Twenty Questions for Fic Writers

i've had so much fun reading other answers to these questions over the last few weeks!! thank you @nv-md and @sweet-s0rr0w for mentioning me in your posts!! i fear my answers drifted much too far into self-indulgence, but what's new for this blog eh??

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

22, but one of them is 11 separate drabbles/microfics in a 2k-word jacket

2. What’s your total AO3 word count?

293,865

3. What fandoms do you write for?

i'll only ever write hp on this username!

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

all drarry:

the four doors (legilimency healer draco + memory loss)

adventures in truth and texting (advent texting fic)

all i have to do (draco thinks harry is a magical fantasy but whoops he's real)

eight o'clock, tomorrow evening (four doors sequel)

two to lie and one to listen (8th year fake dating, sort of)

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

i respond to everything on the final chapter of a fic! sometimes very kind commenters will say something at the end of every single chapter, which is SUCH a joy to receive, but i haven't yet figured out a way of saying "thank you!" 26 times over without sounding insincere

(i also don't usually respond to comments on fics i've co-written bc i don't feel like i have? the right? feels like i'm taking credit for something i did not really do!)

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

also drarry: for lack of wanting, wherein harry thinks it's sexy when draco acts like an evil dick again, and draco is too in love with harry to tell him that makes him feel weird

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

man i think all the rest are pretty happy, all things considered? tho i guess two to lie and wrapped are the only ones that end with explicit i-love-yous?

8. Do you get hate on fics?

i've been quite lucky, actually! i've had the occasional demand to change an angsty ending, or comments that have been quite mean about a character who isn't supportive of drarry. oh and i've had a couple of people get suuuper mad when draco malfoy, death eater and snotty spoilt brat, makes mildly immoral decisions. i've found all of those quite funny tho, which i'm sure i wouldn't if they were legitimate hate, so i don't think they count!

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

yep! the vibe of two characters wanting to fuck but knowing they shouldn't for some reason (uneven dynamic, magic stuff, they simply haven't had a fucking conversation about it) is my absolute favourite. will read it every time, will write it pretty much every time too 😅

10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?

the closest i've come to writing a crossover is say no to this, a fic vaguely based off the storyline of the song from hamilton. it was the first drarry fic i'd written in about 10 years!

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

yep! not any under this username (that i know of), but someone re-uploaded an old drarry fic of mine to wattpad – and honestly, i don't mind at all. i don't think the fic is very good lmao, if someone else wants to take the blame for it, that's totally fine by me

(the wildest thing about it is the combined ff.net + wattpad views of that fic now top 2 million i think?! but despite that u have almost definitely not heard of it!! i've only seen it mentioned, like, maybe 3 times since i properly re-joined fandom spaces in 2020)

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

yes!!!! it's SUCH an honour!!! the four doors is in german, chinese, russian and spanish; thirst (drarry vampire fic) is in chinese; and all i have to do (the not-fantasy-harry fic) is in russian 🥰

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

yes!!! well, sort of – officially, i co-wrote per my last letter (i hope you choke on it) with @lastontheboat, but i really do think i was more like an alpha reader with knobs on. the workload split was at least 25/75, with j shouldering a great deal of the burden (and all of the brilliance)!

14. What’s your all-time favourite ship?

this is going to sound silly given that i'm definitely a drarry writer and only really hang out in the drarry sphere – but i don't have one! for hp, i gravitate towards ships with harry in them, but even that isn't a hard and fast rule for me

15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

nothing that i've posted! but i have tons that are never going to see the light of day. three recent-ish hp ones i've written the most for:

a fic i call The Opus, which is a drarry auror partners fic – i have 16k words written; it was going to end up a solid 100k. i love the concept i have for this fic so, so dearly, but a 100k casefic is not happening.

a harry/ginny established relationship smutty oneshot that is really nothing more than ginny being fun and sexy and harry being horny but, like, self-deprecating about it.

a drarry little mermaid au that i wrote for nanowrimo in 2019. like i MIGHT come back to this one day? but it's unlikely. pros: i do have 50k of it written already and the first draft isn't too far off being complete. cons: i have almost exactly 50k words of it written bc i hit the nano goal and stopped in the middle of a sentence bc writing it was SO stressful (that november i had two jobs + one volunteering role, and also i was moving house, so. a lot going on.)

16. What are your writing strengths?

god knows. dialogue and characters come easiest to me, ig? and i tend to cut a lot in editing, so i don't think my stuff is? overly wordy? so it doesn't require much brainpower to read? that could be a positive or a negative, depending on how you look at it!

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

i suck at caring about anything other than character dynamics, so my fics never have plot outside of something vague to put the main pairing in the same room

similarly, i'm not very good at describing locations – describing anything, really

bc i tend to focus on the "oh we want to but we shouldn't!" moment, i'm pretty bad at actually developing feelings in longer fics – that part always feels too rushed to me, but fuck if i know a way of fixing it that isn't just, like, write another 20k

i think my endings usually feel like a bit of an afterthought and often quite forced

the more i write, the more i realise i know, like, 5 ways of phrasing anything, and i just repeat the same things over and over

i'm trying to fix my lack of skills with plotting + pacing by planning extensively before i start drafting, but i think that takes a bit of the spark out of the final version? it becomes a bit predictable and samey?

em dashes every tenth word

i'm convinced ppl i respect are in group chats talking abt how annoying and bad at writing i am, and also lowkey (…highkey) i agree with them – so actually getting myself to write anything is super hard!!

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?

yeah man! i mean, i personally am not sufficiently confident in my skills in any other language to do it without help (and i'm not sufficiently confident in my skills in asking for help to do that), but it's fun to read imo

19. First fandom you wrote for?

i've dabbled in a few over the years, but the first was hp – it was a marauders era snape/lily/james love triangle fic that i posted on a forum on a hp roleplaying site – this was before deathly hallows came out, so i was very smug when my pairing theory (that i undoubtedly stole from someone cleverer than me, because i was 13 years old) turned out to be true

20. Favourite fic you’ve written?

god. @decaflondonfog recently told me that drabbles don't really count, so i? don't know? perhaps still the pine-woods scent the moon (guilty remus/harry) or taste of țuică (established drarry bringing ron in as a third) are the ones i like best, but i don't love either of them enough to be able to confidently declare them my favourite!

u know the drill: i got too sad and anxious and unfollowed everyone so i have no idea who to tag. if u made it this far please know i do love you very much, i want to kiss u on the cheek at LEAST, and would love to know any thoughts u have about the things u make ❤️

#as if i said 'a strength of mine is that i'm not too wordy' in this post #have u SEEN the length #fluxweed shut the fuck up challenge #my fic #tag game

Okay so, some of the SM2 dust settled and I'm not gonna do a full breakdown of the story, I just wanna express some general feelings I've had.

I think, and call me crazy, that there was a lot more corporate meddling hence some of the very questionable choices - Miles' suit with Adidas shoes. Like. I saw someone call the suit a "walking billboard" and I couldn't agree more. Not to mention they introduced it at the most inappropriate time during a fucking apocalypse. And he called it a "Miles Morales original" even tho the entirety of his standalone game was all about stepping out of Peter's shadow. I get they were most likely working on the games at the same time, but do the writing teams not communicate with each other? Now SM:MM feels almost obsolete because of that line. This whole scene was an advertisement and it almost ruins the moment when Peter opens up to Miles. What the hell was the point?

The whole game feels...off. And that's mainly because most of the writers were different people, you can check it on IMBD. The first game felt like a passion project, this game felt more like they were going through a checklist of "big things" that needed to happen. Like, I'm not saying it's bad, because the game has a lot of great moments, but it's not on the same level as the first one. Like I said, it feels more corporate while the first game was clearly more of "okay we're gonna give you the IP and see what happens" and since the first game was such a success, they've had more suits breathing down their necks. I wouldn't put it past Sony that they've had them on a tighter leash. Because that's how it happens in the entertainment industry - a passion project becomes successful, the suits/investors see an opportunity to earn more money, give the creatives less freedom, and that's how we usually get the generic Hollywood slop.

I don't hate the game's story, it just feels clunky and less heartfelt compared to the first game. You can especially feel it during the third act, there was barely any breathing room and the player kept getting bombarded by big moments that were difficult to digest. The story needed to be a couple of hours longer, it felt undercooked and things kept happening too fast. It's still hard for me to believe that the events of the game happened in the span of a few days. Peter's corruption felt too fast too. Compare it to Otto's slow descent into villainy. Yeah. Why not make the events in the span of two-three weeks? Why days? To me, it's such an odd choice.

And a lot of relationships felt underdeveloped too - especially Harry and Norman's, which was supposed to be important to the story. Then, Norman suddenly calls Peter his son even though they barely interacted? And maybe I missed it (or forgot), but I haven't seen MJ and Peter talk about the fact that he almost killed her when he was out of control? < you can dispute this, because I genuinely can't recall them having a conversation about this. In fact, I forgot a lot of things, because too many things happened in this game.

tl;dr - story isn't bad, it needed more time in the oven and less Adidas advertisement

[twopoppies]

hi gina! It's me again. I wanted to ask you guys if you have seen this video of Black Carrot (harry's tattoo artist from 2012-2013) talking about Harry and his life back in the day. He spills a lot about how Harry's 'possey' in 2012 weren’t the best people and that Lou Teasdale and her husband are not good people. He also tells about the industry and its power and how afraid Harry was etc and so much more (I haven't watched the whole thing). One thing that did scare me was that he says that simon cowell wanted to throw H out of the band or something. (Some larries also draw the conclusion that larry broke up during that time even tho I can't see why they think that).

So I was wondering do you think he is legit? As it seems weird for him to talk about his experience with Harry from 2012....like it was 11 years ago....it seems odd. Here is the link:

https://youtu.be/-YvZsEj26vQ?feature=shared

have a good day:)

Hi, love. I posted the video and spoke about it yesterday. You can read my thoughts here.

What on earth does any of it have to do with Larry? He got those tattoos in August of 2012. Have you seen how Harry and Louis were in 2012? That’s a ridiculous conclusion to draw.

Yes, I think he’s legit. But I don’t think what he’s saying is necessarily 100% fact (if you read what I write yesterday I explain that more clearly). I think he was just making content for his channel and he’s quite up front about why he’s speaking about it now.

Annual Writing Self-Evaluation 2022

Annual Writing Self-Evaluation 2022

Shamelessly stolen from @larrysballetslippers

1. Number of stories posted to AO3 this year: 10

2. Word count posted for the year: 83.245 (WTF??)

3. Fandoms I wrote for: One Direction

4. Pairings: Harry Styles/Louis Tomlinson and Harry Styles/Niall Horan

5. Story with the most:

Kudos: I Hope We Never Change 

Bookmarks: I Hope We Never Change 

Comments: love drunk, waiting on a miracle 

More under the cut.

6. Work I’m most proud of (and why): 

I Hope We Never Change was my first story and I've put a lot of heart into it. But I also have to mention my advent fic love drunk, waiting on a miracle. Writing 30k words in just three weeks is something I could never have seen myself do. It has been a challenge but I am soo glad I did it.

7. Work I’m least proud of (and why):

I Hope We Never Change Yeah I'm really proud of this one, but I also know I could've done soo much better. As is often the case with your first work, I think.

8. Share or describe a favourite review you received:

This one, because I love when a comment reflects what I wanted to portray. Makes me feel like I've done a good job. Same with this one. And I loved this one, too.

I also received some video reaction from my lovely beta @liberty-barnes which is just something else I love that soo much. <3

But honestly, I cry about almost every comment. I'm just soo grateful people enjoy my silly lil writing.

9. A time when writing was really, really hard:

Finishing Every Snowflake Is Different (Just Like You) was really hard. I struggled with fitting the pieces together a lot

10. A scene or character you wrote that surprised you:

No really a scene, but then again REALLY a scene XD, but writing Slow Hands really wasn't on by bucket list. It was, if nothing else, a great writing exercise and I'm happy people liked it even tho it had Narry in it XD. (also, if anyone sees this as a kinda sequel to I Hope We Never Change, I will not disagree, although I didn't write it like that it might very well be)

11. A favourite excerpt of your writing:

"All that will ever matter to me is you. My sexuality could never be more important. I haven't figured out what I am yet, but I know I’m yours. And I want you to always be mine. Whether that be my boyfriend, girlfriend, my partner.” (I Hope We Never Change)

12. How did you grow as a writer this year:

When I started again in June after almost ten years of not writing anything, I didn't think I would ever post anything. And now here I am, with 10 stories and over 80k words and I can't quite believe that even happened and that people would enjoy my writing at all.

13. How do you hope to grow next year:

There are a lot of areas I struggle with. Writing a scene with lots of people for example. I hope to get out of my comfort zone a bit next year.

14. Who was your greatest positive influence this year as a writer (could be another writer or beta or cheerleader or muse etc etc):

@liberty-barnes Miah, you already know this, but none of these stories would exist without you. Thank you soo much ily<3

@footy-met-mussy Tricia, you were my first real "fan" (lol) and I'm soo happy every time you comment on my fics or leave a tag or anything. ily

15. Anything from your real life show up in your writing this year:

Definitely. Gender stuff is always very close to my heart, but I'm sure loads of my own insecurities blend into my stories as well

16. Any new wisdom you can share with other writers:

This will sounds like no advice at all, but just write. Doesn't matter if it's good, doesn't matter if it makes sense, doesn't matter if anything's missing. I have so many things marked as unfinished, so many half written sentences (mark those, otherwise your beta will be very confused XD sorry @liberty-barnes :*)

If I have a scene in my head I'll write it even if it's just a few sentences. I can always change it later if it doesn't quite fit anymore, but at least I have it written down.

17. Any projects you’re looking forward to starting (or finishing) in the new year: 

Yes, I have a pretty big project planned. Can't wait to start writing.

18. Tag some writers whose answers you’d like to read.

@liberty-barnes @neondiamond @harryslonecurl @bananaheathen @wabadabadaba @lunarheslwt @itsnotreal @disgruntledkittenface @alwaysxlarrie @tommokat and anyone else who wants to

I'm really not trying to start a fight because I hate the grammys as much as you do and I think that, while Liam loves and supports Harry, him posting on Instagram is bringing him loads of negative attention or fake love from fake fans but what I don't understand is the need for petty remarks from ziams? I think everyone in the fandom actually agrees with Zayn's statement that the grammys are meaningless but we still get excited for our boys when they win one, we'd be ecstatic for each and one of them, so I really don't understand the passive aggressive reblogs of a years old statement and completely ignoring Liam's lovely post. As an ot5 stan I don't understand this constant need for ribbing from every corner of the fandom but I guess that's what it boils down too, right, not everyone is an ot5 stan anymore

Well personally I don't think harry deserved to win aoty (or any grammy tbh) it's simple as that. And having him win over other artists who made a much better album imo shows how messed up this award show still is. It all boils down to white privilege and having the right connections. They did set him up with that win tho bc it was obvious ppl would be pissed. And why should we be happy that Liam keeps showing support when H and his fans (even so called ot5s) haven't showed him any in all those years? When H's never told his fans to stop cyber bullying Liam when even Niall and Louis said something? Also personally, I'd rather ppl just don't reblog about one of the boys (like me with H) than only reblog posts about them to criticise them (like I've seen ppl do with Liam). And besides, H doesn't need my support, he's got more than enough with harries/larries and ppl in the media. But you're right, there's just not many ot5 stans anymore. Me included. I understand why this situation would be sad for you tho

#if you've been following me for a while then this reply shouldn't surprise you #anonymous #answered asks

[avalonmoonshinesstuff]

LOL thanks for the long reply. I disagree on Harry's rising tho. his hair is not curly but messed up, and I dont know as much astrology as you, but i know how certain risings makes me feel. I have North Node scorpio and they have always intrigued me, but Harry never did. Scorpio rising had a certain "lacking and oppressed" inner energy about them even if they are never abused or face pain in life. The way Harry WAS abused and pressured but kinda just knew it and recited it to us and never viewed that as something heavy like it should be. The way people think Harry SHOULD be more traumatised, but he isnt, is the mark of Aquarius rising, and the good things about healthy versions. They make anything negative LOOK lighter because they arent the deeply emotional and tortured Scorpio is. (Harry is but that's his Leo sun)

GINNY is more likely to be Scorpio rising because she had that "being held back" energy earlier when she was shy and always hiding (her h4 Aquarius do talk about Harry at home a lot lol), but later her Leo sun shines in public conjunct her MC, and i have always had a crush on her lol. Hinny is a good couple in their risings.

I spoke to @danpuff-ao3 about this a while ago and basically realised that every single one of us (unless using rectification methods, and even then, it's iffy) has a way of looking at the world, and we're meant to perceive (through the Ascendant, for example, or the other personal placements) the world. While talking to Danni, we shared our findings of Ascendants, but for some reason or the other, we couldn't agree with the other. We laughed and moved on.

I have Scorpio in my 3H (supposed to be my close-knit friend group, and people I can relate to easily). I never properly connected to a Scorpio in my life the way I vibed with Libra, or any other sign. So, above all the Timelord thing with Harry, Uranus (lightning) conjunct his Ascendant, Jupiter conjunct his MC (being seen as lucky), Pisces (enmeshment) 4th house (enmeshed families that stifle individuality and freedom, feeling called to sacrifice when it comes to safety/home), Moon in 4th (comfort from the idea of family), etc, I trusted my gut as well. The same as Danni and you, I experienced Harry differently. I couldn't find it in myself to sympathise with Harry's childhood (while I could understand Severus' and Voldemort's). It made sense that he'd be a Scorpio rising to me.

I haven't yet shed all my biases to say that I've actually rectified these charts with the highest objectivity (eg, my reservation of Aqua rising for bullies 💀). And even if I could, people connect to characters differently so a Character's chart can't ever truly be rectified to fulfillment. So, I ended up using the chart Rowling gave us.

I've never thought about Ginny (besides agreeing that I do ship her with Harry in the Het sense) but awww, you had a crush on her!

Just from their rising? Oh, Aquarius and Scorpio usually make Squares but maybe they share something more harmonious. Actually, even if it squares, it brings more spice.

Speaking of spice, Ginny's Sun and Mercury are almost exactly conjunct with Harry's North Node. Oh yes, she was his destiny, and it was spice. Lol, I already shipped them before but they are cute in compatibility.

If you've noticed (TL;DR), in true mutable fashion, I've let you know that I'm biased towards Aqua risings so MAYBE Harry could be one (he doesn't have weird teeth, though, does he?).

#and more #hp astrology #birth chart rectification #brief hinny #Harry Potter and discovering what Brand of Weird (Uranus/Aquarius) rising he is #subjectivity in rectification #so... yeah #Harry Potter is a ♏ rising #Harry Potter is a ♏ ascendant #Harry Potter is a Scorpio Rising #Harry Potter is a Scorpio Ascendant #I think JKR knew what she was doing with Hinny guys #shooketh #my asks #Ginny Weasley is hot and I'd let her dom me

Hello! So while wait for updates on your lovely works, I've been sucked into reading a lot of jonsas where Jon has these epic or real romance with others like Val, Dany, Ygt, alys, etc. And although it doesn't last or end well Jon still had romance and normal love. While Sansa is always in the abusive or toxic relationships and I need some of your healing because my girl is hurting too much but they hurt her so good and apparently I'm a glutton for pain.

Like I'm fine with Jon having past relationship and Sansa too but dang can't she have a past relationship that was healthy and loving and ended for natural reasons like her first love didn't work because the guy want to commit too fast like get married and although she loved him she wasn't ready. The next was because they grew into different people and although the still care for each other it wasn't what it once was, the next being long distance and neither wanting to give up their dream so they ended in good terms, idk just need her to know love in different forms. ( I know there are works like this but they are too few and far between)

Also what fandom and stuff are you into/watched/read/etc. I wanna see if theirs any more mutual fandoms

Ps. So this turning into a little rant, I just didn't know how to convey the idea into a summery or like a word/sentence prompt. While leaving room for you to explore your creativity. In general I'd like a jonsa ending but like Sansa has at least one story book romance. But if you see this prompt going a different way feel free to do so, my thoughts are a mess 😅

Ciao anon!,

That was a lot and I hope I've gotten everything clear on the prompt you sent!, but before diving into the filling of the prompt let's speak a bit.

Thank you so much for having come to my writing for some much needed respite for that kind of fics. I hope to be able to fulfill the prompt and give you what your Sansa loving heart wishes for!

First things first. About the fact that Sansa seems to have always terrible past experience as opposed to Jon's is because mostly in canon Sansa's experiences are terrible (Joffrey, Tyrion, Dontos, Littlefinger, Hound even Harry is not looking very good right now) while Jon retains somewhat a bit of agency (which Sansa lacks) and even tho even with Jon we're talking of a sexual predator (Ygritte), a character whose not very much developed (save for when she wants to kill a child; Val), another that canonically tried to emotionally abuse and subside him (Daenerys) and Alys (sadly) as a stand-in for Sansa, (at least most of the stories featuring her I've read approached her that manner, but I'm up to read anything different!) at least show-wise (which plays, imo, a big part on the collective fandom inspiration for fan fiction) Jon is shown to have ‘epic’ romances (Ygritte and Daenerys —› in one the woman he ‘loves’ dies in his arms killed by someone else, in the other he is the one doing the killing to protect those he loves) even if tragic so it stands to reason they would give him so big, great past romance (even if I have to owe that they usually speak of Ygritte in a manner of ‘not fitting in’ together and her being too abrasive for him, sometimes borderline abusive) while Sansa is stuck with simply terrible experiences, save for Jon who, in the show (and sadly as far even in the book) is the only character of some magnitude that doesn't abuse her, manipulate her, etcetera.

Still, what is fan fiction for if not for giving us what we want and didn't get to see?

Secondly what stuff am I into? Lately I've not been able to watch as many series as I'd like, but I've loved Carnival Row (and if you haven't seen it you totally should, because even tho it didn't get a s2 I found it amazing and it kept me on my toes all the time, not much for the romance if for the crime and for the way it depicted society when faced with differences in within) and I've been watching on-and-off Shadow and Bone, (tho I've not read the books yet and my fav characters don't get as much screen-time as I'd like them to). But GoT/Asoiaf level? I have Chronicles of Narnia, (which I adore, more so the books than the movies, tho they were lovely as well) and ofc Lord of the Rings, as those have been, tbh, the big ones that got me it reading and theorizing when I was a teenager. I love Star Wars (even tho I'm most a fan of the movies) and Star Trek.

I am a big Harry Potter fan, tho I've found the new trilogy (even if I have still to watch the last one) too hyped up and whilst I loved Newt it didn't inspire me as much as Harry Potter did.

I loved very much Fallen Skies, tho I found the last two seasons, and especially the last completely rushed and thus ruined because of it; as well as Terranova, tho people didn't like it at all since it didn't get, as far as I know, s2.

Love the 100 tho having been a book-reader first and show watcher later tho I enjoyed some of the changes made I'll never forgive them for the end the gave my boy Bellamy Blake.

Sadly there are still many series I'd like to watch but haven't gotten around to watch because real life responsibility, tho I must admit that one of my secret pleasures in a way is asian drama. I watch a bunch of those, they are aesthetically pleasing and just sometimes so different that the media we usually consume that I am able to watch them even if only for ten minutes a day while I cook or tidy the house, because they intrigue me way too much (I totally suggest you watch some if you haven't already!).

What are the fandoms you're in?

Now, let's hop onto the fan fiction!

Prompt: Sansa and Jon do end up together anyway, but Sansa has had, just as Jon, past experiences that were not abusive or tragic.

So, this one has been inspired by Happier by Ed Sheeran, because... I don't know it just gave me the healing vibe I wanted to give this one and it's also from a POV I never explored too, hope you enjoy!

I guess you look happier [In another's arms]

He's just returned from beyond the Wall, his mission had lasted for the better portion of the last three years, the phone-call few and scarce in between. He had managed to see his brothers and his cousin but a couple of times during a couple of video-calls he managed to make. He's excited to go back home, to embrace his mother and feel his father's strong chest welcome him home, his brother's excited welcome shouts, his cousin soft, gentle smile...

... still, before he catches the next flight to the Eyrie Winged Knight Airport which will depart tomorrow morning from Tohrren's Square he has some time to kill.

He had spent the better part of his training at Castle Black, in the North, manning the Wall before his first missions beyond, going back and forth between his new home and his ex-girlfriend's home.

Red of hair and blue of eyes, with a smile so bright it could rival the sun and an heart so gentle and kind it could heal the whole of the world unrest with one touch. He sighs and enters the bar, sitting in a corner, safely away from the main crowd.

He could join a few of Nights Watch recruits he can see at another table, it's mostly new faces, but he recognizes the black clothes they wear and the way they boisterously laugh and joke with each other. That's the moment he sees him.

Jon Snow. Last time he had seen him, he had been a lanky boy, all knees and elbows, as if stretched thin, lean and swift with his movements during a spar. Intelligent. His grey eyes were always attentive and never loosing a move. He had privately thought he would made a fine watchman one day, though he could be a petty drunk and a mean, little shit when provoked. And he had a temper that could rival a wolf. He is the only one of the group of recruits he knows and he debates if making his presence known.

Ironically it had been Jon to introduce him to his now ex-girlfriend.

She had been his best-friend's sister and she had been involved in all a series of charities so when she and her sister had made the voyage to Castle Black they had stopped by to spend some time with Jon, it had been that way that he had met Sansa. That way he had met the girl he had hoped to marry.

Jon had been fiercely protective of her as well, when they had started going out he had sit him out and whilst he had never been intimidated by the boy, that time his presence had been enough to keep him still on his chair and listen quietly to the series of terrible pain Jon would inflict to him — helped by the girl's sister and siblings — if he ever broke her heart.

Sansa had, had some... displeasing experiences before. And Jon had not hidden his glee in telling him he had been the one to inflict on them the punishment for having harmed Sansa. He had been glad she had such fiercest defenders both in and out her family, for when he could not be with her.

He had never had any intention of breaking Sansa's heart. She had been his sweetheart and for a long time he had dreamed one day they could have the life. They could move back to the Vale, from where he hailed from, he would make her the mistress of his house and give her all the happiness she deserved in the world.

Fate had, had different plans. Life had, had different plans.

The age gap between them had not been insurmountable, but big enough that perhaps whilst wanting the same things idealistically, they were on different pages. Sansa had been barely eighteen and he was already twenty four. By the time of his first mission had rolled around he was feeling ready.

Sansa... not so much.

It is a testament, he guesses, to her capability of discernment that she knew when to draw back. He did not realize it until later, well after the sting of their break off had passed to realize the real fear that had filled his hopes had not been that she would say no — as she did — but that Sansa would say yes and embark on an experience that was beyond her grasp, and grew to resent him further down the line.

Instead Sansa, sensible, reasonable Sansa had not let the romance of it blind her to the real problem between the two of them. She had told him, time after time — the nearest his first mission grew — that she was scared of what the prolonged distance would do to them.

He had been much blinder. Convinced that their love would win in the end, he had failed to see that when the burn of the beginning burned out, only the embers remained and those were to be stoked often and the right way to remain alive, burning with their inner fire, instead of becoming beautiful jewels, yes, but only to sport when one felt down and in need of doing a trip down the memory-lane.

He had fought for them, the Gods knew he had.

And Sansa had too, but her past experiences had taught her something he had not been ready to face yet, below her cheerful, kind and soft character, was hidden a wounded woman, a woman who had been under the thumb of boys not even worth to kiss the ground she walked on; and that woman had learned that love is about more than being in love.

She had still told him no, and while he had not understood that at first, that had been her way to fight for them. She didn't want them to start something they were not ready to finish, something that they were not equipped to finish. He had been stubborn, and she, in her soft-spoken, gentle manner had been a bastion, impregnable and inexpugnable.

Jon had even stepped in, at one point. Told him they needed the break, explained some of the goriest details of her previous experiences that Sansa had held close to her heart because of shame.

I am not telling you because you need to fix it, she has it handled, Jon had told him sternly when he had tried to stand up and go to her, demand perhaps answers from her, demand to know why she didn't trust him enough to tell him, I'm telling you because you need to back off.

He had learned then, it had slipped past Jon's lips, that he had been the one to collect her from her ex's house when Sansa had had a panic attack during a sunday brunch and had hidden herself in her ex's sister room, barricading herself from them, the bruise on her cheek carefully covered with make-up. Jon had stormed in, punched the git in the gut — got a report for that — collected her and brought her home.

So, he had given her the break she had asked for, after all his first mission would not last longer than a few weeks and he had been confident that by the time he returned they would fix the problem between them and their love would finally take flight and soar.

It had been grounding.

They had not resolved the matter, not in the way he had hoped, but he had understood that Sansa needed more time. She was younger, he reasoned, he could be patient as long as their end goal was the same.

So he had departed for his second and third mission beyond the Wall with a girlfriend waiting him patiently back home, ready to welcome him back with a container of her own baked goods and a soft smile playing on her lips. His third mission had also been Jon's first and he had met the girl that would become his girlfriend. Ygritte.

He had been cautious of the brass woman, but she seemed to make Jon laugh, when she smiled that easy smile of her she almost reminded him of Sansa. She sported red hair, a different shade that Sansa's rich auburn, but not for that less enticing, and while she wasn't exactly beautiful her voice when she sang totally made up for it. Low and raw, intriguing. But he had doubted she and Jon would last.

Jon was much softer than Ygritte and he wanted soft in his life, he might be hard as stone on the outside, but inside he was made of molten snow. In fact they had not last past Jon's second mission, he had heard that the breakup had been explosive, that Ygritte had swore and yelled and hit. Some rumors said she had even bitten.

His and Jon's life had taken different paths then, they had not shared any more missions, though he had learned that he had found a new girlfriend, a stubborn blonde girl who lived beyond the Wall and advocated for the freedom of her people. This one, he had thought, could be a good match for Jon, she had enough of the softness he needed, but he had not thought much about it since his own relationship had started to fall apart between his hands.

I don't think we fit, Sansa had admitted at last, just before he left for the Vale — supposedly she would have to accompany him — and by then he had started to dread the same, I think we have drifted apart.

To be honest he had expected it, though he had dreaded it. Their interactions lacked the spark that had animated them in the beginning, he was starting to resent her the wait she was making him go through, fearing she might be stringing him on without any intention to actually commit. She had been growing distant and more distant each time they spoke over the phone or by video call.

Aye, he had replied feeling deflated, ignoring the way his heart was breaking in a million pieces watching the woman he had been with for four years taking a step back from them. He had caught himself more than once giving a girl an once over, had felt like a traitor even only for it, in the pit of his stomach and while he never cheated on her... he still felt like he was involved into a one-way relationship that had lost its initial spark. We've been good though, he had asked her, haven't we?

Sansa's smile in that moment was the last hit, shattering his heart in a million pieces. It was sad, resigned, but also relieved. Maybe she had been afraid he would force her to stay, and he couldn't really fault her, seen her past experiences. Still, she should've trusted him more, after all those years spent together.

Yes, she told him that smile dimmed and he had felt like he was suffocating in his own tears, she had tears in her eyes as well, you've been so good to me, it just... it didn't work out.

He had nodded, pathetically he had almost told her that if she had accepted, by the now they would be married and maybe they would've been happy.

He had refrained though.

I know you wanted more, Sansa had told him, seemingly able to read his mind.

I thought you wanted more too, had been his acid reply. Sansa's face had morphed then, she had become of marble and he had known he had pressed the wrong button.

I did, she said, I do.

Not with me, though.

She had been unable to reply to that. She hadn't need to. And he had let her go. Had walked away before he fell on his knees to plead her to give him the chance to give her the world.

Jon had sought him out after their breakup, in that moment he wouldn't even have cared if the boy would punch him. Not only he could take him, but he had the sore need to throw punches too. Instead Jon had offered him a pint.

I am sorry, he had told him, I know you are hurting now, but you weren't there and you didn't see how she hurt before she took this decision. Always defending her. No matter what. He had guessed back then, that it should be beautiful to have someone so openly, so fiercely in your corner.

I feel like she took this decision years ago, when she rejected my proposal.

Jon had not replied to that and they had lapsed into a long, stretching silence as they had consumed their pints. When they had parted ways he had almost told him, take care of her, for me, but he had realized with a start he needn't because Jon had already left and even though he followed him out, he saw him sneak inside a bakery. He needn't to ask what he was buying and for whom.

Somehow he just knew.

Being beyond the Wall for the next three years had helped. He had been able to look inside and admit that whilst he might have been ready, he hadn't been really ready. He mulls over the fact, observing Jon and his friends from above the rim of his pint. He had not spoken much with Jon since that day, save for a couple of times, and though they never broached the matter Jon would let him know, in little ways that Sansa was alright.

He wondered if now, more mature and less stubborn, if now Sansa would tell him yes. If she was alright still. He pondered if getting up and going to Jon, ask him after her.

In the end he does not have the guts to, he stands up and leaves. There is the faint scent of citrus hanging in the air that freezes him as the voice that has populated his dreams suddenly rings out “Sorry!, we're late!”

He doesn't turn. Not yet.

“You took your sweet time,” Jon comments and is his voice lighter?, is it indulgent?

“Stop being a smartmouth,” she jests “I have a surprise...ta-da!” and then there's a chorus and Arya Stark exclaims “SURPRISE!” before she chants Happy Birthday off tune, soon echoed by the others. Must be Jon's birthday, he realizes.

He turns and gets a glimpse of her after three and half long years. Her hair are still long, curling at the ends, auburn and glinting soft like copper in the bar's lights, she looks not much older than she did last time they saw each other, but there is a different manner, more mature, to the way she holds herself.

She's smiling that bright beam that opened the doors to paradise to him the first time he had stumbled into his words to ask her out to dinner.

And she's looking at Jon. He ducks out of the bar before he can linger on Jon's answering smile.

It's a few days before the stumbles into them together again. He's stationed at Castle Black, which means he has seen Jon more often than not. He has grown. He's no longer the lanky boy all knees and elbows, he has filled out while he is still lean instead of muscular, he has let his hair grow some more and he usually sports them bound in a bun and he has to wear glasses.

He's more confident too, he is almost proud, though he has had nothing to do with his maturation. Jon doesn't avoid eye-contact with him, not even when he discovers that apparently Jon and Val broke things off some two years ago and Jon has been steadily single since then...

...not even when he asks Jon about Sansa.

She's been fine. Has had a couple of brief relationships, though right now she's single and finishing her studies for her degree. His voice drips with pride when he tells him that Sansa has now launched her own charity work and often accompanies him beyond the Wall, she is a fierce advocate for the Free Folk freedom and she's been trying to get the government to listen to their shouts for independence.

They've been in those lands long before the Andals and while they recognize some northerners as kin, as most of them descend from First Men too, they wish only to live life how their own tradition demand.

There is this quality to his voice when he speaks about Sansa... He had ignored it, before, but he is pretty sure it was always there to begin with. Pride, fondness and fierceness...passion, all wrapped into one. He has always had that tone whilst speaking of her, even when he and Sansa had gone out together and he was only her brother's best friend looking out for her.

He observes Jon then. Quiet that he is, his whole demeanor scream when Sansa is concerned; and he discovers that Jon now has a pet too, it's an albino wolfhound that he has named Ghost and he has received him as a gift for his graduation by Sansa. And it's true, Sansa is often at Castle Black and accompanying Jon beyond the Wall as he has become from an active member of the squadron to a diplomatic emissary, and he can see it, in the way they smile at each other.

In the way Jon's touch linger on the small of her back, in the way Sansa burrows in Jon's embrace... he can see it in everything. In the way the easy banter between the two of them always spark that kind of look between the two of them. In the way Jon watches her go, in the way his breath dips and the shaky exhale he takes every time she's persuading him of something.

“So,” he confronts the thing one time, he has been assigned to accompany the diplomatic mission beyond the Wall and Sansa has just convinced Jon to stay the night over so that they can take part with the Free Folk of their rite during the peak of the midnight sun period “how long has this been going on?”

“I am sorry,” Jon tells him “I should've told you before” and if he had expected Jon to look bashful like the boy he remembers, he was sorely mistaken “I just didn't know the words to use”

He sighs “Maybe starting with, Waymar, mate I'm going out with your ex would be a good place to start” he says.

“Sansa's been my friend long before I was your mate,” Jon's reply is filled with sarcasm and sass “if anything it should've been, Waymar, mate, do you remember the girl I've loved for half of my life, you know the one you dated? Yeah, I'm dating her now. That would've been more appropriate” he says.

A long silence ensues.

“I'm sorry,” Jon comments “that was... rude of me” he says “I cannot demand you take responsibility for things you did not know” he adds.

“But I did know,” he admits “I—” Jon's face is a myriad of emotions all together “I mean... I suspected you might have a thing for her” he explains “still—” he sighs “why didn't you tell me, though?”

“When you asked her out she... was so happy,” he says “who was I to destroy that happiness?”

Waymar nods. He has noticed other things too, the way Sansa's smiles would shine brighter when they were toward Jon, the way before they had been reserved, whilst now they're unreserved. The way her eyes always filled with fondness when falling on him.

He doubts Sansa had been aware of the extent of her feelings for Jon, more probable than not she did not realize until later, she's too kindhearted of a woman to purposefully hurt someone knowing she loves another. He doesn't even think for her it was that kind of love before they parted ways.

He nods.

“You make her happy too,” he says and he knows that's the true, he would argue — to his own detriment — that Jon makes her happier than Waymar ever did. Jon just... gets her, in a way Waymar never managed despite their best efforts (hers to be understood, and his to understand her) “happy in a way I could not make her,” he admits.

Jon blinks and uncrosses his arms from his chest, surprised by the admission. Waymar would like to be petty, really, but the time to be petty has long passed. He is mature enough to know he and Sansa might not have worked out anyway... they should've met differently and Jon should not have been involved in the picture and perhaps they would have had a chance. Fate had different intentions, life had different intentions.

There are still million of possibilities before him. He can see that now.

“You know?,” he says “a part of me was always jealous of the way you seemed to just... get her, without any difficulty. I thought it was because you had grown together, turns out it's just because it's the two of you”

Jon doesn't say anything.

“And perhaps I could've made her happy too, or— perhaps we would have drifted apart anyway” he says “I think— I know I was in love with her, but I didn't love her...not beyond that initial moment of falling in love” he admits “but you—” he pats his shoulder “you loved her before you fell in love with her, I think that made the difference”

“Don't break her heart” he warns him.

Jon straightens his shoulders “I won't,” he promises.

They don't speak of it anymore, there is no need to. And when, later, Jon kisses Sansa on her lips and Sansa kisses him back Waymar knows for them it's over. It's endgame. They are each other's person.

Sansa's blue eyes meet his and Waymar nods to her. Her smile breaks his heart a bit more.

She still cares for him, still...not in the way he would've wanted and that's okay. And her gaze falls immediately again on Jon and the way the Free Folk children run around his legs and the way he picks them up and the picture they paint.

I never noticed, he considers, but we kind of look alike. Jon and I.

For some time he wonders if that's what has drawn Sansa to him in the first place, then he decides it's a waste of time to wonder and he just cherishes his memories with the first girl who made him fall in love.

It's years later, after he has returned home for good that he stumbles, by chance, on a paper that talk of them. Sansa has managed it. She has been the propelling force behind the new treaty signed between Kings Landing and the Free Folk and in that guise the North has also gotten independence from the rest of Westeros thanks to a referendum and Sansa has been elected to lead the North in their new independent life.

The photo shows them in Winterfell, Sansa's childhood home, with her family and Lyanna Snow — Jon's own mother — he knows they've married some odd three or four years ago, and now Sansa is holding a small child, not older than one year old, balanced on her hip as Jon is carrying on his shoulder the eldest a little girl with her mother's red hair and her father's grey eyes. The girl has Sansa's same grin.

“Is that your brother?” he turns around, startled and the girl warm and kind brown eyes fill with surprise “sorry, I didn't mean to intrude”

Waymar sets the journal aside “No,” he says “but we've served together,” he tells her.

“She looks very beautiful,” she says nodding toward Sansa “do you know her?”

“Aye,” he says “I know her,” he admits.

The girl nods “They look happy”

“They do” he concedes “he's always put her happiness before his own”

A short story of how the got together, a gossip-story really, is written beside the photo. Here, her majesty Sansa of House Stark is depicted with her husband Jon Snow. They've known each other all their lives and have been childhood friends for a long time, they fell in love whilst Sansa Stark led her charities beyond the Wall advocating for their freedom as Jon Snow served as diplomatic emissary. Waymar would like to tell them that Jon has been in love with her far longer, and he suspects Sansa too. He wants to tell them Jon punched her scumbag of an ex and collected Sansa when she was falling apart. He doesn't though. That's their own private story.

And they are happy.

The girl smiles at him “My name is Margaery,” she introduces herself. Waymar is taken aback by her smile. He smiles back.

“My name is Waymar” he replies “pleased to meet you, Margaery” so, he ends up asking her to join him at his table at the bar, when she orders he almost expects her to order lemon cakes... instead she orders a slice of apple-pie with cinnamon and Waymar breathes a little better.

A few decades later Waymar meets them again. He has been married to Margaery for almost twenty years and they've had three children in the meantime. Sansa has stepped down from politics a few years ago, and she has retired with her family in Winterfell. Her youngest, Catelyn, is into politics as well and later when she'll be elected in her mother's place no one is surprised. Jon and Sansa are still as much in love as they were that day.

In the end, Waymar considers as Sansa recounts their whole story to a gossip starved Margaery that they are happier for the way things turned out.

Fin

So, this is just a little snipped actually, because you have stoked my inspiration, so I'll be working on several others companion pieces (one for sure by Jon POV and one by Sansa's; a couple of others with previous exes of both), so stay tuned for those too!

Hope you enjoyed this even if it turned out more about Waymar and the way he felt about Sansa than about Sansa and Jon, still Sansa's got a good experience before Jon, even if that too ended thankfully not tragically and I actually think we got this subtle Jonsa that I love to write. Anyway, with the other companion pieces we'll get also more of Jon and Sansa seen by their exes perspectives, and each other's.

You can find this on ao3, in my collection of prompts (x).

As always thank you for the prompt! Hope you have a wonderful day and as always sending all my love ~G.

Stranger Things

Eddie Munson

You and Eddie love most of the same bands and love to collect records together. I see Eddie loving cats. I could see you guys going to concerts together and just overall sharing the love for music. I could see you meeting at school. Eddie has his own table in the lunchroom but you never liked the lunch room because it was really crowded and it was always noisy. So every time for lunch you would sit outside. Nobody really sat outside so it was more quiet out there. There were only a couple people studying or reading books. Eddie was leaned up against the wall smoking a cigarette. You saw him and he saw you. He noticed your t-shirt that had one of his favorite bands on it. Nirvana. He walks up to asks if your just one of those girls that wears bands shirts but doesn't actually listen to the band. You caught him off guard when you said no and named your favorite songs (that most people don't know). This was the start of your friendship that eventually turned into a relationship!

American Horror Story

Tate Langdon

You happen to move in the house that Tate haunts for the rest of his life. It was halloween and instead doing what other people were doing which was going to parties or going trick or treating. You decided to watch your own movies up in your bedroom. You eventually got board so you started playing music. Tate had been watching you but you still haven't seen him. The music you were playing just happened to grab Tate's attention as he starts to make an appearance. Since it is Halloween, it is the only night that he can leave the house. He rings the doorbell and pretends to be a neighbor from across the street. He ended up hanging out with you for he rest of the night and during that time he spilled the beans on everything. You thought it was all bullshit until he even showed you everything about the house and when you met everybody else! Tate then shows up in your room almost every night and you guys just stay up and. talk and listen to music. Tate automatically has feelings for you. Ever since the moment he laid eyes on you. He eventually confesses and you do the same!

Harry Potter

Ron Weasley

You and Ron met in the library. You have of course already heard about him, since he is the best friend of the chosen one. He was huffing and puffing having a hard time trying to find the right book he needed to study for. It just so happens it was history and you were the best at history. Ron asked you randomly if you happen to know of any good books to read and you point out a few for him. You happen to notice he was also in the completely wrong section. You ended up helping him study that night and the he got a pretty good grade on his test. A week goes by and you're in the library as usual reading the books you loved. He happens to be there again this time for a different subject. He remembers you helping him last time so he decides to ask for you help again. You end up staying there till the library closed and instead of studying you guys talked. Now Ron is not one to come forward about how he feel towards someone so you just asked him to hangout for a little bit the next day after class. You guys then ended up hanging out quite a lot after that. You guys eventually became a couple after that!

Hope you enjoyed! :))

[diamondcitydarlin]

I know this is a very simplistic way of interpreting everything you said about queer headcanons and shipping, but you know that a lot or syklis have been very homophobic as far as I've noticed, because I've been attacked by them a lot of times. For example, I remember that one of them was against lokius because Mobius wasn't aesthetically pleasing to their eyes, as if that was a good reason. Others say "Tom Hiddleston won't kiss owen wilson", or that Mobius is a father figure for Loki in that very mean way that almost feel like if they fear, deep inside, that it could actually happen in s2. And that leads me to one of the things you also pointed out... do they feel threatened by lokius? Because, yeah the ship is not canon, but it has the chances to be it in the future, also the subtext IS there and is very loud imo.

I know exactly what you're talking about as I've seen it in action and have tried to avoid it like the plague, because the level of pettiness I've seen reflected really feels like 00's era Harry Potter fandom ship war drama, back in the wild west days of the internet/fandom where generally agreed upon rules of etiquette within an online fandom space hadn't been established yet, so people were just kinda awful and childish to each other even if they were in their 30's. Bully someone for a pairing? Of course! Tear apart a fanfic simply because it has a pairing you don't like in it? Naturally! Make smug posts in spaces dedicated to the non-canon pairings just to rub everyone's face in your canon 'victory'? I WILL LITERALLY DIE IF I DON'T.

A total guess, but I think if we were able to take a survey and compile the data we'd probably see that shippers of this lean younger. I don't know that for sure, but, again, the level of pettiness seems to suggest people who have not yet been through fandom ship war hell and back and don't realize they're playing with nuclear warheads. Or, you know, just being dicks, which should be reason enough to stop but that's just me lol.

Another factor of this hypothesis is the disconnect, I've noticed, between them and an ability to see Mobius as a viable love interest for Loki- usually because they have deemed him 'too old' and 'unattractive' because of it, so they just reinvent the relationship to be father/son because it still allows them to acknowledge the closeness between the characters while invalidating any hope of them being together (interesting how vague incest is ok when it's the other ship tho lol). They seem to associate Loki as 'young' and Mobius as 'old', when in reality, Owen and Tom are only about 10 years apart in age and both definitely middle-aged men. Like, I know Loki is your sweet baby boi and all, but he's ALSO got a receding hairline and handsome laugh/face lines so maybe acknowledge that idk.

So, be it intimidation that this pairing could actually happen in the second act of the show or just a refusal/inability to see a guy with greying hair as possible object of lust/love for Loki, the folks doing this particular thing are definitely acting out of a place of pettiness, immaturity and possibly a form of prejudice they haven't reconciled with themselves yet.

It was very obvious that your younger relatives were obsessed with harry. His music was amazing, he was handsome and a gentlemen, there was nothing you couldn't love about him.

Your older kid relatives were good at hiding there crush on Harry but your little ones, Mia, not so much. And it was very funny whenever you went to a family gathering with harry Because she wasn't afraid to flirt with him even though she had no chance.

-

You and harry walked up to the steps to your parents home where your family gathering was being held. One of your hands were intertwined with harry's while the other was holding a bag of goodies you got for the kids. It's been a while since you've seen all of them so this was exciting.

Harry turned to you before he knocked on the door. "You ready bunny." He asked you sweetly. You hummed a Yes before harry pressed his knuckles to the door, knocking.

You both waited a few seconds before the door open revealing your Aunt. She hugged you first, "oh my Gosh, y/n. I haven't seen you in a while." She pulled away and looked at you with a smile before she looked over at harry.

"and you too harry." She hugged him making him laugh. "Hi Y/Aunt's/n." She pulled away and laughed, "come in, the family is waiting."

You and harry walked into the all to familiar house. You both have spent countless hours here seeing that you both grew up together.

You walked into the kitchen where every female was. They all turned to you and harry and smiled. "Y/n, Harry!"

Your mom was the first to greet you both with a hug. "My two favorite people. How have you been?" She pulled away and cupped your cheeks.

"we've been good. Just enjoying each other's company." You said looking over at Harry with a smile. He grabbed your hand and smiled back.

Everyone in the room awed at you both. "Well harry, why don't you go to the living room while we finish making dinner." Your mom said. Harry muttered an okay. He kissed your cheek before walking to the living room where the guys where. You can hear them talking loudly once they noticed harry.

You sighed, sitting your bag on the counter. "So what are you'll making?" You asked as you walked up to the stove. Your Aunt turned to you. She saw the big smile on your face and couldn't help but ask why. "Now why are you smiling like that? Is it because of harry?"

you laughed and nodded, "yeah, pretty much." You stood up straight. "Uh, I just love him." You said with a sigh.

Your Aunt softly smiled at you. "We feel that way about someone we love dearly. I'm happy he makes you very honey."

She leaned over and hugged you from the side. You stared off into space, You did love harry dearly.

--

You helped out with dinner until it was ready. When it was, everyone gathered around the dinner table and ate.

Harry sat beside you; the whole time his hands where on your thigh, gently squeezing it.

When dinner was over all the older folks gathered in the living room for a chat while you and harry played with a the little kids at their request.

Mia instantly shy when she saw harry but it didn't stop her from playing with him. Harry had no idea the little crush she had on him but you did and you were going to be a little mean and make it known.

"Mia, can you tell harry you have a crush on him?"

Mia looked at you with wide eyes. "No." She shook her head hard and stood up from the floor. Harry laughed and looked at you. "Don't be mean y/n."

You gasped sarcastically. "What, I just want her to admit her crush. Come on Mia, do it." You said.

Mia shook her head again and ran out the room as fast as she could. You, harry, and the other kids laughed. "I don't know why she's so shy. It isn't like she has a chance anyways." You said picking up the Legos in front of you.

Harry snickered. "You're a mean aunt." You laughed, not bothering to look at him. "yes, Yes I am. It's fun tho."

I definitely agree about GMW, the whole third season was a mess but it's also been so long I couldn't tell you anything specific either lol. I haven't read Avalon High but I really want to! And after hearing what you said about it I'm even more interested! Have you read any other DCOM books? And what are some of your fave books in general? 🐭🎅

ooh! i haven't read any other dcom books where the dcom was BASED on the book, but i do have/have read the novelizations of teen beach movie & sky high (not a dcom but. close enough to count imo). i do own a copy of the swap but haven't read it OR seen the film the book's based on and i would really love to read lemonade mouth & its book sequel but my library doesn't have the books & i haven't gotten around to buying them yet. i have read all of the melissa de la cruz isle of the lost series & some of the school of secrets books and the school of secrets books are fun and the isle of the lost ones i think are just bad. but that's just my opinion.

as for my favorite books in general, hmmm! that's a hard question.

in theory i like the hunger games. mostly i like complaining about how bad suzanne collins is at worldbuilding & also representing minorities in her books. do not read the hunger games prequel it is BAD.

in theory i like harry potter bc it's a big comfort media but also jkr is a terf and that kinda ruins the nostalgia for me a lot, which sucks big time.

i LOVE LOVE anything by seanan mcguire/mira grant. incryptid is a big comfort series for me even tho i only read it for the first time in march & wayward children is just. beautiful and i absolutely recommend it if you like portal fantasies. feed is i think the first thing i read by her and shaun and george are just so special to me but also i LOVE LOVE olivia from into the drowning deep (she's so special to me bc i am also an autistic lesbian) and honestly her being an autistic lesbian is a side perk in a book about killer mermaids.

alice in wonderland is so good and genuinely it frustrates me when people assume things about it like it was written on drugs (no. like, yes, louis carroll/charles dodgson was probably on opium at various points in his life bc it was the victorian era and he had chronic migraines but the haha weird quirky stuff in alice is all math jokes and puns and stuff) or that louis carroll was a pedophile (probably not, it's possible but doesn't seem particularly more likely than any other rando victorian man having been one; i have read several books abt this bc alice is a special interest for me so i have a whole collection of alice related books)

i also really love gillian flynn but my favorite book of hers is sharp objects which is her debut. (major tws for like. so many things here)

i recently read howl's moving castle after loving the movie for ages and it was so fun and special <3

not really books but like. i love shakespeare. i wrote my undergrad thesis on the henriad and how henry iv wasn't planning to take the throne from richard and in fact by doing so basically violates his own morals and spends the rest of his life trying to atone for what he did & is unsuccessful. also i think hal is the best parts of richard and henry which is why he's the main character of the henriad despite not appearing in richard ii. i have so many things to say about shakespeare and can and have talked to ppl about shakespeare for hours on end bc i am nothing if not a menace <3

1. why did you choose your url?

y'all know i love love loved my old one @/darlingspidey which i still use as a sideblog on another whole separate blog that i'm on when things get hectic here... but i soon realised i was turning multi-fandom in feb and i had this url miraculously saved from before and went 👀 yanno what. and... yeah. my url that i've kept for the longest + it'll probably stay that way now (hopefully) <333

5. why did you start your blog in the first place?

5 days before we went in lockdown, i was still part of a toxic fandom and instead, already had a tsh sideblog (@tsh-darling 😌) to get away from it all in the meantime. it was my first tom mutual who supported me when i suggested it. not a mistake at all; i love her still even though we're both busy rn 💕 and you lot. i thought that i would never get my 100 followers back lmao
