on the subject of big snake Asmodeus this seems an opportunity to share the snakes at work that I've renamed Jazirian and Ahriman (or Jaz and Ahri)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Jaz is one of if not my favorite reptile at work she's such a gentle sweetie and loves to be held and carried around to say hi to people in the office. Ahri wasn't handled nearly enough and as a result always acts like he wants to bite me

DIMENSION TRAVEL STORY IDEA: Summary: Harriet "Harry" James Potter has travelled to an alternate dimension during a spell gone wrong (Kreacher's actually responsible cuz he cares about Harry since she's the Lady of the Noble and Most Ancient House of Black) Harriet knows it's an alternate dimension cuz she finds a newspaper stand and lo and behold, who's on the front cover? Tom. Fucking. Riddle. But not the ugly Voldemort Tom Riddle she killed. No this is young Tom Riddle who grew up FINE AS HELL.
Tumblr media
And he's on the front page cuz he's The Minister of Magic and guess what he's talking about.
Dumbledore.
He's talking about Dumbledore.
And not manipulative gramps Dumbledore whose beard is longer than my hair.
No.
We're talking about this one
Tumblr media
You know why he's talking about this Dumbledore?
Because Albus. Percival. Fucking. Dumbledore decided to become the epitome of "Be Gay, Do Crime," with Gellert Grindelwald, his husband.
DUMBLEDORE IS A DARK LORD WITH HIS HUBBY
So Harriet is obviously freaking out and does the right thing.
She goes to a pub and drinks her sorrows away in Scottish Whiskey, (Thank you, Minny)
But Harry never makes reasonable decisions so when she finds a quill and paper, guess what she does.
She writes to Misinter Riddle.
But the drama doesn't end there.
Whenever Harriet does anything, whether she writes or talks about Tom Riddle, she doesn't speak in English.
She talks in Pareseltongue.
(Cuz she and tom are the only Parselmouths. I think.)
So Parseltongue.
Harriet writes in parseltongue to the Minister of Fucking Magic on his wrongdoings in her universe.
The letter literally looks like this:
ssss ssss sssssssss ss ssssss s sss ssssssss ssssss sss sss ss ssss ssssssss ssssssss ssss ssssss sssssss ss ss sssssssss and that transcribes to 
"Dear Lord Voldemort, or should I say Minister Riddle, you are an ugly noseless hairless evil snakey bastard in my dimension,"
and cuz she's spiteful, she signs it off with "You-Know-Who"
But the thing is Harriet never mentioned her name or who her parents were.
So when Minister Riddle receives this letter, he freaks out and then does everything he can to find this person.
Not to kill them.
But to woo them.
This kind, thoughtful person has travelled from another dimension just to stop him from becoming evil.
AND THEY'RE A PARSELMOUTH.'
THEY'RE OBVIOUSLY HIS SNAKE MATE. (cuz he killed all of the Gaunts and Riddles so they're not family)
You can bet ur ass he was squealing to Nagini at the thought of having another Parselmouth in the world with him.
He's obsessed.
(He's not tom riddle if he doesn't have possessive issues and his jealousy issues are just as bad.🤭🤭🤭🥰🥰🥰😩😩😩)
Like it's not a want.
It's a need.
He needs the writer of this letter to be with him forever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and-
You probably get the idea.
Anyway, 1 year goes by.
Tom Riddle: I MUST FIND THIS PERSON AND MAKE THEM MINE
Harriet Potter: *forgets about even writing the letter* 
Tom is growing more obsessed as the days go by and then he meets a woman at a charity ball held for idk an organisation for potieneers? Potion Masters?
She's chatting up with Lord and Lady Dagworth-Granger cuz she's been working with them cuz they remind her of Hermione and she needed a job.
Anyway, he approaches the couple in hopes of talking to them and Harriet sees Minister Riddle approaching and quickly moves away to head to the drinks table.
And then lets out a breath of relief when she realises he wasn't heading for her.
She schmoozes for a few more minutes before calling it quits and heading out for fresh air.
The party is at the Dagworth-Granger's manor so she goes out to the gardens.
And hears a cry for help.
Her Gryffindor instincts push her to run towards the sound of danger.
But her Slytherin side made her hide behind the wall from where the cry of help had come from.
It was a witch being harassed by two wizards.
One of the wizards was holding her wand, taunting her.
While the other had begun to take off her outfit.
Before it could go any further, she brought the men's attention to her and with a flick of her wrist, Harriet had the men on their knees.
She then walked over to the one holding the witch's wand and grabbed it out of his hand, accidentally snapping his wrist in the process.
She gave the witch her wand back and accepted the shaky hug she received.
Harriet waited until the witch was out of sight before she turned to the men and smiled, watching as their faces fell into horror as they saw the fangs in her mouth.
(I'm in love with the prompt by a post on tumblr where  Basilisk!Harry is hugging Kneazle!Hermione and Dragon!Ron also wants his cuddles. I can't find the person who made it but I've lived by the idea that these would be their animagus forms if they ever performed the spell like James Potter, Sirius Black and Peter Pettigrew had done to become illegal animagi for Remus Lupin)
Harriet rips into their throats, feeds on them and then turns their bodies into ash with the fiendryfire spell.
She grabbed a mirror from her purse to erase the blood from her face and clothes and began to walk away lest anyone come looking for the wizards.
But, Harriet suddenly slammed into what felt like a wall.
A very warm wall.
Regaining her bearings, Harriet looked up to notice that the "wall" was MINISTER RIDDLE.
AND HE WAS HOLDING HER ARMS.
"Minister Riddle, what are you doing here?" She said pasting a smile on her face.
Shift of POV:
Minister Riddle internally sighed at being stuck in another ball instead of being at home, analysing the letter once again.
He was certain it was a woman who sent it as there was a red lipstick kiss on the paper after it was signed sss-ssss-sss (You-Know-Who)
His thoughts are cut off when Lady Dagworth-Granger asks her husband where Harriet is.
Who is Harriet? he muses but when Lord Dagworth-Granger offers to look in the gardens, Tom leaps at the chance to run away from the party.
He goes into the gardens aimlessly walking around for a few minutes, lost in his thoughts of his mysterious parselmouth when a witch comes out of nowhere and collides with him.
He uprighted her by placing his hands on her arms and looked on curiously as she seemed to freeze in place when she looked up to see that it was he she bumped into.
Tom Riddle is the one to freeze when she speaks.
"Minister Riddle, what are you doing here?" She says an innocent smile on her face as if she had no idea his whole world had just flipped on its axis.
Parseltongue.
She's speaking in parseltongue.
She's his parselmouth.
The one from another dimension.
But he had to clarify so he replies honestly for the first time in his life, in parseltongue, "I've been looking for you," 
"Searching for me? Whatever for?"
A boyish smile widens on his face before he forces it into a polite smile.
"The Lord and Lady Dagworth-Granger have been searching for you, Miss Harriet I believe you are?" He reverts to English to test if she notices the change but she doesn't.
She just replies in English, "Ah, I see. I disappeared for too long with my break from the stuffiness of the ball and yes, I am Harriet."
Harriet, he muses in his mind, no last name to give for me.
She extends her gloved hand for him to shake but Tom riddle reaches for both of her hands and turns them over to kiss them gently and forces himself not to give into the urge of nuzzling into her hands (well not yet at least) and without letting them go, he straightens to his full height to tower over her (giving him a thrill at knowing she was shorter, meaning he could easily pick her up and carry her, be it over his shoulders or bridal style) and replies, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Harriet. No last name?"
(Harriet has been wearing gloves cuz of the 'I must not tell lies' scars that cover her hands.)
Harriet smiles teasingly towards him and his cold heart thaws ever so, "I couldn't decide on a last name and I've decided I like the mysterious aura it gives me,"
Or maybe she couldn't risk using her real last name because she was from a different dimension, Tom muses in his mind, Nevertheless, Harriet Riddle has a lovely ring to it.
Harriet Potter: *staring confused at Tom Riddle as he smiles down at her
Tom Riddle: *Winter would be a lovely time to get married, wouldn't it?
I'm stopping here cuz it's a summary, not a story. Yes, I'm Evil.
Tell me if you like it tho.
I was this close *makes an inch between her fingers* to making this a Soulmate AU story.
Think of the angst that Harriet would go through all her life knowing that her soulmate's words to her are:  I've been looking for you
And it's an alternate hotter version of Tom Riddle, AKA THE BAD GUY WHO MURDERED HER PARENTS 
And think of how Harriet's words had motivated Tom his entire life to do his best to work hard (and cheat death) to live long enough for his soulmate to see him one day at a place be it a library or a gala or a hallway and ask him: Minister Riddle, what are you doing here?
Huh.
Maybe I should make them soulmates.
I need a timeline. fuck.
Um.
Riddle was educated at Hogwarts from 1938 to 1945, and was sorted into Slytherin House, a nod to his ancestor Salazar Slytherin.
Making Tom 34 cuz 1927 is the year Tom was born in if he went to Hogwarts in 1938 which would make him 11 in 1938 and 38-11 is 27 so 1927 is when he was born.
61-27=34 so Harriet is in 1961 but cuz of the time skip tom is 35 years old in 1962
Harriet was born in 1980 
The Second War technically began on 24 June, 1995, though was not officially announced by the Ministry until nearly a year later on 17 June, 1996, and ended on 2 May, 1998, at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, after the death of the Dark Lord.
Which made Harriet 18 in 1998, 24 in 2004, 24 in 1961 and 25 in 1962
 but she deserves peace so the year Kreacher sent her back was 2004 which would make her 24 cuz he's horrified that she hasn't attempted to romance anyone since Cedric Diggory.
Tbh, if he was my bf I would never love again.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But then hubby "I would burn the world down for you and rebuild a new one from its ashes" tom riddle is here and I'm like Cedric who?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But none of them compare to (long list of titles, I'll research later.) Harriet James Potter.

Happy Valentine’s Day, the Weasley twins and Draco being little menaces for me 😛
a continuation of 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31
"While Harry is deciding how he wants to die, we should probably start working on a plan for the snake," Draco says the next time they meet up. "Also we should prank Filius."
"What snake and what did Flitwick do to you?" Fred asks.
George knows the answer to the second one. "Just because he said you should apply yourself more-"
"The lack of pranking is starting to look suspicious to the school populace, so we should resume normal activity. Also I have a perfect O and the highest grade in the class, what more does he want?" he huffs. "I'm very busy ending this war, so sorry I didn't include as many footnotes in my essay as I usually do."
Draco's the only person they've ever met who puts footnotes in his essays.
"What snake?" Fred repeats.
"Nagini, she's a horcrux too, it's just that Harry seemed the more pressing issue considering no one one wants to kill him. I assume we're all fine with killing a snake. However she does make killing all the horcruxes at once a bit difficult since I assume that Voldemort would notice her missing. And she'd be fairly difficult to contain."

Hi! for the Snape asks game I propose you 1, 4, 45, 46, 48 and 49 . If that's too much you can cut it and keep only the ones you find interesting :))
thank you very much for the ask, @big-scary-bird! all of these were interesting :)
also tagging @bronzeagepizzeria here, since you asked the exact same sequence of questions.
[snape ask game here]
1. do you have a snOTP? what is it?
in an extremely cultured move… it’s severus snape/lord voldemort. i just think they belong together! once they move past the whole ‘using nagini to rip your throat out’ thing…
voldemort is obviously incredibly fond of snape - not only because he must recognise so much of himself in him (feral working-class children with muggle names and disappointing dads need to stick together, after all), but because they have a shared attitude towards magic, the defining force in both of their lives.
voldemort describes himself in goblet of fire as someone who dabbles in creating potions, we know he’s a great inventor of spells, and we - of course - know that he’s someone who’s experimented deeply with all sorts of magic, macabre or otherwise. in this, he understands snape’s attitude towards magic exactly - it’s clear in canon that one of the tensions between snape and dumbledore prior to half-blood prince is that dumbledore cannot countenance someone having even a theoretical interest in dark magic. but snape clearly does, even as his willingness to use that magic to harm and control disappears.
voldemort can appreciate that - it’s what he’s talking about when he tells harry that there is no good and evil, only power - and i can very easily picture the two of them ending up in bed together the first time when a discussion about potions theory got out of hand. you can decide for yourself if voldemort is still hot at this scenario…
it’s also clear from canon that voldemort is one of the few people in snape’s life who takes an active interest in improving it - snape must become a death eater because voldemort offers him a chance to transcend the restrictive class structure which rips opportunities away from poor half-bloods unless they have a slughorn-esque patron - which i think is an aspect of his personality which is too often overlooked.
plus - the adult snape clearly models how he speaks and comports himself on voldemort (seriously, they have near-identical speech patterns, they get a lot of the same movement and dialogue descriptors), which is cute. maybe the dark lord took him shopping for his first set of bat-like robes. (he did - he was getting sick of the brown corduroy bell-bottoms which snape was obsessed with in the seventies.)
and - of course - the reason that snape is the only death eater to whom voldemort teaches the principle of unaided flight is because they were going on lots of romantic midnight swoopings over the countryside. i love that for them.
4. do you think snape remained a virgin?
i don’t think it matters either way, but i think it is worth interrogating why saying no to this question often provokes the response that, if snape had slept around, then his love for lily would no longer be as profound or legitimate as it would have if he’d never had anyone else since he couldn’t have her.
the harry potter fandom has a real issue with conflating sex and love [just see any discussion of whether voldemort actually slept with bellatrix, even though it’s canon that he did] and with having slightly puritanical views on people having meaningless sex for no reason other than the fact that they enjoy it [it feels like every time i see a character written as promiscuous in something, it’s always because they have a reason™, usually a traumatic one, rather than because fucking is fun]. but indulging in sex for physical pleasure and pleasure alone does not make you any less capable of being stalwartly committed to the mission you took for yourself in honour of the dead love of your life. it’s just sex.
so no, i don’t think snape remained a virgin. all teachers need to blow off steam every once in a while, and i think he probably had a sequence of one night stands while on the piss in knockturn alley which meant nothing to him. i’m sure his capacity for self-loathing meant that he felt very bad for doing so, but that sounds like a him problem.
[as an aside, it also seems to me that the scepticism about whether snape had a casual sex life is also rooted in the fact that he’s canonically unattractive - whereas the fact that many people headcanon sirius, who i think was actually infinitely more likely not to have slept with anyone, since he spent his teen years pining for james and his sowing-wild-oats years in azkaban, as a womaniser is entirely because he’s described as hot - but ugly people get to bone too.]
45. what is your opinion on snape's sexuality?
snape’s a bi disaster.
i am convinced, for example, that his canonical vibe with sirius is caused by the fact that he fancies him - he loves acting up in an attempt to get sirius’ attention (him making excuses to pop into grimmauld place to neg sirius about how he’s spending all his time cleaning… immaculate), despite the fact that the way he behaves around lupin suggests that he ought to be avoidant of him, given their history.
plus, his obvious thing for powerful men is what gets him into trouble in the first place. lord voldemort only had to flutter his eyelashes a couple of times and snape was done for… and when it comes to dumbledore, well you know what they say about men with supremely powerful wands…
46. which of the marauders do you think snape could have gotten along with?
sirius, for the reason outlined above.
48. did you feel that snape was the "good guy" even before the reveal?
answered here - the tl;dr is that i did because i'm built different.
49. do you prefer tall!snape or short!snape?
snape is, canonically, a short king. he’s five-eight and feral and i love that for him.

Severus (Prince) Snape - an interview by Lucius Malfoy according to the current Witch Weekly's edition questionnaire
L: So Severus, what kind of a princess are you?
S: What kind?🤨
L: Do you have magic hair?
S: No...😒
L: Magic hands?
S: Depends who's asking.😏
L: Do animals talk to you?
S: Thankfully no.
L: Were you poisoned?
S: If you count Nagini's attack as one.
L: Cursed?
S: More times than I can count.
L: Kidnapped or enslaved?
S: No.🤨 Lucius, are you alright? Shall I ask for Narcissa?
L: Then I have to assume you made a deal with an underwater sea witch who took your voice in exchange of a pair of human legs?
S: That's not what I'd call the Dark Lord or Albus, although our deals were different than what you assumed.
L: Did you ever had true love's kiss?
S: 😳Can we move on to the next question, please, Malf?
L: Do you have daddy issues?
S: My mother isn't alive, why would you think about daddy issues.
L: Neither does mine.😭 (wiping a tear off his cheek) And now for the million galleons question. Do people assume that all your problems dissapeared because a big, strong man entered into your life?😏
S: If you needed praise you should have asked me from the beginning instead of torturing me with this questionnaire.
L: You ARE a princess! (opening his arms, magazine still clutched in one hand) Let this big, strong man give you a hug and a true love's kiss
S: 🫠

Rejoice
Regulus Black x Fem!Reader
Summary: You, Regulus, and the marauders are on a very dangerous mission to destroy the Horcruxes. The whole situation of the mission and of the brutal war were affecting your mental health drastically. Luckily, Reg is the best boyfriend in the world, and he knows exactly what to do to make you feel better.
Word Count: 1.9 K
Warnings: Canon level of violence, mentions of mental health/mental health issues and people feeling down because of the first wizarding war.
A/N: The sixth horcrux (Harry Potter) was accidentally made in 1981 and the seventh one, Nagini, was created after Voldemort's return between 1994 and 1996. This story takes place in 1979, so there were only five horcruxes. The song O'Children is mentioned. Let's all pretend it was released at the 70s and not at the 200s.
Tumblr media
1979. 
The wizarding war was in full swing. Muggle-borns and "blood traitors" were murdered daily by Voldemort and his sick followers. The Order of the Phoenix had been formed a few years ago and you were finally able to join on the recommendation of your cousin James after your graduation. 
Being a member of the Order of the Phoenix was suicide. You all had nightmares, and peace was something none of you knew when friends were injured and even killed weekly. But you were fighting for a better world, and you wouldn't hesitate to lay down your life in the cause of respect for Muggle-borns.
Almost a year after joining the order, you decided to visit Regulus Black. You had grown apart in the middle of the seventh year and due to the missions, you didn't have time to try to rekindle your friendship with him. 
But today would be the day you would corner him at his house and the two of you would talk like the civilized adults you were.
Upon knocking on the back door of Grimmauld Place, You were quickly answered by Kreacher. The house-elf looked disappointed and then furious at the sight of your face (despite the hood you wore for security) and so he hurriedly pulled you into the mansion and locked the door. 
''You shouldn't be here, brat. What the hell do you want?'' Kreacher demanded in his usual annoyed and impatient tone. But today there was something else in his posture. He seemed to be… restless.
 ''Goodnight to you too, Kreacher . I…'' You took a deep breath before completing the sentence. ''I came to talk to Regulus.'' 
''He's not at home. You interrupted my service for nothing.'' You frowned. The Ex-Slytherin's source of income was the generous inheritance of the Black family. Which meant he didn't work and couldn't be away on business. And you were aware that you were Regulus' only friend. Why the hell he wasn't home at 9:00 pm on a Thursday?
You immediately felt a bad feeling about your friend's whereabouts and suddenly your stomach dropped.
 ''Kreacher... W-where did Reg go?'' You mustered up the strength to ask. Yours hands clenched your cloak to stop them from shaking.
 The elf hesitated before answering. 
''That's none of your business, you nasty blood traitor.'' Kreacher ALWAYS looked people in the eye when talking to them to intimidate them and show he wasn't a submissive elf domestic. So the fact that he was avoiding your gaze like the plague made you freak out internally. 
All your life you have treated all house elves around you with respect and dignity. 
But today you didn't have time for that. 
''Listen here you bastard elf: Tell me where my friend went before I break your neck!'' You weren't an aggressive person and the elf who was currently being lifted several inches off the ground by the collar of his robes knew it. So seeing you threatening him like that both infuriated him and sent an immense wave of relief through his body. 
Kreacher did not verbally respond to you. Instead, he snapped his fingers and conjured up a small black notebook and handed it to you. You immediately put the Elf down and started reading the contents of the notebook. 
He was a death eater?!?! Voldemort has Horcruxes and apparently, Regulus stole one of them?!?! HE WAS GOING TO A LAKE FILLED WITH INFERNIS?!?! 
Regulus what have you done? 
* * * *
Several hours later, You heard the sheets shifting as Regulus regained consciousness. You were still reading a book about Horcruxes that you may or may not have stolen from Dumbledore's office a few hours earlier. You had your back to the boy in your bed. Your tea was still hot and your hair was freshly washed.
 ''Y/N…?'' He asked in a voice groggy with sleep. 
You finally got up from your desk chair to look at Regulus. 
''Would you like to explain to me why I found my school friend with half his forearm bleeding a terrifying amount of blood from having his skin ripped off and being dragged by extremely dangerous undead beings who intended to kill him?'' You asked calmly. With an expression showing nothing. 
Regulus looked away and concentrated on staring at his lap. A few seconds later, his shoulders started to shake and he buried his face in his hands. 
You sat next to him on the bed, but you didn't dare touch him because you didn't wanted to make him uncomfortable. 
''You didn't have to go through this alone, Reg. I promised I'd always be here for you, remember?” Yours voice was low but firm. Your confirmation that he heard you between his sobs was feeling Regulus's arms around your waist and his face buried in your chest, soaking your shirt. You stroked his back and kissed the top of his head, making the poor wizard feel loved for the first time in a long time. 
* * * 
After Regulus' arm was treated by mediwizards that supported the Order of the Phoenix, a meeting with all members of the Order was scheduled and Regulus shared everything. How he was forced by his mother to become a Death Eater before he turned 17; How he realized he was on the wrong side of the war; how he discovered that Voldemort had six Horcruxes; how Regulus stole one of them intending to destroy it and how he ripped the skin off his own arm so that Voldemort could no longer control him.
 When the young wizard finished speaking, no one had the heart to say anything. Who broke the dead silence was Dumbledore, after long minutes of reflecting on the new information about Voldemort. 
''I'm sorry for everything you've had to go through, young Black. I consider you worthy of my trust and I hope that of everyone in this room as well.'' 
The next to speak was Remus Lupin.
 ''Do you know what are the other Horcruxes, Regulus? Killing Voldemort is our only chance to win this war and we need to do it as soon as possible."
 Regulus nodded and listed the other three Horcruxes. Aside from the locket, he was only sure of the location of one of the Horcruxes. Sirius couldn't disguise his laughter when he found out that The Dark Lord™ had a diary. 
Quickly, everyone began to get involved in the operation to destroy the Horcruxes. Some members made suggestions f where the other two Horcruxes might be, other had theories of how to destruy horcruxes, and the room started to get insanely noisy. Dumbledore interrupted them, saying that he had already made the more suitable plan.
 * * * 
Two months. 
That was the time you spent hunting Horcruxes and running away from Voldemort and the Death Eaters who quickly discovered your plans. None of you could have guessed that destroying a diary (which you and Peter had stolen from the Malfoy's Manor) and a locket that was thousands of years old could be so difficult to destroy. 
Currently, you were in an abandoned cabin in a forest. The diary was tucked away in Sirius' backpack and the one wearing the locket today was James. It was a bad idea because he cried himself to sleep because he missed Lily; the wife he loved so much and that was pregnant and alone because her husband was forced to leave her. 
None of the rest of you were okay either. 
Sure, good things had happened. Regulus confessed to you how important you were to him and you started dating. Honestly, he was a much better boyfriend than you had imagined. But Sirius still felt terrible for everything he thought bad about his little brother. And knowing that he could have saved Regulus a lot of suffering if he hadn't left his brother alone in that hellish house was eating him alive. 
Remus needed to walk several kilometres into the forest on full moon nights so he wouldn't risk hurting anyone. And only one of the Marauders could go with him because they couldn't leave you and Regulus in charge of some of the wizarding world's most dangerous objects alone. Consequently, Remus was more exhausted and tired than usual. It hurt so much that you couldn't do anything to help your friend. 
Peter did not have a good relationship with his family. The Marauders were all he knew of affection and he felt helpless watching them suffer and being so impotent. He always felt like the most useless of his friends, but not being able to ease the pain of people so important to him was killing him. 
Now you… Well, you had everything to lose. Your dream of being a Quidditch player, Your loving family, Your friends, Your boyfriend and Your own life. Nightmares of being tortured or seeing someone you loved being killed in front of you kept you awake for days. 
After soaking his pillow, James was finally able to sleep. Everyone eventually made it, but you were tossing and turning in your bed for hours. Finally giving up, you put on a coat, grabbed your wand and silently left the hut. 
You mumbled lumos and found a log to sit on a few yards from the hut and finally allowed the tears to roll down Your cheeks. You barely had the energy to sob. 
You don't know how long you stayed there, but apparently, it was long because a voice that made your stomach fill with butterflies brought you out of your depressing thoughts.
 ''There you are, sweetheart.'' Regulus didn't speak too loudly so as not to scare you, but his voice was firm to try to reassure you.
You were surprised by the small genuine smile that formed on your face when you saw him.
''Sorry, Reg. I just needed to be alone for a while. Didn't mean to worry you.''  He knelt in front of you and kissed your cheek. 
''No need to apologize, Y/n. I understand.'' He replied, stroking the place where he kissed you.
A few minutes passed in comfortable silence before he asked if you'd like to vent to him. Everything you've been holding on to for those weeks came crashing down as you buried your face in the crook of your lover's neck. You tried to explain what you felt, but the sobs prevented you from speaking properly. You stayed like that for several minutes until your breathing calmed down and you started placing kisses on Regulus' jaw, making him laugh. 
Suddenly, he gently lifted you to your feet and wrapped his arms around your waist, forcing you to bury your face in his chest. Reg put yours arms around his neck and he started humming a song softly that you immediately recognized. 
Sirius was a big fan of muggle rock and you liked the songs he made you listen to so much that you showed them to Regulus. His favourite band became Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. O' Children was his favourite song and it was the one he was humming as he cradled you in his arms to dance. 
At that moment, the war and Voldemort did not exist. You didn't risk losing your family or your friends because Regulus knew how to make you feel protected like no one else ever did. You loved him. You loved him desperately and you needed to tell him before it was too late. 
''I love you.'' 
You both froze as you realized you'd said the L-word at the same time, and immediately looked into each other's eyes, shocked, before bursting out laughing like children, happy and relieved. 
He connected his lips with yours and the world became beautiful again. Not perfect or safe, but hopeful.

what are your hcs about both of harry and tom’s sexuality like are they bisexual or gay? And what do you think will tom be okay with having more than one partner? Like yk in those Voldemort wins au where he has his own imperial harem. I love the way you understand his character and love reading you rambling about him.
An opportunity to ramble about my favorite characters' sexualities?! I love you, anon, alksjdlkfj. 💞
My Intensely Personal HCs
Tom Riddle is completely gay. I use his canonical campiness as the basis for this characterization, and run with it.
I definitely don't align with the idea of him wanting an imperial harem nor any sort of Death Eater bukkake situation. I think that asserts a certain level of primal indulgence he doesn't actually have; his humanness is something he represses.
Which is why I see him, in love, being like he is in life—a collector, a possessor. Share? Never. I think Tom would tolerate his object of affection having another partner only if he was actively home-wrecking in the situation, but ultimately, his end-goal would be to steal them entirely.
As for Harry, I'm happy to read and write him as gay or bisexual, or even heterosexual, depending on the context. I think canon gives us room to work with the idea of him liking girls well enough, but then, catching feels for a man without even realizing it. I think there's also room for 'late bloomer gay' since he likes sporty girls. (:
He also has zero polygamous energy imo. He wants to marry young, start a family young, have the family he always wanted.
My (Cursed) Canon Opinion . . .
I they're both just boring heterosexuals... I'm so sorry! 🙈
Tom Riddle reads nearly asexual—I certainly don't think sex ranks high in his priorities—but I see some fedora-tipping energy in there, some, "You're not like other girls," directed at Bellatrix and perhaps Nagini, if he knew her, pre-transformation.
Reading his dialogue in Chamber of Secrets, he actually gives me the very specific vibe of a boy who really thrives being bossy in his little fraternal network, but is actually quite awkward with women. Zero rizz, and definitely going to get embarrassing levels of jealous over dumb shit. He's got some serious mommy abandonment issues.
And Harry's just a little dweeb who gets crushes on Quidditch girls, isn't he? I love to poke fun at him pointing out the handsomeness of Tom Riddle in the narration as much as the next gal, but I don't see it tipping him into the bisexual category.
I'm sure he has a few wayward dreams and fantasies but nothing that would transpire to a real relationship with a man, haha.

Seeing your reply on the HP books, what disappointed you in DH? What would you have changed in it? Less deaths?
On HBP and why I didn't care for DH: get ready for a long post/ran that the tl; dr version is: *it makes narrative sense but not logical sense and I wanted both*
I didn't *love* the intro of the battle of the seven potters, to begin with. Obviously I know that we needed some introductory action to get going, and what's better than a battle where both Hedwig and Mad-Eye die? Even warriors die, childhood ending, etc. It makes *sense* for the narrative, but not in-world. Just make an illegal portkey. Apparate, ffs. Put Harry under the invisibility cloak, side-apparate him to Diagon Alley, and then re-apparate to a safe house, if you want to avoid the trace issue. Or illegal portkey that noise because Harry's already wanted and so are the others. Remus would've been a great pick. Everyone hates werewolves. (and ok, I get why they did what they did, because Snape put it in Mundungus' ear to keep Voldemort's trust, but also, it just seems like shoddy thinking it through, JKR's inconsistencies drive me crazy).
Grimmauld Place and Yaxley. Ok, so this is also going back to JKR inconsistencies. If Snape was Secret keeper (as were all Order members after Dumbledore's death) why wouldn't Voldemort just ask Snape for the location and ambush them? But ofc Snape is protecting Harry, there's that tongue-tying thing so Snape couldn't say, I suppose, but still. Part of me wonders why Hermione didn't try to obliviate Yaxley, or stun him, and then ask Kreacher to come with them so they wouldn't starve. Kreacher would've been delighted to hunt for horcruxes. Or why Hermione didn't apparate them to nowhere first, shake Yaxley off, and THEN go to GP? But again: hero's journey has to be alone, character development, whatever. I'm just saying it doesn't make sense.
Camping: so boring. Harry Potter and the Haunted Camping Trip. Pass. I get it; it's boring to them, it's boring to us, it's dry, it's dull, it's reflecting what the characters are going through. But at the same time, why didn't they call for Kreacher? Or Dobby? And why did they wear the locket when they could have shoved it in the beaded bag, put a sturdy string around that, and worn the beaded bag around their necks? Give them some kind of protection? Sigh. It's for narrative purposes, not sense-making purposes. Or give us more deaths during that process, they come across some cool dead bodies of Muggleborns and it freaks them out.
The deaths: ok, let's start with my clear frustration with Remus and Tonks dying (for narrative purposes, I also get, orphaned child, last Marauder is gone, Tonks is young and dies early like Alice Longbottom, whatever). Andromeda Tonks is left with Teddy. Wtf, did JKR forget that Andromeda existed when she killed Remus and Tonks off? Did she realized she killed a whole family? What? Narrative purposes, I say to myself, but also want to scream.
I would've had more deaths, but different ones. Instead of Fred, I'd have killed Bill and Molly. Fleur would be newly pregnant and not know it, so Victoire would still exist, but Bill dying would bum everyone out, and have a fatherless child. Then Molly--just imagine Arthur without her. Do it. Kill the next closest mother figure Harry has. Have Neville kill Bellatrix instead, but make it more of an accident. Ron will kill Nagini. That's the stuff right there. Or hell, get Andromeda Tonks all up in there, have HER kill Bellatrix, and die in the process. Leave Tonks with her little family. Oh, and as an added kick, set the epilogue only a year later, have it be Arthur's funeral because he died of sadness or whatever but things are looking up elsewhere.
That epilogue. While I'm ok with it giving us the Potter kids and Tedoire, I would have loved to have left it to the imagination. You know what would've been good? Arthur's funeral, but have all the canon couples be together as engaged or newly married, Fleur's holding fatherless Victoire, and Arthur is joining his oldest son and his wife in the grave. Lupin and Tonks are there with Teddy and then they go see the Tonkses' graves to put flowers there or something. Remus wasn't really a father figure to Harry but Arthur was. Kill all the real parent figures. Get Vernon and Petunia in the ground too just for shits and giggles.
Anyway. That turned into a much bigger rant. I was more or less dissatisfied with the how of everything, a little bit of the why, and I like the how and why to be congruent. Why things made narrative sense was fine enough, but let me scream about how dumb the camping trip, secret keeper rules, battle of seven potters, and screech about Remadora.
at the end of the day they're all fragments of fiction that are vehicles to tell a story, and while I understand the story that was ultimately told, it doesn't mean I like the ending or that I think it was satisfying for the saga that came beforehand.
that's what fanfic is for!

ℚ𝕦𝕖𝕤𝕥𝕚𝕠𝕟𝕚𝕟𝕘 𝕐𝕠𝕦𝕣 𝕃𝕚𝕗𝕖 𝔻𝕖𝕔𝕚𝕤𝕚𝕠𝕟𝕤: ℙ𝕚𝕟𝕜 ℍ𝕖𝕒𝕣𝕥𝕤 𝕒𝕟𝕕 𝔹𝕦𝕥𝕥𝕖𝕣𝕗𝕝𝕚𝕖𝕤
Tom Riddle x GenderNeutral! Reader Genre: Romance, fluff, humour Summary: We all love Tom Riddle. But let's be honest, having a child with him would be one of the worst choices you could make.
-> {𝑵𝒂𝒗𝒊𝒈𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒕𝒐 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑸𝒖𝒆𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑳𝒊𝒇𝒆 𝑺𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒔}
The carrot jelly incident wasn’t as bad compared to what Tom suffered the next month.
“Did you do this to daddy’s robe?”
In his hand, Tom held his black robe, used most often for the imposing theatrics needed at Death Eater meetings. The robe was torn into shreds and smeared in what looked like red heart stamps and green butterfly glitter.
(y/b/n) merely giggled, not even having the decency to look him serious in the eyes. “No, Nagini.”
Tom’s eyes flickered to the snake by (y/b/n). Nagini, who obviously does not have any fingers to create such a masterpiece, merely blinked a few times under his strict eyes, and shook its head.
“Oh Tom, I swear to god, if you believe her, our 10 years of friendship is done,” she literally and figuratively hissed.
For all its reputation, Tom knew the snake wasn’t lying.
It was his daughter that was the snake.
It was then when (y/b/n) decided to take advantage of the befuddlement in his eyes and stamp a heart on his right cheek.
Now that, truly broke him.
—--------
“I thought you’d be proud of her,” you said nonchalantly. You were washing the dishes as he made tonight’s dinner. “She takes after you.”
“Yes (yn), but she lied to her own father,” Tom spat venomously as he continued to chop the onion. The way he banged on the cutting board with his grip around the knife, his knuckles turning white as he glared at the onion, was a sight to behold. “Those innocent eyes held no remorse, (yn). No remorse.”
“Are you crying, Tom?” You thought you spotted him wipe a teardrop away.
“It’s this darn onion,” he mumbled darkly through gritted teeth, his eyes red.
You opened a cabinet, and took out a towel, wiping away the tears streaming down his cheekbones. “There there… it’s healthy to cry.”
Tom only leaned into your towel defeatedly and sobbed.
—----------------
“For fuck’s sake… what is in that thing,” Tom was muttering darkly as he scrubbed his cheek in the mirror. His skin was reddening under the friction, but all it did was smear the pink even more. Tom was not going to the Death Eater meeting tomorrow with this washed-out heart on his cheek.
“So the whole lying and manipulation… you don’t have any issue with it?”
“No,” at this point, Tom had entirely given up on the dirtied cloth and threw it behind him. “Do you?”
You blinked a few times, speechless. “Yes! Obviously!” As much as you loved Tom, you had no intention of raising a miniature Tom Riddle. You’ve heard enough stories to assume how nightmarish it must have been for Mrs. Cole to raise Tom. 
Tom merely hummed at your outburst. “Maybe it’s not too late to take a parenting class, yn,” Tom chugged the last sip, stood up, and left for bed with a few pats on your back.
The next day, Tom called in sick.

The Afterlife of Eileen Snape and the Reunion with her only son
Pairing: Eileen Snape & Severus Snape, Eileen Snape x Tobias Snape, Severus Snape x Lily Evans (one-sided), Lily Evans x James Potter
Warning: Characters Death, Drinking, Dark Thoughts, Abusive
Tumblr media
Tobias is hitting his wife again, as always. Severus is in his room doing his summer homework. He really wished that his father wasn't a Muggle...or better yet not his father.
Tobias picked up his empty beer bottle. "WOMAN! I TOLD YOU TO BUY ME WINE! AND WHY THERE IS NO WINE AGAIN? HAVE YOU DRINK IT?!" He demands angrily. He is drunk.
"They have no wine in the shop! And you have used up all our money for alcohol! We don't even have money for food !" Eileen shouts back.
Tobias is very angry now. He used the bottle in his hand to hit Eileen hard on the head. Eileen immediately fallen onto the ground and screams in pain. Blood is seeping from her head.
Severus rushes out of his room when he heard his mother screams. He immediately saw the blood. He tried to help her. But Tobias use the bottle to hit Eileen continuously. And Tobias ignored Severus's protest and screaming.
The last thought in Eileen's mind was, "Severus my son. Be safe. Be strong. I love you."
—🦇
It is 1981's Halloween today. Eileen looks at the world of the living. Her heart has broken when she knows her son became a Death Eater. But in her mind, she always know that her son Severus is brave and loyal. He knows what is wrong and what is right. She really missed him.
Her son is her everything. She is sad that she can never protect him from harm again.
She watched the Potters are murdered. And her son goes to Godric's Hallow. And her heart breaks when he saw Lily is dead. He hugs her dead body and cried. He wished he never was a Death Eater, never called her a mudblood.
She watched as her son stopped crying. In the later years, she never saw him smile again. To say the truth, she had never seen him smile since he went to Hogwarts. Severus seems heartless because his heart died .
—🦇
Today is 2 May 1998, Eileen watched her son protected Lily's son Harry over the years. She watched as her son went to the Shrieking Shack, the shack that nearly caused him killed by a werewolf.
Her eyes widen as she saw ordered her once handsome classmate, Tom Riddle, ordered his snake Nagini to attack him. She cried as Nagini continuously to attack her son.
"I regret it," said Voldemort coldly, and Disapparated.
Severus stood there, his knees shaking. They gave way and he fell to the floor, lay sprawled on the ground, breathing hard and clutching the bloody cuts in his neck.
It was painful. White-hot searing pain was spreading through his whole body. He blinked his eyes. He was going to see Lily again. He would no longer need to do this. He didn't want to fight anymore.
And suddenly there was a ripple in the landscape, and Severus thought it was his own blurring vision, until he realised who stood there.
Harry Potter crouched gently at his side, and held his hand gently on Severus's neck. It subsided the pain.
He wanted something suddenly. Pain and longing burst through his veins. He thought of all the happy memories he'd shared with Lily before James had took her. And he forced them through his mind.
White memories began trickling from him. With great difficulty, he burst words out.
"Take it...take it..." The words issued from his throat, barely audible, but Harry understood, and took the thoughts with a flask.
Severus had no blood left in him. There was only one thought in his mind: Lily.
He burst with longing again. The last thing he wanted to see...he did not want to see those glasses, nor that black hair, nothing about James. He forced his hand up and pulled the glasses off, pulled Harry closer.
And he stared into those dazzling green eyes, Lily's dazzling green eyes, and he almost smiled, Lily, Lily, he was going to see Lily, mother...and Dumbledore...
Then he sees no more....and his eyes are closed forever....
— 🦇
When Severus opened his eyes once again, he saw his mother standing there, greeting him with a watery smile. He missed his mother, he runs over her and hugs her.
He looks around. He saw Lupin with his wife,Tonks. "Oh no...their son is an orphan now..." he thought sadly. He saw Fred Weasley as well. Sirius Black, James Potter and finally....Lily...beautiful Lily.
He looks at his beautiful green eyes. He breaks away from his mother's hug and walks towards Lily.
"I am sorry...." he told her. Lily just smiled at him. "Thank you for saving my son Sev." She said.
Eileen looks at his son and smiled. They are all finally reunited once more...even it means his death.

maybe I need to write leta not actually being dead into my fic because I was thinking about it and how come this franchise has:
- killed the only character of colour in the main cast (leta) for literally no reason (newt could have definitely realised he wanted to join Theseus’s side another way),
- had the only East Asian-coded character (Nagini) face orientalist tropes without actually giving her an arc or an opportunity to fight them,
- had yusuf just be randomly some mysterious guy (this is defo a typical trope) while they could have developed Lally’s storyline,
- and written the main Jewish-coded character (Tina) basically out of the third movie…
like I know there were filming issues but that doesn’t change what the final product looked like, justice for the women of FB omg

You are both hilarious and insightful, so…I’ve created a second edition of my ship ask:
Classic: Neville/Luna
Niche: Snape/Narcissa
Tastefully deranged: Voldemort/one of his horcruxes
Deranged: Umbridge/Filch
Crack: Fudge/Margret Thatcher, who canonically tried to throw him from a window (quite an enemies to lovers opener…)
thank you for the ask anon! these are amazingly deranged...
neville longbottom/luna lovegood
i have the toxic trait of really disliking fanon!luna. my girl is not a dreamily misunderstood clairvoyant, dispensing pearls of folksy wisdom. she's a conspiracy theorist.
which is to say, show me a neville/luna where they're both being sweet and taking edibles and talking about, idk, how plants are our friends, and it's a no.
show me neville returning to his pre-war awkward passivity and therefore unsure about what to do in the face of luna coming home with "evidence" that seed oils destroy the magical core and the battle of hogwarts was a hoax, and i'll tune in.
narcissa malfoy/severus snape
i sincerely think this is implied by canon - how do you know where he lives, eh, narcissa? - and that it's probably one of the better relationships either of them ever have. after all, they are aligned on how children should be raised [not as death eaters], what relationship to have with your in-laws [bella and wormtail, you are not wanted here], and what to do with a toxic boss [lie to his face]. all things that matter.
and let's be honest, lucius malfoy has selfish-in-bed vibes, but severus "i will sacrifice everything for even a crumb of your regard" snape? oh, he fucks.
lord voldemort/his horcruxes
this one obviously has several potential manifestations...
voldemort/the non-living objects the horcruxes are made from:
if you can find a way to fuck a tiara, full respect to you.
voldemort/nagini:
nagini's a lesbian, so she ignores all advances and flirts with the malfoys' peahens instead. importantly, she has only ever been a snake and the fantastic beasts films don't exist.
voldemort/harry:
canon.
voldemort/the victims
i have a soft spot for the potential of tom riddle/myrtle warren, because i was also an annoying and dramatic teenage girl, and sometimes those girls should be allowed a little crush on the hottest boy in school at a treat.
tom riddle/tom riddle sr.? well, voldemort does have unbelievable daddy issues...
voldemort/hepzibah smith? only if he got a payrise for doing it.
voldemort/unknown locket and diadem murders? why not.
voldemort/lily potter? hot, but he was too busy simping for james [no he did not face you "like a man, straight backed and proud", he ran into the hall without a wand, flailed, and then died] to notice the potential.
voldemort/frank bryce? i'm not entirely sure that soul baby had the ability to fuck, but if there's anyone who knows enough magic to try...
tomcest:
tomcest should appeal to me - and frequently does - because if there's anyone who would consider the only suitable partner for himself to be - well - himself, it's lord voldemort.
but.
i am someone who is quite critical of the default sexual dynamics in a lot of voldemort-centric slash [especially tomarrymort], which i often find to replicate a lot of heteronormative ideas about queer sex. voldemort is generally written as exclusively topping, largely - it seems - because many authors and readers equate taking that position with being in control of/more powerful than the bottom.
i prefer a dark lord who'll try anything, because enjoying getting railed doesn't make you any less capable of being a terrorist. and, luckily, there are lots of fics which feel the same way, and i've had lots of great conversations with other voldemort enjoyers about it.
but, one thing i think is worth being aware of is that a significant percentage of bottom!voldemort fics are tomcest, which - in my opinion - kind of defeats the point of saying that bottoming doesn't automatically require a relinquishing of power or a choice of passivity - obviously voldemort would be prepared to be passive with himself.
what i'd like to see more of is a voldemort who doesn't think the way he likes to get fucked reveals passivity at all, whether he's with himself or not, but atm i'm finding tomcest isn't entirely bringing it to me.
argus filch/dolores umbridge
i reckon this would be quite mutually fulfilling, actually. they do caretaker/headmistress role-play. i.e. their jobs.
cornelius fudge/margaret thatcher
fudge is elected in 1990, which means he gets to meet thatcher while she's on her way out, seeing betrayal around every corner. hurt/comfort for dayysssss.

Ok but Albus telling Newt that maybe Aurelius could have been a part of his and Abe's life was so heartbreaking. You can see the pain and regret he feels and longing to get to know this kid he just found out was his nephew. You can see how much Abe wants his child to come home so he can finally take care of him. I know this isn't in the books, but we need a storyline where Abe and Albus take care of Aurelius and make him a part of their life. Also, where are the goats? Can we get some goats??
To be honest I don't see Credence surviving. On the one hand I wish he could. I actually like the character and would love to see him thriving for once in his family. I'd like to see Albus giving it a try at being there for someone who needs a lot of emotional support and love. I'd like to see Aberforth trying to create a strong bond with his son. But realistically, here is no reason for that at this point.
But in terms of the plot? Credence is not needed anymore in the sense that Albus and Gellert can now move against each other. The theme of obscurials is still foil for us to have an idea of Ariana's situation and to facilitate whatever they might introduce about her in flashbacks, so it has kinda served its purpose. Even if Credence healed, there is the question of why we never see him in HP and we can assume that Aberforth might have found more balance in his life if Credence was still alive by then. I don't see him choosing to leave the Dumbledores. The only person he could have retreated with was Nagini, and we know how she ends up. So even if there wasn't the issue of WB wanting Miller out at this point, Credence would only survive to die shortly after and that would just waste the very limited time these movies have.
I think we'll see at least a scene of Albus wanting to talk to Aberforth and finding him managing his grief in the quiet of feeding his goats. Moreover Credence's death would bring Aberforth's character from 'off to save the world, are we?' to 'where do I sign up to burn Grindelwald to the ground?'. Aberforth always ended up joining in when the world was in danger, but in this case he has a lot more going on. Any bitterness about what happened to Ariana and about Grindelwald using the cruciatus curse on him aside, Gellert abused his son, deprived them of precious time and manipulated Credence into trying to kill Albus. If Credence dies no off-screen, Aberforth will be like a dog with a bone; never able to let go of his anger. It would introduce at least one big exchange of words between him and Gellert, which has been a long time coming.
If they want to reintroduce Nagini, they also have the opportunity to show that during these years Newt was trying to help her but her grief over the one person she had come so close to and treasured sets her off and exaserberates her condition.
Obviously my line of thought is rooted in my wistfulness for another movie.
