#rabastan & dawn

[cxpectopatronum]

“Hm, you must be very brave to mention his name. Or very foolish.”

—¿Por qué? Es el nombre del auror, ¿no? Frank Longbottom, sólo leía su nombre —exclamó al leer al mencionado en la sección del periódico mágico. ¿Acaso se había reído de su desaparición? No, no lo recordaba. Se habría visto "obligado" a celebrar un comentario purista, seguramente, pero ¿a cuál no estos días o en toda su vida?

rabastan & dawn : @thcgoodwitch

[cxpectopatronum]

Cierto. Estaba hablando con la capitana del equipo. Una amable o con tiempo libre, no estaba seguro. Aunque la recordaba, tenía que admitir que no esperaba que se dedicara a la profesión de manera profesional. Qué curioso, la vida laboral en una sorpresa, ajá. —Eso veo, aquí todas las personas son muy amables —exclamó sarcástico—. Adelante, me gustaría saber cómo es la vida de una capitana —instó—, por favor —agregó fingiéndose nada interesado cuando en realidad sí lo estaba. No pretendía cambiar de profesión, después de todo.

A Dawn le causó gracia el comentario. No era el primero, tampoco el último, que la insultaba. Si no era por sus orígenes, era por su género, y si no era por eso, encontraban cualquier otra razón para rebajarla. Estaba acostumbrada. ― No creo que sea así. Por algo estoy aquí. Soy la capitana de mi equipo ―y no era un puesto que se ganara fácilmente. Se había esforzado bastante para conseguir llegar a la cima―. Pero es tu opinión, la respeto. Si deseas puedes hablar con alguien más, estoy segura que estarán encantados de atenderte ―inevitablemente su tono, aunque cordial, guardaba un poco de burla. Era de esperarse, años y años de malos tratos la habían convertido en alguien que, lejos de molestarse, le divertía ser subestimada.

where: lestrange manor - few days later who: @r-lestrcnge

It would appear that Alecto Carrow was a glutton for punishment, discovering that her sadistic side per chance held a tiny masochist one as well. Rather evident the torment she placed upon herself in his presence, unbeknownst to said wizard. A dawning realisation, an epiphany, a break-through, that revealed Rabastan Lestrange in a whole new manner.

Subjecting herself to subtle glances perched on his bed, back against the headboard with a book in hand, observing him move around the room in a vest. Invasive thoughts diluting her concentration, fixated on indents of muscles covering his arms, Merlin help her when he was shirtless, desperately wishing to let her hands roam over his sculpted chest and stomach, exploring him to her hearts content.

She cursed him under her breath, sulking out of the room and down to the kitchen. With his strength slowly returning, he would take to his study to work, despite the protests of his parents. It was in his blood to work, a compulsion to keep his mind engrossed and keep his hands from being idle. Characteristics they both shared. Dumbledore had expressed his concern for her full recovery before returning.

A tray held in her hands, an assortment of delicatessen, including the infamous Madeleine's, and a potion drink to help with their strength, Alecto found herself outside his study. She prayed to Morgana he was dressed appropriately, for her own sanity. "I'm coming in." A warning, using her knee to keep the tray upright, waving her hand to open the door, promptly taking hold once more. A hip pushed into the wooden object.

Rabastan was found where she expected, tucked behind his desk with parchment surrounding him. "I bring food." A faint smile pulls on her lips. A few strides place the silver tray on a small table between two chairs. "Join me." A more hidden demand in her tone, food would replenish his strength, and he had a nasty habit of neglecting basic needs. Alecto gracefully descends into one of the high back lounge chairs, stern eyes narrow in warning in his direction.

Agony

@microficmay Day 9

Bellatrix was drowning in agony. It had started as a small drop of it when the Dark Lord left for Godric’s Hollow without her, despite his promises that everything would be fine and, when he returned, they’d celebrate both her birthday and his ultimate victory. More drops of it had followed, their frequency increasing with every hour he did not return until the agony was a steady trickle and then a roaring waterfall, filling her up until she choked on it. As the earliest hint of dawn began to lighten the sky, she could bear it no longer and set out for Godric’s Hollow, cloaked by a Disillusionment Charm. There she found the Potters’ house in ruins but no sign of her Master or the baby he had believed he was destined to destroy. Her agony and fear had crescendoed into a tidal wave, crashing down over her head, dragging her away from everything she knew and into unknown depths.

Unsure what else to do, she’d gone to Lestrange Manor, woken Rodolphus and Rabastan and told them she feared something terrible had happened to their Lord. Not long after, Barty had arrived in a panic, saying his father had just returned from the Ministry reporting that the Dark Lord had been defeated. “Defeated?” Rabastan asked, dumbstruck. “You don’t mean like….?” “He’s not dead!” Bellatrix had snarled before he could finish the sentence. “Bella…” Rodolphus spoke with an infuriatingly gentle voice and reached out to lay a hand on her shoulder, although he’d pulled it back at her glare. “It sort of sounds like…I mean…why else wouldn’t he have returned?” “He’s not dead,” she had repeated. “He can’t die. I know it. He’s out there somewhere and we need to find him!”

None of them had asked how she could be so sure, which was lucky since she wasn’t about to disclose the secret of her beloved’s horcruxes and wasn’t in the right frame of mind to make up a convincing lie. Perhaps they thought she was in some sort of hysterical, grief-driven denial and were simply humoring her. Barty, at least, seemed nearly as distraught as she was and quickly agreed that they should search for their lost master. “But where?” Rabastan asked hopelessly. And then it had come to her.

“The other baby,” she’d whispered. “What baby?” Rodolphus asked suspiciously. “There were two babies the prophecy about the one who may pose a danger to the Dark Lord could have applied to. One was the Potters’, of course, but the other was the Longbottoms’. He had always planned to take out both, but I thought he was going to space out the attacks.” That must have been what happened. Elated by the elimination of the Potters, the Dark Lord had decided to go ahead and check off that other troublesome box on his to-do list. Get the whole thing done with at once. “If we find the Longbottoms, we find him.”

It hadn’t been easy. As they were both Aurors, the Longbottoms knew a thing or two about concealing themselves from dark forces but there was nothing that could stop four of the Dark Lord’s most dedicated and dangerous servants forever. Not when Bellatrix had devoted a single-minded focus and all of her waking hours to hunting them down. Now, finally, after the worst few days of her life, the four of them stood outside the Longbottom’s house. For the first time in what felt like ages, Bellatrix felt a tiny glimmer of hope break through the agony. At last, she had at last found targets she could channel all that agony into so that they would be forced to bear it instead of her.

STARTER. ft. Andromeda & Narcissa

Andromeda knocks three times on the large, ornamental door. 

Its intricate pattern was so familiar she could draw it in her sleep, but just as each time she stands before it, Andy begins tracing it with the tip of her fingers as she waits for her youngest sister. 

First knock.

The witch drags in a slow and heavy breath. Everyone would be gone and asleep by now, as she had been. But the brunette had been tossing and turning on her bed, getting up and laying back down. Thought after thought tangled in her mind, prickling her skin. Andromeda did not understand how she was supposed to sleep knowing what she knows now - what she overheard. 

And for Circe’s sake, she’s so goddamn tired of doing nothing about it all. 

Shouldn’t she wait, though, for Cissy to tell her the truth? What would she say when she got to her door -- did she even have any right to talk to her about it? 

Second knock, her head leaning in slightly to try and hear if she can catch the pace of her breath. 

“ Cissy? ” she asks in a soft, low whisper. She doesn’t mean for anyone else to find her here tonight except for the young blonde witch.

Scratch that -- Andromeda cannot afford for anyone to find her, especially her family’s long-time guest. The memory alone of Rabastan sitting in silence next to her - letting her just... be and being with her - made flinch, an ache dawning on her chest and lump in her throat, and she wraps her arms instinctively around herself. She’d cry for so long in his arms, Andromeda was sure she’d wasted away every bit of water in her body. But it's partly due to that night that she can stand here, before Narcissa’s bedchambers with a somewhat composed disposition. 

Andy closes her eyes and drags in another breath, and knocks again. 

“ Cissy -- ” she says a little louder this time. “ It’s me - Meda. Can I… Can I sleep with you tonight? ” 

The words taste so familiar in her tongue, they soothe and burn at the same time. How many nights had they spent hidden in each other’s bedroom? A recent memory dawns in her mind’s eye, of only a few weeks ago when her sister came to her, asking for the exact same thing of her. GODS - even then, Cissy knew what had happened to her. Who had hurt her. Did she always remember? From the time she opened her eyes, even? Andromeda has racked through her brain day and night for the last few days, trying to recall what sign she had missed - how, for fuck’s sake, had she missed at that Narcissa remembered that Bella attacked her that night. 

Even now, tonight, how can Cissy wake up and go to bed in her fancy chamber, in their damnably beautiful and frigid manor, knowing what she knows? 

“ I come with presents. ” She stops drawing the design on the door, and swings the neck of the bottle she’d been holding on her left hand for emphasis. “ Cissy? Are you awake? ”

dusk till dawn by zayn feat sia (cover by ben schuller)

Rabastan nunca havia sido uma pessoa carinhosa, nunca havia sentido necessidade de ter outra pessoa por perto. Vivia sozinho, e bem. Nos anos preso, nos dias na solitária, sabia conviver com sua solidão. Desde a primeira vez em que saíra com Richard como mais do que apenas um cliente, porém, sentia certa necessidade de tê-lo por perto. Ali em sua casa, deitados no grande estofado da sala com o sol entrando por entre a grande janela de vidro, Rabastan encarava a face do menor como se ele fosse a coisa mais bonita que já havia visto na vida - e realmente era. Tocou a bochecha dele com a ponta dos dedos, um carinho mínimo assim como o sorriso em seu rosto. "Você sabe que... hm. Sempre vou estar aqui. Você pode vir sempre que quiser."

[xantoninxdolohovx]

"To loyalty." Antonin raised his glass in turn, taking a drink and matching Rabastan’s gaze so as not to sully the toast.  “Though I wish it wasn’t so rare a thing that it’s health had to be toasted by us.” “You know your brother is an old friend of mine, and I would trust him with my life, his wife seems interesting, I’ve only met her cursorily, but loyal enough.  Onto more interesting subjects, we’ve discussed love, and death, what is left but money?   Any interesting investments lately.  Mine have been hit or miss, at least the interesting ones.  Be careful betting on quidditch is all I’ll say.”  He shook his head thinking of lost potential galleons.

“Or perhaps exotic creatures?  I’ve heard menageries are a sound investment these days at least as far as price is concerned, though the things themselves can be a bit unstable, and sentiment is split over the qualifying of them, interesting properties to some, though not really my area of expertise mucking magical stables.  Perhaps I’ve finally found something I would delegate to house elves, creatures in their own right aren’t they?”  He was quiet, but something dawned on him slowly and unsettlingly.  “I swear conversations with you and your brother lately seem to always settle on them, if I didn’t know any better I would swear he put you up to it.”

Attuned to Antonin's spell, Rabastan watched him speak despite the clarity of his softly murmured words. He respected his wish to speak about this elsewhere, though he did not fear being overheard. There were other methods to ensure privacy. But he did not agree with Antonin's assessment of Rodolphus and Bellatrix. Rabastan would trust none more greatly. They were efficient and skilled, merciless and swift. But they would fulfil the Dark Lord's orders, no matter how greatly they wished to indulge in personal vengeance. If they were required to capture but not kill, then that is precisely what they would do. He resolved to speak with them nonetheless, though he could not yet reveal the scheme's full details.

Ignoring the vague dizziness until it passed, he reached for another sweet snack and faintly exhaled, amused. "I am not interested in Bella's hobbies. But she is worthy of the Lestrange name, and for that I care greatly. She and Rodolphus are strong together." In truth, he was uninterested in their marital dynamics. As long as Rodolphus was content, all was well.

"That might be the most pertinent thing you've said all night, Dolohov." Tilting his glass, he toasted. "To loyalty."

🔁 and ✨ for the ask game!

Thank you! These are all different Narcissa ships which I think is deeply in character for me.

Fic rec ask game

🔁 A fic you’ve re-read several times

I'm gonna cheat and give two bc I couldn't choose.

The Burning Edge of Dawn (by @stonecoldhedwig) - Rabastan/Narcissa, M, 7424 words. It's gorgeous, and I just really love the tragedy of this rarepair. It's a beautiful friends to lovers with unhappy endings all around and it hurts my soul so of course I have to read it again and again. Highly recommend.

Once Upon a Dream (by Elfflame) - Sirius/Narcissa, E, 5280 words. This one I mainly come back to occasionally because it's the very first fic I read of this ship and it really jumpstarted my obsession lmao. It doesn't even really match my own vision of them anymore, but I don't care. It's just a very nice masquerade fic where they're both kinda aware of who the other is but pretending not to know so they have an excuse to continue. It's sweet, it's painful, it's canon compliant so yknow. Love it.

(Both these fics, funnily enough, have in common that Lucius Malfoy is not Draco's biological father)

✨ A fic you wish you could read again for the first time

Extinction (by @rubikanon) - Narcissa/Hermione, M, 200K. I read this back in 2018 and it got me into cissamione without ever expecting it. I saw a link on tumblr, thought "what the actual fuck?", then curiosity got the better of me and I ended up staying up until 5am to finish it. I would just really love to read it again for the first time, just to see if it has the same effect on me now. It was SO much fun reading it for the first time.

[chaoswillfallrpg]

LARKIN MULCIBER is TWENTY-THREE YEARS OLD and a SOLIDER in THE DARK LORDS ARMY at THE DEATH EATER’S HEADQUARTERS. He looks remarkably like WOO DO-HWAN and considers himself aligned with THE DEATH EATERS. He is currently OPEN.

→ OVERVIEW:

tw: abuse, blood, death, animal death

The king of shadows and gold, Larkin Mulciber is the chilled shiver running down the back of necks, the ominous dread held in unwelcome prying eyes and a manipulative puppeteer toying with his unwilling victims strings. While deemed psychotic by most, he was never always so twisted. Born to KYUNG MULCIBER, a man as hateful as he was cunning, Kyung single handedly raised his youngest in disgrace. Bred a tormented soul, Larkin was branded the Grim Reaper. YEONG YANG, his mother and the light of Kyung’s life, took her last breath at Larkin’s first, casting bitterness into the family's hearts. Without a single word of kindness, Larkin was resented by those supposed to grace him with care. Interactions were met with hostility and volatile anger; even from the likes of the house elves who once idealised their mistress. Growing in the fall of his mother’s glory, hidden in the secluded mountains of the Lake District enchanted barriers kept the Mulciber manor secluded from unwelcome guests. Isolated and with a severe lack of love, Larkin’s youth was spent whispering secrets to spiders dangling off chandeliers; while his father secluded himself to the west wing never to be disturbed. With his father absent and cold, Larkin tried earnestly to grasp onto pieces of a parent. Hours spent by candle light in the family library, from archives detailed in gold and towering family portraits, he formed a fragmented image. A woman once powerful, resilient and beautiful, illuminated in piercing emeralds that matched her eyes; his late mother. Someone he thought could have loved him, if only Morgana had been kind.

With wealth and a line as Pure-Blooded as those belonging to The Sacred-Twenty Eight, the family reveled in a deep rooted sense of entitlement. Renowned for possessing an aptitude for the dark arts, purist rhetoric was laced in their lives from dusk till dawn. Breeding chaos, while Kyung praised ERIS and JAE in glory, Larkin was cursed into darkness and strife. Companion only to those who too grew in neglect, spiders, bats and screeching owls looked upon the bruised boy of woe with sorrow, offering comfort. Just like his siblings Larkin was taught not what beauty magic held, but what power. Growling voices with a tone as sharp as poison scorned him, disapproving glares reflected in the shattered mirrored walls of the Mulciber ballroom turned training arena, distorted and manic as his father’s teachings turned cruel. Harnessing darkness, unregistered Gregorovitch wands concealed their illegal activities from the Ministry of Magic, enabling them to continue their legacy of turmoil and devastation all while slipping through the grasps of the law. The eldest Eris, named after the goddess of chaos and strife herself, channeled internalised anger into the cruel art of the Cruciatus curse. Second born, Jae’s handsome features acted as the perfect deception for the master of death; with Avarda Kavarda being his speciality. Leaving Larkin to master the complexity of the mind and the Imperius curse. Divine and divisive, the family were notorious for playing Merlin himself as they manipulated powers beyond their control. Together, the trio made a master of sin and torment. 

Desperate for gratification and to be seen in the same glory as his siblings, Larkin’s sensibility grew cruel in a plight to prove his worth. Cursing the house elves with a flick of his finger, he left them dangling on the ceiling with a twisted grin all for a glimmer of respect to flicker in his fathers eyes. The more souls he puppertered, the more praise he received. Forging himself into a sinner in a plea to gain what he could only dream of; acceptance from his father. While his siblings attended Dumstrung, Kyung expressed that Larkin's talents would be better suited to that of Hogwarts. Speaking tales of a heroic wizard whom he had once schooled with know as THE DARK LORD, Kyung spoke of a new world where those inferior would finally know their place. Entrusted on a quest to befriend like minded sorcerers, Larkin vowed to find those as equally wicked. Cunning as the devil, the sorting hat barely graced his head before announcing his rightful place in Slytherin. Strong willed and determined, he basked in the notorious nature of his family's legacy. Gaining respect from the likes of PERSEPHONE, NEPHTHYS and RABASTAN for his damming schemes and competent hexes; Larkin was renowned as the king of chaos. Joint in arms, JASPAR AVERY was from a reputable family, though entitled he held little promise in Larkin’s eyes of matching his wits; but made a reputable ally. Second in their ranks was SEVERUS SNAPE, an odd wizard with an aptitude for potions, despite his scorned Half-Blood status, his intellect was more akin to his own. Donned in their Slytherin uniform, the trio quickly became notoriously known for their vile pranks on those they deemed unworthy to study magic. 

Basking in others misfortune and consumed with desire to appease his family, Larkin fell into a suffocating kingdom of darkness. That was, until he met them. MARY MACDONALD was everything he wasn’t. Kind hearted with a warm disposition, if Larkin was the king of the underworld, Mary was the beautiful wix dancing in golden fields above. A Muggle-Born and adored friend of annoyances JAMES, SIRIUS, REMUS and PETER, Jaspar dared him to bring the sweet creature to ruin in their cruelest scheme yet. What had started as a ploy to break the wix’s heart, turned into a secret relationship hidden in the shadows of the clocktower. Despite himself, he fell in love with Mary. Intoxicated by their light and the only person to ever bring warmth to his cold heart, Larkin grew desperate in his attempts to keep their love a secret. Anonymous letters and aloof passings, despite efforts to conceal their passion Nephthys caught a stolen glimpse between the pair one cold December night. Outraged that he’d betrayed the sanctity of magic, she deemed him a blood-traitor for his evident adoration for a filthy mudblood. Threatening to expose his fraternization with her wand pointed to his throat, Larkin became agonisingly aware that even the rumor of affection would leave Mary dead by dawn. Never knowing a monster that they were unable to love, Larkin knew Mary would be obstinate in their belief that love conquered all. But with Nepthys threats lingering over his head, logically he knew the only way to guarantee their safety was to make an example of them. 

Plotting in an aid to set them free and comforted in the knowledge it would merely put Mary into a dreamlike state; Larkin encapsulated them in his arms and stole one last kiss before uttering ‘Imperio’. Instantly Mary’s love faded to a vacant expression; leaving them completely at his disposal. Encouraged by Jasper’s twisted grin, they left torment in their wake. Killing Flinch’s cat, Mary’s hands covered in blood, they set to their final destination of The Black Lake. Floating like Ophelia with their lace dress billowing around them, Larkin was moments from sinking Mary briefly into the water’s dark depths when LILY EVANS made her presence known. Concentration broken, Mary’s piercing screams of terror echoed around the grounds cutting Larkin’s heart like a knife. Quickly expelled, he left Hogwarts donned a hero by purists alike. But for once, he didn’t feel pride in his actions, instead, remorsed in sorrow of the consequences. Finishing his final years of education at Durmstrung, Larkin’s dove into his studies with cruel intent. Donned a lone wolf by peers such as MEI-LING FALKOV and JUDAH ILLIOTT, while the school harboured those residing in darkness; none held Larkin’s unique sense of chaos. Wandless magic for unforgivable curses was rare and known by few, including the Muclibers who left many pleading for mercy with a mere curl of their hand. Seeking power in destruction, those that feared him donned him a monster. Stalking dark alleys in his black jacket embossed with scales, Larkin sunk his teeth into the pits of hell daring it to fight back. Gone were the flowers Mary had once laid, left only an empty chasm of a man; unhinged and dangerous with little left to lose. 

While his relatives prided their superiority through status, Larkin’s renowned talents made him a vital recruit into The Dark Lord’s army. Graduating, Larkin has become an esteemed member in the fight for the new world. Settling on the outer banks of London with a heart rotted black, darkness swarms like a whirlpool in his chest. His free time spent lingering in the shadows playing with the minds of the undeserving, tarantula resting on his shoulder. Under the orders of CASTOR and BELLATRIX, Larkin is gathering information on those who could cause complications to The Dark Lord’s plans. Sniffing out Blood-Traitors, Larkin is playing the unsuspected in a plight to move up in the ranks. GILFRED ABBOTT, was the perfect victim for his scheme. Suspecting little when questions from Larkin’s lips instead left the young Gryffindor’s; his sweet demeanour acts as the perfect mask to torment. Though as charmed as his antics are, he has his sights set on bigger fish; DOUGAL, COINNEACH, NATHAIR and MARLENE MCKINNON, a family seeking to devalue Pure-Blood legacy by allowing a Muggle-Born into their ranks was the perfect target to finally bring him to glory. Fueled by underlying jealousy at their free love, Larkin is scheming to ruin the family from the inside. Word from REGINA ROWLE, reveals Nathair as the wizard who reported the recent prophecy to the Ministry. While the other McKinnon siblings shout for equality, Larkin has his eyes set on the brother that prefers the shadows than the light. Calculating his plans, he knows Nathair will be the undoing of the family, if only he pulls on the right set of strings.

LARKIN MULCIBER IS A LEVEL 7 WIZARD.

Las jóvenes cerraron rápidamente la puerta tras de sí, generando pánico en el interior del cuarto. Ahora sí que habrían llamado la atención de los mortifagos. Dawn sostuvo la respiración, mirando a su alrededor, en búsqueda de un nuevo plan. "No, debe... Debe haber donde podamos escondernos" las personas comenzaron a moverse de un lado a otro y en ese momento la rubia creyó escuchar pasos acercarse. "Abajo de la cama, vamos" le indicó al contrario, agachándose hasta deslizarse por debajo del mueble. Tenían que ser rápidos.

No estaba seguro si el miedo causó esa reacción o fueron las palabras de la rubia. Ah, ¿la reconocía? No podía decirlo con seguridad. Dos chicas, completamente histéricas, se levantaron y fueron directo a la puerta, dispuestas a ubicar cualquier otro sitio seguro. ―Genial, ahora sí moriremos ―alegó sarcástico. O él no, o quizá sí, qué divertida la ruleta de la muerte en estos casos.

The night sky glimmered with dancing stars, the shimmer of the moon bestowed the luminous shine that outlined the silhouette of the petite witches frame. Slender fingers rest upon the stone railing that was enclosed around the balcony off of Rabastan's room. Time had passed, an inner struggle revealed the truth she so desperate sought after, and with the dawning realisation of inevitable chances, the hour had approached to face that fork in her path.

Soft auburn curls cascade, framing her facial features, highlighting a more delicate side to the usual stoic witch. A crimson robe enveloped her form, concealing the matching chemise which hugged her soft curves. She stood barefoot, listening to the beating of her heart like a sweet lullaby, waiting for the one she wished to give her final confession to appear.

This territory foreign, that another feeling emerged from the chaos within her. Alecto was scared to lose the one who completed her in ways that none could. The thought of another on his arm brought powerful emotions that painted her only unravelling. A risk worth taking, and in the pit of her stomach, she knew it would weigh in her favour.

The soft creak of glass doors opening pulled her from her invasive thoughts, languidly turning to find him standing under the frame of the doorway, and she was enchanted by the allure of the man who possessed her. How she never saw him in this manner until now baffled her. Rabastan Lestrange was everything she ever desired and fear kept her from exploring this side of them.

This fear would no longer exist in her world.

"Rabastan," she whispers his name in a sultry tone, gently closing the distance between them until she settles in front of him. "We need to talk." Time to set her sins free.
