5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?
Fanfic.net dosnt let me reply any more??? but I do try to. even if its just a key smash and a thankyou. or if its an emoji spam i emoji spam back. I love those.
6. What's the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
Hm. The closest ones I could think of are Death's acquaintance and In grief we bake. I don't tend to do agnsty endings. even the sad ish ones are kind hopeful.
EDIT: JABBERYJAYED! I forgot!? litreally a hunger games fic ends up in devistation?? fool.
7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
I couldnt narrow it down so top 2: I saw 7 Dogs and Christmas Cards
8. Do you get hate on fics?
Onlya few times in the past. two of those times were Worst witch ship trolls and just deleted them. one was my fault, i got uppity with an 'UPDATE NOW' comment and user just went a few my other fics being rude. againn deleted.

Corpse Bride (2005). a sad little fic for a le sad victor van dort.

Pippa: Do you ever just see something that changes your life and you're just...huh?
Hecate: I saw you.
Pippa: Honestly, that's so gay and sweet, and it really makes this awkward, because I was gonna show you this drawing of Dimity as a turkey.

As someone who has adored witchcraft centred shows since childhood, the idea of Zelda moving away from worshipping Lilith to worshipping Hecate gave me a mini heart attack

About Severus's Friendship With The Malfoys...:
Would Snape still be friends with them had he lived after the Second Wizarding War? I'm trying to do a fic series where Snape is (magically) brought back to life and reunites with Constance Hardbroom (of the 1998 "Worst Witch") and their long-lost son, Nick Hobbes (of "Weirdsister College") in 2006. Snape and Hardbroom would remarry and have a daughter, Morrigan, in 2009.
With this in mind, how would Constance and Nick view the Malfoys. Constance does think highly of the rich, judging by the Hallows. Yet, it's doubtful that she wouldn't be very thrilled with Lucius or Narcissa (ESPECIALLY when hearing about Cedric Diggory and Charity Burbage). Though I'm not sure how she'd feel about Draco, Astoria and Scorpius. So it's uncertain on whether of not Constance would let Nick or Morrigan anywhere near such a family. No matter how much Severus would try to defend them. Not to mention, Constance would've probably put some blame on Lucius for Severus getting in with the Death-Eaters in the first place.
What also wouldn't help was that, (in my fics), the Rowling Wizards and the Murphy Wizards are of different magical "breeds". The Rowling Wizards are known as the eccentric, powerful and progressive "Imperiums" (or "Barmies") while the Murphy Wizards are the traditional, limited, Muggle-like "Ex-Codices" (or "Killjoys" or even "Faux-blood"). If anything Lucius (and maybe Narcissa) wouldn't think to highly of the "Faux-blood" Constance. The Malfoys would even look down on the wealthy Hallows for it too.
Then there's Nick; knowing him, I doubt he'd be so anamored (if that's the right word) with any of the Malfoys. He didn't even care much for the rich girl, Ethel Hallow. Not even asking her if she can use her wealth/connections to help with his endeavors. With Draco being Ethel's male counterpart, Nick would be annoyed with him, if not more. Then again, since this is post-"Deathly Hallows", Draco would've mellowed out a bit (especially with Astoria and their son). So, maybe Nick would, at least try to get along with Draco and maybe Narcissa. As for Lucius, I can't help but see Nick punch him after an insult too far about Constance, his Ex-Codice upbringing or his friends. Either way, Arthur Weasley would be proud.
Still, what are your thoughts? Would Severus still try to reconcile with the Malfoys? Would Constance and/or Nick stop him? Or would Severus only stay in touch with Draco and Astoria? Would there still be some emotional distance?

This weekend, I watched The Worst Witch, a 1986 made-for-TV film about a British boarding school for witches. I loved the movie overall, but one top tier treat in it was Tim Curry's musical number, "Anything Can Happen On Halloween."

I recently watched The Worst Witch, a 1986 UK made-for-television movie about a boarding school for witches.
This is what I wrote about it on Letterboxd:
It’s so lovely to see a witch boarding school story from before Harry Potter so that it’s clear of its influences. I thought this was an incredible joy; I wish it had been developed into a hundred-episode TV dramedy.
Realistically, the only link between this text and Showa era magical girl stories is the witch trope. I probably could’ve posted this on my other tumblr as a result, but I’m happy putting it right here.

Halloween for Witches is a serious spiritual occasion. Halloween for Monsters is something of a national holiday and family time. Halloween for the ‘normal’ common people is one night of shop brought tat. Halloween for Mildred, the ONLY Human Witch at Miss Cackle’s International Academy for young ladies and Witches, is a Monster Mash of all three. A Worst Witch, Monsterous Misadventures 'verse Halloween Story
