I commissioned @rhewart to do an art piece for my courting season fanfiction Dancing With Our Hands Tied. She made this gorgeous piece <3

Sebastian Sallow Headcanons

Starts calling you “darling” as a joke, he likes seeing you blush. Only used to tease you.

Cute nicknames over pet names.

Late night library study sessions where he plays footsies with you to get you to laugh too loudly so that it gets the two of you kicked out.

Visibly brightens when he sees you around the castle or in classes.

Will jog through the halls to catch up with you if he catches a glimpse of you.

He’ll reach over your head and pluck your textbooks out of your arms. Carrying them for you without ever acknowledging it.

Definitely an act first think later kinda guy in basically every situation.

Becomes noticeably more touchy when he feels jealous or insecure. His go to “back off” move is to sling his arm over your shoulders and try to make it look casual while he stares daggers at whoever had the gall to bother you.

Fiddles with his wand, taps it constantly against the palm of his hand or tables. It drives you crazy.

After dueling or fighting goblins he’ll tuck stray hairs behind your ear and kiss your forehead. He does that thing where he cups the back of your head with his hand and pulls you closer to him.

I write a story called Dancing With Our Hands Tied on Ao3. It's been quite the journey with coming back to writing after many (many) years. I recently wrote one of my favorite passages where MC (Eleanor) kind of just loses it on Ominis regarding Sebastian. I really just wanted to share it since I'm so proud and excited how far I've come!

“Ominis, I am no longer a naive child!” I lashed out. “I know I was stupid in 5th year. I know Sebastian manipulated me. I haven’t forgotten it! I can’t forget how it felt to realize that he was using me…” I paused, voice laced in pain. “But despite the insanity that happened, I also believe that he sincerely cared about me. I will always believe there is good in him. I truly think he is being genuine with me right now. And all we are seeking from one another is the friendship that we had lost. That is it.”

“Why then were you so hurt at the news? Why be distressed if he has not been trying to lure you back to him?” asked Ominis.

“Because I missed him!” I cried out. “I had loved him so much and it killed me when I saw what he had turned into. My brilliant and charming friend was suddenly someone capable of murder! I still dream about that day. But yet for all that, I still miss who he was. And suddenly its like that version of him is back again. I don’t sense that lingering anger he used to carry. It’s like he is back to being that same boy I had loved once upon a time...”

reblogging cause I love this addition! and I can totally picture it.

MC: Is that... necessary? Sebastian: *trying to run away but he can't because he's on a kid-leash* Ominis: Yes.

The accuracy.... oof
