Hey! I Know This Is Weird Coming From Me Because I’ve Been MIA For A Year And Like — Who Even Am

hey! i know this is weird coming from me because i’ve been MIA for a year and like — who even am i?? but i just want to address what i’m sure we’ve all been noticing on tumblr for a while now

and i’m sure this is happening in other fandoms too but i specifically only write for the harry potter fandom (literally just draco but that’s besides the point) so that’s what i want to talk about

anyways i’m sure by now we’ve all come to realize that hp fics on this app have hit an all time low

unless you’re writing a fic basically just about smut (and no shame to those that do that) your writing probably scores next to no notes and as a writer myself i know that you’re not supposed to do it for the notes but it’s honestly so demotivating to put so much effort into a piece of writing you’re super proud of and have it get no likes or reblogs because it’s not smut

tumblr isn’t what it used to be and so many people are leaving and as a singular blog it’s like well what the hell can i do about that?

but at the same time i know a lot of other people (and i’m hoping all of you) feel the exact same way as i do and i want to try and do something to bring old harry potter tumblr back

i’m not positive if everyone i tagged is even active anymore or still writes for harry potter… for those of you that have left the app or the fandom and do not wish to be included that is perfectly fine and i wish you well!! i also realize a few of the people i tagged are planning on leaving soon as well and if that’s still your choice afterwards that’s obviously okay too

for everyone else, i’m not even sure what we can do or where to start

i don’t want to tell writers “oh, from now on you can only write and post about angst” or “if a fic contains smut make sure you don’t interact with it” like that is absolutely not the message i’m trying to get across

but what i’m saying is maybe we can try and host an event where for a brief period writers of the harry potter fandom from when tumblr was at its peak (and of course newer and older ones as well) can come back all together and write to our hearts content with x reader angst and fluff to gain attention and traction for our favourite characters and try and make this fandom what it used to be

and obviously that may not be ideal because we all have our own lives and most of us are in school and have jobs so like when can we even do this?? but i for one thought christmas break was a good idea and saying that i recognize not everyone celebrates christmas but from what i know most schools still have a holiday break??

anyways it’s literally just a brain storm at the moment and this might flop and i’ll be embarrassed for a bit but if you read this far thank you for hearing me out

if anyone agrees and maybe wants to do something (it doesn’t have to be what i proposed at all) or has a better idea about how to do this please comment/like/reblog, send an ask, tag your moots, please get people interested and informed because i know i missed a million tags and i’m sorry for anyone i forgot

I would absolutely love to see a modern AU where Luffy is a firefighter and Law is a doctor. They meet when Luffy is sent to the ER for something stupid he did while on the job and he is constantly coming in with other odd injuries (burnt his eyebrows off, blistered his hand because he grabbed a hot pipe).

Modern AU Dr Trafalgar Law is one of my favourites! <3 

Love, Love, Love this!!

—————————-It was eleven pm on a Friday evening, twelve hours into his shift, not for the first time, Law sighed.

He looked down at the clipboard in his hands. Trafalgar Law, a doctor - an incredible one at that, specializing in cardiology had been assigned to the ER, the worst department of them all. The noise, the people, the sights and especially the smells made him want to curl up into a ball and stay there for the rest of his life.

Nurses rushed passed him as he stood still, still staring at a blurry jumble of words in front of him, his eyes were not focusing, he couldn’t remember the last time he had gotten some sleep, he should really try and get some soon.

He rubbed his tired eyes in an attempt to refocus them and the words finally started to make a little more sense to him again, that’s when he noticed a familiar name at the top of the patient information paper.

A smile finally spread across his lips for the first time that day, it was a regular.

Law suddenly had a burst of energy, he stood a little taller, stretching his aching back a little before making his way towards the ward his next patient was waiting in.

“You again?” Law spoke, his voice echoing around the room and into Luffy’s ears, he was sitting on the edge of the hospital bed as Law walked in,

“Ohhh heyyy!” Luffy stood up but the freckled male stood next to him instantly pushed him back onto the bed again. This was Monkey D. Luffy’s fifth, or was it sixth? Visit to the ER this month, both Luffy and his freckled faced brother Ace, were firefighters.

Luffy was either the most unlucky firefighter or the biggest idiot Law had ever met.

Law suppressed a smirk, trying to stay professional, he pretended to look over Luffy’s notes scribbled in Shachi’s messy handwriting. “So, what happened to you today?” Law asked, putting the clipboard down and walking over to Luffy, he could feel the tension coming from Ace but chose to ignore it. Luffy hadn’t stopped smiling at Law since he walked through the door and Law wasn’t sure how much he could take of his blinding smile before he cracked.

“Burnt both of my hands, no big deal. I’m sure they will be fine in the morning,” Luffy shrugged and Ace rolled his eyes, Luffy held his hands out for Law to see and instantly Law knew they definitely would not be better in the morning. His palms were red and inflamed, both of them had fresh burn blisters starting to form on the skin too, it looked painful.

“How have you not asked for any painkillers yet?” Law asked before putting on some gloves and gently taking one of Luffy’s hands, despite the ugly burns on younger man’s hands, Law felt a flutter in his heart that completely took him by surprise.

Law somehow managed to explain a treatment plan and what was going to happen and how Luffy wasn’t going to be able to work for a few weeks while at the same time his heart was thumping hard against his chest, was Luffy feeling the same? Did he feel a flutter in his heart too or was that just him? Luffy was just a patient, he had never felt this way towards ANYONE before, never mind a patient.

A few hours later and Luffy had both of his hands wrapped in gauze bandages, a prescription for strong painkillers had been stuffed into his back pocket and his legs swinging at the edge of the hospital bed. The room was silent as Law finished up writing Luffy’s medical notes, Ace had gone outside to make a few phone calls to family to let them know Luffy was okay. 

“Did you feel that too?” He asked suddenly making Law stop writing and look up at Luffy, for the first time Law looked straight into Luffy’s eyes, so full of life and wonder, he had beautiful eyes, the image of them looking back at him will be stored in his memory for the rest of his life. “Like a butterfly got stuck in your stomach or somethin?”

“What are you talking about?” Law asked, his heart was thumping in his chest again.

“When you touched my hands,” Luffy spoke, looking down at his bandaged hands and sighing, he could have swore he felt some sort of connection with the doctor, a connection he had never felt until now, Law had noticed Luffy’s legs had stopped swinging. “M-maybe it was just me then,”

what people think writing is: worldbuilding, churning out entire chapters in one sitting, metaphors, character building, finishing novels, flawless plotlines

what writing actually is: random 1 am thoughts, zoning out into fictional worlds, associating songs with characters, writer’s block for six weeks at a time, coming up with plot twists at the most inconvenient times
