Zuz the Witch

Hooray for all content creators in all fandoms! Y’all make the world go round! This is April’s round-up of fics I read and recommend from multiple fandoms. This fic rec includes 9 fics from the Teen Wolf, Harry Potter, and One Direction fandoms!

Drarry (Harry Potter)

1. Nero su bianco by @zuzallove | oblivious boys in love - we get to see what Draco could have been thinking during 7th year Hogwarts - lots of drama, if you’re into it - Narcissa knows all and is great - 40k

September 1997. Hogwarts is under the regime of Voldemort and the Carrows. Finding himself alienated by both his friends and his supposed enemies, Draco puts quill to parchment, and writes letters. He addresses them to the only person he can think of, as Hogwarts rapidly falls into chaos and ruin: Harry Potter. He goes to great lengths to ensure the letters are never discovered, and he’s pretty certain he’s done a great job.

Until the day of his trial.

2. What’s Eating Draco Malfoy? by @actual-howlinglikeaseaturtle | this is a re-read so it’s v v good - cw eating disorder, suicide ideation, alcoholism - Ginny & Draco being friends is just so special to me - also everything is handled very well - 75k

“Tragedy struck today when Anorexia Nervosa claimed a young boy’s life,” he spoke loudly. “Very sad. He will be missed by one person, maybe two. Awful. Now to the weather with Carl!”

Ginny could not help herself; she burst out laughing. She didn’t know what was more absurd. The way Malfoy joked about his own death or the fact that he had watched muggle TV. Muggle news even.

“You’re a bloody lunatic!” she snorted, and Malfoy’s smile widened.

Sterek (Teen Wolf)

3. Exactly Like You by Jerakeen | Pride and Prejudice AU whoo whoo!! - werewolves are known - stereotypical A/B/O - but everything else is the same except Scott leaves town with Derek after S1 - 70k

“It was Jackson’s idea,” Lydia explains, looking perfectly serious while standing in front of a March Madness bracket of Beacon Hills’ eligible bachelors.

Jackson looks smug. “It only makes sense.”

Stiles meets Isaac’s eyes over the heads of all the crazy people in the room. Isaac shrugs with a slight wince. “’Tis the season.”

4. But Then What… by Stoney | Derek is the same age as Stiles! - I just love how they’re written like real (horny) teenagers - they’re just so bad at communication - also Jackson is a Jackass - 24k

Senior year is almost over, and all Stiles needs to do is keep his head down to survive. A teacher calls in a favor, leaving him stuck tutoring Derek Hale, one of the most popular jocks in school and a member of a group of douchecanoes who have bullied Stiles for years. He’s someone Stiles totally hates. Totally. Like, doesn’t like him even a little bit. DEFINITELY isn’t attracted to him.

Except that is a total lie. Fuck his life, seriously.

5. We’ll be Better Around the Second Time by @jordansaysno | I don’t know about y’all but this hits my wish fulfillment for running away from home in high school - side Isaac/Scott which is very cool - Stiles deserved better tbh - happy ending - 26k

It’s been months. Months of fading contact with the pack. Months of the silent treatment from his father. Months of nothing but himself and the occasional lesson with Deaton to entertain him.

It’s too much, and eventually, Stiles leaves.

For years, everything goes great, until of course his dad gets injured, and he is suddenly forced to deal with people he thought he left behind in his past for good.

6. Fireman Derek’s Crazy Pie [Cheeseburger Baby] by @thegloryof | this is such a classic and what I turn to when I’m really craving pie - NYC fic - some parts are just delicious to read (and not just for the food porn) - misunderstandings - 17k

“He can’t blame me for the fact that I live in a building full of people united in the singular effort to ogle Hot Fireman as often as humanly possible.“

Laura laughs, loud and echoing in the empty restaurant. "Hot firemen can make a girl do crazy things,” she agrees, nodding towards her brother’s name on the menu. “Derek won’t let me date anyone from his company, but that doesn’t mean I can’t appreciate the eye candy.”

“Send them my way,” Stiles suggests, finally loading up a forkful of pie. “Apparently I’m incompetent enough that I need to be babysat at all times, because it would be cheaper than dispatching a truck every time I try to use a kitchen appliance.”

7. Don’t Feed the Wolves by Amazonia_8 | another classic fic that’s also hot - cw: Derek thinks Stiles can’t consent - werewolves are known - the jailhouse scene is constantly replaying in my head - 30k

Stiles took the dare, because what else was he supposed to do when the whole lacrosse team was chanting his name? Even though the werewolf pack had left Beacon Hills years ago, nobody was stupid enough to set foot on the Hale property.

Except, apparently, Stiles.

Now he’s got a feral werewolf following him around town with the sole purpose of claiming Stiles as his own.

Larry (One Direction)

8. take my hand (and my heart and soul) by @anylessreal | aaaaaa this was so good! - just so much misunderstandings, but it’s so cool that the audience/Harry don’t know what’s going on too! - amnesia - friends to strangers to lovers - 45k

Harry feels nauseous when he opens his mouth. “Hey. Um, hi. It’s me,” he mumbles before realizing with a jolt that Louis might not have his number anymore. “It’s Harry… Styles,” he tacks on, screwing his eyes shut and pinching the bridge of his nose. This was a terrible idea.

There’s silence on the other end for a long time. Harry understands. He shouldn’t have called. He tries not to let the static swallow him whole.

“I – yeah. Hi,” Louis finally answers, slowly, awkwardly. “I um. Sorry. I heard about your accident. You’re alright?”

9. thinking about the t-shirt you sleep in by @absoloutenonsense | this was another re-read!! - traditional A/B/O - misunderstandings due to past abuse (not done by the boys) - get ready for some high/low emotions - 52k

Comission for @castielslostwings, one of my bidders on @ficfacers!

Her request was to draw that scene from Enchanted Ink, a destiel AU fic with lots of magical tatoos!

I don't know why spn fandom is saying that Jensen Ackles wants/wanted destiel Canon.

Must clarify that:

A) this is not a debate about if he's homophobic or not, people can like or dislike ships besides that (to me he's probably not homophobic but I think he doesn't like the ship) please feel free to make your own post about that if you want

B) I love destiel and never actually hoped it'd be Canon and I was fine with that until 15x18 made it relevant to the story development

C) this is not a thing to hate Jensen (I'm lowkey mad at him, but I also think he deserved better because his career/ reputation is in game and supernatural ended Dean so bad that I feel bad for him)

D) this post main goal is to have knowledge of what makes you think that he supports the ship, not to invalid your thoughts about him or the matter. (maybe I didn't see something important that he said and I'm here not informed of that, or maybe is an angle I can't see because I'm to fixed to one already, so please, tell me)

Anyway he never talks about it nor accepted related questions.

Yes he is friend of Misha, But friends don't have to like same ships

And he's been silent since the end of the show except to talk about other things ignoring the world theme of destiel like always (good for him)

So anyway the only comments I'll take is why you think he's supporting the ship, if you only think so "just because" or because you love Jensen those are valid and acceptable but I'm really curious about what makes you think that he supports the ship.

I think the idea that the writers on the show ‘accidentally’ created a love story between Dean and Cas is misleading and honestly kinda make them less guilty for the way they handled said story in the final episode. Writing is a (creative) process that requires several steps. To become a tv writer you need to study the medium, its history and rules (yes, tropes as well!).  So, yes, Misha and Jensen’s chemistry caught the writers by surprise in season 4 but coming season 5 (and onwards) they knew exactly what they were writing and how fans might interprete it to the point that Cas’ last scene was a love confession. 

(this goes for all the character development that was thrown out the window as well in the end).

TAKE A MOMENT TO STOP AND LOOK AT EACH OF THEIR REACTIONS

- one of the few times i've seen misha rendered speechless

-misha GLARING at jared

- jenmish rlly went "👁👁 looking directly at u" to eachother

The #SomethingToSay Campaign Needs You!

The C*W’s censorship of its shows has hidden our stories for far too long. But while the characters we love have had their voices silenced and identities erased, we can make our voices heard. We all have something we need to say, so let’s share stories of our own. 

LGBTQ+ and POC fans, as well as fans with disabilities, deserve respectful and impactful representation. When our stories are told, our communities are empowered. We have the opportunity to see our own value when we identify ourselves with characters, and when that opportunity is taken from us, the sense of loss is palpable – but we can’t afford to let that defeat us. 

There is immeasurable power in the simple act of speaking your truth. If enough of us speak up, we can change things.

This movement is about so much more than S*pernatural. Fans of any C*W show, past or present, who have been affected by poor representation are urged to participate in this hashtag. Every voice counts, and every voice can make a difference! Make sure to follow the guidelines. If you don’t have a Twitter account, make one – this is a movement that needs every last one of us. Let’s get this shit trending.

When: Sunday, November 29th Where: Twitter, (to a lesser extent) Tumblr

as requested by anon. pt2 patroclus!cas next.

(anon pls drop in and spare the deetz about their characters, i literally made this from a draft artwork i hadnt finished and minimum knowledge on achilles 😭)
