THIS STORY HAS MATURE THEMES. My heart goes out to all of the ladies who are a part of the 97%. You are strong, you are beautiful, and you are not alone.

When someone tries to hurt the reader, Neville steps in and protects her like the true Gryffindor he is. 

Neville was your best friend in the whole world.

In third year you had asked Professor Sprout to use her greenhouse to cultivate a plant for your own needs. You had a knack for potions and although you couldn’t stand Snape’s constant droning in class, your passion for the subject was unmatched compared to any other of your studies. 

You had been trying to create a potion that would allow your pet cat, Socks, to levitate. Ever since you first picked her out in Diagon Alley during your first year she had longingly stared out the window in your dorm admiring the owls flying outside. 

Obtaining the magical ingredients was no trouble, Snape often let you come and take what you needed because you were his top student. However, to make it cat safe you needed muggle cat-nip, something Snape definitely did not have on hand. 

That’s what led you to the greenhouse on a cold and rainy April morning with your small pot and bag of seeds in hand. You didn’t expect anyone else to occupy the small plant house at 7:00 am on a Tuesday so you didn’t bother to knock. You let yourself in and were startled to see another student with his back towards you tending to some plant. 

“Oh, hi!” you squeaked out. Before you could react, the poor boy dropped the empty pot he was holding creating a large crash and shattering the clay everywhere. “Oh I-I-I am so-so sorry. I-I didn’t know anyone w-was here,” he said between frantic breaths as he was focused on trying to pick up the pieces. “Don’t apologize, I should have knocked. Let me help you.” you kindly offered. You bent down onto your knees to his level to help pick up the broken pieces. “Here,” you said handing him a rather large piece that was still intact. Neville looked up to grab the piece from your hand. He was so caught up by his own clumsiness that he didn’t get a proper look at you. He was taken back by your beauty, the way your hair perfectly framed your face, the subtle red tint to your nose and cheeks from the cold, and the way your eyes sparkled in the early morning light. Neville could barely get a sentence out when your hands met exchanging the Terra Cotta. “Uh..thanks,” he said quickly looking back down at the ground.

You stood up and dusted off the front of your skirt. “I’m y/n by the way. Sorry again for startling you,” “Don’t worry about it. Oh um I-I uh I’m Neville.” “It’s nice to meet you, Neville, Sprout is letting me use the greenhouse to grow a plant of mine for a potion. So it looks like we will be seeing more of each other,” you happily stated.

From that moment on you and Neville became the best of friends. Though if you were being completely honest, you longed for more. You had gone out with a couple of guys on small dates over the years and Neville even took Ginny to the Yule Ball but you never really clicked with someone like you did with Neville.

Now you were in your 5th year starting to think about life after Hogwarts. Laying with your head in Neville’s lap under a big tree near the black lake you two discussed your futures and what you think you would do after graduation. “Hey Nev?” you asked interrupting the comfortable silence between the two of you. “Yes y/n?” he responded setting down the book he had been reading. “What do you want to do after we’re done with school?” you asked him while staring up at his face from down below. “I dunno, maybe teaching. I’ve pretty much taught you everything you know about Herbology,” he responded with a chuckle. “Hey!” you gave him a playful smack “though I do suppose I wouldn’t have passed my last exam without you basically teaching me the last chapter.” 

“What about you?” the brown-haired boy asked while playing with the ends of your hair. “I think I want to continue my study of potions. I mean imagine developing a potion to finally reverse horrible diseases and terrible curses,” you replied subtly referencing what happened to his parents.

You were the only person Neville had told the story of his parents to. Ever since then you always made an effort to remind him of how proud his parents would be of him. He often doubted his abilities but you how brave and capable he was. You would trust him with your life.

“If anyone can brew those potions it’ll be you,” he said in a quieter tone. “Aww thanks, Nev, I know exactly who I’ll be getting my ingredients from,” you said with a smile. Nightfall was approaching so the two of you made your way back to the castle for dinner. The two of you were an unconventional duo to everyone else but to you, you were best friends and wouldn’t want it any other way. 

Later that night you closed your eyes to fall asleep but your mind began to drift. You began to think about Neville which isn’t uncommon seeing that you spend most of your time together but you were thinking about him in a different way. 

You’d be lying if you said you hadn’t thought of him like this before but what’s even worse is that part of you wishes it was this way. You had noticed a bit of...tension between the two of you on occasion. Like the time you couldn’t reach the top shelf in the greenhouse so Neville came up directly behind you to get the watering can for you. Or when you grabbed Neville from the library to go and watch Fred and George’s newest prank unfold and you held his hand the whole way there. You so wished that something more could blossom between you two but the last thing you wanted to do was jeopardize your friendship. I mean having Neville as a friend is better than not having him at all. You knew you could spend hours thinking about this so you just decided to roll over and try to get some shut-eye.

A few days later you were supposed to meet Neville in your guy’s usual spot after lunch, in the greenhouse, but he didn’t show. You figured he probably forgot (something he does quite often but you secretly think is absolutely adorable) so you left to go and find him. After searching for a bit you went to check for him in his dorm. Before you knocked you could hear faint sniffling from the other side of the door. You gently knocked and called out “Neville? Is that you? Can I come in?” After a few seconds of quiet the door slowly opened to a teary Neville on the other side. You instantly dropped your bag and gave him the biggest bear hug you could. You broke the hug and asked “Neville what’s wrong?  What happened?” “y/n why am I a Gryffindor? I’m so pathetic I can’t even stand up for myself,” he said through his sniffles. “Neville you are far from pathetic. You are the bravest, and most kindhearted, and loyal person I know. That’s why you’re a Gryffindor. Your parents would be so proud of you. I’m so proud of you.” you assured. It turns out that a few Slytherins sabotaged Neville’s potion in Snape’s class so it would explode everywhere. When Neville went to confront them he froze which caused everyone to laugh at him. You continued to hug him until he calmed down but you wished there was some way you could get Neville to believe in himself as you believe in him.

About a week later you found yourself sitting in the courtyard reading your transfiguration textbook for your test tomorrow. You were sitting on a small bench by yourself in a relatively secluded area of the outdoor space. You saw a figure approaching and looked up to see none other than McLaggen, someone who you often complained to Neville about on a regular basis. “So sweetheart, there’s a trip to Hogsmeade coming up and you look like you could use a date,” he said with a sickening smirk. “Bugger of Cormac,” you said as you began to collect your things. “Aww that’s no way to talk to me darling,” he said inching closer to you “you know I don’t like taking no for an answer.” Cormac McLaggen was just about the most disgusting guy at Hogwarts. He had asked out pretty much every girl in the school including yourself on multiple occasions. The answer was always a hard no but he couldn’t seem to get that through his thick skull. “I said I’m not interested now I have to get to class. Goodbye.” you hastily replied while trying to get as far away from the douchebag as you could. Before you could get very far he grabbed you and pinned you up against the stone hedge directly behind you. “What the fuck” you screamed as he began ripping open your uniform blouse and putting his hands on your chest and neck. You fought back as hard as you could but he was just too strong. 

What you didn’t see was Neville watching you from afar. He had been sitting with Dean and Seamus when he saw McLaggen make his way over to you. He knew that you would never stoop to that level but it did spark a kind of jealousy in him seeing another boy talk to you that way. When he saw him push you against the wall Neville reacted before he could think and sprinted over to you as fast as he could. 

“What the hell do you think you’re doing Cormac?” Neville yelled as he pulled the asshole off of his best friend. “Just showing her what a real Gryffindor is like since she seems to spend all her time with you, a pathetic excuse of a wizard,” said Cormac as he began to get closer to Neville who was standing directly in front of you as a shield. “Don’t you ever come near her again? You hear me?” Neville threatened without any hesitancy or fear in his voice. “Yeah right,” McLaggen scoffed as he advanced on Neville. However, before he could do any more damaged Neville punched him straight in the face causing Cormac to fall to the ground. 

By this time a small crowd was beginning to form. McGonagall broke through the mess of students “What in the world  is going on here?” She looked at the scene in front of her and quickly put together the pieces. “I see, students get to class, I’ll be taking Mr. McLaggen to Dumbledore. We do not tolerate this kind of behavior. Longbottom, I trust that you will make sure Miss y/l/n is alright. Please take her to Madam Pomfrey if she needs anything. Very well.” and she grabbed McLaggen by the arm and made her way back to the castle. 

The crowd had dispersed leaving just you and Neville. Neville realized that he hadn’t even checked in on you yet because he was so disoriented from everything that just happened. He quickly spun around to face you. Your mascara was completely smeared, you were sobbing, and your blouse was ripped open leaving your bra and chest exposed. “Can I- can I touch you?” Neville softly asked not wanting to make you uncomfortable in any way. Instead of using your words you just collapsed into Neville letting his arms wrap around you in an effort to keep all the pain and ugly things as far away from you as he could.

You don’t know how long you two stayed like that but Neville pulled away eventually and used his thumb to wipe off some of your smeared black eye makeup and tears. “Here,” he said while pulling off his burgundy Gryffindor sweater and putting it over your head. He saw that you were still exposed and didn’t want anyone seeing you like that. “Do you want to go to Madam Pomfrey?” he softly asked while rubbing soothing circles on the back of your hand. You shook your head no “can we just go sit by the lake. I don’t want to go back and deal with everyone yet.” “Of course,” he replied. 

Neville guided you over to the lake and you two rested under your favorite tree. There were no words exchanged between the two of you. Just comfortable silence and a telepathic-like connection that told you that everything was going to be alright. Neville rubbed soothing circles on your back as you lay your head on his lap. You don’t know how long you two stayed there but you soon realized that you must have fallen asleep because it was nearly dusk and you were in Neville’s arms walking back to the castle. 

He carried you back to your common room and up to your dorm. Neville layed you down on your bed and tucked you into the covers. He made his way to the door but stopped when he heard you call out his name. “Hey, Nev? Could you maybe stay? I just don’t want to be alone right now.” “Oh, uh sure,” he said making his way back to you. He didn’t want to make you feel bad for seeming hesitant because honestly, he would love nothing more than to stay with you. However, the last thing he would want to do is to make you uncomfortable or seem like he was taking advantage of you in your time of distress. Plus with his massive crush on you, he gets incredibly nervous any time something remotely intimate or romantic occurs between you two. But he swallowed his nerves and kicked off his shoes to be there for you when you need him most. He would do anything for you. He crawled under the covers and kept a substantial amount of space between you two though honestly, the school-issued dorm beds weren’t that big. 

You didn’t say a word but gently turned over so you were facing away from Neville. You scooted closer to him and in a moment of bravery grabbed his hand from the opposite side of the bed and pulled it over you so you two were cuddling. You let out a sigh of relief partly from Neville not pulling away and partly from finally finding some peace from the stress of the day. 

“Neville?” you called out. “Yes y/n,” he called back. “Thank you for keeping me safe.” and soon after those few words left your mouth in the still silence of the room, you were asleep.

Neville let out a breath he didn’t know he was holding and bravely planted a kiss on the top of your head. Maybe he really was a Gryffindor after all.

Hey you said you don’t agree

as it is

For DE!McGonagall but you can make it work with some changes?

The post anon is referencing.

You take my words much too seriously. I really meant "as it is" as filler, though I suppose there is something to be said.

In the most tautological statement I can make: If I believed McGonagall was a Death Eater then I'd believe McGonagall was a Death Eater.

Given the source material we have, I don't.

But let's get into it.

Why Don't I Think McGonagall's a Death Eater?

The livejournal OP makes very valid arguments, cites canon very well, and makes a very convincing argument for why McGonagall is a Death Eater (and correctly predicts that Snape, in fact, was a double agent for Dumbledore).

However, there are other explanations for the arguments they cite.

Namely, the wizarding world is culturally full of assholes and the society itself, even characters meant to be 'good', is prejudiced against muggleborns and muggles.

That, and the Order itself is completely incompetent, not just McGonagall.

The Wizarding World is Not Supportive of Muggleborns or Muggles

The Wizarding World seems to be divided into three camps. Those who blow up muggleborns, those who quietly tolerate them, and then those who say they support them but wouldn't invite them over for dinner.

We see hints of rampant unemployment in the muggleborn population. We see near universal derision of muggles and muggleborns in general.

Most of the good characters, Harry's friends and associates, fall into this third category.

We have the Weasleys.

Arthur treats muggles much like white people treat black culture, he appropriates the aspects he finds neat and completely fails to understand muggles in the slightest. Molly turns on Hermione and accuses her of being a scarlet woman in a manner that feels very much like, if Hermione were not an uppity muggleborn, she would not be derided in such a manner.

Ron makes quite a few statements throughout the series about Harry's muggle relatives and that they're "the wrong sort of muggle" or just that they're being muggle in general makes them lesser.

Harry picks up on this and starts saying similar things himself. In trying to go to Hogsmeade he notes to McGonagall that his relatives are muggles, they just don't get it, you know?

My point being, Minerva says derisive things about muggles throughout the series. When Dumbledore leaves Harry on the Dursley's doorstep she's appalled, as she views them as "the worst kind of muggle" and heavily implies that she thinks any muggle is not suited to raising Harry Potter.

The OP argues that this is an odd thing for one of the "good" characters to say.

I argue that all the "good" characters say as much, at least, the ones who grew up or assimilated into the wizarding world culture. Minerva McGonagall is far from alone in her derision of muggles.

McGonagall Sure Does a Whole Lot of Nothing

OP argues that, for a character that's a part of the Order, McGonagall takes damningly little action throughout the series.

Snape is always the one acting on some order of Dumbledore. He interacts with Quirrell and saves Harry's life in first year, he gives Harry the occlumency lessons, and later he assists Dumbledore's suicide, aids Draco in infiltrating the castle, and does a whole bunch of behind the scenes work on Dumbledore's orders.

What the hell does McGonagall do?

She teaches her classes, is very upset about Umbridge for a while, and then in the Deathly Hallows enables the children's rebellion.

One explanation for this is that McGonagall is suspiciously incompetent. She is actively sabotaging Order operations while also maintaining her cover. McGonagall is a Death Eater spy.

However, once again, there are other explanations.

First, Dumbledore trusts no one. The reason Snape is the only one to do anything is because Snape is bound by oath and crippling guilt to Harry Potter (and thus Dumbledore himself).

If Dumbledore lets McGonagall peek behind the curtain, do any real task, then he loses control. McGonagall will likely be appalled at Harry Potter's inevitable fate and his ongoing child abuse. She could very well defect and leave the Order.

Dumbledore, ultimately, cannot trust Minerva just as he can't trust any Order member besides Severus Snape.

Minerva does no work because Dumbledore doesn't give her any.

Second, the Order in general is incompetent. None of them do any task of any middling importance ever. The most important thing most of them get up to is trying and failing to babysit a teenage Harry Potter.

Remember, Dumbledore did not sanction the raid on the Department of Mysteries, that was Sirius yelling "CHAAAAAARGE!"

Once again, McGonagall doesn't stand out. If McGonagall's a spy because she doesn't do anything then the entire Order works for Voldemort, with the exception of Snape. (That would actually be a hilarious AU).

As for Minerva's hands off teaching, remember that despite all appearances the Wizarding World is not a modern western nation, they have a different view of education than we do.

Among the staff, Minerva is not alone in being hands off, Slughorn alone is the one to interact with the children and take an extra step to prepare them for their futures.

If Harry's getting into fights in the hallways, is not prepared for his future, then that's Harry's problem. McGonagall's there to teach.

And as it is she does play favorites with Harry, in that she purchases him a broom, allows him to play quidditch early, and is often very fond of him, Ron, and Hermione.

Remember Lupin, he was Harry's favorite professor, and despite Harry's perception Lupin was extremely hands off.

She Wears Green

This one would actually convince me were it not for the others. JKR loves her color coded characters. Green is the color of limes, close to lemons, which we all know means EVIL.

McGonagall wearing green could very well have been JKR's hint she's not a good character.

However, after all's said and done, JKR also likes her villains very noticeable and obvious. Voldemort is flatly evil, she doesn't want you admiring him in the least, every villain is similarly unabashedly bad.

It's obvious who you should root for and who you should hate.

McGonagall, were she a Death Eater, would be far too nuanced. This nuance, after all, was what ultimately signaled that Snape was secretly good.

Deathly Hallows

And there's the fact that by the end of the series, the cat's out of the bag. Voldemort was fully in control, and while McGonagall could have been stationed in Hogwarts as a spy, she did a whole lot of nothing there.

She enabled the children rebelling against Voldemort and she does not report Snape's suspicious actions to Tom. (And Snape does take actions which a competent Minerva would note as suspicious).

And given she helps lead the battle against Voldemort, leading the school children at that, I think it's safe to say that there's maintaining your cover and then there's not having a cover at all because you're not a Death Eater.

TL;DR

Minerva McGonagall is not a Death Eater

But You Didn't Answer the Question!

Right, what would convince me she was.

Well, Deathly Hallows would have had to sell me on it. We'd either need an undeniable reveal, a la Snape, or we'd need something bad to happen to Snape much earlier (as McGonagall rats him out to Tom).

Of course, this would lead very AU places as Harry would never discover he's a horcrux. Or else, McGonagall would find out via Snape, tell Tom, and then we get into that whole AU.

Point being, Deathly Hallows would have had to be much different.

Little Cockroach // Draco Malfoy

A/N: This is a request I received from anonymous. It’s quite short, but I think it’s a classic. I hope you enjoy it! (yes i most definitely used the ‘cockroach’ line)

Summary: Y/N and Draco have a history of hating each other, but one night in the astronomy tower puts an end to it.

Warning(s): Swearing, making out/kissing

Word Count: 900

Prompts(list): #3 #4 #8 #13 #18

Y/N wiped the tears from her face as she weaved through the crowd of people in the corridor. She had just come from her charms class with Professor Flitwick. He had given the class a surprise assessment to see how well they could perform Silencio, the silencing spell he had taught them a week prior.

She thought she’d be able to cast the spell, no problem. But when she went to perform it on the frog, it backfired and was launched onto her, rendering her mute. Professor Flitwick had assured her that the effects would wear off in an hour or two, but that did little to appease Y/N’s disappointment in herself. She was quite frankly embarrassed that she hadn’t been able to cast such a simple spell.

So now she ran through the halls, trying to find the nearest bathroom stall to hide in. Just as she caught sight of a bathroom entry, she was stopped in her tracks.

“Locomotor Mortis!” shouted a distinct haughty voice behind her.

Y/N felt her legs stick together, causing her to fall flat on her face. She scrambled to push herself up as she heard laughing grow louder. She didn’t have the patience for Malfoy’s antics today, but she was now in no position to walk away from him.

“Well, well, well. What have we here, boys?” Malfoy asked through his smirking lips. Y/N opened her mouth to say something but was quickly reminded of her predicament.

The Slytherins shook with laughter as Y/N desperately tried to get to her feet. They made no move to help her. Malfoy twirled his wand between his fingers while cocking his head to the side, his eyes boring into her. She felt her heart pound.

“Look at you; you’re pathetic, aren’t you?” Malfoy taunted. He raised his hand to his ear as if he was listening for something. “What’s wrong? Haven’t you got anything to say? Usually, you make snarky comments, but it seems as if you’re unable to today.” He paused for laughter, then crouched down and leaned in toward Y/N’s face. She felt his breath fan over her face. 

“Has a cat stolen your tongue, Y/L/N?” he whispered, “or are you finally learning your place?” Y/N felt a shudder run from her neck down to the tip of her spine.

Draco gave her a slight shove before straightening out his legs. “That’s alright. You’re very annoying anyway, only nice to look at, not to hear. Right, boys?”

Y/N glared up at him from her spot on the floor, positively seething. She was no longer sad. She wished so badly that she could’ve given him a piece of her mind. But alas, he and his minions had already begun to walk away.

“Oh, dear, Ms. Y/L/N, what’s happened to you?” questioned the sweet voice of Professor McGonagall. She took out her wand and uttered the counter curse under her breath, successfully unsticking her legs. 

Y/N smiled and bowed her head slightly to show her thanks, since she couldn’t do it with her voice, and then was racing down the hallway to get to class.

--------

Later on in the day, when classes had ended, and her voice had returned, Y/N decided to spend her time in the astronomy tower. She had become rather fond of the view it provided when the sun began to set. More and more of her time was spent sitting on the edge, her legs hanging off it. 

Suddenly, the book in her hands was torn from her. She whipped her head around angrily. It seemed as though someone had decided to crash her party.

“What do you want, Malfoy?” she asked through gritted teeth.

“Ah, she speaks!” he mused, while he walked his fingers up the railing, “was wondering when you’d be able to again.”

Y/N remained quiet, not wanting to give him the satisfaction.

“Haven’t you got anything else to say to me, darling?”

That set her off, “you filthy little cockroach, why must you always be such an arsehole to me? Can’t you bother anyone else for a change? I mean, really, the audacity you must have. How do you speak to your mother with that mouth? You are aware that you’re a downright git, aren’t you—”

Y/N was cut off by Draco as he smashed his lips onto hers. She immediately pushed him away, shocked he would do such a thing. He looked at her nervously, afraid of her next reaction. She considered yelling at him again, but truth be told, she'd secretly liked him for quite a while now. The kiss took her by surprise at first, but she knew deep down that they'd both been craving this for a long time.

“Fuck it,” she muttered before pressing her lips back onto his, finally breaking the romantic tension between them. 

Draco put his hand on the back of her neck, holding her steady while he savored the feeling of her mouth on his. He let out a happy sigh and kissed her harder as adrenaline rushed through his veins. She caressed his face, ran her hand up through his hair, and found purchase by grabbing onto his blonde locks.

Soon enough, the pair were forced to pull away. Their eyes flickered open, and they stared into the other’s eyes. “You’re breathtaking,” Draco whispered, his breath hot and heavy.

“Do you really think that?” Y/N asked, her voice uncertain.

“I do. Fuck, I need you.”

“I need you too,” Y/N assured him, “let’s see if the Room of Requirement is vacant,” she said with a smirk. Draco wiggled his eyebrows and grabbed her hand. And they bolted down the stairs and into the night, hearts beating wildly.

[slytherin-boys]

Severus likes to be carried, Lily carries him all the time cause he's rather skinny and weighs almost nothing

He likes to eat random things so it's best to keep a close eye on him

He goes to Professor Sprout's classroom every night to read the plants a bedtime story. (Sprout has to keep herself from crying all the time)

Sev likes to help Professor Slughorn clean up the classroom

Slughorn has had to keep Severus from consuming leftover/used up potion ingredients, and he's had to keep him from licking the insides of the cauldrons

Severus sometimes goes to Slughorn and asks him to read him a story at night

He likes to bite things so Lucius always carries hard candies with him

Lily does the same and always feeds them to Sev

Severus once took Regulus into the forbidden forest, they got lost and found a unicorn

Abraxas and Walburga practically tore the school apart when they heard Severus and Regulus were missing

Eventually Severus and Regulus were found, Walburga insists that reg no longer hang out with sev but Abraxas quickly convinces her to let the two boys stay friends

Severus takes Regulus to hang out in Professor Sprout's classroom and introduces Reg to his small personal garden that Sprout helped him grow

He likes to watch the elves cook in the kitchen, sometimes he helps

Severus goes to Professor McGonagall private quarters every Saturday afternoon, according to him that places is his second home

Minerva enjoys his company and always buys him a box of strawberries

Everytime Sev visit he either draws or tells Minerva about what he's learn and what he and his friends do

Minerva hangs up all the drawings he's ever made no matter what

Severus helps Madam Pince put books back on the shelf

Pince sometimes reads to Severus in her spare time

Severus randomly goes into Dumbledore's office just to eat his lemon drops, he'll leave a bottle cap for every lemon drop he takes.

Dumbledore has a box containing a bunch of bottle caps and smiles when he sees some on his desk.

Severus likes to wear shirts with long sleeves, he hates short sleeves and sleeveless shirts

Sev passed out one summer at the Evans Home cause he was wearing a long sleeve shirt and the heat was higher that day.

He likes to wear skirts

Lily gave him her school skirt in 2nd year and Sev gave her his school pants in return.

Lucius had to keep the other slytherins from saying anything mean to sev that year

All the professor's simply thought it was precious

Sev sometimes hangs out with Hagrid, they like to bake together

Severus sneaks out at night with Evan to feed the giant squid in the lake

Sev named the squid "Tiny"

He hates going up and down the stairs alone

He likes to hold Lily's hand as well as Regulus and Lucius

He's scared of the dark

He's also scared of heights

Sev cried for days when one of his plants died

The only reason he stopped was cause Sprout bought him a toy plush cactus

He carries it everywhere with him

He named it "Mona", Professor Sprout said she didn't cry when she found out but we all know she did

Sev thinks Minerva has a pet cat but it's really her in her animagus form

He thinks it's weird that he never sees Minerva and her cat in the same place at the same times but he doesn't question it

Minerva always tells him to take care of her cat and Sev simply nods his head with sheer determination

Sev helps out in the infirmary, all he does is deliver letters written by Pomfrey to Slughorn saying what potions she needs. Sometimes Pomfrey let's Sev give a potion to a patient if he's good.

Sev secretly gives people who come into the infirmary a piece of candy

Sign: Gemini

Hogwarts House: Ravenclaw

Wand: Acacia Wood, Thestral Tail Hair Core, 11”, Supple Flexibility

Age wise he’s only 5 years older than Rebekah but because of her late birthday he’s six years ahead of her in school

Actually had a rather light, playful sense of humor

Very sociable while in school and many people liked him

Very inquisitive and bright and his happiness and adoration for fascinating subjects was downright contagious

Very athletic and wanted to try out for the Quidditch team and enjoyed muggle sports like soccer and volleyball

Extremely gifted in Charms and DADA

Quite artistic and could play the piano (taught by his mother) and ukulele and was talented at drawing and painting

Taught to speak Bulgarian by his father and French by his mother

Fascinated by muggle history

Had the biggest sweet tooth imaginable, especially when he was nervous

Had a bit of a mad scientist vibe going for him but in the absolute most endearing way possible somehow

Loved to learn and try new experiences

Never ever without a novel or his sketchbook on hand

His dad got him really into photography

He really appreciated having Duncan and Olivia around, they were his best friends

And now they’re both gone and he can’t help but blame himself

Who else is there to blame?

Tries not to think about it though

Honestly he’s the biggest dork

Is completely enthralled by nearly everything, he’s just learned to tone it down a bit so people don’t notice

Definitely stays up for hours with existential thoughts and queries running through his head like a mantra

Like, really, why are daffodils yellow?

Truly loves learning for the sake of learning, knowledge for the sake of knowledge, wonder is his middle name

Not really but he likes to wish

Logic and reason are just as fascinating to him as things like creativity, imagination, abstract thoughts

Like why are they? How are they?

He needs to know

Everything’s a mystery and he wouldn’t have it any other way

Duncan couldn’t understand it but he tried to pretend he did

And Olivia would love teasing him for it, but truthfully she was much the same way

Also, show him literally any animal and he’s sold, he’ll love it forever

Carried around tons of snacks in case he saw any wandering around the castle

Always

Really good at playing a part, a bit of a social chameleon, he was whoever he needed to be depending on the person he was with

Which is why no one really understood him

It made him really lonely sometimes

Was always plagued by his need to impress his parents

Weighed down by his fears of never being good enough

Got too good at lying

Didn’t mean for things to go this far

Father: Henry Delyan Roberts

Born: July 2nd, 1948

Sign: Cancer

Blood Status: Muggle

Occupation: Veterinarian but considered being a Pediatrician

When he was 13 his mother moved back to Australia for her job and he was put under the custody of his father during the year and would visit her during the summer

Missed her a lot after she moved and for a while thought it was his fault

He wondered if she moved because she needed to get away from him

He’d heard stories about her initial reaction to becoming a parent and wondered if maybe she never really got over it

Thought maybe if he was better she would have stayed

She wouldn’t have wanted to leave

It’s been a while since those thoughts crossed his mind though and he’s glad that didn’t seem to be the case

Ethnically half Bulgarian on his mother’s side and could speak it fluently and even visited his uncles and cousins there occasionally growing up

Didn’t get to seem them as often as he liked though

Being an only child could get rather lonely and though he loved his dad, he wanted someone to bond with over school or friends or literally anything else

Even so, he really appreciated having his father around

Even before his mother moved away he spent most of his time with his dad and was always a little closer with him than his mom

He supposes his dad was his best friend for a while growing up

Promised himself to be half the man he was when he had a child of his own

Very humble and patient, the kind of person you find yourself itching to be around

Always smiling and laughing, but his laugh was feather light and soft

Had an amazing singing voice

His laugh literally sounds like hummingbirds and wind chimes

Really honest and kind and loved helping people

Did a lot of volunteering as a kid, loved helping people and wouldn’t hurt a fly

Unless you hurt someone he cared about in which case you were utterly screwed

Definitely capable of delivering ass beatings but tried to avoid it as much as possible, even when people deserved it

Great listener, the one where you could be telling a story, look over and be taken completely aback by how intently he was still listening, like he was genuinely interested

Loved playing soccer

Says he loves all animals the same but he’s secretly the biggest dog person

Which is weird because he has a cat he would cut someone for but shhh

It’s a secret

Absolutely loved photography, had two polaroids, a long one and a wide one, baby blue and pastel yellow respectively

Took a lot of pictures of/with Delphine when they were traveling together

Made a scrapbook out of it

Also proceeded to take pictures of his children when he had them

Made a scrapbook out of that too

A simple man, mostly, but he craved adventure and really just wanted to make a difference in the world

Didn’t know what he wanted to do with his life after graduating high school, so he decided to take a year off to travel and find himself

Met Delphine before he even left England

Married her a year later at 19

Jacob was born about a month before he turned 21

Closed completely into himself when his son disappeared

Doesn’t really know what to do with himself now

Mother: Delphine Cécile Roberts (née Leon)

Born: January 19th, 1949

Sign: Capricorn

Hogwarts House: Slytherin

Wand: Cherry Wood, Werewolf Hair Core, 12”, Rigid Flexibility

Blood Status: Pure-Blood

Occupation: Retired Auror after Jacob was born and became an Employee of the Department of Mysteries at the Ministry of Magic

Born into a very pure-blood supremacist family, consisting almost exclusively of Slytherins

Youngest of two daughters

Very close with her sister (Adelaide) growing up, they were nearly inseparable and opposites in almost every way

But her parents found her very problematic

Half French on her mother’s side and could speak the language fluently, often visited family there

Though she kept up the dutiful daughter act around her parents, she couldn’t relate to them at all and never understood why they treated everyone so cruelly

Her sister was her refuge

She felt suffocated in her own house and therefore felt freed whenever returning to Hogwarts

Though kind and respectful, Delphine was very prone to her own brand of subtle mischief when attending school

Having no freedom at her own house, she felt truly free and unrestrained at Hogwarts

Even so, she often spent most of her time alone

At school a lot of non-Slytherin or non-Pure-blooded students were afraid to speak to her but she tried to make it a point to let them know she didn’t subscribe to the same morals or ideals of her parents

Her mother and father knew this and it infuriated them

Unfortunately, most people just couldn’t seem to distinguish between the parent and the child

Once again she had only her sister, but was thankful for her presence nonetheless

It hurt though sometimes when people would cast her aside, thinking there’s nothing inside her worth saving simply because her parents are who they are

Confided this in Adelaide, but the other girl didn’t seem to share the sentiment

Was a 5th and 6th Year prefect and followed in her sister’s footsteps and became Head Girl in her 7th year

Surprised most everyone but they never cared to take the time to look past her heritage and see all her grades and extracurriculars aside from Quidditch

Girl just wanted a friend

Played on the Quidditch team as Slytherin’s star keeper

Was supposed to be married off in an arranged marriage to a Pure-blood she’d never met after graduating but barely managed to convince her sister to lie for her so she could at least take a year to see the world for herself first

Tried to disguise as a muggle so she could slip out of the country unnoticed by her parents and met Henry at the airport on his way to Italy

Spent the year traveling together before getting married

Was then disowned by her parents (and her sister for another year)

Completely fell apart after Jacob disappeared

Hasn’t been the same since

Summary: So Professor McGonagall has a daughter Madelaine Mcgonagall and she's best friends with the Golden Trio and all them. She then also ends up falling for Draco and they secretly date. K thanks mates.

Madelaine was beyond thrilled to be going to hogwarts. It's not that she hasn't seen her friends because she hung out with them all summer. She was just ready to goof off with her mates and be back at hogwarts. As long as her mum didn't scold her.

As much as Madelaine loved hogwarts it did have it's down sides. For example her mother "Professer Mcgonagall" embarrassing her every chance she got. To go ass far as giving her pads in front of the entire class!

Madelaine rolled her eyes and huffed at the memory. She then continued pushing her cart along side the other weasleys. They kind of had arrangement with Mr. and Ms. Weasley that she spent a week with them before school and then went to 9 3/4 with them. Her and Ron didn't mind considering she and Ron had been best friends since they were six.

"I can't wait to see hermione and everyone ron sighed. "Madelaine looked at him weirdly." We saw Hermione and Harrytwo days ago" she said confused. Ron turned crimson stuttered out "right". Madelaine wiggled her eyes suggestively and made a hm sound. Ron was now bright red and tried his best to ignore her. He just rolled his eyes and ran through the brick wall and Madelaine followed quickly behind him.

She smiled at sight of the train. She then squeeled at the sight of her friend Nevil Longbottom. Madelaine had a way with people that no one understood. People seemed to gravitate towards her and she made people instantly happy. Surprisingly she wasn't a hufflepuff but a Gryffindor. She sprinted and catapulted herself into Nevils arms. He lifted her tiny frame easily considering she was only 5'1 and petite. He grinned. "Hey mate!" She said excited. "Hey mads." He said with a chuckle.

Then Ron caught up. "Ron looked it's Nevil!" Said Madelaine. He smiled. "Hey mate" said Ron. They then did that weird guy hug thing. The there chatted till his grandma called him. "See you on the train he" he yelled. "See ya" she replied.

Madelaine soon spotted Harry and ran over Ron following. The three greeted each other Madelaine giving big hugs. Hermione spotted them and made there way over Madelaine and Hermione shrieking and hugging. Ron rolled his eyes. "You two saw each other two days ago" he said. Madelaine just shrugged. "Haters gonna hate" she giggled.

She hugged goodbye to Mr. and Ms. Weasley and then she, ron,harry,and Hermione looking for an empty compartment. They passed Malfoys and crabbe and goyle started cat calling Madelaine and blaise laughing his ass off while Draco just smirked. She blushed and then flipped then off while yelling fuck off you bloody perverts. Both harry and Ron where fuming ready to throw punches.

Madelaine quickly interrupted with a empty compartment. "Assholes" grumbled ron. "Hey it's fine" said Madelaine. " I can handle it"she reassured. " You shouldn't have to' stated harry.

" Guys chill it's over now okay" said Madelaine. The sweats trolly came and they ordered. Madelaine had been sucking on this red long Lolly pop and harry let out a groan of uncomfortableness. "what" she said confused. "Can you just chose a different snack" mumbled ron. "What why?" Said Madelaine "This is my favorite" she frowned confused. " I know why" said Hermione slightly disgusted."why then!" She said annoyed. "You don't wanna know!" They all said at the same time. She frowned and then gave the pop one last lick on the tip ;) and then moved on to a chocolate frog before falling asleep in Hermione.

Okay that was chapter one hope y'all liked it.

There wasn't much romance but this was kind of so you could get to know the character :)

Flitwick began assigning Banu extra charms work to challenge her and when she tells him in her 7th year that she wants to become a Charms professor, Flitwick makes her his first ever TA in his first and second year classes. Banu viewed him as a second father figure. 9/10)

                                  McGonagall (Banu greatly admires and respects McGonagall and respects her. Even though she was just average at Transfiguration, McGonagall liked Banu tremendously for her quick wit and eagerness to learn and made sure to keep an eye on her while she was searching for the Cursed Vaults. When Banu began coming to her and asking “hypothetical” questions about becoming an Animagi, she panicked at first but when she remembered her experiences with the Mauraders, made sure to provide her with the appropriate books and ingredients and also encouraged her to register with Ministry and kept Banu’s secret when she didn’t.

                                              Trelawny (While Banu loves the actual subject and does exceptionally in it, she is really annoyed by Trelawny. Banu is always the subject of her doom and gloom prophecies and thinks that Trelawny is a right old fraud. 4/10)

            Slytherin 

            Shoulder length brown hair, brown eyes, delicate build, 5′7″, pretty

Mona is three years older than Banu and the two girls are very close. Mona graduated from Hogwarts with top grades in her N.E.W.T.s and moves to London to start her career with St. Mungo’s. Mona meets her future husband, Roger Blackwell, there when she’s a trainee Healer and he’s her patient getting treated for a spell that went wrong. When Jacob disappears while searching for the Vaults, Mona strongly advised Banu not to get involved as well. Banu obviously didn’t listen so Mona made sure to send her little sister letters containing news from the outside world and periodically sweets from Honeydukes.

Jacob is two years older than Banu and the siblings have an okay relationship. After Jacob was rescued from the portrait vault by his sister he immediately went after Rakepick and kept Banu in the dark about R and treated her like a kid, which annoyed Banu. After all the vaults are opened and Rakepick is captured and sent to Azkaban, the siblings mend their relationship but things don’t really go back to normal. Jacob gets a job as a Curse-breaker, following in the footsteps of his dad and is assigned to work in Paris. He meets a French pureblood witch while working and soon after meeting marries her. Jacob fought in the Battle of Hogwarts with his family, taking out a few Death Eaters.

             Windswept brown hair, green eyes, strong build, 6′2″

             Senior Banking Administrator for Gringotts

Noel and Banu had a good father-daughter relationship which didn’t change throughout her search for the Cursed Vaults and for his son. He was worried for his daughter’s mental health during that time and made sure to write to her frequently. When Banu brings Barnaby home to meet her family, Noel immediately gave them his blessing which was a relief to the couple since they had worried about Barnaby’s parentage being an issue. Noel fought with his family during the Battle of Hogwarts but sadly was killed by Dolohov while dueling. 

Mother: Fatma Ozturk 

              Durmstrang 

              Long black hair, brown eyes, willowy build, 5′4″ 

              Stay at home mom 

Banu was her mother’s favorite child since she was the youngest. Fatma makes sure to pass down her Turkish culture to her kids and Banu helped her while cooking in the kitchen and Fatma regularly took her kids to Quidditch matches in both England and Turkey. Fatma walked Alexandra down the aisle at her wedding and was a great grandmother when Banu and Barnaby’s children, Hasan and Hazel, were born.

Headcanons

- Fatma had wanted Banu to go to Durmstrang but Noel insisted that she follow her siblings to Hogwarts so she wouldn’t feel lonely. 

-Banu met Rowan Khanna in Diagon Alley and they immediately hit it off, which helped both of them to settle into Hogwarts easier since they had each had someone they already knew with them. 

-Banu was super excited to go to Hogwarts and see her sister and was hoping to be in Slytherin. She was a bit disappointed to be sorted into Ravenclaw but was happy about it after Rowan joined her at the table. 

-Banu could hardly bear wearing the standard skirt uniform so in her third year she started wearing a bowtie and jeans, making the bowtie out of her school tie. Snape gave her detentions for the first couple of months and then gave up after he realized that Banu wasn’t going to stop. 

-She had a small crush on Penny during her first year and when they became friends the crush dissipated into a deep friendship. Penny regularly helped Banu with Potions and was secretly the only reason that Banu got an ‘E’ in Potions. 

-Banu proved to be very good at flying even though her first time on a broom was in her first year. Rowan and Penny convinced her to try out for Quidditch and Banu asked Andre Egwu to help her achieve that. She was pleasantly surprised to learn that she had made the House team. The Davis sisters developed a healthy rivalry on the Quidditch field and Banu enjoyed kicking Mona’s butt. 

-Banu picked up on most subjects easily, like History of Magic and Charms but couldn’t quite get the hang of Potions and Herbology. In her third year she signed up for Divination, Care of Magical Creatures, and Ancient Runes. Rowan made Ancient Runes enjoyable but they got detentions in their fifth year for using runes to insult a group of Gryffindors. 

-Banu formally met Talbott Winger in her second year and immediately tries to become his friend because, well, friendship! She liked how sarcastic Talbott was and matched him wit for wit which made her crush on him grow. When Talbott started dating Badeea at the end of second year she finally gave up on her crush on him, but that doesn’t mean she liked it :( 

-Banu had to beg Talbott for three months straight to help her become an Animagus. It took buying a limited edition raven feather quill and a box of Jelly Slugs to convince him. 

-Banu’s Animagus form turned out to be a fox and Banu took advantage of having a woodland creature as her Animagus form to spy on conversations in the Courtyard and take trips into the Forbidden Forest. 

-Banu was instantly smitten by Barnaby cause hello, emerald green eyes and dimples. She helped him realize that he doesn’t need ‘friends’ like Merula and Ismelda and that he wasn’t stupid. Barnaby gave her a Bowtruckle, that she named Twiggy, and Banu almost fainted when he gave her a kiss on the cheek during their first date on Valentine’s Day.  

-Banu drove Chester crazy since she lost points frequently in Snape’s classes due to her smart mouth. She equally drove him crazy by the fact that she more than double earned them back in her other classes. Don’t even get him started on the time he caught her, Rowan, and Penny making Firewhiskey in the Artifact Room. Banu gave Chester a plaque that read “Best Prefect Ever” in their House colors when he graduated and he may or may not have it displayed proudly on his mantle in his flat. 

-Banu frequently visited the Library with Rowan and their study sessions usually ended in a few rounds of Exploding Snap, singed eyebrows and eyelashes, and Madam Pince sending flying books to chase them out.

-Bill Weasley often had to physically restrain Banu from launching herself head first into physical fights with douchebag Gryffindors that insulted her family and Rowan. Mysteriously those same Gryffindors showed up in the hospital wing frequently, Obliviated and with broken bones. Bill knew absolutely nothing about this because of course he would report it. 

-Banu frequently teamed up with Tulip and Tonks to play pranks on the student body and was a nuisance so imagine her surprise when she was chosen as a prefect over Rowan. The best friends didn’t speak for about two weeks since Rowan was pretty upset. Banu took a special trip to Diagon Alley to get a limited edition book from Flourish and Blotts as a make up gift. The girls patched things up and Banu gives Rowan House points whenever she can. 

-Banu enjoyed patrolling the halls with Charlie Weasely and scaring students who are out after hours. They once caught Penny snogging a Gryffindor in the bushes around the Courtyyard and the two prefects had a good time being all ‘mom and dad’ about the situation. 

-Barnaby and Banu had most of their dates in Hogsmeade that usually started with going to Honeydukes, hanging out with their friends in the Three Broomsticks, and ended with a snogging session in the Astronomy Tower.

Letters to my Parents - Sunday 20 February 1994 - by Alinda

Sunday 20 February 1994

Dear mom and dad,

My Patronus lessons aren’t going as great as I would like. Draco has no problem conjuring his Patronus. The Tigress is beautiful and always drives the Dementor away. I, on the other hand, are only capable of producing an indistinct, silvery shadow that won’t do anything. It just makes the Dementor hover in place, draining me until I almost pass out. Draco gives me disappointing looks after each lesson. I think he knows that I secretly desire to hear your voices again. Professor Lupin is really proud of both of us. He told me that it’s a huge achievement for a thirteen-year-old wizard to produce an indistinct Patronus. He had complete confidence in me, that I would be okay during the Quidditch match against Ravenclaw. Well, I was, but not thanks to my Patronus, no it was Draco that saved me.

Professor Lupin told us about the Dementor’s Kiss. I don’t think he really wanted to, but I asked him what was under the hood of a Dementor. When a Dementor kisses you it sucks out your soul. It sounds horrible. You won’t be dead, just soulless. You’ll have no more sense of self or any memories. And your soul will be lost forever. Hermione once said something about the importance of souls, that our magic is connected to our souls somehow. I can’t remember it correctly anymore. Lupin said that the Ministry plans to give Sirius Black the Dementor’s Kiss when they find him. I told Lupin he deserves it. Lupin was really shocked when I said that. Draco took my hand and squeezed it tightly then, forcing me to shut my mouth. I was not supposed to know about how Black had betrayed both of you.

That same day I also got my hands again on my Firebolt. Professor Snape told us that there was nothing wrong with it at all and that I have a very good friend somewhere. I couldn’t believe it when it was in my hands again. Draco was stroking the twigs at the end, just as in awe as me. We took it down into our common room. The moment I stepped inside I was flooded by people wanting to see my Firebolt. Marcus asked if he could just touch it, to know that it’s really real. Adrian was sure we would win from Ravenclaw now with no problem since they are all on Cleansweep Sevens. It took forever, with the Firebolt being passed around and admired from every angle by the crowd before Draco and I could get to our dormitory.

Madam Hooch, who’s still overseeing our practices to make sure I don’t get killed, was also impressed with the Firebolt and gave us her professional opinion. She kept on going on about different brooms until Marcus asked if I could get my broom back so we could practice. Marcus informed us that Cho Chang was fit enough again to play as seeker in the game and that me being gay was a great advantage. I won’t be distracted by her good looks. I think Marcus thinks she’s pretty. She’s a fourth-year, so maybe a little too young for him, but the entire team agrees he has the hots for her.

After Marcus his little speech I could finally mount my Firebolt. And it was better than I’d ever dreamed. It turns with the lightest touch and seems to obey my thoughts rather than my grip. It’s so fast that the stadium turned into a green-and-grey blur. It was so easy to catch the snitch now that I had a broom this amazing. The other members of the team also seemed inspired by the presence of the Firebolt and performed their best moves faultlessly. After I got the snitch for the third time I just hovered in the air to see Draco fly and practice his moves. Because I braid his hair only at the front it still sweeps behind him when he flies and he looks so beautiful when he does. I wanted to fly up to him and jump him right then and there.

I’ve been thinking about it, touching Draco, seeing him without his clothes. Ever since Christmas. And during our Valentines date, I found out he thought about it too. We had a lovely picnic beside the lake. Draco had managed to get an order in for picnic food from Hogsmeade. It was lovely. After we finished the food we took a walk around the lake until we ended up at the Quidditch changing rooms. Draco pushed me inside and we started snugging. And before I knew it Draco was pushing my sweater over my head and stroking his hands all over my bare torso. Well, I’m sure you don’t want to read all the details. It ended with Draco’s shirt on the ground too and his hand down my trousers, wrapped around me. Fuck, that felt good, to have his hands on me. I repaid him the favour after the match against Ravenclaw and I can say it’s just as hot as having his hands on me.

On the day of the match, Marcus placed my Firebolt on the breakfast table. Most students loved how the other house stared at it jealously. Marcus was most pleased with Wood’s disbelieved reaction. They are both so determent to win the cup this year it’s has become a dangerous rivalry. I believe professor Snape had to stop the two from fighting in his class the other day. Wood thinks it’s unfair I fly a Firebolt, that it gives Slytherin an unfair advantage. Diggory, the team captain of Hufflepuff is a lot nicer. He came by to congratulate me on my new broom. He even apologised again for not realising I fell off my broom when he caught the snitch in our last game. I told him it was fine as long as he would lose all his other games. He laughed and said he couldn’t promise anything.

Nott and Crabbe had to say so stupid things before the match, asked me if the new broom came with a parachute, just in case the Dementors come near me. Draco told them to shut their mouth and pulled out his wand. Adrian and Miles also took out their wants and said it would be fun to hex them back into the dungeons. I’ve heard that Nott wanted to try out for the team this year for the seeker position and was that he’s been angry about me getting the spot without any try-outs.

The game started out good. Lee Jordan, a friend of Fred and George was commenting and had to be reminded a couple of times to stop advertising the Firebolt and focus on the game instead. I just flew around, looking for the golden snitch. Chang was a good flier and followed me around the pitch. The most fun in the game was every time I passed Draco, seeing he was in possession of the Quaffle and he would blow me a small kiss. He scored the first goal of the game and most of the goals for Slytherin after that. He’s really the star of our team and I’m so proud of him.

It was hard to find the snitch. Every time I saw it and tried to go for it, either a Bludger or Chang would block my way. Marcus yelled at me to stop being a gentleman and just knock Chang of her broom. His crush completely forgotten. I followed his advice and did a nice dive, Chang followed me and struggled to get out of the dive when I did. Then I saw the snitch and accelerated towards it. Chang was falling far behind and I knew I was going to get it. Then Chang screamed and I looked around quickly. There were a couple of Dementors looking at me and without thinking I pulled out my wand to perform the Patronus charm, only Draco beat me and his beautiful Tigress charged at the Dementors. I turned back to the snitch, didn’t even wait to watch what would happen to the Dementors. I just wanted to win this match, so I reached out and grabbed the snitch. Madam Hooch blew her whistle and in seconds Draco’s mouth was on mine. He kissed me midair to loud chairs of all the Slytherins. I knew they chaired because we had won, but still, it was amazing. The rest of the team joined us in the air and they all hugged me. Marcus kept yelling that he knew the gay duo was the best.

When we got down to the ground the Slytherin supporters came sprinting towards us, all shouting and chairing. Blaise was so happy because he had a bet going with Luna on who would win. Professor Snape was also between the students and congratulated us on the win and told Draco he showed some proper spell work with his Patronus charm. His eyes kept flickering between me and Draco and it felt like he was worried. I said the Dementors didn’t even affect me this time and that’s when Professor Snape showed us who the Dementors had been. It was Wood, the team captain of Gryffindor, together with Nott and Crabbe. Professor McGonagall was shouting at them and gave them all detention. Unfortunately, she also took 100 points from our house because of it. When Marcus saw Wood struggling to remove himself from a long, black, hooded robe he just stormed away, screaming something about that Wood was a pussy for trying to sabotage the Slytherin team.

After that day, Nott and Crabbe avoid the common room and sit alone during meals. None of the other Slytherins like it that they almost destroyed our chances to win the Quidditch Cup this year. Draco says it’s deserved after everything they did to me, but I feel sorry for them. I know how hard it is when the rest of your house hates you. I hope everyone just forgets about it soon and things go back to normal.

On our way back to the castle Hermione came to congratulate us on our win. She told me her friendship with Ron is totally history now. She never wants to talk to Ron again. He accused her cat Crookshanks of eating his rat Scabbers. She had a whole speech for Draco and I that Ron has no proof that Crookshanks had eaten Scabbers and that Ron has been prejudiced against her cat ever since Crookshanks had landed on Ron’s head in the Magical Menagerie.  When I later talked to Neville, he explained that Ron hasn’t found Scabbers as of yet and that he has solid proof. It turns out his sheet had blood on it, and Crookshanks’ hairs were found at the scene. I told Hermione that maybe Ron was right and she just yelled at me. That off course all of it was her fault and that I should just leave her alone. I think her massive workload is catching up with her. She didn’t even want to join the party we had after the Quidditch match, said she had to read a book for Muggle studies before Monday. So after our last Transfiguration lesson this week, I waited till everyone left the classroom and told Professor McGonagall that I’m worried about Hermione taking on to many classes. She said she would have a talk with Hermione and make sure she’s fine. I hope Hermione won’t hate me for looking out for her, I just miss my best friend. Remember that I was supposed to meet up with her after my last letter, well she never showed up. She had fallen asleep on her books in the Gryffindor common room.

The day after the match we heard that Black and broken into Gryffindor tower. He had torn Ron’s bed hangings. Neville told us all about it, said Black had a knife and that it was all his fault. He had lost the piece of paper with the passwords for that week and that is how Black had gotten into Gryffindor tower. He’s banned from any more Hogsmeade visits this year. I felt really sorry for him when he got a howler from his grandmother.

Ever since that night, there are more security measures. Filch is boarding up every little crack in the walls he can find. It’s kind of funny to watch. Also, we had a little meeting with our Slytherin friends. We didn’t invite Hermione and Luna, not sure if they will agree to help or even keep their mouth shut. We are working on a plan to find Black and give him the punishment he deserves. Daphne and Greg had some very good ideas and Blaise wondered if he could get some tips from his mother on how to best kill Black. Really, Blaise and his mom their relationship is a mystery to me. Who would ask his own mother on tips of how to kill someone? But more to the point, we have a plan at the ready, we just need to get all our supplies during our next trip to Hogsmeade.

Draco is really confused as to why Black went for the Gryffindor tower and Ron. Keeps muttering there needs to be an explanation as to why Black isn’t going after me. That by now Black most have realised I’m not in Gryffindor but in Slytherin. He’ll figure it out soon enough and enlighten me about it all, until then I know it’s best to just let him stew on it.

I’m going off to bed now. Love you both,

Harry James Potter.

[zephyrbcll]

In these four walls my thoughts seem to wander

Zephyr wasn’t going to deny that he was a flawed person. He knew he had shortcomings and he could even name some of them if prompted. He was a hothead, he was jealous and possessive, he didn’t enjoy sharing, he was impatient, he was prone to thinking he was right and making decisions for others, he was a little entitled and yes, he’d heard the word controlling before.

That said, Zephyr also insisted that he had good qualities, thank you very fucking much. In this case, he was supportive even if he wasn’t sure how happy he was about it.

No, he was happy for Remus. He knew that Remus wanted to be a teacher and while Dumbledore’s attitude left him a little suspicious about the man’s motives, the fact that Remus would be able to achieve something he wanted mattered to Zephyr. Besides, he thought it would be a good change of pace for Remus to take the job even if he doubted early morning classes would go over well.

So he was happy for Remus, and he’d support Remus in going after what he wanted to achieve his dreams, just like he was also proud of Remus and certain that he would do a good job.

The problem was, it also sucked.

Zephyr wasn’t sure if there was a precise time when he’d gone from wanting Remus to feel at home in the house to actually calling it home, but by the time Katie arrived, Zephyr made sure to check in with Remus about all the updates he was doing in order to make sure that Remus would feel welcome and ‘home’ was a word that generally meant wherever the other would be. 

The house wasn’t supposed to become ‘home’ because Remus’ flat blew up, but that was the way things worked out and besides, Remus still had other options and Zephyr still made a big deal out of asking Remus to move in as a counter to Remus asking if it was okay.

So maybe the circumstances weren’t perfect, but it was the perfect outcome for Zephyr, who’d been waiting for Remus to move in for months, doing his best to wait patiently for Remus to be ready because the last thing he wanted to do was rush Remus. His boyfriend, his cat, and his baby all in one place appealed to something inside of Zephyr and even if Remus spent more nights with him than not, it was nice to have it be official.

Needless to say, Zephyr was happily picturing spending the rest of his days sharing a roof with Remus and he got to experience that certainty for all of about three and a half months before he found out about the job offer.

He was happy for Remus. He was glad that Remus was getting another shot at being a professor and he knew that Remus would be good at it, Zephyr was proud of him. It just sucked to think of him moving out and living somewhere else again. Living together wasn’t supposed to be temporary, it was supposed to be permanent.

Two days after Remus told him about the job offer, Zephyr was finished feeling sorry for himself and had decided to do what he did best, which was fight.

Losing wasn’t exactly a concept that Zephyr was at peace with, he was absolutely certain that if given enough time, he could beat anything that got in his way and he was prepared to pitch a fit if that’s what it took to make sure that he was heard. 

Before that point, however, he had to do some listening of his own, which started at the radio station. He talked to the others that worked on air, then he hit up the pubs to talk to the bartenders since they always seemed to be a good source of gossip, and both places led him back to Hogsmeade, where he talked to a select group of individuals that lived not too far from the edge of the village.

After that, he wrote a letter to Hogwarts. Considering the fact that Dumblefore was supposed to secretly be in charge of an illegal group of vigilantes and running a school and also serve as part of the government to some degree that Zephyr always managed to forget since the man seemed to have multiple titles, he expected to get the runaround. Instead he was treated to a return owl later that day that assured him that he had a lunch appointment for the next day.

While Zephyr didn’t ask about it, he had a hunch that his connection with Remus and Dumbledore’s eagerness to have him on the staff was a large part of just why it was so damn easy to get a meeting with the man. Really, there was no reason why it should be that damn easy to get hold of the man, but Zephyr wasn’t going to argue about it because this just meant scheduling was one less thing he had to fight about.

“Mr. Bell,” Professor McGonagall stated when he arrived the next day. “You’re early.”

“Professor McGonagall,” Zephyr responded in kind, a well ingrained respect for women making sure that Zephyr minded his manners. “Believe it or not, I’m actually pretty punctual.”

“I’m sure. I’ll show you to Professor Dumbledore’s office. This way.” Something about the pinch of her lips made it seem like she wasn’t swayed either way by him being early or on time, but since she was showing him to Dumbledore’s office and not having him wait on a bench somewhere for the next twenty minutes, Zephyr didn’t think it was too much of a problem.

Following her through long corridors and up moving stairs, Zephyr thought it was some sort of mind game to expect students to remember where everything was and he wondered absently what happened if a student was ever pushed or throwing off the staircases while they were moving, if there was some sort of safety measure in place or if they’d simply fall to their doom. 

What floor were they even on? 

“Here we are, Mr. Bell,” McGonagall stated as she stopped in front of a large statue and Zephyr wasn’t stupid, he didn’t need to see a door to figure out they’d made it considering it hadn’t been that long ago that he was crawling through portraits and sneaking around through secret tunnels hidden behind statues in this very castle. 

“Thanks.” Despite the fact he was quite a bit taller than her (which wasn’t unusual, he was taller than most people, thank you very much), Zephyr had the feeling that the deputy headmistress viewed him the same as she would an unruly first year that wasn’t appreciative in the least of the trouble he’d found themselves in, but he meant what he said and for reasons she likely didn’t know. “Seriously, thank you.”

“Good luck with your meeting.” She told him, still sounding as if she had better things to do than escort an American visitor around. “Fizzing Whizbees!”

About the moment that Zephyr had to wonder what candy had to do with the conversation, the statue began to twist to reveal a staircase and McGonagall turned to walk away, apparently not too worried about what he would do once Dumbledore was finished with him. He didn’t know if she was always so abrupt or if she had some aversion to Americans, but Zephyr was endeared to her and grinned at her back before taking his way to the steps.

The closer he made it to the top, the more focused Zephyr became on his mission, the encounter with McGonagall having bolstered his confidence and his determination not to take ‘no’ for an answer. Daisy had told Zephyr once that he wasn’t someone you won an argument against and he planned on proving her right on that.

The door was partially open when he made it to his destination and Dumbledore either heard him or had something that alerted him of the presence of others because Zephyr hadn’t made it halfway to the door before he heard a voice say, “Come in.”

Good thing, too, because Zephyr hadn’t exactly been planning to knock.

“Professor Dumbledore, I want to have a word with you.” Zephyr started as soon as he entered the room, pushing the door shut behind himself and hearing it slam a little harder than he’d necessarily meant to. While there was certainly plenty in Dumbledore’s office to distract a guest and prompt them to stare, Zephyr kept his attention focused on Dumbledore like a man on a mission, not even giving the Phoenix off to one side more than a cursory glance.

“I know you want Remus as your Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. Fuck, I know you wanted him before the start of the year and I get it, he’s fucking brilliant and from the sounds of it, he spent enough time tutoring back when he was in school that he might as well have been a teacher. And it’s just the first four years, right? After that, they go to someone else, so he gets the beginners, the kids that need to have a good teacher and not someone that will shit on them the first time they don’t get something right and Remus has a good understanding of the basics and hell, he’s a better wizard now than he was when he was in school.” Zephyr ranted, opting to ignore the chair in front of Dumbledore’s desk in favor of pacing, waving his hand through the air to emphasize his point.

Dumbledore, for his part, didn’t say anything. Instead he sat with his fingers steeped beneath his chin, half moon spectacles appearing in danger of slipping off his nose as he watched Zephyr with what seemed to be an amused, indulgent expression that went unnoticed by its recipient.

“And yeah, I know I wasn’t in school with him, so how the fuck can I say I know he’s better? Simple fucking logic, people get better at things over time and not only that, but I trained him. We went out and worked on spells together, on wandless and nonverbal magic and you know what he did? He worked on it. He’s dedicated and hardworking and so fucking smart, he sounds like he swallowed the textbook, I know this and I’m sure you know it, too.” During his rant, Zephyr never seemed to stop for breath until he came to a pause before Dumbledore’s desk, staring at the man intently and finally getting around to the point of his visit.

Sucking in a deep breath, Zephyr rolled his shoulders and continued, “I understand why you want him here, but here’s the thing. You don’t need him here. Not all the time. Look, I did my research. Professor McGonagall lived in Hogsmeade until her husband died last year in one of the Death Eater attacks. She taught here without actually living here for years, so I know there’s precedent for it.

“And yeah, I know she’s deputy headmistress and you can say that’s special circumstances, she was married and all that, but these are special, too. Remus and I have a kid, okay, he should get to see her grow up instead of just visiting on weekends. I know she’s not the only one either, I hear you had a professor once that lived in the Leaky Cauldron with his wife, so you can’t say that Mcgonagall gets away with it before of her position. And even if she did, you already have a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor living in the castle. You don’t need Remus here, but Katie and I, we do. We need him.”

There was silence for a moment, a slight note of desperation having crept into Zephyr’s voice by the end. There wasn’t any reason that Dumbledore should insist on Remus living in the castle unless he was up to some trick and the fixation the man showed in hiring Remus as well as the way Remus reacted to the first job offer left Zephyr with the worry that Dumbledore had an ulterior motive, the uncertainty leaving an unpleasant taste in his mouth.

“Ah.” Dumbledore said finally. “You must be Mr. Bell.”

It was at that moment that Zephyr realized he’d forgotten to introduce himself, but he didn’t falter in his stance.

Lowering his hands and gesturing towards the chair, Dumbledore smiled kindly as he said, “Why don’t we chat, dear boy?”

Phantasma Magica Ch. 8

STORY SUMMARY

Clockwork and the Observants send Danny to Hogwarts on a special mission. But, cryptic as ever, that Old Stopwatch never actually told him what would happen on it!!! “All you need to do right now, Daniel, is stay focused on your mission. And remember, the-” “‘The Lions with the time-turner, lightning-bolt scar, and hair like fire are friends; watch out for the rat; and the black dog is not a threat.’ Yeah, you’ve only repeated that a few dozen times today.”

Next → ← Previous (First)

When Danny arrived in Lupin’s office without the promised rat, well...

Sirius was furious. They now had essentially no way of finding Pettigrew -- except wandering around and hoping against hope that they spotted him.

Remus tried to calm him down. “He won’t have gone far. He has no reason to suspect Danny’s true motives. I’m sure he’ll turn up again-” “But for how long?! We had him! I KNEW I should’ve gotten him myself!” Danny floated down and let his feet touch the floor near the pacing Sirius. “I’m sorry. I can try to track him, but it’s hard to feel a living human soul under an animal’s mind.” Sirius stopped walking and spun to face him. His jaw tight, he growled, “I have a better idea.”

They spent several hours using Sirius’ dog nose and knowledge of the castle (helped by Danny’s invisibility) to search. But with no luck.

Still. The walk and passing of time helped calm Sirius a bit. After finishing by searching the castle grounds -- still with no luck -- they ended their search in the Shrieking Shack.

Defeated, Sirius changed back into a human and sat on the dilapidated excuse for a bed. “...” Danny floated there awkwardly. Remembering how he had almost attacked innocent Sirius in this room... “... I know there wasn’t much you could do.” Sirius head continued to hang -- he was looking at the news clipping he’d shown Danny. The one with the picture of “Scabbers.” “He knows this castle just as well as Moony and me. I just…” A shadow passed over his expression, but he looked up with a fire in his eyes. “I refuse to let that traitor go free. I don’t want go back to Azkaban -- you have no idea what being around that many of those things is like -- but I’d rather that than let Wormtail continue living like nothing happened.” His gaze softened, and his mouth thinned into a line. “That’s no excuse for taking it out on you, though, so… I’m sorry about that. We’ll just have to keep our eyes open for now.”

It had been a particularly long day for Danny, so, despite the sun being up, he decided to sleep in his makeshift bedroom in the Pipes. He had taken some pillows from the Divination classroom, a spare blanket from a closet -- and so on -- to form as cosey a resting area as he could manage in the damp space. Granted, the cold didn’t affect him (thankfully), but these things (the cushions especially) made it easier to relax.

“Scabbers” never showed up again, though, and the disappearance of his beloved pet had a rather unexpectedly drastic effect on Ron. As more and more time passed with no evidence as to what happened, he came to the most natural conclusion: “First the Firebolt, and now this! That bloody cat of yours ate him! He ATE SCABBERS!” If Danny didn’t know better, he probably would’ve agreed with Ron -- Crookshanks had shown a lot of interest in hunting the malnourished rodent, after all. But the extent to which Ron was blaming Hermione for his pet’s “death” was… actually mildly concerning. Danny excused most of Ron’s behaviour as raging hormones, but still… 

A part of him, a large part of him, wanted to tell them what actually happened -- that Scabbers was Pettigrew, that they had no reason to worry about Black anymore… -- But he just couldn’t risk it. If he told them, they’d act differently. And he had no way of knowing if or when Pettigrew might be watching. He couldn’t afford to tip him off. So instead... he let Ron mourn his rat.

Danny had been going with Harry to his anti-dementor lessons, regularly talking with Lupin about phantasms afterwards. The professor had decided to write a book about him. (No personal information, of course!) It was during one of these that Danny’s dislike -- bordering on hate -- of the wizards’ Ministry was solidified. “It was in the Daily Prophet this morning. The Ministry have given the dementors permission to suck out Sirius’ soul if they find him.” “-What?!” “It’s not that surprising, really. It’s one of the most extreme punishments for criminals -- but that’s the type of criminal they believe him to be.” “How are you so calm about this?!” “I assure you, I am not. But there’s not much more we can do about it than we already are doing. Sirius will just have to be extra careful not to get caught.”

Danny couldn’t argue with that. And besides, he had other things to distract him when he saw his friends the next morning. The teachers had finally satisfied themselves that Sirius’ anonymous present to Harry, the “Firebolt” broomstick, was safe. But while Harry was just excited to have his broom back (him and the entirety of the Gryffindor House, who seemed to think the Quidditch Cup was practically theirs because of it) -- Ron took this as yet more proof of Hermione being a terrible friend. “See, Hermione? There wasn’t anything wrong with it!” “Well -- there might have been!” Danny supposed Hermione’s arguing back didn’t help matters much… “I mean, at least you know now that it’s safe!” “Yeah, I suppose so,” was Harry’s response. ‘Oh wow. I hope I wasn’t this oblivious back when-’ He cut off that thought. There was no point in thinking about that now.

With Ron even more opposed to spending time with Hermione; and Harry thoroughly distracted by the Firebolt, his lessons with Lupin, and the upcoming Quidditch match against the Hufflepuff house… Danny decided to spend more time with Hermione. Hermione, who was secretly using a time-turner to time-travel and attend more classes than she should be able to, but was somehow now drowning in homework in the Gryffindor Common Room… … Danny was very confused.

He tapped her shoulder lightly before speaking so she’d know it was him. “Why don’t you just use the time-turner to get more rest?” he whispered. “What?!” She flinched. That was too loud. She checked to make sure no one noticed, then whispered, “How do you know about the time-turner?” “I was sent here by Clockwork, the Master of Time, remember? That thing is giving off faint time-aura from under your shirt. Although, I can probably only detect it because I’ve been around the stuff so much.” She was silent for a moment. “I’m supposed to avoid changing time as much as possible. Loads of wizards who’ve meddled with time have ended up killing their past or future selves by mistake! To use it for anything other than the absolutely essential is too risky! Professor McGonagall was very clear about the rules I was to follow in order to use it. It’s all part of her agreement with the Ministry.” Danny contained a snort of laughter. “Um… Actually… It’s more like the agreement they have with Clockwork.”

Hermione stopped writing in her notes. “I can personally guarantee that using the time-turner to, y’know… not go insane will be perfectly fine by my mentor.” “... Could we… Speak in private for a bit?” Danny thought he knew where this was going. “You want to know more about Clockwork and stuff?” “If that’s alright.” “I can share a little, anyway.”

Hermione packed up her schoolwork, and they moved to an abandoned classroom. “So the Ministry -- or someone at the Ministry -- knows Chron- I mean, Clockwork?!” “Well… Kind of. I’m not allowed to tell you much, but let’s just say that most of those deaths were actually Clockwork following the orders of HIS bosses. Time travel’s not all that dangerous, really.” “What about paradoxes?” “Things just split into a new timeline.” “Huh… So then, why all the rules?” “To keep humans from abusing the power. They -- Clockwork’s bosses -- don’t like not knowing what’s going to happen.”

There was silence for a few moments while Hermione thought. “Danny… You said Clockwork is your guardian.” “Yeah…” It wasn’t a question. “I’m, uh… Not a normal phantasm…” Hermione winced. “I don’t want to make you uncomfortable.” “No, it’s alright.”

Danny settled down at one of the desks. “... I used to be human. My parents were ghost hunters -- some of the best in the field, in fact! They built what was supposed to be a portal into the ghosts’ dimension -- the ‘Ghost Zone’ -- but it didn’t work. I, like an idiot, went inside to get a closer look. It turned on with me inside it.” Hermione’s eyes widened, but she didn’t speak. “In order for a phantasm to form, rather than be born, a soul has to come in contact with a large amount of ectoplasmic energy and have a strong enough will to live. Clockwork… He saved me. If not for him, I wouldn’t have become a phantasm -- I’d just be dead.” “Oh…” “...”

“Have you… ever gone back?” “...” Danny looked at the desk in front of him. “A few times. But, uh… Going back for too long or often would… not be good. I could become ‘tied’ there and never able to leave. And if that happened…” He paled, “I’d-rather-not-think-about-it.” “I’m sorry!” “--No, no… It’s alright.” He smiled at her. “You, uh, actually remind me a lot of one of my friends from back then.” His eyes lit up, and he smiled. “Sam, she was this big activist. She was a self-proclaimed ‘ultra-recyclo-vegetarian’ and goth, and she always had a cause -- usually multiple -- that she was fighting for! She would’ve loved your whole ‘free the house-elves’ movement! And my sister, Jazz -- you’re both ridiculously smart and like taking care of your friends.” Hermione was blushing a little bit, but seemed pleased. “You must miss them terribly.” Danny grimaced, his smile fading. “Yeah…”

She moved over so she could rest her hand on his arm. Cold, but not as freezing as she expected. “If there’s anything I can do to make this place feel more like home to you…” She smiled comfortingly at him. “Just tell me. You’re my friend.” He smiled back at her.

“So, uh… You going to start using the time-turner more?” “Oh!” Hermione moved back to where she had spread out her homework and grabbed a blank piece of parchment. She started muttering and working out some math problems. “... Yes, if I take a few hours out of my sleeping schedule, there should be enough room for two of me in my bed… And that room should be empty during this period…” She seemed satisfied after a few minutes. And indeed, Hermione looked much more rested after that. Danny even played lookout on occasion to make sure no one noticed multiple Hermiones wandering around.

‘Now that I’ve solved that problem…’ Ron had noticed Danny was spending more time with Hermione, and he took it as a sign of betrayal. Danny tried to think of some way he could bridge the gap between the two: ‘He’ll come around eventually. Even if it won’t be until he finds out about Pettigr-though... I guess that might just make him MORE upset…’ … But he was coming up empty.

Harry (or rather, Harry’s Firebolt) was more successful at cheering Ron up. There was a lot of excitement as the first match came up that Harry’d be riding it in. And when Danny got to see Harry fly on it, he understood why.

It wasn’t quite as fast as Danny was when he flew -- but it was pretty damn close! No one else on (above?) the field stood a chance! And to put icing on the cake, Harry completely humiliated some bullies who tried to sabotage him, too! Malfoy -- (‘Why is it always Malfoy?! That’s it. I need to ask them how this rivalry started!’) -- and some of his friends had thought it was a brilliant idea to try and scare Harry by dressing up and pretending to be dementors. But, as Lupin put it, Harry “gave Mr. Malfoy quite a fright” when he used the “patronus charm” he’d been working on in his anti-dementor lessons against them. The group of Slytherin students got into a lot of trouble for their stunt, AND Harry won the game for the Gryffindor team!

And for a while, things were actually peaceful -- for both Danny AND his friends.

But still without any sign of Peter Pettigrew.

#Harry Potter #Danny Phantom #phantasma magica #phicc #atrieisan

[nightingaletrash]

10, 11, 13, and 17 for MC asks :)

tysm :DDD

10. Do they have a job back home?

Recently she started working part-time at the local pub, mostly because when at school she works part-time for Madam Rosmerta, so she’s had some first hand experience with that kind of work. She also helps her mum with the various creatures that come into her care at the clinic, and with the ones she brings home for round the clock care. 

11. Do they have pets?

Oh yeah, honestly it’s good of her roommates to not rat her out for all her pets XD

She has the standard owl, cat, toad, and rat - the owl and cat came from home, whereas the toad she took from another student who didn’t want it, and the rat she adopted after it took to following her around the castle.

In her fifth year, a kneazle from CoMC was decided to be too aggressive to work with students and would have been euthanised before Evie decided to ‘take it on’… yes she stole it. No she has no regrets. As it so happens, the kneazle, Valkyrie, is perfectly happy to curl up and sleep in a cat basket, so McGonagall (who obviously found out, it’s McGonagall) made the decision not to punish her and informed Professor Kettleburn that Valkyrie was not only safe but apparently much happier being a pet than a class creature.

Hagrid is so proud

Back at home the family has a pet crup, a pair of Irish setters, a border collie, a former farm cat and a family owl, and there’s usually some form of magical creature(s) that’s staying with them to be cared for. Their muggle neighbours - who are completely unaware of the magical creatures - often ask Kara if she can take care of their horses when they’re on their summer holidays, so Evie gets to do some work with them when she’s home from school.

13. Their ACTUAL worst fear, and how does it represent itself in a boggart?

Initially it was Jacob being dead. Lately however it takes the form of a faceless figure in Jacob’s clothing wearing a mask of Jacob’s face because whilst she’s determined to find her big brother, she’s secretly terrified that Penny could be right and he’s not the Jacob that she remembers.

17. Who is their best friend and who is their worst friend? (From the friend list)

Her best friend is Rowan, obviously!! Evie feels horrible that she’s been spending less time with Rowan, and that it’s made Rowan feel neglected and like she’s being left behind. She wants to make it up to her by going on holiday together during the summer, or at the very least make up for lost time without all the danger that shows up at school.

Her worst friend is probably Diego. Not because he’s a bad friend, or because she dislikes him or anything, but because all the flirting just makes her feel kind of uncomfortable and she’d like him to stop. Of course that’s on her to say something (WHERE ARE MY OPTIONS JAMCITY) but yeah… sorry Diego, it’s nothing personal :/

#missnight0wl #hphm #evie jensen #kara jensen #jacob jensen #rowan khanna #diego caplan #but yeah pls jamcity give us the option to ask diego to stop flirting #it's really squicky for me which makes interacting with diego... less than fun :/ #which sucks because otherwise he's a genuinely nice person and i'm sure he'd stop IF YOU GAVE US THE OPTION TO SAY SOMETHING JC
