“Are you absolutely sure you want this? You can’t get revenge and keep your spotless reputation,” he reminded.
The look on her face was set, her eyes shone with a rage not directed at him.
“Sometimes revenge is a choice you’ve got to make.”
Fueled by the pain of watching Ron snog Lavender Brown, Hermione seeks the help of Draco Malfoy in order to get revenge. 6th year, Dramione.
every time i listen to “you’re a mean one mr. grinch” i can’t help but sit there and think “what did the grinch do to hurt you?” because dude just stands there for 2 minutes and 58 seconds and drags the grinch into the dirt

Who Are You? by Dark Wings Of Imagination
On Emma Swan's 28th birthday she didn't expect for the boy she gave up for adoption ten years prior to appear at her door, neither she would have imagined that his adoptive mother was the woman whom had been hunting her dreams. Regina Mills didn't think certain dreams could come true, specially those about the mysterious blonde woman whom been present in her mind. Both would soon be proven wrong.
The Captain and His Queen by lynddsbeth
Regina protects Killian from her mother. They realize that they have more in common than they thought and start to fall for each other. Will they be able to forget their need for revenge? Or will life get in the way of their budding relationship?
Regina Mills is finally back home in America after serving 10 yrs in a high security prison in Mexico. She was paroled on good behaviour. Her crime? Having her husband murdered in a “botched up hi jack” whilst vacationing in Mexico. The hi jacker - Sidney Glass - turned her in after he was caught and told just how many years he’d be serving for his crime and so he cut a deal after he realised she never really did love him. So Regina goes to trial and pleads guilty by reason of self defence - she claims that it was an arranged marriage to a man old enough to be her father, and in which she had been tormented to 8 years of marital rape and severe beatings. She’d finally had enough when nobody would believe her so she took matters in her own hands and orchestrated this ho jacking when a planned business trip to Mexico came up. The Mexican courts were not sympathetic to her reasoning and gave her 30 yrs in a high security Mexican prison.
So now she is back in America, and makes her home in a new town where nobody knows her - Storybrooke, Maine. She’s looking for a quiet life away from the press and prying eyes.
After just a couple of days of settling into her new home, she finally braves the grocery store and whilst waiting in a queue to buy her things, the person behind (Dr Whale, perhaps?) her recognises her and starts hurling accusations at her. Emma, the off duty sheriff, is in store doing her own shopping with her son Henry. She hears the commotion and goes to investigate. She recognises Regina and comes to the rescue and stands up for Regina. She then waits for Regina to pay for her things and escorts her to her car in case she has more trouble with Whale or anybody else. She even offers to follow Regina home just in case. Regina is hesitant but then accepts after she sees Whale exiting the store and eyeing her. It turns out that Regina lives in the same apartment building as Emma and Henry. They become friends and Regina slowly let’s her walls down and confides in Emma. Emma has her built in lie detector and knows Regina is telling the truth when she tells Emma that she did what she did in self defence. That Leo had once beaten her so badly, she was left incapacitated for days and locked in a room with just bread and water. She knew one day he’d kill her so she decided to kill him first. So they start out as friends and then more…SQ happy ending.
“I know I’ve told this story before, but my abusive ex refused to let me take birth control. I was on the pill until he found them in my purse. I went to the Student Health Center—they were completely unhelpful, choosing to lecture me about the importance of safe sex (recommending condoms) instead of actually listening to my problem. Then I went to Planned Parenthood. The Nurse Practitioner took one look at my fading bruises and stopped the exam. She called in the doctor. The doctor came in and simply asked me: “Are you ready to leave him?” When I denied that I was being abused, she didn’t argue with me. She just asked me what I needed. I said I need a birth control method that my boyfriend couldn’t detect. She recommended a few options and we decided on Depo. When I told her that my boyfriend read my emails and listened to my phone messages and was known to follow me, she suggested to do the Depo injections at off hours when the clinic was normally closed. She made a note in my chart and instructed the front desk never to leave messages for me—instead, she programmed her personal cell phone number into my phone under the name “Nora”. She told me she would call me to schedule my appointments; she wouldn’t leave a message, but I should call her back when I was able to. And that was it. No judgment. No lecture. She walked me to the door and told me to call her day or night if I needed anything. That she lived 5 blocks from campus and would come get me. That I wasn’t alone. That she just wanted me to be safe. I never called her to come to my rescue. But I have no doubt that she would have come if I had called. She kept me on Depo for a year, giving me those monthly injections in secret, helping me prevent a desperately unwanted pregnancy. I cannot thank Planned Parenthood enough for the work they do.”

I know I’ve reblogged this before, but it bears re-reblogging (?). This is how you respond to abuse, this is how you give people control over their bodies/uteruses, this is how you act as a generally non-judgmental and compassionate person. I love this story so fucking much.
