Dear Friends,

Dear Friends,

I write to you with tears in my eyes and a heavy heart. After 188 days of displacement, constant fear, and struggling to survive, we managed to escape with our lives and reach Egypt. But the pain didn’t stop there. Just yesterday, we lost my children's grandfather 💔, not due to direct war, but because of malnutrition and the lack of basic life necessities. We couldn’t save him, just as we couldn’t save our home or our dreams.

The rest of my family is still trapped in the war, suffering the same harsh conditions that led to the passing of my children's grandfather. We are here trying to build a new life, but we have lost everything. We lost our home, and my children were deprived of their schools and universities. Even my eldest son, who worked so hard to build his future, lost his job and saw his dreams shattered.😔

We are now in desperate need of your help. We seek to secure a safe home that will provide us and our children with basic needs. Life in Egypt is extremely difficult, and prices are soaring beyond our reach. All we ask for is a chance to rebuild our lives and secure a better future for our children.🙏🏼

From the depths of my heart, I ask you to stand by us in these difficult times. Your support means hope and life to us.🙌🏼🇵🇸

I'm gonna use this as an opportunity for yapping about the Lestrange brothers because yes.

Lestrange Brothers

Rodolphus wants to be Rabastan's keeper, care for his twin brother, and have that bond commonly taught to pureblood twins in their society. But they will always be brothers and not twins. Rabastan embodies the dirtiness of their society (the bloodshed, the unequal power dynamics, the favoritism, etc.) and Rodolphus embodies the desires of the society (wealth, attention, praise, fame, etc.). They are different down to their bones from the moment they were born where that one hour separated their birthdays into one night and one day instead of just one night.

Even on the outside, they are fraternal twins and look alike only in a "brothers" sense instead of identical twins, which are the most common. Rabastan is covered in silver like a knight and Rodolphus is draped in gold like a wealthy king. Rabastan's clothes are mostly black and blend in while Rodolphus is covered in decorative beads and bright embroidery. When you see them, your attention is immediately facing Rodolphus.

I know from the way I describe it, that it feels like Rabastan is this outsider/black sheep, but I don't see it all. I've mentioned this before but Rabastan is very likable compared to Rodolphus, who is often serious and stoic, making him only respectable, but not particularly likable. Rabastan is very expressive (it is sort of stated in the books during his trial in 1981 lol. He doesn't have a lot of canon information so I had to work around what I could on the HP wiki and books. But this also means I see him as a very easily nervous person lol, esp if he's not in control of a situation. Poor guy has terrible anxiety) and a cool personality that a lot of pureblood witches and wizards rather like (rich college dude in 2000s movies- WHO SAID THAT).

Anyways, their interactions are actually pretty limited. Rodolphus is often busy with other things and Rabastan likes to chill by himself or with Regulus while creating new spells. When they do interact, Rabastan feels sort of uncomfortable because he feels like he's disappointing Rodolphus in one way or another while Rodolphus is sort of at a loss of what to say and kinds of leaves it as a comfortable silence. Rabastan loves his brother but can only really do so at a distance. Rodolphus loves his brother but can do so in silence because that's what he's used to from the Lestranges. Which Rabastan doesn't really work well with.

Deep down, they love each other, it's just really different for them. Rodolphus lets Rabastan have as much freedom as he wishes, defends his every action from critique, and puts his entire life and trust into Rabastan's hand while Rabastan willingly throws himself near death doors for Rodolphus, lets his brother pull from the doorstep, and watches where Rodolphus can't. There is a deep-rooted trust formed from early boyhood with scrapped knees and gently pulling splinters from under fingernails with hushed comforts. It never fully goes away and Rabastan dies with it in his heart while Rodolphus carries it for the rest of his life.

Something I never got about Strangers is how some people interpreted it to be entirely about cannibalism and Isaiah? On my first listen, when I didn't know the story behind it, I always thought it was about ethel's mother, Willoughby, and the town she grew up in over anything. She feels like a disappointment, like she made it out of town but never truly left. When she asks 'am I feeling you sick' I believe it is a broader sentiment. Does her situation make her mother feel sick? Does the way she turned out make Willoughby, where ever he is, feel sick? Does her story, the haunting nature of it, make the town sick? Are they disgusted by her? Does she keep them from sleeping? Of course cannibalism is a huge part of strangers, but there's also so much more to it that's hidden beneath the surface. Isaiah is not the only aspect of ethel's story. She is more than Isaiah.
