My Type? Quidditch Players

Event: Day 1 of @hphm-ship-week

Prompt: Quidditch

Penny Haywood would never have guessed that her type would be quidditch players. As a child, she’d always preferred the goofy, slightly bumbling sidekick, the funny guy. She hadn’t been big about quidditch or football or any other sport… until her first year, when she’d attended her first quidditch game and fell in love with the sport.

From that point on, Penny had developed crushes on nearly every quidditch player in her year and above. Some were short lived, like the one on Hufflepuff’s captain, Orion Amari, and on Ravenclaw’s keeper, Andre Egwu. Others lived a little longer, like the one on Ravenclaw’s beater, Erika Rath, and on Gryffindor’s seeker, Charlie Weasley. (Coincidentally, that crush coincided with Sara O’Donnell’s crush on the second Weasley brother.) There were only two that stuck for longer than a few months.

The first one was Skye Parkin. Penny had been taken with the older Gryffindor girl since they’d been casually introduced at an after quidditch party. At first, Penny hadn’t recognized it as a crush. She’d thought it was just admiration. It wasn’t until her third year that Penny recognized those feelings as a crush. However, she’d never thought about doing anything. Skye was much too well known and well, Ryan O’Donnell didn’t get along with her. Penny trusted Ryan’s judgment, almost as much as she trusted Sara’s judgment on character.

The second one, and in the end, the only one that truly mattered was Ryan O’Donnell. She had known the Gryffindor chaser since first year. They’d been friends since then too. Ryan hadn’t been a quidditch player then. He’d only been known as one of the quadruplets and as the cursed kid, the cursed Cian O’Donnell’s kid brother. She hadn’t expected to fall in love with him. And as it turned out, Ryan was everything that she had ever dreamed about in a romantic partner. Penny supposed it was his position on the quidditch team that made her realize she liked him romantically. And when they dated briefly in sixth year, Penny had pilfered on of his quidditch shirts. And if Sara had ever noticed that Penny was wearing her brother’s shirt, well, the other girl had never said anything.

i feel like a lot of the 'i hate kids' crowd would be more tolerant if they understood that due to a kid's limited experience of the world that 4 hour flight might just be the longest they've ever had to sit still for or that trapped finger might literally be the most pain they've ever felt in their short life or they might not have ever seen a person with pink hair ever so of course they want to touch it or nobody's told them yet that they can't run around the museum and they only just learned cheetahs are the fastest animals so of course they want to put that to the test. how were they supposed to know etc etc.

The discussion around Ariel TheLittleMermaid baffles me bc if my dad literally destroyed a bunch of stuff I collected in front of me in a terrifyingly violent display of anger and I had a witch offer me an out if I could score the boy I thought was hot, my name would be on that dotted line before you can say "poor unfortunate soul". What do you mean she's stupid, her dad ravaged her Special Interest Cave like a toddler throwing a temper tantrum, I would also run the fuck away

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

take my hand for a moment

your objective from this point on is to survive

the election results are going to take a few days. The world is going to be very tense. I want you to take all the things you like to do to distract yourself and splurge on them. I want you to go eat your favroite foods and spend time with friends. I want you to do what you gotta do to make sure you can make it through the week.

There are people out there who want you to survive. There are people out there who are just as scared as you are.

We'll get through this. We will find a way

Spent a ridiculous amount of time last night obsessively editing my hand written zines in Photoshop to take away any tiny blemishes so they were definitely readable.

Whatever. Understand or don't.

i’m gonna say something controversial yet brave: sexuality labels are a convenient tool we use to define something that is undefinable
