Chronicly Confused

I posted yesterday and forgot to put on socials.

touching knees under the table

"I told you so"

Hello everyone!

Last year I started designing a series of Coat of Arms, themed in the spirit of Pride Month and using different mythological creatures as heraldic animals. I now aim to turn these designs into wearable pins and will be running a Kickstarter in Julyto fund this endeavor!

In addition to these 5 designs I wish to be able to crowdfund enough to be able to also manufacture the following pins and identities:

I have found a very trustworthy local manufacturer, who has already shown the quality of their craftsmanship with the first batch of test pins I received, just look at the detail they were able to produce!

Since I try to support local manufacturers, which produce pins with fair wages and are more ethical than outside of Europe, the pins are more expensive to create than through the usual pipeline via Asia.

I therefore seek to crowdfund the expenses since they would be more than I can afford. If you are interested and look forward to support this little endeavor, please follow the link below to sign up for a mailing list. People who signed up on the email list and pledged during the campaign will receive an exclusive sticker set by the end of a successful launch consisting of the following designs:

but halfway through, remus realizes sirius isn’t doing this because he wants sex. he’s doing it because he thinks he deserves to be punished.

so remus stops. he just lies down beside him and pulls him close, pressing soft kisses to his forehead and cheeks while sirius looks completely confused.

and remus tells him that arguments aren’t punishments. that people who love each other are allowed to be angry with each other. that fighting is supposed to help them understand each other better, not hurt each other.

​"I don't," Remus said calmly, not looking up from his book.

​"Everyone has a type! James likes people who hate him. Pete likes anyone who gives him the time of day. I like..." Sirius waved a hand vaguely. "Well. Anyway. What's yours?"

​Remus sighed, finally marking his page and looking up. "Fine. Dark hair. Ridiculously dramatic. Comes with a truly terrifying amount of family trauma."

Sirius went completely still. Remus’s stomach dropped as he watched the gears turn in Sirius's head. What the fuck had he done. Remus stopped breathing, bracing for the worst as Sirius leaned across the sofa, his eyes wide and horrified.

​"Merlin," Sirius breathed. "You're in love with Snape."

​Remus stared at him for five long, agonizing seconds.

​The panic instantly evaporated, replaced by a profound, heavy disbelief. Remus looked into Sirius's wide, genuinely horrified eyes, wondering how it was mathematically possible to fall so desperately in love with someone so incredibly stupid.

Summary:

All he'd wanted was some time. Just a bit of time to get his head back on straight. But time had turned into two dead friends, twelve months spent in Azkaban that had felt like years, and a head more damaged than when he'd started.

i recently stumbled across another wolfstar road trip fic and it’s SO good!! maybe you’ve already heard of it or even read it, but if not, it’s called "160 Acres in Ojai" by MsAlexWP

it’s definitely become one of my favourites. it’s set in the 70s too, and it’s written sooo beautifully, it gave me a lot of the same emotional feelings that i got while reading black mass

the dynamic is a bit different from black mass though, because they don’t already know each other from when they were younger. sirius ends up picking remus up while he’s hitchhiking and the story kind of grows from there

just thought i’d mention it in case you haven’t come across it yet!!

have a lovely day <3

hi love, thank you so much for the recommendation!! black mass is just so dear to me, i’m so happy you like that fic too<3

i have heard about 160 Acres in Ojai!! It’s always intrigued me, but I remember I was a bit sceptical about starting it, perhaps because of a few tags. After your recommendation, though, I’ll definitely give it a go!! I really love everything from MsAlexWP :)

i’m so curious about it now, thank you for describing it to me. i’ll absolutely check it out and tell you about it!! you’re so kind, thank you for thinking of me<3
