After A Life Like Theirs, A Dance Like This Was Well-deserved.

He couldn't remember the last time he had smiled so broadly.

I wanted an excuse to draw the one scarf trope + a big, fluffy smile for Ominis just in time for cozy season, and also because he deserves all the fluff in the world🥺

A flustered, sleepy, messy-haired Ominis I doodled while working on the latest chapter of my fic ❤️ If enemies to friends to lovers is your thing, come give it a look!

Happy happy happy anniversary to HTMAV, the gorgeous Aurélie, and the clever author behind it all!!

🦋 Today marks one year since I published my first chapter of How to Make a Villain and what better way to celebrate than finally letting the bebes have THEIR FIRST OFFICIAL CANON SMOOCH in chapter twenty-two!!

I have many things to say about my solid whole-ass year of publishing but not enough spoons to spoon the words into coherence today, so for now here's what I think might possibly be the best paragraph I've ever written (I SAY THIS AS HUMBLY POSSIBLE BUT I REALLY PUT MY ENTIRE SOUL INTO THIS CHAPTER LOLOL)

Sebastian had always been at the mercy of some power greater than himself: the lure of the Dark Arts, the ceaseless march of Death down every avenue of his life, but never — never — had he been at the mercy of love. Stained though his heart was by Death's inky-black touch, there had always remained a tiny spark therein; a glimmer of hope that drove him forward, urging him toward something he didn't fully understand, some destination that existed not as a name or a coordinate on a map, but as a feeling. A feeling that had always remained vague and undefinable —until he found it living in her.

Writing Villain has been one of the best decisions I've ever made for so many reasons, but especially because it connected me to so many incredible people in this fandom who enrich my life every day. 🫵

The "Can I kiss you?/Please" Trope, but make it Ominis x MC ❤️✨

This was doodled for a scene in my fic. I live for this trope. I die for this trope. Therefore, I had to draw this trope, otherwise the Gods of Brainrot would never leave me alone.

Look at them PINING

Thank you for tagging me @rypnami and @accio-bagel! Here's a mildy spicy WIP of Ominis x My MC Allegra for an equally spicy fic I'm writing up 🫶

Tagging @gingerlegacy07, @morelikeravenbore, @galaxiasgreen, @polarisgreenley to share their WIPs too uwu

Give all these talented Ominis authors some love! 🥹🫶

hi galaxiasgreen i love your work ! a cruelty vivid and sweet is my favorite ominis fic ever and ive read it so many times its almost canon to me xD <3 so i was wondering if you had any recommendations of ominis x mc fics or ominis writers that you enjoy? thank you so much

Anonnnnn thank you so much!! That's a big honour, I'm so pleased you enjoy it 💚💚💚 And very happy to offer recommendations too!

Disclaimer, I mostly read on AO3 and not entirely sure if everyone or every fic is on tumblr, so I'll link to AO3 for now :)

If you haven't checked out @lyworth's fics you MUST. Green is the Colour is her most famous work and would highly recommend if you like sassy Ominis, a sassier MC (Allegra Chant marry me), insane plot and the romance! The ROMANCE!!! And all incredibly written too. Would also highly recommend A Song of Saints and Sinners, if you want an original story set post-Hogwarts, and my personal favourite of her work, 1 New Message.

If you want something closer resembling the game storyline with a touch of angst may I recommend Levaaah's Dark Hearts, Bright Wings, which features a Muggle-born Slytherin navigating the goblin rebellion while also developing big feels for Ominis? Sublime. Delightful. Sad but in a tasty way. This series is finished as well as sadly they don't write for HL anymore, but still an amazing group of stories.

I would be REMISS if I did not mention @sloanesallow's incredible Ominis/MC work I Know Places; post-Hogwarts mystery-solving, with a reserved Hufflepuff Muggle-born MC Sloaney and an Ominis that makes me dhdgdhskghd. Literally got me into reading for HL. Also one of the most fantastic writers in the fandom. Every sentence is publishing quality. Top shelf stuff.

Anything by spaceyaceface; they mostly write oneshots as well as other pairings, but in particular You Were the First is one of my faves. You will develop feels for Ominis in this one. Just the first line, "When Ominis Gaunt fell in love, he fell slowly" makes me swoon.

And finally by heartsof_theround, their twoshot The Illustrious Prodigy Painter. Ominis learns to paint. It is extremely wholesome and I think about this fic all the time. One of my all-time faves.

I'm also shouting out @ps-cactus's Shades of Silver Lining which I have yet to read (I'm an extremely slow reader rip) but having seen snippets of their work I think will be worth your time as well!

Hope you enjoy these Anon! Thank you for your support 💚

Okay, so what if the sassy blond Slytherin with the pretty blue eyes is kind of cute, actually?

Aged up MC and Ominis are part of my fic!
