early 30s, she/her, lesbian, in hp fandom for the angst and trauma, @andromedafreed is my side account for my Tedromeda WIP, thistlecat on Ao3
Hello! I’m sketchyblondes (thistlecat on ao3.) I’ve been reading Harry Potter fanfiction for 15+ years and just started writing last year. I find myself drawn to writing messy, dark, political, and niche fics and whatever I feel like is missing in fandom, but my interests are very much all over the place. The Noble and Most Ancient House of Black has most of my focus.
I am completely and utterly normal about rivers, creeks, lakes, forests, ponds, hills, mountains, and other natural landscapes (lying)

I love the x-men so much because that’s just what leftist infighting is like! that’s literally all it is! xavier is a sellout and they all hate him but he’s the only one with any money. everyone complains about “they keep switching sides and dating each other it’s so fucking confusing” like my dudes have you never been a part of any socialist organisation, ever. then people will go “magneto is so strong how has he not killed a bunch of teenagers” HE DOESN’T WANT TO KILL THEM! this started in a goddam basement over coffee he does not want to hurt them he just wants them to shut up and listen and will fling cars to do so

it does more harm than good to prop up the myth of the ‘neurotypical’ who completes tasks cheerfully with no issues. this person is a capitalist fantasy. the more you define yourself in comparison to this myth the more you justify social structures staying the same with minor accommodations to the ‘exceptions’ and the continued pathologizing of discomfort under hostile conditions

Unwritten by @pcandaa, @fantalfart [Pansy/Ginny, M, 83.2k] WITH ART!

Play Me Like A Love Song by @writcraft, @impasse-trash, @owlpostart [Wilhelmina/Minerva, E, 67.7k] WITH ART!
Minerva McGonagall doesn’t believe in love at first sight, which is why her instant attraction to drag king Wilhelmina (“Will”) Grubbly-Plank is so unexpected. War tears apart the wizarding world and as one battle ends Minerva and Will must fight once more, this time for the lives of their friends on Little Compton Street. A love story spanning five decades defined by music, laughter and tears, in which love is not always easy, but it’s always worth fighting for.
the girl who lived (again) by @ink-splotch [trans!Harry/Ginny, G, 10.3k]
Molly tried her best. When Harry had told them, Arthur had asked excitedly, “is this a Muggle thing?” Hermione had hurried out a “no!” and a frantic history of gender diversity in the wizarding world. “It’s just that I’m a girl,” Harry had said…

This is a story about how Madam Rosmerta, of the Three Broomsticks fame, became the unofficial Queer Crisis Counselor for Hogwarts School of Witchcraft, Wizardry, and Wixenry. Or, 5 times she helped other baby gays + 1 time they helped her.
strawberry hair, porcelain skin by ??? [Luna/Ginny, M, 4.6k]
Ginny Weasley-Potter comes into her own after being with Harry Potter for twenty years. She’s afraid and she’s uncertain, but she knows one thing: she loves Luna Lovegood more than anything else. Ginny only hopes she will love her just as much.

Dass du glücklich bist (your happiness) by @eleonorebirk [Minerva/Poppy, T, 2.4k]
When a student comes out to Minerva, it reminds her of coming out to her parents and inspires her to change the present
They Bought A Sports Bar by @fw00shy [Cho/Ginny, T, 2.3k]
Ginny buys a sports bar (run-down biker pub, really) and ropes Cho into helping out. They’re just business partners, so why does everyone else think they’re more?
If It Isn’t Her by space_mermaid [Lavender/Millicent, E, 2.0k]
After breaking up with her on-again/off-again boyfriend for the umpteenth time, Lavender heads to a dyke bar. She runs into some familiar characters.

Hermione comes home early from work and Fleur has something to show her
An Innocent Question by @sansigma [Andromeda/Molly, G, 500]
“Excuse me, I just… I have to ask. How old are you?” The girl looks so painfully earnest, with large brown eyes and a rainbow flag messily painted on her cheek, that Andromeda has to laugh. A second later Molly joins in, her laughter warm as a Weasley jumper.

Summarize it and/or let your followers drag you for your type :)
