The theory of blow magic - The girls get it - 7/9

Warning: minor sexual references (nothing major), swearing (but old fashion ;-) )

Too many characters to fit in a picture, which was delaying me so I said no thank you. We now enter the HPMA era.

Characters mentioned here or in passing belong to: @kc-and-co @lifeofkaze @flareshogwarts @the-al-chemist

Chatter drifted above the heads of multiple students crossing the halls of the school, left and right a subtle buzz of voices and laughter. Sturdy combat boots of the latest fashion tapped against the cold floor as Scarlett made her way to her group of friends.

“Well it’s here, just like last year for Nova.” She slapped down on the cold fountain stone a yellow stained page between Dana and Saffron.

“The curse followed you?” Saffron said, taking the page in her hand to read it “This is some very odd ritual, why would someone need sixty-nine candles, a bathtub in which to scrub for one hour in direct moon light.” Peering closer, she added “Bathtub can be replaced with a lake or any large body of water and a sponge of the finest quality in a slightly elongated oval shape?”

Dana leaned closer to her friend, inspecting the instructions further down the page “Left hand in” she angled her head to better see the fading drawing “what is that shape? Blow at a certain angle, nails not touching?” she looked up at Scarlett, sheltering her eyes from late autumn sun above them “Sounds like a fancy way of taking a bath and doing your manicure? Oh do you think the theory of blow magic is actually a spell for drying nail polish faster?”

Lowering her heart shaped sun glasses down her nose, Scarlett ran her piercing across her upper teeth “If anyone is inventing a spell for that it’s me. Sounds like a long explanation for a fancy spa day, or whatever qualified as spa back in those days. Do you think they washed properly?”

Saffron looked at them “I think, they had the same baths at school. It could be a way to blow dry your hair explained in another page that’s around school.”

Rolling her eyes, Scarlett tried to remember what the page Nova had back when she was year seven. Looking up at the school, she cursed out loud for the lack of signal “I can’t wait for this year to be over. I’m done with the old era vibe.” Sticking her tongue out she locked eyes with a professor “Not aimed at you so don’t flatter yourself.”

“Five points from Slytherin.”

“Of course. What else is new? Are you sure you still have points left to deduct or are you sabotaging future generations as well?” she yelled, several heads turning, some groaning, housemates having forsaken the chance of winning the most house points ever since she started causing chaos left and right “Well that went well.” She scoffed looking at her friends.

“What did?” Turning around to say something nasty, she only grimaced when she looked up to see Dorian “Aha you have one too.” Reaching inside of his pocket, he produced a single sheet of paper with only one line written on it “I think someone is playing a prank on me honestly.”

Handing the paper over to the girls, they looked at the line over and over again, confusion between their brows followed by realization and a fit of laughter erupting as Scarlett read out loud “Thou shall ingest a satchel of Richards.” Giving him back the paper, she nodded her head “Fancy way of saying you can suck it. Hey, while you’re here, why don’t you go ask your dad about this magic theory?”

“No thank you.” Dorian immediately dismissing the idea “Something tells me I can’t go to my father with this, he would give me detention for sure.”

Dana gave him an apologetic look, feeling in a sense sorry for him. Having a parent be a teacher at the school appeared counterproductive on even the best day.

“Sorry.” Saffron whispered as if feeling his pain and reading Dana’s mind.

“Oh yay, you have more.” A voice enthusiastically spoke from the other side of the yard, Phil jogging over to them “Can I have them?” he asked pointing at the papers.

Giving him a confused look, Scarlett asked “Why?” before she could even think about what the explanation would actually mean.

“Glad you asked” pointing a finger in her face, he smiled down at her “I want to get on top of it and finish this quest before it reaches me in my last year.” Taking the pages without even asking, he stuffed them in his school bag.

“You do know Hogwarts isn’t a fancy open world game right?” Scarlett asked. Taking a small box from his pocket he started turning the handle on its side, music playing “What is that?”

“Boss music from the latest expansion on the game we were playing.” Clearing his throat he continued “If I am to embark on this quest, I will use all my wits in order to ensure this dungeon gets completed in maximum time with all my stats intact.” The small group shared a confused look between themselves “Onwards to my group of knights. Good day to you ladies” he took a bow “And you my good sir.”

Dorian blinked watching him jog away “I…what did I just witnessed.”

“You get used to it.” Dana smiled causing Scarlett to roll her eyes.

“Do you though?”

“So what do we do about the curse now?” Saffron asked.

“We let Phil handle it. I don’t have time for this blow theory.”

Shrugging his shoulders, Dorian smiled “I still think someone is pranking me.”

“You’re not that interesting to prank Winger.” Strutting away, Scarlett left them alone, wandering inside the castle in search of more interesting activities. If anything needed blowing, it was some steam. She has had enough of the weird school she found herself in.

James has planned Lily', Remus', Emma', and Pandora's birthdays, and he even has his other friends' birthdays all planned out months in advance. But that's not the point. When James woke up the morning of his birthday, no one was there to greet him like last year. Then, again, Peter, Remus, and Sirius aren't morning people.

Yeah, that's it. They're just not morning people and don't want to get up that early. They'll tell him happy birthday when they wake up.

They did not unfact tell him happy birthday when they woke up. They even went to breakfast and nothing. The girls didn't even remember.

Today, James was supposed to go to meet Regulus at the Astronomy Tower, but he wasn't feeling it today, so he decided to go to the Slytherin common room.

He just got in there when someone jumped on his back. "Happy Birthday, Jamie!" He hears his best friend say.

"Marls," James says, laughing. "What are you doing?"

"Your surprise isn't ready yet."

"What surprise?"

"For your birthday?"

"What?"

She jumps back off his back and walks in front of him. "Did Sirius not remember?"

"No one did, Marls."

"That's not true."

"Yeah, it is. Sirius, Remus, Peter, they didn't remember. Mary, Lily, and Alice didn't either. I thought you didn't."

"Oh, Jamie. Well, we remembered. Me, Cas, Dora, Ev, Bee, Em, Lin, Reg. We did."

"It's fine. I don't need anything. Can you tell Reg I won't be up at the Astronomy Tower tonight? Thanks. Love you." James didn't even wait for Marlene' reply before walking out.

He went straight to his dorm to grab his broom before walking back out to the Quidditch pitch. He was practicing for at least an hour before someone flies up to him.

"James," he hears his boyfriend say.

"What's up, Reg?" James replies with a big fake smile.

"James,"

"What?"

"Marlene told me."

"That I don't have time to go see you tonight?"

"No, well, yes, but something else, too."

"What?"

Regulus sighs. "That no one remembered your birthday."

"It's fine."

"No, it's not."

"I'm fine, Reg."

"No, you're not. Now stop lying. It's not healthy."

"I lie every day!"

"James,"

James doesn't answer him and just flies down to the ground before walking back up to the castle. Dorcas is already there waiting. She stands up when she sees him.

"Hey, James. Ready for your party?"

"No, I'd rather not. Thanks anyway, Cas. Have fun, though."

Dorcas' eyebrows furrow before James walks past her and in the castle.

After his shower, he goes back to the common room just to sit and relax, and not even ten minutes after he sat down, Emmeline comes in going straight for him.

"I'm not in the mood, Lin."

"Dorcas is sad because she spent all day planning this party for you, and you're not even there. Now what the fuck is wrong with you?"

"Nothing, ok?"

"No, there's something clearly wrong with you. You won't even come to your own party."

"I'm just not in the mood."

"You blew off your own boyfriend, James."

"You really want to know?"

"Yes!"

"My own friends forgot my own birthday! Do you think I want to celebrate that!? No, I don't, Lin! That's why I'm sitting here <alone> in my own common room on my birthday! Because no one remembered but you!"

"James,"

"No, don't start. Please. I'm fine."

"That did not seem like you're fine."

"I promise. Just go back and have fun."

"Will you at least come for Dora?"

James sighs. "Why do you have to do that to me?"

Emmeline smiles. "Because I know you can't say no to her."

"Fine."

"Yay!" Emmeline grabs James by the hands and pulls him up off the couch and out the portrait hole. Emmeline yells, "Birthday boy is here!" As soon as they get to the Slytherin common room.

Pandora come bounding up, smiling. "Hi, James."

"Hey, Panda."

"Are you ok?"

"Yeah, I'm fine."

"Well, Dorcas and I planned everything so, I hope you like it."

"Of course I will, Dora. You're the best."

She smiles even wider. He can't lie, James did have fun. He got to spend time with his friends and his best friend and even got some gifts from them. Even though some of his friends forgot his birthday, he still loved it.

So, when James was just sitting in the common room with Sirius, Remus, Peter, Mary, Lily, Alice, and Frank after the party, he didn't expect anyone to come in. Instead, Emma, Emmeline, Dorcas, Pandora, Evan, Barty, Marlene, and Regulus came in the common room marching straight for them.

"Sirius Orion Black!" Sirius' eyes go wide as soon as Marlene said it.

"What'd I do?"

"Do you know what day it is today?"

"I don't know. Why are they here?"

"Not important. Think real hard."

"Why? What'd I do?"

"You all did something." Emma speaks up.

"Em,"

"Shut it, James."

"Did he -"

"Think hard, Black."

"Why am I Black, and he's James?"

"Think." Emmeline says. "What day is it at the end of the month. What important event is there?"

"I don't know!"

"It's called a birthday!" Evan yells.

"Remus' birthday!?"

"That's already passed, dipshit." Barty remarks.

"I don't know!"

"It's James!" Dorcas yells in return. "It was James' birthday today!"

"What?"

Marlene grabs James by the arms and pulls him up. "Hey! I was comfy."

"Too bad."

"How would you even know that?"

Pandora looks at Regulus expectedly. James looks at them confused in return.

Regulus sighs. "Because he's my boyfriend, Sirius."

"Yeah, we all knew Crouch was your boyfriend. What's new?"

Barty looks shocked at Sirius. "What?"

"We all knew, Crouch."

"We are not dating."

Remus looks between all of them together. Remus' mouth falls open in shock. "Sirius, I think they mean James and Regulus are dating."

"I - why - um - what?"

Barty laughs. "Funniest reaction ever."

"What!? You're dating my baby brother!?"

"Scream it from the rooftops, will ya?" Emma says.

"James, I'm sorry." Lily says, standing up with Mary.

"Yeah, really sorry, James." Alice says.

"Shut up." Pandora remarks.

Everyone whips their head at her. "Did she just -?"

"I think she did."

"Nice one, sis."

"I didn't know she could do that."

"Me either."

"Come on, James." Marlene says, dragging him back out the portrait hole.

"Where are we going?"

"We're staying in the Slytherin dorms tonight."

"Prongs!"

"Shut the fuck up."

Have you read The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes? 🎼🕊️🪱

If you have not read it, what do you think about the title? What characters represent birds and snakes?

*spoiler alert*

If you have read it, how birds and snakes play a part in the narrative? Also what do you think about Mockingjay role in the original trilogy and this prequel?

Thank you.

@curiousnonny

ofc!!! literally I live for BOSAS. like I’ve read it so many times I’ve lost count.

I think the second part is supposed to be if I have, even if not I’m gonna answer anyways, but I love the title, especially because Lucy Gray loves ballads.

Like she literally writes them. And this is their own story- of themselves. Which also really represents them, writing stories about themselves lol.

I think that the Coriolanus and Lucy Gray are the snake and songbird respectively. While I have seen cases made for the other way around, and some points are valid, I can’t really understand it as well.

Maybe that could be interpreted as how they’re not too different overall. How sometimes, when you love someone, you start to adopt parts of them you wouldn’t have normally, and you take parts of each other too. Idk. But Coriolanus is definitely a snake, not a songbird, and Lucy Gray is definitely a songbird although she for sure could be a snake.

Coriolanus is constantly tricking and manipulating people & things for his own gain (snakelike behavior), is in general a snob, and very ambitious. Lowkey I’m just naming slytherin behavior but you get the idea.

Of course, Lucy Gray loved to sing, but she also knew where danger was and how to avoid it, like Mockingjays did. She sang songs passed down from Covey member to Covey member and still kept her own voice, making songs of her own too. She is who she is because of something naturistic (the Covey) and something Capitolistic (the Games), like the Mockingjays.

Really I think that’s just surface level, and the most obvious (imo) but there’s many other things the songbirds & snakes could represent in the book too.

Like the fact Lucy Gray used snakes as crutch, and knew how to manipulate them (hmmm, makes you think of how she treated Coriolanus, who I’ve alr labeled as a snake), and how Coriolanus’ first military order/idea thing was to immediately get rid of Mockingjays (a songbird, which I’ve alr related Lucy Gray to) because they…unnerved him. And covered it up by saying target practice.

I think this shows how they saw each other, although both at different parts in the relationship- Lucy Gray saw Coriolanus as someone to help her stay alive during the beginning of their relationship and used him for that, and at the end, Coriolanus couldn’t handle Lucy Gray leaving him so he starts blindly shooting (remember- he wasn’t too good at catching Mockingjays). It’s why songbirds is first- she’s the beginning. Coriolanus, a snake, is what leads to the end.

Songbirds and Snakes could also be a metaphor for the capital vs the districts.

The districts, the songbirds, flocking to what keeps them safe yet never actually being guaranteed it. The snake, the capital, controlling said songbirds. It’s a ballad of the differences between the two, a showcase of what they represent and what happens when you mix two of them. I don’t think BOSAS is a love story, but it’s not not one, either.

Genuinely a case could be made for Dr. Gaul & Sejanus being the snake & songbird. The snake constantly toying with the songbird. The songbird who has a voice but is constantly confused on how to use it.

It could also be a nod to how important both songbirds and snakes are to the story, but I’ll get to that in the next question.

This is basically a testament to how all-encompassing the songbirds and snakes are, and how many things they can be interpreted as.

Ok, yay, now next question!!

The story wouldn’t be what it is without birds and snakes.

Coriolanus’ first sighting of Lucy Gray is her dropping a snake down Mayfair’s dress. This drastically impacts how the capital and how Coriolanus view her from then on- a preformer and a fighter. Without that small act of rebellion, and the performance onstage, she wouldn’t have half as many sponsors or interest in her.

Lucy Gray also leaves a small snake as a present for Coriolanus when he tries to kill her. Like a last goodbye, almost. That snake really drove the point home Lucy Gray wasn’t playing around or anything. She was fr. It shows Coriolanus who he thinks she truly is, and drives the point home she’s wrong for him.

Songbirds are a bit trickier/less obvious. Songbirds help represent the differences between them- Lucy Gray’s love of music, Coriolanus’ tolerance of it. Lucy Gray’s love of freedom, Coriolanus’ disgust of it (in large portions when anyone other than him has it).

As I mentioned earlier, Coriolanus, upon hearing them for the first time, wants all the Mockingjays dead. He literally can’t help saying how much he hates them ((as we see with him & Dr. Kay, while he usually has good control. Also good lesson on how songbirds (Lucy Gray) make him lose control)).

Songbirds provide a gruesome opportunity to show Coriolanus’ true colors.

Last question! Ok lowkey feel like that all sorta answered it, but I love the mockingjays. They’re such a vibe, honestly, and I love how crucial they are to BOSAS and the OG series.

Rue’s whistles (representing safety and codes).

Coriolanus’ hatred (representing his hatred & slowly sliding grip on self control).

Their mutative state (the capital can’t control everything, good always wins, yada yada what Katniss says basically).

Like what a W for birds all around, honestly. I’d love one that just sits outside my window all day.

As always, thank you for the question @curiousnonny, and anyone else feel free to debate but not argue these points in reblogs or replies, but please stay civil.

Week 3's content!

I've mentioned before but hara ends up with sebastian so for prompt 1 this is what i think their amortentia would smell like!

Now of course, they smell each other, but I feel like some of these seem.... a little bit weird so explanation time!

Sebastian smells:

• a hint of metal - this is because of milo (hara's pet niffler,) since he is with her almost 100% of the time, she always has some kind of treasure on her for him, whether it's jewellery or coins.

• freshly baked brownies - when she's stressed out, hara likes to sneak into the hogwarts kitchens and bake with the company of the house elves. Her favourite thing to make is brownies

• library smell - (aka just the smell of a lot of books) now getting more simple, she just owns a lot of books because she loves to fund new spells and brews to better her skills both with dueling and just everyday magic

• forest air - again a pretty simple one, she spends a lot of time out exploring so she carries a hint of the scent from outdoors.

• burning - her favourite spells to use in combat are confringo and bombarda, due to her exploring she comes across a lot of enemies so again she carried the faint smell from the spells.

Hara smells:

• parchment - in this version of the hogwarts legacy universe, sebastian is also the somewhat studious type - to the point where him and hara have a friendly (sort of) academic rivalry, so he often carries around parchment to take notes in class.

• earthy damp cave smell - I wasn't really sure how to word this one but imagine that kind of smell you'd get when exploring one of the caves in game, this quite literally comes from the pair being in one too many of them.

• hogsmeade/the three broomsticks - hara chose sebastian to visit hogsmeade with at the start of 5th year, that memory seared itself in her mind as it was one of their first hence why she smells it in the amortentia.

• wood - this is like the sort of scent a bat or a literal log has, it comes from the fact I like to imagine seb as one of the slytherin beaters.

• broom wax - sebastian is a little more appearance driven than hara so is frequently performing broom maintenance and applying the stuff to it

• early morning air - this is something they both smell and also due to quidditch! Thanks to their early morning training sessions with their respective teams.

• roasted chestnuts - (lore time yay!) After the end of 5th year, their relationship is a bit rocky and hara avoids sebastian, he feels guilty as a result and whilst brainstorming a way to get her to talk to him, he remembers her talking about how much she loved eating roasted chestnuts with her family whilst growing up. With this in mind, sebastian sets out to find some chestnuts and attempt to recreate them like the ones she has as a child. Some turn out a little bit burnt but the gesture really gets to her and begins the road of improvement in their relationship 😌

(I love the difference of how hara smells more memory orientated things whilst sebastian smells more literally physically present things, idk why but it just seems fitting)

Geez that looks like a lot-

ANYWAYS PROMPT 2:

Despite originally being a hufflepuff, hara has a lot of the traits from the other houses. That being said I think gryffindor would be the second choice as she's pretty headstrong and has the attitude for it 🦁

Prompt 3:

As I was a bit cut for time and didn't really fancy it, I didn't draw hara's gender bent. Instead, here is a drawing of her in her animagus (crow) form with sebastian (the things in this post are literally my first time drawing him, I have incredibly little practice drawing guys 😭). This would most likely be set in their late 6th or 7th year although I haven't completely settled on whether hara would go through with the animagus progress during or after hogwarts - she would at some point for certain.

#hogwarts legacy #hogwarts oc #hogwarts legacy mc #hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry #hogwarts #hogwarts legacy art #hufflepuff #griffindor #sebastian x mc #hogwarts legacy sebastian #animagus #amortentia #mctober2024 #sebastian sallow

Crucio Can Break a Heart - Ominis x Carina (OC)

NOTE: Author does not support transphobia or J. K. Rowling. I just love this game and it’s characters.

Carina sighed a bit as Sebastian shoved her towards Ominis.

“He likes you more than me at this point so why don’t you ask him?” Sebastian teased a bit as he poked her side.

“I don’t know Sebastian, I don’t want Ominis mad at me again…” Carina muttered a bit as she looked over at the Gaunt boy she had a crush on. “I don’t like when people yell and last time when Ominis yelled at me I was unnerved.”

“Bloody hell, Carina, just talk to him!” Sebastian huffed before pushing her towards where Ominis was.

“Who is it?” Ominis asked as he heard her footsteps approaching.

“Carina. I’m sorry to bother Ominis. I just wanted to apologize about before. Sebastian did bring me down to the undercroft but only for me to practice spells so I could catch up to the rest of the fifth-years.” Carina spoke gently, a slight nervousness was evident in her tone. “I dislike seeing you upset and I thought you might still be mad at me and-“

“I’m not mad, Carina.” Ominis’s eyebrows softened from their furrowed position. “I just didn’t expect you to be down there. With Sebastian.”

“Oh yay, I’m glad you aren’t mad at me!” Carina smiled as she gently grasped one of Ominis’s hands in her own, his fingertips tracing along her palm a bit. “I actually had something else to ask you about. Sebastian had told me about something in passing while speaking of Salazar Slytherin. Something about a scriptorium of sorts. Could you tell me about it?”

The scowl that appeared on Ominis’s face spoke volumes as he dropped Carina’s hand. He huffed at the Gryffindor girl and shook his head.

“Of course Sebastian told you. You two became incredibly close so fast.” Ominis sighed as he reached out a hand and gently grazed his fingertips over Carina’s arm. “The scriptorium… It belonged to Salazar Slytherin and Sebastian believes it is the key to curing Anne and I think it’s just a place full of Dark Magic that is better left untouched.”

“You’ve been in there?” Carina asked as she let Ominis’s hand trace the bumps of a few scars on her arm.

“Goodness no. I only know of it because of my favorite aunt Noctua. She was a lot like me; didn’t agree with the family’s stance on Dark Magic or the way they viewed Muggles and Muggle Born witches and wizards. She had hoped to show my family that there’s more to Salazar Slytherin than worshipping pure blood status. She found the scriptorium in an effort to find something to support her ideas. Sadly she lost her life in her pursuit of these hopes.”

“I’m sorry to hear that Ominis…” Carina said, taking his hand in hers and giving it a squeeze, noticing the sharp breath he took in when she did. “You’ve never been inside though?”

“Gods no! I wouldn’t dare. I want nothing to do with the Dark Arts and my aunt lost her life in pursuit of something that might not even exist. I don’t want anyone else hurting.” Ominis sighed as he gripped her hand tightly, thumb rubbing along her knuckles. “Thank you for the comfort though, Carina. You’re always so kind.”

“It’s not a problem, Ominis. You’re one of my best friends and I don’t like seeing you distraught.” Carina spoke gently before taking a deep breath. “But surely you’re curious about what’s going on inside? Maybe we could find some answers.”

“Aunt Noctua went down this path with good intentions and lost her life, I do not want that to happen again.” Ominis sighed. “Especially with you or Sebastian.”

“You don’t know that things would be the same. Together we could do it, I’m sure of it. Besides, you said your aunt thought like you; this could honor her memory. It could get you answers about Slytherin, and Sebastian answers for Anne. When your aunt did this, she was alone, but we have each other. We can do this together.”

“Carina I- You’ve got a way with words, I’ll give you that. You’ve convinced me somehow.” Ominis’s lips turned up at the corners in a smile. “It’s quite impressive actually. Get Sebastian and I’ll tell you everything.”

Carina smiled wide and pulled Ominis into a hug, resting her chin on his shoulder.

“Thank you, Ominis. I really appreciate this.” Carina whispered to him before kissing his cheek and rushing off to Sebastian.

Ominis smiled a bit as he placed a hand over the spot she just kissed. He chuckled and shook his head a bit as Carina dragged Sebastian over by his hand.

“Let me go, Carina! I can follow just fine.” Sebastian’s voice wavered a bit, cheeks red as he made no effort to pull his hand from Carina’s.

“If you wanted me to let go you’d let go of my hand.” Carina teased before sticking her tongue out at him.

“You- I- Knock it off!” Sebastian yanked his hand away with a furious blush on his face.

“Will you two please get serious? The entrance to the scriptorium has to do with the braziers. Do you see them?” Ominis asked before pacing a bit.

“I do. Let me take a look.” Carina said as she walked towards them, examining them. “Hold on.”

She walked around a corner and something clicked in her mind. She cast confringo a few times and then a door opened.

“I did it!” Carina smiled wide, a small giggle escaping her as she grabbed the two boys by the hands. “Come on!”

Excited, she pulled them with her into the passageway. She looked around as she heard hissing all around them, gripping Ominis’s arm now as the three entered.

“What is that noise?” Carina asked, looking around them as she had both arms wrapped around one of Ominis’s.

“Snakes. This room.” Ominis sighed a bit. “It’s parseltongue. I speak a bit myself but I dislike doing so.”

“Oh, I see. I know why.” Carina said as she let go of his arm, Ominis frowning at the loss of contact. “It’s okay, Ominis, speaking it doesn’t make you a bad person. You’re wonderful; incredibly so.”

“You- Really?” Ominis’s frown was replaced with a smile as he leaned towards where her voice came from. “You think that of me?”

“I do. Please, could you figure out how to open the door?” Carina looked up at Ominis and watched as his face grew slightly red, his lips thinned as he sighed.

“Okay. Stand back a bit.” Ominis put his hand out to move her back before speaking parseltongue.

Carina and Sebastian watched as the door opened and Carina jumped a bit as she clapped.

“That was amazing Ominis! You have such a rare ability and it sounds cool!” Carina said as she grabbed both of his hands.

“Thank you, Carina. I don’t see it that way but I’m glad you find it amazing.” Ominis smiled wider than either Sebastian or Carina have seen.

“Wow. Between the two of you I’m starting to feel left out.” Sebastian spoke in a slightly jealous tone, watching his two friends be so close.

“Between the two of us?” Ominis moved his head a bit, angling it towards where Sebastian was standing.

“I- Never mind.” Sebastian grumbled before going on ahead.

Carina sighed and shook her head before taking Ominis’s hand and leading him into the new area.

——————————————————

Carina picked up a note off the floor in the room, looking over it and her eyes widened.

“O-Ominis!” She walked over to him. “I found a skeleton and your aunts final journal entry… There’s a door but it’s blocked by an unforgivable curse.”

“This is where she died - where we’ll die. I shouldn’t have listened to either of you now we’ll all die down here!” Ominis paced and shouted angrily.

“Ominis, I’m sorry about your aunt and I’m sorry we’re stuck in this mess, but I know what we have to do.” Carina walked over to Ominis and grabbed his arm. “Cast crucio on me. It’s the only way.”

“What?!” Ominis shouted in shock as he yanked his arm back. “No! I would never- Do you realize what you’re asking me to do to you?!”

“I do. Please. I just want us all to be safe.” Carina spoke sadly, frowning as she stepped back a few paces. “We can’t die here. We won’t. I know this curse is hard for you; Sebastian told me what happened when you were younger-“

“Of course he did! He can’t keep his mouth shut!” Ominis was growing angrier by the second but Carina’s hands cupping his cheeks caused him to freeze and his features to soften.

“Ominis, please.” Carina sighed a bit before Sebastian walked over.

“I can do it. I’ll cast it on you or I can teach you and you can cast it on me.” Sebastian spoke sternly, eyebrows furrowed as he looked at the two. “I just want to get the hell out of here.”

“Okay. Thank you, Sebastian.” Carina smiled and turned to Ominis again, her thumbs gently caressing his cheeks. “Wish me luck.”

Carina leaned up and pressed a short kiss to Ominis’s cheek.

“Please be careful. I don’t want you dying on me.” Ominis spoke softly, placing a hand over hers before kissing her palm.

Carina smiled and walked over to Sebastian, the smirking boy nudging her arm a bit as he smirked.

“If you survive this you should ask him out.” He said before getting his wand out.

“Maybe I will.” Carina blushed a bit before taking a deep breath. “Okay, I’m ready. Cast it Sebastian.”

Sebastian waved his wand and cast crucio on Carina. Her screams echoed around the room as she doubled over in pain. Ominis put his hands over his ears and squeezed his eyes shut as his heart clenched at the sound of her cries. A few tears slipped down his cheeks at the sounds, Sebastian leaning towards Carina.

“Are you alright?!” Sebastian asked, reaching out before retracting his hand as Carina screamed louder.

She fell to the floor and writhed in pain as the curse kept on going. She was breathing heavy in between cries and screams of pain before it all stopped. She laid on the floor unmoving at Sebastian’s feet.

“Carina?” Ominis called out with no response.

“Carina!” Sebastian yelled out her name as he knelt beside her, shaking her a bit. “Wake up!”

“Sebastian what’s happening? Is Carina alright?!” Ominis took his wand out to make his way over to the two.

“She’s not moving. Ominis do you have a wiggenweld potion?” Sebastian asked, looking up at him.

“I do but can she take it?” Ominis fumbled with the potion before holding it tight. “Sebastian I swear if she dies I’ll-“

“I know! Stop it!” Sebastian exclaimed as he took the potion from Ominis. “I’m going to have to use my mouth to give her the potion.”

“No! You won’t do that to her.” Ominis reached towards Sebastian who pushed his hand back.

“And what else would we do? Let her die?!” Sebastian shouted before pouring the potion into his mouth and leaning down, placing his lips on hers and giving her the potion.

“I don’t see why I couldn’t have done it…” Ominis muttered before he grew concerned hearing Carina coughing.

“Ew, back off Sebastian.” Carina let out a weak laugh as she pushed on his face.

“You’re welcome.” Sebastian rolled his eyes as he stood up. “Sorry Ominis, I know you wanted to do it.”

Sebastian chuckled before going off to explore the scriptorium. Ominis reached down and felt around before his hand bumped against Carina’s arm.

“Ominis?” Carina moved her arm and Ominis grabbed her hand tightly, cupping her one hand in both of his before bringing her hand up.

“I’m sorry… I’m sorry I’m sorry…” Ominis muttered, voice sounding broken as he thought back to her screams filling his ears. “Your cries, your screams. They were so loud and I hated it. I hated it!”

“Ominis I’m sorry. I just wanted us to get out.” Carina spoke softly before her heart skipped a beat when Ominis pressed gentle kisses to her fingers and hand.

“I’m just happy you’re okay. I thought for a moment we lost you.” Ominis muttered, tears slipping down his cheeks now.

“Oh Ominis…” Carina moved her hand to cup his cheeks. “I’m sorry I worried you so much.”

“It’s okay, just don’t scare me like that again.” Ominis leaned forward, forehead pressing to hers.

“Ominis I want to go with you somewhere.” Carina spoke softly as she nuzzled her nose against his.

“I’d go anywhere with you at this point.” Ominis chuckled a bit, wiping his face before pressing his palm to her cheek. “You’re the amazing one between the two of us. So strong and brave, yet so stupid.”

“Well, I am a stupid Gryffindor, aren’t I?” Carina smirked before leaning up. “I’m going to kiss you now.”

“Please do.” Ominis leaned forward more as Carina’s lips brushed against his. “I love you so much I’m glad I finally have the drive to say it out loud.”

“I love you, too, Ominis.” Carina smiled as she pressed her lips to his, surprisingly soft but cold against her plump lips.

Carina wrapped her arms around his neck, gasping a bit as he wrapped his around her waist, pulling her tight to his chest. Carina let out a soft giggle against his lips and Ominis smiled into the kiss. Carina threaded her fingers in his hair.

“Wow. Maybe try not to do it in the scriptorium, yeah?” Sebastian smirked as he leaned in the doorway, arms crossed and a laugh escaping him as Ominis scowled.

“Oh shush Sebastian. I’m still upset you gave her the potion.” Ominis tilted his head up in Sebastian’s direction as Carina laughed, now seated in his lap.

“It’s okay. Another time then, Ominis.” Carina winked at Sebastian, causing both of the boys to turn red at the thoughts entering their minds.

“Gross. You two do that on your own time.” Sebastian made a face before Carina laughed a bit.

“Maybe next time.” Ominis muttered before letting his fingers run across Carina’s neck before letting his lips follow where his fingers were and pressing gentle kisses against the skin of her neck.

“Mhmm.” Carina hummed, leaning into him.

“You two are disgustingly cute.” Sebastian teased more, chuckling. “Only took a near death experience and a kiss from me to push you together.

“It wasn’t a kiss Sebastian, you just gave me a potion.” Carina huffed a bit, leaning her head against Ominis’s as he rested his chin on her shoulder.

“Sure It wasn’t.” Sebastian teased with a smirk.

“Oh then I guess I can just tell Sage you’re kissing other girls.” Carina smirked and laughed at the face Sebastian made.

“Hey now don’t tell her that I only did it to give you a potion.” Sebastian corrected at the mention of his crush and Ominis chuckled.

“That’s what I thought.” Carina smirked.

“Seriously, don’t tell Amon.” Sebastian spoke seriously before the three exited the scriptorium together.

Changed. || Marauders -06

A quick 3 min per chapter Marauders Era fanfic starring Faith Solace as reader × Sirius/Remus, and Minuet McGonagall (an OC of mine hehe)

Warnings: None :>

Words: 544

Minuet's POV

It felt like forever since she last saw her sister.

At least, as a sister of course.

Minerva had gone on a solitary vacation last summer. Minuet agreed it was well deserved and promised to take care of herself while she was gone.

But what she hadn't realised was how much she'd missed Minerva until she had to treat her like a teacher for 24 hours.

"Minnie…… You know you're not supposed to be here right?" Minerva said softly.

"I know…" she squeezed her tighter. "But I have a free period and I couldn't resist the urge to……"

"Say hi?"

"Y- you're not gonna scold me?"

"I'll let it pass this time," said Minerva, stroking Minuet's head. "But I have class in a minute so you can't stay here much longer."

"Aw… Not even to rub your ears?" she tried.

"Tempting, but not this time Minuet," Minerva laughed.

"Okay."

"Huh, where did you go? Severus asked if we wanted to hang out," said Lily.

"Well, I got nothing better to do so… Sure!" she replied softly but with excitement.

"Yay! Ah, there he is," Lily pulled Minuet towards him.

"Severus! You remember McGonagall right?" Lily said enthusiastically.

"Wait- but I thought you said he wanted to hang out with us?" Minuet questioned.

Lily smiled, "Of course he does."

"Hi…" Severus greeted shyly. The group picked a cosy corner in the courtyard to chill, study and chat.

"So I may have only just pieced this together but your name's McGonagall right Minuet?" Lily asked, eyes twinkling.

Something clicked in Severus' head too, the smile proved it.

"Uh, yes. Why?" Minuet answered.

Snape & Evans exchanged glances.

Severus spoke first, "So Professor McGonagall is your-"

"Mother?" Lily guessed.

Minuet cracked up, hard. "Nop~"

"But then, are yall family?" asked Severus.

"Mhm, she's my big sister."

The other two went "Oooo~"

"But shh," said Minuet. "I don't want people to know qwq… especially those bullies," she muttered.

"We won't tell a soul," Lily promised.

"But," Severus started to point out shyly, "It's obvious though…."

"Oooo, but they can't confirm it!" said Lily who was so full of energy today.

Minuet and Severus were the quiet ones in the group while Lily held them all together with her cheerful and caring positivity. But strangely, Lily was only like this around them; with others, she was just as quiet.

Severus was the guy to always get bullied, in and out of class. According to Lily, he even got bullied on the train here! :(

He said he assumed later would be the same because-

Slytherin had flying class with Gryffindor.

"Put your hand over your broom and say 'Up!'," Madam Hooch instructed, demonstrating how to properly mount a broom.

Minuet got it within the first few tries, along with a few other Gryffindors and Slytherins.

In the middle of class, Madam Hooch received an urgent owl.

"If I see one broom in the air when I get back, you're gonna get it from me," she threatened as she left, her yellow eyes glistening in the sunlight.

Lily and Minuet were discussing Quidditch when Severus yelled, "Hey! Give that back!!"

Sirius Black, one of the bullies, had cast Wingardium Leviosa on Severus' broom.

Minuet's instincts kicked in.

"Stop. Right. There," she hissed.

Hi!! Happy early birthday!!! Can I please get a DC comics or Harry Potter ship 🌲 ?

Likes: I'm huge nerd--straight up an astrophysics and math double major with a philosophy minor, because somehow that seemed like a good idea and they let me do it. My hobbies tend to switch around a lot though and I'm pretty active in quite a few clubs at college (literally ranging from rocketry to debate and student govt) so my sleep schedule is pretty much non-existent. Borderline surviving on caffiene alone at this point...oops.

I'm also really into music--technically a classically trained pianist but I'm more into rock and alt these days.

Dislikes: cooking. I just can't figure it out and I'm quite clumsy so it usually ends in disaster. I'm also not great with hot weather and the outdoors in general--yay allergies :). Not a huge fan of cheesy rom-coms and pop. Chocolate ig? That's just a weird one. No real reason.

Appearance: I'm fairly taller than average for a girl (5'9) and on the slightly heavier side. My hair never stays the same length/colour/style in general for too long because I get bored of it quite quickly. I do tend to switch things up with my style quite often, but I generally go between either really preppy or pretty grunge depending on my mood/schedule that day. I do have a weakness for graphic tees though--especially really nerdy ones or vintage band tees.

Other than that, all I can think to add is that I'm a slytherin and INTJ...yeah that's basically it.

Thanks!

(Sorry if it's a little long)

Why not both! 😊 First one I ship you with is Neville Longbottom!

He was a bit scared that you were a Slytherin but after awhile of getting to know you and being friends he soon learned that you were very kind and sweet wondering whether you were actually a Hufflepuff who sometimes disguised to hang out with slytherin until he learned that you were in the right house after being bullied by Draco

He soon had a special playlist on an iPod that you made for him full of many different rock,alternative,and punk songs that you loved always bobbing his head,tapping his fingers,and definitely dancing whenever he was by himself

He always loved whenever you got him graphic band t-shirts that you both loved and would always wear them in between wearing his uniform and to sleep especially when one of you would sneak into the other's room whenever either of you had nightmares or couldn't sleep and just wanted each other

He would always have you supplement different things from caffeine so you wouldn't have a headache or anything by making you tea,giving you milk,soda,and water,or even making different types of homemade fruit drinks that Luna would make

He always felt calm and happy whenever he got to hear you play the piano no matter what song was playing or what point he would start listening to from

Secondly I ship you with Jaime Reyes!

He would always sing in spanish to you whenever you couldn't sleep whether the two of you were in the cave or at each other's houses he would calmly sing until he felt you asleep against him

He always wore the band and rock shirts you got him whenever he was with you,out with his friends and the team,and sometimes around his family mostly his sister who didn't care about what type of music the bands made

He made sure to make you drink water,juice,or anything else in between all the caffeine consumption you'd do especially after long missions where you were exhausted but still needed energy to stay awake to fill out any type of report unless someone else did

He loved hearing you play the piano and would just zone out to you playing and would teach you spanish not only for you to speak to his family and him but also so you can sing in his native tongue which made him turn into jelly

He smiles real big every time you give him a playlist on his phone or an iPod full of many different grunge,rock,punk,and alternative music quite a bit of them in Spanish which made him fall in love with you all over again

Draco admits his feelings

Walking into the Slytherin common room I see my best friend Pansy Parkinson. I had just finished potions class and wanted to go over some notes with her to study for our upcoming O.W.L.S. “Hey Love” I smile and give my best friend a warm hug. “Hey honey” she smiles and hugs back. “Shall we start?” I ask her. After about an hour of looking over and practicing some potions, we decide to kick back and relax by the fire. It’s a bit late, so it’s just us in the common room. My favorite thing in the world...Or at least one of my favorite things. I turn to Pansy. “So, how are things going with Blaise?” I ask her, wondering how things are holding up with her boyfriend who is also a part of our friend group. For reference, our friend group consists of me, Emi Grindelwald, Pansy Parkinson, Blaise Zabini, who is Pansy’s lover, and Draco Malfoy. A.K.A the man that has had my heart since our first year. He just doesn’t seem to know it.... Pansy smiles “yea, we are doing good. He’s taking me on some surprise date for our anniversary” “Oooo you must tell me the details after” I giggle. She chuckles. “For sure...Soo anything new with Draco?” “How you always ask me this still baffles me. you know I don’t have the balls to tell him how I really feel. I don’t want to ruin our friendship” I say looking down. “He likes you Emi, everyone can see it except you” Pansy says. “You don’t know that Pans” I sigh. “well maybe nows your chance to find out” she says looking up to see Draco walking in the room. “See you in our dorm” she giggles and walks away “wait. don’t” I start but it is too late. She already walked down the stairs out of sight. “Hey Em, What are you doing out here so late” Draco asks sitting next to me. “I was studying with Pansy, but she left, now im just enjoying the peace and quiet” I say trying not to act nervous. “Yea, it is really nice when no one is here” he says in a soft sweet voice. Oh how I love him. “So Uhm- I-I have been meaning to tell you something” Draco said stuttering. Weird, I have never heard him stuttering before. He was always so confident. “sure, what’s up? are you okay?” I ask, concerned. “yea- I'm just gonna go out and say it” he takes a deep breath “I love you... as more than a friend. I think I have since our first year, It just took me a bit to realize. I was too scared to tell you because I was scared to ruin our friendship, but I just can’t hold it in any longer. I Draco Lucius Malfoy am in love with you Emi Aphrodite Grindelwald” He bursts out. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. Draco, the boy I had been madly in love with since I first laid my eyes on him has just admitted his feelings towards me. I didn’t know what to say. I just sat there with wide eyes. “Please say something, anything” Draco says in a worried tone. I pull myself out of whatever shock I am currently in. “I’m sorry, I'm just in shock... Draco I feel the same way. I always have, since the day we meet.” I say still in complete shock from what he just admitted to me. My stomach in knots. This boy had full control over me at this point. Draco lets out a sigh of relief. “So, will you be mine?” he asks, still sounding a bit nervous. I smile. “Yes. yes of course” I say, more excited than I expected. He smiled a big smile. probably the biggest I have ever seen him smile. He then pulls me in and kisses my lips. Oh how I have longed for this. His lips feel even better than Imagined. so soft and gentle yet very masculine for his age. I felt if I could never get enough of it. suddenly we hear a few snickers and a “it's about damn time” coming from the corner. we turn around to see none other than Blaise and Pansy looking at us with huge stupid grins on their faces. “were you guys spying on us?” I ask letting out a laugh. “Well duh. we had to make sure you and Draco finally admitted your feelings for each other. it was getting exhausting watching you too secretly love each other” Blaise said as if it was obvious. “Yay, now we can go on double dates” Pansy said excitedly

JAY PARK ; 박종성

requested : no

genre : fluff + crack (?)

pairing : ravenclaw!jay x slytherin!reader , jay has soft spot for reader

warnings : vulgar language

“C’mon, it’ll be fun!” Jake pleaded to the blonde that sat in front of you two.

Jay stares back at you both unamused. Park Jay was not one to attend parties, for he didn’t have much experience with the “popular” crowd at all. You and Jake, on the other hand, were well liked by everyone, so you always had the chance to go to (secret) parties, unlike himself.

Jake sighed. This wasn’t going to be easy unless you were involved. “You know, you really need to loosen up.” Jake continued, now murmuring. “Hag.”

You stifled a laugh while Jay glared at Jake. Jay gave you a pointed look, his unamused expression not fading at all.

“I said, ‘no’, Jake.” Jay sighed. “Did you not hear me at all?”

A small silence settled itself on you all as Jake turned to look at you, signaling silently with his eyes for you to try and “work the magic”.

Glancing back at Jay from your previous glance at Jake, you decided to try. “Jay... please?”

Jay pinched his nose bridge while letting out an extremely over-exaggerated sigh. He then gave a look to you, glanced at Jake, looked back at you, before ultimately returning his eyes to Jake, who wore a knowing smile.

“Fine.”

Your eyes widened before you let out an excited gasp. “Wait, really? Yay! I’ll let Heeseung know you’re coming!” You happily exclaimed before skipping out of the Ravenclaw common room to return to the Slytherin common room, where your prefect, Heeseung, resided.

As soon as he was sure you left, Jay looked at Jake dead in the eye and said, “Fuck you, by the way.”

Jake chuckled before resting his hand on Jay’s shoulder closest to him. “You wish, weirdo.” And with that, Jake started walking to the Ravenclaw common room’s door to exit.

“You’re weird, Jake.” Jay laughed.

“9 o’clock, Friday at the Slytherin common room, don’t miss it!” Jake called to the empty common room (albeit Jay being in there), before leaving to return to the Slytherin common room.

a/n : first proper writing post + first post in about a week… why am i lowkey shitting my pants posting this.

In the Prefect’s Bathroom Part 4 // Draco Malfoy

A/N: Guys!!! It's the FINAL part, yay!! I'm super proud of this and I think it's super cute and just AAHH I really hope y'all like it. Lemme know what you think of it and if you expected any of it. Thank you so much for reading, and Happy Thanksgiving (if you celebrate it)

Summary: Draco has been trying to get Y/N to talk to him since he confessed, but he hasn't had any luck. Until, he finds something she left in his dorm.

Warning(s): SMUT! Unprotected sex, lots of fluff, swearing, angst

Word Count: 5k

Masterlist & Taglist

Part 1 Part 2 Part 3

Three weeks had gone by, and now Draco was on his bed, toying with the idea of giving up. Y/N had been avoiding him ever since that day he confessed. No matter how hard he tried to get her to warm back up to him, she kept her distance. He had tried everything. He'd sit next to her in class; she'd move seats. He'd wait outside the Gryffindor tower; she'd strut right past him. It seemed as nothing was working, so of course, he was getting a bit discouraged.

Just a couple days ago, the two of them had been in Charms class, and on his way out, Draco noticed that Y/N had dropped her book. This is my chance, he thought to himself. He quickly bent down to pick it up since he assumed she would've been already halfway down the corridor by the time he got back up. But when he arose from the floor, she was standing right in front of him. His heart pounded in his chest. Draco knew he had to stall for time, try and get her defenses to weaken. He turned the book over in his hands. "The Tales of Beedle and Bard," he read aloud. Y/N blushed and averted her eyes. He opened the cover and read the first few lines to himself.

There was once a kindly old wizard who used his magic generously and wisely for the benefit of his neighbours. Rather than reveal the true source of his power, he pretended that his potions, charms and antidotes sprang ready-made from the little cauldron he called his lucky cooking pot.

Draco shut the book and said, "I've actually never read them. My father didn't permit me to. Said it was written by a muggle lover. Supposedly he filed an official request to remove it from Hogwarts's shelves." Draco chuckled as he ran his finger along the spine of the light blue book. But his laughter died when he glanced up at Y/N. She looked rather upset, causing Draco to panic and quickly backtrack. "That isn't to say I don't want to read them now. I mean, I'm sure they're not as bad as Father thought they were," he sputtered. Y/N remained silent. "Perhaps... we could read them together, maybe?" he asked hopefully. He knew it was a shot in the dark, but he did it anyway. Draco hadn't heard Y/N's voice in weeks, and it was making him grow desperate.

Softly, she reached out her hand, and Draco held his breath. But then her fingers grasped the book, and the Slytherin felt his heart shatter. He cleared his throat, trying to push away the lump that had formed in it. His grip loosened, and Y/N pulled her book towards her chest. She didn't even look at him before she turned around and rushed down the hallway, leaving Draco feeling stranded, hopeless, and, quite frankly, stupid for even trying.

Since then, he hadn't put in nearly as much effort into rekindling their friendship. It was painfully obvious Y/N wanted nothing more to do with him, and as much as it hurt, Draco had to accept that. But that didn't stop his thoughts. It couldn't. Every night, he would lay awake, worrying. Worrying about Y/N's wellbeing. Was she happy? Did she make any new friends?

Did she still feel alone?

Draco didn't know. From the little he'd seen of her, he assumed she was alright. He hoped she was. But he had no real way of knowing. He had tried reaching out to her roommate multiple times, but all Stephanie would tell him was that she thought Y/N seemed fine, just a bit quiet. That answer never sat well with him. During those few weeks, before he confessed, he had learned so much about Y/N. One of those things being that she was not quiet. She had talked his ear off many times, telling him funny stories from her childhood. Like how, after one of their study sessions, she told him about the time she had made her pet fish turn yellow just by looking at it. Draco remembered that day clearly.

"My mum was terrified! One moment my fish was blue and the next he was yellow! I mean, imagine that." Y/N laughed. Draco shook his head in disbelief. "Sounds like you were quite the little mischief-maker," he replied as he twirled his wand between his fingers, it was becoming a bit of a habit. Y/N continued giggling, kicking her legs as she did so. "You should've seen the look on my dad's face when he got home. That was the day he sat her and me down and told us he was a wizard. My poor mum. She had no idea."

Draco sat up in shock. "Wait, wait, you're a half-blood?" he asked, eyes wide. Y/N cocked an eyebrow. "Is that a problem, Malfoy?" she questioned as she began to sit up. Her tone was somewhat threatening. Draco raised his hands to show his lack of ill intention. "No, no. I was just surprised," he quickly explained. Y/N chuckled and waved her hand towards him. "Relax, I'm only playing with you," she assured him. Her words piqued Draco's interest. He wiggled his eyebrows and licked his lips, staring suggestively into her eyes. "Well, I'd sure like to play with you," he husked. Y/N gasped loudly and swiftly removed the pillow from behind her back and chucked it at the blonde boy sitting across from her. "Draco!" she screeched. "Joking!" he mumbled. "Just joking...unless."

Y/N crossed her arms, and obnoxiously shook her head while clicking her tongue disapprovingly. Draco snickered before throwing the pillow back at her, making her giggle. His heart skipped a beat as he watched her eyes twinkle. She looked unreal to Draco, ethereal almost. However, he was torn from his trance by her continuing the story. "Anyways, as I was saying, my lovely mum had the shock of her life. I was surprised as well. I mean, I had just found out I was a bloody witch. Although I was much more delighted than she was. Come to think of it, she might've cried," Y/N said with a small frown. "Wow..." Draco muttered. "But what does she think of it now? What with you being at Hogwarts and all."

Y/N hummed to herself, recalling that last time she and her mother spoke about Hogwarts. "Well, I think she thinks it's a bit surreal, you know? She always imagined I'd graduate and go off to university to become a doctor or something, but here I am at a school for wizards and witches," she said while gesturing to the castle walls around her. Draco nodded although he was a bit confused. "She just doesn't understand, right?" he asked. Y/N pursed her lips. "I think she will, with time. Maybe I can introduce her to you and your family. Now that would be really fun," she suggested with a mischievous glint in her eye. Draco furrowed his eyebrows. "And why is that?" he questioned, staring at the giggling girl. "Just imagine me introducing you. I'd say, hey mum, this is my best friend and his wizard parents who dress like they're going to a funeral every single day. Oh, and they also own a mansion in the countryside because they're rolling in galleons!" Y/N bellowed, nearly falling over as she clutched her stomach, erupting in laughter.

Draco would've berated her for the slander towards his parents, but his mind was fixated on three words, "My best friend." He waited until Y/N ceased laughing before asking her, "I'm your best friend?" She looked at him as if he had grown a second head. "Well, duh, you're my only friend, Draco." The Slytherin did his best to hide his blush as he looked to the floor. "You're mine too," he mumbled. But Y/N didn't hear.

Draco sighed as he sat on his bed. He missed her. He wished so badly that she'd walk through his door. But she wouldn't, and he knew that. Slowly, he pushed himself off the green covered mattress and walked over to his wooden desk. A piece of parchment was already on top of it, so he took a seat, and he reached for his ink bottle and quill. His nimble fingers unscrewed the cap, and he dipped the point inside it, drenching it in black liquid. He'd written letters to Y/N many times, but every time he finished one, he'd get scared and chuck it into the bin. Draco knew he'd probably do the same tonight, but he wanted to try. So he pressed his quill to the paper and began.

"Dear Y/N, I hope you are doing well. I'm writing to you to give you my apologies. I should've known better than to confess my feelings for you at such a time. I really hope..." he stilled his hand, not knowing what to say next. His head was reeling as different thoughts and feelings flooded his brain, none of which he knew how to convey in words. She made him so dizzy. But, ever persistent, Draco started again.

"Dear Y/N, Are you doing well? I truly hope that you are. I write to you to tell you that I'm sorry for everything. I said and did so many foolish things that day, and if I could take all of them back, I swear, I would. I know I must've frightened you that day, but Y/N, I fear you don't know how much I miss you. I've never felt this empty before. But I know it's because you're not here. I need you..." Draco, in his frustrated haze, crossed out the last line and crumbled the parchment in his fist. He then tossed it across the room, watching as it hit the wall next to his door, and bounced on the foot of his brass coat rack. He stared at it, thinking about donning his coat and taking a walk around campus. But then, he noticed something underneath. He jumped to his feet and rushed over to the rack. Curious, he lifted his black coat off the hook to reveal a brown cardigan underneath. His chest tightened; it was Y/N's. She must've left it in his room after one of their study sessions. Come to think of it, it was probably from the night before Draco confessed.

Hesitantly, the boy reached out and touched his fingers to the cardigan. It was soft. He lifted it up and held it in his hands, letting his emotions settle. Then, he brought it to his nose, breathing in deeply. It still smelled of her: apples, hazelnut, and cinnamon. Draco felt tears begin to gather in his eyes, but he hastily blinked them away. With care, he hung the cardigan back up and retreated to his desk. He got seated, pulled out a new sheet of parchment, and began writing for the third time that night.

------------

Dear Y/N,

I hope this letter finds you well. I'm writing to you to inform you that I've discovered your cardigan in my room. The brown one that is. I suppose you left it after our last study session. I can return it to you tomorrow morning at breakfast, or if you'd prefer, you can fetch it tonight. The current password to the Slytherin common room is Jobberknoll. Hopefully, you remember where my bedroom is, but should you have forgotten, it's at the very top of the stairway on your left. Please knock three times before entering.

There's no need to send an owl with your reply. Just make sure to come before 9:30. If you don't, I'll assume you wish to receive the cardigan at breakfast, in which case, I shall wait for you by the door.

Draco

Y/N clutched the parchment tightly in her hands. She had been scared half to death when an owl landed right beside her while she was sitting by the open windows. But now, she was more afraid of getting her cardigan back. She glanced around her room frantically, as if she'd find an answer to her dilemma upon the walls. Her eyes then drifted back to the parchment in her hands. She looked at where Draco had signed his name. Above it was a dark scribble as if he had scratched something out. What did he write there? It was probably just 'sincerely,' but what if it was something else. What if it was 'with love'? Y/N wondered. She closed her eyes; she needed to calm down. There was no way she'd be able to make a rational decision with such thoughts running through her brain.

But Y/N had nobody to consult, nobody to refer to. Ever since she'd pushed Draco away that day, she'd been alone. Her roommate spoke to her on occasion, but only about school-related things. Almost the entirety of her house had shunned her. And the whole school knew what she did, so making friends had proven to be difficult. But because of this, Y/N had been able to do a lot of thinking. Truthfully, she missed Draco. She hated herself for rejecting him that day. She hated herself because she liked him. The only reason she had rejected him was that she knew she wasn't ready for another relationship. And on top of that, she didn't think she deserved one. Draco wasn't someone she deserved, not in her mind.

But here she was, being forced to make a decision. Should she just wait until tomorrow, or should she go to his room? Her brain was telling her to wait until tomorrow; that way, she could take the cardigan, thank him, and be on her merry way. But her heart screamed at her to go to him. Go to him, confess to him, bring him back into her life. Y/N glanced at the clock; it was nearly nine. "Fuck," she muttered before pushing off the window seat; her loneliness had gotten the best of her.

She rushed towards her closet and flung the doors open. Her eyes scanned the array of clothing for a few moments before she pulled out her favorite pair of light grey sweatpants along with her pale green crewneck. She threw them on and tucked her wand into her pocket. Then she checked herself in the mirror. Her hair was already pulled back, and she had light mascara on. It was good enough, in her opinion, so she slipped on her shoes and turned her doorknob with a shaky hand.

--------

Draco was sitting in his armchair with a blue book in his hands when he heard three distinct knocks at his door. His breathing began to hasten; surely, it couldn't be... Only one way to find out. "Come in!" he called. The door swung open to reveal Y/N. She looked nervous as all hell but nevertheless, stepped inside his room and closed the door behind her. Neither of them said anything. They simply stared at one another. But luckily, Draco came to his senses. "Right, your cardigan," he said as he dropped his book and stood up. He grabbed the cardigan off the back of his chair and walked over to her, holding out the garment. "Here you are." Y/N took it into her hands and examined it. "Thank you, I thought it was lost forever," she told him with a smile. Draco faltered for a moment. He'd forgotten how sweet her voice was. But then he nodded, and the awkward silence returned. It hung in the air for a few moments before it was broken by the two of them simultaneously blurting out, "I'm sorry."

"No, I'm sorry, Y/N," Draco insisted while shifting his eyes to the floor. "I acted like a fool that day a-and I frightened you, and I made you so overwhelmed. I should've known better, and I am so sorry...I've missed you so much," he said, whispering his last few words. Eventually, he found the courage to look up, and when he did, he saw that Y/N was crying. His heart clenched, and he felt regret pool in his gut. But before he could apologize again, Y/N spoke up.

"I've missed you too, Draco. And I'm not sorry I rejected you that day, I'm sorry that I kicked you out of my life. I thought I was protecting myself because I just knew I would've gone back on my decision if I had let you stay. I liked you too, I still do, but I just wasn't ready. You're too good to be true. I don't deserve a second chance; I don't deserve you. But you didn't deserve to be shut out, and I really hope you can forgive—"

Y/N was cut off by Draco smashing his lips against hers. He held her face in his hands as she gasped, allowing him to sneak his tongue out and run it along her lower lip. She moaned into his mouth as he started to nibble. His hands traveled downwards until they settled on her hips. He pulled her closer and groaned when his hips touched hers. God, how he had missed this. Then, Y/N reached up and ran her hands through his hair, successfully messing it up. Draco knew he wanted more but pulled away from her lips. She breathed heavily and looked into his eyes, puzzled as to why he stopped.

"You're mine...right?" Draco asked anxiously. Y/N smiled and pulled him close for another soft kiss. "I'm yours," she whispered. Draco kissed her again, and she eagerly returned it. Hesitantly, Draco sneaked his hand underneath her shirt, merely letting it sit there against her hot skin as he slipped his tongue into her mouth again. Then, he began to slide his hand up her torso, all while paying attention to her reactions. She seemed to be kissing him harder as he gently ran his thumb along the underside of her breast. He took that as a sign he was doing good, so he placed his hand on top of it and squeezed. Y/N let out a loud moan and pulled away from the kiss. "Draco, please," she whined. He snickered as he studied her pleading face. "What do you need, princess?" he asked in a sultry voice. Y/N squirmed and continued to whine. Draco clicked his tongue. "Always so scared to tell me what you want. There's no need to be embarrassed. I'll give you whatever you want. I just need you to tell me," he reminded her gently. She bit her lip and stared at the floor before finally answering.

"I wanna have sex with you," she whispered. Her face was crimson. Draco felt his heart squeeze; she was too cute. He put his hand underneath her chin and tilted it upwards. A gentle kiss was planted on her lips. "I wanna have sex with you too, darling," he murmured. Y/N couldn't hide her smile as she swiftly took his hand and led him to the bed. Draco smirked and, with sneaky hands, pushed her onto the bed, making her squeal. "Draco!" she yelled with her back now pressed against the mattress. The Slytherin wasted no time; he jumped on top of her while mimicking a roar, causing Y/N to burst into laughter. Her laugh was music to his ears.

Draco tugged her shirt up and off her body, throwing it to the floor. His hands immediately traveled to her back where he unclasped her bra, throwing that away too. Draco felt his dick twitch in his pants upon seeing her nipples harden in the cold air. He leaned down and latched his lips onto one of them while twisting the other between his fingers. Y/N's gasp sent a shiver down his spine, and he sucked her even harder.

"Draco..." she moaned. Draco let go of her tits and sat up, admiring her flushed face. Then Y/N suddenly sat up and grasped the bottom of his shirt and proceeded to yank it off him. Draco only watched as she did this. Her hands then traveled to his pants. She unzipped him and pushed his waistband down, exposing his briefs. He helped her out by maneuvering himself off his knees so that he could kick his pants off.

Once the pants joined the rest of the clothes, Y/N reached for the top of his underwear. But before she could go any further, Draco stopped her. She looked at him, confused as to why he wouldn't want her to touch him. "Tonight is about you, darling. Lie back for me now," Draco instructed. Y/N's face turned red, but she did as she was told and lowered her body onto the bed. Draco's hands grasped her pants, and he slowly pulled them down, stopping to press kisses to her thighs as he went. They were both in only their underwear now, and he could see Y/N was getting impatient. "Speak princess, what do you want?" Draco asked. Y/N pressed her thighs together and rolled her hips a bit before she spoke. "Finger me, please," she begged. Draco smiled at her and immediately pressed his fingers to her pussy, still covered by her panties.

"So polite," he purred as he gently rubbed her clit through her underwear. She closed her eyes and hummed in pleasure. "That feel good, princess?" Draco asked. Y/N nodded and opened her mouth to reply, but a long moan quickly replaced the words on her tongue as Draco applied more pressure to her nub. He continued to swirl his finger around it for a couple minutes, then he slid a different finger past her panties and slowly pushed it inside, feeling her thighs clench as he did so. "So tight," he mumbled before leaning down and giving her a sweet kiss. The intrusion of another finger caused her to gasp into his mouth. Draco groaned and pressed down on her clit, making her hips jump.

"Did you miss this? Did you miss my fingers inside you and my kisses on your body?" he questioned as he thrusted into her. Y/N clenched her walls around his digits and nodded eagerly. "So much. So fucking much," she mewled. Draco added another finger and increased his pace. He noticed Y/N's breathing beginning to get quicker, and he knew she was close. So he finger-fucked her hole for a minute more before withdrawing his hand. Y/N cried out in frustration and glared at him angrily. "Why did you do that?" she whined.

But then, without warning, Draco lifted up her shirt and pressed his lips to her soft stomach, blowing a raspberry onto it. Y/N instantly screamed and wiggled violently underneath him. "STOP, STOP!" she shrieked, trying to get away as her giggles became uncontrollable. Eventually, Draco took mercy on her and ceased his torment. He leaned up to see Y/N was out of breath, and her hair was a mess. "Quit playing games and put your dick inside me, you twat," she ordered. Draco's eyebrows shot up in surprise. "If you say so," he muttered, taking his cock out of his underwear. Y/N's eyes widened, but before she could say or do anything, Draco slid all the way inside her, burying his dick in her pussy. "Ohhh, fuck," she moaned. Draco grunted as he adjusted to the tightness of her hole. He had the instinct to begin slamming into her, but he controlled his urges and allowed her body to adapt to him as he positioned his hands next to her head.

Y/N's walls clenched around him, and she bucked her hips. "Move, please," she pleaded softly. "As you wish," Draco said as he slowly pulled himself out and thrusted back in, setting a slow but consistent pace. Y/N let out quiet mewls as he moved in and out. Her legs found their way to his waist, and they quickly wrapped around it. This pulled him closer and forced his dick deeper inside her. "Fuck," Draco moaned as he leaned down for a kiss while continuing to thrust. Y/N hummed into his mouth and flicked her tongue against his. "Shit, you feel so good," she purred. Draco's cock twitched at her words, and he increased his pace. A harsh grunt escaped him as Y/N reached up and dug her nails into his back. "You're so gorgeous, Y/N," he breathed. "So goddamn gorgeous."

Suddenly, Draco's sensual thrusts were halted by Y/N calling his name. "Yes, darling?" he replied. "You can be rough, I don't mind," she told him gently. Draco smiled down at her and pressed quick kisses along her jaw. "I know, but I can do that another night. Right now," he angled his head so that his lips were by her ear, "I'm making love to you," he whispered, feeling her shudder beneath him.

Y/N's eyes grew soft, and she moved her hands to his face. "You're perfect," she mumbled before pulling his lips to hers, where they shared a passionate kiss. "So perfect." Draco started to thrust again, resuming his slower pace. The force of his cock rocked the couple back and forth on the plush pillows. But then, he had an idea.

He moved his hands from their spot beside Y/N's head, slid them underneath her back, and lifted her up. "Shit," she cursed as she was now on Draco's lap, his dick still buried deep inside her. Slowly, Draco raised her off him and turned her around so that her back was facing him. He then repositioned her hips above his cock and gently lowered her onto it. "Ohhh," she moaned as she once again became full. She was about to lift herself up and fuck herself on his dick, but Draco's hands stopped her. He pushed her legs wide and placed his hand over her pussy. This didn't please Y/N. She started to squirm and buck her hips forward, causing Draco to groan as she stimulated his cock. "Stay still, princess. I'll take care of you," he assured her. His fingers pressed against her heat and slowly spread the upper lips, exposing her clit. With his other hand, he touched his fingers to her nub and slowly began to circle it. Y/N's head fell back onto his shoulder, and a long, deep groan escaped her throat.

"Oh my god," she whimpered as her breathing became ragged. Draco's hands never stopped or stuttered, not even when Y/N's walls squeezed him tight. He just kept rubbing and rubbing; her soft pants sounded like heaven to him. Suddenly, Y/N's thighs began to tense. "Draco, fuck, I'm close," she muttered. Draco turned his head and once again hovered his lips next to her ear. "Cum on me. Cum with me buried inside you," he ordered. Y/N gasped and rolled her head on his shoulder. He could tell she was almost there. "Oh, god. Fuck, fuck, fuck, just a little more," she begged.

Draco kept circling her clit until finally, she inhaled sharply, and her walls clenched him hard. His finger didn't stop; it continued to rub her throughout her high. It only ceased when Draco felt her body jolt from overstimulation. He then pushed her forward onto her hands and knees and began pounding into her, chasing his own climax. The sounds of skin slapping combined with the tightness of Y/N's pussy lit a fire in Draco's abdomen, and soon, he was pushed over the edge. "Cumming," he warned her before he released inside Y/N with a deep groan. The couple remained in that position for a good minute, breathing heavily. Then Draco pulled himself out and laughed as Y/N immediately collapsed face-first onto his bed. He gently flipped her over and kissed her cheek. "You alright, darling?" he asked. She smiled and turned to him. Then, without thinking, she blurted, "I think I love you." Immediately, Y/N slapped her hand over her mouth. But Draco only grinned and said, "I love you too, Y/N."

She lowered her hand and averted her eyes as blush filled her cheeks. "Draco, are we..." she trailed off, looking apprehensive. "Boyfriend and girlfriend?" he asked. Y/N nodded. "I'd love to be your boyfriend, darling," he said sweetly. In less than a second, Draco was attacked by a forceful hug from Y/N. He wrapped his arms around her still naked body and held her close, breathing in her scent: apples, hazelnut, and cinnamon.

"Thank you for not giving up on me," she said softly. "I don't know what I would've done with myself if you had just stopped caring one day," Y/N confessed. Draco gently pulled away from the hug and cradled his girlfriend's face in his hands. "I never would've stopped caring. Y/N you were all I thought about," he assured her. He watched as her tears began to fall from her eyes. "Don't cry, sweetheart, I'm here now; I've got you. There's no need to cry," he said sweetly, trying to comfort her. But Y/N kept on crying, so he dragged a blanket over his lap and pulled her on top of it. "Look at me, darling," he instructed lightly. She rubbed her tears away with her arm and looked into Draco's eyes.

"I love you. I love you so much. Do not waste your tears on the mistakes of the past. All that matters is that I've got you, and you've got me. Alright?" Y/N continued to wipe her tears and nodded. "Alright. I love you too," she replied.

Draco pressed a quick kiss to her forehead, slid her off his lap, and stood up from the bed. He grabbed some tissues and cleaned himself off before doing the same for Y/N. Then he pulled on his underwear and tossed Y/N hers. As she was getting dressed, Draco strode over to his armchair. In the seat of it sat a small blue book. He picked it up and took it with him as he went back to bed. Y/N was already under the covers; she looked at him quizzically when she noticed the object in his hand. Her mouth opened to speak, but Draco quickly shushed her. He slid under the covers and cozied up next to Y/N. Then, he cracked open the book, cleared his throat, and began to read.

"There was once a kindly old wizard who used his magic generously and wisely for the benefit of his neighbours. Rather than reveal the true source of his power, he pretended that his potions, charms and antidotes sprang ready-made from the little cauldron he called his lucky cooking pot."
