Top 5 fave landoscar “moments”

from here

this is hard bc i have a REALLY bad memory. like moments only exist to me when i'm staring at them, but i'll try my best. also i wasn't here in 2023 so recency bias sorry.

shooey at silverstone. any. both. idc.

lando patting oscar on the helmet cheek after hungary 2024

that one video where oscar is driving on sim or w/e and crashes and lando goes "you okay?" and then smiles all bewildered. his facial expression will never leave my brain.

"i like your so kindness too" / oscar being there for that at all. why did he do that. WHY DID HE DO THAT.

china 2025 podium. i think this was our first ever happy landoscar podium??? right?? idk the private champagne spray just between the two of them after everybody else had stopped celebrating moved me.

top five harry and draco headcanons :)

draco -

had an idyllic (if occasionally lonely) childhood. he was doted on and got everything he asked for and grew up very defensive of his parents - not just as people who raised him, but as people he admired and looked up to. having to reconstruct who they really are and contend with all of their failings and what it says about him that he loves them so much is one of the great trials of his adulthood.

doesn't make or keep friends easily, because he doesn't like being vulnerable or asking for help or admitting that he was wrong. he knows how to get attention but doesn't know what to do with it once he's got it.

likes animals. he threw a tantrum at not being allowed to bring his childhood crup with him to hogwarts and didn't talk to lucius for weeks because of it. care of magical creatures would have been a favorite class if it wasn't for that oaf hagrid and it's not his fault buckbeak couldn't take a joke. he calls all of his friends ugly brutes. it's affectionate. obviously.

isn't very bookish, but does well in school because he likes to do well. he's a perfectionist, and hates it when he's not immediately good at something because that's humiliating. he'd rather not try than fail.

knows he's funny. his worst fear is having to repeat a joke because people didn't hear it.

harry -

is loyal to a fault, and his loyalty is not especially hard won. as a child, all you had to do was be kind. as an adult, if he believes you're good and you sacrifice for him, he'll defend if not excuse everything you do from that moment onwards. he's self-aware enough to know this is a blind spot and doesn't care. go put up your feet, he'll hide the body.

craves unconditional love but isn't sure he believes in it. everyone wants something. don't they?

is a highly conceptual thinker, and people underestimate him because they can't always follow his abstract thought patterns. he's not the best at explaining or expressing his process, so people think he's pulled stuff out of thin air, or gotten lucky, which suits him just fine.

is easy to like but difficult to know. he wants to be seen but doesn't want to be understood. he fears intimacy because it comes with expectations and he's tired of proving himself over and over again.

knows he's funny. the best part is when everyone else doesn't get the joke.

top 5 uses of wunder/wundrous creations? or perhaps just top 5 mog moments

going with both!

top uses of wunder/wundrous creations

jemmity park. fuck shit up odbuoy i knew i stanned you for a reason (idk if you saw but the most recent recap video had jess saying he was like 13-15ish when he did that so. king shit tbh)

the cunt of smoke and shadow. who said that. i mean the hunt. they're cunty. who said that. anyway. bark bark bark. woof woof. cocks gun etc. we've all wanted a creepy bad entourage which probably smells bad to follow us around and murder small children on our behalf. right?

mog breathing fire at heloise. god i wish i could have set fire to my school bullies. i would have been charged with assault and willful fireraising in a day but WORTH IT

killing the hollowpox. amazing. wonderful. slay moment. nearly died. etc

hotel deucalion. if it isn't a wundrous creation then i will buy a hat, spice it, and eat it

top mog moments

her "'tis but a scratch" <- not verbatim but funnier. to me. moment in hollowpox. girl i know you are a nerd at heart. embrace it

all her snarky letters at the start of nevermoor. she should be allowed to murder imo

choosing to save the wunimals even tho it means bc squall's apprentice + wanting so badly to learn how to use the wundrous arts and being tempted. being greedy. moggggg MOGGGGGG

end of wundersmith when she wants to listen to israfel and jupiter covers her ears. that whole monologue. my god jessica

the scenes when she's people watching with jack and being delighted at the gossip she's hearing. im p sure the first explicitly canon queer mention (not counting characters we find out to be queer later but like) in the books is that woman cheating on her wife. #toxic yuri

My Top Five Favorite Ben Daniels Characters (Gothic/Horror): 2. Santiago - Interview with the Vampire (2024).

[abby-howard]

Top 5 Ice cream flavours!

Cherry garcia. It's the best one.

2. Butter pecan. Pecans are good, and butter is good, combined they are good x2.

3. Sorbet. Any flavor except pineapple. There's a place near me that does a grape flavor when it's grape season, and it sure does taste like grape, and ice. Lemon is still better. It is always going to be the best sorbet. I don't know why I keep ordering things that aren't lemon just because they sound exciting, when I know lemon will show me a good time

4. Chunky monkey. This is why Tabitha has "banana chocolate chunk" in her freezer. It's fun!! It tastes like a banana split. I have not had one of those in ten thousand years, or maybe ever, but I can live the dream of indulging in one through the few bites of Chunky Monkey I have per decade.

5. I was honestly gonna put vanilla, but this would be a boring list if I ended on everyone's favorite. So I'm throwin in a wildcard, coffee ice cream is pretty good. Not worthy of a higher number. But I wouldn't turn it down at a social, y'know

[textless]

I mostly stayed close to home in Arizona in 2023, except for a giant amazing trip to Kenya in July. These are five of my favorite photos from the trip, for this year's Gray-Card Memorial Top Five:

Baby elephant, keeping up

Lions together

Lilac breasted roller

Mother and baby giraffe

Sunset acacia

I feel lucky to have seen these things, and would remember them anyway... but it's awfully nice to have pictures to look back on.

Happy new year, Tumblr.

top five scenes/lines/moments from drarry fic

rookie moves by peu_a_peu - not gonna lie, every single scene. but you put a gun to my head and make me pick just one, i'll pick two -

“You should’ve died, Draco,” Nott snarled. “If you had a shred of honor you’d have died.” “Well guess what, Theodore?” Malfoy said, with a horrible, mocking smile. “I don’t, and I lived.” Nott stared daggers into Malfoy. His hands went behind the armchair. Harry knew instantly: he was about to do something stupid. There was no time to do anything but give Malfoy a hard shove just as Nott cried, “Avada Kedavra!” A jet of green lightning cracked through the spot where Malfoy had just been standing, charging the air, hitting the wall with a terrible explosion. “What are you doing, Theodore?!” Malfoy wailed as he ducked for cover behind the couch. “We’re throwing AKs at ten in the morning?!”

jesus i've read it 800 times and i am as we speak gasping for air

McGonagall turned, and absorbed the other half of we. “Mr. Malfoy,” she said, quelling unsuccessfully what sounded like considerable shock. “Auror Malfoy,” Malfoy corrected her. “Professor.” “Well.” She blinked a number of times before speaking diplomatically. “I can’t say it’s the career I’d have predicted for you. But one’s former students do turn up in surprising fields.” Malfoy smiled the shit-eating smile of someone who couldn’t be given detention. Who was, in fact, medically calm. “It’s a calling.”

running on air by eleventy7 - you already know

Do you remember when we were eleven? Let's go back to that. I'll throw Remembralls into the sky and you can try to catch them. Sometimes I think you can just keep my wand. I think of all the Dark spells I performed, all the Unforgiveables I tried to cast with it.  But then I remember when I was eleven years old, learning Lumos and casting mending charms, and it's hard to let go of that. So give me my wand, or give me a timeturner.

trouble, my old friend by tepre - the one with the fucking buttons

He says, “Tell me,” and Harry – running low on sleep, confused and aroused and altogether unfamiliar to this new world of desire – can’t quite keep himself in check. He wants, for a moment, simply wants, knows not what to do with it, where to direct it, and the feeling bubbles like wild magic. He realises a fraction too late that no, not like, but magic – staring at the spot where Malfoy’s scar disappears below the high collar of his shirt. The stiff hem of the doublet, buttoned shut over his Adam’s apple. With a small sound, the top button of the doublet pops open. Then the second, the third. Malfoy sucks in a breath.

ain't no friend of mine by lettered - when harry's being a little bitch and dog!draco simply will not stand for it

Potter slammed open the door. For a moment he just stared down at Draco with that annoying face of his, with the insane hair, and the disfigured scar. Then he yanked the slobbery scarf out of Draco's mouth, and said, low and tight, "Leave me the fuck alone, why don't you; don't you see I don't bloody care; I don't want anyone near me; I DON'T WANT YOU; I NEVER WANTED YOU; GO AWAY!" And Draco all the sudden remembered why he'd joined the Inquisition Squad. Potter in fifth year had been exactly like this and it was really annoying.

draco malfoy's substitute murder service by oknowkiss - the one where draco hands harry his business card

Harry reads the card again. Flips it over. Looks at Draco, watches him sip his tea. Notices one of his bra straps is showing. Reads the card a third time. Fails to make sense of anything at all. “Have you lost your goddamn fucking mind?” Harry snaps, throwing the card back at Draco. “What in the absolute shit is this?” “Did you read the card?” Draco asks. He tucks it back into his bra. “I feel like you’re asking questions that have all been answered by the card.”

bonus 1: if an injury is to be inflicted by shealwaysreads - when draco meets ron and hermione The Morning After

Draco’s smile threatened to bloom into genuine delight at the look on her face. He had dressed deliberately casually, forgoing his usual high-collared robes for a pair of charcoal grey trousers and a pale grey shirt; open at the collar to expose the mess Potter made of his neck and collarbones. She opened and shut her mouth twice, before Weasley broke the silence and stepped towards Draco, towing Granger along with him.

bonus 2: owl was well by fencer_x - when draco flies to the burrow bc he's "bored" and gets beat up by crookshanks

“Er,” Potter said, giving Draco a comfortable berth of several steps. “That was Crookshanks. Hermione’s cat. We’re gonna watch him while she and her folks are in Germany for the holiday to visit family in Dusseldorf.” He frowned to himself, brows knitting in confusion. “I thought he could see through Animagus transformations, though. I’m not sure why he’d attack—oh. Guess he recognised you.” Oh, indeed. Draco ran his fingers through his hair—he probably looked a fright now. “I suppose it’s going to hold a grudge against me for all nine of its lives, then.”
