♥ GRETA CATCHLOVE PLAYLIST: she likes to dance around the room to a worn out 12 and to marquee moon an ever shifting playlist just as messy as the girl it’s about. the playlist for when your shoes stick to the bar floor, when the sweat of strangers is indistinguishable from your own, for when you rumble through the streets at 1am in a lovedrunk buzz with your friends, neon glows shiny on the backs of their heads and your heart is so full of love for your shitty life.

Remus Lupin -

trustworthy as a confidant, but possessive of those confidences; humble in success, but petty in frustration; keenly observant, but often paranoid in his estimations; and like, a lil unlucky lmao

regulus arcturus black, 22 / death eater

( aesthetics ) dark water, crooked smiles, the heft of a crippling legacy meant to be borne by two, one side of a coin, old lines ringing hollow, gathering fog, calculated movements, careful lies, unquenchable guilt, permanent dark circles, weighted secrets, white linen, self-preservation, the promise of penance, fleeing footfalls, a star on the brink of collapse

( - ) moody, controlling, possessive, paranoid, lies, bitter, selfish, greedy, spiteful, stubborn

( + ) ambitious, intelligent, confident, focused, observant, clever, charming, decisive, adaptive

( themes ) the disillusioned masquerading as a believer; knowledge as a curse, not a blessing; thoughts slick with unspoken remorse; the choice between martyrdom and espionage; the pain and horror of becoming nothing more than a mask

slow or frantic, cheesy or earnest, violent or peaceful, rock or pop. the man does nothing by half, and his music taste is no different. depeche mode, black sabbath, led zeppelin, the eagles, cheap trick–he regrets the years he spent without muggle music, always has a record playing in his home or the studio, has a tendency of playing something three too many times in a row for anyone else’s liking. earnestly almost cried when harry sang war pigs at the dinner table.

peace on earth o’shaughnessy aesthetics . 

gas station flowers left on an unyielding doorstep. stick and poke tattoos bleeding ink in all directions. flakes of spray paint caught in chewed nails. termite-bitten stairs bowing and creaking underfoot. blue-tipped fingers that never get warm. improvised ashtrays. nightly prayers mixing into promises of revenge. a mood changing at the drop of a hat. gunpowder dusted madonna and child on a mantle. a door rammed off its hinges, lock dangling useless. infected cuts under old bandages. knuckles so busted they can’t roll their own cigarettes. blood red burst vessel clashing with a grey-blue eye. fist-sized holes in plaster. salt-raw cheeks, shame-red cheeks.

KARIM AL-ZAIDI — Death Eater — Politely cosmopolitan foreigner, or soft-voiced messiah: take your pick. Blink twice and see: sharp-fanged beast in sheep’s clothing. 

AESTHETIC — neatly folded stacks of newspapers • gray skies over grayer cities • the clink of china in quiet tearooms • a signet ring, heavy on the hand • the collar of a raincoat turned upwards, obscuring the face • blue velvet • quiet power plays conducted over shared cigars • benevolent handshakes

☆☆☆ STUPEFY MEDIA INC. ☆☆☆

☆ what the fuck is stupefy media? 

sick of toeing the party line a group of individuals have found alternate ways to have their voice heard. a small, secret media collective takes the message that the prophet and the wwn refuse to disseminate and concentrates it somewhere where it can’t be poisoned by the government censorship or dulled by sponsorship. Inspired by independent muggle media this collective produces a weekly radio show and a monthly zine with an anti-authoritarian message. word has spread and both have quickly become favourites of resistance leaning wixen youth. [CLICK HERE FOR THE WHOLE SUBPLOT]

☆ greta’s role 

sick of not being able to play songs that swear greta said ‘fuck this!’ to her long, uneventful graveyard shifts at wwn in favour for hosting loveline (a no braincell dating advice show with punk music interludes) on a janky illegal radio station. though she still hosts a weekly slot on wwn she uses her position at the station to steal equipment for stupefy fm thinking she’s slick (she ain’t!) and uses her love of arts and crafts to help with the production of stupefy mag. though greta is definitely a supporter of like, equality and stuff her firm belief in watching out for her own neck has kept her unaligned up until this point and its likely that she does not realise just how much trouble could come from being a part of stupefy media. 

☆ some plot ideas

you work at the wwn and notice greta is stealing shit this can either a) be trouble  b) be the start of joining SFM

someone recognises greta’s voice from the new show / her old show for better or worse aka beat her down for talking shit 

let her give you the worst possible dating advice and thus ruin your life 

let her set you up on the worst possible date of your life (more on this coming soon) 

trigger an existential crisis by making greta realise just how deep she’s accidentally gotten
