasing other couples, even going as far as kissing and hugging each other, but both secretly start to like it

• they're best friends to lovers, Sirius enjoys Remus company sure but no one quite understands his chaotic-ness like James does, a lover and a best friend is the best you can get right?

• they're running down the halls after pranking Severus Snape again before they see professor McGonagall walking straight down the hallway, they panic and hide in a small secluded area trying not to breath each other's air

• "well, it seems we've found each other in a tight situation" James replies with a grin making Sirius grin back "good one James" he retorts playfully

• they stay there for awhile and notice McGonagall is gone, but both seemed to like...being up close. they wouldn't tell each other that though

• extreme slow burn, Sirius isn't the one with internal homophobia. anything his parents is against, he fully supports so gay rights is his middle name. James is the one who has to deal with the conflict, he's undoubtedly sure his parents will support him but he still struggles

• I also feel like they're the same but in different fonts lol, like they'll look at a situation and think "should we?" and the other is like "definitely"

5) Remus lupin x Barty Crouch Jr

come on now

Remus "I'm a fucking werewolf, does that not bother you?" Lupin " x Barty "I have dreamt of this moment my entire life. Crush me now." Crouch Jr

• they're damn chaotic. barty regularly tries to set a building on fire and Remus is behind him 'trying' to stop him but secretly adds more gasoline

• they bring out each other's worse in the best way that you can't help but see the appeal

• definition of "partners in crime" except the crime is getting James to admit his feelings to Sirius but he is in EXTREME denial

• Barty growing up in a household similar to an orphanage, too many kids around and the only way he felt noticed was by being a little gremlin

• Remus who actually grew up in orphanage but did the same although soon realizes those people weren't his parents and stopped trying to get their attention or approval

• both understand each other in a deeper way

• they also have nasty sex LMAO

• they're both tall, semi strong and extremely dominant. if your dorm is across from them, and you hear screams of agony and things crashing into the walls, don't worry they're just making love <3

• masochism tango is their song, I'm calling it

• they're a healthy couple emotionally and mentally guys, they just a little kinky physically 🤭

god I ship them with a burning passion, you cannot take them away from me 😭😭😭

Marauders & co. at an airport/ on a plane

James: Looks in every shop at the airport, is really hyper up until he gets on the plane, then he’s pretty chill

Sirius: Terrified of flying on a plane (will fly on a literal broomstick but can’t even think about flying in an enclosed space). Brings his skincare to do on the plane.

Remus: Forces everyone to get to the airport early, packs the night before, is at least 20 people’s airport crush. Reads the whole plane ride

Peter: Brings snacks, magazines, games. Gets lost but makes friends with some random person who he’ll never see again

Marlene: Goes into every shop with James, will not chill out on the plane (always asks the flight attendants a million questions), is that annoying person who claps when the plane lands

Lily: Helps Remus rangle everyone into coming to the airport early, has her whole suitcase organised, sleeps on the plane

Mary: Forces everyone to get to the gate early, first in line onto the plane, gets really stressed (especially going through security)

Regulus: Looks chill, but he’s actually really scared of planes (like Sirius), has monogrammed luggage, listens to music on the plane. Sits on the aisle seat

Pandora: Is actually super chill, has the “we get there when we get there” mentality. If no one dragged her along to be early she’d turn up as the gate was closing. Brings her latest craft project onto the plane (not like messy stuff, like crochet or embroidery or smth)

Dorcas: Makes sure no one gets lost, is at least 20 people’s airport crush (like Remus), is willing to put people on one of those backpack leash things. Talks to people on the plane.

Evan: Tired™️. It doesn’t matter if the flight is at 1pm, he’ll still sleep at every chance he gets. Goes crazy when the airport has a Lego shop. Sleeps on the plane (obvi)

Barty: Is extremely annoying. Won’t be ready when everyone has to leave, definitely forgot something at home, is super annoying on the flight (will be that person that “asks questions” when the flight attendants are doing the safety thing), claps when the plane lands.

Marauders & co as things my sister has said (she’s deranged, Istg)

- James: (Talking about storm troopers) look at them running around like tic tacs. Tica tica tica tica

- Barty: When I grow up I’m gonna be a Kidnapper

- Sirius: Can you touch this hole in my foot? Regulus: no. I don’t want to touch the hole in your foot. Sirius: Whyyyyyyyy

- Barty: See ya sisters! Wait are you taking a video? Take a video [regulus]! Okay. See ya sisters!

- Pandora: This foot massager is like dislocated bones wiggling around under skin. I love it

(These are all the ones I have written down in my notes app, but my sister is completely nuts and has said some way weirder stuff)

@mylordcheezer has technically given me permission to rant, so here it is.

1. James and Sirius would so watch h2o because it’s almost like their animagus, as in they turn into mermaids and they have to hide it. Also, the fact that’s they would be outcast by society if they revealed their secret would remind them of Remus (also Emma Cleo and Ricky go a bit loopy on full moons and they have to hide from the moon and other people, almost like the shrieking shack). Mostly they would watch it just for funsies tho

2. (Kinda spoilers for s1 young royals) Regulus would relate to Wilhelm, they both grew up as the “spare” but then when their older brothers left/died, they suddenly became the important one. They also both had to hide their queerness. Also, regulus would totally learn Swedish and become fluent in it. (Also, he always has captions on because he can’t hear it if the captions aren’t on. I’m totally not saying that because it’s how I watch stuff)

3. I fully believe that James would have read the heartstopper comics before the show came out, and Sirius would be a “heartstopper is cringe” girlie, until James forced him to watch it. Then he would be OBSESSED. I’m talking, reading all the comics, buying them, watching the show on repeat, starting a whole fan account, the whole lot. Also, he’d tease James about the fact that hes nick and regulus is Charlie.

4. Evan and barty would binge heartbreak high in one night, idk why they would like it so much, it just gives off their vibes. Bartys favourite character would be Harper and evans would be ca$h

5. Dorcas would LOVE the chilling adventures of Sabrina because like, it’s witchy and stuff, idk it just gives off her vibes, she would laugh about how wrong they were about witchcraft though. And gossip girl, I actually haven’t watched it so I don’t really know, but my friend said it kinda gave of dorcas vibes and I can see it so yah

6. Omg lily and Mary just give off Gilmore girl vibes. Mary would love Lorelei and lily would love sookie, like so much. They would both be like, edward Cullen level obsessed. And gossip girl, they’d watch that because dorcas put them onto it and they’d have weekly picnics to discuss it.

7. I feel like lily would just relate to Anne, like, I don’t really have a reason behind this one, lily just gives cottagecore girlie vibes

8. Pandora would watch the good place because it’s kinda like upbeat but also really dark and twisted, which is kinda like her. Like I see pandora as being really light and kinda loopy and stuff but she has really dark interests.

9. Pandora and regulus would so watch umbrella academy together, again, it’s kinda dark and a bit out there so obviously they’d both love it. Regulus would relate to viktor, because they both feel out of place in their families. Pandora would try to guess what’s gonna happen next and she’d be eerily right every time.

10. Peter and Sirius’s friendship is silly and I see it as childish in the best way possible, so they’d watch teen titans religiously. Sirius would LOVE starfire (idk why but I just think he would) and Peter would be obsessed with beast boy or robin.

11. Remus would watch shadow and bone for the six of crows parts. He wouldn’t be obsessed with the shadow and bone parts, but with six of crows? YES. He obviously would have read the books (the shadow and bone trilogy and the six of crows duology). He would relate so much to kaz, because they both feel like they aren’t deserving of love and that they shouldn’t love someone because it makes them vulnerable. Also, they both grew up kinda having to fend for themselves. Ok so derry girls, I think he’d just watch it for fun, it would be something he can watch to take his mind off things. I also think that Erin, Orla, Michelle and Clare would remind him of the marauders

12. Marlene would watch atypical for Casey, like Casey would be the reason she watched the show. And I also think she’d just watch kinda shitty shows just because she can. Like Kath and Kim (which is the best show ever made). She would love Kath and Sharon, just because they’re icons. That’s it really

13. James and regulus would watch the end of the f***ing world and I am not okay with this because James would want to watch something with his boyfriend, and even though he’s not as interested in the supernatural/dark sides of the shows, he sees how happy it makes regulus, and that makes it all worth it. Honestly, he’d spend the whole time looking at regulus

14. Regulus and Remus’ friendship gives me life, so naturally I have to have a show that they watch together, which is the queens gambit. Tbh I haven’t watched it, but I just feel like they would both like it.

15. I KNOW THIS IS A NEW ONE BUT I HAD TO ADD IT. Sirius would watch young royals so he could have something to talk about with regulus.

Ok that’s the end of my rambles, that was really great because none of my friends care about the marauders, so dumping my thoughts on random internet people is my next best option. Enjoy 😉.

Tv shows I think people from the marauders era would watch:

James and Sirius: H2o (and they’d fucking love very minute of it)

Regulus: Young Royals

Sirius and James (yes again, because I can): heartstopper

Evan and Barty: Heartbreak high (the new one)

Dorcas: the chilling adventures of Sabrina/gossip girl

Lily and Mary: Gilmore girls/ gossip girl (they’d talk about it with dorcas)

Lily: Anne with an E

Pandora: the good place

Pandora and regulus: umbrella academy

Peter and Sirius: teen titans go

Remus: shadow and bone (he’s obviously read the books first tho)/ derry girls

Marlene: atypical/sex education/ Kath and Kim

James and regulus: the end of the f***ing world/I am not ok with this

Regulus and Remus: the queens gambit

I HAVE REALLY DETAILED EXPLANATIONS TO ALL OF THESE BUT THEYRE REALLY LONG AND RAMBLY SO IM LEAVING THEM OUT

Marauders era on a road trip (james, Sirius and Marlene stole a school bus to make sure everyone was on the same thing)

Sirius and Remus: Sitting at the back making out

James: “WHO WANTS TO PLAY I SPY WITH ME? No? OK HOW ABOUT TWO TRUTHS AND A LIE?”

Evan: Asleep

Barty: drawing on evan

Dorcas: In charge of the music, has an amazing playlist lined up

Peter: Giving directions (really badly, but it’s fine)

Marlene: pulling faces/holding up random signs at cars on the road

Pandora: sitting very aesthetically with the window down, the wind like, blowing her hair perfectly and drawing BEAUTIFUL things because she’s a queen

Regulus: Reading with his noise cancelling headphones on but every now and then he looks up and rolls his eyes at James (who obviously swoons)

Lily: playing hand games with Mary (apple on a stick, chopsticks, bang bang shoot etc.)

Mary: playing hand games with lily, as well as having a very heated debate with Peter over the directions

You know, regulus, James, dorcas, Marlene, Barty, Evan, lily, Mary, Remus and Sirius would have all gotten sweaters today.

But they won’t. None of them will, because sadly, they all had a meeting with a bald man with no nose, one of his club members or a random veil.

Every day, every single day, I hate myself for coming into the the marauders fandom. And to whoever decided that Happy Xmas (war is over) with videos of the marauders would make a good tik tok, I hope you suffer every day with the thought of the people you have hurt

if jily + other marauders era characters weren't in the houses they are in:

james would be a cute little hufflepuff because hes loyal af, kind (to people who deserve it) and also he is an excellent cook (my hc)

lily evans is a ravenclaw, and there is no argument for her being slytherin. a) she would probably be murdered or tortured for being muggleborn, b) she THIRSTS for knowledge (and james potter) and is extremely creative and witty and self-aware. plus shes (in most fanfics i read) excellent at charms which is flitwicks class.

anyways if they werent the ultimate gryffindor head boy/girl couple, they would be the huffleclaw head boy/girl couple that everyone adored.

sirius: he is a gryffindor fight me on this

remus: ravenclaw

peter: hufflepuff EXCEPT towards the end hes a slytherin

marlene: slytherin

dorcas: she was ORIGINALLY a gryffindor but if not then she would be a ravenclaw

mary: hufflepuff

regulus: ravenclaw

evan: hufflepuff

barty: gryffindor

narcissa: hufflepuff

andromeda: gryffindor

bellatrix: ravenclaw

if the marauders were asian but specifically east and south east asian

the blacks: theyre so chinese coded idk but maybe korean

remus: malaysian. he handles spice like a fucking pro

lily: she is japanese and she is a kawaii type girl and shes fucking adorabld

marlene: white washed chinese or japanese

james: china but specifically guang zhou or hong kong cause he just gives cantonese vibes also hes very very very whitewashed

peter: singapore kiddo and therefore can speak like 5 languages/dialects

pandora: shes just korean skincare girly

evan: also korean but more nerd aesthetic yk

barty: wasian if he really has to be

dorcas: shes not asian in any universe imaginable ever

rita skeeter: same with her tbh

mary: whitewashed (but can still speak the language) i havent decided for her but i think vietnam kinda suits her

emmeline: shes already asian/wasian idc what anyone says

alice: shes white but shes very accepting of asian culture and is obsessed with kpop

frank: korean or (for some reason) thai

Marlene is constantly doodling and drawing. She's one of the most talented artists Hogwarts had ever seen (which is so unfair according to her friends because how is she sportsy and artsy??) and it drove the girls wiiild. Her converse always had doodled stars, her notebooks were full of sketchss, and her hands would always end up decorated with little drawings by the end of the day. But no one knew about the one sketchbook Marlene had that worked for her like a diary - that's where she drew her thoughts and tried to express her feelings. This is how her notebook progressively got filled with drawings of the Slytherin girl with the dark eyes. At first Malrnene's drawigs of Dorcas were rushed, angry, intense but after some time the lines got softer, and an adoration, a gentleness could be sensed in the way Marlene drew the curve of her neck, her earrings, her beautiful hair

Dorcas and Marlene both came out as lesbians around the same time. The result was that every sapphic at Hogwarts was having a FIELD TRIP. Ladies were fawning over them,writing love letters, sending gifts. Marlene and Dorcas because of their ridiculous rivalry (and sexual tension) with each other ended showing off whenever one of them got a confession or a conquest (yes, they were a little bit of a fuckgirls let them be). Both of them couldn't understand why this particular game of theirs annoyed them considerably more than the others, until at one party Marlene honest to God full on made out with a girl while locking eyes with Dorcas. THE SEXUAL TENSION COULD BE CUT WITH A KNIFE EVEN PETER WAS SWEATING AND HES ACE

Dorcas says, "That's pretty racist ngl" everytime something that she doesn't like happens and just watches the terror in people's eyes with the biggest grin. Marlene almost cries every time it happens. On the other hand Regulus has learned to adapt and just hits her with a "so you're transphobic now i guess?"

Dead boy detectives x the mauraders

I am mixing to of fav fandoms cause I can.

Sirius, James, and Charles who talk about starting a band all the time but never do it.

Regulus, Remus, Lily, and Edwin sit and read or talk about there partners.

Crystal and Marlene would be amazing together. The levels of sass through the roof.

Barty and Evan would be try to talk to the cat king so much thinking he is so cool. Might smoke together honestly.

Pandora, Niko, and Monty would be a trio I would like to see. Just the vibes there.

Peter and Monty are two that have sort of this opposite going parallel (I say like I know what that means) and I think that would be interesting. Also know I am think of astrology loving Peter and that slays.

Ester and Bellatrix would be in a competition. Not sure for what but they would.

One of my favorite stories I have for the mauraders era is where they are at a Ravenclaw party and it is insane.

Peter and Edgar are just making out in a bathroom the whole time, while Pandora, Evan and Xenophilius went up to smoke in one of the dorm rooms and hear a noise and find the two making out. So Pandora leaves but Xeno and Evan just go to another dorm, get high, and kiss. When Pandora walks down stairs Mary is at the bottom of them so those two of them for no reason, like they don't even know why they kissed, leading to Emmeline getting jealous and going up to Lily and asking her to kiss and Lily and she's like yeah sure so they kiss.

We also have James and Regulus not so secretly flirting with each other. Remus being mad at Sirius for some reason so he flirts with Barty for a bit but it doesn't matter cause Sirius is on the other side of the room doing shots with Marlene and Dorcas.

This is why Ravenclaw parties where all the all the houses are there are rare cause it gets to chaotic.

The marauders and co doing a hear me out cake

Marlene: So I am going to put down Effie Potter

James: What the fuck, that's my mom

Mary: Ooh nice one

Sirius: Well I'm going to put down one Mr. Potter

James: My dad too

Remus: Good one, now I got Monty

James: Twice!

Regulus: Now see these are all great options but I am going to add Fleamont Potter

Barty: You know what I am starting to see it

James: ...

James: Guys what the hell

Pandora: Well anyways, I brought Euphemia Potter

James: Never speak to me ever again, any of you

James: So, I have Lighting McQueen here

i like the idea of remus being friends with everyone and not knowing?? and he’s friends with more people than any of the other marauders bc james and sirius are really cliquey and peter just follows them around.

so he’s friends with most of the gryffindors- especially the older years because he sells drugs to them 👮‍♂️ remus lupin in the head of the hogwarts black market

like hes obviously besties with regulus (don’t tell sirius) so he’s friends with pandora by proxy. they’re a cute friend group who talk shit together.

and then he’s ’one of the girls’ and is constantly hanging around lily, mary, marlene and dorcas. they have a book club and talk shit about the marauders and their teachers

don’t forget the ravenclaws! mf spends most of the time in the library. there r bound to be some ravenclaws who frequent the library and got curious abt the nerd with all the scars. so bc of all these new ravenclaw friends, he absentmindedly founds a whole ass study group.

then all the younger years from all the houses join said group. alongside the older years from other houses that sit in so that when the younger years leave they can buy cigarettes off of him.

and don’t forget the teachers! do u really think he doesn’t have afternoon tea with madam pomfrey, even when it’s not a full moon?

i can imagine remus spending his day pissing about with the marauders in the morning, going to his study club after school, meeting up with the girls in the common room, heading out to have a chat with pomfrey, and then going back to the dorms to listen to music with the marauders while he conspires a plan on how to sneak out to the astronomy tower to meet up with regulus and pandora later.

bros a quadruple-timing friend whore

i love drawing marlene mckinnon bc she doubles as a self portrait

songs i think the marauders era characters would EAT THE FUCK UP!!

james potter

‘say yes’ by elliott smith

i feel like james doesn’t really listen to music that much, more so just pick out a few songs that sirius and remus like and just go with it. remus loves elliott smith (despite his more ‘grunge’ music taste) so he would play a lot of his songs when he’s alone or just chilling out.

james would hear this song and be like “UMMM THIS IS SO ME CORE” and he’d listen to it on repeat for WEEKS.

remus lupin

‘my iron lung’ by radiohead

this mother fucker is a radiohead stan. remus is the radiohead bf sirius is his blur gf.

he loves a little guitar riff and then absolutely nonsensical breakdowns in the middle of the chorus 👍

also i feel like he just relates to the teen angst vibe of it. he listens to it when he’s upset that he’s a queer werewolf from care home. so HIS ‘iron lung’ in that sense would be he queerness and his upbringing, or maybe even sirius at some points.

sirius black

‘beetlebum’ by blur

one thing abt sirius is that he only listens to brit-rock or 2000’s pop punk bangers with explicit sexual innuendos. they just hit!

he’s an early p!atd stan btw. soz.

and a deftones boy. cringe!

but he really likes blur!! he listens to it for hours at a time. he just LOVES the chorus soooo much. it’s a bit basic but he likes it.

lily evans

‘velvet ring’ by big thief

i feel like lily is a folk fan above all other genres of music. obviously she loves fleetwood mac, taylor swift, etc… but her loyalties lie with the cluttered, wordy and intimate lyricism of artists like big thief, clario and sidney gish.

lily listens to this specific song whenever she feel nostalgic or when she’s got growing pains. it kinda grounds her. she’s the type of person who gets so fixated on the past or what her futures gonna look like, so she channels those feelings into reflection instead. she finds a lot big thief’s songs do just that :)

marlene mckinnon

‘debris’ by lowertown

marlene loves indie girl music!! she loves messy vocals and melancholic chord progressions, so she lovesss lowertown.

this song is basically the verbalisation of how she feels other people would treat her if she finally opened up. she feels deeply attacked by the lyrics lol xx

mary mcdonald

‘this is what makes us girls’ by lana del rey

this mf loves lana del rey more than anything. she is a dark feminine born to die giant falsies dark pink french tips and ices mocha latte typa girlie.

this song just makes her feel so powerful and so connected to her friends!! she thinks it’s just so her. she also feels like her attractiveness is one of her best qualities (which isn’t true she’s literally the funniest and kindest girl at hogwarts) and one of her only strengths and she HATES FEELING THAT WAY… so when she listens to lana she’s like ‘mmm she’s so mother! she gets me!!!’

she knows she’s a pretty girl with a group of pretty girl friends and she loves it!!!!

regulus black

‘you’re on your own kid’ by taylor swift

ok regulus is not a tswizzle fan by any means.

but pandora likes her and forced him to listen to a few of her favourite songs. when this song came on he was like “… ok wtf 😧 she’s so me”

all of the lyrics just ATE in his mind. he relates to every lyric PAINFULLY SO.

pandora

‘whatever’ by elliott smith

pandora listens to literally every type of music ever.

she likes phoebe bridgers and found out about elliott smith though her, and heard this song and was like “elliott smith wrote this song about reggie and i xx”

they’re best friends! they are literally the bestest of friends. such a pure friendship.

all of them :)

‘spring’ by angel olsen

bro you’ve gotta listen to this song. it’s like evil crack.

marauders band au marauder band au marauders band au

i am so good at backgrounds 🥹🫶 /j

marlene mckinnon gives me early 2000’s taylor swift energy ! tell me u don’t see it.
