I fucking love Edmund Blair Leighton and his medieval themed paintings. Every. Single. One. Of. Them.
I hope he doesn't try anything foolish.
are they… you know… [trying to die for each other while adamantly refusing to acknowledge their feelings] soulmates?
Vladimir Nabokov, Letters to Véra
She gave the unmistakable impression of girlish innocence unconscious of its own beauty. Her hair was tied with a white ribbon and she wore a pearl necklace, and her lips slightly parted like the petals of an exotic flower before the rains come.
Yukio Mishima, Spring Snow (1969)
Another reason why I get so uncomfortable with people talking about wanting Carmen for her and her baby to die or for her to get sterilized is that there is a literally a racist history for latinas behind it all and having it happened to my family members in the past I’m like “guys come on….for once think before you speak ”
Do you think Sirius had a favorite cousin in canon? If so, who?
We are told it's Andromeda, I'd have liked proof or more mention of it, of why. Was it just because she married a muggleborn? I mean that is an implication she was more open minded than her family. That being said... I go with Bellatrix. I can see them with being similar gravitate to each other. I love picturing her being a lil devious one teaching Sirius all sorts of spells, showing him pranks she did. But rarely ever getting caught. Despite her leaning into pureblood views, I also see her have her own sort of rebellion, esp as a woman who doesn't settle back, she gets in the middle of things. I can see Sirius admiring that about her even if won't admit it. (Of course Andy rebelled too but I think it wasn't the same, different type of rebellion.) This is all hc, no one come at me. Hahahah, have to add disclaimers to everything. XD I build my hcs around canon but I honestly love Bellatrix so I favour hcs that have her in it. Sorry, Andy.
"How do you write such realistic dialogue-" I TALK TO MYSELF. I TALK TO MYSELF AND I PRETEND I AM THE ONE SAYING THE LINE. LIKE SANITY IS SLOWLY SLIPPING FROM BETWEEN MY FINGERS WITH EVERY MEASLY WORD THEY TYPE OUT. THAT IS HOW.

Honestly, this illustration brought out the worst in me.
