the happy ending he deserved
Always reblog Elton. He deserves the world.
Small happy things
- Sliding on hard floors in socks
- Holding a hot drink on a cold day
- On a hot day, filling a cup with ice and breathing into it - you can smell the cold
- Lighting a candle and watching it burn
- Standing at the edge of shelter and watching rain fall right in front of you
- Finding an old book, opening to a random page and smelling it
- Warm milk late at night
- Glow in the dark stars on a ceiling at night
- Fairy lights at night
- Ukulele playing with stormy sounds in the background
- Listening to storms
- Making a microwave mug cake and eating it, knowing that you are capable of creating something with your own hands that is good and has a purpose
- Finding out last minute that its a long weekend and you have a whole extra day free of school/work to do anything
- The complete peace and silence of being underwater
- Wearing comfy hoodies/ jumpers that are several sizes too big
- The smell of baking cookies
- Running in the rain and staying at the perfect temperature because as you heat up, the rain cools you down
- Standing on a high place in the wind and feeling like you could fly

Newt Scamander
Newt Scamander: [rescues an incredibly rare and powerful magical creature]
Newt Scamander: I think I’m gonna call him Frank
This illustration from the official Crimes of Grindelwald screenplay depicts the blood pact pendant inside of a freaking heart.
I’m gonna go and send flowers to the illustrator now …
One thing I did like about Crimes of Grindelwald was Jude Law’s expression when Dumbledore was looking into the mirror of Erised. I had expected it to be sad, maybe disgusted, angry, confused. Instead there was this profound sadness and pain, but the hint of a smile & to me it just really seemed as if he was fully aware of this weakness of his (the former love for Grindelwald, even the remnants of it that he continued to feel to this day) and he was able to forgive himself for it. So, so nuanced and bittersweet.
We’re all shitting on Jude Law’s Dumbledore loving Johnny Depp’s grinch ass looking Grindelwald like we wouldn’t form a blood pact with Jamie Campbell Bower in a second like some people just don’t age well ok
Okay, but y’all realize how quickly the horocruxes would have been found if someone told Grindelwald that Voldemort had the hots for Dumbledore?

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets - Chapter One: The Worst Birthday
“Happy birthday to me … happy birthday to me …” No cards, no presents, and he would be spending the evening pretending not to exist. He gazed miserably into the hedge. He had never felt so lonely. More than anything else at Hogwarts, more even than playing Quidditch, Harry missed his best friends, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger. They, however, didn’t seem to be missing him at all. Neither of them had written to him all summer, even though Ron had said he was going to ask Harry to come and stay.
