BRO !!!!! IDK why this is so blurry erghdv i’m over it but let’s get into it hello!!!! i’d like hte mclaggen family and i’ll do this in pointform ok bye ( also those w a lil name + age tag are the ones taken bye )

there are a total of twelve, yes twelve mclaggens. the six out of the seven pictured above share one mother, who died when the youngest of the kids were three. the one older than violet is a cousin they were forced to take in at a young age. the five not pictured are hogwarts age and younger, come from a second wife. no division tho they’re all bros. 

papa mclaggen is really high up in the ministry. idk what he’s doing so if one of y’all wanna figure that out and lmk. but there more or less all ministry oriented, a politically well revered family and have been for decades. 

their fathers fathers fathers fathers etc kind of deal. think of it like the kennedy’s with the dysfunction of the roy family from succession. 

the vibe is “dark academia” and “we don’t need to be pureblood to be better than u bc our dick can fight god himself”

because there’s a lot of them they don’t all see each other often, but there’s annual family gatherings four times a year and it’s absolutely scandalous if anyone backs out for any reason.

angus is estranged from his wife but he’s got a kid ( cormac jr, he lost a bet, boom boom pow ). cormac’s married. in laws come to family gatherings. it’s a WHOLE thing.

the youngest two are twins and they’re ANNOYING and tag team against the rest of the family. 

they’re all expected to act a certain way but honestly … i love stupid families 

they’re really judgemental but act like they’re not but they can communicate with each other with side eyes like i cannot believe he’s gonna show up to OUR house wearing that

violet and the only other girl in the group are BEEFING yo, in alex’s words “a horrible sister rivalry with a stuck up sister for vi to ruthlessly mock”

all very close but the house was definitely chaotic growing up so a sense of independence is very much phew wanted and needed 

this vibe

NOVIA ALVAREZ // should i want or should i need , should i desire or should i burn ?

OH AND NOW WE WANT

“you’re staring again, nove.”

her head whips around, the smug, too knowing, smirk on her friends lips enough to bring a blush to her cheeks. “no, i -”

“were staring.”

she couldn’t deny it – she was staring.

but was it her fault that the other woman was so beautiful? that her eyes were piercing, that she couldn’t help but wonder if her skin was as smooth as it looked? could she be blamed for not wanting to miss the moment where those lips would form a smile?

an expression she already knew was breathtaking before having witnessed it (everything about her was – how unfair, how cruel).

BUT WE ALSO MUST NEED

“you should -”

“i should what?”

it was an argument that the siblings had, had before. a back and forth that had no end, that never made a difference in the grand scheme of things – novia was too stubborn for that.

too scared for it.

open up, let someone in, be honest.

how could such a practiced liar be honest?

how could a monster be honest?

no, it was better to live the lie, to wear a mask. to pretend. better, safer, easier. the coward’s way out.

but she was a coward, wasn’t she?

yes.

There’s a room where the light won’t find you,              holding hands while the walls come tumbling down                    

                         when they do, I’ll be right behind you
