I don't know why but the new Hunger Games song 'Can't catch me now' made me think of Rakepick and I wanted to know if you get the same vibe 👀
Hm, hold on, let me listen to it…
youtube
Ok, first of all, this is a pretty dope song. I’d probably hear it sooner or later, but thank you for telling me about it earlier. I really like it ❤
Secondly, to be completely honest, I don’t think Rakepick would come to my mind if you didn’t tell me that… But to be fair, I think it’s mostly because I knew from the start that it’s from the new Hunger Games, and while I didn’t read “The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes” yet, I did watch some spoiler videos, so I pretty much now the story – and I simply can’t not think of Lucy Gray when I hear this song. On the other hand, I can also see why it does make you think of Rakepick. Because... yeah, it does have the vibes. And you know what? I saw your message when I was in bed already, so I didn’t check the song right away, but I was like: “Hm, Rakepick and Katniss are kinda similar…”. Of course, not quite in personality, but like… the theme? And I say Katniss because, from what I gathered, Katniss and Lucy Gray have that type of similarity, too, so I guess I’m putting them all in one group.
Ok, so I think it’s mainly about the fact that Rakepick is a rebel. Personally, I’d say it’s one of her core characteristics. Remember when we asked Snape about her school years and he was like: “She was a danger to everyone at Hogwarts and the very principle upon which this school was built”? Sure, he was probably being dramatic because he is Snape, but I don’t think he was just being dramatic. Then we had those moments implying that she had a beef with the Ministry, and while she was not disrespectful about Dumbledore, I wouldn’t call her very respectful either. Finally, we have her whole relationship with R – and to be clear, I’m talking about Rakepick’s story before it was ruined by JC. I mean, let’s take the letter we found in Y4.
To me, “final warning” means there were warnings before that one. Moreover, it had to be sent in the past. And where Patty was at the time we found that letter? At Hogwarts, searching for the Cursed Vaults. It actually kinda fits the chorus of the song:
But I'm in the trees, I'm in the breeze My footsteps on the ground You'll see my face in every place But you can't catch me now
There’s just something very “uncatchable” about Rakepick indeed. Also, this idea of being ever-present actually goes along with her role in the story, imo. How she’s being mentioned in Y2 already, how she ties it all together and whatnot.
Also, not directly connected to the song, but you know how the main Hunger Games series is all about Katniss's willingness to sacrifice for Prim?
I still claim that she was genuine at that moment because it was way too late for any attempts at manipulating MC. And I do think that sacrifice was meant to play a much bigger role in Patty’s story overall.
Finally, one last more random thought. Well, technically two. Katniss is strongly associated with fire, right? Now, tell me “the girl on fire” does not suit Rakepick perfectly. On top of that, a while ago in HPHM, there was that masquerade ball TLSQ. And I thought then that it would be way more interesting if it wasn’t at Hogwarts, and it was Jacob and Rakepick attending the event. I talked about it with my friend, and I kid you not, I even mentioned the dress Katniss had in “Catching fire” while describing what would Patty wear.

Who? Me?? NAHHHHHH... xD
(Thank you for thinking of me, it's honestly really nice 🖤)
the key to not fanonizing your faves is to simply become academia-brained about it. never make a statement about a character you can’t back up with at least three references to the source material

October's outfit
It's the gorgeous Indigo Silverwood @indigobackfire and I'm so in love with this. She's rocking this dark dress and boots combo and I had so much fun drawing her again. Also my shortsightedness meant that it took me a while to see that the necklace with a bird head XD

Hugs! Maybe 12 or 34! If it isn't awkward could it be with my MC Indigo, I just think two tall scots with curious hair colors would probably get along 🙈 Or any character you prefer xD
79 Hugs
Hug 26/79
34. Hug to prevent a fight
pre-match trash talk takes a wrong turn when one of the Gryffindors crosses the line in making fun of Freyja’s teammates.
(hug prompts)

I decided to give Brother's Theme a listen and damn I forgot how beautiful how melancholic it sounds. It doesn't have the right to be this good!
Maybe if the writers put that on their earphones and close their eyes they'd be reminded of the vibes the siblings were supposed to have.
Oh, I absolutely agree! “Brother Theme” is so amazing! I mean, to be fair, I have to say that HPHM music is pretty good in general, but this one piece is simply another level.
Sadly, I’m afraid your suggestion might not work either way. It seems that JC turned it into a generic emotional music theme. I don’t mind it being used for Rowan, but I didn’t really like it being used in Chiara’s TLSQ, and I absolutely hated it being used for Peregrine. And sadly, I’m not talking only about meeting Perry – the theme was also played when this piece of shit fell off the bridge.
*sigh*
It really is a shame that it lost its significance. But as you pointed out, the relationship between the siblings lost its original character, too. Hell, now that I think about it, it actually became quite insignificant as well. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not really gonna complain about it – the less Fugly Slut is in the game, the better. But at the same time, it just feels sad that Jacob simply… doesn’t feel important anymore, in my opinion. Do you know he wasn’t even mentioned in the chapter about MC’s graduation? I suppose it’s because he’s at the hospital and whatnot, but damn, they could’ve at least given us a short scene where he sends us a letter with congratulations or something. Jacob Ellis would have to be dead to not be there for Helena on a day like this.
But oh well, I guess.

Magical Milestone Outfits 2023 Part 2
Second set of outfits from July to December and realised how much more autumn and winter colours I used here for the background. Here I definitely started experimenting more with brushes to get certain texture. I want to thank everyone again for their wonderful OCs and the chance to get to draw them.
Starting from top left; My own Juniper Moss, Julian Bennett @slytherindisaster, Wendy Gordon @drinkyoursoupbitch, Indigo Silverwood @indigobackfire, Ellie Hopper @thatravenpuffwitch and Madeline Orionswan @madelineorionswan

On the characters dynamics, 8 (I'm thinking of that baguette wall here xD) and 13! 💖
((i’m assuming this is for duncan/freyja because of the baguette wall ref 🥖😉))
8. Do they ever share (or steal) each other’s food? How do they act/react to it?
I can’t really see them casually sharing food, but Duncan would be the one to steal Freyja’s food. Like say he was in a bad mood, he might look to stir things up by taking Freyja’s personal snack stash. And make sure he “got caught” doing it. Freyja doesn’t blow up easily, but he’s figured out exactly which buttons to push to ensure an argument.
Dead or alive, Duncan remains emotionally constipated and is unable to express his feelings without bringing someone else along for the ride.
(insp)
As a ghost, Duncan has been allowed to possess Freyja a couple of times, so he could experience things like tasting food again. So I guess in a way that’s sharing food, although Freyja doesn’t really get much out of the eating experience.
13. What do they do to make each other smile or laugh on bad days?
They drive each other insane most of the time, but even they would have the occasional urge to be nice to the other. Especially when the other looks a little out of spirits. As a ghost, there’s not much Duncan can do to cheer Freyja up other than saying something nice, which is a struggle enough. Freyja in turn might offer to be Peeve’s prank target to get a laugh out of Duncan.
If Duncan didn’t die, his attempt to cheer her up would probably include some form of bread. Freyja on the other hand would offer to go spend a day outdoors together, to put bad thoughts aside.

Previous / Next
[From the Beginning]
Chapter 3
That night, Verna was walking back to her cabin from the showers. She was still in a sour mood after what had happened with Merula. She knew that if she hadn’t hit Merula, maybe the camp director would’ve taken her accusation more seriously but sometimes she couldn’t control her temper. Penny had been in a state when she returned from the main building. She had been sure Verna would get fired but when Verna told the others that instead she got paired up with Merula as counsellors, they all seemed to agree that that was an even worse punishment. She was annoyed, sure, but not as annoyed as she would’ve been if she’d lost the job.
~
It had gotten dark while Verna had been trying to wash her hair, and Penny had already headed back earlier to get ready for a little bonfire meetup amongst the counsellors. She shone her torch around to see where she was going. The sounds of the forest were somehow louder this late, once most of the day-time noise was reduced to minimum. It was a bit of a trek back to their cabin. The cabins were built a good distance from each other and from the main building to apparently give off an authentic experience but right now Verna really hoped it would be a bit closer. Suddenly she heard movement from the direction of the woods to her left. She peered towards the sound but saw nothing. Against her will, the story Charlie had told the first night came to her mind. This really was the perfect place to scare kids out of their mind. And unwitting camp counsellors as well, apparently.
“Hello?” she called, and the sound started to resemble footsteps. Verna resolved to follow. It was probably just some of the other counsellors messing around, but she didn’t want to take the chance that there was an intruder. Shutting off her torchlight, she left the path and, as silently as she could, followed the sound.
~
For a while the footsteps continued without a pause, and then came to a sudden stop. Verna hid behind a huge tree and waited. Seconds later she saw the person she’d been following step out into her field of vision, accompanied by someone else. Verna wasn’t sure if there’d been two of them all along, or if they were meeting out here. The pale moonlight shining through the canopy didn’t illuminate enough of the forest for Verna to make any sort of guess as to who these people were. She thought for a moment that the one she’d originally being following was wearing a camp counsellor t-shirt. She nearly breathed a sigh of relief and started to head back, when she heard something that made the hairs on her neck stand up.
“Something’s different this year,” a voice was saying. Maybe a girl’s. She was whispering. “That girl almost drowned and it’s not even the end of orientation yet.”
Another voice replied, also in a hushed whisper: “Something must’ve gone wrong.”
“It doesn’t make any sense,” the first one spoke again. Verna dared to peek from behind her tree ever so slightly more to see who were talking. In her eagerness to have confirmation, she stepped on a twig, which snapped in half a little too loudly in the quiet forest. The two people immediately looked her way, and Verna, not wanting to get caught eavesdropping, hid completely behind the tree again. She heard two sets of footsteps beginning to close in and so she made a decision to run for it. Neither of the shady people had a torch so they might not be able to tell it was her. She was also fast, and she knew it. She could make it back to her cabin using a detour to set her pursuers on the wrong trail.
~
It had seemed like a good plan at first, but after running for what felt like several minutes and still having not had made it out of the woods, she begun to think she was lost. On a positive note, she didn’t hear anyone following after her anymore. She stopped to catch her breath and look around, still not daring to switch her torch back on. Had those really been counsellors? And what the hell had they been talking about? There was something deeply unsettling about it’s not even the end of orientation yet. Verna shivered, even though it was a warm night. At random, she chose a direction and begun to walk towards it. She had no idea where she was, but soon she started to hear music. She headed towards it, hoping it came from one of the buildings at the camp. She had not walked for long, when she saw firelight, and heard people talking and laughing. When she emerged from the forest into a small clearing, it was packed with people chatting, dancing, and drinking beer. For a few seconds she was taken aback by all the noise and excitement that she didn’t notice Colette and Rowan heading her way.
“Verna! Where have you been?” Colette asked, throwing a hand around her shoulder. Verna was suddenly very self-conscious about her shower-damp hair and the soggy towel she was still holding.
“We tried to find you from the showers when you didn’t come back,” Rowan said.
“Oh, I just got lost, I think…” Verna muttered.
“Are you okay?” asked Rowan.
Verna didn’t know what exactly to say. Rowan and Colette seemed to be having fun and she didn’t feel like spoiling their night by sharing something that might’ve been nothing in the first place.
“Well, you’re here now! Jules is around somewhere, I saw her earlier with Charlie and Bill,” Colette continued when Verna didn’t make a reply.
“Penny invited us all here and then almost stayed behind herself,” added Rowan.
“Weird,” Verna said absent-mindedly.
“She’s a stickler to rules, but maybe she’ll come around during the summer…” Colette mused and then started to drag Verna towards the cooler bag holding a bunch of beer bottles.
~
Several hours and beers later, Verna had pretty much convinced herself that what she saw in the forest was her imagination playing tricks on her. She was sitting on a big rock, talking to Charlie and Jules, when Merula and her dark-haired friend appeared into the clearing. They were both dressed for the party, as well as one could in the middle of nowhere, too. The other two noticed Verna staring.
“I can’t believe you punched her,” Charlie said, but he sounded impressed.
“She deserved it for messing with Rowan,” said Jules.
Verna turned her eyes back to her friends and grinned. “Glad to be of service!”
“No but seriously, the way she acts like she owns this camp is ridiculous,” continued Jules. “She has to be over eighteen to be a counsellor here, right?”
“She’s nineteen, I asked Penny,” Verna explained.
“I guess some people never get over secondary school…” Charlie mused and took a swig from his beer.
~
Verna wound up dancing with Indigo and Colette for so long her feet ached and she felt dizzy. The three girls looked for somewhere to sit and Verna walked straight into someone while not looking. That someone being Gael from Charlie’s cabin. He spilled some of his beer all over his t-shirt, and gave Verna an annoyed look.
“Hey, do you mind?” he asked, irritably.
“Oh, whoops, sorry…” Verna said and heard giggles from Indigo and Colette behind her.
“For fuck’s sake…” Gael muttered, clearly not impressed by the situation.
“Oh c’mon, she said she was sorry,” Colette interjected. “And it’s a party, after all!”
“A shitty party,” replied Gael and left without another word. Verna turned around to the other two and they all burst out laughing.
“That was awkward,” said Indigo.
“It’s the first week and I’ve already made like, three enemies,” Verna laughed.
“Merula, Gael, and…?” asked Colette
“The other girl, Merula’s friend.”
“Ooh, you mean Ismelda,” Indigo realized. “She and Merula seem to be doing everything together so that checks out.”
“Ismelda. I have to remember that,” Verna said. “I’ve been calling her The Dark-haired One in my head this entire time.”
They burst into giggles again, and Verna had the vague feeling that none of this would’ve been half as funny if they hadn’t been emptying beer bottles left and right. She wondered where the beer had even come from, as it was sternly forbidden. It was probably better if she didn’t know.
~
It was nearly 2am, when Verna and Colette saw it fit to start heading back. Rowan had left shortly after midnight, but Jules must’ve still been around. The girls split up to look for her, and after ten or so minutes Verna found her deep in conversation with a certain Head Counsellor. Neither seemed to notice her.
“Hey,” she said cheerily, as she walked up to them. Jules and Bill looked up. “Am I interrupting something?” Verna asked, just to be a bit of a twat.
“No, not at all!” Bill said bashfully.
“I just thought I’d let Jules here know that Colette and I are heading back.”
“Okay,” said Jules. She didn’t seem that drunk or ready to leave yet. “I’ll stay for a bit.”
“Gotcha,” Verna replied and started to head back to look for Colette. “Don’t do anything I wouldn’t do!” she called back to the two.
“Shut up Verna,” Jules laughed back.
It didn’t take as long to find Colette, who had forgotten all about finding Jules, and was instead talking to Jae Kim from cabin six. Verna rolled her eyes, amused. “Ready princess?” she asked Colette.
“Oh, hi! Yeah,” Colette exclaimed. “Did you find Jules?”
Verna nodded. “Hi Jae,” she said to the boy.
“Hi Verna,” Jae replied politely enough, though he didn’t seem particularly thrilled to be interrupted.
“Sorry Jae, gotta go. Good night,” said Colette and Verna echoed her. Then the pair headed away from the clearing towards their cabin. Verna didn’t have her torch or her towel with her anymore and wondered where they had gotten to, but she was too lazy to turn around and get them.
“Hey Verna?” Colette asked after a while.
“Mm?”
“I left my torch at the clearing…”
“Motherfuck---”
“It’s fine, we can make it,” Colette said and continued on with determination.
“We’re going to fall and break our necks,” Verna laughed, jogging after her.
“Oh, that would be really bad.”
“Yeah, very bad indeed.”
“Do you think that Penny’s cute?” asked Colette, changing the subject on the fly.
“Uhh, does it have something to do with breaking necks?”
“Oh no,” Colette said, giggling. “I just think she’s pretty.”
“Yeah, sure,” Verna agreed. “She is.”
Colette, seemingly satisfied with the answer, started to sing something in French under her breath and Verna tried to focus on staying upright. As they walked through the deepest, densest part of the forest the path ran through, she could’ve sworn she saw someone or something from the corner of her eye. But when she stopped to look, there was nothing there. In the end, both girls made it back to the cabin without an incident and as quietly as they could, crawled to their bunks.

Yeah... 😅
i think it's important to get deeply emotionally unironically involved in a bad piece of media whilst fully aware that it objectively sucks ass. like for your health or whatever

Hey, Akai! How ya doing?
I was planning either to ask you or just say how impressed i am by your art style but there's something that has been sticking in my mind for a while.
I even remember how @indigobackfire talked about that: every art style may be based on some media culture like some shows, magazines, books etc and all that mixes with how artist sees actual things in their imagination. I wonder what your art style may be based on because the way you present it makes it even more special. And for some reason (pls forgive me if that'll sound dumb as hell) I associate your style with crystals and thunder lightning. Colouring, shading and blings make the impression of something precious but fragile and at the same time something powerful and furious ("living with your demon" art? Powerful work!?? MHM).
Anyway, sorry for a super long ask. Have a good day! ♥️
hey witchy, im doing alright and i hope ur doing alright too ❤❤
im glad u like my art djsjdjjsd and oh? well to be fair i never really take the time to reflect what inspired me to form my current art style. I just like semi-realism [more cartoonish side] and painting-like styles as well as pastel tones.
sometimes i like to experiment with the horror/ unsettling type of art [which im failing successfully] but ill practice more LOL
i honestly take most of my inspirations from friends and mutuals, i have a habit of trying to mimic certain styles from my friends artstyles that i like [etc i actually tried to mimic nose style from @scarlettroubles, eye lash style was inspired by @kinarymo, chibi style sometimes from you which is pretty ironic 😂]
and damn you right i actually agree with crystals being associated with my art. I did try to catch the color pallettes of them pastel crystals especially they're just super pretty 😭. I would also associate my art with clouds and sunset/sunrise maybe.
and dww lol im actually glad u asked it took me a while to reply to this cause i had to think through, thanks for the ask!❤❤

Hey, Marta! I have no hp related to say except that whatever's going on hogwarts legacy seems to be just romancing sad white boys and nothing on plot or whatever, disappointing. (Which is fine on fics and romance centered stories, but so far I heard no one complementing or even commenting on the story.)
I think a lot of these media/game developers think they can simply rely on the brand Harry Potter and just spew any half assed stories with the cover of 'ohh spells and references'. I don't even have nostalgia for anything and it makes me sad to see it watered down to the technicalities of the world and not the story that lies in its core.
But capitalism I guess.
Anyway, I took so long to listen to Eat Your Young and oh my, what a bop! Why does Hozier use such a sexy voice to sing the horrors??? I truly hadn't heard him in interview in a while so when I heard Through Me, I got whiplash. While Scottish still my darling accent, Normal People gave me an appreciation for Irish accent.
Well, those were just some random meanderings. I hope you're doing well 💖 *virtual hug*
Hello, Bee! It’s really good to hear from you! ☺
I’m gonna be honest, I’m actively not following information on Hogwarts Legacy, so I can’t really comment on that. I have a vague idea about the plot thanks to my friend who’s more interested in it, but she also said that the story is rather bleak overall. So... there’s that, I guess. But as I said, I don’t know enough to give my opinion.
That being said, I do want to comment on your thought about “abusing” the HP brand because… yeah, that’s true. Well, sort of. Because, for example, I still believe that HPHM wasn’t just about that at the very beginning. I do think that Matt London and his team created this story with some level of passion. Were they also hoping for easy money? Yeah, probably. But it seems that they cared about something more, too. Sadly, at this point, HPHM became what you’re describing: a half assed story with the cover of 'ohh spells and references'. And I hate to say it, but I also think that the fans are partially responsible for that.
I mean, I remember seeing people being like: “Oh I can’t wait when HPMA/HL comes out, so I can leave this shitty game (HPHM)”. And I was always like… You don’t HAVE TO play this game if you don’t enjoy it. I feel like this mentality was actually quite common at some point, especially on Reddit, at least when I was still checking it. But personally, I just don’t get it. You might still like HP without interacting with every single title in the franchise.
But that also brings me to your second thought: capitalism. Because honestly, it’s not just the problem of the HP brand. Let’s take The Sims, for example. People are complaining for years that TS4 is lacking even now when we have dozens of DLCs. There are many new bugs with each pack and many old bugs that needs to be fixed. But it doesn’t matter for EA because they know that people will still buy the next new pack. Why? Because of the brand. And because The Sims has no real competition, at least yet.
Another example: Apple. Personally, I don’t use Apple products so I won’t comment on their quality. But I remember when people talked about the new iPhone without a headphone jack. Again, I don’t know if it actually influenced the quality of a phone in a meaningful way, but it’s rather hard to not see it as a mechanism forcing people to buy wireless headphones. And again, Apple knows they can do that because people will still want to have the iPhone.
So, yeah. Capitalism.
And what a lovely segue to Eat Your Young it is!
Seriously, I love this song! I can’t help it but sway to it every time I hear it. Though I totally feel you – it is absolutely morbid! But it’s that clash that makes it so strong. By the way, my favourite part has to be:
Get some
Pull up the ladder when the flood comes
Throw enough rope until the legs have swung
Seven new ways that you can eat your young
Back in 2019, Hozier was performing on his tour one of his unreleased songs, But The Wages (which many suspects will be on the new full album). And in one video of this song, he said: “If you’re not making the right people uncomfortable you might be wasting your time as a musician”. I feel it’s basically gonna be a subtitle of Unreal Unearth.
And finally: YES, HIS ACCENT! 😄 I’d say I’m quite familiar with it as I listened to some interviews fairly recently (there was Blood Upon Snow not so long ago and now the new EP), but yes! The Irish accent is very lovely! :3
And I write Normal People down as another title to look into because I did hear about it, but I never paid more attention to it.
Anyway, I hope you’re doing well, too! 💖
