love the whole "Remus is gryffindor's casanova" most of you have going on but that is not me AT ALL.

He's a weird, lanky, scar covered book nerd loser who seemingly gets sick at least once a month and is the dude who's weirdly close with the nurse of all faculty. he is absolutely NOT getting bitches. he is getting ZERO play. his game is NON EXISTENT.

PoA Remus always having a vase of stargazer lilies on his desk that seem to be magically preserved

Him also carrying around a fountain pen he'd carved a hoof print, rat print, and dog print into back at school but the dog paw has been scratched off for a long time now

[ecstarry]

now imagine regulus going to a summer program at like 15 certain that he will hate every second of it but then its the first day and he gets paired with james and so from that moment on he spends his days thinking of ways to talk to this cute boy, absolutely unaware that james spends just as much time thinking about how to make reg laugh because he thinks reg has the prettiest smile he’s ever seen like james has a notebook where he writes down jokes he thinks reg would like and reg every night writes on his journal about all the funny things that james said that day and giggles about it all over again

I'm pretty much the worst person to even weigh in on this topic because I've been partial to Suvi since day one, but in my opinion there wasn't ever a need to explain or justify Suvi's choices/reactions.

Not because she's perfect, never wrong (though in my heart I know...) but because I'm very certain that the people that keep on hammering on her mistakes/shortcomings/tendencies are people that already dislike Suvi (or don't like Aabria very much, I wish this wasn't a topic of consideration but even 30+ eps in there's still people like that around) for whatever reason and gather excuses to justify their bias against her and no amount of explanation will turn their hearts in her favour.

It really feels like a parallel to the way Suvi herself tries to be understood by her friends and yet she fails time and time again.

And people insist on forgetting that Suvi is not the Citadel, she's just one young wizard of the Citadel.

And it's gut-wrenching how much I relate to that feeling of alienation before every corner she tries to fit in: amongst her citadel peers she's othered by her position and privilege, and now by her friendship to a witch and a spirit; between her friends she's the odd-one-out because of her Citadel connections and the nature of her power; and now amongst the witches she stands out by being the face of the "enemy".

I don't blame her for clinging to the little corner of the world that has not made her feel foreign despite the very nature of her presence: in Steel's family whom she's not related to by blood, yet completely by heart.

And it'll never be a fair game. The girls especially are very young and with new-found independence, they're given colossal decisions to make, and that before beings older than three generations of them combined and incomprehensively more powerful and less empathic.

As much as Mirara wants there to be a good witch and bad witch, there's no such thing as black and white, there are decisions and consequences, what one does with the power they're given. There is no right or wrong in a fight filled with so much heart, there was never a world where a fight between Ame and Suvi would be clean.

It was a normal friday night. They had a marauders' gathering, but Prongs and Wormy left quite early, like they tended to do these days. So it was just him and Moony. Sirius couldn't be bothered. They were smoking weed on the windowsill. Sirius always loved Remus' apartment because it was close to the train station, and you could hear and see the trains. Sirius found it soothing.

"Do you ever just watch a train about to leave and think 'what if I get into it' ?" he asked randomly.

They were always having weirdly deep conversations when they smoked together. Sirius loved it.

"Err- not really ?" Remus answered, but it was more a question than anything.

"I used to think that all the time when I was still living with my parents. Anywhere better than there, y'know ?"

Remus nodded and gave him a comforting smile. Just enough to make him know he was listening, not enough to make him feel pressured to say more, or weird for oversharing. Just perfect, like it always was with Remus.

"Well, I mean, it was either that or the urge to jump under the train." he joked.

"Oh my god, Sirius !" Remus said with a startled kind of laugh and wide eyes like he didn't know if he was supposed to laugh or not.

But Sirius chuckled so Remus visibly relaxed and huffed, before turning his gaze out the window. Sirius kept looking at him. The night breeze was softly messing up his curls, and the moonlight made his features look softer than usual. He was even more soothing to look at than the trains.

"Where would you even go?"

"Mh ?" Sirius didn't listen, too enraptured by his observation.

Remus looked at him once again and suddendly, Sirius realized how close they were. Their legs were touching because the windowsill wasn't designed for two grown men to sit on it.

"If you took a train. Where would you go ?"

"Anywhere. That's the good thing. The adventure." he spoke the last part with a wild kind of grin which made Remus smile back. So he felt positively adventurous and didn't stop there.

"You know what ? We should do it. Take a train."

"What ?" Remus asked in disbelief.

But Sirius was on a ride that couldn't be stopped. "Yes ! Just, any train, as soon as there is one."

Remus just laughed. "You're mad. You're actually mad. I don't even know if there's any train leaving London we could take. It's literally two o'clock."

"So ? I don't see what the issue is." And then, making sure to look Remus in the eyes and to pout just a little. "Come on, Moony. Don't you want to go on an adventure with me ? It'd be just you and me."

He saw a furtive glint in Remus' eyes at the last part and knew he won. In fact, his friend took out his phone and seemed to be looking for something on it for a few seconds. Sirius was hooked on whatever he was going to say next.

"There is only one train with seats available. It takes off at 6 and goes to some random ass village in Scotland."

Sirius leaned forward, closer to Remus, and whispered, "Let's take it". Remus smiled and whispered back, "Okay, Pads. Let's do it."

After that, Sirius' smile couldn't be larger. He took a drag and blowed the smoke in Remus' face, who swatted at him. That was going to be a good trip.

That's how, four hours later, they found themselves on an old train, ready to leave for Scotland. The seats were rather small so their thighs were touching. Neither were making any effort to keep them apart. They hadn't slept so Sirius was dozing off on Remus' shoulder. In his sleepy and drug clouded mind, everything was perfect.

"Dear travelers, welcome aboard this train to Hogsmeade station, Scotland."

So like they've been talking a lot about how they're all a bunch of fuck ups. And while sure they're all a little unstable and unpredictable, I don't really think they are fuck ups? Outcasts sure. People who have had a lot of bad shit happen to them? Yeah. People who have made mistakes? Who hasn't.

Like Laudna didn't really fuck up. She had the worst things imaginable happen to her, then was given exactly 0 time to heal. All the while she was being manipulated by someone who was supposed to "care" for her.

Imogen was neglected by her father and ostracized by her town and honestly came out as normal as she probably could have. When she was out on her own, with Laudna, they seemed to do pretty well?? It's just, being the leader of a group is new to her. It takes a while to adjust.

Ashton was used as a science experiment by their cult leader father. Then was dropped in the middle of nowhere where they found a family that didn't love them as much as they loved them. They had to make a lot of hard decisions on their own and just because they're not lawful good decisions doesn't mean they were wrong or bad.

Fearne being classified as a fuck up because did meet her warlord fathers expectations is crazy to me. (I know what they were getting at by calling her a disappointment. Doesn't mean I have to like it) On top of that, she had years stolen from her as a price for her parents actions.

FCG was programmed a certain way and they fought against it at every point they could. Their literal programming. Being taken over by something hardwired into I don't think counts as fucking up?

Braius was lied to then excommunicated. it seems like letting Nott and Jester in was like the only thing he did wrong his entire life?? He was hella devout before that??

Chetney is 4,000 years old and fucked his way through exandria. He doesn't have a family to disappoint and hes been making children's favorite toys for like ever. He hurt some people along the way but like. Does that constitute as being a fuck up?

Dorian literally did what he was supposed to do. His parents had a rumspringa and to imply that he's a fuck up for literally doing a rite of passage is beyond me. (If you wanna talk about fuck ups ask me about Cyrus) And even on his rumspringa he became one of exandrias greatest hopes.

And Orym. His insisting incident? The thing that set him in this course? His husband and father dying. In the same battle that he fought in. That's the thing he "fucked up" on. Failing to save those closest to him. And idk I think it's pretty cruel to call him a fuck up for not being able to save them against Otoha. Who also killed him.

psykers are a brilliant unintentional allegory for neurodivergent people. widely believed to be freaks that should be bullied into submission and socially sacrificed to oil the great big inhumane war machine; UNLESS our highly specialised skillset and oddball traits prove useful to that very system — if we can control ourselves, if we can pass standardised testing after suffering gruelling ordeals and abuse from all sides; if we can be just weird wyrd enough that our ~special talents~ show, but not so weird that we’re unable to adapt, the system will forgive us for our curse. still keeping us at a distance and making sure we don’t take a step out of line. we can make a living that way, as sanctioned pariahs tolerated only for their niche (dis)abilities. for a while. until it drives us crazy

oh and unmedicated adhd does sometimes feel like a portal to a hell dimension is always clawing at the back of your skull but that’s irrelevant

just came home from school and immediately collapsed onto my bed clutching at my heart and staring blankly at a wall as I listened to the last few minutes of wbn chapter 33 and now I simply have no idea how to move on from that episode and what to do with my life because huh. whuh. hey???? hi?? what???? /vpos

[coffeegnomee]

Anyone read Lord of the Rings and remember how Saruman went from Saruman the White to Saruman of the Many Colors because he started to manipulate each individual in specific ways that applied to just that person?

And his downfall was he tried to weave his web of lies and individually manipulate each person in the group from Helm's Deep, but his cunning words to Theoden made Wormtongue realize he was being lied to this whole time and he got so mad he stabbed Saruman in the back and threw him off the tower?

idk it's giving Kaboodle.

Previous part First Wolfstar part

“Okay, so we’ve found and destroyed two. How many more do you think there are?” Sirius asked Regulus as soon as he and James had returned to the camp. Regulus stared at Sirius incredulously.

“How am I supposed to know that?” 

“Well, you were his little follower. Surely there was something he let slip?” Sirius pressed. Regulus chewed his lip as he thought. 

“Not really, he just kept going on about blood purity and power. He spoke a lot about power. He said we should be always in power, over and over. He was obsessed,” Regulus racked his brain for anything else that might be helpful, but he knew very little about Voldemort apart from his abhorrent grammar.

“Always in power, where have I heard that before?” Sirius was pacing back and forth along the tree line, muttering to himself. “Always, always in power. Power, power, always in…” His head snapped up. That’s a family motto!” Sirius’s eyes stared into Regulus’s as though they held the answer. “Old, old family. Damn it, I can almost see it in that damn family's history book. Always in Power. It’s not the Carrows, maybe Selwyn. No, No, it’s the Gaunts! It’s the Gaunt family motto!” Sirius exclaimed excitedly. “The Gaunts are basically gone, there’s not been a new one born for decades. There’s only Morfin left and he’s in Azkaban. There was a huge thing about it. He killed a whole family of muggles. I’d have to look it up, but yeah, why is Voldemort spouting Gaunt words?"

“When was that?” James asked. “I don’t remember that.”

“It was before we were born in like the 40s,” Sirius waved James’s question off. 

“Riddle’s diary was dated 1943,” Regulus whispered. “What if he had something to do with it? The murders? If he’s related to the Gaunts, it would explain a lot. They were direct descendants of Slytherin and a lot of them spoke Parselmouth.” Regulus’s brain was sorting through the information as quickly as it could. “That article you read, Sirius, it might be worth trying to track down, it might be important.”

“Those records are going to be hard to get into at the Daily Prophet without drawing attention,” Remus, who up until then had let Sirius and Regulus bounce ideas off each other, spoke up. “You’re meant to be dead,” He pointed at Regulus. “You and I are missing and presumed dead,” He pointed at Sirius. “You’re a gobby werewolf who wouldn't even get through the front door,” He jabbed at Marcus. “And if James Potter starts asking about a specific incident involving the last member of an ancient pureblood wizarding family, someone’s going to start asking questions.”

“So what do you propose?” Regulus snarked.   

“Can you remember where you read it, Sirius?” Remus asked, ignoring Regulus. Sirius screwed his face up in thought. 

“Oh, shit, James!” Sirius’s eyebrows shot up his face. “Monty showed it to me, it’s in your damn library!”

“Looks like we’re going home again, love,” James spoke softly beside Regulus while Sirius hopped around excitedly. 

“That damn elf is going to have a fit,” Regulus groaned.
