a sort of niche trope that i quite enjoy is a character who is so skilled in their weapon mastery that they can turn everyday objects into weapons with ease.

Hello internet!
I'm trying to find more fics where characters fix Hogwarts into a more stable school? Like (not just *if applicable* effects of the Battle ) it also like regular things : curse breaking the DADA curse, exorcism for the history of Magic teacher of something, something to prevent people from falling when the stairs begin to move etc.
I have found some on AO3 like Lockhart’s Blunder by Labgasod ; and Do Not Take Quests at 3AM at a Gas Station; or How A Sensible Person Saves Hogwarts By Implementing An Actual Curriculum and Hiring More Staff by Kalinjdra. But it's such a niche trope on HP fanfics that I can't seem to find more of it. Does anyone have or could find any recs on that trope for me?

love media that’s like- found family but only because they’re literally trapped together. found family but they don’t even like each other in the beginning. forced found family. like we are all completely different types of people and we do not get along but we don’t have a choice to not be around each other. We fight constantly but there’s nowhere else to go and no one else to turn to so we have to be here for each other. we find a kinship in each other not because we like or understand each other, but because we have no other option. and maybe in the end we’re half grateful for that. maybe we find that we care about each other more then we think. maybe it turns out we are a family after all.
i eat that shit right up
#bbc ghosts#dhmis#the amazing digital circus#tadc#dont hug me im scared#its quite a niche trope but god i love it#tadc is still in the “we all hate each other” stage but i have a feeling it’s gonna go in this direction#oh yeah i should also prolly add#ihnmaims

rewatched my old childhood favorite Lion King 2 on the treadmill yesterday, listen Jake is sweating bullets over the Kovu/Simba conflict
#avatar#jake sully#kovu is a1 jake and simba is a2 jake thanks for coming to my ted talk#(ok yeah of course it's not 1:1 but let's just have fun comparing similar ideas and tropes in two movies i like)#i watched lion king 2 sooooooooo many times a kid i swear that movie shaped my personality lol#hmmm actually tlk2 simba is both jake and neytiri simultaneously#jake's protective dad instincts + neytiri's hesitancy to trust the son of the former villain#(yeah yeah i know Kovu isn't actually Scar's biological son because that would make the romance weird but thematically he might as well be)#anyways am I the only person in the world who gives two craps about this very random and extremely niche comparison? POSSIBLY#but this is MY tumble blog gosh darnit i'll post whatever cringe i want

"That isn't enemy's to lovers, that's just Bully x victim!" Okay. Maybe that's what I'm aiming for. Maybe that was my goal. What if I like Bully x victim? Hm? What if I like the trope where someone torments the other because they have the hots for them? HM?

Leo notices one of the little things his boyfriend does for him
Jason was a huge sweetheart. It was a fact that Leo got to know and understand well throughout their relationship. Jason would do such kind, thoughtful things without hesitation like buying him flowers, massaging his shoulders after a long day, and attempting to bake for him after he’s had a bad day. Leo was forever thankful to have such a nice boyfriend.
However, he’d gotten so used to his compassionate acts that he forgot that Jason often did small acts that went unseen. That made him a wonderful boyfriend; he never did nice things to be praised but because he liked making Leo happy, even if he never found out it was him doing them.
Recently, Leo found out about one of those small acts that he did.
Leo hated the cold. It was a fact about him that many dear to him knew. Despite being a human furnace, he got cold very easily. Cuddling with Jason quickly became one of his favorite winter activities. It was a necessity when the temperatures began to drop.
In their apartment, their heating wasn’t the best. It took ages for it to reach their bedroom. Also, Leo was very anxious (and slightly paranoid) when it came to fire safety. He was worried about something going wrong with their heating and their apartment going up in flames. So, he didn’t allow the heating to be turned on when they were asleep or out of the house.
This rule mostly worked well. However, due to their schedules, it made Leo’s morning awful.
Leo and Jason had very similar schedules. The two of them worked on the same days and got off at the same time. Ever since they started dating, Leo would wait after work for Jason and the two would walk home together. However, they went to work at different times. Leo got up for work thirty minutes after Jason left. Since Leo loved sleep and wasn’t a morning person, he refused to get up until he needed to. Jason respected that and made sure he was quiet as he got ready.
Winter mornings were awful for Leo. He’d awake to his alarm blaring as the chill of the season coated his skin. He would wallow in the misery and attempt to hide from the cold under his blankets but to no avail. Eventually, he’d crawl out of his cocoon of blankets and face the coldness of the day. He adored weekends because winter weekends weren’t cold. On the weekends, he’d wake up cuddled up to the body of his muscular, warm boyfriend. Even though Jason’s body ran cold most of the time, he was still a warm-blooded creature who gave off body heat.
However, this year, he noticed that he wouldn’t wake up cold. While it was still cold and he would feel the chill once he left the comfort of his bed, the cold wouldn’t attack him like it had before.
He didn’t understand why until he woke up sick.
When Leo woke up, he noticed two things. The first thing he noticed was that his head was killing him. The second thing that he noticed was that his body hated him and woke him up before Jason even had to get up. He concluded, after quickly checking his forehead, that he must be sick. He would check later when he had to get up for work to see if he had to call in sick or not, but for now he simply whined and cuddled closer to his boyfriend.
While most people would try to stay away from their partners while ill, Leo knew that it was useless to try. While most people had partners who didn’t want to fall sick, Leo had a clingy boyfriend who couldn’t bear to refrain from showering him with affection every second he could. He was like a kid who wanted to do something even more when he was told that he couldn’t do it. No matter how many times Leo would push his face away and tell him that he couldn’t kiss him because he was sick and would cause him to get sick too, Jason wouldn’t listen. He was truly a himbo with no sense of self-preservation.
Leo tried to fall back asleep, but his body hated him. Instead, he stayed awake until Jason’s alarm went off. He was still astounded that Jason could wake up to such a soft noise. It made sense since Jason was a light sleeper.
When he heard the noise of the alarm, he cuddled closer to Jason and tucked his face into the crook of his neck, hoping his warmth and cuddliness could convince him to stay home and not go in for work. Unfortunately, he was unsuccessful. Jason woke up as he normally did. He took a few moments to stay with Leo and run his hands through his hair, but that didn’t last. Eventually, he pried himself away from his clingy partner and went about his morning routine.
Leo stayed in bed, keeping his eyes closed as he tried to force his body back to sleep. Unfortunately, it was unsuccessful, so he listened to Jason’s routine, hoping the soft sounds would lull him back into unconsciousness.
He listened as Jason grabbed a change of clothes and then grabbed something at the foot of the bed before leaving the room. He figured it must’ve been the blanket they kept there. They kept it there in case the temperatures dropped very low and they needed the extra warmth. Despite it being for cold emergencies, Leo realized he’d been waking up with it over him these days. So what was Jason doing with it now?
He listened to the faint sounds of the shower running… and the dryer? What was Jason drying? Were the pants for the day wet and he had to dry them? That must’ve been it. He listened to the sounds of Jason’s day and did his best to guess what he was up to. It was harder than he thought due to Jason slinking around quietly, doing his best not to disturb Leo’s slumber, the dryer rumbling faintly the whole time.
By the time sleep finally began to claw at Leo, Jason was ready for work. The sounds in the background had faded, including that of the dryer. Now, he heard the sound of the bedroom door open and footsteps pad over to him, which confused him. He was about to open his eyes and look at him when he felt lips press against his forehead. “I love you,” Jason whispered before warmth suddenly covered Leo. With that, Jason left the bedroom and then their place.
Leo opened his eyes, confused by the sudden warmth. He looked at where the warmth was coming from and saw the blanket Jason had grabbed. Gears turned in his head before everything clicked into place. Jason had put the blanket in the dryer so it was warm. That way, even after Jason stopped cuddling Leo, he’d be warm. The warmth would last until he needed to get up.
He trailed a hand over the blanket, his cheeks heating up as his heart fluttered. He loved Jason more than he could ever express. What man would do something so small yet so sweet and considerate? He hadn’t even mentioned he did it! Judging by how long Leo has woken up feeling warm with the blanket on him, he’s been at it for a while. He wasn’t sure what to say.
He ended up falling back asleep before being rudely woken up by his alarm. Somehow, despite only half an hour passing, he felt even worse than he had before. He found out he had a fever and called in sick for work. He texted Jason about it. Jason, being the worried and concerned boyfriend that he was, asked if he needed him to come home. Leo denied it and assured him he was fine. After that, he fell back asleep.
When Jason was home and forced Leo to stop making soup for himself and to ‘get his cute ass to bed’, he decided to bring up the whole blanket thing.
“Hey, Superman?” Leo prompted as he watched Jason set away the empty bowl of soup to be washed later.
Jason, ever the worrywart, jumped into action. “Yes, what is it, love? Do you want water? Tea? Toast? More blankets? More pillows? What about medication? Any others that you need?”
Leo shook his head with a small smile. “No, no, you’re good, don’t worry about me. I wanted to ask you about something.
Jason tilted his head. “What is it?”
“Well, these cold mornings… have you been heating up the spare blanket in the dryer?”
Jason blinked as if this was the last thing he expected to be asked about. However, he did reply. “Yes. Why do you ask?”
Now Leo was just as baffled by his blunt answer without any explanation for his actions. “Why do you do it?”
Jason frowned at him. “Because you get cold in the mornings. I didn’t want you to be cold and miserable when you woke up, so I did it one day to see if that helped. That day you didn’t complain about the cold so I kept at it.”
“Why didn’t you ever tell me?” Leo asked. “I only found out today because I woke up feeling like shit.”
“I’m sorry, do you not like it?” Jason asked, sounding confused yet apologetic.
Leo shook his head. “No, I’m just confused.”
“Well… I just wanted to do a nice thing for you to make your life easier. I didn’t want to be praised for something I’d happily do for you without prompting.”
Leo let out a long sigh, taking in his boyfriend. “Seriously, what did I do to be blessed with such a loving saint of a boyfriend?” He mused.
Jason flushed, averting his gaze and rubbing the back of his neck. “Saint? I’m just doing what any other boyfriend would do.”
“Any other boyfriend? You’re cutting yourself short. Any other boyfriend would let me deal with the cold. If I were a teacher, I would say you go above and beyond on your report card. Seriously, you’re so… so wow.” Leo was too sick to be poetic.
Jason let out a soft laugh, looking back at him. “So wow?”
“So wow!” Leo insisted as he nodded his head. “Just… you’re the best.”
“The best over such a small thing?” Jason asked, his smile turning a little teasing. “But that’s not even the only small, unnoticed thing that I do for you.”
“What? You do other things for me? Tell me now!”
“Hmm… I think I’d rather keep you in the dark.”
“Ugh, you’re impossible! You taunt boyfriend? You taunt boyfriend when he’s ill? Oh! Oh! Jail! Jail for boyfriend! Jail for boyfriend for one thousand years!”
Jason began to laugh at Leo’s dramatic recreation of Miette, which caused Leo to laugh too. As Leo’s laughter began to die down, he leaned down and pressed kisses to his forehead, cheeks, nose, and then a brief one against his lips. “Leo.”
“Yeah?”
“You know why I don’t tell you I do these things?”
“Why?”
“Because I want you to be able to feel loved throughout your day. I want you to feel the love without ever knowing it was me or that I did it. I don’t want to be thanked, I simply want to love you in silence. Even if you don’t know it’s done out of love, the love is still there. Even when you can’t see it, the love is there. When I’m not here, the remnants of my love persist.”

pouring one out for luo binghe in my disciple SQQ fic, poor guy has taken a backseat here. we're nearly 30k words deep and he hasn't even shown his face once. it'll be much longer before he even actually talks to Shen Qingqiu.
(i say im pouring one out but in reality im sitting in my director's chair chewing on a cigar and wearing a beret as he tearily and unsuccessfully pleads with me for more scenes with Shen Qingqiu)
#svsss#disciple shen yuan#scum villain#shen qingqiu#shen yuan#SQQ: building his found family on QJP and Plotting#LBH: idk off sniffing rocks somewhere while on one of his protagonist adventures#i say im pouring one out for him but in reality im laughing at him. sorry my guy you are just NOT my priority. be a better peak lord#tell your disciples to stop with the institutionalized peak hierarchy and the internal political intrigue and MAYBE we'll talk#oh he cant hear me he's wearing airpods. welp. *stares at LQG and YQY* more SQQ time for you then!#its funny because i do love bingqiu i just decided to write a fic exploring a roleswap concept i saw where LBH wasnt a good peak lord#and the concept itself didnt explore what consequences might occur if LBH was as inactive a PL as LQG was before redeeming him#like if BZP can go lord of the flies while unsupervised what happens if you leave QJP the same way?? political court intrigue and sabotage#being the protagonist and going on many adventures is great and all.... if you aren't tied down with the responsibilities of a peak lord.#binghe. binghe. binghe. binghe. your head disciple has instated a hierarchy on your peak and routinely sabotages the cultivation of the#junior disciples by actively disrupting their learning by sending them off to do menial chores that should be distributed equally across#the peak. binghe. he's gonna get someone killed. binghe. BINGHE. you're inadvertently creating a generation of cultivators who harbor#resentment against you specifically bc you failed to care and protect them as their shizun. BINGHE. DO YOU HEAR ME? BINGHE#oop. i guess not. SQQ time to organize a covert resistance group. i mean a secret study group that also doubles as an organization dedicate#to ruining Li Tao's reputation and standing amongst the rest of the sect. by boys! have fun storming the castle!#tldr unsweetened lemonade is: 'i force SQQ into a position of no power where keeping his head down is not an option bc neither the system#+ nor his surrounding peakmates will let him fade into the BG. and there's no LBH around for him to wifebeam into the Fave Disciple spot'#its also a 'SY and SJ are the same person' fic bc i love the trope and having a disciple SY where he's also SJ is such a specific niche#that i'll just have to write it myself in order to see it. im having a blast with it. im gonna give him SO much found family.#liushen and yueshen(? qijiu?) are fighting for 1st while poor bingqiu is trying to claw its way out of 3rd with minimal success#good fucking luck babe you gotta fight SQQ's seven evil disciples first. THEN you gotta fight Liu Qingge and Yue Qingyuan.#and then you gotta fight me. romance isnt even in the cards for this fic they're fighting for the SUBTEXT.#roll for disadvantge binghe

#whump#whump tropes#whump poll#this or that poll#maybe a bit niche but i think its interesting bc i havent thought about it much#like the realization when they thought someone came for them but turns out it didnt happen? devastating#or not cooperating with rescuers bc they dont think its real? the possibilities..#just realized the wording in the poll options might be a lil confusing sorry lol

tfw u wanna write more fics, but u feel like u used every possible word and sentence in your other fics already. i have no more words in me to use. people will KNOW it’s just the same story i’ve written already but the words are just rearranged. they’re gonna knowww
#i say this as if i haven’t specifically had fave writers because they have a niche#where they write one trope really well and it shows up in all their fics#but STILL i’m just faking this writing thing every time.#jennilargh
