#harry is also a simp

[lacrise666]

As the professor continued to spout information that everyone in the class would forget within the hour, Harry stared at Riddle.

He wasn't shy about the intensity at which he viewed the older boy, and to be fair, Riddle stared back just as much.

Their eyes just seemed to gravitate to one another.

Harry could vividly remember the other day at dinner. Riddle had been sitting at the Slytherin's table, Harry at Gryffindor's, and although both of them had been surrounded by large groups of people, and the Great Hall was louder than ever, Harry Potter saw nothing but Tom Riddle.

It was a painful thing, the beauty that Riddle was.

Sometimes Harry didn't think it was fair that the boy had been gifted such looks and then threw it back in Merlin's face while on his quest for immortality. But that was Voldemort, and this was Harry's Riddle, here and now, who had yet to lose his looks and seemed to know that he was beautiful.

And what was Harry to do but stare.

He now had a better view of the boy then what he had in the diaries memories and Harry planned on abusing the new angles that were on display.

Every since he got thrown back into the past, Harry had given up on trying. Trying life, trying school, and trying to care. Being the chosen one came with a cost, and Harry found that it costed him his concerns.

Now, he was in a time where no one knew him and he was free to make his own decisions. And one of these decisions, it seemed, was to become as obsessed with Tom Riddle as Voldemort had been with Harry.

The insanity of it made Harry wheeze.

Regardless though, he found himself trailing after the older boy when class was finally dismissed, not really knowing where he was or why he was following him.

After passing many other students and a great deal of abandoned classrooms, Riddle finally stopped moving. Slowly, the boy turned around, an amused gleam shadowing his eyes.

"You are aware that what you are currently doing could be considered stalking, yes?"

"What?" Harry answered confused.

"This," Riddle gestured outwards, "following me around everywhere like you have nothing better to do."

"I don't have anything better to do."

Riddle paused for a moment, "Are you completely sure, Harry? We did just get an essay assigned for Transfigurations. Or were you not paying attention?"

Harry was aware that that was Riddle informing him the he knew Harry had been staring at him.

'Good,' Harry thought, 'Riddle should pay just as much attention to me as I do to him.'

"Umm, no. I really wasn't paying attention. I was actually looking at a rat in the classroom."

Irritation joined the amusement.

"Pardon? What did you just say, Harry?" Riddle spoke.

"Nothing. Would you like to work on that essay with me, Riddle?"

The boy contemplated that question for a moment. Then, straightening his bag on his shoulder, he came to a decision.

"Fine, but you do not touch the parchment and I make the final call on what is written."

"Deal," Harry smiled, mostly because when Riddle tried to be all controlling, he got this little look on his face that Harry found adorable.

"Deal." Riddle began walking past Harry and towards the library. When he pasted, he looked down at Harry with a challenging glint in his eyes, and maybe, just maybe, something a little bit fond.

Harry, retracing his steps from earlier, followed him blindly.

As he did, Harry thought, 'It really isn't fair how pretty Tom Riddle is.'

do you ever find yourself just enjoying your life and then suddenly you remember ginny was harry’s last thought before he died

James Potter is my... everything. To say he is my life would be putting him to something that is not worth enough. And claiming he is everything is not just.. still too little because he is EVERYTHING. He can do no wrong in my eyes and I refuse to admit he could ever be wrong. When he is upset in fanfiction I read I am upset and he is right, the other person is wrong. That is it. End of question. No one else gets to win. It's James. When he is happy I am happy. End of case. Moving on to the next. Thinking about him gives me so much happiness inside it is almost unhealthy. I don't care if everyone else is suffering my mind can only be centralized on James and it has been for years and nothing and none one could ever change my line of thought. He is literally perfect. In any pairing James is in- I don't care I love them all because James is in love with them and James being happy makes me happy and he deserves all the happiness.

James hates sleep but yells at people to get more of it

sirius learned to ballroom dance and james learned to golf

damn i know he’s evil and manipulative but mmmmmmm he talks pretty

[padfootastic]

randomly thinking about- james potter had a posture so great that even voldemort commented on it hours

like everytime I see that line knowing i just laugh at that detail and the audacity in voldemort's voice.

it's tied to the "my father didn't strut" as top tid bits we got about jfp

hehehehe james was such a top tier character is it rly a wonder we have an entire cult for him? like, it’s so funny that the literal big bad’s kryptonite is the potter family 😭

also lol @ poor harry always getting this kind of info from his enemies. like he knows nothing about his dad except he looked like him, strutted around the castle, and had great posture. is it rly a wonder he has daddy issues?

Here I am grieving over severus all over again because of this dumb TikTok tree with that song going "haven’t I given enough"

Ah yes, one of my favourite hobbies. Scrolling through sad edits and sobbing about my comfort characters 🥰

i swear the tumblr toxic bad boy obsession in 2010-2014 was a different time like if the guy wasn’t somehow fuxked up or at the very least a serial killer we would make damn sure he would be in every single self insert fanfiction

Really love the bait and switch where in 2x12 Sophie brings her emotional support lawyer Harry with them to London but the big Character Development Confrontation™ in 2x13 is actually between her and Eliot (as it should be, because some things need to be between the og team, as much as I love Harry).
