The outcome is only uncertain for those who disbelieve.

hey remember how silver spent a whole half season trying to get flint and madi to tolerate each other to no avail whatsoever and then he drowned and accidentally left them alone for like 5 minutes and came back to them being bffs for life? that was such good shit

I like to think that Rita Skeeter totally lost whatever renown she had after the war and so Harry and Ginny and the others like to pick up her stories for fun without worrying about the effect it’ll have on their image? Like Harry just idly turns a page every morning and goes, “Oh, we’re getting a divorce.” And Ginny yawns as she fetches two coffee mugs and says, “Is it because I’m snogging Neville?” “No,” says Harry, “it’s because I’m snogging Neville.” And Ginny slams down her mug and says, “Goddamnit, Harry, let me have my affair in peace, would you?”

They have this sort of conversation in public, sometimes. Especially in places (the Leaky Cauldron, the Three Broomsticks, etc) where they know that it’ll get back to Skeeter.

I like to imagine that the kids get in on it as well. Like Albus and Scorpius can be over heard in the Great Hall with the latest Potter Family gossip

“Did you hear that your dad is leaving your mum for my father?”

“I thought mum was leaving dad for your mum, Scorp?”

“No that was last week. Your mum is with your aunt Luna right now.”

“Ah, my mistake. Pass the pumpkin juice.”

Please tell me that the cursed child was just another bullshit story that the kids fed to her.

New head-canon: Rita Skeeter wrote The Cursed Child.

I’ve been ignoring this post in my notifs for ages but this is now the only explanation for the Cursed Child that I will accept.

This…makes TCC so much better.

You either die a beloved children’s author or live long enough to become Rita Skeeter.

Now that ain’t fair; JK endorsed the script, but if she’d written it would have been at least as good as Fantastic Beasts.

Damning with faint praise, I see.

mary read being written into the story last minute was the writers’ way of saying ‘although things are already ending on a super gay note, rest assured, it doesn’t end here, gayer things are yet to come’ and i for one think that’s peak storytelling

“It was such a beautiful moment between 2 women who’s paths don’t necessarily cross. It was the only moment that Anne and Eleanor ever really got to be on the same side. There was something about that thing of women making sure that debts are paid. And things like that there has to be punity, there has to be some kind of retribution.”

- Miguel De Cervantes, “Don Quixote”

you know sometimes it shocks me too but google really is free and it’s right there in your hands

I love that this post is both a really wide-eyed appreciation for the amazing time we live in and a really sarcastic passive-aggressive way to tell people to just fucking google shit

This post feels like my heart

Those men rose to their stations because they are peerless when it comes to shaping the world to their will; in creating a narrative and wielding it to compel men’s hearts and minds.
