#March 23-May 5

[crownconstellation]

so with this year’s April Fool’s event, which is themed after the Chinese Zodiac, A3! has given almost every character confirmed official birth years depending on what zodiac clan they were assigned to! these are as follows:

?????? - Guy, Azuma (they were assigned the cat, which is an unofficial / excluded zodiac sign. clever move, Liber.)

1987 (Rabbit) - Sakyo

1991 (Ram) - Homare

1992 (Monkey) - Chikage, Hisoka

1993 (Rooster) - Tsumugi

1994 (Dog) - Tasuku, Itaru

1995 (Pig) - Citron

1997 (Ox) - Omi

1998 (Tiger) - Misumi, Kazunari

1999 (Rabbit) - Tsuzuru

2000 (Dragon) - Banri, Juza

2001 (Snake) - Sakuya, Tenma, Taichi

2002 (Horse) - Masumi, Kumon

2003 (Ram) - Yuki, Muku

2004 (Monkey) - Azami

(Izumi got assigned Rat, which would be 1996, but based on canon statements about her age (her knowing Sakyo as a kid + her being the same general age as TaTsm), she’s presumably a 1992-1993 baby & she got put in Rat solely bc no one else filled that slot.)

What Joe Biden and Kamala Harris did in 2024.

I started this project back in January and for most of a year, every week, I came up with the highlights of what the Biden-Harris Administration did. I did it because it felt to me our media and national conversion was broken, our government was doing huge things that it felt like almost no one knew about. It's amazing how often I struggled to find a single news source that wanted to cover a huge life changing project.

This is the last Friday before Election Day, and if you haven't already voted, take a minute to go back and look at the last 40 weeks, and decide, do you like these things or want literally the reverse on every issue.

Feel free to reblog this or go back and reblog a favorite, one that impacts your life or the one from the week of your birthday, whatever.

PAIRING: CHARLIE WEASLEY//YOU

PLATONIC: Fred Weasley/You, George Weasley/You, Bill Weasley/You (if you squint) Interested in Bill Weasley instead?

And I could see you being my addiction/You can see me as a secret mission

Summary:

After witnessing your cousin's beautiful and picturesque wedding on the shores of Nice, France, you return home with some sort of nuptial fever. And you aren't even afflicted by the worst of it. Your mother, Narcissa Malfoy, is consumed by the thought of you walking down the aisle. Your father, Lucius Malfoy, is no different (albeit less gentle).

Getting your parents off your back proves no easy task, and in typical (Y/N) Malfoy fashion, you get yourself in a predicament with your smart mouth. Now, you have to find a boyfriend in two weeks. With slim pickings, and a first-choice in Bill Weasley out of commission, his younger brother, Charlie Weasley falls into your lap. Almost. Literally.

Will this task of fooling your parents be as easy as it written on Romanian parchment, or will Charlie's hot and heavy demeanour ruin everything - you included?

A/N: Someone asked for more Charlie Weasley love and I had to answer to it. As you can see, I am easily persuaded. If you haven't read long hair & tattoos (Bill's version of this trope), please do. I imagine Charlie to be more flirty, forward, physical and way more devious early on, so here's hoping it'll manifest in this series. I hope you'll enjoy the callbacks to long hair & tattoos, and the subtle references!

Tags: romance, faking dating, no-Voldemort-AU (the Malfoys are still awful though).

Warnings: slight age gap, sexual innuendos, tropes galore, nudity, pureblood politics, smut, sex or descriptors of sex (indicated by *) minors DNI!

Things Biden and the Democrats did, this week #∞

So in light of events I wondered what to do with this project, and the choice was, keep doing it.

because I think the world needs positivity and people need to see what their government is doing

While the person who deserves the most credit is of course President Biden, Vice-President Harris is the second person in the administration, involved in every choice and who deserves the second most amount of credit, if you like what you see on the lists a voter for her is the only thing to do

I enjoy doing them, mostly.

Introducing the Murderbot Diaries 2025 Reverse Big Bang!

Wait, a reverse Big Bang?

Yes!

Do you like the idea of a collaborative event like a Big Bang, but you are a writer who likes to write shorter works or write from prompts, an artist who wants to set the creative direction this time, or a podficcer who wants to be involved in more fandom events?

A Reverse Big Bang has the artist create a sketch, thumbnail, or rough draft of their artistic vision, and then writers make claims on which piece they want to write a fic inspired by! Podficcers will also get the chance to claim written works they’d like to podfic—and then all collaborate to produce an artwork, the associated fic, and podfic that release all at once in a big bang of new fanwork!

For this Reverse Big Bang, the visual art is the initial creative direction, and the written part emphasizes short-form works. There are no wordcount minimums, but there is a maximum wordcount of 5,000 words!

(If a more traditional Big Bang is more your speed, a concurrent one is running simultaneously at @murderbotbigbang. This is a complement, not a competition, opening the event field to a different audience. I reached out to @griseldagimpel and got her blessing.)

Artists who have a cool idea they want to create, writers who want to work from an art prompt or create short-form or non-traditional written works, and podficcers who are looking for inclusive fan collab events without high wordcount expectations - this is for you!

EDIT: Mercury is stationed direct on Jan 1st, 2024. The source I used which stated it was in retrograde until the 18th had a typo.

EDIT: Fixed the zodiac signs for the full moons using a new source.
