Fabian: Today's Show Is Sponsored By Sword!

If fantasy high goblins also originated in the feywilds, then lived primarily in the mountains of chaos and then started coming to solace, given that Sklonda seems to be a second generation immigrant (when asked says she's from bastion city, likely born and raised there) and Pok (I believe) is a first generation immigrant (might be misrememberin), chances are there is very little left of fey related cultural knowledge by that point, or maybe it's just disconnected from its original source (for example giving out full, true names is a big no-no, but it's considered a cultural/manners thing, without the immediate fey connection). The magic, while diluted over generations, does carry on and with it certain beliefs and behaviours (being careful around promises and gifts)

What I'm saying is, Riz, having little to no reason to pay attention to other people's contracts, might not be aware that contracts are not in fact all magically binding. Him or his mother being involved in one just makes them so and that's all he knows until idk Gilear gets scammed again by someone breaking a contract or something like that idk

Sure would be a shame if this got spread around and he lost his job 💅🏽

Just like Slughorn, Albus Dumbledore collects people. Only, instead of focusing on those with influence, he looks to the outcasts.

The expelled half-giant. The young werewolf. The repentant Death Eater.

He protects them and gives them a second chance. All he asks in return is their loyalty.

And, if on occasion he requests that they undertake a certain task, invoking their debt of gratitude - well, that is no more than he is owed.

He once thought to add a certain disowned Black to his collection, but quickly realised his mistake.

Sirius is not an outcast, but a rebel. He knowingly chose his path, and chooses what price he is willing to pay for it. He refuses to be used.

So Albus Dumbledore abandons him.

At least it’s not a brick

JUST LETTING Y'ALL KNOW WHERE THIS BLOG STANDS.

i genuinely can't get over teen! dad bruce wayne so please consider the following:

18 year old bruce wayne deciding to foster 2 year old dick grayson after seeing the fateful circus incident.

(according to new jersey law people from the age of 18 and up can be foster parents with no further age restrictions)

he does most of his training carrying dick around and dick spends the entire time just monologuing about dora the explorer while bruce is like "that's nice"

(after a few months he gets totally into it he's like: "oh jeesh, i can believe swiper did that, how horrible of him, you did tell him no swiping right?")

alfred initially is like "ah master bruce, decided to sign up for teen mom season 4 have we?" but two weeks in he's dressing dick up in 'i love my butler grandpa' t-shirts and is already favouring him over bruce.

bruce at first just tells dick "i'm going to try and be a big brother to you, etc etc" but dick understands like 60% of what he just said and is calling him "dad" within 3 months.

he still goes to train with the league and has to justify to ra's al ghul why every 10 minutes he has to use the satellite phone to talk to a toddler about the plot developments of blue's clues.

him becoming batman is just increasingly harder because he has to spend an hour trying to convince dick that "no the guy in the weird suit is also me- i'm the guy in the weird suit"

by the time dick is like 3, bruce has found him hanging from a chandelier at least four times and he still doesn't know how dick managed to get up there.

bruce just hanging out with dick and being like "yeah this little dude is my best friend and what about it?"

when dick eventually gets older and is like "i wanna be a superhero and fight crime" bruce is like "you don't wanna be associated with those dweebs, go be a ballerina or something"

(clarks first reaction upon meeting dick and realising that oh wait isn't bruce like, 24? and this kid is like 8? is "that must've been quite a shock for your parents" and he immediately flings himself into the sun.)

No matter what a post on tumblr tries to tell you, your moral and ethical stances will never be determined by what you reblog and what you scroll past. Don’t let manipulation tactics force you into doing anything you don’t want to do.

I don't have the patience to dig through all my old posts to find this, but I thought I'd share it again
