Summary: Simon and Baz are both feeling too much, and yet not enough. Simon has broken up with Agatha, but not for the reason Baz may think. So when Baz is about to leave at night, Simon follows him…

Baz
It finally sounds like Simons asleep. It took him a long time today, but I can hear his breaths are getting slower and slower, so that’s usually a good sign. I am so thirsty. I never leave the room at night to hunt, if Simon’s still awake. I know that he’s fully convinced that I’m a vampire, but giving him more evidence would just be stupid. He already thinks I’m plotting, I can see it. He gives me these looks all the time, like he’s trying to figure something out about me. I guess I could just choose to not care, but it’s not that easy. I like to have him look at me at all times, even though I know it could never be like that. He has Agatha anyway, and that’s just how it is. I should have made peace with that, years ago.

How to read RUNAWAYS -- and how to keep it running...
A number of readers have told me they plan on diving into comics for the very first time to read the new Runaways series I’m writing for Marvel.
THIS MAKES ME SO HAPPY. First, because I’m grateful that people want to read the things I write. And second, because COMICS ARE GREAT, AND I WANT YOU TO HAVE GREAT THINGS.
But I’m also hearing from a lot of you that you don’t know where to start…
“I can’t wait to read your new comic book! How does one… acquire such a thing?”
THIS IS NOT A STUPID QUESTION. Comics can be really confusing and intimidating. (Even for people who have been reading comics for 30 years and now work in comics.)
The goal of this post is to make it REALLY EASY for you to find and read Runaways. I don’t want you to have any Cath-avoiding-the-dining-hall feelings. (And I also don’t want the book to get canceled before all the characters get their big-kiss moments.)

Chapter twelve: The Mirror of Erised She was a very pretty woman. She had dark red hair and her eyes - her eyes are just like mine, Harry thought, edging a little closer to the glass. Bright green - exactly the same shape, but then he noticed that she was crying; smiling, but crying at the same time. The tall, thin, black-haired man standing next to her put his arm around her. He wore glasses, and his hair was very untidy. It stuck up at the back, just like Harry’s did. Harry was so close to the mirror now that his nose was nearly touching that of his reflection. ‘Mum?’ he whispered. ‘Dad?’ They just looked at him, smiling. And slowly, Harry looked into the faces of the other people in the mirror and saw other pairs of green eyes like his, other noses like his, even a little old man who looked as though he had Harry’s knobbly knees - Harry was looking at his family, for the first time in his life. The Potters smiled and waved at Harry and he stared hungrily back at them, his hands pressed flat against the glass as though he was hoping to fall right through it and reach them. He had a powerful kind of ache inside him, half joy, half terrible sadness.
I’m just loving @susannedraws‘s Harry Potter posts.
Fan Theory
The young couple in Landline who helped out Georgie in Omaha were Cath and Levi.

snowbaz blogs
okay y’all know the drill reblog this if you post snowbaz/carry on and i’ll follow you!!
The dilemma of WANTING TO DRAW ALL THE CUTE AF SNOWBAZ FANART THAT IS GOING THROUGH YOUR HEAD BUT NOT BEING ABLE TO BECAUSE YOU HAVE NO ARTISTIC ABILITIES WHAT SO EVER AL;SKDFJS;DKFJ Someone kill me with as much Snowbaz fanart you can give me plez I’m dying and need more
#relatable
may i ask why you're having problems with carry on?
Sure, hon.(Disclaimer: these are my own personal opinions.)-Lucy gets fridged and never really gets closure. Simon doesn’t even know she spoke to him! Nobody knows she’s dead! It’s narratively and emotionally unsatisfying. -Simon and Baz are really awful to each other for years, and then suddenly they’re dating. I mean, Baz pushed Simon down the stairs. He tried to steal his voice. That’s not cute.-Will anyone ever adress Simon’s PTSD? Will anyone ever adress Baz’s internalized homophobia? Who knows! -Penny’s homophobia lite. -Miss me with that child neglect -Why did Eb die? What’s even the point of that? Agatha would have left anyways. Stop killing off female characters 2k17-I really don’t like how you get the feeling that Agatha’s pretty much estranged from her friends at the end of the book.-Penny just casually possesses both a dog and a PERSON and it’s nbd. What? The fuck? That’s not okay!-It makes me so sad that Simon never has a parental figure (like the Weasleys for Harry.) The closest he gets is Eb, who died.-There’s some tonal dissonance that’s really…I mean, the book is dark, and I feel like the lighter bits don’t really mesh properly. I can’t give you any solid examples, except for the kiss scene. Yeah, everyone loves the forest kiss, but Baz just set a forest on fire which is basically vampire suicide and then Simon kisses him and that’s…off, to me. -I’ve talked about this a lot with a friend in the fandom and she brought up the nature of Carry On: it’s a Harry Potter send up. Often that clashes with actual plot/character stuff. -In my opinion, RR’s grasp of plot is not as good as her grasp of character. Carry On is very different from the rest of her books in that it actually has a plot, and that and the sheer number of POVs means that the story is not as cohesive as it could be, and the emotional character development suffers for that. These are the major points. I don’t love Carry On anymore, and I don’t know if I ever did - it was so different from my expectations and the little tidbits we got in Fangirl. I was really involved in the Simon Snow fandom, pre-Carry On, back when all we had was bits in Fangirl. Carry On disappointed me, and now its flaws stand out too much for me to enjoy it.
I feel like in "fangirl", Carry on seemed boring and not exciting at all, whereas "Carry on, Simon" where just perfectly made. But that's just my opinion ✨
abs are for people who haven’t been kidnapped by bloody numpties.

1. Set the game (Never have I ever)
BAZ
“Of all the stupid ideas you idiots have ever had, this is by far the stupidest one. And that’s to put it nicely.” I don’t know why I agreed to this. We are sitting, forming a circle, in the middle of an empty classroom. Snow is seated directly across from me. Great, now I have full sight of him.
“You’re free to go if you want to,” he says.
“We were here before you arrived,” I protest. “I’m not moving.”
“Come on Baz, let’s play,” Dev pleads. “It will be fun!” he says. Fucking traitor.
“Okay, so which game should we play?” the pixie asks.
“Never have I ever,” Wellbelove says, nonchalantly, as if she’s done this sort of thing many times.

I haven’t posted a lot of fanfic in a while. College has been taking a lot of my time lately but I hope you all enjoy this!
Simon
Simon waited impatiently for Penny to meet him at the liquor store entrance. The snow was making him shiver in his threadbare clothing. He thought longingly of his warm uniform back at Watford. Unfortunately tonight’s activities required casual clothing. He watched Penny exit a taxi and cross the street, bundled in a purple coat. She looked wary, as if she already knew what Simon was going to say. “Why exactly am I outside in the snow at 11 o’clock at night?” Her voice feigned casual annoyance. “Because we’re going to crash a party.” Her eyebrows rose considerably. “Why on earth would we do that?” Simon grimaced. “I think Baz is using the opportunity to plan with some of his cousins…you know that ones that dropped out.” Penny rolled her eyes. “Simon, is this about Baz plotting or about you having an excuse to see him over winter break?” Simon blushed. “I am doing this under the Mage’s instructions. And I do not want to see him.” Penny made a noise of disgust. “Oh you so do. You’ve been following him around all year again like a puppy. And I’ve seen the way you look at him, not exactly shooting daggers.” Simon looked away. “Fine. Whatever. But I’m seriously doing this under Mage’s orders.” Penny began to walk in the direction of the party. “Bet you didn’t mind the order that much though.” Simon hated that Penny was always right.
Baz
He was bored within twenty minutes of the party starting. Mostly it was a bunch of his tosser cousins and friends getting shitfaced and dancing like fools in a ridiculously formal foyer. The music churned to a dark beat and the place was steaming from bodies. For Baz’s heightened senses the atmosphere was overwhelming. Finally he gave in and started drinking, it would at least take some of the edge off. He stopped after two beers, not wanting to get drunk or even seriously buzzed. But it was enough to dull his vampire senses a bit. Lazily he strolled down the hall towards the front door, meaning to get a breath of fresh air. Instead he was blocked by Dev arguing with a rather pushy guest at the front door. “He’s my roommate! Of course he wouldn’t mind me coming in.” Dev snorted, “And he hates you mate. This isn’t going to work but nice try.” There was a mild growl and finally Baz realized who was in the doorway. “Let him in Dev.” Dev looked back at Baz with a questioning look, but moved out of the way just the same. Snow and Bunce stood in the doorway, Snow looking particularly pathetic without a real winter coat.
Simon
Baz stood in the doorway wearing expensive looking dark wash jeans and a snug ivory V-neck sweater. Simon worked to keep his gaze neutral. For a moment they didn’t say anything, just watched each other. “Well, the chosen one has shown up to one of our meager gatherings, I’m honored.” Simon sighed. “Yeah I get it. Look, I just came to swing by for a bit.” Baz’s eyes were dilated slightly, something about it made him seem warmer. “Yes that’s a rather believable excuse.” Simon waited to be officially kicked out. Instead Baz beckoned them further into the hall with his hand. “Don’t just stand there like social pariahs.” Penny grimaced as they made their way into the main room of the party. It wasn’t even midnight yet and the partygoers were already far-gone. Most were occupied with groping each other or messily downing beer. Baz leaned against a wall and looked Simon over in an almost catlike gesture. “Come to spy on me?” Simon leaned his head back on the wall and turned to face Baz completely. “You want the truth?” “Might please me.” Simon got caught up in Baz’s grey eyes. “Yes.” The word came out breathless, like a declaration and not a confession of espionage. “I must admit you’ve lost your touch Snow. Fifth year you were almost good enough to outsmart me.” “That’s a lie.” “Mother always told me to strive for humbleness.” It felt like they we’re flirting, not arguing. Penny tapped him on the shoulder. “I’m leaving.” “Why?” She smirked, “I think you have the situation handled quite well.” Simon frowned in defeat. “Fine.” She kissed his cheek lightly and exited the way they came. Baz smirked. “That was quick.” “Not really her scene.” Baz scooted closer. “Is it yours?” “Not exactly.” “But you’re staying.” “Mage’s orders.” Baz actually grinned at that. “Of course.” Simon felt his body respond. “Are you drunk Baz?” “Not nearly.” Simon looked around. “Quite public here.” “Do we need privacy?” “I don’t know, do we?” Simon challenged him. Baz’s expression became hungry, confirming the little burst of hope in Simon’s chest. They left the room and went down another dark hallway. Baz backed Simon slowly against the wall without touching him. The electronic music from the living room thumped against the wall, heightening Simon’s nerves. “We still playing spy?” Baz’s voice was husky. Simon shook his head. “I don’t think so. Any other ideas for a game?” Baz placed one hand on the wall to brace himself and the other against Simon’s neck. He shivered lightly at the contact of Baz’s smooth skin. “A few actually.” Simon didn’t want to talk anymore. Baz leaned forward and as he did let his fangs unsheathe. Lightly he teased Simon’s neck with their points, not breaking the skin but pressing enough to make Simon gasp. “I…are you…thirsty?” Baz laughed against his neck causing Simon’s eyelids to flutter. “Not for that.” At that point Simon’s breathing was erratic, embarrassingly loud. Baz gripped Simon’s neck harder and brought his face down, crushing his lips onto Simon’s. He had expected it, but the kiss still left him a bit dizzy with surprise. He let himself feel Baz’s cool lips and the vibrating wall against his back. He opened his mouth and slid his tongue in Baz’s mouth, not caring about the fangs there. Baz groaned lightly and allowed Simon to deepen the kiss. Simon’s hands were everywhere, in Baz’s hair, his shirt, and eventually his belt buckle. Baz broke off shortly to look Simon in the eyes. “Do you regret coming?” Simon shook his head. “Not at all.” Baz nodded and went back to kissing him. Simon, happily forgetting about the Mage’s instructions, allowed himself to get swallowed up in the darkness of the party and of Baz.
