Is this what it feels like? To be loved?
mon cœur qui bat by @facewithoutheart
Summary:
All Simon wants is a safe place to sleep. His magic has other ideas.
The fic where Simon’s made of fluff but Baz is the real softie.
This fic is my absolute favorite comfort read. If you haven’t read it, I highly recommend checking it out! Or giving it a reread!
I based this off Le Lit by Toulouse Lautrec, which is in my opinion one of the comfiest bed scenes in art history

Happy (belated) birthday to the boy 🫶
(Lil ficlet under the cut)
SIMON
We’re on the train, headed to Baz’s parents new house. It’s in some place I’ve never been before, but that’s ok because Baz took care of the tickets (I did offer to fly us, but again, I don’t know the way) (it’s also a bit away and neither of us were sure I’d be able to carry myself and a grown vampire for that whole flight)
He’s had a long day; he’s got this posh office job now which he wanted very badly, but the hours are horrendous.
As usual with Baz, this change in lifestyle has brought with it changes to his wardrobe: he wears loungewear now, as soon as he gets home. After particularly awful days he won’t even have the strength to change into them himself; he’ll step through the door and spell his office ones off and the cozy ones on. They complement his sharpness nicely; makes him more tangible, more like something within reach, that I’m allowed —encouraged, even— to grab a hold of and not let go.
Our luggage is stuffed beneath my seat, and my heels keep bumping into the side of it when I shift. We’ve only brought enough for the two nights we’re staying over, but Baz has this new suit set he wants to wear for his birthday dinner tomorrow and apparently it required ‘room to breathe, Snow’.
Whatever that means.
I’m not going to complain about it, however. It looks absolutely stunning on him; he’s started leaning into the vampire look again, like in school when he slicked his hair back to show off his widows peak, and it’s working wonders now just as it did then. The suit is a sleek and slender thing, paired with a blood red shirt that somehow manages to shift in color depending on where you stand. Baz said there was something special about the fabric (“Is it magic,” I’d asked, rubbing the sleeve between my fingertips. “In a sense,” he’d said. “It’s Normal magic, the art of weaving.”)
We had a drink with Penny and Shep before we left the flat, and the alcohol burns warm in my gut still. I don’t drink much, these days. Haven’t the need to.

Happy Birthday Baz!
Since I missed the 14th, this is another good day to post my Valentine exchange card design. Behold Baz holding his favorite present:
Tumblr media
The idea came from making a fluffy counterpart to my angsty red-and-black Simon print. Our boy is getting better.

In my mind, this is Watford-Era, an alt first kiss. Interpret however you like, though. ❤️
This was created for Carry on Countdown for a few prompts! I wish I could have posted on one of these days but it takes the time it takes.

Hi @rainbowrowell
I know after CO folks would gleefully ask about how Agatha felt about Simon and Baz dating, and I really liked how it was handled in the books cause it was really realistic and respectful. So to get some revenge for my girl I want to know how Baz and Simon react to Agatha and Niamh dating?

my main takeaway from the Simon Snow series
You Are Not Broken.
Simon grew up in care with no one that really cared about him. No one coddled him, no one fussed over him when he didn't feel well, and he felt like the most insignificant nobody in all of England.
And then this cool guy that has a sword and can do magic (whoa!) sweeps in and tells him that he's the most important and powerful somebody to ever exist and sweeps his entire world out from under him.
When we get his POVs, the mage spends the entire book telling us he has to fix Simon. That Simon is broken because he can't harness his power (which I did a tiny essay on here if you're interested). That Simon is so broken and shattered that he is unfixable.
From a boy with nothing to "Let the greatest power of powers reign, and may it save us all" and then back to a boy with nothing. His magic was what connected him to that beautiful world of worthiness and just as quickly as he was whisked into it, he was cast out. After being told by his mentor that he was unfixably broken.
That's... devastating.
and even more devastatingly, he believed it.
He believed it so much that started self-sabotaging every other good thing in his life because one horrible manipulative person told him he was broken.
and he believed it for over a year.
Which is why Simon and Baz meeting Lady Salisbury was so important.
She had a son who barely had any magic. And even though he didn't have magic, he didn't have that crucial connection to his mother's world that was coveted above everything else, she loved him anyway. She loves him so so much. and then, her son with some magic became her son with no magic at all. And she still cried with joy over his return when he came back to her.
Because love doesn't care about a silly thing like magic. Love is the greater magic, and it always is, and always will be.
He didn't have any magic to give, because he gave it all away. But he had love. He has more love in him than any other character in that series, except for maybe Ruth. He loves his school. He loves his friends. He loves his world of mages, even if it hurts too much to be a big part of it. He loves his mentor, and the silly goats that everyone overlooked, and even his evil, scorned roommate. Maybe the scorned roommate most of all. Simon never had a shortage of love to give.
And meeting Ruth and his real family was finally able to prove to him that the love he held close and carried around his whole life was finally enough. Better yet, it had always been enough, even though he was the last to see it.
Your love is enough. The love and goodness you put out into this world is enough. And you are worthy of love in return. Always. No exceptions. You are not broken. You are human, and humans are immovable and unshatterable. Your love is your magic, and you are worthy.
This post is for you. Never let them tell you you're not magic.

My mom made me Simon and Baz amigurumis!

Look how cute they are!!!! She is truly a crocheting wizard 💜
I’m still deciding on if I’ll sew on some moles for Simon with embroidery thread, but we’ll see
I helped to make the spade for Simon’s tail and I also shaved down an old and broken bone crochet hook of my mom’s to make Baz’s little wand
I also made scones yesterday and took some pictures with them. Very excited to make more little scenes for them! If y’all have any requests, pop them in the comments!

“This is what I deserve,” he says.
I shake my head. “Well, it isn’t what I deserve.”
