WAIT I HAVE A CARROWS THOUGHT.
You know how you said the Carrows' greatest wish is money? what if the carrows were part of the sacred 28, but seen as one of the lesser family due to their lack of renown and wealth. they don't even have more than 2 properties so why would they be seen as important?
they join voldemort in order to create connections to better pureblood families - voldemort doesn't recognise their lineage and they are laughed at. they have a desperate thirst to prove themselves, and the twins cling onto eachother because their family is so low they can't attract anybody else.
the carrows are born in the dirt and they will die in the dirt - even after helping to commandeer hogwarts they are shoved into lowly teaching positions of the worst subjects, because they are simply not worth anything else.
@jewishregulus it is such a beautiful thing to see an anon being perfectly correct...
i agree wholeheartedly! the idea of the carrows being a dirt-poor and disgraced family line (but still of pure, sacred blood) is fundamental to how i see them. you're so correct in commenting on how this outsider status drives the twins closer together.
to add on: i believe alecto blames their mother for "dooming" the twins before they were even born. alecto is an angry & desperate girl raised in the lowest poverty, but brought up on fairytale stories of her noble bloodline and pureblood birthright. she was raised in a small fisherman's shack in hokkaido. all she has is a brother.
i want to see this vengeful outsider (born from dirt and squalor!) both fascinated and disgusted by pureblood england. alecto bites her tongue bloody the first time she is fitted for a silk gown. she is clawing for everything she believes she is owed, and no-one will ever see her this way. she has more grit than any softhanded pureblood heir or daughter: she disdains barty, regulus, pandora. she is dragging amycus along with her at any cost.
i picture the carrow twins sharing a room in marvolo manor, a habit from their bygone days sleeping in a threadbare cot together as children. they lay so close they share the same breath.

you still crave wine, but the taste doesnt satisfy you as much as it used to. you still crave summer, but you mean summer, one hundred years ago.

ok ok so we all know luke skywalker ends up making his gay little jedi academy daycare school temple thing and i imagine he ends up with quite the list of ppl attending bc its Luke Skywalker and also force sensitives would flock to bro but then this begs the question of who tf is taking care of all them kids???? its not luke! hes very smart and very strong but i think him and his strange/ dangerous tatooine upbringing would accidently send those children to death. how was he meant to know that the bears in the forest werent friendly? hes never seen a bear before! and so on and so forth. so then whos making sure every one is alive and feeding the kids three square meals? it cant JUST be ahsoka. she'd go crazy from trying to wrangle 20 force sensitive kids and luke. hm..... maybe chewie helps? idk. give me your thoughts plz. and dont say mr din djarin madalorian bc he would be just as bad.

This horrific government don't respect research, natural human empathy or basic common sense, only their own pakeha legal system. Of course they want to get rid of the one thing giving māori any power within it.

Are you telling me that the elder guardian of the echidna tribe would choose an incompetent white man to be the successor to his tribe? Don't bullshit me. Say sike rn. AND HE'S A COP ?! AND HIS SISTER IS A COP ?! AND HIS DAD IS BRITISH ?!? I feel like this would go against a lot of what the echidna stand for.
Also, Wade's mom pronouncing Knuckles with a ch and Wade not learning how to say the name of Knuckles tribe leader really rubbed me the wrong way. Giving very much, micro aggression.

"How are the blues?"
"A pain in my ass, every single day. No wonder Sarge took that grudge to his grave."
"If anything happens, just call me."
"We have been missing an inept medic around here."
"I know my way around a body, thank you very much!"
Sometimes memories pass down in the form of a rookie medic-in-training and the neurotic leader of a box canyon boot camp.
