Rarry of course for the ask game

Gives nose/forehead kisses: Ron, more often than not. Harry’s too short and has to push Ron to the closest flat surface to kiss his nose/forehead. It’s not easy having a giant boyfriend. 

Gets jealous the most: Both. Equally so. Though after years together, it gets better, with better communication and them being more confident in their own skins and their relationship. 

Picks the other up from the bar when they’re too drunk to drive: Ron.

Takes care of on sick days: Ron. Well, Harry tries, of course, but he fumbles with this kinda thing a lot. But it’s the thought that counts anyway. And he gets better. His chicken soup alone is enough.  

Drags the other person out into the water on beach day: Ron. He drags a fully clothed (glasses included) Harry to the water after ten warnings that Harry didn’t take seriously, which is his own fault, of course. 

Gives unprompted massages: Harry. He’s naturally good at it for some reason. 

Drives/rides shotgun: Harry drives and Ron rides shotgun, seat all the way back, hat and sunglasses on as he sleeps most of the ride away, despite Harry’s complains and the loud music. 

Brings the other lunch at work: RON.

Has the better parental relationship: so rude. Ok. Harry. Like the obvious answer is Ron, but we all know it’s Harry. 

Tries to start role-playing in bed: Ron.  He’s kinky, ok, I don’t care what y’all say. He would want to try everything at least once.  

Embarrassingly drunk dancer: Harry. Harry is just an embarrassing drunk all around. 

Still cries watching Titanic: Both. Every time. It stopped being embarrassing after the fourth time. They even started holding each other while watching it, which led to them cuddling every time they’re watching tv, no matter what movie they’re watching.  

Firmly believes in couples costumes: Ron. Especially after they started watching all those muggle movies. 

Breaks the expensive gift rule during Christmas: Harry, obviously.  

Makes the other eat breakfast: Ron. Breakfast is Ron’s specialty. 

Remembers anniversaries: They both do. Only Hermione is surprised by this. 

Brings up having kids: Harry brings it up first, a few months after they got together. Just a small offhanded comment about wanting to be a father one day. Ron, years later, when he’s telling Harry he wants to quit his job and ready to settle down and have kids. 

Thank you <3

It's actually Peeta who's the stricter parent. The minute one of her kids gives her big, puppy eyes, Katniss melts and can't uphold whatever discipline/punishment they agreed upon.

strongly agree | agree | neutral | disagree | strongly disagree

I actually totally agree with this! Katniss is an indulgent Mama when it comes to her kids, because she wants to give them everything. Papa is the one they must learn to mind. He is kind, but he is also firm.

(Though Katniss is probably the more protective parent).

The following hot takes from the book club, this week discussing ‘Emma’ by Jane Austen;

Paul Rudd should play Lord Havelock Vetinari in the next Discworld adaptation

Emma is bisexual and in love with Harriet

Said-bisexuality is why she dislikes Mr Martin

Harriet is a introvert who was adopted by an extrovert who everyone seems to like (not too dissimilar to another introvert with a similar name, who was adopted by a certain extroverted redheaded wizard)

Alan Cummings is hilarious in everything he does

The meaning of the phrase ‘he made passionate love to her’ has changed immensely since Jane Austen originally wrote it to mean a love confession

Fancying both Emma and Mr Knightly is bi culture

Any other thoughts @hillnerd @lytefoot @warriorlid14 @nagemeikenu and @fivenamereveals?

So I'm rereading Animorphs and reread the scene where Jake finds a picture of Elfangor's family in the ship. I always assumed it was him and Ax and his parents, but the children described are small- so it can't be adult Elfangor and a small Ax. Do you think Elfangor had another family? Did K.A.A screw up? Maybe the family of a friend who he also sees as family? I was wondering what your thoughts were on this.

I’ve always wondered about that moment, and tbh I just go with it being Ax and Elfangor as kids, because otherwise it doesn’t fit.  Yes, it’s a little off with the age difference, but maybe Elfangor’s in, like, late andalite-adolescence and Ax is an andalite-toddler at the time?

Alternately...

Jake: *sees a photo of Elfangor, Loren, bby!Tobias, and Dude just sitting on Elfangor’s fighter console*

Jake internally: Huh.  Guess those andalite types look really different under all that blue furry stuff.  Except for the ones that, apparently... *squints* Sprout even more fur?  And it’s orange?

Jake’s narration: Anyway, there was a photo of, like, two larger andalites?  And two andalite kids?  I guess?  I’m not a xenobiologist.  But based on context clues that’s what it must’ve been.

--- two days later ---

Jake: Hey Tobias, are you sure that your cat is really a cat and not, uh...

Tobias: What’s that?

Jake: You know, not...

Jake: *sticks both hands on top of his head and wiggles his index fingers like they’re stalk eyes*

Tobias: Uh, what?

Jake: You know what, never mind.  Must’ve imagined it.

I'm thinking about the “you think I can’t recognize my best friend?” trope you brought up. And just imagining that scene from many movies where there's the real person and the clone (polyjyiced version). And usually there's so much drama and indecision. But in this case the clone is barely opening his mouth to say "I can prove it" before Ron immediately stuns him. Harry doesn't even get a chance to think about how to convince Ron it's him. The dramatic music in the background immediately stops.

Right?

I feel like Harry is much more the “Stun both of them and wait for the polyjuice to wear off, just to be safe,” type, or at least would hesitate and fret over the possibility of being wrong.

Whereas Ron wouldn’t even need to see the two of them together, he’d just be like, looks at fake, “That’s not Harry.” “How do you know?” “Because I recognize Harry.”

On the other hand, the idea of someone trying to imitate Harry around someone who actually knows him is super funny to me, because Harry’s public persona is very different from his actual personality. Like, most people don’t actually know what an enormous dork Harry is. So, like.

Impostor: Acts grim and intimidating, misses one opportunity for sarcasm.

Ginny, already casting a hex: “Who are you and what did you do with my husband?”

When we are talking about The Silver Doe chapter in Deathly Hallows on the zoom book chat :

@warriorlid14​ : “ok but ron saving harry was the best way to break the ice”

Everyone: 

I totally started a laughing attack, @hillnerd​ had to mute me.

Unpopular opinion: Ron likes being the little spoon, too!

strongly agree | agree | neutral | disagree | strongly disagree

He deserves to be the little spoon!

Gale, pls? (Please take all the time you need)

Amazing I was listening to music this morning and thinking about Gale so I am READY

edit: here's a link

1. The Contender - The Glorious Sons

“I could have been a contender  But my head wasn't cold enough As a child my wild eyes made up for what I was not Now the chains rattle and I don't even care I'm too young to be sure And I'm far too old to be scared”

2. And So It Went - The Pretty Reckless

“And so it went The children lost their minds Crawlin' over bodies of those who gave their lives And the fists began to throw And the fire starts to blaze Don't you think they know They're the fuckin' human race?”

3. Crying In The Rain - AHA

“I'll never let you see The way my broken heart is hurting me I've got my pride and I know how to hide All my sorrow and pain I'll do my crying in the rain”

4. Don’t Look Back In Anger - Oasis

“I'm gonna start a revolution from my bed 'Cause you said the brains I had went to my head Step outside 'cause summertime's in bloom Stand up beside the fireplace Take that look from off your face 'Cause you ain't ever gonna burn my heart out”

5. Brilliant - Shinedown 

“Say it if you're one of us The beaten and the furious Been chastised, analyzed, for the very last time It's all the same (Believe it or not) But this ain't a game (And I'll never stop) So you better run for your life “Let me clear my throat, let me catch my breath Let my heart bleed out till there's nothing left It's my day to be brilliant”
