not the only one awake
Pairing: Han Solo x reader
summary: ever since meeting han solo, things have been a little icy between you two. now stuck at the rebel base on hoth, you both take a chance on how you feel. 
warnings: none; maybe a little ooc!han but it’s been a while since i’ve watched star wars in my defense 
also this feels like it might need a part 2 so let me know if that’s smth you’d be interested in
word count: 2.2k 
suggested listening: ‘take a chance on me’ from ‘mamma mia’ 
You clambered into the Hoth bunker, parka restricting your movements and goggles fogging up with the sudden temperature change. Leia walked up to you and unzipped your outer layer, shrugging it off your shoulders for you. Finally able to completely move your arms again, you began fiddling with the gloves on your hands, then goggles that still covered your eyes. Sweat started gathering at the base of your back, and you were beginning to feel it. You overhead the announcement system remind everyone that the briefing was starting soon, but all you craved was a hot shower and sleep.
"Leia I swear, they're gonna have to stop sending me out there if they want me to still have use of my hands in a week," you said in a rush, quick to get your stiff face moving. You shook out your hair, willing the remaining snow out of it.
You watched as she set your coat down on a nearby chair and returned to you with a hot beverage in hand. "You know they send you out there because you keep accepting the job. If you start telling them no, they'll find someone else to do it."
"Funny. I should start getting Luke to go out there. Better yet, I'd pay serious money to see Han out there." You accepted the hot tea, fingers curling around the thermos, warmth seeping through your grateful skin.
As you stood with Leia, you watched the various rebel leaders bustling around you two. From above you, you heard metal clanging, followed shortly by cursing. You looked to the Millennium Falcon sitting on the floor and watched as Han popped his head out, yelling at Chewbacca sitting perched atop the ship. "Chewie, wrong lever!"
Chewie growled back in response, to which you and Leia giggled like schoolgirls. "It's a wonder those two haven't killed each other yet," she said.
"Listen, I have a soft spot for the Wookie. Han, on the other hand, well, that's up in the air," you replied, sipping your drink.
Leia’s narrowed eyes and wrinkled nose gave her away, she saw right through you. And you couldn’t even play it off like you didn’t like Han either, since you had told her about your small crush a few weeks back. But it had been quick when you told her and you weren’t even sure if you meant it at the time, but through Leia’s poking and prods about Han since then, you knew she hadn’t forgotten. 
“Ladies!” Han strolled up from the Falcon, running a rag over his hands, an eyebrow cocked. “So, sweetheart.” And for a moment you think he’s talking to Leia, but then he turns to you. How much would it take to get you to come work on the Falcon with me before Chewie up there electrocutes me?” 
You snorted. “You must be desperate then. Because if I remember correctly, I actually did electrocute you once.” It had been in the beginning of your journey on the Falcon and Han called you in for some reinforcements for fixing up the Falcon. Unfortunately, a mechanic you were not, as you managed to shock Han so much that you could’ve sworn his hair stood up on end for the rest of the day. And Chewie let you win a game of his after that, because in between moves, he roared with laughter at the sight of Han’s hair.
‘Well that’s the funny thing. I want the ship fixed but I’m convinced Chewie will kill me before she gets flying again,” Han said, gray eyes skimming over you. 
You looked between him and Leia, and when you looked back to him, his eyes were still on you, like Leia wasn’t even standing next to you. “ A tragedy, honestly,” you joked. fidgeting with your hands. “But unfortunately, we have a briefing to get to.” 
You dragged Leia off, to a conference room with maps of the galaxy tacked to the wall. As you walked and glanced over the file someone handed you, you tried to calm your racing thoughts, thoughts of Han’s offer to fix the Falcon, and you hoped, Han’s offer to spend some uninterrupted time together. Now, you couldn’t focus, plans blurring in with thoughts of some witty comeback you should’ve given Han. But, as the fighters settled around you, you remembered you were past due for a brief on the new Resistance plan, but talks of the fighting had been exhausting as of late, and you were doing anything you could to get out of it. Leia pulled a chair out for you, urging you to sit, to which you gratefully obliged while she disappeared into the crowd. You glanced around, your gaze landing on Luke and Han, who looked at home amongst the fighter pilots. You weren't sure when Han managed to slip in behind you, though. Luke's eyes landed on you, and he gave you a tentative wave, looking to break from the talks. You raised your thermos to him, wanting nothing more than to have a familiar face nearby.
"You look exhausted," you heard from behind you, your eyes trained on your mug.
"Ever the charmer Luke Skywalker," you quipped.
"And you're ever so sweet. I'm glad you could finally make it to one of these things. You've managed to skate them for weeks now." Luke took the seat next to you, propping his right foot across his left knee.  
You eyed him across the rim of your mug. "You know I don't like the cold, so why do you think I've been taking the scouting jobs?"
"Go help Han on the Falcon then. Goodness knows he needs all the help he can get on it, and maybe a break from Chewie. I'm sure he could use the company. I’m sure he wouldn’t mind your company," Luke said, nudging your elbow with his, while your cheeks flushed hot. He reached for a file on the table in front of him, thumbing through the material. "But the brief's about to start, so you're stuck here now."
You groaned, leaning your head back onto your chair. The cup rested on the table in front of you while Leia spoke about what rebel intelligence had been coming in. You periodically shifted around in your chair, fighting sleep as hard as you could, fighting glancing at Han too. After what seemed like ages, the commanders finally dismissed you and, you made a beeline for your quarters and arguably the hottest shower you have ever taken.
Hours later, when you could hear a pin drop in the compound, you lay awake, sheets tangled around your waist and chest heaving. You gazed up at the low ceiling, bleary-eyed and panicking. While you calmed your breathing, you pondered going on a walk to clear your head. After the nightmare you had, one involving some close calls with TIE Fighters, you knew it would take a miracle for you to go back to sleep. Thankfully you knew the scenario ended well, with some great shooting from an enthusiastic Luke and clever maneuvering from Han, but it didn’t stop you from seeing how close they really came to capturing the Falcon. You sat up slowly, eyes adjusted to the dark, and spotted your boots and a thick jacket. Donning both, you crept out of your quarters and to the main hall, where everyone would gather in a few hours for another day of grueling work.
Your eye drew to the Falcon, the hunk of metal that brought you, Leia, and Luke here in the first place. As you walked around the Falcon, your hand grazed cold metal, and you reminisced on your journey to Hoth. Cramped quarters made for a strange living arrangement, but bunking with Leia had been a blast. Flying with Han wouldn't have been a problem, save for your crush on him. Having been with the crew since Leia's rescue, the group of you had grown close, albeit some of you more than others. While you looked for excuses to be around Han, offering to fix the Falcon, cooking meals for everyone, his focus seemed trained on someone else - Leia. You had nothing against her, and in fact, having another woman comforted you. She knew what you were thinking more often than the men did, and she understood the experience of being a woman in the resistance. She was the first to ask how a mission went, and helped you crack jokes in briefings to pass the time. Few appeared to take her seriously, but she had a way of speaking that turned every head. Her presence commanded everyone's attention.
Unfortunately, this left you in her wake. Not that you minded per se, preferring to stay on the outskirts of the leadership, wanting to be in the field instead of making battle plans. This, however, appeared to put you in the background for Han as well. You didn't blame him. You understood how he could be drawn to her smile, to her personality, her charm. The problem was with the fact that you saw him. You saw his resourcefulness, his biting wit, his ability to make most people feel at ease. While you pride yourself on not caring about looks, you always noticed how his brow furrowed when evading Imperial fighters, how his tough hands worked with tools and held yours sometimes. The hand holding was accidental because while you were a skilled scout, a mechanic you were not. Thankfully, though, Han never seemed to mind and often tried to thank you for at least trying to help, scolding you much more gently than he did Chewie. 
The sound of approaching footsteps pulled you from your thoughts. Thankfully, the black boots were familiar. "Solo."
"Good to see I'm not the only one awake," he replied. He appeared around the corner and stepped up to stand on the Falcon's platform, eyes looking you over.
You squirmed slightly under his gaze, wrapping your arms around yourself. "A comfort, I'm sure." Keeping your gaze on his boots, you rocked on your heels.
Han sat down on the cold metal platform, patting the spot next to him. He had always been good at reading you, with a penchant for knowing when you needed to talk to someone, even when he wasn’t the best with words. "Credit for your thoughts?"
You peeled your gaze from the floor. Paused for a moment, you collected your thoughts and willed that your tongue wouldn't get caught in knots. In silence, you walked over and sat next to him. When you regained some courage, you spoke, "Okay. Han, why are you still here? I thought you still weren't sure about working for the resistance."
He looked taken aback, eyes searching your face for anything that could have prompted your question. As far as he knew, Han made it clear that he was sticking around. Han fiddled with his fingers, brow pulled together while he tried to formulate an answer. How could he sit here with you after that and not admit that he stuck around for you? Since you joined him on the Falcon, he felt like he had an equal. Leia was great to have around, but you. God, you. You could find a witty reply to everything he said. You could talk your way out of any situation you found yourself in, and it certainly helped because Han didn't have that ability on his own. Working for the rebellion was tough on everyone, and he wanted to tell you that he loved having you around on bad days. You always knew how to make everyone feel better, and he began to feel safe around you as a result. Yet, as he looked at you, tucked into yourself, the words wouldn't come.
"I thought everyone just knew I decided to stick around," he said.
As your eyes met his, you could've sworn you saw the hurt in them, but if you did, it was gone as fast as it had appeared. You had to admit you noticed him participating more in missions, wanting to become more involved. You've caught him deep in conversation with generals, other pilots, and the like. But the question was loaded, and you knew that as soon as you had asked it. And his answer wasn't the one you were looking for.
"Did you decide to stay for the resistance? Or did you stay for someone," you paused. The last thing you wanted to do was throw your friend under the bus, and you didn't want to lose Han either. But you needed clarity and needed to be able to sleep again. "For Leia, maybe?"
Han looked at you, incredulous. Surprise wrote itself all over his face. "What makes you think I've stayed for Leia?"
You took a shaky breath in, tightening your fingers around one another. "I see how you are with her. I see how everyone is with her. They all like her so much, and I'd be surprised if you didn't either."
"What if I told you I did stay for someone, but it wasn't her?"
Now it was your turn to be surprised. It had never occurred to you that anyone could've stood out to him. Leia was the obvious choice, and there weren't many other women around, even including you. Everyone just seemed to fade into the background. "Okay. Do I get to know who?"
“Well,” he began, “It’s you. But you didn’t hear it from me.”

Please please can we get a fic where Sirius is just like fuck it and he ends up marrying a muggle girl? Like he doesn't give up magic but hes just done with magic people and hes very happy with his sweet wife :D
Easy Sundays
warnings: none; implied female reader I suppose
suggested listening: 'at last' by etta james
A/N: I modified this one a little bit bc I couldn't come up with a feasible way to balance magic with Muggle, given how strict the Wizarding World is about Muggles finding out they exist. So there's that. And this is purely a comfort-fic type deal and it's my first time writing like this. But otherwise, I hope y'all enjoy !
-
Sirius doesn't wake with a start. It takes him a moment to remember where he is, but he doesn't wake in a panic, with his breath caught in a tightened chest. He wakes softly, the last tendrils of sleep slipping from his mind, gently coaxing him into the real world. When he remembers where he is, the room comes quickly into focus - the white curtains billowing in the morning's gentle breeze, the white bedsheets tangled around him, and the woman still sleeping soundly next to him.
She's something of a woman, an older 21 to his fresher 21, but he knows she seems older than she is. She finds him at a new 18, post-Hogwarts, when he's searching for purpose, for meaning, and for something to do after all his schooling. It's a chance encounter at a pub, a great conversation later, and he's smitten. But he remembers his background, the family he comes from, and almost ditches her when he goes to meet her for lunch the next day. But he doesn't. He meets her, and sees that in her carefree laugh, sharp wit, and shining eyes, is someone he can be with a little more permanently.
It takes her a while to come around though. She sees the careful choice of words on some subjects and the reckless abandon with which he talks about others. Even though she meets him at a bar, she watches him shy away when the crowd starts getting too loud. She's careful when she asks him out, not knowing how to form the words on her tongue, and apologizing when they come stumbling out, tripping over themselves. But she does anyways. And he knows she's nervous, so he agrees to go out with her.
Over their early time together, he performs a balancing act - willing to keep the magic part of him from the non-magic part of her. When she teaches him small things, like making tea or cooking, he realizes that these apparently mundane moments are memories he can make with her. Magic became the easy way out and he hangs it up not long after.
He looks at her again, sees her 21 this time. He thinks 'Muggle' as a term of endearment, not with the sneer his family gives the word. But he can't use that word, not for her, she doesn't know what it means. So he corrects 'Muggle' to 'Woman'. Sirius's tired eyes graze over the gentle curve of her face and land on the left hand curled tight on the pillow in front of her. It is a small glimmer there, a dance of light in the Sunday morning glow. It is here where he further corrects 'Woman' to "Wife'.
He pauses for a moment, and in the silence, he can almost hear her ringing voice calling, "Husband!", like she calls him when he comes home from work. He smiles, the curves of his lips stretching up his face, sleep fading even further from his mind. He wants to spend the day wrapped up with her, listening to her pleading with him not to get out of bed just yet because he's still warm, watching whatever bad movies they can find to watch. But he made a promise to Lily and James to go see them, and despite having given up magic, it doesn't mean that Sirius gave up his lifelong friends.
She knows these friends of his, he's told her about them. So he knows he told her about going to meet them early this morning, so as much as he wants to stay with her, he couldn't. Nonetheless, he kisses her on the forehead, careful not to disturb her. And with a whispered, "I love you," he's out the door stepping into a different life.
Sirius sits with the old gang to talk shop, reminisce over old times, of James' pining over Lily, bad pranks they pulled. Lily dotes on baby Harry and eventually passes him off to James. Remus drops by with chocolate and Peter saunters in with a joke, with a story. He feels familiarity here, like this is a place he is meant to be. His bones remember these people and the time they spent together. The hours crawl by, and soon enough, James twirls his wand between his fingers, a baby Harry in his lap.
It is here where the group diverges. Sirius knows now that he takes a road less traveled by. He hangs his wand up a few months after graduation, his old world causing him enough pain to last a lifetime. Sitting on Lily's couch, the night growing darker outside, he reaches for his teacup and catches the glint of a ring on his left hand and smiles. There is a whole other world waiting for him at home, one that wraps him in love and bathes him in a gentleness that took him years to accept. But she is waiting, he knows she is. So he finishes his tea, wipes the biscuit crumbs from his jeans, and bids everyone a farewell until next time.
He's going to her. He's going home.

your thoughts are loud
pairing: obi-wan kenobi x reader
summary: you, padme’s top advisor, can’t sleep, and neither can obi-wan. 
warnings: none
author’s note: i disappeared off the face of the planet for over a year bc i was in my first year of law school. somehow i survived and realized i needed a hobby. so i’m revisiting my writing and dumping this here. please be gentle, i haven’t seen the prequels in a while bc my friends won’t watch them with me, and i haven’t seen the show yet either. also would anyone like this to become a series? where it’s this kind of pining but with other characters in different fandoms? pls let me know bc I’d love the feedback. much love. 
suggested listening: ‘moonlight serenade’ by glenn miller 
“Your thoughts are loud.” 
You jumped at the sound of his voice, posh as ever but a little rough some sleep. “I didn’t mean to wake you. And what are you doing in my thoughts?” The question came out with a laugh, knowing Obi-Wan well enough that he wouldn’t get in your head without permission.
He looks down and chuckles softly. “You didn’t wake me. I couldn’t sleep, and I just heard them.”
“Dare I ask why you couldn’t sleep?” You slid over on the small stone bench, trying to make some room for him. 
He cocked his head slightly, pondering, almost hesitating. But he walked over to you and sat down, tugging his robes closer around him. “Anakin, mostly. Concerns for Padme, sometimes.” A whisper, “concerns for you.” 
You tried to shut your thoughts out. You couldn’t, however, helped the heat that rose to your cheeks. “Concerns about me?” 
“Yes, concerns for you,” he said. “I know how the Senators are with you.” He folded his hands in on one another in his lap. ‘And I don’t like how they are with you.” 
You sighed, finally looking at him, seeing his eyes trained downward, not chancing a look at you. “Obi-Wan, they’re Senators, it’s to be expected. Things are going sideways fast, and they’re all just doing what they can to try and manage it. And sometimes, it just happens to get let out onto others.” 
“I don’t like it when it gets let out on you. Especially because I can’t say anything to them.” 
He glanced towards you, then upward, focusing on the limited night sky above him. Somehow, you managed to look at him, though, tracing the sharp curve of his jaw, the soft structure of his cheekbone. Although your shoulders touched, you wanted to reach out and place a hand on his shoulder, on his cheek, on something. But you didn’t, and frankly you couldn’t. Even the night’s spell couldn’t make you forget his status as a Jedi Master or yours as Padme’s advisor. Your respective positions had rules, a Code that kept you from one another. But It didn’t keep the others in your charge from one another, you thought.
Padme and Anakin were careful, but you and Obi-Wan knew them better, and knew it hadn’t taken long for them to start seeing each other. In fact, on the few missions to Naboo when the Jedi visited, you often stood as cover for Anakin, ready with a plausible story for when Obi-Wan came asking. You talked Padme through the ups and downs of being with a Jedi, through the long periods of not seeing each other. And she spoke with you about Obi-Wan, not one to be lost on forlorn looks and wishful thinking. Being friends for so long gave her an insight into your thoughts, and knew how your tied your fingers together when Obi-Wan was near, how you could never look him in the eye when he looked at you with his piercing blue eyes. 
It took one look for her to read your thoughts, and it was on a night like this, when you sat out in the open with Obi-Wan, where you were grateful he didn’t read yours. Because you reached for him, a gentle hand on his arm, drawing his skyward gaze back to you, looking at you like he pulled some of the stars from of the sky with him. “But I know you would say something if you could, and that’s enough.” 
He reached for you too, a shaky hand holding your own, cerulean eyes locked with yours. “But it isn’t enough.” 
“Obi-Wan, I …” 
“It isn’t enough,” he said, grip tightening around your hand. “It isn’t enough, because I can’t tell them to leave you alone without them wondering what a Jedi wants with you. I can’t say anything because then I’ll come out sounding like Anakin and they’ll all wonder where the professional version of me went.” 
He turned to you fully, reaching for your empty hand with his remaining one. He leans in closer, and you mirror him, afraid that if you don’t, then his words will escape into thin air and it’ll be as if you never heard him. And he needs you to hear him, to understand. 
He continued, “And then they’d know that the professional version of me never exists around you. That something changes, and I don’t know how to describe it.” 
You shook out a breath, terrified of moving too suddenly. He can sense your nervousness, you know he does, when he starts circling his thumb gently across your knuckles. Your eyes dart between his eyes, looking for any sign of his confession being a joke, some cruel joke. But there’s nothing there, except the calmest gaze, the warmest shade of blue searching your eyes for a reaction. 
“Thank you,” you whispered. 
I love you, your heart screamed. 
“Obi-Wan, that means, well, more than I can put into words. But the thoughts are there,” you paused. “If you want to feel for them.” 
It’s the first time you’ve offered something like that to him, something that personal to anyone. You can see the hesitation, but it doesn’t take you long to feel him, tendrils of his Force signature wrapping around your mind. You close your eyes, not wanting to see his reaction when he reaches the part of your mind that yearns for him, that aches. He’s there for a while, strolling through, taking his time with you, and it’s in this hike through your mind, that he wishes you could see into his more. 
After a pregnant pause, he squeezes your hand, leading you out of your haze, eyes crawling back open. When he sharpens into focus, there’s a content, mischievous smile creeping up his face; his shoulders relax, and you don’t need to be Force sensitive to feel the utter relief radiating from him. You both have finally gotten a lifetime’s worth of confessions off your chest. And where it goes from here, neither of you know.  But this is different, and you aren’t afraid of finding out. 
The beginnings of dawn creep over the horizon, spilling streams of gold light onto both of you, where you both remember that other Jedi might be beginning to stir. So you stand, hands still intertwined, and you pull him up with you. 
“We have to go,” you begin. “Before someone sees.” 
He smiles, a full smile now. “Let’s get you back to bed then.”
It’s a silent walk back to your quarters in the Senate building, and Obi-Wan holds your hand the whole time, not even starting to drop it when you think someone is going to round a corner and spot you. He’s unafraid, and so are you, and it’s so unlike either of you, but in the early light, neither of you have it in your to care. When he stops at your door, you both fight smiles and whisper proper goodnights, and you force the want of him staying the rest of the night back down your throat.
When you are finally back in your quarters, as disheveled as they are, curtains still drawn tight, you will to him a promise of ‘later, you’ll find me later’. And it is a whisper, a fleeting feeling through your mind, but you know it’s him willing back, ‘I’ll always find you.’

i’m not dead and requests are open baby
hi all, meg here. i dropped off the face of the planet for effectively a year. I finished my first year of law school in may, and that was a journey. i wasn’t doing the best mentally and could barely handle school, much less a blog as well. and as much as i love writing, i simply couldn’t keep up. all that said, school is over until august. i’ve taken a much needed break from things and reevaluated some priorities of mine. 
that said, i’d like to come back to this blog and get to writing again. headcanons, ships, requests, all of it. i’m gonna spend the next week clearing out my inbox as quickly as i can without losing the quality of my work. but i have some projects saved up in my drafts that i really want to get out to you guys, and you’ll be seeing one of them later, so any criticism is welcome, esp since i’ve been out of the writing game for so long. 
my time in school has been incredibly tough, but i’ve realized that i need to make time for things other than school. and that means making time for this bc i really enjoy doing it and want to get back to it. so hopefully there’s no long farewells, just new hellos and welcomes. 
love, meg.

Ship for hp&marauders era? I’m Ravenclaw, 5’7 very thin, blonde hair above my shoulders & blue eyes. Fav subject is potions(pyro science irl). I like animals & sewing clothes. I’m calm in almost all situations & speak 5 languages. Thank you!
Hey anon ! thanks for sending in your request and thanks for being so patient while I work on it, and I hope you enjoy !
A/N: Ship requests aren't open again, I'm just kinda clearing out my inbox bc I've been out of the writing game for a while
For Harry Potter (Golden Era) - I ship you with Luna Lovegood !
y'all would have the softest relationship and no one can convince me otherwise
Luna may end up in a sticky situation, as she does sometimes, and you're there to sew her things back together
it's your calmness that really vibes together tho. Like you'll be in a situation where you could really tear someone's head off, and when you step back and choose not to, Luna is smitten
also, Luna would LOVE hearing you speak all your different languages, and def ask you to teach you a few phrases in them mostly it's just her asking you how to say "my love" or "my sweet" or any other variations of pet names bc she totally would
also imagine helping Luna through Potions with Snape omg what a treat that would be, like trying not to laugh when she asks some of her funny questions in class and gently helping each other through the steps
how lowkey and cute you guys would be honestly
For Harry Potter (Marauders Era) - I ship you with Remus Lupin !
my blog is just a simp blog for Lupin and no one should be surprised anymore but anyway
Lupin is generally pretty calm, but his friends are a little high strung and dude needs someone who's not gonna add to that stress at all, so in comes you
although it would take him a while to explain to you just how his clothes keep getting ripped, he keeps asking you to sew his things back together
and thank goodness your calm, bc once he actually does tell you about his condition, he needs you not to freak out and i don't think you would
Remus loves hearing you speak different languages, and honestly, the rest of the boys are jealous that you speak so many
teaching Remus a few curses in those languages so he can talk shit behind James and Sirius' backs :)

introducing me
hey y'all! so I've had this blog for a while now, and even though I haven't actually posted any fic yet, y'all really seem to vibe with it. so I figured I'd come reintroduce myself!
so my name is Megan, but I can go by Meg. I'm a 21 year old, first year law student. I’m a proud Ravenclaw, INFP, and in a perfect world, I’d be vibin in the Shire. outside of school, I am a practicing baby witch, w interests in tarot, oracle, and deity work (i have been known to talk to my deities in the middle of the grocery store if that tells you anything lol). I love reading, writing, and learning new things in general, like I once spent a Christmas break off from school teaching myself physics bc I wanted to learn more about space so. I dress like either a 90's mom or an teenage boy from the 80's and there's no in between. speaking of the 80's, I love 70's and 80's music and musicals. I also love the outdoors, like going on walks, hiking, and I even try to roller skate outside when I can! I'm fairly shy, but once I'm comfy around you, I won't be able to shut up and will tell you everything you wanna know about me lol. that said, if you wanna be friends, feel free to slide into my inbox :)
As much as I love writing tho, I'm never the best at keeping a consistent writing schedule and have been known to abandon drafts even when I'm nearly finished w them lol. but if you want a pretty complete list of fandoms I'm in/write for, check out the masterlist link in my bio! and if you'd like to request smth off that list, check out the request rules up there too!
one last note, everyone of every race, sexuality, gender identity, etc. is welcome on my blog, and even tho I don't imagine this will become an issue, I have no qualms about deleting hate :) but if any of you ever need a safe space, my inbox is always open.
i also wanna thank you guys for being so patient with me over these last two weeks where I haven’t posted anything lol. it has been super hectic in my home lately, so I’ve been taking some time away from the blog. but I’m ready to get back into it and can’t wait to write for you guys again! 
thanks for your time; thanks for supporting my blog and all the kind words I've gotten from you guys so far. I love all of you and bid you all a very fond farewell :)

Can i have an MCU ship plz. I’m 5”7, taurus , slytherin, i love reading, the rain and anything sage green. I love 70’s/80’s music. i love david bowie and queen. That’s literally all there is to me .
hey anon ! thanks for sending in your request !
For the MCU/Marvel - I ship you with Tony Stark !
all it really took was seeing your love for 70's/80's music
bc Tony would never date someone who didn't enjoy that stuff
I'm also convinced Tony is a Slytherin, bc as much as he cares about doing well by others, he also as a lot of ambition, so he's gonna need a partner who's gonna be able to keep up with that
and he realizes you can keep up with it when you make a correction on one of his projects and he realizes you can match him intellectually too - he's smitten after that honestly
y'all would totally jam in the living room to 80's rock, headbanging to AC/DC and then duetting Queen ballads together
in the initial stages of you two together, it would take a lot for Tony to actually slow down and take you out, bc there's always work to do and he's gotta be the one doing it
but he catches you on a break at Avengers Tower, reading, and then maybe thinks that a bookstore date is a good plan
and boi was he right, bc you spent your time in there, rambling about books and he soaked up every word. and by the time you made it back to the Tower, it started raining. he went to the kitchen for snacks and by the time he got back, he found you snuggled up on the couch, book in hand
it took a while to realize that slowing down to do things with you was never a bad thing, and frankly that he needed the break
but by god he was glad when he took it
A/N - I kept writing this out and almost wanna turn it into a fic, so is that smth y'all would be into ??

Hello! Can I get MCU, The Hobbit, and The Man From U.N.C.L.E. ship? 💚
Appearance: She/her. 179,5cm tall, rectangle body shape. Fair skin complexion with quite a few birthmarks. Dyed brown with honey-red highlights, shoulder-length, straight hair with bangs. The left eye is a mix of two colors – a smaller portion of (darker) greyish-blue and a larger portion of hazel; while the right eye is just a (lighter) greyish-blue. Heptagon face shape with two dimples on the left cheek and one on the right cheek (only visible while smiling). A gap between the upper front teeth.
Personality (good and bad traits): Ever since I was a kid, I was always quite mature for my age – I identify myself as an old soul. I come off as polite and well-mannered to strangers, yet I tend to keep it to myself by being reserved. But, that’s because I have social anxiety and I’m nervous and shy when meeting/talking to people. The only people I’m comfortable with being with my inner circle – closest friends and family. I am usually more “open” with my friends than with my family. With my friends I can be my “truest-self” – I smile more, I laugh more, I feel more accepted and understood. I am the mom and the fashionista of the group. Don’t get me wrong, I am fiercely protective of my family, especially of my mother and younger sister. But, lately, I’ve been feeling like the “black sheep” of the family, Cinderella who’s been taken advantage of. I express my affection for the people I care about in little, but practical, ways. I can be a little stiff when it comes to open, gushy displays of affection. Others turn to me for help and advice. I’m kind-hearted and generous, always ready to help a person in need. Always have been motherly towards children. Very awkward at keeping small talk (usually with people that I’m not that close with). Absolutely, hate speaking in front of a public, and if I do, because of my nervousness, I tend to mess up my words and/or I practice whatever I’m about to say in my head at first. I appreciate the simplicity and am often most comfortable when I’m not getting too much attention from the world. I am sensitive – both to criticism and to others’ feelings (I sponge up the feelings and moods of people and the environment around me). Have a hard time saying no or expressing my true thoughts, feelings. I get influenced by other people’s opinions/thoughts quite hard (I take everything to the heart), that is why I tend to keep a lot to myself (may come off as a little bit tense, secretive, mysterious). I avoid the harsh reality by daydreaming (almost every day) – imagining myself in situations far from my current circumstances. Sort of like a self-escape. I worry a lot and overthink almost everything. I am easily distracted and my attention span can be quite short. I have an internal struggle between my needs and wants. I can lack focus and be indecisive as a result – when I decide on one route, I am pulled in another direction at the same time (“But what if…”, “on the other hand...”). That is why I’m having a bit of a struggle with deciding what I want to do in the future (career-wise). I am easily overwhelmed by pressure and stress. There is a self-destructive side to me (self-critical, lack of self-confidence) that I’m working on by confronting my fears (coming out of my shell). Don’t like taking pictures, or other people taking pictures of me. I feel most content when I’ve straightened out all the details of everyday life. I have a routine, that I follow by mostly every day, and if something small changes in that routine, I start to have a small internal anxiety attack. Also, I like to do things my own way, like, when it comes to cleaning the house or organizing stuff, etc. I get triggered even if people don’t do the laundry the way I do. I guess you could describe me as a perfectionist, clean/control freak. In triggering situations I can be impulsive, spontaneous, quick to act. Quick flare-ups of anger/annoyance when being provoked on my patience. Even when I’m feeling low, I manage to find humor in life and have fun with whatever I do have. Although I tend to bottle things up, I am an emotional person and my emotions are genuine – I love and care deeply and passionately and wish no ill will upon anyone, yet it hards for me to imagine someone falling in love with me or just liking me.
Hobbies, likes: My hobbies are cleaning, writing (re-writing song lyrics, making small notes, writing stories), listening to any type of music, catching up on my favorite films and TV shows, hanging out with friends, going to the cinema, or the club, being out in nature, reading, traveling. I like history, cooking, fashion magazines (or fashion in general), road trips, spirituality, mythology, books, orange juice, previous decades, cottage-core, dark academia.
Overall: Hufflepuff. INFP-T. Bi-sexual. Pisces-Aries cusp sign. “Looks like could kill you, but is actually a cinnamon roll.” A feminist, support LGBTQ+ community. That’s it, thank you!
hey @pataim ! thanks so much for sending in your request, and thank you so much for your honesty about yourself. like it takes a lot to air yourself out like that, and I admire your strength for it. but also fINALLY a 'Man from U.N.C.L.E' ship! I love that movie and attempt Illya's accent all the time, so this will be fun :)
For the MCU/Marvel - I ship you with Steve Rogers/Captain America ! 
no one can tell me that Steve doesn’t have a set routine honestly, so let me just get that out there 
he seems intimidating at first, esp as a public figure and Avenger, but Steve is nothing but passionate about what he does. so it may clash w your lack of direction, but I could honestly see him envying that a lil bit, like it’s not that you don’t have direction, it’s the fact that you still have a choice in the matter. 
your love of history put you in a museum, here you bumped into Steve in a horrible disguise. he struck up the conversation first, and once you got past the whole “holy crap that’s Captain America”, you could actually engage with him in the material and boi was he smitten 
he would love to join you when your rewatched your fave things, bc not only is he catching up on more media he missed out on, he’s also getting to know your interests in a way that’s comfortable with you. it avoids all the small talk, but leaves room for discussion after the film/show ! 
since you tend to sponge up a lot of what other people believe, it’s totally Steve who actually tries to question what you think and what you feel about things. he’s someone who encourages you to have your own opinions and to stay true to those thoughts. so while with him, you can rely on him to learn about yourself, you also gain skills for independence
overall, Steve is super patient, and despite his chaotic job as Cap, he takes comfort in his routine, and would find comfort incorporating a partner’s routine into his life. and as you grow in a relationship with him, he’s patient about teaching you how to be your own person, and helping you learn more about yourself. and while it’s uncomfortable, you grow stronger throughout being with him :) 
For The Hobbit - I ship you with Bilbo Baggins !
Bilbo is the definition of introvert, and you're right there with him
not that introversion is ever a bad thing, bc it isn't. but Bilbo is quite content to sit in his little hobbit hole and vibe. like Gandalf had to come find him, ya know. dude disappeared from his own bday.
but anyways. it's not that Bilbo lacks purpose, it's just that he's more content with a quieter life. and it seems like his quiet life would balance you out well! like the Shire is so so chill, and there doesn't really seem to be a lot of pressure on the hobbits to pick a profession. like they just genuinely do what needs to get done.
similarly, Bilbo is the type who seems a little bothered by mushy displays of affection. exhibit a: disappearing from his own bday. like he's much more the type to refill your tea when y'all are reading by the fireplace, which he would totally do w you
it will probs take you a little while to warm up to each, given just how introverted you both are. but when he explains that he has set ways of doing things, then if they're compatible w your ways of doing things, then it doesn't take you long to open up to him
like it'll be a little jarring, but he takes comfort in his routines too. and it'll be an event trying to incorporate both of your ways of life together, but he's willing to do it
overall, yours is a very quaint partnership, built on deep respect for one another. neither of you are going to push the other to do things you aren't into. and y'all just live your best lives together tbh :)
For The Man From U.N.C.L.E - I ship you with Illya Kuryakin !
I love my big Russian spy so much, so this is fun for me
so Illya is the epitome of reserved and generally quiet, so it might take a while to really break down his walls and talk to him. and he's not quite sure what to do with you once you join the team
but, he's playing his game of chess alone, and when you sit down and ask to play with him, he opens up a little more after that
if you're one who get sent out on mission with the team, get ready, bc sometimes those missions require a lot of improvising. but you'd probably be at whatever 'base' was, helping run operations from a more secure place. but Illya and Napoleon improvise a lot, leading to a lot of headaches for you and Waverly
Illya has small bursts of anger, but similar to Gaby, most times, you can intervene and he doesn't get violent. or when he does, he tries to make sure it isn't in front of you. but bc you care so deeply for him, you're there for him in the aftermath. and that's how you show your love for him.
by patching him up if he gets cut, by talking him down when he's angry. and just generally trying to take care of him. and he totally does the same for you, especially if you get sent out into the field
and much to Illya's dismay, Solo doesn't refrain form making jokes about you. but if you can take them in stride, then Solo welcomes you into the team just as well :)

Hi! Could I get a Harry Potter ship please? I’m in Ravenclaw, my sign is a Leo, I have long dark hair and blue eyes, tattoos on my arms. I love reading and cooking, but also have a lil wild side and love underground raves / house parties / mosh pits etc. Very very social and at my happiest around friends! My love language is touch or gift giving. I often get described as sweet :’) I’m a student nurse so would probably be a healer after hogwarts!
hey @slaterobsessedwow ! thanks so much for your request and thanks for being patient while I get it out there! also love that you do raves, bc I've always wanted to try them, they sound awesome! thanks again love!
For Harry Potter (Marauders Era) - I ship you with James Potter !
I almost put you w Sirius, but I didn't and here's why
Sirius def has a wild side, don't get me wrong. but given his situation, I feel like what starts as a 'wild side' by partying, could turn into a bigger problem, very fast. in his later years, Sirius gains some responsibility, but even then he still doesn't lose that reckless streak
James, on the other hand, is a little more contained
he can let go and have a good time but also knows when enough is enough - like he was willing to settle down w Lily so young so
but James would totally go to parties with you (if he wasn't throwing them ofc) and would love sneaking out to go to raves
I think James' love language is totally touch (he won't admit it), but it totally is. so when you're reading in the library, expect James to have his leg pressed against yours. or his hand slip into yours when you're walking between classes.
he would ADORE your tattoos, and wonder how he can go get some. and if you can draw any, he might ask you to draw some temporary ones on him in the meantime
being a Healer after Hogwarts is gonna come in handy, as you can often catch him trudging in late at night after Order missions with more injuries than he left with. so you stay up to put him back together and he reassures you that everything's fine
overall, y'all are just a good balance for each other, able to complement each other, making for a really fun relationship !
For Harry Potter (Golden Era) - I ship you with Fred Weasley !
Fred would totally go to a rave, lets just start there
in fact, if a certain someone managed to start a mosh pit at the Yule Ball, that'd be Fred and/or George
I'm huge into astrology work, so here's where I see some concerns. where you're a Leo, Fred is an Aries. so two fire signs can mean for a really dynamic relationship. but in my experience with fire signs, there's a lot of room for butting heads or disagreements. but, each person is different, so as long as y'all can address these heated issues as they come up, then you're set
Fred would love having a sociable partner, someone who can mix in with his crowd, and someone with their own crowd! it means you can hang w each other at parties, but also drift off and find you're own group. so having that little bit of space can help
Fred also loves having a sociable partner come Qudditch season
like this dude would totally have you wearing Gryffindor colors, except when it's a match against Ravenclaw, bc then you're obvi gonna yell for your own team!
in the post-Hogwarts years, but during the brewing war years, he’d love having a healer around, helping him clean up from Order missions but also cleaning up any injuring from Weasley joke products gone rogue 
after the final battle, it might take him a while to come back to his self. but, you’re there, a reassuring hand on his shoulder, an arm around his waist. and if he doesn’t like being touched, you learn his favorite foods (with recipes from Molly), and start making his fave meals to help out 
you can tell he’s gotten better when you’re snuggled on the couch reading, and his head is in your lap, and he doesn’t flinch at sounds as much
woooooow I had fun w this one omg 
but overall, Fred has a wild side, but as he and you mature, you both never lose that wild side, but learn how to grow into older ppl together :)

Hi do you think I could I get a golden trio era ship preferably male. I'm 5"2, a cancer and a hufflepuff. I have long curly brown hair and brown eyes with a nose piercing . I have a more chunky plus sized figure. I'm very loving and caring I am introverted. I love astronomy and anything to do with the stars, I also love crystals, astrology, flowers and smoking bud:) 🍃 I’m also hella clumsy and quite shy when it comes to talking to people at first but I do open up once i get comfortable. Also! Love the writing sis keep it up ♥️♥️
hi anon ! thanks for your kind words and your request ! i adore crystals too and have 3 sitting on my laptop as I type this out lol.
For Harry Potter (Golden Era) - I ship you with Harry Potter ! 
so i get this vibe of Luna from you, and I just adored their friendship in the series, so I really think y’all would make a good pair !
Harry has a hard time shaking the mantle of The Chosen One, so someone who is a little more down to earth and can see him for him is exactly what he needs
and at least in my practice, using crystals and esp divination has helped me get a read on ppl’s energy so much quicker, and so I think you’d be abe to pick up on his moods a little more than everyone else. and you’d be able to see what’s really bothering him and actually try and help 
he’d totally take you to the top of the astronomy tower and just hangout with you while y’all looked at the stars :) maybe even set up a lil picnic if he knew y’all didn’t have class the next day :) 
it might take Harry a little while to come around o the idea of crystals and witchcraft as we know it (if that’s what you practice ofc), I think he’d open up to the more mystical side of things, or at least try to understand where you’re coming from with it 
the same way he does for Luna :) 
and in general, he just needs someone who’s gonna take care of him, in a healthy way ofc, bc being who he is isn’t always easy, and he needs someone a little calmer to balance out just how hectic his day to day is

If it isn't to much trouble may i have (male) harry potter matchup please. My pronouns are she/her. Im a Capricorn, my Mbti type is infj-a/infj-t. I tend to be shy around new people but I can be somewhat loud with people who im close to. I have medium length brown hair, green eyes i wear round glasses,pale skin and a lot of freckles. My height is 5'0. My aesthetic would be cottegecore mixed with oversized sweaters. My hogwarts house is Hufflepuff. Im not very athletic and im not a big fan of sports but i love to go roller and ice skating. I also love to read books and to also cook and bake food. I also like to garden. I've been playing the violin for 6 years. I love animals and im planing on becoming a wildlife veterinarian. I like to Watch nature/animal documentaries. I also like sweets. Some things i dislike are people who bend or ruin my books and people who speak over me when im trying to talk. I like "cozy" video games like stardew valley,Minecraft,animal crossing, the sims. Im not a big fan of fighting games especially shooter games but i do like specific fighting games like genshin impact and legend of zelda. I love music, I can listen to any genre and like it but my favorites are indie,bedroom pop and classic rock. sorry if i spelt anything wrong. Hope im not bothering you :)
hey @armin-ocean-eyes ! thank you so much for your request! and turns out we have some things in common bc I too am a violinist and I love rollerskating, so if you ever wanna vibe, feel free to hop back in my inox. thanks again ! 
For Harry Potter (Golden Era) - I ship you with Neville Longbottom ! 
hello he’s the ultimate softie and you literally sound like a female version of him so i love that so much 
while at Hogwarts, it might take a while for you two to cross paths, since you’re in different houses. but y’all connected to Professor Sprout in Herbology, then she started using you two as student assistants and the rest was history 
y’all would totally sit in the library together, pouring through your own individual books, and occasionally showing each other something interesting you found from your stories. just being cool doing separate things, but together !
your first real date is when y’all try to go ice skating over Christmas break, except Neville can’t skate, so you spend the whole time holding his hand (but secretly that actually was his whole plan)
post-Hogwarts, y’all would totally be that couple who gets a little cottage and grows most of the foods you end up eating. he’s often out in the garden with his lil gardening hat and you in the kitchen w your apron and the smell of baked fruit wafting through the windows :)
For Harry Potter (Marauders Era) - I ship you with Remus Lupin ! 
Remus is totally the type to play Animal Crossing, let’s start with that 
but you and Remus meet in the library (a perfect meet cute spot honestly) when it’s nearing exams season, and he happens to have a book out that you really need for an essay, and thankfully, he lets you borrow it and you all trade off using the book for your respective studying 
the trouble come with meeting the rest of the Marauders, bc although their hearts are generally in the right place, it doesn’t always come across like that, and they can be loud and talk over themselves 
but once Remus explains to them what you’re like, they’ll find ways to back off, and find ways to try and incorporate you into the group!
like James asking you for ways girls like to be impressed for Lily :)
or a group roller skating date, bc let’s be real, we would all pay serious money to see these boys skating to 70′s disco 
post-Hogwarts, and in a perfect world, the Marauders would come ‘round yours and Remus’s house for a litany of baked goods and admire the garden you all have cultivated together 
Overall, Remus doesn’t believe he deserves softness bc of his condition, but it’s your way of doing things that reminds him that love doesn’t always come in grand gestures. sometimes it’s sitting at a small kitchen table, sharing a meal with the one person you truly couldn’t live without :)

Hey if Harry Potter ships are still open can I have one please
I'm a 5'5 pansexual demigirl. I am kinda chubby. I have blue shoulder length fluffy hair. I am pretty introverted. I love drawing mostly people. I have a adoration for dragons. I overwork myself sometimes. I stay up later than I should. I sometimes a trouble controlling my anger. I sometimes make random noises that I pray no one is annoyed by.
If you need more information for it please tell me I'm not good with these thing. :]
hi @dragonhybrid456 thank you so much for your request ! so glad I could work on this for you sweetheart ! 
For Harry Potter (Marauders Era) - I ship you with Sirius Black !
first off, Sirius notices you by your hair, and it takes everything in him 9and Remus talking him out of it) to not go dye his hair blue 
when he finds out that you’re more introverted, Sirius takes it as a challenge to potentially embarrass you as much as he can, since he’s often the life of the party 
but in private, it’s a different story. he sees introversion as smth to be admired, bc introverts can still make a huge impact on ppl around them without being flashy, and to a point, Sirius envies that 
it’s when you’re both staying out a little too late, roaming the corridors, that he actually gets to talk to you, and his bravado slips and then y’all are close after that 
he would totally let you draw him, and he couldn’t get enough of it, the fact that someone has decided that he’s their muse. it’s the attention he craves, but for the right reason this time 
he’d literally figure out how to draw you a dragon as a thank you gift for being partners with him 
overall, he’s just a total softie and it seems odd that someone who appears lie his opposite is actually a good match for him, but he loves it :) 
For Harry Potter (Golden Era) - I ship you with Ron Weasley ! 
ahh Ronald, our precious boy, we really have no choice but to stan 
y’all bond after first year when you somehow find out that Hagrid has a baby dragon, Norbert
Hagrid letting you take care of the dragon, I’m soft 
but anyways, after Charlie Weasley comes to get him, you remember that you actually see Ron and bombard him with questions about Charlie, which normally you would never do but hey, dragons am i right  
you become another addition to the round of ppl who stay w the Weasley’s on holidays and spend ages talking to Charlie about it, and Ron is happy to have someone who blends in so well with his family 
Ron knows what overworking yourself looks like, and we see him in bits trying to help Hermione through it, and he’d totally do the same for you. whatever you needed him to do, like bring you tea or force you to take breaks, he’d do it
he would also let you draw him, but you’d have to do it in secret for a while at first. part of him is so used to having to compete for attention that he’s a little put off by the idea of posing for someone, like he’s their muse. but he comes around to the idea eventually, and when he sees how much attention you paid to his details, he falls even more in love 
overall Ron is a softie but in his own way, and he’d take care of you in any way he could, except you’d always somehow manage to get roped into the Golden Trio’s shenanigans
