[James And Regulus Making Out]

unironically how i felt during the time i took a final exam so sleep deprived i kept drifting off every few seconds and had to dig my nails into my arms to stay alert enough to finish it, also every blowout showdown emotional trainwreck argument with my mom

a wonderful ao3 author note

i think the reason i love studio ghibli as much as i do is because it encompasses everything i love about life. wearing clothes that make you feel young and free that you can run and jump and climb trees in. the sense of peace that only comes from sitting on a train watching scenes move by the in windows, walking through the city at night, reading on a bench. the way there is so much grief and pain and hardship in each movie, and the world being torn apart but in spite of that, there is wholesomeness and warmth in bowls of noodles and dinner with your family and singing loudly without worrying about what your voice sounds like, and if you love someone enough it doesn’t matter that the world is falling apart around you. it’s about romanticising the little things in life, the hot mug of tea, that moment in the streetlight in the rain, the sunrise looking pretty through your little window; and it’s about the quiet, soft, warm moments you share with other people through those. those the things i cling onto in life, the small moments of joy that make life worth living.

this one has been in the works for a couple years now! i wrote most of what it currently is over this past summer, and finally wrapped up the in-betweens these last couple days, but at last, here is the 11.5k oneshot i affectionately refer to as my bakukami manifesto:

hummingbird, get what you want!

it's also a sort of veiled introduction to the premise of the verse in which i plan to set my kaminari crackfic, but that one is barely even a concept in my brain, so don't think too hard about it yet :P though it's not quite everything i wanted it to be, it's darn close enough, and i've been keeping y'all waiting long enough. so please, enjoy :) next ao3 post on friday!

there is an interesting tension to be had when both the malfoy and weasley families have been sorted into their respective hogwarts house for generations upon generations, and we come to find that despite surface-level appearances: draco isn't the most slytherin of slytherins, and ron isn't the most gryffindor of gryffindors

i’m always like “i can’t wait to feel good and confident and grow into the best, healthiest version of me!!!!!” while doing horrible acts of self sabotage like girl it doesn’t work like that u are pressing the gas and break at the same time stop it

FICS

me the literal instant i have an original/mildly introspective and/or philosophical thought: now how do i translate this into the fic im writing rn; what fake scenario do i need to create

ok i need to get back to writing. one thing to know about me is that often i write these elaborate aus as a way of expressing a greater breadth of thoughts because im literally incapable of thinking of anything that isn't the hyperfixation so its really surreal to just do it normally because i like my story
