I'm once again thinking about the missed opportunities to have Klaus and Kol bond more. Part of Klaus' whole motivation as a vampire is to get his werewolf part back and to finally be stronger than Mikael (sort of, I'm simplifying) both of which can be obtained by breaking his curse. But Kol? Kol is the only other original that can relate to having a fundamental part of themself ripped away from them. Klaus might not have known he was a werewolf until he killed, but he likely still had a connection he couldn't explain, as evident by him going to watch the wolves transform. And something he'd never been able to explain was now gone. He might only be able to realise the connection afterwards through its absence.
Kol though. Kol had grown up with magic, a connection to nature and the world around him in a way the rest of his siblings supposedly didn't have. And then he gets turned. And not only has his baby brother died, his father has just murdered him and the rest of his siblings after forcing them to drink human blood, which he'll later learn. Now, not only does he have to deal with the grief of Henrik's death and also his own but also the loss of his magic. A loss that's likely only worsened by Kol being a self-proclaimed child prodigy.
Kol is pretty much the only one who could understand what Klaus is going through with the binding of his wolf. We know Kol searched for ways to get his magic back/carry on practicing magic in the same way that Klaus was looking for ways to break his curse. While Klaus likely could still feel his wolf there despite being bound, Kol has no access to his magic anymore. I just think they should've been able to bond or connect over their shared loss of an intrinsic aspect of their selves at the hands of their parents

Also on the subject of crybaby parent Bakugo, I absolutely think he’s the kinda partner who cries when you cry in general!! Who sees you weep and wants to make it stop so badly it burns his eyes and throat with frustration, makes his limbs tingle in agitation because you’re in agitation and there’s nothing he can do… even holding you isn’t enough (though it helps) because so long as you’re upset, he’s upset, too.

Timeswap!Vettonso(I blame @ayceeofspades for this)
Thoughts:
References HEHEHEHE:
So the dynamics would be: STR!Seb x Aston!Fernando and Post-Retirement!Seb x Ferarri!Fernando(~2011-2012)
The former would be a Seb who is very hungry for Fernando's attention, but now he's with a Fernando is actually now very willing to give him that attention. Fernando is constantly repeating in his head: "Don't fuck the twink don't fuck the twink don't fuck the twink", but every time they end up on the podium together, Seb always ends up being all over him and "accidentally" groping him. So Seb is still a brat but is with a Fernando who's not gonna just be cold to him but will indulge him instead 🤭
The latter is more angsty AAAHHH!! Cause its a Fernando who is in Ferrari hell and Seb who is post-catharsis. And to quote C, Fernando is like "why are you so happy??? Did you win!?" and Seb responds: "no :)" But also I am not immune to Seb being coy and playing with Fernando. He now understands why Fernando was the way he was back then because he's now gone through the same thing with Ferrari, but also wants him to stop being so gloomy and angsty about it.
Don't ask about how these AUs work, just know that they have knowledge of what their original counterparts were like so it's weird for the younger versions to get to see what ends up happening to the other, and then allows the olders to gain a new perspective instead of their biased memories(i.e.: "you're not who I was villainizing you as in my head" = both of them realize that they were building the other up as such an antagonist in their head but then, oh, he's just like me fr)(but for younger Seb, Fernando realizes Seb just wanted to be friends :( and so now he's trying to be more of a mentor.)

yeah yeah trick weekes says whatever about it not making sense that solas couldnt sneak off THEY FAILED TO CONSIDER that maybe he just is ass at it when he gets invested. much like. the whole fucking rest of the romance where he COMPLETELY fails to resist until the breakup.
anyway.
im personally of the opinion that he's more liable to slip up - fail at sneaking, accidentally reveal details, contradict himself - when he actually makes bonds with people. which is why after trespasser he goes and lives alone in the lighthouse for ten years but i digress.
and i think "that", the bonds tripping him up, should be reflected in his exit from the Inquisition. you're enemies or neutral, yeah he just vanishes. there's nothing to keep him there, nothing to interfere with his plans and intentions. you're (ex)lovers? i think he still would pull back purposefully and probably vanish, but there would be definite hesitation. he would have to force himself to do so, because fuck, he wants to stay. he wants to be close to you. but he also, crucially, knows that you have a dangerous sway over him, so he MUST disengage. if you're friends, it takes him some effort. because he does like you, he doesn't want to do what he has to, it's been so long since he had people who were friends to him, and he doesn't have to force himself away because he's in too deep. he knows you would worry about him. he might not be willing to give anyone the truth - but he would owe you a goodbye, at the very least. especially if you weren't the type to try to convince him to stay.

and while i'm hieronymousposting. i was totally assuming that he and saskia and sherman and tzila were all going to get thrown into a Situation together immediately post-reunion but since hieronymous made it to this dinner apparently that didn't happen. but i'm also relatively sure that if tzila had learned hieronymous was her father we would have seen that scene, which i guess means that he just. kept up the "friendly shipping captain harry" act and exited the room to go to this dinner. which makes me feel CRAZY,

shakes treats for older tora threads - @kyukicho
Kazutora laughs when he slams some punk's face into the ground, unfazed by what sounded like the fucker's nose breaking and the blood that spills over the ground and against his boots. Naturally there's cheers around him - at least from people who aren't too drunk to realize what's happening or busy being distracted by music and flashing lights. Doesn't matter anyway, the guy's a deer that stumbled into wolves. Kazutora slams his foot into the guy's stomach and watches him fly off to the side somewhere to the side of the club. Doesn't matter. The tiger had already ripped apart the guy's pride and beaten him up. Which meant a big, fat paycheck for him.
The tiger slinks back to his seat in the club and takes an offered drink, letting the cold numb his throat when he swallows the shitty alcohol. His phone buzzes an he beams when he sees the transaction notice. Good, that meant this month's payments no longer were something to stress about. And there'd be plenty more to do. He's fine to enjoy music so loud that he can't hear his own thoughts. Relishes it even. But a movement in the corner of his eyes catches his eyes, and he ignores the people trying to talk to him. So some fucker was trying to sneak in here, huh? Not unexpected, it was a big underground club lots of delinquents wanted in. But most weren't able to. Kazutora hops up, slinking towards the door.
" Hey fucker! " Kazutora sneers, grabbing the shirt and shoving the person back out the door into the cold night. He steps out as the shadows shroud him, gold eyes wide with violent hunger, adrenaline still singing in his veins from the earlier violence. " The hell you think you are? You think you can just - " Kazutora's voice falters, staring at the person. No. No, No. Did someone drug his drink or some shit? Was this guy someone who just LOOKED like Baji?
" You're not real. " Kazutora stares at Baji with wary disbelief. Baji wouldn't be here. Not somewhere as fucked up as here. " You can't be. " Except Kazutora HAD grabbed him, and he's pretty sure you can't grab hallucinations. He doesn't think at least. This can't be Baji. It's been years. He'd promised Baji he'd live - not that he'd stay. " You're not Baji. You can't be. But you look close. Who the fuck paid you for this stunt? C'mon. Was it that stupid ex-Night Dust leader after i crushed them? " Kazutora glares, stepping closer. " I'll literally kill him. I'll make sure no one tries this again. " His glare softens though, eyes looking Baji up and down, humming. " But you're pretty ~ Spit it out and maybe I'll be nice. " He coos, suddenly sickeningly sweet, even if his body still was tense for a fight. " You don't want my bad side. "

Let’s talk about how killing James affects Snape in the war and with his roommates. Regardless of any personal feelings for James, he was still a pureblood and Snape was a half-blood; how do the blood purists on Voldemort’s side react to him killing a pureblood, even if that pureblood was a blood-traitor? Also, he committed the homicide in broad daylight in front of dozens of witnesses, obviously not the smartest decision ever made. We also know that several of Snape’s Housemates and presumably some of his roommates were blood purists, since they go on to join the Death Eaters, so how do they react to their half-blood roommate murdering another pureblood, even if they hated said pureblood? It’s not just how Sirius and James’s family react to James being killed, but this is a fairly good representation of the current conflict in Britain and I feel like at least some of Voldemort’s supporters would use this as evidence for why non-purebloods don’t belong in their society
yES!! this is it!!
i have absolutely no doubt that minorities were scapegoated whenever possible. one person fucks up and suddenly it’s a blood purity issue. and at a time when the war was heating up the way it was? entirely possible that even if effie and flea didn’t want to take it further than individual punishment, the incident gets picked up as a way to propel the movement forward
wonder if sirius would’ve unintentionally spearheaded it bc he’s so caught up in his grief he doesn’t realise the consequences of it until years later and he’s swimming in so much regret and guilt by then—
it’s honestly such a common tactic too like,,,the potters might be blood traitors but their pureblood identity can still be weaponised by either side at any time. and if james is dead and his parents are grieving—there’s no one to stop it from happening either. and snape, i swear. he’s in such a vulnerable positions wrt blood/class, and it’s very likely he might just be put on the chopping block as the root of all problems. i feel like this might also introduce like…identity/loyalty conflict amongst *some* people atleast about what they really value, a halfblood with their ideology or a pureblood against them?
