I didn't expect to fall for you, Sharlotta. Not at all.
Your confidence was something I envied from the moment I met you. How is it that someone as short as you can be so infuriatingly smug about the damnedest things? And Merlin, I still have the scar on my foot from the Chinese Chomping Cabbage you sacked on me when I was showing you the greenhouse.
But getting to know you, watching you fight like there was no tomorrow... I'm afraid you grew on me. You grew on me, and I didn't even realize it until I was sitting in my dorm at midnight, thinking about how I desperately wanted to see you again.
Gods, this whole note is a mess.
Not knowing where you are, whether you're dead or alive, it kills me. I just have to hope that some day you're going to come back, and maybe I'll have the confidence to tell you this myself...
I love you Sharlotta Solokova.
Now, to burn this before Wood sees it.

Another comm from the amazing @yoshitsuno! This time it’s Sharlotta Solokova and Leander Prewett. I’m obsessed with how this turned out and super thankful to Yoshi for giving me some art tips as she did it!
Alright! Yule Zine is up, which means I can share some of the individual screenshots in the background of my main piece! If you want to see the full main piece, the link to the Yule Zine is here!
Sebthea (@light-of-the-room I know you were asking about this haha)
Popadore (I’ve shared this before but it’s getting shared again. Newt Scamander’s parents everyone.)
Jackwood and Edward Glasspetal without his glasses. And a date. Rip.
Garlilah being absolute CUTIES
And Prewkova making out because of course they are
I’m so glad I was able to participate this year and I can’t wait to see what more is to come!
I’m so sorry, I could’ve sworn I sent an ask yesterday!! The past few days have been a little rough… I hope you’re doing better than I am❤️
Anyway! I have a few questions for you! Since I asked angst questions before, I suppose now I’ll ask comfort questions🥰
How do your couples best comfort and support each other during hard times? 🫂
Q for Victoria: which of these would best help when you’re stressed? Weighted blanket, warm clothes, comfort food/drink, calming music, a nice bath, hugs, etc.
Any-couple question: an old childhood wound (any kind) only the other was able to heal?❤️🩹
I’ve started working on your gift and am looking forward to giving it to you next month💕 (though if it’s a few days early/late it’s because things are getting busier on my end😭) wishing you all the best, and hope school is going well for you🫶
Love,
Your Secret Valentine ❤️
You’re completely fine but oh my goodness, I’m sorry things have been rough for you Valentine! I hope things get better for you soon!
Also I’m sorry for answering this later, I have been working on school for a bit.
1. This is a fun question!
Delilah and Garreth: Garreth will make Delilah Pepperup Potion when she's feeling really down; Delilah makes him soup. It's good soup. He likes the soup. 10/10 soup.
Leander and Sharlotta: They both will take a spontaneous hiking trip; Sharlotta because she knows Leander would love to see the flora, Leander because he knows Sharlotta misses the cold and being outside.
Newt and Evangeline: Newt will literally throw Eva in with the kelpie to keep her spirits up because for some reason they really, really like each other; Evangeline cuddles with Newt when he's feeling overwhelmed or down
Theseus and Ashma: Ashma has literally kidnapped him before so like. She does it whenever he needs something new in his life. He gets kidnapped from his office at least once a week. Theseus once sang to Ashma when she was incredibly sick and it was "the funniest thing he has ever done in his entire life" so he. Yeah. Keeps that in mind.
Percy and Victoria: making out /hj
Radiant and Oliver: Oliver takes Radiant flying whenever she is feeling down; Radiant plays Quidditch with him when he needs a pick-me-up
2. Lemme just harness my inner Victoria for a second
"Warm clothes and a nice bath. Water has been a place of refuge for me ever since third year when... well, that doesn't matter. And I don't think anyone would turn down a warm nightgown."
3. Get ready for some Popadoreeeee
Poppy and Theodore both gave each other a family when they didn't have one as children. Poppy's parents were literally poachers and Theodore lost all of his immediate family (except in @leawshum's Modern AU where his aunt is with @gilded-blue-snake's Cosmia but that's one AU lmfao) so they had next to no one.
Thank you for the questions again! And don't stress on the gift, I'm sure it will be wonderful! I hope things don't get too busy for you!
Just three questions today but they’re cool ones I think🤞 These can apply to any and as many of your couples as you want🥰
Do any of your couples have animagus forms? If they do, how do they interact differently in said forms? OR, if they don’t have animagi forms, how do their patronuses interact (idk if patronuses can canonically interact but just pretend lmao)
Pick an alternate century of your choosing for one of your couples to evolve in, and talk about why the different time period affected their relationship development!💕
Pet peeves that became endearing after they got together? Pet peeves that are still annoying even after years of marriage?😂
Have some flowers to brighten up your day☺️🌹🌸💐🌺🌻🪻
Love,
Your Secret Valentine 💕
Hey Valentine! Three questions works perfectly haha, I'm back at school so I don't have as much time for fun stuff like this.
1. So, Perctoria are actually both animaguses (anamagi? Idk) Victoria's animagus form being a mute swan, Percy's being a Canadian goose. Most of the time, they just use their animagus forms to travel incognito, so their dynamic really isn't that different, but Percy is still incredibly protective of Victoria, even as a goose.
I have this image of Victoria being mugged or something and her mugger being absolutely destroyed by this goose 😭
Crude edits by me, actually good art by @light-of-the-room. The things around Victoria's neck are bracelets from @talktothepinkquill's Eljay lol.
Ashma Fahlstrom is also an animagus! Being a raven, she likes very shiny things, so she frequently steals Theseus's Auror badge and causes havoc in his office.
2. I'm trying so hard to put any of my HL couples in the modern AU but I'm struggling, so congrats Glasswood you're going to the 1800s.
Societal expectations of women were very different in the 19th century. Radiant wouldn't have been able to be as brash and sarcastic as she is in main canon, and I very much doubt she would have been allowed to play sports like Quidditch. Meeting Oliver would probably be a bit more of a challenge.
Once they get together though? Fireworks. Explosions.
3. Leander and Sharlotta yapping because I don't yap about them very often lol
Sharlotta very often will trail off mid-sentence. Most of the time it's because she is trying to translate Ukrainian to English. Leander did find this incredibly irritating when they first met, but he became more patient with time.
Leander's obsession with plants does occasionally annoy Sharlotta into adulthood though lmao
Thank you for all these wonderful questions! I look forward to seeing you again tomorrow!
