“Erised stra ehru oyt ube cafru oyt on wohsi” is the inscription on the mirror, which when mirrored says:

I show not your face but your hearts desire.

Sebastian finding the mirror of Erised and seeing Anne healthy and happy.

Sebastian finding the mirror of Erised and seeing Anne do all the things that used to annoy him to no end.

Sebastian finding the mirror of Erised and sitting by it studying tomes in hopes for a cure for hours upon hours and looking into it every time he felt discouraged.

Sebastian finding the mirror of Erised and after founding Anne’s letter and when Ominis could no longer stomach being around him, spending countless sleepless nights staring at it, watching his reflection playing gobstones with his sister and best friend, being loved, feeling safe.

Sad head canon

What Sev saw in mirror of erised

Nothing. He wish he never existed

What is his boggart

Himself as irredeemable death eater. Still proud and loyal to their principle

Go Up to Gilead [H/D Erised 2024]

The Aurors are Harry’s whole world—right up until he carries Draco Malfoy out of Azkaban in his arms.

Harry can’t keep both, so he’s got to choose: forfeit the world, or forfeit his soul?

Malfoy doesn’t move as Harry gets closer. Only his eyes follow Harry’s crouch-shuffle. Harry wedges himself into the corner next to Malfoy and slides his hand behind Malfoy’s back. There’s almost nothing to him. The striped grey-on-grey rags hang off skin and bone with so much fabric to spare that Harry’s knuckles don’t touch the wall. Harry repeats this process with his other arm, easing his hand under Malfoy’s knees. Makes his chest hurt and his eyes burn to feel the spindly, fucked-up joints hanging over his arm, and when he’s done, their faces are only a few inches apart. Malfoy’s eyes swim with tears. The silver-grey colour stands out, bright and feverish. “Malfoy,” Harry says, his heart sore and stinging. “Draco—” “Not Dementors,” Malfoy whispers. “Please.”

Tags and author's note under the cut ->

I really was on my phone at the moment I received my Erised match, and I really did lift my eyes from my screen and stare into the distance. It's 100% true that I thought about royally fucking up the blending portion of a soup recipe.

The parts I left out of my note on the fic: I was sitting on my front porch on that day in July because that's all I could do last summer. I kept hoping I would feel better and kept not feeling better. I'm pretty sure it was sometime in August that I looked up at my husband from where I had been napping (AKA lying in bed staring at nothing) all afternoon and said this is all I have left.

It sounded dramatic, but felt like nothing.

I had thought my increasing indifference to stuff like deadlines and paying bills was a good sign. By the time I realized it wasn't, it was like pinching the last smidgen of a balloon string between my fingers. In addition to my invisible balloon, I was also clinging to my daily walk around my neighborhood, and I just sort of understood that if I let go of them, that was it.

The invisible balloon was writing. It was (Drarry) fics. But it was also the idea of gifts, and making them, and giving them. And it was, like, profoundly important to me to maintain that practice, even when it made objectively no sense.

It's always been true that lots of things aren't clear to me before I write about them, and sometimes while I'm writing about them, but it's very clear in retrospect that I spent last year desperately trying to get a message across to myself at my bleakest, lowest point. Some part of me must have known, I guess.

Anyway, it was an honor to write for @tessacrowley and to be part of H/D Erised. I love gift exchanges and especially Erised. It's a rare experience to get to hold someone's wishes in your hands and know that someone out there is holding yours. It reminds me to hold things gently. Myself, also.

Thanks to the mods for a wonderful fest, to @vukovich for letting me talk about the Bible in the middle of the night, to @itsphantasmagoria for leaving at least 100 screaming comments, and to all my friends and betas for their thoughtful feedback and support with a special shout-out to @kamaela, @its-the-allure, and @phoenixortheflame. I am very sorry if you deserve a special shout-out and I forgot you! Pretty much all my remaining brain cells went to this story. It was worth it, though.

Hypnosis

O you loathsome looking-glass, Telling lies as bold as brass!

For the fourth time, Tom finds his way to this dungeon easily. The mirror awaits him, like a mute and mocking witness to the Lord Voldemort's only weakness. Y/N is waiting for him in the mirror.

Again and again, Tom comes down here with the firm intention to break the damned glass, only to end up watching Y/N grabbing his hand and pressing his fingers to her lips, kissing him on the cheek, hugging him.

Leaving is getting harder.

hey! one day professor remus lupin found the room of requirements again completely by accident and found a big ass mirror where instead of seeing his own, disheveled and depressed state he saw himself happy, surrounded by friends long dead and gone.

Guys, I found this mirror thingy and it says Fantastic Beasts 4 will happen and it will have Albus and Gellert kiss on screen!!!

Do you think it's saying the truth? Or is this a scam?

Wolfstar Microfic: Euphoria

"What'd you call it? The Mirror of Erised? What's it do?"

"Just try it, tell us what you see."

"I don't understand, why's it showing me Moony when he's all the way over there?"

And then a laugh.

"Why's the Moony in the mirror kissing me??"

Remus' jaw dropped, but he couldn't help the warm and cozy feeling that was growing in his chest.

This was heaven.

This was perfection.

This...was euphoria.
