Young Adult Chronicles - 3

Part 3 of the Young Adult Chronicles! Meet the married kids - a whole bunch of “high school” sweethearts! Timeline is a little wobbly but it’s okay 👍

✨👇 Further Details Below 👇✨

Seamus and Dean got engaged a few months after the War finished with the Battle at Hogwarts, and got married on the one year. Harry had officiated, with plenty of press considering Harry shoved off the Ministry Gala to be there. Dean is an artist and taking commissions for muggle or magical services. Seamus is a house husband. They have three Irish Wolfhounds named Dionysus, Aphrodite and Hera.

Millicent and Daphne married in the same year, but they followed a more pure blood courtship, so their engagement and wedding was more of a private affair at the Ministry. They had a baby via surrogacy, with a male from the Bulstrode line and Daphne’s egg. Similar to In-Vitro Fertilization but with more wizard shit. Their daughter is Gabriella Jane Bulstrode-Greengrass, and she is only a few months old. Millicent and Daphne don’t work as they are busy with their baby. Millie is in the works of getting her Transfiguration mastery and Daphne works away at managing the estates they have. Both are heirs and are considered Lady Bulstrode-Greengrass. They often can be found attending various garden parties or outings with other ladies amongst the notable Purebloods who are more progressive.

Draco and Harry had a similar situation, with a small marriage at the Burrow, surrounded by their friends and family. Hermione officiated with Blaise and Ron as their best men (respectively). There was no press, no notice and no announcements. Harry was going to have a quiet wedding if it killed him. They never have announced it since then. Draco wants to announce it, if only so the letters flooding their mailbox would cease. The warding on it to deter the shameless witches and wizards begging for the more uncouth aspects of a relationship can only do so much. Draco would gladly take the Howlers over the sexual fantasies people kept sending his husband… A man can only take so much…

On a side note - Harry and Draco have considered adopting a child as well, but are in the mindset of waiting until Draco is home more instead of being elbows deep into his barrister work. Especially since Harry is teaching DADA at Hogwarts, they don’t have enough time to raise a child. They do have a cat named Lily (Orange Maine Coone) after Harry’s mother. They also help raise Teddy with Remus and Tonks as well!

Hermione and Pansy were recently married, and they had a very big wedding, celebrating the success of Hermione taking over the Ministry. Her political reforms have shaken the wizarding world of Britain but it’s been peaceful. They have no children and no plans on having children, but Hermione’s cat Crookshanks is still kicking!

Ginny and Luna aren’t married or engaged. They are solely just dating. They don’t have plans to marry, but they are young and there is no war forcing them to grow up any faster than they already have and are taking it slow and enjoying life.

Neville, Blaise and Ron are not married on paper, but they have taken each other’s last names which is the same for them. Neville and Blaise had a fight over who’s last name Ron would get, but eventually Ron pointed out that if Neville took Blaise’s and Blaise took his, then it was only fair that Ron would take Neville’s too make it even. He didn’t care for the Pureblooded aspect of what being a “Longbottom” or a “Zabini” would bring him, but rather he cared that each of them took another last name to tie them all together more seamlessly. No children but Ron took over for Madame Hooch as the flying instructor and he loves it! Neville is apprenticing under Professor Sprout for his Herbogy major and Blaise is happy being a kept man and maintaining their ever growing forest of plants and animals. They have two dogs, and a cat! (Named Felix (Yorkshire Terrier) Leigh (Teacup Poodle) and Harold (American Shorthaired Tabby (brindle coloring), in honor of the dearly departed Trevor. Neville insisted on the more human names because it’s a little funny.) Harold stats at Hogwarts with Neville and Ron in their shared office and room, while Felix and Leigh are at home with Blaise.

Lavender and Parvati are married! They live in France actually, but keep in touch with their Hogwarts alumni. Parvati is the Divination teacher now, after Trelawney retired after the War. Lavender keeps up their house and is neighbors with Fleur and Bill and their children! Lavender and Parvati have two children of their own - Twins named Nicholas and Calista. (Nick(ie) and Callie for short. They have a few aunts and uncles, like Uncle Ron, Blaise and Neville, Uncle Bill and Aunt Fleur, Auntie Daphne and Millie, Aunt Hermione and Pansy, Uncle Harry and Draco, Uncle Theo and Mausi Padma. They were adopted into a magical family after their muggle parents gave them up after an incident of accidental magic almost set their house on fire. The French Ministry of Magic located and regimes the two magical children. The twins are 4 years old as of the “modern day”. Lavender and Parvati raise them to be bilingual in English and Hindi, but they are also learning French in primary school. They do know they are adopted but they love their mothers dearly!

Padma is living her best life learning Wandlore and getting her certifications in wand making. Ever since Ollivander told her that she had a knack for intuitions and the wand that chose her would be best suited for divinations- she spent most of her spare time studying Wands and how to make cores throughout her time at Hogwarts. She hated arithmancy as the tiring subject often caused her to derail from homework into the applications of her profession. She is set to open her own shop by the end of the year and allow Ollivander to retire from wands. He is insistent on helping her run her own shop though, primarily clerk and stockings.

Theodore has taken over the History of Magic classes. He has revitalized the curriculum to be more modern than 800 year old battles. When the First and Second Blood Wars arise, Headmistress McGonagall has school wide assembly with former students speaking about their experiences. Harry doesn’t speak much at these, instead has a class dedicated to answering questions from his students when Theodore covers the topic.

- Lots of headcanons but that’s the beauty of an AU.

after a ton of consideration, I’m not going to do “The Exchange Student”. I️ cant get a plot to work at all in this format and it’s too clunky. I’ll probably do something with James and Lily being alive, but not that story again. Sorry for those who did like it, but I️ just can’t make the story work.

YouTube Channels - Core 9

Harry

Harry’s youtube channel would be surprisingly mundane to what the public assumed. And barren. There’s like 15 videos on his channel.

He makes very Day In the Life and Get Ready With Me styled videos. Simplistic, picture vlogs during the summer months with videos taken during trips. It’s very mundane and quaint. If people want to see him, they have to watch his friends’ videos. He appears mostly in Hermione’s or Ginny’s videos, and a few in Draco’s. At least his “private” account, which is more BTS styled videos for the Chimera YouTube. On his more mainstream account that the wizarding public see, there’s more social justice style commentary. Hermione appears in a lot of those as a fact check and to also get her voice out there. His most famous video is called “My Thoughts on Being the Boy Who Lived”. It’s an hour long. People who watch it are greeted with a black screen for 59 minutes before it opens to a Zoom call of Ron laughing before the rest of his friends join in and the video ends with Draco threatening to hex people who keep prying into Harry’s life.

Hermione

Hermione is very education based. She has weekly deep dives into subjects that she finds fascinating. Pulls a lot of sources for her videos and gives her own spin. Very educational. She enjoys making study guide videos for classes as well as Tips and Tricks videos to help other students who may need pointers to study. If there’s a class at Hogwarts, Hermione has probably made a video about it. Or several. She does a monthly book review, filled with everything she has read- from scientific journals to cheesy romance. She rates them on whether she would reread them, but the list is very subjective to tastes.

She often appears in make-up or hair styling videos with Pansy, or if her other friends want her as a “google” source. The longest video she was in was with Draco about the specifications about potion making and whether the rules are more of a guideline or actual things that need to be listened to. There is an hour long, complex argument included that most viewers who don’t care about potions will skip over but plenty of potion masters would enjoy.

Ron

Ron’s content is far and few between. Much like Harry, he is found in other videos. Videos he does make are about quidditch, his boyfriends or chess. He talks about quidditch in broad terms and often analyzes videos of quidditch matches, finding flaws in plans and offering improvements on how to better strategize gaining points with a quaffle before grabbing the snitch. Oliver Wood has called many a time to lament how much he wishes Ron was on the team when he attended Hogwarts.

It is not uncommon for him to found in Ginny, Hermione or Neville’s videos. Usually in the background or contributing, but his quick wit and humour is sometimes the spotlight. When making a video with Hermione, he acts as a great metric for what most witches and wizards can understand and usually decodes most of what Hermione says.

Draco

Despite his best wishes, Draco’s channel is chock full of charms and potions videos. He is most passionate about charms and likes to make explanatory videos on how to best perform charms or make enhancements to charms. He has made a few campy, early 2014 styled vlogs with his friends such as “The Boyfriend Tag” “Best Friend Tag” etc.

He doesn’t really appear in other videos. He chimes in a bit on Ron’s quidditch videos or Harry’s day to day lifestyle ones.

Pansy

This fashionista has one of the most active YouTube pages. She does monthly shopping videos, and hauls. She does some DYI for upcycling old pieces to make a new one. She specializes in her make-up get ready with me videos though. Like most beauty youtubers she sits down and just does full faces and talks for 20 minutes. She does reviews on products sent to her and expressed continuing that after Hogwarts.

She hosts a lot of collabs, mainly doing Hermione’s make-up or styling unique pieces for Luna. She is also found in a lot of Harry’s main account videos or even on Millie and Daphne’s joint channel doing challenge videos.

Blaise

Besides Harry, Blaise has one of the most inactive channels. He does travel vlogs over the summer and had a small series of italian videos when he first started but he prefers to keep his private life, private. He doesn’t appear in a lot of other videos either, if only in the background.

Neville

Herbology videos. This man loves herbology and he will go on hour long tangents about plants. He runs projects in the greenhouses and spends his videos talking about plants and their uses, whether medicinally or in potions. This boy just talks about plants. He also discusses ecology and music but the main focus is plants.

Neville appears in a lot of other videos, especially when Hermione makes Herbology videos. Ron is also there to decode the technical terms.

Ginny

Quidditch, quidditch and quidditch. This jock adores quidditch. She reviews a lot of Top 10 videos analyzing quidditch plays and games. She brings Ron and Harry on a lot to also talk sports.

Ginny is found in a ton of Luna’s videos, or Harry’s videos as well. She has the most collabs though, bringing other Quidditch players on to watch the plays and analyze them for how easy the moves would be to replicate.

Luna

Luna’s channel is full of art and jewelry videos. She also does Tarot readings to several of her friends. She does a lot of social commentary on mental health topics during her videos as well. Some people have clicked on a Luna Lovegood video expecting a easy to listen to speed art video, and gets sucked into understanding how demonizing mental health only worsens the problem at hand, and tips to make life a little less overwhelming for those with sensitivity disorders.

Luna doesn’t collaborate with many people except Ginny or Draco. She doesn’t appear in many videos except her own.
