It’s cannon that half of one of gorgug’s shirts is like a toga on Riz, so imagine how big the full one is.
Now I’m picturing the bad kids using one of Gorgug’s shirts like a straight jacket on Riz when he over works himself
thinking about the Bad Kids sharing clothes. like
- gorgug’s hoodie is basically a communal hoodie at this point (everyone is seen wearing it at some point) (it’s like. a dress on riz)
- adaine has a scarf that everyone likes to steal because it’s so soft (fig showed ayda a picture of boggy wrapped in it and ayda cried. real tears)
- the girls + riz love to steal fabian’s muscle tees (they don’t fit gorgug) (fabian buys one that’s way too big for him so that gorgug can steal it) (he pretends not to realize that it’s way bigger than his other tees) (cause he’s embarrassed that he did something nice) (the others clock it immediately but pretend they don’t for fabian’s sake)
- kristen has the ugliest socks (the kind that go around each toe like gloves) but they’re so comfortable (everyone’s ashamed to be seen wearing them) (but they’re so soft and warm and they might be enchanted??? no one knows) (if someone is seen wearing them they just exchange grim white-boy-tight-lipped-awkward-look-away nods and don’t say anything about it)
- riz has a scarily large assortment of hats that no one’s ever seen him in (no one knows why, or how, he got them) (they’re in every hat style imaginable) (usually one of the Kids will just borrow a beanie, but kristen has tried a cowboy hat on occasion) (it was slapped off of her head immediately)
- fig has tried to make her leather jacket a communal jacket like gorgug’s, but it “doesn’t fit anyone else’s aesthetic” so instead she always has a pair of (not fingerless) gloves with her in case anyone gets cold

What are two special interests that have nothing to do with each other, but fallowed a similar path of interest.
I’ll start Greek mythology and unions both started from a surface level description, that could be its own special interest, newsies, and Percy Jackson and spiraled.

Reminder to all, Jack Kelly is Batman.
He’s a rare red green color blind so he only dose this with Gryffindor and Slytherin students
Big fan of the James is colorblind headcanon
Like, yes, he mixes up his and Regulus’ ties all the time. But also he has no idea which first years are in his house. When he’s headboy he constantly gives and takes away points from the wrong houses.
He found out he was colorblind during a quidditch match when he passed the ball to the wrong team.
Repeat after me, folks!!
You can't be a Hellenic pagan and be pro-Zionist.
You can't be a Hellenic pagan and be anti-Semitic.
You can't be a Hellenic pagan and be homophobic.
You can't be a Hellenic pagan and be transphobic.
You can't be a Hellenic pagan and hate on other minorities/religions.
You can't be a Hellenic pagan and be racist.
You can't be a Hellenic pagan and be an asshole.
Xenia is such a crucial part of Hellenic paganism. Anyone who disagrees with any of these points can kindly fuck off my blog.
