"And I Pray One Prayer--I Repeat It Till My Tongue Stiffens--Catherine Earnshaw, May You Not Rest As

Gryffindor: niche memes, coffee, messy bed, curls, stuffed toys, chocolate (loads of it), lion slippers, Lil Peep, dog person, unfinished poems, journals, unplanned trips.

Hufflepuff: bookworm, messy buns, tea, freshly baked cookies, angel’s breath, cute socks, secretly watches Sex Ed, 70s music.

Ravenclaw: spends days in library, kpop, dad jokes, fruit bowls, smoothies, yoga, hardcore feminist, read every Virginia Wolff book.

Slytherin: has a pet snake, pale, mom jeans, colorful hair, Beatles, movies with subtitles, mint chocolate, cacti, writes songs, owns a lighter collection.

Sir please that's my emotional support stack of books that i haven't read

watching spirited away for the first time is like… being trapped in the melancholic atmosphere…. the tragic isolation and madness of no face….. feeling the same horrified smallness chihiro does.. the hopelessness of losing her misunderstanding but loving parents…… haku’s quiet betrayal, and the relief of finding out he really was a friend… the curiousity of kamaji’s boiler room, or yubaba’s decorated office…. the hope for lin to make it out of the bath house one day, the wonder of the shaddowy figures on the bus……. the world makes you feel so small and part of a true and rich world that you can only give a brief, passing glance before you must part from it, never knowing but wishing to one day see it again

Humanity did a lot of things wrong but we still have coffee, books and trench coats.

🌼  [you wake up early on a beautiful day only to remember you have nowhere to go and no responsibilities for the day. the dazzling sun is shining bright through your window and suddenly all the worries that clouded your head before have all disappeared. you feel light and airy. you have the whole day ahead of you.]

💔  [sitting at an old cafe in the corner of an old town, you reminisce about forgotten loves and what could have been. you feel heavy and drowsy as the rain pours outside the window. you see a couple sitting across the cafe from you, holding hands and enjoying their hot tea, and you smile. love is all around.]

💥  [you find yourself standing in the most strange museum-like building you’ve ever visited. no one else is to be seen, only you. wandering around, you find that every room you enter is a new experience that takes your breath away. it’s like entering a dream of your own making. suddenly, you aren’t tethered to earth anymore, but have become a dream yourself.]

💌  [your heart is soft and your footsteps are light as air as you walk barefoot across an open field, covered with wildflowers and plants. you think of your lover as you smell the beautiful roses and your heart soars. all you want to do is smile sheepishly and be soft. you love love.]

👅  [finding yourself amidst sweaty bodies and dazzling neon lights, you feel swept away with the rhythm of the beautiful people swaying around you. no one seems to be talking, just moving their bodies to the rhythm, just as you are. a stranger catches your eye and smiles at you, sinfully. you take the hint and move towards them. it’s going to be a fun night.]

✨  [you lay atop a soft blanket in the middle of a field, with no light other than the beautiful full moon in the sky. the universe is one with you. if you close your eyes, you can imagine laying on top of the light clouds and drifting somewhere far away.]

🚗  [the car is filled with laughter and harmonious singing of you and your closest friend as you drive towards your distant destination. everything feels right with the world as you sing at the top of your lungs and laugh about nothing in particular. the low-hanging moon is lighting your path and accompanying you on this journey.]

📢  [you stand alone in the middle of a huge but empty mall. you have an eerie and unexplainable feeling. no one seems to be in sight, but you caught a sign of movement from atop the escalator. you still aren’t sure if this is a dream or not. these are the songs playing on the speakers in the building as you navigate your way across this predicament.]

What’s REALLY inside the Ravenclaw Common Room

A/N: Not a request, but I thought we all need a pick-me-up today. Enjoy everyone, and feel free to request anything you’d like to see me write about ~

Seriously, do you realize how aesthetically pleasing the common room is?

I mean, like the blues and bronze made you feel like freakin’ royalty once you walk in

the most musical of the the common rooms - there’s soft sound of choir singing because of the magic, and the blue hues really calms you down REAL fast

I am 100% SURE that there’s AROMATHERAPY going on inside the common room:

The Ravenclaw Common Room

(As imagined by me)

Key Points:

*

*Controlled Mess

- Messy areas are better for creativity

- Clean areas are better for studying

- Solution?

Self cleaning clutter, most of the objects in the room, books vases, etc. have the ability to move around. They tiddy themselves up around kids who are cramming for an exam, and hang around students working on their sketchbooks.

*

*Take a Book Leave a Book Library:

- the shelves in the common room have everything from Mockingjay to Kingsley Shacklebolt’s autobiography.

-kids will leave behind their old textbooks for kids who can’t afford them

- there are also some full sketchbooks and aesthetic bullet journals just because kids wanted to share their work with everyone without looking like show offs

- and there are the more sketchy shelves full of folders of student’s essays and notes to be “referenced and repurposed”

- because Ravenclaws get that sometimes you will literally scream if you have to read one more word of that pretentious textbook

- or you hate arthrithmancy and don’t know why you took it and so you’re just going to borrow Jenny’s essay from six years ago and see what happens.

*

*Group Study Areas:

- larger desks and benches, both for a comfortable amount of space for studing alone, and to encorage collaboration.

- two heads are better than one

- but sometimes you just need a lot of space for your eight textbooks and seventeen reference photos and that’s fine too.

*

*Closed Off Beds:

- stained glass canopies that cast beautiful colored light, but that you can’t see into

- folding dividers instead of curtains that are enchanted to be sound proof when latched so that you can sing or scream your heart out

- some much needed privacy in the dorms

- sound proof walls are better than curtains (suck on that Gryffindor)

*

*Most Importantly:

INNOVATION!

-students want a ceiling like in the great hall? They figure the heck out of that enchantment.

- don’t like it anymore the next year? They undo that shit.

Bulletin boards filled with group study sessions

- a magical explosion from someone trying to make up a new spell happens about once a week

- all in all the Ravenclaw common room changes more drastically and more often than any other.

(Imma draw the other common rooms and dorms too, so if you’re a Hufflepuff, Slytherin, or Gryffindor with suggestions for what you would want in your dream common room let me know)

I am a simple girl, I look at rain and go absolutely feral.
