#Nizar Slytherin

[stormbreaker2224]

Is "Of a linear circle" by @deadcatwithaflamethrower a finished fic ?

[cerulane]

Severus se lie d’amitié avec un portrait accroché dans un coin sombre de la salle commune.

Série de plusieurs fanfics qui sont toutes assez longues.

La première nous présente donc le portrait, Nizar Slytherin. Le début de la fic est assez monotone car elle reprend la vie de Severus de son arrivée à Serpentard à 11 ans jusqu’au début du cinquième livre. Le portrait de Nizar n’a pas vraiment d’impact sur sa destinée et donc, on s’écarte peu de l’œuvre originale.

La suite est plus intéressante car si on sent qu’il y a un lien entre Nizar et Harry, on a du mal à savoir de quoi il s’agit. A la fois, c’est une évidence mais en même temps, l’auteur arrive à distiller des éléments qui font douter.

Les fics alternent entre un récit contemporain : l’impact de Nizar sur le temps d’Harry Potter et le guerre contre Voldemort et des récits sur le passé. J’étais plus investie sur l’histoire contemporaine et ai moins accrochée aux histoires dans le passé. Malgré tout, il était intéressant de découvrir l’arrivée de Nizar à Poudlard, la jeunesse de Rowena ou de Godric. Je ne suis pas férue d’histoire anglaise donc je ne suis pas capable de me prononcer sur l’exactitude du contexte historique de ces fics dans le passé. Mais l’auteur arrive à rendre crédible ces royaumes éclatés, ces dialectes différents et les évolutions des noms entre « l’origine » et la version restée dans l’histoire.

La fic sur Gryffondor est indiquée comme inachevée. On sait au final comment l’histoire va finir. Le dernier chapitre ferait une conclusion acceptable. Même si j’aimerais assister au dénouement de la guerre entre Godric et son oncle.

L’histoire contemporaine est également intéressante. Elle digresse parfois sur des mystères du passé : comment la suprématie des Sang-Pur s’est imposée, comment l’héritage de Serpentard a été dévoyé en un millénaire, comment les elfes, qui étaient libres, sont-ils devenus les elfes de maison. Le tout est bien amené et, même si la lutte contre Voldemort reste une priorité, c’est agréable de voir des explications sur ce monde.

J'ai eu un peu de mal sur la dernière fic, qui se passe dans un passé récent (la première guerre contre Voldemort) Elle suit un personnage clé de la fic et permet d'expliquer en détail certains éléments qui ne sont que survolés dans la dernière fic contemporaine. J'ai parfois trouvé qu'elle partait dans tous les sens : la guerre, la musique, la conquête spatiale... Je pense que j'avais aussi un grand sentiment de lassitude. Mis bout à bout, cette histoire représente quand même un sacré pavé.

L'auteur a annoncé qu'elle allait continuer sa fic mais en même temps, sa lassitude du fandom Harry Potter. J'ai envie d'avoir une suite. La fin telle qu'elle est est satisfaisante mais il reste cependant de nombreux points en suspens et qui mériteraient une conclusion plus approfondie.

I’m reading Of A Linear Circle and loving every minute of it but we are also 130k words in and the author has yet to explain why the MC can see shrimp colors

[whistling-banshee]

I fully believe anyone who posts art or writing for the rest of us to enjoy are just amazing and talented and completely brilliant.

Though sometimes (and im not looking at anyone in particular @deadcatwithaflamethrower) I think they're completely insane.

Because I am a million words and 8 parts into A Linear Circle and jesus christ. It just keeps going? So much politics? And completely dismantling the universe (in the best way). Im both in awe and a little scared of you...

STOP SCROLLING RIGHT NOW!!!!

So hey, I missed the week for doing this, but it’s never late to recommend the BEST FANFICTION EVER WRITTEN. Like, really, please do yourself a favor and give this long-ass monster a chance!!!!

You like Harry Potter? Check! Like time-travel AU’s?? Check! Like a long, historically correct story with lots of cultural diversity and lgbtq+ character visibility??? Hella CHECK!!!

It’s an OC/Severus, but not really? And like, it’s beautiful and super long enough to sustain you for at least a month even if you binge read more than twelve chapters a day!! Oh, and has a lot of Founder Era stuff that is incredibly well-founded, and the worldbuilding is absolutely nuts, and it adresses every fucking plot-hole the fandom has always wanted to fix!

Please, please, pleaaaaase, READ IT! Give it a chance, you’ll be hooked by chapter 4 at max, give your love to this awesome author and help her realize just how amazing their work is!!!

Their tumblr is @deadcatwithaflamethrower, go give some love!!!

judgement matters not

i am not him - not in name, not in skill, not by anything or perhaps it is better to say i am no longer him i didn’t want to be him, don’t want the reminders of how everyone saw a saviour, saw my parents didn’t see me - i screamed it into their faces and they still didn’t see - and i am not a child, have in fact raised my own children, through pain and loss and long years of forgotten memories i came back here some things i learned back when i was young you take joy where and when you can - there’s freedom in being yourself without expectations or titles, though i earned a few more than i started with i earned those; it wasn’t some twist of fate or what a soul-shared stole away from me but i fought for what i believed in - the right of children to grow up free of fear, for the people i loved and oh how i loved them i am not him, i am very much my own person and i make no apologies for it, in fact if anyone is taking advantage it is most certainly i - if you don’t like it i don’t care, because i will not set aside what brings me joy for some misbegotten idea that i am him

A sloppy Nizar from @deadcatwithaflamethrower ’s Of a Linear Circle (which is amazing 10/10 will recommend) I’m sorry for the poor quality but it was drawn around 2am

[sanerontheinside]

so, because I am friends with terrible wonderful people enablers, and because last night some asshole *coughs in @obaewankenope‘s general direction* said “you’re good at art, accept it”, and finally because kenope and @ricooola and @meabhair are treasures of human beings willing to instruct over continents and oceans, @deadcatwithaflamethrower hi have a slightly improved sketch of Nizar?

Of A Linear Circle, Part VIII: The Second Wizarding War; Chapter 44: Wealth Beyond Measure

hello everyone have a messy comic

ID: A digitally drawn comic of the following scene:

“Humiliation,” Nizar agrees. “The one thing Tom Riddle hated as a student. Humiliation was the only thing that would crack that benevolent mask of his. Even a hint of it could send Riddle into a rage.” His expression turns wrathful, something Severus rarely sees. “I didn’t want to kill him anymore for threatening you. I want him to break. I want him to fucking suffer.” Severus allows the amusement he feels to be audible in his voice. “Your declaration is a Slytherin’s dream come true, but it would never pass muster as an ode to love.” Nizar’s ire doesn’t dissipate. “I’m not the sort for poetry unless I’m quoting someone else. Severus, if Heliotrope had succeeded, she would have replaced Drugo in that fucking barrow.” Severus leans back in surprise. “I’m not worth that.” “Don’t,” Nizar hisses. He slides his fingers into Severus’s hair, tangling his fingers and gripping almost to the point of pain. “Don’t you ever say that about yourself! Not to a mirror, not to me, not to anyone! You’re worth everything. I can’t lose—I truly think it would break me to lose you. I’m not capable of that sort of recovery anymore. I can’t lose you. I can’t—” “Dammit.” Too late, Severus realizes Nizar is having a much-delayed panic attack. He wraps his arms around Nizar and holds him close, though Nizar is shaking so hard his teeth are chattering. “I’m here. I promise. I’m not going anywhere. I’m not leaving you, I swear.”

Link for the fic that kept me up.

Of a Linear Circle - Part I In September of 1971, Severus Snape finds a forgotten portrait of the Slytherin family in a dark corner of the Slytherin Common Room. At the time, he has no idea that talking portrait will affect the rest of his life.

Just wanted to let you know I saw you posted another podfic chapter! I'm currently in the middle of another podfic, but then I'm going to go back and listen to yours again, probably from the beginning to streatch it out). Thank you so much for doing OaLC! It is so interesting to listen to the earlier stuff while reading the current. Their was recently the bit about Nizar remembering Jewel from the Slytherin common room as one of the good ones 😭

Thank you!! I'm hoping to get more chapters than usual out over the next week, since my holidays aren't going to be busy. I'm so glad you are enjoying it, enough even to listen multiple times! My heart!

(And yes, I'm also noticing So. Many. Things. connecting the more recent chapters in Part IX with the ones I've recorded. Masterful, and the feels are so strong!)

it's MY manic episode, so I get to choose the music

[ethangirafferamsey]

Rules: Answer these 17 questions and tag 17 people to do the same. Have fun!

This is my first ever tag so thank you @vallerwoahs 💖

Nicknames: Meissah, Majs, Messi lol. I have an unusual name that people always butcher up so I get the weirdest nicknames on the daily. I also get Yoda because it's my last name too 😭

Zodiac Sign: Sagittarius duh

Height: 157 or 5'2'' I think. I don't know we use the metric system here. Get in with right system people 👏

Hogwarts House: I have done the test maybe like 10 times and always get Ravenclaw but I'm not sure if I'm actually a ravenclaw. "Ravenclaws possess the traits of cleverness, wisdom, wit, intellectual ability and creativity. According to Slytherin prefect Gemma Farley, Ravenclaws are so competitive when it comes to academic success that they are known to back stab each other, and likely other students, in order to get top". I would say that I'm competitive but I would never back stap people or hurt them in any way, shape or form.

Last thing I googled: The king: Eternal monarch to further fangirl over Woo Do-hwan. That man is perfect.

Song Stuck in my head: came across it on tiktok and it's been on repeat since then

Number of followers: 130 and I don't even know how or why people follow me 🤷‍♀️

Amount of sleep: I can never answer these questions with one answer. It varies alot. Most of the times it's 4-5h

Lucky number: I don’t feel like any number in particular have given me luck but I love 2 and 22.

Dream job: ouff this is hard for me because I see myself working on multiple different fields in the future. I would love to be a creative director one day but also start my own jewelry line and go into fashion design. I'm currently studying to be an architect, which have been a huge dream of mine. And I have been painting and making sculptures since I was a teenager. I'm all over the place but give me any artistic or creative field and I would be happy.

Wearing: I'm currently wearing a specific type of nightgown called dishdasha. It's a common thing both men and women wear in arab homes.

Favorite song: it varies alot but right now everything Cage the elephant or Mansionair. My all time favorits though would be leave the city by twenty one pilots.

Favorite instrument: I don't play at all but I love to listen to the piano. There is a guy living upstairs that have his room above mine and I make sure that I'm always in my room around 9pm to hear him play. That's like my favorite time of the day.

Aesthetic: 70s futurism, cyperpunk, steampunk, dark academia, dark romanticism, Arabian nights, going out at night to the sea shore, painting outside on a grass field, cigarettes and coffee, rainy days, cold days, just winter in general makes my heart go 💓

Favorite author: aaaah I can't list all of them but some are Jane Austen, Thomas Hardy, Yuval Noah Harari, Hans Rosling and Nizar Qabbani.

Favorite animal noise: that's a weird question lmao. When a cats meows or purrs I guess? I can't resist.

Random: I've been really into coffee reading lately. I don't believe in it fully but I feel like it heightens my creativity and makes me see symbols and figures. And if you understand the meaning of why they are appearing on the cup it makes it more fascinating.

Tagging:
