It Pisses Me Off So Much When People Defend Sirius In Debates By Saying, “But He Grew Up! Unlike Snape,

ONE DAY

Just to be raw and honest here's a truth about Book Sirius and James , they were rich classist bastards the only reason they are seen as good people is because they are praised by EXTREMELY biased people who are telling an orphaned child about his parents. The book is from Harry's point of view, so as long as he is stating an opinion and not a visual fact , it is a biased opinion.

James Potter was Draco Malfoy of the marauders era , he was rich , he was perverted , he treated people lower than him like shit and yes he treated Lily like shit too. And no, the only people who said James matured up were the two most biased best friends of James Potter telling an orphan child about his father. The only difference between Draco and James is that the Potters were fighting alongside Dumbledore and raised a spoiled bastard brat . The Malfoy were fighting alongside Voldemort and raised a spoiled bastard brat.

Sirius black was canonically not a purist only because he hated his parents. He was raised in an abusive household where he was always jealous of his younger brother. There is no proof that Regulas ever did anything against him, and the only thing he ever stated was that Regulas was considered a much better son.

Sirius Black is repulsive and always took his anger out on random people hexing and torturing them.

No, there is no canon mention of a death eaters Slytherin gang that the marauders used to fight against only Sirius' very much biased words. The people Sirius does refer to are Lucius, Avery , Mulciber, and Snape mainly . Lucius is 5 years older than Snape and even though the age group of Avery and the rest are not mentioned, it is only canon that Lily mentions them as Slytherins, there is no canon gang possible given their age groups and even if there was, Snape has got to be the young boy they were grooming.

There is no mention of Snape ever attacking the marauders until after James molested him, and that is also a biased opinion about Snape fighting back to James and Sirius.

He may have been a very loyal friend to James, but literally, everyone, including Remus, was ready to believe he betrayed the Potters. Do you see the kind of reputation he had for everyone ?

Also, Sirius black tried to murder Snape using Remus as a murder weapon, and there's not a single person that ever mentions the fact that Sirius wanted the person he always tormented to be mauled by a werewolf and he chose his own friend to be the one comiting the murder.

kiss…. KISS

THAT WAS SUCH AN INSANE SHOT, WHY IS NOBODY TALKING ABOUT THAT?!

meeee

people don't talk enough about how fucking funny it is that bruce can sub in his kids as batman when he's too busy. like can you imagine it from the league's perspective? imagine you have this really mysterious, geniusly scary guy that you know next to nothing about, never cracks a smile and yet always comes out on top, and one day he shows up to a league meeting and there's just something... off. about him.

you can't pin it down because he's literally acting exactly the same as usual and there's no reason to think there's anything wrong, but maybe he shifted in his seat one to many times, or he looked just a tad bit too bored during green lantern's case review, but something's just... odd. so you quietly ask superman after the meeting if anything's up with the bat bcs you know those two are closer and also clark can hear heartbeats so if something's wrong surely he'll pick it up? and without hesitation he leans over to you and mumbles 'yeah batman was busy, that's his 17 yr old son. he's a crime lord and kills people sometimes though so we're not allowed to let him into the weapons department.' and then walks away like it's normal.

like the whiplash the league must go through every time they realise that no, this is not their fearless dark and brooding leader, this is in fact one of his dipshit kids being forced to sub in bcs the real batman broke an ankle, is incredible.

wonder woman: so that's my proposed plan, what are your thoughts batman?

batman: hn. i think that- *voice raising two octaves* oh shit hold on my phones buzzing

the league:

batman, answering the phone and immediately dropping the Bat Posture™: what do you mean- aw come on little wing that's not fair! but- no, NO DON'T YOU DARE TELL ALFRED I'LL BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF YOU- IM SORRY OK I'LL BUY YOU MORE- *catches sight of the league watching him, baffled* *stiffens* ok listen i promise to replace them but i gotta go, please show me mercy iloveyoubye *hangs up*

the league:

batman:

batman: *coughs awkwardly*

superman: *sighs*

batman, to superman: ...red hood found out i ate his chocolate pretzels-

superman, shaking his head: just... just stop.

the flash: so this isn't batman either, is it?

wonder woman: if this one's also a criminal im losing my mind.

superman, tiredly: no no, this one isn't a criminal. this one's actually a cop.

batman: *sinks down in his seat* b's gonna kill me

green lantern, mystified: where does he keep GETTING you all from!?

'batman' dick, who made a pact with jason to Always Fuck With Bruce Whenever The Opportunity Arises: batman is a whore.

they think they've finally sussed out all 2 of batman's kids and then one day during a meeting 'batman' ends up on a 30 minute rant about different hacking methods this tech villain could be using that results in him half way through a sentence breaking off to say '-oh uncle clark could you pass me that pen- thanks, anyway so-' and then five minutes after that when the league have all been exchanging incredulous looks he finally freezes and is like. SHIT.

wonder woman: you're different from the other two, aren't you?

batman: maybe i am maybe i'm not, you can't prove it.

wonder woman:

green lantern: so like, are you new or have you just managed to avoid sub duty up until now?

superman, coughing: actually, this is this ones ninth occasion of replacing batman. you've just never realised before.

the league:

batman: yeah actually the other two are kinda mad i lasted longer than them...

the flash: how the fuck does he keep getting kids with the exact same build as him!??!?

'batman' tim, spent 20 minutes padding the suit out so he would look the part, still mad that bruce keeps palming WE work off on him: oh he forces us to take steroids for it.

the league, concerned:

superman, pinching the bridge of his nose: now come on red robin-

batman, fully tearing up and looking distraught: PLEASE uncle clark, it HURTS, you can't keep COVERING FOR HIM!

superman, frantically to the league: this one lies.

bonus

the league, squinting at batman:

the league: ...

superman: *head in his hands, too disappointed to do anything*

the league: *silently exchanging looks, wondering if anybody's brave enough to say anything*

duke as batman, fully aware this is fucking stupid but jason and tim fell on the floor laughing when dick came up with the idea and frankly, he wanted to see if anybody would have to guts to call him out: so, are we all ready to start the meeting?

Kevin when he becomes an amalgamation of Bens guilt and paranoia

Ben take ur pills god!!!!

You know what I can't get over about the angst the Marauders fandom has for The Prank?

None of it is to do with the fucking victim

It's all about Sirius and Remus and their "fractured" relationship and Sirius' "guilt" and Remus being "angry" or "guilty"

But it's never about the actual fucking victim

It's never about the victim who got tricked and nearly killed. The victim who was silenced by the adults around him. The victim whose own best friend didn't even believe his version of events.

Severus Snape is the biggest victim of the Prank. Out of all the people with any right for angst, he's got the biggest right. For goodness's sake, his abusers didn't even regret what they nearly did, James just was aware the consequences would be nasty for him and his friends. And I don't think even Remus truly cared enough either to truly feel bad about it.

But nobody ever discusses that.
