DNA Guarantee by Kodi Rhianna is Black Family coded
- more under the cut -
The first stanza gives me the vibes of Alphard, Andie, and Sirius deciding to leave and begging for their siblings to follow. The Black family drains everything unique about it's children and makes soilders, and those three didn't want to be. They tried for so long to change (beating a long dead horse) but being apart of the Black family is a life sentence.
The chorus is everyone. All of them are trapped in a cycle until they break it. "Never your baby, just a maybe," they never had kids to have kids. It was always for heirs. The Blood purity, so forth eeee
The middle stanza is Sirius and Regulus and Walburga.
It's between them and Walburga in the first part. Sirius and Regulus reminding Walburga of Alphard and herself - one trapped and lashing out and one desperately fleeing. Its also difficult because of how similar all three are - forced into positions, unhappy, lashing out. I would image that if they interacted as older, Sirius and Walburga still would have issues due to this. Even if she doesn't or didn't hit them with her hand, spells and words do it best.
It's between Regulus and Sirius in the second part. The dogs biting the bone is Sirius messing everything up with Remus and the others. "Daughter bites her words," Regulus not coming out as FmT for years due to fear. "Fight like wolves, then flee like birds," Whenever the brothers fight it's always vicious, pulling at old wounds and cruel - like their family. Then they both realize, fleeing before the other says something. "From the save pack but rivaling herds," the brothers come from the same family, but in the end have vastly different friends.
I also just imagine that when it doesn't get physical, the family does have screaming matches often. Cops would be called, the whole thing. Very early the kids learned they could use their words effectively against each other even if they couldn't against their parents. I imagine that while close, the boys and girls had a battle of shouts at least once a day (then sneak each other treats to make up for it.)
I could also imagine Sirius and Regulus trying to settle into the Potters and realizing how intertwined their family is in them. And also Reg and Sirius have to stomp to the back of the garden to have their arguments - they cannot not have them, because then they get waaaay worse.
“But I have seen the same. I know the shame in your defeat.”
But it’s Narcissa Black with Regulus Black. And Narcissa Malfoy with Draco Malfoy.
Literally all and any character from the Marauders era after they loss another person.
“Your mother wouldn’t approve of how my mother raised me” but it’s the black family to their lovers.
Regulus “please don’t say you love me” black.
Siurus “please don’t say you love me” black.
Bellatrix “please don’t say you love me” black.
Andromeda “please don’t say you love me” black.
Narcissa “please don’t say you love me” black.
Itty bitty waists are a very prominent feature in the house of black
Feel that thinking about writing something about them bc I find nothing about them
Hot take (everyone expected it from me)
I think more about the Black Sisters than the Black brothers
Literally the idea that Andromeda escaped!! SHE MADE IT!! Only to have her daughter killed by Bellatrix! Her own sister!! THAT GETS ME
Lucius Malfoy is a flamboyant bisexual twink obsessed with his wife, pass it on
Im that one girl who dont mess with the Black sisters
we all know and love the hc that sirius walked regulus down the isle however let me present to you narcissa walking him down (that way sirius could potentially be best man)
black family edits with Midwest Emo are my achilles heal 😔
Rosekiller are the kind of people to be besties with theire local takeout
(the tai takeout guy gave me 6 instead of 8 springrolls)
(i hate myself for using the word bestie)
Lucius, about a fight between Bellatrix and Severus: It scares me how many knives were involved.
Lily: There… weren’t any knives involved though?
Lucius: That’s what scares me.
*************************OR***********************
Narcissa, about a fight between Lily and Severus: It scares me how many knives were involved.
Regulus: There… weren’t any knives involved though?
Narcissa: That’s what scares me.
*The squad is over at Narcissa's house*
Lucius: Ohhhh, we each get our own oven?
Narcissa: ... N-No...
Narcissa, laughing: How many ovens do you think I have???
Lucius, motioning to her kitchen: Three, I thought!
Bellatrix: I see a-
Narcissa, motioning to one device: This is a microwave.
Lucius: Oh, well I-
Narcissa: Hey wait wait, actually- hang on- *fiddles with the buttons on the microwave*
Narcissa, amazed: Its got a bake setting!
Regulus: Ohoho, you learn something new every day!
Severus: Do we- Do we roshambo for who gets to pick first?
Narcissa: Now I've just discovered I have more ovens than I thought, we don't have to roshambo nothin!
Narcissa: I am a woman who owns four ovens...
Narcissa, louder and way too happy: I am a woman... who owns FOUR OVENS...
Narcissa: I didn't know I was so rich with ovens...
Lily, pointing to another appliance: Also the toaster oven!
Narcissa:
Lucius: Ohhh, toasty boy! Four- Five ovens!
Narcissa:
Narcissa, fucking ECSTATIC: I AM A WOMAN WHO OWNS FIVE OVENS
Head Canons for the Slytherins in a little band
I imagine narcissa on the drums, sev as the singer, Lucius as lead guitar, Bellatrix as rhythm guitar (and when it's not need she does the keyboard) and Regulus as base. Also lily is their manager.
🐍
They switch around if need.
🐍
The others sometime sing a song and several other does small parts, when that happens
🐍
Severus never play the drums, he doesn't like to play them and he's not that good at it
🐍
The girls and Severus write the songs while reg and Lucius give suggestions (like what it could or should be about)
🐍
The tend to write and sing about how they feel or things they experienced, a few songs they made just for fun like a joke a nice break from pouring their emotions out
🐍
The name of their band is 'death eaters' (does it sound better as 'the death eaters' or give suggestions)
🐍
If the song is about someone and don't want that person, they make sure the lyrics don't directly point that person out.though sometimes they don't care and decide to taunt that person in the song
🐍
Some songs just one member writes and will make sure the others like it before they completely finish it (the others ALWAYS like it)
🐍
They love each other like family and each of them have written a song for/about one another
🐍
Because Severus usually doesn't have an instrument Lucius likes making up dances for Severus to do
🐍
If sev is feeling extra he'll jump and dance on some of the tables, especially if the song is about someone, then he'll jump on that persons table and make sure to point that person out.
🐍
Their outfits sorta match and always has something representing Slytherin
🐍
Sev puts his hair up sometimes, he always has some in the front out so he still has a curtain of hair to hide behind
🐍
Narcissa and Bellatrix are usually the ones to sing along with sev
🐍
I'll post what I imagine their outfits looking like
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
Voldemort: *enjoying his time shaming Bellatrix and Narcissa that Nymphadora maried Remus*
Narcissa & Draco: *had the time of their lives in that wedding*
Harry: *knocks*
Kreacher: *open the door*
Harry:
Harry:
Harry: how long have you been here?
Kreacher:
Kreacher: since master told kreacher to take a break
