I hate how Ginny antis call her the "cool girl" trope but don't have even close to the same energy for Hermione who ALSO participated in dragging Fleur, literally had a stereotypical Cinderella moment with Krum, is also more or less contrasted with Lavender the way Ginny is with Cho, is justified in her assault because she cried, and we're reminded all the time of how gosh darn smart she is.

another first of september has arrived and I still haven't seen my letter. hogwarts must change owls, mine seems shoddy: it's been lost for years now.

[yesloulou]

pleaseee sort all drivers, i am here for this crossover!

thank u for this ask i had so much fun i acc made a lil graph for it lol

first of all. daniel is a slytherin 100%!!! see tags on this post:

max -> hufflepuff: he's hard working (training in the rain) he's patient (waiting all those yrs at rb for a winning car) he's loyal (actually said he'll retire at rbr) and he's extremely fair (ad 22 when he refused to block charles to help checo his teammate get p2 in wdc)

(my chirlie mutual started hate shipping lestappen after this lol)

checo -> hufflepuff:the fact that his loyalty still lies with force india/racing point to this day... also the fact that he's able to maintain a surprisingly good relationship w daniel even though every day 20730847 articles come out talking about daniel taking his seat?? (according to c horner max and checo actually get on better when daniel is there). i feel like this is bc checo is a compassionate person (he had been in daniel's shoes in 2020) and he sees that it's fair daniel will ofc take the chance if he's able to get his old rb seat back.

charles -> slytherin: 1. the ambition of envisioning himself driving for ferrari since he was like a fetus 2. the being comfortable with lying for the greater good 3. the following jules his god father who was a first gen FDA driver pretty much step by step (heritage) 4. and the resourcefulness of getting himself endorsed by the Todt's at age 14.. that mouse is a slytherin!!! in fact. did you know he's affectionately known among the italian tifosi as 'viperella 🐍'? plz refer this brilliant scholarship by @dhufflebee.

carlos -> hufflepuff: when he said 'i was very good i was very fast today' with barely suppressed tears.... when he said his penalty was 'not deserved it is TOO SEVERE i said please please please please to wait to wait until the race is finished and speak to me'........ that was a man trembling w rage bc he was treated unfairly and his hard work was not valued

lewis -> ravenclaw: he's obviously either ravenclaw or slytherin and i think the fact that he likes to distance himself from his peers a lil bit to focus on racing puts him in the former. also whenever he's asked about things happening on the grid (daniel losing his seat, seb's retirement...) i get a feeling that he's very cordial yet doesn't get involved all that much.

george -> slytherin: you would think he has a similar family background to lando's bc of the extra posh accent he maintains and the way he dresses so well... wrong. you're actually looking at a man who values heritage more than you might think. he's ambitious and prepared and driven yet subtle about it (suffered all those years in williams for the merc oppurtinity). he's also a very prideful person imo (see: flipping vb the bird immediately after portugal 21 crash). slytherin thru and thru

fernando -> slytherin: next

lance -> ravenclaw: i can see the slytherin argument bc he comes from money but i feel like he values truths and facts more than he is prideful or unrelenting. see: fact checking max over 180 cm height (where the iconic 'he claims that?' came from). see also: 'ask george about my vegas tag junior win in 2012.. ask him about it.. yeah hahaha ask him about it...' also he has a certain calmness and resignation that comes from valuing facts and observations above else. see:

lando -> slytherin: i love him but the amount of times he whined on the radio so mcalren would team order daniel to maintain position and not fight..... the cunningness, the being comfortable with exaggerating his situations to his engineer... the benefiting from his heritage (the millions of pounds of norris money injected into mclaren).. the resourcefulness of somehow getting z brown involved with his personal brand quadrant which subsequently established mclaren and himself as a package deal... he's a slytherin. he makes fernando alonso proud.

esteban -> ravenclaw: idk esteban that well but the fact that he used to count checo's sins to every media post race back when they were teammates at racing point, then go on twitter with receipts knowing full well it wouldn't change a thing bc checo had the sponsors he didn't... este speaks with facts and he embodies ravenclaw's signature 'resigned cynics'

(the 'perez tried to kill me 2 times!' 😭)

pierre -> gryffindor: suzuka 22 post race where he hesitated but then started talking about jules anyway ("i don't think what happened today was respectful towards jules and his family"). he got a very heavy handed penalty from the fia afterwards which to me feels retaliating. that's a very brave boy. also he is not afraid to show his temper (example) and doesn't easily back down (the alleged shouting match with, and i kid you not, adrian newey). he is very gryffindor.

yuki -> gryffindor: he's obviously passion driven, hence temper <3. also i think the fact that he and pierre became such good friends despite being teammates and having incidents on track rlly speaks for how much they trust and are loyal to each other

alex -> hufflepuff: idk alex that well but the whole concept of drs train conductor is so very hufflepuff coded. i worked hard i was patient i dragged my tractor in front of yours so you're not overtaking me. it's all fair game.

logan -> slytherin: i mean obviously this was taken right outside of their commom room

– end –

p.s. shout out to @tyrannosaurus-maxy for organizing the sort the grid polls you're truly our trend setter!!! ✨

okay so hot take but... Sally Jackson keeping Percy with her and so exposing him to danger of both monsters and gabe (who it is heavily implied canonically hit percy) while not telling Percy he was in danger (of the monsters) to begin with is really interesting in comparison/parallel to molly weasley refusing to tell her youngest children anything about the war while they would arguably be big targets because of their proximity to Harry.

the way both fandoms respond to these characters is also really interesting with molly getting both support and a lot of criticism for it while sally is basically heralded as The Superior Mother universally in my experience

I'm currently listening to the Fantastic Beasts audiobook and, if you have it in your library or can find it around the web, I highly highly recommend, especially if you have a magizoologist mc /oc and need to get in the mood

It's probably no new info but just listening to it being read to you is very inspiring

Also for my fellow non Brits, since it's Eddie Redmayne and his accent is to die for, serious butterflies, super relaxing

Hey! I get it "new" flowers to make some kind of flu to glum on my new art notebook 📓 🙃. My classes probably start tomorrow. So i have to be okay 🏳✊🏻🍇

"the best way to screw jkr over is by making her characters queer!" actually. The best way to screw jkr over is to stop engaging with the property she still profits off of and read a different fucking book

do you hate Hermione?

I don't hate the character she was supposed to be. Hermione till books 1,2,3 and some of book 4 is a character that I like. Whatever tf is after that–no.

hufflepuff daniel sure whatever (deeply disagree but i get what they’re poking at) but RAVENCLAW?! 😭 every way you swing it that’s wild, whether it’s what he is himself or what he values😭😭 this isn’t even me calling him dumb, it’s just everything

[acupofsolace]

Headcanoning that Binns only teaches about maybe 3 different events in wizarding history because those were the topics he was preparing to teach/teaching when he died and so his unfinished business is getting to teach them
