a young woman was standing in the doorway, a woman of such breathtaking beauty that the room seemed to have become strangely airless. She was tall and willowy with long blonde hair and appeared to emanate a faint, silvery glow.

absolutely obsessed with the fact that some college kids managed to convince the entire world that hufflepuffs are good finders and it’s accepted as canon
Cursed Child didn't happen because Ginny Potter's firstborn James Sirius would've never teased his little brother past the point where it actually hurt him, he was taught better.
The moment the sorting hat shouted "SLYTHERIN" and Albus walked to his new house table, dejected and green eyes staring at his older brother's brown ones, silently pleading for James to somehow take him back to the Gryffindor table, James Sirius immedietaly mouthed "it's okay" to his brother, gave him a huge reassuring smile and thumbs up.
Albus didnt return the smile, but the Slytherin table didnt seem as scary as it was seconds ago.
Once the feast is done, and the first years were instructed to their new dorms, Albus was ready to change into his pajamas and forget about the disaster that was the reality of him being a Slytherin, the only Slytherin in his vast, big, Gryffindors family, until the Prefect of the House knocked on his dorm and said that someone was looking for him outside the door of the Common Room.
Suddenly a sight of messy jet black hair came to Albus' sight as he pushed his way out of the door, "James?" He asked, not really expecting to see his brother here.
"Er," his brother started awkwardly, feet tapping against the floor, even though he always seemed so confident, James' sudden growth spurt kind of made him act like a broken enchanted willow tree, as if he didn't know how to stand on his newly elongated legs yet. "How, uh, how are you?"
Albus shrugged, looking down on his feet, "I don't know"
There was several good minutes of silence from both boys that it almost annoyed Albus, why was his brother even doing? Calling him out just for both of them to stand in front of the Slytherin door looking like two awkward idio-
"They're not bad, you know" James mumbled.
Albus rolled his eyes, Dad had given him this speech, and it kinda helped him but Albus didn't need to hear it again. "I know, Severus Snape was a Slytherin and he-"
"What?" James scrunched up his nose, shaking his head, "Nah, not him, he's a hero alright, but Uncle Nev- I mean, Professor Longbottom, still said he was kind of a git"
"What?"
"Grandmum Dromeda, silly" James said, elbowing Albus' side, "She's a Slytherin too, you know? And she's super cool and kind-"
"But you made fun of Slytherins!" Albus said incredulously, "why would said all that if you don't actually think they're bad?!"
"Now, just because I don't think they're bad doesn't mean I don't think they're annoying"
"So now you think I'm annoying?"
"Al, I always think you're annoying"
"Well, you're not not-annoying yourself" Albus huffed, but then he looked at his brother who's now grinning from ear to ear, he felt the dread inside him faded little by little, "Thanks, James" he mumbled, his pride still not allowing him to show James how grateful he was for his brother's presence.
Now it's James' turn to shrug, "You know Al, I'm quite good at doing hexes now, even that head of your house, Professor Slughorn invited me to his Slug Club because he's so impressed with my Horn-tounge hex-
"Didn't Mum-"
"Yes, yes, but that's not important. What I'm saying is, I can teach you all of it if you find yourself bored in the weekends"
Albus looked at his brother, James had his hands inside his pants's pocket, his legs kicking imaginary rocks on the school's floor, it almost hillarious how hard James tried to remain and look nonchalant, and Albus now finally grasp what his brother was trying to say.
I'm not gonna play hero and try to protect you, but I will help you to protect yourself. (And I also kinda want to hangout with you once in a while).
"That'd be great, James" Albus nodded with a smile, "Thanks"
"You know I'm still gonna make fun of you, right?", James reminded him, just to be annoying.
"I know"
"Not because you're a Slytherin though, but because you're my-"
"-brother"
James grinned.
"Bye, Al"
"Bye, James"
Albus beamed, what a dramatic day.
But at least his brother got his back.

You should do an fleurmione teacher-student au (Fleur the teacher, hermione student)
Love your stories! 🥰
Okay, this is super late (sorry anon!) and not written out properly nor even strictly teacher-student, but here is what I have for you in semi-bullet list format. I hope you like it.
Professor Granger and Professor Delacour both teach at the same university and are loved by their students
Professor Granger is the youngest teaching staff member in the mathematics department. Known to be strict but passionate, her way of teaching makes even the most quantitatively-adverse students enjoy her courses. Students who take her class know that they are going to suffer, and suffer hard, but they’re going to enjoy it. She’s infamous for having a tabby cat named Vector as her TA. People say she’s on course to win either a Fields Medal or a Nobel prize in physics (or both!) for her contributions in random processes and topological phase transitions.
Professor Delacour is a visiting professor from France. She teaches comparative literature with a specialty in works created during the French Renaissance. This is only her second year teaching here and despite that, she’s already earned herself quite a reputation amongst the students. Her classes are often held early in the morning and yet enrollment is highly competitive, with the waitlist being pages and pages long. Able to speak five different languages including English, French, Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese, there is no questioning her merit as an outstanding teacher. There’s also no denying her impeccable style (or that half the student body has a notable crush on her.)
There is no real reason for these two professors to interact, ever.
And as a note, the university is relatively small, meaning the rumor hill is intense. News of Lockhart’s tenure termination was known amongst the students well before the official decision ever reached the official review board. (Good riddance. He was a terrible professor.)
So when Professor Granger shows up in a faded MIT sweater and khakis Monday morning in the back of Professor Delacour’s Poetry in Resistance class, people notice.
And they talk.
Since when has Professor Granger – Professor “the entire world can be explained by data and numbers” – shown any interest in poetry? But when Professor Delacour struts in wearing a long grey checkered blazer over a black turtleneck and high-waisted pants held up by a belt, they get it.

trying to do a little "fanfic rewind" during the holidays. do you have any good fleurmione fic recs you could share? or sailor moon? i didn't learn what fanfic was until well after sailor moon and feel like i missed out on a whole magical world. thanks so much!
Fleurmione recs are better served for folks other than me, my recs are dated af. Like Aucune Defense Pour Toi and like Pain & Press and Witnessed Here in Time and Blood. Anyone else want to add to this?

cacntommyboi
@auburnskies24 did an awesome fic rec a while back and I’m just gonna reinforce the recs of Witnessed Here in Time and Blood and add its sequel Ivory and Horn because @whistlesilver is a Fleurmione minded genuis. then D. Geheimnis’ famous Aucune Defense Pour Toi because also AMAZING Then hop over to check out @ressick, on ff.net, and OBVIOUSLY @anamatics‘ fic On Teenagers & Love if not for the fleurmione then for the writing, this fic made me completely shift my view on present tense writing
Actually, I have more Fleurmione on my AO3 than I do on ff.net. But mostly I need to chip in because who can forget last year’s holiday gift of @whistlesilver‘s Threnody? Short but oh-so-sweet. And oldie but goodie Paean to Eros? Or hope that @orbitalwings will someday find his Fleurmione muse again because I love Entwined and Entangled? Or enjoy @dreiser7 having written No Defense for You back in *mumblemumble*? Otherwise every longer fic I love has already been mentioned, tbh, and I can only second/third/fourth all the previous recs. Also I think if you check out auburn’s fleurmione tag much of the goodness on tumblr ends up there eventually, art and short fics and headcanons and random squeeing. She’s like our accidental librarian or something.
@cadenceoftherain did the Dusk of Summer series which is pretty long and is currently in the works of an alternate ending, you can check it out on AO3.
@rebels-folly did Suddenly, which is still in the works but already has several chapters, you can find it on FF.net
I just wanna, I just wanna know If you’re gonna, if you’re gonna stay

FLEURMIONE
- Who would be the big spoon?
Fleur, mostly, because she is taller. For the first year of their relationship, Hermione wouldn’t even let Fleur touch her because she would scratch and claw in her sleep–and on more than one occasion, Fleur has woken with a black eye. They never really talk about it, not for a very long time, but Fleur thinks it has something to do with the incident at Malfoy’s Manor and the Cruciatus Curse.
Slowly, Hermione learns to talk about it. She opens up to Fleur, lets her touch the slur that is permanently etched in her skin. After a while the nightmares don’t come as often, Hermione learns to focus on the sound of Fleur’s breathing instead of her nightmares.
Hermione, sometimes, is the big spoon. Fleur has her demons too. And sometimes, it’s nice to be held. Also, when Fleur spoons Hermione, she usually ends up suffocating in Hermione’s curly hair.
- Who would wake up first?
Fleur wakes at ungodly hours. Hermione can wake up early but the lack of sleep will catch up to her and then she’ll take a 10 hr nap later in the week.
- Do they have nicknames for each other?
Fleur calls Hermione every affectionate term in French. Hermione sometimes puns with Fleur’s name. These include: flour, flower, fluorine, floor and etc.
- What happened when they met each other’s parents?
Hermione’s parents have always been kind of distant and they regard Hermione’s choice in a significant other in the way they regard her magical heritage–stay as far away as possible, know as little as possible, but support her all the same. Fleur does her best to learn all the muggle customs and get along with them.
Fleur’s family adores Hermione, especially Fleur’s dad who has always felt like the odd ball out of a family full of beautiful women. When Hermione visits at their French estate, they’ll spend hours in the family library together doing god knows what.
- How do they apologise after an argument?
Fleur is very straight forward. If she knows she’s wrong, she’ll say it even it hurts her pride.
Hermione, and all they Gryffindor in her, has a harder time apologizing. She never really lets an argument go, but she’ll apologize by buying Fleur books, something important, cooking breakfast. Eventually, she’ll verbally apologize.
Once, they had an argument over the color of their drapery and 3 weeks later, Hermione wakes Fleur up in the middle of the night just to tell her “I’m sorry.”
Fleur smiles sleepily, kisses her wife and tells her it’s alright.
- What would they be like as parents?
Oh Jesus Christ. They have two children: Amelie and, later, a little boy named Luke.
It was like the Triwizard Tournament all over again when Amelie’s Hogwarts Letter of Acceptance and Beauxbaton’s Invitation to The Academy arrived. The household was in war. They are very subtle too, making comments about how one school does something better. Later, when they realize that Amelie is taking this “Hogwarts or Beaxbaton” rivalry too seriously (she takes after Hermione), they sit her down and tell her they’ll love her no matter what school she chooses.
Amelie picks Hogwarts. Hermione gloats about it for the next two weeks in the bedroom, even mid-sex.
They’re very supportive, Hermione can be a little pushy and Fleur sometimes has to restrain her wife from becoming a tiger-mom. Both are fiercely proud of their little ones and very protective. Hermione helps with the homework but the kids, more often, come to Fleur for life advice–though not always.
- Who is the better cook?
Don’t ever let Hermione in the kitchen. She’ll burn water if that were possible. Eventually, Hermione gets better. Fleur still takes command of the kitchen.
- Who is more romantic?
Fleur is ridiculously cheesy romantic, straight from the French films, flowers for her girl, perfect gentle-woman. She dotes on Hermione.
Hermione is a lot more reserved but shows it through actions more than words; it comes out in the way she makes sure Fleur has her cloths washed and ironed, sometimes she’s out on the market and she’ll buy a token for Fleur “because it reminded me of you.”
- What sort of gifts do they get for each other?
Books. A ton of books. Sometimes they even forget who gave who a book and, once, for an anniversary, they gave each other the same book. Idiots.
Hermione has a thing for trinkets, little accessories like scarves and hats, she buys those off the street markets she visits and brings them home for Fleur.
- Who gets jealous easiest?
They both get jealous. Fleur gets possessive. Hermione gets grumpy and will find a way to take revenge on the unsuspecting suitor later, somehow.
- Who gets more excited for events e.g.. Birthdays, Christmas?
Fleur, by ways of being a romantic. Hermione has a calendar for all those days and she never forgets. It’s important to her wife so it’s important to her.
- Who is the most adventurous?
Fleur and Hermione both have an adventure streak. Before settling down to have children, they travel the world. Fleur does it for the adrenaline, Hermione does it because she is curious. They both have a love for finding something new and exploring the old crypts and temples.
- Who is the most protective?
I think….Hermione. Because she was so close to losing her parents and she was bullied, she’s much more sensitive to making sure their kids are safe. Fleur is protective too, but silently, whereas Hermione is confrontational, Fleur is the type to stalk a death eater down the alleyway and stick her wand in his mouth if he ever dared to go near her family.
- What would they have been like as childhood sweethearts?
I have a headcanon where Fleur and Hermione grow up together without knowing each other’s magical capabilities. They meet during the summer in France and are best friends for many many years before Fleur appears at Hogwarts cloaked in the colors of Beauxbaton.
- *BONUS: Song to sum them up?*
Taylor Swift – Safe and Sound
in all seriousness
i think fleur and hermione would spend several years in france
and they wouldn’t move to england until they have kids, and when they do, fleur teaches them perfect french and they’re little wee bilingual children
so whenever the kids want to tell fleur something “secretive” they tell it to her in french
and it isn’t until they’re 10 when hermione just breaks into laughter because they’re whispering french back and forth and she’s just like
“your mother and I spent four years in france, i can understand every word you’re saying”
cue mortified looks from chilren
“she’s the brightest witch of her age” fleur says, sipping her cup of tea
“yeah, sure muman”
and its not until the kids both go to Hogwarts do they hear all the stories about their moms because before they thought their moms were just witches and both were very modest about their past
so the first year they come back for winter break they’re like “mum you get attached by a trOLL?!?!”
and the second year “unCLE HARRY FOUGHT A SNAKE?? YOU WERE PETRIFIED??“
and by the forth year the teachers are like "oh and fleur delacour came from beauxbaton” and the kids are like “we know, we know, mums told us the story of how they met a million times”
until they come back from winter break and is like “Maman yOU FOUGHT A DRAGON???”
“She had this ability, just to sort of to show such empathy in her eyes. And it was a real treat to work with her.”
