9 Quotes That Really Should’ve Been In The Movies

Why did we stop with ballroom dances??? Like seriously to waltz around a room with a handsome stranger to classical music while others look at us with envy and after the music ends both of you with flushed cheeks, breathing fast, the sexual tension ; that was the shit.

masterlist of resources for writing disabled/chronically ill/neurodiverse characters

Disclaimer: I do not have every condition listed here (though I do have quite a few). I have verified as much as I could that each resource is a good source of information. If any of these is misleading or wrong in any way PLEASE let me know. I will fix it accordingly.

Wanting to branch into writing more diverse characters? Wanting to include representation for those who are neurodivergent, disabled, or chronically ill? The first step to branching out is to research the various conditions/diseases/disorders your character could have. You also need to research what day to day life would be like for them. These links should provide a starting base of information in writing and portraying these characters:

Right here on tumblr. there are tons of posts under tags related to the topics as well as the “#chronically ill” tag and “#spoonie” tag

Try and find either government websites or websites that belong to the specific research groups for those conditions

Psychiatry journals/texts

Reach out to those you know with a chronic illness (but ALWAYS be sure to ask if it is okay. for some people talking about their illnesses is traumatizing and personal. others (like me) are okay with it!

If there are illnesses not here that you would like represented, let me know! I plan on keeping this updated and continuing adding to it. Every link should take you directly to the source/post.

Remember, a lot of these are more common than you think. there will always be someone out there who feels represented by a character with one of these conditions/disorders/diseases. this kind of representation helps normalize the idea that it is okay to exist as a neurodivergent, chronically ill, or disabled person. you are allowed to have adventures and live a happy life.

Are You Ready?

Charlie Weasley x Reader

Plot: Charlie leaves Hogwarts and you’re left behind to finish your 7th year. While he’s in Romania, the two of you write back and forth. 

Warnings: just fluff :’)

‘Tap tap tap’

Lifting your eyes from your potions assignment, you see an owl perched on the windowsill near your bed. You pick yourself up to open the window, take the letter from the tawny bird, and give it a treat to say thank you. The first thing you notice is Charlie’s neat handwriting across the front of the letter, the second being the faint scent of smoke emanating from the paper. You smile to yourself and carefully tear into the parchment. 

My dearest (Y/N),

My days seem to last forever without you in them. I miss you more than you could imagine- more than a cool breeze on a hot summer’s day, more than the desert misses rain, more than...someone who misses something a lot. 

Sorry, I ran out of poetic things to say.

Anyways, I truly do miss you more than I could ever describe. As amazing as it is being around dragons and following my dreams, I love you almost as much as I love these wonderful creatures and I find myself wanting to hold you, and kiss you, and hear your beautiful laugh again. It’s definitely a good thing that we’ll get to see each other in a few weeks for Christmas at the Burrow; I don’t think I could go another month without you. See you soon, darling.

All my love, 

Charlie

You couldn’t stop the tears that fell from your eyes. Charlie had been away in Romania for months now as you stayed behind to finish your 7th year at Hogwarts, and you missed him more than you’d ever tell your friends. As supportive and understanding as they were, you knew they’d tease you about it. 

After reading through the letter a few more times, you picked up your quill and moved your homework to the side to write back to your dragon-loving boyfriend.

Charlie, my love,

As much as I love your so-called poetry, I miss your smile even more. And all your cute little freckles. I’m beyond excited to see you again soon, and even more excited that I get to spend another Christmas with you and your family. Even Fred and George, the little rats.

Merlin, I can’t even describe how ready I am to see you again. Reading your letter alone made me cry, so expect tears the second I see you, love.

Here’s to hoping these next few weeks go by as quickly as possible.

Forever yours,

(Y/N)

After making sure Charlie’s owl was well rested and fed, you tied your letter to it and sent it on its way back to Romania.

Three weeks later, you step off of the Hogwarts Express, ready to finally see your boyfriend after what felt like years. You searched the crowd, and the second you spotted that familiar red hair, you took off running and jumped into his strong arms. 

“I’m so happy to see you, you have no idea,” you giggled as he lifted you from the ground and spun you around a few times. 

“Believe me, love, I have an idea. Because I missed you just as much...or maybe even more,” Charlie smiled. His hands cupped your face as he pulled you into a slow, passionate kiss, feeling all the emotions coming through. You both could feel how much you’d missed each other. 

“Well,” you said, pulling away and grabbing your trunk. “Ready to head off to the Burrow?”

“Ready, darling.”

My home will be a home with no loud anger, no explosive rage, no slamming doors or breaking glass, no name calling, shaming or blackmail. My home will be gentle, it will be warm. It will keep my loved ones safe. No fear, no hurt and no worries.

Anyone else ready to uhhhhh not live like this anymore

Fred and George turned to each other and said together, ’Wow, we’re identical!’ ’I dunno though, I think I’m still better looking,’ said Fred, examining his reflection in the kettle.

I’ve been writing on tumblr for maybe close to a month or just a bit over? I’m not sure how long, but can I just say that I haven’t had much trouble on here. I’ve had great feedback and responses to my work and I really appreciate it. So what I’m about to say isn’t about me at all, just about fic writers in general, as clearly some people need to read this.

The thing about fic writers is, we do this completely willingly. We don’t get paid to sit for maybe hours at a time composing a fic that might only get 100 notes, most of which being likes which doesn’t give it much reach. We don’t stress over if a piece is good or not before posting to get a good grade that might help us in the future. At first, we do it for ourselves, then later on we start doing it for other people once we get reach and attention. It is fun, fic writing is so fun because you get to create ideas of your own with characters you and many other people may love.

But fic writing doesn’t become fun when it’s forced. Writers shouldn’t have to decide on whether to complete an important assignment or complete a fic to satisfy many angry followers mad that there hasn’t been a fic update recently. Writers shouldn’t have to deal with angry complaints about being denied a fic requests because they aren’t comfortable with writing a certain idea or because they just don’t want to. Writers shouldn’t be criticised on their writing when so much effort went into it, and they did it for themselves. Writers shouldn’t feel obliged to write a request because they’ll get backlash if they don’t. We write for free, and we write for us, so why do so many people believe it is acceptable to demand new fics from writers or be rude to them?

Writers are people. Just like you. We have our own lives outside of writing, we have our own feelings outside of it too. And you never know what somebody is going through. So your snide comment about how a writer didn’t take your request might be the straw that broke the camel’s back.

That’s why feedback on posts means so much to us. We spend so much of our free time writing these complex fics on our own accord, so the least someone could do is give it some feedback. Tell the writer what you enjoyed about it, reblog it so other people reach the fic instead of just liking it and not doing anything to help the writer from that point onwards.

What I’m trying to say is, if you haven’t grasped the idea yet, please be nice to fic writers. Instead of demanding a new fic, ask a writer if they’re okay. Instead of being rude, try being nice, and if you don’t have anything nice to say then don’t say anything at all. We are still people, just like you.

If you’ve gotten this far, thank you and I hope you have a good day. 💜
