Murderous Talk

By Teomi for the 100 to 1k NottPott Challenge.

Prompt: smoke

Harry clawed into his robe below the table, where Professor Snape couldn’t see. Theo pursed his lips. He allowed himself this much, when his housemates were otherwise distracted by the scene their Head of House created. Harry stared into their professor’s face, still as a statue, green eyes dulled by the smoke and verbal beating.

My favorite line is actually this one:

Stress, exhaustion and the tournament hadn’t done Harry in yet, but it looked like Professor Snape was trying to pick up the slack.

SO good.

I aim to please <3 I was really stumped by this fortnight's prompt at first, but as soon as potion smoke came to mind, I felt the urge to write!

The dream of my life is to lie down by a slow river and stare at the light in the trees — to learn something by being nothing a little while but the rich lens of attention.

the horrors persist but so do books, art, hot chocolate, winter nights, the moon, the sea, the stars, sunsets, literature, libraries, cats, flowers, stories, love and the wistful feeling you get when you finally return home

What they don't tell you about writing is that as you write, you discover scenes and entire plots that you hadn't accounted for that need to be written. So you can spend two hours writing and editing only to realise you're further away from the finish line than you thought you were when you started

art will save you, being unreasonably passionate about something niche will save you, letting past sources of joy show you the way back to yourself will save you, earnestness over composure will save you, the natural world will save you, caring for something bigger than yourself will save you, daring to be seen will save you, kindness not as a whim but a principle will save you, appreciation as a practice will save you, daring to try something new will save you, grounding will save you, love will save you, one good nights sleep will save you

There is no drug on earth that can replicate the absolute euphoria of hitting a writing flow state at 2:00 AM. You aren’t even typing anymore. You are a vessel. You are a channel for the gods. The characters are speaking directly into your brain and you’re just the stenographer trying to keep up. You feel like you could fight a bear. You feel like you invented the alphabet
