—last kiss

pairing: theo nott x fem!reader

summary: theo and you spend time at the most beautiful place on earth and it belongs just to the both of you

note: this is my entry for the jinxed july challenge of @finalgirllx and @thatdammchickennugget

warnings: mentions of death

"last one there owes the other a secret"

blades of grass whip against your legs. wind floods your hair and the sun kisses your skin. you're probably hardly as fast as him, but you still don't stop sprinting.

"come on!" he calls loudly, his voice flying over the field and even though you know you're already running as fast as possible, you feel yourself speeding up. 

"i'm not as fast" you scream, while laughing.

"excuses" theo replies. 

your breath is heavy and you're sure your lungs will combust any second now, but before that can happen, he stops, turning his body to look at you. 

theo's face is so beautiful that you might just start crying. his eyes are blue, resembling the darkest spot in the ocean and his lips are curved upwards as he smiles at you. his hair looks soft and warm, enlightened by the sun. 

you stop in front of him, catching your breath. 

he bends down to pick a flower, pushing it behind your ear. "you look so pretty" he says. 

you say nothing. you just smile, wondering how he can say something like that when he himself looks like a greek god. 

"come on" theo says once again, outstretching his hand and taking yours. he walks you through the flower field, further and further than from where you came. 

"where are we going?" you ask, your voice just above a whisper. it's so quiet, you don't even have to speak louder for him to understand.

"a special place" theo answers and you roll your eyes behind his back. "a surprise i set up"

"you're so secretive" you laugh, slapping his arm. 

"and you're impatient."

you shake your head, what he can't see of course, but still. 

there's a bit of space in the middle of the big field, a tree hanging over the field and making space from the flowers around it. there's a blanket waiting and a basket. 

the place is absolutely beautiful just in itself, but theo made a point to decorate the tree and the blanket.

"it's gorgeous" you gush, taking his face in your hands and littering it with kisses. 

he laughs.

the wind pushes hair into your face, as you kneel down to sit on the blanket. you can't even see over the flowers around you. hiding the both of you away from the world, as you sit underneath a tree in the middle of a field of beautiful flowers. 

"how come this is still so..?"

"beautiful and untouched?" theo suggests, looking around. "it belongs to my family, otherwise i'm sure there would be a supermarket or something"

you smile. "why did you never bring me here before?"

he shrugs. "i brought you here now" 

you nod and laugh. "yeah, alright"

theo opens the basket, pushing a display of various different fruits in your direction. you smile at his dedication and take a few strawberries. 

"so?" he raises his brows and smiles at you. "i'm waiting"

the strawberries color your tongue red and leave a hint of sweetness on your lips. you smile conspiratorial. "i'm not telling you"

"well, you have to, those are the rules" 

"it's unfair" you argue playfully. "you're much faster than me and i didn't even know where we were going, so you would've won anyway"

he doesn't give in. "rules are rules, baby" he shrugs and you roll your eyes. he throws a blueberry at you, which bounces from your forehead and falls onto the blanket between you. you pick it up and plop it into your mouth, coloring your tongue purple.

"go on, love" he encourages when you're still not saying anything. 

"fine" you sigh. "i want it to be you"

"want me to be what?" he wonders, there's no hint of a joke in his voice, it's just a question. 

"i want you to be everything. my yesterday, my tomorrow. i want you to be forever, i want us to be forever" 

"we will" theo assures, kissing your temple softly, not able to hide the big goofy smile on his face. 

"you're so annoying" you giggle when he starts littering your face with kisses. 

"you don't think i'm annoying" he argues, while he starts tickling you. "you think i'm everything"

"damn right i do" you smile, as he holds in his movement "what about you?"

"me?" he repeats. "i don't have to tell you one, remember? last one there owes the other a secret. i was very clearly not last."

you roll your eyes, but accept his explanation. 

theo opens his mouth and you flick blueberries inside, coloring his tongue purple. there's a hint of sweetness on both of your mouths when you finish the strawberries and kiss his lips, tasting it. everything tastes better on his lips. even sadness. 

he holds you close to him, softly deepening the kiss and pushing his tongue into your mouth. your hands are moving in his hair and he draws patterns on the skin of your hips. 

you walk the way back. hand in hand, while you finish the rest of the blueberries. 

"they are my favourites" theo informs you.

"now you did tell me a secret" you say matter of factly. 

"that's not a secret" he insists. "but i think that depends how you define one. you seem to have a pretty low requirement"

"well, any new information you tell me is practically a secret, considering i know so much about you already" you shrug "and you had all these years to tell me" 

"you know me best" he smiles and you feel proudness bubble in your chest. "i would share secrets with you any day"

the field is just as beautiful in the winter, when you come visit it in thick clothes and blue lips. the wind has settled down and you get warm while running through the snow. 

this time you're ahead of him by a lot, which has to be on purpose. 

you reach the tree first, slapping a gloved hand against it. "ha!" you laugh, when he finally falls against the tree, next to your hand. 

"now, let's hear it, lover-boy" you raise a brow, waiting for him to catch his breath. you're almost a bit worried when it takes him longer than expected, but he speaks before you can question him about it.  

"i'm crazy about you" theo says, finally and you giggle. "and you make me feel special, no one can do that apart from you" 

you smile at him and hope that he can feel all the love and adoration you put into it. "i'm even crazier about you" you plaster a warm kiss onto his cold cheek. "and you are special, you don't need someone to make you feel like you are" 

"i'm gonna beat you the next time" he laughs, breathing in cold air and coughing it out again. 

whispered words and sunny days make the snow disappear. you sit in the tree, with theo underneath. both of you are quietly reading, only connected through the same words on either paper. 

"it's your turn" theo says as he turns his head upwards. 

you're not convinced. you didn't run here, so there's not really a winner. "unfair" you say in a sing-song and you can practically feel him roll his eyes.

"go on, love" theo says. "it was my turn the last time, remember?"

"okay, sure, mister always right" you give in, eager to return to your book as soon as possible. "you look hot today" you giggle as soon as the words have left your lips. theo looks up at you with big eyes of surprise and you laugh even louder. 

"that doesn't count" he protests. 

"not secret enough for you?" 

"it's not a secret, if anything it's just a fact" he jokes, but can't help and starts laughing at the pretended seriousness in his voice. 

"well, that's the only secret you're getting today, my love"

"whatever" 

the heat pools over both of your bodies, so you're again deciding not to run, when you come back in the summer.

still, you make a point of throwing your hand against the tree first, catching the short second of annoyance flashing over his face, as he did not think of doing that. 

"i'm ready, baby" you dance around him, as he puts down the picnic blanket, easily ignoring you. 

theo pats for you to join him and you sit down just as he throws his head into your lap. 

"today was a good day" he says and you nod, both of you deciding that it's secret enough.

"yes" you smile, as he closes his eyes tiredly. you kiss his forehead and push back his shortened hair, running your fingers through it as he easily slips into a soft sleep, both you and the sun caressing him. 

you don't come back in autumn or winter, not even in spring of the next year. it takes a whole year for you to return, when it is summer again and the heat almost burns off your skin. 

blades of grass whip against your legs. wind floods your hair and the sun kisses your skin. you're probably hardly as fast as him, but you still don't stop sprinting.

the wind moves the tree in front of you and also the flowers. it is soothing, considering the heat.

you reach the tree, slapping your hand against it, but not waiting for him to do the same, before you sink down in the grass. 

you keep silent, both of you just sitting, without anyone saying anything. 

you sigh, pushing a hand over the stone, trying to get rid of the dirt and leaves that fell from the tree. 

"fine" you finally say, laying down beside him and staring into the sky, that is almost invisible, because the tree is in the way. 

"but there's nothing new for me to tell you" you explain. "you can't be picky, you know? after all the time that passed before i came back" 

the silence is loud and harsh and you try to fill it, but end up helplessly sighing, before you find the words to continue. "i wish i could tell you something new" you mutter, a lump in your throat and a stone on your heart. a tear slips from your eye. your voice falls to a whisper. 

you don't have to speak louder than that for him to hear you. the field is quiet and so is the world around you now. 

"i still want it to be you" you can't help but cry "there's nothing i can do about it, my love" you shake your head "and i know that it's probably a shit secret, but i just want you to know the truth, my hurtful, heartbreaking, but honest truth" 

you push your hand against the stone once more, before standing up from your position next to him. 

you walk away from the tree, surrounded by a flower field. away from the most beautiful place on earth and away from theo. 

theo's tombstone rests under the tree for the rest of what you thought would be forever. the pages of the calender turning without him moving. you know it's the right place for him, because it is beautiful, no matter the season, just like theo was.

you'll come back for every season for the rest of your life, a hand on the locket with his photo and another filled with secrets. you'll have to tell a secret every time now, because theo stays under the tree and you will always be the last one there, no matter how fast you run.

Happy Year of the Snake, dear Harry Potter fandom! We invite everyone to a major themed challenge! 🧙‍♀ This symbolic year we will dedicate to the most interesting character to reveal - Nagini. She is closely related to the Dark Lord and has an intriguing biography. A maledictus witch, a woman with a blood curse that causes her to turn into a snake, the only living creature Tom Riddle had a special affection for… But who was she before she met the Lord? After? Where did she go to school? 🐍The Year of the Snake is an opportunity to broaden the understanding of Nagini and popularize her even more. The challenge of the challenge is to fantasize and portray Nagini the human in different roles and personas. A young Tom Riddle next to Nagini is very welcome! ✔Image topics: ✨Student of magical schools: Ilvermorny/Beauxbatons/Hogwarts; ✨Dancer (cabaret); ✨Auror; ✨ Healer; ✨Dark Lady and Dark Lord; ✨Wizardess in the traditional any East Asian stylization; ✨Nagini in 1940s, 1950s fashion clothing style; ✨Artist; ✨ Images of various AU, both fairy-tale-mythological and modern: gothic Nagini, cyberpunk, vampire, yokai. ✨Pairs with Tom AU, both within HP and fairy-tale-mythological: Professors at Hogwarts, Persephone and Hades, Snow Queen and Kai, Egyptian AU, and others. ⚡ The suggestions of images are uniform for arters and authors. After all, everyone can portray a particular image in their own way. Your own ideas are also very welcome! ❗Main nuances: We reveal exactly Nagini IN HUMAN form, but keeping the snake vibes for recognizability of the character. This can consist of details such as: snake eyes, subtle scales on the skin, the snake or snakes in the background of Nagini herself, details in her clothing, and of course her East Asian flavor. ✖Do not portray her in the blue circus dress from the movie. One of the goals of the challenge is to diversify the character's art base (and closet!) 🌟The number of art and text works is not limited! Choose any favorite theme or several and join our fandom snake movement! 🖊Note for authors: the challenge accepts various headcanons, sketches and mini-fanfics about Nagini (and of course, about their pairing with Tom, but with an emphasis on Nagini's biography). It would be great if someone would “swing” an entire fanfic with her backstory. ⚡All entries and posts for the challenge are published under the tag #Year_of_Nagini. The deadline for the challenge and the start of work: from the current day until March 10, 2025. An extension is possible if you get really passionate about it. 💫Join the new fandom challenge with us, it will be interesting! 💫 🖤Reblog this post to let more people know about the challenge.

SMPLive 5th Anniversary Bingo ❤️

This is an event for fanartists of all forms (visual, writing, etc) to celebrate SMPLive's fifth anniversary!

The event will run from March 1-31, 2024. The goal is to complete at least one bingo, but you are not required to finish - just do whatever you feel you can and have fun, and you can also do more if you want!

The tag is #smplive5thbingo! There's also a collection on AO3 that you can post your works to here. The event doesn't have a dedicated Discord, but you can join the SMPLive Watch Party server and we have a channel for the event there!

How to play:

All forms of creative fannish content count as a work submission - whether that be fanfiction, fanart, moodboards, playlists, reclists, web weavings, meta, poetry, podfic, crafts, or whatever else.

Sign-ups are not needed, you can simply pick up and play at any time during March!

For fics, a work submission must meet a minimum of 300 words.

A bingo may be achieved horizontally, vertically, diagonally, or by filling all four corners and the free space.

The free space is not required to be filled. It does still require a submission to be filled, but the submission can be about anything so long as it abides by the content rules.

For the more general prompts, you can interpret your prompt as literally or figuratively as you'd like!

Each submission should be posted as a separate work - this is more applicable to posting on AO3 than on Tumblr.

You are not required to make a masterpost, so long as you post your works in the tag or tag the blog in them!

All submissions must be new - past works cannot be used for the challenge.

100 days of henren - day 2: family

AN ~ for @118dailydrabble hiatus challenge <3

masterpost read on AO3

-

“Wilson family?”

Hen and Karen bolt out of their seats. The rest of the 118 braces around them, one breath held in their collective chests.

“Denny is recovering well,” the doctor advises. “He'll need strict, I mean strict bed rest for the next little while, but if he's as resilient as the rest of you I see no reason why he can't be back on the court next season. He's awake already, and asking for a Mara?” A sob escapes Karen, and she folds herself into Hen's chest. Hen holds tightly, like Karen's the only thing keeping her standing.

“Thank you, Doctor,” she manages.

“No, thank you,” the doctor returns. “Both of you. He's a very lucky boy.”

SEASONAL DELIGHTS BINGO - SPRING EDITION 💐

For this year's spring season, we have decided to go with the theme 'language of flowers'.

💐-

TYPES OF PROMPTS

flower prompts - almost each and every flower has a different meaning hidden behind it, or they symbolize different things and so for these kind of prompts, you get both a color and a flower as a prompt in one square and their meaning along with it. (for example; red roses, blue tulips, white lilies... if you ask us to do so, we will also send a small list of meaning  for each flower that is on your card)

spring prompts - spring themed prompts

general prompts - the prompts which were used for 'winter wonderland' bingo along with a couple of other extra's that were added through out the season of winter. general prompts are also divided into four smaller sections; - romantic & fluffy prompts,  - angsty & whumpy & 'scary' prompts,  - cinematic & video game & literary prompts, - dialogue & lyric & quote prompts.

💐-

This time we have two different themes (secret garden & flower bouquet) and two different versions of both of the themes (light & dark).

Every participant is able to request up to two cards.

The tags that we ask that you use for us to be able to re-blog your posts are; #seasonaldelightsbingo, #languageofflowersbingo (don't forget to tag @seasonaldelightsbingo too!)

💐 Posting period starts on march 1, 2024 till june 30, 2024.

💐 The sign up form is only available till march 15, 2024.

My submission for day 1 ‘Autumn’ of Suptober24! @wigglebox

The boys go pumpkin picking. Dean spends ages looking for the perfect pumpkin, it can't just be any old squash, it has to be 'the one' and as he looks across the orange field, he eyes find a certain angel.

Castiel, always one for strays, collects all the misshapen and discoloured pumpkins and convinces the hunter to let him get them all because he's sad no one else will want them.

Also, Sam is there. Kind of, he finds an excuse to leave the field, refusing to be the third wheel of this weird eye-fucking tricycle any longer.

[tominisnakes]

Nagini. Her name is deeply rooted in East Asian mythology with the meaning of a half-snake woman, and that's what she was originally - a human being. Her snake-like appearance, her attractive human appearance, are all "unwelcome gifts" of the curse of the Maledictus bloodline, which is passed down through the female line, and one day condemns the bearer to remain forever imprisoned in the body of a snake.

The role of Nagini in Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald was played by actress Claudia Kim.

The story of Nagini is very curious, because she managed to catch two Dark Lords, and to the second one she swore allegiance. He later gave her a part of his soul and created a living Horcrux from a Maledictus. Lord Voldemort had chosen Nagini as his closest supporter. She was literally the closest to his soul and body. Nagini was too symbolic for him. Besides having a snake-like appearance, she also saved his life in the forests of Albania. Tom Riddle was able to survive because of her venom, and rewarded Nagini in a way he would not have rewarded anyone else.

We know that she was a circus performer (actually a slave) in the 1920s, until she met Albus Dumbledore's nephew Credence (Aurelius) and ran away with him. We also know that she attended Hogwarts.

Tominisnakes proposes to fantasise about Nagini's possible biography and headcanons, both within canon and AU. So we in our group will be introducing you to what we already have, but can be interpreted even more broadly, as well as to interesting ideas that have not yet been realised in the fandom.

So let's get ready to dive into the world of Nagini and participate in the #Year_of_Nagini challenge.
