Minerva Mcgongall pulled out her notebook and turned to the page that listed the names and details of that years Gryffindor Quidditch team. Her heart swelling with pride she jotted down the name “Harry Potter” next to the position “Seeker” before closing the book and opening a second drawer. She took out a small, wooden box and rummaged in it for a few seconds before withdrawing a worn out envelope, inside of which was a short letter and a photograph.
“Dearest Minnie,
Hope you’re doing well! I’m the same of course, driving Lily up the wall as usual, she sends you her love by the way!
Now I know I told you that you’ll never find a chaser as good as me ever again, but it just goes to show that even the brilliant are sometimes mistaken. I’ve found you (made you!) a replacement who will one day outshine his old man by leagues! Enclosed is a photograph of your new Quidditch prodigy so that you may assess his skills for yourself. We have him chasing the cat for practice. He’ll be unbeatable by the time he starts at Hogwarts! The youngest Quidditch player in a century!
I guarantee it, Minnie. And you know I’m never wrong, though you’ll never admit it!
Missing you and Hogwarts terribly,
Lots of love,
James
P.S. Sirius says his marriage proposal still stands.”
Wiping away a single tear that ran down her cheek and chuckling to herself, she smiled down at the photograph of a small, gleeful, black haired boy zooming along on a toy broom, a pair of legs chasing after him and a young woman laughing hysterically in a corner.
dumb iron dad/high school peter headcanons based on my life as a teenager
this boy does not hydrate
like, okay, if he’s thirsty he’ll drink but he ain’t bringing a water bottle with him anywhere
he sleeps fine most of the time but like also he doesn’t function AT ALL IN THE MORNING
“do not fucking talk to me until ive brushed my teeth”
he wears the same like six outfits but in different orders
“does this red plaid shirt match these spotted socks? absolutely not but it’s 5:45 in the morning”
he loves telling people about his life?? like not to an annoying extent but like DO YOU WANT TO KNOW ABOUT MY TOP TEN FAVORITE MOVIES BECAUSE I WILL TELL YOU!!!!
back to the lack of hydration, a lot of the time when he stands he gets dizzy and sees The Black Spots
but he’s so used to it that he doesn’t think twice
once it happened at the lab and tony was so fucking ready to rush him to the medbay
but peter’s just like “nah it’ll pass gimme a sec” while he stands there swaying
tony: that’s,,,thats so stupid please drink so water
peter: im not thirsty
tony: YOU ALMOST BLACKED OUT—
peter: …and?
tony: wjdjwixnwkdnwn please be normal
peter whispers the ends of conversations he has in his head out loud sometimes like no i don’t want the hot dog!!
tony: PLEASE PETER IM BEGGING YOU
sometimes peter will just start t-posing for absolutely no reason
“im asserting my dominance mr stark”
“there is NO ONE here what the fuck”
peter sings all that damn time
and like he’s good but he will sing bad on purpose because he doesn’t want to seem like he’s trying too hard
tony: you can play your music while we work
peter: neat *plays his spotify playlist titled songs white people think slaps*
peter, loudly and horribly: TAKE ME HOOOOOOOME TO THE PLAAAAAACE I BELOOOOOONG WEST VIRGINIAAAAAAA MOUNTAIN MAMAAAAAAAA TAKE ME HOOOOOME COUNTRY ROOOOOADS
tony: i literally am going to throw myself into the ocean
peter. loves. john hughes. movies.
tony once puts on sixteen candles for movie night and peter recites it WORD for WORD
tony and peter have accidental Family Chats
like peter has a rough school day and sudden he’s crying in the backseat of tony’s car and holding a frosty while tony tells him about the time rhodey didn’t talk to him for a week because he accidentally lit his computer on fire
peter MUST sleep to music or he can’t sleep at all and when tony asks why peter says it’s because his mom used to sing to him before bed and now she can’t
tony, softy but with feeling: fuck
peter doesn’t use grammar in his texts?? no apostrophes or capital letters and weirds the heck outta tony
tony accidentally gets peter into classic rock so now peter wears iron maiden tshirts and hums you shook me all night long under his breath
peter is a badass creative writer
like when he gets bored at the lab he’ll write himself short stories
one time he left his notebook there and tony reads it and loses his MIND
in conclusion peter is a struggling gen z kid and tony can’t keep up
no offence but the hissing thing vampires do when they get angry is so funny…….. like can you imagine getting into an argument with someone and they hiss at you……… bitch what the f uc k
My friend was shuffling a new tarot deck and she said excitedly “I cant wait to see what sort of bond I have with this deck!” And then the first card she pulled was the fool
