“What in Merlin’s name were you thinking?!”

Sebastian winced as you cleaned a nasty gash on his chest with a soft cloth soaked in Wiggenweld Potion. In that moment, he wasn’t exactly sure which was worse: the physical stinging pain on his chest, your scalding tone, or the fact that you being angry somehow made you a bit more attractive than usual (not that you weren’t in the first place). You pointed your wand at his wound, muttering an unfamiliar spell: the wound stitched itself back with a translucent, silver thread coming from the tip of your wand. He gave you an appreciative grin while you glowered at him half-heartedly.

“The next time you pull that sort of stunt ever again, I will NOT help you with your wounds, Sebastian!” you huffed angrily, placing the soiled cloth into a bowl filled with water. You headed towards the bathroom to clean up while Sebastian stared at your retreating figure, a fond smile gracing his lips.

It has always been like this eversince the two of you became friends: kind and gentle (Y/N) always worrying about his wellbeing and being a mother hen whenever he got hurt. You’ve been friends with him and Anne eversince early childhood: the three of you were born in Feldcroft and have been living there for as long as you could remember, while Ominis joined your little group during your first year in Hogwarts. All four of you were sorted into Slytherin and were inseparable as a group. Throughout your years as friends, you were aware of Sebastian's penchant for getting himself into trouble and danger, and with how reckless he gets, you made it one of your many missions to study all sorts of healing spells out of concern for the boy. You always looked out for all of your friends, especially Sebastian. It was an oath you had personally took upon yourself.

However, Sebastian's friendship with you wasn’t always smooth. 

The end of 4th year was the start of the worst of his Hogwarts years: with Anne being cursed, Sebastian wasn’t the best person to interact with in general. You tried to help Anne of course, conniving with Sebastian by sneaking into the restricted section together with him and retrieving book after book. You had also asked your mother, who was a healer, to help with Anne's case. Unfortunately, you ended up on the receiving end of Sebastian's misplaced anger when you delivered the grave news he wasn’t ready to hear.

“I'm sorry, Sebastian. My mother tried everything. Anne can't be healed.”

“How could you say that, (Y/N)?! It’s either you’re not trying enough, or you don’t care about Anne enough!”

“That’s not--”

“I'd rather be with someone who’ll be more useful in finding a cure. So, if you’d excuse me, I have a book to read.”

He despised himself for saying such things, but his pride was a difficult pill to swallow. He steered clear from you during 5th year, opting to befriend the new 5th year student instead. It was all for Anne - he thought that the mysterious new student would be the key to finding the cure that Anne needs. At least, that’s what he merely tells himself out of his own miserable denial: during his absence from your life, it was rumored that you had began dating Garreth Weasley, so he decided to date the new student out of spite. It hurt him a lot: seeing you give the same warmth towards Garreth. But of course, being the insufferable prick he was at that time, he’d maintain the façade and pride of being in a relationship with the strongest student in their year.

Then everything just spirals out of control eversince he went into Salazar Slytherin's scriptorium. He had already lost you to someone else, and to further add fuel to the fire, he lost himself to his own madness, ended up murdering his uncle in the heat of the moment, his twin sister refuses to talk to him, his brother-like friendship with Ominis became strained, and his “significant other” breaks up with him after the school year when they no longer needed him. 

He deserved it all - he was stubborn, manipulative, and cruel. He couldn’t argue with that fact, yet you still took him in without any hesitation despite everything he had done.

It was during the first summer that he didn’t have Anne nor his uncle around - the time when he was graced with a slight glimmer of hope in making things right. Ominis was with him in their cottage in Feldcroft as usual, casually reading a book with his wand while lounging on one of the vacant beds. Sebastian was about to prepare their dinner when someone knocked on the door. Upon opening it, Sebastian was shocked to see you standing before him, holding a small pot of warm food.

“... Thought the two of you might be hungry, so I made extra.”

Sebastian teared up.

“(Y/N), I-”

You merely shook your head.

“Eat. We can talk all about it tomorrow,” you said, handing over the pot to Sebastian. “Also, I’m sorry about what happened.”

Sebastian watched you as you headed back to your home. He glanced at the pot he was holding, his heart twisting with both guilt and a slight relief. You had extended an olive branch towards him even if he was supposed to be the one who had to do it, and he felt ashamed yet thankful at the same time. Needless to say, Ominis was rather confused with Sebastian’s behavior, who was sniffling while eating their dinner that evening.

The brunette male chuckled to himself at the fond memory, but was soon snapped out of his reverie when he heard footsteps towards him. You grabbed a blanket and one of the pillows, heading over to the furniture-less spot in the room. 

“You’re sleeping on the floor?” Sebastian bemusedly asked.

“Why yes, I am. You need the bed more than I do. You’re hurt.”

“I was hurt, (Y/N), but I’m fine now thanks to you. We’ve always shared beds when we had sleepovers, so what’s the fuss now?”

“We were children back then, Sebastian. I'm actually a grown woman now, in case you haven’t noticed?”

“Well then, I'll sleep on the floor instead. Can’t have a grown woman sleeping on the floor now, can I?”

You sighed in exasperation, slightly throwing your hands up in disbelief as Sebastian stood up, striding towards you. 

“It’s either I sleep on the floor, or you sleep on the bed with me,” he interrupted before you could even protest against him. You swore you saw his lip twitch slightly into a teasing smirk, causing you to shoot him an irritated glare.

“OW!”

Sebastian rubbed the spot on his arm you just violently pinched, a grin still gracing his face triumphantly regardless of the pain as you sat on the other side of the bed. You were blushing furiously, grumbling about how stupidly inconvenient it was that the current room they were staying in for the night was the only vacant room left in this inn while Sebastian plopped right onto his side of the king-sized bed.

The night was still young, but the both of you were too exhausted with your recently finished mission of retrieving several smuggled dark artifacts from dark wizards. Sebastian was lying face up, staring at the decrepit ceiling of the room while you were laying on your side with your back facing him, quickly falling into a deep slumber due to fatigue. He turned towards you, staring at your back as his mind wandered back to what had occurred earlier.

You almost got hit by a slicing spell - the spell that Sebastian had voluntarily shielded you from at the very last minute. And there you were, chiding him about almost getting killed for saving you. 

Sebastian's fist clenched in silent worry as his eyes remained glued to your sleeping form. The thought of you being fatally injured or worse was undoubtedly his worst fear in this line of work - the both of you being Aurors and as a duo in assigned missions certainly had its perks, but a part of him couldn’t bear to stomach that you, his beloved (Y/N), always had death looming over you. You never were the combative type - you were a healer, not a soldier, yet regardless of that, you’d still accompany him to the ends of the earth to at least make sure he’s alive. It brought a twinge of pain within his chest the more he thought about all that you’ve done, and he hopes that he’d be blessed enough to repay you for your never-ending grace towards him.

Thankfully, your friendship with Sebastian had been mended for the most part these past few years. The bond was fixed somehow, yes - but it was never fully intact. Despite the both of you constantly being in each other’s company because of work, it’s as if you’re always separated from him by some sort of distance he couldn’t quite explain. Even within this small room, Sebastian feels a wash of longing despite you just being an arm’s length away from him. Is it because of the guilt of him pushing you away in the past; the fear of hurting you once again; or the fact that the both of you are always mere inches away from death so there’s no guarantee if one of you would be even alive the next day? 

Several soft sniffles could be heard from you as you shifted around, turning to face him.

“(Y/N)...?”

No response. Sebastian scooted slightly closer, finding a glistening wet trail at your nose bridge. Hesitancy took a hold on him - you were crying in your sleep. He hated seeing that more than anything, and that hate was further amplified by the fact that he didn’t know how to even help you with it without transgressing the invisible emotional boundaries between you and him. He placed his hand on your arm, causing you to stir from your slumber, your eyelids fluttering open.

“Seb...?”

His breath hitched at the old childhood nickname: you hadn’t called him that eversince he pushed you away. Gone were his reservations of keeping a respectable emotional distance from you - not when you said his name in such a soft, vulnerable tone after so long. Warmth enveloped you, snapping you out of your sleepiness. Sebastian had wrapped an arm over you, his palm resting at the back of your head as he pushed you closer towards him. You were about to protest against his actions and push him away, until he murmured his long-repressed wishes in a broken, pleading manner.

“Please just- Let’s stay like this. Even for a while. Merlin, I missed you so much, (Y/N). Please...”

You couldn’t say no to that. Hell, you could never say no to him. 

You succumb to the comfort and safety given by the man you’ve always loved eversince the both of you were children, reciprocating the hug by wrapping an arm around his waist while burying your face into his chest. You recalled the innocent sleepovers that you, Sebastian, Anne, and Ominis usually had back in the Sallow’s cottage - they were truly gems of memories that you held dear in your heart: the times when your circle was still intact, carefree, and blissful. Sebastian would often hug you like this especially when you had nightmares, and his warmth often lulled you into the best, uninterrupted slumbers. You could’ve cried in relief being in his arms once again, but you decided against it. 

He didn’t need any more sources of problems: not when he’s still in a turmoil of guilt, trauma, and the incapability of forgiving himself for what he did as a naïve teenage boy. You would’ve felt horrible if you were to sandwich your pent-up romantic feelings for him into the fray. Sometimes you wished you could rid him from all of this pain deep down, but alas, your healing prowess is only applicable to physical wounds, not mental and emotional ones.

This moment, however, albeit it being a moment of vulnerability with the both of you just lying in each other’s arms, it was truly a test of both of your mental and emotional fortitude. Both of your respective scents engulfed each other’s senses: dizzyingly pleasant, familiar, and comforting, driving you both closer and closer to the edge of self-control. The questions that raced within Sebastian's mind earlier were now getting less and less hazy as he looked at your once tear-stricken face, cupping it while his thumb gave featherlike caresses on your cheek. 

Yes, he felt guilty for pushing you away in the past. Yes, he feared breaking your heart once again. Yes, he feared your possible untimely death that could happen anytime. But that’s not the primary source of his painful longing this entire time. 

It was because he loves you from the start: heads over heels in love to the point he’d unconsciously steer you away from anything that would be cruel enough to steal the light that gave you so much life. He wanted to protect you from everything that would reduce you into ruins - most especially himself. He loves you to the point where it hurts. 

But with you staring at his eyes with the same sense of brokenness and unspoken yearnings, the bubbling desire he had feared and suppressed had finally broken through the walls of his self-control.

He captured your lips with his, inhibitions evidently thrown out of the window as you returned the kiss with equal fervor. Sebastian felt his mind blank out as the kiss became more and more frantic, desperately pulling you in closer to feel you against his body. You gasped for air as the both of you pulled away, gazing at each other’s blown-out eyes. Sebastian trailed his thumb on your lips, admiring your messily breathless and dazed form - even in such an unkempt state, you were still so fucking beautiful.

“This is your last chance to stop me, (Y/N),” Sebastian murmured with a hint of seriousness in his tone. “I don’t think I’d be able to stop myself if we continue.”

You leaned towards him, giving him a peck of reassurance on his red, flushed lips.

“Then don’t,” you breathed out.

Sebastian felt his last remaining trace of self-doubt disintegrate as soon as you whispered those saccharine words with so much pent-up desire. He smiled, gently locking his lips upon yours once more, relishing in your addicting taste. Having you in his arms like this felt so right - you were so utterly pliant, obedient, and needy for him. His hand reached the back of your head, yanking your hair to expose your dainty neck, peppering kisses along your jugular. Your felt yourself shudder, closing your eyes as you indulged in Sebastian's ministrations. 

You yelped as Sebastian climbed on top of you, not breaking the onslaught of his desperate, wet, open-mouthed kisses on your poor neck. He wedged his knee in between your legs, prying them apart. A mewl tore out of your mouth as he nipped on your neck, suckling on the spot and leaving a blooming, purplish red mark on your once unblemished skin. Sebastian growled as he began unbuttoning your blouse while you sat up to meet his lips in yet another fiery kiss, ridding him of his top as well with shaky, eager hands. 

Sebastian yanked the undone clothing off your frame, baring you topless before his hungry gaze. He attached his mouth on your chest right below your clavicle while you straddled him, his arm wrapping around your waist in response to keep you firmly in place. Voluntarily, you maneuvered your hips in a slow, grinding manner on the painfully obvious tent on his pants, earning a pleasured hiss from the brunette as your lips descended upon his, tongues melding with each other in an open-mouthed kiss.

“F-Fuck (Y/N)...!” he panted in between exchanges of depraved kisses, gripping your waist as you pushed yourself down harder on him, controlling the movement of your hips to a faster pace. You let out a shaky groan, feeling the agonizing texture of your growingly wet undergarments sticking on your sensitive core. The aching between your legs grew hot and unbearable, and this was barely even the start of the sheer debauchery the both of you were going to partake in for the night.

Sebastian left a trail of kisses downwards from your lips all the way to your chest while removing your bra in the process. Your chest heaved in pleasure as he took one of your nipples to his mouth, swirling his tongue on the sensitive nub while his other free hand pinched and twisted the other. A cry of pleasure erupted from your bitten-red lips as he gently gave the nub a gentle bite and soothing the pain off by smoothing his tongue and giving it a teasing suck. Sebastian smirked as you let out another loud moan while he gave your other nipple the similar brutal yet pleasurable treatment. At this point, he felt his pants getting soaked from the outside, causing his still concealed member to twitch in anticipation as he felt beads of precum leaking from his tip. Despite the layers of clothing still separating your core from his member, he still felt how deliciously wet you are for him, and he wondered how soaked you truly are beneath all that remaining clothing left. The thought alone made him salivate.

He liked this. He liked having this particular sort of power over you - you had no choice but to just keep taking all the pleasure he’s inflicting upon your sensitively submissive body. A sense of impatience soon took a hold of him, causing him to throw you on the bed, frantically unbuttoning your pants and pulling the garment off your body harshly. Your face flushed in shame at the sudden exposure, instinctively shutting your legs close. A glint of possessiveness was evident in Sebastian's eyes as he pried your legs apart, staring at your translucent, soaked-through undergarments. 

Your heart was thrumming frenziedly in your chest both out of embarrassment and want, covering your poor blushing face as Sebastian peeled the last remaining article of clothing away from your body. He firmly kept your legs apart as he brought his face closer to your wet aching core, watching it clench around nothingness. Sebastian's brain was completely fried, taking in both the heady scent and lewd sight of your most delicate spot. 

“Fuck, you’re so fucking wet.” he rasped, spreading the lips of your pussy before licking a long, wet stripe along your slit. Your back arched, your mouth hanging ajar in a silent moan as heightened pleasures consumed your being for the very first time.

“So fucking sexy.” 

Lick.

“So fucking good for me.”

Sebastian kept murmuring praises in between licks, the sinful sounds of slurping, mewls, and groans filling the room as he licked up your honeypot like a starved man. Your legs trembled as he continued his relentless actions, alternating from licking and prodding at your weeping hole using solely his tongue. You felt a single digit rub against your slit, coating itself with your essence before slipping inside your cavern.

However, you let out a hiss of pain, causing Sebastian to abruptly stop. 

“Are you alright?” he asked. The question itself made you blush.

“I don’t really know how to say this but...”

“But...?”

“... It’s my first time, so...” you meekly said, avoiding eye contact from the half-naked male in front of you. Sebastian's eyes widened in realization.

Oh. You’re a virgin.

That fact alone caused a switch to flip within the male as his eyes darkened with carnal desire.

Animalistic, feral thoughts consumed Sebastian as he spat on your hole aggressively, the lewd action causing you to whimper in delight. He slowly reinserted his finger inside your tight hole, his hot breath fanning over your clitoris as he partook an experimental lick on the sensitive bud. You writhed instinctively, a pleasantly fiery and toe-curling sensation coursing through your veins as you sobbed in pleasure. The mild pain was slowly subsiding as your body responded to the intensity of his foreplay. You were absolutely dripping, and the sheets you laid on now had a wet patch of your juices. One of your hands attempted to grip Sebastian's hair to pry him off your delicate spots, but he had caught your wrist before you could do so, pinning it down on the bed harshly as he continued the deliciously brutal abuse of your pussy and clitoris using his fingers and tongue. He inserted another finger, groaning at how tight your walls felt around his digits. 

Oh, to have his cock inside you - the thought alone made Sebastian rut his hips while he relentlessly flicked his tongue against your sensitive pearl.

Your throat felt dry as you moaned uncontrollably, tears prickling your eyes as your pleasure-driven sobs and cries egged Sebastian to his hasten his pacing, causing your insides to twitch in profane delight. He curled his fingers upwards and suckle on the ball of nerve, occasionally swirling his tongue around it. Your legs began to shudder violently at the frenzy of pleasure coursing through your stimulated body, your toes curling as you cried pathetically, begging Sebastian to slow down his ministrations - a request which fell into deaf ears.

And just like that, you had your very first orgasm. 

Tremors coursed throughout your body as you came down from your high as Sebastian slowly retracted his fingers from your pussy, staring into your eyes as he licked the soaked digits - a sight that made your already abused pussy clench wantonly. He got off the bed, his hands reaching for the waistband of his pants as he unbuttoned it, pulling the article of clothing off along with his underwear. Your eyes remained fixed on his as he climbs back on top of you, resting your eagle-spread thighs on his as he prodded the blunt head of his cock on your virgin hole. You gasped at the sensation as he teasingly rubbed the tip along your slit, juices trickling down from your hole. Curiously, you looked down at his appendage with bleary, pleasure-filled eyes.

Oh Merlin. He's fucking girthy.

You swore you almost drooled at the sight despite the worry at the back of your mind if his cock would even fit in your tight virgin hole. Sebastian leaned in for an oddly gentle kiss despite his prior eagerness and vigor. He languidly licks and suckles on your tongue, grinding his cock on your bare pussy as he groped one of your breasts and trailed his other hand on your thigh. You felt so fucking sensitive under him, your body twitching in delight as you received his raw, carnal adoration. 

Sebastian, however, was having second thoughts deep down hence the sudden gentleness. He was sure his cock was going to fucking break you with how insanely tight you are, and he didn’t want both of your first times to just be about his own pleasure alone. With how utterly feral he was in the moment, he doesn’t trust himself enough to not go ballistic the moment his cock is completely sheathed within your warmth. Prying his lips away from yours, he nuzzled the crook of your neck, inhaling your sweet scent.

“Get on top of me,” he whispered, giving a brief peck on the damp, sweaty skin of your neck. Sebastian sat beside you, his back leaning against the headboard of the bed, snaking an arm around your waist as you straddled him. The both of you gazed at each other, eyes filled with both lust and love, leaning in for another breathy exchange of kisses.

“I love you, (Y/N). I love you so fucking much.”

Sebastian’s frantic, whispered confession against your lips made your heart soar as you sighed against his plump lips, cupping his cheek as he stared into your (e/c) eyes.

“I love you too, Seb. I’m all yours. Only yours.”

Sebastian hummed in response as he nuzzled your neck. He reached for his thick, leaking appendage as you raised your hips, placing your hands on his broad shoulders to stabilize yourself. He spat on his hand and coated his member with his saliva before rubbing the glistening red tip along your slit to further lubricate it as much as he could. He looked up at you, while you meekly nodded in approval. He positioned the head towards your hole while you lowered yourself slowly, engulfing him within your delicate, wet flower.

You gasped in both pain and pleasure as his cock split you open, burying itself inside your pussy inch by inch while Sebastian’s breath quickened, his hands gripping your hips almost painfully as his self-control threatened to slip away with how heavenly your walls felt. His eyebrows furrowed in both concentration and intense pleasure - it took all of his remaining willpower to not thrust himself up into your warm, inviting hole as he peppered your exposed skin with kisses, mapping his hands across every inch of your exposed skin as he steadied his breathing. You let out a cry of pleasure the moment you buried his cock all the way to the hilt, his smooth tip kissing your cervix.

You gave an experimental roll with your hips, causing a whimper to erupt from your lips while Sebastian’s breath hitched in response, bringing his hands to grip the curves of your ass. He guided your hips in a slow, grinding motion, allowing you to get accustomed to his size. The initial burning sensation of the intrusion was melting away as your body succumbed into the pleasure, your juices flowing from your hole the more stimulation you received. You reached for your clitoris, gently rubbing it as you threw your head back, gasping at the amplified sensations that made your thighs quiver in delight.

Sebastian bit his lip at the sight of you pleasuring yourself while he guided your hips, the shameless image burned in his memory for good. You started bouncing up and down his cock - a telltale sign that the pain had already dissipated as you began to lose yourself into lustful desire. Instinctively, he bucked his hips up, earning an eager whine  followed by a string of pleasure-drunk babbles from your lips as you rubbed your clit harder.

“Oh f-fuck! You feel so good. Please, please- Just like that...!”

Despite your wanton pleas, Sebastian lifted you off his lap, causing you to whine at the absence of his cock inside you. You were suddenly pushed down the mattress rather harshly, a gasp escaping from your lips as Sebastian grabbed one of your ankles, throwing your leg above his shoulder while his other hand had two of your wrists pinned right above your head. He slammed his cock back inside your pussy, the both of you groaning in unison at the delicious friction. 

Passionate moans spilled from your lips as Sebastian rammed his hips  against yours, setting a viciously mind-melting pace. The squelching sounds of your bodily fluids alongside the repetitive slapping of wet skin caused your head to spin in delight, your mind in a mania of sinful indulgence. You were utterly helpless and at his mercy, and you fucking loved it. Sebastian's eyes drank the sight before him: your naked body covered with a sheen of sweat, skin littered with multiple hickeys, bitten-red lips, a fucked-out expression, and your legs spread out nice and wide just for him. Only him.

Sebastian freed your wrists, leaning back as his fingers grazed against your swollen-red pearl, rubbing it in circles. A high-pitched whine bubbled from your lips as your hands gripped the sheets, your knuckles turning white. As soon as he started the onslaught of his rough thrusts once again, your mind blanked out as his cock head brushed against a certain, spongy spot within your pussy. 

“Fuck! R-right there!” you cried out, your chest heaving in desperation as you clawed at his arm. Your thighs began to quiver once again, causing Sebastian to smirk knowingly as your eyes rolled back in sheer unadulterated bliss. 

“Please, please- oh fuck, Sebastian!” you babbled, drool trickling down your chin mindlessly as your remaining bits of sanity began to slip away. Sebastian chuckled darkly at your depravity, leaning forward to brutally assault your poor neck with marks once again.

“Go on, pretty girl. Cum for me,” he groaned against your ear, causing a high-pitched moan to suddenly erupt from your throat. Your walls tightened around his member as he growled, rubbing your clit as you rode your high. Globs of your essence spilled from your hole, coating Sebastian’s cock with a translucent, milky substance. 

Despite just having your release, Sebastian was still slamming his cock in and out of your hole, chasing his high while continuing with the abuse of your sensitive spots. Your eyes rolled back as one of his hands wrapped around your neck in a gentle grip, broken whimpers escaping your lips. Sebastian groaned as you gasped for air while tears of pleasure ran down your flushed cheeks - the debauched image of you so utterly broken and cock-drunk solely for him caused his member to twitch inside you as he quickened his pace, tipping him closer and closer to the edge.

“F-fuck, I’m close! Where do you want it?” he hissed through gritted teeth. You pulled him closer, resting your forehead against his as you locked your legs around his waist. He groaned, gazing straight into your eyes as he approached his climax, burying his cock all the way inside your pussy.

Sebastian let out a long, guttural moan, his eyes never leaving yours as his shaft spurted his seed deep inside you. Your walls clenched and twitched as Sebastian slowed his pace, milking any remaining globs of his cum from his cock. The both of you were panting, foreheads pressed together and staring each other with fucked-out yet loving expressions. 

Sebastian reluctantly pulled his now softening member out of your hole, causing you to mewl in response. He laid down beside you, the both of you staring at the ceiling, panting in exhaustion. You felt his hot cum trickle down from your wrecked hole, causing you to blush in realization at what had transpired between you both. 

Shyly, you glanced at Sebastian, who was still panting slightly, a satisfied grin plastered on his face. He got up, giving you a peck on the forehead, before heading towards the bathroom while you remain in your spot. Sebastian returned from the bathroom with a wet towel at hand, voluntarily wiping any filth away from your prior activities with him while looking at each other with adoration. You intended to at least fix the sheets for the both of you. However, a painful sensation coursed through your inner thighs as you tried to move.

“...Uh, Seb? Could you please pass me my wand?” you asked, feeling guilty that you couldn’t be much of service to him in this little aftercare session. Sebastian quirked an eyebrow - your wand was right at the bedside table not far from you. You felt your face burn as he gives you a questioning look, silently demanding for an explanation for your peculiar request.

“... I can’t feel my legs.”

We all know and love the quidditch star James Potter, ever since he first came to hogwarts he has captivated all of us with his charming looks and personality, truly the sun in person!

That's why ever since he reached the number one spot in rumours!'s "Hogwarts' most eligible bachelor" everyone has been desperate for a date with him.

However, James Potter himself just admitted to having a crush! And who wouldn't return this boy's feelings?

Last week we did a poll on who you thought could be this mystery person, here are the results! Stay till the end to find who was voted the most.

6. Severus Snape - 15 votes

Ever since stepping foot in Hogwarts these two seemed to have a strong rivalry, going as far as fighting each other on the hallway!

Despite the last 6 years, they seem to have made up? Since a few months ago they have been seen talking normally like nothing ever happened.

Did something happen between them? Some readers say that love was the glue that fixed old wounds, how romantic!!

5. Peter Pettigrew - 19 votes

Being childhood friends, it wouldn't be such a surprise if something happened between them. They are in the same friend group, have the same tastes, even share a room!

Apparently, some readers close to the boys have said that even though they are in the same group of friends, they seem to be more closed off with each other, preferring to keep to themselves in the group.

It's no doubt they have been though a lot together, maybe it was shared experices what pulled them together.

4. Regulus Black - 22 votes

Being his best friend's younger brother, they see each other quite a lot. But that's not only why this couple is so popular between the students.

Whilst James is caring and charismatic, Regulus is more reserved and mysterious, making them the perfect opposites attract!

"James is like the sun and Regulus the stars" Truly beautiful words by a secret informant.

They have even been seen practicing together. Even though they are enemies and in rival houses! It seems like love knows no limits.

3. Barty Crouch Jr. - 30 votes

What an unexpected duo! At a first glance, they would look like they have nothing in common, however, our readers are more observant than that.

Because Barty is a year younger, their first years together they didn't interact much, but as the years passed they seemed to become closer.

The couple has been caught spending time alone in quiet spaces more than once, and when questioned, they quickly change the subject. How suspicious!

One of Barty's housemates said he even went to look for him to speak privately during valentine's day. What could this mean? Our readers are certainly eager to find out more!

2. Sirius Black - 34 votes

He's James' best friend and has been ever since they first met. They are always together, and some people even refer to them as soulmates!

Sirius' good looks landed him the second spot in most eligible bachelor right next to James. It would be no surprise that they end up together.

The duo is known for their elaborate pranks, always being up to something. That's why even teachers have noticed their habit of constantly touching and whispering to each other.

They may cause trouble, but they certainly cause even more confusion about the nature of their relationship.

With their beauty, I'm sure everyone will have mixed feelings about them becoming a couple.

1. Lily Evans - 40 votes

With a whopping 25% of the votes, miss Lily Evans is positioned on first place.

She's the brightest witch of her age, has a heart of gold and strikingly good looks. They met during their first year and since then they have built a beautiful friendship.

James has shown an interest in Lily many times before, going as far as rejecting other people trying to flirt for her.

And even though Lily used to appear mad at him for these acts, lately she seems much more pleased with him than before.

"This truly is a match made in heaven" their yearmates say.

Everyone is excited about these two, how could you not love them!!

These were the results of the poll, who do you think he will end up with? Send us an owl if you have any more information, we're dying to know!!

The Serpent and the Eagle

Josephine Blanchet, the transfer student from Beauxbatons, brings a dash of French flair to Hogwarts. Her dad's got a new job with the British Ministry, and Josie’s now navigating life at Hogwarts with her cheeky and rebellious younger sister Chloe, who's wears the Hufflepuff colors.

In the midst of magical mischief and Quidditch drama, Josephine and Sebastian start weaving their own story in their sixth year. Sebastian, now rocking the Slytherin Quidditch team, finds his biggest cheerleader in Josie.

But life isn't all enchanted broomsticks and laughter for Josephine. Traumas from her fifth year at Hogwarts haunt her – Rankrok, Rookwood, watching Professor Fig meet his end, and the shadow of Solomon. To cope, she makes a bold choice: Sebastian, her confidant, is tasked with erasing those painful memories. Yet, magic being unpredictable, the spell goes haywire, forcing Josie to grapple with rediscovering their relationship, the closeness they shared, and her friendships, all over again.

(SMUT, NSFW)

The Gunslinger

Dive into Josephine's magical journey during her seventh year at Hogwarts, where an unexpected twist unfolds with the arrival of Vash Stampede, a muggle-born wizard from the gritty streets of New York. His twin brother, Nai, stays behind, but the real surprise lies in the shared magical ability between Josie and Vash.

As they explore their unique connection, Vash, more at home with his silver revolver gun than a wand, adds a distinct flair to the magical mix. Meanwhile, Nai's ambition takes a dark turn as he seeks to harness the untapped potential within their shared ability, aspiring to become the most powerful wizard.

Now, Josephine and Vash find themselves in a high-stakes race against time. Navigating the challenges of their newfound connection, battling against a looming threat, and facing the comfort Vash finds in his unconventional magical tools, they must work together to prevent Nai's dangerous plan from unleashing chaos upon both the magical and muggle realms.

The Road Back to You

Embark on a tale of love, loss, and rediscovery with Anastasia Sprout, a once-sweet Hufflepuff who has matured into the head Auror at the Ministry. Anastasia and Sebastian were inseparable during their Hogwarts days, but life pulled them in different directions after graduation.

Seven years have passed since Sebastian's abrupt departure, leaving Anastasia's heart in pieces. She held onto the hope that one day he'd return, and just as she began losing faith, he reappears in her life. Now, they must navigate the complex journey of reigniting a love that time and distance have tested.

As they come face to face after years apart, the question looms large: Are they still the same people who once shared an intense connection, or have the trials of life shaped them into different individuals?

The Collector: Hogwarts AU

The Collector is a Polstergeist which used to haunt Hogwarts castle for years until he mysteriously disappeared only to be revealed to have been imprisoned by Belos for 400+ years.

The Collector is depicted as a childish and mercurial Poltergeist. He is motivated by simple desires, wanting to have fun and play games with others, which he shows in his interactions with Belos, but much like a child, he gets quite emotional and impatient when his wants are not met. He partakes in theatrics often, speaking riddles and rhymes, although he will quickly give up on harder words. Despite his childlike attitude, the Collector has proven to be cruel and heartless when crossed. With a temperamental nature and great power at his fingertips, the Collector is a dangerous and unpredictable force that will not hesitate to punish those who upset him and terrify others into obeying his demands.

Initially, the Collector was nonchalant about the world around him, as he used his powers freely to manipulate his surroundings to suit his needs. This casual indifference caused him to see others as toys for his amusement, such as viewing the catastrophic events the Fourth Wizarding War would unfold as a fun activity or casually killing Belos by likening his payback for Belos' double-cross as a game of tag. Despite his god-like power, the Collector understood little about mortals, failing to grasp that his warped perception of fun has dire consequences and thinks little of the lives of others. When King tried to show him how harmful turning people into puppets was at one point, the Collector innocently reasoned everything was still a game of pretend, dismissing the people as little more than part of his game. It was also revealed later on that the Collector did not know the fragility of mortal life or what death means to them, showing that everything he did in at Hogwarts was never under malicious intent and always been under the impression he could just bring people back as easily as fixing a broken toy.

Despite all his flaws, the Collector has an honorable side, as he offers the heroes a head start in the game of tag keeps his word, and stops the Draining Spell after King freed him from his prison. The Collector also values what King has to say, and King seems to be the only being he listens to. He also displays some affability with Odalia Blight, whom he sees as a maternal figure, despite making her his servant to his whims.

Due to his childlike nature, he is quite naïve to the point he will take someone's word that they are telling the truth, a trait that has been exploited by others in getting the Collector to help them. As a result of being taken advantage of, the Collector loathes deception, especially when the person turns back on their promise. Despite their overwhelming powers, when Luz, Eda, and King beat him in all the games, the Collector goes to a corner to sulk instead of retaliating, and opens up to Luz when she approaches him. He tells her how disheartened he is that everyone lies to him and manipulates him, even his siblings. The Collector confessed how he just wants to make friends, even if it is just pretend.

For all his callousness, the Collector is not inherently malicious. At heart, he is just lonely and only wishes to make friends. However, having spent a long time imprisoned to be sought after for his magical power, the Collector fears being alone and is wary that people will use him and leave him. A passage in the Collector's storybook further implies that, due to the Collector wanting to use his powers for his amusement, he viewed his race's observance and vindictive ways with disinterest. Coupled with his wish to be friends with King and make him happy, it is shown that the Collector yearns to have a companion like him who understands him. However, he is alien to how friendships work, at one point he asked if they were formed by forcing someone others to be with them. Another consequence of this desire for companionship is the Collector getting bitter and resentful when those he befriends express strong attachments with other people. This is displayed by his feeling envious of King's friendship with Luz. He initially believes that King is his friend and would never turn against him, but after Belos, comes to believe King is planning to stop him, and becomes vengeful of King's double-cross and decides to trap Luz, Eda, and King into nightmares to teach them a lesson.

Yet even his envy does not seem to supersede his interests; after they break free, the Collector still desires to befriend them, going against Belos' suggestion of wiping them out, showing that despite any animosity he might have against people who might betray them or feel jealous of, the Collector would rather befriend people than destroy them. He wants friendship so much that he’s willing to befriend even Luz, despite being manipulated into thinking she’s there to stop him and take King away. Upon a new suggestion, the Collector goes to play with her, Eda, and King, wanting to show them how much fun he can be and blissfully unaware of how dangerous and potentially deadly his games are. He's unable to understand why his new playmates are hurting him when they start to defend themselves from the mortal games. It doesn't take long for the disheartened Collector to open up to Luz as soon as she approaches him, showing his desperation in wanting someone to understand what he’s been through. When she, along with Eda and King, shows him how they became friends and takes him on a trip around the Forbidden Forest recalling their adventures, the Collector starts to open up more and bonds with them, starting to see a new dimension to friendship he never realized before.

After this, the Collector makes an honest effort to be kind to people, once Luz shows him how she befriended people like Amity and Lilith through kindness and forgiveness and not through forcing them like he initially thought. However, the Collector took the lesson too much by heart and tried to do the same to Belos, naively assuming anyone could be forgiven. He could only act in shock and confusion when he saw Belos still tried to kill him, and when Luz took a blast meant for him and died in his hands, the devastated Collector finally understood what death meant when he was unable to bring her back, now fully aware of the destruction and misery he has caused. The revelation sees a change in the Collector, as he cries at the fact he hurt many people so carelessly that he shows sadness and empathy for the first time and is devastated for indirectly causing Luz’s death. Furthermore, he reacts in befuddlement to what tears are after his eyes begin producing them, completely at a loss of words for what the feelings mean, never feeling that kind of grief before.

Following the revival of Luz, the Collector expresses a wish to save others to make up for his misdeeds. He volunteers to save everyone still left inside the castle while Luz, Eda, and King deal with Belos, and after he's defeated, an exhausted Collector is afraid Luz's friends will punish him and cowers, but is delighted when Amity helps him up.

After the Fourth Wizarding War officially ended, the Collector turns everyone back to normal and decides to return to Hogwarts to reflect and grow up on his own, signifying his adopting a more responsible mindset. With a new appreciation of life, he also becomes open to forming real bonds with the people around him. He is deeply touched when King gifts him Francois before departing and gifts Luz a two-way mirror so she can communicate with her mother whenever she wants. Despite living at Hogwarts now, the Collector visits his new friends from time to time, putting up a spectacular display of shooting stars for Luz as a birthday present in gratitude for everything she’s done.

[nocturnal-obsessions]

Two days had passed since Dynis Arden's sudden disappearance from Hogwarts, and a sense of unease had settled over the school. The professors had conducted a thorough search of the castle and its grounds, but there was no sign of the missing Gryffindor student. Whispers of concern and speculation filled the air as students and staff alike wondered about her fate.

Among the concerned faculty members, Severus Snape had been particularly preoccupied. He had been, after all, the last person to interact with Dynis before her vanishing act. His thoughts were consumed by worry, and his usually stern countenance was marked by a rare hint of concern.

It was late afternoon when Snape ventured into the Forbidden Forest, a place of shadowy mysteries and untamed dangers. He had a hunch, a gnawing suspicion that drew him deeper into the ancient woods. As he walked cautiously among the towering trees, his sharp senses picked up on a faint sound—a distant murmur of voices.

Following the sound, Snape emerged into a small clearing bathed in dappled sunlight. There, seated upon a weathered stump, was Dynis Arden. Her face was turned toward a group of centaurs, and she was engaged in a conversation that seemed to flow seamlessly between her and the enigmatic beings.

The centaurs, their equine bodies regal and their human heads wise, regarded her with a mixture of curiosity and respect. They were a reclusive and proud race, seldom interacting with wizards and witches.

Snape watched in silence for a moment, he had heard rumors of Dynis's encounters with the centaurs, whispers that she had formed a bond with them since she got lost in the Forest in her third year. Yet, her secret friendship with these beings had remained well-hidden.

Clearing his throat, Snape stepped forward, and the centaurs turned their inscrutable gaze toward him. Dynis looked up, her freckled face showing both surprise and fright.

"Professor Snape," she said, her voice tinged with a mix of emotions. "I… I can explain."

Snape raised a hand, a rare gesture of leniency. "There will be time for explanations, Miss Arden. But for now, I would like to speak with you privately."

The centaurs exchanged glances but made no move to interfere as Dynis rose from the stump and followed Snape into a more secluded part of the forest. There, amid the whispering leaves and rustling undergrowth, he turned to her, his dark eyes searching her face.

"Where have you been, Miss Arden?" he asked, his tone a mixture of sternness and genuine concern. "The entire school has been worried about your disappearance."

Dynis hesitated, her gaze dropping to the forest floor. "I needed time alone, Professor. Time to think."

Snape studied her carefully, his gaze unwavering. "Miss Arden, you must understand the risks of disappearing like this, especially in a place as dangerous as this forest. I knew you were reckless and foolish, but I didn't think you were a complete idiot."

She flinched at his words, then hung her head. "I know, Professor. I didn't mean to cause concern. It's just… things have been complicated." Summoning her courage, she looked up into his dark eyes, her voice trembling. "I didn't know what to do, and I was scared of your reaction."

The confession hung in the air between them, a weighty silence settling in the forest. Snape regarded her with a mix of surprise and something else—a hint of understanding that seemed to soften his features.

"Miss Arden," he said quietly, "we will discuss this further, but for now, we should return to Hogwarts before they summon your parents. Don't think that this foolishness will not cost your House another twenty points."

I Can Fix Him (No Really I Can)

I Can Fix Him (No, Really, I Can) https://ift.tt/niup67v by lua_galman Since her sixth year at Hogwarts, Hermione Granger finds herself inexplicably drawn to Draco Malfoy. When she witnesses Ron kissing Lavender Brown, Draco is the one who comforts her. This unexpected interaction leads her to see Draco not as the cruel, arrogant Slytherin but as a young man imprisoned by circumstances beyond his control. After the war, they return to Hogwarts for a mandatory eighth year, during which they are appointed as Head Boy and Head Girl, forcing them to work closely together. Despite knowing he could spell trouble, Hermione can't help but grow more attracted to Draco. She is determined to solve the mystery that is Draco Malfoy, hoping that they might be able to save each other.   Inspired by Taylor Swift’s song “I Can Fix Him (No Really I Can)” and some other fragments of The Tortured Poets Department.

[libellule-ao3]

Hello lovely 🖤

Can I please have 2 and 9 for Annie and 13 and 23 for Evelyne please?

Missed you

Hello,

Thanks for your asks! 💙💚

2. What's something about your OC that people wouldn't expect just from looking at them?

Annie - Hogwarts Mystery - is an assertive character, very sociable and with a lot of charisma. You'd never expect her self-esteem to be so low. But her father preferred his career so much that he left the family home after Annie was born to pursue his profession/passion 100%. Jacob always chose adventure and new quests over spending time with her. And after Jacob's disappearance, his mother preferred to drown her sorrows in calming potions, which she quickly became addicted to, rather than look after her, who was only a child. This succession of events leaves Annie with the feeling that, despite her best efforts, she is not worthy of love. This idea is so ingrained that she is even convinced for a time that Rowan preferred to sacrifice herself and die rather than live and remain her friend.

9. Do you have a specific lyric or quote which you associate with your OC?

When Jae Kim realises all that's been said in my previous answer, 😅 he tells her a few words that she'll try to keep in mind so that she's no longer dependent on others to appreciate herself.

"Don't judge yourself by how others behave towards you, even if they leave you. Love yourself unconditionally and you'll see, you'll be freer than anyone else because you won't depend on anyone to know your worth."

13. If you met your OC, would the two of you get along?

Evelyne - Hogwarts Legacy - and I don't have many common interests and we're both introverts, so it would be difficult to forge a solid bond under these conditions. We're more suited to living side by side, in a climate of trust, without disturbing each other, than to forging a friendship in the usual sense. If I were a pupil at Hogwarts, she'd be the pupil I'd sit next to when I wanted to be alone and not interact with the others. 😅And she'd feel comfortable enough around me because I'd never ask her about the bandage around her neck or her past. We'd need a third party or a trigger to change that dynamic.

23. What emotion is the hardest for your OC to process? How about express?

Anger. Evelyne is rarely able to express her anger, even when someone hurts her or treats her unfairly. This makes her feel bad, because she can see when it would be right to express her anger to assert her rights or defend her boundaries, but her insecurities prevent her from doing so (she's afraid of how others will react, of hurting Professor Garlick's feelings, of being expelled from Hogwarts and sent back to the Hell she came from).

She therefore opts to withdraw, which means she can't free herself from her negative emotions or the abusive situation that caused them.

[dracossweetie1331]

request! i always love to see interactions between draco and his mum. maybe something through the ages, from childhood, to teenager, to adult. how she talks to him and how they interact. it always felt like they had a beautiful relationship in the books, with him getting those sweet packages, cannot imagine how having voldemort in the house might have influenced that.

summary: draco and our beloved cissys bond full of love

warning: not a draco x reader it’s a narcissa x draco a son x mom relationship

—————————————————————————————————— Narcissa’s pov

Today was fianally the day, my little boy was faintly going to Hogwarts! Of course I was so happy but I also felt a bit of sadness. Draco was going to Hogwarts his first step of growing up…..

“Draco, come on it’s time to go” I hear my husband calling in his stern voice,oh why can’t he be a bit softer. Draco came rushing down the stairs, a girl grin on his face.

he gave his suitcase to dobby and looked ready as ever. But I knew something was wrong. After Lucius when outside I called draco to the garden. He started urging me that we’ll be late and that we should head off but I just looked at him with a small smile.

Draco pov

I had a sick feeling that I might miss the train but with my father here I knew that would be impossible. I knew why mother had called me,like all mothers she had sensed something wrong. the truth was I was really exited to go to Hogwarts but…..I knew that I would miss my mother a lot, father on the other hand wouldn’t be a problem. I would miss her bedtime stories,when she told me about her favourite flowers and how she always was my motivational support.

“Something going on your mind dear?” Ugh she always knows. Instead of replying I hug her tightly. I hear her chuckle as she wraps her hands around me just as tight. “ I’ll miss you” i mumble. She looks at me and says “you won’t have to I’ll write to you so much that you’ll fell like im right next to you” I laugh.

“Time go hurry up now!” Father just had to ruin it didnt he. Hand in hand me and mother go to the carriage im starting a new life now and I know that she will unconditionally support it.

Hogwarts 1st year

mother was so happy that I had gotten sorted into slytherin she’d written so much in her past letter. I told her that the famous Harry Potter had made a very bad decision of declining my friendship and had formed an alliance with weasley. She told me it was very pathetic of potter to do so.i defiantly agree.She told me that father was pleased to , not that I care I just hope he wasn’t being a jerk to her.

Hogwarts start of 3rd year

Narcissa’s pov

He ran his hand through his hair for the 10th time.Draco had stopped putting so much hair gel thinking it would give him a mature look. Surely he looked so much more grown up with his hair aloof.

“Draco, stop messing your hair you look wonderful” i reassured him for the 5th time. He sighed and said “I don’t know what to do with it,it’s just so….. free” “then why did you stop using hair gel in the first place?” I asked. He cheeks turned the slightest bit red and I suspected that a girl was behind this.

“Uhh,you know just to uhhh look more slytherin” he said stuttering. I raised my eyebrow “your a malfoy, your the most slytherin anyone can look like , is there another reason?” I avoided my eyes and mumbled “well umm there’s this girl who said that she’ll date me if I loose the hair gel” I smirked. No one can hide stuff from their mother.

“Well then I’m sure she’ll swoon when she sees you, would you like to talk about her?” After some hesitation he started talking about this mysterious girl a little, soon enough he couldn’t stop. He went in for hours until Lucius called us to get to the platform. I wonder what dracos going to write in his letters this time.

Malfoy manor draco is at hogwarts 5th year

My owl swooped in and dropped a letter on my lap.i gave it some food and then sat down to read the letter.

dear mother, I hope you are well, I have a lot of things I’ll like to tell you. I think you already know about umbrigde right? Well I joined this group of hers which gives me extra credit. It’s not really fun but all the slytherin are doing it. We have to catch some rebellion potter has started , honestly he can’t let people enjoy a normal school year for once! I have some other news which is uhhh fairly hard to say or write…….don’t worry I haven’t got expelled it’s just that I think that……I’m gay………….just joking, did u freak out do u think father will if I do this to him? Anyways I’m not gay and I’m still dating pansy and no she is not the girl who I was attracted to in my third year,fathers writing me some suspicious letters everything alright? Love draco

curse Lucius! Why can’t he just shut up for once. The dark lord has been trying to recruit draco for ages. I can’t believe Lucius will agree to that! I’ll have to talk to him.

3 days before year 6

How could I have let this happen! Not only is my husband in azkaban but now I let my son take his replacement. I swore to protect him, oh god I failed miserably.

I knock in his door quietly. After 10 minutes he opens it. He looks so tired. All of this is because of me. “It’s not your fault mother” his voice brings me back . I shake my head and take his hand “your going to be ok draco you know that right?” “I’m going to do everything I can to protect you” he nods his head and to offer the little comfort I can give I hug him. I sigh in relief as he hugs me back.

time passes he fianally let’s go, he dismisses himself by saying he needs to do some research on his task, which was to kill dumbledore. If dracos life was not at stake I would crucio the dark lord until he was worse than the long bottoms. Honestly thinking that a 16 year old boy could kill atheist greatest wizard of all time I mean

he’s just a boy

but I swore to protect him. I will keep that promise and do whatever it takes. I guess it’s time pay a visit to none other than

Severus snape

Jane "Eleven" Hopper: Hogwarts AU

Jane Hopper is a Pureblood witch that was born on the 19th of February 1982 and started attending Hogwarts on the 1st of September 1993, being sorted into Hufflepuff House.

She has a Willow wand with a Unicorn Hair core.

Her Patronus is Non-Corporeal.

Her favorite subject is Charms and her least favorite subject is Defense Against the Dark Arts.

Raised inside the Department of Mysteries and completely deprived of socialization, Eleven was timid, socially withdrawn and extremely cautious of other people. However, she became fiercely protective and showed unyielding loyalty towards those who cared for her, especially to Mike whom she fell in love with, to the point of sacrificing herself to destroy the dementor when it threatened to harm her friends. Even after being separated for a year, Eleven showed considerable determination in saving her friends by reuniting with them at Hogwarts under a fake name when she sensed them to be in grave danger.

If Eleven attempted to defy Dr. Brenner's orders when under his control, she would be locked in a cramped room as punishment, potentially for hours on end. These painful experiences lead her to develop severe claustrophobia. She also showed some signs of post-traumatic stress disorder, frequently remembering her harrowing experiences at the department following her escape.

Despite her life being clouded with people manipulating and bullying her, El is shown to be incredibly empathetic, sweet, and curious about the world. Her sheltered life has left her incredibly emotional, becoming distraught easily in a dangerous or somber setting. As she grows older, El never loses her compassion, but begins to be careful on who to extend that compassion to. El's friends and family are her upmost priority, willing to do anything and everything for them even if it threatens her life.

Due to a very limited vocabulary, she could not effectively communicate her thoughts and emotions and had little to no understanding of simple concepts such as friendships or promises. These difficulties communicating often lead to misunderstandings with her friends. Despite this, she was a quick learner and came up with creative ways of explaining concepts as shown when she flickered the curtaibs to explain the nature of the Veil of Death.

Episodes of intense stress and fear had the potential to trigger Eleven's magic, releasing it in unpredictable and sometimes dangerous ways. She was reluctant to harm innocent life and had no malicious intent but was sometimes forced to maim or kill in extreme circumstances. She did not take this lightly as these instances were always followed by strong feelings of guilt and self-loathing (not to mention the physical toll these acts had on her body). Despite having killed before, upon being pressured by Kali into trying to kill, she refused to after seeing the man she was about to kill had children and then stopped Kali from killing him. In every event of having to resort to killing someone, she has done it in self-defense.

After nearly an entire year of living with Hopper, Eleven's vocabulary expanded significantly, although she still struggled to understand complex words and social cues. Eleven also learns to be more independent when she forms a friendship with Max Mayfield and to start making her own choices. When discovering Vecna's return, Eleven became onboard to stopping him and when viewing the memories of the possessed Billy Hargrove, she sympathizes with him for having an abusive father which allows him to break free from Vecna's control over him.

When losing her father temporarily, El is forced into a new environment at Durmstrang that leaves her having difficulty adjusting to social interaction beyond her Hogwarts friends. As bullying from her classmates worsens to the point she acts out with physical violence, El sinks into a solemn belief that she is a "monster" instead of the "superhero" her friends put her up as. Upon having the chance to regain control of her powers, El undergoes a special training program, and slowly overcomes her belief that she is a "monster", overpowering Brenner's manipulation and coldly rejecting his dying attempts to gain sympathy for his horrific actions.

ps i lowkey ship my mc with tonks but like mostly in the way that they both like each other a little but never once talk about it
