#Albus Severus? she’s asking for a divorce.

[myjealouseyes]

They were playing deathly hollows part two in my physical therapy place today so I felt like it was a sign to talk about how quickly wolfstar!daughter would backhand Harry if he ever suggested naming their child Albus Severus.

[homelessbb]

Plotting my newest HP fanfic

- Hogwarts but add more modernity maybe add some muggle subjects like math and science? Also more club and activity

- Tom Riddle and Harry are related; distant cousins (also Harry’s senior) who roasted each other alive but trust and relying on others (good relationships/no hard feelings)

- Lily is Harry’s senior at Hogwarts and James are Harry’s older brother (different mom) Harry’s parents divorced and he’s living with his mom family. They didn’t treat him well after his mom passed away

- Harry later living with Tom in Peverell house Tom inherited, Tom change his surname from Riddle to Peverell; refused to use his father name neither for his mother.

- Gaunt family has been fallen, the member such as Tom’s grandfather and uncle died not so long after being released from Azkaban. And even there’s other member left it’s doesn’t matter

- James’s group is Harry favorite senior gang, especially Sirius who proudly told everyone that Harry is his younger brother

- Lily and James are dating, maybe fiancée

- Severus Snape is Lily best friend, he despises James and still concerned that his bestie dating this man.

- Harry and Severus first impression wasn’t good but they’re get along now— Severus never admits that he’s care about Harry but everyone knows he’s like Harry protective father, Severus helps harry with his studies A LOTS

- Lucius and Draco are siblings, Draco is Harry no.1 rival (at least Draco name it himself) he’s love teasing harry but it clearly for the whole school that Draco has a crush on Harry. Harry knows and waiting for Draco to ask him out (also has feeling for him) and Draco? Still in denial

- Lucius acting like Severus sugar daddy (and gladly to be one—) Nacissa is Lucius fiancée but they didn’t love each other, also Nacissa have her own love story. Both Nacissa and Lucius planing to go against their parents

- Sirius is cut ties from Black family living in his own apartment; looking laidback but already had his path prepared for future without his family support

- Regulas not understanding his brother later talk things out with Sirius by the help of Severus, Nacissa and others

- Severus roommate is Regulas. Nacissa convinced Snape to take care of her younger brother with some deal. In Regulas POV Sev is his dream older brother figure and very attached to Sev. After talk with Sirius, Regulas is being very supportive when he’s know Sirius has a crush on Sev— he always wanted Sev to be his brother after all

- Tom is the founder of ‘Dark Art research club’ which Sev joined because his interests in Dark magic, they have great chemistry that Lily secretly shipping them to end up together, she write her best friend fanfic on AO3 as well (lol) and of course its a secret

- Luna lovegood is Severus favorite junior he might not say it out loud but base on Sev wearing Luna’s weird t-shirt/accessories she gave him without complaining more than 2 sentences is enough evidence, he have soft spot for her just like he have for Harry

- Grindelwald was imprisoned and released afterwards because he changed his mindset and joining Hogwarts as Dark Ark defend professor trying to ask second chance from Albus who’s too heartbroken from the past

- spoiler alert: after so many years they became the most famous gay couple of wizarding world known to today (from doom yaoi to healthy old man yaoi yay) this was also the reason Hogwarts is a very welcome place for lgbtqa+

- Victor Krum is Ron’s celebrity crush, when Ron asking for a sign from Krum he was so anxious and Krum think it’s cute. Later in the prom they’re dancing together and after some event they’re deciding to dating

- for Hermione— I didn’t planned her love line yet maybe I might not give her any because I want her to have some business women energy who focus on her goal with mindset ‘success first love later’

- Add more other wizarding school details or maybe new school (my fanon)

Ask-Anything: The Snape-Hardbroom-Hobbes Family: Context And Rules:

Part 1: The Early Years:

Severus Snape and Constance Hardbroom first met back in 1977 as students. Constance’s school-Cackle’s Academy-was visiting Hogwarts for the Spring Term. Over time (and with the secret help of Lily Evans and James Potter), Severus and Constance began a bit of a romance. But, this was short lived. After Constance, Severus, James and Lily had to fight off a Death Eater attack at Hogwarts, Snape was confronted by his Slytherin peers-reminding him of his true loyalties.

 When Constance and the rest of Cackle’s students returned to their Overblown Castle, Severus continued to work with the Dark Arts. As for James and Lily, though they were upset about Severus still being into the Dark Arts, the two couldn’t help but sense the best in him. A feeling James and Lily kept to each other. Even in their last days.

Then came September 1st, 1982. It has almost been a year since Lord Voldemort’s defeat at the cost of James and Lily Potter. The then 22-years-old, Snape worked as Hogwarts’ Potions Master much to his own chagrin. With his own personal demons, Severus proved himself to be unpopular among staff and students alike. He was arrogant, antisocial and outright petty. With him being head of the Slytherin Household, Severus could let his underlings get away with murder. Yet, on this day, Albus Dumbledore announced to all that Cackle’s Academy was going to make a longer visit than last time; from October all the way to July.

Halloween arrived in a flash and Cackle’s Academy made their much awaited arrival. Among the visitors was one of the younger teachers; Constance Hardbroom. Now in a long, black dress, and dark-brown hair wrapped in an extremely tight bun, Severus was surprised to see her again. This was said for Constance as she always thought Severus would never-for any reason-return to Hogwarts after graduating. Not to mention, she was still mad at Severus for not keeping in contact with her as he had promised.

While they had an awkward start, a couple of incidents would drive Constance and Severus to let love bloom. Albeit in strict secrecy. And when July arrived, the pair wrote dozens of letters to each other. The relationship got so serious that marriage was often brought up. 

Given his past and current situations, Severus was reluctant to take such a step. Eventually, Severus would buck up the courage to marry Constance. But not without confessing his Death-Eater ways, his job as Dumbledore’s agent and even what had happened to Lily Evans. While that was a lot for Constance to process, she would decide to marry Severus on August 1, 1983. With retired Minister of Magic, Elphinstone Urquart, officiating the elopement, Albus Dumbledore, Minerva McGonagall, and Amelia Cackle served as witnesses.

At first, the newlyweds were in bliss in spite of having to continue their long-distance romance due to their respective jobs. But, as time went on,  problems would start to resurface. And when it’s discovered that a baby was on the way, a scared Severus put divorce on the table. As a result, a heart-broken Constance decided to put their upcoming baby up for adoption in hopes to give him/her a stable upbringing. Something Constance nor Severus could give.

Throughout the months, Constance would hide away in the Flamel House in France thanks to Dumbledore’s friendship with Nicolas and Perenelle Flamel. Amelia Cackle, Minerva McGonagall, Elphinstone Urquart and later Poppy Pomfrey would be around to help. As for Severus, he would visit when not teaching or spying. Yet, he and Constance would hardly speak with each other. 

Then, on Christmas morning, a son was born; “Nicholas Brian”. Ecstatic as they were to see their son, Severus and Constance forced themselves back to earth. They finally got around to signing both the divorce and adoption papers and gave the nine-day-old newborn to Elphinstone who would give the baby to Kezia and Huw Hobbes.

In his grief, Severus decided to do something drastic; collect his memories in flasks, put those in a box and have Dumbledore obliviate any memories that involved Constance and their son. A task a solemn Dumbledore agreed to do. As for the box of memories, it would be given to Dumbledore and then to the next headmistress, McGonagall to give to Nicholas Brian if he ever arrived at Hogwarts.

Part 2: Resurrections And Reunions:

  In 1998, the Second Wizarding War was fought and won by the Order of the Phoenix. However, among the casualties was none other than Severus Snape. Hated by the Order, it was Harry Potter who would clear the air and explain Snape’s true intentions to the Wizarding World. Yet, Severus had to have his funeral without his corpse for, during the battles, he would be whisked away by an obscure, but dangerous group known as “R”. With most of their former members dead, the remaining party, Verruca Snyde, Patricia Rakepick, Eustace Burke and Kazuhiro Shiratori had managed to escape Azkaban during a 1997 mass breakout. Trying to gain their goal of immortality, the smaller “R” often tried and failed to reach it. Then they came across a peculiar formula that holds to the key to revival. And once finding the body of Severus Snape, they took their chance.

Once the corpse was in their hideout, a concoction was made with the tears of a phoenix, the wings of fairies, the horn of a unicorn, a few plants and the Resurrection Stone. This, the Revival Potion, was what brought Severus Tobias Snape back from the grave with his scars and infamous Death-Mark gone. But this potion came with a cost; with the Resurrection Stone being one of the main properties, Snape’s DNA has been mutated; gaining the Hallow’s powers, he could summon the Heaven-bound at will. All while both of his palms bore the symbol of the Deathly Hallows with the stone emblem being the most pronounced.

Disgusted with what’s been done to him, Severus escaped his captors and lived on his own in the woods of Great Britain. Over time, he created unique potions and mailed them to apothecary shops and St. Mungo’s Hospital under the alias, “Sephtis Surgo”. He would obtain a good portion of wealth as a result, yet remained in isolation. All Severus would have for company were the summoned Dumbledore and Lily Evans.

Then, in the spring of 2006, a potions experiment caused a terrible house fire which would’ve killed Severus had he not been rescued by students of the nearby Cackle’s Academy. As he was cared for by Amelia Cackle and the school nurse, Constance Hardbroom was shocked and lost for words when finding Severus again. Over time, she and Severus had to work to rekindle their troubled flame. Not only that, they would reunite with their long lost son, 22-year-old Nicholas Hobbes of Weirdsister College.

Memories Masterlist

Links Last Checked: May 25th, 2024

Hold Me Now in Hand (ao3) - maraudersaffair Hermione/Snape E, 56k

Summary: Hermione spent years hiding among her books and potions, and not needing anyone except for Ron and Harry.

This changes when Harry asks her to shelter his Auror partner Severus Snape. Someone is trying to kill Snape, and Harry will stop at nothing to protect him.

But Hermione has a problem. Snape’s presence has disrupted her quiet life and now she can’t stop thinking about what it would be like to fuck him.

In Another Life (I Would Make You Stay) (ao3) - aboutmalfoy Draco/Harry T, 112k

Summary: Seven years out from the war, Hermione comes to Harry with a way to undo the lasting damage done to the Wizarding World, and save those once lost. The catch is, only Harry will remember anything differently. When Harry wakes up in the world where Voldemort never came to be, he’ll have to navigate the life he never lived as if he’d been there all along. Except, a version of Harry was there all along—and he may not be so easily overridden.

Memories (ao3) - Grey_Kenaz Albus/Gellert T, 7k

Summary: Albus Dumbledore reflects on memories of past events in search for an answer.

Mindbound (ao3) - aprophecygirl Hermione/Draco E, 21k

Summary: Draco Malfoy, seasoned Mind Healer, has grown accustomed to the banality of human thought. Yet, when Harry Potter arrives, desperate for help, Draco’s world tilts. Hermione Granger, trapped in a mysterious coma, defies all healing attempts. As Draco delves into her consciousness, he encounters multiple incarnations of the girl he used to loathe. As the mission unfolds into a mind-bending journey, Draco confronts the one thing he didn’t prepare for: hope.

Murmurations (ao3) - Maegykie Hermione/Snape M, 286k

Summary: "She feels it in his hand as it brushes a stray curl behind her ear, in his tone, and his lingering kiss. In the smile he saves just for her. She thinks, perhaps, he loves her, even if he does refuse say it."

This isn’t a story about the magic we know. It is a story about the magic found in the every day; in the rustle of trees on the wind, the golden light of dusk in the Summer months, the dance of starling murmurations. It is a love story, yes, but it is more-so a story about healing, about imperfections, about mistakes and forgiveness.

A slow-burning, sometimes flickering, HG/SS tale which begins during Hermione’s “eighth” year at Hogwarts and meanders through a lifetime.

Nearly Lost Things, Carefully Tended (ao3) - SquadOfCats Draco/Harry E, 46k

Summary: Three years after the war, Harry is lost, drifting, and feeling left behind. In an effort to get control of his life, he commits to cleaning out Grimmauld Place top-to-bottom and forcing it to be a home, whether it likes it or not. The rotten old house is stuffed full of antiques, and Harry is shocked to discover none other than Draco Malfoy running the local antique shop. Malfoy is polite -- too polite, and Harry soon finds himself with a mission: to annoy and bother Malfoy with the most hideous, absurd antiques he can find. But along the way, Harry comes to appreciate Draco, his work, and the power of connecting to the people who came before him. It's a hard lesson, but Harry learns that if he wants to build a future, he has to reconnect to his past, and Draco might just be the one to help him do it.

Of Memories and Milk Thievery (ao3) - moonymoment Sirius/Remus, James/Lily T, 57k

Summary: or: Sirius and Remus have been divorced co-parents for four years, and they won't stop terrorising each other. Teddy is sixteen, midway through his GCSE's, and... well, he finds it all to be quite exasperating, really.

Redemption (ao3) - gnrkrystle Hermione/Draco, Parvati/Harry, Theodore/Pansy, + more E, 228k

Summary: As an Unspeakable, Hermione has been tasked with a very complicated case. All the Marked Death Eaters in Azkaban are falling ill - Draco Malfoy and Theo Nott the worst among them. She has to find out why and cure them.

Remain in Light (ao3) - veeagainst Sirius/Remus E, 175k

Summary: What if Sirius Black didn't die? It's been done many times. Here's my take on it.

Secret (ao3) - pangaeaseas Albus/Gellert T, 1k

Summary: Gellert is Albus’s very best secret.

silver memories (ao3) - Space_Samurai Albus/Gellert T, 2k

you were mine (and we never said goodbye) (ao3) - msonlythebrave Regulus/James, Sirius/Remus N/R, 1k

Summary: Regulus had wiped away all of James' memories of their relationship. When he dies, they all come back.

[dewitty1]

Hi, I'm searching for three one shots.

1.- it was about harry and draco getting friends after the war for owls, and harry fall in love so hard that he only talk about draco, and every one around him is like "oh no, is sixt year again" when they are back to hogwarts.

2.- this beginning when harry and dumbledore are back of the crave of horrors with the "horrocrux" and harry was thinking about draco while playing with a peny that the DA uses in fifth year but now he uses with draco to comunicate, they were in a relationship for third year (I think) but they don't talk about feelings until the end, in this albus give the elder wand to draco willingly, and lucius and severus are in a relationship too.

3.- the last one was named "the most desirable bachelor" I think, but I can't find it. It was about draco being the more wanted man in the wizarding World, he was married with pansy for convenience but they get divorced and she was with goyle (or crave, I don't remember), and draco was in a secret relationship with harry and they go out in a party that draco was financiting cause skeeter was being her anoying be as always.

“The past always catches up one way or another”

Thanks for the prompt, anon! Here’s ~600 words of very soft Professor Potter preslashy Drarry. Hope you like it. 💕

Harry doesn't recognise him at first. But here he is, standing in the back of his Care of Magical Creatures class—Draco Malfoy.

"Scorpius, Professor," the boy corrects, though there is a kindly glint in his eye.

"Oh, Jesus. Sorry," Harry apologises, cheeks flushed.

"It's alright. Albus Severus says you've got the memory of a pygmy puff, and—"

"I'll be sure to have words with him," Harry interrupts, wary eyes on his middle child. "Now, class, as you can see"—he gestures to the enclosure behind him—"we're studying hippogriffs today."

Scorpius takes a step back. "My father warned me about this," he mutters, jostling Albus with his elbow.

Harry should have expected the two boys to be friends. They're both in Slytherin and small for their year, which, at their age, is all it takes for friendships to form. Although he can't fathom what they'd talk about; he certainly has nothing to say to Malfoy, even now, except maybe Quidditch—and Albus hates flying.

"We talk about how our mums and das don't live together," Albus explains during spring recess a few months later, porridge-crusted spoon danging from his mouth.

"Not that it's bad," Jamie adds quickly, ever the thoughtful eldest.

"Yeah, it's not bad," Albus agrees. "But nobody else gets it, you know?"

Harry does know. The wizarding world is small and stifling traditional; there'd been maybe one divorce in the last fifty years, before the Malfoy-Greengrass Potter-Weasley doubleheader. It was a literal double header: they'd shared a line on the front page of the Prophet. Rivals, even in marital separation. Jesus. Harry needs a drink, just thinking of it.

"What's wrong, daddy?" Lily asks.

"That's just his face when he thinks about Scorpius's da," Albus says.

"Don't eat with your mouth open," Harry scowls. And then he sighs.

The next week, the boys get caught sneaking into Hogsmeade.

"They'll have detention for three weeks," Minerva says.

"Isn't that a bit much?" Harry protests, despite knowing better than to undermine the Headmistress's authority when he was a faculty member himself.

"One week should suffice," Malfoy agrees.

Minerva purses her lips. And then she says, "One week."

Harry gets up after Draco and watches his robes billow around him as he leaves. It reminds Harry of Snape, except it doesn't, because they're a deep cerulean, with silver detailing. Ravenclaw colours, on a Slytherin. Except Draco has never looked so good.

They say good-bye to their boys on separate ends of the staircase and then descend the stairs simultaneously, though not together. Harry fumbles over what to say. He thinks maybe he'll blame Scorpius. Say something like, "Albus would never, he's an absolute angel," which is a total lie, but would rile Draco right up. And then it'll be like old times again. An old-fashioned fistfight through the hallowed halls of Hogwarts. Harry doesn't think it's a terrible idea; it's not like they can ever be friends. Sooner or later, the past will catch up to them, and they'll be back at each other's throats. Harry's only speeding things up a bit.

"Our children are absolute dunderheads," Draco says, instead.

Harry recalls the boys in the office, red-faced and squirming in overstuffed chairs; their glue-on moustaches drooped pathetically over gaping mouths. He can't help but laugh.

It's a beautiful day outside. The sky is an endless expanse of blue, and Harry's dizzy marvelling over how big it is, all of it. It's hard to imagine that people have ever died on these grounds; not when the now is so bright, Harry can barely open his eyes.

"I've brooms back in the hut," Harry offers in a jumble, words tripping over each other in their rush to get out, "The new Cometheads; they're practically weightless. You've got to try them."

"I haven't flown in years," Draco says, distant. But he follows.

Teachers Pet- Prologue

All chapters

Its your sixth year here at Beauxbatons, but your mother has just informed you that your parents are getting divorced and you will be leaving your dad, meaning you have to move and transfer to Hogwarts. You were finally starting to feel grown and now everything is changing, but unbeknownst to you, the lonely potions professor will capture your heart and hold it for many years to come.

A Severus Snape fan fiction.

A/n hello, welcome to my first harry potter story, i'm going to start by saying all my knowledge is from the movies, some things/timelines may not line up correctly/aren't completely accurate or not mentioned but its to go with the flow of the story! thank you and enjoy!

I continued packing and sorting through all my belongings in my room while listening to music, attempting to drown out the cries and yells coming from downstairs. My mother had just announced to my father that she was leaving him and taking me with her. He was going to be left with nothing but the house and his things, I was okay with that though, he was nothing slight of an asshole. I sat down staring at a picture of me and my older sister when we were little, sitting in the same dusty plaid green sofa that sat in my living room at this very moment. I sighed as I briskly wiped a single tear that slid down my cheek, not wanting to be seen, I knew that was silly and that it was me simply being human, but my parents never showed much emotion around me, and my father often mocked those who expressed them, calling them weak minded for grieving or even crying for that matter. And my mother would often leave the room the minute she felt anything other than joy or anger, but she never fooled anyone, we always knew she walked away to cry silently alone. I remember vividly the first time I saw my mother cry. I was 7 and her father had passed away a couple days prior and we all went for a walk downtown, there was a candlelight vigil for some random old guy, but he had died from the same thing that took my grandfather from her. He wasn't around much when she was younger and he never bothered to meet my sister or I but I knew she still held tightly on the fond memories of him from when she was a girl. She began to walk away and me being clueless followed her, it was then I saw her taking out a handkerchief and wiping a few stray tears away. I reached my little hand up and rested it on her shoulder and told her it's ok, but she shrugged it off and told me to go back with my dad and keep walking. That's when I learned to just leave her alone anytime she was upset. I had never seen my father cry in my entire life until a couple months ago when his father was then taken from him, and even then it was only a few tears at his funeral which were quickly whisked away and never to be seen again. It was no surprise though.

I didn't dare go downstairs at the moment I knew my presence would only make things worse. Even amidst all this chaos neither of them shed a tear, which led me to believe they never really cared for each other the way parents were supposed to. It hurt watching the family being broken apart but what hurt the most was leaving Beauxbatons. I had just begun my sixth year there and I was so excited, I was almost done, I loved this school it was perfect for a girl like me, and I was dreading moving schools, but when I found out I was enrolling in Hogwarts I did a lot of research which wasn't easy, luckily I knew someone who worked there, or shall I say ran the whole thing. Albus Dumbledore, also known as my godfather, I know it may seem weird for me to have ever attended Beauxbatons, but my sister went there and my mother wanted me to follow in her footsteps, she wasn't happy about me transferring either, but she knew we needed to get far from my father.

   I got up off my creaky bed and gently waved my wand in the air and finished packing everything up, setting the picture frame in last and closing my suitcases. I stood still for a moment thinking over all the memories I had in this house, I had lived  here as long as I could remember and I was devastated to leave it. Especially in the care of my useless father. I tucked my h/c hair out of my face and behind my ear and muttered a spell which lifted my suitcases for me and began to quietly walk out of my room pausing in the doorway to listen for the muffled voices of my parents, I waited about three minutes and heard nothing assuming they either tired out from arguing or just got so mad they both stormed away. I turned to look into my room for one last time, admiring the homey feel it gave off, the light grey walls that I had just painted a year prior because I wanted a more "mature look" as opposed to the bright blue that had remained prior from when I was 10. I swallowed the lump in my throat and closed the door behind me, walking down the rickety stairs that creaked with every step, my luggage following close behind. I ran my hand along the railing, taking in every chip and crack from many times sliding down them with my sister.

As I approached the living room I noticed my father lazily plopped on the couch looking over a newspaper, visibly tired from the arguing he had just got done doing. "Where's mother?'' I asked in a small tone, careful not to startle him. "She's loading her stuff into the car...did you know she was going to take that too?" he asked with a clear tone of anger. "No actually I didn't." I said smirking sarcastically and heading out the front door. "Hey" I said with a small smile as I approached the car. My mother was hurriedly loading her stuff in and asking me to do as many spells as I could to fit it all in the small car. She didn't answer as she continued loading stuff in. "Need any help?" I asked using the same spells on my luggage and putting it in the front seat where my feet would go. "No y/n right now I just need your father to not be a fucking asshole" she spoke in a harsh but obviously exhausted tone. "Ha well only in our dreams right '' I said laughing slightly trying to lighten the mood. She just ignored it and shut the trunk of the car with a loud slam. "Keep slamming shit and you won't have a car to take from me!" I heard my dad holler from the house. I turned and faced the door where his voice boomed from and looked back at my mom, "Anything else we need?" I asked politely. "No that's all now go say goodbye I'll be waiting here in the car." she said sternly and got into the car without a second thought starting it up and waiting. I quickly went up the steps into my home and walked into my fathers line of view. "We are leaving now." I said with my hands on my hips staring at him as he continued to read the paper. "Mm" was all he said, I continued to stand there staring him down. "Is there anything else you want to say before we go?" I asked my patience growing thin as he continued to read the paper, slowly flipping the pages of the thin material and ignoring my questions. "Okay , well If not I'm going to go, hopefully I don't get in an accident and DIE on the way there" I said sarcastically seeing if it would lead him to saying even a simple "goodbye". No answer. "Ok, bye father. I am sorry things aren't different." I said as I walked away, as I passed the mantle on the fireplace I noticed a picture my mother had conveniently left behind, it was a family photo from a trip we all took when I was about 13, I picked it up and looked at it closely. We all looked so happy, there was still light in my eyes and love in my parents'. I looked over my shoulder at my father seeing he still had his nose in the paper and I put the picture in my bag I had draped on my shoulder.

I heard my mom honking the horn and looked up at the open door, I looked one last time back at my father before heading out to the front, closing the door behind me and heading down the step. I climbed  in the passenger seat and shut the door putting my bag in my lap and double checking I had my wand. I took the letter I had received from Dumbledore when he found out I was transferring and reviewed over the helpful words he had written to get me familiar with how things worked here. I studied the steps to get there and what to expect upon arrival. Since school had already started three weeks ago I knew I was going to have some catching up to do. I turned the paper over and muttered "aparecium" to myself to reveal the map of Hogwarts he put on the back so I wouldn't stick out like a first year who is lost and has no idea where anything is, even though I didn't have a clue.

" Are you excited?" my mother asked as we continued to drive to the train station. "Not particularly" I said looking out the window as we drove farther and farther away from the town I had spent my whole life in and grown to love. "I think you will find that you love Hogwarts, it's a lovely school according to Albus" she said, trying to get me to be more positive about the situation, but I just continued to stay silent. "Look y/n I know this is hard, it's not easy for me either, but this is a good thing, it's a new chapter for us, and you are going to meet so many new witches and wizards and you're going to make a lot of new memories!" she said looking over at me smiling. "I doubt it," I said trying to focus on anything else but the current situation. "Well I tried if you don't want to see this as a good thing fine, but I wasn't going to stick around with that dirt bag father of yours, I needed to make a choice on what's best for us." She said a hint of anger in her tone at my relentless and stubborn attitude. "I know I'm just sad," I said honestly as we approached the train station. I began to feel a nervous tickle in my chest, and not a good one, not only had I never gone through platform 9 ¾ but I had never even ridden a train. I mean it can't be too scary. Maybe it was the being alone part. "Ok we are here, are you ready?" my mother said parking and smiling at me. "Fuck no."

A pinch of her Luck

Minerva McGongall was a kind and humble person. Growing up she always showed big pride in her Actions whenever she stood up for someone else or sometimes even herself. But her Pride never took over her humbleness. Her sweet ability to cherish the small things in life that felt way greater than they were to anybody else around her. She was able to see what people could turn into. What they could grow to be. That’s what has gotten her the Position as the head of her House. Everyone could tell that she was a true Gryffindor, her actions never proved them wrong.

,,And again! Gryffindor won the House Cup! Minerva, you really did a good Job as their Mentor.“ Slughorn, the Head of Slytherin gratulated her. Smiling she just raised her Glas as his clumpy Hand patted her shoulder slightly.

,,You need to spill the Tea on what’s your trick! Tell me or I´ll get some Veritaseum.“ He joked before he laughed and turned to Albus to get another Glas of wine. Knowing that everyone was having a good time and there was no bad blood because Gryffindor had won again she felt the most secure than ever. She wasn’t surronded by colleagues she thought while watching them celebrate with her in that red decorated room. They grew to become her closest friends.

,,Let´s raise our Glas one last time before we can call it a night and Classes begin next week!“ Albus her dearest Friend of all solemnly announced as he rose his Glas towards the sky. Her Smile was glued to her lips and - she didn’t let anyone see it - small tears of joy may have slipped her eyes. Silently she watched the Scene while wishing to be able to give back all the Joy and Love she always and steady was receiving at Hogwarts. If she could even share just a pinch of her Luck it would be enough.

After a Sunday filled with Headache from the party of the night before she prepared everything for her upcoming Transfiguration classes. Slughorn had brought her a Potion to ease her Pain was she was politely declining. Minerva always preferred to just ´sit it out´. And so it came that she just fulfilled all her tasks of the day until she drank her last cup of tea of the day and went to bed early. Knowing she wasn’t able to fall asleep right away anyways. The Fact that there were new Gryffindors and Students arriving at Hogwarts tomorrow filled her guts with Excitement. Also seeing what all the Students have learned and experienced over their summer break was gladden her. Who could resent her? She was still a young witch and a even younger Professor. Caring for them as if they were her younger siblings or sometimes even her own children. She simply loved her Job.

Her Monday was as bright as she imagined it to be. All the new Students were already impressing her with their different heritages and Experiences. To be truthful, she already knew some of them. Great Wizarding Familys were part of Hogwarts and every year she got to get known to more of them. After greeting a lot of them she made her way up to her classes. As the freshly arrived Students still had a few days off to explore the great castle and getting known to each other she had enough time to catch up with everyone who was just returning to the School.

Everyone was happily reporting about their summer. Mostly filled with Fun, their family and friends and some of them even prepared themselves for some of the classes since they were so excited to come back. Her chest filled itself with Happiness again, this was the most beautiful Live she could imagine herself living.

,,And what about you Professor McGonagall?“ A young Ravenclaw asked her in response of how everyone spent their Summer. Grinning she pretended to think about a fitting answer while her pointing finger tapped her chin.

,,Hmmm.. Actually I was just eating ice cream aaaalll day long and read all of my favourite books over and over again.“ Minerva admitted and watched them chuckle as they didn’t seem to believe her. They couldn’t imagine her being just silly all summer long. But she was and no, she wasn’t regretting anything. As mentioned, she was having the best time.

After another class she had to watch Professor Slughorn storm into her class.

,,Minerva! She did it again! Miss Finnigan blew up a whole cauldron filled with ageing Potion. Can you quickly watch my Students before they have to witness me as a grandpa.“

Covering her mouth she nodded. His hair was already turning grey. ,,Of course. Take Miss Finnigan with you to the Hospital Wing.“ Almost choking on her laughter she hurried to the Dungeons where the Class was already awaiting someone to take the lead of the class.

,,As I just got informed that there was a little accident happing I suggest that we’ll make sure everyone cleans their tables, okay? After that you may be dismissed from your Potions Class for today.“ Happy chattering filled the Room quickly before everyone got up to clean. Minervas eyes tried to over see the whole room which seemed to be impossible but luckily everything went alright. After the almost everyone was gone she sat down on the Desk to have a look into the Potions Book. She never had a very skilled Potion Knowledge so it was interesting to fresh it up. A almost inaudible whisper made her look up. Severus Snape, a young Slytherin Student stood in front of her. Holding out his Hand, showing her a small vial. Confused she raised her brows while laying down the Book.

,,Dear, what is that?“ He wasn’t looking up but kept on mumbling. ,,Ageing Potion. I finished it when the Cauldron exploded. Can you pass it to Professor Slughorn?“ Taking the Potion in her Hand she was clearly surprised to say the least. It took a while to brew a potion, especially at this young age and he managed it to brew it within the first 20 Minutes of the Class?

,,I must admit-“ Clearing her throat she set the Potion aside. ,,You are very skilled, do you know that?“ Severus just slightly raised his shoulders only to let them fall down a few seconds later. Sensing that something was odd she pressed her lips together for a second.

Getting up she made her way to the classroom door after she was assured that everyone besides the both of them has left the class already. Walking back she watched him standing there. His slim figure was almost unnoticeable since he was acting like he was invisible.

,,Mister Snape, would you look at me for a second?“ Quickly he glanced up angry and hissed: ,, Don’t call me that. My Name is Severus.“ Understanding she gasped before apologising.

,,I´m Sorry Severus. But would you look at me?“ As he wasn’t answering she was just patiently sitting down on one for the students desks pulling out a second chair while silently inviting him. As she asked his class how their summer was everyone was being loud and excited but him. At first she wasn’t thinking too much about it. He was always a bit shy and kept it private, which was totally fine, don’t get her wrong, but this time it simply felt odd.

Severus took a while before following her invitation and sitting down on the old wooden chair next to her. ,,I know that I’m just an old Witch and I probably don’t know all your struggles but I may assure you that i´ll be always be there for you. I can listen to you, talk with you or if you like just be there for you because I care for you. Do you understand that?“ After a few seconds the dark haired boy dared to slightly raise his head. A big blue Mark was covering his left eye. Trying not to gasp or ask sudden questions she smiled slightly.

,,Thank you, Professor McGonagall.“ She could see his lips which were cut on one side quiver. And before she knew it the young Slytherin, who was just a Kid still, hugged her. His Tears came flooding and he wetted her shoulder quickly but she didn’t mind as she just patted his back.

,,It’s okay, I´m here for you.“ She said softly. What a pressure must lay on his heavy heart? She didn’t dare to imagine it. A small sigh escaped her lips. He must’ve been so ashamed of it that he didn’t dared to look her in the eyes.

,,If you want to I can use a spell to decrease it.“ Sniffing he let go of her only so his red puffy eyes could look at her and his dark head could nod.

,,Please, make it go away. Help me get away from there.“ Nodding again she carefully pushed a small strain of black hair behind his ear to look at it closely. She had to keep her facade tightly so he wouldn’t be able to notice how his cry for help was breaking her small heart. Casting the Spell for his eye she repeated it for his cut Lip. But as she was intending to lay her wand aside he stopped her by shoving up his sleeve. Blue Marks in form of big hands were facing the surface of his skin. At first she opened her mouth, trying to ask a question but she quickly bid her Lip. He would talk to her when he was ready, she reminded herself. Healing his Wounds she couldn’t get her mind of the Pain he must go through. He was till so young. Looking up as she was done for good now she tried to look for the right words.

,,You can always talk to me, do you know that?“ And for the first time since she was teaching him he smiled slightly towards her. His relief was visible.

,,Thank you. I always feel better while I’m back at Hogwarts.“ He admitted before grabbing his Bag and asked her with a small gesture to leave. With a nod she dismissed him and watch him leave only to turn back around after he was gone.

,,I do too, Kiddo.“

Months passed and she knew that the Moment would come. The Moment that would break her heart. Christmas Break was coming around and as Severus, who grew really close to her, wasn’t heading home for these few days she knew she had to do something. Actually she still went back Home on the Holidays as her Mother was always preparing a big feast for the whole family but this year Minerva politely declined.

,,I have so much work to do. I think I won’t be able to make it. But I promise you that i´ll be there on New Years Eve.“ She wrote in one of her Letters a few weeks ago.

Making her way down to the big table she saw Severus shortly raising his Hand before a let his quick smile fade again. She greeted him in return and sat down next to Albus who was now eyeing her.

,,You two bonded, didn’t you?“ Smiling she nodded. After what had happened on the first day of School she had talked with Albus about it for hours. Albus was a honourable man, she thought. After she told him he quickly took the Matter in his Hands and made sure that People from The Order would take care of the issue.  To be exact they helped Severus Mother, a young thin dark haired Lady, to divorce from her abusive husband.

Of course, Severus wasn’t a dumb Boy, nor was he foolish to think that it was someone else but Minerva who was responsible for his whole life changing for the better in this short time. She was being a friend when he had none.

Smiling she looked over to Albus. ,,Do you think he’ll know we got him the new Potion Book?“ Chuckling he nodded while the both of them watched Severus unwrapping his first Christmas Present that Minervas Owl just brought him.

,,Of course he will. I mean you wrapped it in Gryffindor House colours. His Mother is a Slytherin too. So why would he think it was someone else but his favourite Teacher?“ Shrugging her Shoulders she laughed too. Seeing the little Boy this happy made her heart swell.

- As the Summertime came around Minerva smiled towards the Teenager in front of her. He had already packed his Suitcase and waited for her.

,,I´m sure you will love Scotland.“ She assured him while putting on one of her cloaks. ,,Are you ready?“ Severus smiled widely before taking her arm and they both appartated from Cokeworth where she picked Severus up from his Mothers House to Scotland. The origin Home of Minerva.

It was obvious that they didn’t only bonded but became great friends. That’s why Minerva invited the now aged Slytherin to visit her Hometown and bond with well known and appreciated Potion Master Friends of hers. But that wasn’t everything. Eileen Snape, Severus Mother, was about to follow them too. She would follow them after the first week of the summertime break since she couldn’t take vacation earlier from her new job.

She hoped that she would be able to help him discover what he’d like to do after his graduation also Minerva knew that they never went on a vacation before and how excited Severus was even though he wasn’t really admitting it. So it was a win-win Situation.

,,Set your Luggage down next to the Stairs.“ She introduced him to the small House. ,,I´ll show you around in a minute.“ She wasn’t paying any more Attention as she was already kneeling down and petted a red haired cat next to her.

,,Hello, my good boy. How have you been?“ She purred and made silly faces. ,,Severus, come here. I want you to meet Frank. He was my Grandmothers Cat.“ As Severus entered the living room again he made a small gesturing bow towards Frank. ,,It’s my pleasure, Mr. Frank. My Name is Severus Snape.“ Afterwards he carefully kneeled down to let him sniff on his hand and finally pet him.

- The Weeks in Scotland were passing by so quickly Minerva almost couldn’t believe it. Severus was literally blooming. After meeting Minervas Friends he changed his vision of his own future almost daily. From Potions Master to shop owner, from Auror to Healer. He was impressed by all the ability of Magic. To be honest Minerva felt the same. She got easily excited by such things too and if live would offer her the chances she’d try almost every Job there was to try. But by heart she knew that she’d always come back to Hogwarts, it simply had become her passion. That’s what she hoped for Severus to find too. His own Passion. But it wasn’t only Severus who was growing. Eileen was turning into another woman. A independent, strong and happy woman who supported her Son in every way possible. Knowing she would miss this Summer deeply she instantly invited them over to Christmas Dinner in Scotland next Christmas so they could celebrate it together. Scotland wasn’t just Minervas Home anymore. It was a Home for her beloved friends as well.

-

Sorrow was laying on her Chest as she walked towards the Teachers Room. Today was the day. Her weak knees felt more shaky than ever now, who could resent her? She was being a well aged Lady by now and a even older aged Professor as well. So well aged that it had become her last year at Hogwarts by now. Entering the Teachers room she looked at the green Decorations hanging around. Her Lips were pressed into a thin line as she looked over the small crowd of people before she set next to her favourite one.

,,At least I won´t go down without a fight.“ She sniffed before looked in those endless dark eyes.

,,I wouldn’t have anticipated it otherwise, Aunty.“ Seeing her Lips quiver he quickly pulled her close. Hugging him tightly she still was overwhelmed by this Man. 

,,I always knew that you’d become the great wizard that you are today, Severus. I Knew what you were able to become. Life was tough but so are you.“ Letting go of him she saw his glossy eyes and laughed lightly. She would be forever thankful for being able to watch and help him grow up. He had become Family to her.

,,Let´s raise our Glas one last time before we can call it a night and Classes begin next week!“ She repeated Albus words while also dedicating this to him. Time has changed a lot. She has lost many good friends but she would always repeat everything in the exact same way. Not because of her own many victories but because of her favourite student who was able to change the wizarding world. And despite her temporary Despair and Worries she never lost her faith in him.

,,For Slytherin and their Head of House Professor Snape and our beloved friend Minerva McGonagall the best head of house Gryffindor has ever had!“ Slughorn proudly announced and his festive Voice cracked at the End. The Man who now looked like a exact image like the one Minerva had seen decades ago, thanks to the ageing Potion that blew up, raised his Glas and everyone copied him. Scanning the room Minerva smiled proudly, no one could ever be as lucky as she was while being surrounded by all her Friends and Family.

He stayed away from other people and he did what he wanted. And if he felt like he was looking through a window at everyone else, that was alright, because he didn't need them anyway. Until Harry Potter moved in across the street, that is. Suddenly, just looking through the window wasn't enough for Severus anymore.

azyxy wrote Trying not to think [Hermione/Teddy | Explicit] She couldn't even remember the last time her and Ron had left the lights on during sex, let alone the last time he’d complimented her, so watching Teddy struggle to keep his hands to his side while she stepped out of her dress was quite the ego boost.

mindabbles wrote Puddlemere’s New Man [Oliver/Teddy | Explicit] Teddy is willing to put in the work. He’s willing to practice twice as hard as anyone else, except that no one can out-work Oliver — a fact that Teddy finds he doesn’t mind in the least.

Harry is overwhelmed, barely having any time to grieve, he keeps being recognised in the street and strangers ask too much of him. He finds solace in the Muggle world, finally exploring who he is without the threat of death, he finds himself in a Muggle kink club watching Severus Snape tying up a young man, and he wants.

And Harry finds he doesn't mind Scorpius' constant company one bit.

In a Happier World, A Continuation

This AU is one of choices.

In 1971, the sorting hat chose to interfere with fate and sort Peter Pettigrew into Slytherin. Because of that, Kingsley Shacklebolt becomes the fourth of the marauders, a lynx animagus nicknamed Tufttail. He bring sensibility to the group, but he also brings ideas. He never lets James and Sirius use their pranks for bad, but he makes their pranks a lot grander in a way.

In 1975, Regulus Black leaves his family home with his brother. Because of that, he never becomes a Death Eater. He learns what love feels like, and finds it in two people: James Potter and Lily Evans, the loves of his life.

In 1976, Sirius Black never sends Severus Snape to the Whomping Willow. He instead tips off Professor McGonagall, saying that he thinks Snape will try to sneak out that night. When she catches him, he becomes angry, swearing that the marauders are up to something. He goes on for days about how Sirius Black should be in detention, not him. After hearing the full story from Sirius herself, Lily Evans decides to end her and Snape's friendship. Remus learns of the events as well, and thanks Sirius for making sure that his secret remained secret. They get together soon after.

In 1978, Fleamont and Euphemia Potter, grateful to Mary MacDonald for finding a cure to Dragon Pox, open up their home as a safe house for the members of the order. Mary and Dorcas move there first, as being muggleborns make them the biggest targets. Marlene McKinnon chooses to move her family there when she hears of the Death Eaters plan to kill them. Lily Evans moves there after the disaster of her sister's wedding.

In 1980, after hearing a prophecy, a different prophecy than the one you know, Albus Dumbledore chooses to go after Tom Riddle himself. Because of that, they both die. Minevra McGonagall becomes Headmistress. Lily Evans replaces Slughorn as the Potions professor. Remus Lupin becomes the official DADA professor.

In 1981, Narcissa Black divorces her husband, wins custody of her son, and moves in with her sister, Andromeda, along with her brother-in-law and niece. Bellatrix Lestrange, on the other hand, is imprisoned when caught trying to enter the Longbottom home.

In 1991, Harry Potter says goodbye to his younger sisters, Mia and Ari. He gets onto the train with Ron Weasley, Neville Longbottom, and Draco Malfoy, all of whom have been his friends for just about forever. All of them are sorted into Gryffindor.

In 1998, Harry Potter graduates from Hogwarts with those same friends, and many more. His sisters are 2nd years, one in Slytherin, one in Ravenclaw. His Uncles Remus and Sirius just had a son named Teddy, with the help of Tonks, who volunteered to be their surrogate. His boyfriend of three years, Draco, has lined up an internship at St. Mungos, and the two of them have already placed a bid on a flat.

In 2001, Harry Potter says yes when Draco Malfoy asks about adoption. They foster for a while, seeing as people are not too keen on them adopting, but finally, in 2003, they adopt a four year old girl named Beatrice (Bessie for short).

In June of 2018, Beatrice Potter, a Hufflepuff, graduates from Hogwarts herself. A week later, she is the maid-of-honor at her fathers' wedding, and her 6 year old brother, Thomas, is the ring bearer. And she could not be any happier.

This AU is one of choices and how just a few can change the world

Coming Back To You

     Lily knew that this would be a bad idea, that it was dangerous and it would blow their cover completely. But she had to see him, she didn’t feel like she had any other option. She felt like something was clawing at her from the inside, something that was leaving scratch marks on her rib cage and scars on her muscles, something that would eventually tear open her skin and crawl out through her chest. She hadn’t seen him in six months, they agreed not to. They agreed that for the safety of Harry and Aldora, the children would stay with her while she was living with Remus until everything could be sorted out. They had no end to their timeline, no final step in their plan, just the continuous motion of “what if‘s“ and “maybes“.

     As far as the rest of the world knew, Lily and Severus had decided to split up six months ago. The separation hadn’t been legalized, mostly because Lily didn’t know how she would handle divorce even in times like this. But they were officially separated in the eyes of everyone else. She and her children had moved their things out of their house, moving in with her best friend, while her husband moved back to Spinners End, a house he clearly so loathed. But she could understand why, there was any reason in the world why he moved. Maybe he could not stand to be in their home without them, maybe he didn’t want to get caught living a happy life if death eaters should stop by the house and see the pictures of them with their children or them as a happily married couple. That was a part of the reason that she had moved out as well, though the house still existed and was still technically there’s, though now it gathered dust and no one lived there. It still held there furniture, other pictures on the walls, but most of their belongings had been removed. They made a promise that one day when the war was over and everything was safe they would all moved back, but today was not that day.

     Lily was sitting in her room in Remus’s house, playing with her wedding ring and her engagement ring between her fingers. She wasn’t allowed to wear them in public anymore, so she kept them in a small box on her nightstand where she kept the rings that were given to her by James, all of it now hidden in shame. She missed Severus so much, the split absolutely life ruining. Everything had been so perfect for such a long time. After they got married everything seemed to fit perfectly. They had moved into their own house, one with a big enough yard for Harry, one with an office for both of them where they could work and make potions, and an extra room that eventually belonged to Aldora once she was born. It seemed like so long ago. Harry was 15 now, almost to man, and Aldora was almost 8 years old. Where had the time gone? Where did their happy life go? It all came tumbling down in the Dark Lord came back and ripped their family apart.

     She didn’t think she would ever be able to forgive Albus for insisting that Severus go back to working for the Dark Lord. Logically, she understood why it had to happen. The Order of the Phoenix needed their in, needed their spy, and she knew what the death eaters would do to him if they found out he was a traitor and a double agent. She knew that he had to lie about the reason for their marriage, make it seem as if they had only been married for his self preservation and that he held no love for her son, she wondered if perhaps he lied about loving his own daughter. She never asked him that. She never wanted to hurt him that way by asking. With the return of the Dark Lord, Lily’s fear returned as well, causing her to eventually start waking up several times a night to check the locks again, checking on her children as they slept even though they were no longer babies and were perfectly capable of sleeping in their rooms by themselves without a bodyguard. Sudden noises began to startle her again, even so much as the phone ringing. And then… Her nightmares came back.

     Her mind was once more flooded with images of Halloween, her first husband dying in front of her. It had made her restless, it made her sick, and her life was beginning to dwindle miserably. Severus had noticed the change, and noticed how worried she had become about their children. She spent all of her time worrying about Harry whenever he would go back to school, almost hovering over Aldora in fear that she would wander off and get taken by death eaters. They both knew that she would never feel like they were truly safe with Voldemort around, especially if he and his followers would continue to call upon her husband. They never wanted to take the chance that perhaps one of them would come by the house, that the children would see, that their lives will be put in danger. So they had to make the most painful decision possible, and they had to separate. As far as the world knew, the two of them had been in an unhappy marriage for a long time, that they no longer fit together. Even their children had been lied to, telling them that sometimes people just don’t work out. If only they knew.

     She knew the rumors had begun to fly, that several people had whispered within the wizarding community that she simply got tired of being with someone who wasn’t the perfect James Potter, several other people saying she had finally come to her senses and divorced a death eater, so many rumors that seem to keep quite a few witches and wizards busy. She did her best to ignore them, did her best to hide her children from them, but she can only do so much for Severus. They had said their last goodbye in private, promising not to see each other unless they absolutely had to. Any contact they had between the two of them was had through Albus, the only one who knew the truth now. Even Sirius and Remus were under the impression that she had truly left him, she couldn’t risk bringing them into it and putting them in more danger, no matter how much she trusted them. And whatever contact was had with Albus as their middleman was usually about business or the  children. Letting Severus know that they were safe and well, letting him know that Lily was fine. And Albus would do the same, letting her know the Severus was safe. There was only so much communication they could have through another person, especially when she partially blamed him for losing her husband to begin with. He seemed to have that effect on her life, putting her husbands in dangerous situations. He had put James in a situation where he had become a target, both of them had, along with her son. And it landed her first husband dead. She would be damned if that happened to Severus, she would be damned if she lost him because of another man’s fight. But she knew it wasn’t just another man’s fight, it was all of their fight. Voldemort had killed James, took her sons father away from him, and she would rather die here and now than let Severus be taken away as James had been.

     Her thoughts of Severus had brought tears to her eyes, swallowing thickly as she thought about the last time she saw him. They had not so much as called each other on the phone or written a letter, not wishing to get caught. It had been six months now, six long and lonely months of trying to learn to sleep in bed alone again, so her nightmares had only gotten worse once she was sleeping in bed alone. She held the rings tightly in her hand before walking over to her dresser, putting the rings back in their box and sliding on her shoes. She couldn’t take this anymore. She knew that she had to keep up with the illusion of the separation, she knew that. But she had to see him, just this once. She had already bent or broken so many rules in life as it was, wasn’t he worth bending and breaking a few more?

     She wrote a note for Remus, who she sure was out with Sirius or out on order business, telling him that she needed some air and some time to herself. She wrote him not to worry and that the children were asleep in their room, the two of them having to share since he didn’t have a big enough house for all of them to have rooms of their own. He had already been such a sweetheart that he gave his room to her, choosing to sleep on the couch. Back when James had died, they used to sleep in the same bed. All three of them actually, Harry would lay on his chest or between them and she would curl up to his side as if seeking warmth and protection, and it was during that year after James‘s death, that the two of them truly began to grow close. But he knew that it was different now, it was over a decade later and she had been married since then, they couldn’t sleep in a bed together anymore. It wasn’t that either of them thought anything would happen between them, they had no sexual or romantic chemistry whatsoever. But he could tell that she was still in love with Severus, even if she didn’t voice it. And he knew that if he got close with her, even platonically, it would only make her miss him more. So he slept on the couch like a gentleman, letting her put her things in his room and make it her own, while her children slept in his guest bedroom. He was a good friend, a great one actually. And she loved him dearly for his kindness.

     After writing her letter to Remus, Lily threw on her coat and made her way down the hallway, having left the letter on her dresser. She stood quietly outside the door at the front of the hall, listening to see if she could hear anything inside. She could hear are the telltale signs that her kids were sleeping, even and gentle breathing from Harry and light snoring from Aldora, little Dora was the only one of the two that snored. She smiled softly to herself, hopeful that one day the world would be a safer place for her children. She hoped that the war would be won by the right side and her family could be brought back together again, and seeing her husband wouldn’t happen every six months under the cover of darkness, that her love would not be buried away in lies and she wouldn’t be sleeping in someone else’s house. While she may have been filled with anxiety and pain, above all things She was filled with a hope and bravery that was very very Gryffindor of her. She knew that she would fight until her very last breath to make this world safer for her children and to be able to go home to her husband, to get them all out alive. She would die before she ever gave up on any of them, she knew that to be true.

     She pulled the hood of her jacket up over her head, zipping it up as she quietly made her way to the front door. She pulled her wand out of her sleeve and she unlocked the door and made her way out, using magic to quietly lock it behind her. She slid the wooden rod back up her sleeve as she began to slowly walk down the street, as if having a quiet mental argument with herself. She stuffed her hands into the pockets of her coat and quietly wrestled with herself as she made it to the end of the driveway. This was the right thing wasn’t it? This was what they should be doing? Was she doing the wrong thing here? Was he right when he said any contact at all was wrong? But really, she knew that he was right, that this was dangerous. But what was life worth without a little bit of danger? What was life worth if she couldn’t even see him just this one time? She had held out for six months already, did that mean anything at all?

     Next thing she knew, she had pulled her wand out of her sleeve and had apparated from the end of the driveway of her temporary home to the end of the dark alleyway of Spinners End. She never liked it here, it was dark and creepy, even during the daylight somehow it always was. But even more so, it was terrifying at night. The last time she had looked at the clock it had been almost midnight, so she knew it must be almost 12:30 by now, she wondered if he would be sleeping. She wouldn’t put it past him to be up all night, sitting in thought or drowning himself in potions and spells. He always worked too hard. As she slid her wand back up her sleeve, stuffing her hands inside of her pockets and making sure to keep her head down low, she wondered if he was taking care of himself. He was always bad at taking care of himself, remembering to eat when he should or to drink enough water, to take proper care of himself when he was sick or go to sleep when he needed rest. She wondered if he was bothering to clean his house, if he was wallowing in filth that matched his sadness. She wondered if he missed her taking care of him, she wondered if he noticed the difference.

     When she finally made it outside of the house, she simply stood there in the darkness, staring at the front door. Her eyes were full of tears as she stared at the door, worrying her bottom lip between her teeth. A more logical part of her brain told her that even after six months of not speaking, that he would still love her. If they once went years without speaking after their fall out as teenagers and he still loved her even then, the six months wouldn’t change that. But she couldn’t help wondering, couldn’t help being afraid. She couldn’t help being afraid that six months around death eaters and without her and their children around, that he had changed. She found herself afraid that maybe in that time he had stopped loving her, that he didn’t miss her. She knew he would be upset to see her, because it was dangerous. But would he be upset to see her because he didn’t really want to see her at all? Because he hadn’t been thinking of her, because he was glad to be rid of her? If she knocked on the door, would she find a husband who missed her and still loved her or would she find a man who was angry she bothered to come back at all?

     She sniffled, reaching out to wipe at her eyes where tears had already started to slowly escape. She couldn’t think like that, she owed him more than that, more credit than that. She had to give him a chance, to see how he felt instead of just assuming. She took a deep breath, summoning all of her Gryffindor bravery and walked up to the front door, raising her hand as if to knock on it but hesitating in the air, clenching her fist a little bit tighter as she knocked on the door, hard enough to be heard through the house but not so hard the neighbors would hear her in the night. She closed her eyes tightly as she pulled her hand away from the door, rubbing her fingertips against her empty ring finger where her wedding ring had one sat, her hand still missing the familiar feeling. She had to hope, she had to pray, that when he opened the door, she would see the man who loved her and not one who regretted her.

2018 HP Next Gen Fest Anonymous Masterlist

Here is the complete Anonymous Masterlist for the 2018 @hp-nextgen-fest​!

Reveals will be going up this Friday on November 30, so there are still a few days left to make your way through any entries you might have missed. Don't forget to leave some comments on these amazing creations to let the authors and artists know how much you've enjoyed their hard work! :D

ART

Sick Day [James Sirius/Teddy & Albus | General] Albus insists he’s not sick, James and Teddy say otherwise.

Every Christmas From Now On [Albus Severus/Scorpius | General] While decorating their flat for the holidays, the new couple discusses where they should spend Christmas day.

Deep Roots, New Growth [Draco & Teddy Gen | General] With Draco’s help, Teddy learns about his Black Family ancestry and helps to restore the damaged tapestry.

Ebb Tide [Rose/Padma | Explicit] Rose, normally very shy, finds the courage to get what she wants at a masquerade ball.

SHE ROCKS!!! [Dominique & Roxanne | General] Summer 2016. Roxanne and Dominique never get tired of playing Quidditch together. The rest of the family does get a little tired of hearing Dominique yell "SHE ROCKS!!!" everytime Roxanne scores a goal, but they don't say a thing.

On Holiday [James Sirius/Teddy | General] It's their first holiday together without the family, but they haven't done much sightseeing. Correction: they haven't done any sightseeing.

Pining [Lily Luna/Rose | General] It's a wonder no one besides Hugo has noticed that Lily Luna is pining for Rose.

ART + FIC

Swim To Me [James Sirius/Teddy | Teen] Nestled within the Lake District, among rolling green hills, spindly birch trees and tall pine trees, lay Teddy’s cottage, just a stone's throw from a serene lake; the perfect place to swim in the warm late-summer sun. There was just one problem: James’s fear of swimming. "I’ll teach you", Teddy said. "I’ll make it fun." James was sold on the idea pretty quick. Being in close contact with the half-naked object of his crush? It was a no brainer.

FIC

Drink Me [James Sirius/Teddy; Albus Severus/James Sirius/Teddy | Explicit] Before going to bed on his 18th birthday, Albus drinks one of Weasley Wizard Wheezes' newest wish-fulfillment potions, his gift from Lily.

Lavender's Iris [Lily Luna/Lavender | Teen] Lily does some hard thinking before her upcoming wedding. What she discovers is a bit of a surprise to her.

Close To Me [James Sirius/Teddy | Explicit] “I can’t believe you want to suck your own cock.” “No, the other way around. I wanna see me suck my cock. It’s a world of difference, Tedward. Keep up!”

Activate [Draco/James Sirius | Explicit] Draco always figured he was a common Beta, and though he may have had childhood dreams of presenting as an Alpha, after forty years of living he's made his peace with his lot in life. He had a loving relationship with his late Beta wife, has an amazing son, and his work at his Apothecary and Potions shop keeps him occupied. Draco has a very pleasant life indeed, until one day his son drags James Sirius Potter into his life and everything gets turned on its head.

Waiting for You [James Sirius/Teddy | Explicit] When James was sixteen, Teddy agreed to take his virginity if he made it to eighteen without losing it. He never thought James would make it the two years without shagging anyone, but now James is eighteen and asking Teddy to fulfill his promise.

My Potter Boyfriend [James Sirius/Scorpius | R] Scorpius has a Potter boyfriend, it’s just not the one everyone thinks.

On the Same Side [Charlie/Teddy | R] Teddy is heading to Romania to protest a proposed anti-dragon law. He finds an interesting ally there.

It's Just A Little Bond. Bond. [James Sirius/Teddy | R] When James and Teddy are pushed to the limits of their relationship, which include a bonding charm and several secrets, will they feel as strongly when everything is out in the open?

Where The Apples Grow In Winter [Albus Severus/Scorpius | Teen] Albus was determined not to join in with the Owl Exchange at first, but he didn't count on the awkward charms of a sweet, lonely boy who, by history's reckoning, he was definitely supposed to hate.

Mile Markers and Wizarding Wonders [James Sirius/Teddy | Teen] James plans a road trip to see the Seven Wizarding Wonders and Teddy ends up coming along. Cue weeks and weeks of bed sharing, accidental cuddling, Teddy's musical selections, a bit of stargazing and lots and lots of figuring each other out during long drives across Europe.

Neapolitan [James Sirius/Scorpius/Teddy | Explicit] Scorpius never felt bad about fancying both James and Teddy, because he never thought he had a chance with either of them. So when it turns out that they both like him back, what’s a bloke to do? (Take advantage of the situation. Obviously.)

Alt Er Love (Everything Is Love) [James Sirius/Teddy | Teen] There are sparks flying between Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy. Albus and Scorpius are sure of it. So they do the most logical thing everyone would do in their situation: They ask James and Teddy for their help playing matchmaker. Thinking about love 24/7 comes easy for Albus and Scorpius, but for James and Teddy, it makes it harder and harder to pretend the feelings they hold for each other are strictly platonic... This is the one where the boys try to set Draco and Harry up five times and one time they don't.

Love Our Way [Albus Severus/Blaise | Explicit] Blaise loves Albus. He also loves Albus' pale skin and how it contrasts so well with his own rich colour. Fortunate for him, it is just the same for Albus.

These Hearts They Race... [Albus Severus/Scorpius | R] Albus thought that three weeks without his secret boyfriend had been hard enough, but now that Scorpius has arrived the lack of privacy in the Potter house may actually kill him.

Show Me Where Your Love Lies [James Sirius/Teddy | Explicit] At 23 James is one of the top Seekers in the world, Witch Weekly's most eligible bachelor 4 years running and never far from the front pages of the paper. Oh, and he just so happens to be a virgin desperately in love with Teddy, both facts he plans to take to his grave. But when the Daily Prophet runs a story on "England's Most Eligible Virgin" all the secrets James has worked so hard to conceal begin to come out.

Can You See Me? [Albus Severus/Teddy | Teen] Albus has been watching Teddy since he was fifteen.

Dreams Do Come True [James Sirius/Teddy | R] Teddy has it bad for James, but he knows that James is completely off limits and not interested. When a date with James is being auctioned off for charity, Teddy realizes he may not be able to keep his feelings quiet.

The Clock That Changed Life [Draco/James Sirius | General] James is reluctant to come out, but when Draco gets cursed, he realises what's truly important to him.

my youth is yours [James Sirius/Teddy | Explicit] At twenty-eight years old James is a respected Auror with a comfortable life. And alright, perhaps his love life is a bit lackluster and something has always seemed like it was missing. But he’s got a job he loves and Teddy as his Auror partner and best mate. That's more than enough for James. At least until an Auror raid gone wrong leaves James in his eighteen-year-old body grappling with feelings he thought he’d left in the past.

Chess and Gobstones [Albus Severus/Scorpius | R] James sighed and shook his head. “You want to run with me because you have something you want to ask me. You’re not asking Scorpius, which means it’s about Scorpius. I’m right, aren’t I?” Albus scowled at his brother’s smug expression and muttered the most unenthusiastic confirmation he could. James’ grin grew wider as he started gesticulating with both hands. “So it’s about your boyfriend, and you’re not asking Mum, like you did when you needed help with his Christmas present, which means it’s about sex.”

Let it Bloom [Lily Luna/Pansy | Explicit] After their one-night stand, Lily had thought she wouldn’t be seeing more of Pansy. She’d never been so happy to be wrong. 

They would have told me, right? [James Sirius/Scorpius | Teen] Albus had heard the rumours. It was hard not to when his best mates were the subject. He loved them. Scorp and James. He really did. But he wouldn't complain if they decided to take it down a notch, though. Snaps with the people they presumably actually dated. Maybe a statement to the press. But Scorpius would just laugh in that disarming way he had from years of PR witches' work to smooth out the awkward. We're just mates. And then turn around and he would have Jamie on his lap, handsy as only two boys living out of suitcases and Quidditch locker rooms could be. They were up in each other's pockets so long now, it was impossible to think of one without the other. The press had a name for that: Scames.

The Boyfriend Look™ [James Sirius/Teddy | General] General reviews for Teddy’s taste in clothes include: a sartorial travesty (Albus Potter), absolutely painful (Lily Potter), very 80s (Hugo Granger-Weasley). James just sees Teddy.

Love and Letters [Albus Severus/Scorpius | Teen] A series of letters between Unspeakable Scorpius Malfoy and Professor Albus Potter.

Rarely Pure and Never Simple [James Sirius/Teddy | Explicit] James really enjoys his life. He likes sharing a flat with his best mate, Teddy. He likes being work-partners with said best mate. He likes going out at the weekends and shagging random girls. At least, that’s what he tells people. The truth isn’t that simple, and when James accidentally manages to get hit by a curse that makes him unable to lie he learns that hiding the fact that he’s completely and utterly arse over tit in love with Teddy is more complicated than expected. 

I Have To Tell You Something [Lily Luna Gen | General] Lily used to love family dinners until divorce, Quidditch contracts and one too many arguments ruined the atmosphere. Now that things were finally getting better, she's forced to bring her own problems to the table. Because even her tough-woman act isn't strong enough to hide the demons in her mind anymore.

Everything He Ever Wanted [James Sirius/Teddy | Teen] James has had a lot of favorite things in his life...or has he?

Out of Hand [Albus Severus/Harry | Explicit] Al gets into constant trouble at school and Harry is at his wit's end. Maybe a firm hand will set him right.

Hallo Spaceboy [James Sirius/Teddy | Teen] “If this mirror could talk,” James remembers declaring, already one drink down and trying to tidy up his ridiculous costume eyeliner, “it would say we look bloody amazing.” Teddy’s arm was warm when he wrapped it around James’s shoulder, pulling him closer. “We always do, love.” Teddy tugged on a long curl of James’s hair before tucking it behind his ear, then smoothing the whole lot of it back. “We’re the fittest blokes at the party, us.” James’d had to give up on the eyeliner after that; he was grinning too hard, flushed and happy and basking in Teddy’s attention (fit blokes, we’re fit blokes, that’s us), and he couldn't bloody stop.

the salacious ideas of peculiar boys [Albus Severus/Scorpius | Explicit] Albus and Scorpius have never been lacking on the idea front, but this time, rather than trying to change time and consequentially resurrecting a great darkness and eternal gloom, they've decided to try out something a little more... sexually experimental. alternatively titled: fellas, is it gay to jerk off your best friend?

The Frame [James Sirius/Sirius| Explicit] What are the ethical complications of falling for a person you're named after? How about the logistical complications of falling for someone who shouldn’t be alive? James would rather, he finds, not look too closely at either, not when Sirius makes him forget anyone else exists.

“What do you mean?” Severus asked, dumbfounded. “Seven?”

“Seven,” Dumbledore said with a great sigh. “And I have no idea how to find them. I have some ideas, but… I don’t know,” he said as he looked at him.

“What do you mean you don’t know? You’re Albus Dumbledore, you’re supposed to know everything!” Severus cried out as he threw his hands up. Well, if this man didn’t know, they were truly fucked! He shook his head and ran his hands through his hair in a stressed manner. “What are we supposed to do? How do you destroy them?”

“I don’t know that either,” Dumbledore said. “I really don’t. I’m hoping you can assist with this. Get information from him. Wrack your brain, Severus. Is there anything in his life he keeps close to him? Something he’d want to protect?” 

Severus sighed and furrowed his brows as he tried to think. “He keeps his snake close to him…. But can living things be Horcruxes?” Severus asked. He’d always thought they were just inanimate objects you cursed. 

“Yes,” Dumbledore said as he wrote that down. “Anything else?”

“I’m not sure, Albus. I haven’t paid attention to things like that. But I’ll start. I’ll get back to you,” he said as he looked at him in complete concern. It was uncomfortable silent as the weight of this situation sunk in. He bounced his leg nervously, then lifted his eyes to look at him. “Are we fucked?” he asked in a small voice.

Dumbledore sighed and looked at him, unable to answer that question. Severus nodded to himself and cast his eyes downward again. Fuck. 

- - -

Severus went into Headquarters quietly and looked around, trying to find any sign of anyone awake. The house was dark and quiet, which meant everyone was either out or asleep He cursed silently to himself and glanced upstairs. He and Lily had always run into each other the year they’d been living together, and now she was nowhere to be found. He stayed at the bottom of the steps for a good while, contemplating the risk of his actions. He finally decided fuck it, and went upstairs. He went to her room and got close to the door, hearing nothing. He slowly turned the knob, then opened it, his eyes trying to adjust to the darkness. He walked to the bed and squinted, seeing the slight reflection of glasses on one nightstand. Alright, there was Potter. He went to the other side and crouched down, seeing Lily sleeping soundly He put his hand over her mouth and watched her eyes shoot open. He placed his finger in front of his lips as she relaxed, then he nodded for her to get up and follow him.

They went downstairs and outside, and he shakily took out a cigarette. “I needed to see you,” he said quietly as he looked at her. “Can you come stay with me for a few days? Please? I just… I’m feeling a little hopeless and I want someone to take my mind off it. It’s not very exciting during the week with classes and marking, but… it’d be nice to not feel so alone,” he said as he took a drag, his hands still trembling. He looked down as she gently wrapped her hands around his to stop his quaking, then stole his cigarette from him. “Smoking’s bad for you, Lils. Come on,” he said as he plucked the cigarette from her mouth.

She was his ultimate source of comfort. “I can tell you about it when we aren’t here. I’m not really supposed to say anything yet, and Albus said he would brief everyone, but… if you aren’t going to be here for the meeting, you ought to just hear it from me,” he said, his eyes red-rimmed from stress. He hadn’t slept in more than a day. 

He felt defeated. He was tired. He was overwhelmed. He was terrified.

“I’m so scared, Lily,” he whispered. He’d just gotten her back and now none of them were probably going to make it through this. He had been on the verge of telling her his feelings so many times, but just couldn’t bring himself to do so. It wasn’t the right time, she wasn’t divorced, they wouldn’t be able to properly pursue something with each other, and it would just widen the target on her back. 

- - -

Lily stared at him wide-eyed, given that it was deeply concerning just how distressed that he was. This wasn’t good. What did he know? How could this situation possibly become any worse than it already was? They were in trouble, clearly. She carefully pinched the cigarette back, taking a slow drag before extinguishing it, “Let me go and get a few things together. I’m coming with you.” 

She knew that it wasn’t entirely appropriate. As much as he was her best friend, rushing off to stay with another man whilst married and they were having to live in this situation possibly wasn’t the best thing to do. She knew that Albus didn’t necessarily approve of her being away from here, let alone anyone else. If there was anything that she needed to do, she’d do it, but she didn’t have to be there. That and being around James on a daily basis was almost sickening now. She was trying to put on a brave face, but knew that it wasn’t really convincing anybody that they were in a good place. She didn’t want to. She didn’t want to give anyone false hope that her marriage was going to survive beyond these troubles.

She headed upstairs, slipping back into the bedroom. She pulled on a jacket over her pyjamas, before quietly grabbing a bag, filling it with a few essentials. James was out of it, and she was not going to be waking up. He didn’t deserve an explanation, quite frankly, that and he’d undoubtedly make it too difficult for her to leave if he did wake up. She soon stepped out of the room, cautiously closing the door behind her. 

However, she’d caught the attention of someone. It just wasn’t her husband. She looked up to see Marlene stood at the top of the stairs, eyeing her curiously, “Where do you think you’re going?” The blonde spoke softly, not trying to cause a scene. “Is that Severus down there? Lily, what on earth is going on?” She gestured down toward her bag. Honestly, Lily had confided in Mar. She’d told her everything, save a few details about what had happened between herself and James. She understood, to an extent. However, this was Mar. “You have to stop doing this. It doesn’t look great that you’re sneaking off with him in the middle of the night for days on end, even if it is perfectly innocent.”

“Which it is.”

The blonde sighed heavily, shaking her head disapprovingly. “I’d just rather you were here with us. I know that he is more than capable of looking out for you, but who knows what sort of company he keeps...”

“He lives at bloody Hogwarts, Mar. Do you think they’re just going to rock up there?”

“I don’t know! He could take you somewhere. You and I both know how close he is to...”

“Stop. He is not going to put me in any sort of compromising, dangerous position. I’ll be fine. He needs me at the moment, that’s all. You know that he has nobody. None of you are any bloody help. He needs some company and that’s fine with me.” She was trying not to make too much of it, because Mar would only fuss even further. Oh, she had never been a fan of Sev and their friendship. It had gotten better as Mar had become a little more flexible in her views. However, she wasn’t particularly approving of this, that much was obvious.

“You had better be on your bloody guard. I'm not covering for you though.”

“I don’t expect you to. I don’t care if they know, if he knows.” And with that, she leaned forward and gave her a hug “I’ll be back in a couple of days. I may even see you in the meantime. You know Albus will still be sending me out.” She laughed quietly before blowing a kiss as she walked down the stairs. She hurried into the kitchen, smiling as he stood from the table. “I’m ready if you are.” Honestly, she was still quite worried. She was nervous about whatever it was that he had to tell her, because it had clearly affected him deeply, and would undoubtedly have an impact on everyone else.

//

When they arrived at Hogwarts, she dropped her bag and collapsed down onto the sofa with a thump, running a hand through her messy hair. Oh, she didn’t care what she looked like. It was the middle of the night. Yet, she couldn’t go to sleep not knowing. She watched him as he moved to join her, her gaze not leaving him.

Stay

Ch 10

Sinead woke up early on Friday and insisted that Danny join her at the gym. She was a bit nervous and hoped that running a few miles on the treadmill would calm her down. After running nearly 10 miles Sinead's nerves were better and they stopped to get some coffee. Danny showered and then relaxed watching TV. Sinead put the turkey in the oven and began on the sides. The day before she made a few simple deserts as well as homemade bread. By 5 everything was done and Danny was experimenting with drinks. The table was already enlarged and Danny had help set it. At 6 Sinead heard a bark and opened the door to see Snuffles and Remus.

"Come on in." Danny's eyed widened as Snuffles became a man. 

"Sirius and Remus, this is my friend Danny."

"Nice to meet you. We picked up some wine on the way." Remus said handing over two bottles.

"Great." Danny and Remus went right into werewolf conversation and Sirius jumped in telling stories about how he turned into a dog to help Remus during his transformation. Tonks arrived next carrying a pie.

"Don't tell anyone, mom made it for me." She said with a nervous laugh.

"Tonks, this is my friend Danny."

"Hi." She said as Danny started handing out drinks. Bill arrived from work at the same time Mr. and Mrs. Weasley flooed in.

"I doubt the greasy git will show up." Sirius said when Molly mentioned that the only person who wasn't there was Severus. 

Arthur was looking around the flat which had a lot of muggle supplies. Danny turned on the TV and began to explain what cable was. The group fell silent when there was a knock on the door. Sinead was in the kitchen checking on dinner so Bill opened the door.

"Hello Severus." He said opening the door wider.

"Nice to see you, Severus." Molly said as Severus scanned the crowd. Sinead emerged and smiled.

"Hi Severus, this is my friend Danny."

"So you must be the Potions person? Sinead mentioned talking about the wolfsbane potion with someone."

"Yes." Severus felt a bit out of place in the gathering and Sinead sensed it.

"Dinner is ready if everyone wants to sit down." With a wave of her wand all of the food from the kitchen appeared on the table.

"Did anyone start their holiday shopping? Sinead helped me do most of mine yesterday. I'm horrible at picking out gifts." Danny said.

"I'm just about done as well. Better to get everything done before the rush." Molly said.

"Sinead, are you going home for Christmas?" Sirius asked.

"No, I'm actually going to stay here. If I go home my mum will have a fit and try to get me to stay. I haven't officially told her yet but my dad knows I'm staying. Bill, you’re going home right?"

"Yes, my son would never forgive me." He said with a frown.

"Oh you have a son? How old?" Arthur asked.

"Jim will be turning 21 this spring."

"Are you married?" Molly asked as Sinead bit her lip.

"No, divorced. I married young at 19 and joined the army. By the time I was 25 I was finished in the army and divorced. My wife remarried and has two daughters."

"Oh, sorry to hear." Molly said as Tonks glanced at Remus.

"We were a terrible match, still can't get along."

"One of the papers interviewed me when someone leaked I was your patient." Danny said trying to change the topic, Sinead frowned.

"Hmm... wonder who would have done that." She muttered.

"It was your ex, he was quoted in the paper as well. Maggie didn't want to tell you since she knew you'd get mad." Danny said as Sinead shook her head.

"I figured more papers would be waiting in line to interview you. An improvement to the wolfsbane potion is groundbreaking." Severus said.

"The Daily Prophet wanted an interview with the dreadful woman Rita Skeeter. When I asked for a new interviewer they said no. I did do a few interviews over the phone with newspapers and magazines in America. My new line of products is finally copy-written I sent the first few shipments to Salem a few weeks ago." Tonks and Molly fired off questions.

"Sinead, you a making quite a name for yourself. It's nice to see that someone new has finally made a mark on potion making." Severus said in between questions.

Sinead assured Tonks and Molly that once she began selling her products in London they would be the first to know, she gave them each a bottle of shampoo and both women promised to try it. After dinner everyone returned to the living room. Molly and Tonks remained to help clear the table.

"Such a lovely meal. Thanks again for having us." Molly said waving her wand as the dishes began to be cleaned on their own.

"Yes, it's been a good night." Tonks said with a smile. She had been seated next to Remus. The women returned to the living room to see Albus had joined the group. Danny was proudly showing off the bite mark on his knee and shoulder.

"How did it happen?" Albus asked.

"It was my fault. I was the one that suggested we go see this haunted house." Sinead said as Danny shook his head.

"How could it be your fault? You didn't know this could happen. I was just glad it was only three of us there and I pushed the girls out of the way. Sinead stunned the werewolf and used a spell to call for help. My girlfriend at the time passed out when she saw me get bit for the second time. If it wasn't for Sinead's quick thinking we all would have been dead." Danny said as Sinead glanced at her hands.

"That was brave of you. What happened to the werewolf?" Remus asked.

"Arrested and charged. It turns out the man, Justin Farley, had attacked another person during the previous full moon. He has been sitting in prison since then. Several murders that the police though were were animal attacks in New Hampshire and Maine were also linked to him." By the time desert was severed it was late.

"Tonks, this pie is delicious." Sinead said giving her a wink.

"Oh you think?" She said nervously.

"I agree it's delicious." Remus said as Sirius agreed.

Once desert was finished Albus had to return to Hogwarts. Molly and Arthur made sure that Sinead didn't need any help before they flooed back to the Burrow. Sirius turned back into Snuffles and Remus and Tonks were going to walk back to Grimmauld Place with him.

"I should be going as well." Severus said as Sinead gave him a small smile.

"Thanks for coming."

"Thank you for inviting me. It was nice to meet you Danny. Goodnight."
