23.5 Episode 7
Looks like Sun and Ongsa are entering the mutual awkwardness stage of their relationship. We love to see it. Now it's not just Ongsa being an epic dork and I love that for the both of them.
Okay but I also love Sun flirting and knowing just how cute Ongsa finds her. Both are good.
Pffft oh Charoen. She wants to look at Sun. In that way I guess it's bad feng shui.
Okay Tin lbr here. Ongsa as a cheerleader? I love her and she's way prettier than she thinks, but she also has the coordination of a newborn fawn.
I swear to god if she becomes a cheerleader and thus loses the glasses to do it I will scream. Let the girl keep her glasses!
Sun the flirt is hilarious I love her.
HA oh please Aylin don't play. You know you like it when Luna is around.
Sun is really working herself up towards the top of my list right now she's hilarious. Honestly I love all these girls, they're just great.
They're taking it slow dammit! Which hopefully means that they'll be making out before the ep is over.
Thank you Alpha. Ongsa needed that smack.
Ooh a wild Sun appears. And she's jealous, isn't she? That is adorable. I bet the only two who don't know and didn't expect this are Ton and Ongsa, lol.
Annoying mosquito! DYING.
Then again maybe he does. But I don't think so. Although I think he might be clueing in the longer we go on. Poor little himbo discovering gay people are everywhere.
This show was brought to you by Loreal!
I'm just loving this theme of liking people for wo they are and not for who they could or should be. And I think that Ongsa especially tends to forget that Sun fell for her over Insta. That said, I'm glad no one but Ongsa is pretending she isn't gorgeous.
KISS KISS KISS
OH don't you fucking fake me out with this show I will fight you.
DAMMIT SHOW we're fighting now. We are in a fight.
Let the lesbians kiss come on it's episode 7 there'd be at least one in a BL by now. I know we're going for cutesy here but they can still kiss dammit.
Ongsa: looks pretty much the same as always
Everyone: You're so pretty today!!
Okay show. Well at least she seems to be keeping her glasses.
Lol Sun is gonna murder Ton.
They are gonna set up a TonGharoen thing aren't they? Sigh. Boo I was hoping she'd hook up with Alpha. Gay all the way down baby.
"I don't think Sun likes my new look."
Ongsa. Girl.
You know what I will take my AylinLuna crumbs. I hope to see more of them next ep.
And there go the glasses. I really hope they don't stay gone though I will cry. Real tears.
She does look absolutely lovely though. Not that she isn't gorgeous anyway but you know what I mean. The outfit suits her.
Jealous!Sun is great. More, I say.
I love how everyone is just enjoying the hell out of poor Sun's misery.
Oh ha. Okay Ton is definitely in on this. He totally just got shooed over to interrupt. I would take back the jokes about how dumb he is, but I don't wanna.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Well okay, then. I'm not thinking Ongsa will mind in the least.
Okay damn Sun is on a roll here. Go girl! Get your girlfriend and get her now.
Does this mean I'm gonna get my kiss?
Aw Sun's poor friends. Last to know.
"My plan" he says. His plan my entire ass. We all know that was all Alpha and Luna. But this is why I think that I can't dislike the dude even though the self-obsessed character type usually puts me off a bit. He doesn't have a mean bone in his giant body.
OOOOH next week we're getting more AylinLuna and some crumbs for the teachers too???
I LOVE THIS SHOW.

fic rec list: 15 het Remus rare ships
aka not remadora, not gay remus, but a secret third (fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh) option
okay so i totally played myself here: this started out as a cracky spite reclist, but i should have known better… i may now have fifteen new ships.
seriously, they’re legitimately good. SO many good reads.
the list: remus/hermione, remus/lily, remus/minerva, remus/trelawney, remus/poppy, remus/petunia, remus/narcissa, remus/bellatrix, remus/fleur, remus/pansy, remus/cho, remus/luna, remus/ginny, remus/lavender, remus/andromeda.
bonus: several remus HP poly ships, and several excellent buffy the vampire slayer crossovers: remus/jenny calendar and remus/faith lehane.
---
1. remus/hermione
look. i don’t just have a fic rec for this. i have a rec for a ship manifesto (original link | wayback machine) and rec list (LJ comm het-reccers | wayback machine)
Because of the slim canon interaction and the many obstacles to writing the pairing, it’s often done badly. But I think when it’s done well, it’s done very well; a writer who can keep the two characters true to the Remus and Hermione that we know and still write a convincing relationship between them tends to be a good writer. Consequently, there are some real gems among the fandom. In conclusion, yes, this is difficult to write and indeed to get your head around. But done well, it can be challenging, thought-provoking, fluffy, angsty, dark and hot. Often all at the same time. And in a fandom that ships cephalopods, this can only be a good thing.
first entry on that reclist is a ~10k E-rated fic titled after a shakespeare sonnet, and the rec begins:
This is by far my favorite fic in any fandom or ship. It's a beautiful story that depicts how these two characters slowly weave into each other.
the second entry has implied past wolfstar, and there’s fic by both setissma and musesfool on the list.
2. remus/lily
holy fuck this ship blindsided me with the angst and tragedy!! mwpp era writers, why are you Like This.
The Day After by violet_quill (1k, E). canon compliant, november the first, 1981, adultery. the repeating motif of street trash hurts me.
He doesn't think about how he doesn't like coffins anymore than he likes bars; he doesn't wonder who has the worse fate. He tries not to remember that he will be the only one left to put flowers on the graves. He doesn't think about James either.
bonus shoutouts to:
No Harm, But No Certain Good by victoria_p (musesfool) (1k, M), hogwarts era secret relationship, uhea as fuck
The Bowl Of Lilacs by copperbadge (12k, M), first war to eventual remus raises harry au, more plotty/remus-centric than shippy, but the remus/lily is both on page and significant
3. remus/minerva mcgonagall
two excellent poa fics:
The Ten Month Career of Professor R. J. Lupin by pauraque (3k, T):
He raised his hand to knock, but stopped halfway, caught in the shadow of decision. All during the long, hazy summer he'd thought of this, of what he should say, of how he should act.
god, i love this remus. the reminerva and sevinerva (yes, i did just invent these) love triangle is so beautifully woven!
A Year In The Life by copperbadge (41k, T): what a love affair! loved exploring a faculty romance through the eyes of these two, and the ending was so painfully drawn out! the Rent lyrics!!!
4. remus/sybil trelawney
two more POA with perfectly characterized dramatic trelawney, who Sees and is completely, hilariously wrong with her interpretation -- i adore this trope sm.
The Baby in the Pumpkin Patch & Other Stories by @evesaintyves: Chapter 3: The Seer, the Bell Jar, and the Packet of Crisps (~2k, G)
Black With a Tail by @paulamcg (500, G)
5. remus/poppy pomfrey
Take Care of Yourself by @patriceavril (8k, M), a lost years/pre-POA remus/poppy. so soft and tender, the little peter HC and the briefcase HC :') never gets old!
6. remus/petunia
A Different Fate by lordhellebore (6.5k, T): remus and petunia raise dudley and a disabled harry au, in 65 x 100-word drabbles. fluffy, angsty, a surprisingly wholesome take on this pairing!
7. remus/narcissa
Disparities by @puuvillaa (2.5k, M). first war fic, yummy hatesex, who is using who?
Fallen Stars by @siriusly-sapphic (4k, T): hogwarts-era alternative sorting slytherin remus au is such a good setup for this pairing!
8. remus/bellatrix
lots of intriguing takes on this pairing!
Bellatricked by Ellen Smithee (ellensmithee) (800, E): dark remus lupin, er, snuff.
What the Moon Revealed by Maria_de_Salinas (2k, E): can’t go wrong with a good first war hatesex!
Before the Veil by Donna_Immaculata (4k, E): more snuff fic hahaha. implied wolfstar, established snupin
worth mentioning that this pairing is not ALL snuff fic -- there’s a surprising amount of soft!bellatrix -- but tbh i liked these better.
9. remus/fleur
before marrying bill, fleur wants to make sure she is… Riding The Real Thing by snapealina (2k, E).
there’s also an interesting muggle art camp counselor/camper au (5k, M)!
10. remus/pansy
Pruddy's Inn by littlealex (2k, E): post-canon au, ahhh gorgeous '00s era fic.
Pansy's legs disentangle themselves from around Remus' shoulder and arm, and Remus collapses on top of her, unable to support his own weight. She sighs contentedly and threads her fingers through his hair, her eyes still shut firmly against reality. What good is reality, she muses, if I can just pretend to get what I want?
11. remus/cho
The Heart by bloodsugarlove (7k, T). teacher/student told from teacher pov is always fascinating and the prose in this one is unique and lovely! note: doesn’t warrant the underage warning, no whiff of underage sex anywhere.
It's something of a scandal that Cho is seeker for Ravenclaw; many girls appear threatened by this, though they can't deny that is is rather decent at the position. Boys think it is fascinating, and Chang herself is arrogant in the most charming way. Not that Mr. Lupin really thinks so, mind you; it's a collective opinion, and anyway he has had quite his fill of arrogance. He has had quite his fill of a lot of things. He would really rather think of something else.
12. remus/luna
Stubby Boardman and the Cacao Bean by kestrelsan (2k, G), a remix fic!!! loved the original drabble and it was so cool to see it expanded into this oneshot.
honestly this is a real quality ship! in addition to all the delicious smutty kink fic that’s all over the ship tag, there’s also:
this postwar perfection -- he was learning what was real: like Heliopaths and Snorcacks and love! -- Bearing Fruit by @paulamcg (2k, M),
this creaturehunting mission fic, with multiple pieces of fanart, created for @hpdrizzle fest 2017: The Naturists by hikorichan (9k, T)
and this lovely post-canon get-together -- Anytime by @nanneramma (1k, T) -- the seasonal pacing works so well for this nature-connected pairing!
13. remus/ginny
The Meaning of Restraint by Darsynia (4k, M): caught in a club and i’m not even underage! stellar vibes and dynamic here.
open my heart (let it bleed onto yours) by @lunapwrites (~20k (wip), E) -- a fascinatingly, wonderfully explored postwar marriage law au!
14. remus/lavender
Big Teeth/Little Red by PacificRimbaud (5k, M): oh my god this was utterly delightful. it’s a library meet-cute and a halloween party and the age differences, hahaha. a ton of age gap pairings here -- harry/pansy is the only one that is not, iirc.
While he tugs at the cap, he wonders at the audacity of living one’s life as Sirius Black. What must it be like: to understand the line between being a man who has bad ideas, and being a bad man? To gleefully ride along the edge of it, to toss away all but your own discernment, to simply do what you would like to do so long as no one’s being harmed, to not worry about what your desires say about you, to call your godson’s half-dressed former girlfriend a bad idea to her waggishly smiling face at your kitchen table and to let yourself bask in the fallout, sated like a wolf that's helped itself to a lamb. A— …big bad wolf…
15. remus/andromeda
Shelter at Your Door by starfishstar (13k, T): an andromeda doesn’t elope, marries and later leaves lucius au. the r/a relationship in this au is so well-written, their compatibility is so lovely, and although tonks is never born in this au, the r/t echoes are deliciously haunting!
"So," she said softly, pressing down against him, and Remus, following instinct at last, arched to meet her. "Are we doing this?" "Yes," Remus agreed, a whisper in her ear. "We're doing this." Careful not to sound judgemental about it, Andromeda asked, "Have you done this before?" With Remus and his insistence that everything about himself was dangerous and not to be allowed, it was difficult to know. He gave a self-deprecating laugh. "Yeah. Couple of times." "Oh?" she teased, still gentle. "What happened to being too dangerous for anything beyond friendship?" Remus' mouth made a wry twist. "It found itself on a collision course with being nineteen years old and horny, that's what happened to it."
---
a bonus: if anyone's taking notes, i couldn’t find fic for:
remus/olympe maxime,
remus/myrtle warren,
remus/the grey lady
remus/parvati or remus/padma patil,
remus/rita skeeter in english,
remus/angelina aside from the remus x gryffindor chaser sandwich,
remus/millicent bulstrode that was not a crossover,
remus/rose weasley or remus/victoire (there's a bunch of remus/lily luna all written by one author)
not to mention literally any creaturefic at all -- remus/basilisk? remus/nagini? remus/mrs norris? remus/hedwig? y’all, i’m disappointed. there was one remus/crookshanks [chapter 21].
---
bonus recs:
remus/hermione/ginny/luna, a nice lovely fluffy fun (E-rated) romp
remus/pomona/hagrid: "You see, I was thinking if you fucked this plant in werewolf form, we could get a beautiful crossbreed for dear Ru's birthday next month."
bonus bonus recs:
+1. remus/jenny calendar from buffy the vampire slayer
Weighed Down With Good Intentions by Thistlerose (8k, M):
"And your friends? Come on, Remus. You had to have had some. Outgoing, personable guy like you." Her tone was light, the kiss she pressed against the corner of his mouth playful. "They're dead too," he said, his smile fading. "All of them. There were never many," he added when she looked at him, her eyebrows raised. "Three. Four. One turned out not to be a friend after all." "And he – or she – " "He." "Is he dead too?" "Prison," Remus said. He closed his eyes and saw Sirius's face instead of Jenny's. Rough black hair, storm-colored eyes, lightning smile. Grease under fingernails. How many different kinds of lightning had he discovered that summer?
jfc this is GENIUS. the references to both BTVS and HP, the intertwining of both stories — it’s canon compliant to both, afaik, except for the bit where remus survives the second war to have that very last conversation — and holy shit that very last cameo!!!
+2. remus/faith lehane from btvs/ats
The Intent To Be Lost by voleuse (1.5k, T), post-Chosen, an encounter with a stranger.
"You could meet me again." She raises her eyebrows, leers a little. He rises from the floor, his body casting a lean shadow on the carpet. "Perhaps," he murmurs, idly running his fingers around his wrist. Faith shrugs again, but pauses before she exits. "You should," she hesitates. "You should be careful out there. At night." He's strong, but she's not sure if he's that strong, and he's starting to look a little pale. "It can get rough after dark." "Indeed," Remus says, but he smiles almost politely. "See you," Faith replies, and she tries to shut the door quietly behind her.
impeccable characterization sells a good crossover every damn time.

Okay so I finally saw “The Eighth Witch” last night.
When Robin goes to Alice after receiving her letter (and then they kiss and it’s beautiful), the twist wasn’t ‘omg they’re gay!’ The twist was who exactly Alice and Robin were in love with. And it was each other.
Alice being gay wasn’t a surprise. Besides her mentioning she had an ex-girlfriend in the episode “Beauty,” Alice repeatedly says “her” when referring to her partner. She says she doesn’t want to lose “her” to the curse, and asks Hook to give “her” a letter for her. So her partner being revealed to be a girl isn’t the surprise.
It is mentioned by Zelena that Robin “has a case of young love,” but it’s left unknown who Robin is in love with, or what their gender is. So while it wasn’t obvious that she’s lgbt like Alice, because no name, gender, or pronouns of her partner are mentioned, it doesn’t lead us to believe she’s straight either. So her partner being revealed to be a girl isn’t a total surprise.
Some shows, such as The Loud House with Luna and Sam, purposefully lead us to believe that the girl has a crush on a guy, but then the twist is it’s a girl. Sam is a gender-neutral name, but is more commonly associated with guys. So Sam being a girl and Luna having a crush on a girl was meant to be the twist.
In both Alice’s and Robin’s scenes, we aren’t led to believe that they have a crush on a guy. Alice is blatantly lgbt, and the lack of both name and pronouns for Robin’s partner means we aren’t primed to believe she’s straight.
The twist was that they are dating each other, not that they are lgbt. 
And I think that is beautiful.

okay
wehre the fuck did i get to in my list

ah yes sailor moon s
AAAAAAH SAILOR MOOON S

oh i only finished it like 13 days ago
anyway
oh yea spoilers
a#this was gonna be short but like man there are so many characters i think they'll get like a line or two each sorry it's not in depth
i'm so tired
usagi: as based as ever. and usagi pilled. i mean like it was obvious she was the massiah once that plot point was brought up. they tried to goat us into thinging it was some one else like saturn but we see you show we see youuu
chibi usa: omg she's back. do i like the fact that she's back... yea you know what it's nice. it works it's fun. and then it hit me like a truck with her friendship with hotaru. chefs kiss. very adorable.
ami: wheres the screen shot of her having based oppinions about science. idk it's somewhere he on my laptop. oooh her swiming race with michiru aaaah. loved that episode. she's really cermenting herself as my fave like over all
rei: imma be real as of like rn i can't remember what she did bar like her episdoe with yuuichiru. like i know she did stuff i thought was based but i just don't remember
makoto: girlie be the third to turn bi
minako: girlie be the fist to turn bi hehehe. oooh and her solo epsiode this season very nice. gotta love her relationship with artimis
okay side note: they spend a lot of this season studying which i'm very impressed with
luna: vibing it up as usual. dosn't have much to do but i love her
artimis: stop doing cool/nice/funny things i want to ignore you. but i can't so good going my guy i know definatly acknoledge you're existance
side note again: it would be funny if this ends up being my longest sailor moon review simply becasue theres so many characters and i keep adding random stuff in it
mamoru: he exists. he keeps chibi usa alive at one point. he dons't have much to do. thank you for existing i guess.
haruka: hehe. hehehe. hehehe. i love how much of a bitch she is. she turns all the sailor soilders gay (bar the child cos she's a child). i love the fact that she chanlenges usagi's right to the throne at the end. i love her convistion adn thet fact that she isn't afria to get her hands dirty, and the fact that she loves michiru. i love the fact that revolutionary girl utena was inspire by their relationship. all four lesbians are totally not both my lock screena nd home screen. i love that she can drive even tho she shouldn't. okay it dose get annoying that they don't help the sailor soliders sooner but like it makes sense cos of the way the manga is set out. we're ignoring the fact that this is the longest character sestion totallty not because i was waiting for her for ages and she's like my fave or anything
michiru: she so pretty and calm. really is watch moment
soide note ye: so like it annoys me that both michiru and ami are technically water. well ami is water and michiru is the deep ocean. and like they even flavour ami's to be more mist and bubbles (ceaser) but like it annoys my brain in like a really dumb way
sestsuna: girlie. you be space and time. why is your attack death scream. oh it's because you can't use that to attack with cos you get into trouble. that's okay proceed with being a queen and slay your enemires. wait noooo not yourself
hotaru: ooooh she has issssssuuuuuuuuuesss. poor girlie. okay but like in all seriousness i really like her relationship with chibi usa it's adorable. her awakening as sailor saturn i thought was really cool. i love how she's just like a neuke pheonix it's very funny
Kaolinite: okay so errr she exists. almost figures out who sailor moon is but dosn't. then she dies. but then she's back cos the professer brought her back . honestly i thought she was a clone bt no. and then she gets jeaslous and dies again. cool. i mean i remember you exists which is more than i can say about other villains on this list but still
souichi: who? oh yea/ so this is both hotaru's dad and i'll also use this as the double up for the even alternate dimentional being that's enhabiting his body. gotta love an evil cooky scientist villain. very fun to play with. i really like his relationship with the first 2 of the witches 5 (the others had like one episode each i don't caer). and then like once he's just a normal dad again his love for his daughter is so cute.
Eudial: she's my favorite of the witches 5. girl just drives out of what ever she wants and slays the glasses look. her desperation to get the talisments that unlock the holy grail is so good. and she almsot did it too which is very impressive. also her death brutal. kinda my fave of all the underling villans they really did put a lot of time into her
mimete: the build up to her was more interesting to me than when she was actually the villain the sailor soilders were facing. she straight up kills eudial in cold blood but then just turns out to be a fam hog and have a crush on like every famous person
tellu: i semi forgot she existed. like i remember her episode cos it's such a good one to protray chibi usa and hotaru's frindship but like she didn't do much. but to be fair if her plan had worked it would have been game over so that was cool
viluy: god. like she gives us such a based ami episode but she's boring as fuck. her nano bots where cooler
ptilol: idk she splits into two
mistress 9: she wants to bring an evil force from an evil dimention to fuck up the world. to do so she inhabits hotaru's body and bids her time. her outfit was a slay
motoki: man has one episode give him more
naru: i know she turns up but like i don't rememeber
umino: umino
yuuichirou: dumbass see's rei with haruka and things theor dating. man get a grip
okay man: okay so i have this guy his own chatagory. which like technically he dosn't deserve man dosn't even have line but like/ i had no idea that this meme from from this show like
Tumblr media
and liike this was one of the best episodes. it was so stupid i loved it
errr cool so thats the end of the review
i'm very tired
i'm not doing a plot one
i mean i could it does make me remember the plot of each season like stupidly well but like idk
if i do one it'll be like ages away
oh yea so this season is the best by far
haha im exagerating
okay but like legit
this season is so far my favoirte
i think the pasing of it is done super well and it handles it's very large cast pretty well. it also finally has the lesbians whichi is a huge plus
like sailor moon dosn't get gay till this season and then everyone becaomes bi is so good
literally what i was wairting fir this entire time
so anyway now i gotta watch the film and then super s

Okay, tell me more about Cream twins partners. How each couple met? How they end up together? Any fun cute facts? SPAM ME WITH INFORMATION! 🌸🌺🌸🌺🌸
Ooo! Yay! @kotikaleo this is a good ask.
Before I begin I want to make sure to clarify that both Crayon and Cindy were created by the wonderful @thebluescreen so credit for the characters go to them. (we share 3 ship kids universes)
And once again I wanna say : Disclaimer, This Celest and Luna are the children of Cross and Dream. NOT Cross and Shattered Dream. They are a alternate universe version of the Dark cream twins. They should not be confused as being the same.
I'm gonna start with Celest and her husband Crayon.
These two first met when Celest was 11 and Crayon was 12. For them it was basicly love at first sight. Celest and Luna both grew up travelling around the multiverse and that's how the met.
Crayon is a half human half monster who originally came from a dust tale time line. But more about him will come from @thebluescreen
It was an awkward, inconvenient first encounter. Luna had just broken her leg trying to do a back flip off a table (she was a dumb kid) and Celest (who had been learning first aid from a book) attempted to set it. And she made it a whole lot worse. (cross and dream weren't there at the time, they had left them alone for 10 minutes)
Crayon and his friend went over to help luna. The stress of the situation caused celest to throw up a large amount of gloop and then loose her strength in her legs and fall over. Crayon was close enough to her to catch her as she fell and gently lowered her to the ground. They locked eyes and well, they had basically been crushing on eachother since then.
It took Luna locking them in a room together and refusing to let them out till they confessed to do the trick.
They got together when Celest was 15 and Crayon was 16.
The two were very much in love. The slightly over the top, sugary sweet, child hood sweethearts. Used a bunch of cheesey names.
"I love you my sugar sweet snuggle muffin"
"not as much as I love you my cookie cream cuddle bear"
And luna is just the awkward 3rd wheel.
OK so Luna was in a relationship with this monster called Daisy from the age of 16 to 20. Daisy was a bitch, but more on that below.
It was all good till Celest turned 18, she started to get soul pain. Up until this point her sickness had been bothersome, but not to serious.
But after seeing a soul doctor, she was informed that the curruption was starting to attack her soul, and there was a possibility that it would kill her. Of course her and her family were heart broken, crayon included.
Celest went through a stage of being unhappy. The idea that she could die terrorised her. She had nightmares and got stressed to the point of alot of puking fits.
Her main conforts where her sister and boyfriend.
"I just can't help thinking of everything I'll miss out on. Marriage, children...... Travelling the multiverse...... But at least I have you right?"
So crayon responded with.
"then let's get married"
Of course Celest was shocked and was sure she'd misheard him. But then he said.
"you said that you were afraid of missing out on it, but this way we won't! I want to marry you, if you'll have me."
Celest said.
"but we are both so young, you shouldn't have to carry my burden. You have a life to live"
He said
"I want to spend it with you"
And she said yes.
Yay.
They were married just under a year later and where very happy. Cross was alittle sad to see his princess grow up so fast. But in the end they were all happy.
Crayon is truly Celest's rock. He's very sweet and good to her. To him, she is the bright light in his life, with her kindness and smarts.
They normally spend there time curled up watching movies. Or taking trips to aus like outertale to look at stars. Its all very lovey dovey.
For Luna, love was never all that easy. As I said above her first girlfriend Daisy was a bitch.
Daisy was a emotionally horrible person to Luna. Constantly telling her things like, how she needs to summon ecto or she looks like a man. Or how bones just aren't that attractive. How that fact that she was so close to her sister was creepy. In the end it was revealed that she'd been cheating on Luna while Luna had been helping her sister in the hospital. Luna finally dumbed her.
Years passed and Luna would tell people that she was ok and over it. But in truth it left huge emotional scars. She started avoiding committed relationships like the plague.
Over the years she has had a few casual girlfriends, flings and hook ups. But she told people that long term wasn't her thing, Celest knew that wasn't true, but she couldn't force her sister to date someone. It all changed when she ment Cindy.
She meets Cindy when she's 27. Basically, she met Cindy through Crayon. Since Cindy was the best friend of Crayon's sister's boyfriend.
Cinder is a underlust Sansby child and is a girl who knows what she's got and flaunts it slightly. When Luna first saw her, she went into 'oh no she's hot' mode.
Infact this was there first interaction.
Cindy "hi, I'm Cinder. It's nice to meet you"
Luna *gay panic*
Luna "wanna see me do a back flip?"
Cindy "wa-
Luna trys to back flip and falls on her face.
Cindys "you ok there?" *offers hand to help her up*
Luna *takes her hand and is helped to her feet*
Luna *more 'omg she's touching me!' gay panic *
Luna "wanna see me do a back flip?"
So yeah, Luna is very gay.
The attraction was physical to start with. Luna was smitten to the strong, confident, sexy fire girl. Que Luna repeatedly doing stupid things to try and impress her.
The best way to sum it up would be.
Tumblr media
Pfff OK XD
Luckily for Luna though, Cindy starts to fall for the goofy cluts. Not only is Luna just a loveable idiot, but she is also quite attractive.
Cindy comes in one day while she's training and watches her spar with Cross and do a back flip successfully. She's a skilled fighter and is just as Good At Yoga as her dad is. So yeah, Luna is quite attractive to Cinder in her own right.
Cindy starts using alot of pet names for her, calling her Moony and Princess. This embarrasses Luna to no end.
So what happens? Well.
After Luna has once again fallen to the ground while trying inpress Cindy and is kind of laying there defeated. The following conversation happens.
Cindy "you need some help there Moony?"
Luna *blushes* "you know I'm gonna come up with an embarrassing nickname to call you, you know!"
Cindy "really Princess?"
Luna "yes! Uhhhhh Cinderella! Ha!"
Cindy "Cinderella? You think I've not been called that before"
Luna "dam it uh... I've got it! Toffee"
Cindy "Toffee"
Luna "yes, like Cinder toffee, and because you really like sweet foods and-
Cindy "and you could totally eat me?" *smirks*
Luna *without thinking* "yes absolutely"
Silence.
And my friend if you don't get the joke.... Its probably to mature for you. This basically causes Cinder to turn up the flirt on Luna, who is very embarrassed about saying that. To Cindy it has basically been confirmed that Luna wants her, and she's into that.
Luna freaks out *thank you gay panic* and yells "I'M STRAIGHT!" and runs away.
Luna then spends the next two days being consoled by her sister. Meanwhile Cindy asks around to find out if Luna is really straight. It is very quickly confirmed to her that Luna is very much gay and very much into her.
She conforts Luna about this and after Luna attmits that she is gay and is about to confess her crush, Cindy pins her to the wall and kisses her.
Long story short Luna gets to eat her and they go to bed together. And after that they become 'causal' girlfriends. It doesn't take to long for there feelings for eachother to evolve from a physical attraction into real love. But they would never confront their feelings.
Texting eachother till the early hours of the morning? just causal.
Inviting Cindy to family Christmas? just causal.
Laying in eachothers arms in bed, not wanting to get up. Just causal.
Who knows if they will ever confront how they really feel? Maybe some unfortunate life events will force them to.
Fun facts about the couples.
Cindy has a whole bunch of pet names for Luna, after they start dating she most commonly calls her Starlight. But has a whole list more
Crayon loves to buy his wife flowers. He's quite a soft man and I like to think he takes great care in picking out a bunch of flowers. He'll most commonly buy her roses. He also likes to prepare picnics so that they can go out to aus together.
Cindy has a huge sweet tooth. Luna has often tried to bake for her. Lu Lu isn't a very skilled Baker though. But if she presents Cindy with a plate of slightly burnt cupcakes splattered with icing, it will make Cinder's heart melt.
Crayon often has to help Celest get dressed in the mornings. Since the marks commonly appear on her arms and legs. Crayon has taken a very long time to practice how to help her dress without causing pain.
Some mornings, especially after they've had a busy night, Cinder will often steal Luna's shirt. She will wear it around the house. "but babe... That's my shirt"........... "I've got no idea what you're talking about Moony".
Celestial star would be the type to call her husband at work out of nowhere just to remind him that she loves him.
The first time they kissed, Celest got so nervous and excited that she threw up gloop all over him.
Cindy loves to roller skate and would attempt to teach Luna how to. After a long time of Luna falling over into many comprising positions, Cinder simply wraps her arms around her waist and they skate together.
Crayon is a half human-half monster, so he can practice some magic. One thing he likes to do is make little figures of butterflys fly around his wife's hospital room when she has to stay at the hospital. It always makes her day.

My Top 20 HP Characters In Order (+ Explanations)
Remus Lupin: He’s all around an incredible human being that has went through so many things that would make any normal person bitter, but he is still kind and compassionate regardless. He helps Harry, comforts him, and fights by his side until the very end. And soft boy make my heart go whoo.
Sirius Black: He’s a badass that doesn’t give two shits what you think about him and will do whatever it takes to protect and care for the people he loves. Even after spending twelve years in Azkaban he was still a better man than half of the other characters could even dream of being. And I really just like a man in leather.
Regulus Black: This man would make me risk it all and I am not at all ashamed. He sacrificed his literal life in the attempt to stop —or at least delay— Voldemort, separated himself from his brother just to protect him, and carried the deatheater mark all on his own with absolutely no complaints. He’s a beautiful soul.
Minerva McGonagall: She is obviously just an iconic woman that will tolerate no bullshit from anyone at anytime and always has her students best interests at heart. She is a precious soul and I would die for her. And I really want her to offer me a biscuit.
Draco Malfoy: He did not get the redemption arc he deserved and I am still pissed about it. He fucked up along the way, yes, but even still he did everything in his power to try to do what little good that he could. He literally lied to his family about recognizing Harry and that says a lot by itself.
Cedric Diggory: This man chanced the fucking cup and gave his life just to help Harry’s smartass and if that doesn’t say enough about his character then I don’t know what will. He is by far one of the most selfless people in the entire franchise and did not deserve to die.
Fred Weasley: This man is one hell of a good prankster and an all around joy to be around. He literally lights up any room and always makes sure that his friends are smiling no matter what. Plus I think he’s kinda hot.
Marlene McKinnon: I mean do I even need to explain this? Marlene is a fucking angel and a lesbian icon and I have no choice but to love her. She gave her life to the order and didn’t show a single sign of weakness whatsoever.
Teddy Lupin: This little shit is a fucking fireball, punk rock (he gets it from Sirius), prank pulling, muffin baking, model of a man and no doubt has given Harry his fair share of heart attacks over the years. I would love to jam out to Def Leopard with him while we paint our nails.
Luna Lovegood: She is an angel that fell straight from heaven and that is a hill I will die on. She is the most beautiful person in the HP universe, and I don’t just mean on the outside. She always drops everything for someone in need and is never disrespectful and I love her.
James Potter: Jamie-boy has a heart of gold and did not deserve to be killed so brutally. The amount of love and compassion bottled up inside of this one human being is surreal and I can’t help but marvel at his sacrifices.
Ron Weasley: Let’s get one thing straight, I will not tolerate any hate toward Ron Weasley ever. Sure, he’s had moments where he was a total prick but so has everyone else. He cared so much for Harry and even stole his dad’s car to rescue him from his abusive family. He’s a damn good friend and completely underrated.
Scorpius Malfoy: Scorpius is a polite little godsend and deserves the fucking world. He is the polar opposite of his father except the part where they’re both hopelessly gay for a Potter and honestly just a precious human being. He definitely is the only thing that keeps Albus’ fiery temper in check and I love him for that.
Neville Longbottom: This innocent bean of a man slaughtered Nagini single handedly and if that doesn’t give enough explanation as to why I love him then I don’t know what will. He learned to roll with the punches and was never cruel to anyone.
Lily Evans: She saves her son’s life with just her love and I think that is fucking badass as hell. She made sure to put James Potter in his place and was always a best friend to Remus when he needed it most and fuck I love her.
Blaise Zabini: He’s mostly just on this list because I think he’s god level attractive. I also have a type for pompous dicks and at first encounter Blaise fits into that category pretty well, but I really do love his personality to be honest.
Peter Pettigrew: Yes, Peter is a backstabbing twat, we all know it, but I can’t help but love him. During his school years he definitely snuck food into the Gryffindor Commons just to make sure all the younger kids ate properly and you can’t change my mind.
Harry Potter: Harry is a sassy, sarcastic bitch and I absolutely love him for it. This boy faces death every year and just keeps coming back like it’s nothing more than a slap on the wrist?? Love it. And he’s also a chaotic disaster bi and that’s something him and I can relate on.
Seamus Finnigan: Seamus is really only on this list because when I was younger I used to be like, completely in love with him. Honestly now he’s only within the top twenty because he snogs Dean 24/7 and I’m not ashamed to admit that.
Severus Snape: Okay I fucking loathe Severus as a person, he’s an abuser and a coward, but as a character I love him. He is probably one of my most favorite villains (yes I classify him as a villain don’t come for me) and I refuse to accept his “you have your mother’s eyes” bullshit as a redemption arc. If Draco has to live with his burdens, you do too, Snivellus.

Noctis
Getting back to these asks, and capping off the OT4 with my One True King
Tumblr media
My NOTP for them: I feel like I'm putting Ardyn as everyone's NOTP but I mean can you blame me
My BroTP for them:  Hm. I'm tempted to put Ignis because I love the friend/brother lens for IgNoct. Ignis' love for Noct is one of my favorite things in the game, I feel like it even overshadowed a lot of things on the story once one shifts the POV to Ignis. I don't need the romance angle to justify Iggy's devotion to Noct, because I also can think back on several support characters (usually of a lord/vassal, king/knight nature) whose love is just... a product of honest devotion and desire for one's liege to rule well and have a good life. I love characters like Iggy and sometimes I just like to enjoy something beautiful like that, sans the noise that romance and lust can make. 
But on the other hand, I'm trash so really, IgNoct as a ship is still totally fair game so
My OTP for them:  You know, I tried, I really did, to love LuNoct as canon intended (because I am too lawful good to have much fun in life), but I cave. My Noct OTP is Promptis. Because of course it is! How can you not! You know whose fault it even is? Noct's, that's who. The boy is really soft on Prompto. He keeps digging it in that he knew Prom as far back as their elementary days, even when Prom keeps saying their friendship is only five years old. Prompto is that person Noct chose for himself (I mean sure, Luna encouraged Prompto, but Noct already noticed him before that) and cared for as a friend because they just click so well. Prom makes Noct happy and seems to be a good influence to him to get him out of his shell, which is made more beautiful by the fact that Prompto is his own ball of insecurity to whom Noct says over and over that he's good enough. Yes, they are best friends and yes, I can also totally see that they can just remain that way, but if Noct ever swung that way? There's no one else he can marry that'll make him happier than Prompto would THERE I SAID IT
My second choice pairing for them:  I'll just give this one to canon - LuNoct. LuNoct is that ship that did not quite sail for many fans because the execution was poor, which is sad, because it had all the elements of a good romance: arranged marriage, childhood friends, slow burn, mutual pining, like- the more I think about it, the more I think we were robbed tbh.
My fluffy pairing for them:  Promptis is thr fluffy pair, innit? They are both big dorks and lovable puppies and the ship just gives so much room for young love, disaster crushes, best friends to lovers and all those fun things. I def think of Promptis for fluff.
My angsty pairing for them:  Oh jfc, it's got to be IgNoct, right? IgNoct goes straight for the heart, much of it because I can totally see Iggy being all selfless and not really needing anything from Noct in return. It is a quiet sort of love that is kept secret from even Noctis, and some days, when I am crazy enough to subject myself to angst with no resolution, I just think of canon and tell my brain, "Okay, but what if Iggy was in love tho..."
Christ.
My favorite polyship for them:  Polyship roadtrip 4evaaaa! Shout out to Gladio who just didn't make it to top ship for any of these categories, but that's okay because we know who tops most often anyway amiriiiite
My weirdest pairing for them:  I don't think I have other ships for Noct and I wouldn't call GladNoct weird because I think it's also cute. Totally would buy Gladio as Noct's gay awakening. So hm, this is probably going to be a crossover ship. Hm. Hm... you know what. Let's go full "shit wtf" - I think Noctis/Jin Kazama would be hot, LMAOOOO

hi!! I’m absolutely obsessed with you Alex and henry fics, you write them so beautifully!! I was wondering... do you have any interest in writing them as parents or becoming parents?? I can totally see them doing it but I would love to see a fic where that’s represented and you seem like the best person to bring it to life!! it’s totally okay if you’re not up to it though, just thought I would ask!!
Thank you so much for this; it activated my intrinsic gay urge to write found families and then consumed me. So, I present:
Found
Quick trigger warning for referenced child abuse linked to homophobia as well as some internalized ableism. Stay safe y'all.
Also, this is set in the future, because these boys need some time to settle before they bring a child into their family.
-
Alex and Henry are just starting dessert, a cake Henry saw on Bake Off and just had to try, when Henry takes a deep breath, sets down his fork, and says, "Alex? Would... I have a rather large favor to ask. It's okay if you say no, in fact, I... I don't even know if it's a totally good idea; I haven't really thought it through, but we..." He sighs, staring at his plate and trying to find the words. Alex frowns slightly, reaching over to take his hand. He rubs his thumb along the back of it, fiddling a bit with Henry's wedding ring, which makes them both smile.
After a moment, Henry takes a deep breath and says, "I was at the shelter today, and this boy came in. He was... he was jumpy, but a lot of them are at first. But he was just scared, and he wouldn't interact with any of the other kids or the staff or anything. I think he said he was eleven; his name's Tano. I... I just wondered if maybe we could host him for a few days? The final draft of my anthology's due next week, so I was planning on being home to work on it anyway, and I was... I just thought maybe some time in a more one-on-one environment would help him relax a bit. You don't have to say 'yes' if you don't think it's a good idea or if you don't want to."
"Yeah, well, I want to say yes," Alex says, and Henry smiles. "He sounds great; I'll go make sure the guest room is ready if you want to do the dishes? Then we can pick him up tonight."
"How did I get so lucky as to have a husband like you?"
"You were a dick to me when we were teenagers and I became instantly obsessed with you. Then you started baking incredible cakes to keep me here."
Henry rolls his eyes, bending down for a kiss as he grabs Alex's dishes and takes them to the sink. Alex comes to kiss his neck from behind, then starts upstairs.
"I'm going to call the shelter to let them know what we're thinking," Henry tells his back, and Alex shoots him a thumbs up. Henry dries his hands off and calls the shelter, letting them know that they should give Tano as much time as he needs to decide and call back when he's ready.
He decides he does want to come stay, so after the dishes are washed and the guest bedroom is ready, Alex and Henry drive to the shelter. Alex keeps drumming his fingers on the steering wheel until eventually, Henry reaches over to lace their fingers together, pressing a kiss to the back of Alex's hand.
"It's going to be fine; you don't have to be nervous."
"I know. I just hope we can help him." Henry nods, smiling slightly. Alex just wants to do the most good they possibly can.
"If it doesn't work out, he'll still know that there are people willing to try for him, though. So either way, this... this could be good, right?"
Alex nods, giving Henry's hand a squeeze. They're at the shelter before too long, parking and walking in. They're greeted immediately, not as a prince and a politician, but as Alex and Henry (or, perhaps more accurately, Henry and Henry's husband. Not that Alex minds one bit). The kids are all happy to see them, and Alex catches a few beaming at their clasped hands. He just smiles to himself, remembering how it felt to see Rafael Luna and his boyfriend together in public for the first time. He presses a kiss to Henry's cheek, just to show the kids they can, and he watches a few more smiles break out as kids realize that this is something that's okay; it's something they can have someday.
When they get to the main office, Henry goes to sign some papers while Alex goes to talk to Tano. He's sitting in a chair with a battered Power Rangers backpack beside him, legs swinging. He looks up when Alex comes over, then down again almost immediately.
"Tano? Hi, I'm Alex. Henry and I are really looking forward to having you stay with us for a bit."
"Thank you. You don't have to."
"I know. We want to." He holds out a hand, either to shake or to help Tano off the chair, but Tano flinches back. Alex swears, then slaps his hand over his own mouth. "Tano, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry; I'm not going to hurt you, I promise. I'm so sorry. I'll be more thoughtful next time. I... if you still want to come with us, I swear I'll do better."
"I... I do. It's okay. I'm sorry."
"You have nothing to be sorry for. I'm sorry."
"I got paperwork signed," Henry says, coming over to join them. "It's good to see you again, Tano. I think we're all set to go." Tano stands, grabbing his bag.
"I like your backpack," Alex says, trying again.
"Thanks." Tano looks like he might be considering saying something more, but they're out of the office now, and he instead resorts to trying to keep tabs on everything happening around them, wide eyes flitting around the room and from person to person. Alex decides not to push it, and they're quiet until they get to the car. Henry makes sure Tano's seatbelt is buckled, then asks if he wants to tell them anything about himself or where he's from.
"Puerto Rico, until I was five. Then Manhattan. My... my dad moved us after my mom died because his family is from Wisconsin."
Henry only gets a shrug when he asks if Tano likes Manhattan, so he switches topics, asking instead what Tano likes to do. He shrugs again. "I like to read, I guess. My dad said I had to so I'd be smart and do well in school and get a good job. He says it's harder for people like us to get jobs here."
Alex and Henry exchange a look. When Henry asks what kinds of books Tano likes, he doesn't get much of a response, so he lets it drop and they pull up to the house in silence.
"Tano, I don't know if they told you, but we have a dog named David. He's... he's kind of old now, and he's not a big dog, so he shouldn't run or jump on you or anything like that. But we can still put him in our room if that would make you more comfortable," Alex offers, but Tano shakes his head.
"It's okay." Tano climbs out and follows Henry inside, Alex bringing up the rear. David comes to greet them, and Henry bends to rub his ears and distract him for a minute while Alex offers to show Tano to his room. Tano looks a bit surprised, but he follows Alex up to the guest bedroom.
"I'm sorry it's not super personal; it... it's a guest room, but we can make it better for you soon, okay?"
"Thank you. You don't have to."
"It's no problem, and if... if you want to personalize it a bit, Henry or I would both be really happy to help. We'd both do we can to make you more comfortable," Alex says, showing Tano the bathroom. Tano just nods, and Alex leaves him to get unpacked with an invitation to join him and Henry in the living room if he wants to later. He doesn't come down, but when Henry checks on him before they go to bed, he's asleep.
The next morning, Alex leaves for work before Tano gets up. Henry brings his laptop to the kitchen to work, so he's there when Tano comes down, and they get to eat breakfast together. Part way through scrambled eggs, Tano asks, "Could you... sorry, could you move your hand?"
"I'm afraid you'll see me chew."
"That's okay. I just... I need to read your lips."
"You need to... Tano, are you deaf?"
"No! No, I'm... I'm fine. There's nothing wrong with me. I can hear people talking to me, I just... I can't always make out the words, if it's loud especially, and they're doing work outside and that makes it harder. Lip reading makes things easier sometimes, but I... I'm normal, I swear."
"Okay. If... if you want to get your ears checked, we can, but you don't have to."
"But I'm... I'm normal. There's nothing wrong with me."
"I know; there's nothing wrong. But maybe a doctor could make things a bit easier for you.”
“I’m okay. I’m not... not sick or... I don’t need a doctor.”
“Alright. I was saying, maybe we could take David for a W-A-L-K later if you’d like.”
"I'd like that. He's a good dog."
“He is a good dog. He’s getting up there a bit in years though; we were thinking of looking into adopting a younger one soon. Alex wants us to get a lab or a golden retriever, but I’d lean a bit more toward another smaller dog. We travel a lot, since our families don't live in the city, and I can't imagine bringing a golden on a plane or train somewhere.”
"Are... are planes fun? I've never flown. Except when I was five, I guess, but I don't remember much except the peanuts."
They talk about flying, and Henry makes sure to keep his mouth visible. On their walk, he turns toward Tano whenever he has something to say, just in case Tano needs to read his lips. He notices him peeking sometimes, but he doesn't comment.
It's Tuesday, which means it's Bake Off night, which typically means Alex and Henry are cuddled up in front of the TV with hot drinks and a bowl of popcorn. This week, Tano joins them, and Henry casually makes sure they have subtitles available. Tano says he likes the show, though he slips off to bed after it's over, leaving Henry and Alex downstairs together. Henry explains what he's learned about Tano's hearing, and Alex nods, already starting to think of ways they can help.
When they check on Tano before bed this time, he's awake, and he flinches back when they open the door to peek in.
"I'm okay. Don't... don't come in." He sounds like he's been crying.
"Tano? Is everything okay, buddy?" Alex asks.
"I'm fine. I... I don't need anything. I'm fine. Don't... don't come in. I don't need you."
"Okay, well, we... we're just down the hall if you do. We want to help if we can. Goodnight," Henry says, putting a hand on Alex's shoulder and pulling the door closed. Alex looks ready to go into the room anyway to try to rescue Tano from whatever's upset him, but that will only make things worse.
"Hen, I... he needs us," Alex protests softly, but Henry shakes his head.
"He said he doesn't; we have to trust him if we want him to trust us."
Alex sighs, clearly wanting to go help but letting Henry's warning sink in.
"I... I guess. I just want to make things better for him."
"I know. And I love you for it."
They go to bed, and the week goes on. Sometimes Tano has nightmares, sometimes he's asleep when they check on him. Slowly, they start to see the eleven year old boy emerge from behind the layers of fear. When they get in the car about a week after he's come to stay with them, Henry hands him the Spotify app and he finds an album for them to listen to that's not in Henry's saved music. That's reason enough for Henry and Alex to have an excited conversation that night. They go to the library, and when Henry suggests they read a book together, Tano picks one out. Not long after, he's making comments on Bake Off contestants, mentioning which bakes look good. When he agrees that trying to make shortbread together would be fun, Alex feels his heart leap.
Things change a bit when Henry's publisher calls him back to England for a press tour. They'd known this was coming, but somehow, Alex had thought that maybe Tano would be gone by now. Maybe things wouldn't have worked out, or he'd have wanted to go back to the shelter to be with kids his own age. Instead, he's just getting used to the routine, and now it's changing. Alex takes time to work from home, but things still feel off until the night after Henry leaves.
Alex isn't sure what time it is when he hears the office door open, but he knows it’s late. He turns to see Tano in the doorway, shrinking back almost immediately.
“Tano? It’s okay; what’s up, bud?”
“I’m fine. I’m... I... the light was on, so I thought maybe... I... I had a dream you were gone. Both of you. I just... just wanted to make sure. I’m sorry. I didn’t want to bother you.”
“Nothing to be sorry for. I used to just stand in my dad’s kitchen and eat ice cream in my boxers when I couldn’t sleep, so this... I’d much rather this than that.” Alex chuckles a bit, and Tano smiles, glancing up at him for a moment. He still looks a bit scared, so Alex asks, “Want to hang out for a bit? We don’t have to, but we could read or watch something until you’re tired again.”
It takes a minute, but Tano nods. “I... can you... is it okay if we read without Henry?”
“I’m sure he won’t mind. He did this to himself, getting a British publisher. Come on, let’s get you back to bed and I’ll start the next chapter.” Tano smiles again, just a bit, as Alex gets up and comes over. He offers his hand, and Tano takes it slowly, though he holds on tight. He always seems so much older than he is, but as David joins them on their way to his room, Alex realizes all over how young eleven really is.
“You... if you don’t want to read, you don’t have to,” Tano says as they reach his room. Alex shrugs.
“I’d like to, if you want company for a bit. I... honestly, it’ll probably help me sleep, too. I don’t usually... I don’t sleep as well when Henry’s gone.” It feels embarrassing to admit it, but Tano has to hide a smile that spreads automatically across his face.
“Sorry, I’m sorry, I don’t mean... just, you really love him, don’t you?”
“I love him so much. More than... more than I ever thought I could. And I’m so proud of him, too... he’s the most incredible person I know, he really is.” Tano’s smile has grown a bit, and he doesn’t look as worried anymore. Alex smiles, making sure he’s all tucked in. He reaches for their book, but Tano stops him.
“If... if you want, if you’d rather, we... we could save it, and you could tell me some more about Henry. If you want. I... I've never heard about a couple like you before.”
“Alright,” Alex says, smiling. “I always like talking about Henry. Did you know we only got together because of his brother’s wedding?”
Tano shakes his head, so Alex starts on the story of how he and Henry got together. The cake, the turkeys, all of it. Tano falls asleep just before he gets to their first kiss, and Alex takes a moment to just look at him, this tiny boy who’s been through so much and is still here, who’s just starting to get better. It’s five AM in London, so he opts to text on the off chance Henry is sleeping in: “Tano had a nightmare, but he came to find me!!!” “Get him settled again. We (all three of us) miss you.” “I miss you the most. Love you.”
His phone is ringing as soon as he sends the last text, and he grins. Henry.
"Hi."
"Alex, hi. You said Tano had a nightmare? Is he okay?"
"He's fine. He... he dreamed we were gone, but then he came to find me. He didn’t just hide; he came and told me and then we calmed down together. He asked if we could read, but I ended up telling him about how we got together instead. He asked for that; I told him I don’t sleep as well when you’re gone and he asked. I’m just... I’m so proud of him. for asking for help and telling me what was wrong and everything.”
"I'm proud, too. He's come so far. I'm so sorry I missed it; I wish I could be there."
"How's London?"
"It's... you know. Bea's been wonderful; got to get dinner with her and her boyfriend last night. She and mum both say they miss you."
"I miss them, too. And you. You more than them, if I'm honest."
"I miss you, too. You should get some rest; it's late there. I love you. Tell Tano I love him, too, will you?"
"Of course. Love you."
Alex hangs up and gets ready for bed, and even as he misses Henry, he knows he'll be home soon.
-
They meet Henry at the airport when he comes home, and Alex wraps him in a massive hug the second he's off the plane. Henry hugs him back, laughing as he plants a kiss on Alex's forehead, then turns to Tano and says, "I've got a hug for you if you want it, and I've talked to the pilot. He's agreed to take the three of us up for a quick flight around the city if you want. We don't have to, but you said you don't remember flying, so I thought you might want to give it a shot."
Tano nods, his eyes wide, so they pile into the plane. Tano gets buckled into a window seat, and he spends the whole time with his eyes glued to the window. The pilot invites them up to the cockpit, and Tano gapes at all the buttons and switches, then out at the panoramic view of New York City spreading out below them.
"It's... it's so pretty. And there's so much of it, but it all looks so small."
Alex feels an arm around his shoulders, and he leans against Henry, smiling as they watch Tano talk to the pilot. He's happy, and their little family is together, and right then, Alex makes a decision.
That night, he rolls over in bed to ask, "Hen? I know we said Tano was only going to be here for a bit, but I... I love having him here. I really, really love it. Like... more than anything we've ever done. Do you think he could stay? I don't want the other kids to feel like we're picking favorites or anything, but he... I don't think he'd like it there. He's just started coming out of his shell here; I don't want him to go back and be scared. Plus, he can't hear as well when there's background noise, and that's just a noisier place because there are so many people. And a lot of the kids there are older than he is; he'd be there for a long time and that can't be good. I've got an outline of a powerpoint for reasons he should stay that would put my mom's work to shame, but really, I just... I love him so much. And it feels right to have him here. It feels right to have him as part of our family. I... I want so badly to have him move in with us for real.”
“I want that, too. I know we haven’t really talked about kids, but I...”
“We’re talking about them now, and the answer is yes. Absolutely, we want at least one kid, and his name is Tano.”
Henry laughs at that, burying his face in Alex’s chest for a moment. He can hear Alex’s heart speed up just a bit; Alex loves it when he does this. Henry’s personal theory is that it makes Alex feel tall, but he wouldn’t necessarily say that out loud. Out loud, he says, “What if... I don’t want to spring this on him. Do you think we write a letter? Tell him we’ve loved having him here and ask if he wants to stay?”
"I think that's a great idea."
The next morning, Tano finds a letter outside his room.
“Dear Tano,First off, we love you. We’ve both loved having you stay with us, and we are so, so proud of you. You’re an amazing kid, and it has been a joy to get to know you over these past few weeks.
We’re writing this as a letter to give you time and space to think about it, but we were talking last night, and if you’re willing, we’d like to move toward adopting you officially. We love you so much, and we want you to be part of our family. It’s alright if this isn’t something you want, but we would be honored to adopt you if you’ll let us.
Again, we both completely understand if you’d rather we not move forward with things. We’re honored to have been a part of your life no matter what, and we’re happy if things stay the same or if you’d like to go back to the shelter. Your happiness is what matters the most to us.
We’ll give you time to think this morning, but we’re in the office if you’d like to talk. We love you,Alex & Henry”
He finds them in the office, each with a mug in hand. Alex has his feet draped across Henry's lap, and they're talking easily. It feels strange to knock, but Tano does, and they both turn to him with smiles.
“Hey, Tano. How’d you sleep?” Alex asks.
“Good. I... I got your letter. And... yes. If you’re sure, I... I want to... to do it. Please.”
Alex beams, swinging his legs off Henry’s lap and setting his coffee aside. “Tano, can I... is it okay if we hug you?”
Tano nods, and a second later, Henry’s scooping him into a big hug. Alex joins in after a bit, and someone’s crying. Alex definitely is, but Tano’s surprised to find tears in his eyes, and he looks to see Henry crying, too.
“I’m so proud of you, and I love you so much,” Henry tells him. “I’m so glad we get to bring you into are family.”
“You... you really want to adopt me? You want me?”
“Absolutely. We love you a ton, Tano. I mean, not to expose him, but Alex has your picture as his home screen and carries it in his wallet. He has since that first night we watched Bake Off together."
“We love you so much,” Alex says. “I’m... Henry’s sister said when he was in London, you were all he could talk about. We’re so proud of you, and so happy to know you and be part of your life. Of course we want you to come stay with us and be part of our family.”
Tano smiles up at them. They go down for breakfast, and part way through, Tano says, “I... I think maybe, if it’s okay, I’d like to... to see a doctor about my ear? I... only if it’s not annoying you. But my dad hit me a while ago, and it... my hearing changed. I can still hear; I’m not... not broken or anything, but it’s different, and I just... before you adopt me, maybe we should see what’s wrong with me. Just in case.”
“We... we’d actually talked about that a bit, and we thought it might be easier to get you on our insurance than it would be to get you registered for Medicaid, especially if we're just going to switch you over to ours soon anyway,” Alex says, glancing between Henry and Tano. “It... if you’re sure about adoption, it would mean waiting for that paperwork to go through and everything, but it... ours might be a bit faster and have higher premiums and things.”
“But what... what if they find out I’m broken? Don’t you want to know that before?”
“It won’t change who you are. You’ll still be you, just maybe with a hearing aid or something,” Alex says, shrugging. “We love you for you, not because we think you’re some perfect kid or anything.“
Tano feels tears prickle in the back of his eyes and looks down. He’s hoping Alex won’t notice, but of course he does. “Oh no; did I... it’s okay. I’m... if you don’t want to move so fast that’s okay. We can do it before.”
“No, it’s not... I thought... you still want me if I’m broken?”
“Oh, Tano, of course we do,” Henry says, gently pulling him in for a hug. “Partial deafness doesn’t mean you’re broken, but we love you and want you no matter what.”
“We love you for you, buddy. No matter what,” Alex says, coming to hug him from the other side.
Tano sniffles a bit, then says, “It... it might take me a little while to believe you.”
“Mate, it took Alex like five bloody years to realize I loved him. I can wait,” Henry says, and Tano laughs.
By the next day, they’re sitting down with one of Alex’s lawyer friends to draw up adoption papers. The shelter had reached out to Tano’s dad, and he’d told them he didn’t have a son anymore. Tano doesn’t need to know that. All he needs to know is that he now has two dads who adore him and are already working to get him fully brought into their family.
They both get paternity leave from work to help Tano get settled, so a week later, they’re at the audiologist. Tano gets called into a listening booth, and Alex can barely sit still.
“He’s going to be fine,” Henry says, his hand moving to Alex’s bouncing knee. Alex sighs.
“But what if he’s not? What if he’s scared? Or... or what if they do something mean to him? What if they hurt him?”
“Alex. It’s an audiologist’s hearing test. There’s nothing to hurt him.”
“But what if he’s scared?”
“He’s been through much harder things than this.”
“Yeah, but that was before we could protect him. Now he’s ours; what if something— he’s coming. Oh no, Hen, he’s upset.” Alex holds out his arms, and Tano shuffles into them, but he doesn’t move to hug back. After a second, Alex pulls away to ask, “Tano? What’s wrong, bud?”
“They... I didn’t do well. They didn’t say anything, but they were disappointed. I could tell. I’m sorry. I... I wanted to be normal and whole for you, but I... I’m not.”
“Tano, bud, look at me, please? You are absolutely perfect for us just the way you are.”
“We love you for you,” Henry adds, and a tiny smile appears on Tano’s face as he looks between them.
“Thank you. I... I’m glad I get to be with you.”
This time, when Alex hugs him, Tano hugs back. Tano gets a hearing aid a week later, and the first place he wears it is to the animal shelter, where they’re going to pick a puppy. Alex and Henry have been thinking about it for a while, and it feels right to let Tano pick one out as a reward for his bravery at the audiologist.
They walk into the dog room, and Tano almost immediately makes his way toward a cage. The dog inside, a little jack russel, is sitting still, wagging its tale with a big smile. Tano sticks a hand in carefully, and it licks him, but it doesn’t jump or bark.
“What’s their name?” Tano asks the volunteer, and she smiles.
“That’s Freddie. He was rescued from a bad owner about a month ago; we’re looking for a quieter home for him.”
“Can I play with him?”
“Of course.”
She slips into the kennel to put a leash on Freddie, and then comes out to hand it to Tano. He takes it, then sits on the floor as Freddie comes out of his cage and straight to Tano’s lap. He climbs in, reaching up to lick Tano’s face, and Tano beams. Alex snaps a picture.
A few hours, a few signed forms, and Tano’s approval later, that picture is up on Alex’s Instagram:
“When I said marriage papers were the most important thing I’d ever sign, I didn’t know I’d be lucky enough to get to sign adoption papers. Henry and I are overjoyed to welcome these two into our family.”
That night, part way through the final of Bake Off, he looks over to the end of the couch to see Tano and Freddie curled up together. Henry is leaning against him, David's head in his lap. Alex lets out a quiet, contented sigh, then says, "I love y'all. I'm glad we found each other."
Tano smiles at him from across the couch, and Henry leans up to kiss his cheek, and Alex's heart is so full he thinks it might burst. He knows it'll still be hard; there will be nightmares and insecurities and all sorts of things to sort through. But there will also be new friendships and exciting road trips and quiet nights on the couch, and they can make it through anything as long as they have moments like this to come home to.

Notes:
Sorry to have disappeared for a bit; I had a bunch of research to do for Real Life Things. But! In that research, I found a Puerto Rican boy named Tano who lived on the streets of New York's Greenwich Village in the 1960s. We know infuriatingly little about him, but one of the things we know is that he met a bad end with the mafia, so I wanted to sort of... honor him I guess? I don't know; he deserved so much more than he got and I had this prompt sitting in my inbox, and I started thinking about what could have happened to Tano if he was born fifty years later in the good timeline. Also, there's no evidence that the real Tano was deaf/Deaf, but I can't resist the opportunity to add disabled representation to things.-On a more positive note, this fic sparked a whole lot of ideas about what an obnoxious, aggressively loving dad Alex would be. He'd be at every poetry reading/band concert/track meet/soccer game/whatever, cheering the loudest, maybe with a sign. It would be awful but Tano would secretly love it. Also, I like to think they'd learn sign language/get involved in Deaf culture, and Alex would be obnoxiously supportive of that.

“I’m at the restaurant now, I’ll call you later, don’t worry, I’ll call you, promise, bye Luna”
Draco doesn't believe in fate, but not until Pansy bailed on him and he met Potter again did he actually believe in it now.

____________________________
“I don’t believe in fate or destiny or whatever you said that’s going to happen to me today, Luna, and have you or Ginny seen Pansy?” Draco talked to his phone while running under the heavy rain, luckily he has got his charm on
 “We haven’t seen her since morning, but Draco, the Wrackspurts told me-…” Luna replied
 “I’m at the restaurant now, I’ll call you later, don’t worry, I’ll call you, promise, bye Luna” He reassured her, he would call her later, but not right now, because he was late
  “Hi, is my table ready?” Draco rushed in the restaurant as soon as he arrived there, his long hair was disheveled even though it was braided carefully, Luna did it, but he didn’t rush here because of the rain, he ran here because he was late to dinner with Pansy, it was their annual dinner every month to gossip about their lives, he didn’t remember how or when it started but he only knew that they still do it until now, this month Draco had found a new restaurant nearby, it took them ages to book a spot here, it got popular so quickly, the restaurant was famous for its steak and wine, and of course Draco has to have a taste of that
 “What’s your name, sir?” The small blonde girl asked him
 “It’s under the name Draco, Draco Malfoy” He said and watched the receptionist look for his name
 “Ah yes, it’s here, table for two”
 “Yes, that’s me” Draco smiled brightly and was about to step in but the receptionist stopped him
 “I’m sorry, we can’t let you sit down if your date isn’t here” The girl said and Draco gaped at her
 “What do you mean? I mean she will be here soon, and she’s not my date”
 “We’ll take you to your table once your date is here” The girl added “Our restaurant is very crowded so we can’t let you in if—…”
 “Yeah, I know, if my stupid date hasn’t arrived yet” He rolled his eyes, fine, Pansy could be considered as his date anyway, he couldn’t care less, he turned around, looking for his stupid friend, Pansy always liked to make an entrance, but they agreed they would be here at 8, now it was half past 8 and Draco hasn’t seen her yet, the cow.
      *
      “So my friend has to be here or else I won’t get in the restaurant at all?” He approached the receptionist again after five minutes, Pansy still hasn’t arrived and he was getting hungry, he hasn’t eaten all day so he could try the steak here and hell he was hungry he could eat a dragon, not that he would, but he could
 “Yes, sir, she has to be here”
 “Oh, come on, what difference does it make if you get a seat for me now or when my date gets here?”
 “Because we never have one person sitting at a table for two, sir, so when your date is here, I can find you a table” The girl explained and Draco groaned, walking away to the bar outside
 “Okay so I only need one person” Draco pulled his phone out as soon as it buzzed, Pansy was calling him
 “Pansy you cow” He snapped into his phone once he answered
 “I am so so so sorry” Pansy said “But look, I met Granger at the library today”
 “Granger? Wait, you were at the library?” He gasped “So you ditched me, your best friend, to go on a date with the one you had a crush on since Hogwarts?”
 “I’m sorry, but we bumped into each other and we talked and she agreed to go on a date with me in a few minutes, she’s like this hot lesbian nerd, Draco. Do you know how rare that is?”
 “Of course I know, I’m the hot gay nerd, Pansy” He snapped “So what now? I’ve been waiting months to eat in this restaurant”
 “I’m sorry, can I take a rain check? We can do it next time! Please? I’m so sorry, you can call Blaise or Theo” Pansy pleaded through the phone
 Draco groaned, walked through the crowd “You owe me, Pansy. And why the hell is this place so crowded?” He muttered and crashed into someone on his way through
 “Sorry sorry” He said and looked at the person he hit “Potter”
 “Potter? As in Harry Potter?” Pansy squeaked through the phone
 “Malfoy” Potter’s face was as shocked as Draco’s, both of them stood there staring at each other “What are you doing here?”
 “Pansy, I’ll have to call you back” He said and ended the call, he shoved the phone back in his pocket “What are you doing here?” Draco asked back and realised that the opportunity was representing itself in front of Draco’s eyes, his stomach growling at the thought of him finally getting to eat the steaks here “Potter, are you alone?”
 “I guess, but it’s because I’m focusing on my job and—…”
 “Shut up and hold my hand” Draco said and immediately intertwined their hands together without even thinking, he dragged Potter to the maitre d’s table and smiled
 “Hi, my date is here, can I have my table now?”
 “Yes, sir” The girl gaped a bit and led the both of them to their table
 “Malfoy”
 “Shush” He snapped and dragged Potter to their table, once they were seated there, Draco sighed out in relief
 “Er, Malfoy—…”
 “Oh, right, don’t worry, this is my treat” Draco offered “It’s for being my date”
 “Date?” Potter’s eyes widened a bit
 “Well, Pansy bailed on me to go with your friend, so it’s partly your fault too”
 “What?” Potter asked “Wait, Parkinson went with Hermione?”
 “Yeah, on a date, probably right now, and I’ve been waiting for ages to eat in this restaurant” He went on “And I will not let Pansy ruins my spot here, so, can you stay throughout the meal with me, Potter?” He pleaded with his puppy eyes
 “Er…I guess”
 “Oh god, thank you, and I know we haven’t been on the best term over the years but well, this could be a start, you know” Draco paused as soon as the waiter arrived
 “Welcome to Éclairage, my name is Jacob and I’ll be your server tonight. Are you ready to order, sir?”
 “Yes, thank you” He smiled gently and skimmed through the menu “For starter, I’d like some tomato soup, and for the main course, I’d like to try your restaurant’s famous steak, for dessert I think I’m going with the chocolate lava cake” He finally stopped and realised he just sounded like a hungry whale, ordering without considering the person in front of him, he chuckled a bit “Oh Potter, where are my manners? I’m so sorry, please, order something too”
 “Just the usual, Jacob” Potter said gently to the waiter
 “And can I get you two something to drink, sir?”
 “A bottle of Chateau Margaux 1787, and that’ll be all, thank you Jacob” Potter said and Draco’s mouth went slack, that was one of the most expensive red wine ever, he only served that to his friends on special occasion, but Potter…the pretentious git
 “Yes, Mr. Potter” The waiter nodded “I’ll be right back with your drinks” Then he walked away
 “Right, I should have known”
 “What?”
 “Famous Harry Potter” Draco smirked “Anywhere you go, people recognise you”
 “Well, it’s probably because—…”
 “And you must have gone here a lot right? Seems so” Draco crossed his arms over his chest and smiled “I’m having dinner with the big, mighty Harry Potter, I bet there’ll be an article tomorrow”
 “There will, but I don’t read the Daily Prophet anymore” Potter ran his hand through his messy hair and Draco’s breath caught, he coughed and continued
 “So, how’s the Auror life treating you, Potter?”
 “I actually quit being an Auror a year ago”
 “What? Really?” Draco leaned forward as he was shocked, he was in total shocked, Potter would actually quit being an Auror?
 “Yeah, being an Auror is quite…dangerous”
 “That’s weird coming from your mouth” Draco snorted
 “But how about you, what are you doing? I know Ron and Blaise are a couple now but Ron rarely tells me about anything except for how good of a kisser Blaise is” Potter laughed, showing his white teeth
 “You cannot imagine how many time Pansy and I had to shut Blaise up from talking about Ron too much, we basically banned him from saying Ron’s name in our house now” Draco ranted “And oh, I’m…the owner of a bookshop, it’s open for two years now”
 “That’s…amazing, you’ve always been a nerd” Potter replied
 “Sod off Potter” He snorted “What can I say, after being a Healer and seeing you too much at St. Mungo, I had to quit” He shrugged and crossed his legs
      *
       “Oh my god I’m so full” Draco took the last few bites of his steak and took a sip from his wine glass, no wonder the restaurant was famous for it, the food and the wine were bloody divine, they have been talking about their Eighth year, after the war, and normal stuff about their friends, Draco felt like it was mostly him talking, Potter was rather quiet today and he just looked at Draco eating, which was weird
 “You like it?”
 “I love it, Potter, I love it so much I could marry it” Draco moaned while chewing on the last piece of steak “God it’s so good” He kept complimenting the food and Potter chuckled “What?”
 “Nothing, you just look…quite adorable” Potter answered and Draco felt himself getting flustered by the git’s words
 “What? Shut up”
 “It’s true” Potter laughed again “You’ve always look adorable while eating, if I remember correctly”
 “You watched me?” Draco gasped, how the hell did the prat knew how Draco looked while eating?
 “Well, we did spend six years watching each other across the hall” Potter looked at him, his eyes seemed like they were hiding something…something Draco couldn’t figure out, he only knew that when those green eyes looked at him, it also stared into his soul, waking up the things he wanted to hide most…his long lost feelings for the bloody war hero
 “I-I did not spend my years watching you eat, Potter” He tried to protest but it was just failing, he knew exactly how Potter eat his food, how he was protective of his food if anyone takes some from him, how he loves treacle tarts, and how he always eats food separately, never smashed together, it was weird, Draco has always wanted to ask him why, but no time for that
 “Really? Because I remember clearly everyday when I was eating my favourite dessert, pumpkin pie, I always see you looking at me and then looked away”
 “That’s not true, your favourite dessert is treacle tart” Draco protested and immediately realised what he did as soon as Potter smiled brightly again at him
 “So it’s true”
 “Whatever, Potter, at least I did not have a crush on you or whatsoever”
 “I never mention anything about you crushing on me” Potter grinned again, and Draco felt his cheeks heating up “Did you?”
 “I—…shut up” He took another sip of wine and looked away
 “Want to play truth or dare?” Potter suddenly asked
 “Why? We’re in a restaurant”
 “For fun” Potter shrugged “Unless you’re too afraid to do it”
 “Don’t underestimate me, Potter, try me”
 “Alright, truth or dare?”
 “Truth” Draco proudly replied
 “What do you think of me?”
 “Dare” Draco flushed and switched the option
 “Okay, I dare you to say what you think of me” Potter gave him a big grin
 “You git, you tricked me” Draco frowned
 “Come on, it’s an easy one” Potter nagged him
 “Fine, I guess…you’re okay, you’re an idiot most of the time, but other times, you’re okay” He pouted “Is it my turn now?”
 “Sure, go ahead”
 “Truth or dare?”
 “Dare”
 “Ah, should have expected that from a Gryffindor” Draco chuckled and looked at Potter up and down, he was wearing a dark blue suit, it was possibly tailored and he looked dashing in it as well, wait…Potter? And dashing? No way, Draco shook the thought off instantly “Hmm, I dare you to…kiss the hottest person here” He looked around “Do you need me to find one for you? Look, that waitress there is quite hot”
 “I don’t think I swing that way anymore” Potter gave him a devilish smile and Draco’s lower part was awakened. Now? Seriously? He slapped himself mentally for getting excited by what Potter said that fast
 “You’re…oh my god” Draco said and looked around the restaurant one more time, he shrugged when he couldn’t find anyone hot for Potter to make out with “Too bad, there’s no man here as hot as me, as far as I can tell”
 “So you’re saying I should kiss you?”
 “What? No! Nonsense” Draco blushed again and reached for the wine bottle to pour himself more wine, avoiding Potter’s eyes at the same time
 “I’m a Gryffindor, you know, I won’t back out from a dare” Potter told him
 “Wait, I could find someone hotter for you” Draco searched frantically for anyone, anyone that might look hotter than him, but unfortunately, it was just a lot of old men and men that were not as attractive as Draco, and the blonde wasn’t even exaggerating
 “It’s no use, you’re the hottest here” Potter shrugged and the waiter arrived with their desserts, which Draco sighed out in relief, finally something for him to distract Potter from
 “Ooh desserts, it looks so good” Draco said and started eating, he could feel Potter’s eyes on him, the firm gaze roaming over his body, but he wouldn’t look up at the git, he couldn’t even if he wanted to, the intense gaze was burning him
 “Eat, Potter, stop staring at me” He cleared his throat and heard Potter chuckled, then he could see Potter started eating his chocolate mousse from the corner of his eyes.
 “God this piece of cake is so good” He moaned softly as he ate the marvellous cake. How could anyone make food this good? He could stay in this restaurant forever
 “You’ve always has a sweet tooth” Potter continued eating
 “What? How—…”
 “Your mother used to send you sweets all the time” This time Draco finally looked up at Potter once again, their eyes locked and the first thing Draco noticed was that Potter has chocolate on the corner of his mouth
 “Potter” He called and pointed to his own lips “You have…”
 “What? Do I have chocolate on my lips?” Potter said and stuck his tongue out to lick it but it just made the chocolate sauce went everywhere on the corner of his mouth
 “No, it’s…” He tried to demonstrate for Potter again but the git still couldn’t take it, Draco huffed and extended his arm across the table “Are you playing dumb or are you actually dumb, Potter?” He used his thumb to wipe the chocolate off but his movement stopped as soon as he felt Potter’s eyes on him again, he stared at the prat and his mouth opened slightly, he couldn’t breath all of a sudden. When did Potter look so charming? But it wasn’t like he was never charming, Potter did have his charms. Pansy had forced the blonde to admit that in Eighth Year, when Potter took off his wet shirt when a few Second Year students hit him with a water balloon on a hot day, Draco had drooled so much Pansy had to Accio a mop to clean it, not literally of course but she always exaggerated the story every time she mentioned it again just to tease Draco. Draco shook off the memory as he realised what was going on, his thumb was on Potter’s lips now and he has never seen Potter this close ever since the day he was brought back to the Manor during the war, he remembered that day clearly, of course he knew that was Potter, he just didn’t…want the git to die.
 “You look cute when you’re thinking” The voice brought him back to reality once again and he stuttered
 “W-what? I wasn’t…it’s just…shut up” He was about to retreat his hand when Potter caught him by the wrist, he jolted at the touch, Potter’s skin felt so hot. Was the git having a fever or was Draco imagining it all? Probably the second he reckoned
 “Is it over yet?”
 “What? Oh…yeah, the chocolate is all clear now” He blushed and got back on his chair, he cleared his throat and sipped on his wine “Well, I guess this is it” He wiped his mouth with the napkin and called Jacob, the waiter to prepare to pay for the meal
 “Can I have the check, please?” He asked nicely and the waiter nodded, giving him the bill
 “Just put it on my tab, Jacob” Potter said and the waiter nodded
 “Woah woah woah” He intervened and stared at Potter with wide eyes “Potter, I told you I’ll pay for this meal”
 “Yeah, I know, but—…”
 “And I will pay for this meal” He insisted “Don’t pity me, Potter, I still have money”
 “It’s not about money, Draco” Potter chuckled and the blonde didn’t know how to react, the fact that Potter just called him by his first name, and not his last, which was surprising, because that has never happened before, and Draco was shocked, he was in utter shock
 “Did you just…”
 “Call you Draco?” Potter smiled at him “I think it’s time we put the past behind us, right? Let me pay for the bill, I’m—…”
 “I don’t care that you’re the big and mighty Harry Potter, Potter” He snapped at the man in front of him “I made a promise and I will keep it, now Jacob, take my money” He looked at the confused waiter and nodded “I will pay”
 “Jacob, I’ll pay, go back to the kitchen” Potter told the waiter and he nodded, walking away
 “Potter!” He turned back and glared at the pretentious git in front of him “I can too pay for the meal”
 “Draco, listen—…”
 “No, I will not listen to you, Potter, you’ve been weird all night with the flirting and the looking and the staring and the chocolate and the stupid hair of yours” He babbled “You shut your sexy lips”
 “My what lips?” Potter began chuckling
 “Your…your silly lips, you and-and your silly lips” Draco tried to fix it but it was no use, Potter was hugging his stomach and laughing like ana idiot he was
 “Potter, stop laughing at me” He ordered and Potter finally stopped
 “Draco, are you sure I’m the only one flirting here?”
 “What? Preposterous” He protested “How could you—I would never, I—…you shut up and let me pay the bloody bill”
 “Draco—…”
 “Mr. Potter, Mrs. Tampleton is here and she wants to meet you” One of the waitress approached their table and cut Potter’s words off
 “Oh, alright, wait for me” Potter told Draco and stood up to walk to the table near the window, where a couple of old people were sitting at, Potter was laughing at an old woman in a fancy purple dress that Draco assumed was Mrs. Tampleton, next to her was an old man that was possibly her husband, Draco stared at how bright Potter’s smile was, he could light up the whole room, hell, even the whole street, Draco has always been swooned over by the bloody smile, he has to admit so. He couldn’t help thinking that this dinner with Potter could be a start of something new, probably a friendship, it was the only thing Draco wanted from Potter from the beginning, from the moment he saw him. From the boy who wore a baggy shirt that was too big for him, to a war hero at a young age, to a charming man in a suit now, and Draco’s heart was beating faster each second, because Potter was walking back to their table now, and he kept smiling at the blonde
 “Mrs. Tampleton? I haven’t seen her since my father’s party when I was seven, she still looks the same” He asked once Potter sat down again
 “Yeah, she wants to meet the owner of the restaurant” Potter shrugged and Draco nodded
 Wait a minute, what?
 “What?” He looked up at Potter, who was grinning at him “Wait…”
 “I can’t believe you didn’t know that” Potter chuckled and sipped on his wine
 “How the hell am I supposed to know that you are the owner of this restaurant?”
 “Well, I kept trying to tell you, but you cut me off every time” The git shrugged and Draco gasped
 “That’s why you pay for the bill, and that’s why the waiter and the receptionist know you”
 “Yeah” Potter nodded
 “Oh my god” Draco gasped again “Éclairage! It’s French for ‘lighting’, oh my god”
 “Yeah, Luna thought of the name” Potter replied “When I quit being an Auror, I started cooking, and I got good at it, then one day Ron said I should open a restaurant while he was eating my steak” Potter smiled, and Draco saw Potter’s small dimple on his left cheek, he blushed “Then I did…open a restaurant, I just didn’t want to reveal my name to many people, Mrs. Tampleton was my first one to eat here, she loved it so much that she has been my special guest ever since” Potter added “I’m surprised you didn’t realise earlier, I thought Blaise would mention it”
 “Yeah I also force him not to tell anything about you when he’s at my house” Draco sighed “I can’t believe you’re the bloody owner”
 “But it’s a good thing” Potter suggested “You can eat here anytime now”
 “Potter, we’re not even friends”
 “We aren’t?”
 “Well…I don’t know”
 “What are we?” Potter’s eyes twinkled “Arch enemies? School rivals? Boyfriends? Acquaintances?”
 “What’s that in the middle?” Draco almost choked on his own spit when he heard those words coming out of Potter’s mouth
 “School rivals?” Potter smiled from ear to ear, Draco glared at him and stood up
 “Well, it’s quite late, I have to go” He pushed the chair back and faked a cough, trying his best to get out of the embarrassing situation
 “Wait, I’ll walk with you” Potter called and Draco stood frozen on his spot, mumbling a curse word
 “Fine, but do try to keep up, Potter” He said and heard Potter snorted
 “I’m now taller than you, you know” He walked side by side with Potter and realised the hard truth, Potter did get taller, he was probably five or six inches taller than Draco now, the bloody prat, Draco murmured in his head. When they reached the door, Potter graciously opened it for Draco and the blonde’s cheeks went pink
 “What a gentleman, Potter” He said sarcastically to hide his sheepishness, as they walked outside, Draco noticed the rain had stopped, but the road was still wet “The Apparition point is just right down the corner, you don’t have to walk with me”
 “You know what Ron told me when he became a couple with Blaise?”
 “No, what?” He asked curiously, Potter didn’t even answer his question
 “He told me to always seize the moment, or else it’ll disappear right away, he’s suddenly wiser than Hermione when he got together with Blaise, they’re truly a good couple” Potter walked along with him closely, his hands in his pocket, Draco walked on Potter’s left, because Draco’s good side of the face was the right side, it wasn’t like his left face was ugly, it just wasn’t better than the right. The street lights were shining above them, the sound of water dropping from the trees down to the grown, and the light from the Muggle vehicle on the road, Draco suddenly felt cozy next to Potter as they walked on the sidewalk
 “Well, that’s really wise of him to say” Draco absentmindedly ran his hand through his long braided hair and accidentally picked out a flower, he chuckled “Damn, I told Luna she mustn’t put any flower in my hair”
 “I think you look beautiful”
 “I…I didn’t ask you to say it”
 “I know, I just feel like saying it” Potter shrugged, smiling like a devil he was, Draco felt his cheeks warm again so he tried to walk farther than the prat and-
 “Draco!” He heard Potter yelling and next he heard a loud beeping sound from a car horn, and the next thing he knew, he was spun around and pulled flushed against the firm chest of the particular Gryffindor prat, then he heard the sound of water splashing, and he closed his eyes, afraid that he would get wet, but surprisingly, he was dry.
 Oh.
 “Potter” He whispered and Potter loosened his embrace on Draco a bit, he looked up at the prat and couldn’t speak a thing, because they were being so close again. Did Potter actually use himself as a shield to protect Draco so he wouldn’t get wet? Why did he have to be such a bloody hero every time?
 “I saw the puddle and the car, so…” Potter looked down at him and for the first time ever, he saw Potter blushed. And hell he was falling for the prat again. How many times have Draco became angry because Potter arrived at St. Mungo injured? How many times have Draco secretly wish he could get over the face that made him have wet dreams almost every day when they were in Eighth Year? How many times have Draco felt like crying because Potter went out to kill fight the Dark Lord over and over again? How many times have Draco’s heart skipped a beat when Potter smiled? It wasn’t time for him to feel shy, it wasn’t time for him to put his pride and ego at the front, it was rather time for him to do what he should have done many years ago but he just didn’t have the guts to.
 “Potter, ask me truth or dare” He said, their bodies still flushed against each other, a few strands of hair fell down to Draco’s face
 “Truth or dare?” Potter asked softly, green eyes stared into his
 “Truth, ask me what I want to do now” He replied, determination in his words
 “What do you want to do now?”
 “I want you to finish the dare I gave you earlier” He finished and took a shaky breath
 “Draco”
 “Just shut up and kiss me” Draco pulled Potter’s collar and smashed their lips together, and fuck it felt divine, his body shivering from the sensation, from Potter’s tongue on his bottom lip, and when he opened his mouth, he could taste what Potter had eaten earlier, he could feel the light shining on both of them even though he closed his eyes, he could hear the sounds of cars driving by, but above all, he could felt Potter’s arms around his torso, hugging him, embracing him, his hands on Potter’s collar loosened and he wrapped his arms around Potter’s body, the git’s back was completely wet from the earlier accident, but he couldn’t care less. Draco let out a gasp when Potter grabbed his arse, fuck, those hands would feel amazing when Potter fingers him. The prat cupped Draco’s face and deepened the kiss, but just as they were about to take it to another level and fuck right on this street, Draco heard another car horn
 “Merlin’s fuck” He yelped and jumped away, breaking the kiss off when another car had passed by and splashed water on both of them again, this time it got on Draco’s arms that were on Potter’s back. He locked eyes with the Gryffindor for the million times throughout the night and smirked, knowing that he had just felt Potter’s hard on from his trousers while they were kissing and knew that they were both just excited about this, and god he wanted to feel that inside him right away, he grabbed Potter’s wrists and led him to the Apparition point
 “Pansy’s out tonight, probably shagging your best friend Granger right now, so she won’t be back until morning” He suggested “So…want to have another dessert at my flat?”
 “Only if the dessert is you” Potter pulled the blonde flushed against his broad chest and Draco laughed
 “You idiot, it was already emphasised” And with that, they Apparated away with a loud pop.
       *
       “Your house looks so nice” Potter said as he walked in Draco’s house with him
 “The light is on…weird” Draco mumbled and yelled when he saw two figures on the couch
 “Oh my god Pansy!” His voice went high and Pansy jolted, breaking off her kiss with Granger
 “Draco! Why are you here?”
 “Why are you here?” Draco snapped back at his friend
 “Harry” Granger pushed her hair behind her ear and pushed her skirt down to where they belong since Pansy’s hand was under there just a few seconds ago, her face redder than Ron’s hair
 “Mione” Harry said, his cheeks flushed, it must be weird for him to see his best friend like this, not Draco, Draco was used to it
 “Well this is awkward” Pansy said and Hermione nudged her, Pansy stood up and pulled Draco to the kitchen counter
 “I want the house for tonight” Pansy said
 “No way! I want it” Draco snapped
 “I got here first”
 “Well you can do it at Granger’s house”
 “And you can do it at Potter’s” Pansy argued with him and Draco sighed, fine, he could do it anywhere, as long as it was with Potter
 “Fine! You owe me two times now” He glared at her and walked to Harry’s spot
 “Harry”
 “Yeah?”
 “Can we go to your house...? Pansy and…she wants to…”
 “Do it with my best mate here” Harry chuckled and nodded, extending his hand “Side Along?”
 “Okay” He said and intertwined their hands together
 “Bye” Pansy said along with Granger, Draco nodded and waved them goodbye before he Apparate away with Harry again
       *
       “So…er, do you want anything to drink?” Harry said as soon as they were in his living room, Draco nodded, suddenly it felt too awkward, he felt shy, why did he feel shy?
 “Wine is good” He said and Harry turned around to open his kitchen cabinet, pulling out two wine glasses, but before he poured the wine out, he took off his jacket, and Draco felt butterflies in his stomach, how could a man just take off what he wears and looked so hot doing it? Draco turned around, looking around the house, he hasn’t been in the Grimmauld Place since he was a kid, being back here just brought him memories, and not good ones, Aunt Walburga was kind of a bitch, Draco shrugged off his long jacket and draped it over the couch
 “Harry” He jolted when a pair of arms snaked around his torso and he was being pulled back
 “You’re so beautiful” Harry mumbled into his ear and pressed a kiss on Draco’s cheek, the blonde leaned back to get more friction, but he was spun around, he grabbed Harry’s biceps as a reflex and couldn’t react when Harry kissed him, and oh he missed it, he felt like he could be kissed by Harry forever and ever and ever…and ever. The kiss became frantic as the both of them began unbuttoning each other’s clothes, Harry’s hands trailed down to grab Draco’s arse and the blonde gasp, breaking off the kiss because Harry was squeezing his bottom like a bouncy ball
 “Harry” He moaned and heard a low growl that wasn’t his, Draco let out a loud yelp when he was pushed onto the couch “Ow! You brute”
 “Oh god, I’m sorry, are you okay?” Harry suddenly became so caring and soft, he touched Draco’s head and kept rubbing it gently, it didn’t hurt that much but Harry was definitely making it all better anyway
 “You’re a dork” He chuckled “I’m fine, I was just being dramatic”
 “Are you really okay?” Harry asked again and Draco pulled him close
 “Now listen to me very carefully, Harry James Potter, I have been waiting to be fucked by you for a decade now, I’m not getting any younger” Draco leaned up and mumbled into Harry’s ear “We’re not getting any younger”
 “Fuck” was all Harry said, soon Draco was attacked by the git’s kiss again, this time it was hotter. Harry quickly pulled the last piece of Draco’s clothes off and stopped for a moment
 “What are you waiting for?” Draco stared up at Harry but the git stayed still, his eyes roaming all over the blonde’s body
 “I’m just…watching the masterpiece, fuck you’re beautiful” Harry smiled and bent down to kiss him again, their body flushed, but Draco pushed him back again
 “Why do you still have your trousers on?” He arched an eyebrow and pointed to the bulge on Harry’s jeans “Come on, take it off” Draco felt like they were talking too much and the fucking part still hasn’t come yet, was this even foreplay?
 “Holy—…Potter” Draco gaped when Harry took off his boxer, Harry Potter was hung, he smirked proudly “I knew it”
 “You knew?”
 “I have a talent for it” Draco shrugged and pulled Harry by the neck down, their kiss was less frantic and more chaste now, Harry broke the kiss off and began kissing Draco’s jawline, and the kisses were trailed down lower, to Draco’s neck, to his pulse point, to his collarbone and to his sensitive nipples, Draco moaned when Harry licked and sucked on it. Even though the Gryffindor was teasing Draco’s upper body, he could still feel Harry’s hand slithering down and was circling his now lubed entrance. When did that happen exactly? He couldn’t remember, because Draco couldn’t even think right now, not when Harry had pushed another finger in and scissoring Draco
 “Wait woah hey” Draco frowned when Harry suddenly pulled his fingers out “Why are y—…”
 “Get on your hands and knees” Harry ordered, his eyes filled with lust, and Draco found himself yearning for more, the domination, the power that Harry has, Draco wanted it, so he obeyed, the blonde turned and got on his knees, he put his elbows down on the arm of the couch, knowing perfectly what Harry was going to do next
 “I know you’re going to say I’m beautiful again so just do what you want now, Potter” He rolled his eyes when he felt Harry was about to speak
 “I was actually going to say your arse are beautiful” Harry chuckled and grabbed his globes, spreading them apart, Draco felt Harry ghosting his breath over his hole, then something wet breached through his entrance and Draco arched his back, he leaned forward and moaned loudly
 “Holy fuck, Harry” He gripped on the arm of the couch for his life, because Harry’s tongue was doing something so sinful to Draco, so so so sinful. Harry kept rimming him, his hands pried Draco’s arse apart, going in deeper, the blonde whined, asking for more
 “Oh god, Harry” Draco cried out when two fingers were pushed in, Harry kissed Draco’s back and trailed the kisses up to his neck, while his fingers were still inside Draco
 “I’ll take good care of you” Harry kissed the spot behind Draco’s ears and pulled his fingers out. Draco almost forgot how big Harry was until he felt the head began pushing inside
 “Oh wow, oh holy w-woah” Draco leaned forward as Harry pushed in, Merlin it was huge, he dropped his head and moaned, Harry wrapped an arm around his torso and pulled him flushed against his chest, also pulling him from falling off the couch, Draco felt warm at the action
 “Faster god damn it Harry!” He urged the man and Harry obeyed, slamming in with forceful thrusts, earning loud moans from Draco’s mouth, he was pretty sure the couch was moving and shaking from it. Harry ran his hand through Draco’s long hair and pulled back a bit, causing Draco to whine and opened his mouth, Harry took the chance and kissed the blonde, plunging his tongue deep inside as he thrusted into Draco at the same time. Draco has never felt so aroused before, his skin was burning from the sensation, sweats were forming on his forehead. Draco moaned when Harry tweaked the blonde’s sensitive nipple, making him break the kiss off
 “Harry oh god please please please” He wailed, his knees have gone weak, every thrust Harry made, he could feel it deep in him, he could feel everything, Harry’s cock hitting at his prostate constantly, then he felt another hand that wasn’t his, trailing down to his untouched prick, Harry started stroking him and that was all it took to get Draco to come like he has never before. The blonde cried out, shooting everywhere on the couch, Draco’s hole twitched and that made Harry came too, his body jerking above Draco, he shuddered and came inside the blonde. Draco’s elbow went down and he collapsed on the arm of the couch, Harry still above him.
 “Fuck, that was…”
 “Shut up, Potter” He replied
 “What about Harry?”
 “You caught me at my weakest moment” He lied and heard the git chuckled, bending down to kiss Draco on his cheek
 “Want to move to the bedroom?”
 “I’m tired, carry me” He said and gasped when Harry pulled out, he suddenly felt empty inside “Harry!”
 “You told me to carry you” Harry rolled the blonde around, carrying him up in bridal style, Draco wrapped his arms around Harry’s neck to secure himself, feeling unable to hide his smile, he carried Draco up the stairs and they did it quietly, Draco spent the whole time staring at his face. Harry didn’t change much, he just got…more mature, his eyes were still as green as ever, his smile was still bright, his lips was still so…kissable, his jawline was so sharp that Draco’s fingers were touching it unconsciously, his finger trailed from Harry’s ear, down to his sharp jaw, and down to the veins on his neck, Harry turned his head and looked down at Draco
 “If I’m not wrong, I’d say you’re smitten with me, Malfoy”
 “You wish, Potter” Draco snorted, but his hand kept touching Harry’s face, he was just simply…godlike, beautiful, and touching it now made Draco feel like he was blessed, they locked eyes like that until…
 “Ow! Potter!” He yelped loudly when his head hit the wall to Harry’s bedroom door
 “Oh god I’m so sorry” Harry laughed “I was…distracted by your face” He added and put Draco down on the bed gently, the git sat down on the side of the bed and rubbed Draco’s head “Does it hurt?”
 “Yes it bloody hurts, Potter” He frowned
 “Do you want me to kiss the pain away?” Harry suggested while chuckling
 “I’m not five, Potter” He pouted
 “Are you sure?” Harry smiled and bent down, planting a soft kiss on the sore spot on Draco’s head, the blonde bit his lips to stop himself from smiling “One more?”
 “Sod off, Potter” He said and Harry bent down to kiss the blonde’s head again
 “One more?” Harry asked and Draco finally looked at him, the git was grinning like a real prat, but Draco kind of like it, made him felt like a kid all over again
 “Five more and I’ll forgive you” He crossed his arms over his chest and looked away, Harry sniggered but still bent down to give Draco a kiss on his head, then a kiss on his forehead, then he lowered down to plant two kiss on either side of Draco’s cheeks, then he cupped the blonde’s face and gave him one last kiss on his lips
 “You’re such a sap” He mumbled when they broke off the kiss
 “You made me this way, don’t you want to pay for what you did?”
 “What do you want?”
 “How about…a trillion kisses from you?” Harry’s eyes gleamed and Draco let out a laugh
 “Greedy, aren’t you?” Draco asked, pulling Harry down to connect their lips once again as an answer, because he’d want to give a trillion kisses to Harry too, the git was an excellent kisser anyway, it almost seemed that what Luna had said about fate was true, and for once he believed in it.
     The End.

You’ve rated ships before so can you rate your top five SL friendships?
Tumblr media
Okay, let’s do this 👀
(Omg, I realized making this list that neither Simón nor Ámbar have any real friends, #rip)  
I just want to say before we begin, that the Sitteo broship is not a real thing. Season 3 may have wanted to convince us it’s a real thing, but Matteo can suck my dick before he even thinks of considering himself Simón’s friend without apologizing for the ton of shit he put Simón through and doing something for him, because Simón literally helped him get back together with Luna, and in the meantime, what did Matteo do for Simón? Tell him to stay away from Ámbar because she only knows how to hurt people. Like, SRSLY, BALSANO? I MEAN, THE NERVE, THE HYPOCRISY.
Moving on– Pedro and Nico died to me as friends to Simón when they didn’t support him, even a little, with Ámbar. Or, ANYTHING. Like, I understand that they were concerned and, of course as a friend you would advise him against something that can hurt him, but what else did they do for Simón besides telling him not to trust Ámbar? Do you guys remember something? Because I honestly don’t. Nico literally left the country, abandoning everyone, and Pedro just… kept telling him not to trust Ámbar. Seriously, that was his whole friendship. Even MATTEO had deeper conversations with Simón, I swear to god. 
I’m not going to explain why the whole Ámbar + Delfi + Jazmín thing doesn’t count, I think it’s kinda self-explanatory if you watched the show at all. 
Okay, now to the list. 
1- Jim + Yam. Everyone knows how much I hate Yam, but these two really had each other’s back during the seasons. I mean, during the first season, Yam literally didn’t want to date Ramiro, even though they liked each other, because she knew that Jim was into him. That’s A+ friendship right there. Also, in the last season, they both supported each other with their auditions and shit. So yeah, they were good to each other. Yam simply sucked at everything else and Jim couldn’t hold a relationship to save her life.
2- Nico + Pedro. I guess ? They were like brothers in the first season, I mean, they lived together and everything. They could’ve been gay and dated each other if Disney weren’t cowards. Nico left and ruined his character forever, but those two were like a package deal, kinda like Jim and Yam.  
3- Gastón and Matteo. Mostly because Gastón was a very good friend and guy in general. I still hate him for leaving, but I think this was the closest the show was to portray a broship and it was quite cool from what I remember. I mean, Gastón tried to push Matteo down the right path and Matteo wasn’t a total asshole to him, so that’s A+ friendship to Soy Luna standards, I guess  😂
4- Luna + Nina. 
Tumblr media
This is very reluctant from my part, but I gotta admit that these two were good friends. Not really in season 1– In season 1, Luna was a pushy shit who didn’t leave Nina alone until she did absolutely everything Luna wanted her to do. But from then on, well… I guess? I mean, Nina helped her with finding her past and gave her emotional support with the whole Lutteo drama, and Luna… comforted her with the Gastón thing? I actually don’t remember, but I guess she did. And Luna always pushed her to follow her dreams and shit. Yeah, whatever, they were close. They were okay.
5- Ramiro + Ámbar. Because if I do not put Rambar on this list, @you-are-important-nina​ will literally kill me 😂 Ok, but seriously, did Ramiro judge her and tell everyone she was evil? No. Did Ámbar do anything against him? No. That’s as good as any Soy Luna friendship will go as I have already established.This friendship was barely even there, and it is STILL better than Lumón.
Lumón is a JOKE, don’t even try to convince me otherwise. Goodbye.

harry potter for the ask meme because I like... drama
Oh myyyy. Well since they’re books and movies, I’ll do both.
my all-time ultimate fave character: 
Dobby. He is noble and kind and sweet and unflinching. And he died a free elf.
a character I didn’t used to like but now do:
Snape. I will honestly vomit on anyone who dares say “Snape did nothing wrong” like oh please. He was a bully, an asshole, an abuser, and a creep, and he did awful things and supported a disgusting ideology and dispensed out violence on behalf of a would-be tyrant, and he managed to do some good in the world because of his own selfish, torturous desires. And his lines are snappy and witty and restrained and prideful, and he’s a fascinating character to read.
a character I used to like but now don’t:
Ron. Growing up, he was the friend I wish I’d had, irascibly friendly and outgoing and fun. But after re-reading the books (multiple times), I can’t help but feel so annoyed with Ron, particularly his inferiority complex and how it becomes other people’s problem, not to mention how insensitive he is and a jerk to others, especially Hermione. And yes, idc that in the actual books when Snape calls Hermione an insufferable know-it-all that Ron defended her; Goblet of Fire comes along and when Hermione gets attacked with acid by one of Rita’s fans, all he can say is “told you not to piss her off” as Hermione cries and runs out of the Great Hall to the Slytherins (and some Ravenclaws) laughing at her. And this is after he completely pretended not to ruin the Yule Ball for her.
a character I’m indifferent about:
Percy Weasley. He never made a great enough impact on me for me to feel his absence when he sided with the Ministry, and his parents’ sour moods didn’t make me care. 
a character who deserved better:
Cedric Diggory. Ah, the first death. Goblet of Fire really could’ve used just one brief scene near its end to really tie Harry and Cedric together, establish an actual friendship between them that would’ve made his death a gut punch, or at least reveal something about him that paints him as interesting and also worthy of being a Hogwarts champion. On my first read, I remember feeling hollowed out that a kid could die; but that’s it. He’s just the kid who died, and maybe the simplicity of that should be enough of a tragedy, but this is fiction, particularly fiction involving wizards and chocolate frogs and talking paintings and an author who insists on typing out accents for foreign characters, and I think “realism” is a bad fallback for otherwise good writing. Eschew realism for the narrative gut punch. I should’ve been in love with Cedric when he bit it and instead I thought “a kid died, yikes.”
a ship I’ve never been able to get into:
Harry/Luna. I just can’t ship Luna with anyone who’s so much more grounded than her, just as I can’t ship her with anyone who doesn’t meet her level of unflappable confidence and conviction (a la Neville). This mysterious grandson of Newt Scamander, if he’s anything like Newt, sounds like the ideal guy for her, though it would’ve been hella rad if the grandson was a granddaughter.
a ship I’ve never been able to get over:
Hermione/Viktor. I’m okay with a flame that died out. Just not okay with how intense it was presented in its canon debut, only for it to receive so little mention later, and that we never really knew where Hermione stood on her relationship with the first guy to actually see her pre-Perm.
a cute, low-key ship:
Fred/Angelina. Fred’s “Oy! Go to the ball with me?” and Angelina turning to look at him, appraising him with a lil attitude, and going “Sure” like she doesn’t care but as she turns her head, a smile betrays her happiness, that’s some cute shit.
an unpopular ship but I still enjoyed it:
Apparently, Hermione/Viktor. In any buzzfeed poll or vlog about HP ships, they don’t even get mentioned as if it never happened. Completely non-canon ships get mentioned before the “oh someone can fall in love with Hermione Granger” ship is even thought of. Also Hermione/Neville, because I like the whole “genius girl and her dorky, dimwitted and adoring boyfriend” dynamic. I also think Harry would’ve paired nicely with one of his Quidditch teammates, like Katie Bell.
a ship that was totally wrong and never should have happened:
Remus/Tonks. Remus should’ve been gay, Tonks’ role in the story should’ve been to succeed Moody as “the most badass Auror in Ministry” and become the “new” old guard. It just came out of nowhere, it had just as much “page time” as Bill and Fleur’s relationship and yet theirs was far more convincing and felt more natural despite how distant we are from the characters. Runner-up is probably George and Angelina; it feels weird that Fred and Angelina hooked up and she goes on to marry his identical twin.
my favourite storyline/moment:
Hard to pick, probably every bit of shade McGonagall threw at Umbridge, and the final confrontation between Harry and Voldemort.
a storyline that never should have been written:
Grawp. Everything to do with Grawp made me so uncomfortable. The Remus/Tonks storyline in HBP just seemed to pad on more romance to a book that was already close to saturated with romance. Ron being a jerk to Harry in GOF also really really pissed me off because it seemed so implausible that he could be that dense; it honestly would’ve been interesting if Harry had snuck down in his cloak to spy on whomever put their names in the Goblet, and his absence would’ve strengthened Ron’s doubts.
my first thoughts on the books/movies: Magical wonderful omg I love it all!
my thoughts now: Still warm, still positive, but extremely critical.

Letters to my Parents - Sunday 20 February 1994 - by Alinda
Sunday 20 February 1994
Dear mom and dad,
My Patronus lessons aren’t going as great as I would like. Draco has no problem conjuring his Patronus. The Tigress is beautiful and always drives the Dementor away. I, on the other hand, are only capable of producing an indistinct, silvery shadow that won’t do anything. It just makes the Dementor hover in place, draining me until I almost pass out. Draco gives me disappointing looks after each lesson. I think he knows that I secretly desire to hear your voices again. Professor Lupin is really proud of both of us. He told me that it’s a huge achievement for a thirteen-year-old wizard to produce an indistinct Patronus. He had complete confidence in me, that I would be okay during the Quidditch match against Ravenclaw. Well, I was, but not thanks to my Patronus, no it was Draco that saved me.
Professor Lupin told us about the Dementor’s Kiss. I don’t think he really wanted to, but I asked him what was under the hood of a Dementor. When a Dementor kisses you it sucks out your soul. It sounds horrible. You won’t be dead, just soulless. You’ll have no more sense of self or any memories. And your soul will be lost forever. Hermione once said something about the importance of souls, that our magic is connected to our souls somehow. I can’t remember it correctly anymore. Lupin said that the Ministry plans to give Sirius Black the Dementor’s Kiss when they find him. I told Lupin he deserves it. Lupin was really shocked when I said that. Draco took my hand and squeezed it tightly then, forcing me to shut my mouth. I was not supposed to know about how Black had betrayed both of you.
That same day I also got my hands again on my Firebolt. Professor Snape told us that there was nothing wrong with it at all and that I have a very good friend somewhere. I couldn’t believe it when it was in my hands again. Draco was stroking the twigs at the end, just as in awe as me. We took it down into our common room. The moment I stepped inside I was flooded by people wanting to see my Firebolt. Marcus asked if he could just touch it, to know that it’s really real. Adrian was sure we would win from Ravenclaw now with no problem since they are all on Cleansweep Sevens. It took forever, with the Firebolt being passed around and admired from every angle by the crowd before Draco and I could get to our dormitory.
Madam Hooch, who’s still overseeing our practices to make sure I don’t get killed, was also impressed with the Firebolt and gave us her professional opinion. She kept on going on about different brooms until Marcus asked if I could get my broom back so we could practice. Marcus informed us that Cho Chang was fit enough again to play as seeker in the game and that me being gay was a great advantage. I won’t be distracted by her good looks. I think Marcus thinks she’s pretty. She’s a fourth-year, so maybe a little too young for him, but the entire team agrees he has the hots for her.
After Marcus his little speech I could finally mount my Firebolt. And it was better than I’d ever dreamed. It turns with the lightest touch and seems to obey my thoughts rather than my grip. It’s so fast that the stadium turned into a green-and-grey blur. It was so easy to catch the snitch now that I had a broom this amazing. The other members of the team also seemed inspired by the presence of the Firebolt and performed their best moves faultlessly. After I got the snitch for the third time I just hovered in the air to see Draco fly and practice his moves. Because I braid his hair only at the front it still sweeps behind him when he flies and he looks so beautiful when he does. I wanted to fly up to him and jump him right then and there.
I’ve been thinking about it, touching Draco, seeing him without his clothes. Ever since Christmas. And during our Valentines date, I found out he thought about it too. We had a lovely picnic beside the lake. Draco had managed to get an order in for picnic food from Hogsmeade. It was lovely. After we finished the food we took a walk around the lake until we ended up at the Quidditch changing rooms. Draco pushed me inside and we started snugging. And before I knew it Draco was pushing my sweater over my head and stroking his hands all over my bare torso. Well, I’m sure you don’t want to read all the details. It ended with Draco’s shirt on the ground too and his hand down my trousers, wrapped around me. Fuck, that felt good, to have his hands on me. I repaid him the favour after the match against Ravenclaw and I can say it’s just as hot as having his hands on me.
On the day of the match, Marcus placed my Firebolt on the breakfast table. Most students loved how the other house stared at it jealously. Marcus was most pleased with Wood’s disbelieved reaction. They are both so determent to win the cup this year it’s has become a dangerous rivalry. I believe professor Snape had to stop the two from fighting in his class the other day. Wood thinks it’s unfair I fly a Firebolt, that it gives Slytherin an unfair advantage. Diggory, the team captain of Hufflepuff is a lot nicer. He came by to congratulate me on my new broom. He even apologised again for not realising I fell off my broom when he caught the snitch in our last game. I told him it was fine as long as he would lose all his other games. He laughed and said he couldn’t promise anything.
Nott and Crabbe had to say so stupid things before the match, asked me if the new broom came with a parachute, just in case the Dementors come near me. Draco told them to shut their mouth and pulled out his wand. Adrian and Miles also took out their wants and said it would be fun to hex them back into the dungeons. I’ve heard that Nott wanted to try out for the team this year for the seeker position and was that he’s been angry about me getting the spot without any try-outs.
The game started out good. Lee Jordan, a friend of Fred and George was commenting and had to be reminded a couple of times to stop advertising the Firebolt and focus on the game instead. I just flew around, looking for the golden snitch. Chang was a good flier and followed me around the pitch. The most fun in the game was every time I passed Draco, seeing he was in possession of the Quaffle and he would blow me a small kiss. He scored the first goal of the game and most of the goals for Slytherin after that. He’s really the star of our team and I’m so proud of him.
It was hard to find the snitch. Every time I saw it and tried to go for it, either a Bludger or Chang would block my way. Marcus yelled at me to stop being a gentleman and just knock Chang of her broom. His crush completely forgotten. I followed his advice and did a nice dive, Chang followed me and struggled to get out of the dive when I did. Then I saw the snitch and accelerated towards it. Chang was falling far behind and I knew I was going to get it. Then Chang screamed and I looked around quickly. There were a couple of Dementors looking at me and without thinking I pulled out my wand to perform the Patronus charm, only Draco beat me and his beautiful Tigress charged at the Dementors. I turned back to the snitch, didn’t even wait to watch what would happen to the Dementors. I just wanted to win this match, so I reached out and grabbed the snitch. Madam Hooch blew her whistle and in seconds Draco’s mouth was on mine. He kissed me midair to loud chairs of all the Slytherins. I knew they chaired because we had won, but still, it was amazing. The rest of the team joined us in the air and they all hugged me. Marcus kept yelling that he knew the gay duo was the best.
When we got down to the ground the Slytherin supporters came sprinting towards us, all shouting and chairing. Blaise was so happy because he had a bet going with Luna on who would win. Professor Snape was also between the students and congratulated us on the win and told Draco he showed some proper spell work with his Patronus charm. His eyes kept flickering between me and Draco and it felt like he was worried. I said the Dementors didn’t even affect me this time and that’s when Professor Snape showed us who the Dementors had been. It was Wood, the team captain of Gryffindor, together with Nott and Crabbe. Professor McGonagall was shouting at them and gave them all detention. Unfortunately, she also took 100 points from our house because of it. When Marcus saw Wood struggling to remove himself from a long, black, hooded robe he just stormed away, screaming something about that Wood was a pussy for trying to sabotage the Slytherin team.
After that day, Nott and Crabbe avoid the common room and sit alone during meals. None of the other Slytherins like it that they almost destroyed our chances to win the Quidditch Cup this year. Draco says it’s deserved after everything they did to me, but I feel sorry for them. I know how hard it is when the rest of your house hates you. I hope everyone just forgets about it soon and things go back to normal.
On our way back to the castle Hermione came to congratulate us on our win. She told me her friendship with Ron is totally history now. She never wants to talk to Ron again. He accused her cat Crookshanks of eating his rat Scabbers. She had a whole speech for Draco and I that Ron has no proof that Crookshanks had eaten Scabbers and that Ron has been prejudiced against her cat ever since Crookshanks had landed on Ron’s head in the Magical Menagerie.  When I later talked to Neville, he explained that Ron hasn’t found Scabbers as of yet and that he has solid proof. It turns out his sheet had blood on it, and Crookshanks’ hairs were found at the scene. I told Hermione that maybe Ron was right and she just yelled at me. That off course all of it was her fault and that I should just leave her alone. I think her massive workload is catching up with her. She didn’t even want to join the party we had after the Quidditch match, said she had to read a book for Muggle studies before Monday. So after our last Transfiguration lesson this week, I waited till everyone left the classroom and told Professor McGonagall that I’m worried about Hermione taking on to many classes. She said she would have a talk with Hermione and make sure she’s fine. I hope Hermione won’t hate me for looking out for her, I just miss my best friend. Remember that I was supposed to meet up with her after my last letter, well she never showed up. She had fallen asleep on her books in the Gryffindor common room.
The day after the match we heard that Black and broken into Gryffindor tower. He had torn Ron’s bed hangings. Neville told us all about it, said Black had a knife and that it was all his fault. He had lost the piece of paper with the passwords for that week and that is how Black had gotten into Gryffindor tower. He’s banned from any more Hogsmeade visits this year. I felt really sorry for him when he got a howler from his grandmother.
Ever since that night, there are more security measures. Filch is boarding up every little crack in the walls he can find. It’s kind of funny to watch. Also, we had a little meeting with our Slytherin friends. We didn’t invite Hermione and Luna, not sure if they will agree to help or even keep their mouth shut. We are working on a plan to find Black and give him the punishment he deserves. Daphne and Greg had some very good ideas and Blaise wondered if he could get some tips from his mother on how to best kill Black. Really, Blaise and his mom their relationship is a mystery to me. Who would ask his own mother on tips of how to kill someone? But more to the point, we have a plan at the ready, we just need to get all our supplies during our next trip to Hogsmeade.
Draco is really confused as to why Black went for the Gryffindor tower and Ron. Keeps muttering there needs to be an explanation as to why Black isn’t going after me. That by now Black most have realised I’m not in Gryffindor but in Slytherin. He’ll figure it out soon enough and enlighten me about it all, until then I know it’s best to just let him stew on it.
I’m going off to bed now. Love you both,
Harry James Potter.

Harry’s happy with his life twenty-two years later. He has his job as the Head of the DMLE (albeit with a bit too much bureaucratic nonsense for his tastes), his not-really wife (and her incorrigibly charming shit of a boyfriend), and his three children (plus Scorpius Malfoy, who’s somehow become the fourth child in their brood). The only thing that’s missing is a partner, though not for a lack of trying on his part. However, the assignment of one case to Barrister Draco Malfoy – a polite and cordial acquaintance on the peripheral of Harry’s life – leads to a deep friendship and the slow realisation that the partner he’s been waiting his whole life for has been standing right in front of him all along.
Excerpt:
Draco eyes him, the grey orbs narrowed in curiosity and wariness, so Harry simply goes for it with his usual aplomb: “My children adore you.”  Draco’s eyes widen slightly, the wariness all but disappearing at the clearly unexpected start, but Harry just evenly continues, “James and Lily both have always appreciated cleverness and adventure, so they’re quite fond of you.  Plus you’re the only one besides Gin that’ll braid Lily’s hair, so that tickles her to death.  As for Albus, well, it’s obvious that he skips right past adoring you into love – he thinks of you as a second father, honestly, and I can see why.  You’re brilliant with him, indulging him when he needs to be indulged, complimenting him when he needs to be complimented, and nipping any rule breaking or other issues in the bud before they can get him into trouble or send him down the wrong path.”
Harry sighs, taking a conservative sip of his wine and letting the subtle hint of honey roll across his tongue, before he continues, “And then there’s everyone else.  Gin is more than friendly with you, and Blaise is your best friend.  You’ve been attached at the hip to Hermione since you both went to your law academy together twenty years ago.  Ron even gets on with you in his own way, which I would’ve never imagined back in school.  In fact, the Weasley family as a whole haven’t a problem with you, though I’m sure you’ll never be as chummy with them as you are with me and Gin and Hermione.”
Harry takes a deep breath, trying to get this all out despite wanting to address the realisation that he can see blooming in Draco’s eyes, and says, “You’re one of my best friends.  Everything about you just fits.  You understand me on a fundamental level, and while we chafe each other in a lot of ways, and we bitch back and forth in a way that most people wouldn’t find healthy, you’re like the missing piece.”  Harry lets his lips quirk in a smile, almost shy, and adds, “Doesn’t hurt that you’re incredibly fit.  Always have been really, though I didn’t allow myself to acknowledge it until I was nineteen, for obvious reasons.”
Harry fiddles with the stem of his glass and says, “So, I guess what I’m trying to say is that I quite fancy you, and I’d like to take you to dinner if you’ll have me.  Not tonight, obviously, as I’m still rather stuffed, but...well, soon.”
At the end of his spiel, he just watches Draco process.  He’s still sitting with that same impeccable posture, one hand holding the untouched glass of wine while the other is lightly resting against the armrest.  Most anyone else would see only the impassive, almost calm countenance of the posh Malfoy patriarch, but Harry’s too close to him now to miss the little flickers of emotion that show in his eyes and expressions.  It’s rather hard to pin down any of them, so Harry simply holds his breath, waiting for the final verdict.  It’s really up to Draco here, obviously, and even though Hermione is under the impression that Harry hasn’t a thing to worry about, he’s still inevitably nervous.
After all, he’s seen a lot of friendships break apart due to unrequited feelings, and he does not want that to happen between him and Draco.  Until (if) Draco accepts his invitation, he’ll be a bundle of nerves regardless of Hermione’s words, because even despite the relatively short period of time they’ve been friends (in contrast to the long history of bitter rivals and then polite cordialness) he still doesn’t want to lose this friendship.
To Harry’s surprise – with a small sprinkling of horror for garnish, if he’s honest – Draco rather suddenly stands up, placing his wine on the side table untouched and an unfamiliar expression on his features.  Harry stares up at him, wondering if he’s ruined positively everything because Harry can’t place the emotion on his face, but then Draco says in a remarkably smooth tone, “Bed first; dinner later.”
Harry’s heart thuds heavily in his chest, mouth falling open in a likely unflattering show of shock because what in the hell, and he feels like time has stopped.  After a long moment of just gaping at Draco, who’s looking remarkably confident but has a surprising amount of nervousness in those eyes of his, Harry asks, “Are you sure?”
Draco rolls his eyes with a huff, the tips of his ears pink, and snarks back, “Obviously, you idiot.  I wouldn’t have said it otherwise.”
Well.  Okay then.
Harry stands up himself, placing his own wine glass on the coffee table, and then advances on Draco, heart pounding and his breathing already a tad choppy.  He can feel his hands shaking but it doesn’t stop him from reaching up, cupping Draco’s face and brushing his thumbs along the sharp juts of his cheekbones, eyes flicking back and forth between Draco’s eyes for any hint of unease or wariness.  He only sees anticipation and amusement though, and Harry’s heart flutters with affection.
“Anything you’re not comfortable with?” he asks quietly, needing to get that out of the way before anything happens.  Draco hasn’t talked about that one bloke he took home (Harry can’t remember his name off the top of his head) back in March, and as far as Harry’s aware, Draco’s been celibate since then, so he’s not sure what Draco’s comfortable with.  After all, Draco’s whole realisation of his queerness is fairly new, and Harry will be damned if he oversteps based off his more considerable experience.
“I’ll tell you,” Draco murmurs, hands reaching up to touch Harry’s wrists, the softness of it contrasting to the intensity of his eyes, the deep pool of his anticipation.  His pupils are dilated, half from the rapidly fading light coming through the windows and half from the beginnings of arousal that Harry can see on his face, and he can feel Draco’s breath against his nose.
Harry smiles, nods once, and then slowly tilts his head up, letting his mouth brush against Draco’s own.  It’s a bare touch, just testing the waters a bit to see if this is okay, but Draco lets out a long, lingering exhale through his nose, hands tightening against Harry’s wrists as he steps close enough for their bodies to press flush against each other, and Harry figures that Draco’s totally fine with this, at least.
Harry lets his hands wander to the back of Draco’s hair, digging his fingers into the soft, short blond hair at the back of his scalp as he kisses him with a bit more pressure.  Draco lets go of Harry’s wrists, opting instead to place his palms on Harry’s chest as if he’s feeling his chest move or his heart beat, and responds in kind.  It’s a quiet moment, both of them just exploring this new thing between them as if they’ve got plenty of time to discover each other – which, Harry figures, isn’t too far from the truth.  He quite likes this, just simple, rather tame snogging in the middle of his cosy, familiar Camden flat, full of mutual hope and excitement for the future.  It isn’t like Harry’s not aroused by it, of course, but it’s fair to say that while his blood feels heated and his skin is covered in gooseflesh, he’s not really...well, out of his mind with it.
That is, until they open their mouths in simultaneous cohesion, and their tongues touch.
The only warning Harry gets is a sharp inhale and the delicious bite of short, groomed fingernails digging through the thin fabric of his shirt before Draco surges forward, like the dam’s broken and he can’t really stop the instinctive urge for more.  Harry finds himself being pushed back, suddenly being kissed within an inch of his life – and fuck Draco knows what he’s doing with that mouth of his – as his back hits the wall separating the sitting room from the kitchen.  Now Harry feels too hot in his skin, that tongue doing wicked things in his mouth and those glorious, elegant fingers edging down to the hem of his shirt, lightly sweeping under it to touch the warm skin of Harry’s stomach.
He doesn’t even get the opportunity to respond in kind, because they separate for breath and Draco nuzzles down into Harry’s neck, pressing open-mouthed kisses intermixed with the drag of his teeth against his skin, and all Harry can do is feel, breath coming out in harsh gasps and his fingers clutching mindlessly in Draco’s hair to keep him in place.  
He can feel his hips aimlessly pushing into Draco’s thigh, which is nestled in between Harry’s legs, and his prick is steadily growing against the expanse of lean muscle, increasingly achy and becoming steadily confined in its denim and cotton trappings.
And Draco himself is letting out near-constant sounds, something between a groan and a whimper, low and rough and enough to send a solid rush of arousal to the heavy heat between Harry’s thighs.  Harry can feel Draco’s own prick growing more rigid against Harry’s hip, and it’s intoxicating, this rush of almost easy passion between them, comfortable and right.  He suddenly can’t take the separation anymore and he pulls Draco’s face up, pushing their mouths together in a heated, intense glide of tongues and teeth as he forces his hands away from Draco’s hair, letting them trail down the bumps of Draco’s spine.  When he reaches the bottom hem, he brings his hands to the sharp bones of Draco’s hips through his trousers, caressing them with his thumbs before he attacks the buttons of his shirt.  It makes Draco exhale shakily, and then they’re mutually trying to take off each other’s shirts, Draco having a much easier time with it considering Harry avoids buttons like the plague.
He disconnects for a moment so the apparently offending fabric can be pulled over his head, and then he returns to the buttons, eventually managing to unclasp all of them.  He’s too impatient to yank it off him though, opting instead to just wrap his arms around Draco’s middle and pull them flush together, the warmth of their bare skin delicious and soothing all at once.  He tears his mouth away to finally return the favour, dragging his lips against the smooth skin on Draco’s throat and tasting salt and man, and gods he’s needs Draco on a bed right-fucking-now.
He pushes, Draco stumbling a bit from the suddenness but thankfully keeping his balance thanks to his own natural grace as well as Harry’s hands on his ribs, and Harry gets out in a rough whisper, “Bedroom, now.”

My Top Ten Personal Harry Potter LGBTQA Headcannons
1: Scorbus- I feel like either most of the fandom or even all of the fandom just kind of accept this one a cannon, but since JK Rowling has never confirmed it, it gets to come up here. I don’t feel like this one needs much explanation.
2: Wolfstar- Kinda the same with Scorbus, practically all of the fandom just accepts that these two were a thing at one point. I personally see Sirius as gay and Remus as bisexual, but if you think differently, that is totally fine.
3: Bisexual Harry- let’s be honest here, Harry was kind of thick headed, and still kind of is, so it would not surprise me in the slightest if he was bi and never even knew it about himself. I saw one post a while back on Harry being bi and it just made so much sense to me. I’ll try to make this short, but the sum of it is that, Harry has only directly called one GIRL beautiful, Fleur, and let’s be frank here, that ones kind of a given, but he has directly called multiple BOYS handsome on plenty of occasions, Sirius and Cedric for example. There is also his obsession with both Draco and Snape to point to. I believe the reason he never knew this about himself, or at the very least, never acted on it, was because of his childhood at the Dursleys’. From the way they act and behave, I would honestly not be surprised if they made a very homophobic comments on multiple occasions or simply say that it was a forbidden topic and that Harry and Dudley were never allowed to talk about it. It’s not secret that Harry had a sh*+y childhood, so I would honestly not be surprised if this is exactly what happened.
4: Aromantic Asexual Charlie Weasley- This is kinda another one that the fandom just accepts and occasionally jokes about. I also accept this as cannon.
5: Demisexual Snape- Not very surprising to accept and think about after learning what Demisexual is and given that Snape never got over Lily, AT ALL, it’s basically cannon.
6: Asexual Newt Scamander- Okay I saw a post somewhere, probably Pinterest, comparing the Hogwarts Houses with sexuality’s and Hufflepuff matched up with Asexual. And think back on it, Newt may be Asexual too. Not because he is in Hufflpuff, but because of how he falls in love. With Newt, in both Fantastic Beast movies, I notice Newt didn’t fall in love with Tina and Leta��s appearances, but with their hearts and souls. He loved them because they took an interest in magically creatures just like him, and they made an effort to understand him. He does think that they are pretty, there’s no getting around that after the salamander eyes thing, but that’s not what made Newt love them in the first place.
7: Pansexual Fleur- Like Newt, I don’t think Fleur feel for Bill just because of his looks. While his handsome face was definitely what caught her eyes, I believe it was his spirit and personality that truly captured her heart. This is only backed up by the fact that Fleur basically tells everyone after Bill is injured, “I don’t give and d@m about how my husband looks, all I care about is that he is brave and stands up for what is right”.
8: Gay Hugo Granger-Weasley- He literally has no canon content for his personality or interests so that I get to headcannon him whatever the frick I want without any evidence to back it up. But in all seriousness, I think it would be a cute thing to see Hugo being scared to tell the family that me likes boys until Albus comes with a Malfoy boy around his arm, Hugo’s like “well, can’t make a bigger scene than that” and finally comes out to his parents, sister and family. Everyone of course loves home just the same and Hugo and Albus can now bond and gossip about their crushes and dates.
9: Gay Lorcan Scamander- Same reason as Hugo, no cannon content, so he can be anything I want him to be. Unlike Hugo though, Lorcan never had any doubts when it came to his sexuality and how his family would react to it. When he told his family it was without any preamble and everyone was fine with it. Luna would have totally raised her kids to be just as proud of themselves as she was, and it would be no different when it came to their sexualities. Plus, I ship Hugo and Lorcan. No cannon content.
10: Transgender Luis Weasley- As I have said with Hugo and Lorcan, we have little to no cannon content with the next generation. The best we have are what little we got out of JK Rowling and headcannons that all the fans just accept as cannon. So, I have this theory about Luis, Bill and Fleur’s son: what if he was a ftm Transgender. It was stated on his wiki page that Luis is the only know boy descended from a Velia , but what if he wasn’t a boy. What if he was born a girl, but unlike his mother and sisters who were all girly girls, he was more of a tomboy. Then when he went to Hogwarts and was placed in the girls dormitory, he felt wrong and out of place. After a lot of angst and self-louthing that did not go unnoticed by the teachers, McGonagal called Luis into her office and asked him what was wrong. Luis broke down and explained what he was feeling the best he could and eventually the Headmistress said “so you feel like you are in the wrong body?” Luis nods yes to this, “Mr. Weasley, that is far from unusual. Why do you this I turn into a cat? Because it is a comfort form for me, I like being a cat.” “But I like being a boy, Professor. I want to be a boy.” McGonagal thinks, “There is a spell that I can use to transfigurat your body to that of a male, however it will take awhile to prepare, both the spell and you. Your body will go through a change even more dramatic than puberty, I must also discuss this with your parents. It that really what you want?” Luis than nods his head vigorously and McGonagal gives Luis instructions about preparing himself for the transition as and sends a letter off to his parents as well. While Bill and Fleur are surprised at such news, support their child without a second thought and are even there when McGonagal performs the spell. Once Luis sees his new male body, he cries tears of joy and hugs both his parents and Professor for helping to get him to this point. This experience also gives Luis a drive to learn as much as he can about Transfiguration and later becomes Hogwarts’ newest Transfiguration Professor.
Anyway, those are my personal top ten headcannons. Let me know if you have any.

[weasley_1 (RonWeasley) sent a screenshot.] [weasley_1 (RonWeasley) sent a screenshot.]
[16:05] parkinson: im dead her name is my MOOD
[16:05] longbottom: damn. okay. [16:05] longbottom: what do you think it means?
[16:06] weasley_1: i dunno why does it have to mean anything
[16:06] longbottom: well, obviously you think it means something - you wouldn’t have posted it here if you didn’t?
[16:06] weasley_1: damn youre right [16:07] weasley_1: i dunno? it just feels like kind of an odd thing to ask about ? [16:07] weasley_1: especially because its not like we were talking about names today or anything [16:07] weasley_1: it just seemed like an out of the blue subject thats all
[16:09] lovegood: if i may interject? i find it very likely that sumaya is simply settling into their personality, and part of that may include an exploration of the different facets of themself! [16:09] lovegood: her*, whoops!
[16:09] weasley_1: ? [16:09] weasley_1: oh okay
[16:09] longbottom: you’re so right, luna!
[16:09] weasley_1: huh yeah that makes sense lol

[16:14] #boysforluna: :)
  everyone except sumaya [weasley_2 (GinnyWeasley), longbottom (NevilleLongbottom), lovegood (LunaLovegood), weasley_1 (RonWeasley), granger (HermioneGranger)…]
[16:15] lovegood: is everything okay, neville?
[16:16] weasley_2: oh yeah totally i just had the sudden and urgent realization that neville’s a fucking nerd
[16:16] longbottom: shut the hell up n stop ghosting u hoe
[16:17] parkinson: damn son okay [16:17] parkinson: i dont know if im more surprised tht u cursed or tht u didnt use Perfect Punctuation ???? either way im lowkey impressed good job
[16:17] longbottom: :)
  mione (HermioneGranger), nevs (NevilleLongbottom)
 [16:46] mione: Hey neville
[17:09] nevs: yeah, what’s up?
[17:11] mione: Do you think sue might be [17:11] mione: Trans or something?
[17:11] nevs: huh. [17:11] nevs: i guess i’d never thought of it but. [17:11] nevs: i suppose it’s entirely possible? [17:12] nevs: especially because she’s been wearing her hijab more often.
[17:12] mione: Yeah [17:12] mione: Wait but why would that mean shes trans?
[17:13] nevs: well, she has really long hair, and when she’s not wearing a hijab she usually has it in a braid because it’s easier to manage, right?
[17:13] mione: Yeah I know what hou mean [17:13] mione: You
[17:13] nevs: but it’s also a constant reminder that she has hair. [17:13] nevs: i mean, i was talking to luna the other day? [17:14] nevs: and he mentioned that on his masculine days he like to put his hair up, but only when he’s feeling really dysphoric. [17:14] granger: so now that i think about it in that light, it makes a lot of sense - [17:15] nevs: her hair goes into a bun when she puts it up, and it’s tight so she doesn’t have to think about it so much.
[17:15] mione: Oh [17:15] mione: Yeah that makes sense [17:16] mione: Thanks Neville
[17:16] nevs: no problem! [17:16] nevs: i probably wouldn’t go around sharing this with everyone, though. [17:16] nevs: especially because we don’t really know if it’s true or not.
[17:17] mione: Yeah of course
  hermyownknee (HermioneGranger), ronniekins (RonWeasley)
 [17:20] hermyownknee: Hey Ron

  ron (RonWeasley), luna (LunaLovegood)
 [17:34] ron: hey luna
[17:38] luna: hello, ron! is everything okay?
[17:38] ron: um . i think so?
[17:38] luna: okay! [17:40] luna: what did you want to talk to me about? [17:40] luna: i assume you contacted me for a reason? :)
[17:40] ron: haha yeah [17:40] ron: um [17:40] ron: dont take this the wrong way [17:41] ron: i know sometimes sumaya tells you stuff that she doesn’t tell me or hermione [17:41] ron: and that’s fine [17:41] ron: obviously shes allowed to make those kinds of decisions for herself [17:41] ron: but uh
[17:41] luna: she’s fine, i promise. [17:42] luna: i would tell you if she told me anything that i found concerning.
[17:44] ron: okay [17:44] ron: thanks
[17:50] luna: of course, ron.
