somewhere, there is an apprentice who, instead of using a proper fake-Latin incantation, decided to command wind with “yeet” and “yoink.”
Harry couldn’t be prouder.
i bet crossing spears with someone to block entry into a location feels so fucking good
Morgan: Dresden, somewhere out there, there is a tree tirelessly producing oxygen so you can breathe.
Morgan: And I think you owe it an apology.
3 ships: Morgan/Justin DuMorne (DF. No I am not accepting questions), Cullen/Carver Hawke (Dragon Age 2 or Inquisition), Cullen/Samson (Dragon Age Inquisition moreso than 2)
First ship ever: If memory serves it was probably boba fett/han solo, I think the only thing I used to be invested enough in to have any ships for was probably Star wars. I’ve branched out.
last song: “My Way” Frank Sinatra
last movie: I think it was Spirited that new Ryan Reynolds flick
currently reading: The Shining, Stephen King
currently watching: LOTR again
currently consuming: mint tea :)
tag: @arriaryu
Thanks for the tag @narastories
3 ships: Thomas Raith/Justine (Dresden Files), Geese Howard/Billy Kane (Fatal Fury), Count Dracula/Jonathan Harker (Dracula)
first ever ship: so I used to be really into Transformers, the Bayverse movies were my introduction but I didn’t get into fandom shipping until I saw the TFP version. My reaction to the Optimus Prime/Megatron interactions was basically “oh, they’re exes.” Although I didn’t actually start writing fics until a couple years ago when I got into the Dresden Files.
last song: ‘Hypnotic’ by Zella Day
last movie: I watched a volcano documentary on netflix
currently reading: just started rereading Dead Beat for a fic
currently watching: a playlist of Amanda the Jedi movie reviews
currently consuming: nothing

^ Things Morgan keeps insisting when all the not super weirdly tall people around him call him super weirdly tall
This is either Anastasia and Morgan back when he was an apprentice, or Morgan and one of the young wardens.
“Can you hit him with your knife?”
“I believe the technical term is stab.”
Hang mistletoe but instead of kissing you have to FIGHT whoever else is under it
Morgan: I was just like you when I was a kid. I was this badass wizard with these big plans to change the world.
Harry: Yeah? What happened?
Morgan: Oh, didn’t you hear? I changed the world.
Harry to Butters: Listen, you just saved me from having “Disemboweled by ancient sailor with a snake fetish.” carved on my tombstone, so let me give you some free advice. There are an astounding amount of powerful people in this world. And a lot of them are flat-out crazy. So…. Trust me….. You will always be in over your head. Always.
*Morgan jumps by using geomancy to crush dozens of zombies under a mountain of earth*
Harry: Unless you’re Morgan.
Butters: Nice sword.
