I Like The Idea Of Andromeda Being The Literal Slytherin Princess Before Leaving Her Family

My name is Bella and my name means heavy

So with a heavy heart I'll guide this dagger

Into the heart of my enemy

My whole life, you were a teacher and friend to me

Please know my actions are not motivated only by envy

I too have a destiny

This death will be art

The people will speak of this day from near and afar

This event will be history

And I'll be great too

I don't want what you have

I wanna be you

Bellatrix Lestrange (née Black)

If your reason for not shipping Ron and Hermione is because of all their bickering... you have a child's grasp of their characters.

Ron has five brothers and a little sister. You have to be quick witted to keep up with the amount of friendly fire going on inside that house. The loudest gets heard. He's always ready for a fight.

Hermione secretly judges people by their ability to keep up with her intellectually. Condescension is a reflex. It pushes people away before they can actually match her (because god forbid she lose).

Unstoppable force meets immovable object. Ron can't stop once he gets started and Hermione is too stubborn to admit she's wrong. And, the thing is, they both clearly love it.

Hermione wouldn't want a "yes" man and Ron wouldn't want someone who can't handle teasing. He challenges her intellect, and she gets an intellectual challenge. It's a win win.

au marlene survives, sirius gets released from azkaban

sirius: i– i thought you were dead, marls *desperately clinging to her*

marlene: is that why you went full ballistic and manage to get yourself locked in azkaban? azkaban, sirius, of all places! *clasping sirius face between her hands*

sirius: you don’t understand, i thought– i thought– i–

marlene: that peter did it?

sirius: what? how? what the hell marls?!

marlene: it pays to know your secrets, sirius. now let’s put padfoot’s nose to good use and find that coward

i didn’t know i needed mgk 90s boy band vibes wtf.

i want to write a little story of the women of family black, like sort of portraits of them.

first chapter following walburga from her last years at hogwarts up until sirius’s birth.

second chapter following bellatrix since the moment she met baby sirius until his selection into gryffindor or maybe her decision to marry into the lestrange family.

third chapter following andromeda from sirius’s selection til she ran away with ted.

fourth one following narcissa from the moment andromeda left til she found out she was pregnant with draco.

that’s what i’m thinking so far, but i would love to read some fics centered around the black family or, at least, the black sisters, so if you have any recommendations pls let me know! 🙏🏻

sirius black was meant to inherit the fortunes of both his grandparents, one through alphard and one through orion.

this is what could turn him into potentially the most powerful wizard in the lense of society. we know the malfoys were the richest when we were introduced to them, but that was in a world where the black heir was in prison.

this is what sells to me the idea that neither walburga or orion wanted to play the family game and leave the task up to cygnuss, since alphard didn’t played along either.

walburga and orion marriage was a powerful move. together they ensured the next heir to be powerful whilst securing the family line. but also, there’s a chance they had regulus not as the spare, or at least not in the sense for him to become the heir in case something happens with sirius, but more as to spare him of any duties.

they could’ve put all the expectations and pressure onto sirius and simultaneously free up his youngest to be who ever he wanted to be, an option they didn’t have.

jokes on me for thinking: sure, and interview format story retelling the past of a band? EASY WRITING, IT'S JUST TAKING EACH CHARACTER MONOLOGUES AND ESSENTIALLY MAKE A COLLAGE WITH THEM.

like hell it is, this might be the longest chapter i've written and in my head, this was supposed to be one of the shorter ones. i get so stuck re-reading and re-writing cause someone would say something and then i decide to add to the one who "talked" before them and hour has passed and i barely managed to add a full page to the document.

i need all of you to see my vision here.

florence pugh playing yelena romanoff with her russian accent gives so much vibes of dark!marlene.

a blackinnon story told in reverse: from the heart achingly lost of her life to the very beginning when they started to fell in love.

bonus points if near her death they closer to breaking up o they were already apart.

situationships for grown ass adults 100% toxic behavior, get your shit together people.

situationships for teenagers kinda expected to be honest. most of the time we learn by making mistakes and hurting other people, whether we meant to or not.
