Oda - 23 - London - This blog consists of everything I find fascinating and love about this world; Doctor Who, Supernatural, Harry Potter, Sherlock, Teen Wolf, and so much more. Enjoy lovelies!
im sorry what do you mean harry potter is an auror you must be mistaken don’t you mean professor potter who loves and cares and treats his students kindly and with respect
don’t you mean professor potter who has tea every week with professor longbottom and every time someone goes “but sir, don’t you think he’s…kind of strange?” harry just smiles and says “i think we all are.”
don’t you mean professor potter who has stashes of chocolate he gives out if you ask and who never, ever, gets angry, except for the times he sees bruises on a kid’s arm after winter break and storms off to see the headmaster about the kid’s parents
don’t you mean professor potter who is known for being loyal to gryffindor to the end, but still congtatulates the other houses when they win because he knows that they’re all just kids and that it really doesn’t matter at the end of the day
don’t you mean professor potter who is known for being fun and kind and happy and everyone knows the stories, the first years whisper, and the fifth years just shrug because after a while, he stops being the boy who defeated voldemort and he becomes the professor who tells silly jokes and constantly tells stories about what he and the Minister of Magic, Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley, a quidditch reporter, used to get up to
don’t you mean Harry Potter, a boy who was born into a fight he didn’t want, turning his wand into a quill and teaching future generations of students kindness and decency and unwavering strength
I’d like to add to that penultimate point that Harry absolutely tells tons of stories about him, Ron and Hermione at Hogwarts, but none of them are about fighting Death-Eaters or facing Voldemort.
Like, that stuff is not even mentioned in passing. Kids in Harry’s classes get stories like, The Time He Played In His First Quidditch Match And Nearly Swallowed The Bloody Snitch. (Usually told to any First Years who are nervous about flying for the first time, or any Quidditch team members— of any House— who are worried about messing up on the pitch. “At least you won’t look as stupid as I did”, says The Famous Harry Potter.)
Or, The Time When He And His Friends Started An Underground Defence Club Because Their Teacher Was Crap. (The exact role that Professor Potter played in the club is left deliberately vague, as is the reason why it was so important to learn defence.)
The Time He And Award Winning Quidditch Reporter Ron Weasley Flew A Car To School In Second Year, The Time He Totally Fucked Up On His First Date (useful for dealing with older students who are having troubles with their own love lives— the story usually gets a laugh at least), or even The Time He Had To Attend The Funeral Of A Giant Spider (no mention of any ulterior motives for going there that day).
If you just heard the stories, you’d have no idea that Professor Potter ever fought in a war. In fact, by the time he’s been teaching a few decades, most of his students don’t.
Or, rather, they know who Voldemort was, and that The Famous Harry Potter fought against him, but they all sort of assume that that stuff happened later. Professor Potter went to school with his friends and had all these wacky adventures (did you know that he once fell off his broom and had all the bones spelled out of his arm? Or that he and his friends used to sneak into Hogsmeade through secret tunnels?) and then later on, after he left school, he volunteered to fight in the war.
Fifth Year History of Magic, when they first cover the details of the Second Wizarding War, is always interesting. When students realise that all this stuff was happening while Professor Potter was still at school, they always look shocked and whisper to each other, asking why he never talks about this when he’s telling them about his school days. Then, at the end of the lesson, The Famous Harry Potter co es in to do his annual Talk about the War. And, afterwards, nobody wonders why he never brought it up before.
Most people agree that his stories are more fun without it.
Roy Mustang is soooo lucky Ed didn’t end up taller than him. He was playing a fucking roulette starting a war of heights with a literal child. That kid could have ended up six feet tall or anything else above Roy’s itself unimpressive height, and then Roy would never have heard the end of it.
It´s been a while since the last one, but between the job and then the vacations I wasn´t around my tablet.
Anyways, here´s Elend Venture from the Mistborn saga, from the first book specifically, I made sketches of him in the other books but I prefer how this one turns out.
It is international language week at my school. This morning a girl who is fluent recited the Pledge of Allegiance in Arabic. Everyone freaked out. Some people loved it, but more hated it. Saying that the pledge should only be spoken in English because “this is America not the Middle East” and now our principal just announced that we are no longer allowed to recite the Pledge of Allegiance in anything besides English at our high school. In the hallway I passed the girl who spoke the pledge. She was sobbing. This is to anyone who says that America is a post-racism world. Reblog the shit out of this. Get this known
I drew Kaladin from the Stormlight Archive! I actually made it a gif to make his eyes glow more, but tumblr ruined the quality so I’ll just post it as a still image I guess.
the most iconic moment in musical history is during a very potter musical when Voldemort jumps out of the cauldron and takes the first step and you hear that he’s wearing tap shoes and you just Know what’s coming
