Fear," he smiled as if he was making a joke you didn't yet understand, "shouldn't control you. Not when it comes to opportunities like this."

You're silent, worrying your bottom lip between your teeth. Frozen in indecision, eyes focused on a random paper on his desk.

Then he said your name quietly.

"Fear only has as much power as you want to give it."

You looked him in his eyes- his crystal clear eyes, penetrating and sharp in their clarity- and the words spilled from your mouth like you'd been put under a spell. Hypnotized, like always.

"Alright. Then I'll do it."

or,

Reader accepts an offer to TA for Dr. Jonathan Crane's Psychology of Fear class and everything goes to shit from there.

My name carries weight, heavier than you might ever imagine. It is always associated with hatred, fear, and darkness-everything everyone expected me to be. One lesson I learned young is that it's better to be feared. But I was the one scared of him, of her, of their power and my own reflection. I've inherited his dark brown eyes-heavy, emotionless, and empty. I've got her curls, and hell, even her facial features. That's the worst part of me: seeing their creation reflected in my face. I am just another puppet, their biggest disappointment, yet still enough to lead when things get out of hand. Another year of classes, another year closer to my end-mentally and physically. Their whispers follow me everywhere, in every corner, as if I were the cause of all this, as if I had chosen it. Like hell, I would. By now, their ugly words no longer reach me. At least that's what I'm telling myself. My jaw always clenched, holding back any emotion, any words, any fists. I hate how they fear me and how they act around me, but, honestly, I'm even scared of myself. But it was better this way; someone closer than my arm's length would complicate things. Right? Right. Credit for Mattheo Riddle goes out to Yasemin and anything related to Harry Potter obviously to JK Rowling.πŸ’— Her headcanons of him are mixed with mine a little. You always disagreed with popular Mattheo Riddle? Let me show you my version of Mattheo Riddle. Enjoy the readπŸ’ž

Your final school year is going to be a pure absolute hell or a rather meek version of hell when the dark secrets behind your Teacher have begun to come to the fore.

Viewer description is recommended. ⚠️ All rights reserved go to @plasebo3ff3ct. THIS ISN'T MY STORY! The original author account got deleted. I and many others loved that story ALOT so unfortunately there won't be any more updates other than the ones I've posted here.

"I was reaching for stars that didn't exist, caught up in the fantasies born of willful hope. I threw myself in the path of fate because I wanted to be swept away." ... We do stupid, stupid things in the name of those we love. We dedicate ourselves to false promises and we hope that in the end, it all turns out alright. I was never the kind of person who jumped into things without thinking about the consequences. I never dreamed of what could come from some silly mistakes. Two new students come for their 6th year at Hogwarts. Neither of them particularly want to be there. What havoc could a witch and a dark wizard bring to the year? As they both become frustratingly curious about each other, things fall in place that might never have occurred if they had just never met. ... So I started this book because I was bored, and now it's kind of my life accomplishment weirdly enough. It's not perfect and definitely not what it started out as but this fic has parts of my heart and soul in it and I'm proud of how far it's come. Contains toxic but also lovable Mattheo Riddle and an emotionally relatable mc. !!!Finished updating but still doing some editing!!! *WARNING* Contains violence, sexual content, swearing, mentions of abuse, death and possibly more. *I do not own any of the Harry Potter characters, Mattheo Riddle belongs to @yasmineamara, I only own my own characters. Happy reading

** this is my first ever novel, so please don't judge if I mess up a little on my words** 18+ story As I look into his dark brown eyes, those same brown eyes that pull me into a trance, I worriedly ask "Are you sure we won't get caught, we could get into serious trouble" I stated as he just stared at me with his subtle smirk. "I'll make sure we won't," he says whispering into my ear sending chills down my back. "Now bend down, and do as I say." Bending me down, i turn my head, looking into his lustful eyes.. I want him forever, even if I have to obey his every word. .-.-.-. Some ranks we reached so far! #1 Pascal #1 Professorxstudent #1 Celebritycrush #1 professor #2 Obey #2 Pedro #3 Collegestories #5 PedroPascal

Loudly affectionate, wildly persistent, and armed with a Hufflepuff heart too stubborn to quit, she's spent years chasing after the moody Slytherin boy with teasing flirtations and sunflower-sweet smiles. Mattheo, on the other hand, has spent just as many years pretending not to notice. But everyone else does-especially Cedric Diggory. Now graduated and far from Hogwarts, Cedric thought he was finally free from the chaos his sister trails like glitter. Until Elspeth, Aurelia's best friend, starts sending him regular letters. Detailed ones. About Mattheo. And kisses. And late-night "study" sessions. Cue the dramatic Howlers, echoing through the Great Hall with big brother fury and increasingly creative threats. But everything changes the day Mattheo finally snaps mid-argument-pulls her close, cuts her off, and kisses her like he's been dying to. Turns out, even a Riddle can fall for a Diggory. And Aurelia? She might've spent years chasing him... but now he's the one who can't let go. πŸ’«βœ©πŸβ™¬ β‚ŠΛš.πŸ«€β‹†β˜Ύβ‹†βΊπŸβ‚Šβœ§πŸ’« *i do not own hp franchise *i only own my oc *its a mattheo riddle x oc *no war

Jonathan Crane gets bored and, as one does in Gotham, becomes a psych professor. Somehow, no one stops him. The students love him. The staff avoid him. And no one quite remembers rehiring him in the first place. Tim Drake is stationed at Gotham University under the guise of "monitoring" him. He's expecting horror. He finds... a surprisingly good syllabus, a strange sense of calm, and a friend group that doesn't know what a vigilante is. Crane, for his part, knows exactly who Tim is. He doesn't care, he just wants to teach. And maybe terrify a few freshmen along the way. Or: No one knows who rehired Professor Crane, but panic attacks come with bonus points and Tim's never been happier.
