“what’s this? i thought we didn’t hug.”

it's always those 2 dumb bitches going "exactly" to one another

hc that minerva mcgonagall’s biggest nightmare in hogwarts is not any of the potter kids, but harry potter himself. harry would make any excuse and pull any card in the book to go to hogwarts during the school year to check up on his babies because that man has a separation anxiety that rivals no other (except maybe ron’s, but he’s not head auror is he?). he will lodge fake complaints to visit that school for a ‘check in.’ he will write up fake reports of a extremely dangerous creature being spotted near the grounds to ‘investigate.’ he will say theres been talk of [insert dangerous object] stashed somewhere in the room of requirement. and all of these concerns are resolved within a day, and get more and more creative as the years go on. eventually minerva stops questioning how playing an hour long chess match with his daughter is investigating and lets that man run wild.

Regulus: I hate you.

James: You want me so bad.

Draco: I hate you.

Harry: You want me so bad.

Scorpius: Yay, besties!

Albus: :D

Scorpius:

Albus:

Scorpius:

Albus: You want me so bad.

Scorpius: I want you so bad.

i have this headcanon that when scorpius was little he used to sit in the manor's garden and read "to the worms" for hours. and he'd do this every day so they could hear the next part of the story

and one day at hogwarts he's fondly telling albus about this and albus nonchalantly goes "james used to eat worms"

Imagining some pompous rich kid coming to Hogwarts a few years late and having one goal in mind: Befriend the richest people in his year.

Just to find out that the two richest people in his year, aka the two richest families at Hogwarts, are Albus Potter and Scorpius Malfoy. Complete utter losers, outcasted from even their own house, and currently giggling to eachother while picking out their bags that had been thrown into the black lake.

Maybe networking isn't that important...

Breakfast at the Potter household, but everyone woke up at like 4 pm bc vacations

James is annoying Albus about Scorpius "having a crush on Rose", the thing is, I headcanon James as the most oblivious mf alive when it comes to Albus's feelings, so he has no idea that he's basically telling his little brother that his best friend who he has a crush on will end up marrying his cousin 😭😭

I also had so much fun doing the incomplete family portraits lmao 😭

They look better than the actual drawing I kinda gave up trying to make it look pretty ngl, I have to learn how to actually draw backgrounds but meh 😴 not today

[asexualenjolras]

Don't mind me, I'm just thinking about the mirroring between Draco Malfoy knowing who Harry Potter was before they arrived at Hogwarts, and assuming that he would want to be friends with him because he's a Malfoy, and Scorpius Malfoy knowing who Albus Severus Potter was before they arrived at Hogwarts, but assuming that he wouldn't want to be friends with him because he's a Malfoy.

The stark difference between those two initial meetings is so, so important to me. And I will forever love Albus for seeing past the Malfoy name because, even though everyone was telling him that Scorpius was the "wrong sort", he went with his heart and found his soulmate.

‘scorbus coded this scorbus coded that—’

i present scorbus fawns

i don't think the hp next gen fandom talks enough about how percy's kids would be treated differently just because they're his.

like, the kids don't know why. neither do their cousins. they're just used to weird looks from their aunt and uncles and grandparents. they're used to fewer photos of their father and more jokes thrown in his direction. they're used to traits they share with percy being seen as a negative.

and maybe it's subtle. maybe their presents at christmas and birthdays aren't as personalized as the presents their cousins get, and maybe they don't notice at first because their parents always try to give them presents they'll definitely love. maybe at family get-togethers, every cousin has one of their favorite sweets made but percy's kids were never asked. but they don't notice this, either, because percy makes a big deal of them baking their favorites together when they get home.

no matter the way you look at it, with percy and audrey or percy and oliver, with percy in gryffindor or slytherin, his kids would've been treated differently by their family.

James Sirius Potter Facts

• He loved quidditch. Like really loved it. Knew he was expected to be a seeker like his dad but being a chaser like his mum is way more fun.

• He thought he was only popular because of his family but people actually really liked him for who he was.

• Has a lot of muggle born friends because at least when he started school they had no idea who he was.

• ADHD.

• Struggles to open up to people, even the ones he’s closest to. Only started opening up more when he was diagnosed with cyclothemia.

• Even though Fred is his best friend he is probably closest to Teddy or Dom.

• He was kidnapped for 5 days when he was 9 by some remaining death eaters. He tells everyone he doesn’t remember anything but he does.

• Didn’t actually care that Albus was in Slytherin and was first to stand up and applaud after his sorting.

• He wasn’t actually that good at school. He struggles a lot with the theory side of things but he was one of the best duellers at Hogwarts so people didn’t really notice.

[all-too-random]

Albus would totally name his kids those silly little contellation/star names. Not bc he's trying to keep Scorpius' family tradition or anything (although that is a plus), just bc he wants to spite Harry.

[shrimpalbuspotter]

Albus could be giggling his ass off with Scorpius and then just dead pans when someone trys to talk to him. Like you can visibly see him shaking in rage but nothing happens he just kinda scowls or gets up and leaves with his boyfriend.

[prttygirlposts]

Scorpius: Do you have a plan? Yes or no?

Albus: I have concepts of a plan.
