“…it feels terrible to have to depend on a system that you know is illegitimate to adjudicate your “worth.” It really does.

slytherins: *have no role models. i mean no role models. regulus black is seen as a death eater, snape is an abusive bastard, draco isn't given redemption, andromeda is hardly mentioned. no role models*

slytherin first years: *belittled when sorted. they're eleven years old*
slytherins: *always suspected, undermined, and pitted against the rest of the school*
slytherins: *booed at every Quidditch match*

slytherins: *expected to fight in the battle anyways and treated like fucking terrorists when they choose not to for fear that they'll be fighting their parents, friends, and family*
slytherins: *automatically taken to mean death eater*
slytherins: *always pitted against the rest of the school and portrayed as terrible people even though they face discrimination and harassment*

I am Silver Tongue, I am an artist. I have many characters and you can check out my art in the art tag. I occasionally practice witchcraft though I don't do anything too complicated. I am girl 2 and don't know what else to put here.
