the picture in her head is fuzzy, like someone weaved a fine, thick spiderweb in front of the image. it’s late enough that she can hear the earth moan and the house cry; it’s late enough that she feels awake, the way she never does during the daylight when she has potions to drink and hiding to do. 

aberforth is sleeping, as the doll clutched in her hands is so kind as to point out, but this is the only time her thoughts feel solid enough that she can speak them, and aberforth knows that; he always understands. but  the image in her head is fuzzy, and she doesn’t know what that means.

the floor creaks as she tip-toes across to aberforth’s bed. “ abe? ”  the bed dips under her small weight as she sits.  “ abe? my dolls say that mother is never coming back. ”  albus would surely scoff at her saying such things, but aberforth would understand. he always did. her thin shoulders shake.  “ w-what do they mean by that?”   /  @caediteos

lamentedhope‌:

kendra’s patronus was a turtle. 

percival’s was probably a bear. or a dog.

albus’s is, obviously, a phoenix.

aberforth’s is, as we know, a goat.

ariana’s would’ve been a butterfly or rabbit, probably.

To Native Americans, the butterfly is a symbol of change, joy and color. The exquisite butterfly was considered a miracle of transformation and resurrection.

In the Old World, the connotation was negative; the butterfly was thought to be the spirit of the dead.

ariana loves insects. she’d cry whenever someone tried to clean the spiderwebs in her room, and tries to pick up every insect that crosses her path. it’s unfortunately common to see some critter crawling in her hair or along her arms. in fact, one of the reasons why ariana hates having her hair cut or washed is because she likes having insects near her.

There’s a spider crawling along her bedpost. Nothing is new in this, but Ariana curls her arms around her knees as she rolls onto her side to get a better look. A healthy specimen, but so far from home !  She isn’t a part of any of the webs in the attic, that much Ariana can tell. Her dolls are sleeping ( like you should be. The oldest one wakens, sitting up and glaring, cloth arms crossing in a scolding. Ariana bites her lip, thick black smoke growing within her as the knowledge of her misdeed causes her to panic in thought of the forthcoming punishment. She rolls out of bed, has the spider crawl into her palm, before darting out of the attic. 

Bare feet are silent as she walks down the stairs, the ends of her hair brushing the floor. [ she must be silent --- aberforth is at the other farm, and albus is. . . albus is doing whatever it is that albus does during the day when she doesn’t need her potion or food. she must be quiet now; she’s the only thing the house can listen to now ] The spider must go outside, her web probably by the garden, or in the ivy on the house. . . . .oh )

At the end of the staircase, in the foyer of the house is a boy with golden hair --- so unlike her brothers’ ! More like hers than either of theirs are. He has been here before, his name is Gellert, but Ariana has never been alone with him. It ties her tongue; the house can hear. Wordlessly, eyes wide as the full moon, she opens her hands and shows him the spider.  @absintheabsence

‘ i’m the fairy tale everyone forgot about because the lesson wasn’t pure enough. ‘ @ ariana, havefunwiththat.

thrice, she blinks, owlish and solemn. slowly, her head tilts side to side as the words rotate from one side of her mind to the other. (  don’t trust him, the doll in her hand hisses while the other across the room orders: go with him! )  ‘ go where? ’  she asks past gellert’s shoulder. to professor bagshot’s house? that sounds like a right bore, even if she has all sorts of books to consume. ( don’t trust him, the doll in her hand says again, so loud ariana’s ears ring until she sees nothing but a flash of lily white ).

she drops the doll, wide eyes going back to gellert.

“ maybe you should try being better. more pure. that way people will remember you more. ”

it’s kinda funny to me that people seem to largely characterize percival dumble.dore as a. . . goofy? light-hearted? fun-loving? man, when the main bit we get of him in canon is that he goes to azkaban for brutally attacking the muggle boys that attacked his daughter.

james and lily’s marriage was an elopement. there was Zero (0) planning involved with their wedding. after the first time they escaped voldemort, in the burst of adrenaline they came along with it, they decided to get married, gathered up whoever they could along with sirius, and got married.

lily’s wedding dress was a charmed sundress she already had in her wardrobe. 

the reception lasted until dawn, and the wedding was one of the lighter, purer moments during these years.

( please picture  ---  lily and sirius dancing, because bride with the best man, and they’re grumbling as usual because they don’t exactly have the easiest relationship, but then sirius scoffs an ‘okay potter’ at lily, and that’s the exact moment when their relationship smooths out )

You will always fall in love, and it will always be like having your throat cut, just that fast.

You are going to break your promise. I understand.

You’re lonely too.

It will stop your breath, how cruel I can be.

I am a demanding creature. I am selfish and cruel and extremely unreasonable.

I am your servant.

I crawl at your feet; for before your love, your kisses, I am debased.

For you alone I will be weak.

I belong here, and you will not deny me.

I say these things, and the world listens.

I do not tolerate a world emptied of you. I have tried.

In the dark, I have pored over the loss of you like pale gold.

I will not let her speak because I love her, and when you love someone, you do not make them tell war stories.

I moved the earth and the water for you.

You will always run away with her.

You will always lose her.

You will always be a fool.

You will always be dead, in a city of ice, snow falling into your ear.

You have already done all of this and will do it again.

No one should be judged for loving more than they ought, only for loving not enough.

We look terrible to you, and severe, and you see our blood flying.

What we carry between us is hard-won, and we made it just as we wished it to be, just the color, just the shape.

There need never be any rules between us.

Let us be greedy together; let us hoard.

Do not leave me, swear that you will never leave me.

I am selfish. I am cruel. My mate cannot be less than I.

Sleep with fists closed and shoot straight.

I can’t abide a poor liar.

You look like a winter’s night. I could sleep inside the cold of you.

Oh, quit that. Blushing is for virgins and Christians.

Scold me; deny me. Tell me you want what you want and damn me forever. But don’t leave me.

Bad luck relies on absolutely perfect timing.

In his own country, Death can be kind.

What is the world but a boxing ring where fools and devils put up their fists?

Men die. It’s practically what they’re for.

I am no one; I am nothing.

Nothing in me was not made by you.

A revelation is always the end of something. It might even be cause for grief.

Just tell yourself a story that’ll satisfy you and pretend he told it.

Forever isn’t bright; it isn’t like that. Forever is cold and hard and final.

I savor bitterness - it is born of experience. It is the privilege of one who has truly lived.

If you want to kill yourself, do not use us as your knife.

What did I do wrong? Was I boring? Did I ignore you?

Don’t you dare speak to me like that.

I have worn nothing but blood and death for years.

I have fought all your battles for you, just as you asked me.

I have learned not to cry when I strangle a man.

I have learned to watch everything die.

I am not a little girl anymore, dazzled by your magic. It is my magic, now, too.

Are we not devils?

No one is now what they were before the war.

I have not seen you without your skin on.

Close up your head; your brain is getting loose.

We obsess. It’s in our nature.

I’ve a devil of a habit for being right.

In war you must always choose sides.

If you try to be a bridge laid down between them, they will tear you in half.

We are all dead. All equal. Broken and aimless and believing we are alive.

My old bones will follow yours soon enough.

It is better to be strong and cruel than to be fair.

I will see him with his skin off before I agree to fall in love.

After love, no one is what they were before.

I have survived, but I have not been spared.

In the space of one heartbeat to another I loved you and I was lost to you.

Frighten me, make me cry, only come back.

It’s not so bad, my darling. Being dead. It’s like being alive, only colder.

You’ll think it’s love, while he dines on your heart.

You will be so beautiful when you are old.

I cannot keep you and I cannot let you go.

You will live as you live in any world…with difficulty, and grief.

I look at you and it is like my throat being cut.

She said you’d come and I swore to eat your heart.

I still want to kiss you.

My heart is being cut in two. I cannot bear it.

What happens to anything beautiful?

I have to know, I have to or else you will just rule me until the end of everything because you know and I do not.
