Microfic: Bones

100 words written for the @drarrymicrofic prompt 'Bones' by Imagine Dragons.

The piece of Voldemort’s soul had been a dampener. 

No one had realized the sheer amount of power that resided in Harry’s body, ‘I can feel it in my bones,’ he'd confessed to Draco when he was wrapped around him in bed one night. 

And power like that was meant to burn iniquity from the world.

Draco stood in awe, watching raw magic crackling around Harry as he gave an impassioned speech on the Ministry’s front steps. Watching as the aurors who’d come to kill him were disarmed with a flick of the wrist. 

Harry was saving the world. Again.

why does every article reporting on idf war crimes go "hamas, who started the war on october 7th with their brutal terrorist attack slaughtering innocent israeli civilians, has condemned the idf's use of-"? like, nearly verbatim every single time. we know about october 7th. we know by now. half the time, hamas isnt even relevant but they gotta find some way to sow doubt and numb any potential compassion responses. will you get fired if you show sympathy for murdered palestinian civilians without first adding a disclaimer saying its all their fault for being born in gaza? if you call "palestinians under 18" children? if you use the words "murdered" or "brutal" or "massacre" for acts that didnt occur on october 7th? if you call a spade a spade? why are israeli reports front page news without proper fact-checking but palestinian reporting is always "allegedly" even when theres video evidence? why does the idf not get the hamas treatment of reminding everyone that theyre biased before treating their words as law, like they havent been caught bold-faced lying again and again?

Victory Over the Power of Evil (Luke 4:31-37)

Even though our thinking is important and critical, there is more to it than that: Orthodoxy (right belief) requires orthopraxy (right actions).

He went down to Capernaum, a village in Galilee. He was teaching the people on the Sabbath. They were surprised and impressed—his teaching was so forthright, so confident, so authoritative, not the quibbling and quoting they were used to. In the meeting place that day there was a man demonically disturbed. He screamed, “Stop! What business do you have here with us, Jesus? Nazarene! I know what…

What about au where smiler was partially marmalised and works for the ministry and is trying to manipulate Victor and Alice into getting marmalised and becoming advocates

*waggles hand* So, not opposed to such an AU, but it would have to end with Alice and Victor getting Smiler out of the Ministry instead of Smiler successfully getting them to become Advocates. Reason being is, well, a Smiler working for the Ministry and trying to manipulate Victor and Alice is an unethical mind controller! And we know what Alice does to unethical mind controllers:

[ID: Animated gif by thedestinysunknown of the moment in A:MR when Alice, in her Wonderland form, shoves Bumby off the platform of the Underground station and into the path of an oncoming train]

Yeaaah, if you've ever thought my Smiler seems a little nice when compared to the coaster's actual theme, that's the reason. I had to give them ethics, otherwise they were going to get stabbed. So yeah, an AU like that would have to be along the lines of Smiler trying to get Victor and Alice to join up, only for Victor and Alice to instead show THEM how the Ministry is actually not really interested in happiness and is pretty evil honestly and get them out of there. (Which is actually not dissimilar to what happens in my Londerland Bloodlines AU (after the events of the game), where Smiler THINKS they've joined a group interested in making people happy and helping them through rough patches in their lives, but in fact the Ministry they've fallen in with is Ministry as in "Formerly The Followers of Set," and THEY'RE more interested in corrupting people with false joy...awful shame that they end up targeting Victor...)

@perditos || from [x]

He can both see and feel when she relaxes. No, relaxes is the wrong word. She’s not relaxed. (Neither is he.) She’s just not as ready to fight. He understands. He’s still wary, too. Still ready, but testing out the tentative peace-time between them. 

He still didn’t know what to think. Who was she? What was she? Did that matter? … Well, yes, it mattered. She could be a monster. (He already was one.) She could be dangerous. (He knows he is.) He might have to deal with her if he is not cautious. … But she is a child. (And if she isn’t, it’s a convincing illusion.) And she is alone. And she seems afraid. And how can he turn her away? (Easily. She is a liability. She is vermin. And you? You are so much more–) 

It’s these thoughts that plague him as he walks. They circle his mind like vultures, incessantly screeching until he gives them attention. He neglects them regardless. He can hear the grass crunching as her footfalls trail after his own. They’re lighter, smaller, a bit quicker even with the drag of exhaustion. That’s a good sign; they sound like they actually belong to her. (So she is small. She is vulnerable. She is a trespasser-) 

“Xion, huh.” He says. His tone is neutral. He doesn’t recognize that name. Of course, that doesn’t mean much. It could come from anywhere, from anything. (Could be a lie. A trick. Names have power. Do not make her mistake.) His brow furrowed against the incessant buzzing in his head. Shut up. He doesn’t even have a name, anyway. So it doesn’t matter. 

“Undertaker.” He says simply. It’s all she needs. It’s all he uses. He pauses a moment, then opens the locks, iron, silver, gold, opens the gate, waits for her to pass through, and closes them in reverse order. A part of him, an old part, a stubborn part, tells him his mother might call him reckless for not asking her to touch the locks first. Another part of him, a newer part, twisted and jagged, wondered why it mattered what she would think. She wasn’t here. (Because of you. You did this. Didn’t it make you feel better? Didn’t the sight of her charred corpse make you feel powerful?) As he turned to the stream, he caught another glimpse of her. This close, she looked even smaller, more ragged. There was still baby-fat in her cheeks, but the line of her jaw was sharp, indicating a lack of food. The bags under her eyes were either from dehydration, lack of sleep, or both. The dried-out nature of her hair, likely a glossy black if she were healthy, wasn’t a clear indicator as to which. But her brown eyes were sharp, chased every movement of his hands. 

She was running from something, or had been running - likely for a very long time. She was probably gonna keep running after she left. Callouses on her knuckles meant she was used to fighting. The air crackling around her belied a deep magic lurking beneath the surface. 

…

It’s interesting. He files it away to keep an eye on. The boards are nudged into place and he crosses, once again waiting for her to make it past the threshold before he moved them back. A good sign. The running water hadn’t slowed her down. (Might mean something. Might mean nothing.) (You’re getting soft.) (Kill her.) Up the steps, one, two, three. (A longer process than snapping her neck.) He kicks the mud off his boots and heads to the kitchen. 

“Take a seat.”

I found someone else's echo on what is believed to be referencing Marx's work.

I dont personally think it confirms death, but it does confirm censorship at the minimum

Did we forget that the Clergy's whole goal is world domination?They've been pretty up front about that since the beginning.

Actually, fuck it, I'm in the mood for late night talks and rambles. I wanna talk about how Hufflepuff doesn't actually work at all in the Harry Potter universe. Let me explain:

"Those patient Hufflepuffs are true and unafraid of toil".

Hufflepuffs are known for being kind, loyal and patient. They're loving and unafraid to stand up for what's right. Which means they would actually be considered the most evil witches and wizards because they'd defy the most rules and help those who are the most hated. They would harbour those who are rejected, they would push back against the status quo, they would help Slytherins and protest against Azkaban. They would detest how the Wizarding world is run, I fact, I could even see them hating the phrase "The Wizarding World" and seeing it as sexist.

Hufflepuffs would be the biggest rule breakers out of all the houses; they would be seen as villains because they'd be full of people who would not tolerate how the Ministry of Magic is run and rebel against it. All the anarchists would be Hufflepuffs, all the anti establishment punks would be Hufflepuffs. If you wanted sweet, honey, cosy people as your image, you'd have to switch around the moto and make pride and liars the motto.

Because those who are genuinely unafraid of toil do not come in shining armour, but worn and used rags. They are the "Good Samaritans", not the rich pleasent people who smell of sweets and cleanliness. They're the underdog to be certain, and wouldn't appear sweet and appealing, because they're those who are out fighting for what's right and that's not where the rich and pleasent folk are, that's where those who are downtrodden are.

The Hufflepuff Common Room would be a place to help Slytherins who are scared to return home or who are scared of being picked on for being Slytherins. It would be a place where House Elves would go if they wanted to be freed, there's be a whole ass boot and clothes at the ready and a person about to help make it happen one way or another. Hell, they wouldn't have even existed at this point in the narrative if we've actually made a huge collection of "fuck the cruelties of the establishment" people.

Of course, JKR is a bigot of every type compiled into one person, so of course slavery , police brutality and the gap between the rich and poor in the system of the wizarding world would still be seen as okay to "those who love justice" in her mind and even mock those who try make things right or even a bit more bearable (like Hermione, because of course everything the only girl in the main trio does is seen as a giant book-series-long joke of how "a silly girl can't ever be right because girls being smarter than the boys isn't allowed, so she needs to be mocked and showed she's too arrogant for that! Since a girl that knows too much is just too arrogant for knowing anything" because JKR is sexist as fuck in those books).

But being a bit more hopeful here for five seconds and forgetting the writer, if possible, let us just appreciate the fact that Hufflepuff is the biggest plot hole for simply existing. Either the Sorting Hat was lying or the motto isn't true because half the universe wouldn't exist how it is if it were. Could you imagine if you made an automatic assortment of every person who stood up for the downtrodden? Protests would be so much easier if we had one of those. Could you imagine the protests possible if one didn't even have to look for people to organise and find solidarity with? If you didn't even have to find everyone who would support it, but all grew up in the same school house group?? The wizarding and witching world would be full of unions, slavery and police brutality would be a past matter and capitalism would be dead. Also there would be far more push for using magic to help muggles. Like, there's no way they wouldn't have a "let's open the wizarding world" protest every year from Hufflepuffs. They would and you know it. They would literally be the ones sent to prison for refusing to be shitty and since keeping the status quo has been the main method of the shitty keeping said cruelty alive and well.
