Hello, my new obsession. You’re welcome to stay.

Feel like when Jason gets a bit more open around Harvey, he'll happily ramble about Jane Austen.

Inspired by the inky sort of style in this art by Sarvan_Ingen on Twitter. <3 (I failed at replicating it but it was fun at least).

WHY have i seen so little Bill!Jon art. I thought we as a TMA community collectively agreed that Jon will do stupid things for information (INCLUDING SHAKING A DANGEROUS BEING’S HAND WHEN HE KNOWS BETTER THAT LITERALLY HAPPENED IN CANON 😭)/silly

But anyways!! I got to thinking that if Bill appeared to S2 Jon and offered him information about Gertrude’s murder Jon would make a deal faster than a used car salesman

Birthday part one

Today it's your birthday but none of your friends knew about it. You never told them because you didn't want them to know. You didn't like your birthday.  Your parents weren't home on your birthdays when you were little. Sometimes, when they spent your birthday with you, your mother would get drunk and start scolding you for ruining her career. And your father just distanced himself from it all. He loved you, but he didn't want to show it in front of your mother. Your birthday ended in dissaster. You spent the rest of the evening crying in bed until you fell asleep from exhaustion. You enjoyed that your parents forgot about your birthday. And so today you wanted nothing more than to be like any other normal day.

You went down to the common room. Draco, Blaise and Pansy were already sitting at your favorite table, waiting for you.  Together you went to the Great Hall. There, both Theodore and Mattheo were sitting at the Slytherin table. When Mattheo saw you walking towards them, he smiled brightly. You felt butterflies in your belly. 

"Good morning, my love," he greets you when you sit down next to him and kissed you.

Today they serving pancakes for breakfast. Your favorite food. You're glad for that. You have at least a little feeling that you will celebrate your birthday discreetly.

After breakfast, you head out for the first lesson of the day - Caring for Magical Creatures, which you have together with the Gryffindor students. Hagrid takes you to the edge of the Forbidden Forest, where groups of hypogryphs are waiting for you. Draco stiffens at the sight of them and involuntarily twitches the hand they once injured. You can't stop chuckling when you noticed it. Draco throws you a deadly look, but you just shrug your shoulders and continue to focus on Hagrid and the hypogriffs. Hagrid helps you say hello to one of the hypogriffs. If they let you fly on it’s back, that would be amazing.

Then came Potions. Professor Snape was particularly nice. He had only hit Potter and Weasley in the head with a textbook only seven times. Which was a record. You, on the other hand, were rewarded with 13 points for a perfectly mastered anti-paralyzing potion.

Other subjects were also carried out peacefuly and quietly. It was only in defense against the Dark Arts that Potter had a fight with Umbridge again. Even though you didn't exactly love Potter, you shared his spite towards this pink bitch.

After lunch, the Weasley’s twins tried to convince you to make a prank with them on Umbridge. Which, to be honest, didn't take them much effort, because you agreed right away. Unfortunately, McGonagal caught you before and gave you three days of detencion, starting by tomorrow. Which was so strange that you wondered if she knew it was your birthday. But no one else mentioned it, so it quickly slipped out of your mind. Instead, you headed to the library to meet with Hermione. You became friends with Hermione last year when she fell out with both Potter and Weasley for a long time, and you both needed a study partner. And despite all the hassle with Weasley and clear distrust from Potter, your friendship endured it. In the library, Hermione told you with a beaming face about a new book she had managed to find in the library.

You spent the rest of the day with Hermione in the library. You were reading in your favorite spot with window from which was beautiful view at the lake. You enjoyed the silence of the library until you were interrupted by a gentle grip on your shoulder, accompanied by smell of your favorite cologne. Looking away, you met Mattheo's gaze. 

“You should hurry up if you want to make it to the dinner.”

“Is it really that late?” Mattheo laughs. 

“No, I came for you in time. I can't let you miss dinner when the elves are trying so hard with your favorite food.” You look at him with disbelief in your eyes.

“How do you know what elves are preparing for dinner?”

“What do I know? I don't know what's on their minds. I never asked them.”

“I don't really understand how we can treat them like that” Hermione said 

“Not today, Hermione, please.” Mattheo growls at her as you head into the great hall. But Hermione didn't let herself be beaten that easily and told you all the way about her organization. Mattheo puts his arm around your shoulders. 

“I really don't understand how you can be friends with this Gryffindor” He whispers in your ear.

“She’s funny one.”

“Seriously?” Mattheo looked at you in surprise

“Don’t look like that. She’s really funny. Occasionally annoying and too study-oriented, but funny.”

“Okay, honey. Whatever makes you happy,” He said with a smile. You frown playfully at him. Mattheo just smiles crookedly.

The elves really outdid themselves with the dinner. It was delicious. And the dessert in the form of vanilla ice cream with hot rasberries was the perfect ending.

In your room, you stretched blissfully in bed. It was a tough day, yet at the same time really nice one. You've never enjoyed your birthday so much before.

“Don't you want something else from the kitchen?” asked Pansy, with who you shared a room.

“No, I'm completely full,” You answered truthfully. Pansy then left you alone. You enjoyed the silence of the room.

Then the door opened cautiously.

“Can I come in, love?”

“Sure, Mattheo” You got out of bed.

“How you enjoyed the day,” He asked you. You paused for a moment. He was looking at you, getting nervous with each passing second.

“It was the best day in a very long time...” You answered him eventually. He laughed lightly.

“How did you do it?” You asked him, because you already knew what he had done.

“I have no idea what you're talking about.”

“Mattheo, come on. What is the probability that in one day, let alone on my birthday, so many things will come together that will make me happy." Mattheo approaches you and puts his arm around your waist.

“I just wanted you to enjoy the day. I know you don't like your birthday. And I understand why. Yes, really, but you're safe here. With me. And I love you and I want you to enjoy your day. It's not just for you. It's for me too. I have no idea what I would have done if I hadn't met you. But that life would have no meaning.”

“Mattheo, you're talking nonsense.”

“Look at me, please,” He challenged you gently. You listened to him. There's so much love in his eyes, you can't even comprehend it.

“I love you. You're my whole world. And I wish you'd appreciate yourself more. You know, you can look forward to your birthday. Because even if you don't want to celebrate it big, there are people who love you and won't forget you. Me, Draco, Pansy, Blaise, Theodor. Even Hermione and the twins...”

You lowered your gaze to the ground, but Mattheo gently pressed your chin to look into his eyes again.

“Your parents were wrong not to appreciate you. But please allow yourself to forgive them and let it be in the past. I am your present and your future. And I will celebrate you every day because you gave me a purpose in life.”

Tears started streaming down your cheeks. You knew he loved you and you loved him. But that he loved you so much... You didn't want to prove anything to anyone anymore. Especially to your parents when they hadn't sent you a letter all year.

“Okay, Mattheo, I'll try.”

Mattheo leaned over and kissed you.

“I have one more present for you,” He pulled a small green and black box out of his robe pocket.

“Open it,” He invited you. Inside the box you found a delicate silver chain with an emerald.

“Wow, Mattheo, it's beautiful. Thank you.”

“Everything for my princess.”
