Every so often I think about how special it is that both Albus Severus Potter and Scorpius Malfoy are Slytherins.
Because it's the house that brought them together. And it's a house that has previously been so misunderstood in the past, and you have two boys that have been misunderstood their whole lives. And this misunderstood house brings them both together.
And that's not even taking into account the fact that Albus has green eyes and Scorpius has grey - they were literally born to be Slytherins, and they were literally born to be together.
They are the perfect soulmates: they contrast one another in such a uniquely beautiful way, but they were always going to be together.
Albus would totally name his kids those silly little contellation/star names. Not bc he's trying to keep Scorpius' family tradition or anything (although that is a plus), just bc he wants to spite Harry.
Omg: I saw an absolute stunning show yesterday in Hamburg and the emergency cover of Albus, Nikko Forteza, was amaaazing. There were so many small scorbus coded details in his acting. It was insane:
A few examples:
- At the owlery when Scorpius and Albus sit next to each other, their hands were almost touching. In an glimpse of an eye Albus tries to grab Scorpius Hand but stopped.
- When Scorpius told Albus at the owlery that he wasn't by his side in V-World but he was fighting with him in his heart, Albus comes sooo close to Scorpius' face and he turnes his head a little...like they almost kiss until Delphi disturbs.
- don't have to adress the heartbreaking screams when Delphi tortures Scorpius
- In Godrics Hallow, when they hide because James and Lilly showed up Albus cuddles into Scorpius chest.
- Albus told Ginny in St. Geromes that he thought he likes Delphi and she's like, yeah but now you're getting clear about some things, he turns around and looked up to Scorpius who's standing at the front door of the church.
- During the fight albus walks over to Scorpius at the left door and grabs his face to get sure, he's okay
- After their last hug, when they separated he does the self-hugging at the stairs and also kind of a winner-pose. Just like "yes, he's my boyfriend now".
There was sooo much tension between Scorpius and Albus. I freaked out!
Ok but Albus acting out in front of everyone and Scorpius crying multiple times throughout the day when they are set apart is a thought that haunts me. Albus listens to " feel like setting the world on fire" music and Scorpius is like" I'll never love again".
•SUPER Protective. If he sees someone look at you the wrong way he’ll have an immediate grudge against them.
•Whenever walking past you will grab you by the waist to move you out of the way
•Cold to everyone else but Lowkey a softie towards you
•Pet-names would consist of; Baby, Darling, love, Princess, sweetheart, babe, and sometimes even honey(mainly only in a joking way though)
•CLINGY! Like I’m talking Cuddles everyday. You would basically live in his dorm at that point.
•Every time he visits your dorm he’ll always step something just so that you have to come see him to get it back. Bottles of perfume, ties, jewelry. Sometimes he’d even wear your jewelry, just to taunt you.
•Everyone knows you’re his, even if the relationship is a “secret”. They just know.
•Gets jealous SUPER easily, but is always too ashamed to admit it. He’ll see you apologize to someone for bumping into them and he’ll get jealous.
•ALWAYS right next to you at Parties. It doesn’t matter if you’re just talking to your friends, he’s right there next to you.
•If another girl tries to flirt with him he’s always quick to shut them down, unless he doesn’t realize that she’s flirting with him. Some times are more subtle than others. Whether it’s something as simple as “I have a girlfriend” or him full on sweeping you into a kiss in the middle of the conversation with the other girl.
•Always keeps an eye on You, even when you’re not together. He always has you in sight when in the same place as you. Whenever you’re not in the same place he always requires you to have your phone on and your location shared(modern headcanon), sometimes if he can’t go with you he’ll ask Theodore to go and keep an eye on you.
•If another guy is flirting with you he immediately steps in, wrapping an arm around you and placing a kiss on your cheek.
ok that’s all for now but I might make more of these. Let me know what other characters you wanna see<3
So I read this one quote somewhere "And now I'll have to live longer remembering you than I did knowing you" and this hurts. Because Pads was sent to Azkaban after 10 years of them knowing each other. He was there for 12 years. So during this time, Moony lived longer remembering him than he did knowing him
Thinking about Albus and Scorpius makes me tear up every night cause the thought of them makes me so happy. They’re too precious. I might be obsessed with them but I could be obsessed with worse things 🥸
The mirroring between Harry (bullied for being the "Heir of Slytherin") Potter and Scorpius (bullied for being the "Son of Voldemort") Malfoy in this deleted scene from Chamber of Secrets has me sobbing.
There is such a link between what Harry says here, and Scorpius saying: "sometimes I find myself thinking - maybe they're true too."
This whole deleted scene makes Harry's disapproval of Scorpius hurt that much more because Harry knows how it feels to be called such awful names. He knows how it feels to be accused of being something but he's so blinded by his own trauma that he doesn't think about Scorpius.
It helps to explain why Albus was so frustrated at his dad for being so short-sighted.
And I imagine Harry was so apologetic when he came to his senses. Him and Scorpius have so much to bond over.
This is just some very basic information about the next gen characters as I see them in my own hcs. I've made some for other canon characters as well as some of my OC's, if anyone wants that

What could have saved the "HP and Cursed Child" plot?
I believe that the script circus (this is the most censored phrase that I can use) that occurs in "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" could have been avoided, if not all, then almost all if only Severus had stayed alive and continued to lead teaching activity at Hogwarts. Many of the problems in the play stem from the fact that Albus Potter was unloved by his family and was practically an outcast at Hogwarts. Snape, as a true “Slytherin daddy” and a man who devoted many years of his life to caring for “little snakes”, would simply stop any bullying of Albus. Severus would have silenced half of the Hogwarts students by any means, and Harry and James Sirius Potter themselves would have been forcibly dragged into the dungeons to scrub dirty cauldrons until late at night.
Severus: "You might have learned over the years that you shouldn't provoke me, Potter."
Harry: "Snape, I understand everything, but… He is not your son!"
Severus, who quickly rushed to hug Albus Potter: "Don't listen to him, Albus. He doesn't understand what he's saying."
James Sirius Potter: "Now I understand why the Slytherins adore him…"
