I’ve always shipped Matilda Weasley and Chiyo Kogawa, but I had never taken the time to write anything about them. My OTP has been monopolising all my time and inspiration 😅… So I’ve finally decided to gather my HCs.

These photos are from Pinterest.

🌸 How They Met (in Japan)

At the time, Matilda Weasley was a young, daring curse-breaker, sent to the port of Yokohama to lift the complex enchantments on a ship suspected of concealing a dangerous artefact stolen from the British Ministry of Magic.

Chiyo Kogawa, meanwhile, was working for the Japanese Ministry of Magic, having given up a promising career as a Quidditch player after the dishonourable cheating of her friend during selection trials. She was tasked with supervising and guiding the foreign curse-breaker.

Chiyo was initially wary of the bold, red-haired witch, yet she soon found herself fascinated in spite of herself by Matilda’s keen mind and unconventional methods of solving ancient riddles. ✨

As for Matilda, she felt an immediate respect for Chiyo’s discipline, sensing that her sense of duty was not merely the product of her upbringing, but was driven by a desire for reparation, a need to reclaim her honour.

Between them, the chemistry was instantaneous. They spent a week suspended in time, immersed in investigations, impromptu duels, baths in the hot springs , and stolen nights in inns.

But once the artefact was recovered, duty caught up with them. Matilda was ordered to return to Europe. Chiyo could not abandon her responsibilities. They parted with heavy hearts, each carrying the memory of their shared interlude. 💔

🍂 The Passing Years

Matilda continued her career in England. She married a man who left her a few years later, claiming he could not stay with a woman who was barren. She was scarcely affected by the separation, which she welcomed as a liberation ✨, and took back her maiden name before becoming a professor at Hogwarts. Yet she often found herself thinking of Chiyo, a sad smile on her lips.

When it came time to recruit a new flying instructor, Matilda spontaneously suggested Chiyo Kogawa’s name. Officially, she recommended her for her unparalleled skills. In truth, she would not admit to anyone – not even to herself! – that she was hoping to see her again.

For her part, Chiyo claimed she accepted the post because it allowed her to reconnect with Quidditch, her great passion. But deep down, it was not the sport that brought her back to England. It was Matilda. 💖

🍁 Their Dynamic at Hogwarts

Their reunion was tinged with hesitation. The years had passed, they had changed, and at first they merely watched each other from a distance. Matilda was more composed than she had once been, though an intense fire still burned in her gaze 🔥. Chiyo had grown warmer, less rigid.In the beginning, they maintained a strictly professional distance.

Chiyo took to flying alone in the evenings, high above the Black Lake, hoping Matilda might come to join her. Matilda preferred to admire her in secret from her window. She would tell herself that it was the most beautiful thing she had ever seen in the sky – and she had once witnessed the courtship display of an Antipodean Opaleye 🐉.

At times, she also found excuses to walk out onto the training grounds, ostensibly to check on student safety or to ensure that the new professor was not suffering from homesickness and was settling in well.

When they finally found themselves alone together, the closeness that had once bound them resurfaced as though it had never left. ✨ But this time, they chose to take things slowly. They had learnt that lasting love must be nurtured through constancy and patience.

They would sometimes meet late at night to share tea 🍵 and mochis Chiyo had specially sent over from Japan, or to fall asleep beside each other.

They were happy and felt no urgency to define what they were to one another. Nor did they feel any need to speak of it to anyone else.

Perhaps that is what true love is: simply rejoicing in the fact of existing together. 🌸

been playing Hogwarts legacy a lot since summer started so here's my precious MC nyehehehe

I'm thinking on maybe writing a fanfic because the amount of lore I have built on this girl is crazy but I'm not too confident on my writing skills yet UnU

[libellule-ao3]

In the shadow of the study (Part 3) Part 1 | Part 2

HELLOOO I'M BACK!!!!!

I've finally took the Japanese Proficiency Exam last week and now I'm finally free to draw again!!! 🥹🥹 Ohh I missed Tumblr and I missed you guys ~~~

I was supposed to upload part 2 first buttttttttttt I missed working with watercolor and it is just halfway done so it will be posted later hehe ~~

Also, I'm thinking of opening commissions (well, if..anyone is interested?)

No one asked but here's a pic of my cat invading my drawing space 🤣🤣

[libellule-ao3]

As a fic writer, i need every reader to know that:

I don’t care if your comment is coherent. I know what you mean and i love you

I don’t care if you ramble. I read every word and i love you

I don’t care if you leave a comment on a fic from four years ago or leave comments/kudos on like ten of my fics in one go. This isn’t IG, pls stalk my AO3. I love you

I don’t care if you mention the same thing in your comment that four other people have already mentioned. It’s actually really useful to know what resonated with people and I love everyone who takes the time to tell me they liked a particular turn of phrase

I don’t mind if your comment is super long or just a couple of sentences, i love them all

I love you

I've been to Sharp's room (again), and something caught my attention. Small scratches can be found on the floor in regular intervals. I marked them because they can be easily missed:

Those scratches can be found both in his living room and in his bedroom, however not in the hallway in front of his room, nor in his secret drawing room.

So, I've been wondering if these scratches might be from his cane. What speaks in favour of this are the regular intervals between the marks, and also that they can't be found in his drawing room because that's the way he has to enter:

He probably only uses his cane when there's no other way, as we all know, he's a very proud man who won't admit any weakness, or rely on any help, which leads me to another conclusion/question, related to the location of his room.

The faculty tower can be reached via the floo network. However, his room is on the second floor and can only be accessed by taking the stairs. He obviously started teaching at Hogwarts shortly after his injury, which probably was way worse back then. Why not give him a room on the ground floor? In a world of magic, it would have been easy to swap rooms with another teacher.

My thesis is that he probably even asked for this particular room because it's the only one with no next-door neighbours, and no one living beneath, as seen in this picture:

My idea is that he knew he would have to use his cane or even his wheelchair, and he still does. That's why they can still be found in his room. However, he doesn't want anybody to know. If he uses his cane often enough to leave marks on the floor, neighbours next door or beneath would probably hear it, so he made sure to get a room without that risk, even if it means worse accessibility.

saw an elderly woman walking around with a tote bag whose design were the four AO3 fic category squares and she very excitedly asked if i was a reader or a writer bcs nobody else at the con had recognized it, and after telling her that i've been writing fic since fanfic.net, she solemnly nodded and explained that she'd been reading fic since "the days of personal websites" but that she only started writing fanfic when she was 47 and oh my god when i tell you that i genuinely teared up on the spot!!!!! like!!! HELL YEAH???? LITERALLY NEVER TOO OLD TO START WRITING. NEVER TOO OLD TO WRITE AND SHARE YOUR FIC.

her enthusiastic "i'm a very nice and bubbly person, i swear! but i love writing angst and major character death :)" nearly took me the fuck out.

icon. legend. diva. i wish her nothing but a kajillion million comments and kudos. i hope her fic updates crash AO3. i hope she knows i'm promoting her to my personal patron saint of AO3.

I’m such a sucker for scenes where the usually confident, flirty guy turns bright red when his partner unexpectedly makes the first move.

✨ I already posted this on my main blog, but just a heads-up: I’m planning to take a break from creating new artwork in July. Instead, I’ll be focusing on organizing my references and other things! 📚✨

The first thing I started on was making reference materials for Ominis. I wanted photos of the back of his head, so I ended up making them while I was at it. 😎☀️ Since we don’t get many chances to go out with him under natural sunlight without using a companion mod, I’m happy I could take these shots! Most of the time during quests, he’s in dimly lit places like Slytherin's study or underground crypts, so it’s been tricky to get good lighting.

As for low-angle shots, I didn’t include those yet—I’m planning to grab them from other screenshots as needed. Maybe I’ll upload a version with those added sometime! 📷💫

New Chapter!

7/ Thorns Entwined : Sebastian’s screams haunt those who still love him... While Ominis faces the trial, Evelyne wrestles with a guilt too heavy to bear.

Chapter excerpt:

The months spent in decay have eaten away at Sebastian Sallow like gangrene devours flesh. Azkaban has stolen the youthful sweetness of his freckled features, carving harsh angles into his pale skin.

His eyes, once bright with intelligence and insolent pride, have become two bottomless pits, imbued with an intensity that only despair can confer.

Unlike Ominis, whose classical allure seems born to appear on fashion plates, Sebastian has never conformed to the canons of beauty.

However, he has always possessed a raw charm, a fiery passion that commands attention and easily sets hearts aflame. But this flamboyant ardour has been extinguished under the grime of the prison uniform, that coarse and dishonourable canvas, streaked with bars that are barely discernible beneath the filth.

Evelyne has never seen a phoenix on the brink of death, but she knows with visceral certainty that it must resemble this emaciated, disembodied figure behind bars: a devastated being, consumed by his own flames, almost annihilated...

But also ready to rise from the ashes at the first breath of mercy.

SCREAMING. CRYING. THROWING UP.

The wonderful, extravagant and most beautiful human on the planet, @alliezarin drew a very special scene for me from my fanfiction, Annihilation.

If it isn't the most obvious thing in the world - this is my rewrite of the Confringo quest. For reasons I will not spoil, Aster needs help learning some spells and Sebastian took a very hands on approach to help her. The only thing - and something we all know very well - is that Confringo gets a little too hot. Hot enough, that it could cause someone to become so hot & bothered, that it starts fucking with their head~ 🙂‍↕️

I was going to post a snippet of the scene this is from, but it's unedited and I'm too drunk to edit it! 🤭 So, this is all you're getting!!

Instead, have some close HD ups of this GORGEOUS FUCKING PIECE THAT I CANT BELIEVE IS MINE-!

OKAY, BYEEEEE~ 🤗

[libellule-ao3]

I loved exploring the different facets of the Zburătorul myth through our discussions and the images you shared, which really sparked my imagination.

Even though the F!MC isn’t named (to reinforce Ominis’s perspective of dehumanising her), I was thinking of Annariel throughout the process, hence the presence of a few Easter eggs!😉💕

Thank you for trusting me to write this OS!🫶✨️💕

This is how I vision Night Visitor by @libellule-ao3 https://archiveofourown.org/works/66701440

I know there is no female name specified but when me and libe talked (a lot about this fic) I showed her these picture just to guide her in my toughts of this myth.

The Man Who Worships Her Belly Even More🤰

Even after becoming the perfect, devoted father, Sebastian still having a breeding kink is just the best thing ever.
