losing my mind trying to explain how jk rowling isn’t just Some Terf, she was a well established celebrity who brought anti-trans ideology to the general public and that doesn’t compare to public terfs who you’ll only know of if youre in trans or terf circles. not everyone has heard of posey parker but EVERYBODY has heard of jkr. she got to explain trans issues to people who didnt know about it before her so all the convo was on her terms. she is not just some person with a twitter.

y’all i’m abt to rebrand as a darlingstern blog wtf i’m obsessed w them

do you happen to know of that fanfic account on here whose url had something to do with beaubaxtons in it? i think her theme was blue. she was also ia for like a year or two then came back for a while but i can’t find her :(((

i just combed thru my tags and i think maybe you’re referring to beaubaxtons-babe?! unfortunately it looks like her blog is deactivated :// sorry !!

the ilvermorny exchange (8)

Part 8 | index | masterlist | read on ao3

summary: You’re an Ilvermorny student, and you’ve applied to the International Magic Student Exchange Program to attend your sixth year at Hogwarts instead. You and your friends are excited to go to school overseas, but a certain blonde prefect has decided to personally make your exchange year suck. You decide to give him a taste of his own medicine. (draco x reader, enemies to lovers, female reader) words: 5,388 A/N: ahahaha. hi. major thank you to amanda, @draconisxcaput for putting together a lovely event and everyone else participating for showing interest in bringing back new and old draco stories with ~substance~. hope you enjoy :) taglist: @tragically-cordelia @mhftrs @2pumpkin-pasty @gingerlouisgirl @seriouslynotfunny @clockworkherondale @cherrie511 @songforhema @marvelrose @acciodracoo @eltanin-malfoy @socontagiousimagines @drawlfoy @purplelittlepup  @trashysara @imatoiletpaper @laureldrakefics @definitely-not-spider-gwen @candune @wolfsbxnee @bubblybubbubs @nerd-domland @fricktheitinerary @bored-and-bothered @shawn-is-bruh @droppingthegloves @fuzzy-panda @alphajevie @bungunz @fenxiaomao @venomsvl @inthehamptons @imatoiletpaper

“Which Potion did you pick for the analysis question?”

Grace, who’s sitting in the armchair across from the low table Draco is seated at, answers. “Sleekeazy’s, so I could talk about the effect on women’s beauty standards.” 

Draco just hums in response, and you can feel the vibration of his entire body on your neck from your place in his lap. You open your eyes to look up at him. For anyone else, this angle up from the bottom of his chin would look atrocious, but somehow Draco still manages to look attractive as he taps his pinky nail against his teeth in concentration. Tucked under your arm at Draco’s side, Sophie stretches and purrs while you scratch her belly. 

This was your idea of a perfect evening: your boyfriend, your cat, and a quiet common room with the scratching of Draco’s quill to soothe you.

All of this was broken, however, when Stella burst through the door. “GUYS! Stop what you’re doing right now and look at what I found.”

Holy shit the ilvermorny exchange series is AMAZING!!!

Heyy i love the draco exchange series! Any updates as to when you'll post chapters 9 and 10?

hiiiiiiiii. i haven't thought much on it since i quit for draco, but it seems like recently more people have been reading it? I just wonder if it is worth it to continue since last time i updated not that many people commented or reblogged.

(Draco x  female Hufflepuff reader)

summary: (inspired by the song ‘needy’ by Ariana Grande) Draco Malfoy has been made a Death Eater and given the task to murder Albus Dumbledore, something that would make any normal person have constant breakdowns. Draco is no different. In the solace of Moaning Myrtle’s company, he gets attached to someone else in the process. words: 13.9k warnings: cursing, implied sex, blood (sectumsempra curse). a/n: Hi! I’ve had the plot for this imagine in my head since January, started writing it in February, and now in May it’s finally finished :) I Hope you all enjoy. If you’ve never heard this song, I really recommend it! lot’s of Ariana’s recent music makes me think about Draco. I tried to incorporate as many lyrics as possible, and also some from her song ‘ghostin’’ (an alternative title I considered) p.s. to my knowledge, brushing bugs are not something in the Harry Potter universe, I just came up with them on my own. I figured pureblood witches and wizards would have found alternative, magical means to cleaning their teeth, maybe considering toothbrushes for muggles, muggleborns and halfbloods. (there will be no second part to this imagine. it’s already super long) taglist: @clockworkherondale @mayorofzillyhoo @hockeyandmarvel @mdgrdians. this fic is deadicated to @socontagiousimagines who i know has been going through a tough time, loves ari & draco, and writes amazing stories ♡

Part of him couldn’t believe he was back in this bloody bathroom again, confiding in what was possibly Hogwarts’ most annoying ghost. And yet.

Myrtle was actually… not so annoying. Maybe she thought he was cute, but then again, from most of the stories it seemed she found all boys cute. Regardless, she was one person Draco could safely vent to, seeing as A) this problem would be trivial to her in twenty years and B) the Dark Lord couldn’t exactly kill a ghost, no matter how powerful he was. Myrtle had all the time in the world, and was very willing to listen to Draco come and complain or cry. She also gave surprisingly comforting advice, even if she couldn’t give him any physical comfort.

“…not your fault, he’s always sticking his nose into others’ businesses.” Myrtle’s high pitched voice echoed around the tiled room, pulling Draco’s thoughts back to the topic at hand.

“Myrtle?” Draco heard a female voice call. Myrtle immediately shut her mouth, and Draco tensed up. The girl came walking into the bathroom and turning the corner to where the rows of toilets were. “Sorry I’m…” Her voiced faded as she finally looked down the aisle.

Draco hoped it was someone he didn’t know, but instead found himself slightly surprised. It was Y/N L/N, the only Pureblood of their year to be sorted into Hufflepuff. Draco had always been vaguely aware of her presence– she was Hufflepuff Prefect, and her father worked at the Ministry like his own father. Draco had never had any reason to talk to her though, since they were sorted into opposing houses and young Draco had seen no reason to keep up with her.

this might be an unpopular opinion but:

fic writers don’t owe you reader inserts tailored to you.

as a poc and someone who doesn’t vibe with a lot of gendered terms most of the time i can definitely understand the frustration of certain descriptions taking you out of the moment - especially when it happens again and again and again.

but i think we need to take a step back and remember that fanfiction is usually something a writer writes for themselves first and then decides to share with an audience. we can’t hold the stories we get for free to the standards we do with popular media. if you want a fic tailored to you instead of the author of the fic, maybe consider commissioning that author or consider creating your own insert content.

i do think that it would be good to add things like pronouns and physical aspects in warnings (and i’m trying to think of it when i post new works), but i’ve seen posts going around telling people to not have y/n drink coffee, telling people to not describe genitals or trying to shame writers who use she/her pronouns themselves out of writing she/her pronouns for their y/n characters and that’s just ridiculous to me.
