#so does Pandora Hope Lovegood

[luna---lovegood]

Pandora Rosier Headcanons

Pandora would get sick rarely, and when they did sick they would get so sick that they would hallucinate

She loved going into forests and collecting non-poisonous mushrooms

They definitely had a crush on every girl they were friends with at some point

Pansexual as hell

Xenophilius was the only person she actually dated

Evan and her became estranged after he became a Death Eater

They were NOT a Seer, but were really good at tarot card readings

They were a year older than the Marauders

Pandora was friends with Regulus before he became a Death Eater, they wouldn't even look him in the eyes after that

Sybill was the only person she stayed friends with after Hogwarts

Pandora made Sybill Luna's godmother

Pandora's boggart was losing everyone they've ever cared about

They used she/they pronouns

They really liked making tie-dye clothes

Her middle name was Hope

The Paint Won't Come Out!

“God, my head is killing me.” James groaned, standing up and stretching his aching muscles. “How long have we been here for?” 

“Like fifteen minutes.” Remus responded. “And maybe your head wouldn’t hurt if you actually went to bed at a decent time and not stay up late at night goofing off causing you to tumble down the stairs.” 

“It’s not my fault the rug was there.” James pouted, remembering the events from the night before where he had tried to escape a harmless hex Peter sent his way and tripped on the rug. 

“Well the rug has been in the corridor since we got here.” The other boy pointed out. “So really, it’s your fault that you tripped and hit your head.” 

James scoffed and rolled his eyes before his eyes widened and sent a swift kick into Remus’ leg, causing the other boy to groan. 

“What the hell is your problem James?” 

“Sirius is storming over here. You gotta do something.” 

Indeed Sirius was storming over and he was furious. McGonagall tried to stop him from walking away, but when Sirius sets his mind to something, everyone has learned that there is no stopping him. 

He didn’t even stop when he reached his friends. Just kicked a small can of paint out of his way, which got literally everywhere including his two best friends, and stormed off. 

“Aw man.” James whined. “I got paint on my trousers.” 

“That is the least of your concerns.” Remus responded, trying to mop up the paint off his jumper with a rag. 

“What does that mean?”

“You got paint in your hair.” As soon as Remus said it, he regretted it as the unholy scream that emanated from James mouth was something he hopes to never hear again. 

“Oh relax you overgrown baby. It will wash out.”

There is so much attitude and background in this chapter I just love it! I hope y'all enjoy!

Characters in this chapter: James Potter, Lily Evans, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, Pandora Lovegood, Regulus Black, Evan Rosier

Plot: You're being 'raised' by your evil stepmother and stepsisters. Upon receiving the invitation to the royal ball, you and your stepmother and stepsisters all get ready for it. You go through the clothes left by your parents, but will they actually let you go? And if they do, who will you meet?

Notes: Inspired by the fairytale ‘Cinderella’ but is a polyamorous version.

The gif does not mean the reader has a gender. It’s a point to the magic in the chapter.

The day of the ball arrived, James and Lily were helping each other get prepared, every now and again, James would kiss Lily before telling her, “you look so beautiful, my love.”

“Thank you, my Prince,” she smiled, when she finished getting ready, she turned to him. “Do you know if Padfoot and Moony will be at the ball too?”

“Of course, they will be,” he told her. “According to them, Padfoot wanted to go so they could flirt with everyone they could and make Moony jealous.” He smiled to himself. “Moony in his words, will be with us, in case the people start swarming me.” The smile fell. “I would hope they wouldn’t do that, but we’ve never had people in the castle for anything like this, so we’ll find out soon, I guess.”

“If it does, Remus, Sirius and I will be there to stop it, alright?” Lily looked at her love. “We are there to protect you if you need it. Now, take a deep breath in,” Lily guided him with this, and he followed. “Now slowly release it.” She released a breath and he did as well. She looked down at what he was wearing, “you look dashing. I’m so proud of you and will continue to be, even if you don’t find anyone else.”

He smiled at her, “you always look beautiful, my angel. Tonight, you look stunning.”

There was a knock on the door and when Lily opened it, she revealed his blood brother, Sirius and their friend Remus.

“We weren’t going to let you go down alone,” Sirius told them. “Are you ready?”

Lily said, “yes,” at the same time James said “not quite.”

Lily was confused, “what do you mean? You look perfect.”

“I wasn’t talking about me, my love. I meant you, you may look stunning, but you forgot your shoes.” He smiled before he went over to the closet, pulling out a shoe box. “Sit on the bed. I’ll put them on you.”

She did as she was told as Sirius and Remus watched James take the shoes out as he knelt in front of her. He lifted one of her legs and placed it on his knee as he put her shoe on, kissing her knee, before she placed it back on the floor and he did the same with her other leg.

Once her feet were on the ground, he knelt before her, holding out his hand, “Will you please accompany me to the ball?”

She took it as he stood up, both of them turning to Sirius and Remus, taking a deep breath, before saying to the room as a whole, “let’s go.”

——————

You were so excited the whole day, you would get to go to the ball and maybe you would find a way to change your life. When time came, your stepmother told you that her and her daughters would be getting ready for the ball and to stay in your room.

You disappeared from their sight, not realising how she’d told you to stay in your room. So when you put the finishing touches on your outfit and you finished your hair and makeup, you made your way down the stairs.

“Wow,” you heard from one of your stepsisters. “That’s it. I can’t go. He won’t choose me.”

You smiled and asked politely, “do you like it? I don’t want to go for him, but I would like to make you proud. All of you. Maybe talk one of you up if I talk to him.”

However your stepmother got angry and slapped you, making tears form in your eyes as you fell back slightly as she screamed, “NO, YOU WON’T BE GOING!” With that, she ripped your sleeves, and your step sisters joined, ripping other parts of your outfit. Your stepmother then grabbed your collar and threw you in your room, locking the door. You went over to the window after you were able to get up, watching as they went off in their carriage.

It would take too long to fix your outfit in a way that would look as good as it had. And you certainly wouldn’t get it done in time to be able to get anyone to help you get to the palace.

You tried to pick the lock, even with it being on the other side, but it was no use. However, you heard the lock unclick and the door opening. You looked up, terrified, until you saw a beautiful blonde woman standing before you and she seemed to be glowing, now you were just confused. As she moved, you saw what looked like wings.

“Hello,” you almost whispered, your voice cracking after all the crying.

“Hello,” she sounded confident. “My name is Pandora. I’m your fairy godmother, though I’ve been watching over you for a while. I’m trying to be more of a guardian angel for you. Do you know anything about fairy godmothers or guardian angels?”

“A little, not very much as I’m not allowed to read very much,” you told her. “My stepmother thinks I’ll get ideas and rebel against her.”

“You already want to though, don’t you?”

You nodded.

“How would you like to go to the ball? I know your life will change if you do go.”

“How? My outfit is ruined and I have no way of getting there,” you almost started crying again.

She was thoughtful, “but you do want to go?”

“Of course,” you were frustrated, until you looked at her, calming down almost instantly and asked, “can you help me?”

“Yes,” she held out your hand and just before you disappeared from the room, you heard the door close and lock again.

When you reappeared, you were in the front yard, which was closed off from those outside by a huge fence, so no one could see in. Pandora let go of your hand and took a few steps back.

“Sweetheart,” Pandora said and you thought that her voice was so beautiful. It sounded so melodic. You could listen to it forever. “I’m going to use magic and create you a whole new outfit, but I need you to do something for me.”

Your voice was quiet as you asked, “what is it?”

“I need you to think of the most beautiful outfit you can think of,” she paused, letting you come up with it. “Have you got it?”

You nodded, hoping what you had would look as wonderful as you thought. You watched as she waved her hand and a gust of wind came up and wound around you. When it fell, you were wearing exactly what you wanted. The fabric was beautiful and soft to the touch. You had tears in your eyes, as you felt the material.

Pandora asked you, “would you like to see yourself?”

“Yes, please,” you whispered.

With that, she waved her hand again and a full length mirror turned up, you looked at yourself. You looked incredible. You felt incredible, but there was something missing. Shoes, you weren’t wearing any.

You looked up at Pandora who smiled, waved her hand and you didn’t feel the ground under your feet anymore. When you looked down, you saw really beautiful shoes that matched your outfit.

She waved her hand and a few matching pieces of jewellery appeared. One that you loved was a ring that appeared on your right hand. It was stunning. You hoped you could keep it when the night was over.

“You have until the strike of midnight,” Pandora told you. “When the clock strikes twelve, the magic will wear off. Right now, no one except the royals and people of nobility will recognise you. To everyone else, you will look like a noble person yourself.”

You smiled as she picked an apple off a tree nearby. She placed it on the ground before she took a step back. Again, she waved her hand and before you was a beautiful carriage. With another wave of her hand, two men appeared.

“These are two of my friends,” she said as she smiled. She introduced them to you, motioning to the dark haired one, “this is Regulus. He will be your footman.” He bowed to you, before Pandora motioned to the blond man. “This is Evan. He will be your driver.” He bowed to you and you smiled and waved at both of them, before turning back to Pandora. “Remember, the magic wears off at midnight. Now, go and have fun. Keep your mind open to all possibilities.”

marauder parents hcs:

mostly for my own continuity fanfic writing reasons

remus- hope and lyall; very in love, they're an adventuring turned sitting on the sofa with a cuppa couple. they both sell things at the village market, and help out neighbouring farms. hope died in early 80s and lyall spends the rest of his life mourning her and his son

james- euphemia and fleamont; literally besotted with each other, best friends turned lovers but it was fleamont crushing heavy on euphemia whilst euphemia was in a highschool romance with minerva. died in each other's arms <3

sirius & regulus- orion and walburga; arranged marriage, knew each other since they were babies (being cousins and all). didn't particularly get on, they just tolerated each other and both had numerous affairs

peter- lydia and cora (mum and dad divorced and his dad legally isn't allowed to see him); lydia was a teen mum to peter and later realised she was a lesbian, got with cora whilst peter was a teenager and cora became his unofficial mum-in-law.

dorcas- bob (mum isn't around/left when she was very young); he's bob the builder /real. is very gay. never came out to dorcas (she knew). sirius was the one who told him dorcas was dead, weeks after it happened. and after it came out in the muggle world of sirius being a huge criminal, bob blamed him for dorcas' death.

lily- jean and lee; both huge workaholics (boring office jobs) and put a lot of academic pressure on petunia and lily. *cough* lee is in love with bob *cough*. lily gets the ginger-ness from lee. they both don't know a lot about their kids life, which they regretted after lily's death.

marlene- catherine and ian; catherine is a huge bitch, we hate her. ian is just there. he's a classic sitcom dad- goes to work, reads the paper, watches tv, occasionally fixes stuff in the house and plays football with his sons. he's much closer to marlene's brothers, since catherine doesn't like marlene doing 'masculine' things. they're both middle class, wannabe perfect and traditional family people.

mary- aymee and ronnie; quite chill. ronnie works at the post office, and aymee sells homemade jewellery. they both get on more with mary than her older goth lesbian sister, sy. aymee went to hogwarts, was in hufflepuff, so is the parent to help mary out with magic related things.

emmeline- mi-sook and yeong-su; yeong-su went to hogwarts so got emmeline to live with her grandparents (in scotland) so she could go there too. as such, she's not that close to her parents. she does gets on with her mum, sending letters to each other every week and spending time together when emmeline visits. but doesn't get on with her dad, him being distant and comparing her to her younger siblings

pandora- tilly and cian; they both worked as apprentices to nicholas flamel after finishing school and met each other there. they're the lovegoods (i'm a 'xenophilius took pandora's last name' truther.) regulus' parents let him be friends with pandora in hopes her parents would get regulus a connection to the flamel's. they both dissaproved of xenophilius but agreed it was better than pandora's previous sapphic poly relationship

[allthemarrowoflife]

listen listen listen i know that most people who are not endgame jily are endgame jegulus because my boy james potter became obsessed with the same two people at 12 years old and never changed his mind

but what if he. didn't. like sure, if lily or reg told him to bark he'd go "woof" cause he's gone for people who are mean to him.

but he's james fucking potter. i refuse to believe he never dated anyone else.

SO HERE'S MY PROPOSITION

lily starts hanging out with this slytherin girl, pandora lovegood, they're girlfriends, and along comes pandora's queerplatonic partner, xeno, a ravenclaw.

and james looks at this person, all long white blond hair and big blue eyes who's always saying some weird shit about creatures no one's ever heard about before, who wears flowy skirts even when people make fun of them and too many necklaces and big earrings and whose patronus is apparently a fucking moth and goes "i've only had xeno for a day but if anything happened to them i would kill everyone in this room and then myself"

no one even knows their surname, only pandora, because mcgonnagal never calls them anything other than "xenophilius" just like she only ever calls sirius "sirius", so james figures there must be something going on there and that only makes him more invested cause my man never met a fucked up person he didn't want to fix.

he starts hanging out with xeno even when pandora is not around and waves at them across the halls and listens dutifully while they rent about nargles or something, mind wandering about how the sunlight hits their hair just right and makes it shine in gold or how the blue of their eyes matches the early spring skies (he's sappy like that, leave him alone)

the other marauders are slowly freaking out about this cause james is bringing this person over to the common room and helping then look for their shoes and SINCE WHEN IS JAMES POTTER EVER INTERESTED IN ANYONE OUTSIDE OF THEIR INNER CIRCLE.

meanwhile, james is freaking out himself. he really likes xeno and would like to ask them out but he's in a queerplatonic relationship with pandora? so maybe that means he's not interest in romantic relationships? and does james even care if it's romantic or not at this point if that means xeno will hold his hand and blush when he smiles at them from the qudditch pitch?

but because he is james fucking potter, he does what he always does. jumps in with no plan whatsoever and hopes for the best.

"hey, xeno, listen. i would really like to take you to hogsmead this weekend. it doesn't have to be a date, i don't even know if you're comfortable with doing The Dating so i won't imply this is us doing The Dating, but maybe we could just talk and maybe..."

and then xeno asks to kiss him (jamespotter.exe has stopped working) and promptly says that just because they don't do The Dating with pandora, it doesn't mean they can't do The Dating with someone else.

lily and pandora are watching from behind a pillar and giggling triumphantly. this was their plan all along.

[daenystheedreamer]

Sorry to ask but wtf is the marauders? I only hp films and I'm confused

HARRY POTTER TW BELOW

i was a harry potter nerd ages 8-14 and dipped during the 2018-19 early jkr transphobe era when she was liking tweets about magdalen berns and maya forstater and then going naurrrr it was a mistake i misclicked!! i distinctly remember explaining to a teacher about it and the teacher going "oh idk im sure it was a mistake shes very feminist and charitable" well whos vindicated now. anyway unfortunately i have a lot of lore stuck in my head from when i wrote wattpad fanfiction at 13.

so canonically the marauders are like a nickname that james potter (harry's dad), sirius black (the dog guy), remus lupin (the werewolf guy), and peter pettigrew (the rat one) called themselves when they were at school. they're the ones who made the marauder's map, that magic map that fred n george give harry.

in fandom, the marauders era refers to basically the entire cast of characters who were around during the marauders school years during the 60s and 70s and 80s. eg snape, lily evans (harry's mum), pandora lovegood (luna's mum), regulus black (sirius' brother), and like all the other random ass order of the phoenix and death eaters who happen to be around at that point (marlene mckinnon, mary macdonald, barty crouch jr, evan rosier, etc etc etc)

its all made up and entirely fanon built on top of fanon. its been around for ages, i remember seeing tumblr incorrect quotes reposted on instagram in 2015 like its been FOREVER but it blew up in 2020 during the dark academia tiktok explosion and now its forever ingrained in shitty internet culture.

you would think in a world where half the characters are nazis and the other half are anti nazis that these characters might like hate each other but that's canon and the fandom has about as good a grasp on optics and narrative as the author does. often its just an AU where voldemort doesnt exist and pure-blood supremacy is just window dressing and treated the same as the way sexism/feminism is treated in fandom

i will say a lot of the current hp fandom do disagree with jkr's views and dont engage with anything she's published recently (like the video games n shit) but like a vast majority still do. and sorry making all the characters pansexual and trans to spite jkr does not actually make a meaningful difference in the world but whatever

anyway hope that explains it. and i didnht even get into jegulus...

Major Character Death: Tag on AO3

WLW Library: Tumblr | Tag | AO3

[vinatintasupernovita]

Tell me your hp hot takes I desperately need to know (and i am not a marauders stan so I won't care if you're negative)

i have a lot of takes so i’ll keep it to my top 10!

1) I cannot STAND regulus black. he’s barely an idea of a guy, his fanbase is a timothee chalamet circle jerk coated w the same milquetoast white sad boy w a heart of gold character they give to every run of the mill YA-male protagonist. y’all just want a pretty boy and i would respect it if y’all didn’t act like he was the messiah of the era, he fucked up his ONE moment of redemption and didn’t even do it right infact it just made Harry’s time trying to save the world harder than it had to be

2) majority of fans of the marauders just like them bc they’re aesthetics of vaguely gay best friends in a partially idealized 80s where they do not do anything but chain smoke, have relationship problems, and die. they are frat boys, they’re doing a lot of dumb shit constantly and very minor are their problems dating related

3) i don’t like the idea Sirius and Regulus were physically abused by their parents. i actually think until Sirius was placed in gryffindor he was the family golden child and relentlessly spoiled, in the same way dudley was but with his bitchy mom who was not loving but more.. like instigatey and let him get away w stuff? i do think Walburga was emotionally abusive and clearly unstable, but i cannot see her laying a hand on her precious heir to the family name, esp since we Know the black family held that in Very high regard. Sirius was different fundamentally from his family but not to the point Walburga was Beating it out of him, he was given just enough room to push until he actively chose to run away at 16

4) Pandora Lovegood Was A Ravenclaw. Only Ravenclaw Parents like That have a kid like Luna. Xenophilius also was a Malfoy, he was like Sirius and fundamentally different but only Kicked Out when he Chose to marry into the Lovegood family, taking her name. he and lucius LOOK like brothers like cmon

5) Moody is a hufflepuff that is just important to me, also i don’t think he’s that old tbh war just does that to you, but again that’s more for personal reasons

6) Peter loved his friends more than anything and never once WANTED to hurt them. him ratting out the potters was more him ratting out Harry and hoping that Voldemort would Only kill Harry, leaving Lily and James bc he couldn’t imagine a life without them, but they could Have another child (bit fucked up but he was also looking for the easy way out)

7) I think Narcissa and Sirius were the closest cousins besides Sirius and Andromeda. Narcissa was the clear favorite of her family branch and so was Sirius, they’re also the closest two in age, i think they’d get along well at least before hogwarts

8) The Black Family are BROKE as fuck! I’ve told you abt this but for the sake of the post: Grimmauld Place is Ratty and Dirty and Ugly in the middle of muggle row houses! Why would the MAIN family branch of the black family live there if they had a choice? they have no money (at least substantially) and they’re just kinda lying about it and hoping for the best, slowly becoming like the Gaunts

9) I don’t ship wolfstar bc i think Sirius is noncommittal and Remus is too depressed to do this shit rn but during hogwarts all the marauders did kiss a lil bit but in a bro way (also most marauders fans think sirius is bi and remus is gay, i see it the other way around, that’s just me tho. i feel like a lot of wolfstar fans shoehorn them into outdated mildly homophobic character types (the slutty bi, the inexperienced gay, etc)

10) James Potter is Indian and this isn’t so much a hot take as it is a fact bc Harry is brown in most fanon bc he kinda accidentally was written as brown-coded but not a lot of marauders fans seem to equate that with James. However i do think Harry is mixed in the way that he’s half indian, quarter east-asian, quarter white. (Lily is wasian and she and petunia are half sisters. you can guess what ethnicity Petunia is)

bonus: i cannot see Andrew Garfield as Remus in any context i think y’all are insane for that cus it looks nothing like him, just use his actual actor’s younger photos/movie clips??

[fruitcoops]

hii would you write a coops fic that takes place before they’re out when they’re still sneaking around but have like a sweet date night at remus’s apartment

Of course! This is a continuation of Newcomers and Nargles, where Remus babysits Luna Lovegood. Hope you enjoy! SW credit goes to @lumosinlove <3

“Thank you for having me over,” Sirius said quietly as he pressed a kiss to the corner of Remus’ mouth. The only light came from his kitchen, which was far enough away that they were left in soft shadows on his couch. “Really, Re, this is wonderful.”

“There’s no need to be so formal,” he laughed, though Sirius could see the pink flush spreading to his ears. “It’s just pasta and my apartment.”

“I love your apartment.”

The flush deepened. “Moody calls it my hamster cage. You had to duck to get in the door.”

“Details.” Sirius leaned forward for a proper kiss to his lips; they had set a timer for the pasta and had a while yet, if his memory was correct. Plenty of time to settle himself more comfortably in Remus’ lap and kiss him until he got the glazed look in his eyes that Sirius adored.

He wanted this all the time. To come home with Remus every night, without fear of the wrong person (or anyone, really) seeing them. He wanted to kiss him in public and keep his hand in Remus’ back pocket like a cliché movie couple and watch Remus light up when he held his hand. He wanted.

Remus made a soft noise and slid his arms around his waist, holding him light and cozy while he traced small swirls on the small of Sirius’ back. It sent goosebumps racing along his spine—Sirius cupped Remus’ jaw in his hands and hummed his approval. The room was so wonderfully warm, filled with the smell of cooking pasta and sauce on the stove. They had made it together; shoulder-to-shoulder, hip-to-hip, trading kisses in the steam.

God, he wanted it so much it ached.

Remus trailed light kisses along his neck, taking pauses to nuzzle Sirius’ skin and nibble his collarbones. Sirius buried his face in honey curls and let himself believe this was his everyday life. Their everyday life.

A quick knock at the door shattered the illusion. Sirius felt the blood flee his face as they both froze. “Who is that?” he managed.

“I don’t know,” Remus whispered. His pupils were dilated with fear and, with a pained look, he guided Sirius off his lap so he could stand and turn the rest of the lights on. His slender hands smoothed his sweater and jeans in methodical movements, but Sirius saw their tremors.

He distracted himself from panic by looking around the apartment and all its knickknacks; the feeling of being surrounded by Remus in his most distilled form was unparalleled. A little granite wolf figurine sat with its wooden counterpart on the table by the door; dozens of pictures of family and friends scattered the walls with no rhyme or reason to their placement. It was cluttered in the best possible way, and Sirius wanted his whole life to look like it.

The door clicked open. “Hello?”

“Remus!” a woman’s voice exclaimed. “I’m so glad you answered.”

Sirius glanced over and saw Remus’ whole body relax as he opened the door further with a smile. “Hey, Pandora, how are you?”

“Doing fine, doing fine. It’s Phil and I’s anniversary and we’ve got dinner at 7:18, but Luna’s babysitter came down with a cold and can’t make it. We just got the text an hour ago and we were hoping you could watch her while we’re out.”

“Oh.” Remus’ eyebrows shot up. “I—well, I have a friend over for dinner, but we made plenty of pasta for one more, I s’pose. Sirius, is that okay with you?”

It took him a moment longer than was prudent to get over the fact that Remus—kind-hearted, friendly, beautiful, so beautiful—was asking his opinion on letting a kid join their date. Their top-secret, possibly-life-ruining-if-discovered date. “Yeah, that’s fine.”

“Oh, I’m so rude!” the woman gasped. She poked her head around the doorway and waved to Sirius—her long blonde hair cascaded over her shoulder in a messy plait, and her dress seemed to be made of a variety of beads. She was pretty, with a combination of angular features and a heart-shaped face that nudged a memory in the very back of his mind. “I’m Pandora Lovegood, from 7A. It’s so lovely to meet you.”

“Nice to meet you as well.” He padded over and held a hand out to shake, but to his surprise she took it turned it over, furrowing her brow at his palm.

“Well, that’s quite the love line!” She smiled and patted his cheek. Her eyes were glacial blue, but somehow still as warm as a crackling hearth. “Good for you. Your life line isn’t bad, either. I’ll be back with Luna in a moment!”

“Have a good night, Pandora!” Remus called as she fluttered away. “Say hi to Phil for me!”

Sirius was still standing in mild shock when the door closed. “Pandora, Luna, and…Phil?”

“Xenophilius,” Remus said. The corners of his mouth twitched. “Her husband, and Luna’s dad.”

“Hell of a name.”

“We can’t really judge, can we?” Some of his amusement dimmed and he ran a hand through his hair. “I’m sorry for ruining our date. I shouldn’t have done that.”

“No, it’s alright,” Sirius said quickly, kissing his cheek until he smiled. “You didn’t ruin anything.”

Remus looked a bit sad as he looked up despite his smile. “Yeah, but this is our only time together.”

“It’s not the last time I can ever come over to your apartment,” Sirius reminded him as he ran his hands up Remus’ arms. “I think it’s great that you’re doing this for your neighbors. It shows how caring, and sweet, and wonderful—”

“Alright, alright, I get it,” he laughed, cutting Sirius off with a vivid blush.

“Besides, I agreed to this.” He nudged their noses together. “I’m pretty sure my impressive love line can handle another date sometime soon.”

Remus grinned as he leaned in. “Don’t get ahead of yourself, Black.”

“Are you going to stop me?”

A tumbling sound came from outside, followed by a peal of giggling and a sharp pattern of knocking. “I did a cartwheel!” a tiny ball of blonde curls announced as it launched itself at Remus’ legs the second the door opened. “Hi, Remus!”

He caught her with a slight wince as Sirius tried to calm his pounding heart. “Hey, sunshine, are you ready for some dinner?”

“Oh, yes, please.” She wriggled down from his arms and gave her mother a bear hug, beaming when her face was covered in kisses.

“Be good,” Pandora said as she set Luna down and brushed her hair out of her face. “Listen to Remus and his friend. We’ll be back by ten at the latest. Thank you both again for doing this. I’ll bring over some cookies tomorrow, Remus.”

“That’s very sweet, Pandora.” Remus’ eyes tensed at the edges, as if he was in pain at the very thought. Pandora whisked herself toward the stairs again and Sirius shut the door behind her. “Luna, do you—”

“I remember you!” Sirius turned and found himself staring into the biggest pair of blue eyes he had ever seen. The memory came rushing back in a flood—Remus, frazzled and fluffed at the edges, with a little girl balanced on his hip. Luna stood on her tippy-toes and he leaned down so she could take his face in her hands. After a moment, she nodded. “You’ve done an excellent job of keeping the nargles away, Mr. Sirius.”

“Thank you.”

“Mama said you and Remus were making pasta. May I have some, please?”

“Of course you can,” Remus assured her, ushering her into the kitchen with a sweep of his arm. “After you, my lady.”

Sirius waited until Luna had safely skipped out of earshot before bending toward Remus’ ear. “Why does she…?”

“Talk like a normal kid and then a Victorian orphan?”

“Yeah.”

“Dunno. I guess that’s what happens when your mom’s a chemist and part-time psychic and your dad owns The Quibbler.” There wasn’t a trace of judgement on Remus’ face as he raised his voice by a few degrees. “Be careful by the stove, honeybun.”

“I will!” Luna chirped back. Sirius couldn’t place why, but he held undeniable affection for the little girl, even after only two meetings. She was unapologetically odd; he was sure he could never get bored of talking with her.

Luna sat on the countertop while they served up dinner, happy as a clam as she recounted her and her father’s hunt for Fizzing Whizbees at the candy store. They were her mother’s favorite, apparently, but Luna had yet to see one in real life. Her conversational skills came to a sharp halt during dinner; it was so startling that Sirius grew concerned after two minutes without her high-pitched contributions.

“Luna? Are you alright?”

“Hmm?” She looked up from her plate with a curious glance between them and gave Sirius a bright smile. “I’m making an octocapus.”

“An octopus?” Remus leaned over to look. “Wow, you got all the legs with your noodles! Way to go!”

“You’re a great artist,” Sirius agreed as Luna continued working on her masterpiece.

“Yeah, I know.”

He bit his lip to keep in his laughter and met Remus’ eyes; at first, he had been a bit worried about babysitting during a date, but he couldn’t imagine a better way to spend the night. When their plates were clean and Sirius was warm and drowsy from carbohydrates, Remus collected the dishes and headed back into the kitchen despite Sirius’ offers for help.

Luna gave a wide yawn with her head propped on one hand and turned to Sirius the moment Remus turned the sink on. “Do you give Remus kisses?”

It took all of Sirius’ self-control not to accidentally spew water all over the literal child sitting across from him. Instead, he coughed and spluttered into his napkin while the alarms in his brain began to blare. Remus showed no sign of hearing their conversation while he rinsed out the large pasta pot. “What?”

“I’d like it if you did,” Luna continued with nothing but her usual dreamy expression. “Remus needs friends, and mama says he could use some kisses.”

“I think everyone could use some kisses,” Sirius said evasively. His heart galloped in his chest.

“Hmm. Yeah. How long have you been friends?”

“We’ve known each other a little longer than you’ve been alive, but we’ve only been friends for about two years.”

“That’s a good amount of time.”

“Oh?”

She put her chin in both palms, suddenly looking much older than she was. “I’ve been alive for four whole years. That’s a long time. If you’ve known someone for four whole years, you should give them kisses.”

Sirius stared at her. “That’s quite the philosophy.”

“What’s that?”

“An idea.”

“Why didn’t you just say ‘idea’?”

“I…don’t know.”

She hummed a little under her breath. “Will you color with me?”

“Yes,” he answered as relief coursed through him. He had no clue how she had gone from blunt questions that could turn his whole world upside down to coloring, but he didn’t care. “Yes, I would love to.”

Luna slid off her seat and hopped over to Remus’ desk, then dug around in the drawers and emerged with a few sheets of blank paper and some pens. “I’m bad at outlines. Will you draw them for me?”

“Absolutely.”

------------------------

Luna fell asleep halfway through coloring a Kneazle with Remus, which as far as Sirius could understand was just a cat that had its face squished. But it made her happy, and he would draw a million squishy cats to keep her questions about Remus to a minimum.

As soon as Remus finished tucking her in beneath a heavy blanket on the couch, he turned and crushed his lips against Sirius’ like a man dying for air. The kiss lasted long enough that Sirius was staring to get lightheaded before finding himself the (quite enthusiastic) recipient of a rib-crushing hug. They held each other for a few minutes, silent and swaying, before Remus let him go with a final kiss and they began to clean up the mess.

True to her word, Pandora returned just before ten pm with a blond man at her side and a big hug for her daughter. “Goodnight, Luna,” Remus whispered. They received a sleepy wave in response and then, finally, they were alone. “You are the best person ever.”

Sirius wound his arms around Remus’ waist and melted a little when strong hands combed through his hair. “Funny, I could say the same thing about you.”

“I didn’t know you could draw.”

He shrugged one shoulder. “I can doodle. It’s nothing fancy.”

“You drew imaginary monsters based on descriptions from a four-year-old.” Remus cupped his cheek and rested their foreheads together. “You’re amazing.”

“This was a pretty awesome date,” he mumbled, closing his eyes to bask in their little bubble.

“We should do it again sometime. Preferably without the child, though.”

Sirius’ smile came all the way from his heart as he buried his face in the slope of Remus’ neck. “As long as I get to be with you, I’m happy.”

It was the closest thing to ‘I love you’ he could bring himself to admit, but for now, it would have to do.

[misty-groves]

Ophelia knows many things, all good purebloods do. She knows French, she knows all the worst curses and Insults, she even knows who she will marry when she is if age. What Ophelia has never known- never understood- is her twin's resistance of the inevitable.

She has never understood why Sirius revolts against their life every day. Screams back at their mother as she curees him.

She is the model daughter for her parents, born with the signature family hair and nose. Her manners are immaculate, a slytherin at first sorting. She is the one who cares for her brothers, a perfect daughter.

Ophelia is the one to teach her youngest brother how to play the game. She raises him as best she can around their parents' intermitten attempts at parenting.

When Sirius makes Gryffindor- she cries in her dorm that night. She already worked so hard to shield him and he just had to end up- well there woukd he hell to pay she can't protect her twin from.

So instead she focuses on school, dragging him into tutoring sessions, and being subjected to his friends in addition. But it's the price of keeping his grades in a place their mother will accept.

Reggulus becomes slytherin, and Ophelia can only thank the stars. She can't imagine what woukd jappen if both brothers were not Slytherin. He even keeps good company, though Dorcas is around Sirius' friends occasionally, it can't be helped.

Ophelia takes the dark mark when she turns seventeen, over Christmas break her seventh year. She hates the burn it gives her. But she has to do it.

She's a Black.

What she dosen’t tell anyone, is that she runs into Sirius and the redhead Snape fancied- Evans?- and she just shakes her head when he raises his wand. She says softly, "I'm not going to hurt you. Hurry and go before Crouch shows up though."

So her brother does, dragging Evans with him.

And then a few weeks after Reggulus dies. And Ophelia- she's so proud that the pain is twice as much at her loss. She sits at his grave well into the night. Long enough for Pandora to come, a traitor to her blood-

"Lovegood." Ophelia manages, "He would have loved to be her godfather..."

"I know."

"He's a letter he wrote... I'll mail it tomorrow. "

"I see... Why do you stay?"

"I've been here too long to change. Who woukd believe I was not cruel?"

"I do. Your brother. Alithea Fisher."

"Maybe..."

"Ophelia. Reggulus always spoke about how you two would plan your escape."

"Well... It's too late. Isn't it?"

"Maybe."

"He was a kid, Pandora. We all are!"

"I know."

And neither speaks again that night, sitting together as they mourn.

Ophelia leaves her family that day, and she goes to her brother. To her twin. There's a lot about herself she doubts will ever be okay, but- but she dosen’t want to be a death eater. She just wants her brother's back.

And it's too late for Reggie, but she still has Sirius. And she's hoping he'll listen.

The door she knocks on reveals Remus of all people, who glares at her.

"I'm looking for Sirius... A lot's changed since we spoke."

"I doubt it."

Then Sirius is pushing past Renus, the Familial magic tugging him forwards. "Ophelia? What the bloody hell do you want?"

"Can I come in?" She asks, and she's tearing up again.

"Why?"

"I just want to talk... Please. I told you before, I'm not going to hurt you. I just-"

"Come on. Hand your wand over."

So she does, passing it without hesitation to Sirius as she's pulled in.

"Sirius. " She says, "Reggie died."

"Oh."

"I- really need someone to tell me that it's not too late for me... Sirius- I hate deatheaters. It's one thing to choose to keep your own bloodline pure- but what they're doing..."

"What you did." Remus reminds.

"It's disgusting. Children are fighting a war! I- they let Reggie die. No one cared. The only other person who stayed with him after the funeral was- Pandora..."

"So?"

"Look I know you don't want me around. But- Can you help me? I just want to be better. And since there's no one left to protect I can leave."

"To protect?!"

"Please. I'll even stay away. I just need a little help."

Sirius pulls a face, and Remus stares holes through her.

"You really want to change?"

"I do. I hate who I've become."

"That makes three of us." Remus says.

"Fine. I'll help you. But you owe me." Sorous concedes, and he dosen’t actually need her to give anything but herself. He missed his sister.

"I know." She manages, "Thank you."

"We'll start by getting you somewhere to stay."

@pulchrxclade ​

“Are you attempting to prove Xenny right by looking like a skittle-fisk? Or is this a new way of training?”

Pandora stared at them rather oddly, her head offering a gentle tilt as she kept her arms crossed in front of her. “I don’t know what skittle-fisks look like, but I suppose Xenny doesn’t know either given he hasn’t mentioned their description in the Quibbler yet.” In a way, this was her way of teasing, though, her ability not to break character often made people wonder if she was serious.

“Professor Dumbledore would probably prefer we do things indoors as to not be so obvious. At least, that’s what I was told after I blew up that tree last week.”

—

Frank hadn’t done anything wrong—or so he thought, at least until he was greeted by Pandora on his way through. He literally just got there, but clearly he had either looked very conspicuous or very suspicious or both. There were a couple of things he wanted to do to try and help out, especially with the Order members who are worried about being next. Although—Frank had thought worrying about it was silly. It was easier to just assume you were next, and it was a time like this that sharpened one’s survival skills. Frank didn’t want anymore of his friends to be statistics in this war, not if he could help it. He was going around making his off-duty visits, just to make sure that everyone was up to speed regarding their protective charms.

If anything, Frank would rather have everyone in a classroom and teach them how to properly duel, but only Marlene had really wanted to work on duelling. Maybe this moment was Frank would do more for the Order, reach out more and see if anyone else wanted to do something more.

It took a moment to parse the gibberish that Pandora had spattered at him, but she hadn’t exactly been shy either. She definitely knew what she was talking about, even if he didn’t understand was a skittle-something was. Or at least it sounded like it, that she had an absolute confidence in her knowledge of what it was.

But before Frank could understand what a skittle-something was, she started talking about how she didn’t know what it looked like—and that maybe Xenophiliius didn’t know either. He couldn’t hide his bewildered expression, unsure of what she was trying to get at and forgetting how chatty she had been. Or maybe she just wanted to catch him by surprise.

“If we don’t know what it looks like, what exactly does it do?” Frank asked. He wasn’t a magizoologist, but he imagined that maybe he could come up with what it could maybe look like if there was a purpose to it. He considered himself one of the few to really take the Lovegoods seriously—or at least enough that the Quibbler wasn’t something that immediately went into the trash when the owl delivered it.

His playful tone broke the tension a bit, or enough that he felt a little less… stressed, even after the McKinnons had been murdered. There were a few sparks of hope that Frank hoped to protect, and he wondered how the Lovegoods would fare during the war. “And that poor tree—I’m sure Dumbledore’s so concerned about the shrubbery. What did it do to you that it deserved being set on fire?”

The Perks of being Ron Weasley

So this might be a series of headcannons about my favorite readhead and his muggle life! Hope you guys find these funny

Ron woke up, as every single morning with his sister looking at him and moving his leg, he was late to school.

He went to brush his teeth and got dressed , he didn’t need to take a shower since his brothers were already waiting for him. He went downstairs and found the place empty, not that common in his home

-Where is everyone Ginny?- Ron asked sad because there was no food on the table

-They went without us, Could you believe it?!

He saw his little sister and shook her hair, then he took her hand and went outside- Let’s go on bike shall we?

His little sister smiled and sat on the back of Ron’s bike, then, Ron started driving really fast.

-RON! KEEP IT EASY YOU ARE GOING TO KILL ME!!- screamed the unfortunate sister- I WISHED I DIDNT WAIT FOR YOU

Ron laughed really hard and went faster, since school was really far away they didn’t have the privilege to go slowly and calm.

In front of them was a white car, a cabriolet, which had some flowers and lots of drawings painted really careful; It was lovegood’s car.

-Mister Lovegood!!- Ron screamed and went next to the car- Morning Mr. Lovegood, Me and Ginny have to go to school, and I really enjoy my bike but is really far away and having a little girl screaming on your back isn’t a nice help- Ginny hit Ron- Would you drive us please?

-Absolutely! Luna my dear, give them sit please- Mr Lovegood opened the car and Luna smiled- You shall pass kids.

Ron saw Ginny and took her off his back, then both of them sit on the car.

The trip had laughs and candies, Ron loved going to school with the Lovegoods

-So Ron, this is the first time you wake up early, how does it feels like?- Asked Mr Lovegood- I’m sure Pandora will be surprised because of that

Ron was confused- Wait, I woke up late didn’t I?- He saw Ginny, who had her cheeks red

-No you didn’t, it’s 7 am- Said Luna, smiling at them

Ron saw again Ginny- but you told me everyone left Gin

-Well umm... I wanted to go just with you Ron. You are waking up really late and I can’t go with you to school... so I moved the car in the back just to make sure you thought we were late...

Ron saw his sis shocked, he didn’t know that going to school together was that important to her ‘‘I’ll wake up earlier for Ginny’’ Ron told Himself. Then he kissed her forehead and smiled- Its okay Gin, just tell me the truth next time, okay?

-Okay- Ginny hugged him.

You looked as your stepmother's house came into view. “They aren’t here yet?”

“No,” Regulus said as he opened the doors to your carriage. “They’ve only just left. I’ve been keeping an eye on them using my magic.”

“Thank you, Regulus.” You hugged him, he was smiling when you pulled back. And you saw Evan standing next to him, so you hugged him. “Thank you, Evan.”

They both bowed to you as they said in unison, “it has been our pleasure, your highness.”

When you went to tell them that you weren’t and probably would never be royalty in any way, you had been magically transported to your room. You looked outside and both the men and the carriage had disappeared.

By the time you got changed, your stepmother and stepsisters had arrived home. You quickly hid your outfit, shoes and jewellery, before silently going to bed. Of course, your stepmother came up, but she only found you lying in your bed, asleep. Though you weren’t actually asleep, you were acting like you were, knowing you could fool her.

———

James and Lily waited in the family room just talking to each other about the sweet person they’d met and knowing they were the thing that had been missing.

It wasn’t long before the King and Queen entered with someone following behind them. A beautiful blonde woman who looked like an angel.

Both James and Lily stood up, upon seeing them, hoping they had information regarding the owner of the ring.

“James, Lily,” Euphemia said before gesturing to the woman who walked in with them. “This is Pandora. She’s a fairy godmother. She was mine before I met your father, James.” She paused and leaned against Fleamont who wrapped his arm around her, kissing the top of her head.

“Hello Prince James, Princess Lily,” she said in a melodic voice.

“It’s a pleasure to meet you, Pandora,” James said as he held out his hand, which Pandora shook. She turned to Lily and shook her hand too, before bowing slightly.

Pandora said in a voice that sounded dreamy as she held out the hand holding the ring, “You’re looking for my latest charge, the one who was wearing this ring?”

“Yes,” Lily said as she cuddled into James’ arms. “They were wearing that ring, but it fell off. We want to use it to find them. Is that possible?”

“Yes, I can help with that. I can’t take you to them, but,” Pandora said as she waved her hand over the ring, making the ring glow, “the magic on it, as well as the magic I’ve put on it just now will help you find them. The only person who it will fit on is your love.”

She handed it to James who was closest to her and he took it, holding it tightly. With tears in his eyes and in Lily’s, they both whispered, “thank you.”

“You’re welcome,” Pandora said as she bowed to them. “Have a wonderful life, Lily, James.” She turned to Fleamont and Euphemia. “I am so happy to see the beautiful family you created.” She bowed to them. “It was lovely to see you again, Euphemia. Take care of her, Fleamont.” With that, she turned and walked out, disappearing before their eyes.

James was amazed and stunned at seeing fairy magic before him. Once he stopped looking at the door, he turned to Lily. “Tomorrow, we’ll start looking.”

Lily smiled. “I agree. We should get some rest first.”

A scene you found creepy (even when you knew it was coming): Nagini uses a corpse as a mask.

For any Potter heads. Some things that bothered you about the Harry Potter films:

- Where is Charlie Weasley?

- Where is Peeves?

- Where are Neville’s parents?

- The green/blue/brown eye thing. (This is not against Radcliffe. Some special effects could have fixed this easily)

- HarrY DiD YOu PuT YoUR NaMe IN tHe GoBlET of FIRE?! 🔥

- In Sorcerers Stone, Why did you change the snake at the zoos breed??

- “Voldemort” versus “Voldemor”. The silent t.

- Hermione’s. Yule. Ball. Dress. Color. Blue. Not pink. She specifically changed the color.

- Fluffy. Hagrid’s adorable Cerberus was originally bought from a Greek man. Why change it to Irish? I like Ireland but it was a Greek man due to where Cerberus’s initially came from right???

- Harry’s first Weasley sweater color

- Why does Harry only see his parents in the Mirror of Eirsed? Where’s the rest of the family?

- The Underage magic rules aren’t well explained in the movies making the 3rd year summons even more bonkers sounding

- The Patil Twins Yule Ball Outfits. They could have been soooo beautiful. Like this is the Yule Ball! The Twins would have (in my opinion) much more elaborate traditional Indian styled dress robes?? Idk.

- Love Movie Hermione! But some moments take away from Ron. Like when Ron defended her in the Chamber of Secrets. Hermione didn’t know what the slur “Mudblood” meant in the books. Ron had to explain it.

- Dobby needed more screen time. Some stuff Dobby did went to Neville because so many Neville scenes were cut.

- Where’s all the secrecy from the books when communicating with Sirius- “Snuffles”? Something Harry’s godfather insisted on to keep him safe.

- Snape’s title of “The half-blood Prince” is not explained. Neither is it made clear that Severus was also abused horribly at home throughout his childhood. Also that like Harry Dumbledore did nothing to help Severus when he was a student. (Or maybe Tom Riddle when he grew up in an orphanage. I’m sensing a pattern)

- Dumbledore should have still spelled Harry during Dumbledore death scene. No way would Harry just stand there if given the choice.

- Ron was not quite as ‘dumb’ in the books and a lot of his funny moments were cut from the movie. Which makes his jealousy moments all the more unbecoming. He also comes off a bit more arrogant in the movies. (This is not against R Grint. Who is awesome) The movies gave Ron the short end of the stick.

- Weasley/Malfoy Fued. Who else wanted to see Arthur and Lucius have a fist fight in a bookstore? Exactly.

- Albus Dumbledore isn’t all Sunshine and Daisys. He does some really messed up stuff yet no one ever seems to question this.

- Remus was the last Marauder. Yet his and his wife, Tonk’s, deaths are barley acknowledged.

- Also Teddy. Harry’s Godson.

- Harry’s and Ginnys relationship is not built on. It’s just there. Ugh. Heck Movie Ginny isn’t that great. You don’t know much about her except: She’s the only girl in Ron’s family. She’s the youngest Weasley. She’s obsessed with Harry. She’s a good Quidditch player. She has a temper. She was possessed by Riddle’s Dairy when she was eleven. She’s obsessed with Harry.

- Draco is essentially Harry’s antithesis. Where is he in some critical scenes in the movies?

- Where’s the Luna love???? Harry’s pretty rude to her in some scenes.

- There is no S.P.E.W. And Hermione’s more ruthless side is gone.

- The guys hair in The Goblet of Fire. Get a hair cut. Please.

- Some of Molly’s less than Stellar Moments. (Ex. When she believed rumors about Hermione and so treated he coldly. How horrible she was to Fleur. Ect)

- Fleur. Fleur and Bill still get married but the objections to the wedding aren’t as presented in the movies. Not is Molly’s and Ginny’s extreme dislike of Fleur. Or when Arthur apologizes to Fleur. Or really any of Fleurs best moments. The whole courting process is skipped.

- House Elves. The House Elves of Hogwarts.

- Percy Weasley. The ‘betrayal’. The returned Weasley sweater. Him turning to protect his family and fight for Hogwarts at the last minute. All gone. Which involves being forgiven by the Weasley Twins not an hour before Fred dies.

- The connection of the Black sisters. Specifically Adromeda - mother of Tonks. Who is Sirius cousin. Who married Remus Lupin. Tonks and Remus the parents of Teddy.

- Dean Thomas is pretty much gone.

- Rita Skeeter. Illegal Animagus. Hermione kept her in a jar.

- The movies didn’t allow Radcliffe to be sassy and sarcastic enough. Harry Potter is one of the sassiest boys to ever walk through the halls of Hogwarts!

- Harry didn’t fix his wand in the last movie.

- The history of the Marauders.

- The history explaining why Snape could never be comfortable around and trust Remus Lupin.

So...I was minding my own business, and all of a sudden out of nowhere this bumble bee buzzed in through my window, and he threatened to sting me if I didn’t write this fic....so...to save us both...I wrote some Xenophilius and Kingsley fluff. 

NOW...before you even THINK about saying anything...I love a rare pair okay. I can’t help myself. 

Okay so maybe I didn’t save the life of a bee...I’m just weird....anyway...

Enjoy. Or don’t. That’s fine too.

When Pandora died, Xenophilius didn’t react in the way that people thought he would. When describing him, it was impossible to leave out how eccentric he was, and it bled through to his emotions. By no means was he overly emotional, but he certainly didn’t subscribe to the idea that men needed to be made of stone. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t help but doing th epolar opposite at the funeral. In all honesty, he wasn’t entirely sure what to feel. He’d loved this woman with all of his heart. She didn’t care that he sang to his plants or if he danced barefoot in the garden on the weekends, and she never batted an eyelid when he kept troll spit in the fridge beside the milk. She was his and he was absolutely hers, and then one day, she was gone. That was the only day he’d ever worn all black. He’d tried to smile for Luna’s sake, but he couldn’t keep it up. He didn’t quite remember when he took himself away from everyone celebrating Pandora’s life in the living room, but before he knew it, the sun was coming up and he’d been sat in the garden, crosslegged behind a rosebush the entire time. Kingsley’s sudden presence almost made him flinch in surprise. He’d have loved to return the soft smile, but he just couldn’t bring himself to do it. Instead he found himself just staring up at the man, stoic as he had been the entire day. The last thing Kingsley wanted was to give him ‘that look’. It wasn’t fair. Most people hated sympathy and the puppy dog eyes wouldn’t help anyone, so instead he took a seat beside the other man and pulled in a deep breath. Xeno made a mental note to remember the usual scene. The stunning shades of deep blue that seemed to swirl over the fabric of Kingsley’s waistcoat didn’t seem right being so close to the ground, and yet…

“That was a beautiful service, Xen.”

“Thank you, Kingsley.”

A moment of silence passed and then he spoke again.

“It’s peaceful out here.”

“I come here when the Wrackspurt’s start buzzing around.”

“Am I interrupting?”

“Hm? Oh, no. I think you might have frightened it away.”

It’d be a lie if Kingsley were to say that he understood absolutely everything Xenophilius ever said, but understand them or not, he certainly enjoyed them. The corners of his mouth turned up in a way that he hoped wasn’t too patronising, and with a soft grunt he pressed the palm of one hand into the grass to push himself back up to his feet. 

“Come on. You should get some rest.”

“But Luna -“

“Is asleep. Tucked in safe and sound.”

“Oh…well the house is -“

“Clean and tidy. Kettle charmed to stay hot.”

“Kingsley…”

There it was. Those fabled emotions that Xenophilius was known for. Over the years, the two hadn’t exactly been the best of friends, but things change. When The Order was formed, it seemed as though the children that’d all gone to school together had stopped existing and had been replaced with adults. If adulthood was having to bury the people you loved, Xeno wanted absolutely nothing to do with it. Begrudgingly, he gracefully eased himself up to his feet. Soles pressing into the soft grass as he guided himself up without the use of his hands. 

“Since the kettle is already ready, would you like some tea?”

Kingsley had learnt from experience to never agree to a cup of tea offered to him by Xenophilius Lovegood, but in this case, he’d politely nod and follow the man inside. It was Luna who first realised that the two had been spending more and more time together. She’d bought her dinner plate over to the kitchen, pausing to look over at Kingsley who was in the midst of preparing desert.

“I think it’s nice that you make daddy happy.”

For a moment, the man hadn’t been entirely sure what to say and when he’d lifted his eyes to find Xenophilius for some sort of help, the man was nowhere to be seen. He was good at that. Just slipping away without anyone noticing. It really was a talent. An infuriating talent. 

“You don’t have to be embarrassed.”

“No, I’m not I just…did he…say something?”

“He didn’t have to. Everything smells yellow when you’re around. That’s his favourite colour. He’s happy. With you.”

Almost as if he were summoned, the sound of Xeno’s bare feet sounded in the room. Half of the long wavy blonde locks pulled up into a bun at the top of his head, held in place by his wand. In one swift motion, he’d pulled the length of wood out of his hair, letting his hair fall about his shoulders, and charmed the record player to fill the space with an upbeat vinyl. Before Kingsley had a moment to gauge what was happening, Luna had skipped across the room and the two were dancing around each other. It really was a sight to see. Luna would bow, Xeno would curtsey and crouch low enough for her to be able to twirl him. It was hardly graceful, but Kingsley couldn’t tear his eyes away. 

“Come and dance with us!”

“Kingsley does not dance, sweetheart.”

“Now, hold on. I can dance.”

“You absolutely can not.”

“I can, thank you very much.”

That was an absolute lie, and the second the words came out of his mouth, he knew it’d been a mistake. That being said, if there was anything that Kingsley was not, it was a man who went back on his word. So he forced aside the sensation of his stomach falling into his polished boots and stepped forward to try and mimic what he thought seemed like an appropriate way to dance. Needless to say, it was hardly his best work. Luna was giggling into her hands, and Xeno swayed his hips watching in the hopes that Kingsley might eventually find the rhythm. No such luck.

“You look like you have had a run-in with a Heliopath.”

“Well I thought I was doing quite well. Luna?”

In turn Luna snorted out another laugh, head dipping forward and sending a few strands of her pale blonde hair into her eyes. Xeno set the wand down, stepping in closely and bringing his hands up to rest on Kingsley’s waist. When the next song started, he felt tender hands guide his hips to the beat of the music. His eyes instinctively lowered to the grip, but when he lifted them again, he was caught by the bright eyes lingering on his own.

“Like this?”

“Much better. Is it not, Luna?”

When the question was greeted by silence, neither man had to turn and look to know that she’d inherited her father’s ability to slip out of any room with barely a sound. Without a thought, Kingsley’s eyes momentarily snapped down to Xeno’s mouth, where his teeth caught caught his bottom lip. That simple glance was all the encouragement Xeno needed to tip forward and connect their lips in a tender kiss. While the kiss didn’t come as a surprise, how easily Kingsley felt himself melt into it certainly was. One hand came up to push through the blonde locks and settle at the nape of Xeno’s neck, and in turn, the other pulled them closer together. Without realising it at that point, Xenophilius had found another person who would cradle him when one of his plants died and wordlessly move the toad bile when it was in the way of the milk.

02, 06, 14, 18 !

02.  the high priestess  :  how does your muse make decisions ? do they trust their instinct or would they rather trust their heart / their logic ?

this has always been something luna has struggled with her entire life. her heart and her head are constantly at war with each other. most of time, ever since the battle, she usually goes with her instincts. when you’ve lived through as much heartache as her and many others,  you can never be too careful. every so often though, luna will listen to her heart and tell her head to be damned. 

06.  the lovers  : how important are relationships to your muse ? do they value having a significant other ?

luna pandora lovegood would d i e for her friends. they’ve all been through so much together, that they truly are a family bonded by heartache but also love. she has never minded being single. if she ever found someone who she wanted to share her life with? she would love that. but she’s not one of those people who always need to be in a relationship to be happy. she has herself and her friends. that’s all she needs as far as she’s concerned. 

14.  temperance  :  does your muse make plans ? how impulsive are they ? has this gotten them into good / bad situations and how have they dealt with them?

if anyone truly knows luna, they’d know how much she loves making plans. she’s got a pretty planner and everything. she just loves meeting up with her people and spending all the time she can with. if luna was as impulsive as she’d like to be, she out travelling the world. yet, with her ailing father she’s hesitant to leave for long periods of time. he’s the only parent she has left, after all and she wants to spend as much time as she can with him because she doesn’t know what’ll end up happening to him. 

18.  the moon  : what does your muse long for ? is it a realistic desire ?

peace. not waking in cold sweats because her dreams  nightmares of getting kidnapped and the battle all seem too vivid to be just in her mind. at certain points, it does seem realistic. luna’s healing and she feels hopeful.  she feels hopeful that one day she won’t hurt so bad. although, in light of recent events, with the dark mark appearing in the sky, all hope went down the drain. of course it’s not realistic because there will never be peace if  the death eaters and voldemort can help it.
