Arabic poetry is so beautifully yet painfully romantic. I mean, They asked “do you love her to death?” I said “speak of her over my grave and watch how she brings me back to life” and “Because my love for you is higher than words, I’ve decided to fall silent” and “It is not enough to say love in Arabic, you must say ‘be the thing that buries me’” could have Jane Austen crying and shaking.

A Little Help From The Dregs

(Note: This is just a short oneshot that I thought of when I was talking to my friend)

Kaz was more vulnerable around the Dregs than he realized. The only reason he didn’t realize is because none of the Dregs ever brought it up. Kaz Brekker had a reputation to uphold, and they were not going to deal with angry Kaz if word spread of his vulnerability. Besides, sometimes they had to remind themselves that Kaz was still just a kid, and sometimes he just needed a nudge in the right direction.

They all were aware of Kaz’s horrible sleeping habits. There had been many nights where one of the Dregs had gone to get a drink late into the night in the Slat’s sorry excuse for a kitchen and found him stumbling around, mumbling to himself as if he were drunk.

Most times they would avoid it, knowing that it would only make Dirtyhands angry if they pointed it out to him, but sometimes they couldn’t avoid it. Some days it would get to a point where they would find him completely spaced out, shaking so badly from the amount of caffeine coursing through him that he couldn’t seem to stand up straight.

They never touched him, never dared lay a hand on him. Normally they wouldn’t even address the situation. They would simply take the coffee away and guide him back to his office and tell him to get some rest. Normally when he was that out of it it surprisingly worked, and the next morning he would act as if nothing happened. That was if he even remembered the encounter.

Other times someone would walk into his office to find him pacing like a madman. The room would be torn to shreds, papers and books scattered over the floor, items in places they shouldn’t be. In those situations they would ask what he was working on and they would attempt to ease his racing mind about the case, hoping that it would calm him down.

It was only the ones that paid close attention to Kaz Brekker that noticed when he would lock himself in his room. They knew it was one of two things; He was sick (which Kaz Brekker hardly ever got sick), or he was having a panic attack. On those days they would force anyone away who tried to see him, claiming that he had fallen ill and did not want to be bothered.

Even Per Haskell had his moments where he had to play father figure for Kaz. It was mostly when Kaz was young and had first joined the Dregs, when Haskell was more interested in his gang and not just in it for the money. He knew that Kaz would work himself to death if he could, so there was a few occasions where he had to be the one to tell Kaz to go home. He knew that Kaz would obey if he ordered him to do so, so that’s just what he did.

It wasn’t until years after and he was well into his adult age that he thought back on it. Inej leading him to bed late one night when he had went a near week and a half with no sleep, Jesper talking him through his frustration when he couldn’t figure out a case, when he was having a horrible panic attack and caught Pim and Anika telling someone to fuck off from somewhere down the hall. They had all been there for him when he was never kind to them in return, and he couldn’t have been more thankful to have had them.

Imagine

you have a complete day to yourself.

It would be spent in a giant elegant library on a bench or couch in a secluded area where no one ventures.

Quiet classical music, ambient noice from the calm chaos of the atmosphere. A fire place near by so you can hear the crackling.

Maybe you spend it with one person who will not complain when you ignore their sentient presence and wrap myself around them in a way that you can run my fingers through their hair while you read a stack of books that completely keep my attention from start to finish.

There would be tea. Hot, steamy and perfectly made, chai milk tea, jasmine or green tea with mint. Or rose tea because it smells like hugs. Or maybe coffee or a mug of hot chocolate with a stick of peppermint poking out.

Of course the person with you, whose only purpose is to be quiet and cuddle you, would be the one getting you the mug because you couldn’t be bothered with getting up while you’re reading

idontreallyunderstandthisbutokay

Fuck this. I’m gonna just frequent a cafe and sit by the window with a classic, whose title wouldn’t appear on the cover page, and sip my coffee looking outside until I bewitch someone body and soul by my mysterious aura.

Let’s have awkward Hermione headcanons…

Hermione was socially awkward in the books (the films decided to make her into a all-round perfect person, but that’s not my point), so we should have more headcanons about her being awkward…

Hermione accidentally saying ‘love you too’ when Ron tells her to ‘have a lovely christmas’ at the end of term in first year, and both of them blushing red.

Hermione getting all the Weasley siblings’ names mixed up, and Fred and George trying not to burst out laughing when she keeps apologising for it.

Hermione accidentally calling Professor McGonagall ‘mum’ during a lesson, and McGonagall being slightly touched by it, but Hermione goes bright red and slams her head against the desk in frustration.

Hermione briefly thinking that Lavender and Parvati had crushes on Professor Trelawny in fourth year, and getting all flustured when they ask her what on earth she’s talking about.

Hermione being all awkward around Angelina Johnson in her first few years at Hogwarts because she admired her Quidditch ability, and her coolness (not to mention her ability to make her hair look awesome, something Hermione hadn’t accomplished yet).

Hermione being really conscious of her bushy hair in fourth year, and trying desperately to make it look less ‘enormous’. Hermione blushing scarlet and getting all flustered when Ron offhandedly says that he thinks her hair always looks great.

Hermione tripping over her feet and falling into Ron’s arms all the time during their fifth year, and both of them getting all embarrassed over it. Harry trying not to snicker when this happens, and giving Hermione a knowing look.

Hermione being all unsteady on her feet after her and Ron kiss for the first time, and she keeps accidentally touching his hand when they are picking up the basilisk fangs.

Hermione accidentally kissing Ron on the nose because she miscalculated her jump to his face. Ron not minding at all, because he loves her adorable awkwardness.

Awkward Hermione Granger, everyone.

Can you imagine how good of a husband Ron Weasley would be? How good of a father? I’m just imagining Ron and Hermione’s marriage and how powerful and amazing it would be.

I spent quarantine reading the books for the first time since age 10, and one of my favorite discoveries was how completely and staunchly loyal and protective Ron is, especially when it comes to Hermione. Even when they are mad at each other, he is unending in his efforts to protect her and often makes efforts to take burdens off of her shoulders (i.e. taking over the research work for Buckbeak’s appeal when she is overwhelmed by homework in POA). He is her fiercest and staunchest defender almost from day 1, putting his own safety and happiness on the line to keep her safe without hesitation (i.e. swearing that he’ll claim her as his cousin and teach her his family tree so that she is not put on the Muggleborn Registry; literally begging Bellatrix to torture him instead of her.)

And I’m imagining this translating to their post-war life and their marriage. Hermione coming home from a long day at the ministry and exhausted and Ron already having dinner made and all of the kids bathed. Ron making her lunch to take to the office on days she’s dreading and including little love notes; making her tea and making her comfortable and just being with her on nights when she is stuck doing paperwork. Being completely overprotective when she’s pregnant.

(This DEFINITELY includes the fact that Ron leaves his job as an Auror to run the joke shop with George and you CANNOT convince me that that had nothing to do with he and Hermione starting a family)

And then there’s Hermione, who keeps Ron grounded, who stops him from getting so protective that he gets himself in trouble. We see this multiple times throughout the series, where she has to hold him back from attacking Malfoy in her defense. And I see this translating perfectly over to their marriage as well.

Having to stop him from going too far/getting himself arrested when Rose is being bullied (but also finding the more discreet ways to help him give those kids hell.) Coming home after yet another long day at the office and finding that Ron’s had just as long a day, and that the kids are running around the house screaming, and he sees her and laments that he hasn’t made dinner yet and she just kisses him on the head and goes out to get a pizza (do Wizards do take out? Whatever they do now.)

In general, the two of them understand each other better than anyone else (like in Goblet of Fire when Hermione is able to explain to Harry exactly why Ron is angry.) They always turn to each other for comfort and protect each other undyingly, so of course this would translate into their marriage.

In my mind, Ron and Hermione’s marriage is one built on mutual love, respect, friendship and trust, because they had so many shortcomings before that they worked so long and hard to grow from. It’s sharing all of their responsibilities and burdens so that neither one of them is overwhelmed. Its promising to always be completely honest with one another, no matter what. It’s playful bickering that evolves into laughing and kissing, and actual arguments that evolve into holding each other close and whispering I’m sorry.

It’s nights spent cuddling on the couch, Hermione laying her head in Ron’s lap and reading and him just watching her and thinking about how lucky he feels. It’s waking up in the middle of the night and holding each other to help each other through the nightmares. It’s building a happy home, full of learning and joking and reading and Quidditch-playing, a place where happiness overflows and their children always know, more than anything, that they are loved, and that they have someone behind them.

Every piece of evidence in these books about Ron and Hermione’s friendship and eventual romance suggests that they would have nothing less than the epitome of a healthy marriage based on love and trust and J.K. Rowling can fight me on that any day.

Me: I’m strong and independent. I don’t need love to be happy!

Also me: If a tall, rich, and handsome man doesn’t walk across a field in the early morning mist to tell me that I have bewitched him body and soul soon I might have to do something drastic
