James walking downstairs on a Instagram call with zane looking over: oh I couldn't invite anyone but al could!?

Albus has been ignoring Karl and he is incredibly upset over it

[yannfredericks]

thinking now and always about my favourite karl jenkins interpretation where he’s hopelessly oblivious to the fact that what hes doing to albus and scorpius is bullying and instead thinks they have incredible banter and are on their way to becoming fast friends!!!!

I have so many Yarlscorbus thoughts right now but they mostly just consist of my brain going "YARLSCORBUS, YARLSCORBUS, YARLSCORBUS" like a kid chanting for McDonalds.

Some Albus x Karl dynamics before getting together

Because @rigeljayy is having an influence on me with the two. Also I have a headcannon that Karl blushes easily, which Albus finds both amusing and hilarious.

Karl: You really think I’d ever like someone like you, Potter? It’s disgusting.

Albus: smirking Sure, whatever helps you sleep at night. You do realize you turn bright red every time you even look at me, right?

---

Karl: I don’t care what you think, Albus. I’m not some queer to fall for you.

Albus: Oh, don't worry, Karl. No one's expecting you to fall for me. But the way you act... it’s almost like you do. chuckles Nice blush, by the way.

---

Karl: I don’t like you. And I’m definitely not interested in whatever nonsense you think is going on here.

Albus: No one’s asking you to be interested, Karl. But every time I walk by, you look like you’re about to combust. You should really work on that blush.

---

Karl: You think I’m a fool, don’t you? I’d never be into someone like you.

Albus: smirking No, Karl. You’re not a fool. Just an incredibly obvious one. The more you deny it, the more I think you’re into me.

---

Karl: I’d rather die than be in love with you, Potter.

Albus: That’s funny, Karl. You’re already dead in the face every time you try to act tough around me. Those blushes aren’t fooling anyone.

---

Karl: Stop looking at me like that, Potter. I’m not that way.

Albus: Oh, I’m just admiring the way you blush like a tomato every time I talk to you. You might want to work on hiding that, or people will start to get ideas.

---

Karl: You think I like you, Potter? What a joke.

Albus: grinning Oh, trust me, Karl. If only you knew how funny it is to watch you dig yourself deeper. The way you go on about how much you don’t like me—your face gives you away every time.

---

Albus: You’ve been glaring at me for ten minutes. Are you sure you’re not in love with me?

Karl: turning red Shut up, Potter! I don’t like you!

Albus: Keep saying that, Karl. It gets more amusing each time. Also, the red face? Perfect timing.

Ok but imagine karlbus in the crush phase!? Like they start to get to the point where they're begrudgingly close with each other, sitting together in classes where they dont know anybody else and having competitive banter with each other. Going from petty rivals to begrudgingly being freinds that cant help but make fun of and tease eachother. Just think about it-

They're both sitting in potions. Albus relaxing since he's already far ahead and Karl focusing on studying for their next exam. Albus had gotten to the point where he was comfortable with his name. Him and his father reconciled, and albus having gained his own sense of worth outside of his family name. So as albus watches his crush flick through the pages of his text book he gets an idea, Digging through his bag, grabbing his quill, and pulling Karl's arm closer to him. Before Karl can say anything albus dips his quill in ink, and with a smirk on his lips he starts writing on his arm. Karl- who's completely confused at this point just sits there, used to the random urge to draw on him that albus gets sometimes. Karl spaces out for a moment, not thinking about the lines being drawn on him until his partner stops and pulls away. looking down he expects to see a little doodle or mabye some insult or joke, Only to see albus's name written along his wrist. Karl looks up and sees albus's prideful expression as leans closer to him before saying-

"There, now you have the better potter's signature."

I didn't put to much effort into writing this and it's probably cringe but me and @rigeljayy were talking about this hc and i wanted to share!
