#yule ball 2020

[herelieskrisy]

Call me crazy but I think an ellie williams hogwarts AU would be fun.

like, imagine her on the quidditch team and parading you as her gf (or nb partner) at the three broomsticks after winning a game. or you’re two best friends pining for each other and she asks you to be her date for the yule ball.

OR OR my fav is you’re both extremely competitive and would do anything to win the house cup (they’d obviously be in different houses). constantly getting each other in trouble and shit. i’m thinking frame jobs, pranks, racing each other to answer questions in class, and just plain old tattling! would be even more interesting if they both played quidditch and after a heated game got into an intense makeout session (that possibly leads to angry hate sex?).

my fellow tlou + harry potter fans pls pls rise up 😞🙏 im never gonna dream of writing anything harry potter related cause it brings me back to the dark ages (2020 dracotok).

anyways, what house do you think ellie’s in? everyone seems to think gryffindor or slytherin, but ravenclaw could be a possibility. in my belief, she’s more of a gryffindor with ravenclaw undertones.

[sitp-recs]

hi liv!! <3 recently ive been very into harry/george, i was wondering if you had any recs for that? thank you so much, i hope you have a great day xoxoxo

I got you, anon! Writcraft sold me on this ship back in 2020 and I’ve been slowly making my way through their tag since then. Such a great rare pair! Here are some recs for you, enjoy :)

Stepping Out by Alisanne (T, 900 words)

Harry is sent to talk to George.

After Hours by torino10154 (E, 1k)

Harry stayed behind with George to help tidy up the shop and, after a bottle of Wicked Witch of Western Wales Wine, well, one thing led to another.

Highland Fling by sliebman10 (E, 1.5k)

While on holiday, Harry and George decide to try on kilts. They are very taken with the different look, and one thing leads to another.

Maybe by Vorabiza (T, 5k)

George and Harry need some time alone to heal, but being alone together opens up new possibilities.

See You Next Week by TwoAces (NR, 5k)

George is struggling to cope with the death of his twin, and Harry just wants to get through to him. He doesn't realize quite how torn up he is, himself, though, and through their attempts to heal each other they discover they are very much in love.

Tell Me (We Belong Together) by Maggs0607 (M, 6k)

Harry isn't sure when or how it happened, but one day he looks around the Burrow table and realises that in the three years after War, George Weasley has become his best friend.

Just Like You by @wynnefic (E, 9k)

Of friendship, grief, and getting it on with a polyjuice version of your deceased loved ones. (Polyjuice: Fred/George and Harry/Sirius). Cw: incest

Hopelessly Devoted To You by @writcraft (E, 10k)

Harry and George watch a lot of musicals and accidentally fall in love.

Two out of Three by @wynnefic (T, 15k)

A few years after the war, Harry thinks he has the ideal life. He's working his way up to his ideal job, he's still together with his Hogwarts sweetheart, he's got a couple of great friends, and he's love potioned to the gills.

Evergreen by @thecouchsofa (T, 23k)

Harry asks George to the Yule Ball because it’ll be a laugh and he’s in dire need of one of those. If George can continue to keep his crush under wraps it should all go swimmingly.

May Contain Nuts by scoradh (E, 32k)

After Voldemort is defeated, the script for Harry's life comes to an end. Unsure of what to do with his life, he does nothing. Only one person is on hand to show Harry that a hero is not the sum of his vanquished enemies, but he's got problems of his own. Cw: major character death

Sunshine on Leith by GobletOfCider (M, 78k) - Muggle AU

After years of running from his problems, avoiding family and anything that resembles stability, George finds himself a little bit smitten with single dad, Harry. Settling down in Edinburgh was never part of the plan, but it just might be everything he didn't know he needed.

Bonus: minor Harry/George

A Season in Amber by Thevina (T, 8k) - Dron

Nowhere in Draco's job description does it state that because he's an Unspeakable, he's skilled enough to retrieve Ronald Weasley (or anyone) from beyond the Veil. But when Potter gives him no other options but to join him in this literal death-defying endeavour, Draco does exactly that. If only finding Ron had been the hardest task.

Inevitably Everything by CheekyTorah (M, 8k) - Dron

Ron didn’t need help finding a date.

Sad Girl Fall by yrfrndfrnkly (M, 20k) - Pansy/Luna

Pansy's been watching Luna follow her autumn vibes wherever they take her for six years. This year, she follows along.

songs that would play at a gryffindor party

Summary: head canons on what songs would play during a Gryffindor party- and I guess a Muggle born takes the aux?? LMFAO

Warnings: nods to underage drinking/partying

Masterlist

Super Freak- Rick James

Oh, this is the song that everyone goes CRAZY TO. Especially Fred and George. I imagine them duetting this at karaoke night or something, like, this is SO their song. 

Me And Your Mama- Childish Gambino

THIS is the song that sets the mood. Imagine: this blaring through the room as you walk into the Gryffindor common room packed with people, the lamps charmed red... you walk to the drinks table to chug a glass of something or other, wince at the strong taste before spotting your friends and the night begins. Perfect.

Gas Pedal- Sage The Gemini

OKAY THIS HAS STUCK WITH ME SINCE I SAW IT ON 2020 DRACOTOK. “Imagine this plays at the Yule Ball and you absolutely back it up on your favourite character,” AND YES. I imagine everyone hyping each other up and it just being a good time, good vibes. Sensual tension goes crazy.

Shoop- Salt-N-Pepa

This song I saw in a fanfic and its so perfect. Also its a 90s song so it fits in with the timeline as well!! I love imagining all the girls in a big circle hyping each other up and singing along together omfg. You, Angelina, Katie, Alicia, Hermione, Ginny, Padma- just the fine ass Gryffindor girls getting at ittt and the boys are just watching you all and you all just giggle and get down w ur girls

Can’t Take My Eyes Off You- Frank Valli

Lee would totally sing this and go all out. I head canon he’s a really good singer and he bodies this into the mic while everyone is dancing. The song starts out slow and romantic and then it breaks out and the crowd goes wild. I can imagine Luna and Ginny would be slow dancing and then the music picks up and Luna pulls out her classic Luna moves and makes Ginny laugh (Linny otp)! If you were dancing with Fred he would jokingly try to serenade you full well knowing that he can’t sing for shit. It’ll be charming and you’ll laugh tho Fred best boy !!!!

i’m yours- Isabel LaRose

Peak sexual tension edit audio. Bro i’d kill to be on the floor black out drunk dancing with the twins. Self explanatory. Go listen to it and just imagine. CLOSE YOUR EYES AND IMAGINE.

[isabelguerra]

you ran the wizard au right? i remembered i used to love the worldbuilding!!!! and the fic series (both if them) were sooo fun, if you ever wrote more i know id read it 👉👈…. so um i know there was a triwiz tournament year, did u ever come up with outfits for the yule ball? i love fashion and am really interested in hearing what you’d have everyone wear haha. thank you for answering!!!

SIGH. yeah that was me i ran the hogwarts au. i cannot run from my past i just gotta embrace it. anyway im super touched to hear u liked my au… my feelings around it are super conflicted but even though i dont talk abt it much it was really sweet hearing how much you liked it. so yes. yes i did come up with yule ball outfits, for the triwizard tournament arc in their 6th year, which i will share for u bc u asked so sweet 

first off: my biggest gripe with yule in canon was how boring it was. these are fucking wizards. i was not going to let that shit get away with black robed suits and prom dresses i wanted full ass met gala-level Extra, while still staying faithful to the characters tastes and personalities. so i ended up looking at a bunch of runway couture! heres what i came up with: 

isabel, as the heir to the prestigious guerra family name, quidditch captain, brightest witch of their year, and max (hogwarts champion)’s date (they went together for appearances as bffs and bc neither of them got actual dates), had a lot of pressure on her shoulders socially. i wanted her 2 have something she could feel natural in but a little restricted by, as she likely had her dress chosen for her rather than chose it herself. so she likes it but it reflects her wizarding world status more than her actual personality. it also goes 2 be said that the night before yule she stayed up hand folding a bunch of paper cranes and butterflies for her dress that would fly around her all night. loved Teuta Matoshi, Joanne Flemming bridal, and vintage Costarellos designs 4 her

max was hogwarts champion that year obviously which means he had to have the most swag out of anyone. obviously. i was super into butch lesbian max when i made this so his inspos were primarily womens suits. he was the only one i let have a black outfit bc i cant see him being super fashionably flashy. vibe i went for was ‘shiny goth swag’, which Isabel Marant SS2020 and D&G pre-Fall 2020 really hit the nail on the head

ed was probably the most fun+ easiest. i just dressed them weird. also idk if i mentioned this but ed and rj went to yule together lol? #nonbinaryswag. my fav look for them was #1, D&G Spring RTW 2020. i love that shiny suit. i do also think he’d fuck it up in the dress at the end though

isaac i went so ridiculous with isaac you know he’d be so extra. Balmain FW2016 really pulled through with the velvet fabrics, squared shoulders, and gold accents. my other looks were Louis Vuitton Fall 2020, which were a bit sillier but i still loved for him

spender fucks it up in a chadwick boseman met gala 2018. he does not pull it off as well but what can u do 

EXTRAS bc idk if u just meant outfits for Just the main cast or for everyone. so here’s some bonus outfits for other cast members :-)

johnny is one of the few muggle-born wizards i chose from the cast, so his outfit would’ve reflected that slight displacement and more attunement to the human world. i loved 2 joke w my friends that getting johnny in ANY fancy outfit would be hard, and even if u could get him in one he’s still wear his iconic ratty leather jacket over his nice clothes anyway. so johnny got two pics: one from Balenciaga Spring 2018 (love the dorky high waisted pants and patterned red dress shirt combo), and another from Coach Spring 2017 (love the jacket). he also deffo charmed his hair to Literally Be On Fire until one of the professors told him to put it out. he also let loose a racoon in the venue while nobody was looking.

stephen 100% hamish bowles met gala no further comment

rj showed up w/ ed looking like this

From December 17, 2020:

I REALLY MISSED AN OPPORTUNITY.

GINNY AND LUCY SHOULD HAVE DANCED AT THE YULE BALL.

IT WOULD HAVE BEEN HILARIOUS.

[blairdiggory]

Ready for Yule Ball 2020 <3

[esther-ti-designs]

Hey everyone, uhh so I have some tea for you all.

So I met this guy (I’ll refer to him as J) during the last meeting of the quarter for the graphic design club last fall.  Here’s everything that happened between December 5 through February 22.

December 5

Honestly, I haven’t noticed J at any of the previous meetings, but that one night, he just came up to me out of the blue and complimented me on my cozy winter gear.

So J and I happened to be taking Intro to Design that quarter and we talked about our group projects for the class, which we just turned in earlier that day (I had just pulled two consecutive all-nighters and had just taken a 3-hour nap prior to the meeting, so I was very sleep deprived at this point).  We continued our conversation while walking down some stairs and outside the building, and he asked me about other clubs that I’m involved in, to which I told him that I’m the secretary and Head of Hufflepuff for the Harry Potter Alliance (HPA) and that I’m also in the ballroom dance club.  He seemed very interested in HPA.  He mentioned that he played second violin in the video game orchestra (VGO) and that they were having a quarterly concert that weekend.  A friend in HPA had promoed the VGO concert the night before, but I wasn’t really interested, as I had no knowledge of video game music.  J and I exchanged Instagram handles and later that night, I answered all of his questions about HPA.  Then on Sunday, sort of at the last minute, I found out that a few friends from HPA were going to the VGO concert and I went along because $5 for a concert is not bad, and I haven’t been to an orchestra performance in a while.  The concert was so much better than I expected!

December 9

Finals week just started and J randomly asked if I was studying on campus 👀

December 11

We met up at a boba shop near my apartment to study for the Intro to Design final (it was raining pretty hard and J refused to have me bike out to campus in the rain).  We studied off a Quizlet set for about 3 hours until my laptop’s battery was running low, and then we talked for another couple hours!  It turns out we have a lot in common!  We’re both only children, 22 years old, left-handed, design majors (J is actually a design and managerial economics double major), and we play the violin (I used to play violin and cello, but I digress).  Oh and we both have an iNTeResTinG injury story haha.  Then, before we went our separate ways, he gave me a one-armed hug, which I couldn’t reciprocate because I had my arms full with a cup of boba and my umbrella.

December 12

J DM’ed me out of the blue asking for my Spotify wrapped up.  I normally don’t give in to trends easily, and this was something I wasn’t really interested in sharing with the entire world, but I shared it with him anyways (Spoiler: It’s mostly Game of Thrones soundtracks, Taylor Swift, and BTS).  Despite being an orchestra nerd, I find it really difficult keeping up with popular music, and my musical taste stays fairly consistent even several years later.  I was kind of expecting him to laugh at my musical taste, but he actually complimented me for liking dramatic tv/film soundtracks.  And then we arranged another study session right before the design final.

December 13

The Intro to Design final was supposed to be 50 questions, all multiple-choice, no trick questions.  It was supposed to be really easy, and I thought we got almost everything down at the previous study session.  So why were we having another study session right before the exam?  I thought either he really wanted an A in the class, or he wanted to see me again before we went on winter break.  Right before going in for the exam, he asked if I wanted to meet up again for a “post-final celebration” when we were done with the exam.  Okay, now I was really starting to think he wanted to spend some more time with me before winter break 👀

So after the design final, we walked down to one of two boba shops on the edge of campus and downtown.  We both ordered our drinks, he got some popcorn chicken, and we talked for four hours!  I can’t remember everything we talked about, but time really flew by.  And then, before we went home, he gave me a one-armed hug again.

December 14

I had plans to fly home to LA today.  I had spent the previous night cleaning my apartment and packing stuff (I managed to forget to bring a pair of sneakers because, for some reason, dumbass me decided to wear heeled boots to the airport because ~fashion~).  I was sitting in the airport, about to board the plane, when I got a message from J.  He remembered that I was flying that day and was asking if I got home safely.  Aww he actually cares.  I told him that I would be boarding soon and will be offline for the next couple hours.  And then I updated him when I got off the plane, when my parents picked me up at LAX, while we sat in the typical LA traffic, until we all made it home.

December 15 - January 5

Over the next few weeks of winter break, we messaged each other a couple times every day.  We shared pictures of the holiday decorations in our home, and I shared pictures and video clips of my pet bunny too.  On Chistmas Eve, he asked if I had any plans, to which I told him we were going out for dinner to celebrate my mom’s birthday.  He wished my mom happy birthday and I passed the birthday wishes to my mom. “Hey mom, my friend says happy birthday.” “Thank you — who???” And I had to tell my mom about J (whoops).  Her judgmental ass was not exactly happy to hear that J is a Caucasian dude from yeehaw country, and after showing her J’s Instagram feed, she was not a fan of his art style smh.  Anyways, the day I was coming back to Davis, J was like AHHHH you’re back!!!!!!!  Just pure excitement 💖

January 9 - 16

We met up at yet another boba shop after the first week of classes.  Our meeting was shorter than all our previous meetings, because I had to bike back to give an apartment tour later that afternoon.  Two weeks into the winter quarter, we met after our design studio classes and walked to an HPA meeting together.  We also went to a graphic design club meeting together, after which he offered to drive me home so that I wouldn’t have to bike with the cold wind on my face.  I trusted J at this point, so I gratefully accepted.  I think my trust in him went up at least 10 times in this moment, because J managed to secure my small and heavy bike to the bike rack on the back of his car, which already had his bike strapped in.  After dropping me off at my apartment, he invited me out for dinner that weekend (it was also MLK weekend).

January 18

J picked me up at 7.  The restaurant he chose was hella ~ f a n c y ~.  It was an Italian restaurant downtown with dim lighting and pasta priced at $13 - $16.  He said he didn’t know the place would be that fancy and that he trusted Yelp’s description of “casual Italian.”  I told a friend about our sort-of-date night and she thinks J picked a date-y restaurant on purpose 👀  Oh and my mom went the extra mile of writing down J’s name, the place we were going to, and I was to call home at 10 PM (I ended up getting back and called an hour early).

February 14 - Valentine’s Day ❤️

Unfortunately, J never came to another HPA meeting because the campus radio station, KDVS, holds meetings at the same time, and he’s trying to get a job with them.  And we don’t really see each other very often because design classes are usually 3-hours long and J is really busy with 5 classes.  But J has been super excited about Yule Ball ever since he met me.  J came over while I was tabling for ticket sales.  He mentioned that VGO was going to see Sonic that night, and invited me to hang with VGO.  Let me tell you, it was quite an experience and definitely not the typical Valentine’s Day date.

We pulled into a Sonic drive-in for dinner (because gotta get in that Sonic mood lol).  A girl introduced herself as D (name altered to protect identity, of course).  She clearly has some sort of leadership role in the group because everyone pays attention to her, but she constantly makes jokes about being everyone’s daddy.  The jokes are so vulgar and obscene.  It was like weirdest video game nerd and band kid hybrid (J later tells me she’s a violinist.  What?!  Orchestra people are usually super chill lol).  After dinner, we get in our cars and head down the street to the movie theater.  The VGO had reserved seats in Row J.  J and I had just booked our tickets several hours earlier and we were in Row F.  Throughout the movie, someone in the theater yelled at every pivotal moment (including, yes, that Tails reveal in the post credits).  J thoroughly enjoyed the movie and laughed along with whomever was yelling behind us, while I knew absolutely nothing going into it, except that Sonic is a blue hedgehog that can run super fast.  J also gave one additional bit of info before the movie: Sonic really likes chili corn dogs for some strange reason???

So that’s how my Valentine’s Day went lol

February 18

J came by around 3 in the afternoon, right before we were going to pack up for the day, and purchased a Yule Ball ticket.  He’s obviously very excited to go to Yule Ball with me but he says he doesn’t know how to dance.  I told him we have a waltz lesson planned.  He’s like aww and says he wants me to personally teach him (my heart 💕).  And as always, he gave me a hug before leaving to go to class.  Recently, I noticed that J has been giving full hugs instead of his usual one-armed hugs, though it depends on the situation.

February 22

✨❄️ Y u l e   B a l l ❄️✨

J and I arrived separately at Yule Ball because I had to help set up the venue for the event and I had spent the entire day working on an Azkaban wanted poster prop and literally finished it two hours before our meeting time for setting up the venue.  The dance was supposed to start at 7 PM and J got there early enough to help me out with last-minute decorations.  I had signed up to be in charge of the photobooth from 7 to 7:30, but no one came for pictures during that 30-minute period, so I was free for the rest of the night.  J and I had a fantastic time admiring the detailwork in the decorations around the venue and laughing and dancing to the weird selection of 2000s music.  J did pretty okay with learning waltz basics and I gave him tips here and there on standing in closed frame, balance, the slight tension in the left hand, etc.

Sometime towards the end of the night, my ballroom friend pulled me aside for a bathroom chat and asked if we’re dating.  I don’t know???  We haven’t decided to call it official so ??

After helping clean up everything at the end of the night, J dropped off a friend and right before turning to drop me off (I live across the street from that friend), he remembered that I hadn’t had actual food all day prior to Yule Ball (aww he actually cares, and he probably wanted some extra time with me even though my apartment was right there).  So we went downtown for (a very late) dinner.  While we chatted over food and boba, our conversation drifted towards soundtrack music and I mentioned The Theory of Everything soundtrack, my favorite soundtrack besides Game of Thrones.  J immediately searched up The Theory of Everything soundtrack album and streamed it on the way home (that’s some serious dedication right there), and he liked it!

Oh and I forgot to mention that J forgot to bring a jacket and I had a very warm scarf and coat, so we held onto each other with a one-armed hug while we walked to his car.  I really love his hugs, one-armed or full hugs.

I usually post a picture from Yule Ball every year so here’s this year’s!  Yep, that’s J.  And we’re both Ravenclaws :)

I’ll end this post here, so I don’t end up with a romance novel in a single post lol

Here’s Hermione Granger in her dress from Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire movie, which is my favourite outfit of hers in the movie series.

Yule Ball- Draco Malfoy (1)

Pairing: Draco Malfoy x Reader

Characters: Draco Malfoy, Argus Filch

Warnings: N/A

Request: Anon: “I have a Harry potter one shot request. It takes place during The Goblet of Fire. Y/N is a Gryffindor who loses a bet/draft/draw and has to attend the Yule Ball with Draco Malfoy. The drama is they liked each other in first year after Y/N saved him from an acromantula. But Lucius made Draco drop Y/N because shes close with the Weasleys and a half blood. There's a lot of tension between Draco and Y/N. I know its detailed but i'd like to see it come to life.”

Word Count: 685

Author: Hannah

Sometimes you regretted being friends with the Weasley twins, not because they weren’t good friends to you but mainly because they liked to scheme against you.

You could’ve sworn that they always had something going that would either meddle in your schoolwork or meddle in your personal life.

Most recently they’d come up with an idea for a bet, which was that you couldn’t prank Filch faster than they could – if you lost, you’d have to ask Draco Malfoy to the Yule Ball but if they lost, they had to go with each other and both wearing dresses.

You were confused when their wager was that you’d have to ask Draco to the ball, considering you’d not spoken to Draco properly since your third year, but seeing them both in dresses was something you just couldn’t pass up.

Your prank on Filch had been planned for later that afternoon but it had all been ruined when just after charms class Filch came running down the corridor with bright blue hair.

“My hair! My hair!” he yelled as he ran past you all.

And you just knew you’d lost the bet, meaning you had to swallow your pride and end the silent treatment that had been going on between you and Draco.

The two of you had met in your first year initially, like all first years did, but when you’d been on a walk around the black lake you had spotted Draco stood deadly still staring at something in front of him. When you got over to him you realised that it was a juvenile acromantula staring right back at him, as if waiting for him to do something.

After a few whispered exchanges you had managed to distract the acromantula by throwing something behind it, so it turned and scurried off in search of what you’d thrown, leaving you and Draco to run off. Since then, the two of you were close, despite being in rival houses, and if you were honest, you’d grown to have a pretty big crush on him.

However almost a year ago, just after Christmas of your third year, Draco went totally cold on you and had barely spoken to you ever since. Of course, you had tried writing to him, but your owl always returned without a reply, you had even sent him his birthday present, but you never received a reply for that either. All you received was a rose and a small note on your birthday, which you assumed to be from Draco, and it warmed your heart but when you tried to speak to him about it, he’d ignored you.

The two of you had given each other the silent treatment ever since, acting as if you never knew each other but every time you saw him around Hogwarts you just wanted to hug him and tell him how you felt.

Knowing you’d lost your bet with the twins you sought out Draco, after Filch had ran off with his blue hair, and found him heading towards the library.

“Draco!” you called out to him, running to catch up, but he didn’t turn around. “Draco please!”

At you calling his name for the second time he stopped walking and turned to face you. “What do you want Y/L/N?”

Sighing, you swallowed your pride and looked him in the eye. “I wanted to ask if you’d like to go to the Yule Ball with me?”

He stayed silent for a few moments whilst looking at you in pure shock.

His silence made you uncomfortable, so you quickly tried to cover your back. “Unless you’ve already got someone to go with, I wouldn’t want to-“

“No!” he interrupted you in a very un-Draco fashion. “I mean, no, no one has asked me yet,” he clarified and then crossed his arms, looking at you with a masked expression. “Yes, I’ll go with you Y/L/N, just don’t embarrass me with the dancing, yes?”

And with that he stalked off, heading back in the direction of the library, whilst you were left stunned at the fact he had said yes.
