Prompt 1 - Twisted

@rosekillermicrofic September 1, word count 485

This is my first ever rosekiller microfic so I hope you enjoy it. I'm only going to do this for a month because three microfics a day is insane. Anyway this is the final part of the Apple Core series. I've linked the previous ones below. Enjoy!

Previous Wolfstar part First Jegulus part

Barty was bored. 

“I’m bored!” He groaned into the room. He flipped himself over and grinned lewdly at Regulus, who had stopped by on his way home, want to have a go at that threesome we keep talking about?” He waggled his eyebrows suggestively. 

"That you've been talking about excessively, you mean?" Regulus said as he threw a cushion at Barty's head. Barty didn’t react quickly enough and got a mouth full of fluff. 

“Leave him be, B,” Evan chastised, coming back in with some vibrant green concoction in tall glasses. “Besides, he’s got his fancy new boyfriend to see to his needs,” Evan cackled as he twisted out of the way of Regulus’s second cushion throw of the evening. 

“He is not my boyfriend,” Regulus glowered at Evan. “We’re just hanging out.”

“Yeah, every day this week since you fell out of that tree into his waiting arms.” Barty sneered, batting his eyelashes. “You’re like a damn fairy story with your apples and Prince Charming. Ha, you’re Snow White!” Barty howled with laughter. 

“Na, he’s too pointy for a fair maiden, he’s more like the Evil Queen!” Evan snickered, which made Barty’s howls even louder.

“Oh my gods, he totally is!” Barty gasped, wiping tears from his eyes. 

“Shut up,” Regulus huffed. 

“I want to meet Justin,” Barty demanded, sitting up to stare at Regulus.

“Who’s Justin?” Regulus asked, confused. 

“Your Prince Charming,”

“His name is James and no way, I don’t want to scare him off,” Regulus froze in his seat as his phone buzzed. He looked at the clock and winced. Barty knew too well what that meant. Regulus was late getting home and Walburga would make him pay for it. It was ridiculous he was a grown man for crying out loud.

“Oui, Maman,” Regulus said into his phone before his mother hung up on him. He stood up to leave but looked back. “Would it be alright if I maybe left some of my things here? I might need to stay over for a few days as well?” Barty swallowed. Was this it? Was Regulus finally going to get out from under his parent’s thumb like he should have done years ago?

“Of course, you can,” Evan replied when Barty didn’t. “It’s your room for as long as you need it,”

“You could share ours, you know,” Barty butted in, trying to lighten the mood in the most Barty way possible. “It’s a big bed and sooooooo comfortable,” Regulus rolled his eyes and left them to it. 

“One day, he’s going to kill you, and I’ll let him,” Evan huffed. 

“One day he’s going to take me up on my offer, and I'm going to let him...” Barty grinned back toothily. 

“You. Bed. Now!” Evan pointed in the direction of their bedroom. 

“Yes, Sir,” Barty practically fell over his feet in his haste to get to their room and undressed.

[maladaptivewriting]

On scale from 1 to 10 how would you rate these ships and why:

James/Regulus/Barty/Evan

Lily/Barty/Evan

Narcissa/Lily

James/Regulus/Sirius/Remus

Bellatrix/Rita/Ms.Zabini (I don't think she had a name in canon, tell me if I'm wrong)

Draco/a dragon (you keep mentioning this one fic, you asked for it)

James/Barty

Lily/Pandora/Mary

Mary/Marlene/Dorcas

Lucius/Snape (this ship used to constantly haunt me a few years ago)

wow what a fun ask.

okay i want to preface this by saying that i’m not really into poly ships, but im going to make an exception for this and try to be fair.

1. james/regulus/barty/evan: 5/10

i could this happening like one time as a fun anniversary gift for one of the couples, but i could never see the four of them in an actual relationship.

2. lily/barty/evan: 7/10

i like this to the extent that it is far superior to jegulily which is absolutely despise. i can see barty and evan as people who might have a looser definition of relationships and jealous than james or regulus so rosekiller with lily could be really fun. lily seems soft enough to dull some of their edges. plus the fanart is hot

3. narcissa/lily: 9/10

there is a lot of potential here, especially for angst purposes, but i think this ship would work best in like a bdsm fic/setting. like narcissa is older than lily and she’s definitely the most put together of all the malfoys so i could see her domming lily and i love that for them.

4. james/regulus/sirius/remus: 7/10

putting aside the incest for a second. i could see this happening like once or twice. however i think regulus and sirius are both extremely possessive and jealous people, remus and james too but not to the same extent, so i dont think they would like to share. however i think the possessiveness could be hot depending on how it’s used.

5. bellatrix/rita/mrs. zabini: 3/10

the thing about mrs. zabini is that i just don’t think she likes being tied down and i can’t see her enjoying it with two partners. i like quillkiller but mrs. zabini throws a wrench in things.

6. draco/dragon: 9/10

i have read all the fics with this tag, however i think charlie/dragon works better. but the best option imo is like draco/dragon animagus. so like a drarry fic where harry is a dragon animagus? that would be 10/10

7. james/barty: 3/10

i feel indifferent to this ship, but i don’t think it would work out. one of my closest friends irl is so barty core and i think a james person would piss her the fuck off, they would never work

8. lily/pandora/mary: 6/10

i think there is potential here for something soft and sweet but i would only read this ship if one of them was evil and out to hurt the other two.

9. mary/marlene/dorcas: 1/10

i just cannot see marlene with mary like at all. i actually don’t even think these two would be friends post hogwarts based on their personalities. i think they would seriously annoy each other

10. lucius/snape: 8/10

again so much angst potential. i’ve read this ship a few times, it used to pop a lot as a background ship so i would often see it, and i feel like it can work but there has to be discussions about power dynamics here for it to read well. i prefer snape with a non-magical oc personally

you didn’t ask for full explanations but you’re getting them anyway

[thatoneslytherinnerd]

Sirius could see exactly when he remembered everything.

“Oh.” His breathing picked up, and his hands tangled in his hair.

Sirius pulled Regulus close, letting Regulus bury his face in Sirius’ neck. They’d done this a hundred times when they were younger, before… Before.

“Breathe, Reggie,” Sirius said. “I’ve got you. I’m so sorry. I’m sorry I left you.”

Regulus shook and sobbed, looking so small in Sirius’ arms.

This time, when Regulus calmed, he stayed awake.

“You came for me,” he said softly.

“Of course I did. I will. Always.”

Regulus pulled back, looking Sirius up and down. “What happened to you?”

“Azkaban. Kreacher came and got me. I’m kind of a convicted felon.”

“Azkaban?” Regulus asked incredulously. “What did you do?”

Sirius wrapped his arms around himself. “Thirteen years ago,” he started, “James and Lily went into hiding with their son. Harry. They cast the Fidelius charm, they wanted me to be the Secret-Keeper. I told them it was too obvious, that Peter was a better option. Peter… betrayed them. Then he framed me. When He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named tried to kill Harry, too, something went… well, right for us, wrong for him. His power blasted back at him. He hasn’t been seen since then, as far as I know.”

“James is dead?” Regulus asked quietly, his voice shaking.

Sirius could hardly get the word out. “Yes.”

“No.” Regulus shook his head. “You’re lying. He’s not dead, he can’t be.”

“You didn’t even know him,” Sirius said.

Regulus tangled his fingers in his hair. “Of course I did. He’s- He’s everything.”

“What does that mean?”

“We were- Before I got the Mark, we-”

“You dated,” Sirius realized, shock and betrayal rushing through him in equal measure.

“I- I guess,” Regulus said. “It always felt like… more than dating, somehow.” He pulled his knees to his chest, wrapping his arms around them. “I never thought you would find out. I never thought anyone would find out, other than Evan and Barty.”

“Crouch and Rosier knew?” But not me? The unspoken question seemed to ring through the room as loud as the spoken one.

“Not on purpose. They, uh…” Regulus blushed. “Walked in on us. Once.”

“How did you two even meet?”

Regulus stared off into the distance, as if reliving it. “I used to sneak up to the Astronomy Tower at night when I needed to think. He came up one night, said he wanted us to make up, that he was just trying to convince you. He said us not talking was hurting you. He kept coming up, nearly every night. I never knew how he found me.”

“It wouldn’t have worked.”

“What?”

“If he had tried to get us to make up. I was too angry, no matter how much I missed you.” Sirius caught Regulus’ eye, wanting to make this part clear. “I missed you. It fucking sucked, having to see you grow up without me there. And… for what it’s worth, I’m sorry I left.”

“It was the easier path. We both took the easier path for us. I forgave you a long time ago.”

They sat there, on Sirius’ bed, for a long time.

“Have you heard anything? About Barty and Evan, I mean.”

Sirius winced. “Nothing about Rosier since the war, except that I believe Karkaroff tried to turn him in. Crouch was in Azkaban with me, his father put him there.”

“Was?” Regulus had already given up hope, Sirius could see it in his expression.

“He died there. Eight months or so after they locked him up. His parents visited once. After that, he looked sick. It wasn’t just Azkaban, either- he looked like he’d been sick his whole life. He didn’t last long after that.”

“His mum was sick like that. Maybe…” Regulus looked pale. “Maybe it was genetic.”

“He isn’t dead, Master Regulus.” Kreacher set up two trays of food. On each of them, there was a bowl of soup.

Sirius frowned. “But-”

“Looks are deceiving.”

“He’s alive?” Regulus asked, head snapping up. “Where?”

“His father keeps him under an invisibility cloak and an imperius curse. It would be difficult to get him.”

“But not impossible,” Regulus said, voicing the rest of Kreacher’s sentence. “You’re still watching over him, aren’t you?”

“Of course. Now, eat. We can save Master Crouch after.”

Sirius frowned. “He gets to be called Master? But not me?”

“Master Crouch was here.”

“It’s okay, Kreacher,” Regulus said in between spoonfuls of soup. “I don’t hold a grudge against him. Mostly.”

“Oi!”

Regulus smirked. “Eat your soup, Sirius.”

Just to spite him, Sirius abandoned his spoon in favor of just drinking the soup from the bowl.

“You’re disgusting,” Regulus said.

Sirius set his empty bowl down with a grin. “And faster than you.”

Regulus glanced at his food consideringly, then copied Sirius.

Sirius laughed. “There we go! Now, Kreacher. What do you need from us?”

“Us?” Regulus asked.

“He’s important to you. You’re important to me.” Sirius shrugged. “I’m helping. Kreacher?”

Kreacher explained that, while he could Apparate through the wards, there was a house elf assigned to watch Crouch at all times.

“Simple,” Sirius said, “we Stupefy them.”

“What about the Imperius?” Regulus pointed out. “We’d have to get his dad to lift it or kill him.”

Sirius considered this. “Is there something really important to Crouch Senior?”

“His life,” Kreacher said. “And his wedding ring.”

“We take him hostage, then. Point a wand at him, that kind of thing. He still thinks I’m a murderer- that could come in handy. Reg, can you stand?”

Regulus attempted it, but his legs buckled. Kreacher caught him with a spell and levitated him back into the bed.

“Fuck,” Regulus muttered.

Sirius squeezed his shoulder. “It’s alright, I’ve got this.”

“You’re sure?” Regulus asked.

“I’m sure.” Sirius gave him what he hoped was a reassuring smile. “I’ll get him back.”

“Do you have a wand?”

Sirius held it up. “Sure do.”

“And you’ll be safe? Both of you?”

Sirius nodded. “Sure will.”

Regulus slumped. “Then… fine. But I want to help plan.”

They worked everything out, Regulus insisting that they go through plans B, C, D, and E before he let them go.

“I’ll see you in a bit,” Sirius said with a grin.

“See you soon.”

i'm going to reblog this in a few mins with the first part of a long fic that i've been writing but First

a few things

i wrote this not knowing that it would ever see the light of day

as such, it will not make that much sense

i will not be making changes and/or taking criticism on this

i got tired of writing angst so after a while it just becomes pure fluff

the angst and feels will likely not be fully dealt with

it may remain unfinished, we'll see. it's unfinished as of right now

the ships are set in stone (jegulus, wolfstar, rosekiller, marylily to some extent, dorlene also to some extent)

i'm very excited to post this!!! give me ten minutes :)

[slyther-bi]

Random au- dark lord Severus? Evil Severus? Whatever it's random. @sevsssnape

Alright so basically everything that happens in Hp happens but it was all planned by Severus.

Around Severus's time in school he befriends a boy named Evan Rosier. After some time they both end falling love. Of course there's a war and neither of them wanted to be a part of it. So in order to avoid it they had planned to live in one of the Rosier's summer home in America.

After a year living in America, they go back to England to visit Family. Upon their visit Evan goes into Diagon Ally along with his father. Tho during the trip a few death eaters start an attack. Evan tries to help people get to safety and ends up coming face to face with an auror.

The auror seems to be someone who had some quarrel with Evan back in Hogwarts. Upon seeing him he firmly believes that Evan is part of this attack and fires at him. Evan of course tries to defend himself and explain that he isn't part of what's going on. A few minutes later and Moody shows up to help the random auror and now Evan has to fight for life and to avoid being wrongfully arrested.

Sadly after the attack ends Evan loses his life. His father is the one to find him and ttell Severus of it. Severus breaks down and his magic lashes out. Once he calms down he asks what happens and is told of the events. A day after the event he reads the daily prophet and sees that they wrote about the attack. In one of the paragraphs they write about how Evan Rosier was involved and declared a death eater.

Severus shakes in pure anger, he knew that was a lie and he knows that they knew it too. He thinks back on his school years and remebers all the injustice he's faced from the light that was supposed to protect him, that was supposed to protect everyone. From then forth he decides he's going to get the justice he so rightfully deserves and to avenge the love of life. He's going to get rid of light the way they took away his.

So he joins the death eaters, he hides his true purpose from Voldemort. He uses veritaserum of some of Voldemort's most loyal followers in order to gain more information about him. Once he got what he needed, he would then obliviate them.

He also used the imperio curse on several followers and made them defy Voldemort. He then eliminated them but not before having them denounce their loyalty. Afterwards he'd go to voldemort and show him that simple memory in order to move up the ranks.

From then forth he slowly manipulates most of the death eaters into doing what he says. Not only that but he gives Voldemort a potions that slowly drives him insane. He then makes plans to rid of everyone who had ever wronged him. First to rid of the Marauders.

This results in him going back to Hogwarts. He recently caught wind of the future child of James & Lily and decided to pay a visit to Trelawney. Somehow he manages to implant a false prophecy- the very one that ends the life of James Potter & Lily Evans, imprisons Sirius Black, and brings upon a war.

He's pleased with how things are going so far. Upon implanting the fake prophecy in Trelawney, he manages to get a job at Hogwarts. Not only that but he's talked Dumbledore into making him a spy for the order.

Everything seems to go well, the plans with Quirrel (tho he didn't expect to have his robe set ablaze), the plan with Riddle's diary (who would have thought Harry spoke parseltongue), the break out of Sirius black- tho he hadn't expected Dumbledore to hire Lupin or that lupin would neglect taking his wolfsbane potion. Merlin that man almost ruined his plans. (Also what kind of D.A.D.A teacher teaches boggarts as a first lesson! Bloody hell!)

Barty working at Hogwarts was his idea, something he brought up with Voldemort. Severus thought it'd seemed well enough and convinced Voldemort it was a good idea. A tiny part of him regret it after hearing what he did to Draco but it's fine he'll get revenge later.

Things went as expected afterwards. He's rather bummed that Cedric had died so he decided that he'll insure that Cedric's family stays safe during the war and after it. He's also annoyed to find out that Harry got hold of his old potions book, especially since he used his spell sectumsempra on Draco. Honestly at this point Draco is simply a moron who he can't help.

During the final war he speaks to voldemort within the whomping willow. After he's attacked by nagini harry, hermione, and ron end up barging in. Instead of giving up his memories he tells harry to use legilimency on him. Harry agrees and does as he is told.

Upon doing so Harry finds out the truth. That the real dark lord isn't Voldemort....it's Severus.

Harry backs away in horror as Severus begins to laugh. As Harry stands up and says that Severus is the real dark lord,he turns to his friends to find them both laying on the ground lifeless. Standing besides them are two death eaters.

Severus slowly rises from the ground while smiling, before harry could do anything he's hit with the killing curse. Severus wipes away the fake blood from his neck and goes to kill Voldemort.

Once voldemort is killed Severus manages to take over, he gains control of the entire wizarding world and he can do as he please. He'll create his own light, a light that no one can ever take away from him again.

After the war he sits in his study, in his home in America, staring at a portrait of the light he lost all those years ago, of the main reason the war truly begun, of his true love...

Evan Rosier.

[foolsdreamrp]

two announcements today, aren't you lucky???? but this is our first site preview!!! considering our current development contest we thought we'd reveal our member groups! we have six in total and they're named after broadway musicals!! emma's worked tirelessly on them so take a look and see where your character fits!!

wicked  #7c9776

INDEPENDENT + RATIONAL + HARD WORKING

Academic, practical, and usually quite smart, these characters are pretty witty when you give them a chance. Although you wouldn’t guess it from their tough exterior, sometimes it can take them a while to come out of their shell and open up emotionally to people, but it’s definitely worth it when you get to know them. Mostly independent, sometimes these characters get surprised by how much they actually rely on others around them, but their inability to allow themselves to be vulnerable can sometimes be a bar between them and really trusting someone. They don’t like being told what to do, especially by those they deem less intelligent than themselves, which makes accessing their full potential difficult when they find it so hard to take advice. Freedom of thought and the ability to think outside of the box are their gifts along with hard work and dedication to their cause. Usually they don’t like to conform but not every character in this member group likes the spotlight either, so it can be a struggle for them to find a happy balance.

Examples: Lisa Simpson, Peggy Carter, Rick Grimes, Jessica Jones, Rey, Hermione Granger, Imperator Furiosa, Katniss Everdeen, Newt Scamander, Spock, Sam Winchester

hamilton #bb9d63

ASSERTIVE + FIERY + RESOURCEFUL

Feisty and opinionated, they probably fought you over something and then didn’t stop going on about it until you conceded you were wrong. They seem to have a perpetual chip on their shoulder – something to prove to the world and they’re non-stop and won’t backdown when they think they’re right. Resourceful and self-reliant, they usually talk themselves into a corner and end up pitting themselves against the world – often trampling others’ feelings in the process. It’s not necessarily that they’re trying to be selfish, but sometimes they get so wrapped up in their own situations that they forget to empathise. That, however, doesn’t stop them from being the jealous type, on occasion, when they see other people succeeding where they have failed. They’re prone to arrogance and hot tempers, but it’s a shame they don’t really give a damn what you think of them as long as they know what they’re doing is right. 

Examples: Harry Potter, Gale Hawthorne, Prue Halliwell, Han Solo, Ginny Weasley, , Eric Lehnsherr, Flynn Rider, Alex Karev, Lorelai Gilmore, Gregory House, Rosa Diaz

les mis #89a2af

EMOTIONAL + THOUGHTFUL + INSPIRATIONAL

These characters are the dreamers. The ones who often get swept away with their grand ideas about aspects of life and lost in their own thoughts and ideas. Emotional and full of heart, they tend to feel a lot of things… a lot of the time. Their hopes are too big for their heads and feelings too much for their hearts. Sometimes they can romanticise struggle and they’re not often ones to suffer silently. However, they are the kind most likely to fall in love at first sight or dedicate their entire lives to a cause because when they believe in something, they believe wholeheartedly. They’re inspirational and moving, and when they have something on their mind it’s not something that will just float away without being explored. It might seem as if their heads are up in the clouds some of the time, but many characters in this group are able to dream big and make it happen, even if it involves an emotional rollercoaster ride to get there. 

Examples: Leslie Knope, Luna Lovegood, Mia Dolan, Sebastian Wilder, Primrose Everdeen, Lexie Grey, Amy Santiago, Aladdin, Rory Gilmore, Ariel, Archie Andrews, Michael ‘Mikey’ Walsh.

chicago #905959

ASPIRATIONAL + AMBITIOUS + NEEDY

These characters yearn to be noticed. Whether it’s for being the best looking, making sure everyone knows how big their paycheque is, spending all weekend volunteering at a homeless shelter, or publicly cheating on their significant other, characters in this member group like to garner attention to themselves. Sometimes for good, sometimes for bad. Although most want to come out on top, they’re not all ruthlessly ambitious: some are just looking for some real love, care and attention to try and feel validated. Some are insecure. Others, however, are obsessive about their reputation and they’ll go out of their way to get noticed. Many are happy to be flexible with their morals and the truth when it comes down to getting what they want, but all they want, really, is to be important. Whether it’s to a crowd or just to somebody, these characters just want to matter. 

Examples: Dennis Reynolds, Titus Andromedon, Connor Walsh, Kylo Ren, Lavender Brown, Ron Weasley, Barty Crouch Jr, Amy Dunne, Tony Stark, Cheryl Blossom, Brooke Maddox.

sound of music #8e7a98

RELIABLE + GENUINE + HARMONIOUS

Although some can struggle with trying to work out who they are, most in this member group manage to work productively and channel their insecurities into a purpose. Whether it’s doing better for themselves or doing right by others, these characters will put the people they care about ahead of themselves. The constant helper, they are trustworthy, warm and genuine, but are ready to stand up for themselves if the need arises. They are great at bringing people together and are more co-dependent than lone wolves. They cherish harmony and, although sometimes they can be a little traditional, they can also be open to new ideas with a little nudge in the right direction. They are thoughtful and honest and never one to see something go wrong and not step in to try and make a difference. 

Examples: Molly Weasley, Glenn Rhee, Peeta Mellark, Charles Xavier, Calliope Torres, Dean Winchester, Piper Halliwell, Charles Boyle, Pam Beesly, Ned Stark, Clara Oswald.

avenue q #ae8aa1

CHARISMATIC + GREGARIOUS + ENERGETIC

Usually equipped with easy confidence and charisma, characters in this member group are normally well-liked and popular, and they draw their strength from others. They do, however, have a tendency to keep negative emotions to themselves to maintain their outer image and deal with most things through humour. At their best, they’re witty, humorous and energetic types who’re always up for pushing boundaries and having fun. At their worst, they can be sarcastic and bitter, but then again who doesn’t enjoy a bit of schadenfreude, right? Although they usually light up a room when they walk into it, characters in this member group thrive off the company of others and when left alone are easily prone to loneliness and boredom. Sometimes they can struggle with knowing entirely what their purpose is, but are often happy to define themselves by how they relate to the others around them.

Examples: Tyrion Lannister, Cedric Diggory, Arizona Robbins, Juno MacGuff, Sirius Black, James T. Kirk, Mushu, Annie Walker, Rapunzel, Paige Halliwell, Jake Peralta, Chewbacca, Olive Penderghast, Chandler Bing.
