the wizau isabel catches feelings fic :-)
#paranatural#asks#telephonestalker#wizard au#u sending this ask and making me go into the doc helped me solve a plot hole/characterization issue ive been struggling with for like#OVER A YEAR. so u get a little extra for that#the L in isabel takes the L stands for like-like. it stands for crush. it stands for losing her sanity#the OG writing (tht i really didnt like but couldnt figure out an alternative) was ‘johnny gets serious hurt and isabels stressed about it#because it impacts a bunch of stuff including a huge quidditch game they have coming up which is now in jeopardy since they dont know if#johnny will be able to play and since shes team captain she’ll be responsible for her team losing. but johnny does something idk what#bc he cares. its something heartfelt bc he felt bad abt being careless and causing her stress and that action makes her heart flutter’#and then i thought hm. i dont like this.#the angle just isnt the foundation i want to build a romance arc on. so now its much less about johnnys feelings and the actions they make#him take. and then isabels reaction TO those feelings/actions. and now much more feelings are gained because despite building a friendship#on teasing and tussling and violent sport partnership this is someone shes grown to care about and doesnt want to see hurt at all.#she’d cancel the game without a moment’s hesitation because thats her teammate and she’d do anything to keep them safe#but why does this worry feel different. why does something feel worse. she’d feel this way about any of their teemmates but#by now her nd johnny hang out together and walk to class together and study late together and practice 1on1 together and she likes it#she really cares and is suddenly freaked out bc she doesnt know when that started and how she didnt notice it. and now this is someone#she cares about that got actual-not-for-jokes-hurt and shes worried#hes fine btw. maybe hes got a broken arm but ultimately he spends a night in the informary and comes out of it with a cool new story#but even after hes fine isabels still left with the aftermath of her realization. and she marinates in it for a while#this was way more than i meant to write ANYWAY my point was#her crush isnt gained bc she realizes everything he does and cares abt her. her crush is gained bc she realizes SHE LIKES HIM#its about HER feelings. not her reaction to johnnys#this au makes me unwell#johnny does still do his little ‘heartfelt sorry my carelessness made you worry im ok see? bigger n badder than ever’ thing but rather than#‘apologizing for getting hurt’ which is STUPID its more about checking in on those u care about after u made a thoughtless action#it still makes her heart jump but for a different reason. idk im still working out the kinks
