“The whole point of keeping the school open at this time is for you to receive your education. The exams will therefore take place as usual, and I trust you are all revising hard.”
— Happy birthday to Minerva McGonagall
Hellooo just wondering if you could write something about James babysitting Dora. I can only imagine that being the cutest thing ever 😍
After seemingly chasing her around the entirety of Grimmauld Place, James had finally focused his goddaughter’s attention on the dress-up box, hoping to at least keep her confined to her room. He’d thought he was physically fit, given his job, but apparently small children fuelled themselves on the sheer exhaustion of whoever was looking after them.
‘What about this, Dora?’ he asked her, pulling out a sequined little dress. ‘Want to be a fairy?’
She scowled. ‘No.’

This woman. This fucking woman. She was the head of one of the most important institutes. At the age of 18. In 1878. She dealt with the sexism that came from the men in the Clave and sometimes even from women who should have backed her up. She dealt with the shitty way Will treated her, but she never gave up her hope for him because she knew deep inside that he was a good person. She dealt with the knowledge that Jem, a boy she loved like a brother, was going to die soon and there was nothing she could do about it. She dealt with Jessamine’s crap and she still always tried her best to make her happy. She dealt with Tessa who did not even know what she was, Charlotte always tried to help her and keep her safe despite the fact that she was only a stranger. She dealt with thought that her husband, the man she loved, did not love her back for five years. All while running the London Institute and being only 23 years old, but she never let that discourage her. Seriously, there is no way in hell a normal 23 year old woman would be able to do this (no offense to the normal 23 year old women reading this).
She was never scared to be the head of the London Institute, despite the fact that that was the most likely place Mortmain would attack because Tessa was there. She didn’t even for a second think of kicking Tessa out in order to secure her safety. She was such a beautiful human being. She sealed with Jessamine’s betrayal like a queen, and then she FORGIVED her, and let her come back into the Institute because she knew Jessamine had nowhere to go. Her love for her husband never wavered when he lost his ability to walk, she never let the comments people made about him change her feelings for him. She is super wise??? She is so wise that Gabriel ( who used to hate her) wanted her approval and wanted her to be proud of him! She fought in an extremely dangerous battle while being pregnant???SHE WAS THE FIRST WOMAN CONSUL!!! And her accomplishments don’t stop there. She raised another wonderful human being! Why does nobody give Charlotte any credit for Matthew Fairchild??? He wouldn’t be the person he is if he had had another mother!!! And still there are people who have the audacity to disrespect her! They make rumors about her not being faithful to her husband!
Just how ignored Charlotte is is insane. Many people don’t realize that strong women like her in YA are super rare. Most strong women in YA are viewed as extremely beautiful, are always surrounded by a ton of men who love them, they are usually heartless, and would kill you for looking at them the wrong way. Guess what? Charlotte is not like that at all that. She is such a brave, caring, and strong human being who deserves more respect and love, she is the type of person I can only dream of being one day, she is a role model. She is one of the most badass women in TSC, so please stop sleeping on her.
This feels like a giant pidgeon crapping on my heart....
'I lost someone special to me, too. Her name was Costia. She was captured by the ice nation, whose queen believed she knew my secrets. Because she was mine… they tortured her, killed her, cut off her head. I thought I'd never get over the pain, but I did. By recognizing it for what it is… weakness.' 'What is? Love?'

Day 15 of @hinnymicrofic, posted a few days late. Busy weekends, and all that.
“Aha!” Ginny exclaims suddenly, triumphant. “I found it!”
Harry attempts to mask his amusement. She’s clasping his palm in one of her small, freckled hands, while diligently referencing Unfogging the Future, trailing her finger along the text with the other.
“This is your head line,” Ginny says, pointing to the faint line running horizontally somewhere in the vicinity of the center of his palm. “Awfully short, don’t you think?”
Harry squints at the line, and then back up to the twisted line of her smirk. “What’s short supposed to mean, then?”
Ginny looks down at the textbook and reads, “Those with below-average head lines tend to be incredibly thick. They befriend lanky red-headed gits, play Seeker, and they often don’t notice when girls give them hundreds of opportunities to–”
“That’s what the book says, does it?”
“It’s all here, Harry. Who am I to question fate?”
“You shit.”
Ginny snickers and releases his hand, which Harry regrets immediately. “Divination is such rubbish, I can’t believe an examiner is going to actually evaluate me on this.”
“Ron and I just made things up,” Harry remembers. “Seemed to go fine.”
“Didn’t you get a P?”
“Yep,” Harry says unconcernedly, lifting her hand and examining her palm as though reading it. “But then we got to drop it altogether.”
“Hm,” Ginny considers. “Maybe your head line is longer than I thought.”
Her hands are small, almost delicate looking. He glances at the textbook, sees a diagram with lines like “heart” and “marriage” and “life” that can allegedly be foretold. He has a brief, cynical moment where he wonders how short those lines are on his palm, and then feels grateful Ginny hadn’t mentioned it. Hadn’t mentioned any of the sticky ones, really.
“If you squint really hard you can see my money line,” Ginny jokes. “It says I have nine sickles.”
He looks up at her, strangely overcome with the sensation of being understood; that she’d know without needing to explain how difficult it would be for him to talk about an uncertain future, that she’d gravitate toward taking the piss and joking about sickles to spare him.
“I’ve got a prediction,” Harry says.
“Oh yes?”
I’ll never get over you. “You’re going to get a D in Divination.”
She laughs in that unrestrained way she has, and Harry wonders if what he’s found with her has etched itself into his palm, something permanent, irrefutable. He can’t bear to check.
the wolves will come again
