Ahsoka: Nope. I can never show my face to Obi-Wan ever again.
Anakin: It couldn’t have been that bad.
Ahsoka: No, it was.
Anakin: What happened?
Ahsoka: He asked me where you were, and I said “Who’s Anakin?”
Anakin:
Ahsoka, on the verge of tears: He wasn’t even mad that I was lying, just disappointed that I was so bad at it.

i need a fluffy story of harry getting his father's cloak and then rushes to tell tom about it. tom being the devious child he is ofc starts plotting on what he can do with the cloak. but he asks harry if he can borrow it cause that's what a good best friend does and harry says yes and also quotes 'wouldn't it be more fun with the both of us?' tom's tiny crush grows bigger asdfghjkl

Anonymous asked:

What's so great about Harrymort, anyway? This ship basically consists of Stockholm syndrome, power inequality, and abuse. The same can be applied to Tomione but I understand that last one and I even started to appreciate this ship a lot. Hermione is the character most similar to Tom, if she had the ambition that Tom had, she could have become something similar to Voldemort in canon. But beyond that, Hermione is someone Tom/V could respect and have as an ally. She is someone who would be able to rule alongside him, and everyone would benefit from that, since she is fair and good. Also if Tom/V had her by his side, he would be a more stable version than the one in canon. So.. I understand why you like this ship so much but.. the more I think about Harrymort the more I feel disgusted. Harry is not a character that people respect and fear, he is just Harry. Just that. Some random boy. There's nothing special about him, and if it weren't for the horcrux he would already be dead since chapter 1 of the books. Tom/V is a prodigy, one of the most powerful wizards in the books, he wouldn't be interested in someone so ordinary. But let's say yes, that Tom/V is interested in Harry precisely because he is common and average, since they have a similar background - This is difficult to happen, V is not an empathetic character but let's pretend so - and because of the horcrux, of course it's because of the horcrux, that's the only reason, the only thing that makes Harry stand out among the others -not even that came from him lol so sad- If our hypothetical scenario happened, Harry would be a toy for Tom /V -he already is- "ah, but the fun is in how much Harry fights, he was going to fight, that's what he is" oh yes, this argument is the favorite of the Tomarymort fans, huh? He wouldn't be able to fight forever, this character has been in fight or flight mode since the beginning, he'll get tired eventually, V would be able to break him, and do you think V is the type to keep things broken? I don't think so. My point is Tomarymort is a ship that explores abuse, toxic and destructive relationships, physical and psychological torture, Stockholm syndrome etc. And that's fine if you like it but I think we can all agree that this ship and love should NEVER be put in the same sentence . Because love and respect would never exist between these two characters. No matter how good the writer is, some things just don't work. Just become them ooc, that's what happens most lol

Preface: I’m breaking this one down point by point, and then I am never responding to anything similar ever again. I will also not be posting anonymous responses to this. I hate being the middle man for a tumblr shipping war, so I’m not going to participate in that. If you want to respond, you can leave a comment or reblog it into your own page. 💖

Firstly, I want to do is thank OP for allowing reblogs on this topic. This ship fight is getting plainly ridiculous and I commend OP for imposing boundaries.

Disclaimer: I am a firm defender that fanfiction is a sandbox that we can play in without giving a damn about canon and that we should all, generally, mind our own business. I believe that meta analysis (which is what anon here is attempting, whether they know it or not) generally benefits from having a steady foot in canon territory — otherwise, we’re at risk of sounding plain silly. I’m also a firm defender of venting about the characterizations, tropes, and ships we aren’t fond of, as long as we stick to fandom etiquette of 1) not naming names and 2) not sending anon messages ranting about topics the op has repeatedly stated being absolutely done with.

When one violates either of the above rules, well — I believe that turnabout is fair play.

A word to the Tomiones and fanon!Hermione fans of good faith that might run into this post: please, proceed with caution. I’m placing this under a read more, I’m not making my own post and flooding your tags with it, I’m sticking firmly to my lane and I don’t wish to annoy folks caught in the crossfire. I’d appreciate it if you were to extend me the same courtesy.

Now, on to the meat of it.
