hi I just wanted to say that I hope you are doing well! I'm guessing you have been very busy but if you are thinking about any writing or headcanons (especially Hamlet themed 🙂) I would love to hear! But if not I just send good wishes and hope 2022 is treating you well! 🎭❤️
Ahh, this is such a lovely message! I have been very busy with work at the moment (even working on a Potter themed musical in the past few weeks!) so I haven't had any time for fandom things. I really want to go back and finish the rest of here and where you are, as well, but I just don't have any spare time 😭 Even this week where I'm less busy, I think I'm still going to use that time to catch up on invoices and paperwork and start preparing for my next production.
Hopefully one day I'll find time to post things again - but in the meantime, I hope you're having a lovely week and that 2022 is treating you well! 💙💙💙

would you ever consider finishing 'here and where you are'? I found the premise amazing, plus I'm a sucker for the ''one runs away and the other finds them trope.'' combined with how beautifully written the fic was, i can't wait to see how it ends. of course, it's your choice, and I don't mean to impose any pressure on you.
Yes, I absolutely intend to finish it! I've written about half of the second chapter already, I just haven't had time to work on the rest. My life has been extremely hectic since I posted the first chapter, and it's only gotten busier in the past few months - and add to that a lot of health issues as well, it's just - ya know.
But if you subscribe to the fic, you'll get an email when I post chapter two! Hopefully it'll be soon - I should have a little bit more free time after next week.
(Also thank you so much for reading the fic, and for this lovely message 🥺 When you haven't posted in a while, it's easy to forget your writing is out there and still being read, so it means a lot when people leave comments or feedback like this 💙)

I might re-list all my embroidery and art and a couple of other things on etsy with profits going towards minus18 or another similar charity, if anyone is interested? I'll also look at cheaper options for postage, I know it was a bit too expensive last time.

Where has the “Albus is selfish” trope come from? I’ve never seen anyone say that before, usually it goes hand in hand with someone saying “Albus can be selfish but it’s part of his character development”. I’m just a bit confused on where the inferences that he’s selfish the entirety of the show has come from?
I’m not asking to be rude, I just haven’t seen much about it aside from in your posts!
Oh, no, that's okay! You’re not being rude at all, and tbh a lot of the discussions about Albus being selfish aren’t that easy to find? It's mostly been in conversations my friends and I have had with other people, or it's been in replies to things we've posted, or more often than not it's been on Twitter? So there isn't a lot of it on Tumblr - and the stuff that is on Tumblr has usually been in those conversations or it's been in replies to posts where we've talked about Albus. 
So it’s not very easy to find, but those feelings are out there and it’s been mentioned often enough that it’s grabbed our attention. Particularly when it's worded in a way that isn't open for discussion - that calls Albus a "selfish dickhead" and then leaves it at that. No room for development, no room for the very real flaws and struggles of being a severely bullied fourteen year old with an extremely difficult relationship with his dad. When I think about this idea that Albus won't learn from his mistakes - this idea that he is and always will be selfish or angry or both - I think of this quote from The Good Place:
Tumblr media
And I think about the last scene in the graveyard where Harry, in his own way, is trying to apologise for what he said to Albus. He says he'll try and be a better dad. And Albus - fourteen years old, having just seen a fellow student die as an indirect result of his actions - looks at his dad and says, "I'll try and be a better son." And my heart breaks. Because he shouldn't feel the need to say that. He shouldn't feel the need to apologise for who he is - to explain himself, to promise to "fix" himself. He's a child. He will carry this guilt for the rest of his life and anyone who believes that he won't, clearly wasn't listening to him owning up to his mistakes and telling everyone who will listen that this is all his fault. Albus is a boy in pain and when we were standing outside the Princess, listening to Eva say that they hoped he would still be held and cared for even after she left the show? I felt that. Because I hope Albus is held and cared for, too.
It's fine if people feel differently about Albus - I went on in a recent ask about how we all see something different in the things we read and watch. And that's particularly true with theatre! But I just happen to disagree with this opinion on Albus.
ask me questions about year two, year three, and other things!

Albus' character is grossly misunderstood at times. Can he be selfish? Yes but that can be said about 100% of the other characters as well, no one is 100% pure selfless but Albus is a good kid, with a good heart who just wants to prove his worth. He's human that's what he is and he's great.
We are getting some excellent takes here at lumoshyperion dot tumblr dot com today omfg 👏👏👏
Can Albus make bad decisions, that he doesn't fully think through and that put both himself and his best friend in danger? Yes. Are those decisions partially fueled by a desire to prove himself and to step out of his dad's shadow? Yes. Does that make him a bad person? No!! It makes him a fourteen year old child who has had to grow up under the shadow of not only Harry Potter, but the rest of his family of over achieving Gryffindors and literal heroes of the Wizarding World. I'd love to see anyone else try and be a well adjusted kid in that situation. 
(And that’s not even going into how much trauma Harry is still dealing with, which affects his decision making and approach as a parent, and which Albus sees right through!! because he’s a smart, insightful kid, and I think that’s something Harry doesn’t know what to do with, but we’ll talk about father-son relationships another time lmaooooo)
Albus is just a child who overhears someone grieving their son, begging to have that son back, and decides to do something about it. "He lied to an old man who just wanted his son back - who just loved his son. And he lied because he didn't care, because he doesn't care." People assume that his decision to save Cedric is wholly based on a desire to prove himself and to do better than his father, but it's so much more complicated than that! It's about feeling that his dad doesn't love him the way Amos loves Cedric! It's about knowing that and still wanting to do everything he can to give Amos his son back! Because just because he doesn't feel that love, doesn't mean that Cedric shouldn't!! It's ABOUT THE NUANCE!! 👏👏👏
ALBUS IS A GOOD KID WITH A KIND HEART AND I WILL DIE ON THIS HILL!!!
ask me questions about year two, year three, and other things!

I'm tentatively dipping my toes back into writing for this fandom - I finally closed the show that made me want to write the Hamlet AU, and that made me nostalgic about it. plus I miss writing "here and where you are" and "sky full of song" and ALSO all my drastoria wips 🥺

Idk how people justify their actions when they send anon hate and relentlessly stalk the blogs of people they don't like.
If you hate someone this much, just leave??? block their account so you don't have to see it???? or is this too mature for you

Albus and his cat Silvia
Silvia, or Sylvie for short, was a peace offering from his parents(dad) for his 17th birthday when she was just a kitten. She marks a time for new responsibility and maturity for him. She’s a lot like Albus personality wise, and rarely lets people touch her and often fights the other cats or animals in the castle. The only people besides Albus that she lets pet her whenever is Scorpius and Lily. She’ll let James pet her too but she acts as if it’s on accident and will quickly put him in his place if he acknowledges that she let him. Yes, she will wack the shit out of him or anyone who tries to get close if she’s not in the mood. She’s very sneaky and protective but loves Albus (and Scorpius) fiercely.

I've mostly been writing an Owl House fic and two Legend of Zelda fics at the moment, but I thought I'd share some excerpts from my Cursed Child wips because see!!! I haven't stopped caring about wizard hates dad!!
The next morning, Scorpius woke early and watched as daylight slowly filled his room. He luxuriated in a half asleep state, almost convinced the night before was a dream and the hoodie he wore was only wishful thinking. But he could still feel the ghost of Albus’s hand guiding his across the canvas, and the whisper of his breath on the back of his neck.
Underneath the sheets, Scorpius traced the arch of his ankle with the soft curve of his heel, and thought about all the times Albus had crawled into his bed in the middle of the night at Hogwarts. They’d pull the blanket over their heads and talk, for hours and hours, stifling giggles and kicking each other, teasingly. He reached across the bed and brushed a hand over the other pillow. It was cold.
With a sigh, he crawled out of bed and pattered over to the window. He pulled the lace curtains aside and let them fall on his back as he leaned against the glass and stared down at the garden. There was a boy in an oversized jumper with a shock of black hair and a large backpack, standing at the gate and staring up at the cottage. It was Albus.
That's from chapter two of here and where you are. And this is a really short piece of sky full of song, which is a Weathering With You AU that I've just started. I can't share much else from it, since it's so new and most of the scenes I've written are from the end of the fic, but I'm very excited about it 👀 if you have any questions about either fic, or any general writing questions, let me know!
He looked up and smiled at him, his grey eyes glistening with tears. Then, he pulled back his sleeve and held out his arm. At first, Albus thought it was just a bruise or a trick of the light. It was like glass - but filled with water that shimmered and danced by the flames of the fireplace. His arm was almost completely translucent.

wow, this should go without saying, but don't stalk people's accounts and send them nasty anons???? If you're this pressed by someone and their posts, then why are you still following them and being this nasty in their inbox?????
get a life. it's a fucking pandemic and you sending threats to random people on the internet is not the "brave" and "cool" thing you seem to think it is. grow up and move on.

I swear I do plan on finishing the next chapter of here and where you are - and I do have other fics in the works that are on their way as well - I just... keep picking up new wips and getting distracted. like a kid at a candy store.
