happy birthday to THE LOVE OF MY LIFE (tom hughes)
WHAT A MAN!!! can’t believe he has a birthday, that’s so insane to just wrap your head around honestly.
@bugishmugi happy birthday to the man of my dreams ! (christian coulson must not read this)
heyoo!! how are you doing ?
hiiiii!!! i’m doing alright, been really busy lately with my classes + writing, thank u for asking!! what about you?? x
happy new year pookies!! i wish you the greatest time ever with your loved ones and the best year of your life yet :33
happy birthday to my eternally doomed beautiful princess with a disorder and the worst boy ever!! tom riddle you will always be famous in my eyes. i wish to see him in nothing but absolute distress and crisis in every single fanwork i witness/create for the next year. got me twirling my hair since like 2015. unfortunately one of my favorite characters of all time. would write paragraphs but our lore is just too complex (graduating in yappology) love you so much grandpa xx
been inactive with my reading lately, i’ll catch up on everyone’s books when i have time :3
anyways, except a fic soon!! (or not)
@bugishmugi HAPPY BIRTHDAY POOKIE HE’S JUST A GIRL! AND YES SAVE HIM FROM ZADE MEADOWS PLS I’LL JOIN YOU
thank u for adding my book to ur reading list!!<3
tell me i’m not alone when i say that what’s with these people shipping tom with nagini like that’s genuinely so fucking weird. “he was as fond of her as he could be of anything” ok? that’s still a snake? and no idc if she’s a maledictus. would the idea be as appealing to them if she was a man? yeah that’s what i thought. i swear everyone’s so desperate to see him with a feminine figure but we as a society need to accept that it didn’t happen. at this point if basilisk was confirmed to be female they’d go for it as well. one day people could start shipping him with helena ravenclaw and i wouldn’t even be surprised
@regretmedaisy exacltyyyy this could be endless because i could honestly talk about this till morning. it’s either he recognizes the feeling and rejects it immediately, convincing himself that it’s for the manipulation to feel better OR starts with manipulating a certain subject with an intention and then slowly realizes that might not be the only reason he engages in it and both depends on the context and the oc fr!!! and also how long they’ve known each other for sure. while he’s very harsh and pragmatic in nature the situation would still vary because i mean he’s just a human like everyone else, we can theorize and still explore and both could work
@regretmedaisy YES YES OMG!!! it’s so interesting to see just how he developed his techniques and slowly coming to the realization like “hm, yes i may be a bad person but i’m also incredibly beautiful” and just using it against everyone else. his looks were just one of the means to his ends and he probably saw it as a tool to achieve what he wanted to become. as to whether he can feel sexual feelings or just none at all, i think he can, but he didn’t, as there was no love interest in his life. like what’s fun in fanfics is the fact that canonically some of them would actually be believable if only they happened. genuine love, no, but i don’t believe he was beyond redemption, he WOULD make the other person’s life a living hell, though. but i think he would be so unfamiliar with anything sexual he would probably never even recognize it on his own, or would be in denial and saying the sole purpose of it was his own gain and not satisfaction physically
@crierayla the way i had to screenshot this because you just described what i’ve been trying to let out for SO LONG. it’s totally fine to self-indulgence as not everyone is as normal about him as we are and people can enjoy a character without an overly detailed phsychological analysis, as most of them haven’t read the books and that’s totally fine. but what makes me absolutely DEVASTATED, and i mean like seriously affects my mood while and after reading it is the long fics in which authors claim to write him realistically, have a psych degree, 78338k word essays, JUST FOR THEM TO sooner or later somehow put him in a frame of a mainstream stereotype like everyone else. and i KNOW writing a ff is hard and there are thing i can forgive despite the fact that i easily complain about things, but writing him as a “bad boy” is more simple minded, yk, i won’t even consider it seriously and move on. what drives me absolutely nuts is his characterization being so close yet SO FAR from who he really is. the limited information we have is so vague sometimes but missing OBVIOUS details is just a crime. you can’t claim to love tom and then make him the same morally grey, dark academka, YA romantic interest ahh, edgy, openly ruthless boy with no depth yet make it seem like he has one. i get the love for the tropes, but that’s just not who he is. “bad boy” can be justified by young age, but the latter is simply unacceptable, makes me want to kms. i’ll be literally reading it and you can TELL exactly in which moment the author decided to write him as who they imagine him to be rather than who they have come to the logical conclusion that he is.
i honestly don’t know what the hell was wrong with some of us and our childhoods but i definitely had no influence from my family or media regarding that matter while in my hp phase as a little girl. what i DO remember is having watched the movies quintillion times feeling unfazed but it was that one scene in 6th book when there’s tom’s thought process described in great detail and the subtle descriptions of filth slowly taking over his mind (with eyes turning red and everything) when hepzibah smith showed him that cup and locket that had 10 year old me giggling and twirling my hair and thinking back to this i’m like wtf was that. if it had happened in this decade i would’ve easily blamed social media and romanticization of murderers but i genuinely have no idea what to make out of this except uhhh get it i guess. hot girls have sapiosexual tendencies
@mydarkflower yelling/cursing tom is so hot. there’s just something about composed people losing their temper that makes me feral
@mydarkflower HELPPP i read somewhere that they might’ve turned to stairs since he was the rightful heir but imagine him being all dirty and musty if he ever jumped down in there LMFAO he would be so irritated
@mydarkflower OH MY GOD FR FR WE’RE LITERALLY SOULMATES there’s smth about tom that is so different from any other villain that makes me want to find out every aspect about his entire thought process like i’m not impressed by looks as much as i’m impressed by how his brain works istg jkr gave us the most interesting backstory just to leave us dry. my aspiring psychologist is really showing in these analyses always
does writing often feel like “wow, this is the best job i could’ve done at this and my hard work is showing, i should probably never do it again for the rest of my life” or am i just acoustic?
@ace_asterisk NAH FR i only know if it’s decent once a week has passed and it hadn’t gotten worse LMFAO
@ace_asterisk like yolo, we can do this. nobody cares if it's bad (I do. I throw up in my room every night because I hate everything I write)
