I just wanna say. There's something deeply poetic to me about how Nigel thinks about the Templar knights. They were, to him, the epitome of greatness and something to look up to. Something he seemed to wish he could be. But the crusaders (and thus the Templars) ultimately lost, there were like 10 crusades and they didn't win a single one. And Nigel absolutely has to know that, not just from how obsessed with it he is but it's a religious school for crying out loud. And also just common info.
Nigel wanted to be a person who partook, though not directly, in a battle he knew he wouldn't win. He wanted to ultimately die, alongside so many others, for what would ultimately be nothing. They protected people as they traveled, that's really all the Templar knights did. He saw himself as a protector in some way. Dying in the name of a god that didn't save them.
No clue if this actually makes sense I'm very high. Just food for thought.
drarry. 273 words. this is unequivocally the stupidest thing I’ve ever written.
After the war, rumour had it Draco Malfoy disappeared. Puffed up and away in a cloud of smoke because he was cursed by Voldemort.
Rumour then had it that he ran far, far away.
Rumour also had it that he was completing a potions mastery somewhere exotic, and that one day he’d return home.
The one thing rumour didn’t have was a timeframe. So naturally, Harry was quite surprised to attend his 3pm appointment and come face to face with Draco Malfoy.
“Err. What did you say her name was again?”
“Coffee, Potter. Please do keep up.”
“Because the scales on her head look like coffee granules and you think they’re multiplying?”
“Well, yes. But there’s more. She’s been more tired than usual. And she’s not been eating too much. All in all, rather concerning.”
Harry poked around at the speckled snake coiled around Draco’s hand. A forked tongue gently lapped at his fingertip and was that a wink?
He cast his usual diagnostic charms which all pinged a gorgeous, normal green.
“I can’t see anything unusual, Malfoy. I’ll give you a standard vitality potion and check back in next week.”
Draco baulked. “There’s nothing wrong? At all? Are you sure?”
Harry gave him an affirmative nod and Coffee a gentle scritch under the chin. “I’ll see you both next week. For a check up.”
Draco was gracious enough to thank Harry for his time on the way out.
Though the more Harry thought about it, he was pretty sure the parting hiss from the reptile translated roughly into something like:
Foolssss. 10 yearssss apart and all he talkssss about issss you.
I'm having trouble thinking of where to go in the fic I've posted, and in hopes of being slightly productive with my time, have returned to an unfinished Au. I've gotten stuck on one part though, which isn't too big of a deal, but I'd like some input. If they were forced to stay in a room with only one bed, do yall think Alex would let Nigel take the bed and sleep on the floor, or would he make Nigel sleep on the floor? I'm kinda torn bc I feel like he'd think he deserves the bed more, but I also think he'd have a bit of a soft spot for Nigel and wouldn't want him on the floor
pansy: okay, draco, we’ve been at this for hours. i know you can do it. just say it slowly, okay?
draco: okay.
pansy: now repeat after me
pansy: will you
draco: will you
pansy: go out
draco: go out
pansy: with me
draco: with me
pansy: harry
draco: harry
pansy: will you go out with me harry
draco: choke on a snitch and die, potter
pansy: DRACO NO!
I find it mildly hilarious that Alex's first words after hearing condolences from Nigel is "fuck off freak"
"If you use em dash in your works, it makes them look AI generated. No real human uses em dash."
Imaging thinking actual human writers are Not Real because they use... professional writing in their works.
Imagine thinking millions of people who have been using em dash way before AI becomes a thing are all robots.
OK but Draco getting visibly annoyed every time he hears someone say that Harry is the Heir of Slytherin is so relatable because which among us hasn’t had that reaction when we hear people wildly mischaracterizing one of our blorbos?
What the FUCK. What the FUCK.
reblog if you believe fanfics are as valid as books that were published and sold by authors who write as their main careers. I'm trying to prove a point
One more update for today, I decided on a title quicker than expected and was able to post it! It's a short first chapter, shorter than I thought tbh, but it's up now! "Interconnected" by 0lith3gh0st
I've started writing a (possible) fic for like minds because it's taken over nearly my entire mind, and I've read nearly all of the fics on ao3 by now. This is what I've got at the moment, i can't decide if i should post it. I've also never actually posted anything on ao3 before, which doesn't help
What do yall think i should do?
Can you make a poll for the headcanons-
a) transmasc Mike
b) transmasc Will
c) neither/see results
I am conducting a research LOL.
(to anyone who sees the poll, pls reblog it as i want majority opinions)
oh, wow, interesting poll idea. (also, ty for my first ever poll rq :o)
Update: I've written a bit more, and I think it's a decent amount for a first chapter, but I'm having some difficulty thinking of a title for it to post, so it'll be a little while until I'm able to actually post it on ao3. I'll keep giving updates as I go. However, the updates may be few and far between, I'm great at procrastinating and forgetting about projects, and I haven't actually written anything seriously in about 5 years

Found this graphic and i really appreciate having options for activism that aren't going to protests.
I really hope the byler kiss happens in episode 6 or at least before Vol 2. Maybe im just too impatient but still!!! Ep 7 could also work but i just hope its not the final episode. THE SLOW BURNING HAS BEEN SLOW BURNING FOR ALMOST A DECADE!!!

not all ships are For wanting them to be in a happy healthy relationship together. sometimes shipping two characters means you want them to be erotically obsessed with each other and become entwined in a mutually toxic love affair for a few months and then horrifically break each other's hearts and never speak again. sometimes you want them to be codependent best friends with enough repression to explode a submarine who only make out/have sex when they're at their worst. sometimes you want them to pine after each other for years, never say anything, and then die. sometimes you want them to kill each other. this, too, is shipping
We need to put Trump's name on this.
I notice everything. I just don't say anything.
like minds shitpost (6/6)
Now more than ever we need to make Tumblr unmarketable, do NOT invite the government into this space.
Did I love this book? Yes. 100%. Do I remember anything about it? Absolutely not.
gracefully avoiding people and gatherings that don’t align with my peace while manifesting more books to read, more cups of coffee, more kindness and care for myself in the coming days.
i have so much heart warming love for you, it’s melting me
Don't be afraid to be "too much." Call me 5 times a day because you wanna hear my voice or something came up and you wanna tell me immediately. Text me 12 times in a row when I don't answer fast enough. Leave me cute texts when you can't sleep. Hold my hand, everywhere. Sit really close to me on the couch. Keep your hand on my thigh. Always have a part of you touching a part of me. Tell me you love me every hour. I don't care I want to be smothered in love, holy fuck life is too short to hold back.
Video of a russian glide bomb hitting the "Epicenter" home improvement shopping mall in Kharkiv city on May 25, 2024.
14 people were killed, 7 are considered to be missing
This is 8-year-old Mykhailo, yesterday his father didn't return from the "Epicenter", now the boy's DNA samples are being taken to help identify his father's body fragments.
Not a day goes by in which russia does not bring us pain and devastation simply because we exist.
