There could be a story about a haunted bridge in Smuts. Legend has it that if you cross the bridge at a certain time, like midnight, you'll see a ghostly figure in the water below. It might be that this story is popular because bridges are often associated with mystery and the unknown in ghost lore, and the idea of a spirit lurking in the water makes it even more spooky.
I'm not very familiar with specific Smuts, Saskatchewan ghost stories. But generally, in Saskatchewan, there could be tales of haunted old houses or abandoned places. Maybe in Smuts there were stories of apparitions seen near an old barn at night, with locals claiming to see a strange figure that vanishes when approached.
They are likely to be horrified. James, for example, would probably be extremely angry that his friend had to endure such a thing. He might immediately vow to protect Sirius from any further harm. Remus, being more empathetic, would be there to comfort Sirius and offer his support in a more quiet and understanding way. Peter, though not as strong - willed as the others, would still be shocked and follow the lead of James and Remus in trying to make Sirius feel better.
Well, it could be some new students who are very much like the original Marauders in terms of their mischievous nature and loyalty to their friends. Maybe a Gryffindor with a great sense of adventure, a Hufflepuff who is unexpectedly brave and loves to get into fun, a Ravenclaw with a brilliant mind for coming up with pranks, and a Slytherin who has a soft spot for his new group of friends.
I think 'The Marauders' Map' fanfic is also great. It has an interesting plot that often includes adventures based on the Marauders using their map. It shows their mischievous side while also dealing with the underlying darkness of the wizarding world at that time, like the threat of Voldemort rising.
Yes, they might. Fanfiction can be a great source of entertainment and alternative storylines. Marauders, being characters full of curiosity, could potentially be interested in exploring different takes on their own adventures or the wizarding world in general through fanfiction.
Well, 'Marauders' is purely fictional. It was crafted by the imagination of the writers, not inspired by any actual happenings. The story and characters were made up for entertainment purposes.
The interactions might start with a lot of questions. Fred would be curious about the Marauders' time, and they would be interested in his more recent Hogwarts experiences. For example, Fred could ask about how they managed to create the Marauder's Map, and the Marauders could ask about the Weasley twins' joke shop ideas.
