100% Marauders Did A Cover Of This Song At Some Point.

nobody warns you that as a writer your characters will start arguing in your head at 3 a.m

when ppl say James is oblivious to someone flirting but I know him for the cocky shit he is who thinks everyone is flirting with him.

James Potter & Sirius Black

day 15 - if you even need to think twice - blackinnon - @blackinnonfest

marlene was resting over his chest, completely naked except for the sheet with which sirius have covered them both.

he was mindlessly tracing figures with his fingers on her back, mesmerised by the sight of her: cheeks flushed, eyes shining, hair completely tousled as if she just landed on the pitch after flying around on her broom.

sirius knew marlene wasn’t into quidditch for the sport, but for the adrenaline, same as him.

“i think i’m falling in love with you” he whispered, only realizing he said it at loud once he felt marlene tense up on top of him.

he meant it, though.

“i love you” he repeated, louder this time.

marlene got to her knees, wrapping the sheet around her torso, covering herself.

sirius propped himself up on his forearms, looking at her.

“i… wasn’t expecting that” she finally admitted, mouth hang half open, genuine shock in her eyes.

sirius waited, his heart suddenly clenched behind his ribs.

several seconds passed before marlene dared speak again.

“i’m trying to think of the right thing to say here.”

he swallowed hard, trying to hide the fact that just then, marlene had hurt him.

he wouldn’t show it, though.

“if you have to think about it then i guess the answer is pretty obvious. i just wish i hadn’t wasted my time” he blurted out, finally siting himself properly, feet on the carpet on the opposite side of the bed.

“that’s not fair.”

there was a tinge of hurt in marlene’s voice, but that, sirius thought, wasn’t fair. not to him, not after what he just admitted.

“no fair?” he questioned, rising his voice slightly. “what’s fair about the fact that you’d rather believe those stupid rumors going around instead of me? you know who are the girls that say all that shit? the ones i’ve never given the time of day. they’re the ones who need to convince themselves that i’m some sort of ruthless casanova.”

“you say that as if you’re this sort open book, like i have to had you all figured it out by now” she replied, her voice even know.

“like you’re much better!.” he finally turned to watch her. “you’re the one who wanted to keep this under wraps, remember?!” he shouted, pointing at the general direction of the castle with his arm.

marlene was taken aback.

“you’d think the way i treated would clear things up for you. but maybe you weren’t paying attention, what with all the boys you’ve been talking to lately.” it was a low blow, but he didn’t care.

“fuck you, black!” marlene shouted, getting to her feet and rapidly putting on her clothes on.

“right back at you, mckinnon!” he fired back just as she had slammed the door of his room behind her.

seconds later, james came into the room looking bewildered.

“what was that?” he asked while taking in the scene he just entered in.

“nothing that matters” sirius answered, getting to his feet and passing james on his way to the bathroom.

this is so ronks coded. what if I throw up.

my head screams blackinnon, my knees on the other hand: remus lupin 🙃

i swear @astracoreiiisblog lives in my head because i just said: i need more sirius black art, and guess who is plaguing my dashboard with fanart????!!

Narcissa stands out as one of the most attractive women to me. I love her quiet strength so much. Sharp and refined features, I don't care if she's the blonde and icy blue eyes cliche, it's her aristocrat beauty. She has a calm, steady gaze, one that would never beg for attention but commands it all the same. Also I love how she holds herself, she is elegant without trying to be, her posture is straight, her movements smooth, even under pressure she doesn't fall apart. She chooses her actions with precision, especially in moments that matter most, and her decision to protect her son at all costs gives her a kind of strength that adds to her appeal. It shows she is more than looks. I might be just mindlessly saying, but Narcissa's entire beauty and actions lies in her restraint. She doesn't seek the spotlight but she leaves an impression. She's cold and composed, sometimes ignored, cast aside, but internally she's raw fire, her loyalty, her love towards what truly matters and her choices. She's one of the most compelling women in the story

now we're talking! i mean, if you want sporty she kinda gives surfer girls vibes, so she will be serving australian realness and going barefoot EVERYWHERE not just the beach (and at some point ends up wearing sirius' shoes)

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.
