Soul Stealer | AO3

one shot. 12k words. soulmates & war.

Trapped together in the Malfoy Manor greenhouse, Hermione is dying and Draco will do anything to rescue her.

There’s a small pond a kilometre from Headquarters and they meet there whenever Draco makes a stop to speak to Moody or another member of The Order. They’re sprawled on the grass on top of his cloak, hands tangled together, kissing for what feels like hours. Draco rains kisses along her jaw, slowly descending her neck. Lingering at the hollow of her throat.  “Do you let Weasley do this?” he asks abruptly, looking up at her with smouldering eyes. His jaw pulses when she doesn’t immediately reply. “No,” she says, hearing the uncertainty in her voice. His fingers clench around her knuckles. “But I know he likes me.”

I prefer you release the souls first!

I was told to bless a river bank where wailing voices and whispers are heard. Oddly enough it persists despite my efforts. I heard horrific tales of monsters that trap and hoard the souls of drowned victims. One day, I stumbled upon a little stranger with the same objective as mine.

Trick or treat~?

Candies went AWOL. What will you get?

Runs over to Slendy. "The kids found all the easter eggs! It was so cute!" Of course they did. Their kids were very intelligent.

He's gonna pat her down because she really shouldn't be running in her condition, but once he's certain that she's okay he's going to sweep her off her feet and deposit her in a chair with his tendrils.

"...Fun?" He asks, patting her face as well.

Many-eyed nocturnal beasts. They appear to be primarily benevolent, despite the occasional description of soul-thievery.

honestly all things considered, the scoundrel has very mixed feelings on the empire of hands. not because of the soul stealing thing. because of the aspiring to become human thing

I saw you reblogging an ask and I am curious about it for your ocs 👀

what's a theme song you would have for each of your ocs?

oooo excellent question….

thankfully my lovely friend @krisalyce made me some oc playlists which are excellent and wonderful so i’ve got several songs in mind!!

for kei:

this one’s vibes are closest to him his healing era—like, once him and ian figure it out a little. HOWEVER the best all encompassing theme for him is

it is so silly and him core and i did make an entire…animatic focused on him to it…uh….

for ryu:

ahhh it’s so hard to choose bc so many of the guys have different songs that work well for their different “eras” iykwim?

this is a good one for his Lonely/Permanently Bored Kid era (and also i jsut like how it sounds.)

however he DOES have friends. so.

is like his definitive “escaping isolation” theme. also it’s a bop. i love nico collins. (this is why people ship ryu and ian, isn’t it. they share custody of this song)

for ian:

ahhhhh this one is harddddd ian is hard to assign songs to. bc there’s the songs that match his vibe and then the songs that match his story…

though i’d have to say

works for him i think. ian has the “young gay teenager” music vibes i fear (i like the songs too, can’t judge). he’s also pretty codependent and weather-reliant (being a plant) so the lyrics fit lollll. on the same note,

works too. he is the type to fall in love with his friends in a way that is [redacted]

for alyce:

has ALWAYS ALWAYS been her theme song in my mind and heart. however she’d probably listen to like, classical lmao…

super secret special surprise under the cut

BONUS ROUND because i have

MORE OCS:

for ajax:

bro would listen to video game music. also he has phoenixs theme. get it bc he’s dead and then he undied. haha do you g

for esteri:

sweet sounding, nice. also supernatural. that is her. also space girl but if i add that ill hit the audio limit before i reach cy.

because i said so

for cy:

this one also applies to ian for obvious reasons. they’re chill the song is chill the end.

P. Craig Russell “Elric A Slough of Despond” (2016) “Stormbringer Stealer of Souls” Michael Moorcock

“This highly finished Elric illustration, the title of which makes reference to a dreadful allegorical bog from John Bunyan's The Pilgrim's Progress, captures the introspection and malaise that set Elric apart from his ‘Sword and Sorcery’ brethren.”

To pad more space on my Christmas list, let me ask something. Which of the Rick Riordan Presents books do you most recommend? Because I already own a bunch of them, but I haven't gotten around to reading them. And discounting the fact that COVID stopped my reading and that it means I already have like 10 books I've never read before cluttering up space, I still want to pad out my Christmas List. So, please tell me which of the books you most recommend, especially for someone like me (who likes comedy, mythology, middle grade fiction, and hates scary stuff). This might help me begin finally wrapping up the books portion of my Christmas list.

last one: bireena

my feelings on bireena arent as strong as some of my other ships but i still really like these two

there’s intros suggesting bi-han could be redeemed + isn’t As Bad as some of the other villains. so i don’t think it’s out of the question that him and sareena (who has always been a good-aligned character) could end up with something going on if they met

i also find it funny? that in the older games, it was always bi-han showing empathy to sareena, which helped her turn to the side of good—and now with sareena fighting w/ ashrah for good, but bi-han going down this darker path, it’s like their roles have been reversed

this thread basically echoes the thoughts + theory i have about their relationship. i just pray that nrs actually does something with them this time around instead of having any of their development happen off screen

Fun fact! If you do not let him in your house he will steal your livers.
