How about Lorcan thought his mate's pregnancy, and the reader being slightly annoyed because he has turned into a mother hen but with more knives to scare people away from the pregnant reader and more grumpy
I took it and ran... I ran...
Lorcan with a pregnant mate
Protective wouldn't even cut it. The moment Lorcan realizes that you are pregnant it is over for everyone. And it is he who finds out about the babe first.
I just picture it being early in the morning. The sun is barely out, and the horizon just starting to clear up. But Lorcan is already up, even if he has a chance to sleep in. He's so used, too used to training early in the morning. Too used to having no one besides him. No one seeking out his love. No one he would want to hold later into the day. And even if you two had been mated for some time he still finds it surreal. Still flinches sometimes, while sleep is still heavily clouding his mind, when he sees or feels your body pressed to him. Never did he feel honorable enough or worth the love but here you are, sprawled out on the bed next to him, arms wrapped around his middle as you snuggle into his side.
That would be the morning when Lorcan would sense that something had shifted. A light frown on his face as he looks down on you. The first thing that would cross his mind is that he sensed the sickness that had been keeping you in bed for the past couple of days. That was worrisome in itself, considering that you had never been so sick before. And so he would fear that it's the sign of it all getting worse. Instantly reaching to put a palm over your forehead, yet finding it as cold as ever.
Then Lorcan would frown some more. Feeling frustrated that with so many years of living, he still can't reach within his senses and grasp the core of what he's feeling. That's until he moves to hold you even closer to him, wanting to grant you the warmth of his body, knowing how much you enjoy feeling him this close. Lorcan's hand comes in touch with your side and his body freezes.
To someone passing by, even to the rest of the family, this might seem like nothing. No one would notice it but Lorcan, Lorcan knows every inch of you. He had memorized every curve, dip, mark, and scar there. His fingers slide slightly lower, moving to care for the lower half of your stomach, where he is convinced a light bump had started to form. His eyes dart up to your face as if you were there looking, ready to tell him that he isn't seeing things, yet he finds you still fast asleep.
Then it all suddenly makes sense. You snuggle to his side during lunch, yawning lightly as you hug his muscly arm, resting your head on his shoulder. You getting frustrated when Lorcan rearranged the blankets on your shared bed. The constant puking and dizziness. The lack of energy. It wasn't because you had caught an illness, you were carrying a worrier. His babe, your babe. A child.
Yet the beauty of it all would be crushed by his past suddenly swirling frantically in front of his eyes. All the fea he had killed, the tricks he had pulled, everyone he had harmed and mistreated. All the blood that coated his hands. How could he hold something so innocent in them? How could he have been a part of creating something like that? He is surrounded by death and distraction. No, he is that. And here you lay with a babe growing in your stomach.
The fear clenches Lorcan's throat and he suddenly jumps up, breath hitching. It's as if he had forgotten that you were pressed to his side at all. His sudden movements would startle you, eyes almost immediately noticing the dark mist crawling all over the room.
"Lor", you would call out softly, hand moving to run over his bare back. His muscles would tense at your touch, making you frown. You knew about his nightmares, being sure that he had gotten one now, you move up slightly, pressing a kiss to his shoulder blades as you snuggle against his back. You know that words won't bring him back, it's the touch that does.
Lorcan would reach for your palm, bringing it from behind him and over to his chest, to rest where his heart was beating rapidly. "You...", he mutters, before turning to face you, "You're with child", his black eyes now staring straight at you. Your hand would instantly fall onto your stomach. Tears welling up in your eyes when the thought of it all starts to set in. Lorcan would cup the back of your head, bringing you closer to him, kissing your temple, "I love you", he would mutter, "Both of you".
He would try to mask the scent of pregnancy with his smell from the start. Partly because he didn't want to share this with anyone yet, and since you were still rather unwell, he knew that no one would question it. However, hiding it for long wasn't something you could do. Because witho a couple of weeks, you had a bump, since well your 7-foot mate had put a true worrier baby in you.
Did breaking the news to the family went well? Haha... No. Fea males are territorial bastards as they are. Add a pregnant mate to the mix and you have a never stopping killing machine, ready to end the world. So the moment everyone breaks into cheers, Lorcan's face switches. He's too occupied by Rowan, who's clasping his shoulder to notice that Fenrys had wrapped his arms around you, lifting you slightly. The next thing you know, however, is Fenrys being pressed against the wall with a knife practically cutting his throat.
The room dies down. Rowan steps in front of you, just in case but you are quick to push past him. "Lower that right now", you growl at your mate, finger pointed right at him. Yet Lorcan doesn't back away, breathing heavily still, "Lorcan Salvaterre, for the love of maker, I swear you'll be sleeping outside our bedroom door". Someone behind you giggles lightly, but your frown doesn't ease up. Not until Lorcan steps back. Fenrys fixes his shirt quickly, not wasting a second to get away. You catch his hand as he moves to walk past you, giving it a little squeeze, to which the wolf smiles at.
A part of you understands Lorcan. For a fact most of this is primal, something he can't help. He is a protector of the family. You are his world and with so much being taken from him in the past you can't blame him for feeling the need to chase everyone away. Yet you still shake your head at him.
Not much changes as you get further along with your pregnancy. The more you show the less Lorcan lets you do. He had caught you one night climbing the kitchen counters for cookies. You had never seen the color draining from his face faster. Lorcan had crossed the distance between you in a heartbeat. Strong hands cupped your hips as he lowered you back down. "I'll tie you to the bed", he growls, reaching for the jar himself, "I dear you", you click your tongue at him. "Don't tempt me, dove", you snatch the jar out of his hands but soon the frown is replaced by a grin as your sugar rushes through your system. "I just want to keep you safe", Lorcan brushed the loose strand of hair away from your face, watching you eat. You nod at his words, "I know but I can't be locked up. Plus the dagger you put all over the room... ain't too child friendly".
He does ease up slightly around the others. He's fine with the girls being next to you and smothering you with love. It's the males he doesn't fully trust, even if most of them had been his friends for quite some years. Rowan and Gavriel had read that message. Made sure to know the limit and if they did touch you, to keep it light and back up as soon as they could so they wouldn't tick Lorcan off. It's Fenrys who had found immense pleasure in rilling up the big scary worrier.
You two had been close beforehand. Both had that crackhead energy and messed around. So Fenrys is close second to Lorcan when it comes to protecting you but it's the anger that he can light in Lorcan that gives him the biggest thrill. "Are you done?", Lercan asks, crossing his arms over his chest in annoyance. The dinner had just finished and the white wolf had been desperately trying to feel the baby kick. Fenrys lifts his head from your bump slightly, before lowering it back down, "No". Lorcan lets out a growl but that doesn't seem to faze Fenrys, because he knows that you would back him in this. "Then be done with it", Lorcan says through gritted teeth, but that only makes Fenrys grin more, "No".

next gen characters and their favourite parent 🫣
victoire: fleur but maybe only by a margin (very close, bill should not take it personally that victoire just specifically admires fleur more because they are more similar in character, she really loves her dad)
dom: bill because he let her get tattoos before she was 18 and he will brush her hair in the morning when she’s too tired to do it herself
louis: fleur because their mother would never allow louis to leave the house looking ugly and they really appreciate that
molly: percy, because they are similar in person and when he gives her approval it just makes her feel more satisfied yknow
lucy: audrey because her mother lets her get away with more stuff than her dad does, so she feels more comfortable being goofy with her than her dad
fred: george because his love language is irritating people and george will just give the same energy back without any qualms
roxanne: angelina, she feels they have a greater understanding between them and she goes to her mother for advice more often
james: ginny, he is the definition of a momma’s boy who would always go soft on her
albus: ginny, even though he feels he’s more similar to harry, sometimes ginny just saying shit as it is gives him a rare sort of calm he appreciates
lily: harry, she loves making her dad interested in anything and everything shes interested in and he’s always genuinely listening to her
rose: no. she genuinely has no preference she loves her parents the same. she is very consistent in her love for them
hugo: contrary to rose, it honestly depends on the day. ron will sneak him toffee and hot chocolate late on a saturday evening and hugo will deem him the favourite parent, the next day hermione buys him a squishmallow and she is
teddy: …andromeda
scorpius: even though he would rather keel over than ever think of liking one parent more than the other… he was closer with astoria growing up (due to their likeness she could bond with him easier), but obviously as scorpius grows up he gets closer with his dad, and he’ll have more experiences with him than he ever had with his mother.
lysander: rolf because he takes lysander all over the world to pursue his interests in geology. rolf will be trying to tame some swedish serpent whilst lysander is inspecting the pebbles in its cave and thats a normal father-son bonding time for them
lorcan: luna. lorcan has been illustrating for the quibbler since he was 13 because luna genuinely doesnt believe there is any other artist that can perfectly mirror the complexity of peculiar fantastical creatures as her son (it’s literally a stick figure)
alice: neville. she’s a daddy’s girl who has her dad wrapped around her finger. i mean, he loves her so much that he forgives her for hating gardening
frank: hannah. she forces him to help her fold the laundry with her and he hates it, but he still loves her (forcing him to help her with her chores just so she can spend more time with him, i see you hannah)
delphi: voldemort 😻😻 (she needs therapy immediately)

Hi, just out of curiosity, what do you think is the birth order of the entire third generation?
Well, I don't have it all figured out but I'll show you what I got.
In red there are the ones we canonically know.
1998 - Edward Lupin - April
2000 - Victoire Weasley - 2nd of May (technically it's canon that she's born in the early 2000s, could be 2001, but seeing the timeline of her relationship with Teddy, it's basically canon that she is born in the year 2000)
2002 - Dominique Weasley
2003 - Molly Weasley - we know she is at least one year older than Albus and Rose because Percy is at the platform in the Epilogue but not with them and if it was Molly's first year it would be weird. For how I built Percy and Audrey's story in my head, they marry after Harry and Ginny but have a kid before them
end 2003/2004 - James Potter - I don't have the exact date but James is an April aries, it's a hill I'm ready to die on (also if Ginny got pregnant in July 2003 then she could end cleanly her career with the Harpies without having to stop mid-season)
2005 - Louis Weasley - I was half tempted to put him in James' year but he isn't there in the Epilogue with James and Harry and Ginny already have the perfect two years-two years gaps with their three kids so I wanted to change it a bit
end 2005/2006 - Rose Weasley - she gives me autumn vibes Idk why
end 2005/2006 - Albus Potter - he gives me winter 2006 vibes, I kind of like the idea of Albus being born on Valentine's Day actually but it's not a headcanon set in stone at the moment
2007 - Lucy Weasley - She is the most up for debate. I really see Percy and Audrey waiting a bit to have another child, yet I keep thinking that Percy would have the trauma of the big age gap between him and Charlie. But I also really like the idea of one of Percy's kids growing up with one of George's.
2007 - Fred Weasley - I know everyone gives him James' age but George is not in the Epilogue, I don't understand the logic of mentioning Percy but not George if George was there. Also, the George in my head has some very tough years after the war and his relationship with Angelina is really messy for some years
end 2007/2008 - Lily Potter - I don't really have a specific month but she gives me warm vibes, maybe June (Harry and Ginny are both born right before being too young and having to go in the younger school year, so in my head, none of the Potters can be born between September and December. Yes, I am crazy but if you think about it long enough it starts making sense)
2008 - Hugo Weasley - Everybody always assumes that he is Lily's age but we technically don't know. In TCC he's not shown to be sorted when Lily is, but the idea of Hugo and Lily being in the same year is so rooted in my brain at this point that I usually just go with it
2009 - Roxanne Weasley
+ Bonus:
2010 - Lorcan and Lysander Scamander

albus potter headcanons
first of all, his middle name isn't severus, it's either arthur (after ginny's dad) or rubeus (after hagrid). (not remus, b/c that's teddy's middle name.)
albus is closest with their mum, before but especially after their parents divorce (which happened when they were 13)
uses he/they pronouns, doesn't really have a preference for which one is used more
runs on sarcasm
if there's a betting pool about a relationship in hogwarts - louis and lysander, for example - albust runs it. the only one he didn't run was the one about him and scorpius.
he and scorp start dating in 4th or 5th year, probably the end of 4th.
albus plays seeker for the slytherin quidditch team
they don't smile a lot, but when they do, it's usually around ginny or their friends.
people think he's really cool, and james and lily have no idea how he does it.
they're pretty close with their uncle percy
he's best friends with scorpius, but also with three other girls (ocs) named aubrey, ciera, and danna. danna and ciera are hufflepuffs and aubrey is a slytherin. aubrey and ciera are a year younger than albus, scorpius, and danna.
he also really likes luna, his godmother, and goes to her house for tea quite often during the summer
his best subject is defense against the dark arts, which is kinda awkward when harry's the teacher. his second best subject (and his favorite) is transfiguration, which is still taught by headmistress mcgonagall.
(even though they're not a gryffindor, she still adores them, and albus has tea with her sometimes, too)
albus fell for scorpius first
albus looks up to draco, and spends a lot of time hanging around at malfoy manor, usually in the garden with scorpius
they love flowers and gardening, just like their uncle percy's friend penelope.
after this mutual interest is found out, penelope helps albus redo the garden at his mum's house.
he loves magical theory and often reads about/researches it on his own time.
albus despises anyone who makes any blood-supremacist comments at all, ever. voldy is dead, guys, come on.
albus, lily, and ginny are pretty quick to figure out computers, phones, etc. albus eventually gets tired of james and harry struggling and the three of them bond over albus helping them with the internet.
doesn't like people calling him "al" or "allie" without permission. (the only people allowed to call him al whenever are his friends and his mum. the only people who call him allie are aubrey and lysander, and lysander is on thin ice for it.)
would give up the world for his friends and family, because secretly, he really, really cares.

Will you do a next gen ranking? Your least to favorite and why??
I love all of the next gen, but this ranking is my own personal thoughts on each of the characters. It’s a mix of my own thoughts of the characters and what I see in the fandom.
Teddy
I have written the least about Teddy in any of my stories. I think he’s funny and smart, he loves his family and sees the Wotter kids as his younger siblings. He loves deeply and cares so much for the people that matter to him.
He sees Victoire as his little sister and I could never ship them together, which is why you’ll never find me shipping them.
Victoire
She’s the oldest grandchild of her grandparents and always carries so much on her shoulders. She loves her younger siblings more than anyone in the world, but because of her parents and the unsteady relationship she has with them, she runs away the second she can. She does abandon her siblings, but that’s the last time she ever walks away from them. She loves Dominique and Louis so much, that she ends up naming Louis her only daughter’s godfather when he’s 13.
Lorcan/Lysander
The pair of them are kind of weird, Luna is their mum and Rolf abandoned their family when they were young to find another adventure. They’re great friends with James/Freddie/Roxanne and a year older than Scorpius/Al. They both have wild love lives, Lorcan and Dominique have many ups and downs, while Lysander makes quite a few mistakes that end with him and Becca having their own happily ever after.
James
I adore James, but he’s a bit of an idiot. He loves his friends above all, he loves his family, and he sees them as the same. Betraying James is losing the most sincere and genuine person in the world. He is a bit of partier, but also a lightweight that always makes bad decisions, and he also says things that are either extreme hurtful or able to win anyone over.
So James is a bit tricky and depending on who in the family and how old they are, they either adore him or hate him.
Dominique
She’s the gossip queen, and also the family pariah. She made one bad decision in her life and faces the consequences the rest of her life. But it makes her stronger and helps her clear her head of the trivial matters and she prioritizes those that will support and love her. She has a falling out with her parents worst than Victoire and leaves the second that she can.
Dominique stands up for herself and I admire that in her. She adores Louis and does everything she can to help take care of him, even when he doesn’t need it, because that’s what Victoire taught her.
Roxanne
She also made one mistake in her life that she pays the consequences for the rest of her life. She loves her family but has a hard time talking to them and she struggles with her self image. She works so hard to build herself that she burns bridges within her family. But even with that in mind, she will do anything for those who care for her.
Lily
The youngest grandchild of them all and a spoiled princess. Growing up in a house of all boys, she’s a daddy’s girl and knows who to work it. She is a brat, but she does come down to earth, she’s very much like her Grandfather James and that does become her downfall while at Hogwarts. After she grows from her experiences, she does mellow out and become more aware and considerate of those she thinks matters in her life.
She’s smart and funny and talented, but not everyone wants to be her and it takes her a long time to realize that.
Al
Drama follows this boy and he can’t quite figure out why, even though he knows it’s all on him. He lets James and Rose take care of him until he’s thrown in situations that they can’t and is forced to grow up and come to reality. He can be jealous and manipulative, but also the sweetest and kindest and most heartfelt person in the world to those he loves. He knows that he sticks out like a sore thumb, so he works as hard as he can to make himself seen and heard.
Freddie
So sweet and kind with trouble following right around the corner. James may be the oldest grandson but Freddie has been holding up his own little circle of cousins since the moment he was born 12 hours later. He loves loudly and openly once his girlfriend allows it 😂🙄 and he is the first after Victoire and Teddy to bring a baby (twins) into the family. He goes from child to man in a short period of time and he finds that he likes himself more as a father and husband than anything else.
Molly
She saw death taunt her at 2 years old. She almost missed out on her life and now she loves it to the fullest, she loves deeply and passionately, she cares as much as she can. Her family means everything to her, and she makes a big family with the person she loves the most in the world, even if it took a bit of rollercoaster for them to make it work. Lucy is her ride or die and that will never change.
Lucy
She almost lost her sister three times in her life and it’s effected her. She finds love young and never turns back. She’s the first to cry in any situation and while everyone around her teases her, she can’t help it, she has so many emotions that she can’t keep them all in. She’s so much fun to write and became one of my favorites early on.
Louis
He’s the youngest grandson, he’s quiet and sweet and smart. He’s autistic, but still an active participant in the family, just managing to find a spot a bit more in the background. He falls in love once and nothing will ever make him fall out of love. All little kids love him just for being as blunt and honest as they are. He’s an artist and uses his art to express himself as well as he can.
Hugo
I adore Hugo, he’s so smart and funny and good. He does have some prejudices he has to work through, but it’s more of just understanding and getting to know people that are different than him. He has ADHD and dyslexia, but he never lets anything slow him down, he works so hard at Hogwarts to be the best he can and it carries on the rest of his life.
Scorpius
So sweet and kind, so precious, this boy really turns around his family name. He’s so smart and charming and he falls so hard for Rose. They get together at fifteen and never look back. He really manages to take everything his parents gave him and taught him and puts it to good use. He is a ride or die to Rose and Al, and his loyalty and love for others puts him so high on this list.
Rose
Rose has been my favorite next gen character since I first read the epilogue. Ron and Hermione were my first big ship (big reason why both of their kids are so high up) and I just adore Rose. She smart and funny, she loves deeply, she cares to the point of breaking, definitely a mother hen to her younger (and sometimes older) cousins. She falls in love with Scorpius and that’s that, fifteen or not who cares. Rose is a character I saw myself in at eleven, but now she just a breath of fresh air to write about.
Final Thoughts
I really don’t like doing ranking posts like this, it’s like asking me who my favorite childhood pet was. I love all of these precious characters and the way that I write them, they all come together for each other when needed and they all love each other too. The Weasleys and friends all see each other as family, and I don’t like to put one under or over the other in a ranking. This list really just comes down to how much content I’ve written for each character.

hp next gen headcanons
Hugo granger-weasley, Lorcan scamander, and Lysander scamander are best friends.
Hugo is a Hufflepuff, Lorcan and Lysander are Ravenclaws.
I imagine their conversations are very interesting. They're very relaxed, chill people. Very much the opposite of Rose, Scorpius, and Albus.
I think they'd be very nice people to hang out with. Hugo is quiet but not shy, just inquisitive. Lysander is the "louder one" but even so, he's not even loud. he's just louder than Lorcan and Hugo. He's a lot like Luna, very weird and proud of it. I think Lorcan is very quiet because he is shy. But I also think he's really imaginative.

We need more next gen fanfic in the style of a marauders/golden fanfic. With like, the main ship that you’re there for, but also a million other ships going on at the same time. Like, you came to this fic for Scorbus/Darklight but now you’re invested in the Flowergoth and Lorgo side quests.

HP Next Gen Headcanons: Lysander
Full Name: Lysander Newton Scamander
House: Ravenclaw
Wand: vine and snidget feather
Patronus: irish wolfhound
Boggart: Lily and/or Lorcan's dead bodies (they are the most important people in his life)
Profession: auror
Sexuality: straight
Image(picrew):
Tumblr media
Bonus: keeps his hair shorter and neater than his brother and wears glasses. The real oddball in his family because he's a more serious, no nonsense person while his parents and brother are generally pretty chill in most situations. Animals do NOT like him, which outsiders see as unbelievable because he's related to THE Newt Scamander (fucking hates when people say that)! Everyone knew he had a crush on Lily, including Lily, accept for him. He was literally the last to know. Extremely protective of Lorcan. Not the best in social situations and has difficulty making friends because he word vomits when he's nervous and comes off as a know-it-all. Is actually a huge softie. He loves learning but he HATES studying outside the classroom (he's got better things to do if you ask him). He also hates taking tests. Loves hugs but will never admit it. Wants to be cool but is not. He grew up around the Weasley and Potter kids so they're the only ones he feels comfortable being entirely himself around without worrying about being judged. Spends a lot of his later school years fretting over how useless he is with Magical Beasts and not knowing what to do with himself after graduation until Lily reminds him that just because he comes from a line of Magizoologists it doesn’t mean he was required to follow their footsteps. He chose to be an Auror because of his aptitude with defensive and offensive spells, and because "someone needs to protect my parents and Lorcan, they're all way too soft hearted for their own good". Doesn't get along well with Rose because she seems to look down on Lorcan (reminiscent of how hermione acted around luna pre friendship).
Wand Wood — vine
Extras:
"Vine wands are among the less common types, and I have been intrigued to notice that their owners are nearly always those witches or wizards who seek a greater purpose, who have a vision beyond the ordinary and who frequently astound those who think they know them best. Vine wands seem strongly attracted by personalities with hidden depths, and I have found them more sensitive than any other when it comes to instantly detecting a prospective match. Reliable sources claim that these wands can emit magical effects upon the mere entrance into their room of a suitable owner, and I have twice observed the phenomenon in my own shop."
This wand had been sitting on the shelf for many, many years before Lysabder came along. It was created before the Olivander's had decided to focus on crafting just with the two cores we currently know best (dragon heartstring and unicorn hair), so it was something special when Lysander stepped through the door. Tucked at the back of a high shelf and hidden by dozens of other boxes, Lysander's wand began shaking in its box before he'd even entered the shop. When he finally stepped through the threshold, boxes burst from the shelf from the wands eagerness, and Olivander was absolutely fascinated when he saw the vine wand shaking in its box. People generally seem to believe they know who Lysander is due to his familiar family name and eccentric parentage, but Lysander is consistently surprising people with his goals and motivations (such as his decision to join the aurors).
Wand Core — snidget feather
"These wand cores are extremely rare due to the Snidget's protected status. Wands with a Snidget Feather core excel in Charms, Potions, Dueling, and the ability to cast spells faster than most other wand cores. The major drawback with this wand core is its inability to perform proper Transfiguration spells. These wands will bond with a witch or wizard who has a glorious and fulfilling future ahead of them."
A wand seemingly made for an auror, this one aids Lysander from the moment he first takes it up. It is much less powerful in someone else's hand, and only shows its full potential with its chosen partner. Lysander is a talented wizard, and consistently shows that. He's a powerful auror, and is always the first to volunteer for field missions if an auror has not yet been assigned to it. Eager to change the things within the ministry that bother him the most and build a world that can be experienced by everyone without prejudice (a tall order, perhaps, but he is ambitious and motivated about his goals).
Patronus — Irish wolfhound
"Irish wolfhounds are reserved, soft-spoken, and patient creatures. Those with this Patronus exhibit a quiet inner strength that helps them remain calm even in the most stressful situations. However, this Patronus is not one you should ever underestimate. While they have deep stability, they are not afraid to fight back and defend themselves if you mess with them or their loved ones."
"The AKC identifies the wolfhound breed as dignified, courageous and calm, with a famous motto of "gentle when stroked, fierce when provoked." Considered one of the largest dog breeds in the world, as puppies they're quite gangly and clumsy, but they grow into what I consider to be one of the most visually intimidating and stunning dogs on earth."
I always consider Lysander to be quite similar to the Wolfhound, in that as a kid he was somewhat clumsy and awkward, but is able to grow into himself and become a powerful and intimidating but outrageously gentle man. The statement of the Wolfhound being alert and courageous but not suspicious or aggressive feels very on the nose to me, because it seems like the ideal way to be as an Auror. Lysander is dignified, calm and very focused. He has the unexpected ability to always make the right choice during missions. He isn't short tempered or "finger on the trigger" so to speak. He would never throw out a curse or spell without thinking first.
Lysander is absolutely an intimidating presence when he's older and an impressive auror, but he's gentle with his loved ones to the point or coddling almost. It would take a lot to upset him, but god help you if you cross that line.
