You're drowning, and then they're there. They hold your hand and suddenly you forget that you were struggling for oxygen, that you're sinking deeper into the depths.
Then they leave your hand, swim away from you. Now you've sank deeper than you would've alone; theres no oxygen and you can't remember what way is up. All you remember is they're not there and how empty your hands feel. And you trying to fight your way and you finally crash the surface.
You look down and again they're there. You forget every struggle you made to reach the surface and go with them again. Just to remember how their hands feel in yours.
And so it continues...
truth or dare? uhhh i dare you to………………………………………..fall in love with me. haha i’m just joking bro…………………. unless……………………….?
Reblog if its okay to message you on anon until I am comfortable enough to reveal myself to you
Keep the flame going for those we have lost to suicide.
How many Supernatural fans are there on Tumblr?
You are only allowed to reblog this ONCE. Any more than once and this is completely ruined.
Reblog if you’re a Supernatural fan so we can see how many of us there are out there!
So is harry stuck as a rabbit forever?
This is by far the best thing ever!
Stephen Hawking, you will always be a part of us. Now that you have finally become a part of the cosmos, your life is complete, but mine feels incomplete now that i don't have you. I don't think i will ever get used to the fact that you're not here with us. For it is not much of a universe, if it is not home for the ones you love, and now i believe you are finally home.. You'll always be in here, with us❤

let’s be real, half the reason all us nerds want to go to hogwarts is so we can go to a school with no p.e/gym class
like seriously, quidditch is the closest thing hogwarts gets to physical education, and it’s about as active as playing mario kart
Everyone thinks that Sirius will be the one accidentally swearing in front of baby Harry constantly. Little do they know it’s Remus. Every. Single. Time.
Reasons why the Harry Potter movies really messed up the Marauders
- Let’s start with the most obvious point : their age.
All actors who play characters from the Marauders’ era are way too old. Lily and James died at the age of 21 but in Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, Geraldine Somerville and Adrian Rawlins were respectively 34 and 41 years old.
Having older actors play Harry’s parents totally negates the fact that they were just kids when they died (and also that they were just kids when they had Harry, and considering that they were in the middle of a war, Harry was most certainly an accident, but let’s not get into that right now). It makes their death less tragic, plus it’s just not accurate ok.
These guys are also way too old
Anyone who attended Hogwarts at the same time as James and Lily would have been in their 30s during Harry’s years. That’s just not the case of Alan Rickman, Gary Oldman, David Thewlis and Timothy Spall. Again, the whole tragedy of their lives revolves around the fact that they never got to grow old (or even to grow up in Sirius’ case, but again, that’s another issue/theory). Snape was only 38 when he died, but Alan Rickman was 65 in Deathly Hallows part 2. Now, I love Alan Rickman’s portrayal of Snape as much as the next person, but this age thing still bothers me a lot.
- Another very obvious point : Lily’s eyes
I mean, how do you even screw up so badly? How many times is it mentioned that Lily had green eyes, just like Harry’s? First of all, neither Harry nor the various actresses who played Lily had green eyes, but they hired an actress to play young Lily whose eyes didn’t even match Daniel Radcliffe’s?
I know the fandom has been talking about this for ages, and we should all have moved on by now, but it’s such an important part of the story, I don’t think I can ever get over it.
- On to point number 3 : THIS
James Potter was indeed on the Gryffindor Quidditch team, but certainly not in 1970, as he attended Hogwarts from 1971 to 1979, and as a Chaser, NOT a Seeker.
- Should we even talk about this?
First of all, those two actors look nothing alike, and second of all, there is no way in hell that this is what James Potter looked like. Everything, from his hair (James is supposed to have dark, messy hair) to his face is off. I don’t know who that is but it’s not James Potter.
- Now, onto a less obvious point : the Marauder’s Map.
I’m sure we all have wondered, at some point or another, why the hell Fred and George never noticed Peter Pettigrew on the map. After all, the name would have been following Percy, and then Ron around all the time.
Well, I do have a theory as to why Peter’s name would not have appeared on the map, but the movies ruined that.
Let me explain. In the movie, Harry sees Peter Pettigrew’s name on the map, but in the book, the only person who sees Peter’s name is Remus.
My theory is that the Marauders, when they made the map, made it so that no one could see their names on it, other than the Marauders themselves. That way, if it fell into the wrong hands (say, a professor’s, or Snape’s), that person couldn’t use it to know their whereabouts. But the other Marauders could see their friends’ names so they always knew where to find each other.
That would explain why Remus was able to see Peter on the map, but Fred and George never noticed the man who literally slept in the same bed as their brother.
Again, since Harry sees Peter on the map in the movie, that theory can no longer be applied, and the plot hole remains.
- Finally, my last, and most important point :
The Marauders’ story is literally NEVER talked about in the movies?? Nowhere does it say that Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs were in fact Remus, Peter, Sirius and James. Nowhere does it say that THEY were the Marauders. Nowhere does it say how or why they became animagi. They don’t talk about the Prank, or why the Whomping Willow was planted, or where the Shrieking Shack got its reputation as a haunted house. Why is Harry’s Patronus a stag? Who tf knows. Someone who never read the books would probably be very confused about the whole Marauders thing, because there. is. literally. nothing. about. them. in. the. movies.

Abusive homes
Have you ever been in an abusive home? Have you seen one from faraway? Have you felt bad for yourself? Wondering, blaming, 17 years later, crying, because you're unable to love yourself? Because now you're this insensitive person who desperately wants some love but doesn't know what or how love is unless its a slap in the face and they call it love? Unless there are no feelings and just two people being miserably abusive to each other? You're blaming your father for hitting you so many times now you've learnt not to cry in the worst scenarios. You're blaming your mother for calling you ugly and pointing out your flaws so many times now you dont want to believe you will ever receive love? Well, I've been in one too. And i know how hard it is to accept and stop blaming them for the way you are. You know what im most terrified of? Turning out like my mother. But, some books, some things, some friends, some one, some thing is there out here. Some thing that will make sure you're not the way they are. Some thing that will support you, so, you don't need to always open your heart out to people, or, always blame your parents, because someday, you'll be better than them. And you will be happy, baby.
