JK Rowling: I wanted Harry to end up in a relationship that paralleled jily
JK Rowling: anyway hereβs the scene I wrote of lily meeting james for the first time which parallels harry meeting draco for the first time and during which James repeats some of draco's dialogue nearly verbatim in a presumably intentional callback
Someone has probably already pointed it out, but I absolutely love the detail of how Hades is touching Persephone, but his other hand, the one next to Zagreus is just kind of there, not entirely making contact. It shows really well that even though their relationship and things between them are better they're still not perfect (and probably never will be)
i will never not be feral about the fact that harry watches draco so much that we know almost as much about him as about harry himself. we know his fears and his background, the names of his family members and what kind of pet he has, his talents and his weaknesses, what he likes to eat and who his friends are, how he looks when he's angry and when he's afraid. we know more about draco than we do about characters harry is far friendlier with because harry can never look away from him.
Achilles & Patroclus for Valentines ππ¨ββ€οΈβπβπ¨βοΈ
This piece is set during the Trojan War, in Achillesβ tent. The lovers are spending a relaxing moment alone together on their bed coming up with new melodies on their lyre. In my mind, this scene is early into the war, where everyoneβs still living in canvas tents, and spirits are still high.
