I’m a total sucker for fics where Harry is dark and gets sorted into Slytherin, but I’m also really disappointed with how Ron and Hermione are treated in them

So: dark au where the trio is sorted into Slytherin

Hermione, who wants to use knowledge to change the world

Ron, who wants to finally be free of his family’s shadow

Harry, who wants to be great, to be admired, to be free

The teachers adore quick, clever Granger, but Severus worries when he sees the way she eyes the restricted section, how her mind is filled with deadly recipes and the ways to use them

The purebloods learn not to badmouth the halfbloods, not to bully the muggleborns, because Hermione knows forbidden magic, Hermione knows the untraceable poisons and the painful curses-and Hermione knows how to avoid being caught

No one outside of Slytherin pays attention to Ronald Weasley, so quiet compared to his brothers, and that’s a mistake

Ron casts his first dark spell and the power takes his breath away, Ron sinks into the comfort of blood rituals and makes outlawed sacrifices to forgotten gods

Ron wonders how his family could abandon this happiness in favor of a flickering light

Harry, the chosen one, the special one, the abandoned one

Harry looks at the light, looks at the people that did nothing for him, and dives into the dark

Lockhart dies drinking poison, Snape finds the trio huddled around Peter’s body, the aurors that find Umbridge’s remains vomit, and the Wizarding World doesn’t notice

Voldemort rises and does not face an old man and a group of do gooders

Voldemort rises and faces a witch with a brilliant mind and no taste for mercy, a wizard that delights in bloodshed and manipulates people like he moves chess pieces, and the broken, bloody boy that’s won their loyalty

Voldemort falls

Since everyone is sending asks haha 😁 What are your favorite fairytale-esque gowns? Please and thank you!

I’m sorry for taking so long to answer this...I had such a difficult time narrowing this down. I might even do a separate post for more dresses because I love dresses that can be used for fairy tales. I tried to go for extravagant pieces, but Pamella Roland has a modern day Belle dress that I’ve loved so I had to include it. For me, Malyarova Olga is the queen of fairy tale gowns. I try to limit the number of dresses for a designer on a list since I only have ten slots, but I couldn’t help it...she has three here.  And many more that didn’t make the cut. And I know I use Paolo Sebastian in just about every answer I give, so I limited myself to just one of his creations, even though he does great fairy tale gowns.

Okay, muggleborn headcannons are adorable. But can we take a moment to appreciate their poor parents?

Desperately trying to find a book about how to raise your kid who is all of a sudden a witch/wizard.

Trying to explain to the neighbors why your kid suddenly has an owl/toad for a pet and spends an excessive amount of time polishing that ancient broom out on the back porch.

Debating if it’s better to try and wash robes in the sink or just risk taking them to the laundromat.

Having to clean out their trunks when they get home from school because Merlin knows what the hell you will find in there.

Trying to keep any younger siblings from telling random strangers on the street that their big brother/sister is a wizard/witch.

Showing up to Diagon Alley for the first time and holy shit what the hell is all of this honey please make a friend with witch/wizard parents so they can tell us what to do.

Galleons? Knuts?

WHY IS YOUR TEXTBOOK TRYING TO ATTACK ME?!

Trying to explain to grandparents/aunts/uncles/cousins why they can’t attend visitors day at the child’s new boarding school.

Having to come up with a whole new system of rules to deal with anything magical.

Standing awkwardly outside platform 9 ¾ and waiting for another wizarding family to show them what to do.

Learning that the main wizard sport, which your child is determined to participate in, involves riding around on a thin little stick a hundred or more feet in the air while moving at excessive speeds.

Getting letters from your kid after their first night demanding you come pick them up because there is no wifi and THEY SAID IF WE WENT TO THE FOURTH FLOOR WE WOULD DIE.

Seriously. Muggle Parents of Witches/Wizards are adorable. I just have this picture of them rushing out to Diagon Alley after the representative from whatever school visits them to tell them about their kid and they just buy every book they can get their hands on to figure out what the hell they’re supposed to do now.

Me, every day: Me? Romantic? Please, I’m not 12.

Me watching Pride and Prejudice (2005) mouthing along: If your feelings are still what they were last April, tell me so at once. My affections and wishes have not changed, but one word from you will silence me forever. If, however, your feelings had changed, I will have to tell you, you have bewitched me body and soul and I love…I love… I love you. I never wish to be parted from you from this day on.

one thing from tab that haunts me is the question of how celaena counted the precise minutes of angel’s departure from the red desert so she’d know to fire the arrow exactly one minute late. it’s not like she had a fucking stopwatch did she count every second of twenty one minutes in her head with perfect accuracy?
