Talented Mr Ripley taco AU. Discuss.
Ok but i don't want that fate for Draco 😭😭😭😭
Talented Mr Ripley spoilers to follow (and I only refer to book ripley bc the 1999 film doesn't exist, as far as im concerned)
I could see it as maybe a Tombraxas AU where Tom sweeps in, makes Abraxas's life exciting and interesting, then when they get past the honeymoon phase, murders him and steals all his shit including his name. But I ALSO don't like killing Brax bc that indirectly wipes out Draco. Unless Lucius is born already. I don't think Riddle would be as keen on stealing identities as Ripley is, though. Ripley's deeply ashamed of who he is, while Riddle just wants to discard the constraints of the identity he'd been born into (as is my reading).
I actually see Tom Ripley as a character who's an exact mix between Tom Riddle and Draco. He has Draco's drama, skill at impressions, snobbiness, social climbing tendencies and pathological need to be liked; while also being a penniless orphan, stone-cold murderer and ruthless opportunist like Tom (Riddle). Ie. a very dangerous person. Also, his name is Tom (and he hates it and wants a different name and identity).

I did it.
Harry knew that Voldemort is better wizard. But no one told Voldemort that Harry is better swordmaster.

possessive
like, VERY possessive
gets frequently jealous when you talk to boys (because"no one gets to enjoy what's mine")
not really into PDA, reserved in public (except hand holding and the occasional show-off that you're his by kissing you in front of everyone every now and then)
can't get his hands off of you in private
motivates you to study ("my girlfriend must also have the best grades in the school")
is quick to anger but calms down at your soothing caresses
loves it when you hug him but would never admit it out loud
knows about all of your little bodily imperfections and loves them
remembers every detail about you (yes, even the backstory behind the scar you got as a kid when you fell off the slide)
rough in bed, but can be gentle if you ask him nicely
appreciates every thing you do for him, no matter how big or little
would wage the next Trojan War for you if you're not in his line of sight
puts poison in your enemy's pumpkin juice in the Great Hall during breakfast ("your enemy is my enemy too")
always finds time for you, no matter how busy he gets with his ambitions to conquer the Wizarding World

Harry: A world without Lord Voldemort is quite dull
Voldemort: Sounds like you have experience
Harry: Yeah, in my third life I sped-ran the whole thing and took you out before my thirteenth birthday. You should have seen Dumbledore’s face, absolutely priceless

for the longest time i’ve wondered why and how people hate on this tom (from the half-blood prince) and i was thinking more on that a little today.
Tumblr media
because have you even WATCHED the scenes he’s in? his voice? perfect. his mannerisms? absolutely chilling. he nails the role of a teenage tom, he’s creepy and unnerving and fits his character to a t.
and then i was pondering the things that people might not like about him, and i came to the conclusion that perhaps he’s too unsettling.
then i got rid of that previous thought because people who enjoy tom’s character have to be okay with some frightening behavior.
the only reason i can see why people who are tom riddle “enthusiasts” don’t like this tom’s general eerie-ness is that they don’t actually like tom riddle for tom riddle and only see him as this suave and sexy bad boy who is obviously only manipulative in a hot way.
the moment tom riddle isn’t a character they can blatantly sexualize (which isn’t a problem in itself but it’s necessary to the point i’m attempting to make) because he’s suddenly become too “weird” and “scary” (aka his CANON characterization) people freak out and act like this tom riddle portrayal is horrible and bad because, what do you mean their completely made up view of him where he isn’t seductive and suave and attractively toxic and is instead a clinical psychopath is the real deal????
this whole mischaracterization of tom is also why people are so quick to love tom riddle but not voldemort, who is the exact same person. yes, tom riddle could be and certainly was suave and charming when the situation needed it, but the point is that it was a ruse. it wasn’t his true self. voldemort is, above all, devoid of empathy, and it baffles me that people are surprised when he acts like it.
all in all, i absolutely ADORE the tom above and i think the hate on him (which i’ve mostly seen coming from tiktok, no surprise there) is unnecessary and forced. he’s the perfect tom riddle.

Happy Valentine's. ❤️
They were dueling before this. Harry's glasses were an unfortunate casualty.
Also if you were wondering about the unbuckled pants, well... Tom's other hand has been busy. 🫢

The first thing you learn about him is that he’s not just beloved, he’s an obsession. People don’t like him in the traditional sense of the word. You don’t have to actually talk to Tom at all to consider him your friend, you just have to sort of know about him, be a class with him, sit in the Great Hall at the same time as him, pass him in the corridor or share a table in the library. That’s enough for everyone to smile at each other fondly when he raises his hand to answer yet another question, or when he gets awarded another ten points for a perfect jinx in Defense Against the Dark Arts. It’s enough to merit someone permission to make a passing joke about his latest class distinction to their friends, or comment on how well he’s done in the latest assignment from Dumbledore, or raise their eyebrows and smirk when another lovestruck hopeful approaches him to ask (very transparently) for ‘help with their homework’ or to ‘look over their essay,’ or even for him to tutor them in one or other of the many classes he excels in.
The second thing you learn about him is that he does very little to discourage people treating him this way, and yet nothing ever seems to really come from it. Tom is good at smiling, he does it all the time and he gets no shortage of practice. He’s good at the polite but humble smiles when the professors praise him in class, and the slightly dry smiles when the class titter at yet another of his achievements, and the soft smiles when one of his admirers gather their courage to actually approach him. These he’s particularly adept at, the line between steadfast refusal and gentle charm. No one rejected by Tom (which is everyone) seems to really resent him for it; he’s become so skilled at the art of dissuasion that people come away from the experience sorely heartbroken and even more in love with him as before.
The third thing you learn about Tom is that he’s a collector. He doesn’t really want to get an Outstanding grade in an assignment, he wants Outstanding in all his assignments. He wants to take every N.E.W.T. class, he wants to win 100 percent of the duels in Defence Against the Dark Arts, read the entirety of the recommended chapters for History of Magic, and earn spots on all the internships offered for after graduation. You strongly suspect that a single Outstanding result offers him absolutey no satisfaction by itself at all, and it becomes increasingly evident to you that it’s not so much any particular achievement itself that he craves, but the absoluteness of having achieved it all. You imagine that it would only take one single misstep in an otherwise perfect sweep for him to consider the whole thing a failure. You imagine it’s a very punishing way to live.
Maybe it’s this fascination with perfection and collection that makes him so determined to figure out why you don’t seem to like him very much at all, a single blot on his otherwise spotless record, the last domino for him to push over before he can step back and finally triumph over his conquered playing field. Maybe that’s why he can’t seem to decide if he enjoys the challenge or if he resents you for withholding that satisfaction from him, a battle you frequently catch glimpses of on his face before he hides it all away again with skilled practice. You wonder if he loses sleep over it, if he lies there in his bed in the Slytherin dorm twisted up in his own strange, frustrated obsession, why it doesn’t work, why he doesn’t work for you, what he’s missing, what he’s not seeing. Sometimes he seems a little tired on Tuesday mornings when you sit next to him in Transfiguration, and it makes you wonder about his night. He never seems tired any other day.
He talks to you when he can pass it off as anything other than him trying to talk to you; he asks your opinion on the book you’re assigned unprompted, he suggests that you edit each others’ essays before the deadline passes, he even invites you to study with him over the weekend some time when your classwork gets more demanding. In fact, Tom talks to you the same way everyone else in the school talks to him. You wonder how infuriating he finds it to see his own charming, dissuading smile mirrored back at him when you say no, you suspect rather a lot considering that’s the only time you ever see his jaw tighten like that, and his fingers go utterly still where he’s holding his quill, or his eyes go a little darker, flat and unrelenting before he reminds himself to smile back. It gives you satisfaction unlike anything he’ll ever get to savour.
Knowing that is half the fun of withholding it from him in the first place, after all.

Dedicated to all the time-travel fics in which brave Harry selflessly distracts Tom Riddle in girls bathroom so that he does not open the Chamber of Secrets. ---
Turn back the clock The hourglass has run us up When is enough, enough Lies, lies, lies
Unending mess Repeat the tale of who knows best So unimpressed with the Lies, lies, lies
One day for the ones who lead us One day for the monument One day, we could watch it all burn down
Losing sleep, we're caught and quartered Make the leap, lead to the slaughter Six feet deep, head underwater now Told there was time, but I fear that we've run out We were told there was time, but I fear that we've run out
Have your collapse Sat high atop on thrones of ash We're so far past the time for Lies, lies, lies
