"Even for your four, this is a new low," Minerva ranted, blood boiling as she stared down at her four favorite students, who were all seated in chairs in her office, looking less-than-contrite. "Breaking in to the Slytherin Common Room in the middle of the night? Sticking every single student to their bed?"
"We don't discriminate," Sirius Black nodded, sending her a grin. "Though James's boyfriend will be a bit mad."
"Oi! Shut up about Re-"
"Boys!" Minerva interrupted, trying not to laugh. "This is unacceptable. I have to take fifty points from Gryffindor!"
All four Seventh-Years paused, staring at her. "Fifty?" Remus Lupin asked, tilting his head to the side.
"Each!" Minerva nearly-screeched. "And detention every night for a week!"
"So that's two hundred points total," James Potter said sadly.
"Yes," Minerva nodded, trying not to feel too badly. "So if you-"
"Can you make it three?" Sirius asked, interrupting.
She blinked, quite sure she'd heard incorrectly. "I- what?"
"It's just, we're trying to set a record," Remus explained calmly, eyes wide. "We need to beat two hundred and fifty."
Minerva's heart began beating erratically. No. Surely they hadn't found out-
"We recently came across this, you see," James continued, grinning and pulling a paper from his pocket. "Peter, here, had a detention where he had to rewrite some old detention cards. And look at this one!"
Hand shaking slightly, Minerva looked at the card. On it, written in a scrawl, were the words:
Minerva McGonagall, sixth year, Gryffindor, a month's detention and a loss of 250 points for hexing all of the Slytherin team's brooms. (Most points lost in a single day.)
Sighing, Minerva tried to school her expression before she looked back at the four boys. But she knew it was far too late to do anything about this. The secret was out.
"You're our biggest role model, Professor," Peter said sincerely, an awed look on his face. "A record of the most lost points in a day? We just want to beat your record."
"Yes. Oh, well. We'll have to try even harder next time," James smirked, taking the card back from her loose grasp.
It was at that moment that Minerva McGonagall new she was absolutely fucked.
A buncha idiots found my pro Tony/anti Steve post because they can't stay out of tags that upset them much like toddlers that want to keep eating lemons despite hating the taste, so I guess it's time for another hurricane of pro Tony/anti Steve posts
Also, for the record: Steve insisting on being in the battlefield despite being a liability is not noble nor inspiring, it's stupid and belittling of the people that helped war effort despite not being able to go to the battlefield. So sorry that your "pretty Captain" looks down on people that won't or can't be in the front lines, but it is what it is. He was lucky he got the serum, and even luckier that it made him so big no one would go against him.
my most popular fics to date and people wonder why fic authors leave this platform. so let me break it down for you:
likes do nothing. not a single goddamn thing except say "hey, I've seen this post". that's the extent of it.
replies don't spread the word, BUT they are a great place to leave feedback AFTER you've reblogged a fic
reblogs w commentary in the tags are literally one of the best things you can do
reblogs w comments attached are the other best thing you can do
if you don't reblog, our work doesn't get shared; surprise, but we don't post just to let our work sit there and collect dust
outright telling authors how a fic made you feel, what you liked about it, etc KEEPS US GOING! it doesn't even have to be a long paragraph, it can be "I loved X bc of Y!" or a fucking bunch of emojis!
you should be reblogging fic
if you're too shy to leave comments on them - make a different account just for reblogging fic! use the anon ask feature! send a DM!
to put it plainly: if you want fanfic authors to keep posting what they've written - FUCKING REBLOG IT AND GIVE US FEEDBACK
what- no i didn’t say anything- *pain*
this is the only thing i want pls omg
HOW
DID NO ONE TELL ME
THAT LEVERAGE AND THE LIBRARIANS
HAVE
OMG?!?
So apparently AO3 is cannonical to the DC universe, in which it is called Tales of our own or TO3!
Merlin: Bird watching goes both ways.
Arthur: That's vaguely threatening, thank you.
Broke: Merlin is a royalist because he is a class traitor boot licker
Woke: Merlin is a royalist because he was raised a peasant in the sixth century and he has the perspective and values typical of that time period on top of his personal experiences with Arthur to give him faith in the enlightened despotism favored by Catherine the Great and Frederick of Prussia.
Bespoke: Merlin is a royalist because anyone who had to live through both the English Civil War and Voltaire's exile to Britain would come out the other side thinking democracy is stupid.
Transcendent: Merlin is not a royalist. He is the divine right of kings in human form. The avatar of Albion and its magic. He does not believe in kings because of Arthur. He believes in Arthur so Arthur gets to be king.
just a little reminder: had tony not pulled the strings he pulled, wanda would've spent life-long imprisonment rotting in jail in a high security cell instead of spending a comfy holiday inside a huge luxury mansion with her months-old android crush. and then her unthankful ass had to send all that to shit. man, tony was way too nice to this neo-nazi genocidal scumbag, even after she violated his mind out of pure vengeful hatred. yes im still salty:))
I actually remember reading this on the anti Wanda maximoff tag some time ago,but it really made an impact.the post was talking about how Wanda stans/tony antis shit on tony for trying to kill Bucky(which he wasn't bc he would have destroyed him,we've all seen iron man 2 and 3.if he wanted you dead you'd be dead)but like rabidly support Wanda and her revenge.
When I said I wanted more female representation in the MCU, this was not what I meant.
Honestly, Wanda stans give me a worse headache than cap stans. At least with Cap stans, Ik they’re just falling for that stupid USA propaganda. Other than being fooled by her white woman tears™️, idk wtf is wrong with her stans.
Wanda fully aware chose to join Hydra, a neo-nazi organization, as an adult, just because they were offering her “revenge” on Tony Stark, which makes her a fucking neo-nazi. She consciously decided to use her powers to mind-rape the Avengers. She actively decided to send the Hulk on a rampage to kill innocent civilians. She actively supported Ultron up until she realized she was one of the fucking humans he was going to wipe out, which makes her joining the Avengers a conflict of interest at best and pure self preservation/manipulation at worst. And all of that is just Avengers: Age of Ultron.
Later, she murders POC innocent civilians because she has no control over her powers, then gets upset and throws a fit when Tony says, “hey, maybe you shouldn’t be on life-or-death missions when you can’t control your powers”. Imagine if someone who didn’t know how to use a gun waltzed into the middle of a highly stressful mission in the middle of civilian ground with a machine gun, murdered innocent people, then got upset that they had to face consequences.
Then she throws a fit when someone suggests her microwave boyfriend’s life is less important than millions of innocent civilians, and with Cap’s support, thousands of Wakandans (black Africans) are killed, for nothing might I add considering she did a shit job and Thanos still got a hold of Vision’s stone, and half of the universe is snapped.
And woe is she, so she loses control of her powers, again, and enslaves a whole fucking city. But she didn’t know! So when she finds out that she’s hurting all of them, she throws another fit and forces them to continue playing along with her little fantasy.
And not once has she ever learned from any of her mistakes. Not once has she been humbled. Not once has she been forced to face the consequences of her actions. In fact, for her mistakes, others are punished.
But it’s alright. All of this is alright. She’s grieving and traumatized after all. Right? Because Tony Stark killed her parents with his bomb when she was a child.
Cry me a river. Why doesn’t she try to get revenge on the terrorists that deployed the bombs? Why does she actively choose to be an entitled cunt and put thousands of POC lives at risk? Why does she join a fucking neo-nazi organization?
Imagine going “oh I’m sad, I’ll join the KKK to feel better”.
But Tony is rich and she’s a white woman and she cries on screen.
And that, right there, is their logic I guess.
Dudes my acc has been like 5 reposts a year but I wanna change that! I’m hoping to start posting weekly! I’m probs gonna focus on Marauders and MCU for now.
