Out of the mouth of babes...

"...Penelope could use our support right now and here you are, being a total… a total… a total bitch!” She was startled by her own bad language, but she was truly furious.

Adrienne doesn't know whether to laugh or cry at Barnaby Wye offering himself up as tribute were he otherwise able to in Kill Some Stubborn Myths

Men these days. “If I were –” of any use, I would rectify that for you myself, he had begun saying without thinking... but that was unhelpful on many levels, so he sufficed to throw her a look of utter, lingering sympathy.

“Perhaps you ought to obtain a copy of The Choise of Valentines* for your husband,” he suggested (unaware that said poem had fallen far out of publication by this point; he well remembered the original being passed around his friendship circles). “Nashe’s Dildo, you know. ‘Tis all too common a tale, but ‘tis only fair that you should seek your gratification one way or another.”

Stalking Ozy to see his publicly known stance on womens suffrage and came across these gems in this thread.

"If anyone is feeling particularly bold tonight they might go ask my wife if she feels she achieved a state of special enlightenment the day she married me."

After all, he and Sina had worked hard on their reputation as the least companionable couple in magical Britain; he might as well make good use of it.

She would survive this, just as she’d survived everything else; there was just a need to be dramatic about it first.

Well Greer Owens is great fun already. xD

It would be easy to assume that Evangeline came to the Lady Morgana only to pick fights. That wasn't true at all. They also had very good biscuits.

PSA that Evangeline Rowle is still an absolute icon <3

Chessie adored Minnie, but sometimes, she thought, she could be the least self aware person she’d ever met and it could be rather exasperating.

The mention of the Headmaster's own nuptials was also not news to Mason, but the fact of the matter remained; as far as he knew, and he had been in school with Mrs. Black at the time, as they were in the same year, there had been no mentions of them being seen together prior to her departure from the school. "I don't suggest you throw that in Black's face when you try to argue this with him," Mason warned.

Okay but imagining this conversation brought so much joy to me <3 hahahahahaha.

Set by Lady!

She had never been close to her brother (and there certainly hadn't ever been opportunity to after he'd come home from the trail) but she had observed the Fisks for nearly all her life. Those were siblings who couldn't be without one another - Penny now had the feeling that it was the same for the Bixby's.

I love this sentiment from Penelope Fawcett in Paper Broomsticks <3

ngl, I had an inappropriate, out of context giggle at this Cassius Lestrange snippet from this post.

He had a hard time telling when he was having fun, when he wasn't on a broomstick.

In truth, Astoria was a bit bored just talking to her friends and watching them dance with various suitors while she stayed on the sidelines in the name of making sure the attention remained on Melody. Was this what it felt like to be ugly?

It wasn't fair of her to miss him this much, not when she was the one to leave.

Really love this sentiment from Rosalie Hunniford

but that was another selfish want. And Rosie had used every ounce of her allotted selfishness in leaving him.
