Just because you’ve seen my life, doesn’t mean you know. Those are simply snippets of who I am, the parts I’m willing to show.

ALFIE DURSLEY.

The curse that hit Alfie jolted through his body like acid. He didn’t writhe or yell, but his jaw clenched so tight it looked like he might be about to scream. The veins in his neck and down his arms were enough of a tell that he was in extreme pain. Enough to make the Death Eater facing him laugh loudly. Alfie would take it though. Alfie would take anything to avoid giving away the information he’d sworn to protect. “D o n ’ t, Samantha!” He yelled, unable to help himself. Another Death Eater slapped him and it really didn’t stop him. “You  c a n ’ t!” 

Another one. When she looked over at Alfie getting cursed repeatedly, she reminded herself to trudge on. When she saw Annette getting tortured, a girl she’d not known too well but had shown her kindness, she reminded herself to keep going. Even through Alfie’s yelling, she had to ignore it, she had to try to keep PRETENDING ( like she did so much of the time anyways ). “There’s a base at Notting Hill, near the Kensington Park gardens and another at Godric’s Hallow where Harry Potter lived as a baby. It looks like it’s nothing but there’s magic around it, I swear,” Samantha coughed, “stop hurting them, I’ll tell you more if you do.”

ALFIE DURSLEY.

“I’m never going to tell you anything.” The muggleborn boy looked up with weary green eyes as he physically stopped himself from saying more. Nothing was going to be gained by him getting angry, no matter how much his body ached from what had been done to him to get him to tell them what he knew. 

They were hurting e v e r y o n e around her, and while Samantha knew she had to wait before she made a scene, wait until it had seemed like it was enough ( though, with all the blood, it had been ENOUGH a long while back ). Until she couldn’t bear to see her fellow people being hurt and while that was true to an extent, this all just needed to end. For everyone. “I’ll tell you anything you want !!” Samantha cried, her voice full of desperation, her eyes pleading for them to stop hurting the people around her. Hungry eyes, ready to divulge anything the monsters wanted. “Please!! My dad’s Oliver Wood, he’s -- he’s part of the Order, and he’s told me a lot. Just stop hurting them.”

ANDROMEDA BURKE.

ANDROMEDA    @samanthaxwood​

❝ Seriously, I don’t care what happens. I don’t care if we kill someone. ❞

“Really?? Do you not care about other people’s lives that much??” Samantha had never really known what was going through Andromeda’s mind most of the time. Even after dorming with her the past six years, she barely felt like she knew the other girl. Samantha tried to be just as unreadable at times, but she never felt like she quite succeeded. Truly, she wasn’t trying to come off as judgmental asking the question, but wholly CURIOUS.

✉ Michael & Samantha

Samantha: You like Teen Wolf???

Samantha: I didn't know you liked Teen Wolf! I didn't know anyone liked Teen Wolf at Hogwarts!

Michael: Yes!!! 😊😊😊 I've seen all the episodes!!!

Michael: Who's your favorite?? Mine is Scott!!!

Samantha: OMG!!! MICHAEL!! MACMILLAN!!

Samantha: I love Allison the most. Unfortunately. I'm so happy they eventually brought her back. But Scott is second favorite, definitely!

[katsmoving]

she’s not the kind who needs saving, she became her own knight in shining armor, she forged her own sword and put on her own armor, she stepped into the flames with no fear of burning, she carried the weight of the world when no one asked her to, she became more than a savior, she became her own hero.

and you know heroes make the best legends // k.s. (via worthystevie)

ANNETTE BARDON.

“Really? You don’t think they’d mind—-maybe if he doesn’t come back tonight? I think it’d be hard to try and spot him in the dark….” Annette beamed up at the other girl, recounting her summer quickly, “It was great—-I spent a lot of time in France with my family but also spent some time here on the beach with my cousins, and Rhys of course—it was perfect, I definitely don’t want to come back to doing homework.” Of course, school had its upsides as well, so Annette wasn’t too sad to be back.

“They’d better not mind, I mean, this is your pet we’re talking about, he’s important. I know if my dog was missing, I’d want the same for me -- ALSO, you’d be surprised how effective lumos maxima actually is,” Sam smiled as she listened to her talk about her summer. It seemed lovely, normal, things that people her age were doing seemed so SURREAL to Samantha sometimes, “I’ve never understood the point of homework, actually. Your summer seemed wonderful though, like a dream.”

[samanthaxwood]

JAMES POTTER.

“ i sometimes wonder whether my mum ACTUALLY plays for the holyhead harpies or if that’s some wanker with polyjuice potion because she’s sent me  a n o t h e r  howler voicing her concerns for my ‘mental health.’ all i did was get a bludger to the face! it’s happened before and the woman still hasn’t picked up on my invincibility as though her husband and my father, the INVENTOR of living, hasn’t had worse. ”

Samantha almost wanted to laugh, firstly because she had played with the infamous Ginny Weasley over the summer ( and as a child, but that was when it was her father was more so the center of it all ), and secondly because of what he said. “The INVENTOR of living, clever,” she started, “yeah and that bludger to the face obviously hasn’t shrunk your big head -- which is what I assume she’s concerned about. Maybe that you’ve had so many to the head and it’s still not shrunken it?? Because I assure you, with my own eyes, she does ACTUALLY play with the Holyhead Harpies.”

BENJI FENWICK.

“Just help me make the bleeding stop?” She pressed her fingers to her nose with a grimace pointed to the boy knocked out cold on the ground. “He had a right hook– and in my defense he totally deserved to be punched?”

“Oh!! Oh god, okay!! Yeah, that’s blood, I’ll make it stop, no problem,” Samantha got her wand ( don’t think about it, don’t think about it, don’t think about it, don’t think about the BLOOD. you see blood ALL THE TIME.  ) and performed a quick nose setting spell. “There, and you’re right about that.                            ....... -- Isn’t that the SAME guy that harassed you last year too??”

[samanthaxwood]

MARLEY HUNT.

@samanthaxwood

               ❝ you trusted me then. ❞

“Things change, don’t take it PERSONALLY,” Sam tried to say as kindly as possible, because the truth was she didn’t trust people in general. The trust she used to have in humanity being HUMAN had been broken. “Maybe one day -- ...“

[samanthaxwood]

VALERIA CARROW.

“Sarcasm doesn’t really go with your grandma cardigan, Wood, but nice try. It might be more effective on someone who values your opinion, or you know, you in general.”

“You’ve never seen videos of grandma’s being sassy and stuff like that?? What kind of life do you live?? A SAD one??” Her next comment she tried not to take personally or even listen to at all, really, but it still hurt. “I just don’t UNDERSTAND why you’re like this. It’s sort of gross.”

[samanthaxwood]

HARRY CREEVEY.

“Most people do.” Harry answered with a slight shrug of his shoulders, “But perhaps you aren’t like most people, if you’re offended by the idea.”

“I just -- didn’t realize I came off that way, is all,” Samantha answered, her brain starting to go a million miles per hour, thinking of HOW she conducted herself and everything else that just seemed to riddle her mind then. Truly, Samantha didn’t know if she was like most people or not because she didn’t know even know what she was ACTUALLY like. Not really. “Thank you for alerting me of it, I’ll work on it.”
