Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling

In Another Universe

by rosequartzstars

Hermione Granger is brilliant: she completed her PhD in Linguistics at 25, and is the youngest faculty member at the University. Ron Weasley, an unruly quantum physicist... well, he's getting there. But when Granger gets stacked with a project she hates and has to talk to other scholars at the University, their paths cross and become permanently intertwined in a way neither of them could've ever anticipated. (Slow Burn Romione Muggle Uni AU)

Asphodel, bezoar and aconite

by Isidar_Mithrim

It’s Harry Potter’s first Potions Class, and Severus can’t help looking at him, hating his unruly black hair.Then, he sees his eyes.{Or, my personal intake about Severus’s choice to ask Harry those infamous questions during his first Potions class. I find the alternative – that he simply wanted to humiliate him – as much or even more plausible, but I hope you’ll agree that interpretation doesn’t have the same flair…}

i'll show you every version of yourself tonight

by cranberrybagel

Healing isn't linear, and scars aren't milestones. They are the aftermath. To carry them is to carry memory: of pain, of survival, of how close things came to falling apart. But they are also boundaries, the body saying this is where I broke, and this is where I began again. In sharing them, in letting someone see what you were never supposed to survive, there is the beginning of something new.There is a kind of intimacy in brokenness that love alone can reveal. To trace the lines someone hides, not with pity, but reverence, to look at what hurt them and not flinch, is a devotion deeper than words. Scars in that light become sacred: places where hands can linger, where softness returns, where one learns how to be gentle again. They are not imperfections, but maps to the places where love can rest its head.-Megumi shows Yuuji, and Yuuji shows Megumi, that scars aren’t the shadows of what should’ve ended them; rather, they are the silver threads of survival.The gleaming stardust left behind when the soul refused to dim.

Joker Colours Meta (& Extras)

by darthaline

Even before I watched the Joker, I was intrigued by the decision to change Joker’s signature colours, and it was absolutely delightful to pick apart and decode the colour language of the movie. So here I would like to offer my interpretation, and some extras on themes of breaking free, of expressing emotions through environment, and narrative ambiguity.

Cabellos de angel

by KeyGalley

Bakugō contempló su silueta en el espejo; una pequeña línea se trazó en medio de su cara conforme crecían los rayos del sol. Compuso su clásica sonrisa burlona y pensó que tal vez, en otra realidad, él nació para ser un villano.

by freefan1412

In the aftermath, Soushi was still figuring out who he was. As it turned out, there was much he still didn't know. Even a year later, he's still trying to understand what it means for him. But one thing is for sure: things with Kazuki weren't supposed to be this way. Naturally, that does not help.
