You are still yourself in everything except your appearance. You’ve still got your own mind and your own brain and your own voice, and thank goodness for that.
Roald Dahl, The Witches (via the-book-diaries)
I want to know you whether you’re afraid of sharks or spiders death or love.
I want to know if it’s grammatical errors that drive you crazy or the people correcting them, if you’re more comfortable shaking sand out of your hair or snow, if you prefer coffee or tea, bars or board game nights.
I want to know which of your friends you’ve cried in front of, if you’ve ever laughed chocolate milk out of your nose, or kissed someone you didn’t love.
I want to know you the you beneath the layer of small talk always kept shined and smudgeless
I’m just hoping one day you’ll invite me in.

HI I just read the first chapter of it happened one night and raced over here. REGULUS WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT? (very excited to read more)
Yes, what the fuck Reg?? What cryptic shit was that???
You'll find out a little more in the next couple chapters. I'm so pleased that you liked it! It's most definitely just my marauders brain rot being expelled from my head so I wasn't entirely sure many people would enjoy it. I hope you keep coming back!
xx,

I don’t understand it any more than you do, but one thing I’ve learned is that you don’t have to understand things for them to be.
Madeline L’Engle, A Wrinkle in Time (via the-book-diaries)
We need people in our lives with whom we can be as open as possible. To have real conversations with people may seem like such a simple, obvious suggestion, but it involves courage and risk.
