art heist, baby! by @otrtbs

the time i bound ahb, promptly hopped on a flight to new york city, and then shamelessly cried in front of degas dancers (also saw so many other works mentioned in the fic!! the rothkos nearly took me out)

the whole bind is inspired by galleries! each chapter has a different work mentioned in the story with a little placard indicating the chapter name/number plus the artist details ◡̈ the maps on the cover are copenhagen + brazil because I love pain

+ a paperback copy for my fandom buddy because misery loves company

(bound with permission ◡̈)

I can’t believe I went to the Louvre before I read Art Heist, Baby. What was even the point of going before them. What the fuck.

hey hi hello, i’m not dead! i haven’t been posting any of my binds recently because i’ve been hella sick and i was in the midst of moving and my summer classes started :’) but im back now w a banger! this is Art Heist, Baby! by @otrtbs !! nat just got it so to fulfill my need for validation im finally posting it here! everything is handmade by me, headband is hand sewn, bookmark charm is glue and a rly small picture, and the typeset is by me!

im very emotional over fandom creators rn bc im very sick, but i just want to say my piece. as someone who has relied heavily on fanfiction and fanart and other fandom creations, i am forever indebted to the creators behind the works. nobody has an easy life, but my life has been made that much more bearable by the content these lovely human beings have made and shared with all of us for free!!!!

and these are real people taking time out of their lives to make literature that could outsell colleen hoover and leigh bardugo in a heartbeat. these are people who have dissertations to write, and full time jobs to work to support themselves. these are people who have just as many hardships and busy lives as the rest of us, but they’ve decided to devote their time and love and energy into making things and sharing them with the rest of us for free. they deserve so much respect and i am so happy to be able to give back even a little to the creators out there who have made such an impact on my life and so many others.

take a moment to appreciate the creator behind the creation and send your love to these amazing people who have helped us all in different ways, escaping our fears and lives for a minute, or encouraging us to keep going. i’m so sappy but thank you so much i love you all.

I have this app where I read my fics I download them from ao3 in epub; and the last thing I dowland it's what shows when I open the app. So I didn't had internet and I clicked on it and this fic opened in the middle of a page I stared reading it to see if I could guess which one was it and I couldn't guess and realize that I hadn't read it and in afraid is art heist baby! and I've been dreading for so long and I know how it ends bc I spoiled myself and even with I don't think I'll handle it well...

but I have started it and don't want to stop I don't actually know if it is art heist baby but here we go, maybe it's a sign from the universe to finally read it

You know holiday reading and all that

ahb regulus and sirius

[ricochetyears]

love that hc where james doesn’t really like being called “jamie” but goes absolute stupid when regulus calls him that. i mean, in general, he’s all so grumpy and frustrated that no one bothers to just add a fucking s to “james”, but whenever reg says it so casually like “thank you for the tea, jamie” or “no, i’m not busy, jamie” or “that’s alright, jamie” his mind just goes lalala i’m so in love hihi

"you used to be such a big reader. what happened?" they ask

"i...have a lot of work." i reply, frantically closing all my ao3 tabs because im not about to go and tell people my biggest kin is harry potter's father's best friend's brother and his little fruity friend group

I love the marauders band au bc it has so much potential, I mean imagine the interviews.

Give me Remus doing the buzzfeed interview with puppies, give me James and Sirius doing the wired autocomplete interview. Give me Regulus doing a what’s in my bag, Give me Peter beating everyone at an art challenge. Give me Sirius and James prank calling people on Elle.

I WANT IT ALL.

Happy Jegulus day, loves.

"In every lifetime?"

"In every one."

“I love your personality!”

Thanks, I stole it from a fanfic longer than the original piece of work it was based off of on ao3

Printing out a 600+ page fanfic while my family has a party downstairs is wild

Foolishly enough I thought I wouldn't cried? Like I knew who would due I was expecting it but that just made so much worse

[apricusapollo]

“Regulus would be proud of us,” James whispered quietly to no one in particular, still gripping onto the painting like a life raft.
