I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted (life is so busy!) but I had to come on to share that I proposed to @themalfoymanner this evening on our quiet beach at sunset, and she said yes!!!!!!!! :) We are getting married!!! I can’t believe I’m lucky enough to call this incredible woman my fiancée. When I think back on how we first started talking on tumblr years ago and how much we gone through together, I am filled with endless gratitude. Thank you to all of you who have followed our relationship and supported us every step of the way 💙

“Her heart was a secret garden and the walls were very high.”
sometime in the near future you will wake up at 3AM beside the person you love most in the world; wearing next to nothing, you will touch their cheek and they will sleepily pull you closer. the sky will be pink and gold and reflecting onto your love’s bare back. you will feel safe and secure.
Who else can’t wait until they get their first apartment with their girlfriend and get to sleep with them in a big bed and have lazy Saturday mornings and go to the farmers market and hold hands and buy flowers for the kitchen table and just finally feel at peace with the world in general because you’re in each other’s lives forever?
How do you make it work at long distance?
We talk as much as we can and write together almost every day, which is incredibly intimate and emotional and makes me feel so, so close to her. And we do what we can to show that we’re thinking about each other and appreciate each other. And idk, I love her so much that it transcends distance, so I always feel like she’s with me
And we won’t be long distance for long! We’ll be together soon enough, so waiting a little until then seems like nothing :)
asdfjklfs you’re so sweet :) Writing with you is the greatest privilege next to actually getting to be your girlfriend.
hi, how are you and Emily!
I’ve had this in my inbox for several days because I haven’t had the time to give this the response it deserves. But today is National Girlfriends Day, so I’m making time to give you the scoop on my incredible girlfriend and our relationship.
@themalfoymanner and I are so fucking wonderful, thank you for asking :) Every day that she’s been in my life has been brighter than all the rest of my life combined, and now that we’re officially together, I wake up every morning with a shy, ecstatic smile on my face knowing she’s mine and I’m hers. Sometimes she calls me her personal sun, but the fact of the matter is she’s the one that makes me burn- bright and full and warm.
I should have known why ever since the first time we spoke (in character, in a RP), I’ve fallen head over heels for every single character she’s portrayed. Writing with her is a glimpse into the most beautiful mind I will ever know, and every piece that she shares with me is a gift. She’s the mirror of my soul, the moon of my life, and I fall for her all over again every day.
I will always be grateful for this fandom, for this website. Because even though there will always be times where I feel upset or disconnected with the fandom, whether it be because of shitty publications or hateful anons or something in between, it brought me to her. And that is worth anything and everything.
Is it weird for me to ship you and icanhelpyouthere really hard? I dont know you are just so cute together
*blushes and grins*
It’s not weird at all, this is super sweet! And actually… we really are together now and are currently figuring out where we should live together :)
I can’t wait to start a life with her filled with haphazard stacks of books in every room, snuggly cats, passionate ramblings about Quadrophenia, lots of tattoos, porning it up together, shipping everyone we encounter, and decorating our walls with her beautiful paintings and photographs
*gently screams at how wonderful everyone’s being*
@ladyamina said: Wait really?????? It’s canon????? Like for real?????? I am more excited about this than I’ve ever been about anything in my own life
Yes, it’s canon!!!! Also, omg, you’re so adorable, I just want to hug you (and all your anons are right, you are so full of warmth and make everything around you brighter, I love you so much. And I really want to read your fic because their relationship in it sounds absolutely beautiful! And you’ve helped so many people and just- ah, I’m so grateful that we have you in our fandom. Sometimes I think about you reading HP with your students and how much Harry’s resilience has inspired them and want to cry with happiness)
@dictacontrion said: holy shit you two congratulations!!!!!!!! you are fucking ADORABLE together and you make each other RADIANT and I am so so happy for you both!! wishing you all the love and happiness! <3
This is so fucking sweet and amazing and I got so flustered reading it that I accidentally dropped my phone in a very dramatic fashion and spooked my cat. You’re the best :)
@noeeon said: Femme and I sosososo happy for you!!
I wish I had the words to convey how inspiring we find you and your relationship! You and Femme complement each other so beautifully and your writing is so emotional and gorgeous and magical, and the fact that you met each other through fandom and have built this incredible relationship out of your love for these silly boys is just… it gave us the hope and courage to take that leap for ourselves. Thank you so much, for this and for- well, for everything, you are one of the kindest, purest, warmest souls I’ve yet to encounter <3 <3
I am legit sitting here with tears in my eyes, so very, very, very happy for you both. I was lucky enough to find someone in fandom whom I love and adore and share awesome cats and stacks of books and fannish theories and a cozy little home with, and I wish all the happiness and joy and beauty in the world on both of you. It’s funny–when we met you this weekend, I turned to Noe afterwards and said “if they’re not together yet, they will be” because you were just so RIGHT together, and now I’m ridiculously flailing because YOU TWO ARE ADORABLE AND WONDERFUL AND YAY FOR FANDOM-FOUND LOVE IT IS A BEAUTIFUL THING.
Ahhhh, thank you everyone! I can't stop smiling and get so flustered every time I see a new comment on here. And @femmequixotic, you have no idea how much that all means to us! Like Emily said, you and @noeeon are such an inspiration, we were both bowed over at how incredible your relationship is. You reassured us that this can work. And the fact that you could tell and believed in us makes us feel so elated and so full of hope! Thank you both so much!

Within the Hogwarts library, old books can be found on the beginnings of magic. For some students, “A History of Magic” is more than sufficient. But some others delve further, craving more of how their world came to be and seeking knowledge about the essence dancing through their veins. In a secluded section that seems to have its own pulsing aura, there are books detailing ancient forms of witchcraft. The books whisper to each other when someone passes, and if one listened closely enough, it would be heard that the voices are female. These writings focus on an instinctive sisterhood, holding the secrets to traditions now considered antiquated. When a few young female students discover these books, which are brimming with both tales and instructions, they decide to form a school club. This group, which has many titles but has earned the nickname, “The Reawakening,” welcomes anyone to join them in learning more about their ancestors. Before too long, they're drawing on the forms of magic expounded upon in the books, holding meetings in which they communicate to the magic residing within each other and combine their power to achieve new feats. Girls from all the houses participate, forming new bonds of friendship and dictating their discoveries and experiments in their own book- a book which will one day have its own place on the Hogwarts shelves.

“everyone thinks i’m special,” he said at last. “all those people in the leaky cauldron, professor quirrell, mr. ollivander … but i don’t know anything about magic at all. how can they expect great things? i’m famous and i can’t even remember what i’m famous for. i don’t know what happened when vol-, sorry – i mean, the night my parents died.”
