“Draco! Come quick!”
“What? Harry? Where are you?”
“Come quick! Hurry! They’re hatching! They’re hatching!” Harry’s almost shrieking. It’s endearing how excited he is, but does he have to be this hysterical?
Draco makes his way across the barn, past his cows. Rosemary and Elisabeth eye him warily. Their big brown eyes, usually so kind, are open wide, showing just how spooked they are.
“It’s alright girls.” He stops to reassure them. Rosie comes closer, so he can pat her adorable nose and she can lick his palm, tickling him just a little.
“Dracooo!” He gives his girls and apologetic look, then sets off again.
“Harry! Stop screaming,” he hisses, once the familiar messy curls come into view. “You’re scaring my cows!”
“Come her, come here,” Harry says, ignoring the complaints. Draco rolls his eyes but can’t help the fond smile spreading across his face.
“Look,” Harry says, pointing as they huddle around the incubator.
Sometimes Draco still can’t believe this life they build together.
The house by the beach, selling produce on the Farmer’s Market. His beautiful cows and since a few weeks ago the chicken, too. And, of course, Harry.
Who would’ve thought that they’d be so good together, completing each other so perfectly?
“Look,” Harry repeats, just barely whispering. He points at one egg close to the glass, with a tiny crack in its shell.
In awe they watch as the crack in the eggshell slowly spreads and widens. Finally they can see a small beak emerge from the opening. It’s not long, before the egg finally cracks completely and a tiny wet chicken head appears. The rest of the chick, still trapped in its shell, tips over, making the chicken tumble out through the already existing hole.
There it lays, wet and ugly and helpless, condemned to wait for his siblings, before it will be rescued from the incubator.
“It’s beautiful, isn’t it?” Harry has tears in his eyes and a fond smile on his lips. He’s so proud of this tiny chick. His tiny chick. “Yes, very beautiful,” Draco agrees.

.....because i apparently want to pour gasoline on the already burning dumpster fire that is life in 2022-
thoughts on veganism? _(:з)∠)_
I'm all for it in a you-do-you situation! Just like with any other lifestyle choice, I think it's 100% valid to live that way. My issue with Vegans comes when they start judging MY lifestyle, or worse, spreading lies and trying to scare people (there's stuff Vegans have said to me and others about bees that is just straight up not true and absolutely makes my blood boil)
I have several medical necessities that would make it essentially impossible for me to be Vegan, but like I said, I totally support people who choose that lifestyle, as long as they're not being mean/judgemental about it! 💜💜

Genuinely, I don’t know how else to get the word out, but I feel like if your home-cooked dinners don’t taste right, you're missing either paprika, sugar, butter, or chicken bouillon.

[image id: a four-page comic. it is titled "immortality” after the poem by clare harner (more popularly known as “do not stand at my grave and weep”). the first page shows paleontologists digging up fossils at a dig. it reads, “do not stand at my grave and weep. i am not there. i do not sleep.” page two features several prehistoric creatures living in the wild. not featured but notable, each have modern descendants: horses, cetaceans, horsetail plants, and crocodilians. it reads, “i am a thousand winds that blow. i am the diamond glints on snow. i am the sunlight on ripened grain. i am the gentle autumn rain.” the third page shows archaeopteryx in the treetops and the skies, then a modern museum-goer reading the placard on a fossil display. it reads, “when you awaken in the morning’s hush, i am the swift uplifting rush, of quiet birds in circled flight. i am the soft stars that shine at night. do not stand at my grave and cry.” the fourth page shows a chicken in a field. it reads, “i am not there. i did not die” / end id]
a comic i made in about 15 hours for my school’s comic anthology. the theme was “evolution”
