To celebrate the release of the Fantastic Beast movie- which lived up to it's name - fantastic - by the way, I decided to release a few of my Harry Potter fanfics I haven't shared with you guys yet. Enjoy and remember feedback is always welcome!
You've always hated this house, this red&gold house.
They say the red tastes like velvet and courage
And the gold looks like purity and honor.
But to you the gold looks more like copper shackles digging into your flesh
And the red tastes like crimson blood.
Yet...yet you still ask
{Why do you ask stupid boy? That proves that you care and that's the last thing you'd ever be accused of.}
And his mouth speaks reassurances but you can't see
{Walking blindly, more lost under their parenting than you ever will be on your own. Perhaps it's safer for everyone on if you're lost.}
You can't see past the lighting bolt on his forehead
-Golden Trio, Golden Boy, Golden gallons, goldgoldgold-
{It's astonishing that with all this gold around you you're still silver- second place. Guess winning isn't hereditary after all.}
And the red flash behind him
-red hair, red lips, redhot anger, redredred-
{With all this red how did no one never notice how horribly it clashes with your skin? Guess you'll never make family picture day.}
And it all bleeds together into
Redandgold gryffindor and disappointment.
Then…
Then you see Him
And you understand.
His eyes are
Silver
-like moonlight and keys-
And they meet yours
-emerald like grassfields and snakes-
And the Hat screams
Slytherin
Redandgold feels like fury and disgust
but …
But it's easily overtaken by
Emeraldandsilver acceptance
And silver eyes meet emerald
And pale hand shakes pale had
And never lets go.
Scorpius, Albus decides, tastes like freedom.
{And the world screamed.}
