“Your naked body should only belong to those who fall in love with your naked soul.”

I love reading Slytherin harry fics
I can't remember which fic has the one snake familiar that is white.
Christ died for me, I NEED to radically change for Him. I cannot without Him, though, nor do I believe that I'd truly want to without Him changing me already.
Nevertheless, I need to change from who I am now, who has already been changed from who he was.
Make no mistake, the Dursleys are terrible people and unquestionably abusers.
But the one favor they did for Harry was never pretend as though they loved him. Vernon and Petunia made it very clear: You are not a part of this family. We don’t like you and never will.
They didn’t try to frame their abuse as “for Harry’s own good.” They didn’t try to make Harry believe that he could earn their love through good behavior. They didn’t tell him they loved him just as much as they loved Dudley, then subtly treat him like shit.
They were honest. And that honesty allowed Harry to put some emotional distance between himself and the Dursleys, even before Hogwarts. Because if the Dursleys don’t like him, then he didn’t have to like them.
Instead of vying for the Dursleys’ affection, Harry basically snarks his way through childhood, relishing in his status as an outsider. His early descriptions of the Dursleys are practically dripping with razor-sharp snark about their appearances and foibles. He finds comfort in the knowledge that a) he dislikes the Dursleys as much as they dislike him, and b) he alone sees these cartoonishly awful people for who they are.
PeterMJ quotes that make me lose my shit
“My wife is strong. My wife is smart. My wife is everything I could never be without the bite from that spider.”
“I don’t like bullies and I don’t scare easy. My loyalty runs deep, you sad little man. [...] He is my husband, you’re just some dude.”
“Her hair smelled like strawberries and cream. I love her... more than life.”
“I love you MJ. God, I love you so much. I want you to know that every night and every morning.”
“I love you too, Peter. You’re my lover and my husband and my very best friend. I love you.”
“The cheerleader and the science nerd. No one thought it would last. I did.”
“After decades together I know you better than I know myself. I know everything you’re about to say, I know your worries and your dreams. You’re my heart, Mary Jane Watson... you’re my jackpot.”
“I liked him because he enjoyed life... and even more importantly... he wore a mask too.”
“I’ll wait for you for as long as you need. Until the stars turn cold and fall from the sky. Whichever comes first.”
“I know I’m my heart of hearts that you and I were always meant to be together. [...] whatever he does to pulls us apart will have to be bigger and stronger than what brought us together and kept us together no matter what happened. And there’s no power in the universe big enough for a job like that. Not the devil, not god. Not anybody.”
“Thing is— I love him. I love him so much I can’t even think of a way to properly express it to you. It’s in my skin. I can actually feel it in my skin.
And the ever classic:
“Something in her makes me gentle. Makes me shy. Makes me strong. Makes me happy to be alive. And maybe that’s the thing. She makes me, she makes me whole. She completes me. [...] So here’s the thing god... I know you and I, we’ve got issues but right now... just for tonight... thank you. Thank you for her.”
crazy how this happened and then absolutely nothing followed. what a great ending to the sekai taikai!

Favorite Hairtstyle/ Season (44.7%), Season 5. COBRA KAI.
Every time I see a post saying Anakin and Padmé would be neglectful and parents if they were to raise Luke and Leia in an AU where Anakin never turned, I lose a bit more hope for the Star Wars fandom…
