Warnings for this chapter: graphic description of blood

With that, let’s begin!

Chapter 4: The Serpent’s Nest

Mc yawned as she woke up in her familiar room of requirement, but in an unfamiliar yet welcome embrace. Ominis looked just like an angel as he slept, happy and content to be holding her in this way finally, a little gratified sigh escaping his lips now and then.

The girl could not believe how blind she had been to his beauty. She ran his silky soft blonde locks through her fingers like sand, head placed on his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat.

She smiled. This didn’t feel like how it did waking up with Sebastian at all… There was a buzz she felt in her veins that wasn’t there before, and when he had touched her…she couldn’t deny the electricity any longer.

“Mc?” Ominis spoke, instinctively feeling for her and pulling her closer.

“I’m here Ominis” she replied, looking lovingly into his soft blind eyes.

The slytherin smiled and began to stroke her hair, internally wanting to pinch himself to check this was all actually happening .

“This… doesn’t feel real” he sighed.

Just lay there, absorbing her sweet sugary scent, was enough to bring the boy a lifetime of happiness. They didn’t speak until they had to, just enjoying each other’s touch, not wanting to enter back into reality.

But this was, in fact, real. And soon enough they would have to face the world again.

To face Sebastian, again.

Ominis breaks the silence as much as his body tries to refuse.

“We need to go to breakfast dear” he sighs, begrudgingly.

Mc nodded slowly, reluctantly, gripping the Gaunt’s robes tighter in her fist.

“I suppose…so”

Suddenly her sad eyes brightened with an idea.

“You could sleep here from now on. You know…In my room of requirement.” She suggests, biting her lip in apprehension.

Ominis’ blind eyes go wide at her words, not expecting her to say such a thing so quickly. This was already very improper indeed, and he knew that in the back of his mind, two students sleeping in bed together, somewhere unsanctioned…

It was all very… scandalous.

“Are you certain my dear?” His cheeks flush at her proposition, trying to disguise the fact that there was a swarm of butterflies all over his body.

The girl nods enthusiastically.

“I can always conjure you a second bed if you’d prefer-“

Ominis shakes his head dramatically. Both let out a small genuine laugh in unison before going to get ready for the day and heading to the great hall.

When they arrived, Sebastian was sat on his own, piercing dark eyes fixated on the two, watching their every move. If looks could kill, Mc and Ominis would be dead a thousand times over by now, just from this morning.

The boy’s glare was icy, brows knotted and furrowed together in distaste and anger, fist clenching his spoon at the mere thought of the two together.

Sebastian shook his head and broke eye contact with his ex lover, instead suddenly having a deep interest in the bottom of his cereal bowl.

Mc touched Ominis’ shoulder softly.

“He looks angry.” Mc whispered in the blonde’s ear, trying her hardest not to look back at the other end of the table.

Ominis nodded, clearly biting back some kind of feeling. Like he couldn’t express his words somehow.

“Let him be. We tried to help him” He said finally, choking the words out. It was then that Mc realised that this must’ve been the first morning in years Ominis had spent in the absence of Sebastian. The two had always been as thick as thieves, and Ominis was struggling to swallow the fact their friendship was now over.

Suddenly it had all just hit him like a bludger to the head.

Ominis slowly reached for Mc’s hand under the table, finding it and squeezing it gently in reassurance.

“It’ll all be alright my dear.” He whispered softly as everyone evacuated the hall for lessons. Mc breaks a smile. Despite absolutely nothing seeming alright, the way Ominis said it made her feel a sense of safety she hadn’t felt before. The boy had always had a way with words, being as well spoken as he was, but even when he said little to nothing, there was a warmness in his reassurance that you couldn’t find anywhere else…

Ominis sighed as he was forced to return to class as usual, resistant to wake up to his reality after spending the night holding Mc.

The two waved goodbye reluctantly, trudging off to their respective lessons…

~

Sharing a class with Sebastian that morning was like treading into the serpents nest, once and for all.

And Ominis didn’t feel like testing the snake’s bite if he was honest. Henceforth, the two continued to ignore each other’s existence.

It was the only time Ominis felt blessed to be blind, for at least he didn’t have to avoid any uncomfortable eye contact or glares…

Despite the lesson dragging slightly, and potions was always going to drag for Ominis, they got through it unscathed, and without breaking their silence.

Thank Merlin.

Ominis decided that now was a good opportunity for him to grab his belongings from the Slytherin dormitories, as he had a free period coming up. Plus the sooner he removed himself from Sebastian’s poisonous atmosphere, the sooner he’d start to heal.

Pulling out his wand, he navigated his way down to the dorms, gathering his stuff hastily, when his strong senses stopped him dead in his tracks.

It had to be a coincidence…

“Mc?” Ominis called out softly, confused as to why she’d be here, at the male dormitories…

The silence echoed back at him, escalating his confusion.

No, he knew that scent anywhere. That was her scent.

Ominis’ face turned ghostly pale as he realised what it must be.

Sure enough, there on Sebastian’s bed, sat an Amortentia potion.

‘The most powerful love potion in the world’, Ominis echoed Professor Sharp’s words from the previous lesson in absolute horror, trying to collect himself, trying to deny this was happening.

The honeyed scent of sugar and flowers, Mc’s amortentia, swirled around the room agonisingly as Ominis put the pieces together.

His blood was about to boil over as he heard that familiar accent enter the room.

Sebastian appears at the doorway, a thick smirk pasted on his lips.

“Snooping through my stuff Ominis? I thought you were above that” Sebastian taunts, stepping firmly into the room.

“Step away from me, I demand you.” Ominis snaps, heart beating at an alarming rate, his hand holding his wand beginning to tremble slightly.

“From that I gather we do have something else in common after all.” Sebastian says, picking up the potion from the bed, tracing his long fingers along the glass vial torturously.

“You will never make her drink that. Not as long as I’m here. Destroy it now.” Ominis tried to remain calm as he listened out for the brunette’s next moves, ready to duel if he needed to.

Ominis couldn’t wait any longer, taking a gamble he guessed and aimed for the potion, smashing it out of the boy’s hands, glass shattering into a million tiny shards on the floor, the sickly smell of sugar suffocating the room.

Sebastian pants, clutching his hand, a thick gash appearing across his skin and pouring blood.

“I wasn’t going to bloody use it!” He shouts at the blind boy, that unbreakable anger appearing once again.

“Right, so you just made it to taunt at me?” Ominis scoffed.

“Or to threaten me and Mc?”

Sebastian whimpered slightly at his cut, before letting his adrenaline take over again. “I knew you two were sleeping together! I made it in a moment of weakness” Sebastian admits, resorting to wrapping his tie round his hand to slow the bleeding.

“I wanted her to choose me.” He groans.

“Do you love her?”

The blind boy waits for a reply.

“Of course I love her”

“Or were you just using her like you’ve tried to use me?” Ominis questions.

Sebastian gives a cryptic smile.

“I’ve loved her harder, and longer than you ever could”

Ominis looks furious.

“What sick and twisted version of love do you have to offer her?”

Ominis slams the door behind him, making an internal vow to leave Sebastian Sallow behind for good…

Chapter 3: Sugar and Flowers

Mc sobbed as she descended to the Slytherin dungeons, mind a mess, instinctively only after one particular person.

Ominis was already, as if by some fate, stood outside, blind eyes sad as he could hear someone crying. Concerned, he pulled out his wand to try and figure out who it was when his heart sank like an anchor in his chest.

“Mc? Dear! What’s wrong?” He rushed in her direction as he identified the sobs, desperate to comfort her and resolve the issue. The blonde boy had only heard her cry once in their friendship and it was at the hands of a poacher. Mc had come back from rescuing beasts one afternoon in floods of tears at seeing the way poachers treated these living beings, and it killed him inside to hear her cries, to not be able to help her, unable to comfort her, to hug her and caress her hair how he longed to.

Mc could barely get the words out, letting him find his way to her, feeling his hand slide across her shoulders as he embraced her, knowing just what she needed. He tried not to soak in her scent too much, a bountiful blend of sugar and flowers.

“S-Sebastian-“ She managed to spit the boys name out at last, telling Ominis all he needed to know.

Ominis felt rage like no other as his mind wandered to what the brunette could’ve possibly done now to upset her like this, part of him wanting to track him down and “give him a piece of his mind”, as he would say.

But he knew she needed him more than ever right now.

“Come now dear,” he began, escorting her into the dorm rooms to sit down, sitting beside her on the sofa, rubbing her back as her breath hitched in her throat in distress. Ominis began to breathe with her, allowing oxygen to return to her head, wanting so badly to squeeze her hand in reassurance rather than give her space.

Mc sniffed uncontrollably, trying to find the right words to say.

“Sebastian wanted to meet me in the undercroft..” She spoke quietly, as if she were any louder she would lose her voice entirely.

Ominis nodded, confused to hear Sebastian had invited her down there in the first place.

“And…” he soothed, tracing shapes on her back all the while,

“What did he say to you?”

He tried to hold back any ounce of fury in his voice, wanting Mc to know that whatever happened, it wasn’t her fault, and he was here.

Mc clenched her teeth slightly, knowing she needed to tell him the full story. She didn’t want it to go like this, but this was a last resort. She wiped her tears and tried to explain.

“He wanted me to go and kill Goblins again…”

She grabbed Ominis’ arm, eliciting a small blush from the boy as she spoke.

“Ominis he’s changed! He’s getting worse, and it’s beyond my help now. Maybe even beyond yours…” she trailed off, recounting Sebastian’s harsh words about his best friend, how he disregarded him so quickly.

Ominis sighed and slumped down, agreeing with her.

“I know” he whispers, a bitter taste on his tongue as he admitted the truth; Sebastian was beyond their help now, too wicked and corrupt and swept up in his hurricane of hatred to reason with.

Mc sighed in turn, knowing she needed to tell him the full truth.

“I-“ she choked, looking at the ground, hesitant to speak.

Ominis tilted his head in confusion, but didn’t pry as she regained her breath and explained to him of their filthy undercroft sessions, leaving out the details as much as she could.

“I stopped because… I like you. I couldn’t be with him and keep my mind from running off to you, to wishing I was with you” the girl admitted, looking into Ominis’ wide empty eyes for some, any reaction.

The boy coughed, withdrawing his hand from her back slowly.

In that moment she expected him to walk away, to leave her in upset, angry at her secrets, thinking her to be deceitful. But this was Ominis, and she was wrong.

“I…like you too” Ominis said.

Mc’s lips finally relaxed into a small smile as she heard the words, knowing in that moment she could live a thousand lifetimes and not deserve this boy.

“You do…” she breathed, some part of her waiting for the ‘but’ that she deserved. But Ominis in fact, was too in awe, too in love with her to object this.

“If he ever touches you again he’ll be expelled, and I’ll make sure I see to that” He states, Mc’s eyes welling up once again, too overwhelmed by emotion, letting herself free in this moment as she wrapped her arms around him, squeezing his body tight, not wanting to ever let him go.

“Oh my love…” he gasps, letting himself sink into her, their bodies moulding together like they were always made for eachother. Mc cried in relief, for the first time in forever knowing this had to be what real love was to feel like…

Ominis’ slender fingers caressed her hair softly as they held eachother, letting her softly grasp at his robes as she melted into him like butter. He’d dreamt of holding her like this for months and he was trying his best not to think about where his dreams led them after this, yet a soft, slightly shameful blush spread across his usually pale cheeks. And it wasn’t even like he knew of what he said in his slumber… the entire dorm hearing his little whimpers of pleasure as he imagined her body beneath his, wanting to love every inch of his desired wife, calling her name softly and lovingly, living in his nightly fake reality.

But now this was real…

And he couldn’t comprehend it…

Mc, on the other hand couldn’t believe what she’d been missing, some part of her knowing she had a thing for the boy, but unable to work out if it was just a crush or something deeper.

She looked up at his face, tracing her hands across his beauty marks, letting her forefinger discover his lips.

Ominis was slightly hesitant to kiss her, knowing what she had just been through, knowing how Sebastian’s lips had touched and tainted hers, but like hell did he wish to. He would dream of this moment night after night, full moons would come and go without her embrace, without him being able to say she was his. And it ruined him.

But had things changed?

Were her feelings really as deep as his?

Before he could let another thought enter his mind, the girl leans in, Ominis taken by surprise and suppressing every urge to fully let himself loose. He kissed back, the way he always dreamed of doing, some part of him trying to hold back, not to frighten her. It was a small yet meaningful kiss, filled with a strange sense of familiarity, like they’d done this lifetimes before.

It felt… like home.

Despite his entire body objecting, he was the one to pull away first. “My dear… “ he panted, breath swept away in the feeling of her.

“Are you sure you want this?” He didn’t want to say anything, just kiss her softly like she had just initiated, but this wasn’t Sebastian, this was Ominis, nothing if not a gentleman.

Mc nodded, letting her lips slide in unison with his, shuddering in pleasure and excitement as he lifted her up into his lap.

“Merlin don’t let me be dreaming” Ominis gasped as they stopped for air, his body begging to pinch itself to check this wasn’t all some dream.

Mc moaned as he took in the curves of her waist, his hands naturally touching her in all the right places as he tried to picture her in his mind.

He was certain she was beautiful.

The most beautiful woman to grace this earth, he had no doubt.

Mc shook her head, smiling.

“It’s not a dream Ominis”

Night fell as they caught up with eachother, moving to a private room to resume their embrace. Nothing more happened that night than their hazy and lustful kisses, before they fell asleep wrapped up in eachother, Ominis holding her all night long, barely able to sleep at the shock that this was all his reality. His mind forgetting about Sebastian, and everything else that ailed him, his entire focus on her and her soul.

A magical buzz only they could feel swept around them like an unbreakable bubble of adoration, and they both, for the first time, finally knew what peace meant and what love felt like.

~~~

What Ominis and Mc failed to remember however is that Sebastian would eventually return to the slytherin boy’s dormitory, expecting to see his former best friend, still oblivious and asleep. So when Sebastian stared wide eyed at the empty bed, a new, stronger wave of rage enamoured him as he realised what must’ve gone on.

He didn’t think Mc would have the guts to tell him, if he was honest and the thought of what they may be doing now made him feel ill. A taste of his own medicine.

He fled the dorm, marching to the potion room, his mind a terrible entanglement of revenge yet again. Not thinking straight, he hastily gathered the ingredients.

Ashwinder eggs, rose thorns, peppermint. Powdered moonstone, pearl dust, rose petals.

The boy sniffed into the cauldron, closing his eyes at the overpowering scent, that wicked grin returning in success.

The mellifluous scent of sugar and flowers…

Chapter 2: The Secrets Of The Undercroft

Mc sighed as she stared at the many clock hands of the undercroft, debating whether to unlock it. Sebastian had insisted he meet her here, and she assumed it could only be his lust for her taking over yet again. That he wanted his fill of her, that he couldn't stand another day of watching her and Ominis grow closer.

Whilst Sebastian had kept his distance for a whole two weeks, and she did miss their antics, she was becoming absolutely smitten with the blonde pureblood boy and couldn't deny it any longer. He was sweeter than any candy you could find at honeydukes and caring towards her with no obligation, a stark contrast from Sebastian...

What was she getting herself into?

Her mind remained an unfiltered mess, torn between the seams of two conflicting slytherins as she took a deep breath and opened the door to the undercroft. She shuddered at how cold it felt, running the tips of her fingers along the dark icy walls, familiarising herself with its interior again. Many a time she came here shivering but ending up in a sweaty whirlwind of passion with the boy, leaving hair a mess, hardly able to walk, and craving his touch further...

The boy was like a poison to her…

The metal gate lifted for her as she reached the bottom of the stairs, welcoming the way into the forbidden room and then shutting with a thud, a heavy reminder there was no way of leaving easily. Sebastian was already here, perched on an old barrel with his back to the door, head in a book again no doubt. The slytherin swivelled round to look at her, giving the girl a cryptic smile and motioning for her to come over to him.

She approached him slowly, before sitting opposite him, looking down at the floor while waiting for him to finish the page of the book he was reading and speak. Sebastian set the book down and cleared his throat, locking his dark eyes with hers and letting his hand snake up her leg, stroking it.

Mc groaned softly as she tried to deny a blush from escaping her cheeks.

The slytherin broke the silence.

"You should realise by now that I know exactly where to touch you to evoke a reaction" He teased, a slight smirk appearing on his lips, leaning in closer to her.

"Even just an act as simple as this and you go as silent as a mouse don't you?" He laughs softly at her silence and frustration of lack of control.

"Did you invite me here just to toy with me? Or did you actually want to talk?" Mc says at last, rolling her eyes at his words. She hated the physical effect he had on her...

Sebastian nods and draws back from her slightly, hand still firmly planted on her thigh all the while. "I couldn't speak about this in front of Ominis, but I need your help taking out another Goblin camp… I think the one I found may have some clues to Anne's cure" he explains, his nails digging into her thigh slightly at the mere thought of the creatures that cursed his sister.

Mc's face twists into a scowl.

"Seriously? You want me to come and kill Goblins again with you?" She questions, frustrated that he would even ask this again.

"And? They deserve it!" Sebastian exclaims, upset she didn't Immediately take his side in all of this.

"Seb, I can't keep doing this stuff, it's not right. What Ominis would say-"

He cuts her off with a scoff.

"What would Ominis know?" He sneers.

Mc sits there in shock, trying to find the right words to use in the face of his tantrum.

"He's your best friend Sebastian! He wants what's best for you, and this isn't it" Mc asserts, her heart rate increasing at their argument, desperate to get him to listen to her.

"Was my best friend." The boy mumbles.

Her mouth opens in shock, hurt he would even say that about the boy he'd known for so long. She couldn't comprehend how quick he was changing, how fast he was corrupting, it was only a matter of time until-

Her thoughts were interrupted with no warning as Sebastian leans in to kiss her neck, prompting a sharp gasp to escape her lips as he pushes her back and pins her against the icy walls of the undercroft. Mc forces back a moan at the sudden sensation, trying her hardest not to give in to the situation. To give into him again.

Sebastian stops kissing her, pausing to take her a look at her surprised face.

He begins tracing his thumb over her mouth.

"What secrets hide behind these pretty pink lips of yours I wonder?" He says licking his lips, tilting his head in question.

"Secrets that Ominis would fear to even fantasise of?" He smirked as he whispered the words, his hot breath getting ever closer to her neck.

"You're blackmailing me" Mc struggles, majorly regretting her decisions at this point.

"What would he think when he finds out that you're a whore for me? That you crumble under my words in a way he could never make you" He mocks, working her neck.

"Stop" she says firmly, yet her body is pleading with her to give in to him.

Yet… This wasn't right...

"You want this. Stop denying yourself of me" Sebastian growls.

He works his hand into her hair as he kisses her passionately, Mc's mind a whirlwind.

"S-seb I-"

He shushes her and lets his hands roam her hips and waist, the icy cold walls of the undercroft tinging her skin.

"Sebastian-" she struggles to stop him, even though she knows for a fact she can, and easily.

Could she not bring herself to stop him?

She felt pathetic, defenceless against his charm.

The slytherin spoke up again, a wicked smile claiming his lips.

"He could never even dream of doing this to you could he? Because deep down you know you're my whore"

She was going to boil over.

"Stop!" She shouts, Sebastian's hands withdrawing from her body and his face twisting into a scowl.

"I can't do this. I can't- not anymore Seb." She pants, wiping her lips, looking into his darker than ever eyes.

Before he can even reply, she flees, slamming the door of the undercroft behind her, certain that she'd make that the last time she ever saw him down there...

In The Shadow Of Serpents

- A Dark Sebastian Sallow Series

Majorly inspired by my Dark Seb series on TikTok

Synopsis: Many years after leaving Hogwarts, Ominis is telling his and Mc’s children the downfall of his old friend turned dark Wizard, Sebastian Sallow…

Disclaimer: this is not at all how I see Sebastian, it’s just a twist on what his character could’ve become and is just a concept!

“It’s our decisions that make us who we really are”

[Intro- the main story is set in the past of these events]

Summer - 1915

(somewhere in the Scottish highlands)

Ominis’ two children laughed as they ran into the living room of their little cottage, excited for yet another one of their father’s enriching bedtime stories. Ominis would always smile widely as they’d fight the urge to close their eyes, too invested in the story to go another day not knowing the ending.

The two had inherited their father’s icy blonde locks, with both even going as far as shocking their parents by speaking parsel tongue to a grass snake one night. Ominis loved them both dearly, and would never change them for the world, but some part of him had always hoped they’d inherit Mc’s traits and talents over his…

He ran a hand through his blonde,- going- silvery locks for an idea for tonight, before falling upon a deep and dark memory that had sat stagnant in his mind since he was a boy. The slytherin cleared his throat as Ivy and Jasper, his troublesome twins, finally got comfy and waited patiently for their father to begin the story.

Ominis sighed softly, inaudibly. He thought they were old enough to learn about their parents past now, it was time…

“A long time ago, I had a friend called Sebastian. He was friendly and smart, that was until, his sister fell ill. Though he always loved to read, he turned to books in the dark arts and started to practice unforgivable curses…

Your mother and I… couldn’t support him any longer after he killed his own uncle and we made the decision to send him to Azkaban. Many years later we received an owl saying he’s escaped. No one knows where he is now. But he’s out there…somewhere…”

The two children turned to look at eachother in confusion at the story. Normally Ominis stories were about fairies and magic and fun, not his past and…dark wizards… especially not in this tone…

“He’s one of the most dangerous wizards still out there” Ominis swallowed. “But me and your mother will always keep you safe, as long as we shall live, you have nothing to worry of my darlings.”

Just as he finishes his sentence Mc quietly enters the room, clasping a cup of her home brewed tea, curling up on the sofa like a cat, smiling happily at her little family. “What did I miss?” She smiles as she cozies up, curious as to what story her husband had thought up tonight.

Ominis coughs. “Hello dear. I was just telling them about Sebastian Sallow” he says, biting his lip softly as he awaits his wife’s reaction.

Mc’s face turns pale as she almost drops the tea out her hand. “Sebastian?” She says the word as if it isn’t quite real, as if it’s been so long she needed to brush off its cobwebs.

Ominis nods. “Yes dear”

Mc sighs quietly as she slowly brings the teacup up to her lips.

“I remember well”

*Flashback to Summer, 1890*

[Main story begins here]

Chapter 1: Hanging by the thread

Sebastian looks tired, slumped into a chair in the library as he stirs his butterbeer for the thousandth time while flicking the forbidden pages of the restricted section’s literature. He couldn’t sleep though, hell no, that would just amplify his sickening guilt at how he hasn’t found a cure yet.

It was taking forever, and though he demanded (and got) all the help anyone could ask for, the cure seemed to be running from him. The further he delved into his books, the further hope seemed to fade away…

He heard the library clock strike midnight and decided that was enough for today, picking himself up and navigating the twisting corridors of hogwarts back to the slytherin dorm room.

When he arrived Ominis was already fast asleep, lips slightly parted as he lay on his side, hand twitching every so often as if he were lost in some dream. Sebastian deduced he was probably dreaming about Mc, as much as he wished he would not think of her that way… but that was something he was letting take it’s course for now.

The slytherin stretched and yawned as he quickly undressed and slid under the covers, determined to make progress again tomorrow.

The brunette tossed and turned in the night, having a restless sleep, if you could even call it that, riddled with dreams of Goblins doing awful acts…a flashback to Anne being cursed on the cliff next to his home being replayed over and over again in his mind. It filled the boy with this unbreakable rage, only to be satisfied with an act of revenge.

These dreams continued until he heard a familiar well spoken voice.

Ominis broke a nervous smile.

“Late night again I’m assuming?”

Sebastian sat up slightly dazed at the question, ruffling his chestnut hair into something presentable, as if Ominis could somehow see it or even could care.

“Mhm… researching again, you know…” He said, his morning voice a little gruff and hoarse.

“And…. Did you get any further?” Ominis laid his words down delicately and softly, knowing how loose the thread that held their friendship together was now becoming. Ominis was always a master of this, having learned it from being the only kind hearted Gaunt beside his aunt, always having to hedge his words to avoid provoking an argument…

Even so, finding ways to prevent Sebastian’s fiery tantrums proved exceedingly difficult nowadays, and he never knew when the boy would go off on another of his dark tangents. It was hard watching his best friend destroy himself this way, and in a way, it was destroying a part of him…

Sebastian sighed heavily and rubbed his eyes, knowing well he couldn’t go into detail of his thoughts and plans around his Goblin filled dream as Ominis would definitely give him a lecture. He decided he was going to keep quiet and discuss it later with Mc in under undercroft. Along with some other things…

“No, but fuck do I need some caffeine.” He groaned.

They got ready quickly and headed to the great hall for breakfast, making small talk about their classes that day. Any outsider looking in wouldn’t be able to see the threads in their friendship tearing, at least.

Mc was already sat in her designated spot when they arrived, legs crossed as she nibbled on some toast, doing something so mundane yet looking ethereal to them both. The twinkle in her eye as she saw them both headed to her, cheeks turning a warmer shade of pink.

Sebastian licked his lips unknowingly at the sight of her, his mind wandering to their steamy sessions in the undercroft in the past. Their last one was weeks ago now, and he was getting withdrawal from her touch. His body burned to be ontop of hers, to be intertwined with her like he had been so many times before.

He was far from happy when she confessed to him her feelings for Ominis, and although he only saw it as two friends having some fun in the beginning, the boy came to love her deeply… and the only obstacle was his own best friend… not that Ominis even knew of their escapades yet…

Sebastian swallowed his thoughts and sat down, grasping for the coffee that was already half way down the slytherin dining table. Ominis tutted as he heard Sebastian down the entire cup in one go, not once stopping for air.

Mc tries to hold back a giggle at the sight of it, earning her a wink from Sebastian. She tries to ignore it out of respect of her dual feelings for Ominis but her cheeks betrayed her, blushing anyway. At the end of the day Sebastian still held some power of her, as much as she hated it. It was much simpler before all these romantic feelings appeared, and it didn’t take a genius to work out that this friendship trio wasn’t what it once was…

Ominis shifted uncomfortably in his chair, picking up on Mc’s laugh, digesting that familiar feeling of being left out, and thought he hated to admit it, jealousy.

Breakfast wrapped up and the bells rang for first lesson, prompting everyone to slowly pack up and leave. Ominis quietly said goodbye, mostly to Mc, before using his wand to navigate next period’s classroom.

Before Mc could even register his goodbye Sebastian took her wrist, pulling her in a spin to face him. She blinked in surprise, suppressing another harsh blush from appearing as that charming smile she dreaded spread across his face. “I want to meet you later….in the undercroft” he growled in her ear, brushing her hair behind it as he rubbed her arm possessively. Mc bit down on her lip, knowing she shouldn’t be letting this happen again, determined to say no to him for once. Another visit to Sebastian wasn’t going to help her fix this love triangle… but that face made it bloody hard to refuse.

“Uhm… okay, but I can’t be long. I promised to spend time with…” she trailed off, realising he’d react. The dark haired slytherin raised an eyebrow, prompting her to finish. This boy could see through her lies like polished glass- there was no use. She sighed.

“Ominis”

Sebastian rolled his eyes in distaste but strangely didn’t say anything and let go of her.

“Undercroft.” He repeated, before disappearing to his class, leaving Mc stood there alone, having a good idea of what lay in store for her later…

I feel like Hogwarts Legacy has done a much better job in creating characters fitting into their houses. 😅

I know in the Harry Potter books it's about 'actions are more important than just character traits, but it feels weird, when Harry for example is very much a Gryffindor at his core in the first place - like he didn't really need to go against his traits at all. 😅

When it comes to the houses I always ask myself what the character would do in a stressful situation - I think that's always a good indicator of where they belong.

As Harry dreams about Sirius beeing tortured by Voldemort, his first reaction is to attack, to get into action, to find him, fight everone who stands in his way and done - simple, reckless, a little stupid Gryffindor logic.

Hermione on the other side (I know she's technically a Gryffindor, but that's the point right? In my mind she would have been better off in Ravenclaw), thinks in that exact same situation. She wants to make sure it's not a trap, thinks about the dangers that will await them and tries to prepare herself and the others for it.

I feel in Hogwarts Legacy it's much more clear.

Natsai is very adventurous, her first reaction to Rookwood and Harlow is to fight them. She throws herself in dangerous situations and just wings it from there on.

Garreth doesn't care what others think of him and just does his thing. Could his potions be dangerous to him or other students? Very much so. Does he care? Not at all.

I had my problems with Leander, but I really like now that they put him into Gryffindor because I think he shows the bad sides of the traits of his house very well. He's highly competitive (I think competitive and ambitious are different things) to a point were he becomes arrogant and annoying. He wants to fight and learn dangerous spells, to a point were he's rude to a professor. I don't think he's a coward, he's just not able to let actions follow his big words.

Amit loves knowledge just because of knowledge itself. He is easily fascinated by other cultures and probably everything around him and tries to understand it. He wants to know the 'how' and 'why' and is very creative when it comes to problem solving.

Poppy is brave, but always because of a reason, not for the adventure itself. She wants to protect and has a very soft spot for the weaker ones. If problems arise, she'll ask for help and has overall a very caring personality.

Ominis first reaction, when he catches MC leaving the Undercroft is to threaten her with his status and connections. A behaviour caused by the stress of feeling betrayed and a clear indicator of his house. 😅

And do we even have to talk about Sebastian? 😅 If there's a problem, his first reaction is to charm, to manipulate, to taunt and to gather information so that it's more likely he succeeds.

The trio all sleeveless 🖤

I’m new to digital art but this idea became an obsession so I had to draw it <3

[slytherinsallows]

I can’t draw, but I had to take matters into my own hands…

I desperately need someone to draw Garreth in this

A quick bathroom break 🌶️🌶️🌶️

// Hey everyone! I’ve been gone a few months but I’ve finally decided to start writing again! I have some wips and a couple fresh ideas and new parts of old stories I’m the works so stay tuned and enjoy this horny oneshot 🤭

Summary: Sebastian gets a little excited thinking about Mc in class, resulting in a quick bathroom break….

Tags: solo masturbation, fantasising

Sebastian twitched in his chair. How in Merlin’s name had this class only started five minutes ago?

It felt like someone had used a bloody time turner…

He sighed and ran his hand through his messy brown hair, fidgeting his legs, trying not to think about last nights dream at all costs…

Mc sprawled out on his bed, soft and delicate legs spread in front of him, her lips curbed into a seductive smile. It was agonising him.

No, he couldn’t think about this here. After all, this little game she liked to play with him was becoming…dangerous, to say the least.

All the professors words felt like gobbledegook at this point, his mind deviously exploring back to her body. Those curves, those hips, her sweet soft skin, delicious enough to give him a sugar rush.

He groaned as he felt a bump between his legs start to grow with each passing thought.

Fuck…

His eyes fluttered around the class, hoping no one would notice his strange behaviour… but the more dull the lecture became, the more he’d find his mind wandering back to the her body.

It wasn’t just in his dreams either, she was a tease constantly for him, making him wait for some, for any, relief. It was clear she loved this effect she had on him, and for once in Sebastian’s life, he was wrapped around her finger.

The bulge was getting worse now, painfully obvious if anyone were to look at him. He was going to have to go and take care of himself at this rate…

His cock twitched in annoyance, begging him to go and sort it out, and his impulsivity took over…

He waited for the class to become distracted and quickly excused himself, be-lining it to the boys bathrooms. Throwing the door open, locking it, struggling with his belt…

Sebastian groaned, unable to wait, pawing at the zip on his crotch, desperate to rub one out. Once his member was finally free, he leaned one hand on the stall, his other finding its way to his pulsing member.

He rested his head on the door of the stall as he began working his length, his large veiny hands wasting no time in satisfying his hunger…

Sebastian was big, and only Mc could do this to him… those gorgeously glazed pink lips wrapped around the end of his cock, the thought of her breasts pressing against him as he fucked her… it was all too much for the poor boy to bear.

Thrusting into his hand, he imagined it was her, imagined looking into her big doe eyes as he fucked her, imagined kissing every inch of her skin. Oh how he longed for these day dreams to cease, and actually become his nightly reality.

The slytherin gritted his teeth as he already felt himself becoming close, his back starting to arch against the bathroom stall, his member begging for release.

“Mc…”, he breathed out as his thrusts became harder, faster, his hair becoming even more messy with each movement, his once somewhat tidy uniform now astray.

He pictured her face in his mind, completely giving into his urges and desires now, shamelessly groaning her name under his breath.

“Such a good girl”

His high was nearing as he pictured their bodies in his mind, just like they had done in his nightly dreams hundreds of times over, never getting tiresome. Sebastian bit his lip as he released into his hand, a low grunt escaping his body as relief washed over him.

He stood there for a while, bent over the stall, panting, hair a mess as he attempted to compose himself to re enter society. The slytherin zipped his fly back up shakily, tending to his mess of a uniform before unlocking the door and stepping out into the corridor. Just when he was about to thank god no one heard or saw him, the very girl of his temptations appeared. God this timing was mocking him at this point..

Mc smiled softly at the boy, happy to see him. “Hey Sebastian!” She giggled as she passed him, innocent to anything he had just done in her absence.

Sebastian was indefinitely flustered, a rare sight for anyone to see, as he ran his hand back through his hair and tried not to let his eyes explore her body too obviously, as if she were some kind of slab of meat.

“Hello love” he managed, trying to remain his usually confident composure despite his embarrassment.

“You look like you just ran a mile? Peeves been after you again?” She giggled, eyes flirting the whole time.

Sebastian nodded hastily. “Uh…yeah! that bloody poltergeist!” He shook his head, relieved she hadn’t suspected anything else…

“Well I was thinking maybe you wanted to unwind later? At mine?” She asked, twirling her hair subconsciously. “You look like you need to…relax a little.”

“Sure, I’ll be there!” He accepted hastily before mc waved him off, hips swaying agonisingly as she walked away.

Maybe there was a chance he would get to fulfil those desires after all…
