Something that bears mentioning: I get why we need to shame straight girls who fetishize mlm ships but. To any straight girls who consistently relate to or resonate with mlm dynamics on a deep level or see themselves in queer male characters. if by any chance this post from a tiny tiny blog crosses your dash. Please take this moment to very privately consider the possibility that you might not be straight. Or a girl.

[Banner by @maraudererasmut​]

This entry is part of a fest posting from 6th July. Creator reveals will be posted on 1st August. Please read full tags on AO3 as some entries contain content which may be triggering. Title: Something Special, Something Sacred Creator: To Be Revealed Pairing: Harry Potter/Lucius Malfoy Rating: Explicit/NC-17 Length: 32K Content: Post-war, Not epilogue compliant, BDSM, Sex Club, Anal sex, Anal fingering, Spanking, Consent, Fluff and Smut, Good Lucius Malfoy, Top Lucius Malfoy, Bottom Harry Potter, Praise Kink, Come Eating, Marking, Public Humiliation, Sub drop, Referenced Alcohol Abuse, Rimming, Collars, Light Felching Summary: Lucius Malfoy’s life had fallen apart after the war. In an attempt to curb his desperate loneliness, he ventured into the Muggle world. There he found more than he could have ever dreamed. Harry Potter was a mess after the war. Isolated from everyone he had ever known and loved, he ventured into the Muggle world to lose himself. Instead, he found himself and so much more. Or how Lucius and Harry learned that sometimes being different is exactly what you need to be sane. A/N: Special thanks to my amazing beta, @moonlitmarauder​ Prompt: Self-Prompt Extract:

He brushed soft kisses over Harry’s forehead and over his black curls. “What do you want now, Harry?” he asked. 

Harry wanted to sleep, right here against Lucius, the gold of his skin firmly pressed to the silver of Lucius’. But he knew that’s not what he was being asked about. “I want you,” he said simply. “You have me,” the man replied. Harry could hear the smile on his face in his voice. “I want you to be my Daddy,” Harry whispered softly, a bit nervous that he was taking it too far.

Lucius’ breath hitched sharply and his arm squeezed Harry’s shoulders almost possessively. “I would like nothing more, darling boy,” he said with an intensity that delighted Harry. Harry grinned. Different but better, indeed. Read ‘Something Special, Something Sacred’ on AO3

Fortunately, the London Paranormal Research Team, headed by Harry Potter, is here to save the day. Word Count: 4,525 Creator’s Notes: Many thanks to robinellen for the smashing beta job! ( Madness in the Manor )

I don’t have a lot of followers but anything to spread the word.

i never talk about these things but i can’t remain silent.

i know tumblr doesn’t give a SHIT when things happen in countries outside the “most popular ones” (such as the usa & england). it’s true, don’t lie to me. y’all don’t give A FUCK. not every issue and problem in said countries gets the appropriate exposure but in general shit shows up on the news WORLD FREAKING  WIDE. you set up donations, you help out, your spread the word, you say “pray for x”……

southern europe is burning. 

my country is burning.

people are dying - at home, on the road, trying to run away, in their cars.

yesterday my country had 300 active fires.

people are losing EVERYTHING they own.

i have a friend that is on a train right now passing through places that have been burnt to the ground and she says the smoke is so intense it’s getting inside the train and she can barely breathe.

and yet, even though several people (myself included) have been trying to bring awareness to what has been happening in southern europe… what we get from most of you, those not part of the countries suffering, is silence. we don’t ask for money, we don’t ask for shit other than a reblog to spread awareness… something you can delete in 24/48hrs if you wish. 

i don’t know what to tell you. i’m angry. i’m frustrated. i’m disappointed. i feel like i’m screaming into the void. “a reblog does nothing” - you know that’s a damn lie, you know exposure always helps, you know people start paying attention when posts on social media become popular. my country in particular is a small one, we get ZERO exposure. y’all are only starting to figure out we even fucking exist bc of the shit we’ve been winning lately. 

but hell, if the EU doesn’t give a shit, why should some user on tumblr dot com?

again, i don’t know what to tell you so i’ll let the images speak for themselves: 

An image captured by a Nasa satellite shows a thick plume of smoke blowing southward from the Greek island of Chios over the island of Crete

Torneros de Jamuz, Spain

Duca, Croatia

A helicopter from Italy’s civil protection service drops water on a fire near the railway between Venice and Trieste

Residents take refuge on the beach as a wildfire burns on the mountain next to the village of Lithi, on the Greek island of Chios

Men gather cattle during a forest fire in Vieira de Leiria, Marinha Grande, Portugal.

Charred trees are seen on the hills above the Cloister of Thivaidas on Mount Athos, a World Heritage Site in Greece

Portugal

Tried my hand at a little bit of Nick and Charlie fluff!

Fic: Develop, Stop and Fix

Title: Develop, Stop and Fix Creator: Anonymous Prompt: #266 Career Theme: Draco - Curator | Harry - Photographer Rating: Explicit Warnings/Content Notes: Light Angst, Accidental Identity Porn, Mistaken Identity, Misunderstandings, POV Alternating Summary: In his five years in New York City, James Black has earned significant fame as a photographer. In fact, he’s attracted the attention of London curator D. Black. Harry Potter uses a fake name and runs away. In a way, so does Draco Malfoy. How do these stories connect?

I could not have done any of it without the lovely humans who cheered me on, fixed my commas and my overused words and helped me edit the hell out of this. Thank you! ( Develop, Stop and Fix )
