Auror, Asshole, Alice

prewett principles

@tweedlegideon

She hated this show ponying. Really, there was no need for anyone’s parents to parade them around but the Prewett family was insistent on these parties after people were sorted. She’d been to so many of them, she wasn’t even entirely sure which branch of the family it was even for; Aunt Marjorie’s middle girl or someone like that but not anyone she even knew the name of. Didn’t matter, she’d lost track of the purpose for the party other than for her mother to tell everyone Alice had said she’d wanted to be an auror and to brag about how promising that was. “A girl auror.” she’d say to a gaggle of grownups. “And your daughter wants to... What?” Alice started talking about The Who and quick as a bird her mother let her go.

Gideon walked through the door and she grinned. Someone she knew. She’d been busy being brought in front of strange aunts and now it was time to tease. She made her way over to him and plopped down on the couch. “Gideon! It’s been so long since I’ve seen you last! You’ve grown!”

the unbearable weight of staying (the end of the relationship)

❛ i don’t know when love became elusive. what i know, is that no one i know has it. ❜

❛ i think of lovers as trees, growing to and from one another, searching for the same light. ❜

❛ this is all i know how to do: carry loss around until i begin to resemble every bad memory, every terrible fear, every nightmare anyone has ever had. ❜

❛ did you ever love me? ❜

❛ of course, of course. ❜

❛ are you made of steel?  are you made of iron? ❜

❛ i need someone who knows how to stay. ❜

❛ you look everything like your mother. ❜

❛ you taste like years of being alone. ❜

questions for the woman i was last night (the honest conversation)

❛ how far have you walked for men who’ve never held your feet in their laps? ❜

❛ how often have you bartered with bone, only to sell yourself short? ❜

❛ why do you find the unavailable so alluring? ❜

❛ where did it begin? what went wrong? ❜

❛ who made you feel so worthless? ❜

❛ if they wanted you, wouldn’t they have chosen you? ❜

❛ all this time, you were begging for love silently, thinking they couldn’t hear you, but they smelt it on you. you must have known they could taste the desperate on your skin. ❜

❛ and what about the others? that would do everything for you? ❜

❛ why did you make them love you until you could not stand it? ❜

❛ how are you both these women, both flighty and needful? ❜

❛ where did you learn this, to want what does not want you? ❜

i think i know what we did wrong (the realization)

❛ we loved like two people who did not know god. ❜

❛ what a shame. ❜

for women who are difficult to love (the affirmation)

❛ i could never leave you, forget you, want anything but you. ❜

❛ you dizzy me; you are unbearable. ❜

❛ every woman before or after you is doused in your name. ❜

❛ you fill my mouth. my teeth ache with the memory of taste. ❜

❛ my body is just a long shadow seeking yours. ❜

❛ you are always too intense, frightening in the way that you want me. ❜

❛ no man can live up to the one who lives in your head. ❜

❛ so what did you want to do, love? split his head open? ❜

❛ you can’t make homes out of human beings. someone should have already told you that. ❜

❛ if he wants to leave, then let him leave. ❜

❛ you are terrifying and strange and beautiful. something not everyone knows how to love. ❜

(the prayer)

❛ (dear god), if it will keep my heart soft, break my heart every day. ❜

family values

@tweedlefabian

It wasn’t that she was afraid to explain her wedding to her cousin - at least not this cousin. There were other cousins who wouldn’t understand, who wouldn’t try to understand. She at least thought Fabian would try and learn about it. Still, it was so difficult to explain it to him. “Hey Fabian.” 

Her arms were wrapped around herself, her body language tight and tense. “Look, so I wanted to tell you before I told a lot of others... I’m marrying Frank. Longbottom. It’s gonna be a muggle wedding. I went to one a few months ago and I really... It was the most interesting thing.” 

It was no secret that Alice was interested in muggle culture. She liked hearing about the bands and the shows and the traditions. “I’m... not inviting everyone.” Alice, normally so steadfast and sure of herself, seemed to be unsteady. “I mean it. I can’t have anyone ruin the night just because we’re related. Besides, I’m inviting a couple muggleborns and want to make sure no one starts anything... How mad do you think my parents will be?”

“ What are you doing here? “

She quirked her lips at the boy and cocked her head. “What do you mean what am I doing? What’re you doing? Might you get into trouble here?” Alice wasn’t worried about her own trouble, not when no one bothered her the way they bothered Sirius. Besides, it wasn’t like she hadn’t snuck into the restricted section before in bell bottoms before the rest of school was awake.

“They have records in here. Lily’s seen ‘em. She’s been feeling real homesick since she got into another big fight with her sister. Figured I’d get her one and she can show me how it works. She told me she even brought her record player.” Alice grinned, then remembered who she was speaking to. “If you tell Potter I’ll string you up. He’d go and buy the girl ten dozen records, just for the hell of it.”
