Me at age 13, exhausted at school after staying up all night to read fanfic: I can’t wait until I’m an adult and I can stay up reading without any consequences!

Me, an adult, exhausted at work after staying up all night reading fanfic: Fuck.

Tom Riddle is not unemotional. He is fucking ruled by them.

Color me a skeptic when I come across depictions of Tom as this stoic, stone-cold ice prince of Slytherin.

That was what he tried to project himself as, but at his core, Tom Marvolo Riddle is like a ripe fruit, almost about to burst with pent-up emotions.

I fully endorse the headcanon that deep down, Tom takes after the Gaunts more than the Riddles.

He did a grand job aping their distinguished disposition and glacial aura (his aristocratic looks helped too), but scratch the surface, and he's a Gaunt, a slave to his passions.

Apathy is not his Achilles heel. Avarice and arrogance are.

He's not immune to emotions. On the contrary, he's at their mercy. He's not the type to hide his emotions for long. At the first opportunity, he will make sure the world knows about his feelings, whether it wants to or not. Have you seen him monologue his entire life story and unresolved daddy and mummy issues to his prophesied enemy?

There’s nothing measured, controlled, or austere in my Tom.

He is prone to excess. Just as his Gaunt forefathers thoughtlessly squandered their immense wealth, he too wasted his brilliance, his genius, and his remarkable talent and shredded his soul to pieces in the pursuit of immortality.

Far from being unsusceptible to desire, he wanted so much and got so greedy that he ultimately orchestrated his own destruction.

Lavender Brown & Percy Weasley.

One of the reasons I like Grindelwald and his Alliance more than Voldemort and the Death Eaters is that they are calm, quiet, mysterious, classy, and stylish, unlike Voldemort and most of his Death Eaters who scream and make noise when they kill and have a strange dark mark and love to show off and make noise and play crazy. They are very cheap, classless, and unstylish (except for the Malfoys 😔✨).And in general, Grindelwald and his Alliance's goal was for the Greater Good.But Voldemort's goal was only power, and the Death Eaters' goal was pure, strong, and dark magic.

Reading Emily Wilde’s Encyclopaedia of Faeries and what a neurodivergent icon she is. She gets marriage proposals from NOT ONE but TWO faerie kings in a single night with pure autistic swagger

i love wendell bambleby with my whole heart. the man has exactly three motives and outside of them he cannot do a single task without bitching copiously about it. they are: (1) my wife is the most wondrous being in existence and she shall want for nothing ever again, (2) this house has NOT been properly kept!! (yes i do count the silva lupi as an unkempt house), and (3) Pure Vibes

no more brooding, stoic assholes as love interests. from now on i will only accept pathetic, fussy, pretty boys who genuinely collapse if they are not surrounded by enough soft blankets and sweets and are completely smitten with their wife

Wendell Bambleby is how you write a love interest. He is literally the standard (no more shadow daddies please)

This man pined for 10 years but didn't do anything until Emily was comfortable. He was okay with being friends if she refused. He offered to give her his true name. He wanted to show her everything in his realm but offered to let her go back to the human world if she missed it. He prioritised her happiness over everything else!!

Also he's just really babygirl and he has a MAGICAL cat!
