soulmark fic in which harry's "i must not tell lies" blood quill scar shows up on voldemort's hand as his only soulmark and voldemort is enraged that someone did this to his as-yet-unfound soulmate, but is simultaneously convinced his soulmate is, fittingly, a slytherin, bc clearly they tell a lot of lies. a match made in heaven
little does he know that it's an upstart little gryffindor who's being punished for telling the truth
about him
added background:
so in this universe soulmates tend to share any strong magical injuries or scars sustained by each other. however since voldemort is a dumbass who split his soul multiple times, each of his horcruxes gets to experience some of the marks left on harry, but not all. they each get a share of the soulmark experience but not the complete picture. like even for the tom!horcruxes trapped within objects, their soulmarks show up on their spiritual bodies (since soulmarks are soul magic) so they can still feel 'em, all right
so what you end up with is every fucking horcrux thinking harry is their mate and getting SUPER fucking jealous of the others, like wdym i have his soulmark okay
...oh so do you? ...shit.
Where's the fic? Please 🥺
workin' on it hahaha!
but what i find really funny is that the only way for voldemort to solve the mystery of who his soulmate is, given that both he and his hocruxes only have like 1 or 2 soulmarks each as clues, would be to put them all together to figure out who their soulmate could be
but since voldemort can't (or won't) feel remorse, the likelihood of him being able to reabsorb all the horcruxes and put all the clues together is like... infinitesimal
ah the irony of the most "intelligent" man on earth being unable to solve the question literally every other person alive can solve with relative ease: "who is my soulmate?"
at some point the horcruxes are gonna have to form a union or something to get voldemort to realise wtf is happening so that he doesn't unknowingly kill his own soulmate like a total dipshit
all the horcruxes uniting despite their mutual jealousy because it dawns on them that with all the marks they collectively have on them added together, their boy gets hurt a lot and they have to save him
(from their own dark lord self who, again, is a total dipshit who abandoned them)
if voldemort ever does get harry, you bet each of the horcruxes are gonna want their turn
for the monthly challenge on the tomarrymort discord (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧
the theme was “winter holidays”
I remembered I promised to post sketches more often. Gonna test a new pipeline on this one. Hope the coloring doesn’t let me down

tom riddle whimpering and moaning and whining and
I’ve been seeing so much hate on bottom Tom Riddle recently. It’s fine I guess. They hated Jesus because he spoke the truth or whatever.
Jokes aside, I’ve been in fandom spaces (a wide range of them) for many many years, and I can’t say I’ve seen such a vitriolic hatred of a character being a bottom before! Most ships have a wide range of fics with different bottom/top/switch dynamics and no one cares. If you really care, filter the content or just scroll on by. I regularly get nasty hate messages over bottom Tom, and I’ve never gotten hate over anything else lol. It’s only bottom Tom that people hate! Not to mention how many rambles blogs with people who act as though they’re morally opposed to bottom Tom.
It’s just interesting, maybe it’s because bottom Tom has gotten a little more popular and now it’s on more people’s radar? Not sure, but it’s strange! Is it just me who’s seeing this? Maybe anons are just weird with me specifically lmao.
Can’t spell bottom without Tom! Anyways…
Imagine if Tom Riddle got hired for the Defense teaching job right after Hogwarts. Dumbledore and Tom have the craziest workplace beef ever. Dippet is still the Headmaster and he has no idea what’s going on. The two most powerful wizards of all time are having the world’s intensest staring contest in the teachers break room. Tom doesn’t become the Dark Lord because he’s too busy grading papers. Nagini and Fawkes become friends which pisses off both Tom and Albus, they have to set up play dates for their familiars and they are so bitter about it.
huge fan of ship dynamics where person a does not know how desired they are and person b is about to pop a blood vessel about it
hey so. don't do this. being a minor doesn't give you an excuse to be an entitled piece of shit. if you're old enough to use the internet and communicate with strangers online, you're old enough to know basic manner. fanfic writers write for themselves, they don't owe you anything. you’re privileged enough to read their works for free. either be respectful to them or shut the hell up.
to clarify, this didn’t happen to me. I found it on twitter and it made my blood boil
by the way, if you talk like this to a stranger in real life, you might get a black eye. I don’t condone violence, but sometimes if you fuck around, you’ll find out. it’s one thing to joke like this with your friend, someone you’re close with. but a stranger? know your boundaries.

Tom Riddle is not unemotional. He is fucking ruled by them.
Color me a skeptic when I come across depictions of Tom as this stoic, stone-cold ice prince of Slytherin.
That was what he tried to project himself as, but at his core, Tom Marvolo Riddle is like a ripe fruit, almost about to burst with pent-up emotions.
I fully endorse the headcanon that deep down, Tom takes after the Gaunts more than the Riddles.
He did a grand job aping their distinguished disposition and glacial aura (his aristocratic looks helped too), but scratch the surface, and he's a Gaunt, a slave to his passions.
Apathy is not his Achilles heel. Avarice and arrogance are.
He's not immune to emotions. On the contrary, he's at their mercy. He's not the type to hide his emotions for long. At the first opportunity, he will make sure the world knows about his feelings, whether it wants to or not. Have you seen him monologue his entire life story and unresolved daddy and mummy issues to his prophesied enemy?
There’s nothing measured, controlled, or austere in my Tom.
He is prone to excess. Just as his Gaunt forefathers thoughtlessly squandered their immense wealth, he too wasted his brilliance, his genius, and his remarkable talent and shredded his soul to pieces in the pursuit of immortality.
Far from being unsusceptible to desire, he wanted so much and got so greedy that he ultimately orchestrated his own destruction.
Harry: boobs
Ginny: *claps* bravo!
Tom Riddle Is Obsessed With Harry Potter tag in AO3 always slaps in time travel fics, for a reason. The new Slytherin transfer upending Tom’s world, consuming his thoughts, may be cliché af, but is a classic. Not just because he is intrigued and curious about the powerful Harry Evans/Peverell who decimates his Knights in DADA classes and knows more than he lets on, but…
Harry’s presence is unnerving for Tom. He not only sees through his carefully crafted, steely, stately, and intimidating facade but also knows it’s as flimsy as a sandcastle, as fragile as a house of cards. He feels naked. Exposed. Unravelled and unmade. And this tests his very sanity.
But I would say, Harry also strangely makes him feel seen. For me, Tom is a boy who had always wanted to be seen and heard. (His monologues are a desperate clarion call for attention, imho). At last there’s someone his age who knows him down to the bone, to whom there’s no need for pretension.
Harry’s arrival is simultaneously frightening and, at the same time, liberating for Tom.
Harry is the only person in the entire HP saga who has faith in Tom Riddle's humanity, even when he is faced with the monstrous Voldemort. Harry making Tom realise how, despite all his efforts to leave his humanity behind, how beautifully, tragically, and inevitably human he remains (be it causing him to feel vulnerable or igniting desire to love and be loved), is one of the greatest trump cards of this ship and what makes it so delicious.
the foil to tom's compulsive need to know everything? harry james potter, who does not know how to elaborate on anything
FROM CHAPTER 10 OF SOULSTICE
14-year-old Tom must have pulled all-nighters to create a grand new name for himself. "Masterpieces require sacrifices," he would reason. Imagine a teen edgelord Dark Lord in the making, red-eyed from lack of sleep, arranging his name in various anagrams, cross-checking to see if any of them sounded grand enough, sufficiently magnificent, and menacing...
Tom proposing to Harry: Like this ring I made for you? It's pure emerald, matching your eyes!
Harry: It's beautiful!
Tom (proudly): Well, I have put my heart and soul into making it...
Harry:
