βIβmβ¦β Harry could hardly speak. βIβm scared, Sirius.β
βI know, Harry, but Iβm here. Youβre safe with me.β
Harry sagged against the embrace. And as he let Sirius hold him and promise him that no one could harm him now, a childish part of Harry could almost believe that as long as he was in Siriusβs arms, Voldemort could never find him and hurt him again.

He can finally hug Harry now π₯° Just finished this painting in time. I am completely exhausted now, I have been painting this whole week.
So this is the full version of the Sirius portrait recently. No one guessed the scene correctly, but thatβs fine, I already expected that. I was just so curious about your thoughts on his expression :)
Hi, it's me again, the person who wrote that viral post about fanfiction plagiarism! Today I'm here to warn you about abuse perpetrated by bots who have stolen AO3 usernames.
There's currently an epidemic of bots going around leaving (apparently random) horrible, hateful comments on people's fics. This isn't the first time bots have invaded AO3, but the big problem with this wave is that they're using real AO3 usernames to do it.
I learned about this when another writer contacted me after receiving the following comment on their story:
Now, while that is my username, I DEFINITELY did not leave this comment (and anyone who would leave something like that on a fic should be slapped! What an awful thing to post). This fic is in a completely unrelated fandom that I have never participated in, nor has that author participated in any of my fandoms, so the probability of it being some intentional fandom drama thing to make me look bad is also low.
The writer whose fic the comment was left on enlisted the aid of some friends and tracked down other guest comments with unrelated usernames attached, which is pretty strong evidence that they are being left by bots at random.
The TL;DR: If you receive a cruel comment from a (Guest) with an actual AO3 username attached, it's most likely from a bot. Please do not lash out at or dogpile the AO3 user who owns that name, and who in all likelihood has no idea that their name has been hijacked for evil.
If finding this kind of comment on a fic, even left by a bot, is likely to upset you, I would recommend changing your comment settings so that only users who are logged in can leave comments. To do this, edit your story settings, and under "Privacy," select the radio button that says "Only registered users can comment," as shown below.
Please spread the word to other AO3 users! And if you see mean guest comments on other fics, maybe let the author know that it's probably from a bot and not a real person who thinks their writing is bad.

#RemusLupin
Remus Lupin, a quiet visual arts student, had always preferred solitude and sketchbooks over social gatherings.
However, during an end of semester performance showcase, he found himself in a darkened theater, his eyes glued to the stage as Sirius Black, the star of the performing arts program, took center stage, commanding attention with effortless grace and raw, genuine expressions.
The performance left Remus breathless as he realized that art could live and breathe, just as Sirius did on stage.
Remus had always appreciated beauty in art, but this moment made him see it in a whole new way

I'd rather take my whiskey neat (also I am reading tcopt)
