there's a part in Dune where it talks about how quickly Paul Atreides learned and how intelligent he was etc, and it goes something like "he simply trusted that he could learn. it was shocking to him how many people believe themselves incapable of learning, or believed learning itself to be difficult" and boy, am i glad i read that as young as i did. it really helped me not become a helpless baby like some people i see posting out here in front of god and everybody

Many ages ago Death was defeated and sealed. Immortality is the norm, but the loss of death has lead to a society of ultralites that rule over never dying slaves. As Death’s first reaper after the unsealing, you are here to remind them why Death exists… and why your master should be feared.

The annoying thing about Sirius Black was that he wasn’t just good at things: He always had to be the best. This obnoxious perfection extended, it turned out, to the protective charms he’d placed on the remaining half of his two-way mirrors. This was perhaps effective in preventing Snivellus from snooping on them, but it was proving extremely irritating for Peter, who had been working for weeks and hadn’t yet cracked the spells.

At first he’d thought it wouldn’t be a big deal if he couldn’t get all the protective magic scrubbed off, but it turned out tracking spells were extremely sensitive to magic, and any deviation from the original charming messed the whole thing up. It occurred to him with a sort of heavy sinking in his gut that this meant any tinkering Snape might’ve done could derail his whole plan and put Peter firmly back at square one…but he wasn’t ready to give up yet.

The frustrating thing was that he knew if just asked his friends for help, they’d be able to fix it in a moment — but he was determined to do this on his own. To prove that he could do this on his own, to finally show them up just once…so he’d squirreled away for the evening in the dormitory while the other boys remained downstairs, spending his evening in solitude, fiddling with charm-breakers and other complex spells that made his head hurt.

After about an hour of this, Peter actually felt as though he’d made some progress. None of his revealing spells showed any traces of magical barriers…but then he was faced with a new complication: How would he know if he’d got it right, if the connection between the two mirrors was indeed fully cleared again?

He stared into the small, square mirror, his scowl reflected back to him as he thought. What harm could it do, really? Just for a moment…?

My deepest darkest fantasy is that I collapse on the street and I am rushed to the hospital. They perform a bunch of tests and find out I am severely deficient in some kind of vitamin. Then I start taking the vitamin and I become the happiest cleverest person alive because all my problems were caused by this one deficiency

This scene was so domestic, do you see how comfortable they both are? Crowley is literally leaning into aziraphale

Not to mention the entire context of the scene they’re greeting a guest together because it’s their home

idk I just think if you look at the only canon couple in a fandom and have to stretch your mind to see them as anything other than platonic then you probably aren't actually reading about the characters in that fandom.

Fleamont:

My dear Child, we are so happy to welcome you among us.

We had always wanted a large family. We are blessed, thanks to James, today we have a daughter to cherish.

And between us, you're far too good for this rascal!

At some point, "ignore canon! Anything you want can be considered canon!" becomes you no longer liking the series or characters you claim to like and instead, creating your OCs and giving them a canon name because clout.
