Imagine being one of the most well known trans streamers (at least that I've ever heard), being allowed to afford for pretty much whatever affirming care you want, and then making fun of another trans women for.... Being a trans woman. And then you throw a hissy fit when people say you're shitty for that. Like damn you have so many people going to bat for you for being a piece of shit to someone else in your own community, you can afford to do this, and then you just say you're not 'quirky' enough to fit in with us. You're just being an asshole. Trying to say 'normal' trans women don't exist is pretty fucking disgusting.
#I went and looked through the blog cause I was real curious#And just holy shit#They're throwing around 'awww people on tumblr have piss poor reading comprehension đ„ș' and while that is often true#I feel like that phrase needs to be taken away sometimes because if 90% of the people who saw your post went#'WOW what an asshole!'#I think you may be a piece of shit#Like damn I wish I was quirky enough to get a good enough following on Twitch I could sustain myself and also get surgery!#That'd sure be great!#I'm glad she got that opportunity but I think she doesn't realize that is EXTREMELY fortunate#She is one of the most privileged trans women I've seen on here and she uses that to be an ass half the time

Hiii hope you wonât mind this ask! I just found your blog and iâve gone over it a bit and I saw you talking about h and l not being together and it made me curious about your larry thoughts!! You can answer in the tags if you donât want to start discourse but I hope you do answer:((!
I donât know if you think theyâve been together in the past/never together or just donât care about it cause scrolling through Tumblr is a nightmare and I canât see all your posts obviously ahaha but personally I thought they were together and I think they might have broken up in the last year or so. I got a strong sixth sense in general if you could call it that and lately I can sense something is different and I can see some people feel the same but donât really discuss it openly so I wanted to hear your opinion.
The last thing that made me âsureâ they were still a thing while looking at the previous 12 years was harryween with hopelessly devoted to you and then Louis quoting it at his grease fav. After that I canât really see something that makes me think âat that point they must have been together cause otherwise it wouldnât make senseâ. And paired it up with louis in particular being a bit strange in the last few months and with what you pointed out as well namely Harry doing everything he can to not be even thought to be on tour with L⊠As I said I donât know when you started talking about a break up, but do you think that halloweenâs occurance was still them being together or teasing each other from a distance or maybe just keeping larries at bay? And would you mind telling me then when you think their situation changed and what you think now? Sorry itâs so longggg and thank you if you take time to answer me <3
Helllllllo, I never mind any kind of ask! Granted, sometimes I might not answer but only because I'm overwhelmed, or it's the same ask in a row, or I'm not loving a sentence, or I just don't feel like it, or I think a bathroom shot is more appropriate, lmao, but this one? I got all the time in the world for youâŠso much so that I'll put it under the cut, since the ask is long enough itself, as shall the answer be!
Welcome to this mess, and wow, I'm so bowled over you even tried to scroll, I know trying to search tumblr.biz is a loser's lover's game, even for the loser lover who wrote it, so I won't even bother, but we can start fresh!
So my thoughts: Hell yeah, I think these two were together back in the day, probably almost immediately (see: the entire x-factor scandale with the blinds about all the fucking, the stairs interviews, ALL OF IT, screammmm). I don't know how long or even IF they were strictly monogamous, they were in a pressure cooker situation of near-constant contact with each other for five years, but I do think it eventually morphed into something open and/or then into a messy on again/off again situationship. Thatâs my current stance today, in factâc'est messy!!!!
Iâll do the usual caveat that none of us actually KNOWS them, though, or what went down, we're only looking at what we see (and hear) and making a wild guess, and yet! Plenty of people see (and hear) the same thing and opt for a crazy reach with their whole chest, all to justify something happening between teenagers 13 years ago as if NOTHING would or could have changed since then. And some of those reaches make literally no sense, or they wash away anything that gets too close to that third rail of cognitive dissonance, the proverbial fingers in ears, lalalalala. I saw it recently on a post I made about clingy Harry with a stranger on the drunk WeHo trolley, with someone in the tags going, wait, Iâve never seen this! Of course you havenât, thatâs what an echo chamber does, bb!
Personally, I don't get that mindsetâwhatâs so wrong about learning life is tough and things change for two literal strangers? Sure, we all love love and want the best for them, but shit happens in real life, too. Maybe it's easier to latch onto made-up receipts or straight up call a blue a green, but I think a big aspect of it is also the need to be right, to show you arenât crazy, itâs real, and that gets frequently mixed in as being âsupportive,â like you're some kind of homophobe if these two break up, as if two men fucking two other men somehow isn't worthy of your âsupport." But Iâm here to say those two things actually can exist, something can be true in the past and not be true today, and it doesnât negate the past bit, shocking, right?
Anyway, I digress. I feel like your sixth sense is on the money, and I'd love to hear more about it, either message me here or dm me about what tips you into that direction (hey!) because I feel like there is SO MUCH THAT DOES, yet few people really get into it. To me, itâs just a lot of content, so much content, the bare minimum being lyrics in multiple songs across a shit ton of albums, both solo and the very last 1D one. At this point, to me, Larry âproofsâ sound insane (he wore green pants, they're MARRIED!!!!!), and part of me is like, kudos to you, Mr. Tomlinson, jesus loves you more than you will know, etc. Even that Harryween outfit of which you speak feels like a reach of a reach, a callback of a reach, mostly because itâs also not that deep, Grease isn't some tiny film nobody's seen, it's actually a remarkably easy group costume, AND it references things that could be nostalgic to two sets of people (larries and larry). I actually feel like these two at this point are either a) signaling to each other in some kinda way, like that monitor edgeplay shit they used to do (which works if you're together or apart, I might add), or b) cashing in some of that green blue green, if you feel me. And again, both of those could be true at once, they don't cancel each other out. I have two hands, I can hold a lotta thoughts!
Itâs at this point where I start banginâ the drum for garries because gaylors have it dead easyâyou can be a gaylor and think that kaylor was a thing, but it doesnât mean itâs STILL a thing to you, so whither garries!? I just donât think a lot of todayâs larries do themselves any favors by doubling down and driving out anyone who has questions. For the big ones, thereâs no room for even whispering, hey, yeah, they were together, but they might have broken up, maybe??? Itâs, like, NO!!! Theyâre mawwwwwwied, #husbands, theyâve only fucked one person, each other, letâs jump through a hoop that says Louis wearing green sweats is so LOUD (Iâm not listening to lyrics, though, lalalalalala)!! Itâs tragic and frankly dumb, but if you want to wallow in the persecution complex of it all, âeverybody hates us âč (including Louis),â I guess the option is there, the whole us vs. them of it all that Iâm just personally not into.
But I do feel like thereâs some hope, itâs nice to see people coming around to the idea that, yeah, they WERE together and maybe they arenât anymore, but itâs okay, itâs not the end of the world! It wasnât all sunshine and rainbows, maybe theyâll reunite someday, or maybe itâs a goddamned hot mess, but you know what? Not my circus, not my monkeys! Granted, that part is harder for people who are mutuals with those who will not tolerate doubts even for a secondâI just hope they venture off and find the other chill people, u know, the ones a lot of larries wish they saw on their dashes instead of hand-wringers, uh oh, oops, reaping = sowing.
Iâm sorry, Iâm ramblinâ here, letâs get back to your questions at the end of your ask! Do I think Harryween was them together or teasing each other or keeping larries at bay? Hmmmm, maybe a secret fourth thing: easy costume, easy global reference, and itâs not gonna keep larries at bay, lmao. Idk, man, for all we know (which, again, is literally nothing, nobodyâs getting 24/7 content for 5 years straight anymore, such a bitter pill to swallow), maybe Grease is a fave movie of someone whoâs in the new band, maybe Harryâs got a close personal friend whoâs into it, too, maybe Louis's not the only guy in the world Harryâs dated whoâs obsessed with Danny Zuko.
As for when do I think their situation changed, I think Eleanor was a big clue, breakup no. 1 was probably around their own breakup no. 1, she was an amazing proxy in so many ways, but Iâm sure there were rifts and spats along the way (it even seeped into interviews that get written off as cute funsies or else are outright ignored because nobody watches beyond the gif format). I follow at least one person who talks about the '15 promo tour as giving very recent breakup energy, yet still has some fwb vibes, which means it's AWKWARD in spots, and I can see that. It would also explain why they were suddenly able to "sit together,â lol. Anyway, yes, that breakup (both times) was a big sign, I think no more peace ring was a HUGE sign, I think the writeups by Rob Sheffield (both of them, actually), especially the last paragraph of the Fine Line cover story was a NEON sign, and I think the last four albums by both of them spell it out, underline it, bold it, AND italicize it super clearly, but those are just the easy pickings (see also: Harry biking around daily to prove heâs not in Poland, Greece, etc., and the response is always, âWe donât know what day this was,â lmao).
What I think now is up above! I think itâs messy! Complicated! They arenât #married! Now is that a forever thing? Whoâs to say, and more importantly, whoâs to really care on a âdoes this impacts my daily life in some kind of financial or spiritual way,â see further: circus, monkeys. I get that itâs easy to say, I interact with a lot of other people who donât care and won't ostracize me for being a doubting Susan with my ~controversial thoughts and UOs. But there are those with faith in the future, so maybe it is as it wasâŠhehe, oh me. I amuse myself, at least. Sorry this is an epic reply, and that itâs days late, I hope it gives you what you wanted to know! Anyone sending me garbage will get a bathroom response, peace and love.

Hi! I found your blog through the female rage substack article that you posted and Iâm curious about a couple things (so I hope the tone of this ask will read as genuine/non-confrontational etc).
I really liked the article and the anti-gender essentialist content, so I looked through the others and eventually found your jegulus article (which I read and also liked) but I was sort of surprised to see that you are a part of the hp/marauders fandom. For me personally, everything related to that franchise has just been tainted since the whole jkr terf debacle really took off. I was big on hp when I was younger and wolfstar is a ship/dynamic that I enjoyed back then, so Iâd probably like your stuff if I were to read it. But I decided some time ago to give any and all hp content the chop, because to me it didnât feel right to engage with it anymore. So I was just wondering how you feel in that regard, if you donât mind sharing. I donât have anyone in my internet content circle that still actively posts about hp and if irl friends still enjoy it then itâs not something we talk about, so Iâd just like to know how you juggle the âtwo sidesâ in that sense of your trans-positive/anti-essentialist beliefs and fandom content thatâs still so intrinsically connected to jkr and her politics. (Also, sorry if youâve answered a question like this before. I scrolled through your blog a bit, but if yes then not far enough.)
Anyway, hope youâre well and Iâll probably keep an eye out for any future essays on your substack even if I donât follow you on here. cheers! (and thanks for the âplaying the whoreâ book rec, Iâll be looking into that. a rec from my end would be paul b. preciado's "can the monster speak". it's the written version of a speech he tried to give at a Freudian psychoanalysis conference about the position trans people occupy in psychoanalysis before being booed off stage. it was short and pretty intriguing, in case you're interested/haven't heard of it yet.)
hi! happy 2 hear u enjoyed the female rage essay--i wasn't expecting it to spread as much as it did + had to turn off reblogs for my own peace of mind 2 keep terfs away from my blog, but it's nice to know there are still people getting something out of it. also appreciate the book rec--that definitely sounds up my alley + i'm excited to check it out!
and i'll do my best to answer your question about hp, but i'm gonna put it under a cut because i know this is a contentious topic + i have a feeling my answer's gonna get long--so if anyone doesn't want 2 read abt my conflicting hp-fandom thoughts, just scroll away please xx
so, quite honestly, i'm in agreement with you that the entire franchise is tainted by jkr. the truth is that it was never really my intention to join the fandom--i read a single fic because it went viral on tiktok, then decided to rewrite the fic from another character's pov just for fun. at that point, i hadn't read any other hp fic and had never been involved in any kind of online fandom space, and although i'd read the hp books + watched the movies growing up i hadn't touched them in years + was so far removed from the franchise that i vaguely remembered hearing jkr had said some terfy stuff, but wasn't aware of the extent to which her politics were like. actively and significantly causing real-life harm.
anyway, i'd done a rewrite for fun of another story i liked and had posted it on ao3, and that had received a handful of people commenting + talking about the story with me as i wrote but had remained pretty self-contained + small. i was expecting the same sort of thing with the hp fic i rewrote, but instead someone posted about it on tiktok and it went viral, and then suddenly there were thousands of people reading every ch update and hundreds of comments. like i said, i had never been involved in an online fandom space before, so i sort of awkwardly stumbled into it and tried to figure out what i was doing as i finished up writing the fic. this was at a point in my life where i'd recently moved to a different country and had to go back in the closet after being publicly out for years, and this online fandom space became my only queer community and a bit of a lifeline in that way. i started making actual friends and talking to people + getting more deeply involved in the community aspect of things.
at the same time, i started actually educating myself on jkr + her politics + her impact, and the more i learned the more uncomfortable i became with being part of anything hp-related. now, i've been writing hp fic for almost two years and 'active' in the fandom for ~one and a half, and despite being grateful for the friends i've made and treasuring the space i've been able to cultivate, i've become increasingly disenchanted with 'the fandom' as a whole and have increasingly found it to be a hostile space, so i've sort of taken a step back from broader engagement and more + more have limited my interaction to just my mutuals here on tumblr. unfortunately, i think many of the 'bad parts' of this fandom are somewhat built-in because of the source material; there are a lot of people who agree with jkr's politics to varying extents and that can make it kind of a miserable place to be sometimes. i know many people insist that hp can be completely removed from jkr, but i don't think that's the case, and i've talked on my blog before about the fact that her politics are built into the very foundations of the text, so i think it's necessary to acknowledge her influence if we want to actually engage with hp at all in a way that isn't just perpetuating her politics.
all that being said, the point i'm at currently is that i'm not really sure that this fandom is a space i want to be a part of forever. again--i understand how it can be lifeline for some people and a queer community they might not have elsewhere, because that's been the case for me. but for me personally, as much as i value my own carved-out space, it doesn't completely outweigh the negatives that i have found myself coming into contact with more and more in this fandom. writing hp fic is also something that i keep strictly separate from 'real life,' contained solely in this online space, because i know that any engagement with hp is a red flag for many, many trans people and i don't want to bring it outside of this space. within this online space, i don't keep it a secret that i write hp fic; it's right at the top of my blog so that anyone who wants to can easily block and unfollow me. i only post my fics on ao3, where they are clearly tagged as harry potter fanfiction, and i only post about hp fic + fandom stuff on this blog, which was specifically created for that purpose. i've requested that people no longer post about my hp fics on platforms like tiktok where the algorithm could send it out onto anyone's fyp, and that request is also in my pinned faq. keeping my hp fic as contained as possible to only people who are already engaging with hp fic is one way that i try to mitigate any harm that might be caused by my fics contributing to hp's ongoing popularity.
the other ways i try to mitigate potential harm are by actively discouraging people from giving any financial support to hp + jkr and by being very vocal about my politics on this page, so that anyone who is following me will be getting pro-trans and anti-gender essentialism politics along with any hp engagement. i also don't engage with hp uncritically; i am specifically critical of the shitty politics in the books both in my posts on this blog and my fics themselves. i don't make it a secret that i think the books are politically rotten all the way down through to the foundations.
none of this is to say that there's, like...a Right Way to engage with this content or a set of rules that, if followed, Absolve All Shittiness. this is just an explanation of the personal evaluations i've had to weigh when it comes to deciding how i'm going to interact with content that is fundamentally opposed to my own politics. and again, i don't blame people who think that any amount of engagement is morally untenable and completely block it out. this is a growing source of cognitive dissonance in my own life, and i'm increasingly considering whether/for how much longer i want to continue to write fic + be involved in hp fandom. but for the time being, i'm still here + still writing fic, and i guess my feeling is that any harm that fic causes is a drop in the bucket, and even if i were to stop writing it wouldn't necessarily have a huge impact either way. i'm just some random guy online like everyone else; even though i talk about politics, that doesn't mean that i'm asking to be held up as some sort of moral standard, nor do i think anyone should be expected to be 100% politically perfect in every action they take--like, for me, writing hp fic kind of falls into the same category as like...eating mcdonalds even though i think factory farming is fucked, or buying + wearing makeup sometimes even though i think the beauty industry is fundamentally corrupt, or paying to see the new guardians of the galaxy movie in theaters even though i think marvel movies are us military propaganda. i don't think "no ethical consumption under capitalism" is an excuse to completely abandon any attempt to mitigate the harm our actions might cause, but it does matter to me the way in which someone is engaging with a fundamentally broken/corrupt piece of media beyond simply whether or not they're engaging at all. at the end of the day, it's up to everyone on their own to evaluate where they draw the line on hp, and i am not looking to make that judgment for anybody else considering that my own thoughts + feeling about it are still changing.

Once Bitten....: Chapter 1
Hello! I'm Pastel, a Sasaki to Miyano fanfic writer. You can find me on AO3 under namelesspastel. This is the first chapter of one of my (personal) favorite stories I've written. Enjoy!!
In this world, vampires exist. No, they donât exist like they do in the movies or in fiction, but they are real.
Itâs been found that via modern science that rather than being bitten or something along those lines, vampires are actually just humans that go through a genetic mutation in the womb. Whatever mutation that is, causes vampirism; the need to drink blood to survive, a slow aging rate making them seem almost immortal, sensitivity to sunlight and heightened physical and mental abilities. Pure-blood vampires always need to drink blood directly from a living being in order to survive.
There are two ways vampires come to exist; a vampire is born between two vampires and a vampire is born between two humans â the baby have mutated before birth. These vampires are considered pure-blood vampires, and the older the vampire linage, the more pure they are considered.
The other way vampires come into existence is by a human and a vampire having a child. The child has about 50/50 chance of becoming a human or vampire, the with the first stages showing in young childhood â approximately around three to four years old. The child will typically show one of the following signs: a need for blood, heightened sensitivity to sunlight, or remarkable athletic and academic prowess. If any of those appear, thereâs a good chance the child is a half vampire, a dahmpire, a creature that can live off of both human food and blood.
Some dahmpires need more food than blood and some need more blood than food. Some can take in blood packs, some need it directly from the source. They might not be as athletic or as smart as a pure-blood but they typically do better than humans. They also arenât as sensitive to the sun as pure-bloods. But no vampiric person is a morning bird.
There are some cases â very, very few â in which a person with a human parent and a vampire parent doesnât awaken in the early stages of childhood and rather, awakens in the early to late stages of adolescenceâŠ.
My name is Yoshikazu Miyano, Iâm a third year in middle school and I just got my first craving for blood.
***
I knew that there was a chance I could become a vampire â my father is one after all â but having gone through all of primary and almost all of junior high without a single inkling of wanting blood or any of the other signs (aside from being a night owl but I am a teen in junior high, thatâs normal), I thought I was in the clear.
But all that came crashing down when one of my classmates cut themselves on some paper. It wasnât a serious wound, but did it bleed. And all I could think about was how it would taste.
Needless to say, I freaked out and went home early that day. Despite my parents best efforts, Iâve been stuck in my room since. That happened at the beginning of July. Itâs almost September now and I still havenât stepped foot in my school.
I spent my time reading manga and surfing the net. While I was idly looking through some blogs, I came across one that had a band I recognized from a drama I had watched recently. The blog itself was simple, it wasnât very eye-catching and to be honest, the person running the blog didnât seem that interested in posting daily, but their posts when they did make them really showed just how much they enjoyed music and the bands they were writing about.
Working up my courage after a few weeks of checking the blog out, I made an account and posted a comment. It hadnât been anything serious, just a simple comment saying how I had come across the band myself. I hadnât expected a response and yet, within an hour of me posting that comment, I got an email saying there had been a reply. I was curious and checked and found that the owner themselves had responded to my comment. They had responded enthusiastically about the drama and asked if I had heard any of their other works. And just like that, I started regular contact with the owner of the blog.
We only talked through email, but I did learn a few things. They were my senpai, a year older so a first year in high school. They had started the blog simply because their friends had said they should. Apparently their friends said they needed a hobby and music was something they already liked so it was easy enough. One of the reasons they had replied to my comment was because I was a name they hadnât recognized. Most of the people who left comments were their friends from school who knew about the blog or bots.
I told them about how I had stopped going to school since July and how I was afraid of going back. It was easier to tell a stranger, someone who I couldnât see physically, and get across my true feelings about the matter. I didnât ever bring up the whole dhampire thing though. While vampires were accepted in society as just commonplace, I was still struggling with the fact that I was one now. I played it off as simply a form of anxiety, which in a way it was.
Hmm⊠that does sound tough. I get that though. It can be hard to return after making a scene like that. Kinda like a you missed your moment kinda thing. Did you talk to the person from school? Get their opinion on it?
No⊠I never thought to reach out. I was just so freaked out, I hadnât even thought about what my reaction was like to themâŠ
Were you close?
Hmm⊠I wouldnât say we were close but they sat next to me in class. We talked sometimes. They were in the art club and asked me to model for them a few times. I turned them down, though.
Ooh? Could I actually be talking a beauty this whole time without knowing it?
No comment.
ww donât worry about it, Iâm kidding. Anyway, since you stopped going to school, Iâm assuming that means you arenât thinking about high school?
⊠I donât know. I mean⊠I do want to go to high school but⊠what if the same thing happens again? What if someone gets hurt and I freak out again? Iâm scared I wonât be able to stop myselfâŠ
Well, I canât tell you not to worry about it. But maybe it might be good? A change of pace. A different school with a different set of people. If you pick one thatâs kinda far away, thereâs a chance that people from your school wonât even go there. Or maybe you can pick one of those all one gender schools? That way even if you did run into someone, at least youâd know youâd be on the same level.
âHuhâŠâ I said softly, reading senpaiâs message. I hadnât thought of that. An all boys school a bit far away⊠there was one that Iâd had my eye on. It was about three stations away, and also allowed students to live in dorms. If need be, I thought I could ask my parents to let me stay in the dorm but with my awakening the whole idea of high school had been thrown out the window. But maybe they were right. A change of pace might be a good idea after all.
âBut can I even get into high school anymoreâŠ?â I pondered aloud. My grades had been good enough before I stopped going to school but I wasnât sure if I could keep up now. âHmm⊠I wonder if this awakening would help me with that⊠but if Iâm serious about this I should probablyââ I was cut off by a knock at my door.
âYoshi-kun?â My mom called, slowly opening the door and peeking inside. âDo you have a moment?â
âSure. Whatâs going on, mom?â I asked, closing my laptop and focusing on her. She nodded and came in, sitting on my bed beside me.
âWell, your father and I have been discussing some things⊠do you still want to go to high school? Or would you rather just stop at middle school? As long as you have your compulsory education, it should be fine butâŠâ She paused and took a breath before giving me a soft smile. âSorry, I didnât mean for that to come off like I was a pressuring you.â
I shook my head. It was fine, I knew my extended absence from school was probably causing my parents a lot of stress, even if they did understand what was going on.
âAnyway, weâve been discussing things like I said and we came across some schools that are specifically for vampires. While you might only be a half, I donât see why they wouldnât let you in. Your grades from before were a little on the low side for this type of school but if you attend cram school, I think youâll just about make itâŠâ She said, shuffling some papers she had in her hands. I hadnât noticed them before and a quick glance told me that they were brochures.
âActually mom⊠Iâve been thinking about it andâŠâ
***
Senpai! Sorry I havenât been responding lately. Things have been a bit hectic. Thanks to your advice, I talked to my parents and decided to go to high school! For now, Iâm just going to attend cram school â kind of as a way to play catch up and see where I am. Depending on how that goes though, I think I might actually return to school. Iâm still kind of scared if Iâm being honest...
Hey! Long time no speak! Thatâs great about you moving forward, Iâm glad I could help, even though I donât think I did much ww as for the whole returning back to school thing⊠I think itâs really brave of you. Really. From what you said, that moment was really scary for you but it seems like youâre doing better now. I think if itâs you, youâll be able to do it. Actually, I donât think, I know.
⊠thank you, Senpai. For everything up until now. Um, Iâm going to be busy now but is it okay if I still message you from time to time? It⊠it really helps.
Of course! Message me whenever you feel like. It can be about anything. I really enjoy our little chats.
If you enjoyed that (or if it just caught your interest at all), feel free to read the rest here!

Who is Frost?
CoD x Original Character Call of Duty: Modern Warfare IIÂ
Context: This is like an AU type deal. I have never played CoD, Iâve only watched the MW2 cutscenes but I am obsessed and I simp for these characters. So, I made an OC for it :). This is that OC (most of his details are mentioned throughout future fics etc etc, so heâs a bit of a mystery on purpose).
A/N: I know this is an x male reader blog, but I just wanna show you my OC (âcause I love him)
đ«female-aligned people DNIđ«
â--
Who is Frost?
Callsign: Frost
(Real) Name: [He does not tell people his real name unless he can trust them because he wants to protect his family]
Age: 30
Pronouns: He/him
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Gay
Parents: English father, Japanese mother.
Personality: Sarcastic, extroverted, confident, sassy, a bit of a rule-breaker, chaotic in a sort of immature, childish way, fierce, fiery, headstrong, determined, strategic, intelligent, insecure at times, impulsive, value others' lives above his own, has anger issues, gets agitated easily, and sometimes irritable, talks back to superiors and doesnât care about consequences.
More: He earned the name âFrostâ in the cage because he has a reputation for being cold and ruthless. Itâs ironic since he is actually a very warm person by nature. Heâs tall and buff and looks intimidating, but it is actually not that scary when you get to know him. Heâs not a giant teddy bear or a gentle giant, by any means, heâs too rough for that. He wears a somewhat Japanese-styled shirt thatâs cut like a tank top, just so he can show off his tattoos. People think heâs just a himbo, but thatâs wrong, he may be fun-loving but heâs not short of intelligent. People are quick to judge him, which he finds annoying, but he proves that heâs more than what they think every time. He learned how to use a sword and other martial art techniques as a child from his grandfather and through the years, he developed those skills and joined the army, cage fighting on the side.
-----
How did Frost join 141?
Frost earned money by fighting at a semi-illegal cage fight ring.
(I say âsemiâ, because while the facility and the fighters arenât committing a criminal offence, the people betting are.)
At the time, Price had heard about Frost from Laswell, his past training and his skills.
However, Price wanted to see the man for himself.
So, Price went out to find this âFrostâ guy.Â
Price approached him at a bar (this barâs basement was where the cage fighting was held) after the fights were over for the night.
Frost was confused about who he was and what Price wanted with him.
Price realised the bar was still full and itâs kind of awkward to ask someone âHey! Youâre soldier material, wanna join my fuckinâ special task force?â
Like no one does that.
So, what Price did was write the address of the base on a piece of paper and give it to Frost and straight up left with little to no introduction or explanation.
It went like this: - Price: âNice fighting.â
- Frost: âThanks.â
- Price: âMy name is Captain Price of Task Force 141.â
- Frost: â... Oooookaaay???â
- Price: âMeet me here tomorrow morning.â *Hands note over*
- Frost: â... Alright, but why-â
- Price: *Walking out of the bar*
- Frost: *?????*
Frost was beyond confused at this point. Like alright, fuckinâ weirdo.
But after looking at the note, he realised it was a base of some kind.
Being the curious bugger he is, he decided that heâd go check it out.
--
So the next morning, he got up, drove to the address and was stopped at the gate by a couple of soldiers.
Unsure of what to do from here, he just showed them the note he had been handed.
- Frost: âIâm here to see a Captain Price?â
- Guard: âHe gave this to you?â - Frost: âLook, man. I know youâre sceptical and shit, but honestly, I have no idea why Iâm here either so likeâŠâ
When finally inside, Frost got out of the car and just kinda stood there, waiting for someone to show him to Price.
He met up with Price and was shown around the base
He then met the rest of the 141 team and they all exchanged introductions
Frost was asked about his past career and was asked to demonstrate his technique and stuff like that.
Frost did so, not really questioning it.Â
When asked which kind of gun he preferred using, Frost just went: - âUh⊠Katanas??â
Confusion ensues as people realise this man was mainly trained in the martial arts rather than shooty shooty pew pews.
Price asked if he could show them his sweet sweet Katana skills, so mans ran back to his car and got out his little Katana carrier box. Why he keeps it in his car, no one will ever know, heâs weird like that.
Demonstrate skill and blah blah blah, they all think heâs cool now.
Price takes Frost to his lil office thing and sits him down, explaining why he was there and who everyone was and what they were doing there.
Offers Frost a place on the team, praising his skill and saying what a good addition he would be.
Frost considers this offer for a good solid⊠5 seconds before being like: - âHell yea, dude, Iâll do it. Get paid better too.â
Price does not appreciate the name âdudeâ.
Frost apologises but sorta just laughs it off quietly.
Tells him to go pack his stuff so he can move onto the base.
Frost does that.
The rest is history.
-----
So, yeah, that's who Frost is. If you have questions, please send them in, I love answering :)

âif you have any thoughts :>
Plot Ideas. | Accepting. | @evoblue
I'd be lying if I said I had a rock-solid idea for a plot, but I've got pieces for a potential plot beyond "he ran into her while traveling" or a thread like that.
If we wanted to do that, it'd be as easy as her visiting Canalave while she's in Sinnoh for the Lunar Festival event, since that's both where Chris docks his ship and basically where he lives most of the time. Might not work so well, 'cause I'm not participating in that whole thing.
The real plot is under the "read more" because it's just a lot of me throwing idea fragments out there.
If we wanted to count that first thread we had on your archived blog as Blue and Chris meeting for the first time, that might open the door for a little digging on her part if she was so inclined. Let's say he seemed familiar to her for some reason.
Chris used to frequent the Battle Chateau during his Kalos-travelling days, albeit under a false last name, having earned the title of Duke and boasting a 30+ win streak that only ended when he stopped going, putting him just below her status as Grand Dutchess. It'd make sense for the Battle Chateau to keep records of its most prolific guests. It'd make sense for someone like Blue to see those records.
So let's say she went through those records and saw the photos that go with them, only to find his old record. He looks pretty close to the guy she ran into in Galar, has the same duffle bag, also has a Chimchar, and a paper trail she could follow back to him. After all, the only information he lied about was his last name, not anything else.
As for a reason why she'd do that... that, I don't know. Maybe she was curious because, when those records were made, there was a thirteen-year-old kid in Kalos with a Regigigas. I'm totally open to other ideas though.

hi! i hope you remember me from back when you were still bmt haha. anyways, i was wondering if you've seen "do revenge"? if you have, and as a member of gen z, i am curious of what you thought about it and would like to hear your thoughts.
Hu @pauls-mccharmly of course I remember you! I changed my blog's name to enter a more diversified stage of blogging, but I still know some of the regular people in my likes and comments. Nice to see you here!
I did watch Do Revenge. It was ok, I had more fun than I expected. I wasn't interested in it, although that scene of Sophie Turner screaming about how she's not doing cocaine almost got to me. But I ended playing it on Netflix out of boredom one day so there's that. It's another one of those tongue in cheek, Gen Z, Netflix flicks that people forget after 2 weeks. That's not ok. And it's not like the film is incredibly bad or it feels like a complete waste of time. But there's nothing that really sticks.
Do Revenge was a really mild version of female rage that boils down to exposing secrets through social media. Which is indeed a reflection of most of what we're dealing nowadays in real life, but it feels like a recipe at this point. The comparison with Glenn Close's character in Fatal Attraction falls flat because not one of those girls were anywhere near that. It's like in The Idol where Jocelyn was watching Basic Instinct which to me backfired as it only showed how completely devoid of eroticism were the sex scenes in the show compared to the movie they were referencing. I mean, if we're making allusions to some classic 80s and 90s erotic thrillers, it better be worth it. But it's usually not cause that genre is long gone.
Do Revenge also sticks as some morally correct Gen Z feminism by ultimately making it into a fight against patriarchy. Nothing wrong with that. But it was made in such a way to overshadow the evil and bitchiness the female characters had in them before that. By the end of the movie, they all become friends again and oh, how nice everything is. To me, it felt like in order to send a message, they sacrificed the characters being multi-dimensional. It went from rage to female friendship against misogyny. Cool. I'll probably find the same theme in a dozen more other films.
Anyway, there's this film Bottoms that it's being released now. I'm not sure if it's any similar, but from the trailer it looks like it's set in high school as well and the protagonists look like some fun dumb girls? Hahaha. I'll probably check that out too.

I know you didnât reblog an âask me about my characterâ meme or anything but Iâm curiousâ-how did you get into Skrulls? What caught your fascination? How long have you had your characters and what gave you your ideas? How have they changed since their original conception? No need to answer if you donât want, I know Iâm probably asking for a novel here!
Flicks cigarette out the got damned window.
Definitely don't think it'll be... a 'novel'. It's gonna be KINDA long, but definitely not 'read more' long. I hope. I wrote this part first, no idea how this is gonna end and I'm not going back to edit this.
Fourteen years ago I think in... June? So fourteern years ago, two months from now, I was living my best life! I was- fourteen? Fourteen, going to school, hating myself, etc. etc. All the hits. All the good ones, all the big ones. And then one day my Grandma came by and was like 'C'MON! We're going out to get Chinese!'
Yadda yadda yadda, we finish eating, step outside. Storefront right next to the Takeout? Comic Book Shop! (Which was closed down when I went back to see it on vacation. Friend told me it closed down a few years ago too. Damn. Anyway!)
Go inside, I'm looking around, I'm looking around. Pick up a Spawn Issue, grab a Batman comic, think it was New 52, might've been Court of Owls, don't really remember, and the- !!! Oh, what's this? Who's this- this green alien man glaring at me? Marvel Omnibus for an Event? Holy shit I've never had an Event OMNIBUS before, this sounds awesome! Who the- What's... What's the 'Secret Invasion'?
And that was fucking it. I read the WHOLE thing that day, all the tie ins included. I went on the internet started looking these little green bitches up. What's their beef? I remember them from Marvel Ultimate Alliance, but- I mean the Super Skrull was just a top-down bitch for me to bully in that game, I didn't respect him! But after reading about their war? Their gods, their struggles, them getting their asses WHIPPED by Norman Osborn?! (Shout out Norman, I see you killing Veranke! Love you, bubbe!)
About a week after I got through the Omnibus I was HOOKED. I was all fucking in, chief. I was ABOUT IT. I can't tell you WHAT it was about the Skrulls that made me sit up and pay attention. Can't tell you what line of dialogue, or what issue, what fucking writer?
My favorite part of Secret Invasion wasn't even the Skrulls! It was T'Challa defeating the Skrull Invasion of Wakanda by his fucking self. HE had the best line in that whole event.
Warskrull Hybrid with Beta Ray Bill, Bullseye, Elektra and Wolverine's powers: You can not defeat me. I have been trained my entire life specifically to kill you.
T'Challa, walking up ready to get to it: Then you have already lost. For I have trained my entire life to defeat the unknown.
WHAT!??! YOU CAN JUST SAY THAT!? TO AN INVADING ARMY THAT HAS SOLDIERS MADE UP OF LIKE... SEVEN OF EARTH'S GREATEST THREATS! AT A TIME!? AND HE WON TOO! He killed the invading force and wrote 'SKRULLS STAY OUT OF WAKANDA' IN SKRULL BLOOD ON THE ROYAL TOWER FOR ALL TO SEE.
Fuck the Skrulls, I want more of THAT from T'Challa!
Anyway, digressing a bit, I have no idea. Truly. I hate Veranke, can't stand her, and she was the only real 'named' Skrull in the event. Kly'bn and S'lgurt's words got repeated a lot, but they were really only there to get fucked up and set in motion some NEXT cosmic event for readers not to give a shit about.
My favorite Skrull in the whole event sort of... disappeared in the middle of an issue and then never reappeared again in canon. Or if he did, I have no idea cause he wasn't in the rest of the event and he's not on any MCU cast lists yet so?
I made the FIRST iteration of the Cosmic Skrull blog in 2015. The first post on that blog was on September 29th, 2015 and it was a picture of a toolbox, because Ana'Hira wasn't supposed to be a GODDESS, or an INFILTRATION EXPERT, she was supposed to be The Mechanic!
She was supposed to be a Sage / Reverse Forge character. She could see something, break it down with her cosmic awareness, understand it perfectly, and then recreate, create specs for it, etc. etc. The original story was:
Eat all her siblings, combine their Power Cosmic with hers, and escape the Crunch.
Get caught by SWORD in a Post-Invasion Climate, be tortured by Abigail Brand personally, get turned into an asset for Earth.
Get broken out of the Peak by the Guardians of the Galaxy. Go DEEP into Space, avoid the empire and their bullshit, live life as a merc!
Had to scrap or rearrange a lot of that for this version of the blog. Cut out all the story parts that had to do with writers I'm no longer writing with and adjust things to account for how powerful Ana'Hira's become in years past.
Making Angela & Beatrice Ana'Hira's daughters instead of her 'identities' is me taking the old iterations of this blog, the characterizations and story beats and compressing them into characters that can still exist and be thrown around, without them being T H E driving forces of the cosmic plot, or whatever that means.
8 years worth of changes, growths, downfalls, regressions. It's a lot! The girlies have been through a lot. Ana'Hira's Primary Terran Disguise used to be a White Woman! I think THAT'S honestly the biggest change.
Going from This
To this
I love her just as much as I used to... but I actively hate her now too. Make of that what you will.

user lqfiles i have no idea what to call you.
see saying "hello tumblr user lqfiles" sounds ominous and it's giving sigma... god i hate that word. i have beef with the gen alpha slang, everytime i hear a reel with "what the sigma" i grow a little closer to throwing that toaster right into the bathtub. ANYWAYS, my point is that i'm going to figure out how to come up with a nickname for you. it'll come, eventually trust. i'll think of one okay. something to do with l & q idk. unless there's something else you want me to call you? ALSO NOOO IM NOT RICH. đđ as i mentioned before i bought like... 3x the amount of pcs i OWNED BEFORE i went on a buying spree. so all i had was just the pcs i collected from albums that were gifts from friends... (i never thought it a good idea to spend money on this stuff for myself.) I was actually traveling abroad which was why i hadn't checked in for a bit, and the prices... were just so much cheaper!! So I decided, why not? fuck it we ball! (my life motto to everything at this point...) and i'm in a decent financially stable point in my life where i can indulge in this stuff, so i bought quite a bit... i tried to focus on buying pcs... cause storing albums in my suitcase makes it a lot heavier.
i definitely have a hand kink its not a joke anymore. IT REMINDED ME OF THIS IMAGE (idk if it's going to work if it doesn't uh.... ignore! cause i've never sent links on anon and tumblr hates making things easier for us.) https://postimg.cc/1gWC0B48 AND IDK IF YOU CAN SEE IT BUT ITS SO FUNNY I COULDNT STOP LAUGHING. they're both me
i also have no idea who louis partridge is BUT HOLY FUCKING SHIT I JUST LOOKED HIM UP AND GOD DAMN. like my taste in men is obviously questionable, and like most people i did have a thing for andrew garfield and theo james... but i think i often find myself crushing on east asians half of the time, mostly because i am eastern asian myself, and it's not like on purpose cause i do find other races hot, it's just the way i grew up finding famiiarity in those faces? does that make sense idk im yapping at this point.
ALSO THE SMAU IS SO FUNNY IM CAUGHT UP NOW.... HAECHAN LITERALLY GOING THROUGH ALL STAGES OF GRIEF. HE WANTS HER SO BAD BUT ALSO THE COMPLAIN ABOUT THE WHOLE PINTREST BROWSING.... LIKE HES SO REAL AND CUTE AT THE SAME TIME I LOVE HIM. (chatgpt is too real AND THE FACT THAT y/n IS EATING IT UP IS SO FUNNY LIKE I WOULD'VE ALREADY BEEN LIKE.... why does this sound like it's written by ai...) holy fuck that's a lot i ranted a lot anyways hello, look forward to the next chapter. love you and hope u have a great day TUMBLR USER LQFILES - đ€
hejdhskdj sometimes iâm tempted to put my name back in my about me so you guys can put a name to my account but then i remember how donât wanna be perceived THAT much and rethink #SOZZZZ idk maybe iâll come up with a new alias that you can start addressing me by, tho if youâre curious you can figure my name out if you find my main blog and check my tags đ
youâre gonna hate me omgg bc except for the word sigma (cos that cringe) i unfortunately love brainrot content atm⊠like yess give me the skibidi toilet rizz party, give me the ohio fanum tax, GIVE ME RHE MAXIMUM AURA đ
đ the effect of living with little boys..
FUXK IF WE BALL IS SUCH AN AMAZING LIFE MOTTO like exactly.. we are ballin.. anyways you not spending any money yourself on albums is sending me lmaooo but at least you were able to use the money you had saved to buy yourself some cheeky pcs. tbh i think pcs are the only appealing part for most part when buying an album anyways so itâs a good thing that you didnât buy albums lmaooo
THE IMAGE IS SHOWING LMAOOOO i love this pic so bad ughhh he has such nice hands i wish i could hold his hands and play with them.. the perfect mix between girly dainty hands and manly veiny like I WANXTHU SO BAD HAECHAN
MOST PEOPLE MUST NOT INLCUDE ME⊠but tbh i donât think i have a specific race i like in men, THO IM IN MY ARABIC BOYS ERA RN⊠idk if anyone knows slushynoobz but hamza.. i wantchu saaaur bad like GIVE ME THE YEMENI BOY.. also i donât think itâs weird to prefer your own people!!! its something a lot of cultures have too so donât worry about it youâre not yapping, my mum is the same đ
LOLLLL HAECHAN EXPERIENCES THE LOSS OF HIS UNOFFICIAL GF he was probably with his head in his hands when she didnât respond to his apex request. and ntm he tweaked the letter a bit to make it more personalised!!! a bit of ai here and there but still personal!!!!
I LOVE YOU TOOO COWBOY ANON!!!

hey actually fuck whatever everyone else wants i wanna talk about The Post asdkakhsdsa this is gonna be kinda long and i'm so fucking sorry
so for context to anyone who follows me who DOESN'T know about it The Post is this post that someone made where they took screenshots of me replying to someone in the notes of another post
and i wanna talk about it! partly cause it was super fucking funny that this even happened and i haven't been able to stop thinking about it but also maybe anyone who comes to my blog because they were curious about who i am can check this post out and get proper context to everything
before i keep going i wanna get a few things out of the way real quick in no particular order:
not that i think that anyone following me would do this but don't bother the OP- i know who he is i've reblogged his posts before i have a general vibe of who he is so i know that he wasn't necessarily posting it for the sake of like. anyone harassing me can't speak for whether or not that applies to the other person but i would assume not).
going along with that when i first found out about The Post it had less than 1k but i could tell it was gonna really rack up those notes really really fast and i had to very quickly make peace with the fact that 1. statistically speaking at least one person was gonna see it and not think of me as the Good Guy in the situation/were also gonna consider me just as much of a weird obnoxious idiot or whatever and 2. that as most viral tumblr posts do it was gonna reach out of bounds at some point- all that being said no one so far has went out of their way to bother me and i genuinely appreciate it! peace and love on planet earth. :)
MY ICON ISN'T DEKU. IT'S NOT FUCKING DEKU. I'VE NEVER HAD A DEKU ICON AND I NEVER WILL. MY ICON IS MY SAD WET PATHETIC BEARD RYUKI KURUTO. IT'S NOT MY PROBLEM THAT YOU BITCHES SEE A MAN WITH SHAGGY DARK HAIR AND JUST IMMEDIATELY ASSUME IT'S DEKU. GO PLAY AI: THE SOMNIUM FILES NIRVANA INITIATIVE ON STEAM/PS4/PS5 RIGHT NOW. đ«đ
with all that said here's the background behind what happened: late March i was going through someone's blog and came across this post:
(the main reason i wanna show the post that this all happened on is because without any context and just going off of what this person said people assumed that they were being weirdly transphobic which isn't the case! they were actually being weirdly homophobic! but also if that had actually been the case it still would've panned out the same way. i said what i said and i stand by it.)
posts like these are some of my favorite posts on here because 9/10 there're people in the replies/comments just leaving the most absolutely shit takes you ever seen and i've made a habit of going into them to look out for those people and block them which is what i was doing when i saw that person's reply- the truth is that i honestly didn't intend to reply with what i said! what i was gonna reply was actually wayyyyyyyy dumber: because they were being specifically homophobic my dyke ass was gonna spin what they said into an "hey just so you know i fucked your mom lol" comeback. because i'm 5.
obviously that didn't happen; i had spent a weird chunk of time trying to actually construct my reply multiple times and NONE of them were coming out in a way that made sense and sounded actually funny to me. and the more time i spent trying to construct it the more time i had to actually sit with and reread and take in what this person said. and after a certain point i got to a stage that i usually get with people like ter/fs where i say to myself "oh my God what is this person's fucking problem" and just like i always do when i'm at that point with anyone else i decided that before i finally just block them and move on i wanna go on their blog and see what they're about- this usually ends up in me seeing that their posts are just basically the same shit opinions that i just saw; other times it's stuff like hypersexual fanart of anime schoolgirls occasionally broken up with posts talking about how sad and lonely they are (bidoof's law in full effect); but other than a post they made where they used the r slur while talking about them being pissed off over tumblr's pikaman posts that you can never get rid of i honestly wasn't finding anything . . . until i got to this ask that they posted, which i directly quote in my reply to them:
(i'm not linking it because like. fuck this person. but i'm still slightly conflicted about giving anyone a direct link to just do whatever they feel like doing to them. if anyone asks i'll either add a link or give it to them directly but for now whether you wanna take my word on this screenshot being unedited or not is 100% up to anyone reading this. i won't be mad if you don't believe me.)
i found this post pretty easily; this person as far as i can tell isn't very active on here so there actually weren't a lot of posts that i had to scroll through to get here- i'd say it was maybe like 5 minutes max. not even. and i bring this up because some people assumed that i was searching up specific keywords to collect evidence or whatever which. to be 100% fair! is something that i do when i'm trying to sus out whether someone that i come across is actively or cryptically homophobic or transmisogynistic or neo-fascist/alt-right. when it comes to anyone else i genuinely don't have anywhere near enough of an interest to actually do this. not to mention that tumblr's search function barely works and i have genuinely no idea if it'll actually bring anything up if you try to search nsfw terms specifically since the whole porn ban happened.
and it mean that's basically it! for anyone reading this who wants to know why i replied to them: they annoyed me and i have the freedom to fire back at them for better or for worse.
for anyone who wants to know why i chose that ask specifically: other than the fact that it was just the first heinous posts of theirs that i saw? adults (which i assume this person is) who are weirdly sexual about minors fictional or not weird me the fuck out and i don't stand by that shit. especially people who brag about it even jokingly. again: i said what i said.
for anyone who wants to know why i worded my reply the way i did: because i thought it would be funny. like come on. i sounded like the world's worst Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney prosecutor. someone tagged that post with "what in the Better Call Saul . . ." and it was so fucking funny. had me cry laughing.
for anyone who wants to know if i'm surprised that someone posted my reply to this person and why: firstly yea i kinda was! secondly much like how you don't realize how much noise you're making in your own home because you forgot that after a certain point people outside can hear you until you like. have the police showing up with a noise complaint. i too in the moment completely forgot that tumblr is, in fact, a completely public website and that people can see what you say even if it's completely by chance. i was so committed to my own stupid little bit that i honestly wasn't even thinking about it. what's done is done tho there's nothing i can do about it at this point.
uhhhhhhh i don't know how to actually end this post . . . um stay healthy and safe! remember to eat good food and drink water! if you haven't indulged yourself in a hobby in a while you should go do that! maybe listen to a long video essay on a topic you've never consumed any information on while you do chores and learn something new! think on the last time you told people important to you that you love and appreciate them and then go do that! mwah mwah.
hey i've had a long day and like it's whatever but my head feels so fucking full can i like. talk about The Post? can i talk about The Post and just get it out cause i kinda wanna talk about it. lmao

Honestly Animatronic DJMM deserves a whole lot more love than he gets from this fandom. Human designs are fun but you gotta appreciate the source material too dang it. I just wanna kiss his big nose and hold his giant hand and I'd be happy. I know you share the sentiment
People who donât like og DJMM are cowards đ€đ€đ€đ€đ„đ„đ„đ„
Like if you like human djmm but not true giant enemy spider djmm? You arenât a djmm fan smhhhhhhh how can you NOT love the giant bb mans- he is everything and more you could need in a giant enemy spider robot-
Also? Only fucking thing (besides that one thing cough spoilers I shouldnât worry about spoilers but friend goes through my blog and hasnât finished cough) that was sleeping when they were supposed to- making him a true certified good boy (at least to moonâs standards)
(Cw small rant MCHFHHDDJ)
LIKE SHID DUDE-
His part of the game was probably one of the most tense parts of the game (not saying a lot tbh the game lacks a bunch of shit) with the giant mans fucking spooking the shit out of you reaching his fucking H A N D into the fucking bathroom and crawling up the walls like a fucking cool ass sPIDER that he IS- and his music? Fucking b a n g e r- really sets the mood and the tension- some real mission impossible shit right there m8- plus the fUCKING HEAD TILLLLLTSSSSS GODDDD ITS ADORABLE- a giant man with small curious gestures- and then stops giving a shit about chasing Greg and just vibes on his lil stage
But back on point- Yeah- what the fard- I go and look for anything djmm related and there is basically zero- nada- majority of it being human version and though at least the human versions gives him more attention-? Itâs more so for sex appeal and being hot- (Iâm guilty of it I cannot lie LMAO- but iv been drawing more biblically accurate dj cause I absolutely adore this mans smh) there is barely ANYTHING about him and itâs sad. Heâs more so seen as a meme than a character-Â
Fanfics with him in it is mostly just him showing up for maybe a paragraph or two and just leaving- rarely giving him any love and acknowledgement from the fandom as a whole and itâs sad. The other day I went to shop for any djmm merch anyone was makin so I can get me some of that sweet sweet giant enemy spider pride shit- and majority of merch was just sun and moon (donât get me wrong- absolutely adore sun and moon- but DAMN they are the biggest attraction-) and itâs like sHIT- I COULD ONLY FIND LIKE- AT MOST 5 THINGS FOR DJ smhhhh
Long story short, dj is criminally underrated, and Iâm going to speak to my (non existent) lawyers about it (and cry)
#my bread and butter#fnaf moon#djmm#dj music man#also yes I want to hold his giant hands and boop his big ass nose and call him my scrunkliest of scrimblos#but I CANT#So the next best thing is to make another character do it fOR ME#Aka moon lmAO#doing what a man like me cannot smh#plus their ship as robots is really cute I usually see people portray him as a gentle giant and Iâm fucking eating that up like hot cakes

Hi! I'm new to ur blog, but I wanted to say ur an excellent writer, I really enjoy the way u write peaky's characters đ I just got an idea and wanted to request an imagine. U know how throughout the show we see that basically all women fall for Tom Shelby without him even trying? đ And I can't help but wonder what it would be like if the situation was reversed? I don't want to limit ur imagination, so I'm not gonna dive deep into his love interest's character. But a few things that I want to add are that maybe in the beginning he was chasing her out of feeling that she was like a challenge? And she knows what he and his fam do for a living plus what he's like with women and she's just not about flings and one night stands, but she lightly plays with him cause she's a lil minx. And he tries so hard to the point when they slowly getting to know each other and he realizes that he starts to develop real feelings for her beyond lust? And she's also like shit I better stay away from him cause I might fall for him. Hard. So they both try to stay away from each other at this point, thankfully she works in London so it's easier for both of them. And after that I really don't know how they gonna end up together đ
OH! Maybe Polly sets them up?? I just adore this woman so bad đ„ș she was wary about their relationship at first and watched them like a hawk from distance (how they interact with each other, how that woman is with Charles, if she would be able to share dangerous life that they all live and etc) And our aunt Polly approves them đ and basically like THESE FREAKING KIDS! I'MMA TAKE EVERYTHING IN MY HANDS and save Shelby boys (one in particular) as usual. Thank u for reading through this and I would feel really blessed if you will find that idea interesting enough for you to write â€
This was such a cute idea. I hope I did it justice!!!
Thank you!!! That's so sweet of you! I'm happy that you enjoy my blog and like the way I write! Really, that's a huge compliment, especially as I have been feeling self-conscious about it.
XOXO
Warnings: Sad times, drinking, trust issues, one big drama, but happy and cute fluff.
Love was a dangerous game at the best of times. It was even more so in the world of gangsters, and thatâs exactly what Thomas Shelby was.
You had a thriving business which left no shortage of suitors chasing after you. Youâd known the price of such games early on in life and your lack of interest only made you a person of greater interest.
You first met Thomas at a gala in London. He spent the whole night chasing you around the room with that cold icy gaze. Men would normally give up, but he treated you as if you were the main attraction at the event. Eventually he offered to buy you a drink, which you were too curious to turn down. Why was a Romani gangster at such an event?
He looked so unimpressed with everything, but not you. He enjoyed the way you flirted with him, and kept him on his toes. Most men didn't like that about you, you didn't hold back your opinions.
A night of flirting never hurt anyone, right?
You regretted that moment more than ever right now. You sat, still in your bed clothes looking out at the cold gray sky. You took another sip of wine, and closed your eyes.
He didn't chase you, but you didn't think he went into doing business with you because he thought it was a profitable idea either. Business was always conducted in nicest restaurants in London, you always left him breathless at the door to your apartment.
Waiting for the day he would give up. You weren't interested in being a play thing, you knew how Thomas was with women. He was so charming in his own standoffish way, but you knew that he only liked you because you didn't bend and fall all over him. You demanded respect wherever you went, a small empire at your feet. He liked the challenge, he didn't like you. And you didn't like being used for a night and tossed aside.
You poured the last of the bottle into the glass and sighed. This was pathetic, and yet it was all you could bring yourself to do.
He didn't give up, and kept coming to London to help out. You had a little bit of trouble with a rival gang, things were getting out of hand so you requested for his men to help. Shortly after the death threats increased so he offered to stay the night till everything had blown over. Standing there in the hallway he looked too good to say no to. Maybe you and him had a friendship that demanded more than a cheap fling. He certainly did more than expected to help you out that night.
So you let him in. Spent the night talking, laughing, reminiscing. These were the types of conversations that made women fall in love, and you were playing right into his hands. Soon the threat was over and he was on the way. You promised to cook for him next time he was in London, saying you preferred his company when away from the public eye.
âIâd really like that.â heâd said, a smile ghosting on his lips.
âAnd I really like you.â Youâd whispered, enjoying the way he took a step closer to you. The way his hands felt against the soft skin of your cheeks. The way he looked down into your eyes like you were something amazing. Heâd kissed you softly, electricity blooming through your body. Soft and sweet, and yet it left you burning. Desperate after so many years without a kind touch.
âSleep well, loveâ Heâd said softly before heading down the hallway before you could say anything.
Even now your body was aching and vibrating from the memory.
You were in Birmingham for business and decided to take him for dinner, surprise him. Heâd never let you win a round like that though, instead heâd taken you home to meet his family.
You and Ada got together in London fairly often and enjoyed each other's company, but youâd never met the others. They were beyond strange, but they were so warm. You felt yourself start to melt in their presence. It was loud and your ribs hurt from laughing, children would take turns sitting on your lap as the night went on.
Youâd really believed heâd done that to see if youâd get along with them if he pursued you.
You sipped at your glass, wishing the heat on your skin would warm the coldness inside you. Tears started to slide down your cheeks. Why were you this stupid? You promised you would never put yourself out there into the hands of a man again. How many more times would you end up broken before you learned your lesson?
Yesterday had started out with nothing out of the ordinary, you met up with Ada for tea. She wanted advice on something and you were excited to hear about the gossip, hoping sheâd found herself someone nice. In passing she mentioned some barmaid named Grace. Stating sheâd caught Tommyâs eye, how things looked serious.
You tried to behave yourself despite the wave of jealousy crashing down on you.
You gritted your teeth, saying you suddenly felt ill. You went home, holding yourself together tightly before slamming the door to your bedroom and falling to pieces.
After a long night of crying over past loves and the current pain and realization that Tommy had more of your heart than you thought was possible. It was morning, and you were a bottle of wine deep watching the British rain fall onto the street. At least it happened now, you could come back from one kiss. Just had to keep your distance. The wine sloshed in your stomach as you embraced the courage it gave you to pick up the phone.
âShelbyâ Her voice ran out and you felt slightly comforted that it was Polly.
âPolly! Iâm just calling in about a change to the current arrangement.â
âAh, itâs always a delight to hear from you, love. Even when itâs just business. So what can we do for you?â She responded warmly.
âWell, I was hoping that moving forward I could do business with you exclusively.â Your heart wrenched up but you knew this was the best way forward.
âWhat has he done, eh?â
âNothing, just donât want his girlfriend to get the wrong idea.â The words slipped out easily despite not being a part of the things you had scripted. You couldn't resist the urge to say it, hopefully she would relay it back to him, let him know youâd caught him. That heâd lost the little game you were playing.
âAlright, well I look forward to visiting you darling.â Her voice had a touch of sadness to it.
âLikewise. Talk soonâ The line went dead and a weight lifted from you. Unfortunately the sadness stayed crashing in your stomach like stormy waves against a cliff.
You didn't see a reason to go into the office so you opened another bottle and decided to cook some breakfast.
____________________________
Polly leaned back in her office chair taking a long drag of her cigarette. Men and their bloody cocks. Completely useless and somehow always up to their eyebrows in trouble.
She wasnât sure of you at first. You wore too much lipstick, and your perfume was expensive. Take away the dress, you'd be a pin up girl. Much too glamorous for a small heath family of gypsy's. But she couldn't have been more wrong, somehow youâd embraced the family. They were not an easy group to settle into and yet you did it like youâd been raised the same.
Johnâs kids hung off of you the whole night and youâd simply embraced them tightly listening to their fumbling tales. You could play cards, handle your whiskey, and Thomas looked at you like you were a stained glass portrait of a saint. A light source somehow shining through your skin radiating a sense of magic and hope. You lit him up in a way Polly had never seen before.
And heâd gone and chased her out? Over who?
John moved past the door to her office.
âOi!â She snapped her fingers and he poked his head in.
âWot?â
âTommy seeing anyone?â She asked.
âEh, heâs got something going on with that dame in London, I swear it. Sheâs a bloody catch. But thereâs something going on with the barmaid I think.â
âThe barmaid?â Polly wanted to put a bullet in his head.
âDon't think it's like that though.â He crossed his arms and thought for a moment. âArthur thinks sheâs up to something. I figured he was just getting to the bottom of it.â He shrugged.
âIdiot. Why didnât he speak to me?â She got up and took her coat from the hanger.
There was only one way to put an end to this.
_______
Fuck sakes. He sat there at the same spot at the table heâd been sitting since he was knee high. His aunt yelling at him just the same as she always had.
How did you find out about Grace? Only person in the family you spoke to regularly besides him and Polly, was Ada. He quickly got up from the table and grabbed the phone.
âWhat did you say to her about Grace?â He asked quickly.
âWell I mentioned that sheâd caught your eye. That's all, thought maybe itâd make her a bit jealous, sheâd finally make a move.â Tommy swore and slammed the receiver down. Polly started up again.
âLook!â He waited till she was staring him down. âIâm not seeing Grace. Iâm flirting with her to figure out who sheâs working for. Ada told her something was going on thinking sheâd get jealous and stop dragging her feet.â
âFuckâ
âFuck is right! Sheâs not like that Poll. Bad stuff happened to her, sheâs not - Itâs complicated. I thought she was coming around too.â He slammed his hand on the table.
Ada thought you were coy, waiting for a good time to make a move, see what you could get out of him first. Tommy could see you more clearly than that, you were too jumpy and avoidant of men and any relationships. Business oriented is what youâd called it, but there was too much hunger and pain in you for that to be all it was.
âWell. Go!â Polly snapped her fingers.
âGo where?â
âGo to her. Fall to her feet, explain everything. Fucking fix it. Iâm handling Grace as of now.â
âWe both know she wonât have it.â He said sadly.
âIâll call her just go.â There was an unusual softness in her eyes and made him give in. It was a stupid idea, but you were worth looking foolish over.
_______________________
Youâd fallen asleep after eating an impossible amount of pancakes. You stretched and hated the way your head was pounding from all the wine. The phone rang and you moved across the floor slowly.
âHello?â You answered by trying to untangle the cord.
âLove, Itâs Polly. Now I have a favor to ask, woman to woman.â She sounded abnormally serious, your heart twisted a little bit.
âOf course, whatâs happened?â
âAda phoned and I figure the girlfriend you spoke of was Grace. See Tommy is keeping an eye on her for me, sheâs a black cat. I just need to figure out who sent her, you must understand how things in business get at times.â
You paused before answering. Would she lie for him? They were family, but Polly wasn't the type of woman to be involved in such petty things.
âAh, and misunderstanding then.â your throat closed, this was an unexpected twist that opened a door you weren't sure you wanted to go through.
âCompletely darling. I sent him over to talk over resuming business.â
Your heart started to race. Fuck, you needed a bath, your hair was a mess, and your head was still pounding. You mentally slapped yourself, you didn't need to do anything except come up with a solid reason to leave him at the door. This whole thing was a reminder of what's involved when being in a relationship with someone.
âOh, when should I expect him?â You slapped your hand against your forehead.
âWithin the hour, love. If thereâs any problems, give me a call.â
âI will thank youâ you answered shakily.
âHave a good night.â There was a coy tone to her voice before the line went dead.
Fuck. an hour? You looked around your apartment and quickly started rushing around. You tossed the wine bottles into the oven along with the pan you used to make pancakes with. After wiping down the counter, you started running a bath. Not waiting for it to fill up you climbed in, running a brush through your hair aggressively. Youâd just finished washing when there was a knock at the door.
Your heart started to pound, your face incredibly hot. Fuck, fuck, fuck. You thought as you tripped over things, closing your robe.
What you should have done was told him to wait. Gone back into your bathroom, and done your hair and make up, no sense in opening the door in this state. But you couldn't stop your fumbling body from swinging the door open.
And you did. He stood there looking down at you and your unmade appearance.
Now what? Are you going to throw yourself at him? Itâs all you're dressed for. You thought silently cursing your choices.
âSorry, I thought I had more time.â You whispered, watching the way his eyes devoured you.
âShould show up early more often then.â He said with a genuine smile. He made all the muscles in your body taught, it was hard to breathe.
âWould you like to come in?â You asked, wishing there was less space between the two of you. You stepped aside for him to come in. You shut the door slowly, trying to sort yourself out before turning around. But the look on his face silenced every voice of protest in your mind. He looked so open, and sad.
âLook, about what Ada said, It wasn't -â he shook his head and somehow you believed him. He shifted awkwardly "She's got something on us I just donât kn-â
You flung yourself at him, and his arms wrapped around your waist tightly. You pressed your lips to his and enjoyed the way your body melted against his. He quickly took control of the kiss, pushing it further than last time. His hand held you in place, his tongue sliding into your mouth causing you to moan. He broke the kiss pressing his forehead against yours.
âIâm Sorry.â He said softly, your heart exploding at the fact he would value you enough to apologize despite things obviously being forgiven.
âMe too.â You whispered.
âYou're mine then?â He asked in a low tone that made your legs shake. You nodded looking up at him through your eyelashes.
âIâm yoursâ

Hiii, could i have a request for how the gang members would react to meeting a historian or explorer in the wild?? thank you! I love your blogs sm!!
anon ily <3333 i went wayy overboard with these but i regret nothing bc this was soo cute and fun to write. I hope u enjoy and i made it gn for everyone. I only did the VDL boys for this but if enough ppl like it i might do the girls with something similar idk yet?
Dutch Van Der Linde
Dutch first laid eyes on you when you were hanging off the edge of a cliff after slipping when you got too close to the edge. He immediately ran over to you, helping you off the cliff and getting you settled back on your feet.
He seemed genuinely concerned and agreed to help you safely record the rock carving that was on the side of the cliff face, keeping you from falling.
You were a historian and had been studying these mysterious rock carvings after meeting an equally mysterious man, Francis Sinclair.
You didnât see much of Dutch Van Der Linde after that until you ran into him again in Saint Denis in the saloon. He remembered who you were instantly and started up a conversation about your work where you chatted away for hours.
You became very close after that and he often accompanied you to Museums and fancy fundraisers that you were invited to.
Heâd always get dressed up and complimented your finer outfits which was such a difference to the field gear youâd have on. Youâd spend all night chatting away over nice champagne and dancing together before actually engaging with other guests but you didnât have a care in the world with Dutch in your life.
Arthur Morgan
Arthur finds you standing in the middle of a field, flipping over rocks and staring numbly at what appeared to be a map in your hands.
When he approached you he soon learnt you were a young amateur explorer about to get your big break with a treasure hunt but you couldnât find the gold bars for the life of you.
Arthur gave you a heart warming smile and held up a gold bar after retrieving it from his satchel having felt a little bad that heâd discovered it not a week before you.
The two of you laughed about it, calling yourself a fool for trying to find it for so long when it was clearly missingâ the thought that someone took it clearly never crossed your mind.
Arthur was always a gentleman however and promised to make it up to you. After taking you to dinner and getting to know him better, you spent the next few days camping out and finding a new treasure together.
You travelled through caves and through valleys of flowers to find this treasure. Sometimes it was so beautiful that the two of you just stopped by a stream to let your horses rest and enjoy the scenery.
When you finally found the treasure you gave Arthur a big hug in excitement which caught him by surprised but he happily returned. He let you keep the treasure and wished you luck with more exploring but of course that wasnât the last time you saw Arthur again.
Charles Smith
Charles meets you one day while youâre out surveying wildlife. You specialised in conservation, wanting to study and protect animal species.
Fresh out of the university from Saint Denis youâd been dying to get out of the confining city and explore the heartlands. Thatâs where a kind gentleman named Charles Smith had offered to protect you and show you around the herds of bison youâd taken to studying.
You spent days together riding the over the hills and following the herd as they travelled. While you were Charles told you all about his family and the respect and love they have for the beautiful creatures.
It was amazing the array of knowledge Charles knew about bison and you couldnât stop the smile on your face as he told you about the characteristics of the bison. You rushed to take notes in your journal, knowing that all that he told you would help you study and protect these animals.
âDo you think itâll actually do any good? The work youâre doing?â
âOne can only hope Mr.Smith but I will do everything in my ability to protect such beautiful creatures.â
Even when you had to return to the city for study you constantly wrote to Charles, staying in touch and keeping him updated with all your work. It was hard to say goodbye to someone youâd grown close to but you made regular visits to each other long after that.
John Marston
You first found John in the saloon after a long day at work, in desperate need of a drink. Being a zoologist you instantly noticed the scars on his face and wouldâve guessed a wolf was the animal that caused the damage.
The two of you instantly started up a conversation and shared all kinds of stories. He told you about being up on the mountain while you showed him the scar on your arm from your run in with a cougar.
You were collecting a compendium of all the animals across the heartlands and during the months you worked on it, you ran into John more than once.
He was always curious about your work and you often spent time together in the afternoon sun, showing him the animals youâd found so far.
âWhat about the stray dogs in town or do you only deal with cougars and wolves?â
âWell theyâre animals too arenât they not?â
Even though you couldnât see John all the time, he often came along with you to see the wildlife and covered you when you were around particularly dangerous animals and you enjoyed every second you had with him.
Micah Bell
When Micah met you he had absolutely no idea what you were on about. In his mind the whole idea of a palaeontologist is ridiculous and made up, much less the fact that you chose to read books and study in your spare time.
At first he doesnât do anything but mock your work but after running into you time and time again he finally started to come around.
He grew more and more curious when he saw the drawings in your sketch books of dinosaurs and even more so when he laid eyes on the fossils. But knowing Micah, heâs still incredibly stubborn.
âAinât no way that thing is real.â
âOne needs an open mind to comprehend whatâs prehistoric Mr.Bell. It requires a certain practice.â
Every so often on your work youâd run into Micah whoâd be riding around on his horse, just passing by. By now youâd consider him a friend and your face lit up as he pulled a small ammonite fossil from his bag.
It wasnât really your area of expertise but you could tell he wanted to impress you and seemed almost nervous as you examined the fossil. Nonetheless you could tell it was real and you let him keep the small fossil as a reminder of you until the next time you saw him.
Javier Escuella
Javier meets you when youâre down my the docks, trying to capture the sunlight and noticed him fishing.
Not wanting to disturb him you kept out of his hair until you heard him cheer loudly at a catch he managed to pull in. In your particular interest in animals, you couldnât help but ask if you could take a photo of the fish heâd caught.
From then on the two of you became friends, often running into each other as you tried to capture landscapes and wildlife.
Youâd always spend the day together and youâd show him how to use a camera while he showed you how to fish and play the guitar.
When you spent time apart youâd often write to each other to fill the gap. Youâd always send pictures with little writing on the back of them while he sent you poems and songs that he wrote for you, promising to play them for you next time youâd meet.
In your personal journal you have the first picture you ever took of Javier, kept safe between the pages. Heâs standing along the docks, facing the away from the water as he holds up a large sturgeon and a large smile.
You and Javier always stay in touch and after he told you of his chaotic and dangerous time in guarma he made light of it by telling you about all the different wildlife he saw while he was there.
Bill Williamson
Bill stumbles upon you in the wild by accident. Heâs out scouting a lead when he ended up getting lost through the shrubbery and found you examining flowers closely.
When you told him you were a botanist he looked as if youâd just spoken a different language to him because he didnât have a clue as to what that meant. Bill always made you laugh fondly at the confused look when you told him all the scientific names of flowers.
In Billâs mind, a flower was a flower. There was purple flowers and blue flowers and even red ones but they didnât have their own names.
The next time Bill ran into you he brought you what he thought was a bouquet of white flowers. Instead they were actually a species of weed that was poisonous when eaten but it didnât stop you from smiling and hugging him which was the intended purpose.
In light of that incident Bill was actually curious about some plants, trying to learn about them more. When Bill went exploring with you he pointed out some of his favourites and you picked a few to put them in the brim of his hat for him to take him back to camp.
When you run into him again Bill tries to give you another flower, this time actually understanding the plant heâd picked was a Vanilla Flower Orchid or the Vanilla planifolia but he never learnt how to pronounce it unlike you.
With a high blush Bill placed the flower behind your ear and you pulled him into a hug, being careful not to crush the beautiful flower.

Hi my lovely friend! I have another request if thatâs ok, please and thank youâ€ïžâ€ïžHow about from teaching ideas- âHow do you spell it?â With either Bucky and reader or even Bucky and Steve (either is totally fine) and you can add an AU if you like! Could be like college AU or something or regular! Yay! Thank you! Hugs and loveâ€ïž
Canât Take My Eyes off of You
Pairing: Bucky Barnes x Reader (College AU!)
Summary: Youâve been infatuated with a boy in your class for quite some time. This time all the seats are taken and heâs sitting next to you, making it harder for you to concentrate on the lesson. Bucky asks for help with spelling, not that he really needs it but itâs an excuse to hear your voice.
Word count: 1,625
Authorâs Notes: My sweetie pie @jobean12-blog â€ïž I canât thank you enough for being so incredibly kind and sending me requests đ„ș they make me truly so happy and Iâm so honoured to write something for you! Hugs to you my beautiful friend â€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïž
Warnings: Fluff, crushes, Bucky is a little sassy towards the Professor, Professor Wilson, mild language (one or two words of fuck), crushes to lovers implied.
If it was under any other circumstances, you would be positive that it was the heatwave outside that caused you to sweat profusely and your clothes to stick to your skin. You would blame it on the sun that was far too hot combined with the speed walk you did across campus just so you wouldnât miss your class. You would blame it on any other reason apart from the true reason as to why you were currently sitting in your seat with your heart pounding out of your chest, covered in sweat with your hands shaking and unable to grip your pen.
And the real reason wasnât because of the summer heatwave, the sun or the unbearable and sticky humidity. Your current state is all because of one boy; A top A student in all of his classes, a boy who makes all the girls and even some of the boys swoon just because of his existence. A boy, who loves his leather jackets - even in the scorching heatwave - likes to keep his hair tied back into a bun or low ponytail. A boy who loves to wear his dark jeans and dogtags. An almost 19 year old boy named Bucky Barnes, who you also happen to have a very big crush on. The same boy who was currently sitting right next to you because he was late to class and all the other seats were taken.
This lesson wouldnât be easy. You were just so infatuated by him. Everything Bucky did fascinated you and you often found yourself staring at him in a dreamlike state when the two of you had the same classes. Watching the way he would roll his toothpick between his teeth, the way he would hold his pen and letting the tip of it glide smoothly across the paper to write down notes. The way he would swing back dangerously in his chair only to be told off by Professor Wilson because, âboy, you could swing back so much your head would crack against my floor and Iâm not cleaning it up. Sit properly!â
Bucky even smelled so good, like soo soo good. A sandalwood scent mixed with sweat and something else permeated the dusty air around you that tickled your nostrils that you were sure you would be smelling for days. Not that you would ever complain about that. Being this close to him was a once in a lifetime opportunity and you would make the most of it.
âY/N?â His voice rang through your ears, snapping you out of your current thoughts. His voice was deep for a college boy, his blue eyes watching you carefully.
You cleared your throat and shifted awkwardly in your chair. Your damp clothes from the sweat squeaked against the hard plastic, causing your cheeks to heat up in embarrassment. If Bucky heard, he didnât comment on it. That was the other thing you liked about him. Bucky was mostly polite, unless you crossed him, in which his ex-girlfriend caused a scene in the cafeteria one time and Bucky came prepared with his colourful language. They had been having problems for quite some time according to his other friend, Wanda who filled you in on all the gossip. âI- yes?â You stuttered, shaking your head as though it might just shake your nerves away.
âI said, can I borrow a pen? I gave mine to Steve who is currently holding it hostageâŠâ he chuckled nervously, scratching the back of his neck. Wait, why was he nervous?
You nodded and pulled a spare black pen from your pencil case. From your observations, you learned he loved to write in black ink only and thatâs what you gave him with shaky hands, you pushed it towards him and smiled.
âThanks, doll! I owe you one!â He smirked, plucking the toothpick from his mouth and licking his plump pink lips.
Oh Jesus Christ.
You knew this would be impossible. Everything Professor Wilson was teaching right now went right over your head. You just knew it was something something about dinosaurs. No information was registering and trying to concentrate just wasnât going to happen. Not when your crush was right next to you, anyway. The veins in his hands were prominent and the temptation was strong to run your fingertips over the lines. His other hand was moving quickly as he jotted down notes, already halfway down the page. You blinked and stared down at your blank page. Your mind refusing to soak in whatâs being taught and your hand refusing to lift your pen and write. Something would be better than nothing, you tell yourself but youâre nervous. Bucky is more interesting than the lesson.
Bucky stops writing for a few seconds to look at you. He frowns, curious if something is going on because from his own observations he knows this is one of your favourite lessons and youâre always keeping up.
Bucky leans in, his breath fanning against the shell of your ear sends a shiver down your spine. âAre you okay?â He smiles, his shirt too tight for his body, you notice.
You nod and smile awkwardly. âYeah, Iâm fine, just finding it difficult to catch up this time.â You sigh, your racing heart still pounding in your chest. The room feels much hotter than it was when you first arrived, even with the air conditioning cranked up.
âOkay, doll. Just checking.â He smirked and started to swing back on his chair as the professor started the second half of his lesson.
Professor Wilson walked around with his hands behind his back as he talked about fossils and mammals that existed almost 169 million years ago. âMr Barnes! Put your legs on the ground in this instance!â Professor Wilson lectured him and shot him a stern warning look.
âThey are on the ground.â Bucky sassed back, rolling his eyes and earning giggles from girls a couple of desks away. Professor Wilson sighed and shook his head.
âIf you fall and crack your head I-â
âYeah, yeah. You wonât clean it up, I know.â Bucky dismissed Professor Wilsonâs worries with a wave of his hand and started to take notes once again as soon as the professor carried on with his lesson.
âAnd the Tuojiangosaurus was found in China 157 million years ago. It was known to be 7.0m in length and weighed a hefty 1500kg.â Professor Wilson brought up slides of what the dinosaur would have looked like.
âWhat a fuckinâ beast.â Bucky murmured under his breath, âhow do you spell whatever he just said?â
A breathy laugh escapes you and you scratch an itch on your nose. âUh so, TUOJIANGOSAURUS.â You spelled out for him slowly.
âThanks doll. I thought you werenât paying attention to the lesson.â He teases, a sly smirk on his face.
âI remembered the spelling from my spelling bee test.â You grow shy under his now intense and impressive stare.
âWell, he should have these in big letters on the board.â He scoffed and you giggled.
âHe⊠doesâŠâ you point to writing under the pictures, the names of the dinosaurs in big black bold letters. A shade of pink dusts Buckyâs cheeks and he dips his head with a smile.
âI know, I just like hearing your voice. You sound really sweet. Sâlike music to mâears.â
Oh my goodness. This couldnât be happening, right?
âOh I uh- really?â You stammered, mesmerised by his homely blue eyes.
âReally doll, Iâve wanted to ask you-â
âBarnes! Since youâre distracted. Tell the class about the Triceratops. Weâre waiting.â Professor Wilson stands in front of your desk, his arms folded over his chest and his foot taps impatiently against the tiled floor. All eyes are on Bucky as he sighs and subtly rolls his eyes under his eyelids.
âThe- whatever you just said is a horny dinosaur with teeth.â
âCorrection. He has a horny beak.â
âThatâs what I said.â
âPlease elaborate next time Barnes.â Professor Wilson shakes his head and his eyes narrow on your blank page. âMiss y/l/n? Why have you not been taking notes?!â
Your voice was lost, what could you tell him? That you were too busy watching your crush and not paying attention?
âSheâs not feeling well and she can copy my notes. Sâno big deal.â Bucky spoke and you felt so relieved. Professor Wilson seemed to be satisfied with that answer and went back to finish up his lesson.
âThank you.â You leaned in and whispered, sighing when things didnât feel any better for you. Your heart rate was still out of control and youâre pretty sure there might be a damp spot on your seat.
âItâs okay, doll face. You can copy my notes and be my study buddy in the library if you want to.â
If you want to? Of course you want to!
âYes- Iâd like that!â You smiled and pulled your lip between your teeth. âWhat were you going to say earlier? Before Professor Wilson interrupted?â
Buckyâs cheeks turned from a light shade of pink to a crimson red. He chuckled quietly and nervously.
âYouâll say no!â He chuckled, his eyes darting from your eyes to your lips.
âTry me.â You challenge, mimicking his movements with your eyes.
âIâll tell you when weâre at the library. Deal?â He winks, and shushes you as he writes down his final notes, catching the slight nod of your head.
Your mind went into a frenzy. All it took was for all the seats to be taken and for Bucky to sit next to you this once to escalate things. You wished he was late sooner. What was he going to say to you earlier? You couldnât wait to find out as you sunk back in your chair with the biggest smile on your face, feeling like the happiest person in the world.

HELLO! I saw you were a new blog that needed requests and I was wondering if you could write head-canons for todoroki, bakugou, and kiri (separately) with a s/o that has a witchcraft quirk? TY
well hi! thank you for the request, it was so cool to write! now iâm assuming you mean like a quirk that works like potions and herbs/crystals and spirit summoning and spells which is the road iâm taking i hope thatâs okay?
now this boy is
excited
when he first saw the mist swirling around your fingers as you fought the robots in the UA exam, a shock went through his body
what was that?Â
okay he didnât mean to stare- considering he was in the middle of an exam- but the way you moved and the glints of a crystals around your body was just so cool
time passed and he got closer to you, during the dorm competition your room was the only room he wanted to see and boy did he love it
the green ivy and plants in your room, the pots and white smoke curling from diffusers and shelves full of powder and inks organised in a neat row
your room felt like a whole new world- like magic
literally after everyone had left he was still in your room looking around like a meerkat assessing itâs surroundings
fast forward; you guys are dating and he was VERY curious as to how your quirk worked, and you explained how your spells and energy came from the crystals and jewels
each crystal gave you a different energy, which converted to your power!
kirishima literally watched in awe as you pointed at all the different coloured gems and jewels and the symbols on your walls
he even asked to touch some of them and asked where you got them
he also asked to see them in battle, and asked if you had any similar to his own quirk!
the both of you engaged in LOTS of different mock battles, which almost always ended up in a play fight rather than real training- just because he ends up enjoying watching you use your quirk too much to actually focus
once you two had engaged in a long, breathless make out session against one of the walls- what can I say? you wanted to see what it felt like to kiss kirishima in his red riot form and have him melt back to normal under your touch
yeahh...it was a bad idea to do that in the school gym, where half of class 1-B caught you two mushed together against a wall
back to the hc!
he asks SO many questions
sometimes just sits on your bed for ages and asks one after the other after the other, to the point where aizawa has to come and send him back to his side of the dorm
let me tell you now: if you are 1) planning to get anything or 2) NEED anything, donât let him find out
you once let it slip that you were considering getting pouches to carry these crystals, and the sweet, sweet boy went out and bought BUCKETS of bags
yes buckets because he didnât know if your crystals would be affected by material or size of the bag or- god forbid what if it did and he ruined your quirk in battle?!Â
heâd never forgive himself.
ever.
like literally heâd be on his knees ready for punishment of how you saw fit because of his mistake
what can i say? the boys dramatic
but its endearing :,)
it ended up being the cutest date of you cuddled up on his bed wrapped in his blankets like you were drowning in them,
whilst he sat on the floor, presenting each little bag and pouch to you, all teleshopping style.
âand THIS đ€© gorgeous article comes with not just 1đ±! not just 2 đ±! but THREE đ€Żđ„”đ„łïżœïżœïżœ buttons to clip close to ensure a tight, secure hold of your đ special packageâ
yeah he made a sleazy face
yeah you threw a plushy at him
all of them were bought with your costume in mind and how could you not keep some of the bags? with kirishima watching you with the biggest eyes and slightly-pouting-lips-but-he-would-never-admit-it there was no way you didnât keep the most useful ones
you asked him to return the extra bags so he wouldnât have wasted his money, whilst you repaid his kindness with lots and lots of kisses and cuddles
;) or more depending on how you want it
todoroki is uhh...
emotionally constipated
but thats not his fault
#fuckendeavour
sometimes it comes off that heâs not interested in your quirk in a general sense, but itâs only because he doesnât know how to ask without seeming pushy
he gets shy (but doesnât show it) but with time that decreases to a sort of dry affection
iâm not saying heâs a dry boyfriend but he definitely isn't as spritely as someone like Denki might be
the way youâd see that he wanted to know more was if he asked you to come and fight with him, train with him and study
this is where he asked about your quirk
he didnât ask to the extent of kirishima, who said everything that came to mind, he asked precise questions that gave him all the information he was desperate to know because you are so cool it makes his heart burn needed
and he also knew you would add more information as you explained, which he loved because he loved hearing you talk so passionately
this time your quirk allowed you to control people to an extent, depending on different plants and herbs you used
the plants each had a special line, muttered as you dropped the herbs anywhere on your opponent for it to activate
best believe todoroki asked for one to knock endeavour out, literally out of nowheređ
once, one night you had been laying on your bed, and todoroki had popped over to see you. it was still quite early on in your relationship so you werenât expecting him to cuddle up beside you and tuck into your smaller body, chin hooked onto your shoulder whilst his eyes bore into yours from below todoroki loves eye contact
âDo your plants have meanings?â
thatâs it, thatâs all he softly whispered in your ear
âWhat do you mean?â You whispered back
âLike...like roses mean love...do your herbs have a meaning linked to what they do?â
okay now he was blushing, very gently because he didnât want to annoy you, or ask you a question youâd never thought of and make you feel silly or insecure about his quirk
YOU on the other hand were smothering a dopey grin. you knew your boyfriend and his boundaries, and you knew that him asking you in such an intimate setting meant he was trying hard for you
you also knew that heâd just given you free reign to ramble however you saw fit
so you explained, how each herb did this, how if you mixed them they did that, if you made a liquid infused with them it helped with your application in battle and so much more
todoroki listened silently, but his eyes were gleaming
literally glowing in the darkness- I mean was that even possible? it had to have been considering how todoroki looked at you that night
after you were done, he replied with a similar thing about his own quirk, and both of you had a long long chat that went from quirks, to schooling, to life, to aliens and more
todoroki had the weirdest humour, he never knew he was being funny until your quiet giggles morphed into full blown laughter- and caused a knock from the next room over because you were being too loud
he would let out his own little chuckles and smirks, seeing you enjoy his company so much
it was a while after that day when something new happened
youâd sent him a message, whilst he was sitting right next to you, and your contact name flashed on his screen suddenly, catching your eye
âmy calendulaâ
you looked at todoroki
todoroki looked at you
you both blinked
âcalendula?â you asked
âyesâ todoroki replied
âwhy calendula?â
âbecause,â todoroki blushed deeply, eyes flickering away from yours
âbecause you said calendula means joy...youâre my joy. arent you?â
and god help anyone who tries to say you arenât todorokiâs joy
because you would literally throw them to the ground
your heart soared at how todoroki loved you and your quirk so much
even though it wasnât blatantly obvious, it was the little things he did for you đ
he originally going to call you his basil until Bakugou came round behind him asking him if he was writing the dorms grocery list. safe to say that plan was aborted immediately :D
oho
sorry I just
*pfft*
bakugo amuses me, he really does heâs so entertaining
okay sorry back to the headcanon
I headcanon youâre REALLY strong
like STUPID strong
Remember bakugos reactions to all the students quirks and he was like âshit I cant beat them đšâ
And his reaction to todoroki? yeah heâd literally see you use your quirk and just
no Iâm joking
but I feel like as your s/o heâd be super obsessed with your quirk
heâd always want to train with you, heâd see it as an amazing part of you that he wants to help hone so you can be the best of the best
not better than him obviously but the best anyway
not that heâd SHOW all of this awe and pride to you, itâs normally delivered in a bunch of bakugo sentences:
âoi your form is shit. do this instead.â
that means heâs realised a new way you can throw this punch, with much more force
âtch, go train. you need the training.â
he wants to train with you. again.
â....finally. took you long enough to learn that.â
youâve just done something successfully and heâs trying so hard not to blush at how well you did it.
here your power is more destructive
you can create sigils using a your finger in the air and they create attack power
this with bakugos quirk makes a formidable duo, and if he doesnât get partnered with you he will most likely throw a fit
but not a long fit more of a like âoi why is she over there we work better togetherâ
but he realises as heroes you need to work well with anyone you meet, so heâs not too fussy
because of the fact that you draw the sigils, you have a habit of tracing out patterns and new symbols and any sort of designs subconsciously
this is done normally on any part of your skin, with a pen
bakugo being old man bakugo đ got mad at you
he told you off for almost giving yourself ink poisoning and ruining your hand and making it all dirty drama queen
but throughout all of this bakugo had been clutching your hand, and best believe he wasnât letting go
he used the hand he was holding to pull you along and sit comfortably, dropping his own palm into your lap and mumbling something that kind of, sort of, might have been along the lines of âuse my arm dumbassâ
now you had bakugos arm to scribble on to your hearts content.
you used this when you were stressed, worried that your nerves were causing you to forget things or simply because you wanted to hold bakugo close
in fact, bakugo himself had adopted this habit, and youâll notice I said arm instead of hand
bakugo got nervous around you, and therefore sweaty, which therefore lead to tiny little explosions in his palms when you were near
but this habit had started to make him feel comfortable with his hands around you, it made him trust himself more
he knew his power was strong and he didnât want to hurt you, your quirk was something that helped him with that
and he wouldnât tell you that but he was grateful. VERY grateful
he once asked why you used pen, and not your finger on your skin considering the pen ink is toxic
you answered very quickly, by pulling out a sheet of people and sliding your finger across the surface in a sigil shape
promptly the paper burnt into a cinder :)
and bakugo never asked again
and that is the end! I hope you liked it and I did the idea of Witchcraft justice đ
please do send some more requests!
god I loved this so much theyâre all so cute :,) thank you for this request!!

once upon a flight
Draco X Reader (post war)
Summary: The Wizarding World earnestly searched for the newly discovered Heir of Gryffindor. After many failed attempts at the claim, McGonagall almost gives up hope, but sends off one final letter. Draco looking for a reason to clear his name has an ulterior motive to find you... that is until he meets you.Â
A/n: So, as promised, an Anastasia AU that is frankly one of my favorite things in a while. For all intents and purposes Snape isnât dead because this is my blog and my word is law. Also, this is about 10k words... so youâre welcome.
Long ago, Hogwarts was founded by four great wizards: Godric Gryffindor, Salazar Slytherin, Rowena Ravenclaw, and Helga Hufflepuff. The Slytherin heir was found centuries later in one Tom Riddle who became the greatest Dark Wizard of all time, only to be defeated by the great Harry Potter. Yet, the story of the heirs does not end there. The unfortunate demise of Helena Ravenclaw ended the lineage of the Ravenclaw house for she had no children. The Hufflepuff heir, Cedric Diggory was killed in the war by Voldemort. Only one heir remains, and their whereabouts are unknown to all, but sought after by most. Minerva McGonagall is keen on the discovery of this witch or wizard, the last true heir of Hogwarts, and perhaps the most powerful of them all. Only in the hands of the true heir, will Godricâs mighty sword come alive with magic once more.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
âItâs a girl, raised muggle, in America,â Snape threw down the Daily Prophet. âThis could be your chance,â
âMy chance to what?â Draco huffed, running a hand through his hair before examining the paper. âLike a Slytherins could ever find this Gryffindor heir, let alone in muggle America,â
âBut if you do,â Snape hinted, a smile curling on his lips. âIt might clear your names,â
âWould you give that a rest?â Draco muttered, throwing the newspaper down of a very scared looking American girl. âEven if I do find this girl, why in the world would she trust me?â
âBecause, she might have questions, and who is going to be there with the answers for her?â Snape raised an eyebrow.
Draco pondered the idea, then glanced at your photo in the paper in front of him. And he thought there perhaps might be a chance.
____________________________
âLondon?â I eyed the passport dubiously. âWhat long lost aunt wants me in London? And why did she show up now?â My fingers ran over the long letter explaining everything and nothing.
âDo you want to go or not?â Mrs. Greenwood asked. âBecause Iâve got a lot of girl like you whoâd kill for a chance at a family again.â Her snappy condescending voice wouldnât be missed.
âAlright, alright. Iâm going.â
I zipped my bag closed, folding the letter, and placing it in my bag with the plane ticket and passport. It was a long drive to the airport that was filled with people who all went about their business. I had never felt more lost. I read the letter again as I waited for my plane to arrive. Something proved magical about the parchment and inked letters. A style never used in a modern day. It gave me hope. Or an unsettling sense of dread.
âExcuse me,â His voice was polite and broke through the music of my headphones. It was his accent that caught me off guard. He was a brit.
âYes?â I asked, taking out an earbud.
âYou wouldnât happen to know a Ms. McGonagall, would you? Iâm supposed to be aiding her niece back to London,â I eyed him skeptically.
âIs that so?â I raised an eyebrow. âAlright pretty boy, tell me, what absolute stranger is going to trust a random brit who comes up to her claiming to know the name of someone that he could easily have read off the girlâs letter?â He seemed amused at my skepticism.
âI suppose youâre right,â The stranger didnât seem cornered, however. His caviler didnât waver. âWhat if I told this stranger that hypothetically I knew that her aunt wasnât really her aunt but someone looking for her to be claimed as the heir to a school of magic?â
âWell, hypothetically, Iâd probably laugh and call security,â I eyed the cop, whose gaze caught mine before flashing to the beautiful stranger before me.
âAnd if I proved to her that magic was real? Would this stranger believe me?â Danger lurked in his eyes.
I snorted. âIf you can prove that magic is real, Iâll follow you anywhere buddy,âÂ
âCareful there stranger, youâre promising something you might not want to,â He warned.
âI think I know what I can handle pretty boy,â
Without another word, he took my hand, clasping it in his. Glancing around he slowly raised his hand away from my palm, where a flower began to bud and bloom from nothing, sparking in the fluorescent lighting. I wasnât impressed.
âNice trick, but Iâm not convinced.â
The stranger laughed. âI should have known it would take more to convince you,â He ran a hand through his silvery blond hair, looking around, before his gaze settled back on me. âWhat if I told you that you could do magic?â
âIâd say youâre crazy and were back to calling security,â I went to walk away, I had enough time before my flight that a quick walk wouldnât be the end of the world.
âBut you must have felt it,â His hand reached for mine. âWhen you were younger, and things happened around you that you couldnât explain. A sense that you didnât belong. That you were different. That you could see and feel and do things that others couldnât.â His words were earnest and urgent. I paused.
âAnd if I did?â I didnât face him.
âThat you hear stories of magic and fairytales, and you thought maybe you belonged in them because there was no one quite like you,â My eyes met his, baffled, curious. âAnd you felt it just now, not on the surface of your skin, but in your hand, in your blood, a feeling in your heart that felt right. That felt powerful,â
âOkay, pretty boy, you seem to know a lot about who you think I am, so whatâs your deal?â I folded my arms, still not completely convinced but more than curious.
âI told you, Iâm here to help you get to London in one piece and how to be an heir of magic.â The light in his eyes glinted as if he had won.
âAlright, letâs say hypothetically I believe you, then what?â
âIâd buy you a cup of coffee and weâd try this again?â He raised an eyebrow, nodding to a chain Starbucks that was near dead in the early hours of the morning.
I stared at the chai tea latte that was warming my hands. He didnât say a word. Draco. The beautiful stranger who promised answers. Who looked a bit too good to be true.
âFrom here, I get a letter for an aunt I didnât know that I had, and a plane ticket to London. Then I met you, claiming that you know her and that youâre here to help me. Then you tell me that my aunt really isnât my aunt, and that magic is real and Iâm the heir to some sort of magic school in London? This is a really good way to get kidnapped and never heard from again,â My skepticism grew. He could see that.
âYouâre not wrong,â He leaned onto the table, closer to me. âAnd you wouldnât believe me unless you knew that magic was real.â
âEvery lonely girl dreams of fairytales and magic,â I countered. âIs it so far-fetched to really believe it?â
âBelieving sure,â He gave an easy smile. âBut you can do magic and you know it,âÂ
âHow do you know what I know?â I snapped back.
âI know youâre in denial,â He chuckled. âAnd easy, youâre doing it now, but no one could tell you that you were because itâs subtle and hard to pick up on,â
âIn what way?â I demanded.
âDefense spell,â His smirk started the urge in me to deck him. He was so self-assured, and it drove me insane. What was worse, was that he might be right about everything.
âSure, why not,â My tone fell flat. âOkay pretty boy, how exactly am I using a defense spell?â I leaned back in my chair, unamused.
âNo one in this airport gave you any trouble. A strange man comes up to you and you show signs of distress, and yet no one helps you. Youâre hiding yourself from their point of view. Itâs very self-assured of you to think you can handle yourself,â His explanation made to much sense... again.
âIâm the self-assured one?â I muttered. âAnd sorry to burst your bubble English, but this is America and we all pretty much keep our heads down.â
âAnd yet the second you decided to trust me, the security guard walked the other wayâaway from his post I might add,â His confident smile didnât leave.
âHe... what?â Now I backtracked.
âYou like to be left alone, I can admire that, but you have so much potential and you could do so much more,â
âAnd if I donât want to?â I offered a bit hopeless.
âSure, go be a faceless nobody in the sea of Americans, work a nine to five, and never see adventure or magic again in your life,â He leaned back in his chair, casual. As if what he offered was the option a rational person would choose.
âAnd I should trust you? To take me to London and bring me to this magic school to be an heir or whatever it is you Brits do?â
âYou seem quite offset that Iâm not American,â His amused smile returned.
âForce of habit,â I shrugged, giving a carefree smile that caused indignation to flicker into his eyes.
âWell, you have approximately thirty seconds to decide if you trust me before youâre called to board,â His devious smirk had me reeling to look at the gate and the flight attendant who was ruffling through papers and getting ready to signal boarding groups.
âGod, I hate you,â I muttered, resigned. âFine. Whatever. Life of adventure and magic, sure.â
We boarded and Draco took the seat akin to mine in first class without the bat an of eyelash. My anxiety began to flare again thinking of how easy it was for him to find a place next to me on a full flight to London in the early hours of the morning.
Then there was the matter of flying altogether. I had never been on a plane ride before. And I was about to be on a nine-hour flight with a supposed magician and a promise of adventure. What had I gotten myself into?
âI can hear you worrying.â Draco muttered as the plane left the runway and began to ascend.
âIâve never flown in a plane before in my life. All things considered, I think Iâm allowed to worry,â I snapped.
Draco reached into his bag and held out a small vial filled with an amber liquid.
âHere, take this,â He offered it to me.
âOh, youâve got to be joking,â I snorted. âThere is no way in hell that Iâm taking that.â
âY/n, please,â It was the first time that he had ever used my name. A name I hadnât told him. A name he knew. A name that got my attention and reminded me of the situation that I was in.
âWhat is it?â I took the vail from his nimble fingers.
âAnxiety potion,â He explained calmly. âIt will calm your stress levels and allow you to think clearly,â
âMagic?â I eyed him dubiously.
âA form of it. Your people call it chemistry, but we have access to more ingredients than the causal muggle,â
âMuggle?â I raised an eyebrow, still examining the contents of the small vial.
âPeople who canât do magic nor live with other wizards,â
âWizards,â I mused softly to myself.
The pilot informed the cabin that we had reached cruising altitude and my anxiety came back, overshadowing the tales of wizards and magic and the perfect stranger beside me. Draco could sense that. He let out an aggravated huff and rolled his eyes.
âUse your senses Y/n, you donât know how to control it yet, but you have magic in your blood. Itâs kept you alive and ahead this long. What are they telling you? Not your fears and anxiety, but your heart and head.â His voice was low and urgent, and I had to concentrate to catch all of his words.
âThis isnât another one of yourââ
âY/n,â He pressed, not having it with my second thoughts and doubts. âConcentrate.â
Deciding to trust him, I took a deep breath and closed my eyes. The air around me was artificial and frigid. It made my senses stand keen on edge. It was unnatural to me. I could feel the people as they settled down for the long flight. The pilot shifting and the attendants flitting about. They were all overly ordinary. Like most people I had been surrounded with my entire life.
Then there was Draco beside me. I could feel his warmth, his presence... his aura. Unlike anything I had encountered before. A halo of power and... magic that embraced and clung to the edges of him. It matched the silvery blue of his eyes trailing off into green. I could trust him. But there was a darkness underneath that I couldnât trust. The one that I feared.
Then the vial clasped between my fingers. It held no ill will toward me as I thought of it. It promised to help in words that didnât belong to Draco beside me. Something all of itâs own. All of my own.
Another deep breath out.Â
âOkay,â
âWhat did you gather?â He didnât taunt me, but rather it was genuine curiosity that colored his tone.
âYouâre... different. From the rest of the people on this plane. You... thereâs like... an aura? A feeling but with color? I donât know...â My eyebrows furrowed. âIt told me I can trust you... but thereâs something darker underneath... and Iâm not sure... Iâm not sure I trust that darkness.â
He stared at me, baffled. Not that I had said what I said, but instead what I had said.Â
âThe... the darkness.â He muttered. âI thought...â
âThat you could hide it?â I raised an eyebrow, only half teasing. We all had darkness. I wouldnât hold his against him.
âThat there would be more... the things Iâve done,â He was a burning man before me. I looked down to the vial in my hands. I toyed with it.
âHereâs to new beginnings?â I offered a bit hopeless, breaking the wax seal and downing the contents like a parched man in a desert who comes upon an oasis.
And I understood what he meant. A pack of stress and the ability to think clearly. All of the fogginess that the anxiety induced was gone. I looked at the world around me with new eyes.
âWoah,â I whispered, looking at Draco clearly for the first time.
A smile played at his lips.
âItâs nice, isnât it?â
I nodded and looked out at the grey and blue beneath the plane. Closing the shade, I turned to Draco as much as the first-class seat would allow.
âSo magic?â
âWhere do you want me to start?â He was expecting my question.Â
âThe beginning is a good place,â
âWeâd be here forever,â Draco chuckled. âIâll start at the beginning of what would be your story thoughâ
I marveled at his words. Two worlds divided but always existing beside each other. Sometimes they would intertwine sometimes they would be forgotten. He spoke of being raised in such a negative perspective of muggles and the life I led, putting me on edge until he gave a placid smile and an apology. His tale turned darker with the war that was fought and a hope that was lost and found again.
âPotter,â Dracoâs tone snarled around the name.
âHarry Potter,â I mused. âSo why canât he be the heir of this Gryffindor whoever?â
âLike that would help his ego any,â Draco muttered flatly. âAnd he canât because heâs a half blood. The heirs are pure blood wizards, not a drop of Muggle blood in them,â
âOkay...â my brows knit together. âBut how does that explain me? They told me my mother was... and my father walked out on her. She died giving birth to me,â
âBack in the early days of the first war, I can only assume your parents were against the Dark Lord which gave them their death sentence. Especially if he knew you were the heir of Gryffindor,â
âBut Iâm not dead,â I pointed out.
âSeems that way,â Draco gave me an amused smirk. âThey must not have known you existed. And seeing as you were raised in America, I came see why theyâno one knew. Not until recently anyway.â
âBut how did they find me? How did you find me? How did this letter even find me?âÂ
âWould you accept magic as an answer to those three questions?â Draco tried.
âSure, but Iâm still creeped out,â I folded my arms. âHeir to a school of Magic...â I pondered the words aloud for the first time. âWhat does that even mean? What am I supposed to do with it?â
âWhatever you want,â Draco shrugged.
Our conversation pulled after that into almost nothing. I closed my eyes once more and began to feel the world around me through my newfound sixth sense. It became overwhelming after a few moments but when homing in on Dracoâs presence quelled some of that overstimulation. His aura was calming, as if it were a foreign lullaby to my heart. A lullaby that lulled me to sleep before long.
But a darkness lingered still in my dreams. It was alien. Not what I had seen in Draco and not what I knew was within me. Something else. An evil presence that yearned to be free. To take control. To have power. It wanted me. It was suffocating. It dragged me down. Down. Down. Draco felt further away. The plane, itâs passengers, nothing but specks. The darkness dragged me forward. Red eyes stared me down and a smile full of knifes taunted me.
I struggled back, away from the evilness, trying to break free of the darkness but I was trapped. By back was against a wall. There was no escape.
A flicker of silver caught my attention. Bright and beautiful. A ray of hope. My eyes dared to leave the shadow figure to follow that ray. When I saw it again it because more clear. The wisps of a dragon made of pure light. It did not come for me, rather it showed me the way out.
There was a way out.
I gasped, my eyes fluttering open to see the glow of fluorescent lighting and worried grey eyes.Â
âWhatâthatâwhoââ I sputtered, my heart racing.
âAre you okay?â His genuine concern called to me. I nodded, tears stinging my eyes.
âWhat was that Draco?â
âI donât know,â From his tone I knew that he did not like not knowing. âBut youâre safe now,â The comfort of his arms around me made me believe his words more than I thought I would. âWeâll land in a couple hours, just try to relax,â His tone was soft, something new.
The grey dim of London didnât impress me. I squinted up at the misting rain. Draco took my hand and led me through the maze of the airport, gathering our bags and ushering me toward an empty alley way.
âDraco,â I warned, not enjoying the situation.
âJust hold tight to me and donât touch the edges,â He instructed. âDonât let go of your bag either,â
âWhat? Why?â I broke away from him, to his annoyance.
âCanât you just do what youâre told? No questions asked?â He seemed to be asking the sky more than he was asking me. I gave him a flat look. âItâs magic. Itâs called apperating. Itâs going to feel weird, but you should be fine.â He offered his hand to me again.
âShould be?â
âWe donât have time for this Y/n,â He stressed.
âLike hell we do,â I snapped.
âFine, if youâre not fine then you have total permission to hit me, that make you feel better?â He demanded, insisting that I take his hand.
âNo,â I mumbled, placing my hand in his.
That feeling of power was back when he took out a wandâhis wandâand twirling it, before I could make fun of him, we were whisked away, and I had to remember to hold on. The distorted reality around me was so enticing to touch, as if it were an impressionist painting that replaced with the dingy grey around me. Then it stopped.
âWhere are we?â The scenery changed, still a duller grey, but now in front of a large mansion that I had only seen in movies.
âMalfoy Manor,â Draco said curtly. âCome along,â
Taking a second to recover from the beauty that was all around me, I grabbed my bag and followed him inside where I gasped again. The house looked like something of those fairytales I had always dreamed about.
âAre you coming?â Draco asked promptly.
âI... do you live here!?â I scrambled after him up the stairs with my bag.
âYes,â He didnât understand my amazement. âAre you alright?â
âIâve never been something this... beautiful before,â I turned back to look over the banister at the grand foyer. âYou just... live here?â
âYes,â Now there was a smile playing at his lips. âCome on, weâve still got much to do,âÂ
âThereâs more!?â I followed him up the stairs.
âYou havenât used magic in your entire life, and you think Iâm gonna let you waltz in there scared and unprepared?â Draco snorted opening up a random door. âThis will be your room. We have a couple daysâit wonât be enough time but perhaps I can make you somewhat believable...â
âNo one said anything about having to prove I was the heir!â I argued, again taken back by the lavish room but ultimately was overridden by my anger and fear. âShow up, sure! Maybe take a DNA test! But act like some wizard proteÌgeÌe!?â
âWitch,â He mended softly. âAnd weâve got this under control,âÂ
âWe?â I did not have this under control.
âSnape and I. He will be helping me help you. Thereâs a lot you need to learn. But for now, rest. Dinner is in an hour,â Closing the door he left me to my thoughts.
Sitting on the bed I looked around the room. Anxiety began to creep in my chest again, but not for the reason it had... this morning. Could it still be the same day? Could I have only met Draco a dozen or so hours ago? My thoughts were reeling.
âA witch, an heir,â I scoffed. âMagic,â it was more of a whisper.
I lifted my hand and remembering the power and golden feeling that had come when Draco created a flower in my palm, I surged for the magic within me. To my surprise, golden flames licked at my fingertips, shimmering in the evening light. A giddy laugh left my lips as I intensified the flame to consume my entire hand.
âHe said you were a quick learner,â A stern and nasally voice drew me from my stupor.
My hand dropped and my flame fizzled out as I stood.
âIâuh,â
âI am Severus Snape. I am here to help you. It is in your best interest to do exactly as I say without any questions. Understood?â
âUh... okay?â
âDinner will be downstairs soon. Draco would like you to join us. There are clothes in the wardrobe. Change into something more suitable and come down.â His instructions left no room for argument, but my stubbornness flared, yet he left before I could snark a reply.
Mourning my sweater jeans and converse I headed to the elaborate wardrobe and opened the great oak doors to reveal an array of gowns, cloaks, and dresses. Together they were worth more than any amount of money I had come into contact with. And of much higher taste than Iâd dare to ever wear.
Riffling through them there was a semi bearable dress that looked as if it were from the 1950s and held a navy-blue color. It would have to do, and it could have been worse. I eyed a heavy shimmering gown with pearls and lace, shuddering at the thought.
âââââââââââââââ
Dracoâs day could have been a lot worse than it ended up being. After finally giving in at Snapeâs insistence that he fly back to England and not apparate he thought his day was a lost cause. But then he met you and Merlin were you a handful.
He could easily see the magic you were doing and the power you were giving off. It took a lot of his willpower to not submit and leave you alone, as your defense ordered. But as soon as your eyes met his and a smile played at your lips, he didnât have to fight any longer. You allowed him to stay close to you, assured that he meant you no harm. No one had trusted him like that in years.
For the heir of Hogwarts, you were quite remarkable. An easy sorting into Gryffindor with or without the hat. He had to play his cards right however, to maneuver you into a world of magic from the mundane of America. But he accomplished the feat, easier than he would have thought done. Perhaps you were more than ready to leave your Muggle world and join his magic one. And not like he could blame you. If he never had to ride in a plane again, heâd do anything.
But just as he thought you were safe, your eyes closed in a peaceful slumber, something dark came back to hurt you. Red eyes that he knew well. How... how he didnât know. But he could feel the cold evil presence seep into your skin and consume your aura. It terrified him. Draco knew you were defenseless. No amount of unintentional magic could keep the Dark Lord at bay, dead or alive.
So, he did something he never had before in a desperate attempt to protect you and him from that evil. He called his Patronus, touching his wand to your temple, willing it to go and pull you out.
Your eyes flashing open, fear written on your usual confident features, your hands digging into his arms, Dracoâs heart churned in his chest. You looked to him for safety. Himâwho youâd met barely five hours prior when you were sure he was there to kidnap you. And now you held to him like a prayer. He didnât expect that. There was nothing else he could do but hold you close and assure you that it was going to be okay.
If you two could ever get off this godforsaken plane.
With touchdown, Draco wasted no time in dragging you by the hand through the throng of the Muggle airport before he lost his temper. In a secluded alley he was finally ready to apparate home. Of course, you had thoughts of your own and he really wasnât about to fight with you on this. He just wanted to go home. So, he gave in. Just this once.
And Merlin he was thankful that he did. He had never been so happy to see the Manor. You had never seen a Manor before. He almost laughed at the childlike wonder on your face. But instead, he was enamored by it, the same way you were enamored by a house that had lost its shine to him over the years. Draco longed to see the mansion through your eyes even for a moment.
âYour mother wrote,â Snape offered a letter. âSheâll be here within a day,â Draco sighed and skimmed the letter. âDo you still think this is a good idea?â âItâs the best one weâve got,â
Before Draco could argue, the clearing of your throat softly drew his attention. You had changed into one of his motherâs old dresses that he hadnât seen in years and you looked quite sheepish about it. Draco stood, out of respect or perhaps startlement. Snape gave him a look which he promptly ignored, going over to you.
âI... I hope itâs alright,â You fiddled with the skirt. âHe... he said I couldâthat I should...âÂ
âYou look wonderful,â Draco encouraged softly. âCome, dinner is ready.â
He took your hand and led you through the large house, tuning out Snapeâs instruction to you about how to hold yourself as you walked. Draco smiled at the annoyance in your eyes.
Dinner was... more or less a disaster. Your stubbornness met Snapeâs instruction, getting you both nowhere.
âIf you want to become the Heir of Hogwarts you will listen to me,â Snape almost snarled.
âI donât want to become the heir!â You stood abruptly, throwing your cloth napkin onto the table. âI just want to know who I am!â Storming out of the dining room, Draco watched you, before sharing a look with Snape.
âSheâs hopeless,â Snape muttered.
âYouâre dealing with an American Gryffindor; did you think she was just going to sit still and look pretty?â Draco chuckled, standing.
It took him a while to find you. Draco could only fathom that you had gotten lost in the house yourself and winded up on a balcony somewhere on the third floor. You had a blanket draped around your shoulders as you stared up at the stars. The night had cleared, giving clarity to its pathfinders.
âI know what youâre going to say,â You spoke softly, sensing him nearby. âI... I canât do this Draco. Iâm not some lady, some long lost princess in some sort of fairytale. Magic or not...â You took a sharp breath in. âFairytales are just stories. Iâm still a girl with no parents, no family, no past... and no future.â
Draco studied you, wondering how you had changed so much from the confident self-assured girl heâd met this morning. He also had little clue what to say to cheer you up. So, he did what normally comforted him, he spoke fondly of his mother.
âMy mother wore that dress,â He began softly, leaning against the door frame. âWhen I was young, before Hogwarts. Father would always be away on business. Sheâd take me to the garden, and weâd have a picnic. I remember her in that dress on those warm summer days,â Draco let his eyes slipped closed, lost in the memory. âShe used to tell me that Iâd never be alone. That as long as I could do magic, Iâd always have a place to belong. That there would always be someone out there like me.â He paused. âHogwarts was my home for quite some time. Slytherins were my family.â
âWho am I to come and claim it as mine then?â The words barely left your lips.
âYouâve been alone and away from your family for so long now. Donât you think you deserve to go home? To a place that you belong?â You turned to face him, hope flickering in your eyes.
âBut Iââ You ran a hand through your hair nervously. âIâm never going to be good enough. Dinner was a disaster and Iâm never going to please someone like Snape, let alone any other wizard!â
Draco couldnât do anything but laugh. âNo one can please Snape, darling. Donât take that personally.â He sobered a bit. âYouâve never going to please everyone. Believe me I know. But... itâs more about becoming someone youâre proud of,â
âI donât know who that is,â You turned back to the stars.
âIf you run away, youâll never know,â Draco mused, standing next to you, leaning on the railing. âBut... if you truly canât stand it in the next three days... Iâll take you back myself,â
You looked over to him, a swirl of emotions unidentifiable on your face. Before he could start to decipher even one of them, your gaze turned downward. He let out a soft sigh.
âIf itâs any consolation,â Draco began. âI believe in you. I think you belong,â He turned to leave.
âDraco, wait,â You called out, âThank you... I know... I know Iâm a handful,â
A smile played at his lips. âThatâs one way to describe you,â
You rolled your eyes, but you still didnât smile and that worried him more than he cared to admit.
âIâll take you back to your room,â He offered.
âIâm quite capableââ You cut yourself off and sighed. âThanks, again,â
Staring at your closed door, Draco found himself wanting you back before him, so that he could continue to talk to you. He enjoyed it more than he thought. You didnât fawn over him, nor did you fear him. Instead, you treated him as an equal. As a person.
âOh, she looks like a kicked puppy!â His mother fawned the next morning. âDraco Lucius Malfoy Iâve taught you better!â
âIt wasnât me!â Draco argued back. âIt was Snape!â
âDonât you talk back to me young man!â She scolded. âPoor thing,â She turned to you, tucking a strand of hair out of your face. âThere, there, I apologize for my sonâs behavior,â
There was a look of bewilderment on your face at your gaze met his. He didnât know what to do but shrug and shake his head.
âIt... it really was Snape, Mrs. Malfoy,â you stammered out. âDracoâs been...â He met your eyes again and the words you were about to say died on your lips. Not this his mother noticed.
âOh, donât you worry about him!â She consoled, standing. âSeverus Snape what have I told you about manners!â His mother shouted. Draco was grateful he was no longer the one being shouted at as his mother left to go and reprimand Snape some more.
âYour mother is...â you started a smile finding your lips. It was the first time you smiled since dinner last night.
âI should have warned you a bit more, that was my mistake,â
âNo, sheâs lovely,â You insisted.
âYou donât have to lie on my behalf,â Draco mused, earning a laugh from you.
âShe really is wonderful,â Your laugh faded to a smile.
âYou say that now, but if you thought Snape was a lot,â Draco laughed at the dread in your eyes.
His mother insisted they go to Paris to shop for you. A way to take your mind off yesterday, as well as find you the basics of wizardry. Which started with a wand.
âThis is stupid,â You muttered as the shop keeper flitted about the hundreds of wand boxes, tittering in French to his mother.
âYou need a wand,â Draco whispered back. âEvery wand is unique, so thereâs one for you,â
It took a few tries, and a few shattered light fixturesâand repairing spellsâbefore you had a loyal wand in hand. Draco made sure that you could use the wand comfortably and surprised him by calling a lighting charm without the incantation... or him telling you to. He caught his motherâs eye who was clearly impressed with you. A new set of robes, what seemed like a new wardrobe entirely and a few books later, you seemed satisfied.
âI really canât ask anything more of you,â You argued. âThis is all more than enough,â
âNonsense, darling,â His mother laughed. âThink nothing of it. Every great witch needs the tools to help her be successful,â
You blushed, looking down. âI mean it,â You tried again. âEven a trip to Paris would have been more than enough,â
âYouâve never been to Paris!?â His mother was aghast. You had really done it now. âDraco! Why didnât you tell me the poor girl has never been to our city?â She turned to you. âYou really must forgive his rudeness, I blame his father,â
âHeâIââ You stammered.
âBut I wonât have you here and not show you the wonders of the greatest city in the world. Come! Come!â She ushered you off and Draco had no choice but to trail behind and make sure you didnât get into too much trouble.
After what seemed like daysâthough it was only hours filled with shows, attractions, museums, antique shops and moreâhis mother finally found a resting place, and by the look on your face and your slumped shoulders, you needed it. It was a rooftop restaurant that overlooked the city scape of Paris, off to the Eiffel Tower that lit up the night sky. You had that look of wonder and enchantment in your eyes again as you took in the city scape. Again. Draco wished he could see it through your eyes... for the first time all over again.
âSheâs a pretty little thing, isnât she?â His mother whispered in his ear, far from your earshot. âIâm surprised at you Draco. Iâve never seen you this way around another girl before,â
âShe not just another girl mother,â Draco retorted, trying not to blush. âSheâs the heir of Hogwarts. The Gryffindor crown princess.â He sighed softly. âShe doesnât have time for...â
âA handsome young man whoâs been on his own for too long?â His mother mused.Â
âA Slytherin,â He finished. âA Death Eater,â
âYouâre no more a Death Eater than she is a muggle,â Narcissa said sternly. âI see the way she looks at you Draco,â
âEnough, mother,â Draco shook his head, pursing his lips. âEnough,âÂ
âFine, fine,â His mother scoffed. âY/n, darling!â She called.
This dinner was a bit more successful. You were animated with conversation and excitement from the day. There was a way that you spoke about his city that had his heart. Dinner lulled to wine and dessert as couples began to take the dance floor, gliding along to the live band.
âDo you dance darling?â His mother asked, noticing your interested.
âUh, no, not really,â You stammered, looking sheepish as you blushed.
âOh, that wonât do! Draco, go on, teach her!â Narcissa gave him a pointed look.
âNo really itâs okay!â You refuted before he could.
âNonsense, every girl must know how to dance, magic or no,â You could both sense that she wasnât going to take no for an answer.
So, he ended up with you in his arms on the dance floor as he tried to lead you through a simple waltz.
âYou have to trust me,â He instructed, as your eyes met his. âIâm not going to let you fall,â His tone softened.
Your eyes didnât leave his as you began to find your rhythm in the dance, letting him lead you through it all. Soon you were laughing with joy as he twirled you around the dance floor. He heart skipped a beat or two. The music ended before he wanted it to and a round of applause went up.
And Draco had to let you go.Â
______________________________
I laid in bed that night, staring at the stars I had created with a simple spell. With the use of my wand, magic was... easy. If I thought and felt what I wanted, it occurred. Though it seemed like a natural process to me, Draco, and Narcissaâand even Snapeâwere impressed.
Staring regardless, I replayed the night over and over. Dancing with Draco... in Paris... on a rooftop like some sort of stupid fairytale. Whose ending didnât belong to me. It was the one question I didnât ask through Narcissaâs lessons. What happened to Draco and I after I had claimed my âthroneâ?
It left me sleepless.
âI canât do this,â I whispered to him the next day, in front of the grand gates of Hogwarts.
My anxiety was through the roof. Clad in new formal robes, and hair and makeup perfected courtesy of Narcissa, all I had to do was walk in.
âWe can still turn back,â Draco gave.
âI canât do that either,â I muttered, causing him to laugh.
âI believe in you, Y/n,â His earnest words caught my attention and out gazes lingered a bit too long, leaving us both blushing.
âJust... donât leave me,â
âI remember you telling me that if I could prove magic to you, youâd follow me anywhere. I donât think I have to worry about you ever leaving me,â He joked softly as we walked into the castle grounds.
âI suppose not,â I smiled at the ground.
âY/n,â Draco paused, the mood shifting to something more serious and downcast. âYouâre... youâre gonna hear somethings about me and... theyâre not going to be good,â I pondered his words for a moment.
âYou flew halfway around the world to find me, and you helped me get back on my feet, thatâs good enough for me,â I smiled softly.
Draco pursed his lips and took a deep breath, still looking despondent about the situation.
âDraco,â I called softly. His grey eyes met mine. âIâd never have followed you onto that plane if I didnât trust you,â
Deciding that he didnât have an argument to that that he deemed should be voiced, he led me deeper into the grand castle and it took everything in me not to stop and stare at just about everything.
âYou went to school here?â I squeaked. A smile parted his lips.Â
âYes... you should have too,â He seemed to realize the injustice.Â
âWe canât change that now,â I comforted.
Magnificent doors parted the two of us from the entire school and quite a few wizard officials according to Draco. I stared at the intricate detailed work of the doors. If I wasnât so nervous, I could have spent the entire day staring at these doors alone.
But there was something to be done.
The doors opened and the entire hall fell into a pin drop silence. I grabbed Dracoâs hand without thinking for the comfort and support. He squeezed mine reassuringly as we began out steps forward to the front, where older, authoritative looking wizards stood.
âDeath Eater,â A student hissed.Â
âTraitor,â
âScum,â
âYou donât belong here,â
 âSlytherin,â
My eyes glanced up to Draco, who had a mask of no emotion, but I could see the stress in the clenching of his jaw and tightening of his eyes. It was subtle but it was still there. This time I gave his hand a squeeze of reassurance and glared down the crowd, who immediately went quiet. There was not a menacing whisper to be heard.
At the front of the Great Hall there were three wizards who stood out among the rest. They were younger, but still assured of themselves as they stepped forward towards us. A boy with fiery red hair holding hands with a girl who had a glare that I was proud of and beside them a boy with a mess of black hair and piercing green eyes.
âPotter,â Dracoâs eyes narrowed as he stood a bit taller.
âMalfoy,â There was the same distain in the supposed savior of the wizarding worldâs tone.
I snorted, drawing both of their attention.
âWhat are you? Five?â I crossed my arms. âY/n, nice to meet you,â I held my hand out for Harry to shake.
âI still canât leave you two alone for five minutes,â A new voice sighed, stepping forward. âI hope they havenât caused you too much trouble, child. Iâm Professor McGonagall, headmaster of Hogwarts,â
âY/n,â I gave again. âSupposed heiress to Gryffindor,â
âYes,â She smiled. âI can see it in your eyes,â
Harry scoffed, sulking mildly. I looked over to him, then to Draco, confused and amused.
âI must apologize for the deceit in my letter.â McGonagall continued paying no mind to the interaction between Harry and me. âI feared that it was the only way to get you to come,â Her kind blue eyes held mine.
âI understand,â My smile was light. âIn fact, if it wasnât for Draco, Iâm not sure I would have found my way here,â
âHe used you!â Harry argued. âHe wanted to clear his name so of course he helped you! You think heâd be a decent person if there wasnât something in it for him!â
âThatâs enough of that Mr. Potter!â McGonagall scolded. âMr. Malfoy aided the heir of your house here from America unprovoked and I will not have you accuse him of such things,â
âIf she trusted Malfoy thereâs no way that she could ever be a Gryffindor. She doesnât belong here,â Harryâs words were as cold as ice.
The malice and hatred in his voice and eyes was a fatal blow to my heart and confidence. Harry was right. I didnât belong here. I looked around to the lavish hall and all of the students and wizard officials who had years of training and practice and grew up knowing who they were... this wasnât where I belonged.
âHow dare you,â Draco snarled, taking a step forward to shield me from Harryâs further words, but they had already hit their mark.
Their bickering silenced, but the tensions were high. Not that I noticed, I was too wrapped up in my negative thoughts.
âCome child,â McGonagall beckoned.
âGive me a minute,â I requested softly.
âWe really needââ
âI said in a minute!â My raised voice shocked Draco and McGonagall. There was almost fear in their eyes. Harry still held the same hatred for me in his stare, now smug as if I proved his point.
It was enough to cause me to run.
Never being in a castle before in my life let alone a magic one, I was lost before I took my third turn. Tears streaming down my face, I never felt more alone. I found myself in a small courtyard with a lone old oak tree.
As I did when I was younger, I began to climb high into the branches, looking for an escape from the world below me. But there werenât branches high enough this time. Resting on a high branch I leaned against the trunk, I let myself cry. The passage of time was hard to tell as the sun sank and the stars came out to play. It might have been an hour or two. I didnât know and I was too miserable to care.
I didnât belong here, and I wasnât wanted here. Moments before I was only thinking that I didnât care what they thought about Draco. I never imagined that there would be doubt and uncertainty about me.
I heard footsteps coming into the courtyard.
âGo away Draco,â I warned, pausing when I saw that it wasnât Draco, but instead McGonagall. âIâm sorry, I thoughtââ
âI know who you thought I was,â She peered up at me through the branches. âMerlinâs sake what are you doing in a tree?â I heard the sternness in her voice, but I couldnât help but here the amusement underneath.
âHiding,â I offered sheepishly.
âWell come down from there,â She ordered.
I made my way down with ease. Dropping to the ground from a higher branch than I could have, I knew that I startled the headmaster. I gave a polite hesitant smile.
âWhat do they teach you in America,â McGonagall pursed her lips, an undeniable hint of mischief in her eye.
âIâm... really sorry professor,â I sighed. âI know Iâm not what anyone thought. And I know I donât belong here. Iâm sorry I ever...â
âNever mind all that,â She cut me off. âWho are you, child?â
âI... I was hoping that you could tell me,â I glanced down, fidgeting, and straightening my robe.Â
âMy dear, Iâm old, and Iâm tired of being conned and tricked.â She began.
âI donât want to trick anyone,â I said earnestly.
âAnd Iâm sure owning this castle means nothing to you either?â A silence passed between us.
âI just want to know who I am,â I finally spoke. âWhether or not I belong to a family, if Iâm someone like you,â I sat on the stone bench that was to the side. âDraco said that Hogwarts was like home to him... a family,â Tears stung my eyes. âI never had a home, a family...â
McGonagall sat beside me, placing her hand over mine.
âHeir or not, you will always have a home here at Hogwarts. It is a safe haven to all witches and wizards who wish to remain,â She assured me. âAnd I am the one that must apologize. Mr. Potter is very hotheaded, a negative attribute to Gryffindors Iâm afraid,â A smile played at her lips. âBut... if Draco followed you to America and brought you here, I have no doubt that you are the heir.â I smiled down at my hands. âI see the way he looks at you,â
âIâve never met anyone like him before,â I confessed.
âThen you are very special,â She stood. âNow come, you have a title to claim and a sword that belongs to you,â
âI get a sword?â My excitement grew as I followed her. McGonagall merely laughed and led me back through the castle.
Draco, who was anxiously pacing outside of the Great Hall, caught sight of us. He rushed over to me, looking me over before pulling me into a hug, before remembering himself.
âIâm so sorry,â He insisted. âThis is my fault. Harry and I never got along, and as soon as I walked in there with you, I pinned you as a rival to him,â He cupped my face softly. âIâm so sorry,â He repeated.
Nodding, I gave him a smile.
âYou destiny awaits inside my dear,â McGonagall motioned toward the entrance to the hall.
The second time I walked down the aisle of students, I no longer had the confidence I had before. Except, Dracoâs hand in mine gave me the courage to keep going. Except this time, Harryâs malice was not the force holding me back.
As Draco and I were halfway across the room, a great darkness flooded the hall. Disquieted whispers of fear were exchanged among the students and official wizards.
âNo other heir will take the throne,â A cruel voice hissed, that I had only heard once before, in a dream. I grabbed Dracoâs hand. âNo heir but Slytherin,â
I looked to Draco, trying to find what to do next in his eyes. He was just as uncertain as I was. Then something sparked in his eyes.
âThe sword Y/n!â Draco urged. âTake the sword and claim your throne!â
âBut how is thatââ
âJust go!â He ordered drawing his wand and leaving little room for argument.
The darkness hung heavier in the room. Shedding my stuffy robes, I was free to run in nothing more than jeans and a sweater to the podium where the sword lay.
âDonât touch that sword!â The voice hissed. âOr your lover here dies!â
I turned to see Draco almost entirely consumed by a thick black smoke, struggling for air.
âDonât hurt him!â I screeched, pausing on my ascent toward the sword.
Hundreds of wizards and witches watched us with bated breath, warned by McGonagall to stay back. I could see the fear and fury in their gazes.
âDonât hurt him,â I begged, taking a step away from the podium.Â
âY/n, donâtâdonât worry about me,â Draco gasped out.
âYouâll die,â I argued weakly. âYou canât leave me! You promised!â
âI know,â He choked out. âJust trust me. Itâs magic,â The sparkle of mischief in his eyes gave me the courage I needed to ignore the threatening evil voice and walked up to the sword for the third time since I arrived.
âNo past... no parents...no home...â I muttered, looking at the sword. âBut you wonât take my future!â
I gripped the sword handle and held it high above my head, watching as the Great Hall was bathed in golden light. Every person in the room stared at me, before bowing. I didnât care. My eyes held onto one person.
The dark cloud has nowhere to run, it was vaporized. Draco fell to the ground gasping for air. I dropped the sword to the ground, hearing it clatter somewhere behind me as I rushed to Dracoâs side.
âMy god, Draco!â I worried over him, holding him close. âDonât you ever do that again!â He coughed out a laugh and his arms weakly embraced me.
âY/n, sweetheart, I donât think now is the right time. You can yell at me later,â He nodded to the faces in awe that stared at me.
I scrambled to my feet, helping Draco up.
âAll hail the Gryffindor Heiress and the Slytherin Prince!â McGonagall proclaimed with a clear voice. A loud cheer went up in the Hall that had me blushing and nearly clinging to Draco.
McGonagall came over to me, offering me the sword that laid in her outstretched hands. âI do believe this belongs to you,â She smiled.
I took the sword, and though the light wasnât as great as it had been moments before, there was a golden shine to the silver metal. I held it up, examining it. A word burned into the metal, in a golden script.
Virtus
I smiled at the word. Glancing up at Draco, and the adoration in his grey eyes, the sword was soon forgotten from my attention.
âHi,â I whispered.
âHello,â He smiled.
âSo... Iâm the Heir,â I offered, nervous for a new reason.Â
âI see that,â
âDraco?â
âYes?â
âI... I, uh,â
âI know.â Draco smiled, âI fancy you too,â
I laughed despite myself at his British vernacular. Of which I had to quickly explain because of the hurt look on his face. Rolling his eyes, he pulled me close, causing me to look up at him. I met curious warm grey eyes that held the secrets of a world. I smiled.
Draco leaned down and pressed his lips to mine, cradling my face with the utmost care as he kissed me. Another cheer went up causing me to laugh and forcing me away from his kiss.
âI love you,â He mended, whispering for just us to hear.Â
âI love you too,â
Then he pressed his lips to mine once more not caring if the world was burning or celebrating around us.
