@@KazuhasWife69 sorry this was so long. some defining first: gay coding is giving a character gay traits that paints a character as gay to those in the know, historically this is done when unable to explicitly have a gay character wether censor or execs or just unwilling.

Then there comes him being a werewolf, which confirmed by J K Rowling lycanthropy is an analogy for HIV (oh boy is that a bad idea). Then comes the even worse idea of the second and only other named werewolf introduced, a pedophile who implied to had sexual assaulted Lupin as a child. Having lupin as gay only reinforces the connection hiv has with being gay but again has many issuse. Rowling has some questionable things in the books, Lupin-Tonks out of nowhere relatinships de-lgbt them both so "fixes" things she wrote. There quite a bit of subtext to that relationship too
are we just gonna gloss over the part when snape walks in on them and says they're "bickering like an old married couple" cause that sounds like snape sensed the big gay energy
Lupin/Tonks shippers would you stop the hate? Nobody says Remadora didn´t happen. Wolfstar could happen before. I kinda ship both but I way more prefer Wolfstar.
I’m yet to read the books (planning on as soon as school stops shoving books down my throat) but from just watching the films, Remus and Sirius acts like a real couple when on the other hand I wouldn’t have figured out Remus and Tonks were a thing until the second to last film, if I was being super observant. I only knew about it before that due to my friend telling me.....
plus, david thewlis initially played lupin as a "gay junkie" until he found out that lupin was gonna end up with tonks after which he turned the gayness down a notch. look it up. he really said that.
Remus is such an amazing character. Like he probably was devastated because he just got his friend back. He had to keep it together for Harry. Inside he’s probably crying just as much as Harry.
I have always shipped these guys. Can I just mention Snape's line: "Look at you two, bickering like OLD MARRIED COUPLE!!!" I mean I'm pretty sure it isn't in the book but I trust Alan Rickman OK.
Blossom Gam3r You probably haven’t heard of authorial intent or death of the author. Author intent is making decisions about the plot and subtexts of the books based off of what the author has said/written. Death of the author is people making their own decisions about interpreting the plot/subtext. There’s nothing wrong with using death of the author, frankly that’s the one I’m most comfortable using. Don’t be angry at people for interpreting subtext in their own way.
bless you for this comment, i am rewatching the 3rd movie and came here to get the answer WHY IN HELL did their reunion hug look so gay with Remus closing his eyes and nearly inhaling Sirius haha
JKR: I should have more LGBT+ representation in my books HP fandom: Wow, that sounds great! You mean like Seamus and Dean, Remus and Sirius, or Luna and Ginny, etc.? That would be really exciting! JKR: Good ideas, but you know what's better? HP fandom: What? JKR: *dUMblEdOrE*
There are characters who have the gay vibes like Sirius with Remus, Dean with Seamus but no, JK comes with the gay Dumbledore who is totally asexual in HP.
Haha gotta update that comment, she wants for G representation, maybe some L's or B's, but the Ts need to LEAVE. Fucking JK Rowling slowly but surely destroying her reputation so she can hate on people for existing.
And then that piece of wet wood doesn't even put it in her effin movie. I mean, sure there was the mirror, but like... (And piece of wet wood is my new favorite insult.)
HP fandom: Uhh ok that was unexpected and idk why you decided to come out with that after not mentioning it at all in the books and movies, but this is still good! Are we gonna see some follow up in the Fantastic Beast films? Like maybe with Grindlewald JKR: Pfft noPE HP fandom: What?? But you said-- JKR: I said noPE
they always are. I kept finding out when I would read books and listen to the audiobooks and some words kept changing like: how stupid do you think Americans are that they won't understand that "complex" word? c'mon.
I read the US American version “Sorcerer’s Stone” the rest were in original text. I’m glad. Because I got certain nuances that others asked me where in the text they were.
@@Cecilia-zm4dj - Book: Order of the Phoenix Page(s): 88-89 For context, it was when Sirius was arguing with Molly over whether Harry deserves to know what the Order has gathered about Voldemort at Grimmauld Place.
It makes sense too cause the Dursleys hate him for something he couldn’t control being and whenever he tried to talk about it they made him be quiet and had him go back to the closet.
Sirius : Moony i love you Remus: i love you too snuffles JK Rowling :Aww they are best friends LITERALY ANY OTHER CARACTER TO AGAIN LITERALY ANYONE : 'Sup bro Jk Rowling : OMG THEY ARE THE GAYEST GAYS I HAVE EVER SEEN
Fun fact: The director of The Prisoner Of Azkaban told David Thewlis (Remus) to act like a "gay junkie" when acting as Remus. Also what is UP with the awkwardly violent bro-hug in the POA movie?
niko kaiser Wow. This is the best thing in the history of this ship... That's awesome. Though honestly, OotP is way more gay than PoA... I mean, you know that bit where Sirius hugs Harry, and Remus is just casually leaning on the doorway? That is the most "Gay Uncles" bit ever.
If she had just kept quiet she would be credited as a massive LGBTQ ally. But people can’t seem to do that (I’m looking at you, CW. Castiel and Dean had the perfect romance)
Sirius is Gay. Remus is Bi. Sirius and Remus loved each other, and dated but once Sirius died and Remus got somewhat over his death, he stopped ignoring that fact that Tonks was madly in love with him. Y'all can love more than one person in a lifetime.
I always try to see love in them in post azkaban, but I can't, like there aren't enough reasons*... for me their love ended in 2W before death's potters (for all that thing of traitor)
Sirius: Gay Remus: Bi James: Uhhhh- Up for debate, I HC him to be Omnisexual though. (Omnisexual is when you are attracted to all genders, there is a slight difference from being Omni and Pan, Pan is being attracted to personality, which means they -can- love all genders, but Omni is when you are attracted to every gender.) Peter: not deserving of love Hotel: Trivago //it has been two years since I made this comment why are y’all still laughing 😭😭
Luckily I died trying to kill the soul of some man. Severus has found out I was gay just before I went to Dumbledore and I heard he got mindraped. I might have told Severus I loved him..
Now I want a scenario where Harry mentions his aunt and uncle "put him in the closet" and Remus and Sirius misunderstand and drop this huge, heartfelt speech about accepting and loving himself just as he is and how they'll always love him.
I see Sirius as gay and remus as bi also, JK isn't the best at LGBT representation, because it seems like she threw Dumbledore's gayness in as queerbaiting
Agreed, at this point it's honestly kinda hilarious how the fandom had so many possible gay ships that JKR could've just used if she really wanted to but she apparently rolled a 1 for representation and decided to queerbait it out with Dumbledore
It’s funny how a fanfic writer has better characterisation than Joanne. Actually it’s not funny because Joanne is a terrible writer specifically when it comes to characterisation
@Avery Scofield there's nothing wrong with being attracted to both genders, kiddo. Don't worry too much about figuring out how to label yourself, just feel comfortable with whatever it is you are into and have fun
I can see them being the gay uncles that get you a bracelet everytime you see them now you have a strange collection of jewelery. Yeah! That's Uncle Sirius and Uncle Remus!
I hate to say it but I think that JKR laid down the gay subtext deliberately to suggest a possible relationship but then changed her mind after Sirius died so that she could do the Teddy storyline - I heard her say once that she wanted to leave another orphan like Harry to show the awfulness of war. It wasn't until DH that she makes an overt point of mentioning the muggle girl posters on Sirius' wall.
Not to mention everyone plays with their wands all day and male wizards wear (dress) robes, which were (and still are to some degree) not considert "gender appropriate" by muggles.....
She was originally going to have Remus survive the war (after she decided to let Arthur live after the snakebite, she felt that Remus had to die instead), I wonder who the war orphan was in the original version
I'm extremely late BUT- I'm really surprised you didn't mention that sirius being able to transform into a dog along with lupin being a werewolf could be an indicator of something, since dogs and wolves are both canines. the stag and the rat are so different from those two and each other, but wolves and dogs are so closely related. could that have been on purpose? just something to think about☺💓🏳️🌈
Tonks' Patronus changes to a wolf in book 6 and Harry thinks she was in love with Sirius because it looks like his animagus form, so you're probably on to something there lol.
I remember that the rat was so that they could open the tree passage and I think that sirius became a dog so he could keep up with remus, no clue what the stag was about tho
Not to mention JK herself said that when your patronus’ are the same/similar, it means you’re soulmates. I’d bet galleons that if Remus weren’t a werewolf, his would be a dog too
Lily is a Doe, James a Stag. Snape’s a Doe too. = love/symbolism. Remus is a Werewolf, a Hound. Sirius is a big Dog, also a Hound = same thing. Love! Symbolism!
You forgot the part where remus and sirius they give harry a gift from both of them BECAUSE THEY'RE A COUPLE. Thank you for this. I've been arguing this is supported by the text for years.
Let’s not forget that Harry is the most OBLIVIOUS narrator ever, they could be full on snogging in front of Harry and he’d be like Harry: I’m so depressed, Ginny is dating Dean again
JK could have a nice diverse story but instead she decides to say Sirius, Harry, Draco or literally any character that could be gay are straight and tells us Dumbledore is gay even though she doesn’t show it literally anywhere and makes Nagini an Asian woman beecaausee? Like seriously Jo?
@@intergalacticbound I see no problem, neither with Nagini being asian nor her being a woman. I find it kind of really overthought that she later is Voldemort pet cause she felt alone and he is the only person she can talk to. Like wow! I wouldn't have gotten that idea and that capacity to think into the future. And about Dumbledore, I find it sad that his gay side wasn't shown in Harry Potter but now I'm waiting for real stuff in the Phantastic Beast series. There MUST be something gay in the movie, like there has already been but there must an open confession for sure! At least I really hope so, else way I'm going to be pissed xd
I've always been a reader but I only started the harry potter series recently and while reading Prisoner of Azkaban, I got some HUGE gay vibes from Remus and Serius
Mars oh god not Casting Moonshadows. I cried for weeks after that. I can’t bring myself to read it cause it’s so sad 😭 (But it’s so good though everyone must read it XD)
You know what's funny too? James was related to Sirius! So they were literal bros... kind of. So Harry was related to Sirius too! Aww! But it doesn't stop there. Harry is therefore also related to Ron! Isn't that - Oh. Wait. Nevermind.
Ok but Tonks is literally the female version of Sirius. She is a methamorphmagus and Sirius is an animagus, She has great hair and he has great hair, and they are literally related.
Sirius is definitely gay. I mean, he never was said to show any interest in girls, and never had a girlfriend. Remus, on the other hand, shows many signs of bisexuality (or, by extension, pansexuality). He definitely took a liking to Sirius, while he also seemed quite partial to Tonks. Demisexuality could be on the table as well, and he is quite reserved and got to know both Tonks and Sirius quite well. All in all, 10/10.
I know im late but when I first watched OOTP I screamed "they look like a gay couple" at the part when sirius hugged harry and lupin was standing in the doorway
Ah, I wish more characters would be confirmed as bisexual. It took me such an embarrassingly long time to come out as bi because almost all media I ingested in high school portrayed bi people as sluts, and they were otherwise non-existent. This being text would have helped me a lot in accepting my romantic attraction when I was younger. Maybe would have helped me avoid a toxic relationship with a guy because I thought I had to be with a guy, idk
AND I want to add that in the third book when Harry and Remus were talking about Sirius and Harry thought that Sirius would deserve a Dementor kiss , Remus said that he doesn't think that even Sirius who betrayed his friends would deserve something like this. But when he knew that Sirius was innocent and Peter was guilty and the one who betrayed Lily and James he wanted to help Sirius to kill Peter. So he thought that Sirius wouldn't deserve a Dementor kiss but he wanted to help Sirius killing Peter. It means all these years he hoped that Sirius was innocent and when he knew it he was so happy that his love didn't do anything bad and he wanted to kill Peter with him together. ❤❤❤
Honestly what mostly pisses me off about this whole thing, is that it implies people can’t have multiple lovers in their life. Like, why couldn’t they have been together at Hogwarts? And even after, but then ended things? Of course, Sirius was in prison for a great deal of time, which gave Remus an opportunity to move on. I love Tonks and Remus together, as I also love Remus and Sirius together. Most people don’t end up with their first love anyway, which makes it all the more interesting for me, as the (ugh) epilogue finishes with our main characters marrying the partners they had in school- which is unrealistic, and lazy writing, in my opinion 🤷♀️
@@siriusunkaymakbiras4287 Some people can. Also, Remus did not develop feelings for Tonks until after Sirius' passing. So even if you don't believe that you can love more than one person at a time (which polyromantics will disagree with), then your point still does not relate to Remus' love for Sirius and his love for Tonks.
If you haven’t already, give all the young dudes a read, it goes into Remus’ life and shows you the different relationships he and Sirius had with people and their relationship together
YO THE CENSORSHIP IS MORE CONVINCING THEN ANYTHING ELSE IN THIS VID AND I AM SHOOK BECAUSE EVERYTHING ELSE CAN BE EXPLAINED WITH THE STRONG FRIENDSHIP THEY HAD BUT WHY WOULD AMERICA CENSOR ANYTHING LIKE THE ONLY REASON THE WOULD DO THAT WOULD BE FOR THE GAY
As much as I hate to say it, I think Rowling is a coward. She often seems to mention things she had in the back stories of characters but didn't make at all apparent in the actual books, like Dumbledor being Gay, or denies things that seem to be in subtext based on what she thinks will make the stories appeal more or less to people. She knows that openly gay characters would cause a lot of people to oppose the story's suitability for children but also that members of the LGBT community are desperate for characters we can relate to so she tries to have the best of both worlds and let everyone think she is catering to them
J. K. Rowling said that Dumbledore's sexuality never came up because it was never relevant, and I can understand why Dumbledore would not have felt the need to discuss his sexual preferences with his students. She had complete backstories in her head for loads of characters that never made it into the book (i.e. Professor McGonnagall's) That said, I do hope an openly gay Dumbledore appears in the Fantastic Beasts sequels.
what i don't understand is her argument that apparently having openly LGBTQ+ characters would "cause a lot of people to oppose the story's suitability for children" when Rick Riordan does it with a lot of his books and they never stopped having children/teens as the target audience. she's grasping at straws to justify how she just doesn't want to show any representation for the LGBTQ+ community.
bangtan love bot i agree with your last sentence but then again I kinda agree with your first sentence too. Not that it’d be unsuitable for children but that some people think it would be. like I’ve read all of ricks Percy Jackson books and my parents haven’t got a clue that nico is gay- I just think that a lot of parents aren’t aware of it
Also, maybe Remus wasn’t rejecting Tonks for so long only because he was a werewolf, but also because he felt bad for having feelings for her so soon after his mate (*wink,wink) died.
I've always seen Sirius as gay and Remus as bisexual, and I've always believed that they were a couple. Yes, Remus ends up with Tonks in the end, but they didn't start dating until after Sirius died, and Remus was prepared to leave her (and their baby) behind just because of the werewolf stigma. Tonks definitely loved Remus, but I don't think Remus loved her in the same way. He was fascinated and impressed by her, and after Sirius died I think he used her as a way to cope with his loss, and I think he started dating her because he was afraid of being alone (again) So my theory is that Remus and Sirius started dating during their later years at Hogwarts, and then kind of broke up because of the mistrust and all that shit that happened during the war with Voldemort. But once they found out the truth and once they were reunited, they got back together (as you said, OotP is so gay #40linestare) and I firmly believe that if none of them had died, Harry's gay uncles would've lived out the rest of their days in a small cottage by the sea, happily ever after.
Well Pottermore says that when Remus met tonks his thoughts were “ he was first amused, then impressed, seriously smitten by the young witch. He had *never* fallen in love before.
Um I don't know I'm really starting to think Sirius is that one gay cousin of the family that all the puritans of the family hates And Remus is just a really fabulous Bisexual dude who ended up with Tonks in the end after getting over his first love since well...his first love is kinda ya know uh...dead...so...poor guy can't be with him anymore
let’s not forget how Harry takes Sirius and Lupin down memory lane, that scene in the book was like a grandchild finding a yearbook of their grandparents and the grandparents tell them all about their school life from back when they were younger Sirius and Lupin are those grandparents and Harry is the grandchild
What about the part where Snape says they are arguing like an old married couple. Snape ships Wolfstar and that's a fact. Also, Harry is so gay. He describes pretty much every boy as handsome.
ok, usually i don’t like when characters forced to be gay, BUT i have to agree with you - remus and sirius are gays (also, they are my favorite characters of all hp-books). it fits in so many levels! like remus get married only after sirius’ death. and the way tonks was upset after lupin refused to be with her in the first place - i think he confessed that sirius was not just a friend for him and he is pressed by grief by losing his lover and don’t want to be in any relation. and the way he was distressed after their marriage - before tonks get pregnant. it all fits 🤷🏻♀️
LOOK lupin never wanted to marry tonks (tonks is 100% queer too, probably bi) but with tonks mother being sirius's favourite cousin he asked tonks to be there for lupin incase something happens
21:01 "Lupin turned away from the archway as he spoke. It sounded as though every word was causing him pain." THAT WAS STRAIGHT UPON CUTTED FROM THE HUNGARIAN VERSION DJSKDHWK
they were definitely queer and DEFINITELY in love and i like to think they were high school sweethearts and after the prisoner of azkaban, when remus moved in with sirius (yeah i'm still not over that one detail) they continued their relationship where they left it off. what's clear is that they're boyfriends and the love of my life and should be protected at all costs.
Remus and Sirius dated since Hogwarts till Sirius death. Then Remus married Tonks (but It looked like something more platonic to me) Thats It. Thats the tea
PleaseGetOut OfMyLife The Remus and Tonks business seemed rushed. I mean, they had a kid just two years after Sirius died! Rebound? Forced non-canonical relationship? Choose your fighter.
I always thought that Lupin was gay and that’s why he was so hesitant to date Tonks, what really hit it home was when he and Sirius had that “it’s okay to date her” conversation (although it was mostly subtext) and the Bill-Fleur wedding
everyone in these comments is like "oh alex you're so hot"

harry definitely looks more devastated then remus, but still his face says it all and i ship wolfstar 100%

Blossom Gam3r You probably haven’t heard of authorial intent or death of the author. Author intent is making decisions about the plot and subtexts of the books based off of what the author has said/written. Death of the author is people making their own decisions about interpreting the plot/subtext. There’s nothing wrong with using death of the author, frankly that’s the one I’m most comfortable using. Don’t be angry at people for interpreting subtext in their own way.

JKR: I should have more LGBT+ representation in my books

JKR: Good ideas, but you know what's better?
HP fandom: What?
JKR: *dUMblEdOrE*
There are characters who have the gay vibes like Sirius with Remus, Dean with Seamus but no, JK comes with the gay Dumbledore who is totally asexual in HP.
Haha gotta update that comment, she wants for G representation, maybe some L's or B's, but the Ts need to LEAVE. Fucking JK Rowling slowly but surely destroying her reputation so she can hate on people for existing.

they always are. I kept finding out when I would read books and listen to the audiobooks and some words kept changing like: how stupid do you think Americans are that they won't understand that "complex" word? c'mon.
This is why i will complain to a book store if they only sold the american version.
The new illustrated versions are pretty much the same except for philosopher still being sorcerer
I read the US American version “Sorcerer’s Stone” the rest were in original text. I’m glad. Because I got certain nuances that others asked me where in the text they were.

@Avery Scofield there's nothing wrong with being attracted to both genders, kiddo. Don't worry too much about figuring out how to label yourself, just feel comfortable with whatever it is you are into and have fun
I can see them being the gay uncles that get you a bracelet everytime you see them now you have a strange collection of jewelery. Yeah! That's Uncle Sirius and Uncle Remus!
I hate to say it but I think that JKR laid down the gay subtext deliberately to suggest a possible relationship but then changed her mind after Sirius died so that she could do the Teddy storyline - I heard her say once that she wanted to leave another orphan like Harry to show the awfulness of war. It wasn't until DH that she makes an overt point of mentioning the muggle girl posters on Sirius' wall.
Not to mention everyone plays with their wands all day and male wizards wear (dress) robes, which were (and still are to some degree) not considert "gender appropriate" by muggles.....
She was originally going to have Remus survive the war (after she decided to let Arthur live after the snakebite, she felt that Remus had to die instead), I wonder who the war orphan was in the original version
This ship has become weirdly important to me recently. I've been reading ATYD and crying whenever I think about how things end for them.

I'm extremely late BUT-
I'm really surprised you didn't mention that sirius being able to transform into a dog along with lupin being a werewolf could be an indicator of something, since dogs and wolves are both canines. the stag and the rat are so different from those two and each other, but wolves and dogs are so closely related. could that have been on purpose? just something to think about☺💓🏳️🌈
Tonks' Patronus changes to a wolf in book 6 and Harry thinks she was in love with Sirius because it looks like his animagus form, so you're probably on to something there lol.
Also the dog they used in the movie is a WOLF- hound
I remember that the rat was so that they could open the tree passage and I think that sirius became a dog so he could keep up with remus, no clue what the stag was about tho
Not to mention JK herself said that when your patronus’ are the same/similar, it means you’re soulmates. I’d bet galleons that if Remus weren’t a werewolf, his would be a dog too
I mean.... you don't get to choose what you turn into. You just turn into a random animal. Your theory? Likely

Sirius is definitely gay. I mean, he never was said to show any interest in girls, and never had a girlfriend.
Remus, on the other hand, shows many signs of bisexuality (or, by extension, pansexuality). He definitely took a liking to Sirius, while he also seemed quite partial to Tonks. Demisexuality could be on the table as well, and he is quite reserved and got to know both Tonks and Sirius quite well.

short answer: yes
long answer: yes but it’s 26 minutes this time
Ah, I wish more characters would be confirmed as bisexual. It took me such an embarrassingly long time to come out as bi because almost all media I ingested in high school portrayed bi people as sluts, and they were otherwise non-existent. This being text would have helped me a lot in accepting my romantic attraction when I was younger. Maybe would have helped me avoid a toxic relationship with a guy because I thought I had to be with a guy, idk
AND I want to add that in the third book when Harry and Remus were talking about Sirius and Harry thought that Sirius would deserve a Dementor kiss , Remus said that he doesn't think that even Sirius who betrayed his friends would deserve something like this. But when he knew that Sirius was innocent and Peter was guilty and the one who betrayed Lily and James he wanted to help Sirius to kill Peter. So he thought that Sirius wouldn't deserve a Dementor kiss but he wanted to help Sirius killing Peter. It means all these years he hoped that Sirius was innocent and when he knew it he was so happy that his love didn't do anything bad and he wanted to kill Peter with him together. ❤❤❤
The fact that like all the fans thought they were gay and together so JK Rowling was like "uh uhhh he died and the other dude married a girl"
Excuse me? I hate Wolfstar and I much prefer lupin and Tonks ending up together at the end of the end.
@@beenazakir8337 I said this 3 years ago and am now indifferent to this ship you're good
Honestly what mostly pisses me off about this whole thing, is that it implies people can’t have multiple lovers in their life. Like, why couldn’t they have been together at Hogwarts? And even after, but then ended things? Of course, Sirius was in prison for a great deal of time, which gave Remus an opportunity to move on.
I love Tonks and Remus together, as I also love Remus and Sirius together. Most people don’t end up with their first love anyway, which makes it all the more interesting for me, as the (ugh) epilogue finishes with our main characters marrying the partners they had in school- which is unrealistic, and lazy writing, in my opinion 🤷♀️
You are right and a person can have more than one lover but cannot love more than one person at the same time.
@@siriusunkaymakbiras4287 Some people can. Also, Remus did not develop feelings for Tonks until after Sirius' passing. So even if you don't believe that you can love more than one person at a time (which polyromantics will disagree with), then your point still does not relate to Remus' love for Sirius and his love for Tonks.
@@siriusunkaymakbiras4287 i would like to kindly disagree because people can very well like more than one person at the same time

YO THE CENSORSHIP IS MORE CONVINCING THEN ANYTHING ELSE IN THIS VID AND I AM SHOOK BECAUSE EVERYTHING ELSE CAN BE EXPLAINED WITH THE STRONG FRIENDSHIP THEY HAD BUT WHY WOULD AMERICA CENSOR ANYTHING LIKE THE ONLY REASON THE WOULD DO THAT WOULD BE FOR THE GAY
As much as I hate to say it, I think Rowling is a coward. She often seems to mention things she had in the back stories of characters but didn't make at all apparent in the actual books, like Dumbledor being Gay, or denies things that seem to be in subtext based on what she thinks will make the stories appeal more or less to people. She knows that openly gay characters would cause a lot of people to oppose the story's suitability for children but also that members of the LGBT community are desperate for characters we can relate to so she tries to have the best of both worlds and let everyone think she is catering to them
J. K. Rowling said that Dumbledore's sexuality never came up because it was never relevant, and I can understand why Dumbledore would not have felt the need to discuss his sexual preferences with his students. She had complete backstories in her head for loads of characters that never made it into the book (i.e. Professor McGonnagall's) That said, I do hope an openly gay Dumbledore appears in the Fantastic Beasts sequels.
Me Me She's said it won't, which is why people are upset with her. It's never been more relevant but she still won't show it.
what i don't understand is her argument that apparently having openly LGBTQ+ characters would "cause a lot of people to oppose the story's suitability for children" when Rick Riordan does it with a lot of his books and they never stopped having children/teens as the target audience. she's grasping at straws to justify how she just doesn't want to show any representation for the LGBTQ+ community.
bangtan love bot i agree with your last sentence but then again I kinda agree with your first sentence too. Not that it’d be unsuitable for children but that some people think it would be. like I’ve read all of ricks Percy Jackson books and my parents haven’t got a clue that nico is gay- I just think that a lot of parents aren’t aware of it
I dont hate gays but the community is garbo
Also, maybe Remus wasn’t rejecting Tonks for so long only because he was a werewolf, but also because he felt bad for having feelings for her so soon after his mate (*wink,wink) died.
Can I just say that your ironic editing is just wonderful
I've always seen Sirius as gay and Remus as bisexual, and I've always believed that they were a couple. Yes, Remus ends up with Tonks in the end, but they didn't start dating until after Sirius died, and Remus was prepared to leave her (and their baby) behind just because of the werewolf stigma. Tonks definitely loved Remus, but I don't think Remus loved her in the same way. He was fascinated and impressed by her, and after Sirius died I think he used her as a way to cope with his loss, and I think he started dating her because he was afraid of being alone (again) So my theory is that Remus and Sirius started dating during their later years at Hogwarts, and then kind of broke up because of the mistrust and all that shit that happened during the war with Voldemort. But once they found out the truth and once they were reunited, they got back together (as you said, OotP is so gay #40linestare) and I firmly believe that if none of them had died, Harry's gay uncles would've lived out the rest of their days in a small cottage by the sea, happily ever after.
WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG
Wolfstar never happened get that into your heads
Ok my last reply was a bit harsh but I have point
Nymphadora Tonks/Lupin which is?
Well Pottermore says that when Remus met tonks his thoughts were “ he was first amused, then impressed, seriously smitten by the young witch. He had *never* fallen in love before.
Nymphadora Tonks/Lupin Pottermore ain't cannon though
Um
I don't know
I'm really starting to think Sirius is that one gay cousin of the family that all the puritans of the family hates
And Remus is just a really fabulous Bisexual dude who ended up with Tonks in the end after getting over his first love since well...his first love is kinda ya know uh...dead...so...poor guy can't be with him anymore

ok, usually i don’t like when characters forced to be gay, BUT i have to agree with you - remus and sirius are gays (also, they are my favorite characters of all hp-books). it fits in so many levels! like remus get married only after sirius’ death. and the way tonks was upset after lupin refused to be with her in the first place - i think he confessed that sirius was not just a friend for him and he is pressed by grief by losing his lover and don’t want to be in any relation. and the way he was distressed after their marriage - before tonks get pregnant. it all fits 🤷🏻♀️
LOOK
lupin never wanted to marry tonks (tonks is 100% queer too, probably bi) but with tonks mother being sirius's favourite cousin he asked tonks to be there for lupin incase something happens
21:01
"Lupin turned away from the archway as he spoke. It sounded as
though every word was causing him pain."
THAT WAS STRAIGHT UPON CUTTED FROM THE HUNGARIAN VERSION DJSKDHWK
Nooooooooooooo
they were definitely queer and DEFINITELY in love and i like to think they were high school sweethearts and after the prisoner of azkaban, when remus moved in with sirius (yeah i'm still not over that one detail) they continued their relationship where they left it off. what's clear is that they're boyfriends and the love of my life and should be protected at all costs.
Side note but I hope they at least touch upon Dumbledore's gayness with Grindelwald in the next Fantastic Beasts movie
gefelice same
*claps* _I waaaaannnnt gaaaaaaaayyyyy Dumbledorrrrrrreeee_
I will be siriusly dissapointed if they don't. Brother and I agreed we actually are hyped about that moment in the movies the most..
YESSSS
knowing JKR they probably will not :(
Aretheygay: Are they g-

That’s exactly what I said when I saw one for Lams and Boyf Riends
Me:
Sirius and Remus are the gay uncles we never had but always wanted
For me, Remus is bi and Sirius is completely gay. Try to change my mind
Laura Álvarez Garces i Think the same
I can't argue with facts 🤷♂️
Remus x Sirius, I kinda ship them ig- butttt they ain’t canon
They’re both Bicons and Tonks is obvs Pan.
Really? Is that way he had poster of women in bikinis in his bedroom at his Number Twelve Grimmald Place?
Remus and Sirius dated since Hogwarts till Sirius death. Then Remus married Tonks (but It looked like something more platonic to me)
Thats It. Thats the tea
PleaseGetOut OfMyLife
The Remus and Tonks business seemed rushed. I mean, they had a kid just two years after Sirius died! Rebound? Forced non-canonical relationship? Choose your fighter.
I always thought that Lupin was gay and that’s why he was so hesitant to date Tonks, what really hit it home was when he and Sirius had that “it’s okay to date her” conversation (although it was mostly subtext) and the Bill-Fleur wedding
It was SO rushed. And kinda random too.
@@someoneunknown7655 bruh he was hesitant to date her because he was scared he would HURT HER
@@ihavelemonade5640 bro it was only rushed in the movies because the movies literally made every canon ship look like fucking trash- read the books
I was reading a wolfstar fanfic literally minutes ago
TH-cam knows me too well
ikr!
Which one?
I am still recovering from Casting moonshadows
Oh, My Larry OML Ivana Honestly, I don’t remember. But The Marauders series by Pengiwen on Wattpad is really good and I recommend it to anyone ^^
Oh, My Larry OML Ivana i just reread casting moonshadows a few days ago and i’m still a hot mess. i need more wolfstar LFs to recover, any recs?
@@enasshuaib1982 No, but you can search for Miscef managersnon yt, they are doing a lots of great videos :)
Also Remus and Sirius give Harry a joint gift in OOTP- a very coupley thing to do.
omf that seamus and dean segment made my day
I’m laughing so hard at the pre-2007 Emo sensation Snape and the G note
That’s 11/10 humor right here
Everyone who recignized the note deserves an award xD
"About a boy wizatd who goes to a wizarding school"
