it’s so funny to me that remus didn’t write harry even once during GoF, a year that began with the dark mark at a public event, a ministry official disappearance and an underage harry being chosen for an extremely dangerous tournament
meanwhile sirius, a convicted criminal, snuck into hogsmeade and lived off rats because he wanted to be there for harry

Darien: You’ve got two options; a shitty flight that’ll take over twenty-four hours with two stops, paid for by yourself, or I’ll pay the difference for an eleven hour one.
Brynn: The shitty one.
Darien: Alright…
Brynn: I not think I have enough money yet.
Darien: You just didn’t know where to look.
Brynn: Thank you.
Darien: It’s fine-.. are you excited?
Brynn: Not really.
Darien: About the baby…
Brynn: Oh, yes! I always think about having babies one day.
Darien: With Wyatt?
Brynn: Not in the beginning, maybe.
Darien: I’m sorry-.. for everything.
Brynn: Is okay, I have also trodden on other people to get ahead sometimes.
Darien: You seem pretty understanding about it all.
Brynn: Life is too short for grudges and regret, no? People change.
Darien: I suppose you’re right.
Brynn: You know he is called Kaito now?
Darien: I know, where’d you think he got his paperwork from?
Brynn: Ohh, you are very clever.
Darien: It’s who you know, not what.
Brynn: That is true.
Darien: Okay, your flight’s booked for tomorrow night at eleven thirty-four.
Brynn: Is already tomorrow.

Bonus Day - Alternate Universe
Technically following starwarssapphicweek's day 7 prompt, I just really wanted to do some star wars mermaids for MerMay, even if sapphic week is over (and it's never the wrong time to post barrissoka)
[ID: A pencil drawing of Ahsoka Tano and Barriss Offee as mermaids holding hands. Ahsoka's tail is striped like her lekku, and she has fins in the same shape as the markings on her cheeks. Her lekku are floating in the water. Barriss' tail has lines all down it like her shirt does and her fins are black diamonds, like her tattoos. She wears a swimming hijab patterned like her normal hood.]

My first time playing Xenoblade 2 I thought the game was… problematic, I’ll put it that way. It’s a deeply flawed game and it’s flawed in ways that you can only really get past with either extreme levels of benefit of the doubt (for the extremely weak beginning of the story, bad voice acting and cringy dialogue, questionable character designs, that kinda stuff) or outside help from the community (everything gameplay related. Playing this game the “right way” is very hard to do with how badly the game explains itself). This led to me playing it the first time and wondering what the hell went wrong after Xenoblade 1 was so good.
Then I played Torna: The Golden Country and really enjoyed it. Then I started seeing guides on the internet about how to make the gameplay easier and more fun. Then I replayed the base game eventually and I began to absolutely adore it. Being able to avoid the gameplay pitfalls (especially toward the beginning) and dig into the story and characters more thanks to the context of the late game story + Torna really helped the game for me, and now it’s one of my favorite games. But also getting to that point took an abnormal amount of dedication that most people probably won’t have for a game this obviously flawed.

i cannot stress this enough:
nie mingjue tried to kill jin guangyao, both before and after he died, but nmj’s reasons for trying to kill jgy never included “jin guangyao killed him.”
nmj never knew that jgy played a part in his death.
he was generally paranoid, but there is no indication that he had any real, concrete information about anything jgy was dealing with. nmj never actually knew anything about what jgy was doing.
he did not know that jgy had done anything to the music, and he had no reason to believe that the progression of his qi instability was anything other than natural. we don’t see any indication that he even acknowledged that it was getting worse.
moreover, nmj tried to kill jgy multiple times BEFORE he died, even before jgy started playing for him. even after jgy was playing for him, what finally set off nmj’s fatal qi deviation was not, in fact, the revelation that jgy was trying to kill him, but overhearing jgy’s private comment to xichen that nmj was treating jgy poorly. that was what sent him into his fatal, paranoid rage.
