Hunt Challenge: Choose Your Own Marauder (& Co) (Suggested by saturdaylicious)
You guys liked the people that were casted to play the Marauders? I didn't. :p So to make this week a bit more original we're going to pretend we're running the casting at Warner Bros and we'll come up with our own version of James Potter, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, Peter Pettigrew, Lily Evans and Severus Snape. Make your choice, it can be any actor/actress you want, even other sorts of famous celebrities, young or old, in character or out of character, you name it.
I will however ask that along with your submission you state which Marauder you're iconing.

Text Challenge: Fall To Pieces by Velvet Revolver
It's been a long year
Since you've been gone
I've been alone here
I've grown old
I fall to pieces, I'm falling
Fell to pieces and I'm still falling
Every time I'm falling down
All alone I fall to pieces
I keep a journal of memories
I'm feeling lonely, I can't breathe
I fall to pieces, I'm falling
Fell to pieces and I'm still falling
All the years I've tried
With more to go
Will the memories die
I'm waiting
Will I find you
Can I find you
We're falling down
I'm falling
