buT HAVE YOU THOUGHT OF THIS OLIVER/PERCY HEADCANON:
the only two gryffindor boys in their year
which means their the only two in that dorms, meant for four or five
and in their first year, they choose beds furthest apart
bc oliver is like “this kid doesn’t like quidditch or football or even really being outside i’m confused and scared”
and percy was like jfc i thought i got away from my older brothers but here they are in this fucking scottish bloke
in their fifth year, oliver becomes quidditch captain and starts tracking mud into the room after every practice and percy is pisSED
percy gets even more pissed when oliver moves one bed closer bc of a “draft” bc why is he ruining a good thing???
also he’s maybe the most frustrating man percy’s ever met and percy grew up with the twins??
he just gRINS when you yell at him????????
and then does exactly what you ask him like you yelling doesn’t even bother him at all???
in their sixth year, the house-elves take away the two beds percy and oliver aren’t using bc they have a huge class that year in slytherin and now percy and oliver are sleeping RIGHT. NEXT. TO. EACH OTHER.
and percy hates the way oliver snores and puts his muddy cloak on the floor next to percy’s bed
and oliver is pants at potions and asks for percy’s help all. the. time.
and percy knows all the answers, of course, but it’s just so fucking irritating the way oliver puts his reading glasses on and turns the lights down so he can focus and plays this really slow, sweet muggle music
and when it happens the last time, oliver is sitting on his bed when percy walks in from rounds and it’s late and the floor is caked with dirt from the pitch and and oliver’s quidditch robes are pilled in a ball at the foot of his bed
and he looks up and grins at percy and says “hey mate! do you get amortentia because i’m totally lost?”
and percy starts on about the mud and the clothes and before he knows it, he’s nose to nose with oliver and he’s got that same fucking grin and percy doesn’t quite under -- he doesn’t -- he’s full of the warm yellow light from the lamp and oliver’s lips are somewhat chapped from the wind but they feel so good and percy’s not so angry about anything anymore
