Barty can feel the blood well up, trickling down his skin but stopping before it hits his lips. It collects, only a bit slipping into the cracks before it trails down his jaw.

He's smiling though, despite the pain. Evan kisses him hungrily, nipping at his cracked lips and licking into his mouth, tasting Barty's blood.

It doesn't feel like much, just skin against skin, his cracked lips irritating each other's. It's messy and wet, but Barty loves it simply because it's with Evan.

Evan who was there when Dorcas dropped them.

Evan who was there when Regulus went missing then soon was considered dead.

Evan who was there when Pandora ghosted.

Barty couldn't imagine a life without him. He's certain that would be the last straw, but he laughs as the mouth that was against his leaves his lips and travels farther down. To his neck, to his chest, further.

Blood covered them and Barty couldn't tell where it all came from, but he couldn't stop looking at how it looked against dark skin and blond locs.

Barty thinks he would love to see Evan bleed. To drink from his wounds and have at least a bit of the other inside him without having to clean it out.

And when Evan finally goes to his knees, unbuckling Barty's trousers and kissing at his hip bones, Barty thinks that he could have this forever. Just the two of them. That's all he ever needs.

🥺

So I finally figured out which way Ari would go with the romance scene and was going through it so I could I guess get back to the plot. (Yes it seems Gale popped her arm back in her socket at some point in the night).

And at the end, after all the sarxy astral plane shenanigans, it shows her back in her bedroll and I notice something in the corner beyond Gale's empty bedroll.

And I'm like "WAIT. WHAT WAS THAT?"

So I go through it again. And ZOOM. ENHANCE.

MF'er has not gone to sleep. He's staying up watching everyone sleep. HIS HAND OVER HIS HEART 😭

AND THEN STARTS TO THINK REALLLL HARD

All the way until morning time.

Hogwarts Volleyball AU

Okay so it might sound dumb, but I was getting back into the haikyuu fandom and I was just seeing some Hogwarts Kagehina aus. And they were super cute! But now that the manga is over it really cements for me just how important volleyball is for Hinata and Kageyama. And so I thought about it, and what if muggle Hinata comes to Hogwarts with his love of volleyball, and ends up dragging Quidditch star Kageyama with him. It's just so funny to me.

The Idea:

Kageyama likes Quidditch. He's good at Quidditch. But volleyball calls to him like nothing else ever has. Kageyama goes with Hinata to see an official volleyball match, and he's entranced. He sees the main game ball moving in ways that can't happen from only throwing on a broom. He sees the way each team can make plays without getting hindered, that only go south from lack of talent of the players. He sees a game locked on the ground but the potential endless. And Kageyama knows he needs to play.

When Hinata and Kageyama met, it was the second year of school. Hinata was a Slytherin and Kageyama was a Gryffindor. It was lunch, and Kageyama had run away from the people wanting to talk to 'the beater who made the team as a first year'. Quidditch was simple. People weren't. When he makes it outside, he sees a boy hitting a ball into the castle wall.

Kageyama can't seem to stop his words as he calls out. "That's not how you play Quidditch! Are you stupid?"

The boy turns around and grins so brightly he has to squint. "Who said anything about Quidditch?"

I don't actually have the time to write the whole thing out right now, so I'll give the general details I'm thinking.

Hinata has already started his volleyball love since before Hogarts, living as a muggle. He's determined to be the first wizard volleyball player.

Hinata likes flying on brooms, but quidditch doesn't inspire him the way the little giant does. Sometimes the things people accomplish without powers are just cooler.

Hinata doesn't care about any of his classes, though he always tries not to fail. He's gotten a reputation as a fake Slytherin because of it. He lacks the ambition he's supposed to have. Little do they know his ambition is volleyball.

Hinata has friends, but no one understands his love for volleyball. Even fellow muggles. To them, magic is everything. Hinata likes magic, but he would give it up in a heartbeat to play volleyball like the pros do.

It hurts when no one gets his passion, so Hinata often goes to practice on his own. He knows he needs to, or he'll never improve. He's still not sure how to get into a team, but he'll figure it out. Eventually.

When the famous second year sees Hinata practice and yells about Quidditch, Hinata decides to try one last time. To show someone volleyball, and all it can offer. Kageyama listens to his explanations but actually seems a little interested. Hinata can't let that go.

Kageyama is extremely curious about this 'volleyball' Hinata is so passionate about. He can't picture it at all, since he was a wizard his whole life. So when Hinata suggests going to the muggle studies teacher to see if there are any records of games, he agrees.

The game they watch is a national match between Japan and Argentina. It's quick. It's decisive. And it's the best thing that's ever happened to Kageyama. Hinata's explanations were terrible in comparison, but made all the more sense. There weren't any words to describe how he was feeling. And he turns to Hinata and demands to learn how to play.

Hinata knows they need to be an actually good volleyball team to actually get good. Wizards who just learnt volleyball aren't enough. Kageyama makes a plan.

Said plan gives them the means to join a school volleyball team for a trial year. If they reveal themselves or simply want to stop, the trial finishes. Hinata wonders how this all got pulled off, and Kageyama doesn't mention his family connections in high places.

Hinata and Kageyama love playing on a team. They aren't good enough to start, but training with people better than them was exhilarating. They train, and train some more. It's everything they hoped.

Kageyama gets so invested in volleyball he finds himself getting more emotional than he's used too. Frustration, elation, determination, defeat, they're all things he's felt before but never so much at a time. It makes him scarier to the public, since his neutral face now scowls in thought about his next volleyball play.

Kageyama's scary reputation is contrasted with his new best friend that never seems to leave his side. They bicker all the time but always sit next to each other at meals. The school was also interested in why Kageyama wasn't playing Quidditch anymore.

With his new grouchy face, rumor has it he didn't make it this year. (Kageyama did not bother trying out. He needed to focus on volleyball.)

Timeskip through all the hogwarts years where Kagehina rises and falls in rumors, from whether they're dating to their latest incident of trouble from one of their fights.

Kageyama and Hinata become the first wizard pro volleyball players. They're happy to be pros, and play until they can't anymore. It's only then where they return to the Wizarding world, to play Quidditch which is easier on the body. They take the world by storm.

In an interview someone asks why they took so long to start pllaying quidditch. They smile at each other and answer at the same time. "It wasn't volleyball. And that always comes first."

AND THATS THE FIC GUYS. IM NEVER WRITING IT BC I HAVE NO TIME. Feel free to use it for anything but please @ me so I can see what you made! Hope you enjoyed this super long post lol.

[just-some-trans-nobody]

The only time I want to read someone describing someones eyes as orbs is a wizard while he looks into them pondering them. They're on a date, it's candle lit and he can't help but ponder as he stares into his dates glowing orbs.

[subtract-me-from-your-heart]

I see all these people doing amazing strategies and coming up with incredible solutions to things in Baldur's Gate 3 meanwhile I just go to camp and every time tell Gale to kiss me 🙃

[forcedhesitation]

tonight. I complete the balding gay boyfriend collection. I will right the wrong to which I was made to bear witness to. I've three of four men romanced already. all that remains is kissing that sad little wizard...and moonrise towers is just on the horizon.

[raksh-writes]

I really shouldn’t have made my current (and general second) run of BG3 as a tempest cleric/storm sorcerer combo, because it's so damn fun that now I won’t want to play as anything else 😂🙈

[absentmoon]

likeyou cant tell

[orionscelt]

Whole activity feed rn lmao

[polaraffect]

every day i spend so much time thinking about Gale, truly brain rot levels of pondering over him and his story, and then i load up bg3 and look at my companions, one of whom is Gale, and go 😍 Astarion 😍 so all this to say, i think the video game is cockblocking Gale
