gordon ramsay: *holds neville between two slices of bread* what are you

Imagine that this is Gordon Ramsay a la Masterchef Junior

Neville: *messes up the potion, realizes it, starts crying quietly*

GR: What’s going on?

Neville: *explains how he messed up*

GR: Oh gosh okay…we can fix this, don’t cry, see, it’s fine now? Just be more careful when you’re adding the Newt’s eyes, all right? Drop them in gently. There we go. No more tears.

Ramsay: All you had to do was treat it with a fucking Beozar! 

Slughorn: It was a stressfu-

Ramsay: How long have you been teaching potions?!

or

Ramsay: So you’re going to raise this boy SPECIFICALLY so he can die as part of your twisted little scheme? 

Dumbledore: It’s for the greater good, professor. 

Ramsay: The greater fucking good?! *holds two slices of bread either side of dumbledoor’s face* What are you? 

Dumbledore: Am I, per chance, an idiot sandwich? 

Gordon had run in to help a group of struggling kids with a team challenge and one of the older kids, a 12 year old boy, wasn’t passing attention while taking a pan out of the oven and not only spilled all the food but scalded Gordon.

It’s clear Gordon’s leg is in pain. He’s been badly burned without warning. But he doesn’t scream. He doesn’t yell, not even in pain, and he doesn’t go off on the child who is now frozen in fear. He calmly tells the child to set the pan down and to close the oven, safety first. Then tells him to go restart the food he was making, calm instructions.

My husband and I grew up in abusive homes where any mistake meant parents getting angry (my husband is terrified of spills or broken glasses because that meant beatings growing up, for me, anything going wrong, that could upset my mother, even if it wasn’t my fault meant screaming and emotional abuse).

I didn’t know someone could be so calm. That someone could not get angry, and put aside what they’re feeling (in this case a lot of physical pain) and not take it out on those around them, even when someone around them had messed up, because that person is a child.

It was after a particularly nasty nightmare when Harry found Draco still reading in the common room. Draco looked up at him, and didn’t stay anything. He just patted the place next to him and wrapped an arm around Harry. They just sat there, with Harry watching the fire as Draco read. Draco was the first one to fall asleep, with his lips slightly parted, and Harry fell asleep with a smile on his face. 

Of course, Draco would wear silk.

The world is wide open. Anything can happen.

They can be fake boyfriends who become real boyfriends. They can be co-workers who fall slowly in love, fighting it every inch of the way before finally giving in. They can be best friends who get drunk and sleep together, have a huge fight in the morning because neither is sure of the other’s feelings, and then finally work things out when they realise they’ve both been in love for years. They can meet in a foreign city and take advantage of the unfamiliar surroundings to ignore their pasts and embark on a passionate love affair. They can be members of competing sports teams who can’t stop one-upping each other until they finally realise they were both just trying to get each other’s attention.  They can be shocked to see each other on a blind date. They can both be chasing the same guy and realise that they actually want each other.

When your OTP becomes canon, you’re limited to one story, and there’s only so many times you can hear that story before it gets old.
