~PERSONALITY~

Traits:

Positive:

Lucky: For some reason, Lith has super good luck for the most trivial things, like managing to get a cauldron just before Potions class starts because she forgot hers. She assumes it must be the universe’s compensation for cursing her.

Resourceful: To any problem she encounters, from a forgotten homework to escaping death, she will always have a set of solutions already elaborated in her mind. They might not always work as she wants, but they certainly save her ass.

Intelligent: She is a nerd and an overachiever. She enjoys learning and hyperfixates on a lot of interesting subjects during the course of her life.

Neutral:

Introverted: While she can handle big groups, Lith gets stressed out quickly. She prefers being on her own or with a few friends.

Daydreamer: Lith’s head is always on the clouds, she has whole worlds inside, but never actually gets to express them, not that she minds. She also has a very vivid imagination.

Negative:

Insecure: She gains more confidence as she grows older, but she will always doubt her abilities and her own worth.

Workaholic: No matter what she does, she has to give her best. That causes many sleepless nights and some eyebags once in a while.

No emotional intelligence: When it comes to matters of the heart, she has no clue how to proceed. She finds it difficult to read the mood of a room or identify when someone is feeling down. In the same way that she has a hard time figuring out her own emotions and naming them.

Description:

Something something I’ll write it later

Other:

Likes: Solitude, art, books, muggle trinkets, sweets, winter.

Best Classes:

Charms: Lith was taught charms by Jacob since he began Hogwarts when he noticed his sister had a particular proficiency with them, so when Lith arrived she was a bit ahead of her peers and continued to hone her skills on more advanced charms on her own.

History of Magic: Lith has always been a History nerd and History of Magic was a class she enjoyed and easily excelled in. Not much because of the Professor but Rowan and the study groups they would organize.

Worst Classes:

Flying: When in her human form, she is terrified of heights and hates flying.

Herbology: Lith and plants is something that is just not meant to be.

Favorite Professors:

Silvanus Kettleburn: He is eccentric, he is encouraging and he cares not about the world except for his beloved magical creatures. Lith admires his dedication and appreciates a non conventional teacher like him.

Patricia Rakepick: While Lith never fully trusted the curse breaker, she would be lying if she said that she did not enjoy Rakepick’s classes. She was probably the best professor of DADA she ever had.

Least Favorite Professors:

Severus Snape: Despite being her Head of House, Lith never liked Snape. He could mean well and she would be grateful for that but please be at a minimum distance of 6 feet apart. His attitude was the opposite of encouraging and she hated it.

Madam Hooch: She is scary :(( please don’t yell at her for not knowing how to fly she doesn’t need a broom anyway ;-;.

~MAGIC~

1st Wand:

Willow wood

10

Surprisingly swishy

Unicorn hair core

“Willow is an uncommon wand wood with healing power, and I have noted that the ideal owner for a willow wand often has some (usually unwarranted) insecurity, however well they may try and hide it. While many confident customers insist on trying a willow wand (attracted by their handsome appearance and well-founded reputation for enabling advanced, non-verbal magic) my willow wands have consistently selected those of greatest potential, rather than those who feel they have little to learn. It has always been a proverb in my family that he who has furthest to travel will go fastest with willow.” (Pottermore.)

2nd Wand:

Macpalxochitl wood

113/4

Slightly Yielding

Huactli feather core

Disclaimer: this is my own lore.

Macpalxochitl, or the Devil’s Hand Tree, became a popular wood to make wands out of when the afrancesamiento of Mexico began. Old chroniclers would often refer to this tree as “worthy of any castle and palace”, so it was sought by wizards of high status. Nowadays it’s existence is very rare and only a few wandmakers are allowed to handle this tree. Wands of this wood tend to be stubborn, but they will remain loyal to their first owner. It is said that it’s better suited to healing magic, but that doesn’t mean it’s not able to turn to the Dark Arts.

The Huactli  is a strange eagle-like bird that feeds on snakes. Its peculiarity is that it’s is able to speak the language of men and predict their future. It is said that if you hear it laugh, it means good luck, but if it mutters sadly, it can translate in danger, sickness and death. Wands of this core make powerful spells, but are often unpredictable and difficult to tame. Their loyalty is easily gained and easily lost, though this may vary depending on the wood. 

Boggart 

Form: A big twisted grackle like humanoid with bright golden eyes.

Riddikulus: The grackle suddenly doing the chicken dance.

Amorentia

What they smell: Hot chocolate, books and oil painting (turpentine lmao).

What they smeel like to others: Mint, paint and parchment.

Patronus

Form: Jaguar (for Jacob), Eagle (after Talbott).

Memory: Family reunions on her Mother’s side of the family. All her cousins running around while the adults played cards.

What they see in the Mirror of Erised: Jacob and her, side by side, with the marks of their curse erased from their chests. As the years pass, more people are added into the picture behind them, like Chiara, Rowan, Talbott and Jae. After Rowan dies, their image takes Jacob’s place by Lith’s side.

~FAMILY~

Father: Daniel Thorne.Pureblood wizard.

Curly white hair (not due to the curse tho), white skin and golden eyes. Her dad is her greatest supporter, anything she wants to do he is right behind her cheering for her. He is a little bit eccentric but he loves to indulge his children's interests and spoil them. However, he is not available in the emotional department, he doesn’t know how to deal with those problems.

Mother:  Perla Rosas Villareal.

Muggle. Curly brown hair, brown skin and brown eyes. Her mom is strict but loving. Lith always seeks her for emotional support, she listens patiently and offers help only when asked. She is the one who makes her question things and they often get into arguments because of that.

Brother: Jacob Thorne Rosas

Half-blood wizard. The reason for all this mess. Curly silver hair, brown skin and golden eyes. An introverted and sweet guy, but very naive and trusting. The relationship between the Thorne siblings had always been good. Sure, they fought and argued, but they got along pretty well. After the Vaults, Lith became wary of her own brother, but when it all ended they began to reconstruct their relationship, though it will always be damaged.

Pets:

Onyx (Grackle): He is not exactly her pet, he is the other half of her soul aka her Companion.

Nox: A black cat that stayed back at home with her parents.

~FRIENDS~

Best friends:

Rowan Khanna

Chiara Lobosca

Jae Kim

Good friends:

Badeea Ali (they are art rivals but in a friendly way)

Charlie Weasley

Bill Weasley

Tulip Karasu

Friends:

Penny Haywood

Barnaby

Murphy

Andre

It’s Complicated:

Love Interests:

Talbott Winger (he is the only one I have a description for atm, the others are in another post if I remember correctly lol)

They met when Lith was trying to break her curse via the animagus potion, a thing that obviously didn’t work.

After the failure of the potion (of which Talbott is not aware), they began to notice they shared similar hiding spots, such as the Owlery, and started to acknowledge each other’s existence by simply saying hello.

Then Lith started to get closer again, asking him about the potion and being an animagus. He got suspicious and ended up discovering Chiara and Lith were trying to turn Jae into an animagus to accompany them during Chiara’s werewolf transformation.

He agreed to help them and became a member of the Werewolf Support Squad, a little bit against his will but he warmed up to them eventually.

They started to get close during those night escapades. They hung out more together (with the Squad) even after the full moons.  

Recovering Talbott’s necklace was the first time they got close one on one. It was also the moment they began to develop feelings for each other, even if they couldn’t name them yet.

They like being alone together, and started acting as a couple before they actually became one.

The moment Talbott realizes he has fallen for Lith is a morning after the full moon, when they are all in the Room of Requirement trying to get some sleep and the only thing he can look at is her.

For Lith it takes more time to realize her massive crush. It happened when Talbott fell asleep in the library while studying together. Tulip comes in and says something like “could you tell your boyfriend to wake up, Lith Thorne? We are having a House meeting soon.” Lith’s like “he is not my boyfriend tho??” and Tulip just answers “Really? Thought you were dating for months.” And leaves. That’s the moment when Lith looks at sleeping Talbott and omg he is cute and we certainly do look like a couple oh fuck.

Yet neither of them thinks the other is interested, so they continue like normal.

Until they stay behind in the Room of Requirement one time and they accidentally confess and bam guess they are a real couple now.

They graduate. Talbott gets his own place and works as an auror, Lith travels the world as a curse breaker. They meet sometimes and go on dates.

The year of Voldemort’s uprising, they have a fight and they both go their separate ways, though they never once mention breaking up.

They reunite in the Battle of Hogwarts, Talbott almost dies and they apologize to each other.

Lith moves in with Talbott after that and they marry and adopt two kittens.

~STORY~

Childhood: 

Lith was born in a middle low class family in the Valley of Mexico, with a malediction in her blood. Her early childhood consisted of playing with the children in the same street and Jacob. Since insecurity was still not that high in the city, her mom would let them go out of the house on their own. They attended a public elementary school until Jacob received his letter. After that, Lith couldn’t bother with school anymore but was forced to attend. As she grew up, children started to distance themselves from her, all the neighbourhood thought it was suspicious that her brother had gone to a boarding school when they barely had the money to pay for all their expenses. It got worse when Jacob disappeared.

HOGWARTS:

1st Year: Befriends Rowan, Ben, Chiara and Penny. Makes enemies with Merula. Finds Ice Vault. The Werewolf Support Unit is formed by Chiara, Rowan and Lith.

2nd Year: Ben Cooper disappears. Befriends Bill Weasley. They enter another common room. They open the Ice Vault.

3rd Year: Befriends Tulip, Barnaby and Talbott. Tries the Animagus potion. Attempt to turn Jae into an animagus. The Werewolf Support Unit becomes the Werewolf Support Squad with new members Jae and Talbott. They open Fear Vault.

4th Year: Befriends Charlie Weasley. Patricia Rakepick arrives at Hogwarts. Sleepwalking curse. Open Forest Vault. Goes to the Celestial Ball with Rowan and on a “date” with Talbott.

5th Year: Befriends Jae Kim, Badeea Ali, Liz Tuttle and Diego Caplan. Detention in the kitchens. Beatrice Haywood is trapped in the portrait. Rakepick becomes the new DADA teacher. Lith realizes she has feelings for Talbott. They open the Portrait Vault.

6th Year: Ben goes dark. Lith and Talbott start to date. Rowan dies. Meets Ty Blackwood and finds out they are related. Circle of Khanna.

7th Year: Who tf knows?? :))

ADULTHOOD:

After graduation: Lith goes to become a cursebreaker, taking jobs others would not. She quickly gains a reputation among shady witches and wizards. She lives like this for a year, not having a stable place to stay and traveling from country to country carrying only her backpack. She grows tired of it and decides to drop it all. She goes back to Mexico and moves in with a few muggle roomies. She studies plastic arts at a university and graduates early. She goes back to England to return to her curse breaker activities when Voldemort comes back.

Order of the Phoenix / 2nd Wizarding War: Lith never joins the Order of the Phoenix. She becomes an independent Rescuer, working by herself or for third parties (the Order included) to rescue Undesirables and get them out of the country. She even crafter fake papers to get them out. She does get in contact with members of the Order sometimes, like Carewyn Cromwell, who is one of her main contacts within the Ministry. She fights in the Battle of Hogwarts and saves Talbott’s life after reuniting with him.

Post-War: She decides she has had enough adventures for a while and moves in with Talbott, who quits as an auror and becomes a poet. They get married in a small ceremony which basically was just signing the papers and getting dinner with friends afterwards. After Jacob dies and her nephew Icarus is left orphaned, she takes him in with Talbott and they all move in with Ty at his much bigger home. Lith returns to her curse breaking job to support the whole family, since she doesn’t want Ty to pay for all of their expenses. Charlie moves in too after dating Ty for a while, which was a surprise for all. And they all live together whoo.

Old Age & Death: After retiring definitely, Lith dedicates the rest of her life to art. She even sells some of her works. She paints until her hair starts to turn black and she grows feathers, she paints until her arms don’t obey her anymore. She dies on her bed, with her precious Companion resting on her chest, as they both merge together, accompanied by Talbott, Icarus and her loved ones.

MISC

When they were children, Jacob lost one of his fangs during a sudden transformation and a collision with the door. Lith keeps it as a necklace charm and gifted Jacob one of her own feathers. Because of this, she believes the first black quill is the one he carried as a necklace charm too.

Before they start dating, Lith gives Talbott one of her feathers, which he wears alongside her mother’s. Lith also wears one of his as a necklace, but when she grows older she turns it into an earring. This is one of the reasons why people believe they were already together.

Lith has a habit of drawing on her skin, which is why she sometimes has her legs covered in little doodles. She later starts drawing on her friends.

She hoards art supplies.

She is a gambling addict, so she will get intense during exploding snap games. She knows a lot of card games from her Mother’s side of the family, challenge her at your own risk.

She never learned how to drive.

She learned a bit of mexican magic from her cousins, who attended Aztlán (the mexican wizarding school) created by @tsikuri.

She definitely sings in the shower, but not during her Hogwarts years.

Her taste in music is broad, listening to almost anything except banda.

She has a sweet tooth and cannot stand spicy food, causing the teasing from her whole family, who all, as proud Mexicans, eat chili with everything.

After she graduates, her schedule shifts entirely. She wakes up at 2 pm and goes to sleep at 3 am.

Her love languages are physical touch, but she is too shy and hyper aware to actually approach people and touch them, and gifts.  

If you give her food, you will now be on her “Good human, Angel from Heaven :-:” list. 

Her wand core comes from a bird that can predict death and misfortune, this curiously can be linked to her manifestation of the curse.

Most people think her new wand is ugly, and she did too. But she had to carve it herself to obtain it from an old Mexican wandmaker. The form is also inspired in the flower from the wand wood tree.Lucky: For some reason, Lith has super good luck for the most trivial things, like managing to get a cauldron just before Potions class starts because she forgot hers. She assumes it must be the universe’s compensation for cursing her.

Why Ron Ended Up Giving Harry a Thrifted Sneakoscope

——

I wanted to contribute to my HP fandom for the very first time so I tried making this Romione fanfic to celebrate Hermione’s 41st Birthday. This is my own version of Hermione’s Birthday in my second favorite book in the HP series, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.  Please bare with me since this is also my first time to write a fanfiction and sadly my invite in my preferred Fan fiction site is still on its way.

——

The Grangers arrived to meet the Weasleys in Leaky Cauldron where they could leave all Hermione’s things since they gave her permission to stay for the night. After they had tea and some food, they bade their goodbyes to Hermione. Without any delays, Ron and Hermione immediately agreed to find Harry. They went to every store in Diagon Alley to see if Harry was there but there were no signs of him.

“Bloody hell, where is Harry? He said that he’ll be just in Diagon Alley.” Ron started to swear, and they were both tired as they went back and forth to the shops.

“Why don’t we eat Ice Cream first in Florean de Fortescue?” Hermione suggested. “We’re both sweating already.” She added.

It was not peak hours when they got there, there were tables available. “You can order Hermione, I’ll wait on that table.” Ron pointed on a table in front of the ice cream parlor.

“There is not much people, we’ll surely have a table. We can order together.” Hermione replied.

“I kind of spent all my savings in Egypt.” Ron told her. “ Don’t worry. It’s okay. I’m still full.” Ron added quickly and he gestured for Hermione to get inside and sat in one of the tables outside. He looked around for the signs of Harry until Hermione arrived. She had two ice cream cups in her hands. “Still no signs of Harry?” She asked and he shook his head.

“I reckoned we need sugars to find him.” She placed an ice cream cup in front of Ron. “Blimey, Hermione, you don’t have to.” Ron said. “Start digging in or it will melt.” She told him with her usual authoritative tone and they started eating while talking about what happened to them in the summer. In a short while, Harry found them.

In no time, it was already the 19th of September in 1993. Ron still keeps on insisting to Hermione that she is not telling them something as they were making their way to breakfast. This started when Ron was noticing that Hermione can attend all of her classes.

“How many times do I need to tell you Ron, that I fixed it with Professor McGonagall?” Ron has gotten the same answer multiple times since he raised that concern, and he never wanted to stop until he hears the answer that he wanted.

“Still, I cannot understand how you can attend all your classes. Blimey Hermione, taking all classes would make you mental.” Ron retorted, but Hermione shrugged it off as she continued to stride to the great hall ahead of Ron and Harry.

“See, Harry? She always shrugs it off whenever I speak to her about it.” Ron spoke to Harry, but Harry changed the topic into the coming of the Quidditch season which made Ron forget what he was talking about.

They sat down in front of Hermione in the Gryffindor table. They started to eat their breakfast beneath the enchanted ceiling of a clear sky when owls started fly in the great hall dropping parcels and letters to their respective owners. Hermione got letters and packages in their table compared to them, who did not get anything.

Hermione was looking delighted as she rummaged through her packages. “Oh Mom and Dad, you don’t have to.” She exclaimed as she saw a bunch of cat treats from muggle groceries, and a set of mittens and scarves. She also opened a package from Flourish and Blotts and saw different coloured quill inks when Harry spoke, “I was waiting for that to arrive before I could greet you Happy Birthday.”

“Thank you Harry!” Hermione smiled at Harry. “Well thanks for the broom supplies too!” Harry said casually as he continued eating. Ginny also passed by to greet Hermione and gave her a greeting card.

“Happy Birthday Hermione.” Ron remarked, and Hermione smiled at Ron for a while until her face changed from the brink of excitement to anxiousness. “My Arithmancy assignment is still undone and we also have an oral recitation tomorrow, I have so many things to do today.” She ate faster than they could imagine, Harry and Ron followed her pace.

Hermione worked in the library the whole day. Ron and Harry went with her in the afternoon after lunch but they roamed around the halls after they finished the requirements they need to pass for the next day.

“I don’t in Merlin’s Beard understand how Hermione can enjoy her birthday by just spending her day in the Library. How come she never gets tired of books being her everyday view?” Ron muttered out of the blue as they went through the doors of the library to pick up Hermione for dinner.

“Well, we also never get tired of Quidditch.” Harry shrugged.

“You got a point.” Ron replied and they saw Hermione still engrossed in her books. Hermione did not notice them until Ron spoke.

“It’s your birthday, Hermione, why don’t you give yourself a break?”

“A break is not worth my time instead of investing it into my studies.” Hermione said as she looked up to the two of them.

“Did you come here so you could get your essays checked for Divination?” Hermione added quickly.

“We came here to pick you up so we could head to the great hall together.” Ron instantly told Hermione, and when nobody spoke, he jerked at Harry for moral support, but he saw Hermione shoved all her books in her bag.

“Mind to help me?” Before Harry could get the bag of books, Ron already grabbed it from Hermione and placed the remaining books in her sack. After dining in the great hall, they spent some time in the common room. Ron bickered with Hermione again about Crookshanks and then Ron went again on Hermione’s time table.

“You’re not telling us something Hermione and you’re really becoming unfair.” Ron said with incredulity.

“For once Ron, can it be just your birthday gift to stop asking me that question?” Hermione uttered in annoyance and looked back into her work.

“Fine.” Ron answered and made his way up to the Boys’ Dormitory. Harry followed after a while. As usual he did not talk to Ron about Hermione but about their lessons about Defense Against The Dark Arts. “If it was not because of that git Malfoy, Hagrid’s class would never be so boring.” Ron talked. It came into a time that Harry and Ron went into their beds. It was getting late at night and Ron was fighting his urge to sleep, he sighed as he look at Scabbers peacefully sleeping beside him.

When the time was right, he peeked through his curtains to look if Harry is still awake, and quietly he stepped out of his bed and opened his trunk with hardly any sound. He dug his hand under it until he got a heavy piece wrapped into some Egyptian cloth. It was already almost midnight and he was sure that Hermione is still down in the common room doing some work. He was not wrong, Hermione was always left alone late at night.

Hermione noticed Ron immediately as he set foot in the common room. “Why are you up so late at night?” Ron was a bit relieved that Hermione was talking to him even after doing their constant dagger stares when they bicker.

“Uhmm, I might need to go to the loo.” Ron was finding words, and she was right he might need to go to the loo. “With that bulky object?” Ron stopped in his tracks and turned back to Hermione and went near the couch where she is sitting and dropped the package in the table in front of her. ‘It’s nothing, it seemed brilliant when I first saw it, it looks quite antique. I suppose you could have it.’, said Ron.

Hermione glanced at Ron and then to the package like she could not believe her eyes and spoke, “You did not have to.”

“Perhaps, I’m like your Mom and Dad now as you muttered earlier in the morning ‘Oh Mom and Dad, you did not have to’” Ron mocked Hermione and she chuckled as she opened the package.

“It’s an Egyptian book of magic, about their culture and their spells. Ron, this is rare and ancient.” Hermione turned the bulky book around in scrutiny.

“You said in your letters that you wished to see Egypt and I reckoned that books can give you some sort of experience, maybe it is also why you never get tired to read.” Ron reasoned out lightly but Hermione was not listening, she started skimming through the pages.

“I really wanted to see Egypt, if I would have a chance, would you come to see it again with me?” Hermione uttered out of the blue and her eyes were gleaming which leaves Ron with no choice to answer.

“Sure. Why not?” Ron remarked with uncertainty.

There was a sound in the portrait hole, and both Ron and Hermione jumped in their seats. Fred, George, and Lee Jordan was laughing as they entered. It was like they have done a mischief. “Filch and Peeves are on it again.” They laughed harder and they saw Ron and Hermione.

“I thought you left that book that costed all of your savings at home.” Fred teased Ron.

“Well, he said that it was brilliant, maybe as brilliant as the Chudley Cannons.” George added.

Ron stood up, and declared, “Well the book was bloody brilliant and nothing compared to Lockhart’s. I think I’m off to bed with you.” Ron even marched ahead of them, and he said without looking at Hermione. “Good night Hermione.”

Letters to my Parents - Saturday 1 Augustus 1992 - by Alinda

Saturday 1 Augustus 1992

Dear mom and dad,

I miss Hogwarts. It’s like I have a constant stomach-ache, that’s how much I miss it. I miss the castle, the secret passageways and ghosts, the classes, the mail arriving by owl. Hedwig is locked up in her cage and she keeps waking uncle Vernon in the early morning because she’s bored and makes loud hooting noises. We have an argument about it almost every morning. And yesterday on my birthday I accidentally said ‘you’ve forgotten the magic word’ when Dudley told me to pass the frying pan and the room exploded. Dudley fell off his chair, aunt Petunia screamed and uncle Vernon jumped to his feet and roared at me, telling me the M word was forbidden and that I shouldn’t threaten Dudley. But all I meant was please. I just wanted Dudley to say please.

I also miss the banquets in the Great Hall, sleeping in the dungeon, visiting Hagrid in his cabin next to the forbidden forest, Quidditch, and most of all I miss my friends. I haven’t had any letters, or birthday cards or presents. I feel really lonely. It seems that Draco and Hermione don’t miss me at all. Neither of them has written to me all summer, even though Draco had promised me to write as often as possible. And he said he would try to convince his parents that I could have my birthday party at his house. Well, that didn’t happen since that was yesterday. I just can’t believe that they have forgotten my birthday.

And on top of all that, the Dursleys had completely forgotten my birthday too. For one moment at breakfast, I had hoped they remembered when uncle Vernon cleared his throat and said that it was a very important day. But he was just talking about his dinner party with a rich builder and his wife. They had a schedule for everything, and my only role was to stay in my bedroom, without making a noise and pretending I’m not here. O, how I wish I wasn’t here, but at Draco’s or even at Hermione’s house. Then maybe I wouldn’t have just had the worst birthday ever.

It all started in the afternoon when I saw two enormous green eyes between the leaves of the hedge. I jumped to my feet, but the eyes blinked and vanished because Dudley walked towards me. He taunted me; he made fun of the fact that I hadn’t gotten any birthday cards and questioned if I had any friends at my school. I tried to play it cool, to not let Dudley know how much it hurt me that none of my friends had remembered my birthday. Especially Draco, I thought there was something between us, but maybe I was wrong. Maybe he doesn’t like me as more than just friend. I don’t know, I only know it hurts.

Dudley also asked me why I was staring at the hedge, and I made up a lie, saying I was thinking of the best spell to set it on fire. Dudley stumbled backwards at once and started stuttering that his dad will send me away and that I have nowhere else to go because I don’t have any friends. And that just made me angry, so I started saying nonsense words pretending to do magic. Dudley ran back inside to his mom and she made me do work around the house all day. I wasn’t to have anything to eat until it was finished.

So I ended up cleaning the windows, mowing the lawn, trimming the flowerbeds, pruning and watering the roses and repainting the garden bench on my birthday. And when I was finished Aunt Petunia gave me two slices of bread and a lump of cheese for dinner, while the roast pork was sizzling in the oven for their dinner party.

When I had finished I was sent upstairs, where I had to pretend that I wasn’t here. Only there was one little problem. When I walked into my room something was sitting on my bed. It was a little creature, with large, bat-like ears and bulging green eyes the size of tennis balls. It were the same eyes I had seen in the hedge earlier that day. As soon as the creature saw me he slipped off the bed and bowed so low that the end of its nose touched the carpet. He said it was an honour to meet me. He told me his name was Dobby and that he was a house-elf. And everything went downhill from there.

Dobby had come to tell me something, but it was difficult, according to him. So I asked him to sit down, and that just made Dobby wail. I tried to make him quiet down and managed to get him on the bed, telling him that he couldn’t have met many decent wizards if they had never asked him to sit down before. Only that made him jump up again and he started to bang his head on the window, shouting bad Dobby. That made Hedwig wake up and she also started making loud noises.

It seems that Dobby is bound to serve one family and he had to punish himself because he almost spoke ill of them. He will also punish himself when he gets back home because his family doesn’t know that he came to see me. He can’t escape them, he needs to be set free. So I asked him if I could help him and that just made him wail again. He said he had heard of my greatness, but not of my goodness. I told him I wasn’t great, that I’m not even top of my class, that Draco and Hermione are fighting over that position. It was painful thinking of them, so I stopped that line of the conversation.

Dobby went on to say he knew I triumphed over the Dark Lord twice, the last time only a few weeks ago. And when I confirmed, he said I was valiant and bold, but that Dobby has come to protect me, to warm me that I must not go back to Hogwarts. Well, that isn’t an option. So I told Dobby that I have to go back. I don’t belong here in the muggle world, I belong in the wizarding world, at Hogwarts. The only thing that kept me going for the last weeks is the knowledge that I’ll be going back there on the first of September.

Of course, Dobby didn’t agree with this. He was certain I would be in mortal danger if I would go back. Because there is a plot to make the most terrible things happen at Hogwarts this year. Dobby said he had known it for months and that I was too important to put myself in peril. I still don’t know what terrible things or who are plotting them, because Dobby wouldn’t tell me. He just started to bang his head against the wall. I did learn it wasn’t Voldemort who was planning it. But when Dobby tried to tell me more he just started banging my desk lamp against his head and making a lot of noise.

It was then that uncle Vernon came upstairs and I hit Dobby in the closet. Uncle Vernon was very upset and told me to keep quiet, or else I would wish I was never born. And he is right, I kind of wish that now. After uncle Vernon had left I told Dobby I had to go back because it is horrible here and that I think I’ve got friends at Hogwarts. And then I found out that Dobby had been stopping their letters from reaching me. He had them with him and I could see letters with Hermione’s handwriting, with Hagrid’s and Ron’s untidy scrawl. I didn’t see any letters from Draco.

I asked Dobby if there were any letters from Draco, but he wouldn’t tell me. He said I could have my letters if I promised not to go back to Hogwarts. But I told him no and that he should give me my letters. And then everything went wrong.

Before I could reach Dobby he had darted out of my room and down the stairs. Dobby was sitting on top of a cupboard and Aunt Petunia’s pudding was floating up near the ceiling. I begged Dobby to put it back, but he wouldn’t unless I would promise not to go back to school. I told him I couldn’t and then he dropped the pudding on the floor and vanished.

I had to clean the kitchen and uncle Vernon promised to flay me when the Masons had left and I had hoped it wouldn’t get any worse than this, but it did. Only an owl came to deliver a letter from the improper use of magic office of the ministry of magic. It turned out that Mrs Mason is mortally afraid of birds and the Masons left, making uncle Vernon lose the deal he wanted to make with Mr Mason. Uncle Vernon then locked me in my room with a mad gleam dancing in his eyes. He laughed about that I was never going back to Hogwarts, and that I would get expelled if I would try to magic myself out of my room.

And Uncle Vernon has kept true to his word. I’m locked in my room. A man has fit bars on my window and uncle Vernon made a cat-flap in the bedroom door, where they pass through small amounts of food. I only get let out to use the bathroom in the morning and evening. Otherwise, I’m to stay here, in my room, by myself, all alone, with no way of escape.

I don’t know what to do now. I have no way to contact anyone who could help me. And I still don’t have my letters. No kind words of Hermione telling me summer will be over before I know it. No funny stories from Ron about his crazy family. No words from Draco to ease my mind. And even if I had the letters, I’m sure there weren’t any letters from Draco between them. I would have recognized his handwriting. And that is one of the things that keep me up at night. Why didn’t he write to me? I thought that the kiss he gave on my cheek when we arrived at King Cross mend something. And I had hoped that maybe we could become boyfriends. Why would he kiss me and then change his mind?

The other thing keeping me awake is Voldemort. I still have nightmares about him, about his livid face, his wide, mad eyes. I wake up drenched in cold sweat, wondering where Voldemort is now and if he found another way to come back. And would he come after me again if he has?

I hate my life right now. What is it worth being alive when I can’t go back to Hogwarts? When I can never find out why Draco didn’t write to me. When I will never see my friends again. Maybe it would have been better if I had died when Voldemort killed both of you, or when I met him again only two months ago. Then I wouldn’t be alone and locked up now, but with both of you. That sounds so much better than this.

I love you and miss you so much right now.

I wish I was with you both.

Your Harry James Potter.

Spoiler Review for The Book Of Spells! pt 3!

Glad to see people are really enjoying these overviews of the past queens!

Sorry this one took longer, i have other things to take care of and it gets in the way sometimes.

but now that we’re back let’s get started-

So we’re actually at the midpoint of the book, and before we get to rhina, gloss has a section in here about mewberty and the mewberty form.

the midpoint of the book also points to where the queen sections are with comments from gloss about all of them. Though let’s do a overview of this section on the mewberty form before we get to rhina

We already get the gist with it in the show, that it’s a powerful form that gives you helpful tools for you as a magic user, but here’s some bonus info that’s new to us.

The book is meant, according to daron, to allude to some future events, so we should be on the lookout for anything important.

Mewberty and dipping down

You tend to pop into this form when feeling strong emotion

Mewberty wings only show when needed

keeping your wings clean is important, don’t machine wash them.

Those sparkly eyes are called omatidia eyes, they let you see more then one dimension at a time. Soupina got stuck in this state and she never came back, she went mad. So don’t let yourself get lost with this power.

these eyes also let you read every language.

your emotions can increase and decrease your density, helping you fly. Dirhhennia might never have gone through mewberty, but she had many accounts of waking up on the ceiling and crashing on her bed.

the arms also only pop out when needed, sometimes they can be hard to make go away though.

your voice may change in this form, explaining star’s weird voice when killing toffee. It’s a multidimensional voice, just like with the eyes. 

Each queens always has some unique signifiers in their mewberty form. Cres grew a big eyebrow each time she dipped down for example. Then it turned into a caterpiller and ran into the forest.

Negative emotions like envy and anger make for bad dipping down, making your form messed up and your magic unpredictable. while love and protection of another help you do fantastic and make your magic at it’s most powerful.

Tbh, alot of queens don’t manage to dip down, and it’s not exactly a bad thing considering the radiation it lets off. So it’s not frowned upon if you can’t do it.

Gloss then has a checklist of all kinds of silly things for him to do.

Here are my favs on here though

“Say nothing but globgor for a whole year” ( I can’t BELIEVE he wrote that down as one)

“Do nothing for five days”

“Change my voice” (Lol)

“Be a bridesmaid”

“Throw away all pants”

“die and be reborn” (Which he gave 4 checkmarks to, so uh..how  much has gloss died?)

Also he has ones he crossed out, which means he never intends to do them.

He crossed out things like “Learn how to apologize” and apologies to a number of characters.

it’s a funny page that you should see for yourself.

Then he has a page on all his bug pets and their names. He has six bug pets, three silkworms, a centipede, a beetle and an earwig.

He seems to love them like kids more then his OWN kids (The mhc), he even has pet names for them.

Gloss also has a bedroom in here, it’s weird and clearly a bit meta since there’s concept art in it on a drawing board.

Rhina

Rhina’s queen poem is basically alluding to this very same book getting destroyed when it gets to star.

Her crystal is unique, a nubrikian spinning cube, there’s only 7 in existence in all the universes. she has to rearrange the cubes before every spell. Also they’re hypnotic and staring at them is a bad idea.

she writes notes to herself.

She rhymes alot in her chapter..

The hear on her wand is rare and perfect for riddle craft.

her book is full of riddles to solve for fun.

The edge of her wand can cut glass.

Some text are written upsidedown or in weird positions.

She has a pet turtle she likes having by her side, she was only allowed to keep it in her chambers after she was queen. Her best friend got him from the cats with human faces dimension, because he belonged to a cat prince and her friend won him. He was a present to rhina when her friend first came to the caslte.

She actually has 5 millhorses inside her wand, one being her mother’s.

She has steps on doing riddles. You have to collect them, find a subject, size doesn’t matter, know the answer first, draft ,metaphors, alliteration, let the answer speak about itself, share with friends. 

Didn’t like Reynaldo the bald plate (That rando mch member) cause her made meetings riddle-free. She asked her mom to get rid of him, but that wasn’t possible, they kinda do what they want. Her mom still had her hand in alot of decisions through her daughter, rhina likes the help.

She was kinda hoping her mom would be queen a longer time and would not mind it it were forever, but she would rather spend a ton of time organizing her many spellbooks.

Finds gloss messy and bossy but at least he likes her riddles.

Friends with someone named lady gyoza, she came to stay with the family when rhina was age five and they’ve been friends since. They like to go on walks and braid daises in their hair. Gyoza looks like an owl because she’s 1/4th owl, she even sleeps late like one.

her turtle likes top-hats. also he has a mustache.

Skywynne knew lady gyoza’a grandpa, so that’s why she joined their family, for family friendship.

She made national riddle day on her birthday, which made every loyal subject give her a riddle. It wasn’t a success in the end.

was really bored about her meeting with the mch on the monster conflict.

uses riddle magic to make her spells, making the spells work is the hard part though. The trick of course is the spinning of the wand’s cubes and she only set gloss’s beard on fire five times anyway.

uses some cleaner to help make her wand spin right, it makes it look shiny too. It also smells like flowers from septarias, which gloss may be allergic to.

Has exercises for using objects with your arms, recommends asking a witch doctor or doctor before doing them. They’re weird ones with a book and a crystal ball. (Make sure if anyone lives in the book you tell them first before you do the exercise.) 

Changed from doing “Entries” to just posting her thoughts.

She and Gyoza went to a demon ball wearing black cat masks, and no one knew who they were. She liked not being seen, would want to wear masks more often, watch the sunrise from castle namparts.

Has an ideal perfect morning, and wrote it down.

Rhina kinda seems asexual and aromatic, she dislikes her mom encouraging her to find a king and her friend talking about love, rhina just finds it all boring.

has a page on special cube forms for her spells.

bit her nails and sometimes had to use her toes to move her cube.

has been to earth since one cube form is based on a chihuahua., it makes her wand bark after each spin.

Used a spell on Reynaldo to make him like riddles, but he ended up only speaking in riddles from then on. She and gloss could not find a counterspell. So they made him retire.

Her friend eventually left and had a going away party.

in the beginning of her chapter she reminded herself about this red ribbon as a reminded for something about the cats with human faces dimension and it becomes a running gag in this book that she forgot why she has it.

has a spell to disarm monsters with your attitude or inner beauty. This spell made some flower monsters in the forest cry.

She forced herself to fall in love using a spell, despite how much she didn’t want to and dated a second cousin of the lucitors named John Roachly who was very talented and they ended up married. (And i hate to bring this up again but for those of you about to pull the incest card on tomstar, if you do the math tom and star would be 6th cousins based on this, which would not be considered related, nor would tom and star share any dna between them. They’re distantly related due to rhina’s marriage, but they’re so distant it would not make them related nor should affect their relationship. I feel i HAVE to say this because lord knows this fandom will use anything it can against a ship regardless if it’s actually true or not.).

Rhina wanted to basically break John’s heart after this was over with, apparently he was a cruel person too, and get them separated. But she ended up KILLING him. Making her a window while she was still pregnant with celena. Cresenta is also apparently dead by this point but rhina thinks she’d be happy to know the queen line is still continuing.

She was really upset about killing john despite him being a jerk, her friend and turtle comforted her.

Rhina and Gyoza loved the great book of fashion, they liked to make fashion of their own from it.

She met with king ponyhead and his oldest daughter to discuss what happened with john. The demons were furious about the incident and they wanted to speak with them and try to make clean between them. Her bestie was not convinced this was gonna work.

her turtle passed away.

as she got older her wrists made it harder to do magic, but she didn’t need to do much anyway. She just wanted some to help make peace with the demons. 

Gyoza doesn’t trust the demons.

She wanted to bring celena with her to the meeting but she just hid in the drapes, and she got the book as her mom left to see what she could do to make it up to the demons.

So that’s rhina, not my fav in the book, as sometimes i can’t read her writing and turning the book in so many different angles was a little annoying. But her focus on riddles is unique and i like seeing different types of magic explored. For spells based on riddles they became far too literal and had bad effects in the process. When it came to her inner beauty spell, it made the monsters feel as bad as her, making them cry.

Also no, where she came from is never explained.

it’s kinda a shame that i feel the most people will take away from this chapter is the fact tom and star are distantly related (Despite the distance making them NOT related). But it’s interesting to see more on demons considering there so far isn’t too much on the lucitors in here. We haven’t even seen a single pic of a lucitor ancestor yet.

I have been made aware though, the lucitor and butterfly tensions because of this never fully resolved itself...until star and tom’s time.

Poor rhina though, pressured into kids and being married from her mom and it only led to problems with their allies.

Celena

Oh yay, another queen whose handwriting is hard to read

we don’t really get to learn much on celena’s wand...since she covers it with her fan, people who try to look with be cursed with painful shyness.

New millhorse, i think this millhorse if my fav so far, it’s so eerie and cool looking. He’s even shy like her, and he’s actually a ghost. He was also one of the five in her mom’s wand.

she also rhymes alot, i think she gets it from her mom. She writes poems more then riddles though for her spells.

she mostly looks at the ground, rather then people. She even says sorry to toadstools and fences if she bumps into them (they have feelings too). She also never speaks in public. Rhina though, doesn't like her saying sorry to non-living things...unless it’s in a riddle.

Gloss thinks she’s adorable.

Her spells are rather odd, there’s one dealing with love, but it’s it’s meant to make you fall in love or fall out of love is hard to tell.

has potions on attracting spirits and to make you a spirit, she was a potions master after all.

her chapter has all the Aureole signs, which are basically mewman zodiac signs. I can’t really explain all of them but if you need a pic just ask. Star even put the earth months and days here since mewni had their own months for this before.

She has a spell on mending a broken friendship. Something i feel is much more likely to be in s4 then some of the other things in this book.

Shyness is a gift to her, she only has to talk to who she wants to talk to, also she likes gloss, she thinks he’s small and silly.

There’s a protection charm in here.

Celena and her methods of magic rely more on herbs and such, it’s interesting. She just never seems to actually use her wand for any of her spells.

She has a cute little song about a pumpkin she grew.

She has a whole page on tarot cards, some familiar faces are on some of these cards.  As in, the other queens, Skywynne is represented as the queen, jushtin is represented as the king, Cresenta is true love,  and solaria is battle strength and that’s only some of them. These cards are made to cut out as well.

And that’s it, i’m honestly not kidding.

Celena has very little to say on her chapter and there’s nothing in terms of her family, her rules, the conflicts, or anything.

we aren’t even made aware who she married.

star in the beginning of this chapter is disappointed in the lack of secrets. But i wonder if celena had really any secrets at all, maybe her biggest secret...is everyone just thought she had one?

that or, if she had any secrets, she kept them out of this book.

She’s an adorable queen though, strange case.

Estrella

Estrella actually hated writing, she actually didn’t write anything in her chapter. Instead GLOSSARYCK actually is the ones talking and explaining about her in most of her section as we browse through her art. She says a few things but even still her chapter is very short.

Her wand was a pen, if it had magic powers, she never used them, she just used it to draw. She ended up devoting her life to art.

Same millhorse as her mom, the ghost one.

extrella was quiet, she didn’t talk much, and as queen she did very little. But this is what made mewmans love her, because there was no real change and they hated change She just spent all her time sketching all alone and finding cool plants that eventually comet made into food.

apparently the avarius’s at the time sank their fortunes in the scratch and sniff trade. Which does explain ludo’s folks a bit...

Red Solanacese was celena’s favorite.

Game of flags with the johansens was a thing by this point.

named a smelly plant “Crying dirt pile”.

found some sand to eat on her potato salad , calls it “Frown sand” and it tastes really good, she brought some back to the caslte.

Estrella drew during her MCH meetings, it was the only way she stood awake during them. Omni thought it was rude.

Seth is still alive by this point, has a group of rebels, apparently omni thought best they wait it out rather then go to war again.

Estrella’s last page is a sketch of her mom, alot older, her husband Azul Saint, who was a bard, and her baby comet. She calls them, “All of her loves”.

So yes, that’s two queens in a row with small chapters and not a lot to talk about.

it’s kind’ve a shame to me some of these other queens got so cut, i just feel like we could’ve had more on them, or other things happening during their time. But we didn’t. 

They end up feeling like placeholders just there to fill book space and that might bother me a bit. 

Estrella wasn’t much of a talker, but i feel like more could’ve been done with her.

There’s not much i can say because well....there’s not much to say in the fist place, that honestly about covers it.

We’ll continue with he last 3 queens soon enough.

thanks for reading, and i’ll see you soon!

Hogwarts! Joshua

Anon requested: “can you write seventeen hogwarts au? Joshua is possible?”

Genre: fluff

Word Count: 2783

everyone knew about Joshua Hong 

the perfect perfect

he was a fifth year Hufflepuff 

same house and year as you 

so you saw him often as you both shared classes 

it came as no surprise when he was chosen as a prefect 

but he was surprisingly cool, letting minor things go if it didn’t endanger anyone or if it was for special occasions 

especially if they were his friends, he just couldn’t say no to them 

everyone’s favorite prefect because he was so nice and liked giving warnings rather than punishments 

caught out past curfew by a few minutes, 

he’d show you a secret passage to getting back to the dorms without running into teachers 

if you passed him on the train, he’d stop to compliment you after asking you how your summer went 

and no surprise he knew the lady pushing the trolley around on a first name basis 

and asking her how her family was and everything 

and complimenting her uniform

she always slipped him chocolate frog cards he didn’t have for his collection 

and he’d thank her and buy out half the trolley before sharing it with all the kids in the next few carriages 

Joshua was good at everything, smart and friendly too 

not a single person could find something wrong with the guy or criticize him in any way 

no matter what house someone was in, they new Joshua Hong

because the guy did everything 

perfect exam scores in charms, potions, DATDA, transfiguration, herbology 

you name it, Hong Jisoo did well in it 

and he was so nice to everyone and a gentleman wherever he went  

holding open doors to classrooms for people or picking up fallen quills or books that people dropped and returning it to them with a small smile 

one time a girl accidentally set the quill she was writing with on fire from a wayward charm 

Joshua had quickly extinguished it with aguamenti and gave her a new quill 

suffice to say, plenty of witches had crushes on him 

and no one could hate the guy for anything 

literally, if you tried hating him, Joshua somehow managed to make you like him 

disliked him for being too smart? 

he’d say he wasn’t really smart, he just tries hard to study his best and he has smart friends who show him how to do stuff 

and then talk about some random episode of spongebob bc it’s Joshua

which plenty of people wouldn’t understand except the other muggle borns 

he’d be a huge dork quoting random episodes and just being a meme 

everyone was always asking him for advice or to look over their homework for them 

and although he never lets anyone copy his 

goody two shoes you know

he somehow had the time to always give advice to everyone and save their grade 

he played as a chaser for Hufflepuff’s Quidditch team too 

it wasn’t enough to be intelligent, he was athletic and dedicated too

spending even stormy days out in the field practicing long after some of his teammates had called it quits 

looked damn fine in quidditch robes too yes 

in his third year, he had led the Hufflepuff team to victory 

scored 30 points in the last minutes before their seeker finally caught the snitch, bringing the score to 270-300 

he was every teacher’s favorite too 

they couldn’t help it 

he was always offering to help out teachers with anything they may need 

although he didn’t sit in the front of any of his classes 

and he was too quiet to raise his hand to answer any questions sometimes 

if a teacher ever made the mistake of assuming Joshua wasn’t listening to the question 

they got roasted as Joshua Hong not only got the question right, but probably corrected some error they made in their lecture earlier 

which he would only point out in the most respectful and polite way

“Professor, did you mean to say aconite or monkshood instead of mandragora?“ 

and if no one knew the answer to a question 

all Joshua needed was a glance from the teacher and he’d have the correct answer ready to go 

the boy sang in chorus too 

his voice was heavenly 

some magical entity had to have graced Joshua with every goddamn talent in the universe 

he supposedly played guitar amazingly well 

only his dorm mates knew though, he always packed his guitar in his trunk somehow 

and brought it out to play sometimes 

it always surprised everyone when they found out he was muggle born

like he was too good at everything wtf how have you only been doing magic for a few years 

but no one dared say anything about it 

bc he had so many friends from all the houses 

say something mean about Joshua or just something even remotely critical 

and like five different people will interject saying how he’s basically a human unicorn 

and how dare you call Shua anything but the perfect prefect 

and he could easily beat anyone in a duel if his friends dragged him into one 

and probably profusely apologize while bowing at ninety degrees and helping bandage and heal any injuries he may have caused 

it was theorized he might have a time-turner 

how else could he get all his papers done and still manage quidditch practice and chorus? 

and also reorganizing textbooks in the library with his wand while the librarian recommended him books he hadn’t read before since he had read many of them 

and helping the kitchen elves by explaining the concept of lactose intolerance and gluten free and other things that helped people with dietary restrictions and food allergies feel comfortable eating all food 

he also helped an elf who once tripped over the recently mopped floor

Madam Pomfrey was always glowing about Shua bc he always brought students who were sick flowers and books to read and always gave her chocolates 

he also was often seen consoling random paintings and ghosts in Hogwarts and he knew all of them by their first names 

and while some people wanted to hate Joshua 

he could say a few words and any negative feelings you had toward him were gone 

“You really deserved that win, you guys have been practicing so hard lately on the quidditch field, good job!" 

"How did you you come up with a way to start your potions paper so well? I should be asking you to edit mine." 

"you have to show me that spell you did the other day with the lights and confetti, I want to use it for a friend’s birthday.”

“My owl? Oh his name is Flufferson, I have a picture do you want to see? He’s probably somewhere flying around, enjoying the fresh air, the cutie.”

“I have a puppy at home, it’s a Maltese and I named it Sebongie, I think it’s a cute name." 

on weekends, you could probably see Joshua buying sugar quills for some third years who had forgotten their silver sickles or bronze knuts

or in the common room teaching kids how to use his iPhone to watch YouTube and anime 

always with his group of friends from all the houses 

his group of friends was big, 13 of them in all 

his best friends were Jeonghan from slytherin and Seungcheol from Gryffindor since they were all the same age 

one time, Jeonghan had tried to prank some Hufflepuff students by hexing their book bags into releasing a bunch of little rubber snakes 

but he was caught by Joshua 

and Joshua made him apologize 

you don’t mess with Joshua’s kids 

the next day Jeonghan’s clothes kept dropping rubber snakes everywhere

"SHUA YOU BETTER FIX MY CLOTHES I CANT WALK INTO POTIONS WITH THESE THINGS WORMING THROUGH MY UNDERWEAR”

Joshua would hide his laughter behind his hand and then compose himself 

“That should actually keep you awake in potions then." 

and everyone around them would be dying from laughter and patting Joshua on the back 

for a gentleman the guy knew how to be savage sometimes 

ofc as a fifth year in Hufflepuff you knew Joshua 

you even sat pretty close to him in charms 

and although you couldn’t hate the guy 

it gets low key annoying when your friends always act like his biggest fan

"Shua’s practicing down at the quidditch field, GET THE SIGNS GIRLS!" 

"We have a transfiguration exam y'all what are you doing?" 

"Supporting our Hong Jisoo, y/n. The quidditch match is next weekend and we want to beat the slimy smiles off of those Slytherins’ faces." 

one day in charms the professor had to assign a partner project 

naturally everyone paired up 

and you’re like chill I’ll just ask

you look around and all your friends are already paired up 

and of course you’re like great forever alone that’s me I need to get me an even number of friends… 

"Y/n do you need a partner?” Joshua asks you from the seat two students down from you 

and everyone goes quiet

because Joshua usually always partners up with one of his friends 

and you look to his normal friend group 

and see sure enough all of them have partners too 

“Sure, Joshua.” You say scrunching your nose

at least you’ll actually have a partner who tries and doesn’t make you do all the work by yourself (LIKE LAST TIME COUGH COUGH YOUR FRIEND) 

you both decide to meet at the library the next weekend to work on it 

“OMG y/n Joshua never asks anyone outside his friend group. What if he likes you?!?!? You guys would be such a power couple ACK." 

"Shut up.” you laugh and playfully hit your friend’s arm while packing your book bag 

“I’m not pretty enough for everyone’s golden gentleman Joshua, he was just being nice because you all ditched me." 

"I’m glad we did, make me the maid of honor at your wedding and thank me later." 

when you reach the library, Joshua is already there talking to Jeonghan 

"The girl in your charms class? Well whatever we can hang out next weekend. But Shua that assignment isn’t due in weeks… makes sense the both of you are smart aleks." 

you clear your throat 

"welp bye Joshua, oh and we’re all getting butter beer later at hogsmeade don’t forget." 

Joshua laughs and waves Jeonghan goodbye 

"it’s a nice day, should we sit out by the lake and say hi to the giant squid?" 

"sure I guess" 

you didn’t want to have a crush on Joshua 

bc then you’d be one of those girls, the ones always trailing behind him and trying to get his attention 

and walking by fluttering their eyelashes and saying "Hey Joshua." 

but as you were both crossing the grounds to the lake 

you kept giving him sideways glances 

the way his light brown hair became lightly tousled in the breeze - or his small smile 

or the gentle humming of a song you weren’t familiar with 

Focus you’re working on an assignment geez 

you both sat down at the edge of the lake and brainstormed ideas for your project 

and somewhere along the way the convo shifted to just talking about summer and your home 

"You’re muggle born too? Then have you ever watched Naruto?" 

Joshua was a dork you realized, a cute one 

"Sebongie? Yea I miss her like crazy, I was tempted to bring her in my trunk but I have Flufferson already." 

ah shit 

you were starting to like like Joshua 

he was too nice and cute especially when talking about his pets and how they brightened his day 

or the many hilarious adventures he had with his friends 

or how he missed his family 

he was a good listener too 

you talked about your hamster at home 

it loved eating carrots and you had originally wanted to name it mochi 

but you had settled for Carrot after it’s favorite food 

and you told Joshua about how you had always loved playing quidditch with your family but you never tried out for the Hufflepuff team 

his friends must have caught on to your feelings before Joshua did, Joshua was kind of clueless about all the crushes people had on him

Jeonghan ended up putting his arm on your shoulder while walking to the library to meet up with Joshua 

"You should just tell him you like him." 

"and get a pity rejection, lmao in what world would I do that Jeonghan.”

“Suit yourself.” He said giving you a sly smile 

right before shoving you into a broom closet 

and locking the damn door behind you 

“JEONGHAN YOU’RE DEAD YOU HEAR ME." 

"You should thank your friend later, she told me about your little crush on our Shua, luckily for you I approve." 

you tried unlocking the door with your wand but to no avail 

you even tried picking the lock with a hairpin 

"Hey y/n listen to this." 

"Jeonghan I’m telling the head of slytherin later get ready for your ass whooping." 

but you hear someone running down the hallway outside the door 

"Jeonghan what do you mean y/n got in an accident? Where is she?" 

you go dead silent, it’s Joshua 

"Yah, look you came running and everything if you like her just tell her geez." 

you hold your breath as you hear what Joshua says next 

"She probably doesn’t like me back ok? I’m not good at these things, she’s cute and interesting and I’m boring and I don’t know ok Jeonghan, just tell me where she is no time for jokes we have to work on the project.”

“alright, I’d like to just say that you brought this upon yourself and you can thank me later." 

"what are you talking about Jeonghan-" 

and the closet door clicks open and Jeonghan pushes Joshua, where he bumps into you sending the both of you sprawling on the floor and the door slams shut yet again

"THIS IS FOR THOSE SNAKES SHUA I ALWAYS GET THE LAST LAUGH. See you two later…" 

Joshua picks himself up and helps you up 

and even in the dim closet you can see him blushing like crazy 

you’re probably no better you feel like you have a fever that won’t. go. away. Goddamnit. 

"Jeonghan underestimates me.” He said giving a nervous chuckle and reaching for his wand 

he easily unlocks the door 

and Jeonghan is out there bending over dying of laughter 

and both you and Joshua are just blushing like crazy and awkwardly standing next to each other 

“Did you hear everything?” Joshua says so quietly it’s almost a whisper - “yes?” You say 

Joshua’s eyes widen and he gives Jeonghan (who’s still laughing even harder now at the sight of the two of you) a glare 

Joshua points his wand at Jeonghan LIKE boi I’ll be seeing you later - Jeonghan runs away cackling down the hallway 

“You can just pretend it didn’t happen.” Joshua says flustered looking everywhere but your face 

“I’ll understand if you don’t like me ba-" 

"It was driving me crazy did you really not know I like you too Joshua?” Wow did I just say that, stupid stupid stupid whyyyyy you think to yourself

he looks up at you in surprise 

“Wait really? Jeonghan isn’t paying you to say that right?" 

"lmao no I’m going to murder Jeonghan after this." 

"I’d help you but he’s my best friend so…" 

"Do you want to maybe just get a butter beer at Hogsmeade instead?" 

"I’d love to." 

and from then on you two were known as darling couple 

Hogwarts’ gentleman Joshua and you 

basically everyone’s relationship goals 

and your friend groups both took responsibility for getting you two together

Joshua would send you little notes that were folded into cranes and bewitched to float over to your desk 

and everyone would sigh and think how sickeningly adorable seeing you read his message 

and looking at all the little hearts he had doodled during class 

"Joshua Hong, let me repeat the question.” The professor would say 

“I never usually have to ask you twice what’s wrong?" 

"Joshua got a girlfriend, professor." 

and the whole class would burst out laughing with you and Joshua blushing like crazy and his friends wolf whistling 

you’d walk with each other to your next class with your hand in his 

"Get a room Shua, no one needs to see this.” Jeonghan smirked as he walked towards the potions classroom in the dungeons - you and Joshua both just ignore him 

“Let’s hex his clothes again with those snakes." 

"Better yet, can we lock him in a broom closet?" 

"Deal." 

and you both walk into your next class, plotting Jeonghan’s imminent doom together
