comfy?
this chaotic stare reminds me of that one beethoven image
a bit dark, and straying from my usual content, but i want to remind everyone that you have much more impact than you think.
you affect people.
people notice you.
people miss you.
people WILL miss you.
not everyone will naturally show you how much you matter to them, but most people do care. and if you doubt that, just ask. please, ask. know that people love you and care about you. learn it. write it down over and over. internalise it.
i know you’ve heard this so many times it becomes hollow but i promise. it’s the people you don’t expect. it’s the girl who you always see at the crossing while you walk to school. it’s the cat you pet every time you see it. it’s the teacher who you have an ongoing pun battle with. it’s the person you’re not quite friends with, but you did a group project once and you talk every now and then. it’s the little kids who you helped in the schoolyard. it’s everybody whose life you’ve touched in some little way.
you affect the world a lot more than you think. people will miss you if you go.

how to be a REAL fan
like the thing
Alright, hear me out.
Cho Chang has always been one of the most controversial characters of the Harry Potter series because of how she was portrayed to be so stereotypically East Asian - to the point where her full name is literally composed of two Chinese last names (we’ve all heard of that discourse before).
What has always annoyed me the most, however, is that Cho Chang in the books has 100% more potential for charisma and personality than what the movies constrict her character to have.
First of all, Cho is a huge jock. Need I remind you that she was the only girl in the Ravenclaw Quidditch team up until her 5th year and has been an avid fan of the Tutshill Tornados since childhood? You can bet my boy Cedric developed a crush on her from getting his ass kicked on the Quidditch field.
Not only is Cho a jock, but she is also known to be one of the most popular girls at school which, to me, adds to the interpretation that she was more extroverted than introverted prior to Cedric’s death. In the books, she is often seen hanging out with groups of people and being almost intimidating from how cool she is.
Moreover, and probably most importantly, Cho was able to cast the Patronus Charm which required a huge amount of control over her emotions. Let’s not forget that during the time that she did, my girl was dealing with:
1) Trauma from her boyfriend being murdered by the freakin’ Dark Lord.
2) Losing her friends and seeing her grades going downhill as a consequence of said trauma and depression.
3) Being part of a secret organization preparing her to go to freakin’ war. An organization that could’ve ultimately cost her mother’s job at the Ministry, if I may add.
Therefore, the fact that she was able to cast a whole ass Patronus Charm despite being obviously very tormented by her feelings of grief, anxiety and sadness is, to me, super badass and remarkable.
So let us not carry the poor portrayal of Cho Chang from the movies, but rather celebrate the characterization that she deserves.
When you think about it, Cho and Ginny are very similar in how they are generally disliked from their portrayal in the movies. They really went from being badass Quidditch players in the books to silent love interests on screen.
Can we get as many voices calling out the unfair representation of Cho in the movies as we’ve gotten for Ginny?
So in conclusion,
(Edit: Also, her Patronus is a swan??? The birds known for their beauty but also for how dangerous they can be when they attack you!!)
They’ve been having a two-year on-and-off prank war with a lifelike plastic iguana. They hide it in random places for the other to find and get the shit scared out of them. They know it’s found when a loud shriek rings throughout the house, and they laugh until their face gets red and veins pop out on the sides of their heads.
They know each other’s Starbucks orders by heart: Connor gets a Venti Iced Caffe Americano with a dash of milk and three Sweet’N Low packets. Zoe gets a Short Caramel Macchiato with a Birthday Cake Pop.
They totally sneak out of the house at 3am to go to Wendy’s or Taco Bell. They take their food to the playground by their house and eat on the swings. Usually while they’re still in their pajamas.
Zoe took Connor’s phone once and took a bunch of unattractive selfies and put it back without him noticing. Connor did the same a few days later with Zoe’s phone.
Zoe’s photo ID in Connor’s phone is a picture of her cross eyed, with three chins and her tongue blepped out.
Connor’s photo ID in Zoe’s phone is a picture of him with his upper lip curled, his nose scrunched up, and his eyes squinted.
Most of their notifications on Facebook are from them tagging each other in stupid memes.
Connor is often the chosen victim of Zoe’s Hair Salon™. It was painful at first, but Zoe picked it up really fast and now Connor goes to her willingly for braiding and bitching sessions. He goes to her room pissed off, but leaves a lot calmer and a killer fishtail braid.
Zoe once straightened his hair out of boredom and curiosity. Connor said he’d hide her guitar if she ever mentioned what he looked like to anyone.
They have matching colored streaks in their hair. Zoe’s is out in the open, while Connor’s is underlayered. They play rock-paper-scissors to decide who gets to pick that month’s color.
Connor painted Zoe’s nails for her Homecoming, Prom, and Graduation.
They invented a game called where Nerf meet bocce ball. There’s no scoring or rules, it’s mainly just an excuse to shoot Nerf Guns at the windows.
Zoe steals Connor’s hoodies and flannels during the winter. She says it’s to make up for all the years he stole her nail polish. He doesn’t complain.
They watch a lot of Food Network even when they can’t cook at all. They love Good Eats, Cake Wars, and Chopped.
When they’re both home from college Connor takes Zoe out to breakfast and they talk about stuff that they can’t get across over text or the phone.
Connor trusts Zoe with things that he can’t tell their dad.
Zoe trusts Connor with things she can’t tell their mom.
