#beth x harry

[tqgincorrectquotes]

Harry: I asked Beth to share her queen-sized blanket, to which she replied she was a queen and therefore the blanket was already at max capacity.

[kerrslvr]

the fact that the UK government has rallied together to get rid of what looks like a bisexual flag on the back collar of a euro 24 england shirt and not to call for ceasefire in gaza, stop innocent children being killed, help the children in their own country not starve (need i go on), really says a lot about this damned fucking country.

BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER (1997 - 2003) ⏤ 5.06, Family

[black-coffee-balletomane]

genuinely might start writing fanfiction partially bc I think it might help me practice my writing skills and also equally validly bc there are a million characters I headcanon with an eating disorder that I want to read about having an eating disorder but nobody has written them yet and also I am starved (ha ha) for good writing on eating disorders, it is so often so off ughhhh

is it weird if I literally start an AO3 that only ever does ED fics? is that bad? ik there's an audience for it...

[put-me-in-a-movie-mp3]

hi!! i was wondering if i could request a matchup—from any fandom (besides stranger things), i only want to mention that i use he/they pronouns and have a strong preference for women :D!!

APPEARANCE: 5’3” (but the combat boots i wear almost every day make me 5’6”) bodily fem, adrog-masc presenting! i’m mixed between indian & cuban, so i Do have melanin, with black hair (that’s usually at a short-ish wolfcut style). i have tons and tons of beauty marks on my face and arms, & i have a few scars on my hands and face from various shenanigans. i dress in a dark academic style, and sometimes trad goth if i’m feeling Tangy. i dont have any tattoos yet, but i do have plans for some!

PERSONALITY: slytherin, chaotic good, 7w6, infj-t! sometimes i feel like all of my skill points went into academia because i’m literally incompetent in anything other than that. i hyperfixtate on plants, and I get along better animals than with humans lmaooo. i’m super introverted, but i’m super talkative after breaking the ice (borderline “please shut up” levels of talkative). i’ve been described as loyal, stubborn, and outspoken by family and friends! that said, i do appreciate my quiet+alone time!! if it’s important: i’m an aries sun, libra moon, & scorpio rising.

INTERESTS: digital art, writing, and storytelling in unusual mediums!! i love drawing (and am currently suffering from soreness & bad posture from doing so), writing horror/morbid stories for my own entertainment, and storytelling thru both!! i also spend a Lot of time coding websites i use and such, so. yeah!! anything with a good hook and sinker can get my full attention, in terms of people and stories alike.

HOBBIES: drawing!!! and also playing video games (my favourites being rdr2, horizon: zero dawn, etc). i love daydreaming to music, and occasionally: hiking, swimming, and horseback riding! but yeah. sometimes the best thing i do in a day is wake up at an ungodly hour, draw a picasso level complex piece, and then promptly pass out and wake up Many hours later and cry at said piece.

Hi!! This is who I think you would be most compatible with!!

Fandoms: Stranger Things, Harry Potter and The Walking Dead! (These are my current fandoms that I aim 24/7 obsessed with! lol hope you like it :) <3)

Stanger Things

I think you would be compatible with Max! I could see you guy starting off as friends and then turning to lovers. I feel like you would understand her in another level that others don't. You guys would have deep conversations and just enjoy each others company. I think you would send little drawings to her that would cheer her up too! And the video game obsession you guys share!!! You would constantly be trying to beat each other! Also I feel like you would come off a little mysterious to Max and maybe not getting along right away. But eventually I could see you just letting her talk about her past and how she feels you just being there and learning more about her as a person. I feel like you guys would then turn to lovers!

Harry Potter

I think you would be enemies to lovers with Hermione Granger! Hear me out! I could see you guy eventually maybe becoming friends before lovers but I most feel enemies and here's why... I feel like it would start in herbology class where you are like the most knowledgeable on plants and you would hang around Neville and Luna. I think she would secretly despise you since you are very gifted in this subject. As it comes natural to you. She's defiantly heard about you since you are a Slytherin but you are not known as some of the evil ones such as Malfoy...lol! I think then you would kind of tutor her a bit or her trying to ask for your help but not directly because of how she doesn't like to accept help from people especially her studies. I think she would become a bit annoyed at the way she would start to fall for you. But you eventually confront and ask her and she says no. But then you give her a look and you just knew it was a yes!

The Walking Dead

Now I know that many characters have passed away but immediately when I read your request I just had to ship with this person!

I ship you with Beth Greene. I think that you would be her safe person. I feel like she would feel the most comfortable and protected with you. I could see you telling her stories about your life post apocalypse and drawing her little pictures. You would defiantly be the genius in the group (better than Eugene). You would be able to hack into systems and such to help the group out. I also think you and Beth would talk about your future together a lot. You would also have a lot of fun swimming and lakes or taking walks to scavenge stuff for the group in the forest or wherever you are at to help the group out!

Hope you enjoyed!! :)))

First Day (alessia russo x reader)

Summary: In which Alessia joins Arsenal and you have to learn to navigate the new stage of your relationship at training.

———

“I can’t wait for you to meet everyone,” you gush, as Alessia signals and turns her Mercedes into the drive that leads to the Arsenal training centre at London Colney. “Not just the girls, but the staff too.”

“Well, I did meet some of them already,” Alessia points out. “When I first signed. The physios, some of the training staff. Even some of the girls, like I’ve played against most of them before.”

“Yeah, but now you get to play with them.”

Alessia pulls up to the barrier that blocks entry into the training ground and waits as the porter emerges from his cabin and approaches the driver’s side window. As she lowers the window, you lean across the console in the middle of the car and give him a little wave.

“Morning Harry!” you greet him with a cheery wave. “This is Alessia, by the way.”

Harry smiles at you in recognition when he spots you in the passenger seat, then turns his attention to Alessia.

“You must be the girlfriend,” he says. “It’s nice to finally meet you.”

“Nice to meet you too,” says Alessia.

“Have a good day, girls!” he says, as he returns to his cabin to raise the barrier so that Alessia can drive through.

“The girlfriend?” Alessia says, as she drives through the gate and enters the car park. “Seriously? Is it going to be like that all day?”

She’s not actually mad at you, but you can tell she’s possibly a little disheartened that her first interaction with an Arsenal staff member on her first day has gone like that.

“It’s just that I talked about you so much last season,” you try to reassure Alessia. “It’s probably just weird for them to finally put a face to the name.”

She pulls into an empty space under your direction - there aren’t allocated spaces for players but there’s a certain amount of unspoken carpark politics about who can park where - then switches off the engine. You’re practically humming with excitement in the passenger seat and can’t get out of the car quick enough, eager to show Alessia around her new home and introduce her to more of her new colleagues. 

As Alessia gets out of her side of the car, she looks a bit like a kid on the first day of school, eyes wide with a slight fear of the unknown and her teeth chewing at her lower lip.

“Nervous?” you ask, collecting both of your bags out of the back of the car before wandering around to her side.

“A little,” she admits with a nod. “It’s all brand new, isn’t it? But I’m sure I’ll settle in quickly.”

“Lucky you’ve got me to hold your hand,” you grin at her, doing exactly that and taking her hand in yours.

“Yeah, I am,” Alessia replies, her face cracking into a more relaxed smile, her eyes crinkling at the corners.

She’s so pretty that you forget where you are for a second, trapping her between your body and the side of her car as you lean in for a quick kiss.

A kiss that is interrupted before your lips can even meet by the obnoxious triple toot of a car horn.

“Oi oi!” Beth shouts through the open window of the newly arrived car, which Viv carefully pulls into the parking space next to Alessia’s. “The lovebirds are here already.”

You step back, putting a bit of space between yourself and Alessia as Beth gets out of Viv’s car, closely followed by Laura, who was in the back seat.

“Exactly what this team needs,” the Austrian says sarcastically. “Yet another couple.”

“She’s just kidding,” you reassure Alessia.

“She’s just salty that she’s still single,” Beth teases Laura, draping an arm around Laura’s shoulder and ruffling her hair affectionately. “We’ll find you someone soon, Laur, don’t worry. It’s good to see you again though, Lessi.”

“Yeah, you too,” Alessia agrees with a smile.

You follow Beth, Viv and Laura towards the training building, Alessia walking in step beside you.

When you get inside the building, you find a few more of your teammates, greeting the old ones with hugs and meeting a couple of the other new signings for the first time. Lotte’s there too, and Alessia greets one of her closest friends with a long embrace even though it’s been barely a week since they last saw each other at the end of the World Cup.

You’re almost bursting with pride as Alessia pulls away from Lotte and starts introducing herself to the rest of the team, watching your two worlds collide for the first time. It’s surreal to have Alessia here with you, to know that she’s going to be training and playing alongside you, sharing the same experiences and friends as you.

“Do you want me to give you a little tour?” you ask Alessia, once she’s finished having a bit of playful banter with Steph about the goal she scored in the World Cup semi final.

Alessia grimaces slightly, then says, “Sorry, I sort of promised Lotte she could show me around.”

“Oh,” you say, trying to mask the disappointment that washes over you. “Okay.”

You can’t have done a very good job at hiding your emotions, because Alessia reaches for your hand and reassures you, “It’s nothing against you. I just … if we’re attached at the hip all day then I worry people are just gonna know me as your girlfriend. And don’t get me wrong, I’m so proud of that, but I want them to get to know the real me too.”

“I get it,” you promise her with a nod. You nudge her away in the direction of Lotte, then say, “Go. I’ll see you later when we start training.”

———

You understand Alessia’s reasoning, even if you’re a little disappointed when she keeps her distance during training too.

She’s not ignoring you, far from it in fact, but she stands at the other end of the line to you for the dreaded bleep test, then always seems to end up in different groups for the training drills that follow.

You’re so happy to see her with a smile on her face, joking around with people who have been your teammates for the last couple of years, but the longer training goes on, the greater your urge is to just skip over to her and ask her how she’s getting on.

You manage to resist the temptation - only just - but you’re struck by yet another blow of disappointment when Alessia sits on a different table at lunch, leaving you to sit with Beth, Viv, and a couple of the Scandinavians, watching Alessia and her new friends from afar.

“What’s up?” Viv asks, nudging you out of your trance with her foot under the table.

“Nothing,” you answer quickly, turning your attention back to your lunch.

“Alessia’s making new friends,” Beth answers on your behalf, shooting you a knowing look. “She’s sad that she’s no longer Lessi’s favourite Gooner.”

“That’s not even a little bit true,” you protest. “I’m happy she’s settling in already.”

“But…?” Beth asks, prompting you for more with a raise of her eyebrows.

You let out a sigh, then admit, “But I had this idea in my head that I’d get to show her around and introduce her to everybody. That we’d get to train together and hang out all the time now that we play for the same team.”

You hear Alessia’s laugh from across the room and glance over to watch as she creases up at something that Steph says. 

“I’m glad she’s enjoying her first day, but I thought she’d be enjoying it with me, you know?” you explain.

Viv nods along thoughtfully, then says, “The thing is, if you spend all day at training together, then all evening at home together, you’re gonna get sick of each other pretty quickly.”

Beth nods along and adds, “Yeah, trust us on that one. And we’re both experts on dating a teammate. We know all the tricks to staying sane.”

“Apart from when we were out on the pitch, you’ve been glued to each other’s sides all day,” you point out.

“Yeah, and some days are like that,” Viv reasons with you. 

“Some days she can’t get enough of me,” Beth jokes.

“And other days I want to strangle her by lunchtime,” Viv counters, rolling her eyes at Beth. “The trick is to find the balance. It takes time, but you’ll both figure it out.”

“Yeah, it took us a while,” Beth agrees with a nod. “I’m a bit like you, I thought I wanted to spend all day with Viv when we first got together but I learned that she likes a bit more space.”

“Especially when she wants to make a TikTok,” Viv jokes. “But the main thing is that it’s healthy to want space from each other. It doesn’t mean she doesn’t love you.”

You feel eyes on you and when you look up, Alessia is looking straight at you. Your eyes meet across the room like you’re seeing each other for the first time and your breath catches in your throat, still not quite used to the sight of Alessia in the new black training kit with the Arsenal badge displayed proudly on her chest. It’s just the two of you for a moment, her blue eyes piercing into your soul from the other side of the room, then her face breaks open into a big smile that you know is because of you and not anything that’s been said by one of the girls on her table, before she turns away.

Your heart does a little flip in your chest and you glance back down at your food, trying to smother the smile that threatens to break across your own face.

Unfortunately for you, Beth and Viv seem to have witnessed the entire interaction. 

“Told you,” Viv says smugly. 

“Yeah, we’re always right,” Beth announces.

Viv pushes her chair back and gets to her feet, collecting her tray as she says, “And that’s my cue to take my own advice before Beth’s head gets so big that it’s taking up all my personal space. I’ll catch you later.”

———

You reflect on their words, feeling a little less weird about keeping your distance from Alessia for the rest of your day. Jonas holds an extended team meeting, first introducing the new signings (and so what if you clap a little more enthusiastically for Lessi than the others?) before he lays out his objectives for the season and starts talking about the Champions League qualifiers. 

And before you know it, it’s the end of Alessia’s first day at Arsenal. She waits for you outside the dressing room once you’ve collected your things, pushing herself off the wall opposite when she sees you leaving the room with Katie.

“Hey, you,” she says, falling into step alongside you as you make your way back out to the car. “Want me to cook dinner tonight?”

Alessia a far better cook than you, probably thanks to those Italian genes and her Nonna’s influence in the kitchen, so you’re never going to turn down her cooking.

“Ooh, yes please.”

“Let’s stop at Tesco on the way home then. I think we need a few bits.”

It’s so cute, so domestic, and you really could get used to this. Living together, working together, doing the weekly food shop together - all little things that you didn’t get the luxury of doing together when she lived in Manchester. You’re never going to take that for granted again.

Remembering the conversation with Beth and Viv over lunch, as you climb back into the passenger seat of Alessia’s Mercedes, you say, “I’m sorry if I was smothering you a bit this morning.”

“Don’t be silly,” Alessia tries to reassure you, as she starts the engine and checks over her shoulder for cars as she reverses out of the space. “I know you were just excited and wanting to help me settle in.”

“Beth and Viv talked some sense into me at lunch,” you tell her. “All about boundaries and personal space.”

“From those two?” Alessia asks, glancing across at you to arch an eyebrow as her mouth curls upwards into a smile. “They were making such hearteyes at each other across the gym earlier.”

“That’s what I said!” you agree excitably. “But they do have a point. As excited as I am to have you on the team with me, I know it’s not reasonable to expect us to spend all our time together. Nor is it healthy.”

“It doesn’t mean we won’t ever spend time together at training,” Alessia reminds you. “Just not all the time. We’ll figure it out.”

“Yeah, we will,” you nod.

Alessia follows the trail of cars slowly making their way out of the training facility and winds down her window at the gate.

“See you tomorrow!” she calls out of the window to Harry the porter.

He responds with a cheery wave and replies, “Good first day, Alessia?”

“Yeah, it was great, thanks.”

“I’m glad to hear it. Have a nice evening, girls.”

Alessia pulls through the gate and out onto the main road, then asks you, “You’ll be my partner in training tomorrow though, right?”

You can’t stop the grin from spreading across your cheeks.

“Just try and stop me.”

For anyone who has friends, they want to slowly convert into jily stans...

You've got to start them off with the popular variants

percabeth (percy jackson series)

shirbert (anne of green gabels)

peraltiago (brooklyn 99)

lumax (stranger things)

odesta (the hunger games)

anastasia x dimitri (Anastasia)

claire x jamie (outlander)

gwen x peter (the amazing spiderman)

tiana x naveen (the princess and the frog)

benny x beth (queen's gambit)

patrick x kat (10 things I hate about you)

zoya x nikolai (grishaverse)

liz x wes (better than the movies)

You get the idea.

Then you get them to watch jily edits to songs you know they like.

Next, you send them seemingly random text posts and casually mention how it kinda reminds you of them.

If they're open to it send them like 3k one-shots or microfics. Hopefully, by then you can start sending them fic recs.

The key is to ease them into it and then reveal that you’re actually emotionally dependent on harry potter's dead parents
