It’s so funny how reading Harry Potter fanfic has given me so much more knowledge about the lore than just reading the books. I’m sure I’m not the only person who’s brought this up but it’s new information to me so I’m sharing it lol.

But one thing that’s crazy to me is that canonically, Hermione has a wand with a dragon heartstring core, which is a wand core that turns easily to the Dark Arts. Of course that doesn’t mean she’s necessarily a baddie but it does imply that she’s capable of it. Meanwhile, Draco canonically has a wand with a unicorn hair core, which doesn’t easily turn to the Dark Arts. Which I feel implies that he’s capable of being good. Or at the very least, he wouldn’t likely be a baddie without outside intervention which…..there’s plenty of that in his life. It makes sense that they could meet in the middle, in the grey.

Idk it’s just interesting to think about when reading Dramione. Like those little details imply that Hermione has capabilities to be darker and Malfoy has capabilities to be lighter. And like…….Miss R*wling wrote that herself it’s not fanon. Every time I see people hating on Dramione I can’t help but be like, it’s genuinely not that crazy. Most fanfics don’t even have to stretch too far from canon to make the romance work. Idk, I just feel very strongly about this pairing and I hate when people are rude about disliking it.

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban Ch. 2 by Vladislav Pantic

I’m back with more late night dramione fan fiction rants. So I finished Bending Light by scullymurphy and immediately went into Falling Dark (the sequel) and I’m sooooo emotional like holy crap.

The way Bending Light felt so beautiful and picturesque. Like I get emotional thinking about these child soldiers getting to enjoy a summer of being normal, silly teenagers in a beautiful setting. But then they also can’t even properly chillax because they know they gotta go back to being child soldiers soon like uggghhh. It just hits so well.

And now Falling Dark!!!! The way scullymurphy slapped me in the face with this. I swear I wanna dive into this screen and physically fight Draco for being such a doo doo head like if you don’t stop playing with my girly!!! And just ugh the entanglements are so entangled like omg I keep having to pause to screech like it’s that serious to me. But also I’m obsessed, like, the drama is peak. I know it’s tagged as a happy ending but I just have no clue what could possibly happen to make all of this feel happy at the end like. And I’m not even halfway into it, that’s what’s getting me, like what more do I have to go through??? I’m stressed!!!! (But in a good way). Also I’m so obsessed with Lavender in this series like when she said “I think I need to breathe into a paper bag” I FELT that

Into eternity
