microfic - bella killing sirius 🥰 | 1.5k words | warnings for um. death. obviously. but also for confusing narrative style ❤️
for the light of my life @quillkiller on this most auspicious day
Bellatrix laughs as Andy - the woman who looks like Andy, except for the purple hair, and the dirty blood - falls backwards away from her. She’s never going to get into the Duelling Club at Hogwarts if she keeps leaving her left side open like that; she’s lucky she has Bellatrix there to teach her.
The woman - her sister, blood-traitor, spawn of a mudblood, fighting on the side of the Order - doesn’t get back up again, limp body tumbling down the steep, stone steps. Bellatrix hasn’t lost a duel since she was thirteen, she holds the Duelling Club record for most consecutive wins - she’s the best person that Andy could have come to for help - she wasn’t going to be beaten by some filthy Auror brat.
Turning away from the unmoving body, Bellatrix runs deeper into the fray, moving towards the raised dais with its stone archway. It’s chaos, flashes of spellfire shooting across the room in all directions, red, purple, white, green, shouts and crashes and explosions as spells miss and damage the room, or as they hit their mark and damage the enemy.
She deflects a curse on instinct, swinging around to face the direction it had come from - a familiar face, her baby cousin - “Bella, will you duel me now?” - a traitor and a coward and unworthy of the name of Black.
Bellatrix returns fire. She’ll go easy on him, because Sirius is just a boy, mock-duelling with a borrowed wand and the small repertoire of spells that he had learned from her or from his parents, but he had always been quick on his feet, good at skipping out of the line of fire - she would make a proper duellist of him yet. She should kill him, for having everything and for running away from it, for turning against her, against his family, cursing their name then having the audacity to use the spells that she had taught him to fight for the wrong side of the war.
It’s the first time that she's seen him since he was disowned, in the middle of Diagon Alley, fighting with the Order of the Phoenix, and she should kill him. It’s the Yule holidays of her seventh year at Hogwarts, Sirius is nine and determinedly dodging her spells, one of their favourite games. They’re both somewhere else, screams and despair and a spinning, ungraspable whirlpool of memories, standing on the raised stone dais now, close enough to hear the whispers from the tattered veil hanging in the archway - soft, insidious, beneath the clamour of the battle.
Sirius throws a spell back at her, bouncing on the balls of his feet, “Hello cousin.”
Bellatrix grins as she dodges - Sirius is always so energetic, so eager to fight with her in a way that even Andromeda never is, let alone Narcissa or Regulus - so desperate to draw her blood, the same blood that runs through his veins, the same blood that he had forsaken, singling her out on any battlefield in the same way that she always did with him. He had run from everything that she had ever wanted - the Black heirship and the power, the esteem, which that entailed - as if it was nothing, as if she didn’t dream about commanding that level of respect, or awe, or fear, as if she hadn’t been scrambling every day of her life to try and get as close to it as she could. Sirius had run away from it, run away from her, and now he was a part of the Order of the Phoenix and she should kill him. She could kill him, the Black Heir, laughing as he narrowly avoids getting hit with a stupefy - he’s only nine, it’s not like he could really defend himself if she started firing off some of the more lethal spells she knew.
She had taught him how to perform the severing charm just the day before, lending him her wand - walnut and dragon heartstring just like the one that had chosen him when he turned eleven - he’s using Cissy’s today, struggling a little against it’s unicorn hair core, mostly relying on his ability to jump out of the trajectory of spells.
The two of them are volleying spells back and forth - ones that she had taught him and ones that the Dark Lord had taught her and ones that he had learnt without her somewhere - dodging or shielding or deflecting, spells barely grazing each other, she always knew that he would make a fine duellist - she had made him into one. They duel like this every time they see each other, during her holidays from Hogwarts, then during his holidays from Hogwarts; she had watched Sirius turn into a threat - she had taught him how to be a threat.
Bellatrix laughs as he manages to shoot off the severing charm that she had taught him - three different lethal curses in quick succession, a determined kind of acrimony about him, not surprised to see her fighting with the death eaters, in the same way that she isn’t really surprised to see him with the Order. She lets it hit her - blocks them all with a complicated shielding charm and throws back a confringo that explodes the cobblestones beneath his feet - still laughing as he cheers about how he’s fatally wounded her, feeling a sting from the shallow cut on her arm - he’s determined as ever but there’s less anger now; he’s playful, grinning when a curse singes the ends of his hair.
She knows she shouldn’t kill him - she isn’t sure if she could kill him anymore, he’s going toe to toe with her in a way that he’d never been able to when they were kids - she doesn’t think she really wants to kill him, her favourite cousin, more just the things that he represents, the signet ring on his finger that gives him an authority, aged nine, that she doesn’t have, can’t have, at nearly double his age - she thinks she wants to kill him now, though, now that he’s betrayed her, found a new family of mudbloods and blood-traitors and abandoned the role that she’s always craved. Bellatrix fires a stunner at him - puts up a hasty shield against his entrail-expelling curse, another one that she had taught him - the two of them laugh as he ducks it, the red light whizzing over his head - “Come on, you can do better than that!”
It’s loud, cacophonous with the battle raging all around them - blood on the cobblestones of Diagon Alley, some of it hers, some of it his - Cissy’s complaining that she’s bored and wants to go outside - the whispers emanating from the crumbling stone archway are getting louder, seeping their way into Bellatrix’s head - and Sirius’ voice rings in her ears, echoes around the room.
She flings another spell at him, grinning as she watches him determinedly move through the wand movements for diffindo again - he laughs as she stumbles, as her shield collapses under the force of his reducto, as he gains the upper hand - concentrating on pushing his magic through Cissy’s wand, not paying close enough attention to the spell she’s just cast - Sirius deflects the curses she hurls at him, sends a barrage of spells back at her - he’s laughing, cocky as always, as her spell hurtles directly towards him.
It hits him right in the middle of his chest.
It’s quiet, suddenly.
Quiet as Sirius’s laughter cuts off. As his eyes widen in shock. As he falls backwards, slowly, as if some invisible weight were making him heavy, as if some invisible force were gently lifting him away. She looks at him and his face is gaunt, an underlying emaciation that no amount of hearty meals can hide, she sees the same whenever she looks in a mirror, right down to the tired, but ever determined glint in silver-grey eyes.
Bellatrix watches Sirius sink into the tattered veil - watches him fall to the floor of the duelling room in Grimmauld Place, for a second she imagines that he might be dead, what it would feel like to kill him - watches the grim smile on his face as one of his spells meets its target and her vision goes black - the veil flutters, those insidious whispers seem to pause for a moment, then rise to a roaring crescendo as his body disappears.
She screams along with them, triumphant - she hasn’t lost a duel since she was thirteen, Sirius has never once beaten her, always ending their duels on the floor - she’s killed Sirius Black, and everything that he represents, even if he had spurned the signet ring and the esteem that came with it. Bellatrix walks across the room to enervate him - wakes up in Malfoy Manor, Cissy leaning over her and asking if it was true that Sirius was a part of the Order now, if he had really beaten her in a duel - turns away from the whispers and the archway and the duel that she had won, skipping back up the stone steps, laughing as she hops over Andy’s - the mudblood’s - body.

I’m fond of the idea that “there are no muggleborn wixen in slytherin” is a cover for them to smuggle new blood into nearly extinct lines and do last minute adoptions.
“Oh Monroe? Yes turns out she’s a descendant of the Gamp line, just had a squib ancestor. We reached out to her great grandmother and they’re willing to teach her the family magic and all, who knows, she might even inherit heirship 🤷”
“See I knew she couldn’t be muggleborn, she’s just got too much innate sense for magic, of course she’s from a pureblood line. Unfortunate she’s on a squib branch but hey, better a squib descendant than an extinct line, right?”
“Hey no one can say Slytherin isn’t good at ancestry, we triple and quadruple check rare family records until we find why you ended up in green while claiming muggle ancestry.”
Literally just a whole underground ancestry revivalist and tradition preservation movement centered around smuggling muggleborns into proper wizarding houses. I think it’s such a fun idea that could be crack or could be like a whole political and legal adventure.
“Oh shit we have THREE eleven year olds who need wizarding last names. WHOS GREAT AUNT WANTS TO TUTOR A CHILD. This one’s good at astronomy, and is interested in runes, the second is super hyped about quidditch and charms, and the third is a little slow but has great intuition for dueling and lying.”

Angels/demons vs humans let's go
((For clarity: I've referred to them as angels and demons because those are the names we commonly call them. It's important to note that "angel" means "messenger," and the idea of angels and demons that we're most familiar with is Platonic. In the Bible, our spiritual enemy is called "the satan," which means "the adversary." We know that the satan is not just one, but many demons, who hate humanity and try to keep us away from God; and that they used to be with God in the way that the creatures we call "angels" are, because they're the same kind of creature, which is "elohim." Therefore, I've put them into one category for the sake of this "Venn diagram," and will henceforth refer to them under the collective name "spiritual beings.")) (please keep in mind that I am simplifying things quite a bit, because 1. I'm not an expert, and 2. I have work in four hours.)
Ok first let's talk about our similarities:
- made in God's image (aka we're God's kids)
- have the ability to influence others on a spiritual level (truth vs lie, gentleness vs wrath, etc.)
- can be sent from God for an angelic purpose (according to the above-mentioned definition)
- have the capacity for good or evil
- are spiritual beings with form
- are involved in the spiritual war (by virtue of choosing good or evil)
- were made to glorify God
- are called gods and have authority over things on Earth; also have hierarchies amongst ourselves
- cannot easily exist in the physical world without a body to inhabit (2Cor 5:6-8; Mark 5:1-13)
The ways in which humans are unique:
- were given physical bodies and live in the physical world. These bodies are us, and belong solely to us, but also function as houses which we can share with other spirits (note: God has appeared to us in visions in the same form as He's given us, though far more radiant, and became a human to save us)
- can accept co-heirship with Christ, who is above all spiritual beings; though that does include us, it appears to mean that we'll also be over the other spiritual beings (and in fact, we can exercise this authority as an ambassador would even while our bodies are alive, as long as our spirits are) (also this seems to mirror the way Jacob was Isaac's heir instead of Esau, though that's just my brain braining; I'm not sure how much correlation there actually is)
- while our bodies are alive, can still choose whether or not we follow God; this choice appears to be much more flexible than it is for spiritual beings, though it does become irreversible once our bodies die or Jesus returns to bring the new creation
- start our lives spiritually dead because of the Curse (our intended state is fully alive, but we have to choose life)
The ways in which spiritual beings are unique:
- can come in many forms (meaning their specialties appear to have direct correlation with their visual forms: seraphim being healers and fiery snakes with wings; cherubim being throne-carriers and worshippers, with many wings, eyes, and faces, and whose souls are kept within intersecting wheels; demons being described as darkness; etc.)
- in the vein of above, can change forms (taking human shape in multiple recorded places, including other mythologies; a spirit in 1Kings and 2Chron "going out and being a lying spirit," implying that they were not one all the time; etc.)
- are all submitted to God's authority (meaning that though they do have the ability to choose whether they want to continue to be His children, they all fear God.
- In the vein of all above, this choice fundamentally changes them in a way that appears irreversible (this choice to become separate from God contrasts with our choice to become alive from death)
My conclusion: humans are just another kind of elohim, sitting in our own place in the hierarchy and with our own role in this big spiritual war
Ok, that's all I can think of right now. If anyone has any questions or additions, please feel free! Again, I'm not an expert, and I haven't read Enoch, but any opportunity to research is welcome <3
@toytanks my friend, is this what you wanted? Are you happy with the thing you asked for? I give it freely. Eat and be merry.

[ konidela ram charan, he/him, cisgender man ] — was that NARAYANA VOGETI? the THIRTY-SIX year old is a NAVY OFFICER, how exciting to see them this season! rumors have it they are ZEALOUS and GREGARIOUS, but i’ve heard they are AUDACIOUS and DUPLICITOUS as well — maybe that’s why they’ve been called the SEASWEPT. I have even heard that HE SUPPLEMENTS HIS FORTUNE THROUGH LESS THAN LEGITIMATE MEANS —only time will tell.
QUICK FACTS.
NAME: vogeti narayana naidu NICKNAME: nara AGE: thirty-six PLACE OF BIRTH: hyderabad, india GENDER: cisgender man PRONOUNS: he/him ORIENTATION: homosexual RELIGION: hinduism ( vaishnava ) PARENTS: vogeti venkateswara naidu ( diamond merchant ) & raghupathi ramalakshmi ( illustrator ) SIBLINGS vogeti arjuna naidu LANGUAGES: telugu, tamil, english, hindi ( fluent ) portuguese, french, arabic ( conversational ) latin, ancient greek ( competent ) danish, german ( basics ) EDUCATION: private tutoring OCCUPATION: commodore in the royal navy HOBBIES: illustration, linguistics, poetry, history, philosophy LABEL the seaswept
note: telugu family names are in the genitive case, and therefore come first. as such, the family name here is vogeti
PARALLELS.
james fitzjames ( the terror ) connor roy ( succession ) james gatz ( the great gatsby ) henry winter ( the secret history )
BIOGRAPHY.
tl;dr man literally goes to the ends of the earth to escape from his problems. ends up freezing his humanity instead. or whatever is left of it.
aka connor roy if he was the second son
tw for implied unhealthy familial dynamics
born the second son of a fourth, you have always been destined for irrelevancy, and your childhood is naught but confirmation of that simple fact: too timid, too quiet; your nose too stuck in ancient books’ crumbling pages, the smell of old tomes almost like a perfume on your corpus. there’s nothing in you that speaks to some great destiny, the commissioning of some great deed to be recorded in those books you like reading so much. no, what is evident is this: your destiny is to read about life, maybe even to write about it, if you pull the right strings; but to live it ? that was for other people. better people. people who were born into greatness. meaning: people who aren’t you.
heirship never would have suited you, nor would it have suited your father; but what suited you both is the treasure upon treasure unearthed in golconda. it’s a great and terrible thing, to see for your own eyes the twinkling of gems still dusted with detritus; even more terrible to see how it transforms the face of your grandfather, who clutches at it with far more adoration and love than you have ever seen him bestow to his kith and kin.
he looks at your father, ever the most obedient servant, who stayed behind and didn’t even bother making his own fortune as his elder brothers did, content instead to wait upon his father like the most loyal dog. anyway, your grandfather looks at your father, the only one left whom he could still command, and he says you need to go to london.
but i have a wife and two children who have a life here your father does not say. arjuna and narayana have friends here, friends who they will miss your father does not say. you cannot expect me to unroot them and place them in a strange new frontier, just because of your greed your father does not say. your father is not a man who says anything much.
so you turn from vogeti narayana naidu, son of a farmer’s son to vogeti narayana naidu, son of a diamond merchant. you are dressed accordingly. you are trained accordingly. languages and music and arithmetic and philosophy and art and and and. all this and so much more your grandfather tells you, thinking it a blessing. this is your reward for your father’s filial duty.
nevertheless, you are not the heir. whatever expectations that have been placed upon you have been placed upon arjuna tenfold. perhaps, if you were a better man, a man destined for greater things, you might have been able to do something. stop it somehow. took your brother away and sailed the both of you home. but something always stops you, nothing moreso than this: back home, your grandfather yet lives, ready to send you back to the place that isn’t home. so the only thing you learn is this: even home is not safe, perhaps is the most unsafe place of all.
as arjuna’s second, you are expected to be his shadow; but who can cast a shadow where there is no sun? arjuna casts you off like a worn coat, and if you were a better man, you might have fought harder at this turn of events; but you are who you are, and all you are is a drop in an ocean too large for you to comprehend. you are left adrift in this place that you are ill-fitted in. the world is a dizzying place of possibility, and there are far too many options, too many choices, too many lost futures, too many forsaken pasts—
all you know is this: the only good dreams you have are those that involve the sea. the shore offers a certainty of danger that the sea, despite all its rocking embraces, never does. it is uncertain, true, and there have been very many ships and lives lost to that plutonian depths; but what is also true is this: the earth’s dangers are sure and ever-present; that of the sea, but a possibility. it’s a no-brainer: you enlist in the navy the very day you turn thirteen.
you were never destined for greatness, but you have a good head on your shoulders, an even quicker wit; your tutoring in the keeping of accounts gives you a numerical mastery that the royal navy sees and is quick to make use of. they ship you off to the arctic, over and over again, until all that you are, and all that you know, is bitter freezing cold.
WANTED CONNECTIONS.
my boy is a Nerd forced to become a Prep so anyone who would let him geek out over anything nautical would immediately be his favourite people ever
he publishes poetry under a pseudonym but they’re all essentially “epics” of his voyages so like… people who recognise hmmm… you went out to so-so place… and now there’s a poem about so-so place… rlly makes u think!
he is a debate me bro twitter reply guy masquerading as a 19c sailor with extreme daddy issues so talk to him about philosophy/politics/history/etc and you are going to have the most Insufferable conversation ever
an introvert forced to become an extrovert (such tragedy!) so people he’s forced to like. actually talk to. bonus points if it’s about his dad’s diamond business, which he HATES talking about. but still does bc he is nothing if not a good son 💖
i mean. very much. hookups and one night stands bc can u imagine even being in a relationship with this guy? hahahahahah ok but pls do actually give this guy a relationship that didn’t work out and is now like. his green light or whatever
friends. who are like. actual friends and not just people who wanna get some of daddy’s bling bling. he will definitely Not come into ur dwelling place at night pretending to need a drink but all the pubs have kicked him out (do not believe him! no man will turn away the lure of money) when all he just wants is like… disgusting… COMPANIONSHIP
people who are in cahoots with his less than legit ventures. he may hate daddy’s money, but that doesn’t mean he can’t try to make his own!

I have this feeling..
I've been scouring through the OVA's and other stuff a bunch and came up with bunch of pieces here and there. Nothing very concrete and mostly guesswork.
WC spoilers ahead.
The title may be reference to Dr.Kuseno.
The "kuse" in Kuseno sounds exactly like "kusee" (くせー) an impolite form of "kusai" (臭い) that means "stinky" while the "no" has no direct translation (most likely the common Japanese name ending 野 meaning "field").
That's why his name is Dr.Stench in english translations.
I just got this sudden feeling about this particular wordplay in this OVA and how it zoomed in on Genos' ears. Pitch is also a type of field.
"That's "me", Master. That's the note for "me"!"
If y'all remember that there is still an unrevealed, specific function to Genos earrings. And it still hasn't been revealed even in WC, where Kuseno has died.
I have a feeling...that it is a testament.
A voice recorded testament or a holographic one. One that is sealed until the death of Kuseno and Saitama is the trustee in said will and it may only open when Saitama says a key word or make a key sound. Since Kuseno saw Genos as his grandson but he seemingly has no known family of his own, he would have made contingency plans so Genos could inherit his research and stuff, so he could actually continue to remain self-sufficient as a cyborg. Or should have at least, he knows he has enemies.
Question: When did Genos got his piercings?
ONE: After he became a cyborg
Q: Do Genos' piercings have a purpose?
A: They do have a purpose, but it's a secret for now.
Q: Why does Genos wear studs?
A: It's a secret. There are settings for the studs but can't be revealed yet.
Now how could Saitama be able to make a testament with Kuseno to Genos, when Genos has had these earrings on him this whole time and Kuseno barely even knows Saitama?
Simple.
Time travel.
And it'll be all related to the Mad Cyborg, Kuseno and Genos' arch nemesis, I bet. Maybe Saitama's past too.
Wouldn't it be something if Saitama was actually involved in the whole Mad cyborg debacle of the past and was unintentionally responsible for the creation of cyborg Genos in the first place?
That would be some Back to the Future type of shenanigans.
As for why such a testament couldn't just be implemented elsewhere...I imagine it had to be kept secret and safeguarded and in case other physical records of testament got destroyed. Then there may be a reason why it had to be always kept on Genos person, just from its importance alone. But also because it might be contested if Kuseno actually HAS any relatives left.
Who bets Metal Knight, Dr.Bofoi, is a cousin or something and ex-colleague? There's a lot of Dr.Light and Dr.Wily feels in the duo.
Since Kuseno is a parental figure of Genos, he 100% knows by now, that Genos is totally gay for Saitama, no questions asked. It's all Genos ever talks about to Kuseno apparently. Even if he was wrong in this assesment, it would paint that kind of picture certainly.
The concept of the freedom of disposition by will, familiar as it is in modern England and the United States, both generally considered common law systems, is by no means universal. In fact, complete freedom is the exception rather than the rule.[3]: 654 Civil law systems often put some restrictions on the possibilities of disposal; see for example "Forced heirship".
LGBT advocates have pointed to the inheritance rights of spouses as desirable for same-sex couples as well, through same-sex marriage or civil unions. Opponents of such advocacy rebut this claim by pointing to the ability of same-sex couples to disperse their assets by will. Historically, however, it was observed that "[e]ven if a same-sex partner executes a will, there is risk that the survivor will face prejudice in court when disgruntled heirs challenge the will",[4] with courts being more willing to strike down wills leaving property to a same-sex partner on such grounds as incapacity or undue influence.
There is a scene in WC that may be seen in different light with this in mind. When Kuseno asks Saitama to take care of Genos for him.
Kuseno giving his blessing for ther relationship as testator would give this will some legal ground to remain unchallenged in court, in case Genos and Saitama actually ended up together. It may also be a case of forced heirship.
That's a lot to infer from Saitama legit only asking Kuseno to take his shoes off and saying it's nice to meet him. Then he immediately starts commenting about companions because he got emotional.
When every other person always misjudges Saitama at a glance.
And he immediately comes bearing gifts (which he procured despite coming in full battle suit and after receiving distress signal, which makes it seem like he wasn't too worried or in a hurry anyway), saying its a gift for always taking care of Genos.
But how can he say that when Genos always comes to his lab wrecked? Multiple times a day even? Especially after Tournament and Elder Centipede where Saitama definitely WASN'T taking care of Genos?
You'd think that seeing Genos always being wrecked since he got in contact with Saitama, he'd think the opposite. But nah, Saitama on default is "amazing sensei".
Sure, he could have been listening to Genos drone on about Saitama a lot but still...
Kuseno knows something we don't.

Golden Trio Era/Orwell Chess: Gryffindor Edition
Percy Ignatius Weasley: ISTJ-A/Leo/1987-1994/Pure-Blood
Fifth-Year & Sixth-Year Prefect, Head Boy. His favorite classes are Arithmancy and Ancient Runes, citing them as the hardest. He is a stickler for rules, which caused strife between him & Phantomhive twins. But Luciel Phantomhive and him became rather good study pair, often helping each other with memorization and technicalities.
Elizabeth Cordelia Midford: ENFJ-A/Aquarius/1988-1995/Half-Blood
The youngest sibling of the Midford family. Fifth-Year & Sixth-Year Prefect, Head Girl, Gryffindor Beater (Second-Year onward). Her favorite class are Charms and Muggle Studies (fashion, particularly). She is regarded as one of the best duelers—graceful and unrelenting, but she is also quite popular with her affable personality.
Fred Weasley I: ESTP-A/Aries/1989-1996/Pure-Blood
Reserve Gryffindor Beater (Second-Year to Sixth-Year), Gryffindor Beater (Seventh-Year). HIs favorite classes are Charms and Transfiguration with a natural talent for spells. He has a spotty record with homework, but almost all professors note that the ones that are turned in are brilliantly finished.
George Weasley: ENFJ-A/Aries/1989-1996/Pure-Blood
Gryffindor Beater (Second-Year to Seventh-Year). His favorite classes are Potions and Arithmancy. Snape begrudgingly cannot take points from him in class but will always do so when catching the him in the middle of a prank.
Hermione Jean Granger: ISTJ-A/Virgo/1991-1998/Muggle-Born
Fifth-Year & Sixth-Year Prefect. Her favorite classes are Transfiguration and Arithmancy. She was Celaena’s first girl friend and headed several of the projects for the wartime effort: recruitment, magic instruction, and Ministry reconstruction. She was also given the heirship of Gryffindor, unknowingly to her.
Neville Longbottom: ENFJ-T/Leo/1991-1998/Pure-Blood
Head Boy. His favorite classes are Herbology and Astronomy, both relating fairly well to each other. He was another person who led Hogwart’s Army during his Seventh-Year, along with Daphne Greengrass. A type of person who does better under pressure (other than Snape’s attention).
Seamus Finnigan: ENFP-T/Sagittarius/1991-1998/Half-Blood
Only child with rather a haphazardous penchant for pyrotechnics. He enjoys Charms the best, mainly due to the fact of the Confringo & Incendio spell. He led the evacuation during the SWW, adequately trained through Hogwart’s Army.
Dean Thomas: ISFP-A/Taurus/1991-1998/Half-Blood
A middle child, but the only child that could attend Hogwarts. Gryffindor Chaser (Third-Year to Sixth-Year). He doesn’t have a favorite class but hates Potions the most. With proper coaching from Hermione, he was able to draw several intricate runes to protect several sectors in Hogwarts, ultimately leading to their win.
Parvati Patil: INTP-A/Scorpio/1991-1998/Pure-Blood
The younger sibling of the twin. Seventh-Year Prefect. Her favorite class was Divination as she enjoyed going with the flow and the overall ambience. Her discipline coupled with her bravery made her a formidable witch. She was in charge of the First & Second-Years during her Seventh-Year, but she did not evacuate with them.
Lavender Brown: ENTP-A/Pisces/1991-1998/Pure-Blood
Only child to her family. Her favorite classes are Divination and Charms where she staunchly stood up for both Trelawney and Flitwick under Umbridge’s reign. Her and Parvati were a skilled duo together, dealing enormous damage to the other side.
Ginevra Molly Weasley: ISTJ-A/Leo/1992-1999/Pure-Blood
Sixth-Year Prefect, Gryffindor Chaser (Third-Year onward). Her favorite classes are DADA and Charms, using magic defensively and offensively easily. She kept Harry alive during the fight at the Department of Mysteries, becoming his third in dueling after Celaena. Her physical prowess was also acknowledged by Elizabeth Midford, citing strength and agility much like hers.

If Aegon the conqueror was actually competent.
1. Talk to the King of Winter. Before anything else talk to the King of Winter. Establish an alliance. Don’t be an arrogant ass who thinks he needs to be in charge to win this.
2. Establish a base in the North. Targaryens end up with several homes and palaces none of them in the north. This is dumb. Give it a dragon pit, make it the seat of the heir. Hell, establish another Citadel there so there are an abundance of maesters available when the Long night comes. Make it more important than establishing King’s landing.
3. Do not neglect the watch. Make it law that part of the king’s army serves in the watch. Make it law that some of the king’s tax goes to the watch. Make it law that every lord paramount also gives some of their tax to the watch. Make it clear that when the watch calls the realm will answer.
4. Establish clear rules of inheritance. The mess of Targaryen heirship is what dooms their family.
5. Make frequent trips to the wall and beyond. Find out what’s in there. Establish a relationship with the free folk. Find out what they know. Ally with them, make them not the enemy to fight, since apparently you know they aren’t.
6. Do not in any case decide to only share this knowledge with your heir. Tell everyone. Demand that the Maesters at the citadel study it, demand that the king of winter looks into it, go through the records of the watch, anything but keep this information in the family.
#I mean I know that this family is plagued by such Hubris that most Greek heroes would be impressed.#I know that is what gives us a story#But... I'd love to see some competence once in a while.#HOTD Spoilers#Kinda?#Rambling

Heirships
In his commorancy, the illuminary motions their forthcoming
Phlegmbuoyant heirlooms, moored & reposed
Mortal impelled beyond causality
The ordinance streams
Equidistant the churlish refashion
Ulterior pneumatic antiques mercurial agenda peeled
Ruin - the verdict
Coefficient of the loom, slothfoul plethora flourish in disgrace
Blotting dim, entourage of phreqs encompass
Utricles gloat in abeyance
Riddling puce sleet bleaking Fatherland null
Transfusion of the imbued pending
The consumptive dour
Foretastes the misshapen ones
Covetous juncture dilates
Avian Xspectrents encroach
Plasm umbilicus steep an courant
Supinely bled the pupae shed
Tyme fly blown disfigments conclude
The pastures shall never thrive for those who sow
Seepia thee peerless shade

HEIRS OF YPON VS. RICAFORTE
G.R. No. 198680
July 8, 2013
Art. 172. The filiation of legitimate children is established by any of the following:
(1) The record of birth appearing in the civil register or a final judgment; or
(2) An admission of legitimate filiation in a public document or a private handwritten instrument and signed by the parent concerned.
In the absence of the foregoing evidence, the legitimate filiation shall be roved by:
(1) The open and continuous possession of the status of a legitimate child; or
(2) Any other means allowed by the Rules of Court and special laws. (265a, 266a, 267a)
FACTS:
The Ypons sued respondent Ricaforte, also known as "Gaudioso E. Ypon," in an action for cancellation of title and reconveyance with damages (the subject complaint) (Gaudioso). They claimed in their complaint that Magdaleno left certain lots upon his intestate and childless death. To the detriment of the petitioners, who are Magdaleno's collateral relations and successors-in-interest, Gaudioso, who asserted to be the sole heir of Magdaleno, executed an affidavit of self-adjudication and caused the revocation of the aforementioned certificates of title.
In his response, Gaudioso claimed that his certificate of live birth, two letters from the Polytechnic School, and a certified true copy of his passport were proof that he was the legally recognized son of Magdaleno. In addition, he asserted that the petitioners have no legal grounds to sue him, the complaint does not establish a cause of action, and the case is not being brought by the genuine parties-in-interest because there is no evidence that the petitioners have been legally recognized as Magdaleno's heirs.
Due to a lack of a cause of action, RTC dismissed the case. It stated that even though the plaintiffs in the case had established their relationship with Magdaleno in a prior special proceeding for the issuance of letters of administration, this did not mean that they could already be regarded as the decedent's compulsory heirs. On the contrary, Gaudioso had satisfactorily established through the documentary evidence he provided that he is Magdaleno's son and, therefore, his compulsory heir. The Court also refused their move for reconsideration due to the counsel's failure to specify the date on which his Mandatory Continuing Legal Education Certificate of Compliance was issued. Thus, the current petition, which only addresses pure legal issues, was promptly appealed to the Supreme Court.
ISSUE:
Whether or not the RTC’s dismissal of the case on the ground that the subject complaint failed to state a cause of action was proper
RULING:
Yes, because the petitioners in a prior special action for heirship reasons failed to prove their link to Magdaleno.
The general rule is that, rather than in a regular suit to reclaim ownership and/or possession, the identification of the decedent's legitimate heirs must be done in the appropriate special proceeding for that purpose.
A civil action is one in which a party sues another for the enforcement or protection of a right, the prevention or redress of a wrong, while a special proceeding is a remedy in which a party seeks to establish a status, a right, or a specific fact. This definition is found in Section 3, Rule 1 of the 1997 Revised Rules of Court. Since the petitioners in this case are looking to create a status or right, it is blatantly obvious that the declaration of heirship can only be made in a special proceeding.
For practical reasons, there are some exceptions to the general rule. For example, when the parties in a civil case voluntarily submitted the issue of heirship to the trial court and had already provided their evidence therein, and the RTC had subsequently rendered judgment thereon, or when a special proceeding had been started but had been finally closed and terminated and could not be re-opened.
None of the aforementioned exclusions or others of a similar sort seem to apply in this situation.

Typically, your will must be clear on what will happen to a bequest if the beneficiary pre-deceases you. As an example, whether it expires, mosts likely to their children, or goes to another person rather.

Destruction of a Goblin Office
Chapter Three of Lord Thanatos here
~
As soon as Hadrian closed the door, Tom dropped his glamour and flopped, very ungracefully in Hadrian’s opinion, into the wingback chair behind his meticulously organised desk. Running his hand through his chin length chestnut locks, taking and deep breath and turning crimson eyes to the young man in the room, Tom visibly prepared himself for what was undoubtedly going to be a long and difficult conversation.
“How were the Goblins?” he asked with a wary look on his face. Hadrian began to think the Dark Lord needed to channel his inner Gryffindor for this conversation, not that he’d ever say that out loud. He liked all his limbs where they were thank-you-very-much.
Hadrian seated himself in front of the desk, throwing his cloak over the back of the chair. “Now, now Tom. No ‘Hello, Hadrian’ ‘How are you Hadrian?’ ‘Well done in front of my scary minions Hadrian’?” A smirk grew on his face as the Dark Lord scowled. “You mustn’t forget your manners, my dear.”
“Hadrian, I swear. We only have an hour and, horcrux or not, I am not afraid to Crucio you. Please get on with it, I just know I’m not going to like it.”
“Okay, okay. Don’t get your wand in a knot. I walked in to the bank and as soon as they saw me they headed me off to Director Ragnok’s office. Apparently they’ve been sending me letters for 6 years and I haven’t received a single one.” Tom’s eyebrows shot up at the mention of the head of British Gringotts but he stayed silent and motioned for Hadrian to continue.
“Ragnok made me take an inheritance test and well, this is where it gets into the ‘of fucking course this happens to Harry bloody Potter territory’…” At this Hadrian handed Tom a sheet of parchment and motioned for him to read it. “See for yourself, you won’t believe me otherwise.”
Tom looked down and his eyes widened almost immediately.

Contracts:

“I think the old coot’s biggest mistake was he counted on me hating you on my own, purely for killing my parents.” Hadrian said casually once he thought Tom had come out of his shocked state.
“His biggest mistake... no, his biggest mistake was not forgetting to make you hate me! For fucks sake Hades, he might as well have altered your entire personality! And how in Merlin’s name are you still alive? You had 70% of your magical core blocked! I’m going to murder the old fool.”
Magic was whipping around the office, the air heavy with the thickness of the dark magic expressing the Dark Lord’s rage. Hadrian sat in awe for a moment, enjoying the sight of Tom’s addictive magic throughout the room. He wouldn’t say it out loud but the fact that Tom was so worked up over something bad happening to Hadrian warmed his heart a little bit. He did think he should probably stop Tom before he destroyed his office or something though, especially since this wasn’t the worst of the news he received at the bank.
Hadrian reached out with his magic for the link that connected Tom to the horcrux in his scar and sent a wave of calming magic through the bond. “It’s fine Tom, the Goblins put me through a purging ritual as soon as they saw this and put their office back together. They managed to unblock everything and get the potions out of my system and talk me through the creature changes,” he said waving a dismissive hand.
“You destroyed a Goblin office?” Tom asked with a sigh watching Hadrian intently as the younger man attempted to school his sheepish expression into something more befitting of a Lord.
“Ah, well… yeah, maybe I did,” he said nervously. “But they forgave me and we put it back together! No harm done!” Not liking the way this conversation was now going but thankful that it managed to pull Tom out of his rage for a moment.
“That’s not all is it?” the older man asked gravely.
“Not even slightly, darling.” Hadrian said, grinning at the Dark Lord, “our ammunition for destruction only gets better from here.”
“So, the old man was my magical guardian, do you know what that is?” At the shake of the Dark Lord’s head he continued. “No, you probably wouldn’t, I don’t think you had one. Anyway, it’s the person who’s in charge of looking after a minor’s living arrangements, vaults, inheritances and, most importantly in my opinion, making sure the minor knows about the magical world. That they know how to navigate it and are prepared to take over the family when they come of age. Obviously, old Dumbles sucked at being my magical guardian because I had to learn all that shit by myself and didn’t even know about the magical world ‘till I was 11.”
“He named himself the magical guardian of Harry James Potter on November 1st, 1981, before Sirius was arrested I might add, dropped me off at the Dursley’s and walked away with almost complete control of the Potter vaults and seats.” Hadrian could see understanding come to Tom’s face as he figured out where this was going.
“Anyway, using my money, Griphook told me the old coot has been paying himself 1000 galleons a month, the Dursleys 500 galleons a month to ‘condition me’, the Weasley’s 100 galleons a month for ‘looking after me’ in the magical world, Weasel and Granger 100 galleons a month each for being my friends and the Weaselette 50 galleons a month in preparation for being the next Lady Potter.” At this Hadrian rolled his eyes dramatically. “like that would ever happen, i’m gayer than a herd of rainbow unicorns.”
Tom muffled a snort at that. Hadrian heard and counted it as a win.
“When he dropped me at the house of hell, he had my parent’s wills sealed, took control of all of Sirius’ stuff after the heirship passed to me at the end of last year. How he got that one done I don’t know, he has no connection to the Blacks…” Hadrian thought old Dumbles must have had to pull a lot of favours to get that one through and sat with a thoughtful expression on his face until Tom cleared his throat and motioned for him to continue.
“Right, sorry,” he said ignoring the Dark Lord’s exasperated expression. “I listened to both wills and both my parents said I should go to literally anyone in the magical world before that bitch Petunia and her whale of a husband, so there’s another shot at old Dumbles’ good record. Along with condoning the abuse of a magical minor. I was supposed to go to either of my godparents, then Snape, then whatever nice wizarding family the ministry could find for me. Honestly, I think they would have preferred I went to you before the muggles.”
Mirth danced in his emerald eyes as a look of horror, then disgust passed quickly over the Dark Lord’s face. “Nope, nope, nope. I don’t do children. That would not have been good,” Tom said, barely repressing the shudder that threatened to wreck his body at the mere thought of having to look after a child..
Hadrian chuckled, briefly imagining a little kid calling the big bad Dark Lord ‘daddy’ before quickly pushing that thought aside (and the horror that came with it) and continued on with his story.
“Anyway, they left a few things to Snape and the other Marauders but, basically everything went to me.”
“I’ve looked through the Potter vault records. The Goblins have decided they like me so they’re recalling all the gold he took from there with interest. He’s also taken a boatload of books and artefacts from the main Potter vault and distributed them to his minions. Those will be harder to recall but the Goblins said they should be able to get 90% of the stuff back and payment for anything that can’t be returned.”
“Only you Hadrian, could get the Goblins to like you,” Tom said giving Hadrian a look mixed between fondness and exasperation. “Of course I can, old man, i’m nice.” Hadrian said sending a charming smile and a wink to the Dark Lord before a curse could be thrown his way as Tom muttered something about not being that old.

How Will Writing Lead Generation Came into the Trend?
We are frequently gotten some information about the distinction between an enduring force of lawyer and a will. In straightforward terms, it's an immeasurably significant issue. It is an authoritative record that permits individuals you trust to settle on choices for your benefit while you are alive. A
Losing the capacity to Buy Will Writing Leads on choices is the stuff of bad dreams. However, it happens to a considerable lot of us. Also, regularly abruptly. It very well might be brought about by a genuine auto accident or a stroke or an entire pontoon of other frightful things that life tosses at us. If you do lose your intellectual ability.
Many individuals wrongly accept that their will is a private report saw simply by their picked agents and their dry old family specialist behind a paper-flung work area in a book-lined office. This likely could be the situation when the bequest is little. In any case, everything changes if an award of probate is required.
What's mine will be mine and I can pass on it to whomever I need? Goodness nay, nay and threefold nay – as the late, extraordinary Frankie Howard was adept to say. Anybody can challenge a will. However, it is dependent upon a court to determine the result. A living together accomplice passed up a great opportunity in the level.
Barring somebody from your Will ought to be generally direct if you live in England or Wales. In contrast to numerous different nations, there is no constrained heirship here. Be that as it may, it should be done appropriately. In any case, cases might be made in court. It's ideal to remember a proviso for your Will explicitly naming the individual. To cherish an appropriate for the large numbers of carers in England who get support from their Local Council. Interestingly acquaint an obligation with meet carer's qualified Will Writing Leads UK for help and present another grown-up protecting system.
To change how care and backing are subsidized, remembering the production of a cap for care costs which individuals would pay and give everybody significant serenity in shielding them from calamitous expenses.
To improve on the consideration and emotionally supportive network and make an administrative system that aids, not impedes, coordinate consideration so we can accomplish better outcomes for individuals.
To guarantee that individuals requiring care can move between nearby position regions without the dread that their consideration will be intruded. You could possibly as of now know that various neighbourhood specialists effectively offer conceded instalment plans, yet on an optional premise.
Conclusion
To give another lawful Will Writing Lead Generation to everybody to an individual financial plan, which they can get as an immediate instalment if they wish, giving individuals more control, and explaining how individuals will be shielded from their consideration being disturbed if their consideration supplier leaves the business, and presenting new oversight of the suppliers that would be the hardest to supplant if they somehow happened to fizzle.

MC7019_Week10
The book Instagram by Leaver, Highfield, and Abidin (2020) covers all the things about Instagram, from history to cultural impact, with concise writings. Because I only used Instagram for less than one month in 2010, I do not know much about Instagram in every aspect. But, I know Instagram has become daily necessities to communicate with others. This book helps fills the ten years gap to understand an Instagram phenomenon.
The big takeaway from this book is about chapter six (lifespans, p.174-190). Other things like influencers, political activism, and algorithm things are not much different from other social media books and literature. But, I never thought about content controllability for a baby and a deceased person. Instagram users record a person's entire life from birth to death. Before being delivered, parents upload ultrasounds images. Breasting, playing with a baby, all other things are also shared on Instagram. When someone passes away, people grieve and mourn on social media. The book presents the following question. Is it the right thing to upload contents without a baby and a deceased's? I think the question is timely and important question. As Instagram and other social media began at most 15 years ago, the problem is not much serious yet. But, it could be apparent.
For example, let's assume that you are a middle school student and some classmates bully you in school, saying you are very ugly. The villans would find your parents and baby pictures from your parent's Instagram and then share them with all other students with a comment that he initially looked stupid and ugly, and their parent appearance is also ugly. It will be very annoying and stressful. Even though your parents post those contents to share their happiness and harmonious family, the result could be quite disasters. As you post more contents on multiple platforms, it becomes much complex to manage shared content.
In addition, another big question is about how platforms and family members have to deal with the contents of a deceased person. After Molly Russell's suicide partly related to Instagram use, the family request access to the daughter to delete contents, but the platform denied it. However, after GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation), Instagram/Facebook allows family members to choose whether to delete a deceased family member's account or keep it a memorialized account. And the companies voluntarily develop a new system for a user to set legacy contact in case of death. Legacy contacts can delete and lock contents and write a pinned post for your profile and handle basic things. Even though social media gives more control and autonomy to a user after death, we have to think about it more. Is that enough?
What should be done more for data privacy after death? Are there other problems that we did not anticipate before?
I guess that there will be an inheritance problem like copyright and royalty. For example, if a top influencer suddenly dies by a car accident without a will, and its contents are expected to attract many viewings and make profits in the future, is the account inherited property? Who has the heirship? What will happen that some family members want to delete a deceased influencer account while others do not?
Personally, I want to delete all the accounts and online content that I make after death. Thus, I minimize posting something online. Many Eastern people think that death means coming back to nothing. As a deceased person becomes dirt, leaving nothing, deleting all daily life contents would be the best choice for a social media user. But, my academic papers will persist as small bricks for human knowledge. What is your opinion?

cal is one of zoyah’s little brothers he’s rly young, abt 9 years old. he’s a sweetheart, he absolutely worships the canyon run league he never misses a game, he goes w his siblings its so cute his older brother holds him on his shoulders & zo spoils him absolutely rotten she buys him whatever he wants
micah is one of the names i was looking at for zoyah’s older brother, im not sure if thats the name im gonna keep. he’s a couple years older & trans & hes helping zoyah out w all her stuff bc he wants to go off & give up his heirship & be an archivist & help people out but he cant do that until zoyah is accepted as a successor bc they don’t want someone else taking the throne. only women can be an heir, the men can be princes & consorts etc but only the queens rule, so before he comes out as trans they gotta make sure that zoyah is solidly in line otherwise it might go to someone untrustworthy
the cordry is a hall of records (cord - cordry lol). there’s one in each p large-ish town, the archivists run them as little hubs of knowledge, they keep records of all kinds of stuff, births, deaths, visitors, exports & imports, mages who come through, caravans etc.

Life Insurance For Non-U.S. Residents
Life Insurance offers many benefits to the owner and beneficiaries regardless of their citizen status. However, there are characteristics of a life insurance policy that may assist foreign nationals (non-U.S. residents) with their special estate and tax planning needs.
The proceeds payable under a life insurance policy are not considered a tangible U.S.-based asset and are not subject to U.S. estate taxes for non-resident aliens.Benefits payable under a life insurance policy are generally income tax-free.In a permanent life insurance policy, any growth in the cash value is tax-deferred. This cash value may also be accessed income-tax-free by the policy owner.
By using Life Insurance as part of the estate plan, a policy owner may be able to provide a tax-free benefit to their heirs in order to pay any U.S. estate taxes without having to sell a property.
In addition, the policy may also provide some wealth transfer to the beneficiary after any tax liabilities are met.
Who is considered a Foreign National?
Permanent Residents. Green Card HoldersTemporary Green Card HoldersNon-Resident Aliens living in the United States Full-TimeNon-Resident Aliens, living outside the United StatesDual CitizensAsylum or Refugee StatusTemporary Protected Status (TPS)
Why should a Foreign National with U.S. connections consider owning a U.S. based Life Insurance policy?
It turns out there are many reasons a permanent life insurance policy may provide:
income and estate tax-free death benefits,tax-deferred cash value growth,tax-advantaged distributionsliquidity heirs can use to protect assets,estate planning confidence.
These short and long term benefits are meaningful for all policy owners but there may be special tax benefits to owning a life policy when you are a foreign national.
Estate and Tax Planning Considerations
Individuals who are not U.S. Citizens but have ties and assets in the U.S., as well as individuals who are U.S. citizens but whose spouse is not, have special estate and tax planning considerations.
Did you know there are tax regulations that may cause your family to owe money to U.S. taxes?
For example;
A person who has never stepped foot in the U.S. may be leaving his heirs with U.S. estate taxes to pay if his portfolio included stock in a U.S. Corporation or other U.S. based assets.A surviving spouse living in a foreign country whose husband was a U.S. Citizen may be required to pay U.S. estate taxes on their second home located in Florida (as an example) that they owned at the time of his death.
The Tax Concerns
GIFT TAX
The gift and estate tax marital deductions generally allow for transfer between spouses with no transfer tax consequences.
However, there is no unlimited marital deduction for gifts to non-citizen spouses.
Exclusions for lifetime transfers to a non-citizen spouse are limited to $148,000 annually with an additional lifetime exemption of $5,490,000 (2017 exclusion and exemption numbers).
RESIDENCY STATUS
Non-U.S. citizens who live in the U.S. may be considered a resident alien and subject to Income Taxes if they have a “substantial presence” in the U.S.
Non-U.S. citizens who have connections or assets tied to the U.S. but do not have substantial presence may be considered nonresident aliens.
This test is not always clear, and it may be important for individuals to understand whether or not they could be considered a Resident Alien for income tax purposes.
ESTATE TAX
Nonresident aliens are limited to a $60,000 estate tax exclusion on U.S.–based assets.
As with gift taxes, there is no unlimited marital deduction for estates transferred to non-resident alien spouses unless transferred through a Qualified Domestic Trust (QDOT).
U.S. based assets owned by a nonresident alien or that are being transferred to a nonresident alien may be subject to the estate tax.
This includes all tangible property and real estate located in the U.S., or stocks, and an ownership interest in a U.S. corporation.
Additional Benefits of Owning a U.S. based Policy
Beyond the estate and tax planning benefits of the life insurance policy itself, a foreign national may also find benefit in participating in the U.S. Life Insurance Market.
The U.S. Life Insurance market is the most mature in the world which may allow for access to improved product design and competitive product pricing.The U.S. Life Insurance industry is highly regulated through both federal and state oversight and is considered one of the most stable in the world.In addition, with the contract and benefits denominated in the U.S. Dollar, a policy may provide financial confidentiality, wealth diversification, and economic security that may not otherwise be available in a foreign market.A U.S. Life Insurance contract provides the personal freedom to choose beneficiaries and heirs and can avoid the concern of forced heirship for those whose home country requires a specific inheritance.
Regardless of the policy owner’s citizen status, a life insurance policy may also help with many other needs such as income protection, business succession planning, legacy planning, wealth protection, and executive benefits planning.
