#but at the same time i wanted to put some of minerva's introspection into it for y'all

[braverytaught]

☯ + a Snape-shaped hole in the window.

send a canon scene for me to write from minerva’s perspective || accepting? i guess?

     Minerva’s mind is reeling.

     Her body is moving with calm purpose. This is a skill she has developed over many, many years as a professor and, dare she say it, occasional fighter – the ability to let a veneer of businesslike practicality run the show even when her brain is scrambling to catch up. She’s marching swiftly down the corridors, and to anyone else’s eye she would look like a solitary figure roused from her bed, still in her dressing gown. But she is keenly aware of the invisible footsteps pattering along behind her as she descends Ravenclaw tower and hurries through the castle.

     She had not been sleeping, before Amycus’s yelling had drawn her from her quarters to investigate. How could she? After Terry Boot’s outburst about Potter and dragons at dinner, after the terse orders Snape and his pet Death Eaters had given to the rest of the staff, their manner somewhere between frightened and excited, warning them not to speak with the students…They were expecting something, clearly. Whether it had to do with Potter or not, whether those rumors about the dragon had any truth or not, Minerva didn’t know – but she could not rest on a night when Death Eaters were feeling anticipatory.

     And yet the last thing she had expected was to have two fugitive teenagers trotting invisible at her heels, planning to make a stand against He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named himself. The last thing she expected was to be planning siege tactics in her head, composing a list of the best defensive spells they can muster as her Patronuses streak away to tell Pomona, Filius, and Horace to prepare to fight.

     To prepare to fight.

     Even as alarm and fear hastens her footsteps, even as her body aches from the abuse it has taken over the past year, the thought puts a steel strength in her step, a fresh elation of defiance. She did not expect this. She did not dare hope or fear for it on this night. But she is ready for it. If this is truly the day when all things come to a head, if Potter says that his mission here is important enough to risk the wrath of He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named in person, then she is ready to put herself between them.

     She is ready to take her home back.

     A sound. A faint footstep apart from the invisible ones just behind her. Minerva draws in her breath as she draws out her wand, falling without thought into a dueling stance. “Who’s there?”

     “It is I.” And Severus Snape’s dark eyes glitter in the light from her wand as he steps out from behind a suit of armor.

     Minerva meets his gaze, and feels the usual swoop of cold anger in her gut. Unlike her, he is not in nightclothes; clearly he’s been ready and waiting for something to happen. His eyes bore into her, and she closes her mind at once, putting up the Occlumantic walls she’d learned to build long ago, during the first war. She is no great Occlumens, but she can put up enough resistance to make him work for it. There was a time I never hid my mind from you, Severus, she thinks bitterly.

     “Where are the Carrows?”

     “Wherever you told them to be, I expect, Severus,” she says with icy politeness. She does not lower her wand. Somewhere behind her are Potter and Lovegood; she prays they have the sense to stay silent.

     But Severus, keen as always, is glancing around the corridor as if trying to sense the presence of the Cloak. Can you read a mind you cannot see, if you suspect it is there? she wonders suddenly. But no – Legilimency requires eye contact. Severus could discover Potter’s presence, but not without overt spellcasting. He only suspects; he cannot know.

     “I was under the impression that Alecto had apprehended an intruder.”

     “Really? And what gave you that impression?” But it’s a foolish question, as made clear as Severus flexes his arm slightly. Of course. He would have felt Alecto press her Mark, just as Amycus had – so he knows that, if Potter is not here, then Alecto at least believes him to be. 

     “Oh, but naturally.” Her voice drips with derision. “You Death Eaters have your own private means of communication, I forgot.”

     His eyes are still flittering about the air around her. At the very least that means he isn’t focusing on her mind, little comfort that it is. Look at me, you snake. She’d rather his focus be on her, distracted from his attempts to divine Potter’s presence. Again she prays he has the sense to stay still and silent. He’s never been good at holding back, as his stunt with Amycus back there proved –

     “I did not know it was your night to patrol the corridors, Minerva.”

     “You have some objection?” 

     “I wonder what could have brought you out of bed at this late hour?” How long, she wonders, will they keep up this dance they’ve been doing all year? Pretending at civility. Pretending that they do not hate each other. I will not forgive you, Severus, for earning my trust and then betraying it. All year, she has treated him with the greatest disdain she can muster, while still deferring to his station as headmaster. Barely. Enough to keep her in the castle. Enough to keep her post, even while she takes swipes at him where she can and blocks him at all possible turns. It has been a months-long game of cat and mouse – or cat and snake – and she is ready to drop the pretense.

     “I thought I heard a disturbance.” That is putting Amycus’s bellowing mildly.

     “Really? But all seems calm.”

     And now, now he is looking into her eyes, those black irises boring into hers, pressing against her walls. A skilled and delicate Legilimens such as Severus can slink into your mind without you ever knowing, but she is resisting, and so she can feel the weight of his magic beginning to drive itself through her defenses. She can resist, but she has never overstated her own power; Severus is a more skillful Legilimens than she is an Occlumens. If she stands here and does nothing, he will see Potter, not in the corridor behind her, but in her own mind.

     “Have you seen Harry Potter, Minerva? Because if you have, I must insist–”

     And she moves. Without warning, without hesitation, drawing on all her experience as a duelist, Minerva slashes her wand through the air, the spell a mere flash of intent in her mind. But he was prepared, of course – his Shield Charm blossoms with a force such that she feels the push of his magic scattering her own. 

     But she is already reacting. And in a terrible, visceral way, it feels good, meeting Severus’s narrowed eyes in the flamelight of the torch she pulls from its bracket. No more holding back her anger, her wrath. No more trying to protect her students with words or evasions or silent standoffs. No more watching her home and the people she loves suffer and wither under the brutal hand of a man she had once called an ally.

     Finally, he will feel the true heat of her fury.

     She sends the flames toward Severus in a lash of fire that he transforms into a serpent – of course a snake, does the man have no imagination – that she, quick as thought, dissipates into smoke, and she turns the smoke into knives, and this is why you should have paid attention in your lessons, Severus, because potions are revenge served cold, but this is what Transfiguration can do, it is precise and unforgiving and deadly, and she wields it like a master; her very wand is made for it.

     The daggers fly too fast for him to Vanish or Transfigure, and Minerva takes brutal satisfaction in watching him avoid them only by hiding behind a suit of armor. Your chest next time, she does not have time to think but rather intends. There are many things she does not have time to think, but they are there anyway, in the swiftness of her arm, in the magic crackling beneath her skin, in the fierce line of her lips. This is for my students and my friends. This is for betraying my trust. This is for Albus. This is for Hogwarts. 

     Filius’s voice squeaks out from behind her, but Minerva doesn’t break her gaze, doesn’t let any of her focus leave Severus Snape. She raises her wand again, preparing to Transfigure the very metal Severus is cowering behind, but Filius beats her to it, and she hastily dispels the building magic as his own takes over, animating the armor. But Severus wriggles out of it, as he does everything, and sends it flying back toward them. And he does not stay and fight, he does not stand – he flees, as he always does.

     Not this time.

     Minerva chases after him, her tall frame pushing her ahead of her colleagues, but she is not as fast as a man thirty years her junior, and he skids into a classroom before she can raise her wand to bind him. Always running, always sneaking, always choosing survival over morals, over principle, over everything but his own worthless hide – she enters the classroom just in time to see him dive through the window, and her Stunning Spell shoots through the broken glass, hitting nothing.

     “Coward!” she screams, and the hatred is raw in her throat, rage rasping against her vocal cords as she leans against the window frame to watch the dark shape speeding away into the night. “COWARD!” She knows it to be his least favorite word, the deepest insult one can wield against him, and she screams it in the hope that it will echo in his ears all the way off the grounds.

     Very well, she thinks with furious resolve as her colleagues catch up to her, peering out the window with exclamations of anger and dismay. Very well. Severus Snape has left the castle.

     She will make sure he never sets foot in it again.

Princeling

Summary: After seeing what the Dursley’s are when it comes to Muggles, Professor Minerva McGonagall makes the judgement call to take Harry in before the worse can happen.

Part 1

Previously:

Severus looked down at the tabby and said, “This war has taken enough lives. Let’s not waste another.”

Minerva nodded and lay down letting the man make his way to the Forbidden Forest to the heard of thestrals that was there.

Part II

“We need to find a way to read the Potter will,” Severus said as he landed the thestrals a few ways away from the actual neighborhood. It wouldn’t do them any good to be seen by anyone. 

Minerva meowed from her place in the basket, her way of agreeing to what he’d said. 

“Lead the way Minerva,” he said putting the basket down.

She looked up at him and blinked owlishly, “Meow.”

He sighed exasperatedly and said, “I’m not carrying you.”

“Meow,” she patted the edge of the basket.

He sighed and grabbed the basket handles making sure the thestrals stayed where they'd landed before following Minerva’s meowing down the road to the house. 

It wasn’t hard to miss and he rolled his eyes when he found the shivering bundled that is one year old Harry Potter.

“He didn’t even bother placing a warming charm on him!?” Seethed Severus in a whisper. 

Minerva looked down in shame. She had not considered doing so and thought Albus had done it while she was calming Hagrid down. She should have double checked.

“Don’t worry yourself sick Minerva,” Severus whispered, “Albus wouldn’t be Albus if he didn’t have everyone’s unconditional blind trust and admiration as the leader of the light.”

She lay in the basket still in disbelief at herself for not checking. 

He picked up the the shivering babe and placed him beside Minerva who wiggled under the blanket to help warm Harry.

Severus placed a mild warming charm on Harry and pocketed the letter before making his way to where the thestrals is and fly to Cokeworth. 

Aberforth greeted them in the backyard as the thestral landed smoothly as to not wake the babe.

“If you can sit with him by the fire and bring his body temperature up some before unraveling him from the blanket,” Severus instructed carefully passing the basket to Aberforth who looked more than a little surprised at seeing where Minerva lay dozing next to the babe who had a death grip on her fur. 

“She’s almost as asleep as the babe,” Aberforth said in awe. 

“I’d watch out if I were you,” Severus warned, “We found the babe shivering and not a hint or residue of a warming charm.”

Aberforth’s eyes widened in wonder at that, “Did he not...?”

Severus shook his head and flew off to Hogwarts leaving Aberforth alone with a baby and a probably very pissed off tabby. 

He made his way back inside to Severus’ sitting room and did as was told. 

Minerva managed to get out of Harry’s hold and jumped out of the basket. 

“Minerva,” Aberforth began, “It’s not your fault.”

Minerva shook her fur out at that and jumped on the sofa next to him. 

Aberforth dared to lay a hand on her back. 

The baby cooed in his sleep. 

Aberforth shifted in his seat and picked up the bundle from the Moses basket. 

Minerva meowed as Aberforth unraveled the babe from his blanket, after making sure his temperature was alright. 

“He’s alright Pet,” Aberforth said tenderly as he ran his fingers over her coat, “Best not wake him dear.”

Just as he said this, the babe yawned and his Lily green eyes shown as the fire made them almost glow. 

Minerva let out a cat like scoffed laugh and jumped off the sofa to step into the hallway. 

“No need to laugh,” Aberforth said with a gruff as a now human Minerva walked in her outer cloak in hand. 

He gave the babe a gentle bounce as Minerva set her cloak down and took a seat beside him. 

“I do hope he’s not as head first as his father,” Minerva said running a knuckle gently down the one year old’s cheek. 

“He’s going to be a pleasant mix of his parents I think,” Aberforth said with a knowing nod. 

Harry got wiggly so Abe picked him up underneath his armpits and stood him on his lap allowing the babe to wave his arm around. 

“You might need to shave,” Minerva said giving his shoulder a gentle shove.

“I can finally take this blasted glamour off then,” he said with a grateful sigh as he continued bouncing the babe. 

“What do you mean?” Minerva asked curiously not having known this. 

“There came a point during his time with one Gellert Grindelwald that he got it in his head that I took too much to our mother in looks. Grindelwald took it upon himself to modify my physical appearance to look more like Albus.”

“And you’ve never taken it off?” Minerva said in numb shock at his revelation. 

He shook his head and said, “I didn’t see the need for it. Albus didn’t do or say anything especially after he was deemed second to Merlin himself after his fight with Grindelwald.”

“You must have been a lady killer then,” Minerva said trying to lighten up the mood. 

He shrugged at that and focused on keeping Harry from tugging at his beard. 

Minerva observed as Aberforth stood placing the lad on his hip and lit up the room with a wave of his hand. 

“Aren’t you a charming babe eh?” he said talking to Harry in a soft and tender tone. 

“You’re avoiding the question,” she said pursing her lips one brow in the air. 

He gave a very un-Dumbledore shrug and kept his attention on the baby.

“Come now Abe,” she said softy, as to not upset Harry, “What is it?”

“Nothing, really,” he said honestly tickling Harry under his chin causing the babe to giggle. 

Minerva looked like she was going to push on one matter. Luckily for him though, a tired looking Severus came through the fire looking like he’d run a marathon and was breathing like it too.

“Pardon my lateness,” he said trying to catch his breath, “Your brother is on a rampage this evening and is most likely going to hold an Order meeting these days. Aside from that, I don’t think he suspects anything.”

The older couple nodded at this and sighed in relief. When it came to Albus they had some time before anything needed to be rushed. 

“What should we do then?” Minerva asked clearly out of her element. 

Aberforth adjusted his hold on Harry as the babe got antsy.

“Yes lad?” He asked the babe as he plopped him on his bottom atop the table.

Harry pointed to Severus and extended his arms to him. 

Severus gave in to the boy and took him from Aberforth’s arms. 

The two stared at each other. One in curiosity and the other clearly at a loss as to what to do from there. Severus for his part, took this time to do some introspection. Not only regarding how he feels, or will feel, towards Harry, but also towards his parents and their respective friends. Also what this will mean for when the Dark Lord would ultimately return, as Albus so kindly told him on his way back to Spinner’s End after flying in on the thestral. 

There was no love lost between him and James Potter, he knew that. But he also knew he’d never condemn a child for the sins of the father. And like hell would he let Albus poison him against Harry for looking like James and having Lily’s eyes. The same eyes staring at him in wonder and curiosity. He could see them in Harry’s eyes...James and Lily. Severus isn’t a fool, he knew that this boy would always carry both as their son. He would always miss his friend and childhood love. And knew he’d care for her son as if he were his own son. As it shall be. 

“Before we begin...” Severus said with a deep sigh, “There is something you both must know.”

How I would do Fairy Tail’s Ending

Okay were getting to the end of Fairy Tail shortly and it doesn’t look like it’s going to be what any expected. But given everything that’s happen I really don’t know if it’ll be satisfying and chances are it won’t be. So this is how I would end FT in what I’d consider satisfying.

With universe one dispelled and Magnolia returned to normal the DS are all meeting up in it while fighting off Alvarez Soldiers. (Hey plot convenience still exists)

Natsu meets Zeref again (No lost Iced Shell or Gray meeting) and Zeref with no more spriggans knows he no more guards and Acnologia will be arriving and kill him.

Acnologia looms over Magnolia and all DS assemble to meet him and he reverts to human form.

The DS attempt to rush him at once with attack after attack but Acnolia brushes off. The Cobra says they have to act smart and from what he heard from Acnologia’s thoughts is he keeps expecting just barrages as that’s all anyone has tried on him.

Natsu and Laxus charge forward and attempt to take Acnologia head on as they are the physically strongest at base and Wendy enchanting them to boost but even then, Acnologia can take it.

Out of the shadows pops Rogue with Gajeel and Sting in shadow modes going for a sneak attack. Acnologia jumps back to dodge saying he’d bet they’d try something only to be taken by surprise when Cobra comes in over head (boosted by Wendy to increase his speed) and strikes Acnologia saying he could hear each of his thoughts and was a step ahead of him.

The 7 DS the release a 7 way roar blasting Acnologia but Acnologia enters dragon form and describes the might of the Magic Dragon Slayer.

He reveals his technique called “King Roar” which is basically firing a roar into the air then it dispersing and raining down on battlefield (kinda imagine Draco meteor from pokemon)

The Ds realize they can’t stop all their teammates from being hit with this rain of roars however, Gildarts use crush on one roar yelling that they can fight for themselves and the DS can handle Acnologia

We get every character contributing to countering a roar, Lucy using Metria on one, Gray using Devil’s rage, Erza in the adamantine armor, Minerva using territory, Lyon making many ice shields etc. (This is a way for everyone to be involved in war because well, it’s war.) This faling roar is realized by the wizard saints who are limping back to the battlefield.

The DS all try to use their dual modes on Acnologia but find it barely keeps him back. Cobra while seeing all these dual dragons wonders about why he’s here, he was only suppose to fight Zeref but now he fights Acnologia.

Getting some introspection on Cobra’s part he thinks how he’s been traaded around from one cause to the next, from finding Nirvana, to sttopping dragons because the council ordered it, and to joining to fight Zeref. Cobra yells that for the first time he’ll do what he wants and that’s protecting people and killing Acnologia.

Utilizing his sound magic he meets Acnologia head on latches on to his back but Acnologia in a burst of magic brushes him off as he lays on the ground. It looks like Cobra’s attack was pointless but the poison got into Acnologia and while it won’t kill him, it is slowing him down putting all the DS on equal footing.

Laxus seeing Cobra fall is reminded of Makarov and thinks about his journey and now that Makarov is gone it’s his job to look after all these children he left and Laxus releases a new secret technique (Because lets be real “Roaring thunder” was lame) but he’s over stressed his injuries he passes out.

The remaining 5 still use their dual forms to fight back but all Acnologia does is taught them. As we cut away to Mest who sees this battle and he teleports using direct line and makes it to the saints and asks that since they’re council members they can release satellite square.

Hyberion says that they can’t use etherion as there is no one to bind the elements need for it and states that even if they could everyone would be caught in the blast and die. Mest tells him he doesn’t want them to use etherion but just fire the raw ethernano, and at first they are confused but Mest explains that he saw Wendy go into dragon force in tartaros from the amount of ethernano in the air.

They Fire the ethernano and it hits, Acnologia thinking this is a joke but the DS being eating the ethernano and go dragon force.

While This happens, Zeref is sitting alone in FT and just hoping Acnologia will finish up and then kill him. But Brandish (remember she’s still around) walks into the guild hall asking what’s Zerefs doing.

When she hears his pessimistic response she slaps Zeref in the face telling him he’s an idiot. That he’s their emperor, he is the symbol Alvarez, he is their spirit, and that this is why ishgar won, they stood for their beliefs. So how could Alvarez  win when they stand for a man who won't lead and is ready to die.

Zeref does the usual “you wouldn’t understand” but Mavis arrives and tells him that she suffers fro the same problem as he does but she is still able to live her life. She asks him if he loves her and he says yes and Mavis says that’s proof of him controlling his life, he can find love so it’s possible he can find happines.

Mavis asks Zeref to help her come up with a way to use Fairy Heart so it won’t destroy everyone and only Acnologia.

In dragon force the DS are busting out all the stops, from enchantment, to unison raid, to secret arts. We get to see Sting and Rogue even say they consider themselves at Natsu and Gajeel’s level, their not just fan boys of theirs.

Acnologia just keeps pushing back but realizes there is a strategy going on between Natsu, Wendy and Gajeel as well Sting and Rogue. Natsu is attacking the most while Gajeel defends and both are being enchanted by Wendy increasing these stats. Sting and Rogue are similarly attacking but always hiting spots on Acnologia that he’s not defending from Natsu.

The twin dragons break Acnologia wings but the are injured in the process

Acnologia reveals a magic he’s crafted over the years call “King’s Feast” which allows him to eat all the ethernano in the atmosphere similar to the Dorma Anim.

All powered up it’s harder for Gajeel to defend but he says not to worry.

Wendy has finally had enough and says that she must fight even if it means sacrifice as she thinks of Chelia. Wendy uses the power of dragon force to use Deus Sema (a weaker one but still a big meteor) Dropping it on Acnologia.

Wendy can’t stand anymore and gives out as Natsu says he can’t lose heree as it be disrespectful to everyone who got him here. Acnologia tells him he’s alone but Natsu says he’s not alone because even if he dies then all of Fiore will fight back but Acnologia laughs saying only a dragon slayer can kill a dragon.

Natsu channels what he’s got into a fire dragon’s iron fist but Acnologia just charges magic into his fist and when the 2 collide Natsu is swatted away.

Natsu is on the ground as Acnologia uses King's Feast but expands it to encompass almost all of fiore. Acnologia laughs and states not only did Natsu fail but everyone has barely any magic left from the first roar to survive another and since the atmosphere is drained they only have the little that remains inside them.

As Mavis and Zeref are working out how to use Fairy Heart on Acnologia the book of END opens since lack of an atmosphere with ethernano

Natsu (END) gets up but only to delay Acnologia with his demonic power he fights back but Acnologia has so much Magic he can release another king's roar and wipe every on out this time.

Suddenly Mavis, Zeref, and Brandish appear and state Mavis is Fairy Heart and he couldn't absorb it cause it was internal and an infinite source of magic.

When Fairy Heart is activated Acnologia laughs at how weak the release is, but it's revealed that it isn't small cause it's lack of power but rather Brandish decreased the mass so releasing it wouldn't wipe out everything

The attack blows apart Acnologia's mid back and wings, (Now he looks similar to Igneel when he was ripped apart)

Acnologia is on his back but states that only a slayer can kill a dragon he’ll just activate King’s feast and find a way to escape.

END stands up and begins to walk towards Acnologia and punches Acnologia's left pectoral but his hide is tough and the fire barely scratches it. He keeps trying but is failing to break through

Acnologia just states as dragons they are beasts, and in their world the strongest is king and there can only be one strongest in that world.

Natsu yells that this isn’t the same world 400 years ago and that a world where only one is at the top is over, this era was made out of people helping each other and sharing this world.

Gajeel joins in the scratching away at the hide saying that he’ll help and other DS recover trying to tear away the hide.

They use what little they have and unison raid with all 7 punching Acnologia’s heart at once.

Gray, Lucy, Happy, and Erza arrive (What just cause the Acnologia fight is over doesn’t mean the endings over) crying and saying it’s over and Natsu says it’s not. He’s END and he will most likely become like Acnologia and destroy everyone.

He knows that he’s got some time before he become that vile demon and asks Gray to kill him now. Lucy yells no and tells Natsu that this has to stop, he is not allowed to act selfish anymore. Erza joins in saying he's going against what he taught her in tower of heaven. Gray says he won't do it either as he can’t kill his friend, one he already tried to kill.

Natsu says he knows that all he's been is selfish, but now it's time for him to grow up and think about everyone else and that's why he should die. Natsu asks gray if he can sit through the pain of losing Juvia again or does he want to lose the new family he created for himself because that's what END will do. Gray remembers how hard it was to kill silver and can't bare anyone having to kill their family but Gray yells he doesn't want to kill a member of his family to protect all of it.

Lucy yells at Erza to talk sense into Natsu and Gray but Erza explains the days of her babying them is over they are adults now it's their descion (she says while holding back tears)

Gray finally breaks down and says he will do it and walks towards Natsu, Lucy is crying but remembers what Aquarius taught her in tartaros.

Gray uses Ice Devil's zeroth long sword to impale Natsu. But before we see the damage Natsu says "Guess we finally settled it"

Due to freezing Natsu's body is cracking and in his final moments he thinks of everyone in FT and says he loves them all. He the see's what looks like light and then only he sees fairies floating above him. He mutters "They really do have tails" and it's a signal that journey is over and he knows the answer 

The war ends when Lucy walks to Zerfg and the two size up and Zeref kneels before Lucy and says the war is over and Alverez admits defeat.

Happy Picks up Natsu's scarf as people look at the guild and Laxus says they can just rebuild.

Here is a one year timeskip and the last chapter cover page is a group of all those who have sacrificed themselves in FT (like Simon, Ultear, Makarov) and it has Natsu holding a sign that says thank you for 11 years of publication (Hey I think it be cool last cover)

The time skip shows Lucy has written a story about FT and says even though the book is at an end and people have come and gone, the dream of Fairy Tail will never END

 We see other people’s endings (i’m not doing any ship crap, just imagine it yourself) We see Zeref in a similar lumen histiore crystal in prison. We see he appointed Brandish as the new head of Alvarez and will rule in his place.

Then Happy comes to Lucy saying Bora is back in Hargeon and Lucy laughs saying lets kick his butt as they run off and in Lucy's book it's open to the dedicated to page and says "Natsu, Gray, Erza, Wendy, and all the friends I've made along the way."

The End. Yeah that’s how I’d end the series. I feel that it be the best way to do the climax and ending and felt it stayed true to FT. I hoped you enjoyed.

Some HP fic ideas - HHr

So last night, when I was trying to sleep (so badly btw, I was so tired but couldn’t sleep) my brain decided to do a rough outline of 2 HHr fics (actually idk if the first one counts, but what the hey).

1)  Canon compliant - Epilogue compliant one, where Harry and Hermione kind of acknowledge to themselves (separately, kind of inner monologue thing in passing), that it could’ve gone that way. Kind of like an introspective kind of thing. But you know it’s one of those thought by the wayside because they’re both happy with their SO.

2)  the second would be more a series of loosely (or is it?) connected one-shots (not epilogue compliant). In which:

Ron and Hermione already broke up. Their bickering sometimes escalates into bigger arguments and they realise, the sparks that fly have more often than not tend to implode (not in the good way). So they end up parting ways as lovers but remain friends, because bloody hell man, they’ve been through a lot together to let this ruin their friendship.

Harry and Ginny are together but their relationship is strained. There are times when Ginny feels like she’s blocked from Harry and she can’t reach him emotionally but it’s a part of him that Ron and Hermione can reach. Their also at two different stages at their lives.

After the war, Harry just wants a damn break but he goes into Auror training because that’s what was expected of him (no Harry that’s not so..). And then there’s Teddy that he has to take care of and trying to figure it out. (He has help of course but he’s still Teddy’s main provider). Whereas Ginny wants to live. The way already took her brother from her and she’s not going to let it beat her down. She’s just starting out her life with the Holly Harpies and at the end of the day they just want tell different things.

Harry lowkey worries that breaking up with Ginny will make him lose that tether to the Weasley family. Ron high-key pushes some sense into him.Yeah Ginny is his sister, but Harry’s an unofficial Weasley. So there. Yeah there’s going to be some awkwardness, but they’ll get pass that. (There’s a little moment here where Hermione enters the room again and she’s smiling at Ron like -look at this boy-man, they are times when she wonder why he’s one of her best friends and then others when she’s like, this is one of my best friends.)

Ron has a secret gf. No one knows who it is. (I don’t know who it is)

Harry quits the Auror training, because. No. Just no. He’s not having it. There are too many flashbacks, too many deaths to recount and he’s not the same person he was when he originally wanted to be an Auror.

Harry Job Seeking. 

Harry seeing the job request letter from Hogwarts for a DoA position. (it seems the position still has its cursed status. Or maybe it’s just waiting for you to fill it *winkwink* *nudgenudge*)

Harry takes up the job, but what to do with Teddy?

Hermione, Ron and the Weasleys offer to watch over Teddy while Harry gets stuff sorted out with Hogwarts (there’s  a two-week orientation before the start of the school semester where teachers have to meet discuss teacherly stuff, plan syllabus, go over who’s doing the rounds for manning the banned areas, etc..)

Hogwarts has daycare for staff members. Who knew. Not me?

Substitute potions teacher Hermione [for only about 1 week - the amount of hw the students get *shudders*] (dude…Idk how that happened. It was right before I fell asleep)

How does she substitute teach while still doing her regular job…Return of the timeturner baby..

Teddy missing.

Flabbergasted Harry.

I do know how to look after children Mr. Potter.

Regular-ish meet-ups at the Three Broomsticks Inn with Ron, Hermione and Harry.

Return of the invisibility cloak (

Christmas at the Weasleys. Ginny and Luna dating. Yeah, well so are Harry and Hermione. Molly is speechless. Well Ron is dating some mystery girl. Mystery girl is some Muggle Ron met. Angelina has a bun in the oven.

Fun times.

Mother-daughter, Ginny-Molly bonding.

…. I think that was it …there might have been more.. I’m almost certain there was, but I can’t remember. Some things may be revised.. I’m planning on doing a re-read of the HP series, so I can make sure characters are in character…hopefully I write this… I’m looking forward to it
