A continuation (or prequel?) of the image I shared yesterday of unnamed chubby-cheeked Granger-Malfoy child and her best friend Crookshanks. (He may be her best friend, but she is most certainly not his.) And oops I now have numerous rich headcanons of the G-M kids and their favourite long-suffering familiar.
I had to google at what age children develop different speech sounds to figure out how a three year old might say “Crookshanks”

Microfic May 2024
We are back, folks! Join us for our best and biggest year of microfics ever!! Microfic May is an open daily prompt challenge in which participants write a microfic a day in May. Here's the scoop for 2024!
We define microfics as works of fiction that are 50 words or less. However, this limit is merely a suggestion. We accept all lengths!
Open to all HP characters, ships, ratings, topics, and genres (as long as works are tagged and spoilered appropriately).
Participants must be age 18+ and follow DLDR, SALS, and YKINMKATO. (What does this mean?)
All prompts are optional, can be skipped, switched around, or combined. Just have fun and write!
For an extra challenge, try one of our optional ‘Weekly Challenges’ along with the day’s prompt.
To submit a work, add it to our collection on AO3 Microfic May 2024 or mention us on Tumblr @microficmay AND tag #microficmay2024.
Check the Info and FAQ pages for more info! (if the links aren’t working on mobile, try here)

So today I heard this song:
Don't Let The Sun Catch You Crying
you know, like these lyrics right here:
And you know what? That's right! It's a song about heartache and break-ups - see?
And we all know who LOVES melancholic ballads about heartache and break-ups? That's right! This little monkey right here:
(I mean maybe I'm nuts but I can hear Don't Let The Sun Catch You Crying in Mirrorball and Body Paint alike...just the vibe and the melody and the style of singing - it's a very Alex song)
