hey! i just spent about four days straight listening to lily and the art of being sisyphus (the ffn app lets people do that, apparently) and i just popped in to say... wow. christ. will be VERY highly recommending it to anyone who asks.
second part- is the book finished? should i turn on notiffs? thank you ok bye
Ooh thank you! There is also an ongoing podfic version done by Sam Gabriel if youāre looking for audio versions.Ā Itās very good and Iām going to take a stab in the dark and say highly likely to be better than the ffn app.
And no, itās not finished, weāre just at the end of a major arc. Keep the notifications on.

itās been too long since i read consuming shadows so when i saw you posted a new chapter... well iāve simply been rereading it. itās BETTER than i remember... good lord. the other person was right, the yule ball is one of my absolute favorite scenes. hadrian should be high more often dhdhsjdj
Aww thank you so much! Iām so glad you liked it!Ā
The Yule Ball does seem to be a lot of peopleās favourite moment. I like it because itās one of the few times we get to see Hadrian actually act his age and have fun!
thanks to the release of the hamilton recording iām rereading your fics, and god. god!!!
OML Iām hoping this is a good reaction. If so, Iām glad youāre enjoying them!
The ones on here or my AO3? I think Iāve crossposted most of it, but I canāt remember since itās been so long. I had wondered how long it would be before there was a surge in hits and notes on my stuff. I knew it was coming...I anticipate my Christmas Jamilton fic to get the most traffic again though.
hey! i just wanted to ask y'all to be careful. the gingers have no soul joke is rooted in antisemitism, and i know there was already some discourse over people drawing a literal demon with jewish features. have a good one!!
Hey all, Iām really sorry, I honestly didnāt know it had those connotations. Iāll take the posts down

Okay, let me just begin and end with the crown jewel Tom Riddle. I canāt roast the rest becauseĀ after I am done with Tom, I will be all roasted out. It is long. Feel free to skip past this if youāre not willing to read me kicking him down.
(I swear to you all that I love Tom, but I am also incredibly hard on his depiction in the books in general.)
Youāre telling me at 15-16 he couldnāt defeat a Harry Potter in the Chamber of Secrets? Youāre telling me that your narcissism and ego is so large that you dedicated an entire 2 pages to monologuing about your skills and abilities instead of just defeating your sworn enemy with an Avada Kedavra?
He takes theĀ āI do it for the dramaā to a whole new level, because that, my friend, is drama. He would sooner be bested by a 12-year-old than take the path with the least melodrama available.Ā
Letās fast forwardĀ to the Goblet of Fire. What in the hell was he thinking? I know, I know, he wasnāt thinking at all. Between splicing his soul to pieces and existing as a shade for about a decade, you too would go insane, but see, hereās the thing. I donāt want to give him the benefit of the doubt, Iāll show you why later. For now, back to the entire plot in the Goblet of Fire.
Instead of, you know, taking the path of least resistance by taking the blood from someone else that he esteems to be his enemy to reanimate, no. He has to set up where it is Harry, in a tournament, provides him with this key ingredient. If he feared the love protection Lily put on Harry, then hell, with how rough Quidditch is, he could have had someone steal a bit of blood unwillingly given from Harry after getting slugged by a bludger or something.Ā
Voldemort could have done without the entire plan. But you know, his taste for drama started young. I suspect he did this all so that he could have that dramatic entrance in the graveyard. No other reason.
Okay, I am going to end with my favorite one, because I think it was silly. First, why would he if he was above the work of a typical death eater, did he have to personally go to the Potterās house? Why did he not send someone to off the Longbottoms? If he was truly concerned with the prophecy being what it was, why did he not kill two burns with one stone and also set his sights on the war he was fighting and winning?Ā
For someone that is esteemed to be both a prodigy and guile, he lacked every single one of the qualities necessary to fall into these categories. He was impulsive as a youth and as his snake-self. He acted with his emotions as opposed to his mind, which, is disappointing. He did it all for the pleasure of creating an intricate and dramatic entrance/exit/reveal as opposed to what made sense.
Harry Potter was certainly lucky.Ā
Lucky that LV could make these mistakes over and over again.
lovely chapter as always!!! love it when you update :) i have to ask tho- did harry put on a shirt in between the baron & orion coming to collect him??
HA. Letās say yes, lol. š¤£š¤£ While he was waiting for the journal to finish decoding.Ā
