ten lines, ten people

my baby (gc omega #1 <3) @sequinhaze tagged me in this and I went back and forth for a while because I don't actually haaave ten confirmed wips to share. I don't even have ten full ideas, because thinking about balancing that many ideas makes me want to vomit

but I do have these. whether [most of them] will ever leave my drafts is unknown, but what the hell - here u go

rules: share the first lines of ten of your most recent fanfics and tag ten people. if you have written less than ten, don’t be shy and share anyway.

"The fact that it was a Saturday night in July and the lookout was empty should’ve been clue number one that they were about to be murdered." -> "Grimmauld Pines" a cheesy 80s vampire AU based on The Lost Boys (1987)

"Most evenings Andromeda had to hide that confounding purple Game-kid—Game-boy thingy away in the kitchen cupboard behind not one but two locking charms just to ensure her grandson slept through the night." -> "Teddy Lupin and the Elder Tree" oop a title drop ig

"[Letter written to the author in April of 1963, used to compile the events of the 2nd and 50th divisions of the Royal British Army during the Battle of France in 1940.] Dear Harry, I’m sorry this letter has taken me so long to write." -> Unnamed Battle of Dunkirk AU

"Arriving backstage at a concert stadium the first thing you notice is the smell. It’s overpowering, like an auto shop on fire. or alternatively; “Jesus Christ, that’s a big cock.” -> [Name redacted], Cadence of Part-time Poets, Part 2

What AO3 is Named After

I’ve posted about this a few times, but it bears repeating because lots of people don’t even think about AO3′s name.

It’s a reference to A Room of One’s Own by Virginia Woolf, which is a feminist essay about how society stifles women’s artistic expression.

🤲

if there's anything at all that's not cadence? like your next project... wink wink

Should I...? Idk... I'm mostly waiting until I've finished Cadence and I can disappear for a little while to write it 👀 All I can tell you rn is:

It's 2009 - Hogwarts has its very first muggle Muggle Studies teacher, the seventh years have started an underground Blackberry BBM ring, there's word going around of students' wands randomly turning faulty in the middle of lessons, rumours of someone harbouring a kelpie in the girls' fourth floor toilet, DADA classes are a total write-off thanks to being taught by a nineteen year-old grad student named Chad, pocket-dragons have become all the rage, and Teddy Lupin has just started his first year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry 🤭

I can't stress enough how much I miss StumbleUpon

Doing my daily reading (scrolling through motswolo’s tumblr for any extra Cadence content I can get my hands)

idc what anyone says the marauders tiktok kate bush “babooshka” era was sublime and i’ll be chasing that high for the rest of my life

"when talking abt the whomping willow.....could u not have chosen smth a bit less dangerous for a school? like a well-locked door? or perhaps named it smth a bit more scary? like 'death tree?' just so even the stupidest children knew what it was all abt?"
