I Want To Write This Someday

We’ve gone through some rough times, but we’re still here.

Here’s my piece for the Critical Role Holiday Gallery!

Happy Holidays to you all and take care. _______ Many thanks to the amazing Chase Noseworthy, who composed the song “Melancholy of a Sapphire”, you can hear more of his work on his youtube channel

I love these books with my heart, mind, and soul

important things to remember

three houses stood between harry potter and pansy parkinson

mr & mrs weasley fought the battle of hogwarts without knowing where ron was

harry was so caught up in battle prep he forgot about the horcrux thing

neville & his herbology buddies threw mandrakes @ death eaters 

then neville used venomous tentacula to ensnare them

sir cadogan being IN HIS ELEMENT and rushing from painting to painting shouting encouragement @ people

mrs norris hissed & batted at owls

firenze showed up to fight 

poor hermit bewildered alberforth dealt w/ literally hundreds of people passing in & out of his house & then came to fight when he realized what was happening

slughorn finally decided his loyalties

ron: “so what’s new with you?”

colin creevy snuck back in after the evacuation

ron went after the basilisk fangs & remembered parseltongue to get them

hermione’s quick thinking w/ that slide literally saved their lives

mrs augusta longbottom put on her hat before she came to see what the what was up @ hogwarts

even the Headless Hunt people showed up

all the portraits encouraged ppl

instead of grieving in the great hall, ginny went outside, probably to be alone, and found it in herself to comfort a scared, lost girl whimpering for her motherneville & wood gathering the dead

professor trelawney throwing crystal balls down @ people

percy cursed the minister of magic & cracked a joke

minerva in her tartan dressing gown w/ a flock of galloping desks trailing behind

peeves dropped snargaluff pods onto death eaters so they were covered in wriggling, fat green worms

a dying snape was still with it enough to give harry those memories

He is dead!

mcgonagall’s scream

He beat you!

neville charged voldemort and mouthed off to him & slayed tf out of that snake

hagrid had his bro carry him from the cave to hogwarts, got shoved through a window, got carried away by giant spiders, and sobbed & carried dead harry all the way back to hogwarts

the rest of the centaurs, everyone & their mom, the threstrals, and even buckbeak came to fight

kreacher leading all the house elves w/ carving knives & cleavers stabbing & hacking @ death eaters

Not my daughter, you bitch!

harry literally waited until the opportune moment to reveal himself & it was so dramatic. bless him, sirius would’ve been so proud.

harry tried to get voldy to try remorse and redeem himself

ppl throwing food out the window into grawp’s mouth

blessed luna saw that harry was exhausted & distracted ppl so he could get out of the great hall

peeves immediately made up a verse about moldy voldy

harry: i’ve had enough trouble for a lifetime. *immediately joins the aurors*

Turns out people really like me waffling about Narnia on Twitter.

So here’s a more hopeful spin on Susan Pevensie. (From the author’s pen to your eyeballs.)

This is the single best take on Dragon Age 2 I’ve ever read and why I will defend it with my life AND TWO OF THE WRITERS BASICALLY CONFIRMED IT??

(Also everyone go follow Margaret Owen on twitter. she writes books.)

twitter thread here

George R.R. Martin: dragons are huge ferocious beasts who answer to a master  

Tolkien: dragons are annoying, talking assholes

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story + wolfpupy 

The purpose of life is to get really into stories that drive you so crazy you sometimes feel the need to throw up from how much you love them

Iroh & his sons

Game of Thrones + Troubled birds Part 1 (Part 2)
