Me: *writing*
Also me: *gets distracted thinking about scenes three chapters away and ends up staring into space with a stupid smile for 15 minutes, and feeling very productive*
Thusly me: *comes back to reality and looks at my screen, and sees where I actually am in the story* Well, shit.

More male characters who are interested in their mother's legacy. As a trope there's a lot of sons and daughters who follow in the father's footsteps and there's yes, girls who honor their mother, ect. But let's have more dudes who are like. Stumbling on their mom's secret fairy cottage or some shit. And they're like aight gotta make the tea
This has been stuck in my head for months. Also apparently I never interacted with this post when I first saw it so I had to plumb the depths of page 2 of Google to find it again.
And then it combined in my mind with the classic coming-of-age fantasy story of a mundane kid developing a birthmark with Powers ™ when they reach a certain age.
Now I am ✨obsessed✨ with the idea of Draco inheriting a surprise legacy, not from the Malfoy line he's identified with and worn proudly, but as the last heir of the Black blood. I don't know what it would be, probably something Dark and secretive, and I don't know what I'd do with it except have Narcissa whisk him away in the middle of the night to say "this is what is happening to you and why and why you must never tell anyone", but I need it.
