How to write kids, if you don't remember being one or haven't lived with any
1. Kids never feel as small as you see them. A three year old thinks a one year old is a baby and a six year old is grown up. A six year old thinks a three year old is a baby and a twelve year old is an adult. Age is about perspective. One year is a huge age difference to a little kid.
2. Little kids might not be conscious of their physical limitations, but they can still be frustrated by them. A seven year old might see an adult do something relatively simple, like draw a straight line or perfectly crack an egg, and try to do the same thing, only to be frustrated when it doesn't work.
Imagine suddenly having an injury that makes a skill you use every day become difficult- you feel you should be able to do the thing, and you understand the thing should be easy for you, but it isn't. It can be immensely frustrating to have a brain that grasps a concept that language or fine motor skills haven't caught up to.
3. You know when you forget a word, and have to make something up on the fly to describe the word? That's pretty much exactly what learning your first language is like.
You know what you intend, but you don't have a way to express it, and it can move you to tears with frustration when everyone around you is suggesting the wrong thing, or seems completely certain they understand what you mean, and they don't.
You don't have a word for "Later"? You might try saying "next time", or, "after", or, "before tomorrow".
This might result in saying, "Are we going to the park next time?", "Are we going to the park before tomorrow?", or, "Are we going to the park after?", all of which can result in different answers.
4. Kids feel like adults are a different species. They don't get why we do certain things, and they don't understand why we don't want to run around with them all the time.
If sitting still is boring, coffee tastes bitter, and long conversations only happen with weird-smelling strangers who talk to them like they're stupid, then they truly will not understand why anyone would *want* to be left to have coffee with a friend without welcome distractions to make it bearable.
Aren't you bored? You aren't doing anything. How could you possibly be stimulated without any food or toys or music or anything? Why don't you just leave? Do you *have* to be there, the way you had to go to work? Adults are weird.
5. Children have complex social relationships that are just as varied as yours.
A room full of third graders might look like indiscriminate chaos to an adult, but pick a well connected kid, and they'll tell you that Megan is the fashion icon who can do hair really well, Thomas is the athlete, Gray gets mean when he has to share so nobody wants to play with him, Paisley can't read and the boys make fun of her for it so don't make her work in a group with Anthony, Dillon put a bug in their food once so they'll never trust him again, and Matthew's parents let him watch family guy so he says bad words and makes grown-up jokes that make other kids uncomfortable.
You don't see this stuff because you aren't inside the society. They are, and they do.
6. Time. Moves. So. Slow. Five minutes really does feel like half an hour. Sit still for five minutes? That's like you sitting in a waiting room at the DMV for an hour. Wouldn't you get annoyed and impatient? They haven't learned to hide their irritation yet. That's really the only difference.
7. "Reading in your head" requires understanding that you have a Voice, which people can hear, and Thoughts, which are audible only to yourself. This can be a difficult concept to grasp. If a kid is reading out loud, and you tell them to read quietly, there's a good chance they're going to whisper or mouth the words instead of going totally silent the way you might. Splitting the self into multiples like "Internal monologue VS public perception" or "What I look like VS how I think I look" is alien and bizarre. If a kid thinks they look like a Dragon and you laugh at them? Ouch. They might be mad for a while.
8. Repetitive chores make no sense when your awareness of time doesn't extend beyond a week or so. Why should I wash my blankets? They don't look dirty and I don't smell anything bad. Blankets don't get dirty unless you put dirt on them. If you put a blanket in a washer, you can't use that blanket AT ALL the ENTIRE TIME it's being cleaned. That might be an hour, but it will *feel* like a week. And you have to do that every two weeks?? That's overkill. Why even bother?
9. Kids have opinions about adults. They will have a sense about whether an adult is "real-kind" or "fake-kind". An adult who listens respectfully to what they have to say, asks thoughtful questions, and takes their concerns seriously? That's a good adult. An adult that oversimplifies their struggles, ignores their complex social rules, and gives bullshit advice like "just walk away from bullies" and "turn your chores into a fun game"? That's not a trustworthy adult. That's an Adult™. An Adult™ doesn't consider them to be a real human being with thoughts and emotions. An Adult™ sees them as an inferior, amusing pet. And they will actively sabotage An Adult™ like that.
10. Emotions are physical at a young age. Joy might make their body buzz until they can't help but wiggle or jump around. Sadness might be a huge physical pain in their throat and heart. Everything they experience is still relatively new to them, so there is very little frame of reference to decide if this is a "big hurt that will last forever and ever and never go away", or a "small hurt, that can be fixed easily and won't matter in five minutes". If someone lies to them about getting a cookie, that very well might be all the betrayal of your best friend sleeping with your husband.
Fortunately, a child probably won't be able to burn all your clothes in the yard without your notice.

Oliver: WHY?!
Percy: I have a fever, and mom says it's better takes some days off, based on the pandemic now.

Random texting - Part 2
@pixaldateblue
This is for you, thanks for your idea and hope you like it hahahahah
"I'll always be by your side, no matter how far we apart. If you ever feel lonely and hopeless, just close your eyes and embrace the nature. Maybe it's a gust of wind or a ray of sun light, but you'll know it's me, because I've promised I'll always be by your side."
Percy couldn't remember where the hell did he read this line before. A book that he read? Or a movie he saw? He can't recall his memories, but weirdly he recognised the butterflies in his stomach whenever this line pops up in his mind.
He lies on the bed, starring the ceiling for a while then he finally remember open his phone. 5 video calls, 17 missed call, 20 unread messages, all just happened during his nap time and all are from Oliver.
Percy sits up in his bed, start reading the messages from Oliver.
Don't know why, Percy feels an urge to cry. He feels something warm in his heart, he doesn't know actually words can have temperature, even though he had read piles of books in his entire life.
He thinks he better reply Oliver back before he floo to his apartment and blow this place up.
Percy throw his phone on his pillow and get out from the bed. He looks like shit in the mirror. He lied, he surely took a nap, but it was yesterday. He had slept for like a day, because it's his holidays so no one will noticed.
Except Oliver.
This man he had known like almost 20 years, never missed out a chance of spotting him. It seems like he always can found him, even though in a big crowd of people, Oliver can always spot him and hold him tight.
He's just like his lifebuoy, the reason that keeps him alive.
Percy clean himself up, then he moves to the living room and sit on the sofa. He looks at the door, waiting for the knock on the door.
It's a very annoying sound 'cause Oliver always banging on the door, but that's what Percy always like to listen.
It's feel like Oliver's heartbeat, and it keeps him feel alive.

Oliver: [wakes up to Percy and Marcus sniffling] Why are you guys crying?

How to write Panic and Anxiety Attacks
TW: Mention of mental illness, anxiety and panic attacks.
I have had several anxiety and panic attacks. I know how terrible they are. Hopefully, this may be helpful
Difference
(Credit to the owner of the image)
One of the major differences between anxiety and panic attacks is that anxiety attacks are caused due to the disease called anxiety while panic attacks are sudden and may happen to a person who has never ever had anxiety.
Keywords: -Panic attacks: Sudden -Anxiety attacks: Prolonged and Gradual (easier to control)
Symptoms/Feeling
->Normal/Mild
Pain in chest
Breathing difficulty
Shaky Limbs
Mild Dizziness
Slight nausea
Need to go to the toilet
Hot flushes
->Severe
Severe nausea
Vomiting
Acidity
Fainting
Dark spots in vision
Extreme trembling
Suicidal Ideation
Dialogues you can use (mostly for panic)
"I can't breathe!"
"This is not normal! NOT NORMAL"
"I AM GOING TO DIE"
"I don't know what's happening!"
"My chest hurts"
"I feel like I am going to puke."
"I don't want to die."
"YOU ARE TELLING ME TO BREATHE? WOW! I WOULD HAVE DONE THAT IF I WERE ABLE TO "
"Help me."
Response/Comfort
"You are doing amazing!"
"I am so proud of you!"
"Breathe for me, please"
"You are okay, you are safe"
"You can get through this."
"Concentrate on your breathing "
"I want you to look at me and forget everything else"
"Focus on my voice."
Remember that oftentimes a person having a panic attack does not like to be touched, so it's best to ask for consent first
"Can I hold your hand?"
"Is it okay if I envelop my arms around you?"
"Are you comfortable? "
"I am going to put my hand around your ears, is that okay?"
Control
The most common grounding technique for anxiety/panic attacks is the 54321 method. In this, you identify…
5 things you can see
4 things you can feel
3 things you can hear
2 things you can smell
1 thing you can taste
Hope this was helpful
(well I only know their name but not so familiar with their personality, so I might get wrong with their actions and talks.)
*Molly, Hugo, James, Albus and Victoria casually playing in the garden.*
Molly: My dada is the best keeper in the world, you know? He play for the PUDDLEMERE!
Hugo: So what? MY dad is better than yours.
Molly: Uncle Ron roots for the Chudley Canons, and dada says they are worst.
Hugo: NO, Puddlemere is the WORST.
Molly: Chudley IS THE WORST!
James: Harpies is-
Molly&Hugo: SHUT UP!
Percy: Guys, what's wrong? *heard the fight and check out the kids in the backyard*
Molly: Papa!
Hugo: Uncle Percy! You think who's the best team? Chudley or Puddlemere??
James: Harpies is the best...*whisper to himself*
Percy: Well, according to the statistics...(a long essay of his opinion from his smart brain)...I'll like to say, Puddlemere is still better than Chudley. I say that is not because my husband is the keeper of Puddlemere, it's base on the facts.
Molly: SEE? MY papa is the SMARTEST IN THE WORLD, you motherfuck-
James, Hugo, Vivtoire, Albus: *gasped*
Percy: MOLLY?! WHERE THE HELL DID YOU LEARN IT?!
Oliver: *bust into the garden* Percy! I can't believe Marcus that shit beat me with the bludger and dare to say he didn't mean it?! I swear that MOTHERFUCKER- What? why are you looking at me like that?
Albus to Victoire: Better run before Uncle Percy giving us a two hour lecture again. *hide in a bushes*
James and Hugo to Molly: Just pray for yourself ok? *leave her and run*
Percy: OH YOU WANNA SWEAR? SWEAR WHAT? I'M THE ONE TO SWEAR THAT IF YOU SAY THE M WORD IN FRONT OF THE KIDS AGAIN, I'M GONNA PUT SILENCIO ON YOU.
Sweater Weather
The idea pops out when I'm having allergic yesterday. I really air conditioner because they make my nose super dry and I'll sneeze a lot until I thought my nose is broken. I like windy day but not a very cold weather, it's a hell for me.
"It's cold today."
"I know."
Oliver stands at the doorway with his quidditch equipments. He looks at his husband who are working hardly in the living room. Then he looks at the window, although it's just 8 in the morning but the sky is already as dark as the night.
"I said, IT'S COLD TODAY."
"I know. It's London here, what whether are you suppose it'll be?"
Percy senses the grumpy from Oliver's words. He puts down his pen and lean backwards to the chair. He knows what's Oliver try to mention about but he pretends he doesn't know. It's very fun to teased Oliver.
Oliver looks at his husband, swears silently in his head. He's very sure Percy knows what he's saying. Of course he knew the weather here but that's not what he wants to mention. Although they had been together for years, he still not used to say those cheesy things.
"You know what I mean, Perce. It's not about the weather."
"Then what should it be? Weather is the only thing that can affects your body temperature and makes you feel cold."
"Come on, Perce!"
"Come on, Ollie!"
Percy mimics Oliver's expression in his seat. His actions had Oliver once thought if this person is not his husband but someone else like Marcus, he definitely will punch them in their face.
But he can't, because it's Percy.
"I want a goodbye hug."
"What? I can't hear it."
"I WANT A GOODBYE HUG!"
Finally, Oliver shouts it out loud. His face is slightly red because of the shyness. Percy seems very enjoy about it. He chuckles and walks towards Oliver.
Although he doesn't like to hug Oliver when he's fully in his quidditch suit, he still gives him a big warm hug because his man deserves it.
"See? It's not that hard."
"I hate you."
"I know, love you too."
Oliver hugs Percy tightly and hides his red face into his shoulder. This evil man always got a way to let him say those words that he's too shy to say it out loud.
"Actually it's so cold today, I don't even want to wake up from the bed this morning."
"Then why don't you cancel the practice today?"
"You can't cancel quidditch."
"It's just a practice."
"Still."
They just quietly hug each other in the doorway, having some little talks in each other's ear.
"Still cold?"
"A bit."
"But you should go now or else you're gonna be late."
Percy rubs Oliver's cheek with his slender thumbs, Oliver just left out a very big sigh. He doesn't want to leave Percy, he wants to cuddle with him all day long but at the same time he doesn't want to skip the practice too.
"Go get the sweater. I'm very concerned that you'll get a cold from the practice. The temperature is almost 15 out there."
Percy looks at the thermometer. Sometimes the weather in London just very unpredictable, although it's summer here somehow the temperature still makes you feel like winter.
"They are not dry yet."
"Then take mine."
Oliver watches Percy takes off the sweater that he's wearing from his body. He packs them into Oliver's bag.
"You know we're wizard right? You can charm on the wet clothes."
"Just like what you want a hug from me, I want you to wear my sweater."
This time, it is Percy blushing now.
"Today I will come home earlier. Maybe we can have a movie night?"
"Sure, just make sure don't get cold."
Oliver left a big kiss on Percy's lips before he leaves the house. He just left no more than a minute and now they already missing each other.
What a bloody weather.

I can't stop thinking about Percy with his mental illness. The reason I like him is because I share some same personality with Percy too, except im not that smart.
I saw a head canon where in POA, isn't Draco says something to Pansy and Blaise, like "...I'll throw myself from the astronomy tower?...." as joke (well I can't remember the exact lines, but something like this.)
Then, there's also a scene where Draco standing at the astronomy tower, looking down. The head canon I saw is, Draco think of killing himself at the time.
Now, I'll like to add my head canon on it.
Imagine Draco standing there, and there's plenty suicidal thought in his mind, suddenly Percy shows up from nowhere.
The blonde boy in black suit looks at the red hair boy in brown suit. Both of them look very exhausted and broken. Draco was kinda shocked why Percy is here, so is Percy too. They are enemies.
They didn't greet each other, just exchange the look and remain silence. Both of them just stand there, seems like enjoy the scenery but actually thinking kill themselves.
Finally, Percy is the one who talks first. He ask Draco how's his life, Draco didn't answer him but gives him a small bitter smile. Then Draco asks back too, Percy just tell him he got a job in the Ministry, just like he always dreams about it.
Draco knows just because of this, Percy had turn his back to his family and cut of all the connection. This makes him feel more guilty, but Percy seems like can read his mind.
He pats Draco's shoulder and says,
"It's not your fault. I choose what I want and every choice has it own price isn't it?"
At the time, there is no sinner and saint on that astronomy tower. Just two broken suicidal boys having their moment. So, after the ministry has taken by the death eaters, Percy is trapped inside and forced to help them.
Percy got the crucio torture or some shit by the death eaters because they want to test his loyalty. He wants to redeem what he has done, so he pass the test and become the order's spy, but no one no the one who secretly help them a lot is Percy.
When some death eater finally suspect Percy is the spy they are looking for, Draco stands out and admit Percy is the spy. He request to be the one ends Percy's life, but actually let Pansy and Blaise rescue him and take him to the order.
When Molly treated Percy's wound, they found out his skin was covered with different scars. I think there will be a death mark on Percy's arm, because one of the death eater force him having one just to insult him. But one night, Percy burn his skin by using the fire before Blaise and Pansy rescued him out from the hell hole.
Oliver is in charge of taking care Percy. He knows Percy's mental health is extremely bad, paranoid, depressed, surviver guilt etc. Every night Percy is having night terror and panicked attack, Oliver is the one who only can calm him down.
It's kinda long, but that's it. Thanks for your watching!<3
Hear me out:
A muggleAU with Oliver as a pilot and Percy as a flight attendant.
Olive gets to fly a plane and Percy is busy dealing with people in the back. Whenever there is a child that just can’t be quiet he would find the best occupation for them. Little jerks he would astound with a simple ‘yeah, still not worse than when my little twin brothers did x/y’.
Him debating with Karen’s would be amazing.
Often Percy meets up with his siblings all over the world. And he’s carrying a little garden gnome from the burrow with him to photograph him all over the world with famous attractions in the background and sends pictures home to his parents.
When Percy is not meeting up with siblings he hangs out with Oliver. He first doesn’t notice that Oliver is flirting with him.
Perciver (Percy x Oliver) Headcanons
They first met on the train ride to Hogwarts after Percy tripped over Oliver's luggage that he left out in the aisle
After a short argument, Percy went to find an empty compartment, only to find they were none and didn't have much of a choice but sit with Oliver
He was very annoyed to hear that he was more interested in quidditch than actual studies
"I can't wait until I can try out for the quidditch team next year"
"You know there's a lot more to Hogwarts than just quidditch right?"
When the train arrived at the station, Percy was more than happy to leave the compartment and the "annoying quidditch boy" behind
Unfortunately for him, the hat sorted them both into Gryffindor, meaning he would have to deal with and share a dorm with the obnoxious and impulsive jock for the next 7 years
Most of their first year, they completey ignored each other, finding the other extremely annoying
In their second year, Oliver became the Gryffindor quidditch keeper after he did amazingly at tryouts, which Percy wasn't too happy about
He thought that he wasn't taking anything that wasn't quidditch seriously, and he wasn't exactly wrong
Oliver always seemed to insist on putting off homework to practice quidditch
Percy tried to convince Charlie, the current quidditch captain, to kick him off the team multiple different times
"I agree that he should focus more on his studies, but he's the best Keeper Gryffindor has had in years. I can't just kick him off the team. We need him. Maybe you could just try to help him out a bit, you know, encourage him to study more,"
"He'd never listen. He's a complete moron and doesn't care about anything that isnt quidditch,"
"Well you're a complete moron that doesn't care about anything besides your studies but I'd still help you out if you needed it,"
Percy decided not to go Charlie's suggestion to help Oliver out, thinking that it would be a waste of time and continued with his earlier plan to simply ignore him completely
However, half way through third year Mcgonagall offered Percy a chance at some extra credit, and of course he agreed before she even explained what it was all about
She explained to him that Oliver wasn't doing very well in transfiguration and if he continued doing poorly, he would have to be removed from the quidditch team so he could focus more on his studies and when she had discussed the matter with Charlie, he suggested having Percy tutor him
If it wasn't for the fact that he'd hate to go back on his word and disappoint Mcgonagall, he wouldn't have done it at all
Although he didn't hate the idea of tutoring such a moron much less
He tutored him for the rest of third year, and neither of them were too happy about having to associate with the other as much as they did
Fourth Year, Oliver was appointed quidditch captain by Mcgonagall (and just as Charlie had requested)
Percy continued to try his best to ignore him, although it was becoming harder and harder to do since they had most of the same classes
One night a few weeks before the first Gryffindor quidditch match of the season, he found Oliver alone in the Gryffindor common room with rolls of parchment and quills everywhere
"Finally decided to do a bit of studying?" Percy asked in a mocking tone
"No actually. I'm working on strategies for the quidditch game. Not that you'd understand," Oliver retorted as he took out another roll of parchment from his bag
Percy grabbed one of the pieces of parchment paper and examined it closely
After he took a look at a few others, he quickly realized how well Oliver was at strategizing
"These strategies-"
"Let me guess, are terrible and not as good as your brother's?"
"I was going to say genius,"
Oliver quickly looked up at him to try to see if it seemed like he was lying or not
"You really think so?"
"Of course I do, we both know that if i didn't think they were good I'd just tell you,"
"Thanks" Oliver replied awkwardly
"Might I offer a few suggestions,"
"I don't see why not,"
For the rest of the night, the two boys continued to discuss quidditch strategies for the upcoming game
After that night, they started to talk to each other a lot more, slowly realizing the other wasnt so bad after all
Percy even agreed to tutor him once again, as long as he actually tried to put forth the effort
They quickly became friends and often stayed up late into the night, talking about quidditch and exams and helping each other when ever they needed it
Their fifth year was definitely a bit more complicated than that with Percy being busy with prefect duties and Oliver with quidditch
It seemed as if the less time they spent together, the more they both realised how much they actually liked each other
About half way through fifth year, Percy's good friend, Penelope Clearwater, asked him if he was seeing anyone
"Do you have a girlfriend?"
"No"
"Perhaps a boyfriend then?"
"Nope"
"Well what about Wood? You two seemed awfully close last year,"
"He's just a friend"
"Mhm sure he is,"
"What do you mean?"
"I mean just friends, don't look at each other the way you two look at each other,"
Percy thought about what Penelope said a lot over the next few days, slowly becoming more and more confused as to how he felt about Oliver
He also kept thinking about how even if he did like him, there was no way Oliver felt the same- or even liked boys for that matter
It seemed like Oliver had a new girlfriend every few weeks, never sticking with one for long
Percy began ignoring him on accident, and Oliver was quick to notice but chose not to say anything, worried that he had done something to cause Percy to be mad at him
The silence continued between the two for the rest of that school year, and wasnt addressed until the beginning of their sixth year
"Percy, we need to talk,"
"About what?"
"Did- did I do something that upset you last year?"
"Of course not. What would make you say that?"
"Well its just that you kept ignoring me is all,"
"I'm really sorry about, I wasn't meaning to its just-" Percy took a deep breath in and decided to be honest with him "It's just that Penelope suggested that I liked you and then i started thinking about it and slowly realized that what she said was true so I accidentally started ignoring you,"
"Wait, you like me?"
"I know it's stupid and that you don't feel the same,"
"What do you mean? I've had a crush on you since fourth year,"
"What?!"
"I thought I had made it so obvious,"
"I- I never realized once. But if you do like me, then why do you keep dating so many different girls?"
"I was trying to make you jealous. I honestly don't even like girls,"
"Wow. I feel so stupid,"
"Me too,"
After that they decided that they wanted to be in a relationship together, but wanted to keep things a secret for the time being
The rest of their sixth year went pretty smoothly, and everything went really well until seventh year
During their seventh year, they weren't able to talk much during the day since both were really busy (Oliver with quidditch and Percy with head boy duties)
They still always tried to make time for each other tho
After losing the match to Hufflepuff, they snuck out of the castle and got some butterbeer and Percy attempted to cheer Oliver up (it did work in the end)
Later on after Gryffindor won the house cup, the two ended up just cuddling and kissing in their dorm room instead of joining the other Gryffindors in the common room party since Percy wasn't fond of all the noise
Once the two left Hogwarts a few weeks later, they both decided to keep in touch by letter and meet up when they could
When the Quidditch world cup was announced, Oliver offered to buy Percy a ticket for the seat next his, but he respectfully declined, already planning to sit with his family
Despite this, they spent a lot of time together while there
Almost immediately after the quidditch match ended, they snuck off together and ended up snogging by a lake not too far from where they were camping
Unfortunately Charlie found them kissing when he went to go look for Percy, and both of them became extremely flustered
"I uhh, we were just, umm, Oliver what were we doing again" Percy stammered, getting redder by the second
"Umm well weren't you just trying my butterbeer chapstick" Oliver replied, not trying to make eye contact with either of them
"Yes of course, and now that I have, I'll just leave" He tried to walk away but Charlie grabbed his arm before he could
"Wait just a minute Perce. I know that you and Oliver are dating,"
"What?? Why didn't you tell me that we were dating Percy?" Oliver lied, trying to act like he had no idea of what's going on
"You're not helping," Percy scolded his boyfriend
"I just saw you snogging him, if you're going to lie to me, at least try to do it well" Charlie mumbled
"I don't mind you two being together, and I promise I won't tell anyone" he added
"Thanks," Percy sighed
"So wait, you're not going to kill me for kissing your little brother?" Oliver asked jokingly
"Of course not" He laughed. "Bill probably would've though,"
"Well I'm just going to go back to camp now. I assume dad's wondering where I am," Percy attempted to walk away again
"One more thing,"
"What is it?"
"I just wanted you know that I think he's a keeper," Charlie laughed loudly
Oliver quickly joined in on the laughter and Percy groaned out of annoyance
I'm just going to leave this off here since its already really long but if you want me to write some more post Hogwarts Perciver hcs or any ship or character hcs, let me know (you can comment on this post if you want me to make more Perciver hcs and tell me through asks or dm for other character hc requests)
*Percy and Oliver casually doing their own thing in their living room.*
Percy: *remembered that one time Oliver slept the wrong bed in their Year 6*
Percy: Hey Ollie, I got something to ask you.
Oliver: Sure, what you wanna ask Perce?
Percy: You remember that time in Year 6, you accidentally slept in my bed after your Quidditch practice.
Oliver: Ermmm… I think I kinda remember, what’s wrong?
Percy: So that time, you already gay? I mean, closeted? all the time??
Oliver:*shook his head* Well I’m not gay.
Percy:*put down his book and stare into Oliver’s soul” WhAt YoU meAn YOU ARE NOT GAY?! tHEn WhY thE FUCK you ClimB IN mY bEd and CuddliNG wItH ME?!?! YoU knOW that’s not HOW BROmAncE wOrK-
Oliver:*pull Percy over and give him a very passionate kiss”
Oliver:Well I’m not gay, I just want to fuck you.*whisper to Percy’s ear in an erotic way*
Blushed Percy: FUCK.
Oliver: Yes, fuck. *throw Percy into the sofa and started make out.*
Thinking about the parallels between Gi-hun and Ali’s characters…
Both Ali and Gi-hun possess a similar kind of innocence: they contain high levels of empathy, are deeply sensitive, have a mind towards community, care about the wellbeing of others, and give strangers the benefit of the doubt more than are deserving.
But whereas Ali is innocent in his unwavering selflessness, Gi-hun–even though he has selfishly (unintentionally or not) brought ruin to those around him–his innocence lies in the fact that he hasn’t grown up. He’s still essentially a child. Gi-hun is surviving off the back of his mother’s hard work as she literally wastes her body away. He has not matured enough to learn responsibility towards work, his daughter, finances, interpersonal relationships nor has he awoken to the fact that his actions lead to negative consequences. He does not realize the extent to which he is negatively impacting the people closest to him, partly because he’s self-interested, but also in the way of a child, he still needs to be cared for and expects that of others around him. His daughter takes care of him emotionally because she pities him and recognizes that his bad parenting are a result of ignorance and lack of self-awareness. Gi-hun’s mother is still feeding, housing, clothing and advising him because a loving parent will not willingly let their child suffer, even if it’s in their best interest to make them become better people.
Gi-hun has been cushioned all his life; he’s literally been abandoned in the nest. It makes sense that this is who he has become. Gi-hun, when we meet him, is still living in a bubble; the Squid Game is a complete shattering of this safe world without responsibility that he has created for himself. He forcibly learns that there are those who quietly suffer around him and comes to know of the harsh world of capitalism where people are treated worse than the race horses he bets on.
However, he is also friendly towards others, expresses generosity to all living creatures, and easily shares in the joys and sorrows of those around him. He refuses to alienate anyone and is, for all intents and purposes, a good person. It’s just not enough. His character is testament to the fact that good intentions are never suffice. We have to do better. We have to be better people by actually showing up, double knotting our shoelaces, and doing the hard task. I love Gi-hun’s development and the fact that his guilt never fully leaves him. By the end of the season, he is burdened with accountability. His being alive is a reminder that it was at the expense of someone else, the money he reluctantly won was earned because 454 people had to be killed. His entering the game meant that his mother died without any aid, and that San-woo’s mother won’t know what happened to her son. By the end, his innocence is gone but he gains the necessary grit to make him want to actively bite back the system. I think that’s pretty neat writing.
Let's try to adopt a new perspective. Let's try to train our minds that when we say "Allahu Akbar" so many times a day, it means that in our hearts Allah is bigger than anything, Allah is bigger than our fears, Allah is bigger than our worries, Allah is bigger than our anxiety, Allah is bigger than all. Literally, Allahu kulla.
"It was for the greater good" Said Ron looking at Percy.
Percy stopped his rant, he froze looking Ron in the eye in horror and concern. "Greater good... Is that what he told you, Ron?" He said, he wasn't yelling anymore he was quiet.
"That you're safety didn't matter, that it's fine that you have almost died every year since you were 11...that the people who were supposed to prourect you failed you?" He said, he looked terrified and it shook Ron to the core.
And he wasn't the only one, Harry was looking at Percy as if he'd never seen him before.
"My brothers bought you home from a literal cage, and I'm right in assuming that wasn't the first time that happened aren't I, Harry? How can you defend a man who raised you to die."
There were horrified gasps throughout the room but no one stopped him.
"Voldermort killed my parents, its my duty as the chosen one" argued Harry, trying to find his footing but he couldn't. "He's killed thousands, Harry. You're parents, my uncles, Longbottoms parents... I don't know about this whole chosen one shit but you are a child." Said Percy.
Harry frowned "and what, that it means I can't do anything that I should just sit there as he kills everyone I love?!" He yelled, Percy shook his head "I'm not saying that, I'm saying that this shouldn't be you're responsiblity. You should be playing Quidditch, focusing on your exams and classes, playing with your mates... Not fighting a war at 11 yearolds old. I'm not saying you can't fight, I'm saying you shouldn't have to." Said Percy, he was pleading almost begging that Harry could see that.
"Percival" said Arthur, warningly and Percy's demeanor stiffned and shifted to anger. People often forgot that Percy was the one who had inherited his mother's temperament. "What? Do you value that crusty old man's words so much you'd let him kill you're children?" Snapped Percy.
" How dare you say such a thing, to your own father." said Arthur, trying not to lose his own temper. Percy laughed, it was cold and humourless and sent shivers down there spines. "He came up with a plan to lure your children to face a murderer all to test them... He knew about the chamber and never did anything not even when you're daughter was having her life sucked out from her. Ginny could've died... And he did nothing. Does that not mean anything to you!" Spat Percy, tears in his eyes.
No one spoke.
Percy shook his head "fine... I should be heading out anyway" he said, turning to leave but before he did he looked at the younger ones sat she'll shocked. "Don't any of you ever think your life was made to be thrown away." He said, trying to stop himself from crying than and there. Percy put a strong hand on Ron and Ginny's shoulders "I know what you think of me, and that's okay. But if you ever need me, I'll be there. Be there for each other, don't... Don't lose yourselves for another man's war." He said, getting up to leave.
"Percy..." Said Harry, Percy turned around. Harry wasn't sure what to make of Percy's statement, he felt werid and maybe one day he'd understand those words the middle Weasely child had yelled before heading into the dead of night alone.
"Thank you" said Harry, simply. Percy nodded, rigid as usual but there was a softness to his face, hope even as he left.
-> PERCY AND OLIVER TEXT MESSAGES
This is Part 1
Also all of these convos are from @supersharkgentlemen dialogue posts. Go to their page, like, reblog and follow,the dialogues are hilarious
I just wanted to put them in chat format
So here you go
Oliver: All right, listen up you little gits.
Oliver: Not you, Percy. You’re an angel and we’re thrilled to have you here.
Of Course I Can
I'm sorry.
I was thinking about the "always" quote and listening to sad music and this was born.
I cried while writing this - maybe I'm just a baby, maybe I did good. I'll let you decide.
No character death, no physical hurt, just a lot of emotions.
Happy reading.
...
“Gin, I don’t think that’s a good idea, I don’t want either of us getting in trouble,” Percy explained.
“They can’t get you in trouble,” Ginny countered, smiling up at him. “You’re gonna be the minister!”
“No, Ginny, I’m not, don’t you know anything - ”
The moment the words were out, Percy regretted them horribly.
“No. I’m sorry, Ginny, I didn’t mean that,” Percy said quickly, kneeling before his little sister so he was looking her in the eyes. Percy was in sixth year and was already over six feet, while Ginny was barely a month over eleven and barely four-and-a-half feet tall. Percy remembered when Ginny was small enough for him to cradle in his arms, so she still seemed far too grown for his tastes. “I’m sorry. Can you forgive me?”
Ginny smiled. “Of course I can,” she said.
Percy smiled warmly back. “Thank you.”
“Do you want to know a secret?”
Percy raised an eyebrow. “Sure.”
Ginny leaned forward and cupped her hand around her mouth. “You’re my favorite brother,” she whispered.
Percy pulled back, surprised. “Really? Not even Ron?”
“Really,” Ginny claimed.
Percy chuckled. “Well, lucky for you, you’re my favorite sister.”
“I’m your only sister, idiot.”
“It won’t get to your head, then,” Percy teased, tapping her on the head. She scrunched up her face and pushed his hand away, and he stood again, laughing.
“Why won’t you be minister?” Ginny asked suddenly. “You’re really smart.”
Percy hesitated. “It’s not that simple, Gin,” he admitted, weighing his words carefully. “It takes a lot of money to run a successful campaign, money that I simply don’t have.”
Ginny pouted. “That doesn’t seem fair.”
“It’s not,” Percy agreed.
Ginny looked up at him, looking terribly innocent. She was quite bright for her age, but still had the shine of childhood on her. “We really don’t have any money, do we?” she asked softly.
Percy sighed. “No, Gin. We don’t.” He wanted to say more on the matter - wanted to criticize, to call out his parents on mistake after mistake, but Ginny didn’t need to know about that just yet. The truth could wait. “The problem is it affects more than just the little things. Like buying sweets and new books and having pets.”
“What d’you mean?” Ginny asked. “Like big things like vacations?”
“Like jobs,” Percy corrected. “Opportunities. If one of us needed to retake their OWLs or NEWTs because of a bad score, we wouldn’t be able to afford to. We only get one shot, but the rich kids can take them over and over. And then it’s harder for us to get good jobs, and make more money. They want us to stay poor. Do you see?”
Ginny nodded. “I think so.”
Percy smiled. “But you don’t have to worry about that just yet,” he assured her.
She nodded again, then sighed. “You would’ve made a good minister,” she decided.
“Thanks, Gin.”
“You would’ve changed that,” she said. “You wouldn’t let them keep people poor.”
“No, I wouldn’t,” Percy agreed.
“Why is it still like that?” Ginny asked, once again looking to Percy as though he had all the answers. As if he knew everything in the world. She did that a lot, and Percy couldn’t decide if he liked it or not.
Percy chewed his lip, trying to figure out what to say and how to say it. “Sometimes people make mistakes,” he said slowly, “and a lot of ministers have made the mistake of not changing a lot of things.” He smiled gently. “But that doesn’t always make them a bad person. We have to decide whether we can forgive them or not.”
~~~
Ginny hugged Percy tightly, burying her face in his shirt, feeling his arms wrap around her. “I missed you,” she breathed, her throat constricting with tears.
“I missed you too,” Percy whispered. “Oh, Ginny, I’m so sorry. I’m so, so sorry.”
“I know,” Ginny said. She pulled back so she could look Percy in the eyes. He was crying, tears slipping out from under his glasses. Ginny hated to see her brothers cry. “I forgive you.”
“You don’t have to say that, Gin,” Percy said, shaking his head. “You don’t have to say something you don’t mean.”
“I do mean it,” Ginny said. “I think you were a right prat and I think you were an idiot but I forgive you.” She sniffed, her throat so tight now from holding back her own tears it stung to breathe. “Remember what you said, when I was little? I get to choose. I get to decide whether I forgive you or not, and I don’t think you’re a bad person. I forgive you.” She took Percy’s hands, feeling them shaking in hers. “Now you get to decide if you forgive us for pushing you away.” She swallowed. “If you forgive me.”
Percy squeezed Ginny’s hands, then pulled her back into a hug. “Of course I forgive you,” he said. “You’re my baby sister, Ginny, I love you so much. It was never you.”
“Am I still your favorite sister?” Ginny asked, her voice cracking with the effort of holding the tears at bay.
“Always,” Percy whispered back. “Always.”

we had our student wellness seminar today and there was a brief session about how to be more focused and excel at studies. So I took down a few points and I hope this helps<3
Effective and consistent study helps you to show what you know and avoid excessive test stress.
Identify 1 topic per week to teach someone else. Keep sessions under 40 minutes and include a few minutes for review.
Create practice tests with true/false, fill in and multiple–choice questions covering each lecture or text chapter.
Record the date you complete each assignment and take a quiz about the concepts and problems you completed.
Test yourself by writing summaries, facts, examples or diagrams without looking at notes or text.
When studying, first take an untimed practice test provided by the instructor or in chapters of the text.
Schedule time to reread chapter introductions, summaries, vocabulary lists and illustrations prior to tests.
Separate parts of the course that require memorization of facts versus analysis of concepts or problem solving.
Limit your efforts to memorize tedious facts and formulae to 25–minute periods so that you stay alert and effective.
Use sketches and diagrams to specify the process and tasks needed to complete a long–term project.
Stop interruptions by alerting others about the times you are unavailable because you are studying.
If you can’t study in total quiet, use a form of white noise such as a fan or soft music.
Get at least 7 hours of sleep to give you the mental and physical energy needed to concentrate in lectures and when reading.
Increase your ability to focus if you are upset. Take 5 minutes to write concerns or questions. Then shift into a work mode.
Give yourself a high five after a session in which you focus and learn. Recognize and reward yourself for a job well done.
Keep your eyes closed and switch scenes. Imagine a situation in which you had an academic success. Congratulate yourself for a job well done.
Increase the amount of information you remember after studying - review information within 24 to 48 hours.
yeah that was it. i found it vaguely interesting that my school is actually caring about us but anyway here you. hope this helps and hope we both get good grades :)
