A large part of the reason families were bigger in the past was because marital rape was not considered rape and birth control/abortion methods were ineffective, dangerous and/or illegal. We can dance around this and act like our great great great grandmothers just loveddddd being mamas so much that they decided out of their own free will to have 11 children. We can pretend that they DECIDED to have big families because it was a financially advantageous decision so they could have more labor around the farm. But a lot of children in the past were fundamentally unwanted and not conceived out of love, children were not a choice women got to make. We need to admit that and stop pretending historical women were inherently more maternal because they were impregnated at the age of 15 and kept having babies until they were 40. That did not make them loving mothers, it did not make them ‘the divine feminine’ and it sure did not make them happy.
Because when everyone in the Drarry Pit gets put into Azkaban, you mine the "Prisoner Draco Malfoy" tag for gold. Obviously. ⛏️🖤⛏️

journalist!draco was about to interview spiderman. this was his opportunity to be ascended at his job.
he was excited.

I NEED A HAPPY ENDING FIC LIKE THIS 😭😭😭😭 i’ve couldn’t get this idea off my head
You’re telling me that in a series with the main lesson being the power of love, Harry saving the day with Draco’s wand is supposed to mean nothing????
The tik tokification of 'bad words' like sex/seggs suicide/unalive pedohile/PDFile grape/rape only originally censored because of moderation rules but now in colloquial (online) speech is going to send me to an early grave
Young Sirius.
“I feel like I’ve forgotten something,” Ron says, patting his waistcoat down distractedly.
“It better not be the bloody ring,” Harry grits out, teeth clenched with anxiety, nerves coursing through him like electric currents as he bounces on the balls of his feet.
“Nah, mate,” Ron grins. “Don’t you fret.”
Harry gives a choked laugh. “Me? Never been calmer.”
“Picture of serenity,” Ron agrees.
“Exactly.” Harry takes some deep breaths, shaking out his hands. “Oh god. Why isn’t he here yet? I just want this to be done.”
“Wow. Romantic.”
“It is romantic,” Harry insists. “I want us to be married now. Or fucking yesterday.”
“Language!” Hermione whispers from the front row behind them, but she’s beaming and already crying a little, hands over Hugo’s little ears. Harry grins back, feeling so painfully excited. He’s a little worried he’s going to throw up from it. The thought of it makes him laugh, imagining Draco’s face if Harry was sick all over his custom-made white robes, spun from fucking unicorn hair or mermaid silk or whatever. God.
And then a hush falls over the crowd, and there he is, looking so fucking beautiful as he strides down the aisle, robes billowing behind him, sun gleaming in his hair, eyes fixed firmly on Harry. Jesus fuck. Harry's crying now too. He can't look away. Draco is a vision, glowing, his haughty, pointy, beloved face softened with something that looks like awe, disbelief. Harry can relate.
"Hey," he chokes out, when Draco reaches him.
"Hello," Draco murmurs, his mouth pulling into a grin. "My god, Harry, control yourself."
"I can't," Harry sobs. "Ugh. Fuck. I love you."
"We're not at that part yet," Draco reminds him, gripping his hands tight, radiant.
Ron puts a hand on Harry's shoulder, passing him a handkerchief. "Ready?"
"Yeah," Harry beams, wiping his eyes and looking back to Draco. "Are you?"
And Draco, grey eyes bright, nods.
