Short post! Still alive, still writing, still haven't forgotten chapter. Obviously the whole hoping yo get it done before travel didn't work out great so, for now, I'm fitting things in as I can between my frankly crazy work schedule (my dissertation is due in about a month so life's kinda weird). Chapter is coming as soon as it can so hopefully really, really soon. Sorry for the delays 😬

AHHH I finally finished this after what feels like forever!!
This is fanart for the amazing @greycappedjester ‘s SPECTACULAR fanfic series Haikyuu at Hogwarts! I found the fic a couple years ago and it’s lived in my head rent free ever since. Their writing is incredible and it’s my top favorite fic ever! Please please please go check them out and support them!
(They also have fics for different fandoms or a few more Haikyuu ones that are equally as good, like their Cards series!)
It was super fun to draw this piece. I’ve wanted ti draw fanart for this for a while now but wasn’t sure what scene/part I should do…in the end, I decided on a random Investigator’s Club meeting bc even though Akaashi is my favorite and the reason I started reading the series in the first place, Investigator’s Club has stolen my heart. Also, messy background supremacy!! I spent too long on the characters and had no motivation to try very hard at the background
Thank you so much for your amazing work in this series and your other fics. Your writing is inspiring and I look forward to reading more of your stuff in the future!!
(Also I am kind of clueless when it comes to tumblr (I actually only downloaded to follow greycappedjester) and tagging? In this place?? Is weird? So don’t judge me that…and idk how to put in like a link to the fic, Ik I’m useless but take my art at least)

Hey, guys, I know I'm behind on the next chapter update. I've been out if town a lot these past few weeks and I overestimated how much writing I could do between that. Chapter should be out within the next week (so between now and next Thursday)...before I have to go out of town again for a wedding.

Please watch out for fake Palestine gofundmes in your inbox. I got one and I double checked if it was legit by reverse image searching a photo from the blog's pinned post and found a real gofundme under a different name with all the same text otherwise. The blog's oldest post is 7 hours and their link took you to paypal instead of the gofundme website.
Remember, if someone is asking for money in asks, check how old the blog is and try to look up the text or images used. Stay wary of links too.

I didn't realise that I had never encountered real aro rep until I came across your Science and Mentalism series. As an aroace person, your series means the world to me.
I mean sure, I've seen fictional characters being labelled as aromantic, but that aspect of those characters were never really explored, and never like this. I don't know how to describe what I felt when I saw that side of myself typed out on a screen, staring back at me, but it was somewhere between heartache born from understanding and warm fuzzies. I may or may not have teared up while reading it.
Thank you for writing this and sharing it with the world. They are now some of my favourite pieces of writing.
If you see a spike in kudos/bookmarks, they're probably from all the friends I'll be sharing this series with within the next few weeks. Acutally, scratch that. I don't think I'll ever be able to stop recommending your series to people.
You have even managed convinced me to start watching Haikyuu, just so that I'm able to read more of your writing. I'm sure my friend will appreciate having someone to share her love for Haikyuu with.
(PS. I don't read a lot of romance, but your description of SenGen's third kiss is hands down the best description of a kiss I've ever encountered. The Desperation. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go reread Science and Metalism again, and this time take notes on how to improve my own writing.)
Thank you so, so much. Honestly, I cannot express how much I love hearting that story has resonated with people. It meant a lot to me writing it and continues to mean a lot to me now. I'm so glad you enjoyed it.
Also, yay, I'm so glad I convinced you to start watching Haikyuu. It's a great series about a bunch of dorks that I love dearly!

Yayyy a new chapter for HQ@HW! I’m glad you’re back, I rlly enjoyed it.
The Records Division sounds interesting. Once it was brought up I instantly thought about Hinata and how his parents are unknown, since it keeps track of magical births.
He went through records the first year at HW to try to find his parents but didn’t work. Maybe this could help him?
I’ve connected the two dots😊😭
Thank you!!!
Yeah, the Records Division is definitely going to come up, can promise that.
I will say that, for the most part, it only keeps track of informationt hat's offically recorded. So like birth certificates that have been issued, marriage certificates, and (perhaps most interesting) magic family trees which--as seen in the second story--aren't exactly the same as bio family tree as they also include peopel adopted by magic into the family. I'll also say that, since it's all offical recors, it can also have misinformation like the offical death certificates and autopsy reports for the Ghosts that escaped even tho they aren't really dead. If an offical report was issued, it's there.
Compared to the complex in a different way, Hogwarts list, which just keeps track of every person born with magic within the Magical Great Brittain area. Like just a huge list of names and ages...which I like to also think the name on the list can change as the person grows, it's the name the person knows themself as (*cough* in other words, trans rights in the Wizarding World, the magical list says no to deadnaming)

Heyy, I hope you're doing well. I loved the newest chapter of HQ at Hogwarts and I'm so excited for the regular updates again. See, I'm here for help. I found that story years ago and I've been reading since then and I have been trying to make a playlist, specifically around The Investigator's Club, because I love those guys. But I simply can't pick out more than 25 songs that fit the vibe and I've been trying for yeaaars. My question is, do you have a playlist for hq@hgwrts, and if you do, can you please share it/share some of the songs in it? That'd be absolutely amazing. No pressure tho, if you don't want to. Lots of love <333
:) Thank you for the ask!
Hmmm, I don't have a playlist per se. But, I do have a few songs that over the years, I've used a lot to help plan the series. The one I always associate with Hq at Hgowarts since I've planned a lot of the series while listening to it is Home by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes. I'm not entirely sure why, I think it's just the dream of working to/returning to a time of warmth/comfort/comparative innocene matched up with a march like beat reminds me of people fighting for the love that they hold dear which I find relatable to a lot of characters in the story.
Other than that, I feel liek the songs I listen to vary a good bit based on the time and story I'm writing. For this fifth one, for example, I've been listening to some more angsty ones to fit the tone: It's Alright by Mother Mother, War by Former Vandal, Achilles Come Down by Gang of Youth, and Campus by Batille (which I first listened to because of this amazing fanvid and now associate a lot with Akaashi).
Like I said, those are all fairly angsty because of the tone fo the fifth story. Not all the songs I listen to are, I'm just struggling to pick a few that I specifically listen to for the series rather than just in general.
If you do make a playlist, however, I would love to hear it!

hii! I was just wondering for hq at hogwarts, are Inferi gonna play a role at all in the story?
I don't have any plans for them to have a role.
The thing is...Voldemort was just a straight up villain, like I don't even think he thought he was on the morally right side. The Death Eaters were like cartoonishly evil and had a freaking skull with a snake as a symbol (ya know in case being called Death Eaters wasn't enough). He's totally a guy who would use dark magic zombies for vibes alone.
I just feel like most people don't work that way. Even if they're on the morally wrong side, they don't think they are. They justify it to themselves. That's what I wanted Ichiro and Hisashi to represent, people who destroy the world under the funamental belief that they're the ones helping it. While they absolutely would and likely did use dark magic to achieve those goals, it was use of dark magic with a purpose (end justifies the means). Something just openly creepy and evil like inferi I don't think would appeal to them and, since they don't really have anything they were guarding, the inferi wouldn't really have a point.
Thanks for the ask!

Hello! Hope you’re doing good! I’m rereading the first Hq@Hg and I’m curious if the things that happened with the Crows in the Forbidden Forest in Ch 22 are gonna come back up, or more like when…because some things were very suspicious…and also I don’t doubt it’s some good ol’ foreshadowing of yours lol
Like with Yamaguchi being the sword carrier? And the secret passageway? The unicorns?? Whats all that about 👀 I have theories
Yes. Yes, those things will very much come back. It's kinda funny while I was writting the first story I kept being like man, I hope people read this first one cause like a good percent of it is foreshadowing that won't pay off for years.
It's hilarious to me that the forest scene is legitamately one of the closest times a character has come to dying that entire book and none of the characters (including the one it happened to) have ever realized.
What I can say is this. Asahi was nervous around the unicorns because, especially at this point, he was scared that the pure magic of the unicorn would recognize him as a monster (a werewolf). The unicorn wouldn't, that's just Asahi's self esteem issues at play.
Second, when Asmund the centaur says "There are things in the forest that you are not yet ready to face,” he looked back down at the boys. “Even for one such as you.”
He meant Asahi being a werewolf. Also, for a bonus, since I already knew I was planning for Noya to be the red herring werewolf (which is a fun image now that I say it), I decided to immediately call attention to Noya after that line: Noya looked away from the centaur’s intensity before Asmund turned and made a gesture with his neck for them to follow.
So, yes, I did foreshadow my red herring *jazz hands*
Point is, yep, a lot of things from that chapter will come into play later on. Some not until the seventh story
Thanks for the ask! Hope you're doing well, too.

hello! I‘ve been both rereading hq at hogwarts and the harry potter series lately and was thinking that the Bokuto‘s home in hq at hogwarts does resemble the Burrow which had me wondering if there’s also gonna be a place in the fic sort of like 12 Grimmauld Place?
Oooh, okay full confession: I didn't have any plans for a Grimmault Place-esque building...until I read this ask and had a cool idea on how to work it in. So, the answer as of now is yes, there will be a place like that.
As a fun side fact, I always kinda picture Suga's family home as similar to the Malfoy Manor
