My art for this years @ofmd-reverse-bang.

My Fic was done by the lovely @chryselephantinechaos.

I am so happy with everything they have created. And it was such a treat to see the little snippets as it was worked on, but it was truly a joy to read the entire finished together and truly appreciate the time and effort that put into writing.

Bad For You by truetommrrow

Broom cupboard and Room of Requirement for the Hogwarts ask :3

From the Hogwarts themed ask meme.

Broom cupboard: would you ever be in a hidden relationship?

I don’t think so, no.  Obviously, it would depend on the circumstances – why exactly would I want to keep this relationship hidden?  But I doubt it.

I am at that point in life in which my plethora of relatives are a) getting married and b) having babies, so if I were in a relationship I would probably be shouting it from the rooftops so the auntie mafia stops looking at me with vague ‘why are you defective’ concern.  Which probably wouldn’t be fair to whomever I was in a relationship with, come to think of it.  (I wouldn’t inflict the auntie mafia on them or anything.  The auntie mafia is terrifying.)

Room of Requirement: what would your ideal space be?

Oh, man.  *Starry eyes.*  An Epic Craft Room.  Think biggest room in the house, with tons of natural light and also good lighting for crafting at night.  And just.  All of the cabinets.  All of them.  So I can organize my craft supplies and have some place to put them away in neatly labeled bins.  And a really big table so I can set up my sewing machine and my cutting mat and not have to worry about putting them away.

Also, wifi.  Wifi is non-negotiable.

Hogwarts ask: Great hall and/or Hagrid's hut

Great Hall: do you care most about music, food, art, or conversation?

I am not going to lie: food. Good food nurtures the soul just like music and art (good food is art, tbh). After a foray or two into disordered eating, I’m trying to hold really fast to food as a joy - and I’m happy I’ve mostly kept to it.

Hagrid’s hut : would you rather live in a grand castle or a quaint cottage?

This one is harder but I guess it depends. Do I get money? A grand castle. Do I just have the same situation as now? A quaint cottage. I live alone, and a castle is way too much for me - but a cottage is perfect and cozy. If I could have money, a castle would be ideal - money for visitors, or a staff, or something... because not even gonna lie I do like plush surroundings and being in the lap of luxury.

Graves winks before motioning with his hand – and Credence bubbles with laughter as a white paper dove flies out of his sleeve like a no-maj stage magician. It lands elegantly in Credence’s lap and unfolds itself into a napkin.

[terriblelifechoices]

Cross-posting comment fic, to ignore the fact that Chapter 22 of Whatever Remains, However Improbable should be Chapter 22A and 22B.

Also, I have consumed so much trashy media trying to write that damn article I may never be clean again.  And I thought staring into Pinterest was like staring into the abyss.  Pinterest’s got nothing on TMZ.

So, from Chapter 13, for @chryselephantinechaos who found one of my terrible nerdy easter eggs. The original thread can be found on AO3 here.

New York, April 1928

Credence couldn’t make up his mind about whether or not he liked poetry readings.  He had a much better grasp on what he liked versus what he didn’t than he had a year ago, but Percival - and everyone else he knew - insisted that the best way to find out what he liked was to go out and try new things so that he could find out.  The poetry readings were Queenie’s fault.

“You like reading,” she’d reasoned.  “Maybe you’ll like reading poetry, too.”

Credence did.  He didn’t like all of it - Shakespeare was a bit hard to understand, sometimes, and his tendency to make up words did not help matters any - but he liked the way that poetry resonated, as though the poets were Legilmens like Queenie, and had reached into his head and his heart to pluck out just the right words.  Good poetry reminded him of the Bible, of metaphor and allegory and how a single sentence could leave him breathless and trembling.

Poetry readings, on the other hand, were a little awkward.  Credence much preferred enjoying poetry in the privacy of his own home, where he could read through it to his heart’s content.  Some things, he thought, were meant to be enjoyed privately.

“Oh, for goodness sake, you make it sound like bedsport,” Queenie said tartly.  “It’s poetry, and there’s no shame in enjoying it with other poetry lovers.  There’s nothing wrong with a little culture.”

“That’s what you said about the Museum of Natural History,” Credence reminded her.  “We got kicked out, remember?”

“How was I to know Newt and Tina were quarreling?” Queenie huffed.

Credence just stared at her.  He thought: because you’re a Legilimens very clearly and very loudly.

Queenie scowled.  “There’s no need to shout,” she admonished.  “And this is nothing like the Museum of Natural History.  It’s just the two of us.  We’re not getting kicked out of anywhere.”

Credence looked around the room.  The little cafe was mostly filled with people who were of an age with him and Queenie, with a few older gentlemen as well.  He did not see anyone who looked like they would argue taxonomic classifications (Newt), haul off and punch someone for insulting their fiance (Tina), or try to diffuse the situation and wind up punching someone anyway (Jacob).

Queenie’s lips curled up at the corners.  “You weren’t exactly innocent,” she reminded him, because Credence had been the one to accidentally - Queenie always forgot to mention that part - make the situation worse with a series of Knockback jinxes.

“I didn’t forget,” Queenie said mildly.  “It’s just funnier if I don’t mention that part.”

“Thanks,” Credence grumbled.

Queenie was the only one to emerge from the Museum of Natural History incident unscathed, seeing as she’d been the one to Obliviate the indignant curators.  It hadn’t stopped them from getting kicked out, though.

Credence still felt a twinge of residual mortification just thinking about it.  His husband was the Head of Magical Law Enforcement.  It reflected badly on Percival to have his spouse involved in such a public spectacle.

Percival, naturally, thought the whole thing was hilarious, and had to be talked out of decorating Galahad’s room with dinosaurs.  If Credence never saw another dinosaur ever again, it would still be too soon.

“I think they’re ready to start,” Queenie whispered, dragging Credence to their seats.

The portly man at the lectern cleared his throat.  “Evening all,” he said, a faint hint of a midwestern drawl in his voice.  “A friend of mine back in Indiana wrote this last year, and I thought it would be nice to share it with you all tonight.  He called it Desiderata.”

Credence startled.  He hadn’t thought of the pale blue potion that tasted like liquid starlight since Galahad was born.

“It’s from the Latin for desired things,” the man continued.

Credence shoved his thoughts behind a hastily erected mental wall.  Desired things.  Whoever had designed the potion that tasted like liquid starlight had a sense of humor.

Magic was like that, though.  Serious and wonderful and occasionally full of terrible puns.

“Go placidly amid the noise and haste,” the man intoned, “and remember what peace there may be in silence.  As far as possible without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.”

Credence sat up a little straighter.  This, he thought fiercely.  Yes, this.  It was prose and poetry all in one: equal parts advice and desire for a life well-lived.  It was the sort of advice that the scared boy he’d been would have treasured, kinder and more forgiving than Ma’s hellfire and damnation preaching.

It was the sort of advice the man who had Percival’s love recognized as a different sort of truth.

It was perfect, and it hurt.  Credence thought that it hurt because it was perfect - the sort of thing he hadn’t known that he needed to hear, even now, free of Ma’s tyranny.  He wanted to shout in exaltation and he wanted to cry.

Poetry was its own sort of magic.

“You are a child of the universe,” the man said, and it seemed like he was reading the words directly to Credence.  For Credence, and the scared boy he’d been.  “No less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.  And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.”

Queenie gripped his hand in her own, anchoring him.  Credence realized that he was trembling faintly, but he squeezed back and smiled at Queenie to let her know that he was happy, not sad.

He didn’t - he couldn’t - pay attention to any of the poems that were read after that.  Credence went to the portly man after the readings were over and said, “Excuse me, sir.  Would it be possible for me to get a copy of the poem you read?”

The man smiled at him genially.  “Did you like it?”

“It was wonderful,” Credence said honestly.  “I felt it, here,” he added, pressing a hand to his heart.

“I’ll tell my friend you said so,” the man told him.  He handed Credence a neatly typewritten copy of the poem.  “I’m glad you enjoyed it.  Thank you.”

“Thank you, sir,” Credence said, tucking the poem into his breast pocket.

“Did you really like it that much?” Queenie asked, as they walked out of the coffee house and back towards their part of New York.

Credence thought you have a right to be here and it is still a beautiful world.  He wanted to carve those words into the foundation of who he was, right down into the bedrock with Percival’s love.

“Yes,” he said quietly.

And if he re-read the poem that night, trying to soothe a fussy Galahad, well, that was between him and Galahad.

The poem being read is Desiderata by Max Ehrmann.  According to wikipedia, the poem was written in 1927, but wasn’t published until 1948.  (So, you know.  Take that with a grain of salt.)  I thought I’d circumvent that issue with having a friend of Ehrmann’s read it.

If you haven’t read the poem before, you really should.  This part in particular struck me as something that read very true for Credence, given his backstory:

You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

a lovely array of shelves that cover an entire wall, from floor to ceiling, and all of this is filled with books, there is even a dagger, a bust of the god Asclepius, a pentagram, marble carvings of Muses and the relief of the caduceus of Hermes

Butterfly stickers on the walls, a dreamcatcher

enough plushies to make a toy store jealous

3. 5 things i’ve always wanted to do in life

4. 5 things on my to-do list

5. 5 things people may not know about me

I am the weirdest example of “chaotic good” 

My resistance to physical pain is rather surprising. Seriously, one could pull me by the hair from behind, my response would be an uninterested raised eyebrow. 

I am fluent in several languages.

One part of me is the cheerful baby, the other part dreams up of world domination

I love the amaranth flowers, because they represent immortality and endurance

"The" (kidding! Um, I'd like to guess...... shirt?)

Send me a word, if it’s in my wip document I’ll answer your ask with the sentence that it appears in

“Credence had quickly turned around at the words. A man stood at the other end of the room, dressed in a beautifully decorated silk robe, loosely tied at the waist, and a pair of just as beautiful and luxurious silk pants. He wore no shirt and Credence could see his strong chest, dusted with black hair, where the robe gaped open.”

Just one in all two WIPs! here you go, this one from the Firefly!AU
