Devastating to have more evidence that done IS better than perfect

Eye of a Rosier

"This cannot be messed around with, Pandora, it is not a toy chéri” her mother says in her smooth as silk voice, gently stroking circles into her cheek with her thumb, the long nail at the end of it poking her in the ear every now and then. Pandora's legs are tucked into her chest, covered by her nightgown. Her hair keeps falling in front of her eyes but it isn’t like she can see what is really here right now. Pandora is rocking backwards and forwards, trying not to crumble.

Don’t Panic is a command easier said than done, Pandora can feel the calm touch of her mother, the soothing voice to go along with it. But no matter how much she talks she cannot stop seeing the way in which her mother will die.

OR ; There is a curse running through the Rosier family, having been dormant for decades Pandora finds herself afflicted with the ability to see the death of whoever touches her.

hi! I don't think these skittles habits mean nd or not normal, but they might qualify as picky eating

generally speaking when it comes to mental and physical health, if you're asked "do you struggle with this" and your answer is "no, Because I Have A System," then your answer is actually yes

are you picky about food?

no, everyone eats skittles by first putting them in rainbow order and then selecting them in pairs from least delicious to most delicious

generally speaking when it comes to mental and physical health, if you're asked "do you struggle with this" and your answer is "no, Because I Have A System," then your answer is actually yes

this whole mutual thing is overhyped on this site. want to send me an ask off anon? do it. want to tag me in a post? do it. follower, mutual, or just random person who stumbled across my blog: I crave interaction and literally do not mind.

there’s so much i wanna write but there’s also so much i wanna read but there’s also so much i wanna watch but there’s also so much i wanna do but there’s also—

this!

why are all these people I like so much so far away?!?

the tragedy of tumblr is you will inevitably meet people who you should be having a sleepover with. you should be rolling around on their floor and rummaging through their fridge and watching shitty movies with. you should be shopping with should be going out to a cafe with should be wandering through the aquarium with. people who you should be experiencing quotidian joys with... and you cannot! because they live one million miles away

hi!

I wrote a fic for @hpfemininomenonfest and it's been released!

Our Black Blood

The fic focuses on the Black sisters and answers why Bella attacked Frank and Alice Longbottom.

What if Bella attacked Frank and Alice, not because she wanted to bring Voldemort back, but because Narcissa finally felt safe enough to love Alice again?

“You will have always been a sister, even if you leave, even if you hate them, even if you don’t.”

🖤🖤🖤

Huge thanks to @middleagedenragedmama for doing a first fic with me - I can't believe we did it! (read her fic!)

and to @badhairred for supporting us both along the way 🖤 (and their fic too!)

Actually check out the whole collection because there are some amazing works there!

and thanks to all the mods for making it happen! @messrsrarchives @badhairred @radla @middleagedenragedmama @heartsoncover @lemonlans @starprongs

your unreliable narrator fucking bit me

the black sisters

🖤🖤🖤

if you would consider platonic web weave,

black sisters pretty please!

ofc ofc this is also once again me complaining about spotify changing the colors for the lyrics because this would've looked so much better with the lighter colors :/

sometimes a theme recurs in your work without your permission. and sometimes it reaches a threshold where you're like. well now i think this is saying something about me against my will. don't know what though

!!❤️!!

FIRST REVEALS START TOMORROW!

we have over 100 female/genderqueer centric harry potter fics, arts and edits coming your way for the fest!

Can you please reblog if your blog is a safe place for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, asexual, aromantic, pansexual, non binary, demisexual or any other kind of queer or questioning people? Because mine is.

writing is so fun

that march 1st deadline seemed so reasonable

that was then

WHAT WE REALLY NEED IS A...

FEMININOMENON !!!

HEY! HI! things are rough out here right now, and i think in times of unrest like this, when we're not quite sure what the next day will hold or where our place in the wider world is, community is more important than ever. and i think we're all in agreement when i say fandom can be such a lovely resting spot from all of it so, hey. hi. you have a place here!

this fest is dedicated to female and genderqueer stories, art and edits, aiming to represent those who are feeling unsteady right now, and give us all a bit of space to breathe, be seen, and simply Be.

THE BASICS:

Signups are open here from today (November 11th) until December 13th.

Fanfictions, edits, and fanart are all accepted as submissions

Two servers: 18+ and 16-17 will be placed in separate servers (nothing else is different! just keeping it as safe and comfy as possible <3)

Fics: told from pov of female/gq character(s)

Any era/pairings/au allowed (or no pairings! you pretty much have free reign!)

No minimum of maximum WC for fics: oneshots or first chapter of a multi-chapter fic.

You can do as many submission across as many of the three categories as you want.

EXEMPTIONS: non-con and family pairings are excluded from this fest.

DEADLINE: working deadline of March 1st for submissions - flexible! (taking into account holidays, Jan 20th and all the emotions surrounding that <3)

HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE !!!

older generations tend to disrespect people they perceive as inferior

younger generations tend to disrespect people they perceive as not having earned it

me, reading my own incomplete writing : *gasp* and then what happened?

I’m sorry I haven’t responded to your message if it helps I have though about responding 37484388338 times today

Dear Mr. Black by @languagelessonswolfstar ❄️🌟

This fic got me through Christmas, New Years, and January 20. It was the most beautiful, lovely, and cozy Christmas story. It felt like a warm blanket. The bind is fully inspired by Sirius's cookbook. This is my very first time making a unconventional-sized bind and it took too much brain power to figure it out because me dummy 😭 But I'm so happy with how it turned out. This might be one of my most favorite typesets I've done to date, so this is kind of a typeset appreciate post?

Portrait of the magnificent Chef Sirius Black was done by the most talented @blackthornwine 🥹🥹

The bind is now in its new home at @moonysbookshelves who adores this story as much as I do. Thank you for all the yaps dude 🫶🏻

When the world is basically on fire right now, you can find a perfect escape in Dear Mr. Black. It can be read for free on AO3. Enjoy the meal! 🍽️

I love having friends all over the world. I wouldn't change them for anything.

But hell what I would give up now to just be able to walk to their door and knock for a quick chat.

To have a late night walk because neither of us can sleep.

To go for a coffee and be on our phone the whole day because we have all the time in the world.

To stumble upon them on my way to work because they live in the same area.

To just wave at them across the street and continue walking because I know we will see each other soon.

To be able to hug them instead of video calls, texts and voice notes.

Just to have them close.

kind of weird how parts of your soul are left in various locations without any warning… like yes i’m always at the top of that hill, sitting at the bus stop, in the cool light of the Japanese restaurant, standing at the pier etc etc
