Your Katara is so beautiful, can you draw her more? Pleaseee

Katara!!! 🌊💙

"i stand by my cancelled wife" but it's about bitchy, mean, entitled, arrogant, bigoted, Canonical draco malfoy

(mostly due to a laundry list of headcanons that change his internal dialogue but not his external actions, like god intended, but also i think it's funny)

this song, this bitchass song, and this beautiful art and the Bonding Moment™ together???

are you trying to kill me????

The bonding moment in question

My mental health depends on them, which is NOT good.

w-we... we had a bonding... moment...

saw this meme and immediately thought of Them

Were you aware what when you promote Dron, it's as if you are, in fact, peddling crack?

I've immersed myself in all Draco x (Golden Trio + Ginny) ships at this point and NOTHING hits like Dron. I'm convinced no other Harry Potter ship could.

Thank you for putting me onto Dron. But also screw you because they make me useless. All it takes is someone mentioning Dron and I descend into at least a twenty-minute fantasy about these two dickheads.

me logging on to purposely spread dronsense on the internet:

damn this game just keeps getting more complex

OOB dungeons are super interesting! i used this tutorial to get here (shoutout this creator, he's my goat most of my glitches are from him):

i'm working on another area a little further down, i really wanna get there it looks pretty

also, DON'T TRY OOBING WITH SITTING GLITCH. i did! but it was such a headache, i don't recommend it at all

^ finally this genuine glitch happened to me, which i found kind of funny- i logged out normally and i came back to this

i learned about your dron wip 5 minutes ago and im already hyped it truely is rarepair hell out here and i cant wait to get fed

eeeeeee tysm💖💖 i'm ecstatic it isn't a barren wasteland out here lmao, i'm acc getting responses!!

an update on the fic status, it's ~15k rn and still at the baby stages, i'm gonna start posting after i finish up the current chapter tho!

i outdo myself, honestly:

powering thru a filler chapter rn, so here are some small funny bits released from fic-jail bc they made me laugh as i wrote

highkey yeah, there needs to be a Gimmick™

absolute bare minimum of 1 (unique, ideally) gimmick per fic is mandatory. multiple if you're being ambitious, state em in the summary and viola

unpopular opinion but fanfics where the plot is just 'these two shippable twinks fall in love in the same way as every other fic' just bore me

me the literal instant i have an original/mildly introspective and/or philosophical thought: now how do i translate this into the fic im writing rn; what fake scenario do i need to create

ok i need to get back to writing. one thing to know about me is that often i write these elaborate aus as a way of expressing a greater breadth of thoughts because im literally incapable of thinking of anything that isn't the hyperfixation so its really surreal to just do it normally because i like my story

social interaction is a game to ron and 9/10ths of the time he's winning, he's being a goddamn sleuth, he's having the absolute time of his life

social interaction is a game to draco and it stresses him tf out--if he makes one wrong move he keels over and dies

I feel like we don't talk enough about the fact that Lance was top of his class as a cargo pilot. like everyone is so quick to demean Lance's intelligence because he's surrounded by the dictionary definition of geniuses in their own fields, but his line "fighter pilot, thanks to you washing out" to Keith means he was TOP RANK NUMBER ONE as a cargo pilot.

Lance is consistently infantilized and bullied for being a jack of all trades. his focus is spread, and even so he excels at what he sets his mind to. He, with little to no real gun or hand-to-hand combat training, becomes the team's designated sharpshooter. he also unlocks an altean broadsword , the only paladin to unlock multiple classes of weapons.

But he is the brunt of so many jokes because he's an empathetic, selfless, charismatic guy and a good friend BEFORE he's a genius. And honestly, i do believe whole heartedly that he is a genius, his focus is just so spread that he isn't a prodigy like his team members.

I love you Lance McClain.

What’s something about Ron Weasley as a character that you think is underrated?

That Ron is really, really funny, and that his sense of humour isn't a sign of immaturity or gratuitous comic relief for the reader's sake, but an absolutely essential part of what both Harry and Hermione value in Ron as a character as an antidote to their own tendencies (moodiness and seriousness/anxiousness, respectively). Ron makes bad days bearable to get through for the people around him. I think people mistake Ron making jokes for a lack of emotional awareness, but I actually think it’s the opposite. By the series end Ron is literally the most emotionally well-adjusted of the central canon characters. That line about Peeves’ poem right at the end of DH when the war is won (“Really gives a feeling for the scope and tragedy of the thing, doesn't it?”) is a) brilliant and b) such a great manifesto for how Ron’s outlook on the world — not humour as emotional avoidance, but humour that sits within all the grief and pain and suffering, and makes it that bit more bearable. So yeah Ron Weasley’s love for chuckles is Important and Overlooked and I will keep saying it til I am blue in the face

so, i figured, to tide over all my adoring fans [blows dramatic kiss to empty theater with 3-4 stragglers] i'd post one of my lil oneshots to ao3!!!

prototype #1993.37 "more-mini recorder thingy" v.3 exp.trial.1

this babey is a Percy Weasley-centric fic, narrated by our shayla, preteen ron, focusing on the relationship (and backstory) between percy and the twins, with a heavy heavy helping of Sibling Angst™!!

since this went over so well last time, lemme add some of this fic's comedic hits below, no spoiler edition!

this one has been in the works for a couple years now! i wrote most of what it currently is over this past summer, and finally wrapped up the in-betweens these last couple days, but at last, here is the 11.5k oneshot i affectionately refer to as my bakukami manifesto:

hummingbird, get what you want!

it's also a sort of veiled introduction to the premise of the verse in which i plan to set my kaminari crackfic, but that one is barely even a concept in my brain, so don't think too hard about it yet :P though it's not quite everything i wanted it to be, it's darn close enough, and i've been keeping y'all waiting long enough. so please, enjoy :) next ao3 post on friday!

hear me out, ron is better fit for draco than hermione is #ronstaninhermionestanfield

Longbottoms boggart wasn't Snape.

I mean you'd think this would be obvious enough - but people who hate Snape bring it up as their sort of trump card. "He was so bad he was a 13yr olds biggest fear!" No. He wasn't. Boggarts don't quite work like that. Boggarts are not themselves your worst fear - they make you FEEL your worst fear. Hermione isn't actually scared of McGonagall. (I'm sure alot of first years are scared of her though I mean she is strict and stern and a little scary at first.) Did she have some irrational fear of suddenly failing all her classes? Yeah, maybe a little bit - but it is BECAUSE she is scared of not being good enough. From the first book we see her struggling to fit in with her peers. She is muggleborn, she learned she was a witch so suddenly that she poured herself into being the most perfect witch she could.

Professor McGonagall, a stern and strict witch she respects, telling her she isn't good enough despite all of her best efforts makes her FEEL her worst fear. It has nothing to do with Minerva personally - honestly it could probably be replaced with Dumbledore or someone... its just she has far more interaction with Minerva.

SO - Longbottom and Snape: How do I know that Snape isn't his absolute worst fear? Because he still attends Potions every fucking week!!! Do you think RON could attend Charms if it was run by a spider?!? He can pass Snape in the hall, he can sit in the same room as Snape, he can even be teased and bullied by Snape. His parents were tortured to insanity by Death Eaters. Severus Snape is NOT his worst fear, that's stupid. Snape just makes him FEEL his worst fear - like McGonagall makes Hermione feel hers. SO what is Neville worst fear? I think the clue comes with him quickly saying that he also wouldn't want the Boggart to turn into his grandma. Inadequacy. Neville has never been good enough. He has low self worth. The tiniest bits of praise overwhelm him. He never wins any house points and losing some devastates him. He got his magic late, his family kept trying to tease it out of him, thought he was maybe a squib. He has a proud legacy to uphold and he is terrified he cannot. He is the worst potions student Snape has ever had.

Snape makes Neville feel inadequate. His grandmother makes him feel inadequate. But mix them together... and suddenly these two very scary people that seem to have such control over his life... look a little ridiculous.

DO you think Lupin is LITERALLY scared of the moon...? Or does the moon make him feel powerless and dangerous and inhumane? DO you think Harry is LITERALLY scared of Dementors...? Or is he scared of how powerless he is against the horrible way they make him feel - the trauma they bring up from the deep recesses of his mind?

Snape was not so horrific, so awful, so scary, so mean - that he as a man became Nevile's worst fear. He, like his grandma, makes him feel inadequate.

so real 🥲🥲🥲
