Inevitable

Happy belated birthday, Ginny Weasley! (this was supposed to be a small cute Linny drabble and it became the longest one-shot I've ever written lol).

---------------

Everyone was surprised when the girls told them the news. Ginny’s family thought she was going through a mid-life crisis before realizing that, even though they just went through a war, she’s still just seventeen, thank you very much. Now that a month has passed, Ginny recalls with amusement the reaction that, at the time, filled her with nerves. “I am dating Luna Lovegood.”, stated clearly Ginnerva Weasley: “We have been dating for quite some time and thought you should know”. Her boisterous twin brothers, Fred and George, were, of course, the first to react with a series of exclamations. “Luna Lovegood, what a gal!”, exclaimed Fred “Yeah, covered up for us a couple of times-”, interjected George “You know, when we were escaping Filch after setting some dungbombs in his office-” “Show us a secret passage, that witch-” “Said something about an infestation of tambles-” “Nargles”, muttered Ginny smiling, but her brothers were to busy narrating how her wonderful girlfriend had aided them with their Great Escape from Filch (a feat worthy of capital letters).

“I think it started with an n not an t”, said George, his loud voice overshadowing Ginny’s. “Whatever it was, she said its strong smell led her to the passage-” “Though I don’t remember there being any stink at all-” “Quite the secret passage that one-” “Sad we didn’t find it ourselves before-” “Yeah, specially with how extremely useful it became…” Fred and George could have probably kept on talking for eternity to come, as they often did when pranking and mischief was involved (Ginny knew it through first-hand experience: they had been her teachers in the important art of misbehaving as a small impressionable child), if it hadn’t been for Ron’s loud shout. Oh, it seemed his brother had finally recovered from his shock. This is going to be interesting, she thought. “YOU ARE DATING LOONY LOVEGOOD”, exclaimed Ron, with the emotional range of a teaspoon that Hermione so often annoyed her by grumbling about (honestly how those two were not yet a couple remained a mystery to Ginny…). Thankfully, her mother was soon to reprimand his behaviour (if only she had acted similarly when she came out…, oh, well, that was a story for another day): “RONALD WEASLEY! Don’t you dare speak ill of the neighbours! The Lovegoods have always been really kind to us, though a bit eccentric at times… You know, you used to play as a kid with Luna Lovegood yourself, until you decided “girls had cooties”… bet you don’t think that now, do you?” After her mother had succeeded at rendering Ronald Weasley speechless, as well as making him as red as his hair (or her hair, or just the Weasley’s hair in general), Ginny looked expectantly at the four remaining members of her big family. Her father was the first to take the word. “Well… as your mother said, honey, the Lovegoods are good people. If you are happy with Luna, then I am very happy for you, Gin.” Arthur bestowed her only daughter a kind smile, “I am sure the rest of the family shares the sentiment.” “Yeah, Ginny. We are happy as long as you are.” stated her oldest brother Bill, quickly followed by Charlie: “Yeah, I have never talked to the Lovegoods, aside from the occasional visit mom made me do to ask for a certain plant or ingredient… they had a huge garden, that family… Anyways, what I was trying to say is that you know best. We love you, little sis.” Percy was the last to speak. He had remained silent since even before her sister’s proclamation and Ginny would be lying to say she wasn’t nervous about what he would think. Even though he had been very supportive when she came out (the most supportive one, actually, though it was no surprise given him and Oliver Wood), she had heard him comment on Luna’s “weird” behaviour more times than she would have liked during his time as a prefect. “Well… I certainly would have never thought to date someone that… outgoing… but I guess your personalities must match each other alright. I am happy for you, Ginny.” muttered Percy in a quiet voice, almost as if talking to himself, but Ginny was able to hear him alright. The youngest of the Weasley children smiled. It could have gone better, there was no denying that, but things were always a bit of a spectacle at the Burrow, specially when the whole family was around. It certainly hadn’t been as bad as her coming out and now she could invite Luna and her father to Christmas dinner without worries. She was aware that everyone who knew Luna and her separately would probably be extremely surprised by their coupling. Nevertheless, for her and her girlfriend it had felt everything but surprising (it would have been a happy surprise had there been any). Anyone who would have dared peek on the private moments the two girls spent alone together would agree with her. As shocking as it had been for outsiders that they were now a couple, for the two of them it had just seemed inevitable.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Luna was something out of this world. Ginny knew that. Everyone knew that. However, she meant it in a completely different way that she knew most of her classmates meant it. Luna Lovegood was just so unique and wonderful. The way she could stay optimistic, having such a positive outlook of the world despite its grievances and the darkness that often haunted its residents. Her things got stolen and, instead of breaking down crying, she turned finding them into a game. She just never gave up trying to live her best life, which Ginny found to be one of her most beautiful qualities. There was an aura that surrounded her (just as mystical as the creatures she talk so fondly about), almost like a halo, marking her as one of heaven’s lost creatures (okay, maybe she was exaggerating, but Ginny was a girl who had an amazing girlfriend and was utterly in love, so sue her). She was to be protected at all costs (even though, obviously Luna could protect herself with no problems). She, on the other hand, was another completely different matter. Ginny could be considered optimistic (after all, one doesn’t win the Quidditch Cup or survive a war without a sense of perseverance and optimism), but she was strong-willed instead of soft in her approach. She didn’t mince her words or turn away when people picked of them (not the anyone dared to do it anymore; people knew not to get on the wrong side of her winning Bat Bogey Hexes). She often had problems expressing her feelings and talking in a way that lets her walls down (probably due to living in a huge family, as the only girl with a bunch of older brothers), as Luna often did very well. Luna, saw the world as a place feel and enjoy with wonder and passion, while Ginny was passionate about how wonderfully rotten the world could be. They may not be similar at first glance, but that was what may them so good together. They resemble each other in the things that really matter: their values, goals and desires. True, they may have disagreements sometimes regarding certain opinions (such as Luna thinking wolves are naturally harmless; they are not) and actions (aka Ginny staying up until midnight practicing drills at the Quidditch Pitch, which she herself might admit was a bit excessive, but Gryffindor did win the Cup so whose to say…), but they always came together at the end and when they did, it was something truly magical. They were two opposite forces, like magnets or whatever that muggle ‘scientie’ **thingy was that her Dad had been ranting to her about during Easter dinner. Maybe that was the reason they worked so well together. “Opposite forces attract each other”, or something, her father had said. Yeah, that was it. That’s why, for Luna and Ginny, falling in love and getting together hadn’t seem a surprise at all as it had been for outsiders. It had just seemed inevitable.

Hi it's me, the spirit noone invited but still always hangs around the cool kids. Gotta say, I have thoughts about this because...well because these characters are all I think about lol

Honestly, I agree with all of these and I will die on this hill but if they all just finally sat down and talked to each other...things could be so different. But alas that's the drama of things isn't it?

Anyway, I also feel like Auni and Nai'o's anxiety respectively stems from the same thing but for different reason: Nai'o being portrayed as the perfect golden boy by their own parents. Imagine growing up, like Auni, as the second kid to the absolute golden first one. No way you could ever ever reach that level of perfect and good. The pressure has been put on him ever since he was born and Delaila and Badruu probably don't even know. They just think they are doing good by praising Nai'o because that's what they think Nai'o needs.

But then you have Nai'o who has always just been this way and has the luck of loving the work he does but is stuck in this image people have of him, Auni and his parents included, that he can't step a foot outside the lines. He can not screw up. Because everyone depends on him. Hes the golden boy, the person Auni should look up to. He's the big brother, the bread-earner, the protector.

We all know the 'eldest sibling anxiety' (gods do I know it) but if there's a "perfect eldest one", there's also the "always dragging behind second kid" trying and failing to live up to an impossible standard that only hurts both kids.

And then along comes Hassian and of course Nai'o is angry. Because that guy is so rude and he's wild and ruggardy and he can't understand this lifestyle at all but suddenly, or at least that's how it seems, Auni talks about nothing else than being outdoors and living in the wilds. And that's Hassians fault. It has to be. Because everything else would mean Nai'o "failed" to recognize what troubles his little brother and surely that can't be true, can it?

Sorry this is all ramble tamble, I am writing this in my five minutes of me time before my husband goes and leaves me with our kid for the night lol so excuse my less than perfect collection of thoughts.

ohhmmyygooood im so stupid i literally just realized that a big reason auni likes hanging out with hassian (besides tau lol and hassian genuinely being good with kids) is cause hassian is literally doing what auni wants to do! he's living out in nature, exploring, "going on adventures", and meeting new, mysterious people!! auni must think he's so cool dude :')

Bitcoin Jesus continues to claim that BCH is Bitcoin

Roger Ver, the CEO of Bitcoin.com, popularly known as the Bitcoin Jesus recently tweeted that Bitcoin [BTC] supporters stand against the definition laid out in the title of its whitepaper. The statement made by him faced a lot of criticism on his social media platform.

Roger Ver Tweeted:

“Consider the fact that BTC supporters are opposed to the use case laid out in the very title of the white paper that defines what Bitcoin is. BCH is Bitcoin.”

This is not the first time Roger is seen voicing against Bitcoin [BTC] and supporting Bitcoin Cash [BCH]. ‘Bitcoin Jesus’ has been continuously promoting Bitcoin Cash [BCH] as the token envisioned by Satoshi Nakamoto. Recently, he stated that BCH is a peer-to-peer electronic cash system and not BTC because Bitcoin Cash processed more transaction in a single day while maintaining a low transaction fee than that of Bitcoin.

The statement on this social media platform was followed up by a lot of support as well as dissent from the community. Some claimed that if Bitcoin is supposed to be the way it is mentioned in the whitepaper by Satoshi Nakamoto, then there are some alts which are already providing those services which would mean that they are Bitcoin as well.

Rodney Tambling, Twitterati said:

“The part about micro payments to adult sites technically makes Verge #xvg the bitcoin in the white paper too”

The BTC community shifted to defense mode by stating that Bitcoin remains true to Satoshi’s vision. The news that it is to be accepted by Starbucks for payment was also stirred up. The statement also witnessed a huge support from the Bitcoin Cash community.

David, another Twitterati said:

“Lol, how many times has ver used the buying a cup of coffee example? This totally invalidates btrash!”

Plymouth Freemason said:

“@rogerkver – do you wanna go to Starbucks with your BCash junkcoin? Oh well… you can’t.”

Craig Mason, a person who makes videos about cryptocurrency said:

“When the day comes that Starbux is ready to accept crypto, a team of smart people will be tasked with figuring out which one(s) to accept. They will care only about it’s usability and profitability. They’ll probably research the lightning network, BCH, and others…”

He further adds:

“and consider how each may play out in their stores. They’ll bring in experts, compare costs/benefits, and try them out. They’ll see that LN needs to be online, can’t handle big payments (there will be some, even at sbux), and is a general hassle to use. They’ll see BCH and/or others work simply and reliably (and also work similarly, not some oddball kludge like LN). They will look at the trends, which is gaining adoption. I highly doubt they’ll end up using BTC.”
