Been reading Frankenstein for class recently and Frankenstein seems in love with Henry

i have once again reread running on air

bear with me but remember during the season 4 Rink-O-Mania fight where Will was like "and us?" and Mike was like "We're friends! We're friends." Because he took Will's words as romantic, and Will was like "Well we used to be best friends." and Mike realised Will was being platonic. now, remember how people say Mike was pretty clueless and super oblivious? what if he did think that Will liked him during the Van scene, but remembered how Will had only meant his words platonically before + Will pushing him to say ily to El, which is why Mike doesn't think Will likes him, because the last time he thought Will was being romantic, he fucked everything up :D?

"why do you love reading will's POV so much?"

I just wanna say. There's something deeply poetic to me about how Nigel thinks about the Templar knights. They were, to him, the epitome of greatness and something to look up to. Something he seemed to wish he could be. But the crusaders (and thus the Templars) ultimately lost, there were like 10 crusades and they didn't win a single one. And Nigel absolutely has to know that, not just from how obsessed with it he is but it's a religious school for crying out loud. And also just common info.

Nigel wanted to be a person who partook, though not directly, in a battle he knew he wouldn't win. He wanted to ultimately die, alongside so many others, for what would ultimately be nothing. They protected people as they traveled, that's really all the Templar knights did. He saw himself as a protector in some way. Dying in the name of a god that didn't save them.

No clue if this actually makes sense I'm very high. Just food for thought.

microfic may day 3: coffee

drarry. 273 words. this is unequivocally the stupidest thing I’ve ever written.

After the war, rumour had it Draco Malfoy disappeared. Puffed up and away in a cloud of smoke because he was cursed by Voldemort.

Rumour then had it that he ran far, far away.

Rumour also had it that he was completing a potions mastery somewhere exotic, and that one day he’d return home.

The one thing rumour didn’t have was a timeframe. So naturally, Harry was quite surprised to attend his 3pm appointment and come face to face with Draco Malfoy.

“Err. What did you say her name was again?”

“Coffee, Potter. Please do keep up.”

“Because the scales on her head look like coffee granules and you think they’re multiplying?”

“Well, yes. But there’s more. She’s been more tired than usual. And she’s not been eating too much. All in all, rather concerning.”

Harry poked around at the speckled snake coiled around Draco’s hand. A forked tongue gently lapped at his fingertip and was that a wink?

He cast his usual diagnostic charms which all pinged a gorgeous, normal green.

“I can’t see anything unusual, Malfoy. I’ll give you a standard vitality potion and check back in next week.”

Draco baulked. “There’s nothing wrong? At all? Are you sure?”

Harry gave him an affirmative nod and Coffee a gentle scritch under the chin. “I’ll see you both next week. For a check up.”

Draco was gracious enough to thank Harry for his time on the way out.

Though the more Harry thought about it, he was pretty sure the parting hiss from the reptile translated roughly into something like:

Foolssss. 10 yearssss apart and all he talkssss about issss you.

Update: I've written a bit more, and I think it's a decent amount for a first chapter, but I'm having some difficulty thinking of a title for it to post, so it'll be a little while until I'm able to actually post it on ao3. I'll keep giving updates as I go. However, the updates may be few and far between, I'm great at procrastinating and forgetting about projects, and I haven't actually written anything seriously in about 5 years

I've started writing a (possible) fic for like minds because it's taken over nearly my entire mind, and I've read nearly all of the fics on ao3 by now. This is what I've got at the moment, i can't decide if i should post it. I've also never actually posted anything on ao3 before, which doesn't help

What do yall think i should do?

A series of posts from the Alt National Parks Page regarding Elon Musks take over.
