it’s funny how we can read the same two people falling in love 200,000 different times and never get tired of it
“You don’t need another human being to make your life complete, but let’s be honest. Having you wounds kissed by someone who doesn’t see them as disasters in your soul but cracks to put their love into is the most calming thing in this world.”
— Emery Allen
crazy how this happened and then absolutely nothing followed. what a great ending to the sekai taikai!
Soooo late on this but I love how much robby and sam genuinely like demetri and enjoy being friends with him in s2??? like they're all hanging out outside of miyagi-do, they find his neuroticisms funny but they're not laughing at him? They're not just tolerating his company and rolling their eyes when he says something nerdy or complains you can tell they genuinely like being around him they really do just like him as he is and don't make him feel like he has to change I just ughhhhhh
"none of these words are in the bible" you're not even reading the secret part of the bible. with all my posts in it
Vladimir Nabokov, Letters to Véra

This is kind of a pairing to my Sirius, and please ignore the fact that there was meant to be a chair, but I can't draw chairs.
Like Sirius, Regulus wears the purples so typical of the wizarding world, but unlike Sirius, Regulus pairs the purple with the popular green. His tunic is green silk, edged with purple and embroidery made from gold thread. Not only is his wealth displayed in having actual gold for embroidery, but also in the pearls that edge the embroidery, giving an extra richness to his garment. Regulus' tunic may have less purple (an expensive dye), but the use of green (also an expensive dye) with gold and pearls sets his tunic as just that bit more costly and is evidence of him throwing around the weight of the family name.
Further evidence of that is found in his coat. This is inspired by Victorian coats. One of the interesting aspects of the Black family is that they have gas lighting, a surprisingly modern invention compared to the candles used elsewhere, hence working it into his outfit. The coat is dual toned green and purple and edged in silver embroidered with 'Toujours Pur', the Black family motto. The crest has also been painstakingly embroidered on the cape of the coat. This is very personally tailored and there can be no doubt about it.
Regulus has a somewhat Norman haircut. I just particularily vibe with him having this look. I think the Normans were considered new money, but their influence cannot be ignored and so the haircut stuck around with purebloods (in my head). It also contrasts nicely with Sirius' longer hair.
Here, Regulus is penning his resignation letter.
The Great Marauder’s prank wall headcanon Okay but imagine this… -The Marauders having a wall in the dorm covered with paper -It starts out when James writes a note to Sirius about the potions homework -Then it just becomes the default place to stick reminders and notes that are just never taken down again -Then Remus takes a risk and adds a photo of the four of them at the end of the first year -The photo stays up and is quickly joined by hundreds of others -When Sirius starts writing really bad poetry he sticks that up there too -The others like to write feedback to him -James kind of misses the point of ‘constructive’ criticism -“PRONGS HOW IS ‘THIS IS CRAP’ GOING TO HELP ME IMPROVE MY ARTISTIC PROSE” -When the war starts they stick up articles about disappearances they want to solve -A shrine is made in one corner to commemorate those lost -When they leave they each sign the wall with non-removable ink -They also write one thing they want to try and do before they die -When the war is over Mcgonagall finds the wall -On it is written the following -‘Before I die I want to make peace with my brother’ -‘Before I die I want to gain control’ ‘Before I die I want to have a whole bunch of kids with the best woman ever and then they’ll all form a super Potter quidditch team’ -And last of all in the smallest and neatest writing it says -‘Before I die I want to not be afraid’ -Mcgonagall takes everything down and puts it in a large box -She sends it to Harry anonymously -She adds a note saying this -'Before I die I want to be outlived’
There’s a small part in the beginning of the Legends novel Yoda: Dark Rendezvous where it‘s narrated how Padmé was looking out to the distance watching the spaceport landing nearest to the Jedi Temple waiting for someone (Anakin) to land and immediately got her macrobinoculars when a ship landed but disappointedly put them down when she realized that it wasn’t “him.”
(It’s confirmed that Padmé waits by her window, watching the Jedi Temple with macrobinoculars intently waiting for Anakin to come home 🥹 the way she loves this man.)
