they would, and they did.

I lay awake at night dreading the day when a very potter musical is no longer outrageously funny to people because they don’t understand all of the painfully 2009 cultural references that are made

remember in goblet of fire when minerva says ‘potter’s a boy, not a piece of meat!’

imagine harry telling her everything after the battle of hogwarts, telling her about how dumbledore raised him like a pig for slaughter, and how he had to die and mcgonagall gets so goddamned mad

she loses control for the first time that harry’s EVER seen and she’s actually yelling, she’s so pissed that harry was seventeen and he had to accept death and dumbledore KNEW he would have to die and NEVER TOLD HIM

and harry’s about to cry because yeah his friends would be devastated if he was gone but NO ONE got this damn pissed that dumbledore had raised him so that he could die at the right time and mcgonagall’s in the middle of a rant and he just shoots up and hugs her and she’s stunned into silence but after a moment she hugs back and it’s great

and then she goes up to her office and starts screaming at dumbledore’s portrait because ‘i don’t care if it had to happen, albus, he is a CHILD-’

Quick Guide to Punctuating Dialogue

“This is a line of dialogue,” she said.

“This,” he said, “is a sentence split by a speech tag.”

“This is a full sentence,” she said. “This is a new sentence.”

“This is a sentence followed by an action.” He smiled. “They’re separate sentences, because I didn’t speak by smiling.”

A Note on Pronouns

I write Wolfstar fanfiction. (What? Really? No way! Shocking! I had no idea!)

It usually goes unnoticed, but I’m very particular with the way that I write. I’ll use different words and different writing styles depending on which character’s perspective a story is written from. I also try to pay close attention to the language that I use and how I use it.

This is my take on pronouns, specifically in regards to Remus’ lycanthropy: 

James and Peter always refer to the Wolf as “you”. They see the Wolf as being a part of Remus, an extension of Remus. The Wolf is as much Remus as the human version of him is.

James: You were great last night. You were actually really easy to handle!

Peter: …You ate a rabbit.

  Sirius always refers to the Wolf as “him”. He knows that Remus hates when he’s associated with the wolf inside, so Sirius tries his best to respect Remus’ wishes and avoid talking about the Wolf as if he is the same thing as Moony. 

Sirius: Yeah, he kind of chased the rabbit around for a while and… well… that’s why you’re not hungry this morning.

Remus always refers to the Wolf as “it”. He hates humanizing it, giving it person-like qualities like gender and emotions. In Remus’ eyes, the wolf is nothing but a monster; a vile creature that has no rhyme or reason, no personality, no real motive for its actions, nothing except blood lust and hunger. Remus doesn’t consider the Wolf and himself to be the same thing. He doesn’t even consider the Wolf to be a real animal. It’s just a beast.

Remus: Well, I’m just glad it didn’t hurt any of you guys…

And I’ve been fairly consistent with my pronoun use, making sure that the way the boys talk about the Wolf also reflects their views on what it is relative to Moony.

Just some MES musings! (MES= MaurauderEraSmut! That’s me!)

8th Year, Draco is tentative friends with the trio, they study together. Draco and Harry are shagging in secret (everyone knows Draco is with someone, no one suspects Harry).

Harry snagged some cauldron cakes and passed one to Draco.

“Fattening me up, Potter?” Draco asked, even as he bit into it. “I am capable of feeding myself.”

Harry snorted. “Wouldn’t know it from your skinny arse.”

“Look at my arse often, do you?” Draco smirked.

“It’s a fine arse,” Harry said, winking at him.

“Watch yourself!” Draco snapped playfully. “This arse is taken.”

“Quite often, I imagine,” Harry couldn’t help but reply.

Across the table, Hermione inhaled sharply, and Ron choked on his mouthful.
