I just hear Chopin’s Winter Wind for the first time, and holy fuck I feel like my soul left my body to stare in the eyes of god. No wonder the Gilded age was so lit they were hearing these bone chilling bangers.

So I'm currently operating with Circe as the main villain in my planned urban fantasy shit, including a mention that H. G. Wells visited her Island for a Mediterranean holiday in the 1890s, became her boytoy, and went home with the inspiration for Dr. Moreau

Hi, I would really appreciate it if people would stop hurting my favorite AO3 Authors. Please and thanks.
Like what the hell guys? I'm tired. It's 2 am and I just found out that Greenie had to private their works?
I'm so sad and angry about this. I can't believe that it happened again and so fucking soon after what happened to Zar! What is wrong with you people???
Literally, all they've done is write things that make them happy and in turn, they've made a lot of other people happy too.
So what's the fucking issue here?
Is it that you think that just because you're on the internet suddenly your actions don't have consequences?
That your words can't hurt real live people?
And if you do this shit with the intention of hurting someone, then you need to go outside, touch some grass, and grow the hell up. Because guess what? The world doesn't revolve around you and your opinions! Crazy, I know.
I haven't been in this fandom for very long. Literally maybe only 6 months. And already I've seen so many people get beaten down by others to the point of leaving the fandom altogether. I'm so fucking mad right now and I don't have anywhere to put that anger and it's so frustrating.
How dare you ruin this for them. Don't you fucking get it? Writing is one of the purest forms of expression. These people are pouring their hearts and souls into their work and they are creating fucking masterpieces! They are turning their pain and their thoughts into pieces of art and all you can think to do is criticize? To be cruel to them because it doesn't fit your tastes?
Fuck off.
Zar didn't deserve this and Greenie sure as fuck didn't either.
I hope that they both end up okay in the end and if they never put their work out there again I wouldn't blame them. Would it break my heart? Yes, absolutely. I love their works. I love their writing. But if it comes at the cost of their own mental health, then I don't fucking want it.
And Greenie, if you see this, I'm so sorry love. I know we haven't spoken to each other and I don't know what exactly went down for you to make this decision, but I hope you know that for what it's worth, in spite of everything, in spite of the people that forced your hand, you have my support and my love.
Please take care of yourself. You deserve the world. <3

Since I finished reading this fic I knew I was going to do some kind of fanart, and the day has finally come!!
I tried being as accurate as possible, especially with Sirius' tattoos, also; this is how I imagine them after everything, they are so special to me <33
