Hogwarts: Springs break.
Day 1: Sky-high (Flying)
A/N: Thanks to the amazing and brilliant @kc-and-co for letting me take part in this writing prompts event! These prompts were absolutely amazing and I hope you guys like the upcoming stories. As always I'll try and keep up to date, but no promises. Enjoy!
Warnings: Fear of flying.
Summary: Madeline goes to new york city for an assignment with the MACUSA. While there, she visits her aunt and her family. And the brothers Jake and Jack ask her to show them how to fly. Let's just say Jake isn't the most excited about it.
It was the spring of 1992. And Moody had decided it would be a good idea to transfer Madeline to the states for a week to help with an assignment the MACUSA was having trouble with. While this meant not seeing Charlie for another two weeks, it did mean she would be seeing her aunt Juliana's Family. So she packed her bags and Moody promptly sent her over.
Once in New York, she was met with an agent of the MACUSA. Wanting to surprise her cousins, aunt and uncle, Madeline kept her visit a secret. And that's how she found herself during the weekend on her aunt's doorstep.
She knocked on the door in a unique rhythm, something only her aunt knew of and waited for a reply. Immediately she heard the crashing of pots and pans and the thud of footsteps. Her aunt then opened the door loudly, panting. A wide smile graced her lips when she saw her only niece standing at the door.
"Madeline! How nice to see you, sweetheart. I didn't know you were in New York! " she said and hugged Madeline tightly.
"Well, Moody decided it was a good idea to ship me over for a mission so I thought why not visit you," Madeline laughed, returning the hug.
"Well, that sounds like Mad-eye to me, couldn't give anyone a break for even a second," Juliana chuckled, shaking her head.
"Now where are my two favourite cousins," Madeline said jokingly. Juliana threw her head back and laughed. She called for the twins.
Madeline walked into the house taking off her coat and putting it on the hanger inside. Suddenly she heard the pounding of footsteps down the stairs and looked at her aunt, who chuckled quietly to herself. Madeline and Juliana looked inside just in time to see Jake tumbling down the stairs excitedly with Jack close behind him.
Their faces immediately lit up with huge grins when they saw their elder cousin standing in the alleyway smiling.
"Madeline" they both yelled excitedly and ran at lightning speed to hug her. Madeline didn't have a second to react before her cousins ran into her and the three of them tumbled to the floor.
Juliana shook her head chuckling to herself and went inside as the three cousins lay on the floor an absolute laughing mess.
"Yes yes, I missed you too boys, but do you think you guys could let me get up?" Madeline said laughing.
Jack moved aside and pulled his brother too in the process. They both helped Madeline get up.
"Now we can do a proper hug," she chuckled, opening her arms to hug her brothers, "bring it in."
Jake and Jack both hugged Madeline hugged her tightly again having missed their sister for 11 months. But the second they let go, Jake grabbed hold of her hand and the twins bombarded her with questions as they pulled her to God knows where.
"So how's your work been? Did you fight dark wizards? Oh oh did you pet a dragon at the reserve? UUU did you see You-Know-who? What spells did you learn? Please please please I wanna know!!!!!!" Jake rambled, tugging Madeline's hand and jumping with excitement.
Jack looked equally excited, his eyes shining with curiosity and eagerness although he kept quiet only chuckling at his brother's antics.
Madeline threw her head back laughing, "Let me take a breath will you, I'll tell you all about the dragons and spells."
The boys didn't listen and kept on asking questions without waiting for Madeline to answer them. And before they knew it, all three were in the backyard. Madeline raised a brow and looked at the boys for an answer. But Jake and Jack shared a look, smirking before letting go of her hand and running off somewhere.
"Hey! Wait up!" Madeline yelled and ran after the boys. She looked around in the yard for them but heard hushed whispers and giggles.
She smirked to herself and slowly tiptoed to where the sounds were coming from and reached the broom shed, which also had uncle Tony's motorbike. She peeked inside and saw the boys excitedly whispering and giggling, and searching for something, possibly their broom. Madeline quietly tiptoed to the front. Giggling, she squalled out loudly, startling the boys. They accidentally jumped but bumped into each other and hit their heads, falling to the ground.
"You boys need to brush up on your stealth skills," Madeline laughed, crossing her hands over her chest as she revealed herself from behind the broom shed.
"That's not faiiiirrrr we weren't expecting it," Jake whined and Jack nodded vigorously in agreement.
"Well that's why it's called the element of surprise isn't it?" Madeline chuckled and helped the boys to their feet, "now what were you two up to huh?"
"Oh, we were just getting our brooms!! We heard you were a smashing chaser so we thought you could teach us quidditch," Jack said excitedly. He quickly sprinted to a corner of the broom shed, where a bunch of brooms, muggle and magical were kept. He shuffled through them while Madeline and Jake waited. Growing more and more impatient for his brother, Jake ushered Madeline outside.
They both waited for a couple of minutes before they heard Jack yell “Found It!”. He then raced outside with three broomsticks in his hand and a giant chest, which Madeline recognised as a quidditch ball set.
“Brilliant! Let’s get to it then,” Madeline rubbed her palms excitedly. She rolled up her sleeves to her elbows and carefully opened the chest.
“Now, do you both, know how to ride a-”
“Yes, we do!” the twins exclaimed, together. Although Jack seemed beyond excited, Jake… not so much.
“And do you know-”
“Yes yes, we know what each ball is, CAN WE JUST PLEASE START ALREADY?” Jack whinnied, already grabbing his broom and sitting on his broom.
“Woah Woah, Jack slow down,” Madeline placed a hand on his shoulder, to slow him down. Jack nodded but seemed to grow more impatient by the minute.
Making sure no muggles were watching, Madeline took out her wand and cast some protection and illusion charm barriers, so that nobody could see them.
“Now we’re ready,” Madeline said and summoned herself a broomstick. It whooshed into her hands and she quickly mounted it, before taking off.
She soared through the air, flying almost 60 meters above the ground. She stopped mid-air as Jake and Jake watched with awe. She turned her and the broom upside down. The young boys gasped, half with blight and half with excitement as Madeline let go of her broom and fell from the skies.
She fell almost to the ground before she hoisted her hand and muttered something. Just in the nick of time, her broom flew right under her and she caught it mid-flight and did a loop the loop. The boys cheered loudly for their sister as she landed on the ground. Jack was jumping with excitement, while Jake was standing looking in awe at his sister.
“Wowza you've GOT to teach us that Madeline!!!” Jack squealed with excitement.
“Why not?! That's what I'm here for. Although Charlie’s sure to beat me, he was the best seeker I had ever seen!” Madeline chuckled, out of breath.
“Really?!?” Jack continued to fire question after question about quidditch at Hogwarts and flying excitedly, and Madeline gladly answered them.
On the other hand, Jake seemed to be unusually quiet. He was always the more excitable the more talkative one. But now, as his younger brother and cousin sister chatted about quidditch and flying he withdrew himself and stood in the background, quietly.
“... And Jake, you ready?” Jake looked startled, having realized he had completely zoned out.
“Hey, are you okay Jake?” Jack asks, concerned.
“Yeah Yeah, I’m good, let's get to it!” Jake said in a rather cheery voice. He then mounted his broom and forced a smile.
Jack looked confidently at Madeline, who smirked and nodded and Jack kicked off with his broom. He hovered a few feet above the ground, waiting for his siblings. Madeline gave Jake one last look, to make sure whether he was ok. She noticed his hands gripping the broom extremely tight but chalked it up to just excitement and she too took off.
“Common Jake, it's amazing here!” Jack yelled attempting to flip his broom upside down.
“You sure, you're ok?” Madeline asked loudly, getting a little concerned. It’s, unlike Jake, to be so… quiet.
Jake inhaled shakily. “You know, it's pretty hot out here, How about we go inside and do this another time?’ Jake chuckled nervously, trying to avoid the subject.
“It’s barely sunny today, let alone hot Jake, Are you sure you're alright?” Madeline asked, starting to get worried.
Jake nodded his head vigorously and tried to convince Madeline and Jack by feigning a smile and showing a thumbs-up sign. Madeline and Jack shared a look of concern before she flew down to where Jake stood and hovered in front of him.
"I don't believe you," Madeline muttered, as she pretended to observe Jake closely when really she was just trying to intimidate him into confessing.
"I-" Jake stuttered, feeling his palms get a little clammy.
"Don't you understand Madeline, Jakey here's nervous about flying."
The three cousins looked at the backyard door, where they saw Juliana leaning on the backyard door frame sipping on her coffee. She had a knowing smirk on her face and had her non-occupied arm placed on her waist.
"MOM!" Jake whinnied and buried his face in his hands.
"Honey, you really didn't think, I wouldn't tell Madeline and your brother would you?" Juliana chuckled, shaking her head dismissively and before Jake could protest she went inside.
"So that's what's been going on, huh?" Madeline raised a brow and smirked teasingly, "never would have thought of you as someone who'd be scared of flying."
"See, this is exactly why I didn't tell you both! You'd tease me to hell!" Jake groaned, annoyed and also embarrassed at his fears being known.
"You really can be weird sometimes Jake," Jack said, now landing his broom next to his brother. He patted his shoulder to show support but clearly Jake thought otherwise.
"Y'all probably just think I'm a pity party," Jake moaned dramatically.
"Hey, no we don't! Everyone has fears, Jake! Not just you and yeah it can be silly to others but-"
"No offence jack, but for someone like you, it's easy to say," Jake said sadly, "you're the second twin and people know you to have fears, but me? People think I'm all brave and stuff but they'll make fun of me when I'm afraid of something as simple as flying a broomstick."
Madeline and Jack shared a look between them, as if having a silent conversation, while Jake continued to douse himself in pity. To be fair, he was the only one pitying himself.
"It's lame, I know", he groaned, not bothering to look up from his hands. When no one said anything, Jake finally looked up and saw the backyard deserted. He looked around confused, trying to spot either Madeline or his twin but saw no one, even up in the sky.
Suddenly, Jake felt a rush of wind fly by and someone seizing him by the waist. He let out a startled yelp as he felt himself flying. He looked down and screamed in fright when he saw that he was hovering a couple of feet above the ground, which, to him felt like a million feet. He tried to wriggle himself free from the glittering ring of magic that hoisted him in the air. He would have continued to scream if he hadn't felt himself being sat upon something which Jake understood to be a broom. He looked around and saw the tall buildings of the city nearby. For a moment he forgot about his predicament and lost himself in the beauty of the cityscape.
That is until the broom jerked itself with a start. Almost like a scared cat, Jake gripped the broomstick tightly, shaking a little.
“See, you’ll get used to it,” Jake whirled his head around and saw his brother Jack and Madeline hovering beside him, smiling.
“I’m pretty sure it’ll take a while,” Jake laughed nervously.
“And we have all the time in the world, Jake,” Madeline said, patting his shoulder with encouragement, “everyone has their fears, and overcoming them can be a challenge, but that doesn't mean we can't overcome them”
“Yeah, and I know you can do it! You’ll be soaring around the city like a quidditch player soon!” Jack encouraged.
Jake’s lips pulled into a smile. He started to feel a small surge of confidence and loosened his grip on the broomstick, carefully. He observed for a minute and saw that the broom floated steadily
“Thanks, you guys,” he said, now feeling a little more confident. And they were right. He would be soaring through the skies soon.

on karamelle, why it sucks, and redeeming azteca's reputation.
I just got to Karamelle for the second time, and good lord. I hadn't forgotten how much I hated it, but it hit me like a wall of bricks. And I'm already preparing myself to marathon it and be fucking done questing here for at least a year.
I think it breaks down like this.
Baby's first workers rights movement/sugary-sweet surveillance state Listen. I know this is a game that doesn't allow for player characters to have much individual impact on the in-game narrative. I know we've had to do errands for cops. I know we work for a war criminal. I KNOW there are flaws in the system. But there's something about the way that Karamelle's set up that makes it all feel so. much. worse. And that's the fact that Karamelle has such a stellar reputation within the Spiral before this. The happiest place in the Spiral, the sweetest treats in the Spiral. Everyone seems to fucking love this place. Almost no one outside of those actually working there seem to understand how corrupt it is. And so the YW is talked down to at every turn, like this is their first exposure to a corrupt environment. And sure, maybe it is within, canon. YW gets isekai'd at a very young age and then made into a child soldier, maybe this is actually the first time in canon that they've been introduced to these concepts. But (and this may just be me) it feels really rude to the player -- who might actually have experience with these ideas -- to make them feel like a fucking idiot with the dialogue options. Karamelle's characters just feel rude.
Oh, so the Gobblers were a fatphobic, Roald Dahl type thing from the start. Cool cool cool. Any of you ever read Roald Dahl's book "The Twits"? It's a very unremarkable story all things considered, except for this bit.
Tumblr media
Aside from Roald Dahl's unavoidable history of antisemitism, does this remind you of anything? Honestly, this reminds me of the Gobbblers.
We first meet the Gobblers around level 10 in Wizard City -- creatures driven by consumption. And then we get to Empyrea and hear that the Alphoi -- skinny "civilized" creatures -- can become Gobblers if they eat too much or are unhealthy in their eating habits. Which makes one of our oldest running enemies a loop-around fatphobic thing, ESPECIALLY when we get to them in Karamelle, the home world of the Gobblers. Rosina, especially, just oozes fatphobia and diet culture. The literal vilification of being fat isn't even subtext, it's just text.
The Old One, The Cabal, and what to do when your escape from the world ends up shoving what you were escaping from right back in your face. When I was in sophomore year of college, fall of 2019, I had one of the worst mental health periods of my life. Antisemitism was fucking everywhere, I was always a moment away from a panic attack, and it felt like no one understood. While I'm lucky in the fact that I was able to get an official diagnosis for genetically inherited PTSD, alongside the reassurance that I wasn't fucking crazy, there was a period when I just needed to go home for a moment. So when I was going back to my dorm from the dining hall to make sure all my stuff was ready to go, I opened up tumblr and made a post on a long-gone RP sideblog I had for the Swedish Chef (y'know, from The Muppets? long story), and before I'd even gotten halfway across campus, I'd received threatening and violent messages from someone RPing as Borat, which only got worse when they realized they were talking to an actual Jewish person.
That escape from reality didn't even last five fucking minutes before the horrors I was trying to avoid found me.
Now, Wizard101 has always been a source of comfort for me. I made my account fourteen years ago, and I do not know what my life would look like if I hadn't done that. There are flaws with this game, yes, sure, but over the past five years (since I got a wiz compatible laptop) I've developed a bit of a reliance on it to get me through the horrors. No better form of escapism.
But no art form is free of the horrors.
And Wizard101 has the fucking Cabal and Old One.
The Cabal within the fiction of Wizard101 is a secret, nefarious organization pulling the strings on events across the Spiral, controlling history from the shadows. This term literally originates in antisemitic conspiracy theory, with the term 'cabal' originating from the term for Jewish mysticism, 'kabbalah'. And I promise you, you've heard plenty of applications of this conspiracy theory in real life too. It feeds into the idea that Jews (or 'global elite') control the government, the media, the banks.
And then, we get to the man in control of it all. The Old One. Whether or not this was intended, he's a walking, talking antisemitic caricature. The octopus as a symbol for the mythical Elders of Zion is a longstanding dogwhistle (see attached for a guide to this and many other visual dogwhistles). "Oh, he's based on H.P. Lovecraft-" So he's based on the works of a famous racist and antisemite, cool cool cool.
It's just exhausting, walking through a world that is so clearly modeled after Germany and other parts of eastern Europe, and finding antisemitism around every corner. And even more exhausting considering it's almost impossible to tell if they meant to do it. Antisemitism is so fucking ingrained in the world at this point that I don't actually know what they meant to do here, what they did maliciously or out of ignorance, or if any of it was put in with the purpose of turning it on its head. Over the past few years, it has become glaringly obvious that a lot of people don't realize when they're running across antisemitism, or even taking part in it. Including people I really thought would know better.
Side note. For those of you who know I see Dasein as Jewish, you may be wondering how I balance that out with the antisemitic nature of The Old One, since they share a physical form. I think of it like this. Dasein did not choose The Old One. He did not choose to resemble that, but he can attempt to reclaim it. Dasein's Judaism comes not from the resemblance he holds to the hatred that haunts us, but from the love that keeps us going. He questions authority and longstanding tradition, chooses to do what's right instead of what's expected, and is kind in the face of hatred. He literally makes himself, and a world, out of nothingness. Something out of Nothing. He's so Jewish you guys.
The Spiral's "Worst World Award" goes to... I know we all say "fuck Azteca" pretty often on this website, but I don't think it deserves to be deigned the worst world in Wiz. My main gripe with Azteca is how inaccessible it gets after Xibalba strikes -- the flashing lights aren't exactly photosensitive friendly. Which further lends frustration to my completionist nature, meaning I have to finish all quests, badges, and fishing before I finish the world (making it take forever to finish). Aside from that, there really isn't that much wrong with the world (and if you argue that it sucks because you can't save Azteca, I get it, but some tragedies are inescapable by their very nature). It's a problem of gameplay, versus a problem of plot in the case of Karamelle. And maybe its just because I'm a writer, but problems with plot feel much more egregious. I really do think Karamelle deserves more vitriol than it gets.
G-d, I can't wait to get to Lemuria.

Just stumbled across this blog today, and I just have to say THANK YOU for your posts about how Wolfstar doesn't work in-universe and how messed up Sirius' fandom-feminization is. I love both characters but they have no romantic chemistry at all. The marauders were very much written as mainly friends of James. I literally had the thought the other day that Sirius trusted Peter more than he trusted Remus during the first war, and even during the second war it feels like they barely interact unless they have to. Remus is even described as being bitterly envious of Sirius' ability to attract women in supplemental materials and all of his off-screen moments he's either trying to establish contact with werewolf packs or establishing his relationship with Tonks.
I've been trying to find good posts to reblog to an RP blog I made shipping Sirius with an OC and the endless parade of hyper-feminine-Sirius have me rolling my eyes. Like, he's maybe the type to paint his nails and wear lipstick for a laugh once or twice but a fully beat face as a daily look? Not his style, even before prison. And the full-sleeve millenial/gen z style tattoos look nice, but on a man who was a teen in the 70s? Please stop, fandom.
Sorry for writing you a whole-ass book, I felt like I was taking crazy pills for a minute there. Thank you for a much-needed sanity check. Also marauders fandom has hurt me because the past few weeks I've been looking for off-brand Sirius Black merchandise (I will never buy official again) and every indie storefront has just been endless stickers and prints of one line from one slow-burn marauders-era wolfstar fanfic.
(For those people hate-reading this blog and chomping at the bit to call me homophobic and transphobic, I'm a trans man and the OC I ship Sirius with is also a man, hope you have a day as lovely as you are)
My dude. Thank you. You deserve a million lovely days. Forever. And Ever.
AU, OOC, do Wolfstar. Do not try to sell me canon or "canon compliant" Wolfstar. It is dead on arrival.
I like reimagining Marauders for modern day but with a big OOC AU sticker on it. Marauders = Boomers. RIP Regulus, you would've loved Brexit. RIP Remus, you would have loved using wizard facebook instead of wizard google.
Same w/off brand Lupin merch. I love Lupin, hate Etsy covered in that line.
Sirius w/the right man is perfection. Lupin is the wrong man.
You are a gem. Stay sane out there, my man.

Harry Potter Roleplay Discord Server ✨OPEN NOW✨
I cannot believe it has taken me this long, but hey, I've never put a discord server together before. To anyone who has messaged me requesting an invite, I will be sending links your way very very soon! Make sure to message me requesting a link if you haven't done so already!
To anyone who has not heard about this server before:
This will be a advlit rp server that currently has all canon characters available. There is much more info on the server itself but I've left a brief synopsis of the plot for people to gauge interest here first. If this sounds like something you'd be interested in, send me a message to join the server!
Plot summary: 
Lord Voldemort has been defeated. The Second Wizarding War is over. The Ministry of Magic has convened and decided that the population of the Wizarding Society of Britain is in danger. For too long before the war, witches and wizards have struggled to bear more magical children, and even fewer witches and wizards are being born to muggles. Hence, the Marriage Law.
The Ministry deems it necessary to ensure the future of the Magical Population by expediting what, in their eyes, would happen anyways. So the law is set forth, all witches and wizards of marriageable age must be paired, one man and one woman, to be married and have at least one child. The Ministry sets forth a timeline all of Britain's Wizarding Population must adhere to and that includes the seventh years at Hogwarts.
Even the returning students of Harry Potter's year, who have been asked to return to the school for a final year so they may receive their final year of magical training and take their NEWT exams.
And so Harry Potter and his friends, and possible enemies, return to Hogwarts, joining the students of the last sixth year, to be come seventh years once more, except this time they're all engaged.
Join Harry Potter - Marriage Law AU for more info.

"The Noble House of Black"
@orionsdaughter
Harry Potter RP / NSFW
Amanda Wellesley was one of the smartest witches of her age. A house prefect and head girl from Ravenclaw several years ahead of Lily Evans the two of them were bright stars and model proofs that muggle borns without an once of magical blood could be the pride of their school and as good as any pure blood witch.
During the first war she had fought off several assassination attempts while working for the ministry and ended up working Department of Magical Law Enforcement bringing cases before the Wizengamot. She was known as calm and relentless and after the fall of the Dark Lord in the first war it was in her young hands that the Lestrange trial was handed.
The symbolism was irresistible to her bosses.
And it would be 17 years later to others in the same position. Her arrest made the Daily Prophet. A picture of her in irons and a headline about how she was to be put on trial for the magic she had stolen. The only defense she could have would be to prove there was some wizard in her family tree or she would face the same prison that she had sent others too.

very excited for the acoc prequel. matt & brennan have a thing for intense tragedy prequels when swapping seats.
also that table composition is just *chef’s kiss*. lou, aabria, & brennan for the oops all dms factor. anjali bringing a gorgeous pc with no doubt a lot of drama on the rp side(i saw that uvano reference. the noble of the party). zac playing a stinky little asshole and hopefully getting to keep him for the entire time. i want to see him really get into the meat of the intrigue.
i do think the choice to shift the focus from candia is a good one. while we obviously didn’t get to see everything there, i think the tonal shift will be good for matt’s first time dming in the dome. his style works better with a little less chaos than brennan or even aabria usually contends with. plus this feels like a party that’s not quite as heavy on the nobility. acoc definitely had a focus on the royal house of candia--this just gives a different perspective on calorum and a way to get into lore we probably have had little insight into as of yet.
this gives us the option to really get into the bulbian church lore, a way to get a good look at the meatlands that we didn’t have in acoc, the underside of comida, and maybe a look at the fructeran nobility beyond the uvanos & of course, thad.
in terms of how related it is to the main campaign i’m going to guess it’s something like pirates of leviathan as opposed to the seven. none of these characters were npcs in acoc, but we could have the potential to run into the younger versions of some characters, the way we encountered garthy, ayda, and jamina in pol.
definitely feeling pretty stealth focused/lower magic as a party. looking at what’s under the surface at the start of the ravening war. as they are the scrumptious scoundrels, i think for classes we’re looking at 2 or more rogues, a fighter, a cleric, and a maybe bard based on the art. my guesses:
lou’s being the party tank again--some kind of melee class, leaning fighter more than barb but maybe a combination. maybe a touch of paladin
aabria’s got something going on with mixed melee & magic--arcane trickster rogue, hexblade warlock, maybe a little bit of hungry one monk energy, something to that end.
brennan said i’m bringing a cleric to keep all y’all alive, and he’s really going in on the old man. he said i came to be goofy as fuck. granted his name is raphaniel charlock. maybe brennan’s pulling a lapin and really leaning into the name. maybe he’s throwing us all off with the title and playing a wizard. idk
really feeling rogue from zac. he’s settled into it a lot in his last few seasons from skip to pib. with his warlocks he tends to go sneaky/darker as well. colin provolone just seems like a con man. there’s also a lot of bottles in his background--maybe an alchemist? washed up alchemist artificer seems to fit the vibe as well.
anjali’s character looks hot and seems noble, so i’m guessing charisma caster with lots of bonuses to persuasion/deception. she’s a lady--eloquence or lore bard feels likely, maybe whispers for the politicking. granted she could do a lot of that with a rogue as well--we might specifically have an oops all rogues/rogue-adjacent party.
anyway. i’m very excited about this. based on the number of aabria outfits i think we’re looking at a 6 ep season to cool off from neverafter. granted these scenes are all likely from the first 3 or so episodes, so it might be longer, might not.
edit: i wrote this before i read the faq and it is definitively a 6 episode season. i think they’re getting into a pattern of alternation between ih seasons and sidequests: intrepid heroes run for a 17-20 episode season from late fall-spring, then a 4-6-ep sidequest for a buffer going into the summer, then a 10 ep sidequest going summer to fall, and start back up with the intrepid heroes again. i think this is likely to be a pattern going forward as they straighten out from the disruption of covid and fully shift to battleset/dome seasons.

i'm looking for someone to write some harry potter rp centered in the marauders era.
particularly...
• regulus black / james potter.
with me writing as regulus black. my idea for the plot was after the first wizarding war, so they're off hogwarts. i wanted to try some enemies to lovers, shameless smut and dark, jaded characters after the war with baby harry included in their future family !! nsfw and kinks to be discussed, but as a heads up i prefer writing regulus as a bottom in that sense.
like this if you're interested and i'll contact you! x
like if you're interested and op will reach out

Brand New Harry Potter RP Discord Server!
Hey! I’m Paige, 21F, and I just opened up my very first RP server! It’s an 18+ advanced literate server set post golden era, so directly after the war, thus dark and disturbing themes may be depicted and discussed.
Currently, ALL CHARACTERS ARE AVAILABLE. OCs will be accepted as well.
Here’s a brief plot summary and you can find much more info on the server itself:
Lord Voldemort has been defeated. The Second Wizarding War is over. The Ministry of Magic has convened and decided that the population of the Wizarding Society of Britain is in danger. For too long before the war, witches and wizards have struggled to bear more magical children, and even fewer witches and wizards are being born to muggles. Hence, the Marriage Law. The Ministry deems it necessary to ensure the future of the Magical Population by expediting what, in their eyes, would happen anyways. So the law is set forth, all witches and wizards of marriageable age must be paired, one man and one woman, to be married and have at least one child.

Brand New Harry Potter RP Discord Server!
Hey! I’m Paige, 21F, and I just opened up my very first RP server! It’s an 18+ advanced literate server set post golden era, so directly after the war, thus dark and disturbing themes may be depicted and discussed.
Here’s a brief plot summary and you can find much more info on the server itself:
Lord Voldemort has been defeated. The Second Wizarding War is over. The Ministry of Magic has convened and decided that the population of the Wizarding Society of Britain is in danger. For too long before the war, witches and wizards have struggled to bear more magical children, and even fewer witches and wizards are being born to muggles. Hence, the Marriage Law. The Ministry deems it necessary to ensure the future of the Magical Population by expediting what, in their eyes, would happen anyways. So the law is set forth, all witches and wizards of marriageable age must be paired, one man and one woman, to be married and have at least one child. The Ministry sets forth a timeline all of Britain's Wizarding Population must adhere to and that also means the seventh years at Hogwarts. Including the returning students of Harry Potter's year, who have been asked to return to the school for a final year so they may receive their final year of magical training and take their NEWT exams. And so Harry Potter and his friends, and possible enemies, return to Hogwarts, joining the students of the last sixth year, to be come seventh years once more, except this time they're all engaged.

Noxhq is a au marauders era roleplay set in 1978 that explores the challenges of being a student while living through the first Wizarding War. It is semi-canon, meaning you as the writer have the flexibility of using pre-existing characters and making them your own. All characters will be 18+ (Year 8 - 12) as the rp may contain dark and mature subject matters.

Sunshine and Shadows // Closed RP
@brothershardy​
Tumblr media
The first part of the Riddle War ended in one fell swoop, when Lord Voldemort went to a quaint little country wizarding village intending to eliminate a perceived threat....who was a child. Not just a child, a toddler, no older than Draco had been, and his father’s master really did go to murder that boy in his crib. It did not go well for him. Or for the Potters, but his downfall was a silver lining.
Draco grew up knowing that it couldn’t be permanent. His father was certain of Riddle’s one-day return, and careful in hiding or “surrendering” the Dark artefacts that he was going to need when that day came. Narcissa turned a blind eye, wanting it to all just go away. Draco didn’t know which side to be on, and settled for staying quiet on the subject of Tom “Voldemort” Riddle until he was of age to attend Hogwarts himself.
Somehow, he hadn’t really considered that the Boy Who Lived was his age, and therefore would be in his year at school. Draco did not register that until he was standing on a fitting stool in Madam Malkin’s robe shop, and looked up to see the next student who came along, tracking over unruly strawberry blond hair, big green eyes behind round glasses....and a rather incredible, one-of-a-kind scar pattern peeking out from beneath his messy fringe.
Joseph Potter was coming to Hogwarts.
Draco had rather bunged up that first meeting, unintentionally letting Lucius’ attitude shine through as he struggled to figure out what kind of person the Boy Who Lived was. He really hadn’t meant to sound so elitist, or to insult either the giant gamekeeper, or the rather tired-looking wizard who were accompanying Joe to get his school supplies.
Bugger it all, he put his foot in his mouth. Draco regretted that the rest of the day as Narcissa took him to finish shopping, and then they went to meet the Parkinsons, Notts, and Blaise and his mother for dinner in the city.
September first found King’s Cross busy with poorly-disguised wizarding families shuffling their kids to Platform 9 3/4, unless they had Ministry connections to Floo directly to the platform. Draco was among those, Narcissa fussing over his travel cloak and Lucius looking about pompously, and he was absently feeding Orion a final mouse to keep him content for the journey when he spotted the same blond mop of hair.
Joe was struggling to get his trunk onto the train. Draco watched, torn--but then a taller boy appeared, noticing Joe’s dilemma and catching his eye. "Want a hand?"
"Yes, please," Draco heard Joe pant.
"Oy, Fred! C'mere and help!" A clone of him walked over, and with the twins' help, Joe's trunk got onto the train. Draco watched the twins talk briefly to Joe--but then their mother, it could only be so with that matching red hair, called them back to her.
“Best board now, my love,” Narcissa murmured, and Draco nodded, hurrying to give his trunk to a conductor and join Pansy in heading onto the Hogwarts Express. They joined Theo and Blaise, through him Draco met a pair of bulky lads called Crabbe and Goyle--he knew their surnames, knew they’d been in with his father, and Voldemort--and eventually the train slid out of the station.
“Did you hear?” Theo asked with amusement. “The Potter is on board.”
“Yes, I saw him,” Draco confirmed. “That’s going to be interest to play out.” In the passageway, he heard voices, someone asking if a toad had been spotted, and Draco watched a miserable-looking boy trudge past with a curly-haired girl who had an aura of bossiness to her. “Right, who’s up for Exploding Snap?”

So what is "A Crow's Tale" about?
“A Crow’s Tale” is a story that takes place in a modern fantasy world, with the base of it being very reminiscent of that of DND (Dungeons and Dragons), but those whimsical and fantastical days of adventures through enchanted forests or fiery wastelands had ended abruptly years ago when the pantheons had suddenly vanished and all doorways into the inner and outer worlds had closed, causing magic to weaken with it. Several world wars have occurred, three to be exact, and the world struggled for some time until it finally began to industrialize, using a mix of technology and old arcane tricks. Since the first few eons of industrialization, magic has since depleted from the world.
Or so people think
The main story takes place in the city-state of Great Aelton, a large city sitting on the coast of Phavaria, one of the many continents scattered across the northern hemisphere. Taking the perspective of a group of college kids who unintentionally become part of an ongoing murder investigation that unravels into a web of paranormal and supernatural mysteries, later uncovering that someone is trying to bring magic back, gifting unfaithful individuals the power that only warlocks or wizards could once possess, and creating horrible monsters. But there are secrets buried within the layers of these mysterious events, and it's now their job to uncover them before it's too late (This was partially taken from my rp blog but its the best summary I can provide) I really want to make a comic series out of it with a bunch of my ocs and character designs I've made but haven't really had a place to put them (until now)

Welcome to my Rp canon/headcanons maybe AU? mainly focused on Kamek and king boo aka the ancient beings of the Mario universe
First off big thing I gave a big 5000 year timeline for kamek because I essentially made him a immortal being because He studied vigorously in ancient times from age 15 to 34 on making a immortality potion at 34 he did drink that potion and forever looks the same as back then other than new scars or clothes choice.
Kamek is a much older type of koopa we’ll call it feral koopa or just Ancient koopas. he is unsure if there’s any other of his type though in a few very opinionated history books from the old blue toad emperor their name is shown as the feral,Savage,Barbaric Koopa. But later on the telling of the 2 Koopa wars he was in was more accurate. Kamek was hatched a few years after the 1st war of the 3 koopa/mushroom wars in history.
a few tell of sightings of this strange koopa in the Red heart Forest which is known for its pulsating trees that glow red.
Prince boo of the past one of the two princes of the long gone spirit kingdom him being the oldest and the younger being prince Roo. He use to act very Noble playing the acting role of the perfect prince he did protect his citizens the best he could but he still had many traits of the current king boo we see nows personality hidden underneath
Now Kamek similarity acted much more arrogantly in the past with a love for combat and a dislike of any kind of monarchy oh and if anyone were to truly see the list of his past actions they would never think of that Crazy but polite old koopa in a wizards cloak of the current days,but that was nowhere to be seen for another few thousand years.
In the very far past king boo who was back then alive called prince boo till he turned 20 and kamek had studied in the wizard tower together before they both graduated at 16. Oddly enough they were pretty close friends if not both a little messed up constantly playing pranks and scaring each other. One of the very few people kameks instincts let him care about.
The wizard tower in ancient times was a school to learn magic only royal family’s kids or students chosen to be let in by all of the instructors could get in. Prince boo being one of the spirit kingdoms royals the one in line for the throne and kamek being the young cryptid he is broke through the magic barriers at 5 years old and get accepted as worthy to keep around before that 5 years kamek was hatched in that red heart forest and had survived like any other would eating raw meat.
The wizard professors were quite corrupt if you hadn’t geuss already first off they always have the royal kids under watch as they teach magic/make them redo the dirty work. Secondly they withold information and resources which they completely keep for themselves. Also sending kids out to die because it’s a funny game to them oh how surprised they’d get to see a few students surviving but also delighted to see many not coming back.
They took all of the wizard professors trials though each one more suspicious than the last starting from gathering magical herbs the students could never get their hands on in any other place to Hunting down magical creatures for their materials the last trial being to get a part off a dragon. If you died or were in danger none of the instructor wizards would help a student after all that was “beneath them”
After the graduation Kamek killing a dragon (shhh don’t tell anyone it was a old passing away dragon) with his magic infused knuckle bracers which may or may not have been allowed the rules were unclear kamek actually felt guilty when he had some time to think to himself “… their sentient why did non of the books or wizards mention that” and Prince boo bringing back 2 green dragon wings proudly bringing them back home to hang on a wall.
Things started to take a turn someway somehow prince roo had created a rift between Boo and Kamek using boos care for his younger sibling against him convincing him kamek was a danger to him and the entire spirit kingdom.
which led to king boo threatening kamek “If I ever see you anywhere near my kingdom your head will be put on a Pike” normally this wouldn’t bother kamek so much from anyone else in the current times but this was the only person he had found to actually have any care for. Kamek was shocked wanted to say something but couldn’t he went away after seeing the look in prince boos eyes.
After all of the other now graduated students went home to there royal families. Kamek had a plan so he pretended to leave the magic tower then scoped everything out. After all he can’t just let unchecked power happen any longer especially since he learned what he needed already. “Oh who cares about reasons *cackles* there’s nothing like a good prank right.”
That’s right he demolished the wizard tower watchin the chaos as it crumbled. when it’s defenses just weren’t high enough because of graduation day.
Age 16 information complete feel free to ask questions im not a good writer for stories but I do enjoy making lore.
