A small funny starprince headcannon

I headcannon that the Prince family were known for having attack dogs and due to that they had a natural way of calming and guiding dogs of any kind so when Severus had jokingly said сидеть (sit) Sirius literally just sat down so quickly without a second damn thought😭 and it was just a period of silence as Severus looks at Sirius with a blank face but his eyes show a hint of amusement as he says

"Did you just seriously follow a dog command?"

And Sirius in his mind is like: I don't fucking know russian I only know french- why the hell did I follow that order? WHY DID I SIT DOWN SO FAST?!?!

◇Jegulus ft. Baby Harry◇

~°~°~°~°~°~

James was starting to get scared of the things Regulus was teaching their child. Not all of it was bad, of course not, Regulus was always so careful and doting to Harry it never failed to make James melt in absolute love and devotion for his husband, but this particular thing...

It happened once again while James was in the bathroom. He just finished washing his teeth, Harry perked at his left side with a big smile on his face as he watched James make funny faces in the mirror, when Regulus came inside almost running

"Jamie, think fast, pretend I'm another man" Regulus said quickly before latching on his neck like a monkey and start peppering kisses on his neck and face.

Admittedly, the sudden display of affection left him a bit dazed, so dazed in fact, that James completely forgot Regulus words and just smiled stupidly while he accepted the kisses from his husband while his free hand was making way to Regulus' waist.

However, before his hand could find it's wished destination, Regulus abruptly left James side with a loud and exaggerated gasp.

"Woww Potter, is that how it is now?" Regulus asked, fake astonishment dripping from every syllable he said. "I see. Harry, Dracarys!" Regulus yelled out.

Here comes James concern on what Regulus teach their child, because even if they both love House of the Dragon, he never thought Regulus would actually teach their child how to attack on command.

Before he realized it, Harry was biting his left cheek while giggling, clearly entertained about the whole situation, and James would actually find the scene quite endearing if their child wasn't chewing his cheek off.

"AH! OH MY GOD, REGULUS, STOP TELLING HIM TO ATTACK!" James pleaded when he finally separated his flesh from Harry's tiny tooth. Regulus only scrunched his nose with a big smile on his face while he cooed at Harry in approval, which didn't bode well for the future.

Still, he loved to see this mischievous side of his husband, even if it was pretty unconventional. The smile and twinkle in Regulus' eyes was always worth it.

"Dracarys Harry!" Regulus shouted out once again, laughter dripping from his voice, and Harry went on attack mode once again, making James scream in a mixture of surprise and fear for his skin.

Yeah, they are definitely banning House of Dragons in the house from now on.

The clones to Star Wars fans are what the Marauders are to Harry Potter fans. Nobody knows shit about them except like 6 minutes/pages of important lore. Everything else are just widely accepted headcannons.

The Wand That Yielded to Grief: A Snape Wand Theory

Darling, let’s talk wandlore—not the polished kind with Phoenix feather packaging and eager eleven-year-olds. No, no. We’re diving into Severus Snape’s wand. And the story? It's neither charming nor convenient. It’s charred.

Let’s begin with what little we do know.

The Canonical Silence

Official sources—wand replicas, Wizarding World merch, and the occasional lore snippet—suggest:

Wood: Ebony

Length: ~13.25 inches

Core: ?

That’s right, love. The core has never been confirmed. J.K. Rowling left it blank, the movies skipped it, and the books said nothing. Silence. Total silence. Which, frankly, is suspiciously on brand for Severus Snape.

Ebony, for the record, is a wand wood known for loyalty, strength, and an affinity for those who live by their own rules—individuals who walk away from the crowd without looking back. Sound familiar? Oh, absolutely.

But let’s go deeper.

⸻

Was That Wand Always His?

Remember the infamous scene—Snape hanging upside down, humiliated by the Marauders? The Severus in that memory didn’t fight back. Not with magic. He thrashed, cursed, but did not cast. Some fans assumed cowardice. But darling... I can’t help wondering if it might have been something else.

What if the wand in his hand wasn’t truly his at the time?

Perhaps it was a borrowed wand. Possibly his mother’s. A hand-me-down, serviceable but stubborn. It could cast spells, yes—but not instinctively. Not like a wand that had chosen its master in a moment of absolute clarity.

At fifteen, Snape was still divided. One part aching for Lily. Another drawn to the shadows of power. His identity was not yet forged, his inner world fractured. And from what we understand of wandlore, no wand of serious character would yield fully to a master it couldn’t read with certainty.

So when James struck without warning—Levicorpused him into the air—there was no duel. Only shock. Scramble. Exposure. And possibly... a wand that didn’t respond.

It’s just a thought, of course. But perhaps that wand wasn’t his. Not yet.

⸻

The Turning Point: The Half-Blood Prince

When did that change? Oh darling. The moment ink hit parchment and a boy wrote:

"This book is the property of the Half-Blood Prince."

That was it. That was the baptism. He hadn’t yet started anything with anyone—no romance, no allegiance. Perhaps Lily was already slipping away, and maybe, just maybe, resentment had started to take root. It might’ve been the first time he truly felt seen within Slytherin—not for being clever or strange, but for doing something that others there deemed right. If there was a turning, it wasn't toward someone. It was away. Away from the pain, the disappointment, the fruitless effort. Maybe that’s when power began to shimmer—not as a prize, but as the only thing that might still answer back.

From that moment on, his mind sharpened. Cunning replaced confusion. The grief hadn’t come yet, but the isolation had—and he began to wield it like a weapon. That’s when he would’ve acquired the wand we now associate with him:

Ebony wood

Inflexible

Cold to the touch, but alive in the hand of someone who never asked to be warm again

⸻

Post-Lily: The Emotions That Forged Obedience

Now, fast-forward. Lily is dead. And Snape is no longer fractured. He is hollowed. The core that once wavered with longing is now filled with singular, punishing clarity. Let’s break it down:

1. Grief (but not the weeping kind) This is grief weaponised—steady, silent, permanent. He does not mourn. He functions. Every breath is penance.

2. Resentment Towards himself, Dumbledore, James, the world. And perhaps—even Lily. Not out of hatred, but from a wound so deep it blurred blame and pain. For choosing James. For becoming unreachable. For dying before he could make anything right. He might not have resented her directly—but in a heart that no longer knew how to grieve cleanly, every loss left behind a trace of bitterness.

3. Control Emotion stripped to its most minimalist form. No outbursts. No chaos. Just tight, merciless control.

4. Duty The unasked-for vow. The boy lives, so the man must serve. Not because he wants to. But because he no longer permits himself not to.

5. Emptiness The absence of desire. Nothing left to want. Only actions left to take. He becomes function incarnate.

And the wand? Oh, it submits.

Because by now, Snape’s emotional register is so sharpened, so pared down, that there is no room left to resist him.

He doesn’t ask the wand to obey. He tells it—and it does.

Because if it didn’t? The wand itself might’ve felt it—some deep, ancient knowing—that failure to cooperate wouldn’t lead to a scolding, but a fate worse than irrelevance. Not snapped in punishment, but surrendered to fire, repurposed as kindling for something colder. That’s the level we’re at.

⸻

Final Word: The Wand That Yielded

Snape didn’t earn his wand’s loyalty through brilliance. He bled it out of himself.

"He didn’t tame his wand with greatness. He subdued it with grief."

Darling, if I were that wand and I so much as twitched against his will, I’d snap myself in half out of shame.

Now pour the tea, snap the fan, and tell me I’m wrong. I won’t argue—just raise a brow, maybe. But deep down, we both know how this ends, don’t we?

Your Wish, My Command Snippet

And we're back with another snippet from my Hinny adopts Tom WIP! Tom is a second-year and a Gryffindor, and Harry is the DADA professor. 😌💕

Tom abhors her. He thinks Harry hates her, too, but that he doesn't want to admit it. They married young, and whereas Harry went to work for the Ministry for some time as an Auror, Ginevra joined the Holyhead Harpies. Even years later, when they came to adopt Tom, they rarely saw one another. Ginevra had moved onto coaching the Harpies. Tom didn't mind. By that point, Harry had retired from the Auror Department to homeschool Tom. He dedicated his life to Tom, to the child he had always wanted. And though Tom did not know it at the time, Harry is the father he has always wanted, the… Well, he's not certain of what the words for it are, but lately when he looks at Harry… In any event, they have the holiday to themselves again this year, and it means that Tom can curl up in his father's lap in his chambers. "Aren't you getting a bit old for this?" Harry asks him, his chin resting comfortably atop Tom's head. "No," Tom says. If anything, he fits better on Harry's lap than he ever has before. He is the perfect size for Harry to squeeze him close and nuzzle his cheek against Tom's curls. "I love you very much," Harry whispers. Tom feels warm all over. Of course, his Harry loves him. That doesn't make it any less satisfying to hear.

[cocoavanille]

Drarry fantasy arranged marriage AU, but they don't hate each other from the start, just cautious and careful to not compromise their sides. They are the same age, have no reason to despise each other from what they've heard but are well aware of one another's strength and deeds.

Harry may be bold and brave, full of desire to prove himself but he's not stupid and would not piss off one of the most respected young mages of the continent for no reason. Draco is a huge supporter of their magical academy's methods and an aristocrat but he respects being smart with other resources and being able to stand your ground politics wise and in battle – Harry is known to manage both quite well.

Draco's magic reminds Harry of wind and lullabies – precise, a little cold, swift yet gentle, when there's no harm intended. Harry's tactics seem to be harsh on the exterior but are usually quite calculated if you see how things unfold. He doesn't resort to unnecessary violence, same as Draco, who learns to think before disagree, but still tells Harry he's too impulsive sometimes. Which is true about both of them and Harry loves to point it out.

Harry remembers he's just nineteen when they start interacting. That he's young, allowed to have fun, make silly jokes and ditch responsibilities once in a while to enjoy his time. Sneaking through the garden with his fiancée that is or meeting the dawn on the beach. Draco makes him feel alive again, like the weight of his country gets lifted from his shoulders for a while. Draco is ridiculous to be honest but he likes it so, so much about him, along with his gorgeous visuals and the way he moves. It's not the pretty face, it's how he manages to keep it still while being met with cruelty. It's not the power he commands but how intune with magic he is. It's not the lines of his body but the strength and agility. It's not the smile – it's the sincerity in it's absence.

Harry looks towards the sea. There's three days before the wedding, their mothers are incredibly agitated and exhausted from preparations while they are here. On the wall of the castle looking in the distance. Words are not enough to convey everything he wants to say. Draco sighs for the first time they've known eachother: quietly, a little shaky.

– Do you want it? I can make a scene and spare you from my company.

Harry's heart breaks a little. He touches his shoulder with a concerned look.

– Why would you think that? You're not so bad. At least as far as young royalty usually goes, I mean. Saw some real assholes in my lifetime.

Draco laughs and slightly pinches his arm. Harry smiles – that's a lot better.

– It's just we'll be bound by magic, not only vows. Most people dream of marriage with someone they at least like. I know you're doing it for the political gain and I don't have a problem with that but... I don't expect you to be kind to me, Harry. Just not cruel.

– If I'm ever outright cruel to you, you have my permission to slap me with a hurricane to the face.

– Deal. And vice versa, just switch the air magic to something from your arsenal.

The wedding is a perfect time to send assassins. Blacks striking an alliance with the Potters is furious business for those who wanted the consort place for their heirs and a couple of other parties. Harry hates that he can't fully relax and enjoy Draco in his beautiful gown. His soon-to-be husband looks ethereal, elegant, almost too good to be his. But he will be, he'll make sure of it. Draco stares at him for way longer than he should.

– What? Do I look stupid in this thing? Told mother we need another cloak-

Draco kisses the edge of his lips softly, so gentle and a little afraid.

– You're stunning, Harry.

He can't help but grin.

– What was that again?

– You heard me just fine, I won't repeat myself for your amusement.

Draco rolls his eyes in annoyance but he sees him blush. Adorable.

Then it hits him. He kissed him! And they will have to do it properly in half an hour, in front of other people... This feels so wrong. It's supposed to be their moment.

– Can you stand still for a second?

Draco stops nervously picking at his long braid and looks at him. So tense, that won't do. He's nervous too but not to the same extent.

Harry caresses his cheek softly, checks in with grey sharp eyes and presses his lips against his, giving them both enough time to get used to the feeling before Draco draws him closer by the neck. This went a lot less awkward than he expected.

– Look at that, you do like me.

– I never stated the opposite.

Harry decides to stop the teasing here: wedding day is enough of a stress for anyone. Even people like them, who's seen battle. As Remus likes to say, matters of the heart always hit you with brutal force you won't expect.

If there is any proof of sincere intentions he needed, he got it. The south sent blood mages, the wedding was crashed right after the ritual was done. A little late for the party. Narcissa took all the guests including his mother under her protection charms that happened to withstand even mind control spells, so them, Draco's uncle and the guards could handle the fight without distractions. One of the mages was too speedy and good with daggers. He would've been dead if not for the sudden wind that put a sword right through the attacker's chest. He stepped away, the man fell. Draco stood on the other side of the room with one of the blood mages at his feet. Furious, cold, dangerous but sane. "Oh", Harry thought to himself, "maybe I won't have to be as carful around him as I thought". The fight soon ends with their victory, Narcissa lowers the barriers.

– Not bad, young Prince. Much better at this than your father was in his younger days.

Regulus Black says, returning him his weapon that was tossed to the side. He nods in gratitude and is about to ask everything at once when Regulus turns to Draco.

– Feeling alright?

– Hate fighting in closed spaces.

Harry just now notices a deep wound on his shoulder he's slowly closing with magic.

– If you have enough energy to be mad, you'll live. Cissa, I'll clear it all up and we'll go on with the dinner? Let's skip the gift giving, it's been a long evening.

– Precisely, I think we all need a break, dear cousin.

Thankfully the banquet area is on another floor where nothing has happened. Draco manages to fix their attire with magic and insists on him having his leg fixed with some weird smelling balm that works wonders in under five minutes.

– Told you it's going to heal it fast.

– How's your shoulder?

– Hurts, but will be fine in two to five days. I closed the wound but the blood loss makes me dizzy still.

Draco takes the potion Regulus brought and makes a funny face.

– Fucking hazeflowers, hate the taste...

Harry sniffs and almost looses his senses. That must be disgusting.

– That's the first time I heard you swear and you know what? Figures.

They make everyone forget a bit of the horrors with their dance and then, after the official part is done, hide away in the west wing with some food and wine.

Harry looks at the stars with many unanswered questions in his heart but the only one that matters now is:

– Why did you do it?

– Because I don't want you dead? Becoming a husband and a widower on the same day is something I would like to avoid.

– The gossip would be mad, you're right.

– Idiot.

Says Draco with no real bite and lays his head on the back of the sofa, closing his eyes. Harry gets the emerald ribbon out of his hair, rubs it between his fingers. Lingering scent of sage, honey and sea salt.

– I'm glad it's you. I wouldn't want to marry anyone else.

– That's a good start.

Draco smiles, looking at him and Harry feels it in his heart – they will be fine. The circumstances around them may change, but they will be there for eachother.

– Do you want to see our main bathing zone? Bet it will surprise you.

Draco asks with a hint of playfulness and he gives in immediately, not trying to hide his excitement.

– Lead the way.

– Anything you wish for, dear husband. It's our night.

Harry's life further gets filled with so much color, feelings and melodies he can't imagine it without certain someone, tagging him on the sleeve to look at the beautiful sunset. His world gets a little softer and he likes it that way.

Invented a little thingy for the detective Auror drama arc in my fic

🪄✨Residual Dark Magic Indicator, affectionately nicknamed "Shadowgrip" by one of my OCs.

It’s a wand handle-like device of Elm wood, intricately engraved with magical runes. When connected to a wand, the runes glow if the wand was recently used to cast certain spells (only applies to powerful forms of magic)

Elaboration ⬇️

Crafting: the handle is made of Elm wood; the runes are carved into the wood using an enchanted dagger, then coated with a stabilizer potion (you have to be really careful touching it).

🌳Wand lore about Elm: ...fewest accidents, the least foolish errors, and the most elegant charms and spells; these were sophisticated wands, capable of highly advanced magic in the right hands. So I HC Elm to be used for a device which should serve as a precise indicator.

How to get one: Each RDMI is uniquely crafted to detect specific types of magical residue, depending on its rune set. In my lore, the only known RDMIs belong to the OC Head Auror (of the Northern Command), who owns two of these Shadowgrips. These were custom-designed by a wandmaker in collaboration with this Auror for investigative purposes.

These two Shadowgrips and their functions: N1: Detects if a wand was recently used to cast Unforgivable Curses. N2: Detects if a wand was recently used to cast spells from another small, specific set (spoilers for my SSL fic, so I won’t specify).

Limitations: ❗️It requires precision and deep knowledge of runes to craft this device. ❗️It can only detect powerful forms of magic that were recently cast (it can't detect spells that were cast earlier than three days before). ❗️The sensitive runes wear off after around seven uses; the RDMI becomes highly unreliable at this point and must be replaced.

🧪Muggle Analogy (partly ofc, I just was inspired by the concept): chemical analysis methods (btw already known in 19th century and earlier): Reagent Reactions: Chemicals + reagents cause visible changes (e.g., iodine indicating starch).

[fandom-tornado]

Hey there, welcome to my new blog :)

To get things started, you can call me Tornado! I'm in a bunch of fandoms, and I decided to make a blog dedicated to incorrect quote memes for all of them. The fandoms I do are under the cut, 'cause there's a lot of them lol.

How This Blog Works:

These will all be original! I swear I'm not stealing any of them, and if you see one that looks familiar, it wasn't intentional.

I also may not post regularly, the genius comes and goes as it pleases.

Sending Asks!:

Just pop a message in my inbox with a character or several, preferably along with some sort of mini prompt or at least a vibe?? And I'll give you an incorrect quote :)

If you want me to do a ship let me know, otherwise it won't exclusively be a ship because I'm not telepathic and I don't want your quote to be about something you don't want.

I'll do most ships, as long as they're not problematic (like incest or pedophilia or something).

ALSO NO NSFW!! I'd like to keep this blog fun and minor-friendly, if you please :)

But yeah! I might reblog some really good quotes I see into this blog, but I don't think I'll do that very often.

I also made myself a little tag, it's #fandom tornado

Thanks for reading this far, and enjoy thyself :) If I screw something up just let me know and I'll fix it

Fandoms under the cut ✨ Wish me luck! If I delete this blog after 24 hours nobody come after me please I have no idea how this is going to work out

The fandoms I'll be doing!! This list will definitely change. If you send an ask with a fandom I don't do, I'll answer it saying something like "Hey, sorry, I don't know that fandom" just to clarify. So without further ado,

-Star Wars Original Trilogy, Prequels, and anyone up to season 6 of The Clone Wars ('cause that's only as far as I've gotten)

-Hamilton Musical

-Harry Potter (a little iffy, 'cause fuck jkr)

-The Hunger Games trilogy/Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes

-Master and Commander/Aubreyad (I'm only on Treason's Harbor, so it's more than likely I don't know all the characters yet)

-Lockwood and Co.

-Voltron: Legendary Defender

-Mystery of Aaravos/The Dragon Prince (I don't know what it's called, fight me or correct me I don't care. I also have not seen the most recent season)

-MCU (I haven't seen all the movies, so if it's a character I don't know, I'll just let you know)

-Avatar: The Last Airbender

-The Outsiders (The book and movie, I haven't seen the musical)

-The Hobbit/Lord of the Rings

-Pirates of the Caribbean (Not movies 4 and 5 pls)

-EPIC: The Musical
