Fandom, I love you. I'm also still easily amused, I guess.
First, apparently people who do not ship Remus and Sirius are fools. LOL. LOLOLOLOLOL.
I wrote an essay on this, don't you know. Just for occasions like this.
My favorite part is that the reasons the post assumes I must think Sirius and Remus were never a couple aren't really the reasons I think Sirius and Remus aren't a couple.
Plus, it quite simply ignores the whole canon vs. Word of God distinction, which is pretty relevant. If I wanted to write a story in which Dumbledore had a wife and five children and lead a straight cis life, it could be completely canon-compliant. Just saying!

I'm getting into this interesting relationship with tumblr in which I find a tumblr I like, I read EVERYTHING posted in it and then I stick it into current my RSS feed. (This eats directly into my sleeping time.) Because I'm not making an account so I can have ANOTHER thing to have to check up on and follow in my life. Plus, tumblr being what it is, a lot of people I'm interested in repost each other anyway.
But I'm having a good time finding some HP stuff, which is a nice build-up for Pottermore besides letting me express other fandoms besides Torchwood. And the Notes Passed by Marauders tumblr is AWESOME. It actually completely overturns my previously held theory that tumblr was rubbish for fic. Because it's clearly fic, and it fits tumblr oh so well. One day I'll post my epic form vs. function of fanfiction on the internet musings. (Remember, the medium contributes a great deal to the message.)
And if you're curious how I handle it, considering my views on Remus/Sirius...listen. I don't care. If I dropped all Remus/Sirius stuff, I would lose out on some of the most brilliant HP fic out there. I can read it if I disagree with it, and still even enjoy it. I just see it as somewhat AU and a bit OOC. I'm an adult, I can handle it.
