“ thhhchü! ” that was snape spitting in front of ted tonk’s feet. just to let him know he didn’t like muggles or muggle borns or squibs or all of the above. then he spit again. for good measure. “ what are you doing in my.......... school. ”

        it’s  hard   to  believe  that  some  of  them  were  students   just  a  year  ago.   her  days  in  hogwarts  felt  so  far  away  now  with  how  the  war’s  progressed;  she  couldn’t  say  she’s  killed  anyone  (  thankfully  ),  although  “heavily  injured”  wasn’t  off  the  table  nor  was  almost  dying  and  getting  heavily  injured  herself.   dorcas  didn’t  know  what  she  expected  her  life  after  graduation  to  be  like,  but  it  wasn’t  this.   ❛  do  you  think  it  will  ever  end ?   all  this ?  ❜

After a couple moments psyching herself up outside the large doorway to the hospital wing Marlene poked her head through, with no sign of Ted she made her way in. He had already expressed concern when her last Quidditch match was brought to an early end after she failed to pull up from a nose dive and she didn’t need him talking to Barbara just because a wrong step led to her falling down the main staircase.

                SHE’D SNUCK DOWN HALLS PLENTY AS A CHILD.  the guilt followed her still, though.  she could know consciously that the prison of her bedroom walls was no solution,  yet still understand that the DANGER at her fingertips was frightening.    the rules were in place for a reason.

        ❛  don’t  worry,  they’re  trained.   they  won’t  harm   you  unless  they  can  sense  you’re  dangerous.  ❜   anya  has  to  laugh  although  she  makes  sure  not  to  make  it  seem  insulting.   they  were  told  that  having  students  over  from  hogwarts  would  be  an  experience,  that  they  were  just  like  one  another  even  with  the  language  barrier,  but  she  was  finding  that  koldovstvoretz  was  a  lot  more  different  to  them  than  she  thought.   ❛  they’re  for  added  protection,  but  they’re  practically  like  any  mirskoy  dog.  ❜

What do you mean there's SHIPWRECKS IN LAKES???

“kindheartted replied to your post: i always forget...”

YOU'RE... TELLING ME THERE'S LAKES ALMOST AS BIG AS THE ENTIRETY OF MY COUNTRY? DUDE IS THIS REAL

i’m CACKLING right now oh my gosh!! i’m living for this, let me ramble about these stupid monster lakes. 

@inmydrcams it’s actually estimated that the total number of shipwrecks ACROSS the great lakes is in the range of 25,000, but the official (as in, they’re listed in a museum) numbers are  6,000 ships and 30,000 lives lost. this is just a wikipedia page but it gives a good rundown! it’s a weird thought, i know, but these things......aren’t so much /lakes/ as they are little seas??  these lakes are HUNDREDS of feet deep (lake superior is actually lol OVER A THOUSAND FEET DEEP) so i somtimes feel like “lake” is a bad word for them, they’re Monsters.
