‘She wasn’t a good mother’ great are we evaluating this character trait as one of her many facets or are we just damning her for not being the most maternal womanliest woman who ever womaned
Thinking about how Ted probably told Andy about the cinema and she absolutely begged him to take her to one for weeks until he finally did.
He takes her to the nearest muggle city. Their theater is by no means impressive, if anything it’s quite quaint. He purchases tickets to a movie he thinks will do and buys them a box of popcorn to share. The entire time Andy is buzzing with excitement. She asks every question she can think of beginning with how many movies have you seen? and ending somewhere around why are muggle candy boxes so simplistic?
They finally take their seats. Not too high up, not too far down, perfectly in the middle of the rows. As the opening credits roll he watches the excitement on Andy’s face turn to wonder. She leans in during tense moments, she laughs at all the jokes, she claps when the protagonist makes a narrow escape, and she gasps when the plot twist is revealed. He couldn’t tell you any of the details happening on screen but it didn’t matter. It didn’t compare to the girl next to him.
it makes me sad the way cis women are so terrified of and disgusted by their own body hair. and i'm not talking "i have to shave for sensory reasons" i mean i keep seeing videos of women using hair identifier spray on their faces and hands so they can shave the tiniest barely-there bits of peach fuzz that came free with their bodies. hair that serves a purpose and that purpose is cleanliness and protection. i mean when i was in elementary school girls who had barely hit puberty were talking about shaving their arms. i mean full-grown adult women who will have a breakdown if they see two days of stubble on their legs/crotch/ jaw/pits because god forbid you don't look like a perfect plastic barbie doll. god forbid your body that keeps you alive comes with hair that may not be soft and glossy and photogenic. some women are so afraid of having any hair apart from their head and eyebrows that they've uno reversed themselves into six different kinds of gender dysphoria that they can't recognize as such because they're convinced that this unnatural state of highly-groomed capital-informed beauty is how women have always been. you're so scared of looking "gross" or "ugly" or "mannish" that you can't even look at your body in the mirror and recognize what it is. sister you are an ape. why are you so determined to deny your nature.
I think the relationship with Narcissa and her father was very distant. She was always a mummy’s girl, she looked like her mother, acted like her, was her mother’s favourite.
I think Cygnus had wanted a son, but I think in time he felt guilty about it. I think he looked at Narcissa and wanted to say so many things but couldn’t. I like to think that as they grew older, as Andromeda left and Bella became what she became, Narcissa and Cygnus got closer.
Even with a family like theirs I like to imagine soft little moments, like Narcissa playing with little Draco, and Cygnus watching them, maybe regretting that he didn’t build similar memories with her.
Everyone must have thought that Narcissa is so much like her mother, but deep down she was her father’s girl, too. The youngest siblings, maybe a bit more quiet and calculative than their siblings, in a way they were so much alike.
james' birthday today, the father of all bisexuals in the world. happy birthday my dearest.
why are men so self conscious about their height when there are so many more important flaws to be self conscious about like the lack of emotional intelligence
Tbh I don’t know how to start this account so I’m going to toss out a wide net and hope I catch some fellow Black sister enjoyers. I want to put these thoughts somewhere they can be enjoyed rather than just into my bestie’s DMs all the time.
Black Sisters Headcannons that no one asked for
- I don’t think we talk enough about the jewelry box drama on here. I think that’s some fabulous, untapped potential. I would love for us to build upon that lore.
- As someone that has sisters, idk where y’all got the idea that they grew up in a girlhood utopia. They 100% regularly fought and have gotten into physical altercations about stealing one another’s belongings. That’s not to say they didn’t love each other though. They did. It’s the principle of “I can call my sibling that but you, random stranger, cannot.”
- I subscribe to the “Narcissa and Lucius took the unbreakable vow” narrative written in the VERY early chapters of ATYD. I really do think they love/loved each other. I think that in the beginning they had this dream of being parents together and having a family that truly loved each other. Unfortunately in order to have that you have to unpack your own family trauma and I think both of them would rather die than do that. So they did their best with what they had. And it’s reflected so interestingly in Draco but pls don’t make me talk about him rn.
- I don’t think about Andy and Ted (or whoever else you ship her with 👀) as much as I should. Please drop me your favorite headcannons abt her some they can become my favorites!
- I could probably write a graduate level thesis on Bella however for now I will just say that when I was first learning the lore of the family I did not realize she was canonically the oldest. For the longest time I saw her as the middle child. Furthermore, I also think her mental health issues have been life long and were only exacerbated by her time in Azkaban (duh). By combining those two ideas I created this narrative where she was sort of given to Andy to deal with anytime she was having a breakdown acting out. Even though that is a rough foundation for a sibling relationship it’s what they had and they grew to understand each other. To the point when Andy went away to school Bella kinda crashed out for a few months because her major support system was gone.
Okay that’s all for now!! Come chat with me! Or don’t. Either way I hope you have a wonderful day. ✨
