I have literally so many opinions on heartstopper and all of them are good. but what I want to talk about right now is how we went through nicks journey with discovering his bisexuality WITH HIM. we watched him take “am I gay” tests and research lgbt stuff. We saw his happiness when Tara and Darcy were able to kiss. We saw him talk to other lgbt people about what their experiences were. We saw him watch coming out videos on YouTube !!! We watched him come out to a few close friends at a time. We saw him rewatch pirates of the caribbean with a new perspective !!
We saw his journey!!! That was integral to the story!!! not just finding friendships and family and love, but finding yourself while in the midst of high school and all kinds of other stressors. This was so beautiful and I feel so thankful to have been able to witness this journey through media.
James: Do you think we’re soulmates in every universe?
Regulus: I definitely strangled you in one
James:
Regulus:
Regulus: To death. Not in the other way.
And one of the reasons why it's been so praised, particularly by the LGBTQ+ community, is because it reflects the community in such a positive way, through such a positive lens, which isn't done enough. [transcribed interview here]
A few days ago, I asked the Levihan community to send me their top 3 favourite LH fanfics of all time. This list is a compilation of the fics sent to me, and each of these fics mean a lot to someone out there 💕

Okay so I may have named a star DRARRY so now we can seriously say that it’s written in the stars.
Chapters: 11/? Fandom: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings, Graphic Depictions Of Violence, Major Character Death Relationships: Draco Malfoy/Harry Potter, Sirius Black/Remus Lupin, Hermione Granger/Ron Weasley, Luna Lovegood/Ginny Weasley Characters: Harry Potter, Draco Malfoy, Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, Luna Lovegood, Ginny Weasley, Pansy Parkinson, Blaise Zabini, Theodore Nott, Fred Weasley, George Weasley, Albus Dumbledore, Severus Snape, Lucius Malfoy, Narcissa Black Malfoy, Tom Riddle | Voldemort, Bellatrix Black Lestrange Additional Tags: Slow Burn, Time Travel, Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, Retelling, Werewolf Draco Malfoy, Werewolf Remus Lupin, Pack Family, Gryffindor Draco Malfoy, Trans Ron Weasley, Coming Out, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder - PTSD, Panic Attacks, Mental Health Issues, LGBTQ Character, Black Hermione Granger Summary:
Draco wakes in old familiar surroundings, but has no memory of how it happend. He wakes in his childhood room in his 11 year old body, but even as it seems like he traveled back in time his body is not unmarked of the war he went through. Old scars remain on his skin. How will he handle this new challenge? Will he fall into old habits and keep history repeating itself or does he step in and take destiny in his own hand.
I plan this to be very long and spanning over all years of the war. And very slow burn.
My recommendation no one asked for:
R: Explicit
It’s quite one thing for your best mate to casually tell you about all the sex his boyfriend wants to have. It’s altogether another to have him bring up the time you snogged him in a shitty Central London park.
