Work Text:
Wilkie Twycross had devoted his life to teaching magical students the three 'D's of apparition: Destination, Determination and Deliberation.
It had come to his attention that all his hard work of three working days a year hadn't gained him much notoriety in the important circles, i.e. the Harry Potter fandom. He appeared only in 15 works on the renouned website archiveofourown.org. He appeared more times than that in the Harry Potter books. 16 times to be precise.
No, he wasn't famous among the fans, and if he wanted to be he'd have to work on the three 'O's of Obscurity: Odiousness, Objectification, and Optimism.
He'd have to do some work himself, for once. He'd have to write himself into a fic. For the first O, he'd have to make himself the villain of the story: an odious character who would victimize the fandom woobie, which in 2024 was probably still Regulus Black. For the second O, he'd have to make himself hot (that was just pure fact, in his opinion), objectify himself. That would help fandom latch on to his character. And last... A lot of optimism and hope that his fic took off.
His fic boiled down to the following new fanon PSA: Wilkie Twycross was a sexy evil apparition professor and all other characters in the Harry Potter world wanted to bang him! Masses, start writing.
