#huggle the muggles

[barin-mclegg]

You’re all awesome

I can’t express how much these people mean to me. i can’t express how much this site changed my life. I can’t think about life without these people anymore.

Even if you’re someone that comes every so often and likes 2 or 3 things that’s great thanks. ( @shippy-dippy )

Even if you’re not super active and you probably won’t see this. ( i still feel like i need to tag you because it all started by you @xjunjox )

Even if you’re someone i know for a longer time that is an awesome person and really a load of people know them by name and i’d gladly call them my friend. ( @nxsuper )

Even if you came just recently and cheered me up immediately to make me continue my story. ( @stainedglassthreads )

Even if i know you for a longer time and you’re not that well known, i don’t care if you’re known or not, you could be just as well known as my dad’s grandma (i don’t even know her name) and i wouldn’t care cause if we’re friends we’re friends. ( @someonebehindthescreen )

Even if we don’t really have contact, and i maybe still see you as a friend. ( @quiensecomioelpie @the-blog-of-great-shenigans )

Even if i don’t contact a lot, and i don’t want to take you time that you could use to help people who need it much more then me. ( @xxmileikaivanaxx, @captainthane )

Even if i don’t know you and you’re just looking from afar scared to interact.

Anon or no anon, fandom or no fandom, lost or not...

All welcomed.

Didn’t matter, never did.

I came here, i told them hello, i didn’t have any special introduction i just came and was accepted.

No second thought, just here, just welcome.

All these beautiful people, just don’t hurt them, because indirectly we’re all friends and if you hurt one, you got everyone ringing your door like angry neighbors. I can tell you that’s not fun.

BELIEVE ME YOU DON’T WANT THAT.

don’t forget my discord buddehs! @sillyseal @usagichan97 @dey. just dey. jk @spaceristov

You’re all awesome.

All of you, every person tagged above, can achieve anything if you set your mind to it. Anyone at all, not just the people i tagged above, i bet i missed loads of people, who are all awesome. All you need is some DETERMINATION and IMAGINATION and you can achieve anything. That dream of becoming an artist? or a songwriter? or just a writer? or a millionaire? (maybe idk) if you’re really serious about it, you can do it.

No matter what skin color, or gender, or age, or country, or family, or ANYTHING AT ALL. IT DOESN’T MATTER. What matters is you. And you can make the choice to care about what they say. You can make the choice to care about that pronoun or that racist thing they said. I know, it’s easier said then done, believe me I KNOW. I myself deal with anger issues every so often, not extreme but not mild.

You’re all great. You’re awesome. And i missed a whole lot of people that are awesome and i am aware of that. This is just a few i know. Please, feel free to add more awesome peeps, not that i’d get any notes.

By the way, this discord server really does have the best huggers.... And the biggest flirts.

Oh, and merry (early) christmas!

I’m regularly blown away how consistent and well thought out your characters are. 💛💛

How is the process of designing them?

How do you come up with all the different backstories?

And how on Earth do you keep up with all of them? 😅

Awww -- you are too unbelievably sweet, cherie!! *virtual huggle* 💙 

Let’s see here...let’s split these answers properly...

What is the process of designing your characters?

My general feeling on creating characters is that there should be something real at the heart of everything imaginary -- a core of something from the real world that you can refer back to, when you’re having trouble writing for that character or figuring out how a character would react to a certain situation. That “something” from the real world can be a person you know (Jacob’s based off my uncle), a historical figure (Jackson’s based off Harry Houdini), another fictional character you really like, or even just a personality type or archetype you want to explore (Ana is an INFP Gryffindor and Carewyn is a paragon Slytherin). I don’t really care for self-inserts, and generally my characters ultimately acquire aspects from multiple sources, but I find it’s good to at least have one source of inspiration, to start with. Once you have that source, it’s also good to give every character, regardless of their importance in the story, a driving motivation -- something that fuels them in-universe, the way that their real-world source fuels them from a meta sense. It can be anything from a dream they passionately fight for or just what fulfills them as a person...but it’s basically an engine that drives the character’s actions in your story, just as your core source of inspiration is your character’s battery. Once you have those two things -- a real-world source of inspiration and a driving motivation --  they can be a spring that you can return to for the water of inspiration when you’re running on empty. 

Breaking away from the metaphors now so as to hopefully explain my process better, let’s take one of my characters as an example -- Robert Harker / Bartholomew “Bat” Varney. 

The real-world source of inspiration for Bat, in the beginning, was the character of Garrett from Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 2 -- more importantly, how I felt like a Revolutionary War veteran vampire like him had such potential as a major character and yet in my opinion wasn’t given a proper amount of focus in his source material, as well as what I would’ve personally loved to see in a vampire character when I first read the Harry Potter books and tried and failed to get into the Twilight series. Bat’s motivation is to leave a lasting, positive influence on the world, with the extra time he’s been afforded. 

From there, as I developed Bat’s character and personality, he acquired more elements from other sources. To avoid the “brooding vampire” trope, I made Bat a Ravenclaw, as my mum, stepmum, and stepbrother are all Ravenclaws, and all of them are infinitely more proactive and less prone to angst than I am. To explain the in’s and out’s of why someone like Voldemort wouldn’t want to become a vampire, I developed a backstory not unlike Garrett’s where Bat went off to War and died, only to come back as a vampire against his will with greatly reduced magic. To give Bat an arc that would accent his struggle with a greatly lengthened life-span and potentially watching everyone around him waste away, I took elements of Sirius Black’s history with James Potter and Peter Pettigrew, so as to explain why he’d have trouble opening his heart to love and why he might choose to detach emotionally from others. To give him a reason to be near Hogwarts and better justify his house placement, I gave him an interest in teaching not unlike the one that my stepmother, some of my close friends, and I have. And little by little, more traits crept in, stitching a web from that initial starting point. If Bat was a military veteran, him being a Muggle-born in need of stable money would make sense. If his decision to detach from others emotionally but not physically wasn’t something done out of any sort of angsty reason, then perhaps it was done out of Ravenclaw-worthy logic, since vampires tend to go mad after a while and cause devastation after experiencing a lot of loss. If Bat was the “Sirius” of his friend group, he could take on other aspects from other “lancer”-type characters like Ron Weasley, Han Solo, and Katsuya Jounouchi. 

One can even apply this principle to minor characters. Taking Carewyn’s uncle, Blaise Cromwell, for example, his real-world source of inspiration is an emotionally abusive parent of a friend of mine, only as a Slytherin single father, and his core motivation is keeping his family close to him, like a dragon would hoard treasure. That was all I’d initially planned for him, but with those two things set in stone, it’s made it very easy to write him in multiple AU’s with slightly different backstories while keeping his characterization the same. 

How do you come up with all the different backstories? And how on Earth do you keep up with all of them? 

A lot of elements of my backstories for my characters tend to likewise have touchstones in reality, but as before, it’s all about experiences, whether things you experience yourself first-hand or through other people, through research, or through other stories you enjoy. One of my core interests is psychology, so once I have a character pinned down, I like to try to analyze how this character would react to certain situations, which can likewise color their backstory, as honestly one’s history is built on the choices they’ve made previously. Severus Snape never would’ve joined the Death Eaters if he hadn’t decided to elevate himself through terrorizing others, but he also wouldn’t have ultimately turned his back on them if he hadn’t decided his feelings for Lily were more important than his desire for advancement. If you were to place someone like Carewyn in Severus Snape’s shoes -- namely, making her a neglected half-blood child who grew up with only one true friend -- it’s possible she might have been tempted by similar vices as Snape was since she’s a Slytherin, but she also as a stoic, yet empathetic paragon (rather than the cold, vindictive personality Snape’s been established as) would’ve likely not made the choice to align herself with the Death Eaters, regardless of where she started. 

Just like with developing a character’s personality with just their core source of inspiration and motivation, one can create a whole web of a backstory based on a few core events and how the character established would react to them. Carewyn grew up in a poor house with a single mother and an older brother who raised her more than her own father, only for that brother to disappear mysteriously. Because of her overly sensitive heart, losing one of the most important people in her life hit her very hard, and so she lost all sense of her identity and had to rebuild one anew for herself at school. Because of her proactive nature, she became obsessed with finding her brother, at the expense of every other dream she’d had prior to starting at school. Because of her tendency to “look after” her brother the way he did her, she likewise took to nurturing her friends and became the “Mama Bear” of her friend group. And it can branch off from there.

As for how I remember it all...honestly, that’s something I can’t properly explain, given how friggin’ ADHD I am. XDD Sometimes I make notes and profiles for myself to keep details straight, but other times, it’s really just because these characters end up feeling like such real people to me that I remember these things about them the way I would for my real friends and family. (Or just my historical crushes. LMAO.) 😂

ADHD, a poem

I have one true enemy, it is ADHD

Nothing else destroys me, not even a high fee

It has many weapons, more than leaves on a tree

.

Many people fight it, I'm not the only one

Others romanticize it, they think it might be fun

They don't see all it's depth, our lives it cruelly runs

.

They flatten us to clones, nothing but some symptoms

Their pictures are 2D, representing just crumbs

Of what we are and do, we are lazy and dumb

.

But that's just a shadow, or what we are and do

We have many symptoms, RSD and tics too

We can feel things you don't, they would overwhelm you

.

Our rooms always a mess, you have heard that yes

Hyperfixations though, on things for instance chess

Or many other things, that you could not care less

.

You know it's hard to focus, for most people like us

But so is impulse control, we know we shouldn't cuss

We try to fit in with you, but you still find us sus

.

Desicions too are struggles, we are but mere muggles

Some of us are good with touch, and really love huggles

Others hate to feel your touch, love and touch we juggle

muggle, muggle, toil and truggle

give that nonwizard a huggle

Hi Steph, I've recently started a new Tumblr after a break from this site. I want to get back into fic writing but have no inspiration. I write for BBC Sherlock and Elementary. Do you or your followers have any prompts? I don't want to write anything NSFW but other than that I'm pretty open to suggestions. My ask box is open :)

Hi Lovely!!

Ahhh Welcome back!!!! *SNUGGLE BUGGLE MUGGLE PUGGLE HUGGLE*

I have a “writing prompts” tag you can peruse through; there’s a mix of everything in there and usually are “longer prompts” with details and such, and I know that there are specialized tumblrs that have one-liner writing prompts, but YES! I’ll put this up as a callout for people to send you writing prompts!!

Welcome back, and we look forward to your stories!! Please tag me in them when you post them, and let me know if you use any of my prompts!

HP x SPN pt 1

Harry rolled his eyes. "Seriously? Why don't they just let Buckbeak teach Defense Against the Dark Arts?" Hermione let out a deep sigh before explaining why that was a horrible idea. "You know, for such a smart girl, you really don't understand sarcasm"

"I believe she does. We had a conversation before class started and-

"It's okay, Mr. Novak, he was just being rude. I know you're new here, but you'll learn soon enough that Harry is rude quite often," said Hermione, glaring at the notes Harry and Ron had been passing each other.

"Yeah, that Potter, he can be a real pain in the-

"Draco, is it? I suggest you stop right there. You too, Miss Granger, I have a lesson to teach."

Mr. Novak walked back up the aisle to the front of the classroom. Draco snickered while looking for a reaction from Harry, who was too busy putting away his inappropriate note-filled parchment to notice. Ron yawned and looked toward the front of the room again. Hermione, however, was simultaneously studying, listening intently to everything her new teacher was saying, and thinking of spells she could use to impress him.

Mr. Novak did have a certain quality that made him different, but no one could figure it out. Whether it was his shiny blue eyes, fluffy brown hair, or the way he wore a trench coat instead of a robe, Hermione didn't need to know. She paid attention to Defense Against the Dark Arts like she had never paid attention to any class before it, and that was saying something.

"Okay, everyone please turn to page 394," said Mr. Novak. Everyone laughed before Hermione said "Wrong class, you guys." Harry rolled his eyes yet again.

~~~

"Well, Harry, did you put your name in the Goblet of Fire?" asked Ron. "I told you, I didn't do it." "Well, someone did and now the whole school knows" "You think I don't realize that? I don't want to compete in that stupid tournament anyway. I don't want money, I just want to defeat, well, you-know-who."

"Who?" asked Mr. Novak, who would be the new head of Gryffindor house while McGonagall took a vacation to 'Kansas' (a muggle place, apparently she wanted to learn how to blend in).

"His name is Voldemort, you can say it," said Hermione pridefully. "He cursed Harry when Harry was a baby, and he killed his parents."

Harry walked out of the common room and out of sight. "You could have said that in a more considerate way!" shouted Ron as he ran after Harry.

"Sorry, Miss Granger, I'm new to your world and I was only hired because my friend Sam made a trip to visit Dumbledore. Apparently your headmaster had someone following him around and making all of his major life events into a book series? Anyway, Sam had to see for himself if it was real, so he ran straight into platform 9 at the train station. Well, it was between 9 and 10. He had a pretty bad concussion, some hallucinations that his brother and I were demons, totally unrealistic stuff"

"So..." continued Hermione, confused but hanging on every word, "Sam read the books and Dumbledore just decided to admit it was true? Has he shown you everything?"

"Not everything, but he did see something special in Sam and he made the trip into the huggle, or what is it, muggle, world and he met with Sam, Dean, and I. He told us about some of the things happening around here, at Hogwarts. Albus Dumbledore and the Sorceror's Stone, Albus Dumbledore and the Chamber of Secrets, Albus Dumbledore and the Prisoner of Azkaban, all of them are true. Sam has them memorized.

"So, why did Dumbledore hire you instead of Sam?"

"Oh, there was no question. I've said too much already, lets just say Sam is a human and I'm a little closer to a wizard, sort of. Sam and his brother are needed in the muggle world, and I am needed here. Have a good evening, Miss Granger."

Hermione returned Mr. Novak's huge smile and watched him walk out of the common room, which was now empty. She grabbed her books, Potions, Herbology, and Defense Against the Dark Arts. With parchment and quill in hand, she sat in front of the fire. She could hardly focus though. Mr. Novak said he was close to a wizard, but she thought he had the face of an angel.
