#snidget-vine

[cursedwithwords]

HP Next Gen Headcanons: Lysander

Full Name: Lysander Newton Scamander

House: Ravenclaw

Wand: vine and snidget feather

Patronus: irish wolfhound

Boggart: Lily and/or Lorcan's dead bodies (they are the most important people in his life)

Profession: auror

Sexuality: straight

Image(picrew):

Bonus: keeps his hair shorter and neater than his brother and wears glasses. The real oddball in his family because he's a more serious, no nonsense person while his parents and brother are generally pretty chill in most situations. Animals do NOT like him, which outsiders see as unbelievable because he's related to THE Newt Scamander (fucking hates when people say that)! Everyone knew he had a crush on Lily, including Lily, accept for him. He was literally the last to know. Extremely protective of Lorcan. Not the best in social situations and has difficulty making friends because he word vomits when he's nervous and comes off as a know-it-all. Is actually a huge softie. He loves learning but he HATES studying outside the classroom (he's got better things to do if you ask him). He also hates taking tests. Loves hugs but will never admit it. Wants to be cool but is not. He grew up around the Weasley and Potter kids so they're the only ones he feels comfortable being entirely himself around without worrying about being judged. Spends a lot of his later school years fretting over how useless he is with Magical Beasts and not knowing what to do with himself after graduation until Lily reminds him that just because he comes from a line of Magizoologists it doesn’t mean he was required to follow their footsteps. He chose to be an Auror because of his aptitude with defensive and offensive spells, and because "someone needs to protect my parents and Lorcan, they're all way too soft hearted for their own good". Doesn't get along well with Rose because she seems to look down on Lorcan (reminiscent of how hermione acted around luna pre friendship).

Wand Wood — vine

Extras:

"Vine wands are among the less common types, and I have been intrigued to notice that their owners are nearly always those witches or wizards who seek a greater purpose, who have a vision beyond the ordinary and who frequently astound those who think they know them best. Vine wands seem strongly attracted by personalities with hidden depths, and I have found them more sensitive than any other when it comes to instantly detecting a prospective match. Reliable sources claim that these wands can emit magical effects upon the mere entrance into their room of a suitable owner, and I have twice observed the phenomenon in my own shop."

This wand had been sitting on the shelf for many, many years before Lysabder came along. It was created before the Olivander's had decided to focus on crafting just with the two cores we currently know best (dragon heartstring and unicorn hair), so it was something special when Lysander stepped through the door. Tucked at the back of a high shelf and hidden by dozens of other boxes, Lysander's wand began shaking in its box before he'd even entered the shop. When he finally stepped through the threshold, boxes burst from the shelf from the wands eagerness, and Olivander was absolutely fascinated when he saw the vine wand shaking in its box. People generally seem to believe they know who Lysander is due to his familiar family name and eccentric parentage, but Lysander is consistently surprising people with his goals and motivations (such as his decision to join the aurors).

Wand Core — snidget feather

"These wand cores are extremely rare due to the Snidget's protected status. Wands with a Snidget Feather core excel in Charms, Potions, Dueling, and the ability to cast spells faster than most other wand cores. The major drawback with this wand core is its inability to perform proper Transfiguration spells. These wands will bond with a witch or wizard who has a glorious and fulfilling future ahead of them."

A wand seemingly made for an auror, this one aids Lysander from the moment he first takes it up. It is much less powerful in someone else's hand, and only shows its full potential with its chosen partner. Lysander is a talented wizard, and consistently shows that. He's a powerful auror, and is always the first to volunteer for field missions if an auror has not yet been assigned to it. Eager to change the things within the ministry that bother him the most and build a world that can be experienced by everyone without prejudice (a tall order, perhaps, but he is ambitious and motivated about his goals).

Patronus — Irish wolfhound

"Irish wolfhounds are reserved, soft-spoken, and patient creatures. Those with this Patronus exhibit a quiet inner strength that helps them remain calm even in the most stressful situations. However, this Patronus is not one you should ever underestimate. While they have deep stability, they are not afraid to fight back and defend themselves if you mess with them or their loved ones."

"The AKC identifies the wolfhound breed as dignified, courageous and calm, with a famous motto of "gentle when stroked, fierce when provoked." Considered one of the largest dog breeds in the world, as puppies they're quite gangly and clumsy, but they grow into what I consider to be one of the most visually intimidating and stunning dogs on earth."

I always consider Lysander to be quite similar to the Wolfhound, in that as a kid he was somewhat clumsy and awkward, but is able to grow into himself and become a powerful and intimidating but outrageously gentle man. The statement of the Wolfhound being alert and courageous but not suspicious or aggressive feels very on the nose to me, because it seems like the ideal way to be as an Auror. Lysander is dignified, calm and very focused. He has the unexpected ability to always make the right choice during missions. He isn't short tempered or "finger on the trigger" so to speak. He would never throw out a curse or spell without thinking first.

Lysander is absolutely an intimidating presence when he's older and an impressive auror, but he's gentle with his loved ones to the point or coddling almost. It would take a lot to upset him, but god help you if you cross that line.

Everly’s Diary - Entry #33

Synopsis: Eve reveals what became of the cursed organ, and details her newfound hobby - Seeking!

Words: 1,160

Date: 3rd of November, 2026

Dear Diary, 

So… some bad stuff has happened. A lot of bad stuff. But I got through it and I’m okay, and now the good stuff is happening! 

After I finished my last entry, I put on the special earmuffs we use when we’re handling mandrakes and went to sleep. But, they slipped off of my head! I woke up in the middle of the night hearing my mother’s voice over the organ music, singing that one nursery rhyme - ‘You are my sunshine, my only sunshine…’ Anyways, I’m always way more emotional when I’m sleepy, so this just… It made me feel overwhelmingly sad. I started crying, I missed my mom so much, and so I got out of bed and began to follow it.

The castle is different after curfew. I don’t remember a whole lot about it, because it was so late, but it was so much quieter. During the day, you hear doors slamming, the echoes of voices in the hallways, spells being cast, books being read and written in. All sorts of noises! The only noises I heard then, though, was the distant grind of the stone on the moving staircases, the snoring of the enchanted portraits, and occasionally the voices of lonely ghosts.

It was also so dark! I hadn’t grabbed my wand, not that I could cast lumos if I tried, so I walked through in complete darkness, just following the sounds of my mother’s singing. I’m surprised none of the prefects or professors stopped me, but it was almost like her voice was guiding me through the castle. Maybe the organ knew the path I needed to take?

Anyways, eventually I ended up in the clocktower, and I was sort of… I wasn’t physically pulled but it was like my soul was being pulled. So I stepped into the organ’s cage, and then there was a burning feeling, and I fell asleep. When I woke up, it felt sort of like a dream, but as if my dreams were mixed with reality. I already have really vivid dreams about adventures, but in this one, I felt the weight of gravity and I could feel everything that happened to me. 

I woke up in a maze. A dark, creepy one, in a place I didn’t recognize. For a long time, I was just running through this maze, and I was so, so exhausted. I was being chased by these vines and branchy hands that eventually wrapped around me and caught me. And then I was put in a cage inside of a tree that was filled with crystal apples and… I don’t remember anything else that happened in the maze after that. 

I woke up in the hospital wing, with Bonnie and two other Ravenclaws standing over me - Lynessa and Jesma, I think their names were. I was covered in blood and my body felt so sore and I was still so tired even though I felt like I’d woken up from a year-long sleep. Ruby showed up, and he stayed by my bed all night long, holding my hand which was… really nice. Bonnie also gave me another unicorn plushie to hold onto. 

Sila moved the divider that was next to my bed and revealed that Aures was in the bed next to me. She went after me into the organ! I knew Professor Vikander had been caught in the organ, but I didn’t know if anyone else had. Apparently, three other people were caught as well, including the Deputy Headmistress. Aures told me she wrote me a song, and then fell asleep. I fell asleep soon after her.

I’m glad I don’t remember a whole lot about my time spent in the organ, but what I do remember bothers me and still scares me to think about, even though the organ is gone now. Apparently, the whole school banded together to banish it, which set everyone free, and then everyone got their voices back when people stole the crystal apples from the organ. Ruby was saying people were falling asleep and being sucked into the castle, and when they came back, they had apples! So bizarre to think about. Magic can be really complicated sometimes.

Everyone woke up the next day to cauldrons full of candy from the Headmistress. It turns out that the night the organ was destroyed was Halloween, which means I was trapped in that organ for… Four days? I think. I’ve been focusing on school and my friends ever since then. I’ve also been focusing on quidditch! 

Hufflepuff’s captain is a boy by the name of Nate Phoenix. He’s older than me, but I can’t remember if he’s a fourth or a fifth year. I’ve been practicing catching the snitch, which has been really fun, and makes me remember when I was reading about snidgets! I’ve also been trying to take care of the broom that Professor O’Rourke assigned us, but it’s been a bit hard. 

I think I’m going to try out for the quidditch team, and try out for seeker. I don’t know if I’m good enough for the position, but I’ll try my best, and see if they like me enough to keep me. Flying gives me such a thrill, and I love chasing the snitch. I guess I’m just worried about falling off of my broom or getting hit by bludgers. I almost ran into the stands, even, because I was chasing the snitch and I wasn’t paying attention! 

Anyways, that’s all I have for now. The castle has become peaceful again, now that the organ is gone. I need to remember to see about getting that plant for Professor Vikander. I’ve been focusing on staying positive and looking forward to the future. I still have nightmares about the organ and the maze sometimes, but I know if I squeeze my stuffed animals or talk to one of my dorm-mates, I’ll be alright. I wrote to my mum and dad, and I re-read their letters every time I feel sad or homesick. Life is good. 

Much love, Everly

HEADCANONS : FLORA AND FAUNA

Never let it be said that Tilden has a normal taste in plants and animals. Below the cut is a list of Tilden’s pets, and the types / names of plants that she has in her possession.

Bowtruckle : a hand-sized, insect-eating tree dweller with long sharp fingers (two on each hand), brown eyes, and a general appearance of a flat-faced stick figure made of bark and twigs.

Posy ( rescued by Tilden in Denmark )

Golden Snidget : a small golden bird with fully rotational wings, best known for early use in the game of Quidditch, eventually being replaced by the Golden Snitch.

Beedle, Bard

Owl : everyone knows what an owl is lbr

Sova ( barn owl )

Devil’s Snare : a  plant with the magical ability to constrict or strangle anything in its surrounding environment or something that happens to touch it. Struggling or resistance to Devil’s Snare will cause the plant to exert a greater force of constriction.

Freddie ( confiscated sixth year by Professor Sprout )

Honking Daffodil : flowers which resemble normal daffodils, but make a loud honking sound when stimulated.

Doorbell, Dingo, Dongo ( act as alert system for intruders )

Mimbulus Mimbletonia : a cactus-like plant capable of movement which, when aggravated, produces Stinksap. These plants also make crooning noises when touched.

Sir Wimbleton ( at her office ) Mimble, Toni

Puffapod : a magical plant which produces large pink seedpods full of shining beans, which flower when touched with any solid object.

Beanie, Tinker, Pufferton

Screaming Burgalow : plant with thin, tentacle-like vines and a center pod, which will strike at anyone in its vicinity if provoked. Vines produce toxin which burns the skin, which it uses when it strikes. Emits a high-pitched sound like a scream. Can be paralyzed by reaching within its mouth ( warning : it has teeth ) and pressing hard on its base.

Rudy, Popeye

Screechsnap : a magical plant with the ability to move and make noise. It is also described as a “semi-sentient” plant for having the ability to feel both pain and pleasure.

Jimi, Wiggles, Roger, Ramona

Singing Tulip : flowers that look like normal tulips, but are able to carry simple tunes.

Agnetha, Bjorn, Benny, Frid ( sing ABBA’s greatest hits )

Venomous Tentacula : a green, spiky, toothsome plant with mobile vines that try to grab living prey. Venomous Tentacula expel venom from their shoots, and its spikes are deadly. Its bite is highly poisonous and can prove fatal.

Queenie, Attila

Unspecified and crossbred plants : many of these plants are ones that Tilden took home after rehabilitating them, and are not typically found elsewhere ( nor are they necessarily legal ).

Aranetta, puffapod-venomous tentacula cross Cringleton, screechsnap-venomous tentacula cross Yoda, mimbulus mimbletonia-unknown cross Celestina, honking daffodil-singing tulip cross

twenty one pilots and paramore

Thank you :D

The two are actually kinda connected, so I start with Paramore.

I feel like this is a much less common way to get into Paramore now then it was a few years ago, but it was through Twilight. I still remember the date lol. Saturday, January 9th, 2010, I watched Twilight for the first time and because I always watch the credits I heard Decode and was like… this is fucking amazing. But it wasn’t until I bought the dvd myself and watched Twilight again that I was like.. I need to look this band up. So I did that (on youtube, cause I’m pretty sure Spotify wasn’t even a thing) and then like two days later I knew all the songs and a few demos. And it was so surreal, cause every song felt so familiar, like I already knew it, like this band was created just to make songs that perfectly fit my taste.

I just love paramore so much they’re my favourite band ever (I’m listening to them right now, surprise surprise) and it’s gonna be 5 years since I first discovered them in a few months and I’m still not tired of any of their songs.

Also, I forgot to mention it but Paramore was the only band I ever bothered to look up after hearing one of their songs. It was the first time I went to look for music on my own instead of just listening to songs on the radio. Paramore's the first band I ever really liked.

twenty one pilots was a little bit more difficult for me to get into.

I think I was watching old panic! videos on the FBR channel and they kept recommending me the Holding On To You video so I was like.. okay.. whatever.. fine.. I’ll listen to it. And then I recognised it? My favourite radio station played it a few times and I never bothered to look it up or anything. I didn’t listen to the lyrics though, so I was like.. okay.. white male rapper.. but it sounds kinda cool. But I pretty much moved on.

And then a while later someone on tumblr combined Paramore’s ‘Now’ video with 21p’s Car Radio video, and the audio was Car Radio. So I only saw the right part of the Car Radio clip the first time lol. But I was so intrigued by the video, and I really focused on the song and I paid attention to the lyrics and was like.. shit.. this is deep.

But even then I was like.. I don’t know if I can really get into this, I’m not that fond of electronic music, and I don’t know if it’s for me, you know? With music especially, I always have to feel like it’s somehow aimed at me. I want to relate the the lyrics, or at least really like the sound. And I really liked Car Radio but I was afraid that because of the pretty simple nature of their songs I would like it initally and then get tired of it all of a sudden, cause that’s happened before. 

But then I kept seeing posts on tumblr about how much they loved 21p and how awesome they were live and how important they were to people, and I was just like, fuck, I’m gonna listen to them and if the songs are too simple for me musically and I get tired of it, at least I liked it for a little while?

So I got into them and as it turns out I don’t get tired of their music and I love them and I’m gonna see them for the second time next month.

This totally wasn’t needlessly long or anything
