"You can sleep in the spare room, in here."

"It's nice," said Rhonda.

"Lot of memories in this room. But the sheets are clean."

"Great, thanks," Rhonda chuckled.

"So, I'll drive you to the train station in the morning. I'm usually up at four so I'll be ready whenever you are."

"Hey, wait--" Rhonda grabbed John's hands. "Where are you sleeping?"

"In my room, upstairs."

"Your parents' old room, you mean?"

"Yeah, but it's been mine since--"

"Since your wife died there. You still feel close to her there."

"Yeah," he whispered.

"I understand. Lots of memories, right?"

"Right. I'll see you in the morning. Oh, and there's clean PJs in the closet."

The Flying Dutchman

The #myth of The Flying Dutchman #history #mystery

The fate of a merchant ship owned by the Dutch East India Company, which went missing off the Cape of Good Hope in 1641, was the source of increasingly more lurid tales. By May 1821, Blackwood’s Edinburgh Magazine was telling how its captain, Van der Decken, after searching vainly for the Cape and caught in a storm, swore that he would round it, even if it took until doomsday. The ship was…

18th century umbrellas

As we are approaching April which is synonymous with showers, I thought I would take a fairly visual but humorous glimpse into the use of umbrellas in the Georgian era. Umbrellas were not invented in Britain, but became popular in the late 18th century, with many initially being imported from India. An umbrella or parasol was used during the Georgian era by ladies to protect themselves from the…

A MARAUDERS KAHOOT!

(Kind of)

So Kahoot would only let 40 people participate unless I paid like $100 for a year subscription, so I redid the quiz on quizizz, which is like kahoot except with powerups (yay!)

Rules:

This link is open until Sunday (4/21) noon EST so you have until then to play!

You do not need an account to play. It's free <3

Use your Tumblr name as your nickname, that way I can announce the top 5 at the end of the week!

The top five players will get to send me a request for any microfic they want! (within reason, respecting my boundaries)

First place gets a full-length oneshot! (like 2-5k words)

You're welcome to play as many times as you want because it's fun, but if you do, I'll take your lowest score for places, just to be fair. <3

All questions are based off of facts (as in, none of my personal headcanons), so if you think anything is wrong, please let me know! I used the Harry Potter Lexicon to double-check my work, but I can always make mistakes.

However, I do ask factual questions about many fanon ships (i.e. what does "starchaser" mean) so please be aware that multiple ships are mentioned. I tried to include all of the popular ones, even if they aren't my personal favorites.

Please reblog this so as many people can enjoy it as possible! I worked hard lol.

After Sunday, I'll restart the game just for fun and leave a link on my pinned post.

Let me know if you have tech issues! I am NOT tech savvy but I'll do my best to help!

UPDATE: If you don't finish because of a glitch or whatever, I won't count the score. Just finished scores.

So much love to you all! <3

list of things that the marauders fandom made up: a summary

the marauders naming themselves the marauders. there is no evidence for it, and on the map, it is written the marauder's map. the marauder is a synonym of some sorts to rascal, raider

james "fleamont" potter and sirius "orion" black. remus (john) is the only one who has a canon middle name, actually

on that note, lily's middle name. jean, jane, jolene. the only (canon) thing we know about it is that it starts with a j

the personalities of sirius black, james potter, peter pettigrew, remus lupin, lily evans, (characters that have been given little backstory), barty crouch, mary macdonald, (characters that have been mentioned once or twice or, on barty's case, given almost little to no backstory) marlene mckinnon, dorcas meadowes, regulus black, pandora lovegood (literally dead when the series started)

their relationships with each other and the ways that they interact (enemies to lovers dorlene, best friends to lovers marylily, the very exact dynamics between the marauders and other characters, even the dynamic between the black brothers)

grant chapman

all the other marauders era character ocs

almost all of the ships (besides jily and fralice): wolfstar, jegulus, jegulily, nobleflower, marylily, marylene, dorlene, dorlily, pandorcas, rosekiller the list goes on and on

the idea that the prank has been something dramatic that had put a strain on their relationship. sirius seems to be showing no remorse about it whatsoever, remus seems very unbothered

the fact that sirius had long hair before azkaban, too. (he canonically has short hair. moody, in the order picture, described him as "sirius, before he had long hair.")

remus' scars. they are, not once, mentioned or described in canon

remus being a casanova. once again, no canon evidence. the only one of them who seems to have been interesting to the hogwarts population was sirius, who seemed "uninterested"

james and sirius being "dumb". they're one of the only characters in the series, along with hermione granger and a few others, who are described as "exceptionally bright" and "exceptionally smart"

pretty much the whole lore

"Boys?"

"Yes, Dad?" answered Paul.

"Henry, come here a minute."

"Ugh, great, any excuse to get out of these weeds," Henry mumbled.

"Henry, get over here!"

"I'm coming, Dad! Sheesh."

"I want both of you to get inside, now."

"What? Why?" Paul questioned.

"Just do it. Quickly, please?"

"Whatever," Paul muttered, heading towards the house.

"Hi," John greeted Rhonda with a sweet smile. "Sorry about the boys, they'll be gone soon."

"Why?" she asked. "I don't mind. I would actually like to get to know your sons better."

Henry watched Rhonda carefully as she said this.

"Oh," John's smile turned awkward. "Well, now I feel dumb."

"Don't," it was her turn to smile now. "It's okay, I get it; I'm a little nervous too."

John Macdonald and the ‘Queen of Scots soup’

A while ago I came across the Memoirs of an Eighteenth Century Footman (1745-1779) published in 1790, which is well worth reading. As to how truthful some of it is, I remain slightly sceptical. However, during his life John Macdonald took on a variety of household roles from postillion, to footman to valet etc, and seemed to have rubbed shoulders with many of the gentry of the day. I first…

Sirius : Someone take me to art museums and make out with me.

Remus : But they said not to touch the masterpieces.

Sirius : Well somebody's got to pin the artwork to the wall.

Marlene, on a walkie talkie to Mary: This is Marlene, those idiots are fucking around in the East wing again.
