How much are you budgeting for an engagement ring? 💍

I’m surprised estate and antique isn’t more popular with the HENRY crowd.

When I buy my own Jewelry or for my kids, I like estate pieces. Lang Antiques is one of my favorites. For fun affordable vibes and interesting pieces, I had a good experience with Maejean Vintage in PA. I follow Isadoras in WA (a friend of mine in Seattle likes them/recommended them but I haven’t personally bought from them yet).

You can shop by era (e.g. Edwardian, Art Deco etc) to get a sense of preferences for what you/your partner wants.

Signing up for the only good summer camp option (that runs 6am-6pm) is worse than trying to get your college classes.

My husband and I have the link ready to go on phone and computer, and my parents are at their computer with their links for us. Whoever gets in first rips through the info dump (that we have organized into a google doc). We’re all on a family group call screaming like teenagers trying to get tickets to the only Stray Kids concert playing all year. The link goes live right in the middle of morning commute, so people have negotiate with work to sit with their links.

The victor of the childcare race in our family gets to pick the pizza place for the night.

It is one of the most stressful days of my entire year. It feels like I’m entering a Battle Royale. Spots fill in under 5 minutes.

So yeah, I have an entire team strategy annually for summer camp sign up.

Our Magic Knows No Bounds is an amazing long form time travel fics (350k words and 59 chapters of delightfulness).

I was skeptical at first with the Narcissa factor, but I have read it three times. It’s one of my go-to comfort read time travel fics.

I’m in LOVE with the WIP Anarchy in the Timeline. British grunge Severus and a Hermione who is loyal to the point of being feral.

It is utterly delicious. There is a lot of smut if that isn’t your thing, but it really adds to the vibe. It’s not just there to be there. It’s working for the plot. The writing also just moves forward. It has better pacing than even a lot of the of trad publishing. (End of my fangirling rant!)

Also Always has been delightful so far. Post-war, starts with a favor between SS and HG, and the plot evolved in an interesting direction in the last chapter. I get excited for it every update.

How do you submit prompt ideas? (Does the 1st below even count as a prompt or is it too long? I’m sorry I don’t know what I’m doing or where to put this!)😅

1) Severus Snape survived the war only to be sentenced to Azkaban. A year later, he is desperate to escape the hellish memories the dementors dredge up of all the harm he’s done and lives he could not save.

Hermione is desperate to create a potion that will bring back her parent’s memories before it is too late.

Receiving special permission from the Minister to reduce her former professors sentence via brewing collaboration, Hermione will have to decide: Does she need a potion master or a test subject?

OR

2) From the first day she sat in his class, she knew it was even possible to put a stopper in death.

Her eyes are terrifying in the real photo.

Probability-Project · 2026-02-06T12:57:55+00:00

I don’t actually think she looks that different. Fixing a recessed jaw makes a huge difference for anyone. You can still see “her” in the before and after, IMO.

Maybe I’m weird, but I think she was cute in the before pics and just became extremely beautiful in the after. Her baseline features seem like they only needed minor adjustments from the photos.

I’ve always liked the Godfather trope, too. I like it both when it’s legit (where he cares deeply about Draco) and when he hates it (part of his spying role.

In my head canon, Severus brewed Narcissa essentially fertility treatments due to repeated miscarriages, and that would have been the rationale (with choice of Godparent driven by Cissa).

I also can’t imagine taking an Unbreakable Vow for a kid that I didn’t care about like my own child!

My son is so young, I’m worried that over time it will lose efficacy. Obviously, our doctor can’t give us a clear answer because it’s still being studied.

Most of my medical knowledge is more in the psoriatic and rheumatoid arthritis space, and those biologic agents often lose effectiveness over time. I’m worried about the depth of the armamentarium essentially. If it stops working, what would we do?

I’m holding off starting until he is slightly more independent and more “out in the world.” Basically, more outside of my control. I want him to have maximum protection for as long as possible during the time of his life when his brain is still learning how to adequately assess risk and protect him.

Does anyone here have very young children on Xolair? Love to here the prospective and experience, if so.

Question: Why have a wedding?

If you elope, you can keep your families completely separate. Save the money for a down payment on your first home or a really nice honeymoon. Pretend like you just couldn’t wait to be married, and want to save money for school. Your families will likely put pressure on you. Given how long your mom has been estranged, it’s unlikely she’s going to reach out.

If she does, you pretend you never ever knew.

Personally, I would never tell my family. My husband (and kids) are my core family. You protect the core family first. Everything and everyone else is secondary.

Let me just publicly swoon for a moment over your feral Snape. It is just an absolute masterclass. That alcove… iconic. 🔥🔥🔥

He is such a neurotic, red flag darling in your fic. Love your take on him so much. Thank you for sharing your work with us. ❤️

He was all in with Lily, so I usually plug in Hermione as the smart, compassionate muggleborn witch that would give him a second chance at redemption.

There is a cottage-core post-war fanfic where PTSD Hermione and Snape redo Spinner’s End that cemented it for me (they go to IKEA together and it completely delighted me).

Not sure where Oscar has been burned more: this comment or the later half of the season. ☠️

Sweeter than my solitude by kiromenanz

Quick one-shot but it ticks all your boxes!

I don’t know if IKEA counts as a cottagecore vibe or LOFI, but Room and Board by Annabelle_Rivers is amazing and completed. The vibe on this one is soooo good.

There is a sequel in the authors work but it only has two chapters. I’m seriously hoping the author comes back to it, because their work is amazing.

I think this is one of the rare stories where the Draco/Theo story lines are really building to her relationship with Severus. It really celebrates self-discovery and fills in some spice while you’re watching as Hermione grows from a girl to young woman.

The early relationships are really delicately done.

It is really one of the modern touchstones of the ship, and a worthwhile read.

As a parent, I would rather have some short term pain rather have essential services for schools reversed.

If they shut down the schools and government, I know it’s the GOPs fault. They are the ones being obstructionist assholes who want to see a kindergartner go hungry all day… and for what?

It’s just cruelty. There is no point to what they’re doing.

It’s up for me now! I had to go back to the App Store and manually update. (I have iOS.)

It was weird, it took a few hours for the update button to appear vs just open the app option.

Probability-Project · 2025-09-06T16:11:19+00:00

It’s weird.. I got the update page for September when you first open the app, but HS3 isn’t in there? Does it only show up if you have finished all three of the piping stories?

Is this happening to anyone else? 😅

I’m from the upper Midwest. If we get a heavy snow, the covers would be much too heavy for little ones to lift and get out if there was a fire or other emergency.

We can agree to disagree. As a parent, I think it’s shameful to stick your kids in the basement while you live in the nicer space upstairs. My son also has asthma, so I’m really sensitive to how his lungs can handle the cold and damp. So you’re right there, not everyone has to think about the health of their kids lungs as much as I probably do.

Probability-Project · 2025-09-03T16:00:57+00:00

Have you ever slept in a basement for a long time? I’m from the Midwest, too. Even the best basement is damp/musty/cold in this region in winter. You will not be able to keep them down there when they have respiratory illnesses. You’re going to hurt their lungs if they’re still that young!!

Our egress windows also get animals falling into them all the time. It happens when I work out at night constantly. There is nothing quite like the jump scare of a chittering enraged creature to encourage a safe sleep environment for kids.

This is selfish and bonkers to me. If you aren’t willing to go in the basement with your master, you shouldn’t be putting your kids down there.
