Evil Giggles.
Summary: Daisy and Uma really enjoy teasing their boys.
Pairing: Harry/Uma/Gil/Original female character
Warnings: not really anything. Implied smut at the end but it’s all off screen.
This thing is purely self indulgent and terrible but here it is anyway.
****
They were doing it on purpose. Harry and Gil both knew that the girls were trying to get them riled up. But damnit it was working!!
Both girls had been gone when they woke up, though neither boy is sure how they managed to escape the middle of the bed without waking either of them. They could hear giggling when they got to the chip shop and when they followed the melodic sounds back to the kitchen they found their girls. They could tell that Uma saw them from the spark of mischief in her eyes as she whispered something to Daisy who responded by lifting her captain onto the counter and kissing her deeply. Both boys blushed at the position they had found them in, a bit shocked that Daisy was strong enough to do that. Harry loudly cleared his throat to get their attention. There was that giggle again before Daisy turned to face them. “ You two finally woke up, huh?” She said with a smirk, “ Good mornin’”
Then she turned back to Uma, gently brushing a thumb over the captain’s lips to remove the traces of her own lipstick, before helping her off of the counter and leading her out of the room. Daisy’s usual spot between the boys is left empty at breakfast as she sits across the table with Uma this morning, occasionally letting the older girl feed her a spoonful of food. When it’s time to get to work the girls finally cross to their side of the table, Uma standing behind Gil and Daisy behind Harry. They tilt the chin of their respective boy back to look up at them before giving them a chaste peck on the lips. When the boys go to kiss the opposite girl they find their heads turned toward each other instead and that same sinister little pair of giggles echoes in their ears.
Daisy, who is always tactile with the boys, always seeking pressure, focuses that energy on Uma instead. Harry and Gil are both aware of what they’re doing and as gorgeous as they are when unable to keep their hands off each other, they’re also incredibly frustrating. All day they tease them. Daisy keeps letting Gil get close to her before twirling out of his grasp at the last second. Every time Harry reaches for Uma she gives him a task to do across the room from her.
At midafternoon break neither boy can keep still. Gil’s leg bounces unconsciously, missing the weight of one of the girls on his lap and Harry taps the side of his hook against his lips, where he usually has one of the girl’s’ hands. Uma sits on her seashell throne, Daisy in her lap. Harry growls in frustration, seeing both girls eyes on them. He thinks he can counteract their play, pulling Gil into a forceful kiss. Gil kisses him back with the same pent up energy and it’s clear he’s thinking the same thing. When they pull back the girls have matching smirks. They’re playing right into their hands.
“ What’s my name sweetheart?” Gil hears Uma say and the reverence in Daisy’s voice as she replies, “ Uma,” slow and shuddery has him squeezing his legs together in search of friction.
By nightfall, both boys are fuming. “ Are you two coming,” Uma calls behind her as she leads Daisy back to her cabin. Harry and Gil hurry after them. Right when they reach the door Harry tosses Uma over his shoulder, and Gil grabs Daisy by the hip, spinning her through the door and pressing her against the wall. Harry kicks the door to and tosses Uma onto the bed. He bends down, crashing his lips against her hungrily. Gil’s hands move from Daisy’s hips, one pinning her hands above her head and the other gripping her ass. Daisy can feel from where his hips are pressed against her just how she’s been effecting him all day. Uma finds Harry in the same state. There’s that same giggle that’s been eating at the boys all day, this time right against their lips and they both groan obscenely at the sound.
“ If the two of you don’t want those clothes torn, you had best be getting out of them.” Harry warns, as he kicks off his boots.
The next day both girls wear high collars and pout around all day when Harry and Gil decide they need a taste of their own medicine.

Hi :) just wanted to check what characters from marvel and descendants that you write for?
OFC great question, romantically I prefer writing male x male, so that would be
MARVEL: Steve rogers, Bucky Barnes, Loki, Thor, Tony Stark, Clint Barton, Peter Parker, Bruce Banner, and then any other males you want to ask for I can lyk if I do them, if they aren't listed
DESCENDENTS: Harry Hook, Gil, Carlos, Jay, Ben, Hades and again any others you have an idea for you are welcome to ask :)
With female romance it'll depended on the story idea you have, so please don't be afraid to ask we can always work out an alternative if the original idea doesn't work out
Platonic wise tho, anyone and gender is welcome!
I hope this answers your question!! If you have anymore I'd be happy to answer <3 stay safe my gooberss

Answer the Questions and Tag 5 Fanfic Authors
Tagged by @kitkatt0430 and @softboydepot - Thank you both for the tag :D
1. How did you get into writing fanfiction?
So I was about 13 years old, I was scrolling through my brand new One Direction tumblr, username "its-a-1d-world", soon to become "curly-and-boobear-stylinson", a harrowing username that genuinely makes me shiver like someone just walked over my grave. Like I'm sure this means nothing to someone who wasn't in the fandom AND an extreme larrie but let me tell you. Imagine the most intensely cringe superwholock url you could have. It's on that level
And I remember seeing what we would soon come to very derisively refer to as a "harry het fic" on my dash. So like, in 1D fandom, you had your standard self-insert Y/N fics, you had the queer RPF where you were shipping the boys with each other, and then you had the "het fics", which is where someone would make up a female character for one of the boys (usually Harry bc that man had and still has an insane chokehold on teenage girls everywhere) to date. If anyone has had the misfortune to read and/or watch After by Anna Todd... that type of deal
ANYWAYS I was totally unaware of fanfic as a concept, which is quite funny because as a little baby writer I'd been writing extremely derivative pseudo-fanfic for quite a few years by that point, like stories inspired by Young Dracula or Narnia or whatever without really knowing what it was. But this Harry het fic floated across my dash and a little switch went in my brain because I was like WAIT. I COULD BE WRITING STORIES ABOUT THE BOYS?? Like this was so exciting to me because writing is like probably my biggest eternal special interest and One Direction was my like, most intense special interest at the time, so I was like WAIT. I CAN COMBINE THESE THINGS. And also PEOPLE WILL READ THEM AND COMMENT ON THEM and I was sooo convinced I was god's gift to writing at the time so I was like well OBVIOUSLY everyone will read MY fics and I'll get super fandom famous instantly.
So I wrote an incredibly terrible Harry het one shot with an original character and literally got crickets. Nobody read it. Very embarrassing. I think I wrote a handful of these and nobody wanted to know, which is fair enough because I'm sure they were very bad. But THEN I was like okay fine, well everyone is obsessed with Larry, including me (though I very much liked it in a "bromance" way at the time, so I'll write a Larry fic instead. This is Louis and Harry for the uninitiated. It was the biggest fandom ship. We shipped all and every configuration of the boys but Larry and Ziam were the hard hitters. I think I wrote a few different one shots for various pairings but then I did my first Larry multi-chapter
ANYHOO the Larry fic was a big hit, I got all the outpouring of compliments and attention that my enormous thirteen-year-old head was convinced I deserved and that was kind of it really lmao. I was hooked. When I tell you I'd update my fics MULTIPLE TIMES A DAY because I was writing so fast and so obsessively, like god idk what the fuck was going on in my head but it was the greatest high I have ever experienced in my life. I also got incredibly deeply involved in the conspiracy theory about Louis and Harry's secret gay relationship and spent the next five years of my life tinhatting obsessively but that's a whole other story
2. How many fandoms have you written in?
In terms of what I've posted to AO3, only a handful—as mentioned, I started off in the One Direction fandom, I've written for The Flash and Legends, and dabbled in Doctor Who. In terms of fandoms I've written little bits for but never shared... so many lmao, the list (as far as I can recall) includes the following:
Batwoman, Supergirl, The Bold Type, The Devil Wears Prada, Once Upon a Time, Supernatural, Torchwood, Twilight, X-Men, and bizarrely, The Witcher, apparently??? I have ZERO memory of that, but it's in my fanfic folder. No idea what that was about
3. How many years have you been writing fanfiction?
I think I started in 2011/early 2012, so upward of a decade at this point... eesh.
4. Do you read or write more fanfiction?
Definitely write. I do want to read more fic, but I have a hard time choosing what to read and I am very bad at using AO3's search functions to find what I want.
5. What is one way you’ve improved as a writer?
I've finally started finishing shit!! Big moment for me lmao
6. What’s the weirdest topic you researched for a writing project?
I read an entire book on public defenders for a fic where Barry becomes a public defender instead of a CSI. I own a copy of a book called Forensics for Dummies which I'm slowly working my way through for fic reasons... I feel like none of these are that weird lmao
7. What’s your favourite type of comment to receive on your work?
Who doesn't love the mega long comments pulling out random lines the reader liked to yell about them. I sometimes get so excited reading these comments that I lose sleep over it lmao i love them so much
8. What’s the most fringe trope/topic you write about?
Lmaoo this is a very odd one but I once wrote a Larry Stylinson fic where Harry was Slenderman and he was haunting Louis, and either Zayn or Liam was like a Van Helsing type who was trying to hunt Slenderman!Harry down and kill him. Or maybe it was Nick Grimshaw, the at the time host of the BBC1 radio breakfast show. He was the go-to fandom villain at the time
I never finished it but that was a cool time, someone in the fandom actually composed an instrumental piano piece inspired by Slenderman!Harry which is up there with the coolest things that have ever happened to me
In general I don't know if I necessarily go that fringe. I feel like it's somewhat obvious I have a bit of a thing for femdom, and also like. Coldwest/coldwestallen in general lmao, I guess that's fringe-ish
9. What is the hardest type of story for you to write?
Funnily enough probably pwp. I feel like smut is generally considered to be just an easy fun time but I feel like my line-editing process is not conducive to smut writing thing because I write the first draft in a haze of feral horny energy and then edit and revise it over and over to the point where I no longer find it sexy at all and am unable to tell whether it's even still hot or if I've totally killed the vibe in my quest to find the most poetic way of describing the way people fuck nasty. It's very frustrating ngl
10. What is the easiest type?
None of them. This is such a cop-out but everything I write is hard because I'm an insane perfectionist and everything HAS to be beautifully crafted so at this point everything is hard. But ngl I find multichapters easiest to draft in some ways just cos I can kinda cling to the high of "ooh a new idea" whilst also contributing to the same project because the "new ideas" are just new chapters, if that makes sense? It's fitting them all together that's the hard part lmao
11. Where do you do your writing? What platform? When?
I use a combination of Microsoft Word, Scrivener, and a notes app on my phone called Penzu, which is where I scribble down all the random snippets and ideas and bits and bobs that come to me during the day. The bulk of my drafting and editing is done in Word and I basically only use Scrivener for its notecard function where you can move scenes around really easily, and then I transfer everything back into Word because of Tracked Changes. Does Scrivener have that? Probably. Scrivener has everything
12. What is something you’ve been too nervous/intimidated to write, but would love to write one day?
Honestly it's never really a case of "too nervous/intimidated" because I genuinely have never encountered an idea where I was like "hmm idk if I can pull it off", I have extreme faith in my own capabilities to an almost delusional level lmao, it's always just "I do not have time". But I do have this extremely long Coldwestallen fic that's inspired by Hades and Persephone, with Barry as Persephone, Len as Hades, and Iris as a soooort of Demeter figure which i know is weird because Demeter is Persephone's mother, but whatever, she more embodies the familial connection of the whole team rather than being an actual blood relative if that makes sense
So the concept is basically Barry as Persephone spending half his time with Len and the Rogues in the criminal underworld (I thought I was so clever for that one lmao) and the rest with Team Flash, and then the lines blur and it becomes coldwestallen-y eventually, but it's soooo long and basically split into four novels that I have written between 25 and 50k for each. It's gonna take me literal YEARS to tackle this thing so I've kinda put it on hold for now but I miss it so much
13. What made you choose your username?
So I wrote a joke in a fic that I genuinely have no idea whether I even posted it or not, it might have been in Aftermath. But basically Barry's suit gets blown up and he gets photographed literally streaking through the city totally nude (you can't see anything bc he's moving too fast but you can tell he ain't wearing any clothes lmao) and there's a newspaper headline that's like "THE FLASHER???" Let me tell you I was very annoyed the other day when I learned they already made that joke on Supergirl
And then I just added "cold" for Len lmao

The two weeks at the Potter’s passed by in the blink of an eye for everyone except Sirius. Now that he had realised the true extent of his feelings his relationship with Daisy now felt more cumbersome, his brain scrutinising everything they did. Every word, every look, every touch. Did she like him back? Were they just friends? With other girls, he seemed to know what they wanted or how they felt about him. With other girls, he hadn’t had to do much work and if he were honest with himself he hadn’t put much effort in to keep them on the hook. But Daisy was different. He wanted to make her happy, to make her smile. He was more careful, scared to do anything that might make her not like him. And he wanted her to like him, badly.
If James had noticed anything to do with his behaviour he hadn’t mentioned it. After snapping at him the first night he had backed off and though Sirius could tell he was longing to talk to him he hadn’t give him chance to.
Since James was going to be Gryffindor Team Captain now they had spent every day out on the Quidditch pitch strategizing for the next few games once term started. Even Daisy had relented to joining their sessions, on a broom, though she defaulted to being referee rather than play. The only time they spent off the pitch was when they’d gone to Diagon Alley for the day to get their new school supplies, topping the trip off by spending the afternoon in Fortescue’s Ice Cream shop with Alice. And on their last night before they headed down to London to catch the train they’d had a party on the roof, just the five of them, some beers and a small bonfire.
Due to all of their baggage this time the Potters decided that it was best to floo down to King’s Cross rather than drive and Daisy had barely touched down on platform nine and Ÿ before Lily was upon her, ensnaring her in a hug as she said, ‘oh my god I’ve missed you! Home has been so boring! You should’ve warned me it was so dull I could’ve gone back to Marlene’s or something. I was lucky I could go to work-’ ‘Jesus Lil are you getting your revenge by smothering me,’ Daisy asked pulling out of the hug Lily had engulfed her in. ‘Sorry,’ Lily said, meekly, ‘just excited to see you.’ ‘I’m excited to see you too but at least let me breathe,’ Daisy ribbed, Lily rolled her eyes.
By now the boys had come through the network, appearing beside Daisy in rapid succession. Daisy braced herself for hostility but it never came. In fact she smiled at the boys, her summer of getting to know Sirius and by default the others, seemingly having softened her as she said, ‘hi boys.’ ‘Lil,’ Sirius nodded. James looked flummoxed, scrambling to reply as he daren’t miss the opportunity to speak to the red head, though all he could manage to say was, ‘hi Lily.’ Lily said nothing but nodded curtly at him though her look of neutrality disappeared as Remus appeared from behind them, a smile on his face as he said, ‘hey Lil, did you get my last letter?’ ‘Arrived this morning,’ she beamed as he moved past the group, following her as she headed towards the train, babbling about whatever book they were both reading. James watched agog. ‘Well, looks like Moony’s having more luck with Lily than you eh Prongs?’ Peter chuckled as he followed their path though he was knocked sideways for a moment as James shoved him before following where Lily and Remus were headed. Sirius and Daisy watched them go.
After a moment Daisy seemed to realise they hadn’t followed on and grabbed her trolley ready to head in the same direction, looking at Sirius whose eyes were on the train, as she said, ‘ready?’ ‘What? Oh yeah,’ he said, grabbing his own trolley as she set off, trying to ignore the way his mouth had gone suddenly dry just watching her. She didn’t notice. They’d had a late night and in the rush to get everyone out of the house she’d got changed in a flash. Her hair was all over the place from where she’d brushed it but not put it up and her green eyes had slight bags underneath from lack of sleep. And yet she still looked agonisingly pretty to him.
As they neared the train door, ready to leave their trolleys with the conductor to sort the larger luggage, he forced himself to stop staring, climbing onto the train first so he wouldn’t give in. When they found the boys they were already in a compartment, stuffing their carry-on bags up over head racks. Sirius shrugged off his back pack and threw it on the seat but before he could sit down Daisy tapped him on the shoulder.
‘Can you put my stuff up there for me? I’m just gonna go find Lil,’ she asked, handing him a backpack and a vanity case which he took dutifully. ‘She’s in the next compartment down,’ Remus said looking up from the bag he was rooting through to explain, ‘Marlene and Alice were already there so that’s why we stopped here.’ ‘Thanks, Moony,’ Daisy smiled, before heading out of the compartment, sliding the door closed quietly behind her. Sirius watched as she disappeared before he turned to place her stuff up over head making sure it was secure before he took a seat next to Peter, who was already counting his change for the trolley lady. James however wasn’t distracted. In fact he was looking squarely at the black-haired boy across from him his arms folded across his chest as he watched Sirius, who was now stuffing his jacket into his bag. Sirius didn’t look up at first, too busy trying to corral the hefty leather jacket into the bag in a manner that left the rest of his things accessible. Remus however picked up on it immediately, placing his own bag by his feet as he eyed the pair of them.
As Sirius finished up, he looked up and met James’ stern gaze. He knew what the boy was probably going to ask but he feigned ignorance anyway as he asked, ‘what?’ ‘Don’t what me,’ James said like a disappointed parent, ‘spill.’ ‘What are you talking about?’ Sirius asked, his charade continuing. ‘I’ve given you two weeks. Two whole weeks to mull over whatever it is you’re hiding but now I want to know,’ James said firmly. ‘Prongs,’ Sirius sighed. ‘What’s this?’ Peter said his eyes wide as his interest was piqued. Remus too looked on with curiosity. ‘Sirius has been upset about something since he got to mine,’ James said. ‘Is it your parents?’ Peter asked. ‘No, no it’s not that though I know that’s been bothering him,’ James answered as though the older boy wasn’t in the room and couldn’t speak for himself. ‘I’m fine,’ Sirius protested. ‘You have seemed off mate,’ Remus chipped in not wavering as Sirius stared him down. ‘So go on,’ James said, ‘It’s nothing,’ Sirius said, rolling his eyes. But James’ gaze never wavered, the pressure feeling heavier now all eyes were on him. Sirius sighed and relented, ‘okay maybe you’re right.’ ‘So what is it?’ Remus asked. ‘I,’ he sighed, realising that there was no turning back. If he didn’t tell them James would only carry on badgering him and if he did it in front of her she might start to get suspicious. So, in an effort to be brave he said, ‘I sorta like Daisy. Like, really like her.’ ‘About time you realised,’ Remus chuckled. ‘Wait you know?’ Sirius said agog at the smirk on Remus’ scarred face. ‘Well, I figured,’ Remus shrugged. ‘Prongs?’ Sirius said, his eyes leaving the sandy haired boy to see if this was news to anyone else. James seemed only half shocked. ‘Well I thought it was something to do with Daisy but I wasn’t hundred percent on what it was,’ he admitted. ‘Well I had no idea,’ Peter said earnestly. ‘That’s no surprise,’ Remus ribbed earning a chuckle from the cabin.
When the laughter died down all eyes fell on Sirius as James said, ‘so what do you think you’re going to do?’ ‘What do you mean?’ Sirius asked confused. ‘He means you’re hardly a novice in situations like this,’ Remus smirked. ‘Yeah when are you going to ask her out?’ Peter agreed. ‘I don’t know if I am,’ Sirius said truthfully. ‘Why not?’ James asked, confused. ‘Because she’s Daisy,’ Sirius said as if it was obvious. ‘And?’ Remus asked. ‘And she’s part of us now,’ he said, unsure how they hadn’t all realised why he would be reluctant to do so, ‘I wouldn’t want to jeopardise her being part of this group or lose her as a friend if it all went to pot.’ ‘Why would that happen?’ James said. ‘It might,’ Sirius reasoned, ‘besides I don’t even know if she likes me. And what if she doesn’t and I ask her out and then everything feels weird? I just think I’m better off leaving it.’ ‘Well when you put it like that I can see your point,’ James said. ‘Yeah Prongs is right,’ Peter said.
‘I think you’re wrong,’ Remus said seriously. ‘Moony,’ Sirius sighed. All eyes fell on Remus but he didn’t concede instead he looked at Sirius whose face had fallen into a frown as doubts were cast over his reasoning.
‘Because what if you’re wrong?’ Remus argued, ‘what if you both like each other?’ ‘We don’t know that,’ Sirius said, ignoring the flutter inside him at the idea of it. ‘You never know unless you ask her,’ Remus countered. ‘Rem, Sirius is right,’ James said, ‘I mean what if they get together and it all goes wrong?’ ‘Then they get over it,’ Remus said. ‘And if it’s too hard?’ Sirius asked, ‘do you want to have to pick between us?’ ‘He’s got a point,’ Peter said, ‘I don’t want to lose either of them.’ ‘You’re all focused on it going wrong,’ Remus said rolling his eyes. ‘Because it might,’ Sirius grunted. ‘But you two could be really happy,’ Remus said, ‘look if you don’t want to ask her out then it’s your choice but I’m not going to pretend like it doesn’t make sense for you two to be together.’ ‘Moony-’ Sirius said, ready to break into a tirade of how none of it made sense. Of how there wasn’t even proof she liked him as more than a friend let alone for them to spend the rest of their lives together as Remus made it sound, yet before he could the door slid open, Daisy appearing in the doorway. Everyone shifted awkwardly making her face fall in confusion, ‘what have I missed?’

“Touchdown!” Fred called out as a slight bump indicated that they hit the ground.
Ava grumbled bitterly upon the rude wake-up, but sat up to rub her sleepy eyes. She saw that Fred had lowered the car next to the garage in their small yard, and Harry looked out for the first time at the house.
Ron had always told her that It looked as though it had once been a large stone pigpen, but extra rooms had been added here and there until it was several stories high and so crooked it looked as though it were held up by magic (which, it probably was). Four or five chimneys were perched on top of the red roof. A lopsided sign stuck in the ground near the entrance read, THE BURROW.
Around the front door lay the jumble of rubber boots, that no one ever bothered to pick up, and a very rusty cauldron. Several fat brown chickens were pecking their way around the yard, and Ava knew that her mum had to of let them out, which wasn’t a good sign.
“It’s not much,” said Ron, sheepishly.
“It’s wonderful,” said Harry happily, making Ava smile tiredly.
They got out of the car, Ava immediately climbing George’s body like a jungle gym in order to rest on his back. She had no energy to walk upstairs and he didn’t seem to mind, he simply hooked his hands under her knees to stabilise her weight.
“Now, we’ll go upstairs really quietly,” said Fred, “and wait for Mum to call us for breakfast. Then, Ron, you come bounding downstairs going, ‘Mum, look who turned up in the night!’ and she’ll be all pleased to see Harry and no one need ever know we flew the car.”
“Right,” said Ron. “Come on, Harry, I sleep at the — at the top —” Ron had gone a nasty greenish colour, his eyes fixed on the house.
The other three wheeled around, while Ava just hid her face in George’s neck. She didn’t have to look up to know that their mum was probably marching across the yard toward them. Ava could hear the chickens scattering.
“Ah,” Fred whimpered. “Oh, dear,” gasped George.
Avalon finally looked up to see their mum coming to a halt in front of them, her hands on her hips, staring from one guilty face to the next. She was wearing a flowered apron with a wand sticking out of the pocket. “So,” she said.
“It was all Ava’s idea! She insisted that we go rescue Harry from the muggles. Right, Ava?” Fred claimed, pointing to the sleepy girl.
“It was my idea. Hi, mummy.” Ava yawned out, giving a small wave that softened their mum’s stern glare.
“Morning, Mum,” said George, in what he clearly thought was a jaunty, winning voice.
“Have you any idea how worried I’ve been?” Their mum reprimanded, in a deadly whisper.
“Sorry, Mum, but see, we had to —” All three Ava’s brothers were taller than their mum was, but they cowered as her rage broke over them. “Beds empty! No note! Car gone — could have crashed — out of my mind with worry — did you care? — Your sister could have gotten hurt — never, as long as I’ve lived — you wait until your father gets home, we never had trouble like this from Bill or Charlie or Percy —”
“Perfect Percy,” muttered Fred, sourly. “YOU COULD DO WITH TAKING A LEAF OUT OF PERCY’S BOOK!” Their mother yelled, prodding a finger in Fred’s chest, making Ava flinch but George drew circles on her knew to bring her comfort. “You could have died, you could have been seen, you could have lost your father his job —” It seemed to go on for hours.
Their mum had shouted herself hoarse before she turned on Harry, who backed away. “I’m very pleased to see you, Harry, dear,” she said, much more friendly. “Come in and have some breakfast.” She turned and walked back into the house and Harry, after a nervous glance at Ron, who nodded encouragingly, followed her.
The kitchen was small and rather cramped, as per usual. There was a scrubbed wooden table and chairs in the middle, and Harry sat down on the edge of his seat, looking around. He must have never been in a wizard house before, Ava thought to herself.
The clock on the wall opposite him had only one hand and no numbers at all. Written around the edge were things like Time to make tea, Time to feed the chickens, and You’re late. Books were stacked three deep on the mantelpiece, books with titles like Charm Your Own Cheese, Enchantment in Baking, and One Minute Feasts — It’s Magic!
Avalon could hear her mum’s radio, which had been next to the sink, announce that coming up was “Witching Hour, with the popular singing sorceress, Celestina Warbeck.” She almost smiled because it was one of her favourite songs.
Ava watched her mum clattering around, cooking breakfast a little haphazardly, throwing dirty looks at her sons as she threw sausages into the frying pan. Every now and then she muttered things like “don’t know what you were thinking of,” and “never would have believed it.” “I don’t blame you, dear,” she assured Harry, tipping eight or nine sausages onto his plate. “Arthur and I have been worried about you, too. Just last night we were saying we’d come and get you ourselves if you hadn’t written back to Ron by Friday. But really,” (she was now adding three fried eggs to his plate) “flying an illegal car halfway across the country — anyone could have seen you —” She flicked her wand casually at the dishes in the sink, which began to clean themselves, clinking gently in the background.
The boys sat down in their normal spots but Ava merely curled up on George’s lap, closing her eyes once more in hopes of her dreamworld making a return.
“It was cloudy, Mum!” Fred protested, mouth full of food.
“You keep your mouth closed while you’re eating!” Their mum snapped, scolding the boy for his manners.
“They were starving him, Mum!” George cried out, considerately quieter than usual to accommodate his sleepy sister.
“And you!” Their mum snapped, but she softened when Ava sat up, wide awake.
At that moment there was a diversion. Ginny, who still wore her long nightdress, appeared in the kitchen. She met Harry’s curious gaze and gave a small squeal, before ran out again. “Ginny,” informed Ron, in an undertone to Harry. “My other sister. She’s been talking about you all summer.”
“Yeah, she’ll be wanting your autograph, Harry,” Fred said with a grin, but he caught their mother’s eye and bent his face over his plate without another word.
“Shut your trap, Ronald. Or else I’ll tell Harry all your secrets.” Ava muttered, reluctantly moving into her chair to eat.
Ron glared at her but she couldn’t care less. “You can’t-
”
“Spill anymore confidential information and I won’t hesitate.” Ava responded, bluntly and while stabbing her fork into a strawberry.
Nothing more was said until all four plates were clean, which took a surprisingly short time. Avalon was the first to finish because she was a vegetarian, much to their family’s dismay.
“Blimey, I’m tired,” yawned Fred, setting down his knife and fork at last. “I think I’ll go to bed and —”
“You will not,” her mum barked. “It’s your own fault you’ve been up all night. You’re going to de-gnome the garden for me; they’re getting completely out of hand again —”
“Oh, Mum —” “And you two,” she said, glaring at Ron and Fred. “You can go up to bed, dear,” she added to Harry. “You as well, Ava. You didn’t ask them to fly that wretched car —”
But Harry, who seemingly looked wide awake, said quickly, “I’ll help Ron. I’ve never seen a de-gnoming —”
“That’s very sweet of you, dear, but it’s dull work,” said their mum. “Now, let’s see what Lockhart’s got to say on the subject —” And she pulled a heavy book from the stack on the mantelpiece.
George groaned. “Mum, we know how to de-gnome a garden —”
The cover of mum’s book had fancy gold letters with the words Gilderoy Lockhart’s Guide to Household Pests written across it. There was a big photograph on the front of Gilderoy Lockhart, who had wavy blond hair and bright blue eyes. As always in the wizarding world, the photograph was moving; Lockhart kept winking cheekily up at them all, causing Ava to make a face at it.
Her mum beamed down at him like he was an angel. “Oh, he is marvellous,” she said. “He knows his household pests, all right, it’s a wonderful book...”
“Mum fancies him,” said Fred, in a very audible whisper.
“Don’t be so ridiculous, Fred,” said their mum, her cheeks rather pink. “All right, if you think you know better than Lockhart, you can go and get on with it, and woe betide you if there’s a single gnome in that garden when I come out to inspect it.”
Yawning and grumbling, her brothers slouched outside with Harry behind them. While Ava finished up her cup of tea at the table.
“Go on up to bed, dear. Ginny will wake you up for lunch.” Her mum insisted, pressing a soft kiss to her head.
Ava yawned, nodding in acceptance before stumbling upstairs to the room she shared with Ginny.
After all the excitement, Avalon just wanted to sleep.

So I've had this Tumbler for a while now, long time lurker and rarely posting. Just thought I'd give a little better introduction of myself than what my bio says.
I mostly prefer to keep to myself so excuse my sparse social interactions, haha. You can call me Charlie and I am definitely female. I was born the year Dr. Robert Ballard discovered the remains of the Titanic and for some inexplicable reason, I feel a connection to the “unsinkable” ocean liner. I had a minor obsession with the ship as a teen, and tend to enjoy reading about it, or watching documentaries or youtube videos of it. I am also a lover of Tudor history. 
My main interest here on Tumbler surrounds the Sims and fanfiction. I’ve been an avid simmer since the original Sims came out. I don’t know about anyone else, but for some reason I can get a kind of god complex when I play the sims, lol. I discovered mods during the Sims 3 and have been hooked ever since. My two favorite mods are MC command center and Wicked Whims. I’ve also used the extreme violence mod before and some of the sims storylines I created with these mods are rather, ahem, interesting. I would be willing to share if anyone is interested, just fair warning, these interesting sims stories are NSFW. 
My other love includes fanfiction. I first got involved in 2001 and was introduced in a now defunct Harry Potter site. My earliest fics are now lost. I later became prolific on fanfiction.net and you can still see my works there through the link in my profile. In 2005 I switched from Harry Potter over to Star Wars. For a brief time I had drifted into Gilmore Girls before drifting back to Harry Potter and back to Star Wars where I am currently firmly based. I have grown annoyed with fanfiction.net and decided to switch over to Archive of Our Own where all my current fics are being posted. 
My favorite fic trope is time travel/ time travel fix-its. 
I enjoy a variety of AU’s Such as: Anakin doesn’t fall, Darth Vader/Padme Amidala fics where Anakin was raised as a Sith, Character X doesn’t die, Luke and Leia were raised by at least one of their parents, and a multitude of variations of these tropes. In recent months I’ve gotten into modern au anidala fics, a trope that I’ve avoided for a while. 
My ships include:
Harry Potter/Hermione Granger
Rory Gilmore/Logan Huntzberger
Anakin Skywalker(Darth Vader)/Padme Amidala
Luke Skywalker/Mara Jade
Leia Organa/Han Solo
Ships that give me the willies but I wont judge those who enjoy them:
Anakin Skywalker/Obi-Wan Kenobi * Because they literally equate each other as brothers/family and have both said so more than once. 
Anakin Skywalker/Ahsoka Tano * These two have a big brother/little sister dynamic and nothing anyone says can dissuade me. 
Hermione Granger/ anyone who is a Death Eater. * Because, WTF? You know what I’m talking about, don’t lie.
Psychology is an interest of mine and I enjoy incorporating it into my works in recent years. If I could pass math and had the finances, I would pursue a degree in the subject. Mental Illness is a subject that is very important to me and I like to consider myself an advocate for the support of mental illness and fully believe in the benefits of therapy. So I do not, under any circumstances, tolerate the use of words like crazy and all its synonyms as a form of insult. Everyone struggles with something so a little kindness and understanding, compassion, is something we should extend to everyone around us, including those who have wronged us. I am very open with talking about my own struggles, in the hopes that I can help someone else struggling in whatever way I can. Sometimes, it helps to know that you are not alone in your struggles. 
I am not perfect, in any way, but I try to be a decent person with integrity. I make mistakes and often struggle in how to fix those mistakes. Often, I need people to come to me and tell me if I have hurt or offended them due to my own lack of a filter and impulsivity. I am very open to listening to grievances and to finding a way to work through those grievances. However, what I will never do is blast those grievances or work through them in a public forum. I prefer not to stir drama on the internet. It is preferable, IMHO, to work through any issues privately rather than air it all publicly. I have seen a lot of examples when grievances are aired online and it only ever invites people outside the situation to insert themselves into the situation and stir the drama even further. I have no interest in participating in such situations, it is way too stressful. This is why I have distanced myself from facebook. I would much rather save this account for stress relief fun. 
And here, I feel that I should reiterate another point I made in my profile. I very rarely, if ever, check my messages here on tumbler. When I first joined and for quite a while, the only messages I would receive was porn spam. So I found myself avoiding my messages here. I have zero interest in accepting porn spam. No, I will not check out your webcam. No, I am not interested in watching hot women or connecting with hot women. While I appreciate the female form and have had some celebrity girl crushes, I am very interested in men. And no, I am also not interested in unsolicited penis pictures either. Why do I appear to be interested in this shit? 
Back to a fun topic. My love for history, sims, fanfiction and geeky stuff is also accompanied by my love for music. My two favorite genres of music are Rock and Classical. I have a wide variety of music tastes but I can’t stand country music and disco. Ick
lol! I was exposed to a wide variety growing up so of course I love music. I listen to music during a majority of everyday tasks and while I read and write. My music library is absolutely huge! 
If Interested, I have compiled a personal playlist that expresses my life through song. You can check it out here:

my greatest regret is the shattering of a heart not mine.
Tumblr media
alternate universe fanfiction | descendants two | canon compliant | part one of ? | rating : teen | warnings : swearing, pirates making ben question his sexuality  | word count : 2002 | masterlist
prompt: none! i made this moodboard for the idea of this and i’m writing about it now, try and stop me.
|  “audrey,” harry tilts his head to the side, his expression unclear but he sees the motion. “my, uh, ex-girlfriend.  i kissed mal in front of everybody and i didn’t break up with her yet.”  he doesn’t give harry the chance to talk again before his mouth opens again with what seems like word-vomit. “she was my best friend, and i never said sorry.  i just miss her i guess.”  |
tags (open): @cherry-bxtch​​, @cosmosstarstudio​​, @go-sullivan​​
   ben feels everything.  his limbs are restrained against tough ropes and although none are touching his skin, it feels all too much.  the air seems so thick and his anxious heart is speeding in his chest.  what’s even worse is that he’s sure that the pirates keeping him captive are all too aware of his nervousness and can’t help but taunt him. and to make it worse, the boy with the hook (harry?) has nearly cut up his skin so many times ben has lost count. (six, it was six times that he could feel the cold metal of a hook on his flushed skin.)
   uma has said so many times that if he even breathes wrong he’s as good as dead.  so really, he’s stuck in place with praying that mal can get him out without giving uma the wand.  it hurts him how her body is filled to the brim with anger, no room for sympathy.  he watches her, and while he’s not very smooth about it, she likes being paid attention to, so it might just work in his favor.
  not that he even wanted to go back to auradon, he couldn’t, not after everything that he had seen.  everytime he closed his eyes he could see the innocent faces that watched him as he tried to be ‘bad’.  his heart had broken so many times today, and mal giving his ring back was the least of it.
  he wanted to help, but help seems to be eternities away.  what he wants to do is promise uma that he’ll make sure all of those kids are safe.  but he can’t, because he won’t break a promise, not another one.  
  uma had told him that the kids here don’t get anything, and the things that they do get is trash.  you can’t grow most of anything on the isle with the pollution, and even the better looking trash gets picked off by adults or their street rats.
  another thing that he’s super aware of is how cold it is. his heart is cold and they took his jacket and his hat and he’s shivering against the chilling air of the sea.  now all he’s left with is a ripped white tee-shirt and cold, tight leather pants that make his legs prickle up because of how sensitive he is, how sensitive he’s always been.
  it sends a pang to his heart thinking about hungry and shivering children huddled together by burning trash piles in allies, just waiting for bigger predator to come and hurt them.
  about two hours after the took him, after it had gotten dark, uma had asked harry to tie his arms over his head, because he was getting too comfortable.  harry had a blast doing that, and all ben could see was the glint of his hook and the blue of his eyes.  his hands had turned wandering and even as ben’s eyelids were hooded with tiredness, he knew what was happening. or at least, what harry thought was happening.  if it wasn’t so dark, they could see how flushed his face was.
   he was scared, ben was the first to admit it.  he just wanted to go home, he didn’t even care if mal came back.  he apologized, but she had made it clear he really didn’t mean anything to her.  he really had thought they were something, it felt like they were going to last, truly.  (he should’ve seen it coming after she had to spell him to swell his affections)
  he was barely a king, just shy of seventeen and the most unlike his father he could be.  ben was gentle and sympathetic whereas his father ruled with an iron fist, and there were no second chances.  none of the descendants of the villains deserved to be on the isle, ben knew that.  but he doubted he’d be able to convince any of the council that all of them could get off.   of course, uma doesn’t take that as an answer.
     “yeah, bullshit.” is what she says as he tries to explain the long and tiresome process, and then she leaves him with harry again.  uma doesn’t care what he has to say. she doesn’t care that she’s committing about twelve acts of treason right now, it’s refreshing almost, except for the fact that he’s probably going to die.
    “beasty boy, get out of your head.”  harry purrs, it’s almost calming, if you forget the shiny hook in his hand.  “uma says it’s bedtime, we gotta find someplace for you to rest you pretty little head.” he pretends he doesn't hear it, but it doesn’t work, obviously.
   he blushes, and his eyes find his way to the ground, “okay”.  it’s soft and small, which matches exactly how he feels.  he wishes he could melt into the wood that’s hard against his back, and his arms are beginning to ache with isn’t related but still on his mind.  he tugs at the rope, and harry’s eyes crinkle with the smirk that is probably on his smug face.
   “ah ah ah, i’m not untying you, princey.  you're gonna have to sleep like that.  but we can’t leave you out here. you’ve got a lotta’ people here that hate you, y’know.”  he hates that he is starting to like harry’s voice, and he writes it off because it’s dark and he can’t hear the boisterous chatter of the pirates on deck, as they have retired to bed.  uma wasn’t there, and it leaves ben to think that harry could literally kill him right now. he’s just lonely and scared.  so harry’s lilting accent is a comfort, because he’s scared. (yeah, ben doesn’t understand either)
    ben sighs, “i know.”  he does know, he just gets so hopeful.  it’s really quite stupid because he knows nothing is going to change except for the scenery.  his father says it’s his greatest flaw, that he always has hope.  only right now, he has lost hope, because he’d rather die than let uma hurt the people he loved in auradon.  (how heroic, right?)
   he thinks of audrey, and how she would be the first to tell him that she was right.  (she had planned the vks arrival in the first place, but she had still not quite agreed with it.  she had told him that villains can’t raise children, they needed extensive therapy before coming anywhere near auradon.)
   he misses audrey, she would’ve never let him do this.  he should have tried to keep in contact with his best friend, instead of keeping her out.  the princess used to calm him down when ben would get anxious, but now he’s all alone.  he can tell that once mal officially breaks up with him, her friends will follow.
   “when i said get out of your head, i fuckin’ meant it.”  he takes ben’s chin in his fingers, the notion is supposed to be sweet in an ideal world.  ben has come to learn that this is not an ideal world.  “you’re pretty, but not pretty enough that i won’t mark that skin of yours up.”  he flinches against the hold, but harry doesn’t budge.
    ben blushes at the pretty, especially the way he says it is more then mal ever has.  he undoes the ropes holding his waist, knees, and chest before harry roughly takes him by his tied hands.  “time to go below deck, hopefully this is the only time you’ll get to see it.” he pauses, and the hook is cold against his cheek.  “before uma throws you to the fishies.”
    ben nods sheepishly, “okay.” harry laughs before they start to move, and he tries to be so very careful not to fall.  he’s shivering as he moves, praying that it’ll be just a little warmer inside of the ship.  he knows better than to hope for that at least. 
    it’s a minute or so before they arrive at a dark door, with the moonlight streaming in from the circular window only highlighting the knob.  harry slides a key in the lock, holding onto ben’s hands with his hook.  the click is satisfying, but it sends a pang of nervousness to his chest.
    harry pushes him in, and he stumbles.  “stay here, i’m locking the door but i’ll be back with a blanket or something to keep you warm.”  he motions to the rickety cot looking bed strewn in the room. the mattress looked filthy, but it was something.  “not very comfortable, but only the best for his highness.”  he does his best not to correct him, because harry won’t care.
    ben nods and sits down on the bed, hands still tied.  harry’s right, it isn’t comfortable.  but it’s something at least, he could have had worse.  he’s grateful for being alive for this long, but he wishes he could apologize to everyone in auradon for failing as a king, and apologizing to some (one) for failing as a best friend.
   he curls against himself on the mattress, and he mentally praises himself for not worrying about the bugs that may be crawling beneath it.  ben is a king, but most of the time he still signs things as ‘prince benjamin’.  he says itïżœïżœs just because he forgets, but he hates being king most of the time.  it’s his responsibility though, so he will push through it.
    ben is pulled rapidly out of his thoughts when he hears the floors creaking.  the clink of a key chain soon follows with the click of the door as it creaks open.  his eyes blink at the light streaming in from the window, as his room has none.  harry clears his throat, “were you sleepin’ already, princey? you sure you need the blanket after all?”  
   he knows harry expects an answer, so he says, “no, just thinking.”  harry makes little ‘hm’ sound that really doesn’t suit him at all.  if it wasn’t dark and he wasn’t being held hostage by these people, ben would probably think it was cute.  the footsteps return slowly, as harry comes closer to him with a bundle of what ben assumes is the blanket in his arms.
   what he doesn’t assume is that harry places the blanket in his arms carefully as he squats down in front of him.  his elbows were perched upon his knees, ben tries not to notice his pretty blue eyes and how they shine in the faint light.  “thinkin’ ‘bout what?”  he blinks, and suddenly his head clears of everything except for the name of a pink princess.
   “audrey,” harry tilts his head to the side, his expression unclear but he sees the motion. “my, uh, ex-girlfriend.  i kissed mal in front of everybody and i didn’t break up with her yet.”  he doesn’t give harry the chance to talk again before his mouth opens again with what seems like word-vomit. “she was my best friend, and i never said sorry.  i just miss her i guess.”
   “was she pretty?” ben’s jaw would’ve dropped on a normal day.   
    “uhm, y-yes. yeah she was- is. she is pretty, really pretty.”  harry makes an ‘ah’ sound before he stands up, it sounds like he’s brushing off his thighs.
    “if i’m not going to get to hook you tomorrow, i’d ask if i could meet her.  maybe if you ask nicely she won’t end up with the rest of your friends. i bet her and uma would get along.”  ben inhales sharply, it’s shaky but sudden.
   “please harry, please don’t hurt her.”  his voice is pathetic, but if he really does end up dying, and everything goes to shit.  all he needs to know is that the one person who did anything or everything for him, would be safe.  
   harry chuckles softly, “mm, okay pretty boy.  one pretty princess audrey off of the kill list.”  and then he’s at the door, the light shining on his face. he yawns, “goodnight, princey.”   anxiety stirs in his stomach as he swallows in time with the click of the lock.
ʚĭɞ | if you want to be on my taglist, all you have to do is like this post.  it was so difficult to write this  without accidentally multi shipping ben with literally everyone wtf... bal shippers that write during d2,,, i,,, respect u.  this isn’t a benry fic but i will not lie to u and say ben doesn’t find harry attractive. - rory

On spot now (three)
This is becoming an issue... The pending list keeps getting bigger and my curiosity towards fanfiction does not seem to diminish. So, right now, I am really keeping an eye on these fanfictions:
Winter in the Shade by @willowbleedsonpaper | Ongoing | Sirius Black x Ravenclaw Reader & Regulus Black |  It is Sirius’ fifth year at Hogwarts, the same year he ran away from home and to the Potter’s. Soon, he discovers the unfamiliar sight of his brother Regulus smiling and looking truly happy, next to him a Ravenclaw girl who immediately captures his interest. What will happen when the Black family gets involved in their sons lives and the ones they hold close to their hearts? | I’m completely hooked. The dynamics between Sirius x Reader x Regulus are outstanding and I’m very curious to see how this will end.
How to tame a Marauder by melian225 | Complete (60 chapters) | Sirius Black x OC |  This story is structured as a coming-of-age story rather than a traditional romance. It follows Marauders Era from the 5th year and focuses on the female POV. | This fic was suggested by a reader when I launched the Sirius Black x OC fanfics list and I quickly read the first chapter and I couldn’t stop since. I’m loving it! 
Starman by rsbarelle | Ongoing (20 chapters so far) | Wolfstar | Compilation of one shots from MsKingBean89's 'All The Young Dudes' from Sirius Black's perspective & original 'Bootleg chapters' from other special characters perspectives that take place in MsKingBean89's Marauders' world! Lots of Wolfstar, lots of Sirius and James' friendship, and lots of Sirius and Regulus' relationship! | I discovered this fanfic thanks to a suggestion and I am loving it. Only read two chapters so far but it is so well written and captures so well the All The Young Dudes’ style.
Illicit Affairs by @artisancowbells | Coming soon | dadsbestfriend!siriusblack x reader | And that’s the thing with illicit affairs, they never last and they will burn their way out, the love taints your bones, and the kisses scar your lips. you are forbidden to hurt out in the open, so what do you do? ruin it all to convince yourself it happened. | So, I know this one has not started yet, but I am very curious to read the prologue. 
Howlin’ For You by gryffindorcutie | Completed (8 chapters) | Remadora | Remus doesn’t deserve her. He’s too old, too broken, and too dangerous to ever love her properly.And it’s simpler for Tonks, she just wants him, scars and all. | This is a sequel to "Why So Sirius", a fanfic I really liked. So, naturally, this one is now pending. 
Oblivion by @marvelcapsicle / prongsdeer | Complete (13 chapters) | Remus Lupin x OC | It wasn’t so long ago when Remus finally started to recover from what happened; after nearly two years, he finally felt he could move on. But standing in front of her and talking with her brought everything back – every feeling and every memory – everything that she had no idea about. He was a stranger to her, while she was still his whole world. | Not started reading it yet, but very curious about it. 
Blackout by @rainandhotchocolate | Ongoing (12 parts so far) | Sirius Black x Reader | I still need to read the first part to check what it is about, but because I love all rainandhotcholate’s writings, I’m sure I’ll love this one too. 
Surrounded by the Moon and Stars by @gotkindabored | Ongoing (12 parts so far) |  Sirius Black x [F]Reader, Remus Lupin x [F]Reader | The year is 1975 and Y/N L/N recently to London, England. As a transfer student from Ilvermorny, it was an understatement to say that she was out of her element. But what happens when you add friendship, love, drama and war together? Only time will tell and we all know that time waits for no one. | As soon as I finish How to Tame a Marauder, I’ll be jumping into this one!
Awakening by SweetShireen | Complete (13 chapters) | Harmione | After his name came out of the Goblet of Fire, Harry woke to a disturbing reality. The wizarding world only saw him as an expendable pawn, his carefree attitude towards studying left him struggling to survive, and he had never truly appreciated the one, constant companion at his side—Hermione Granger. It was high time for change. Gradual Grey!HHR. | I haven’t read any Harmione fanfiction yet, this will be the first one.

12 New Thrillers To Take You Through To Autumn
As the nights start to draw in, you may find yourself hankering after a chunky darker read to match the view outside. Maybe you’ve still got a cosy staycation on the horizon before the end of the summer and want to throw yourself down a twisty path of secrets and lies. I’m a magpie for good, page-turning mysteries and complex, well-written characters, so I wanted to share my favourite 2020 thrillers with you in the hope that you’ll find something intriguing. Enjoy and stay safe! -Love, Alex x
1. Dead To Her by Sarah Pinborough.
Tumblr media
In the sun-soaked, wealthy social circles of Savannah, Georgia, Marcie Maddox has finally managed to establish herself as the centrepoint of this lavish, sumptuous world. Then her husband’s boss brings a beautiful new wife back from London and Marcie’s place in Savannah society begins to look a little precarious. How far will she go to maintain her position and keep the wandering eyes of her husband firmly on her? Flawed, unpredictable characters and curveballs everywhere, Dead To Her is a revenge thriller that incorporates sun, sex and superstition.
2. Invisible Girl by Lisa Jewell.
Tumblr media
When vulnerable 17-year-old Saffyre Maddox goes missing, the entire Hampstead community have their own ideas about what happened to her. With local reports of sexual attacks on young women, Cate Fours, mother-of-two and wife of Saffyre’s former psychologist Roan, has her suspicions about Owen Pick, the odd single man who lives opposite them. Invisible Girl is unnerving, twisty and highly addictive with believable characters who you both suspect and empathise with. A unique, mind-fuck of a domestic suspense novel.
3. The Octopus by Tess Little.
Tumblr media
Despite not having spoken for ten years, Elspeth is invited to celebrate her ex-husband Richard’s 50th birthday at his stunning LA mansion, so she is surprised to discover that there are just seven other guests in attendance. The next morning, Richard is dead and of course, everyone is a suspect. Including Richard’s pet octopus Persephone. This strange, heady mystery has strong Christie vibes and explores the haziness of memory, the horrors and repercussions of abusive relationships and the dangers of power.
4. Nothing Can Hurt You by Nicola Maye Goldberg.
Tumblr media
When a student is killed, her boyfriend confesses citing temporary insanity. His acquittal rocks the community and everyone has questions, creating a relentless search of justice and explanation. Inspired by a true story, this riveting mystery reads like a collection of short stories, as we hear from a multitude of voices of varying degrees of closeness to the victim. Focusing on gendered violence and white privilege, it’s a very timely haunting read.
5. The Search Party by Simon Lelic.
Tumblr media
Sadie Saunders has been missing for a week and the whole town thinks she is dead but her brother, boyfriend and three of her friends are determined to find out what really happened. However, the search party quickly takes a dark turn and all of them are under suspicion, when secrets gradually start to spill out. Stephen King-esque character dynamics and a completely unpredictable ending, The Search Party is a claustrophobic multi-layered mystery that will keep you hooked.
6. Imperfect Women by Araminta Hall.
Tumblr media
Nancy Hennessey has been murdered and naturally, her two best friends Eleanor and Mary suspect her secret lover to be behind it. When the investigation turns up nothing, Eleanor and Mary each struggle to deal with their grief amidst questioning how well they really knew Nancy. Imperfect Women features highly frustrating characters and an intensely intriguing mystery with themes of motherhood and lifelong female friendship. A stark reminder that life rarely sticks to our plans for it and that we should learn to love our imperfections gives this dark story a glimmer of light.
7. You Let Me In by Camilla Bruce.
Tumblr media
Reclusive writer Cassandra Tipp has disappeared and no one knows whether she’s dead or alive. She has left her huge fortune and a manuscript addressed to her niece and nephew, full of instructions to follow and the truth behind all of the gossip and rumours that have haunted her life. Elements of magical realism and Gothic horror thread through this gripping original and imaginative novel.
8. Heatstroke by Hazel Barkworth.
Tumblr media
During a sweltering summer, 15-year-old Lily fails to come home one afternoon. Her English teacher Rachel’s daughter Mia is Lily’s best friend and Lily’s absence leads Rachel to confront some painful home truths. Thought-provoking and intense, Heatstroke follows a woman’s mental spiral and obsession, exploring mistrust and power in an atmospheric setting.
9. The Wives by Tarryn Fisher.
Tumblr media
Despite never having met them, Thursday has always known that her husband Seth has two other wives. Then she finds something that suggests a very different narrative to her husband’s life than the one she thought she knew. Be prepared to be taken for a very twisty unsettling ride through the depths of a complex polygamous arrangement and everything that entails in this compulsively readable thriller.
10. The Other Girl by C. D. Major.
Tumblr media
Set in 1940s New Zealand, Edith has been locked in Seacliff Lunatic Asylum for 15 years, since the tender age of five. When her entire ward burns down, a new doctor Declan Harris begins to question whether Edith’s childhood stories have any truth to them. This fascinating historical thriller offers a unique insight into the horrors and injustices within a broken mental health system and throws in a haunting Gothic vibe for added creep factor.
11. Keep Him Close by Emily Koch.
Tumblr media
When Alice’s son Lou is found dead, Indigo’s son Kane is accused of his murder. In an attempt to find out why her boy died, Alice befriends Indigo, keeping her true identity a secret, as Indigo fights to clear Kane’s name. But how long can this secret stay buried? If you like a few tears mixed in with your domestic drama, Keep Him Close is the moving, tense and sensitive read for you.
12. The Silence by Susan Allott.
Tumblr media
When the disappearance of a neighbour from decades ago yanks Isla out of her lonely Hackney life and back to her childhood home of Sydney, Australia, she starts to question everything she thought she knew about her family and community. Is her father really capable of the unspeakable? Do the secrets run deeper into the past than anyone imagined? Set across two time periods, The Silence is a literary debut that is dark and slow-burning with heartbreaking Australian history to feed your thoughts.

| MASTERLIST |
Tumblr media
As Bella was walking down the hall Audrey turns the corner bumping into her, "Oh, Bella." She eyes her.
"Audrey,"
"Haven't we talked about your outfit choices? Your parents prefer you in dresses and skirts." Audrey points at her outfit.
"Yes, we have and yes they do but I can wear what I want to wear." Bella smiles walking off.
"I wasn't done."
"I am!" Bella waves walking to class.
During history class Jay and Bella sat beside each other and she kept stopping him from stealing her stuff the entire time.
"Are you going to give up?" She asks as she gets her bag as class was over.
"I'm just testing you. See how well trained you are." Jay eyes her leaving class first.
"Apparently better than you my dude." She talks to herself leaving the class you following Jay from far behind.
As she walks past him standing with Mal at her locker she holds up his history papers he had put in his bag, "Again!" He shouts making Mal confused. "Stop stealing my stuff. You proved you're good." Jay takes the papers out of her hand.
"Huh?" Mal looks at them.
"Princess Isabella here is a gifted thief." Jay explains so Bella gets something out of her bag.
"Have you noticed yet?" Bella smiles showing Mal her spell book.
"When did you? How? Give me that." Mal takes it back.
"She got something that important for you and you didn't even notice... You're surprising me." Jay laughs.
"How long have you had it?" Mal asks.
"Umm about two hours since I took it during math with you. Thank you Amir for teaching me. Aladdin's son by the way." Bella tells her which shocked her. "Oh and Evie's magic mirror." She passes it over.
"Why?"
"Just proving to Jay, I'm better than him at his own game. See you at the game." Bella walks off from them.
"She's bad deep down." Jay looks at Mal.
"I would guess it gets boring here." Mal watches Bella till she was out of sight.
Later at the game Bella stood with Mal and Evie, "Do we normally win?" Evie asks her.
"Yeah, I don't care like most of the school does. But it might be interesting with Carlos and Jay on the team now." She tells her.
While the game goes on and Carlos was put in all start to get nervous as it was a tied game. "GO! YOU GOT THIS!" Bella screams at Carlos, Ben, and Jay as they get close to the goal.
"He scores!" Evie and Bella cheer jumping up and down.

"M!"
"Give me an A!" He yells.
"He's..." Bella looks at Mal.
"Give me an L!"
"L!" Everyone screams.
"What's that spell?" He asks?
"Mal!" Everyone one screams.
"I love you Mal. Did I mention that? Give me a beat!" He yells making the band start to okay.
"Oh, my god." Bella's jaw drops with the girls.
"What was in that cookie?" Mal laughs.
"Did you do something?" Bella laughs, "Because if so... trust me, you didn't have to." She says knowing he already had a crush on her.
"Did I mention that I'm in love with you? And did I mention there's nothing I can do? And did I happen to say, I dream of you every day, Well let me." Ben sings
"Shout it out loud!" Everyone sings.
"If that's ok. Hey hey"
"Hey!" Bella and Evie shout.
"If that's ok, Hey!"
"I met this girl that rocked my world. Like it's never been rocked. And now I'm living just for her. And I won't ever stop. I never thought that it could happen. To a guy like me. But now look at what you've done. You got me down on my knees." Ben starts to dance making his sister crack up.
[Ben & Choir] Because my love for you is Ridiculous! I never knew (Who knew?) That it could be like this My love for you is Ridiculous! My love is r-i-d-i-c-u-l-o-u-s (R-i-d-i-c-u-l-o-u-s) It's (Ridiculous) Just (Ridiculous) And I would give my kingdom for just one kiss

I don't know what I'll do" Ben sings and r the team grow him forward making Bella and Mal cover their mouths.
[Ben, Choir, Both] Because my love for you is Ridiculous! I never knew (Who knew?) That it could be like this My love for you is Ridiculous! My love is r-i-d-i-c-u-l-o-u-s (R-i-d-i-c-u-l-o-u-s) It's (Ridiculous) Just (Ridiculous) And I would give my kingdom for just one kiss Come on now
[Ben & Choir] Uh Oh yeah Yeow Alright (Hey) Alright
Ben throws his jersey out at the stands for Mal
[Ben, (Choir), Both] Because my love for you is Ridiculous! I never knew (Who knew?) That it could be like this My love for you is Ridiculous! My love is r-i-d-i-c-u-l-o-u-s (R-i-d-i-c-u-l-o-u-s)
"This is ridiculous." Bella laughs as Ben crowd servers over to them.
It's (Ridiculous) Just (Ridiculous)
When Mal sees him comes she tries to move away but Evie and Bella stop her.
"And I would give my kingdom for just one kiss. Come on now!" Ben stops right in front of her. "I love you, Mal. Did I mention that?" He puts his arm around her as Audrey comes up.
"Chad's my boyfriend now!" She steals the mic from Ben, "And I'm going to the coronation with him. So, I don't need your pity date." Audrey kiss Chad.
"Mal! Will you go to coronation with me?" Ben takes the mic back.
"Yes!" She shouts into the mic causing everyone to cheer.
"Evie, trust me. You don't need a prince. Especially one named Chad. You could do way better. I know I don't know you very well but from what I do know and see... You are talented and don't need a Prince to feel good about yourself." Bella says seeing she was upset so Mal listened in.
"Bella is right. You are very talented in sewing and beauty tips." Mal joins in.
"I guess I am kinda talented." Evie smiles.
"You are very talented." Mal laughs.
"To be honest, Mal. I don't care what you did to Ben." Bella says shocking her, "You got rid of Audrey and I love you for that. She's so just, ugh." Bella makes the girls laugh.

What books are on your nightstand?
“All the Stars and Teeth,” by Adalyn Grace; “Ninth House,” by Leigh Bardugo; “The Last Arrow,” by Erwin Raphael McManus. I always have an itch for great fantasy, which Grace and Bardugo provide. And I’m always interested in self-development and books that feed my soul like “The Last Arrow.”
What’s the last great book you read?
“Daring Greatly,” by BrenĂ© Brown! I was really moved by her Netflix special, and listening to her audiobook came at the perfect time in my life. She has a way of perfectly describing some of the most intimate human emotions and experiences, and she provides concrete, actionable solutions. She gave me a new level of self-awareness that’s helped me navigate my life in a meaningful way, so I’m a big fan.
Are there any classic novels that you only recently read for the first time?
Recently, no. The vast majority of American classics were ruined for me because schools made me read them too young. If I remember correctly, I think I had to read “Self-Reliance,” by Ralph Waldo Emerson, in seventh grade. I remember reading “Death of a Salesman” in high school and hating it, but when I read it in college I loved it. I was blown away by what Arthur Miller had created. Because of that, I’m saving my reread of the classics for a time when life isn’t too crazy and I can focus. I want to make sure if I don’t like what society has deemed a classic story, it’s because I don’t like the actual story, and not because I didn’t understand it when I was 12.
Describe your ideal reading experience (when, where, what, how).
My ideal reading experience is on the beach, under an umbrella, with my Kindle, and with a tasty drink and snack by my side.
What’s your favorite book no one else has heard of?
I don’t think I have one? I’m a pretty basic person. I’m not even cool enough to like niche anime. Everything I gravitate to is pretty well known because they are such amazing stories.
If I had to pick one, I’d say most of my younger readers probably aren’t familiar with “The Souls of Black Folk,” by W. E. B. DuBois, and most of my older readers probably aren’t familiar with “Six of Crows,” by Leigh Bardugo.
What book should everybody read before the age of 21?
“The Poet X,” by Elizabeth Acevedo. It’s a stunning story told in verse about a young Dominican poet learning to use her voice and take up space. I think as we grow up and start to discover who we are, we also have to discover what we want to say. Then we have to get comfortable saying it. I think this is the kind of story that makes you feel strong when you’re reading it, and then you can lean on that strength when you need to use your voice and take up space in your real life.
Which writers — novelists, playwrights, critics, journalists, poets — working today do you admire most?
For novelists, I’m a forever-fan of Sabaa Tahir. Her debut fantasy — “An Ember in the Ashes” — was the epic tale that inspired me to write “Children of Blood and Bone.” It moved me in ways a story hadn’t moved me before and gave me a chance to imagine a fantasy world with characters I’d never gotten to see before.
For journalists, Shaun King. The work Shaun does for the black community is incredible. I respect his strength, tenacity and passion, and I admire him deeply for the commitment to getting our stories out.
For critics, I think YouTubers like Cosmonaut Variety Hour and Alex Meyers? I get a lot of entertainment from their television and movie reviews, and also get refreshers on good storytelling.
What writers are especially good on adolescent life?
Angie Thomas, Nic Stone and Jason Reynolds!
How do you distinguish Y.A. books from adult fiction?
Honestly, the main difference to me is how quickly I’m captured and transported into the story. I find the best young adult novels have all the best parts of adult fiction — the extensive world-building, the complex characters, the beautiful prose — layered over a fast-paced, exciting plot. Most of the adult fiction I read takes its time building to the climax.
Which young adult books would you recommend to people who don’t usually read Y.A.?
I always recommend “An Ember in the Ashes” and “Six of Crows” after one of my readers has finished “Children of Blood and Bone.” I find those three fantasies crossover really well and help hook people into reading other young adult books.
What’s the most interesting thing you learned from a book recently?
That you’re not supposed to fight your anxiety, you’re supposed to fight the things that are causing your anxiety by setting better boundaries for yourself and for others. That’s one of the golden nuggets in “Daring Greatly.”
Which genres do you especially enjoy reading? And which do you avoid?
I love a good romance! I’m always game for young adult fantasy and sci-fi. I want to read more adult books, contemporary books and poetry. And sadly, I avoid nonfiction. When I read, I like to go somewhere else in my mind with stories that touch our real world without taking place in it.
What makes for a good fantasy novel?
I think the most magical fantasies will always be the ones with a world you want to live in forever. For example, I think we loved Harry Potter, but we were in love with Hogwarts. We all wanted to go to class with him. We all wanted our own wands. I think great worlds are important because they allow readers to play in that world with their imagination long after the book is done, but a great world isn’t complete without a great protagonist.
What moves you most in a work of literature?
Acts of love. Be it familial, friendly or romantic. A beautifully described, tender act of love destroys me.
How do you organize your books?
ORIGINAL STORIES: I have a lot of the stories I wrote when I was young on my Kindle — they are hilarious and incredible and always funny to read.
BOOKS ON WRITING: I always want to be a better writer/storyteller than I am now. I love books and YouTube videos that break down the art of story.
FICTION: Most of my library is Y.A., so this is where my “I’m an adult” fiction goes.
SCI-FI: Though I’m a child of fantasy, my interest in the stars and spaceships is growing.
FANTASY: Includes all the great franchises of the past and all the exciting, diverse stories that are being published today.
Who is your favorite fictional hero or heroine? Your favorite antihero or villain?
Antiheroes: Zuko, from “Avatar: The Last Airbender”; Logan, from “X-Men”; Kaz Brekker, from “Six of Crows.” Villains: Light Yagami, from “Death Note,” and Magneto, from “X-Men.” I guess my Slytherin is showing, because I love my antiheroes and my villains more than my heroes.
What kind of reader were you as a child? Which childhood books and authors stick with you most?
I was a voracious reader when I was young. I lived for the summer reading challenges where I could read 50 books and get like three Airheads at the end of August. The authors and books that worked themselves into my heart were Mary Pope Osborne and her Magic Tree House series, J. K. Rowling and Harry Potter, Masashi Kishimoto and “Naruto.” I consider myself a creative child of fantasy and anime.
How have your reading tastes changed over time?
My Kindle is loaded up with several of the stories I wrote as a girl and as a teenager. It’s wild reading them now because I vaguely remember the nights and weekends I stayed up writing these tales, and I see the plots and character types that I’ve loved reading about and imagining since I was young.
I’ve always loved sweeping romances and magical fantasies. I’ve loved headstrong, determined female protagonists and epic battles. I still like to read the same things. I think the difference now is that I get to read all the things I like with characters who look like me. My childhood stories didn’t give me that. Even in the stories I wrote myself, I was only writing white characters and biracial characters. I didn’t realize it at the time, but that erasure was painful and damaging to my sense of self. So getting to create and read stories that fight that erasure and build on my sense of self is the only significant change in my reading tastes.
You’re organizing a literary dinner party. Which three writers, dead or alive, do you invite?
Oprah Winfrey, Octavia E. Butler and Toni Morrison. I would be extremely uncomfortable in the midst of all that greatness, and I probably wouldn’t speak. But while stuffing my face with little lobster rolls, I would get to learn from and be inspired by those three incredible women.
Whom would you want to write your life story?
Honestly, me, because I’m a perfectionist. But I don’t think I’m the best person to write my story because while I have a unique take on my story, I also lack a lot of necessary perspectives that would be needed to write an accurate life story. I’m going to cheat this one and say I would like Shonda Rhimes to do a highly dramatized mini-series of my life story.
What do you plan to read next?
“Blood Heir,” by AmĂ©lie Wen Zhao. I’ve heard really great things. I’m excited to check it out!
