when i was a kid diving into prisoner of azkaban for the first time, i very much longed to have tea with professor lupin, even if he did only have tea bags. ♥︎
Tag: queue got me helpless
as much as we all including (especially) me love “wild child teddy lupin” we have to realize that this is rita skeeter and although it is very likely that teddy is a wild child it’s just as likely that he’s a little remus lupin the second who victoire walks all over and who hasnt stopped blushing since that bloody article came out

Me and literallyprincecharming are the Harry and Hermione the world deserves
think about the people of Hogwarts who are so accustomed to seeing a rather angry, grumpy, depressed, and overall stressed Harry suddenly walking around the halls holding hands with Ginny, a huge smile on his face and eyes bright. and when they’re sitting in the common room together he looks relaxed and peaceful and teachers notice he’s just a bit happier during lessons and then they see them sitting at dinner together and smile, because Harry looks genuinely happy for the first time in years. just a happy Harry Potter canoodling with Ginny Weasley (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧
Sometimes, I think that the greatest thing Game of Thrones achieved was make me sympathize with a man who pushed a child off a tower for catching him fucking his own sister.
While many people think fanfiction is about inserting sex into texts (like Tolkien’s) where it doesn’t belong, Brancher sees it differently: “I was desperate to read about sex that included great friendship; I was repurposing Tolkien’s text in order to do that. It wasn’t that friendship needed to be sexualized, it was that erotica needed to be … friendship-ized.” Many fanfiction writers write about sex in conjunction with beloved texts and characters not because they think those texts are incomplete, but because they’re looking for stories where sex is profound and meaningful. This is part of what makes fan fiction different from pornography: unlike pornography, fanfic features characters we already care deeply about, and who tend to already have long-standing and complex relationships with each other. It’s a genre of sexual subjectification: the very opposite of objectification. It’s benefits with friendship.

Oh dang that is spot on!

like i have my problems with harry potter and jk rowling but it will never stop meaning something to me that rowling was a depressed 30-year single mother living on welfare when she thought of this story, that she was – in her own words– at rock bottom and she managed to put herself out there, to create this brilliant amazing series that has impacted so many people’s lives. there’s something to be said for hope.
i find it ironic that there are so many musicals about the poor and destitute, yet usually the only people who can afford to watch them are those who could never understand the sentiment
