This is my love letter to the most beautiful ship I witnessed this year. Cheers to us Jayvik nation 💫
What you see when you step into the Slytherin common room.
Random 10:30 pm thought: In ‘All That Glitters’ Mike seduces Gwen and then takes advantage of her attraction to him to feed off her, acting against her bodily autonomy, an act that can and does turn people into his thralls. This is generally treated as akin to sexual assault, he’s completely irredeemable, most horrible villain on the show (not an exaggeration, I’ve seen him referred to as worse than Vilgax and Servantis)
In ‘In Charm’s Way’ Charmcaster seduces Kevin and then takes advantage of his attraction to her to seize control over his mind and body, acting against his bodily autonomy, an act that can and does literally enslave him to her will. This is not generally treated as akin to sexual assault, she’s easily the most redeemable character on the show (even moreso than Kevin himself), our own personal Woobie Destroyer of Worlds
Why?
i know ive got some extra veins and extra nerves, im hoping one day acting cool will make me feel self assured
(if i had a nickel for every time ive drawn transgender vent art using gwen as a vehicle id have two nickels which isnt a lot but its weird i did it twice)
ekko loving jinx or powder is a meaningless argument cuz the entire point of episode 7 is for both ekko and you the viewer to learn "jinx" and "powder" are the same person and ekko loves that person— not their good side or their bad side, but the whole package.
that's why their love song is called my best enemy, and talks about the worst blessings and the best curses. and that's how he can talk jinx off the ledge. the contradiction of being in love with your enemy is the entire basis of their story.
powder at one point literally asks him point blank "so you want me to change?" and he flat out says no: cuz he knows everything that makes 'powder' powder given one favorable set of circumstances also makes 'jinx' jinx given another set of unfavorable circumstances.
there is no powder or jinx, it's just ekko and his blue-haired paramour, in every timeline.

happy birthday to severus snape also known as the main character
Katara is so REAL for this :D
It's a shame Harry never met anyone the Marauders bullied at school - the boy whose head they blew out (I couldn't find his full name, but he was Aubrey, I think?), the ones they cursed in the corridors out of boredom. Someone other than Snape that Harry (and the reader) is biased towards. Like someone from the Ministry or an Auror he had to deal with. Harry learns that this person went to school with his father and expects to hear praise, stories about how great James was at school, how cool he played Quidditch, what a hero he was, etc., but what he gets is something like:
"Oh, that motherfucker... Inflated my head like a balloon. I had to go to St. Mungo's after that! Do you see this scar? I got it from your father. He was a total asshole."
Thinking about them again
