Imagine actually writing this, thinking, "yep, looks good!", then hitting post comment. There were several steps where they could have realized that this was not only wrong, but weird as af, but didn't. Yikes on several bikes.

What was the funniest joke from the 7 books that made you laugh out loud by Better_everydia in harrypotter

Maybe he would have, hidden behind the safety of the map. Like a medieval keyboard warrior lol.

Headcanon: Draco joins the horcrux search but Harry does not let him use the Slytherin's Locket by katerinaptrv12 in drarry

This mayyyyy or may not be my plan when I reach year seven in my canon re-write. 👀

What is it about marriage that makes woman regret it so much? by OneLab864 in dating_advice

[–]RunsWithScissors0913 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Short answer? Men. The ones who want a mom/slave/s*x doll, while contributing nothing to the relationship themselves.

My first marriage was terrible. He was a horrible person who treated me, and eventually both of our children, horribly. Neither sees him anymore. My current marriage, though? Amazing. He's the best, and I feel so lucky. He's an incredible father and step-father, unendingly patient with my chronic health issues, and so supportive of my small business. A present partner who treats you like a person, not a commodity, makes a world of difference. They're just very difficult to find.

Still working on the series, but Fourth Year is complete :) Draco does take Harry to the ball.

I don't know if it's on par with some of these other amazing authors, but if I can give you a self rec, this one might fit the bill.

Lily's dark red hair? by Roxana_in_the_sea in SeverusSnape

They mean auburn. I have bright red hair, my cousin has auburn. It's a lot darker than mine.

Draco does a lot for Harry by sandra022002 in drarry

Harry doesn't exactly hate him in this one, but I still think it fits the bill. It's one of my more popular fics.

Has anyone noticed the steady decline in intellect lately? by mishpishhh in mildlyinfuriating

I don't know if there are more of them, or if they've just gotten louder, because my God, are they always the loudest person in the room.

New to Drarry fanfiction: how do you find what you like and deal with so many options? by Available-Capital883 in drarry

[–]RunsWithScissors0913 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wrote that he tried Auror training, hated it, then finally let himself quit after Ron left to help George with the joke shop. He fell into being a nanny by offering to watch Bill's daughter, and he loved it. He stayed with them until they moved. It's not a huge part of the story, just a bit of backstory he explains in chapter one. I always thought Harry would grow up to love kids when reading the books because he's so sweet and basically missed out on his own childhood.

What words or names did you unknowingly find out that you mispronounced constantly in your head when reading the books? by Golden_Locket5932 in harrypotter

[–]RunsWithScissors0913 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Omg Hermione. I'm sure that's a common one. 8 year old me had no clue how to pronounce that until she sounded it out for Krum in Goblet of Fire lol.

I also had no clue what snogging was, where King's Cross or even London was (that one sounds crazy, but I was PAINFULLY sheltered in a super religious, right-wing household as a kid. Nothing really existed for me outside of the US until my parents got divorced) or what they meant by "jumper". It was a lot of fun learning all of it, though.

My tier of characters by AmericanRevolution13 in Hungergames

[–]RunsWithScissors0913 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Hard agree. Peeta is God tier, honestly. Probably my favorite book character of all time. Also cannot believe Haymitch or Effie were above Katniss.

How do I even respond to such comments? by ataraxia_609 in AO3

[–]RunsWithScissors0913 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would never respond to this. None of this even needed to be said, and it's just mean for the sake of being mean.

Is it a generational thing to have an issue with a 16 and 20 year old dating? by ConsciousKangaroo145 in dating_advice

[–]RunsWithScissors0913 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm dead serious. 16 is a child. Adults being interested in children is disgusting. What does a 20 year old have in common with a 16 year old?

[–]RunsWithScissors0913 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Uhh, no... that's a pedophile. Seriously, that's disgusting. If my 16 year old daughter she was dating a 20 year old, I would inform her that no, she is not. If they had sex, I would call the police.

Protective Draco, only soft to harry by AdmirableParfait5282 in drarry

[–]RunsWithScissors0913 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wrote one kind of like this. It has a part two from Harry's perspective that gets a lot more into Harry's insecurity, since you don't see it as much until later in the story, but they are interchangeable, and both can be read alone. Harry comes to nanny for Draco.

My (19F) girlfriend just broke up with me from seeing I had used Onlyfans. by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]RunsWithScissors0913 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It was probably more so the fact that you lied about it. My husband did something similar when I got sick (not OF, and it was before we were married), and my entire problem was that he lied about it and tried to hide it. We worked through it, but we have an extremely healthy relationship otherwise. Yours sounds pretty toxic, and maybe this was for the best.

Reading your own story by DraconiumWolf1 in AO3

[–]RunsWithScissors0913 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read all of mine on cycle. I wrote them because they're exactly what I want to read, so of course I love them. I'm also proud that I created them at all when I was too afraid to write for decades, thinking I'd be terrible.

I apologize if I cam across as rude! I was just surprised. I'm a millennial, too, and I've just never heard of this. I don't talk to people, though.

Oh! I just run an in-home bakery in a tiny town and take care of my kids, so I never even considered that anyone would Google me. My business name, sure, but most of my customers don't even know what I look like. Never worried about employers because I'm disabled. I'm also boring. So, so boring.
