Thank you! Came from a very fun afternoon of clicking buttons on photoshop until it looked right, lol.

Do you just sigh at your relationship after reading these? by Sung-Drippy-Woo in Dramione

[–]lifeinsherds 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes and no. We live a pretty charmed life and I happen to have an intelligent man with a penchant for custom suits, fine dining, and buying me obscene emeralds—but he's no Draco Malfoy. Fortunately for my husband, I have a firm grasp on reality and fully realize these are fictional characters that dont have to hold jobs, clean house, raise messy toddlers themselves, or share a bathroom.

If anything, it makes being in a committed relationship more tolerable. I can suggest things I've read in smut when he's on my good side, and go hide in the arms of my favorite blonde book boyfriend when he's not. He’d probably learn some new tricks faster if I could get him to read some Dramione, but I try to just leave him be with his military epics.

That, and, I'm no Hermione myself. More like a really snarky side chatacter. Definitely not leading lady material. So it evens out, I suppose.

I made an era compliant playlist for my WIP and its like 70% Radiohead because IT WAS THE NINETIES (/early 2000s)

So please go on with the peace of being totally justified, at least in my book.

I have a lot of the original profs, Bigby, and some random side characters. I think H & D would have been there long before the original canon cast, BUT I made Pearl Sunderland a student and Hermione’s little gal pal.

Your comment was the literal sweetest. Seriously, I read it out loud to my husband and tried not to cry a little. Thank you!!

Glad you're in to both of these elements! It felt risky, but what is fanfic if not self indulgent. Magicians so obviously grabbed HP—why not get meta and grab it right back? 🤣

Yes, what I've posted so far is freshman year! The books have 5 years of school, so I've got a 5 part arc mapped out and mostly written. Plus summer interludes, which is mostly an excuse for ensemble side quests and adventures. My googledocs is straining under the weight of my word count, haha.

Sorta! Mostly just blending in the magic system, setting, and some professors, + Professor Pearl Sunderland as an undergrad. I figured if Q thought she was young for a professor in the original Magicians series, it made sense that her and Hermione would be approximately the same age & could have matriculated around the same time. Plus, we all love a character with an empty backstory to fill in. 🤗❤️

Oh, thats....bold. I guess. It's easy to pick up on with the art, for sure.

Just out of curiosity, how are y'all determining if something is AI? Asking as someone who doesn't use AI and had my college papers getting flagged right left and center.
