you forgot the best part of the book 😂
Gwen: have you seen Morgana?
Arthur: No. Why are you asking me? I haven’t seen her. I haven’t seen any Morgan as around here. I would not kill any Morganas. Stop asking me anymore questions.

please help me find this fic. And thank you
hello beautiful people, I was wondering if you could help me find a fic on ao3. I’m pretty sure it was post-war 8th year. Draco was being being bullied and harassed. I think Zachariah smith was one of the big bullies. And Harry is really possessive and protective of Draco. But Harry had started using dark magic and it was currupting him a bit. I think he almost killed someone for hurting Draco. He realized he was scaring Draco and stopped. Then he made a promise to Kingsley that he would stop using dark magic and the process was similar to a detox. I’m sorry if it’s too little or completely wrong. Thank you for anything tho
Sorry, we could not find this fic. Maybe one of our followers can help!

You know, nothing could convince me that Ginny wrote the valentine’s poem in Chamber of Secrets. Absolutely nothing. That is 100% an on-brand Draco Malfoy ‘ploy’ (okay) to ‘piss off’ (sure) his ‘rival’ (uh huh).
I mean, first of all, we pretty much always get a Dramatic & Cunning Draco Prank in the books (until he gets older and shit starts getting more real). Not so much in book one — he was still in Planning and Seething Mode™️ — but after that, Draco was like:
Year two: Stay up all night composing the perfect valentine poem to embarrass and annoy Potter
Year three: Stay up all night making Dementor costumes to scare and piss off Potter
Year four: Stay up all night making Potter Stinks badges because I’m so well-adjusted about him and barely think of him at all, actually
Also, I’ve talked about this before, but it really just doesn’t sound like Ginny. Why would she compare his eyes to pickled toads? (Meanwhile, Draco would 100% do that.) Why would she refer to the ‘Dark Lord’, when we only see Voldemort referred to as that by death eaters? And she had so much shit going on at the time, and was terrified of the gaps in her memory and what was happening — I don’t think she was writing love poems.
And really, it’s the fact that Malfoy is the one to act like Ginny wrote it. Which tells me two things:
He’s noticed Ginny’s crush and dislikes it (and is jealous/angry at her about it….. like why else would he care?? why would he notice???)
He’s deflecting attention from himself as the actual author of the poem
I can just totally see Malfoy finding out about Lockhart’s valentine idea, scoffing at Crabbe and Goyle and being like “that’s so stupid”, but then thinking about it later and telling himself “this is the perfect way to embarrass Potter.” Twelve year old Draco staying up late in his four poster bed, coming up with hilarious rhymes for his not-at-all-romantic love poem….. I see it. I see the vision.

Dearest PopGirls,
I'm beyond proud to finally present Mink's official guide to Parseltongue, created with the invaluable help of @creature-of-insomnia . This guide wouldn't be what it is without Ana; I couldn't have done it without her.
We've both worked incredibly hard to develop the Parseltongue language, not only for my story but also for you, dear readers. Now, instead of relying on mindless hissing or made-up words, you have a structured language to use in your fanfictions. The guide draws from the Parseltongue used in the films and is influenced by Greek words. Unlike the existing Parseltongue alphabets I've seen on the internet, which feel unrealistic and are often just based on the English alphabet, as well as entirely too long to be used in actual sentences, we've crafted something authentic and concise — something that can be used naturally in sentences.
It fills me with immense joy to finally share this with you all. I'm incredibly proud of what we've created.
The majority of the spreadsheet is complete, although me and Ana are still working hard on it to be as perfect as it can be.
My only request is that you give credit if you use it in your fanfics. If you'd like to contribute by suggesting words you'd like to see in this guide, please feel free to comment, and I'll do my best to add them.
You can find the official guide here:
