Poor Barnaby, he just has lots of love to give (which he didn't receive)
just out here spitting truth bombs, aren’t ya? 😭
from what i remember from the game he had a pretty shitty home life…
and from reading his wikia article
his own dad called him stupid and told him off for crying while helping to exterminate pixies
his first spell was summoning a jar of biscuits from a tall shelf and sharing them with the neighbourhood squirrels
he didn’t have any (real) friends until he was 13, so you can bet he loves them with all the strength he can muster (which is a lot, the boy is built like a brick shithouse)
i’ll bet he’d have loved to let his little self know it was going to get so much better..🥹

"I wonder what kind of sleepovers they have in Slytherin. Bet they spend the night worshipping the Dark Lord and preaching the importance of blood purity"
"Yeah, they probably just have silly tea parties and talk shit about the rest of us, those pompous snakes"
Meanwhile, the Slytherin dorms on a normal day:

Hii! Could I request an Ominis x Fem Ravenclaw reader. Something like the Reader is really interested in the giant squid in the lake, so Ominis tries to sneak her into the Slytherin common room (with the help of sebastian maybe?) So she can get a better look at it
"J'adore les calamars géants<3" "Je t'aime."
Have a Look (O.G)
I always loved the idea of the Giant Squid in the lake, and apparently it was supposed to show up in POA, but they scrapped that script :( Anyway, I like having the reader/Sebastian describe things to Ominis, because I do the same thing to my two blind cats, even though they don't really care, but they're very good at getting around. I hope you enjoy!<3 (there's a meme hidden in here, I laughed a bit after I wrote it and just kept it there)
Tumblr media
 Students chattered around you as you walked with Sebastian and Ominis through the halls, classes over for the day. You held a book you had borrowed from the library about the history of the castle, flipping through the pages as you walked. Ominis stuck close to you, leading you through the halls as you kept your eyes glued to the pages, muttering. “You have plenty of time to look at your book, you know. Perhaps it could wait until we’re no longer walking?” You shook your head, the sound of the pages turning the only response to Ominis’ question. He sighed, instead making conversation with Sebastian. Sebastian chuckled, glancing over at you. “Ravenclaw’s do what they do best, you know.” Ominis sighed, grabbing your sleeve as he pulled you over and closer to him, seconds before you collided with another student.
      “Found it!” You said to yourself, tapping your finger to the page you had flipped to. By now, the three of you had made it outside near the lake, one of the spots you hung around after classes. Sebastian plopped onto the soft grass, sighing as he watched you walk to the dock. Ominis followed you, your footsteps tapping on the wood as you walked to its edge. “I suppose you found another entry about the Giant Squid?” Ominis asked, finding a post, and using it to help him sit down, listening as you let out a hum and sat down next to him. “Indeed. Listen to this!” You said excitedly, reading from one of the entries. “Say’s here that it’s suspected that the Giant Squid is actually Godric Gryffindor!” Ominis let out a scoff, shaking his head. “There’s no way, how old would that make him?” You tapped your chin as you tried to do the math, furrowing your brows. “It was the Tenth Century, so at least a thousand years?” Ominis shook his head as he smiled. “You think a thousand-year-old wizard would want to be a giant squid? What would he even do?” You shrugged, flipping through the pages again.
      “Oh, never mind.” You sighed, closing the book, and placing it beside you. Ominis turned his head, confused. “What’s the matter?” You bit the inside of your cheek as you hung a foot over the water, swinging it slightly. “It said it was unlikely, given that he, you know, died.” Ominis chuckled as he leaned back, the warm rays of the sun tickling his face. “Perhaps the squid was his pet? That would be rather interesting.” You shook your head, looking over the water as small fish swam by, small ripples forming as their fins skimmed the top. “All the books ever say is that its big, they don’t even agree about what colour it is.” You brought your foot back up, crossing your legs and you rested your arms on your knees.
      Ominis sat beside you in silence, thinking. Sebastian had mentioned that there was a spot in the Slytherin common room where you could see the squid as it swam by, but since Ominis wasn’t able to confirm it, he had no idea if Sebastian was joking with him or not. There was also the problem with getting you in; you weren’t a Slytherin. You watched as Ominis’ face changed as he thought to himself, admiring the way he looked in the sun. Sebastian walked up to join you at the edge of the dock, a collection of flat pebbles in his hand that he had collected. “I bet I can skip the farthest.” He said, smirking down at you. You smirked as you got up, grabbing Ominis’ hand and bringing him up with you. “If you think you can beat me, why don’t you place a bet on it?” You teased, grabbing some of the rocks from Sebastian’s hand. He thought for a moment, trying to figure out if it was worth the loss of a Sovereign. “Perhaps. How about, instead of coins, you do some of my assignments for me when I win, Miss Knowledgeable?”  You scoffed in response, nodding as you tossed a stone, skipping it five beats away. “If you win, Sallow. And that’s a big if.” Ominis smiled as he listened to the two of you as you skipped the stones, Sebastian’s voice whining each time yours skipped farther. “Oh, I didn’t say what I wanted when I won!” You paused, thinking. “How about, you have to buy me some sweets next time we go to Hogsmeade?” Sebastian sighed as he nodded, skipping another stone.
      The three of you walked back to the castle, Sebastian’s face sour after you had bested him at skipping stones as you hummed to yourself beside him. Ominis walked between the two of you, still pondering to himself on how to let you see the squid you had become so fascinated with. You began to turn off to the hall that led to the Ravenclaw common room, waving to Sebastian. “I’m off, I’ll see you two tomorrow!” Sebastian waved to you, turning to head to his own common room. Ominis stood, quickly blurting out. “Meet us here around midnight, there’s something you must see.” You looked at him, puzzled. “Midnight? But that’s after hours. Where would we even go?” Ominis shook his head, “You’ll see.” With that, he turned back and walked with Sebastian, who looked at Ominis in confusion.
      “What are you planning?” Sebastian asked, walking into the common room. Ominis walked toward the part of the room that showed the lake, beckoning Sebastian to follow. “You said you could see the giant squid in here, right?” Sebastian looked through the glass as he nodded. “Right, it swims by a lot at night. Why do you ask?” Ominis pointed to the glass, the cool surface smooth against his finger. “She wants to see it, so why not show her?” Ominis said, already set on his plan. Sebastian could only shake his head, “There’s no way she’d get in. Even with the password, someone will spot her.” Ominis smiled as he pointed his finger into Sebastian’s chest. “Only if she looked like a Ravenclaw. Most will be sleeping, anyway. We can give her an extra set of robes to change into so we can sneak her in, pretty simple.” Sebastian smiled, feeling that his devious actions had rubbed off on his friend after all these years. “Since when did you get so daring, Ominis?” He shrugged, turning to head back to the couch. “She loves the thing, why not let her see it when we basically have it in a giant tank?” Sebastian nodded, following Ominis as they busied themselves until the time ticked to midnight.
      You waited anxiously outside the staircase, shivering slightly as a draft passed by. You wracked your brain for an explanation for why you were to meet the boys so late. You sighed as you shifted your footing, looking around for any sign of Ominis. A small light appeared at the end of the hall, and you watched as two shadows made their way over to you. You quickly ducked behind a pillar and held your breath, not wanting a professor to catch you sneaking around after hours all by yourself. “Y/n?” Ominis whispered, appearing beside you. You jumped; eyes wide as you turned your head to be face to face with the boy. Ominis felt the air shift as you jumped and the small puff of air that left your mouth as you gasped, taking a moment before realizing that he was too close. “Sorry, I didn’t know where you were.” He apologized, taking a few steps back. You settled your breathing, placing a hand to his shoulder to steady yourself. “It’s fine, just scared me a bit is all.” Sebastian popped up beside Ominis, a sly smile on his lips as he held a bundle of robes, causing you to jump slightly again. Ominis smiled as he felt your grip tighten on his shoulder, opting to take hold of your hand and leading you away from the stairs.
      “What’s that you’ve got there, Sebastian?” You asked, eyeing the bundle in his arms. Sebastian smiled as he pushed the robe into your free hand, “You’ve been sorted into Slytherin tonight, time to get dressed.” You frowned, looking between the two boys. “Why?” Ominis shook his head as he let go of your hand, tugging at robe you were currently wearing. “No time, just hurry and change.” Sebastian watched, amused, as your face flushed, quickly taking of the blue and black robe; with the help of Ominis. You quickly slipped into the new robe, the green becoming a stark contrast to what you usually wore. “Now what?” You asked, watching as Sebastian took your original robe and hid it behind the pillar, pointing to it so you knew where it was. Ominis grabbed your hand once again, leading you down the hall they had come from.
      “Now, you need to remember this word, ok? It’s important.” Sebastian stated, and you nodded, confused. “The door needs a password, or else you can’t get in. At the moment, it’s Blighters, so don’t forget it.” You nodded, repeating the password to yourself. “Blighters, got it. But why do I need a password?” You asked, furrowing your brows. Ominis chuckled as he walked listening to Sebastian sigh. “Aren’t you supposed to be in Ravenclaw? Smart?” You nodded, frowning. “We’re sneaking you into the Slytherin common room, obviously.” You sighed, shaking your head. “I was sort of hoping you weren’t going to say that. We could get into serious trouble, you know.” You stated, looking around as you walked. Sebastian scoffed, “Obviously. Look, it wasn’t even my idea this time. You can thank Smitten over there for that.” You looked at Ominis, who turned his head and nodded, a slight pink dusting his cheeks. You playfully slapped Sebastian’s arm, ignoring the nickname he had given Ominis. “You’ve corrupted our boy!”
      You walked up to the entrance of the Slytherin common room, eyes wide as you looked at the details around it. Sebastian and Ominis stood beside you, watching in amusement. “I just say the password then?” You asked, turning to Ominis, who nodded. You took a breath, watching the snakes that had settled around the door frame. “Blighters.” The two snakes began to move, and you watched in amazement as they seemed to just slither along the wall, revealing the door to the Slytherin common room. You smiled as you peaked inside, unsure if you were able to walk in. Sebastian walked in first, turning and gesturing for you to follow. You looked over to Ominis, who in turn grabbed your hand and led you in.
      You spun around, taking in the details that surrounded you. Although it felt like a cellar, it felt cozy at the same time, the warm light from a nearby fireplace casted soft shadows on your face. “This place looks amazing! And you get to live here?” You breathed, walking over to paintings and artworks on the wall. Ominis smiled as he nodded while Sebastian began to walk to a couch. “Yep, coziest place in the castle, if you ask me.” He said as he plopped himself on the cushions. Ominis walked over to you, grabbing your sleeve and leading you to another part of the room. “Have a look at this.” He said, bringing you up to the window of water. You gasped, watching as fish swam by, the lake just on the other side of the thick glass. Ominis sat down in one of the many seats beside the glass, often used to observe the life of the lake. You followed and sat beside him, still watching the water as the life inside buzzed about. “This is amazing!” You breathed, a large smile growing on your lips. Ominis smiled in return, listening to the soft gasps of amazement you let out each time a fish swam close to the glass. You turned to him; eyes wide as you thought about earlier.
      “Can you see the squid from in here?” You asked, almost in a whisper. Ominis nodded and smiled as he gestured to the glass. “I remembered Sebastian mentioning it, so I wanted to sneak you in so you could see it. It usually passes around this time, actually.” You smiled as you wrapped your arms around Ominis’ neck, a string of thanks leaving your lips as you held him tightly. Ominis was caught off guard, but quickly wrapped his arms around you in response, smiling as he pressed his face into the crook of your neck. Sebastian smiled as he watched, glancing over to the lake as a tentacle rose up. “There it is, y/n! Look!” He shouted, pointing at the glass. You released Ominis and quickly made your way to the glass window, watching in awe as the squid slowly rose in the water.
      “Ominis, come here!” You shouted, grabbing for his hand as you brought him over. Ominis looked at you confused, unable to see what you were seeing. “It’s giant! Bound to be at least two meters! And the books were all right, it’s just different colours!” You described the squid to Ominis, who began to form a picture of it in his head as you continued. “It’s a mix of colours, it’s kind of red, maybe pink? But it has spots where it’s white, and its arms are different colours too!” The squid continued to swim around, its long arms propelling it around as it seemingly performed for you. “I can see its beak too! It looks the size of Sebastian’s head.” “Are you saying I have a big head?”  Ominis chuckled as the image grew clearer as you spoke. You watched as the squid turned, showing off one of its eyes. You gasped, watching as it flickered from yellow to a pale green, one that matched Ominis’ eyes. “Ominis! It just copied your eye colour! That’s amazing!” You grabbed his hand in excitement, watching as the squid placed a tentacle to the glass, its suckers pressed against the glass, almost demonstrating to you.
      Ominis felt his face heat up as you squeezed his hand, excitement lacing your voice as you began to recall information from one of the books you had read. “Apparently, it’s sort of…domesticated. Like it was a pet a long time ago. One of the authors said they fell of a boat in the lake once, and that the squid pushed them back to the surface and to the boat, like it was helping them.” Ominis nodded, listening to every word you spoke. Sebastian had retreated back to the couch after you had made fun of his head, having seen the squid multiple times since he was sorted into Slytherin.
      You watched the squid for a few more minutes, until it slowly swam away in search of food. You yawned, leaning your head onto Ominis’ shoulder for support. “I’ll walk you back to your common room, so you don’t fall asleep on the way there.” He offered, and you nodded, making your way back to the door, waving to Sebastian. The two of you walked down the halls, silent yawns escaping your lips every now and then. “I apologize for keeping you up so late,” Ominis said, breaking the silence. You shook your head as you smiled, grabbing his hand and giving it a gentle squeeze. “It’s all right. You let me see the giant squid, and I loved it.” You had made it to the staircase leading up to your common room, and you picked up your robes from the ground. You changed into them and offered the Slytherin robe back to Ominis, who shook his head. “I have other robes; you should keep it in case I sneak you in again.” You smiled as your cheeks heated up, letting out a soft thank you.
      The two of you stood there in silence for a moment, unable to turn and walk away from each other. You looked down at your feet as you thought back to the squid, thinking about how you may have never seen it if it wasn’t for Ominis. Quickly, you looked back up at him, placing a hand on his shoulder. Ominis’ brows furrowed in confusion at the sudden touch, but quickly replaced it with shock as you softly pressed your lips to his cheek. You smiled against his skin as you whispered a final “thank you,” before pulling away. You watched in amusement as he was left speechless, fiddling with his sleeve as he tried to find the words to say. “Again, some time.” He muttered, and you smiled, leaning over, and placing another kiss on his cheek before heading up the steps. “Some time soon, I hope.”

Hogwarts Legacy Modern AU (for @weirdraccoon )
MC: OMINIS!
Ominis: Good lord, must you shout like- why is there something talking in your bag?
MC: You have to help him! I found him in the Forbidden Forest. He’s injured and I have no idea if he understood me, but I said “hang on little buddy, I know someone who can help!”
Ominis: unzip your bag, you’re not giving him any air.
MC: I didn’t want him to escape! Also he’s kind of bitey.
Ominis: Of course he tried to bite you, a strange woman shoved him in a backpack! -kneels beside the bag and speaks in parseltongue- You’re alright, we’re here to help you
Snake: WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON?
Ominis: You’re alright, she brought you here to help you. What’s wrong?
Snake: A unicorn stepped on me. And then a human shoved me in a bag.
Ominis: I’m going to let you out, please don’t bite. We want to help you. Will you let us help you?
Snake: You, not the grabby one.
MC: Would you like to include me in this conversation?
Ominis: He was stepped on by a unicorn and then a grabby human shoved him in a bag. He doesn’t want you to help him.
MC: Rude.
Ominis: Alright, I’m going to unzip the bag. Crawl up my arm, I’m afraid I won’t be able to see you. I’m blind.
Snake: Humans can be blind?
Ominis: Unfortunately. You’re quite a large snake.
Snake: That’s not very polite.
Ominis: Apologies, I just was picturing a smaller snake since MC picked you up and put you in here. I figured she’d be afraid of you.
Snake: She said I was a cute little scaley baby. It was humiliating.
Ominis: Of course she did. She’s not bad, she’s very kind. She just gets carried away sometimes.
-waves wand and mutters a healing spell-
Ominis: How’s that?
Snake: You healed me! Thank you! I am in your debt.
Ominis: Don’t be silly. Would you like us to take you back?
Snake: Too dangerous. May I stay with you? I like you. You speak my language.
Ominis: Only if you promise to be kind to my friends. May MC pet you?
Snake: Ugh, fine.
Ominis: Alright, he’s healed. He wants to stay with me, so I suppose I have a pet now. He says you can pet him.
MC: OH MY GOD I LOVE HIM! Let’s go to Brood and Peck and get him some stuff! Can he wear a little bow tie? Does he have a name? Can we call him Kevin?
Ominis: You really need to calm down. I don’t know how long he’ll tolerate you.
Snake: I don’t know what a bow tie is, I don’t have a name, and I don’t want to be Kevin.
Ominis: He doesn’t like Kevin.
MC: William Snakespear? Snake Gyllenhall? David Hisselhoff?
Ominis: Did you just have a list of snake names prepared?
MC: I thought about it the whole way here.

I just had to think about how everyone would react if they saw that MC had a grim as a pet.
Sebastian would probably ask why you always do such cool things without him and Poppy would probably wonder how she feels about it xD
If only you COULD have tamed a mongrel! They're creatures too, they should have been tameable and be put in the vivariums.
My MC, Estelle, is kinda chaotic but fun, so she'd probably hoard tamed mongrels. Breed them until she's got dozens of them XD
Estelle with eight mongrels around her: Check it out! I've got a whole pack of "grims"!
The group:
Ominis: What kind of- How-? WHY?
Sebastian: How come I wasn't part of this shenanigan? I mean, this is cool, but- I thought we made a deal!
Amit: Well, they seem friendly enough!
Natty: I wonder if they would be good for tracking bad guys...
Garreth: Can I trim their fur for potion-making?
Poppy, surrounded by mongrel pups: Don't you dare, Garreth! They're too cute to be shaved!

On his way to the greenhouse, Demetrius has to make a stop by a small sleeping puddle of a teal niffler on the floor. The poor creature looks so blissfully full after lunch that the nap in the sun by the glass-stained window must seem like heaven for the little thief.
'Aren't you adorable?' chuckles Meech to himself and sits down for a minute. With a frown after some careful deliberations and a hesitant hand, he reaches out and softly pets Nosy's belly. Yes. Meech assumed as such: the niffler is in a food coma.
A few more soft pets follow before Meech gets up to go and feed his sweet sweet cabbages.
As the sunbeams streamed through the glass-stained window, Nosy basked in their warmth, his plump belly rising and falling in a contented rhythm. Oh, what a day it had been! All the treats he had acquired, the treasures he had snatched, the mischief and mayhem - it was almost a bit too much for a humble little Niffler like himself. But only almost.
The stolen goodies, which he would later share with his partner in crime, were tucked safely in his belly pocket, and slowly, like a gentle wave, exhaustion washed over him, and the little menace succumbed to the allure of a deep slumber. 
Blissfully unaware of the approach of the gentle giant, the Niffler was sleeping safe and sound, with dreams filled with flickering flames and tantalising shiny objects. A soft chuckle broke through the haze of Nosy's dreams, but he paid it no mind as he rolled himself into a tiny, snug pile of teal fur, seeking even greater comfort.
The gentle touch on his belly startled him momentarily, but the sensation was so soothing that he couldn't resist purring softly in his sleep. The Gryffindor's presence was but a fleeting interruption in his dream world, quickly forgotten as he surrendered once more to the enchanting allure of sleep.

Pets in Mahoutokoro
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Worldwide, cats are the creatures most commonly associated with magic or the supernatural. And they were also in Japanese culture because of its many of their characteristics. Examples include bakeneko, maneki-neko and nekomata.
Raccoon Dogs are considered as forest spirit that has the ability to shape shift to fool people. Depending on the legends and regions, it was considered benevolent or hostile, but the truth is that they're more of an unclever and humorous prankster and trickster.
Foxes also are associated with shape shifting. They're closely associated with the Shinto god Inari, and serve as its messengers. The difference with the raccoon dogs is that foxes are associated with sharper intelligence and either a dignified or malicious intent behind its usual trickery, even though they're portrayed as faithful guardians, friends, and lovers.
Crows, often depicted as a clever and mischievous trickster figure in Japanese folklore, known for its intelligence and ability to outsmart humans and other animals, are also considered one of the messengers of the gods with it's ability to communicate with the gods and act as intermediaries between humans and the divine. It is associated with Raijin, the god of thunder and lightning.

No because can someone explain to me why I just saw someone say that Gryffindor is the “house of the teacher’s pets”? Four of the most famous Gryffindor students made a map in which you had to say ‘I solemnly swear that I am UP TO NO GOOD’ just to access it? And the Weasley twins were always causing absolute chaos? And it is referenced in Cursed Child that all six of these Gryffindor wizards canonically attempted to jump off of the Hogwarts Express?
And you think that’s the house of the teacher’s pets? Just play the game? And leave the house explanations to people that understand the Wizarding World? Because my autistic brain hurts?
This guy also went on to say that all Slytherins are evil and just want to kill people, all Ravenclaws are just pick-mes that want to be different and that all Hufflepuffs are boring and there are no famous people from this house - as if Newt Scamander isn’t RIGHT THERE?? Stop mansplaining things YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND!!

End of the Week Snippet
Working on a little something that should be posted next week, and I wanted to share a snippet. Title will be The Care and Keeping of a Pet Werewolf.
~~~
Pet. The Dark Lord brought Sirius a pet. He has no idea what that could mean. Lord Voldemort raises his hand again, indicating that Sirius should turn and he looks behind him. 
There’s a boy standing there. No, boy isn’t quite right. He must be about Sirius’s age, though it’s hard to tell with his eye swollen shut and his bruised face. He seems relatively young–unsurprisingly, if he was an Order member. They seem to only recruit young. His hair falls in soft ringlets around his ears and against his neck. He’s standing tall, despite a severe limp and the fact that he’s being dragged forward by a rope connected to the collar at his neck. 
He’s dressed in nothing more than a pair of trousers, though they’re ripped to the point of barely befitting that title. He has no shirt or shoes. His skin is deeply tanned, except where it’s cut by silvery scars. On his left side, an old bite mark from something with a massive jaw covers the lower quadrant of his abdomen. 
Sirius’s pet is a werewolf.
Sirius turns back to the Dark Lord. “You’ve gifted me a pet werewolf.” 
The amused look is back on the Dark Lord’s face. “I have, indeed. Make sure you keep him on a tight leash. I’ve heard he’s got a nasty bite.” The hall rings out in laughter at the poor attempt at a joke. 
“Thank you, my Lord. You are too generous, as always.”
