Day 7 Moody March || @jilymicrofics || Enraged || 482 wrds
Read Straight From the Horse's Mouth on ao3 or under the cut
Lord Potter flung himself in the saddle. The stable boy jumped backwards just in time to avoid the great horse’s hooves.
James’s volatile mood instantly transferred to Prongs, his young stallion with boundless amounts of nervous energy. As soon as he landed in the saddle they were off, flying past his friends who started shouting at him. He did not heed them.
He needed to be away, to hear only pounding hooves and the howling wind in his ears. He needed to stop hearing Mr Snape's words in his mind.
Even if he knew, rationally, there was no reason, no real reason anyway, to think Miss Evans would ever accept the unpleasant man's suit, still, the thought of him proposing to her, enraged him beyond anything he’d ever experienced. Why was that? Why did it bother him so much to think of her as another's. Was it just his severe dislike of Mr Snape?
James knew it wasn't just that. He wanted her. He deserved her. Well, maybe he didn’t deserve her exactly, but neither did Mr Snape, who believed women were only meant to serve their husbands. He would treat her like nothing more than a good looking pet. The whole idea was absolutely repugnant.
Prongs was on a stampede now, his mane flared out in the wind. Just like the wind swept through James's hair. If they kept going this fast his hat would surely be lost before long. The strong muscles underneath him tensed with each great stride, a hedge proved no obstacle for one swift jump cleared it with ease.
After the second jump his mind cleared and for a while there was nothing but the contracting muscles underneath him, the rhythm of the gallop through the wide forest path, the thundering of hooves, the loud exhales of Prongs and his own short breaths.
At a clearing he slowed and stopped. The sun was out, the leaves of the trees threw their moving shadows over the mossy forest floor. Prongs snorted loudly then pulled the reins and stretched his neck, bending down to rub his face against his front legs. The motion jerked James forward. The moment of awkwardness made him laugh at himself, which reminded him again of miss Evans. She dearly liked to laugh, as he'd come to learn. She would not shy away from telling him her mind, or even tease him, and he'd come to enjoy that even more than her lovely face
Wasn’t it better that he should hear it from the horse’s mouth? Instead of driving himself crazy over what ifs and losing his mind over things that hadn't happened yet.
What if he approached Miss Evans to ask for her hand, what would be the worst that could happen?
As if he could read his mind Prongs shook himself and sidestepped some invisible creature, nearly throwing James with his abrupt movement.

🛑🛑🛑OFMD S2 FINALE SPOILERS🛑🛑🛑
I'm never going to recover from this.
Bc really, what was the reason?! It feels antithetical to the show's entire premise. A show about queer joy and found family, a show about healing and love and trust. Ended in this way, it feels like a betrayal. A betrayal of the highest order. It felt like we had finally been given a gift, an unapologetically queer show with an amazing cast, and then they just...throw it in our faces?! Lull us into a false sense of security and then spit on us?! Jesus christ
The writers: Let's create a gorgeously complex, well written character, give him an incredibly meaningful and moving story arc, and then kill him off. 😀 Let's spend the entire season giving this character a glimpse of joy, finally some fucking hope in his life and then we'll give him a horrible unessecary death. That makes sense. Yeah, let's do that.
It feels lazy. It feels like a cop out. There was really no other way the writers could've thought to resolve Ed, Stede, & Izzy's arc together? I find that hard to believe.
I'm so angry. I'm beyond upset. My day is genuinely ruined.
