Hi yall,

I’ve been lurking for a while, and it’s so fun to see the ones of you who are still active transfer through new fandoms and my dash is just a beutiful mess of current passions of people who once had common passions

So... how have you been?

I got into my dream school, and I graduated. I got a job I’ve been dreaming about for years. I started reading again. I found new friends, and kept some of the old ones. I reconnected with my creative side. I won nanowrimo, three times with two different projects. I’m okay with a lot of things today that I wasn’t at the time. I no longer regularly eat fries for breakfast because it’s the only thing I can stomach. I still haven’t fixed my sleep schedule though...

Sometimes, I’ll just go down a rabbit hole, scrolling through my blog and smiling at all of it. With some sort of nostalgic melancholy. When I look back at those posts, and those years, I see that girl I used to be (side note but... I was so young. I regularly see 14/15 year old and I just want to hug them, and myself at that age, because it’s so difficult), so lonely and longing for someone and somewhere to belong. And yall brought me that, and, honestly, the community we built on tumblr is one of the few reasons I don’t feel, looking back, that those years were only darkness.

I don’t know where I’m going from here, because I do miss tumblr, it’s still my go-to for fandom content. But I don’t wanna change my url because I’m very attached to it, but I won’t be posting that much HP content because in this house we do not support terfs and the whole thing leaves kind of a bad taste in my mouth at present. So maybe I’ll make a new blog eventually? For now, this is just a shout-out to you from my nostalgic brain

Tagging some people that always come to mind, if this seems like i stalked you a tiny bit that might be because I did... a lot of archives and discord chats have been searched (and if you’re not here because I couldn’t find you but you still see this, I love you too, and if you’re like ‘who tf is’, I’m sorry, go on with your life)

Remus Lupin fell asleep on the Quidditch bleachers in their second year. James Potter and Sirius Black and Peter Pettigrew woke him up, and they propped him up all the way up the stairs.

Remus Lupin fell asleep in the middle of Charms class. Peter Pettigrew took notes for the both of them all class and woke him up with a shoulder tap and a smile.

Remus Lupin fell asleep on the moving staircase in fifth year, and Lily Evans laughed so loudly she woke him up. He insisted he was just resting his eyes for a minute. They walked back to the common room together, and he threw an arm around her shoulder and they both pretended it wasn’t because he was too weak to walk on his own. 

Remus Lupin fell asleep in the common room, late in sixth year, and Sirius Black found him curled up on the couch with his Muggle book open on his chest. Sirius took the blankets off both their beds, because Moony got cold so easily, and dropped them over the other boy. He picked up his book and put it on the coffee table.

Remus Lupin fall asleep in the library, on top of his schoolwork in seventh year, and James, who was quite a bit taller than the other boy at this point, lifted him up and carried him to to their dorm room as gently as possible, grinning at his friend and shaking his head. He put him in his bed and turned off the light, heading outside, now late for the Quidditch practice he was supposed to be coaching.

Remus Lupin falls asleep on the Hogwarts Express, like he always used to do. No one wakes him. No one covers him.

He is woken by the cold rush of his worst memories and a face that looks too familiar and far too young. 

Look me in the eyes and tell me that was necessary

In general the Harry Potter movies went like this:

Book Harry: sassy little shit, an athlete constantly on the Quidditch pitch, natural leader Movie Harry: doesn’t play much Quidditch, stares dramatically into the distance with flared nostrils. “Who am I, Hedwig? What am I?”

Book Ron: heart and soul of the trio, understands Harry like no one else, awesome sense of humor, terrified of losing Harry, understandable inferiority complex, says the line “If you’re going to kill Harry you’ll have to kill us too!” as well as saving them all from strangulation by Devil’s Snare with the line, “Are you a witch or not?” (hem hem, very cool under pressure while Hermione sometimes isn’t), is the primary source of Wizarding and Ministry know-how, defends Hermione when Snape bullies her (“You asked us a question and she knows the answer! Why ask if you don’t want to be told?”), described by Rowling as “easy to love” Movie Ron: Eats food and makes moody faces, completely panics in the face of Devil’s Snare and needs Hermione to save him, supports Snape’s talking-down of Hermione (“He’s right, you know”) and generally sits in the shadows until the next comic-relief scene is needed

Book Hermione: brightest witch of her age, always thinks she’s right and usually is, not particularly attractive, socially awkward, refuses to admit to most of her emotions and doesn’t understand Harry as well as Ron does, but nevertheless amazing in her own unconventional way Movie Hermione: brightest witch of her age, conventionally attractive, literally a goddess, has a lot of awesome lines like “If you’re going to kill Harry you’ll have to kill us too!”, comfortably uses Voldemort’s name from the second movie onwards, highly perceptive to all things emotional, acts as Harry’s personal counselor and has heart-to-hearts with him while Ron sits in the background eating or sulking

Book Ginny: witty, popular, exciting, hates to be left out of things her older brothers get to do (and makes a huge fuss over it when she can’t), tough, writes Harry an audacious love poem as an eleven-year-old, trains herself to be an incredible Quidditch player, mischievous, a terrific liar and fighter, puts Harry in his place with her snarkiness, brave, gentle, badass and kind Movie Ginny: feeds Harry a pastry

And also ties his effing shoe 😡😡😡😡

East Indian Names

It’s Zoe with another list of names! This time, East Indian names! 

Here are a few things to note about French naming traditions:

The first name is the name they go by in their day-to-day life. 

Often, East Indians are given “pet-names” - their first name turned into a cuter version that they are called as a toddler. Sometimes this pet-name will stick into adulthood. 
The family name (last name) might denote a certain village or community the family is from. If it has the suffix “walla” (or a variant of this), it means their ancestors practised a certain trade. 
Parents put a lot of thought into making their child’s name sound nice, and good meaning. 

As always, if there are any inaccuracies in this post PLEASE let me know through a message or ask!

Any name lists you wanna see? Feel free to send in an ask! 

Feminine and masculine first names, as well as last names are underneath the cut!
