hi! please feel free to delete this! but i read through your rec list (and found some amazing fics, ty!!) but i was wondering if you had any recs for fics where harry is helped by draco after the war? like he’s struggling with PTSD and being a public figure and going through it emotionally and draco takes care of him and helps him and they become closer for it and harry learns he doesn’t always have to be this Savior he can just be Harry with Draco! thank you in advance and sorry to bother you!

Not a bother at all, anon! I definitely have some recs for you. Some are set in the immediate post-war, some are set years later but they all explore Harry struggling with war/childhood trauma, fame, loneliness and the unbearable weight of having to find your way when no one else is telling you what to do anymore. Such a relatable feeling tbh. I hope you enjoy these!

When he wasn’t wearing it, he got jumpy, always waiting for someone to come at him wanting something—and now they did it even more urgently, if they ever saw him, because most of the time, nobody did.

Holly and Hawthorn, Thistle and Thyme by bryoneybrynn (T, 31k)

After the war, Harry can’t shake the feeling that something is very wrong with him and he has a terrible feeling he knows what that “something” might be. He has a terrible feeling Malfoy might know, too.

Expecto Patronum by @writcraft (E, 35k)

As Draco Malfoy negotiates his feelings for the wizarding world's brightest star, he becomes increasingly attached to Harry and unravels the secrets he keeps hidden from the rest of the world.

(Un)wanted by @aibidil (E, 36k)

Ginny's pregnant, then she's not and Harry's single. Harry, again with no family, doesn't know what to do with this turn of events, or how to find a new life—post-war, post-Ginny, post-abortion—in which he belongs. He doesn't expect that life to include dancing to the Backstreet Boys with Hermione and Draco Malfoy. A story of finding belonging in the unexpected.

He Who Must Not Be Normal by lettered (E, 41k)

Potter has fame and fortune and posh clothes and all he wants is a simple life. Draco has a flat and a cat and a steady job and all he wants is a complicated life. Which makes you think this story has something exciting like body-swapping, but it doesn’t.

Harry Potter finally has the chance to leave England and its expectations for The Chosen One behind for good. All he has to do is survive one Auror training conference overseas with Draco Sodding Malfoy.

Modern Love by @tackytigerfic (E, 61k)

Harry Potter, of all people, knows that life isn’t always fair. And no one gets to be happy all of the time. But surely there’s something more—something better—than a rubbish Ministry job, and a lonely old house, and that feeling that everyone out there is doing a better job of living than Harry is.

The Way Down by lettered (T, 65k)

Harry is overwhelmed by his own power and fame and angst, so he's become a hermit. Draco Malfoy is tired of the melodrama.

Harry Potter and the elusive day off by pleasebekidding (E, 71k)

Auror Potter needs a fucking break. He is wiped. He is exhausted. He probably didn't intend to put himself into a magical coma but these things happen. And who cares, really? He is comfortable in a house where he has hidden away all the shit he can't deal with.

I Am Not Who I Became by mab_di (E, 93k)

Draco left England after the trials and has travelled the world meeting wizards and Muggles from different cultures and with vastly different relationships to magic, each other, and the natural world. Now he's a fisherman in Finland on commercial vessels. Harry has been struggling since the war and has become a recluse while trying to write his autobiography.

Who we are in the shadows by @quicksilvermaid (E, 100k)

What happens when you’re forced to become the very thing you despise? Ex-Auror Harry Potter, tossed out of the Ministry for something he had no control over, has been looking for a way back to his former life. When he comes across Draco Malfoy in the criminal underbelly of Wizarding London and in need of protection, Harry figures bringing him in to face the Ministry's justice is his ticket back to everything he's lost.

A Sword Laid Aside by korlaena (E, 128k)

When Draco’s cover is blown during a deep undercover operation and the Ministry is compromised, Ron takes Draco to the only safe place he can think of—Potter. Hiding out with a taciturn Harry Potter, who has been missing from the Wizarding World for almost two decades after a shocking fall from grace, is nothing like Draco thought it would be

By the Grace by lettered (T, 140k)

Harry is an Auror instructor. Malfoy wants to be an Auror.

where all the veins meet by @saxamophone (E, 146k)

It's the summer of 1998. The battle is over, and Voldemort is dead, but Harry still has more questions than answers. Who is he without a piece of Voldemort's soul in his head? What is he supposed to do now?

Scouring a Q&A archive for realmslore, as I am wont to do, and seeing people being semi-officially (officially?) directed to Lords of Darkness when they ask about Realms-specific undead lore even in the 5e era is amusing, and also validating (I love that book. I love how creating tomb guardians/mummies works in the Realms: it's so fucked up. I love the Bhaalist mummy and his relationship problems. I want my Bhaalist to get mummified.)

But anyway the concept that that lore holds in 5e Toril is darkly hilarious to me for reasons, because you'd be applying this to BG3:

Greater and Lesser vampires: Toril does in fact have rare daylight walking vampires! They're created when a succubus kills you by kissing you (ie draining your life force and consuming your soul during make out sessions/sex) and then your corpse rises again as a soulless undead horror that can walk in sunlight. Other than the daywalking a greater vampire is exactly like a normal vampire.

And I'm just... You can get your soul eaten by a fiend in game: can you imagine Astarion's reaction if - after being dumb enough to get fucked to death by Haarlep I know they don't kill you in-game, humour me - you came back as a vampire able to walk in the sun right off the bat? Either he's going to be insanely envious (why do you get everything he wants through an act of terminal stupidity), or he's going to be extremely put out that he isn't special. "There are no vampires like me" Are you sure babe? Bet?

Also as far as Toril is concerned with undeath in its own setting: undeath is evil, as are all of it's sources and all acts of inflicting it upon somebody (except for Baelnorn), but the undead are people and a bit more complicated. Not necessarily terribly nice people, who are monsters and sometimes have to do horrible things due to their nature, but they have control of their actions do damage control and decide not to be total bastards. (Most are total bastards). There are folk stories and legends of protective ancestors and helpful undead, and some undead hunters are wont to let "sleeping undead lie" if they're not bothering anyone. Interestingly I also saw something today that some undead hunting is actually done by undead, who don't appreciate other, less pragmatic and/or morally inclined undead being more evil and destructive than they need to be ("‘nuisance’ undead") and risking encouraging hatred/fear of the undead and angry mobs amongst the living: do you mind, some of us are trying to unlive in relative peace here. How is a Lich supposed to study with clerics breaking down their door, you animals?? Different source again, but D&D's token "good" vampire is a Torilian native (and by "good" I mean Chaotic Neutral and messy, and currently being warped and tormented by the Dark Powers of Ravenloft who enjoy a good chew toy). Toril does have another "good" vampire in official material, but he's been cursed to be Lawful Good and would explicitly go back to being a monster if you lifted that curse, so methinks he doth not count.

#shy bc i am definitely treading into dangerous territory here but #i just dont see why people care so much about the term bi lesbian. like who care. #and people are making it out to be this huge threat to lesbianism and bisexuality like. is it really? is it? #and i guess the other part of it is people trying so desperately trying to pin down some definitive and all encompassing #definition for what is and isnt a lesbian and its just. uhm guys do we really need these definitive solid definitions and #strict bold lines drawn between this and that like . its just a waste of time and this actually Does harm people #like you guys just need to understand that the definitions and lines between this and that orientation are really vague #and that youre making a huge monster out of something that really i dont think effects anyone #plus theres things from the 70s even mentioning 'bisexual lesbians' in like many different contexts or meanings #and also the 'definition' of lesbian used to include bisexuals? the 'definition' has changed a whole lot over time #also seeing this stuff from people who are like 'trans men cant be lesbians' like . whuh. #idk i think my and many of my mutuals genders would make you rip your hair out in rage and frustration. #transgenderism is so. i need you to know that 'trans man' can mean SO many things . and that its just complicated #im just not a fan of people trying to draw solid bold lines between different lgbtq terms and identities bc . its really not solid......... #also some of the explanations i see for why bi lesbians are bad are just. no other way to describe them other than invalid. lawl #'by identifying as a bi lesbian its your fault that straight men harass lesbians' #'bi lesbians are erasing the bisexual community' #'bi lesbians are encroaching on our precious lesbian only spaces and destroying lesbian culture' #'bi lesbians are erasing lesbian and monosexual privilege over bisexuals' (<- WHAT privilege ??? 😭) #like its just . gets a headache for real. i think there are more worthwhile things to put your effort and attention towards #rather than getting angry at like what. a handful of internet people using some term . like i just dont see how this is a pressing issue #im sure that the like 'discourse' about it has made this seem like much more of an issue than it really is.

sry its just like rly incredibly annoying how much ppl will like. IDK. yes ik a lot of autistic and adhd ppl who do love music. and sometimes it is bc of their neurodivergence yk. music can be grounding its familiar its reliable and comfortable. i think its fine to say Autistic/ADHD ppl often find comfort in music. but its stupid as fuck to say Therefore enjoying music makes you autistic/adhd.

#like that cant be the only diagnostic criteria... im not at all anti self dx but i am anti just hearing abt something doing 0 research and #being like yep thats so me. yk. #likeee. i have a LOT of issues on the psych industry trust me. i also think in a lot of cases its dangerous to be diagnosed. and in most #cases self dxing even uninformed self dxing isnt harmful its just like. idk. it can be harmful when you use it to spread misinfo #even unknowingly. IDK.... like. i enjoy eating the same foods over and over bc they are safe and reliable. expecting these foods #and then getting something different than what i was expecting is incredibly upsetting. that is bc of my autism but if that was the ONLY #autistic trait i had i wouldnt say i was autistic i would just say that i find comfort in my foods being reliable and i dislike change. #and i think a lot of ppl just feel this need to put a label on every single thing abt them down to like. the way they walk. #like do i do the classic autistic Walking on the balls of my feet yes its true i do do that. but again i wouldnt say i was autistic just bc #of that... sometimes its just a quirk you have. sometimes you just have things you do and you dont need a label to put on them to explain #that thing... its more just like. if you do have that dx or whatever you can look at that thing and be like oh this might be bc of that dx. #and you can kind of bond over that with other ppl. IDKK its complicated and im rambling #again idt its like super harmful to self dx even uninformed its just like. i wish sometimes people would just be like . chill abt labels #its the same thing with sexualities and gender like. sometimes you dont need a hyperspecific word to describe your entire identity sometime #you can just be a person. yk. like i love being bisexual i love the bisexual label and im proud of being bi. i dont feel the need #to look into the specific ratio of who im attracted to or when im attracted to them or whatever to make a more specific label. IDK THO #idk. basically i just think instead of trying to group everybody into these tiny Ultra specific groups of ppl you relate to i think you #should just be like. Oh everybodys a person even if they dont experience everything the exact way i do. idk whatever

[violentviolette]

the things you've said about bipolar disorder are focused on BP I. they are not wholly true for BP II and cyclothymia. for example, long term therapy is strongly insisted upon as part of treatment for BP II and cyclothymia. there are specific therapies for people with persistent mood disorders, and can be custom tailored for the needs of the patient. this is a fact.

there is higher risk of persistent and often permanent degeneration of cognitive functions in patients with BP II and cyclothymia (with medication). there is a significantly higher risk of relapse in patients on medication, due to a number of factors including the above mentioned cognitive decline. thus, continued "supervision" and support is often required.

patients with BP II are much more likely to die of unnatural causes than with BP I (again, even medicated), and this can only be extrapolated from to imagine how many people -actually- die from suicide or drug overdose or risk seeking behaviours who had BP II but were misdiagnosed with something else. Many people with BP II and cyclothymia end up undiagnosed as the manifestation of these disorders is often misunderstood or mistaken for something else.

while lithium and other mood stabilizers have been used to treat BP II, their effectiveness can undermined by persistent depression and requires other medications to be added on top of it, increasing instability and risk of relapse. the truth is that usage of lithium and other medications for BP II is simply taken for granted because it works for BP I. meaning that those might actually not be the best compounds, but further research into better solutions is lacking.

no well meaning or informed person would ever advocate against taking medication for any kind of bipolar or other persistent mood disorder. these are absolutely necessary to increase the patient's chances of survival, to preserve some kind of quality of life, and any evidence to the contrary is anecdotal at best. however, the reality is that when it comes to BP II and cyclothymia, it is very much not a case of "set it and forget it". the prognosis of a patient with these mood disorders, even on medication, even with therapy, is not as promising as it is the case with BP I.

there's some new stuff coming out in terms of pharmacology, that supposedly performed as well or better than lithium for BP II, but as it's always the case, only longer term and more widespread use will tell how that works out

there is definitly way more nuance to these things when ur having a deeper conversation about it for sure, and bpI vs bpII absolutely have their own different needs and bpII is unarguably the more difficult one to treat with much more personal variation between patients for a lot of the reasons u stated. ur absolutely right on those points and we dont disagree there at all there are some things in here i do disagree with, and I also have some of my own thoughts that are just theories, particularly about the inclusion of trauma and how that impacts ppl. i would theorize that severe enough trauma combined with genetic potential for but not full expression of bipolar is more likely what creates bpII and thus why treatment often fails and patients relapse. because their brains arent malfunctioning as an organ the same way bpI brains are and its the underlying trauma which is the actual cause and it is not being properly addressed and treated (which isnt to say trauma doesnt cause physical changes to the brain because it absolutely does, but those changes are going to be different and therefore require different approaches). but again that is just a theory and has not been clinically studied, but i do think as our understanding of trauma and the parts it plays in mental illnesses expands these kinds of things will be explored more

but also what i want to make very clear is that this statement "no well meaning or informed person would ever advocate against taking medication for any kind of bipolar or other persistent mood disorder." is completely untrue and its the entire reason i made that post. that IS very much what people are advocating for in what they think is good faith and talking about. i have seen this SO much over the years, people saying that meds are poison, that they change u, that they'll kill ur creativity and make u a zombie, that big pharma just wants u to take more drugs. i once had someone tell me drs only pushed lithium for bipolar because of "big lithium corps" when lithium is literally a naturally occuring mineral and thus a generic that cannot be patented. i have been in many discord servers where ppl tell u to just "raw dog" ur mania. that its good for u because its ur brains natural cycle. which is why i started on this topic at all, because the original reply was upset about there being so few bipolar discords, and these kinds of harmful sentiments being common place among those servers are one of the main reasons none of them last more than a few months and thus there are so few. because shockingly bipolar people off their meds and elbow deep in their own manic delusions arent exactly the best support network for sound medical advice

#jack.speaks #anon #bipolar disorder #were not on opposite sides of thinking but i think we are very much having two different conversations #im not arguing that people who struggle dont exist or that their experiences arent real or that theyre just doing something wrong #and thats why it didnt work for them or anything or that they dont need more complex treatment #this stuff is very complicated and nuanced when u actually get into individual varience and experiences and im not trying to argue against #or deny anyones experience or struggles #im very much not talking to yall i am talking to the people who are completely off their meds with zero treatment knee deep in a manic epis #listening to both their delusional brains and other peoples fucked up and wrong advice that they dont need meds #they just need a discord support group #when that is very much the worst idea possible #and i know that that exists because i have seen it and experienced it myself

cosmo wanda i fucking wish students understood that universities have limited reach and that public silence does not automatically mean no action is being taken internally and that the decisions of collectives / institutions do not reflect the decisions of all of the people within them (e.g. all faculty staff and administrators within an institution) etc etc. god DAMN it to hell. you people (not anyone reading this im saying this as if im talking to the student body at my school) look so fucking stupid @ing the social media accounts of distinct departments like that’s actually going to do anything. you think they ARENT doing anyrhing????? that’s probably ALL they’re focusing on rn and they’re spending days carefully gathering information so they can share it. and shit is hitting the fan in MULTIPLE areas rn if you haven’t noticed and also it’s winter fucking break so no one is even supposed to be working anyway. so what is wrong with you. why are you fucking making demands. getting a college to finally post an update about something is not the same as cancelling someone on twitter and the fact that so many of you think it is is indicative of how SICK our society has become. PLEASE calm down.

#purrs #literally about to start screaming. people have been so fucking stupid this year. that is all i am going to say. #and ik this bears a weight being a staff member here now but i was a student 6 months ago and years ago i used to do the same stupid shit an #and then i went to the retreat and learned that universities are communities made of people and that i can change the world by talking to #stakeholders and being strategic and patient and having civic courage and building relationships. and now i spend my life trying to teach #other ppl how to do that. so seeing students WHO I KNOW ARE AWARE THAT THIS ISNT THE WAY doing this makes me want to start SCREAMING. like #it was all for nothing. the HOURS of workshops you went through learning how to actually make change and ‘demand’ change and now you’re #engaging in this edgy bullshit. i want to curl up in a ball and/or jump out the window rn. sorry #delete later #work tag 2 #this is literally the 5th or 6th incident in 2022 and i know it’s more complicated than that and yes there are genuine wrongdoings the #school / depts and individuals within it have committed. but also the knee jerk reaction of students to instantly turn into a mob and start #saying u*** does nothing u*** doesn’t care about it’s students is like are you KIDDING MEEEEEEEEE. ARE YOU KIDDING ME. how about you talk to #x person who i know firsthand is trying to navigate this issue and suppprt students. how about you join x committee that just made progress #in this area. how about you get offline and go touch grass and realize your COMMUNITY isn’t out to get you!!!! #institutions are not inherently bad lol. institutions are communities. communities are POWER. if i could send one message to everyone on the #planet i think it would be that or at least include that bc i would also want to say stuff abt how we are real and human and alive together #etc etc. but that is like. something so many ppl do not see. being part of a university is POWER. being a student is POWER. so use it for #good!!!!! join committees! set up meetings with admin!!!!! join student gov!! this learned helplessness of @ing the school is NOT THE WAY #not when you have tools and relationships at your disposal to actually make a sustainable long term difference. what are you waiting for! th #the whole world is yours!! it’s at your fingertips! do you feel it? do you see it?

[elytrafemme]

ive been wavering back and forth recently on whether or not i like dudes still (which now is probably the worst time for me to debate that because there are a lot of uh confounding factors to say the least with my life situation rn). but ultimately it’s like. okay if i do and ? 

i’m a lesbian and i love women so fucking much. i also share a consciousness with a queer man who loves men and we share romantic experiences in a sense so sometimes i like men in a guy way too. my gender identity is really fucking complex entirely on its own. sometimes i maybe like guys but lesbian still feels like a better term for me because i connect with the community and also loving women has felt like an integral part of my life while liking men is a special bonus. obviously nonbinary people fit in here where they fit in. and! yeah :D

#nightmare.personal #it's just. it's nice because as i've slowly started talking about. more and more but am trying to be careful about mentioning #attraction has become really complicated for a lot of reasons. nowadays a lot of it has to do with certain coping mechanisms #where i find myself flirting with a guy without being attracted to him just attracted to what role he could have in my life #but all's that to say that even with that shit it's good to have something solid here #i love women and i'm a lesbian and everything else will come as it comes. #and also loving nonbinary people kind of depends on the nonbinary person bc #gender presentation and all that differs and also i'm pretty selective with my actual attraction anyway #albeit all the people i have seriously felt attracted to recently were they/she/hes like me :] #idk if this makes sense my brain. gets scattered w this stuff

[bibridlizzie]

did lizzie ever kill anyone in legacies (who she didn't know would come back)? i just started thinking about it and it's very possible i'm forgetting something but i don't think she did?

#and like. if she didn't i think she might be the only one. mg killed landon (and yes he came back and yes mg was out of control and felt #awful about it but he did kill landon without knowing he'd come back.) #finch killed her grandfahter which i am extremely hesitant to count esp bc i would argue that he really killed himself there #but the werewolf curse disagrees with me so. i'm counting it idk. #josie killed people (lizzie and alyssa. i'm not sure if there are any others?) #hope killed lizzie (not knowing she'd come back) and that one bar vampire and some others i'm sure i don't remember everything yknow #do we know if kaleb killed anyone? i wouldn't be surprised if he had at the beginning but idk. #i know he says stuff about not wanting cleo to see his past so like. i would not be surprised if he killed someone at some point. #though it could also just be about how he used to look at humans in s1 but. idk. and jed killed his dad (justified but still true. i'm not #Just tlaking about unjustified killings). ben and jen idk about. i have a hard time believing Jen's never killed anyone but idk about ben. #he was gonna kill kaleb but it didn't happen so. yknow #also cleo is... complicated bc like. her AND hope killed cleo killed ken like it was a group effort. but if we put ken to the side then #there's another complicated thing which is that like. i was talking about actually killing someone and i was talking about not knowing #they'd come back but like i meant like not REALLY taking someone's life away and so the whole cleo trying to kill hope thing #is a bit complicated. bc she didn't Actually kill her but it wasn't like with lizzie where lizzie stopped herself. she was only stopped bc #of hope and then landon she was fully gonna do it. and she Did know hope was gonna come back but to me that's different than when lizzie #snaps hope's neck knowing she'll come back or when jed snaps ben's neck knowing he'll come back bc like. it's just different yknow #jed knew ben would come back the same and lizzie knew hope would come back the same. it's more like incapacitation than murder in #practicality. but what cleo was trying to do WAS taking Hope's human life away. it was taking something away from her as opposed to just #taking her out for a minute. i GET cleo's reasoning. i don't hate her and i'm not mad at her at all. genuinely love her. but i do think #that the whole hope thing should kinda count since she had every intention to go through with it #i don't know if landon or raf ever killed anybody. i don't think they did actually. i kinda forgot about them tbh. oh but for hope #she did also kill landon. didn't think about that #updating to say raf killed his girlfriend and i just completely forgot about that? when the killing thing is literally a part of the #werewolf stuff. lmao. and landon killed the necromancer so. they have actually both killed someone.

hobie x fem! reader

thinking of hobie brown rn…!

hobie who knows you love the height difference between you two and uses it to his advantage. is constantly angling his head upwards, which causes him to purposely peer down at you through his thick eyelashes. you always get flustered each time he narrows his eyes and tilts his chin, and him being the ever so perceptive spider he is, takes notice of your heated cheeks and continues to do so.

whenever he’s near a doorway or a thick frame he lovesss to lay a palm on the top of it, trapping your body beneath his as you ramble on about whatever it is you’re rambling about. he makes sure to nod along while effectively moving a hand towards your plush waist, bringing your figure flush against his own. he plays with the seam of your shirt, and urges you to keep going when you stutter from the sudden change in position.

hobie who loves to annoy you with his British slang. it’s not necessarily because he uses it often that irks you, it’s the fact that you have no idea what he’s saying and he never makes an effort to help you understand. (he actually finds it amusing each time you attempt to guess what he means and is completely off base every single time).

“babe, I’d love ta get ya that shirt you’ve been beggin’ for, but I’m skint right now. try me next week, yeah?” he hummed, kicking his feet up on the railing next to your bed.

“skint? I feel like you’ve used that one before..” you muttered, huffing in irritation by the smug look on hobie’s face, his lips quirked in amusement.

“told ya what it meant last week. thought ya said you could ‘se context clues?”

“whatever bee, maybe you should speak english.”

“‘aint that what ‘m doin’?”

hobie who always has a blunt neatly rolled on his dresser, his ash tray placed gently to the left of it. he often smoked before running off to whatever it is he did when he wasn’t home (he was very unpredictable as he switched it up weekly to “fuck up consistency” whatever the hell that meant).

hobie inhaled gingerly before tilting his head towards his peeling painted ceiling, his fingers lingered tightly on the wood before lifting it to your lips, “want a go?”

you shook your head, nuzzling further into his shoulder, “mhm no, too tired.” hobie chuckled before greedily puffing the joint, shuttering at the burning feeling it left.

“suit yourself love, more for me.”

hobie who you introduce differently to your friends each time you bring him up. one day he’s your boyfriend, the next he’s your significant other, and the next he’s your ‘close friend’. they always question the constant switch ups, but you don’t ever seem to mind. you know where you stand with the man, and to him that’s all that matters.

“so what’s up with you and…..” your friend trailed off, stirring the ice in her drink.

“hobie?” you questioned.

“yeah him, so is he your boyfriend or what?”

“it’s complicated, he hates labels, makes him feel confined.” you replied, shrugging your shoulders as you lay your head on your palm.

“that doesn’t bother you? is he like scared of commitment or something?”

you scoff, lightly shaking your head, “no, he just doesn’t want to contribute to the system.” you answered bluntly, taking another sip of your lemonade.

“the system?” your friend asked, eyebrow raised at the quip.

“nevermind, don’t worry about it.”

hobie who subtly brags about you to his people. loves to show you off, and has no problem admitting he does.

“yeah bruv, my girl jus’ got into her dream fuckin’ college. been workin’ hard for that shit all year, man.” hobie boasted, pushing his hands out in order to bounce off the wall next to him.

“oh my goodness how wonderful! when do we get to meet this companion of yours?” pavitr questioned, flinging his body upwards to keep up with the male to his right.

“eh, don’t know yet, when I feel like it, yeah?”

all in all hobie is so cute and I literally am in love with him!!

Dear Good Omens fandom friends,

can we please agree to keep our sand in our sandbox?

We have a great sandbox. It's big and full of people building castles and villages and roads and stuff. Some of that is big and complicated and detail-oriented, some of it is strange and weird and funny, some if it is off-the-rails in any and all senses of the word. All of it is lovely. Some of it tries to rebuild Neil Gaiman's sandcastle as faithful as possible, either to build onto it or to try and find out where the secret rooms might be hidden. Some of it looks a lot like his but has its own little turrets and courtyards and gardens added everywhere. Some of it looks completely different and doesn't try to hide it. Some of it isn't even meant to be taken seriously and just exists to make people laugh. But there is so much of it that everybody can find something for themselves; and if we don't we just find a free space and start shifting sand ourselves.

Neil Gaiman has his own sandbox. He has built something brilliant and beautiful in it, and he is currently busy building another storey onto it. He doesn't want anybody to see the new part before it is finished, and I know that sometimes the excitement of finally wanting to see it is hard to bear.

But that is why we have our sandbox. To make our own stuff until he reveals the rest of that sandcastle we all love so much. To pass the time, to have fun with it, to meet new people and find more brilliant little sandcastles. Never again will there be as much creativity, as much activity, as many people around in this sandbox than there is now, in the time before the last bit of his castle is revealed. I am sure most of us will be delighted and surprised at what he will have created. Some will be disappointed because they were expecting his sandcastle to look different, some will be disappointed because they saw a castle in our sandbox they liked much more, but most will be delighted because after all we came up with he will still have managed to surprise us.

Our sandbox. His sandbox.

The two are separated for a reason.

Because if you keep throwing sand into his box to get his attention, or keep trying to get a good look at what he is doing over there, or keep yelling at him to look over to ours and tell you which one looks like the one he is trying to make, or which one is the best, or how stupid one of the others looks (last one would also make you a dick), you are quite simply risking the new part of his sandcastle to collapse. Or for him to have to remake it in a way he didn't plan to, or simply dislikes, or that we will all dislike.

And just because he is glad we are enjoying ourselves and proud that his work inspired us to create all these things, doesn't mean he wants to see (all of) it. Some things he definitely wouldn't want to see; other things the creators definitely don't want him to see.

I'm proud of our sandbox. It's huge. It's brilliant. It's creative. It's collaborative. And it's ours.

Have fun in it. But keep it apart from his. Keep out of his. And keep him out of ours. Stop trying to drag him over. He has stuff to do. Important stuff. Stuff I, for one, am waiting very impatiently for.

And he will never show us the parts of the castle that aren't finished yet, no matter how often you ask. And just because he is making an effort to be funny about it doesn't mean we aren't annoying him when we keep asking.

౨ৎ ⋆｡• vogue beauty secrets 🐰 ๋࣭ ⭑

🎀𓂃 ࣪˖ hair

don't wash your hair every day! i think everybody knows this but i know a couple people who still dont wash their hair only 2-3 times a week. obviously it depends on ur hair type but only wash your hair when it needs it!

don't wash your hair with scalding hot water either. its not only bad for your body and face but its also bad for your hair as it ruins the natural oils and damages cells etc

if you have frizzy or easily knotted hair i recommend keeping a comb on hand in the shower and using it to detangle before putting in any products

i've been emulsifying my shampoo for only a couple of weeks but my hair is sooo much fluffier afterwards so i definitely recommend that!!

now i'm torn on this one but apparently shampooing twice is better for your hair than doing it once? i tried it one time and it did not end well for my hair type but i know it works for a lot of people so if you wanna give it a try then go for it ♡

i squeeze excess water out of my hair before i put in my conditioner so i can completely get it in there without

also change your pillow case often! this is for your face too, as the oils will build up and thats not good for ur hair or face. i change it once a week but 2x a week is good too if you're able 💓

don't go to bed with wet hair. stop doing that. its super bad for your hair and keeping it pretty & fluffy & cute

airdrying is my holy grail, been doing it since i was little and dont regret a thing. its a billion times better than blow drying & makes ur hair so fluffy too ♡

🎀𓂃 ࣪˖ body

DO NOT. HAVE. THE WATER. BOILING HOT. i am guilty of this and have been for years but it has such a bad impact and you shouldnt do it! cold showers are better but i prefer warm showers so theres a middle ground (& its always cold in england, so id freeze to death.)

using body lotion after the shower has been such a game changer for me its incredible. makes you smell nice, feel nice, look nice, and its so relaxing and i feel like a princess after i do it <3

exfoliating is really important if your aim is for soft skin 💓 i have been doing it for months and as somebody with super rough skin its SO soft now

partake in some form of exercise. i hated hated hated sports and exercise when i was younger but i did do dance up until i was eleven and have been doing pilates consistently for months now, and my mindset towards it has changed drastically over the years to finally a healthy one. it can be a difficult thing to get into but make it something you enjoy. it doesn't have to be sports. ill make a post on this soon but it can be pilates, kpop dances, running, hot girl walks, anything! and most importantly, do it for mental health and physical health, not losing weight.

make sure you're eating properly. remember that 2000 - 2500 calories a day is the MINIMUM. please do not stress over things like that. your body is so important & is there to be nourished and not neglected

change your bedsheets every week if you wanna smell good, this is so important bc sweat and odour will build up if u dont and thats icky and wont make u smell good & probably isnt the best for your skin either!

i also put two similar body washes on in the shower that i get SO many compliments on & its really helpful if one of your priorities is smelling good

dont just wash body wash straight off, let it sit for a few moments so the scent can actually sink into ur skin

🎀𓂃 ࣪˖ face

skincare every morning & every night. if ur tired or just not feeling it today then simplify it, just make sure you never leave it out because its super important! no. skipping. no work = no reward.

on this note, try not to have a too complicated skincare routine, as this can backfire and make ur skin worse than before. your skin isnt meant for 18 different products and 200 chemicals every morning!

never wash your face with hot water... this is also a given but just in case... it strips your skin of its natural oils and does more harm than good

stop touching ur face... just for those who need a little reminder

make sure ur sleeping enough. seriously disney princess movies meant it when they talked ab beauty sleep; it seriously makes a difference, so please try make this a priority, especially if you already have dark circles like myself! (like girl did you see aurora's face? my girl's skin was so clear i could see my reflection)

pay attention to what makes ur face puffy or irritated or makes you get break outs. i keep a little break out log in my skincare page in my journal (little teaser for an upcoming post 🤭) and this has helped me go over what helps or hurts my skin! i recommend this especially if ur prone to acne or breakouts 💖

cold spoons in the morning to depuff your eyes; ive only been doing this a handful of times but im making it a habit seeing as it really helps! (as someone who can get vv puffy eyes 😭)

hydration is so important, for everything in this list, but most of all (from my experience) your face! i drink A Lot of water every day. probably a bit too much. but its so worth it, my skin has been absolutely amazing ever since i started actually making hydration a priority. (and this is coming from a girl who didnt touch a drop of water when she was younger & had to go hospital for dehydration several times.)

i'd recommend scrubbing ur lips too in the morning when you brush your teeth, i saw this on pinterest aaages ago bc i had super dry lips and i do it every morning & every night RELIGIOUSLY. its so so good and i definitely recommend

i have super dry lips in the morning so lip balm in the mornings w my skincare is absolutely essential for me

i also put perfume behind my ears & on my neck so its the first thing people smell when they hug me! im a very touchy person and i love hugs and i love showing love to people so this is essential for me but its optional, just makes you smell good ♡

#YEARNING #this is terrible i hate it make it stop #oh [REDACTED] ur just too charming................ 😓 #complicated feelings for ur bestie be like: #'well OF COURSE i love them!!!! but not like that..... wait.. actually.... hmm........' #it's so strange like i Feel Like perhaps the 'queerplatonic' label fits here but i've also never explored what exactly that means To Me #that + the 'kissing the homies' meme unironically #Affectionate Queer Friendships r just built so different & i think that's beautiful even tho it hurts my Society™-poisoned brain #but alsoooo i might just be suppressing Just Romantic feelings bc they're inconvenient/ #i have an antagonistic relationship w my romantic attraction (i hate it & it hates me back <3<3) #FUCK i wish i was aro #i am just naturally v affectionate & loving to my friends in general like why can't that be enough for me ;_; #also something something relationship anarchy #it's all v difficult tho bc also i feel everything Very Intensely & having SOME way of sorting/categorizing/organizing my feelings #is helpful as i try to navigate them #though i could probably do w a healthier/more useful/etc way of doing that #bc obsessing over 'is it plantonic or romantic or something else' has been a Reccuring Thing for me in the past #& i think subconsciously the purpose of that has just been to distract myself from the issue at hand #('i am feeling a STRONG affection for my close friend & a need to express it & i am afraid doing so will cause problems')

Ignore them MF negative thoughts

Don’t label them as intrusive thoughts

THEY DO NOT EXIST

And I’m not just saying that it’s true

It’s soooo fucking true

By labeling them as “intrusive” or “negative” you’re giving them power
