she’s really the guy ever

[rainintheevening]

Hey all, would really appreciate prayers for my mom. Her back is in rough shape right now, she's in a lot of pain, and can't walk very well. They got a short extension on the insurance pay-out, so she can get back to seeing the osteopath she's been seeing, but probably not for long. God only knows where this is going.

Please pray for her, and me as I wrestle with trying not to shift into my old friend survival mode. I don't want to shut down, I want to stay open, I want to live cruciform. But it's hard.

⊱✿⊰ summary: rumors spread fast at Hogwarts, Harry should know this by now.

. ⊱✿⊰ warnings: very suggestive, you sit on Harry's lap and he gets a boner, kissing, uhh everybody thinks you guys had aex but you didn't, typical teenage hormones, you guys are friends who have crushes on each other, post-confessions??, mcgonny might be ooc sryyy bad jokes

⊱✿⊰ notes: this is way more suggestive than i usually write but yeah. don't ask why i came up with this..i just did and i am kinda embarrassed but im already here

harry was sure he was going to explode. he had you, his very best friend, sitting on his lap and kissing his neck. he had not been prepared to know what to do when the prettiest girl he had ever seen was also into him.

he didn't know how to respond or how to reciprocate that he really, really, wanted what was happening. the best he could do was hold your hips, squeezing them as you sucked on a particularly senstive spot. he couldn't help the way heat started to pool in his stomach, blood rushing down to his-

"harry," you giggled, snapping him out of his embarrassing train of thoughts, "didn't know you were that excited."

"shut up, [name]," he grumbled, feeling his face warm exponentially. he pulled your closer, pressing his lips to yours, smirking into the kiss when the sweet little gasp you made reached his ears. harry was sure he would never get enough of the taste of your lips, sweet and soft like the chapstick you always loved to wear.

if he was anywhere near his right mind he might consider the fact, you and him were making out in the middle of the common room. but it was late at night, everybody was surely snoozing and harry couldn't control himself. he wanted-no he needed to feel more of you.

a groan got strangled in his throat as you wiggled your body, rubbing your body against his and sending electronic volts all throughout him. he should really tell you to stop...but fuck if it didn't feel good. (hey, the chosen one needs some fun in his life too!)

he leaned in to kiss you again, only to be met by your loud screech and you flinging yourself off of his lap like he had suddenly caught a highly contagious disease. a quick look at his pants would expose his highly embarrassing situation so he quickly grabbed a throw pillow and shoved it on his lap.

"professor!" you said, and he quickly snapped his head towards where professor mcgonagall was staring horrifed at you both.

"both of you! bed! now! acting so indecently in such a public place? i expected better than you, potter." she chided, pointing a finger towards the stairs. obediently you and harry hurried up there, harry being quick to hopefully hide his.. condition.

"practically have sexual intercourse!" she muttered, shaking her head. you and harry practically ran up the suddenly very long staira, hurrying to your respective dorms in hopes you could hide from the embarrassment. turning you gave harry a quick wave before shutting the girls dorm door. at the very least everybody should be asleep so nobody would be aware of this incident.

❀ ❀ ❀

the whispers started almost immediately after you stepped into the great hall. young and old students bored their eyes into you as you marched to your usual seat with harry, hermione, ron and the rest of your makeshift friend group.

ron immediately snickers, and hermione swats him with an eyeroll. your face was already warm with embarrassment, even more so now that your friends were aware of the whole...thing.

"i cannot believe you had sex with harry and didn't tell me!" hermione hissed, looking at you with a slightly betrayed look. she was your best friend, well beside harry (and harry was...more now.) but she was your girl best friend. which made it easier to talk to her about certain things.

"we didn't?" you said, clearly confused...you thought the rumors would at least be accurate if they were to be spread. but that was too much to ask for a bunch of teenagers hungry for drama. you turned to harry and added, "why do they think we had sex?"

harry blushed, probably remembering what happened the night before. then he said, "i'm pretty sure someone was awake last night and heard professor mention that we were 'practically having sex'"

he mumbled the last bit and you giggled, amused at his shyness about this whole topic. although you weren't faring much better, the thought of doing that with harry was enough to make your body implode.

"but are you guys like dating now..?" ron asked, paying half attention to you guys and half to the food in front of him. it was delicious so you couldn't really blame him.

you glanced at harry and he glanced at you, a small smile peeking out as you nodded slightly. his goregous green eyes lit up with excitement, the silent confirmation all he needed to know the truth. harry fucking potter was your boyfriend now.

"yeah, she's my girlfriend now." he said, before he turned around. you followed his gaze and saw draco malfoy staring daggers at him, his pale face red with utter fury. he looked like a swollen tomato.

you smirked, gaining some confidence and leaning towards harry. you pressed your lips to his, hands pressed into his chest. you only felt egged on by the hoots and hollers of the other students.

"well that certainly didn't help the rumors." harry said, fixing his glasses with a flustered look on his face. you giggled and hugged him.

"we'll let them believe what they want to believe. who knows, maybe they'll learn about the other times i've seen you naked." you giggled, laughing even more at harry's horrifed gasp.

"hey! you said you wouldn't bring that up!" harry whined, blushing even more as ron and hermione laughed along with you.

rumors were bad, but with your family and your friends..and your new boyfriend. it wasn't so bad.

Goin' Ghost

by @staira

There is a reason Danny has been so afraid of his parents finding out his secret identity. He knows they will accept him no matter what from his few past mind altering experiences. The truth is Danny is afraid of what comes after they accept him. All of his plans come undone when he saves Valerie Gray and she finds out his secret.

I CANT GWT UP THE STAIRA IT HURTS

[raaorqtpbpdy]

The Vital Component

For the Phic Phight prompt: The real reason Danny and Vlad became halfas is discovered. Why did it only happen with the proto-portal and portal? Why two people with knowledge of ghosts? (from @staira)

AO3 Link

[Warnings for death and implied murder, I guess? Vlad's a bit of a creep at the end Idk]

Vlad was doing a little light reading before bed. An unknowably ancient tome stolen from the Ghost Zone's Infinite Archives made for excellent bedside literature. He turned the page with a yawn, resolving to go to sleep when he was done with the current chapter. Then he saw the title of the next chapter and all thoughts of sleep were banished from his mind.

Hybrida: The Still-Living Ghost. 

Immediately Vlad became engrossed in the ghostly characters before his eyes, soaking up all the information he could. This book was from millennia ago, at least, and yet there was a chapter on a half-ghost, like him. Was there another one out there, still in the Ghost Zone? What had happened to them?

Hypomone of Thebes was a medium, a seer who communed with the dead. The histories say that from childhood, she was haunted by the spirits of those who would not pass on. Plagued by the ghosts that surrounded her, Hypomone enacted a solution that only she could. She created a spell.

The spell she created would open a door to Hades so that the restless spirits that followed her would be able to pass into the fields of Asphodel. Opening a door to the afterlife could only be done if two very specific requirements were met with a single, vital component.

First, the spell required a sacrifice to lay down their life to open the portal, but not just any sacrifice. The sacrifice had to be a human who had a close, lasting relationship with the dead. Hypomone, who had been surrounded by ghosts her whole life, fit the role perfectly.

Second, the portal required a host who was halfway between the worlds of the living and the dead, to carry it, and would make a suitable host out of it's sacrifice. Hypomone was prepared to become the host.

Hypomone prepared the spell under the light of the full moon. She drew a doorway in the earth. She stood in the center, and activated the spell, and when the doorway opened, it tore her apart. In the same moment she died, and yet survived, and became a halved, broken soul. Two bodies sharing the same place. At once, she was Hypomone of Thebes, and at once she was Hybrida of Hades. Half a woman, half a spirit, a still-living ghost.

She held the door open for the spirits who had surrounded her since she was young; those who could not afford to pay Charon, ferryman of the dead; or who had not been prepared to leave their living loved ones, and missed their opportunity to pass on. Though the pain of a halved life was excruciating, she held the door open, always, for any spirit that needed it.

If she has not yet passed into Elsewhereness or been destroyed, she holds the door open still. 

Vlad's heart pounded in his chest. His mouth felt bone dry. His fingers trembled.

A sacrifice to lay down their life to open the portal. Vlad had died, passed slowly on from the lethal ecto-acne that had infected him.

A human who had a close, lasting relationship with the dead. Vlad had studied ectology for years before the proto-portal incident. Not his whole life as Hypomone had, but perhaps that was why he'd gotten infected first, and not been torn apart instantly like her.And perhaps it was because he hadn't died right away that the proto-portal had ultimately failed.

A host who was halfway between the worlds of the living and the dead.

Vlad swallowed. A half-ghost had to act as the portal's host. Was that why, when he'd first opened the portal in his own lab, it had transformed him unexpectedly?

And Daniel? Daniel was the same way, wasn't he? Vlad thought. The boy had been exposed to ectoplasm his whole life, perhaps even when he was still in the womb. He had been involved in an accident with his parents' new Fenton Portal, and... it hadn't worked before that accident. It couldn't function without a sacrifice... without a host.

This was all such enlightening information.

Hypomone, or Hybrida, whichever she was, could still be in the Ghost Zone to this day. There was a chance he could even find her, slim though that chance may be. The Infinite Realms was, after all, infinite.

Most interestingly, however, Vlad knew the recipe now. Knew how to create another half-ghost. All he had to do was find the right sacrifice, and build a portal. Then he could finally have a child who was just like him. A family who understood him. The pieces were beginning to fall into place at last.
