#Narcissa is dead

Just For Her

Harry didn’t have to think about the folds anymore, didn’t have to question if the crimson paper flower would look right when he finished. He’d been doing it for twenty-three years now.

As he finished the last one, placing it in the vase with the other twenty-two–a mix of white, black, and crimson–he leaned back in his chair.

He rubbed his eyes, mind boggled that it had been so long already. He woke to nightmares with such frequency that he could believe the battle had ended yesterday.

With a flick, the vase of origami flowers shrunk down to fit into the little ring box and then he went to join Ginny in bed.

~~~

He rose before the sun, dressing quietly so as to not wake Ginny before leaving the house and apparating away.

The crunch of gravel under his feet was the only sound in the cemetery when he landed. With a glance around to ensure no one else was around he walked through the decorative iron gates, his feet carrying him to the gravesite without thought.

Contrary to what he’d always assumed, the Malfoys didn’t have a cemetery full of ornate mausoleums with white peacocks for guards. Rather tremendously embellished headstones marked their ancestor's resting places.

Harry stopped in front of the one that shone like it’d been placed that morning. Malfoy always made sure his mother’s stone was the most pristine. Harry removed the box from his pocket, enlarged the flowers once more, and placed them on the base.

He’d met with Narcissa the year following the war and found her folding the flowers in an attempt to fight off the fear that still lingered for her son. She’d taught him how to make something from nothing.

Secretly, he’d been folding them ever since, just for her.

Sirius: Could you guys back up a little? You’re making me claustrophobic

Regulus: What’s that?

Narcissa: He’s scared of Santa Claus

Andromeda: That’s not—

Bellatrix: HO HO HO

Regulus: Stop it BELLA YOU’RE SCARING HIM

[not-rab]

Sirius: I don’t think I can mansplain, manipulate, or malewife our way out of it this time.

Regulus: *cracks knuckles* Manslaughter it is.

Sirius: What- no!

Narcissa: Where are the kids?

Andromeda: I thought they were with you...

Narcissa: ...Wait... So that means...

Andromeda: Oh shit!

*They both starts running as fast as they can up the stairs and burst through the door, just to find perfectly fine baby Reggie and Sirius sitting on the floor, listening to Bellatrix explaining in details how to kill a person with a fork in 7 different ways.*

Let. The. Girls. Be. Imperfect.

I'm always joking about Lily being perfect, but honestly, they don't always need to be the "queen, girlboss who stands for herself and knows she's better than everyone else," because that's not how people work. Let the girls be real, let the girls have flaws just like the boys. Let them say the wrong things sometimes, let them mess up. Let them be human. And let's normalize, not villainize, them just for it. When the boys show just a little development, everyone kisses their feet.

Let them be mean and angry and petty. Let them cry over things they shouldn’t care about or hold grudges for too long. Let them make bad decisions out of fear or selfishness. Let them be complicated and messy and everything that makes a character feel alive.

We celebrate male characters for being morally grey/antiheroes and for having arcs full of mistakes and redemption. Why can’t girls have the same? Why can’t they stumble and fall, and be loved anyway? Let them struggle with jealousy or insecurity. Let them hurt people and then try (imperfectly) to make it right.

And when they grow, when they learn, let it feel earned. Let their development be messy, nonlinear, and human. Let them be everything that makes a real person, not just a symbol of perfection or empowerment. Because real strength doesn’t come from being flawless—it comes from the courage to be imperfect and still keep going. That's a girlboss.

My favourite thing about this fandom is that the canon story has so many characters that are just bad guys - no explanation, no questions, they’re just bad. But this fandom takes those characters and loves them and adds backstory and reasons why those characters mad those “bad” decisions because no one is born a “bad guy” right? Not Reggie, not Barty, not Bella, not even Tom :) And the idolized and well-renowned characters like Dumbledore? We take them down a notch, because no one is born perfect either. I love that. It makes it all feel so much more human and approachable and accepting.

Reblog if you feel the same! I feel like this aspect of the fandom needs some love :)

What if, when looking in the mirror of erised, Remus didn’t see the marauders, skittles, valkyries and others young and happy as he’d expected, but old and happy.

Old men and women, so wrinkled and ugly that he didn’t recognize them at first.

Old men and women who’d lived out a full and happy life, with children for some, and sweet memories for all of them.

Some married, others made blood oaths to forever be together, others just were content living with those they loved.

But all together.

Not dead.

Not dead.

And he breaks down crying.

“Not every ship has to be gay!”

It has. Cos I know my girls and they would never date a guy

[fallintomidnight]

*marauders, sometime in their 3rd year*

Sirius, depressed : "I cannot believe that my parents are making me marry my cousin... Also, she's 3 years older than me..."

Peter, trying to help : "People marry their cousins all the time right?"

James, at the same time : " People marry people older than them all the time..."

Remus, in pure disbelief and is confused as fuck : "Who are these fucking people??"

Sirius, in a choked up voice : "My people..."

I can't help but notice that Narcissa waited until Deathly Hallows when they're in the depths of the war to get bangs. Like does she magic them or is she standing in front of a mirror with scissors making Lucius late for the Death Eater meeting at their own house until she's got them even?

[outromoony]

Normalize saying, "That's my girl!" every time a Marauders-era girl is mentioned because they're all my girls.
