‘i carry your heart’ by E.E.Cummings

i carry your heart with me (i carry it in

my heart) i am never without it (anywhere

i go you go, my dear; and whatever is done

by оnly me is your doing, my darling)

i fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) i want

no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true)

and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant

and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows

(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud

and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows

higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)

and this is the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart (i carry it in my heart)

Neville would have done it in four books.

In a fight between Grindelwald and Voldemort, the winner would be Neville.

Neville Longbottom will reject your bribes and kill your pet.

What happens when you break an Unbreakable Vow? Neville.

When riding the Knight Bus, Neville refers to himself as Harry Potter to avoid unwanted attention.

Why did Voldemort mark Harry as his equal? Because he took оne look at baby Neville and said "Oh, hell no."

Courage to continue to watch the show.

And wisdom to remember i am not a member of the psychotic part of the fandom.

Amen.

- Не знаю, хотел ли я вообще когда-нибудь славы как таковой. Это все равно что хотеть быть инженером больше, чем хотеть что-то сконструировать, или хотеть быть писателем больше, чем хотеть писать. Слава- побочный эффект, а не вещь в себе. В противном случае это просто самовозвеличивание.

 

I don't know that I ever wanted greatness, оn its own. It seems rather like wanting to be an engineer, rather than wanting to design something-or wanting to be a writer, rather than wanting to write. It should be a by-product, not a thing in itself. Otherwise, it's just an ego trip.

25 Lives, by Tongari

The very first time I remember you, you are blonde and don’t love me back.

The next time you are brunette, and you do.

After a while I give up trying to guess if the colour of your hair means anything.

because even if you don’t exist, I am always in love with you.

I remember most fondly those lifetimes where we get to grow up together,

when you share your secrets and sorrows and hiding places with me.

I love how you play along with my bad ideas,

before you grow up and realize they are bad ideas.

(And in our times together I have many bad ideas.)

When we meet as adults you’re always much more discerning. I don’t blame you.

Yet, always, you forgive me.

As if you understand what’s going оn, and you’re making up for

all the lifetimes in which оne of us doesn’t exist,

and the оnes where we just, barely, never meet.

I hate those. I prefer the оnes in which you kill me.

But when all’s said and done, I’d surrender to you in other ways.

Even though each time, I know I’ll see you again, I always wonder

is this the last time?

Is that really you?

And what if you’re perfectly happy

without me?

Ah, but I don’t blame you; I’ll never burn as brilliantly as you. It’s оnly fair

that I should be the оne

to chase you across ten, twenty-five, a hundred lifetimes

until I find the оne where you’ll return to me.

Murphy’s law, applied to fanfics.

- The fic starts out great, nice style, language, captivating summary. It’s unfinished and has been abandoned since 2013.

- The fic is complete, nice style, language, tons of kudos speak for themselves. It’s about your NOTP.

- The fic is about your OTP, it’s complete, it’s kinky as hell. The plot is absolutely dumbass.

- The plot sounds great, it’s about your OTP, it’s complete. The characters are horribly OOC.

- Everything is perfect in this fic, starting from the first letter and ending with the last full stop. It’s exactly 800 words long.

- The fic’s word count is a six-figure number, it’s about your OTP, characters are compliant with your head-canon. It’s dull and boring as seven hells.

- The beginning is enthralling, everything’s great, the plot, the style, it’s long and it’s even about your OTP. It features something that makes you close the tab as soon as you open it, like father/daughter incest or mpreg or some other squicky thing.

- Everything is perfect in this fic, the length, the characters, the language, the style, you forget you’re reading fanfic, thinking it’s a masterpiece of true literature, you cry tears of joy and write a huge review full of gushing love and then rush to the author’s profile to read every other thing they’ve written. It’s their оnly work.
