& fireworks

dean thomas. twenty one. gryffindor alum. wandmaker apprentice. i am learning how to be a grown-up who pays bills, cooks his own meals, and doesn’t cry at words like i think i just want to be friends. the truth is this: love is an organic thing. it rots and softens.

( MEME ; open. ) | 🌈 for a random encounter starter | ( @gwecsley​ ) GINNY.

Dean blinks once, twice. It’s easy to mistake people, of course, and it’s not like Weasley-red-hair is easy to come by. Nonetheless, he hesitates for a second, before taking long strides to catch up with her, and tap her on the shoulder gently. “Ginny Weasley, skulking around Knockturn Alley? The Daily Prophet would have a field day, y’know.”

( MEME ; open. ) | 📚 for me to grab the book nearest to me, flip to a random page, and use the first line of dialogue i see as a starter | ( @lovegvvd ) LUNA.

“This is my first time,” Dean says, and can anyone really blame him for sounding just the little bit wary? He’s the first to defend Luna, always --- she’s one of his best friends, at this point. But... Still. “If I’m terrible, it’s all on you.”

     “can you believe my mum still sends me letters? hand written letters? she’s.. the best.” he couldn’t even badmouth molly considering how incredible she is and it was obvious that ron loved her, even with the beaming smile on his face as he stared down at the writing. though he was also slightly hammered, which surely contributed to the happiness. “you’d think i didn’t see her every day with the way she writes. if you read this, i reckon you’d think i was gone for months.” ron’s eyes rolled then, hand slapping down against the bar. “but less of me rambling, i should buy you a drink, huh? one beer? for me?”

    you can’t live in the same dorm with someone for six years and not recognise their voice -- - dean’s nursing his own firewhisky, his first of the night & taking it slow, when he hears ron’s voice further down the bar. without much fuss, he shuffles himself down until he’s next to him, grinning. “i knew it was your voice i heard, chatting shit,” he says, good-naturedly.

There was a CRASH, a few breaks, and silence before most in the Leaky went back to minding their own business. Hannah looked to her right, only to see Jennifer  ( one of her first hires as manager ) has not only spilled an entire flight of butterbeer ( Hannah had thought to incorporate new kinds into the menu ), but spilled it on a wix in front of her. “Shite,” walking over to the scene, she smiled at them, taking out her wand to do a few quick repairing &cleaning charms. “I’m so sorry about that, we’ll get you a free drink, on us, yeah? Maybe a free drink everytime you come in for the rest of the month with the sight of this.” Placing a reassuring hand on Jen’s shoulder, she took the tray and the remnants of the rest of the mess to the back.

Going back to her post she sighed, talking to the person nearest to her, “fucking hell, you’d think it was a bloody DEMOLITION derby in this pub. I’m going to hope no one really saw that and got it on their phones for Youtube or worse, Instagram.”

The noise startled him; loud sounds, bangs and crashes, still triggered his fight-or-flight mode, even after these two long years later. It’s all instinct, really, the way he grabs his wand from his pocket, his eyes looking around in panic, the shaking of his hands. He can feel his heart thumping an erratic beat in his chest, before he realises it was just spilt Butterbeer. Feeling silly, self-conscious and almost embarrassed, he tucks his wand back into his pocket and picks up his own glass again. 

He ignores the trembling in his voice, pushing it away and aiming for a joke. He slides out his own phone and pretends to open the camera app. “ALREADY on it, Hannah,” he says, and if his smile doesn’t quite reach its usual brightness, well. Who’s going to notice? “You’re doing God’s work here.” He never shook the Muggle jargon.

was that really DEAN THOMAS? it’s been a long time since that HALFBLOOD ( presumed muggleborn ) wore the GRYFFINDOR colours around the halls of hogwarts. i suppose the whispers of muggle borns swearing they saw ALFIE ENOCH were about them, which does make more sense. so tell me, is it true he works as a WANDMAKER APPRENTICE? i suppose there’s no better way to make the most of their EASYGOING and INDECISIVE nature. funny how time flies, i remember our first day and hogwarts and now they’re TWENTY ONE years old.

we all know our fave (bi)con dean thomas tbh

there’s that whole background that u all kno but i’m gonna explain anyway oops

so dean’s father was a wizard but hid it from dean’s mother, who suspected anyway tbh, but anyways he was recruited by the death eaters and ran away when dean was like one years old to protect the family

he got caught and killed unfortunately rip elliot thomas

dean’s mother remarried when he was five & he’s older than his next half-sibling by six years and has a fairly good relationship with his step father, issa tight family

tho none of them are magical, dean has four little sisters ( felicity - 15 ; rebecca - 13 ; nora & rory - 9 ) and they’re all his faves & they all adore him back naturally

in terms of the war, dean was actually Very Clever and Careful about making sure his family knew absolutely fuckin nothing about the mess the wizarding world was going thru

it was to protect them mostly but also,,, they just ?? never got the magic thing & he gets that!!! they’re all muggles and magic has always been his thing, only his thing, and they all love him and think it’s fuckin wonderful and wild he’s a wizard, but they never got it

so he ran away for the final year and went camping for a year but we all know how that turned out yikes

in terms of after the battle,,, he remembered that ollivander mentioned to him once when they were staying at shell cottage that he had a good eye when they were talking about wandlore

and dean feels kind of lost after the battle, he doesn’t want to go back into fighting when he’s so tired but he wants to do something, and art is his saving grace, sure, but he’s finding it difficult right now to create something that doesn’t end up a mess of his feelings on the paper, and it’s too raw to show anyone like this

so he finds ollivander, who is frail and wavering and looking so close to death that it’s frightening, to get a new wand for himself and begins learning wandlore under him

he’s trying to rebuild tbh what would have been his seventh year was Hell from him running all the time and so many people he knows dying and it’s fhjdg a Mess 

he’s reconciled w his family mostly but they were Appropriately Fuming and like,, he gets that and they get that he had to do it but he feels guilty still and he missed out on over a year of all his sisters’ lives 

this got unnecessarily long i’m sorry wow dkjfgh
