Rivers and Roads Sneak Peak - Chapter 20

Just had to share this snippet of Rivers and Roads (my massive Hogwarts Legacy rewrite) because it made me giggle. Chapters 1 - 16 are currently up on AO3 if you'd like to read the rest, and I should have the next two chapters up in the next couple of days, once I have the energy to proofread them.

“They’re in the other greenhouse. It’s just at the end of the footbridge leading out of this room. Your classmate, Mister Prewett, has kindly offered to accompany you,” Professor Garlick motioned up the stairs where Leander was waiting. “Come back and see me when you’re finished. Oh, and – mind your fingers, they do bite.”

“Wait,” Melody tried to protest but it was too late, Professor Garlick had walked away and was talking to a Hufflepuff girl.

Melody looked up at where Leander was waiting for her with a smug look on his face. She crossed her arms, annoyed that he was going to be her guide. Before she could walk away she felt two hands on her shoulders and Sebastian pulled her back into his chest, “Good luck with this one, darling. I won’t be there to help you this time.”

“I don’t need your help, thank you very much,” Melody frowned at him before going to meet Leander.

The Gryffindor smiled at Melody as she approached him, but she did not return the favour, “Come now, Melody, this will be fun.”

“You and I have two different ideas of fun,” Melody told him.

“Up these stairs will take us to the Chinese Chomping Cabbages,” Leander motioned up the stairs, completely ignoring Melody’s comment, “Your lead.”

“What an excellent guide you are, Leander,” Melody scoffed as she led her housemate up the stairs, “What do I need you for anyway?”

“Protection,” Leander said smugly as they crossed the walkway above the greenhouse and headed towards the other greenhouse, “In case you can’t handle the cabbages.”

“Do you think I need your protection?” Melody laughed, “I did beat Sebastian in a duel.”

Leander frowned at the comment, “I would have put Sebastian in his place myself. I mean, I would’ve, if Hecat hadn’t stopped me.”

“You mean stopped the dragon skull from crushing you?” Melody rolled her eyes, which Leander couldn’t see since she was walking ahead of him.

“Typical Slytherin trick, dropping a dragon skull on someone during a fight. We Gryffindors fight with honour,” Leander suddenly grabbed Melody’s hand and pulled her to face him, “But you know that, don’t you, Melody?”

“Honour,” Melody laughed, trying to hide how uncomfortable she was with how close Leander was to her, “Whatever helps you sleep at night, Leander.”

“I sleep like a baby, just right across the common room from you,” Leander laughed, “We are Gryffindors, Melody, you and I have more in common than you and that Slytherin ever will.”

Melody shoved Leander away from her, “I am nothing like you.”

Without another word Melody turned and stomped away from Leander, trying to keep her cool so she didn’t end up in detention. She descended the stairs that led into the other greenhouse, where she spotted some yellow and orange cabbages that had huge mouths in the middle, with massive, sharp teeth. 

“Those are the cabbages,” Leander said dryly, he had lost all interest in continuing to talk to his housemate.

“I guessed,” Melody snapped, she wondered if she threw one of them at him which parts it would bite first.

bye i just wrote this line in Rivers and Roads

Melody was practically begging, and Sebastian was never going to say no to a girl that desperate.

but this fic is 100% fluff because fifth year so why did i write it like that

#please #i wanna write smut #but im so bad at smut #and also im too deep in rivers and roads rn #i cant write anything else atm #so im going to read smut instead

[fablefics]

hey beautiful people, sorry for my sudden disappearance from this blog (I've been active on my main @fableblogs) I moved a couple weeks ago and finally got settled into my new place and got my PC set up.

I'm still working on Rivers and Roads so keep an eye out for updates on that over at AO3

#im back #thank you for continuing to support my writing in my absence

[fablefics]

Hey did you know that the first ten chapters of Rivers and Roads are up on Ao3? Well they are :)

This fic is my magnum opus, the mad ramblings of an autistic loser who just wanted more relationship development in HL and I'm honestly very proud of it so far

#rivers and roads fablefics #hogwarts legacy #hogwarts legacy fanfiction #listen im just saying there is PINING #and sassy omi #it is actually starting to get good

[fablefics]

I love Ominis girlies but I simply am not one of you

[fablefics]

y'all i fucking wrote in a piece of dialogue where Melody mentions her parents 'didn't die in a tragic accident or anything' while talking to Seb and i didn't even realize what i did until i was proofreading im the worst

#i kept it in #chapter nine coming tomorrow or saturday #fablefics

[fablefics]

chapter seven of Rivers and Roads is up

I have to work all day tomorrow but I should have chapter eight posted on Monday <3 sorry for the delay

#rivers and roads fablefics

[fablefics]

yall i quite literally do not have the brain power to write one shots rn so if you've sent me a request and i haven't written it i am terribly sorry

#no thoughts just rivers and roads #im a shit fanfic writer #i love yall for sending me requests #but i simply am the worst

[fablefics]

I just got to the first class (charms for Melody's playthrough) and I am almost 18,000 words into the fic, nobody is going to read this shitshow but I am so committed to it.

#why did i think this was a good idea #i mean i knew i was going to write it no matter what #but why would anyone read this

[fablefics]

Well, the first six chapters of Rivers and Roads are posted to Ao3

I won't be posting it here because it is going to be painfully long, and you will understand why if you go read the summary.

#it is time #fablefics #rivers and roads fablefics #hogwarts legacy #hogwarts legacy fanfiction #sebastian sallow #garreth weasley #ominis gaunt #natsai onai #poppy sweeting

[fablefics]

here's your hint at my next big fic, some dialogue.

Melody turned to face the men again, she could tell that this was a sore spot for Professor Fig. His eyes darkened as he leaned in towards George, “Miriam? How?”

George sighed sadly, “She wrote to me about Ranrok before she died – wondering what the Ministry knew about his activities. Before I could respond, I received this. It was the last thing she sent me, Eleazar.”

if you're thinking "i have an idea about what this fic is but it sounds like something only an idiot would do", you are correct and i am that idiot.

#when i tell you #that i am going to sacrifice my entire social life for this fic #i am not joking #i will finish it #because the autism demon says so

[fablefics]

For one shots I don’t mind the perspective but with longer stories I prefer third person!

that is kind of what i was thinking so i am probably going to write it in the third person. thanks for helping me make a decision lol im so happy tumblr has polls now
