💞 [FIC] Golden Script by Herochick007 | @herochicklyrrie007 💞 (T, Ginny/Narcissa, 3k)
Narcissa hates the name on her wrist, Ginny Weasley. Ginny is nowhere to be found, so she lives her life without her, but then, Ginny finally appears.
Hermione/Pansy
💞 [FIC] Only In Dreams Do I Wake by lumosatnight | @lumosatnight💞 (T, Pansy/Hermione, 1.5k)
Pansy dreams in flowers. She wakes to the feeling of leaves in her hair and twigs between her toes. It never lingers.
Lily/Narcissa
💞 [FIC] i will love you even if the oceans turn to sawdust and the trees fall in the forest without anyone around to hear them by chipsnkayso💞 (E, Narcissa/Lily, 60k)
Anything your soulmate draws on their skin appears on your skin. And the universe has a really fucked up definition of “drawing.” The story follows Lily from childhood to early adulthood.
Minerva/Poppy
💞 [FIC] Of Kittens and Serpents by Trueliarose | @trueliarose 💞 (T, Minerva/Poppy, 6.2k)
Navigating a relationship as teachers can be taxing, more so if one of your students is Harry Potter.
Remus/Sirius (as women)
💞 [FIC] Betrothal, Brothers, and Bullshit by tofeycat | @aspiring-artist-em💞 (E, femslash!Sirius/Remus, 3.6k)
Lesbian Wolfstar. Remus never went to Hogwarts, and she’s getting rather paranoid about the Grim that keeps following her everywhere.
M/F
Draco/Hermione
💞 [FIC] The Punch That Made a Mark by Tardis_Magic93 | @tardis-magic93 💞 (T, Draco/Hermione, 1.2k)
His Godfather’s eyes went wide with shock as if he noticed the soulmate mark right on his nose where Granger punched him.
“Who is your soulmate?”
Draco gulped nervously at his Godfather. He took too long to answer because his Godfather held his shoulders and shook him.
“Speak, boy!”
“Granger,” Draco mumbled.
“Can you please speak louder, Draco,” his Godfather sighed. “Granger! Okay?” Draco sighed looking at his Godfather frantically.
💞 [FIC] Dizzy Edge of Heaven by Wanderingfair 💞 (E, Draco/Hermione, 9.8k)
Draco has just been traded from the Bulgarian National team to the Wimbourne Wasps. When moving into his new flat he hears his neighbor singing The Cure’s Just Like Heaven, and is immediately hit with a vision (or version) of their life together. He doesn’t believe in Divination, and has obviously been hit with one too many bludgers. The more time he spends around his new neighbor, the more he wants it to be true.
OR
The canon divergent telling of Draco Malfoy, a former Durmstran student, current Quidditch star, meeting Hermione Granger for the first time and being instantly unsure if he’s just incredibly smitten or he’s possibly found his soulmate.
Draco/Luna
💞 [FIC] something’s changed by scattermeamongthestars | @scattermeamongthestars💞 (E, Draco/Luna, 6.8k)
“I want to join the Order,” he repeated. His heart was beating so fast, so hard, he felt like his chest was going to burst. It hurt to breathe.
A wise move. He’ll find his soulmate there.
Harry/Pansy
💞 [FIC] Ink Stained Skin by swoonbaby | @swoonbby 💞 (M, Harry/Pansy, 19.8k)
Pansy Parkinson went all the way to California to hide from her past and was pleased to find her escape a rousing success. At least it had been until a freak accident involving a spilled bottle of ink erased all her progress and sent her past (or possibly her future) careening back into her path.
Hermione/Severus
💞 [FIC] Small Silver Linings by dolor_dolores | @dolor-dolores💞 (T, Severus/Hermione, 33k)
Three touches – that’s what it takes to activate an ancient Merfolk binding magic, long forgotten in the wizarding world, and only applied to humans under rare circumstances. When Hermione Granger gets marked by the queen of the Merpeople during the Triwizard Tournament, she doesn’t know that she is bestowed with the ability to recognize her soulmate. Quite unfortunate so, Severus Snape would rather pretend to be dead than face is insufferable soulmate. However, he had made the calculations without Hermione, who is not so easily discouraged.
Katie/Marcus
💞 [FIC] Shatter Your Illusions of Love by liiilyevans | @liiilyevans 💞 (T, Katie/Marcus, 3k)
Katie Bell is Healer at St. Mungo’s. She deals with difficult patients all the time. Just usually not ones who have saved her life before.
Luna/Theo
💞 [FIC] In His Love Story by Halliwell19 | 💞 (E, Luna/Theo, 12.3k)
Set in magical regency England, Lord Theodore Nott is in want of a wife, except he doesn’t believe he will find a witch he could call his soulmate… until Lady Luna Lovegood made the Queen laugh.
Narcissa/Remus
💞 [FIC] Sheltered in Black Wings by Caiti | @caiti-creative-corner💞 (T, Narcissa/Remus, 2.4k)
Sometimes Narcissa wondered what her life might have been like without the bonds she held. And sometimes she had nightmares about the same. She would do whatever it took to protect her family and her people.
Neville/Pansy
💞 [FIC] Lover’s Leap by DrPansyParkinson💞 (E, Pansy/Neville, 13.5k)
The Wizarding World is small and insular—Pansy Parkinson and Neville Longbottom have known each other since they were children. But after Pansy’s Grandmother dies, a magical heirloom forces them to see each other in a new light.
💞 [FIC] Beyond the Garden’s Gate by MarinaJune | @sailtomarina 💞 (M, Neville/Pansy, 29.6k)
Sir Neville Longbottom is the unlikely hero of a gallant quest to slay the Evil Serpent Nagini and return Lady Pansy Parkinson to her fiancé, Prince Draco Malfoy. Except this lady doesn’t appreciate being rescued, nor does she want to go on a journey back to the kingdom–and that’s before they discover they might be each other’s soul mates along the way.
Pansy/Sirius
💞 [FIC] Incendio by UltramarineOrchid | @ultramarineorchid💞(M, Sirius/Pansy, 16.2k)
Sirius Black has spent his entire adult life running away from two things: his soulmate, and spoiled pureblood witches. When Pansy Parkinson enters his life, what could possibly go wrong?
M/M
Albus/Gellert
💞 [FIC] souls and marks by prima_vera | @girl-with-goats 💞 (T, Albus/Gellert, 1.1k)
A new parlour opens near the Diagon Alley, offering to reveal the soulmarks. Everyone is, naturally, curious, and clients start coming over, while the owner, one infamous Gellert Grindelwald, watches over them.
Draco/Harry
💞 [ART] The Petals Within Me by EraJMCouts | @erajmcouts 💞 (M, Draco/Harry, Digital Art)
The fine lines between love and lust, passion and possession, the want with the distrust.
💞 [FIC] Kiss Me, Kill Me, Keep Me Forever by DrWhoIsGinnyHolmes | @drwhoisginnyholmes 💞 (M, Draco/Harry, 2.4k)
A few quips back and forth, and the next thing Harry knew, he was tasting the insults straight from the devil’s mouth, sucking the popped “P” of his surname off Draco’s tongue and swallowing every scream that ripped through Draco’s self-control.
💞 [FIC] As bright as your smile by Nelween | @nelweensfic💞 (M, Draco/Harry, 2.8k)
In a world where you only start to see colours when you interact with your soulmate, everything turned back to shades of grey for Draco during the final battle. Until Potter and Luna show up to defend him during his trial.
💞 [FIC] Chosen of His Own Accord by AliceLiddle | @drarrypotterrenaissance 💞 (T, Draco/Harry, 17.8k)
From the prompt: Some families (the Malfoys, the Blacks, etc.) choose never to learn who their soulmate is due to the very high likelihood that they’re not a pure-blood. But the desire for your “other half” is strong, and every now and then, someone from those families decides to break tradition.
In which Draco gets braver, Harry chooses his own path, and they both run into each other a lot while running errands.
💞 [FIC] Sparks by annaotherthing | @annanother-thing 💞 (E, Draco/Harry, 20k)
“I’m sorry,” Draco turned to him, “are we boring you?”
Greg looked up. “No, I’m just hungry, and you’re taking far too long to just tell them that you and Potter are soulmates. Do you have to be this dramatic?”
There was a moment of silence, before all hell broke loose.
Harry didn’t know soulmates existed until he was fourteen. He wasn’t sure what he imagined it would be like, but he knew it wasn’t this. But that’s not to say he didn’t like it.
💞 [FIC] Blank Space by Jelliebabie💞 (E, Draco/Harry, 34k)
Life has not been easy for Draco Malfoy since the war. His hopes that he could complete his house arrest and finally get on with his life were not to be. Spat at in the streets, unable to get work, Draco is getting desperate. Desperate enough to put his life in the hands of a backstreet practitioner to see if finally getting rid of the Dark Mark can make a difference. But his decision has consequences he had not expected, and may provide the answer as to why Harry Potter seems unable to leave him alone.
💞 [FIC] A pulled down shade by fast_brother 💞 (M, Draco/Harry, 43.1k)
Harry does not like Draco Malfoy, not even one bit. Never did and never will. That is, until he finds himself married to him.
💞 [FIC] Expiration of a Summer’s Rose by apricitydays 💞 (M, Draco/Harry, 60.0k)
Draco returns to England ten years after the war. Many things are different, but Harry is the same. But what does Harry have to do with Draco’s compelling new interest in botany? After an unexpected event disrupts the life Draco has built for himself, he slowly finds out. A hanahaki case fic
💞[FIC] tell me where it ends by SquibNation10 💞 (E, Draco/Harry, 63k)
After Harry wakes from his short-lived death, he begins to see red strings tied around the fingers of everyone he sees. No one else seems to be able to see them. He is surprised to see who is (or isn’t) tied to each other.
He is tied to Draco Malfoy.
Feature: Supportive Kingsley, a twist on the 8th-year fic
Draco/Harry and Harry/Tom
💞 [ART] Pour My Heart (In Places Where It Can’t Be Touched) by starlitsilvereyes | @starlitsilvereyes💞 (G, Tom/Harry and Draco/Harry, Digital Art)
Draco Malfoy’s soulmate is Harry Potter. Harry Potter’s soulmate is Tom Riddle.
Only Tom Riddle disrupts fate with his bare hands when he decides to split his soul, severing the string that links him to Harry Potter.
The prophecy takes its course – turning star-crossed lovers into enemies.
Draco/Ron
💞 [FIC] unless you’re choosing me by The_HouseRyn | @the-houseryn 💞 (M, Draco/Ron, 31k)
A soulmate was a choice. It was two people deciding to spend the rest of their lives together, weathering any storm. That was a fact that Ron would hold as truth for the rest of his life. Even when the Unspeakables found a spell in some ancient text that tied soulmates together with a red cord and showed them a moment of their “true love”. It was a hoax, he was sure of it. But no one else agreed, willing to upend their lives just because a stupid spell said so. Ron wouldn’t have minded so much if it hadn’t wrecked his.
Harry/Regulus
💞 [FIC] The Enemy of My Enemy by MidnightStargazer | @midnightstargazer💞 (T, Harry/Regulus, 33.8k)
In a world where soulmates are identified by tattoo-like marks on the body, Harry Potter was born with a constellation on his arm. For nearly seventeen years, it sits there, dormant and dark. Then, as he and Dumbledore enter the cave where they believe a Horcrux may be hidden, the stars begin to glow.
The Blacks don’t go looking for their soulmates. Regulus was taught from an early age to ignore the lightning bolt on his skin and prioritize his duty to the family. But when he finds himself thrust into an unfriendly future, his soulmate may be the only person he can trust.
At first glance, the two have little in common beyond their mutual desire to see Voldemort defeated. Will that be enough to bring them together?

Harry/Severus
💞 [ART] Lovers' Eyes by acydpop | @acydpop 💞 (T, Harry/Severus, Traditional Art)
Having a soulmate in their world was dangerous. Being away from Harry while he was in auror training was painful, but Severus found a way to keep Harry with him forever.
💞 [PODFIC] Finders Keepers by Lilian recorded by Cailynwrites💞 (T, Harry/Severus, 50 min)
Based on the fic by Lilian
Severus Snape doesn’t find a single thing until he’s twenty. By that time, he has given up and ignores a young boy, when he arrives at Hogwarts.
💞 [FIC] Invisible String by emeraldlove | @givereadersahug 💞 (G, Harry/Severus, 3.7k)
The first time Harry saw Snape’s black eyes — him truly acknowledging Snape’s existence beyond him being his mean professor — it was the night after Harry killed Professor Quirrell. He was dreaming and in his dreams he was screaming.
Harry dreams of Severus over the years.
Harry/Teddy
💞 [FIC] Of Flowers, Unfaded by Aspen_Gray | @aspengray 💞 (E, Teddy/Harry, 34k)
“Excerpt from Arithmancy journals of the witch Brwyn y Dail, inventor of the Ipsum and Morex spells:
“In crafting this Fpell, it had been mine Intention to affift fuch Perfons that feek their Foulmate. They will come to know themselves with the bundle of Flora I have named the Ipsa Coronae and their Mate or Mates with an Alteri one…Af their Relationfhip groweth, the third and final Coronae, the Vicini, will detail its ftatuf.”
Or: Teddy and Harry are soulmates. It takes a long time for Teddy to realize this fact and an even longer time for Harry to accept it.
Harry/Tom (Voldemort)
💞 [FIC] Stories that end and begin by HadrianPeverellBlack 💞 (M, Tom/Harry, 4k)
Tom had been right.
Now that he was in his fifth year at Hogwarts, he could state that Soulmates were a nuisance.
With the exception of a few souls who could consider themselves lucky, most of them were forced to put up with people they despised and who would do no good for their future.
James/Regulus
💞 [FIC] Fireflies by shushu_yaoi_lj | @orange-peony 💞 (E, James/Regulus, 26.9k)
James’s fingers suddenly brush against his skin, touching the very top of Regulus’s spine.
“This,” James says, his touch featherlight as it ghosts over Regulus’s skin, making it tingle in the most peculiar way. “It’s a lovely tattoo. Almost like antlers. When did you get it?”
Regulus can’t speak.
This can’t be possible.
Of all people—why James Potter?
Still, his mother’s words echo in his head. Every member of the Noble and Most Ancient House of Black has a soul mark. A tattoo that appears at birth and can only be seen by their soulmate.
James/Sirius
💞 [FIC] breakable heaven by Graceless_Lady | @gracelesslady23 💞 (M, James/Sirius, 7.8k)
James lies comatose in the hospital wing with a curse that can be cured by his soulmate’s kiss. Unlike fairytales, however, in life the story doesn’t end with learning your soulmate’s identity… and true love’s course doesn’t always run smoothly.
Marcus/Oliver
💞 [FIC] rough around the edges (but the edges look good) by epsilonargus | @epsilonargus 💞 (G, Marcus/Oliver, 8.5k)
oliver wood is obsessed with 2 things: quidditch, and marcus flint. and his soulmark will be, must be, awakened by marcus flint’s first words—if only he could get the surly slytherin to talk to him…
Marcus/Percy
💞 [FIC] Fifteen Years of Preparation by EloiseEvans | @eloiseevans 💞 (M, Marcus/Percy, 3.3k)
Percy wasn’t ready. A fact that threw him off, regardless of the cause. Because Percy was always ready. It was a fact of life, a tenet that he lived by. The situation was made even worse by the sheer amount of time that he’d had to prepare. Fifteen years to be precise. But together, they would fix it.
Remus/Severus
💞 [FIC] Phantom by nocturn 💞 (T, Remus/Severus, 1.8k)
Soulmates communicate by writing on each other’s skin, Severus leaves Remus on read way too often, and the two confront a little unfinished business because (you guessed it) they’re ghosts!
💞 [FIC] He’s already in me by p0intless_p0et 💞 (T, Severus/Remus, 2.9k)
On the night of Dumbledore’s death, Lupin’s mark appeared.
Remus/Sirius
💞 [Podfic] Coming Across a Silver Moon based on the fic by sliebman10, recorded by BurningAurora | @burningaurora 💞 (T, Sirius/Remus, 30 min)
When Sirius’s father bids him to investigate the rumors of a beast in the forest surrounding their lands, he meets a humble woodsman, Remus, and learns about the mark of true love, and what exactly might be lurking in the forest.
💞 [Podfic] Romantic Obscenities and Other Curiosities Of Love based on the fic by casstayinmyass, recorded by BurningAurora and ashata | @itsaash💞 (T, Sirius/Remus, 41 min)
Sirius Black’s soulmate has a foul mouth– that’s all he knows. Remus Lupin wonders what he could have possibly done to warrant such an explosion of words that he’s had tattooed on his back his whole life. In the small mountain town of Hogsmeade, they’re both bound to find out soon
💞 [FIC] Click to Connect by TherestheSnitch | @theresthesnitch 💞 (E, Sirius/Remus, 11.0k)
When the only way to find a soulmate is to see if you Click! during anal sex, being a Bottom with a very well endowed soulmate can make things hard–hard to get off, that is. Sirius is a little desperate to find his big-cocked Top soulmate.e
Severus/Sirius
💞 [FIC] Soulless: Blind Date by picklesonsaturday | @picklesonjupiter 💞 (T, Sirius/Severus, 1.7k)
There were three types of soulmates: platonic, romantic, and enemy. Severus was one of the rare few without a soulmate. He was one of the soulless. Those who are shunned by society because they are seen as unable to make connections, which is a blatant lie.
Or
Severus has the opportunity of finding love when he goes on a blind date.

generic sabertooth hcs?
they try not to talk about the time before sting was master
they try not to talk about the minerva that was before she was taken by tartaros
they try not to talk about tartaros at all
the general vibe of the guild post-sting and post-minerva is like if blue pegasus was just a bit more fairy tail
theyre fancy and professional but theyre also batshit insane
biggest guild even a year after alvarez
most popular guild even a year after alvarez
after sting became master a lot of the ex fairy tail members from 7 years ago either rejoined fairy tail or joined sabertooth. hence why sabertooth is big and popular
sting, no matter how serious and professional he tries to be, is always known as the goofball dumbass master to the members. even the newest members
rogue, no matter how unserious and relaxed he tries to be, is always known as the no-nonsense hardass to the members. even the eldest members
again, the newest members mistake rogue for the master and sting for his assistant. because sting made rogue the one to show the new ones around
the eldest members also refer to rogue as their master bc its hilarious
rogue honestly does more of the paperwork than sting unless it needs the masters magic signature. he knows how to forge signatures and does it most of the time
sting is still the master bc rogue doesnt like all that publicity. sting genuinely does think rogue would be a better master. hes basically already the master
stings still has the final say, though. guildhall needs renovations? talk to sting. guildhall needs a new shipment of something? talk to sting. going on a quest? tell sting. wanna be s-class? talk to sting.
they have their own s-class trials. it used to be fighting the old master and whoever drew blood would be the only s-class for that year. now it changes every year, but its never fighting your family. never again
honestly sabertooth and fairy tail ruin whatevers left of the magic council. theyve gotten to the point of wondering if joint guild membership can be a thing. then they can lump st and ft together for taxes and punishments
it would probably help the confusion whenever the ft dragon slayers show up at st for a 'slayer meeting' or when the st slayers show up at ft for the same

juvia Wasn't Needed
by: @perfectlyimperfectcharacterfan
"juvia really wasn't needed plot wise. Some would argue she help[ed] the team enter the Tower of Heaven but I'm pretty sure they would have found a way without her. Same for Battle of Fairy tail. she literally accomplished nothing there. she was absent from Edolas and Oracion Seis.
I'd ignore the filler arcs because they are trash, but in the Daphnee arc she didn't do anything either, besides blindly defending Gray even though he was 100% in the wrong (and I say this asa massive Gray fan). In Tenrou she arguably dragged the whole fight down with her obsession with Gray. she only saved Meredy because she was about to kill Gray. And it was entirely JUVIA'S fault. If she could actually put her feelings for Gray aside in a very dangerous fight, Gray would never have been so close to die to begin with.
In GMG, she didn't care about her own guild's reputation, only to be with Gray. I'll never get over her LOSING A BATTLE IN WATER. she could have changed in water and force everyone out, but got distracted by Gray, again. her winning would have prevented Minerva from torturing Lucy. she was absent from Sun village. Only in Tartaros did she do something remotely useful by killing Keith. But that was only because he was a threat to Gray.
Also the whole fight against Invel in Alvarez was forced af. It's not indicative of juvia's usefuleness. Invel would have used anyone around."
My Two Cents
Huge thank you to @perfectlyimperfectcharacterfan (I'll refer to them as "Perfectly" for ease now in this post), a delightful regular on my blog who always comments insightful thoughts about juvia and gr///via on my posts, who sent this to me in a dm and allowed me to make a post about it!
They did an amazing job parsing through the arcs, and I really don't need to add anything, but I'll just slide in my two cents at the end here.
About the BOFT arc, one could say that juvia did manage to free her and Cana from Freid's spell, but as I've said before, that was just her earning brownie points, and she kept none of the alleged "character growth" from that. Plus in the end, it was Mirajane who had to defeat Freid anyway, so her "sacrifice" really was useless.
I love what Perfectly said about the Daphne arc. I completely and totally agree with them (and I actually have an old post about this exact topic here if y'all want to read it). I couldn't have said it better myself, that juvia blindly defended Gray despite his wrongdoings, showing how she really only "cared" about Gray and not the rest of the guildmates that got horribly hurt by his stupid mistakes. That's not trust, that's insane obsession that keeps her believing Gray is infallible and perfect no matter what he does, which is so toxic towards Gray and her and everyone around them.
In the GMG, like Perfectly touched on, juvia didn't care about the guild's reputation. she didn't care that for 7 years, Fairy Tail struggled, was bullied, was mocked, was actually oppressed by the other guilds into paying absurd taxes, because they lost their most powerful members to Tenrou Island. Not only that, but they mourned for years because their friends and family had disappeared, and they didn't know if they were dead or alive. All of this hurt and trauma FT went through couldn't matter less to juvia lockser.
True FT member my butt; she doesn't love any of them, not even Gray. she didn't care enough to actually try in the GMG, and she actually wished for her FT guildmates to get hurt so badly that they had to drop out so she could participate with Gray. The wickedness of her heart is astounding. And yeah, she totally whiffed what should've been the easiest match up for her in the water battle, leading to Lucy being abused just as Perfectly said, and she also threw the Hide and Seek match by being a "love" obsessed idiot as she always is.
And let's not forget that after the GMG during the dragon battle, juvia literally gets Gray killed because she's not paying attention to anything except for Gray as always, even in the midst of a life-and-death situation, and makes it so that Gray has to save her butt for her. I mean, how much worse could this ship get, when it literally causes one of them (the victim, even) to die needlessly???
On the whole note of juvia's uselessness, one could even go as far to say that juvia is an active hinderance and blight on the lives of the people around her. she really constantly oozes toxicity and sucks the life out of everyone she comes into contact with, most of all Gray through her manipulation and abuse, but also all the women in Gray's life, as well as her fellow FT members. she is a weak link, a liability, an impediment, a stone dragging down and drowning everyone, including herself. she will never notice or care about that fact because she gets what she wants in the end, what she thinks is good: Gray's brow-beaten, brainwashed "affection".
No one wins when they rely on her. she is a parasite.
Anyway, gigantic shoutout to Perfectly again for taking the time to think so deeply about all these things, for sharing their thoughts with me, and for allowing me to share them with all of you! juvia really is a useless character, and the Fairy Tail story and her guildmates would've been infinitely better off without her.
#really appreciate the effort Perfectly put into all of this#this post literally spans all of fairy tail#so depressingly hilarious to see how worthless juvia has been this entire time#but hey who is surprised?#it is juvia we are talking about after all#anti gruvia#anti juvia#anti juvia lockser#anti juvia loxar#fairy tail#defend gray fullbuster#gray fullbuster#anti gray x juvia#anti gray fullbuster x juvia lockser#fairytail#fairy tail discussion#fairy tail discourse#gralunaessay

Word Count: 4826
Rating: Mature
Summary: Hogwarts is a safe haven, a home for many, but it’s often a place where heartache, love and complex emotions dwell and none know that better than the Marauders. Lily Evans just wants to make it out as a successful witch though the oncoming war and the ongoing advances of James Potter threaten that. Daisy Evans, her twin, has other goals. Join the Evans sisters as they make their way through Hogwarts, prepare for war and eventually find love.
Tags/ Warnings: Hogwarts, Friends, Friends to Lovers, Slow Burn, Marauder’s Era, Teenage Angst, Babies, Weddings, Dating, Crying, Loss of Virginity, First Wizarding War, Love, Kissing, Teenagers, James Potter is a bit of a dick, Hogsmeade, 1970s, Fighting, Loss of Parents, Grief, Babies, Injuries, Gore, Harm, Christmas, The Potter’s Mansion // Daisy’s Dress // NYE Lily’s Dress // NYE Daisy’s Dress // Lily’s Ring // Daisy’s Ring
Notes: Okay so I’ve been working on updating this and I’ve finally gone through all the chapters already written before I start writing more. It’s changed a lot so I’ve decided it’s just better to completely re-upload it.
If you want tagging let me know
LINK TO AO3 // LINK TO PINTEREST // LINK TO ALL PARTS
The air was electric, exhilarating the crowd of sweaty bodies crammed into the concert hall as they eagerly cheered and clapped in appreciation for their entertainers of the night. Daisy could barely believe she’d been able to see her favourite band, Queen, live in the flesh let alone be smiled at by the Freddie Mercury who’d clocked her and Sirius singing along very enthusiastically to Killer Queen. And yet that hadn’t even been her favourite point, no, her favourite moment was feeling Sirius’ arms around her, singing ‘You’re My Best Friend,’ down her ear not knowing just how much she felt those words. It was a moment she’d cherish forever and one she wouldn’t trade for anything even if it did come with the tax of having to fight their way through a crowd fifteen thousand deep and get half way across London to get home.
Given that they were still both underage neither were able to apparate and so they’d floo’d to Sirius’ flat from the Potters as it wasn’t so far away from the venue. They were supposed to be headed back the same way but Daisy had no sooner stepped foot over the threshold before Sirius was on her, his lips attacking hers as he steered her towards the couch. She fell onto it with a thump, breathless from his frenzied attack, and watched as he clambered on shirking off his jacket before he returned to kissing her. Daisy melted into him, feeling heady as his hand danced under her dress, caressing along her skin. She could feel herself getting excited but they didn’t have time to spare. Euphemia would no doubt be worried if they didn’t get home soon and she didn’t fancy her sending someone to find them. So reluctantly she mumbled his name.
‘Mmm?’ he mumbled against her lips, not bothering to stop kissing her even though she turned her head to the side to continue speaking. Instead he merely carried on moving his lips down her jaw and neck, making her heart pulse in response.
‘It’s late,’ she mumbled.
‘So?’ he murmured against her skin.
‘They’ll be expecting us back,’ she said glumly. Sirius pulled back to look at her, a mischievous grin on his lips as he said, ‘nah they won’t. We’re staying here tonight.’
‘How? We have no stuff and they think we’re coming home,’ she said, pushing herself up onto her elbows. Sirius moved to allow her, sitting back on the couch and pulling her onto his lap as he explained, ‘I squared it with Euphemia this morning and I put the stuff we need in your bag.’
‘How the hell did you manage that?’ Daisy gawked.
‘You should know there’s a lot I can pull off by now. Anyway, should I be offended that you don’t want to stay with me?’ Sirius asked, quirking an eyebrow. Daisy smacked his chest playfully, ‘don’t be daft you know I do but how the hell did you clear that with Euphemia. I mean she makes us stay in separate rooms for god’s sake.’
‘And because we’re so good at obeying her rules,’ Sirius joked, making her giggle as she recalled all the nights they’d started a floor away from one another only to end up in the same bed come the morning, ‘she felt sorry for us. Mainly because I played to her sympathies and explained that thanks to her son we barely get any time alone.’
‘Oh I bet she didn’t stand a chance,’ Daisy giggled.
‘She was very sympathetic to the cause,’ Sirius grinned.
‘Did you give her your best puppy dog eyes?’ Daisy teased though she knew even without them it wouldn’t have taken him long to talk her around.
‘Didn’t need to. I merely pointed out that with us out of the house she’d have the dear old lad and Lily alone. And with the boys coming tomorrow too it’d be her last chance to have them all to herself,’ Sirius said smugly.
It was a good tactic. Ever since they’d landed at the Potter’s Euphemia had fawned over them day in and day out as expected. But what had taken everyone by surprise however was just how much Euphemia had taken to Lily, much to James’ chagrin. Of course he liked that his mother and girlfriend got along but he’d started to feel put out that he wasn’t the sole person responsible in adoring everything her sister did from the moment she woke up to the moment she went to bed. And without Lily to follow around he’d resorted to doing whatever Sirius and Daisy were doing which often ended up to be not what they wanted to be doing now they had a third wheel. Daisy had to admire his cunning even though she knew it would mean an earful from Lily who, of course loved Euphemia, but was still struggling to find five minutes to herself even in a house as big as theirs.
‘Very crafty,’ she said, wrapping her arms around his neck as his lips met hers in a soft kiss.
‘That’s me,’ he mumbled.
‘With a one-track mind it seems,’ she giggled, grinding on the taught material of his pants.
‘Definitely,’ he growled and before she could respond he’d flipped her onto the couch.
✵✵✵
Grubby, that was the only word that sprung to mind as Daisy brushed her teeth in the bathroom of Sirius’ flat. Of course she wasn’t surprised that the bathroom could do with a good clean considering it had been left empty for months but as she rinsed off her toothbrush and spat into the sink she was just thankful that they’d only be staying here the night. And that Sirius had had the forethought to load up her enchanted bag with everything they might need seeing as she didn’t feel like dipping under the covers sans pyjamas after seeing the state of the toilet.
When she re-emerged in the bedroom Sirius was already in bed, dressed in just a t-shirt and his underwear, sitting reading a book which he subsequently placed on the bedside table once she appeared. Her heart thudded at the sight of him forcing any ideas of subpar cleanliness from her head with each thump as she rushed over to the bed and climbed on, cuddling into his side as he lay down and wrapped his arms around her. They lay there for a moment, watching each other in quiet adoration, listening to the sounds of each other breathing and the hum of traffic from far below muted by the windows and thick purple curtains.
After a moment she leaned in and brushed her lips against his, groaning as he moved her in closer to deepen it. She knew they should probably go to sleep, that it was late and if they overslept there’d no doubt be hell to pay when they eventually waltzed into the Potter’s mansion, but she couldn’t stop herself. She just had to kiss him so that she could add this moment to a dozen other memories of the day, each of them just as special as the rest. When she broke away from him however he was watching her as if there was not a thought in his mind as he said, ‘move in with me.’
‘What?’ Daisy asked, unsure that she’d heard him correctly. Sirius too paused as if he hadn’t heard his own words. As wide green eyes watched him, waiting for an explanation, he felt his mind spin. It was a question he’d been thinking about for a while, ever since they’d landed back at the Potters and found the house slightly chaotic with its now six inhabitants. Still, it was a big thing to ask as evidenced by the shock on her pretty face but he didn’t back down. If there was a time to do it was now, when it was just the two of them, happy and content.
‘I mean it,’ he said firmly, ‘move in with me.’
‘Like move in here?’ she asked, pulling back so that she could sit up as she tried to digest what he was asking of her. Sirius followed tentatively, trying to hide his disappointment at the loss of contact.
‘Yeah, I mean not right now but like next year, after school has finished,’ he reasoned, trying to establish whether his sentiments were as ridiculous as her expression was making him feel they were. Except her expression wasn’t reassuring and without meaning to he mumbled glumly, ‘you don’t want to.’
‘I hadn’t really thought about it,’ she admitted. She hadn’t thought about anything really. Given everything that had happened at the end of term she’d been focused on getting to seventh year unscathed let alone what they were going to do afterwards or what their living arrangements would be. Of course Sirius had thought about it. He always seemed to be one step ahead, almost better at planning than Lily which took some doing. With that thought she found herself asking, ‘when did you?’
‘Well I didn’t not really but I always figured I wouldn’t be able to stay with the Potters forever-‘
‘Euphemia would disagree I’m sure,’ Daisy joked, feeling a touch less tense when he smirked.
‘Yeah I know but I have this place so it makes sense to use it, right?’ Sirius asked.
‘True,’ Daisy said, ‘I guess I just hadn’t thought about it.’
‘It’s alright if you don’t want to,’ he said. Daisy sighed.
‘It’s not that I don’t want to. It’s just, oh, I don’t know, I guess I haven’t thought about any of it. I mean it makes sense for you to move in here after school but we still have the house which me and Lil haven’t even figured out yet,’ Daisy said.
‘Shit, yeah, I hadn’t thought about that,’ Sirius said, the sting of her not agreeing outright diminishing now that idea was in the mix.
‘Have you told James yet?’ she asked.
‘That I want to move in with you?’ Sirius asked as his brow furrowed. It was a question that had taken him off guard and for a moment he thought she may have been deflecting to spare his feelings over her reluctance until she replied, ‘I don’t know why but I guess I always saw the pair of you moving in together after school.’
‘Funnily enough I don’t like James in that way,’ he quipped, earning a thump on the arm and a roll of the eyes as she said, ‘you know what I mean! The pair of you are going to be doing the auror’s course together. You live together now it’s not a stretch.’
‘We might have talked about it at one point but is it such a stretch to think I might want to live with my girlfriend?’ Sirius reasoned. Daisy sighed.
‘No, I guess I just never saw myself settling down right out of Hogwarts. Like marriage and kids and all that,’ Daisy said, recalling her surprise at Lily not being averse to a picture-perfect traditional family life straight out of school instead of a career. Daisy wasn’t even career driven and the idea of stepping out of school robes into a wedding dress had baffled her even if Sirius was the one for her, they had the rest of their lives together so why would they rush it.
‘Well it’s a good job I didn’t ask for all that then isn’t it,’ Sirius said.
‘No but that’s what happens isn’t it? Once you live together that all follows,’ Daisy said.
‘Probably but it doesn’t have to. Not right away. We’re a family Dais,’ Sirius sighed as he placed his hand on her cheek, caressing his thumb against her soft skin. He could see her rationale but surely she knew that they didn’t have to do all that just off the back of one decision. Did he love her? With everything in him. Did he want to marry her? One day. But did that mean he needed her to do it right that second? Not at all.
‘I know that,’ she mumbled.
‘So you know that whether we live together or not we’re not going to stop being a family,’ he reasoned, ‘wherever we are. We don’t have to rush into anything.’
‘Can I sleep on it?’ she asked, gnawing on her lip.
‘Of course,’ Sirius said, pressing a kiss to her forehead before he slipped back down onto the bed. Daisy watched apprehensively for a moment; the easy-going ambience they’d been basking in now replaced by an uneasy tension as she settled down beside him. Sirius moved to turn off the light, plunging the room into darkness. Now that she couldn’t see him it was slightly less awkward and she felt a tad better as she cuddled into his side and found he allowed her to, wrapping his arms around her shoulders as he placed a kiss on the top of her head.
‘You know I love you right?’ she asked after a moment.
‘Of course I do,’ Sirius whispered.
‘Because I don’t want you to think that I don’t just because I didn’t agree right away,’ she whispered.
‘Daisy if you think you’re getting rid of me that easily you’ve got another thing coming,’ he quipped.
‘Yeah, never getting rid of you, am I?’ she smiled.
‘Not bloody likely,’ he agreed, ‘night Dais.’
‘Night Pads.’
✵✵✵
When Sirius awoke the following morning he was alone in the bed. He lay there listening for sounds of Daisy in the nearby bathroom but they didn’t come so after rubbing the sleep from his eyes he climbed out of bed with a yawn and went to investigate. As he pulled the French doors open he could hear her in the kitchen, the beat of the radio wafting through the flat along with the smell of bacon. When he got to the kitchen he found her standing by the cooker, nudging a couple pieces of bacon around in the pan causing them to sizzle and spit in protest. He moved towards her, wrapping his arms around her as he rested his chin on her shoulder to watch what she was doing.
‘Morning,’ she said, using her free hand to pat his arm in recognition he was there before she carried on cooking.
‘Morning,’ he yawned, ‘what are you doing?’
‘What does it look like,’ she giggled, ‘I’m making us some breakfast.’
‘How?’ he asked, it wasn’t like there would be any usable food in the cupboards since they’d all been cleared out.
‘Well you get your frying pan and your food and-’
‘Very funny,’ he said, poking her in the side and making her squirm.
‘Yeah well some of us didn’t grow up with house elves,’ she giggled, ‘I bet you’ve never even boiled an egg.’
‘Don’t need to, I've got you to do it for me,’ he chuckled, kissing her cheek as she rolled her eyes, ‘but I meant where did you get the stuff?’
‘I nipped the shop this morning,’ she said, moving to grab the toast that had just popped up from the toaster. As he let her go he realised she was now fully dressed, a pair of shorts and a t-shirt adorning her figure rather than the pyjamas he’d last seen her in. He was still watching her when she turned around, hot pieces of toast singing her fingertips as she pushed him out of the way. Sensing he was more of a hindrance standing there he took a seat at the small kitchen table and said, ‘you didn’t need to do that. We could’ve gone out.’
‘I didn’t mind,’ she said, waving him off before she returned to making him a plate. He watched her flit about the kitchen, eventually coming to sit beside him as she placed a plate in front of him.
‘Thanks,’ he smiled.
‘No problem,’ Daisy said.
Without hesitation he dove in, not realising just how hungry he had become until the food was staring him in the face. Daisy however didn’t follow suit. She pushed her fork around her plate to seem as though she was but she had yet to take a bite because she was too busy watching him. She had done the same when she’d woken up this morning as her mind whirred about the night before and what he had asked of her. It wasn’t exactly a simple thing to say yes to. After all she had Lily and their house to think of. Not to mention she was sure James would be under the impression the pair of them would be taking the next steps of their lives together. But watching him she realised that he was right and that this, sitting in this tiny kitchen eating breakfast or waking up in the same bed together, was what she wanted. And he was right that didn’t mean that all the other stuff had to follow right away. Sirius had been too busy mopping up the yolk of his egg with a piece of toast but when he noticed she hadn’t moved he looked up and found her watching him.
‘What?’ he asked, instinctively moving his hand to his face in case there might be something around his mouth from the frenzied way he’d attacked his morning meal.
‘Okay,’ Daisy said simply.
‘Okay?’ he asked.
‘Okay I’ll move in with you,’ she said.
‘Really?’ he asked excitedly.
‘Yeah, I mean we’ll have to talk to James and Lil about it and I have a feeling James will be heartbroken at the idea,’ Daisy giggled, placing her hand on the back of his. Sirius smirked, ‘he’ll survive.’
‘Good because I want to,’ she said firmly.
‘Daisy that’s brilliant,’ he said leaning in to kiss her.
When he pulled back he stayed closer, his hand ghosting up her neck as he said, ‘now will you marry me?’
‘Not funny,’ Daisy said, pushing him away as he laughed uproariously at the look on her face. Daisy ignored him and attempted to tuck into her eggs but his teasing appeared to have gotten hold of him which forced her to say, ‘I can still change my mind you know!’
‘Not a chance,’ Sirius smiled.
✵✵✵
By the time they got back to the Potter’s Remus and Peter had arrived for the rest of the summer and so the majority of the day was spent lounging around and catching up on each other’s holidays as well as the concert. It was a day spent indoors which is probably why Euphemia insisted they eat their dinner out in the garden, to make the most of the light summer’s night. It was warm outside but there was a slight breeze that made it just comfortable enough to be sat out there which was fortunate as they spent a long time outside, grazing at the copious amounts of food Euphemia had provided, whilst catching her and Fleamont up on what they had missed. Yet as the sky started to get darker with pinks and purples spanning across it signaling night was coming Euphemia and Fleamont announced they’d be heading back into the house.
The group bid them goodbye and they had no sooner gone back in through the back door before James said, ‘so anyone fancy a game of quidditch?’
‘We’ve just eaten,’ Lily protested.
‘So?’ James said.
‘Yeah Lil can’t waste a moment I mean the boys have been here all of ten seconds,’ Daisy teased.
‘Exactly we’ve waited long enough don’t you think,’ James said, ‘besides you girls can always join if you want.’
‘No thanks,’ Daisy said.
‘Suit yourself. Lil?’ James asked, receiving a shake of the head, ‘boys?’
‘Go on then,’ Sirius said, wiping his hands on a napkin as he stood up.
‘Yeah me too,’ Peter said.
‘Rem?’ Sirius asked, looking at Remus who looked between three expectant faces and then sighed.
‘Go on then,’ Remus grumbled, climbing out of his seat.
‘Sure we can't tempt you?’ James said as he climbed out of his seat. Lily shook her head once more, ‘suit yourselves. We won’t be long.’
‘Be careful,’ Lily said as he pressed a kiss to her temple before following the boys down towards the field.
Daisy watched as they trudged down the long, manicured lawn which descended into wilder grass before eventually being submerged by trees leaving them out of view. As they disappeared from sight four brooms zoomed from the house in the direction they’d gone. Daisy watched as the brooms disappeared into the treeline, wondering how the boys could be bothered to fly about after a full meal, though as she looked back she found her sister wasn’t thinking the same and instead Lily was watching her, a smile on her face, ‘so go on.’
‘What?’ Daisy asked self-consciously.
‘How was last night? More to the point, how did you convince Euphemia to let the pair of you out in the real world alone,’ Lily pressed.
‘I don’t know. That was all Sirius,’ Daisy mused, ‘but I’m glad because we had a good night and then we didn’t need to rush back or anything.’
‘Yeah I’ll bet it was better than mine,’ Lily grumbled.
‘That bad?’ Daisy winced.
‘Euphemia insisted we have a formal dinner,’ Lily explained, ‘which meant grilling every inch of our relationship practically from first year to yesterday.’
‘Ouch,’ Daisy muttered.
‘Yeah all whilst you and Pads were doing god knows what,’ Lily said, raising an eyebrow at Daisy who could feel pink tinge her cheeks even through her golden complexion. Though as she spoke she realised this would be a good time to bring up what Sirius had asked of her, more to the point it would help breaking the news to James a little easier.
‘Well if it makes you feel any better next summer you can always stay at our place,’ Daisy said, watching her sister closely as she sipped her drink. She could see the words landing, Lily not comprehending the joke as she said, ‘our place?’
‘Yeah,’ Daisy said, ‘Sirius asked me to move into the flat with him once we finish school and I said yes.’
‘Wow, that’s,’ Lily started, trailing off as the news finally registered which admittedly didn’t fill her sister with much hope though fortunately she didn’t shout or scold her as expected but merely asked, ‘and that’s what you want?’
‘I think so,’ Daisy said, ‘no, I do. I really do.’
‘That’s good,’ Lily said, though her tone lacked conviction.
‘And it’s not like it’s right now. I mean we’ve got another year of school before we even have to think about it. And in a way it’s good it’s not like I’ll be out in the big bad world on my own,’ Daisy reasoned. Lily nodded half-heartedly.
She could see Daisy’s point. She and Sirius had been dating just as long as her and James and it was the logical next step in both relationships. It just felt very final. They’d always been together, one entity. Even when they’d strived for individuality the other had always been there in some way. Even Daisy living in the boys dormitory for a good half of the year hadn’t stopped them from being apart because they’d still been under the same roof. Now they were going to be apart, for the first time ever. Their own people. With their own lives. It was a big change.
‘Are you mad?’ Daisy asked after a moment of quiet.
‘No,’ Lily said earnestly, ‘just surprised.’
‘Me too to be honest,’ Daisy admitted.
‘I just can’t believe he’s been thinking of it. I mean I haven’t even thought about what we’re gonna do after school,’ Lily said.
‘I know and he was me thinking Tuney was a loon for settling down so young,’ Daisy giggled.
‘My, my Daisy who said anything about settling down,’ Lily smirked.
‘Oh you know what I mean,’ Daisy said, rolling her eyes.
‘Mmmhmm,’ Lily teased. The pair fell quiet for a moment as Daisy took another sip. It was still quite warm out but as the breeze blew through the garden it made goosebumps appear on Daisy’s tanned skin. She wondered how they were still playing given that the breeze would no doubt be a lot colder twenty feet in the air though the shouts and jeers from just beyond the tree line were still audible.
Lily however wasn’t paying attention to what the boys were doing; she was too busy watching her little sister who had all of a sudden become ready to leave her side. She knew she wasn’t really leaving her rather that this was the natural progression of things but with all that had been going on and the prospect of the next few years being a literal war she couldn’t help but want to hold her close. That was probably why she had fended off thinking about what they would do after school. It had been why she had hated Euphemia’s grilling last night as she seemed intent on knowing where they were headed together when that still felt up in the air these days. Still if she was going to pick anyone for her sister it’d be Sirius. In fact being forced to discuss her and James courtship had made her realise just how lucky the pair of them were to become friends with the boys, how much emptier their lives would’ve been if Daisy hadn’t been so intent on bringing them down and almost getting herself killed.
‘I think they’d like him, you know,’ Lily said, catching her sister’s attention as her brow furrowed in confusion, ‘mum and dad. I think they’d like that you’re happy.’
‘Yeah I think they would,’ Daisy said, surprised to find that her heart didn’t hurt at the idea of her parents but rather twinged with wistfulness that they’d had to miss out on their lives as they were now, ‘James too.’
‘I think it’d take dad a minute to come around,’ Lily giggled.
‘Well I dare say he’d like him more than he likes Vernon. At least James wouldn’t bore him about drills,’ Daisy reasoned.
‘No but I’m sure he could bend his ear about Puddlemore United even though dad’s never watched a game,’ Lily giggled.
‘At least there’d be no interrogation from him,’ Daisy reasoned.
‘Yeah only because Tuney covered everything they could possibly ask,’ Lily said rolling her eyes as she recounted the endless slew of questions their older sister had unleashed on not only James but Sirius too the day that they’d gone back to the house in order to sort some things out given that they wouldn’t be spending the summer there.
‘Yeah well who cares what she thinks it’s not like she’s the one who has to go out with them,’ Daisy said.
‘True,’ Lily agreed.
At that moment Bonney and a house elf the pair hadn’t seen before appeared, looking apprehensive when they saw the girls sitting there though she managed to work up her nerve quickly and said, ‘I’m sorry Misses. Mistress has asked that we tidy everything away. Is that okay?’
‘Of course,’ Lily said, ‘do you need help?’
‘Oh no Miss we’ll be just fine. Thank you though,’ she squeaked as she started to load up plates and cutlery into a neat stack. Daisy watched her for a second before she stood up and said, ‘c’mon let’s go up to the patio.’
‘Yeah okay,’ Lily said, smiling at Bonney as she followed Daisy towards the stone steps to the second storey patio. It was colder up here, Daisy’s theory about the breeze being icier the higher up you were proved correct, but there was a blanket left on the outdoor furniture that the two cosied up under, watching the tree line as tiny figures dipped in and out of view against a purple-pink backdrop.
‘Lil?’ Daisy asked after a moment of watching the boys.
‘Yeah?’ Lily asked.
‘What do you think James will say?’ she asked, turning to look at her sister who shifted to face her.
‘About you and Sirius moving in?’ Lily asked, Daisy nodded, ‘oh I think he’ll be bereft.’
‘I thought so too,’ Daisy sighed.
‘Nah he’ll be fine. I know they’d spoken about it but it makes sense for you two to move in together,’ Lily said.
‘Maybe you can soothe the blow by asking him to move in with you?’ Daisy said, raising an eyebrow.
‘Doubt it. I’m sometimes sure he loves Pads more than he loves me,’ Lily giggled, ‘but it looks like we won't have much of a choice at this rate with the pair of you abandoning us and all.’
‘Oh I’m sure you two could find somewhere nearby,’ Daisy said, ‘maybe you could lead with that when you break the news?’
‘Oh it’s all on me is it?’ Lily said, rolling her eyes.
‘Definitely,’ Daisy giggled.

How do you interpret Percy's relationships with the other students at Hogwarts (i.e. not his family or their friends)? Do you think they looked up to him, were annoyed by him, etc.? What about his relationships with the professors?
Generally, I interpret his relationship with other people at Hogwarts as positive.
I understand why many people think he would be widely disliked due to Harry’s general disdain towards Percy, but that’s a perspective that is heavily influenced and filtered through Ron and the twins’ bias. I think the students who were friends with his siblings tended to be outliers, rather than the rule. For example, in a study of cracked gold, Ginny’s friends are confused about why her favourite brother is Percy, because whilst Percy is steady and dependable, the twins are fun; it’s also unlikely that as second-third years three years below the twins they would have been targeted before Percy left and the twins started to test out products on the younger years. Also, this was a throwaway line to illustrate how peculiar it was for Ginny’s favourite brother to be Percy to a handful of tween/early teen girls, who are not a majority of Hogwart’s population.
But from the perspective of the general populace? Well, School Captains - School Co-Captains - School Head Prefects - whatever you want to call them, the two senior year-level students chosen as school leaders. They are generally well-liked by the broad student population. It doesn’t make sense that this level of authority would be given to a student who the general student populace does not like. Let us look at other known Head Boys and Girls (how unnecessarily gendered - I am going to call them Head Prefects from now on): Albus Dumbledore, Minerva McGonagall, James Potter (probably the clearest example as he was /not/ a prefect beforehand), Lily Evans and Bill Weasley (who is ‘cool’). So, logically speaking, Percy must have not been unpopular, with a base of ‘well respected’ at the bare minimum.
I don’t think Percy was necessarily, strictly, popular a la James or Bill. I think he was well-liked and generally well-regarded amongst the student population, probably more like Minerva was. Me and some of my lovely Percy Weasley peers have developed a web of ideas where Percy tutors younger students and is generally a great mentor to them, drawing from his strong big brother tendencies deflected by his actual siblings: thanks to @infinitelycynical, @cixxsxturn and others for the collaborative brainstorming a few months ago. I think Percy - as a calm, studious and helpful personality who, yes, was a little uptight about rules - was generally well-liked and respected by the students, particularly in contrast to the twins, who liked to constantly disturb people’s lives with their pranks.
Now moving on to the professors - I think they generally liked him: again, he made Prefect, and then Head Boy (Prefect). He was clearly a studious, dedicated student. I think Snape did not like him, but gave him begrudging respect, purely because he was a Gryffindor Weasley and he is a narrow-minded prick. The professors are much clearer-cut than students: from my own experience, teachers greatly enjoy students who actually do the work and engage in the lessons. Note that I said engage, not dominate. A student like Hermione can be taxing and draining as she demands all of the professor’s attention and doesn’t allow the other students to participate. Percy, on the other hand, is more mellow, and seems more willing to work collaboratively (as he does in the Ministry, as he likely studied with Penelope, as he likely helped Oliver out with Quidditch strategy, etc).
Throughout Hogwarts, I think Percy was liked by most people and respected almost universally. Maybe not at the start, maybe not when he was still learning how to interact socially (cough, autistic, cough), but I think as he grew, as he gained friends such as Oliver and Penelope and was allowed to flourish outside of his family’s stifling dynamic, by the time he became Prefect, he had become the good student and mentor viewed positively by most of Hogwarts.
And that eventually carried through the rest of his life, in a vibe similar to that described by @louff4tw in this post.
Essentially:
Thoughts on Percy Weasley?

Snape ask, question 1 and 9
Thank you for the ask!
1.) Do you have a snOTP? What is it?
I am a sucker for Snirius/Snack/Starprince/whatever combo you like to use to describe shipping Severus Snape with Sirius Black (for a given value of shipping; I’m a big fan of silliness and chaos and shenanigans).
I personally like to ship them when they’re acting like a dramatic pair of scenery-chewing thrice(+) divorced unhinged disasters for whom a best friend (that is, Lily for Sev and James for Sirius) rather than a romantic (-ish? No one outside of them is entirely certain) partner is/was the most important person in their life. Like, their broken pieces don’t match up (more often their shattered edges grate against one another) but at least they sort of rhyme and no one is asking them to walk on the eggshells of gentle politeness or trying to treat them like they’re made of spun sugar ready to fall apart. Maybe the flavor I like can be described as old fr/enemies with/for (tax) benefits.
Mostly, I want to watch them (attempt to) co-parent Harry (to Harry’s mild distress and extreme bafflement).
As for snOT3s, I do enjoy Jevily and Snucissa for different flavors of interaction too.
9.) What are your personal headcanons on Snape's diet and favourite foods?
He’d live off spite and coffee and the occasional boiled brassica (for fiber and vitamins) if left to his own devices. Also, most potions ingredients are at least eatable if not entirely palatable; so he’d probably be getting some protein in that way.
At Hogwarts he probably at least picks away at a well-balanced meal because Minerva and Pomona and Poppy and Albus are all at the same table watching him and being fussed at is annoying. At Spinner’s End I can see him getting fish and chips on the regular (I think he can cook, he just doesn’t bother to cook if it would only feed himself). I also like to think the Malfoys haul him out of Spinner’s End every summer and host him at their manor for a few weeks where they can make sure he’s eating something other than manufactured muggle junk food (and attempt to keep him in touch with their idea of the right sort of people and society).
As for favorite foods, I think he has a sweet tooth; I like to think he had a habit of “obtaining” parma violets and scrumping apples as a kid (maybe he had to steal what little sweetness he could get as a kid). Also, as an adult, he can deny himself dessert as an easy/stealthy method of self-punishment even Minerva might miss.

10. Crabbe and Goyle can only be paired with Daphne Greengrass, Astoria Greengrass, Milicent Bulstrode, Susan Bones, Hannah Abbot, each other or an Oc.
Now,just to clarify, Harry won't be adoted by all the mean girls at the same time ofc. You get to choose. Here's how i envision him turning out if adopted by each of them:
Harry James Heron Samuels (Adopted son of Cady and Aaron):
+Crazy good at math. As expected since Cady is his mom.
+Like Cady, he loves animals and nature so he ends up being as found of magical creatures as Charlie, Newt or Hagrid.
+Also compares high school to a jungle.
+Highly observer/this nigga is in no way in hell oblivious like his canon self.
+Loves Pranks.
+I'd imagine he is a major bookworm, specially since canon Harry most likely would be if it weren't for the Dursley's
+Gryffindor through and through.
+ Takes Care and Artimancy.
+Goes on to work with magical cratures.
+Has a major vengefull streak.
+recomended ships: Harmony, Huna , Notter and Charry (is this the oficial name for the Harry/Charlie Weasley ship? )
Harry George Oman (Adopted son of Regina and Shane ):
+A major Jock, who like his mom, uses sports as a way of relieving stress.
+Can be hella intimidating but would never bully someone since his mom learned from her past mistakes and taught him better than that.
+ Also Has a major vengefull streak.
+Also highly observer/this nigga is in no way in hell oblivious like his canon self.
+ an extremely good liar and manipulator.
+Extremely confortable in the leadership role.
+Slytherin through and through.
+takes care and runes.
+ grows up to become a professional quidditch player.
+Recomended ships: Drary, Blarry, Hinny, Haphne, Hansy, Hastoria.
Harry Wieners (Song of Gretchen and...someone):
+Major gossiper. his mom is Gretchen afterall.
+ also Highly observer/this nigga is in no way in hell oblivious like his canon self.
+also an extremely good liar and manipulator.
+Fluent in Vietnamese thanks to his mom.
+ Takes Ancient Runes as one of his electives.
+ Grows up to become a jornalist ( something his canon self would probably never do but it's dowright perfect for him)
+Slytherin through and through.
+Recomended ships: same as Harry George Oman but with the inclusion of Harvati and whatever the name of Harry/Lavander Brown ship is.
Harry James Smith ( Adopted son of Karen Smith and someone....Her cousin Seth? idk you get to choose):
+Extremely Responsable.
+Does the taxes for his mom, since i'd rekon she wouldn't know how.
+Major Mother Hen.
+ Friends with everyone
+As oblivious as his canon self, not due to being unobservant but to often being to distracted thinking about other things.
+Either a Puff or a Raven. Not Slytherin or Ravenclaw though.
+Takes care and Artimancy.
+Grows up to become a teacher or a healer.
+Will cut ties with anyone that calls his mom stupid or anything or the sort.
+Recomended ships: Harmony,Huna,Hinny, Hedric.
You can also make Harry be adpted by two plastics at once, in wich case the traits will be combined.
++++++++++Bonus:
Harry James Ian ( Adopted son of Janis Ian and Kevin):
+Major Goth
+ Also Crazy good at math.
+Good at making plans that actually work.
+Loves pranks.
+Hates bullying but has a bit of a mean streak.
+ Also Takes Artimancy.
++ also Highly observer/this nigga is in no way in hell oblivious like his canon self.
+Goes on to do something in the ministry(you get to choose)
+Gryffindor through and through.
+Recomended ships: Hinny,Huna, Hedric.
Harry Cocco ( Glenn Cocco and Someone):
+Glenn Cocco is a blank slot so in this case the sky is the limit.

what is your Remadora lives theories what do you think they did after the war
I tend to flit between two different ones. Both include Remus working at Hogwarts again. You can pry professor lupin from cold dead hands.
I pretty much always see them going to live in hogsmeade or close by, Remus taking up the professor role again. He doesn’t go back straight away, Minerva has to ask him multiple times in a row but he eventually caves.
Then I sometimes have Dora going back to the ministry. Head auror, assisting Kingsley in revoking all anti werewolf laws and making wolfsbane more accessible, clearing Sirius name for good.
Or
I go for my more emotionally and mentally damaged Dora who can’t go back to the ministry because it’s too much. She chooses the more relaxing and calm life after the war. They still stay in hogsmeade. Remus still at Hogwarts. She goes to work in Zonkos or honeydukes, they let her bring Teddy with her sometimes. Something that’s not even remotely taxing, she needs to recover and have calm days. Not ministry days.

Yuujin and self-sacrifice in ep 31-32
Okay, so we know that Minerva—or whoever’s been giving out AppDrives to our cast, who is vetted and chosen specifically—makes demands of the children to have positive development, and her verdict on Yuujin is that his best self is someone who'd be willing to give up his life to save a friend.
As we’ve seen with most of the other children, the demands of Minerva helps bring out admirable traits of their existing personality: Haru’s compassion and kindness makes him a worthy protagonist when he is pushed to take action; Eri works hard and has the drive to go after what she wants wholeheartedly once she gets the opportunity; Astra has the determination to see his vision through once he realizes what he wants. The questions Minerva asks of them requires them saying “Yes” to her, in order to nurture the existing admirable traits they possess and prove worthy of an AppDrive. (The only exception so far is Rei, whose question demands him to answer “No”—he has to move away from his unhealthy loner tendencies.)
Minerva too requires a “Yes” from Yuujin, and like the other kids, the trait she requires of him already exists: a tendency towards self-sacrifice. This trait is reinforced by Minerva, both because her demand of him is the only one to explicitly require giving up his own life for his friend(s), and also because he’s the only one who has an AppDrive Duo so far—a device which requires him to inject his own lifeforce to empower his buddy in battle.
Aside from things that are in Minerva’s control, he likes putting himself between the threat and his friends, which Haru acknowledges:
Also, while Offmon gnawing on his arm (and head) is portrayed as a harmless cute quirk for the most part, we know those bites are strong enough to leave marks:
Offmon is actively distressed at the injury he inflicted on Yuujin, but Yuujin reassures him that it’s fine. He never asks Offmon to stop gnawing on him, because he knows that 1) Offmon didn’t mean to hurt him, and more importantly 2) if chewing on him helps Offmon calm down, he’s fine with letting Offmon continue—not only is he fine with getting hurt in service of a friend, there’s an implication that he’s cool with a friend hurting him if it ultimately helps said friend (with the caveat that the friend’s primary goal isn’t hurting him, with the hurt inflicted being a by-product).
Aside from the above example, we’ve also seen Yuujin being extremely tolerant of Offmon chewing on him in earlier episodes even though it causes minor discomfort (implied when Offmon bites Haru), which further suggests that Yuujin is cool with Offmon causing him discomfort, as long as Offmon feels better doing it:
The one time so far that we see Yuujin possibly being less tolerant of it, his priority is still reassuring Offmon—I say “possibly”, because we never get a clear indication that he’s actually all that annoyed; his tone here sounds like how someone would try to calm an upset infant down:
This attitude of “my partner’s well-being comes first” is carried through to when Offmon becomes Shutmon, and the chomp is no longer quite so harmless:
It’s a nice thing to do—Offmon clearly didn’t mean to harm him and is, again, actively distressed, so Yuujin ignoring his wounds to make sure Offmon is okay makes sense. However, i do wonder if the pattern of Yuujin putting priority on looking after others before tending to his wounds (or just straight up ignoring his wounds) will continue as the series goes on.
EDIT: in ep 34 when the gang visits Tomorrowland and—surprise surprise—Leviathan’s agents wreck havoc, Yuujin’s heroic nature is once again on display, triggering the Overdrive function:
It’s shown that Overdrive is visibly taxing, to the extent that Haru and co. seems a little concerned about Yuujin—and Yuujin, as he’s wont to do, brushes his own discomfort off to reassure his friends.
Again, it’s significant that Yuujin is the only one who could perform the Overdrive function at this point, giving part of his own power or lifeforce to empower his buddy. None of the other AppDrivers can share (or sacrifice) their own power the same way Yuujin can (even if they wanted to), at least for now.
Since joining the team, we’ve seen Yuujin exhibiting an existing tendency to put himself in harm’s way in order to protect his friends, and i’m interested to see where Appmon takes it. From Minerva’s point of view, this tendency is not unhealthy (unlike Rei’s tendency to shut others out and go it alone, which is something to be 'corrected'), but in fact something to be encouraged—with the end goal being a sacrifice that ends in his death. However, are Yuujin’s self-sacrificial tendencies ultimately good for his character development? Or are his instincts good for “a protagonist”—the kind that Haru looks up to—but less so for “a person”? (And, since the show heavily implies that he’s not human, how ‘genuine’ are those instincts? If he exhibit those qualities, does it matter that it’s by design rather than having been developed ‘organically’? Will further interaction with Hari and co. have an impact on these tendencies/kick off some 'organic' development?) If self-sacrifice is tied to what makes a great protagonist, then how does that intersect with Haru’s personal growth to become a worthy protagonist?
We’ve seen Yuujin save Haru and co. multiple times, but we also know that Yuujin is saved by Haru, both on an emotional level and on a physical level. Will Yuujin’s self-sacrificial tendencies mean he’ll get into trouble that he ultimately needs Haru to save him from? If so, is Minerva’s task to him—that he must give up his life to protect his friend—ultimately less about Yuujin, and more about Haru’s growth?
All these are questions I’m excited to find out the answers to.

💞 HP Soulmates: Fated 2 Be - Week 2 Roundup 💞
It's the end of our second week of posting, and wow, what a fantastic week it's been! Here are all the soulmates fics from Week 2:
💞 [FIC] Dizzy Edge of Heaven 💞 (E, Draco/Hermione, 9.8k)
Draco has just been traded from the Bulgarian National team to the Wimbourne Wasps. When moving into his new flat he hears his neighbor singing The Cure’s Just Like Heaven, and is immediately hit with a vision (or version) of their life together. He doesn’t believe in Divination, and has obviously been hit with one too many bludgers. The more time he spends around his new neighbor, the more he wants it to be true.
OR
The canon divergent telling of Draco Malfoy, a former Durmstran student, current Quidditch star, meeting Hermione Granger for the first time and being instantly unsure if he's just incredibly smitten or he's possibly found his soulmate.
💞 [FIC] The Punch That Made a Mark 💞 (T, Draco/Hermione, 1.2k)
His Godfather’s eyes went wide with shock as if he noticed the soulmate mark right on his nose where Granger punched him.
“Who is your soulmate?”
Draco gulped nervously at his Godfather. He took too long to answer because his Godfather held his shoulders and shook him.
“Speak, boy!”
“Granger,” Draco mumbled.
“Can you please speak louder, Draco,” his Godfather sighed. “Granger! Okay?” Draco sighed looking at his Godfather frantically.
💞 [FIC] breakable heaven 💞 (M, James/Sirius, 7.8k)
James lies comatose in the hospital wing with a curse that can be cured by his soulmate's kiss. Unlike fairytales, however, in life the story doesn't end with learning your soulmate's identity... and true love's course doesn't always run smoothly.
💞 [FIC] Sheltered in Black Wings 💞 (T, Narcissa/Remus, 2.4k)
Sometimes Narcissa wondered what her life might have been like without the bonds she held. And sometimes she had nightmares about the same. She would do whatever it took to protect her family and her people.
💞 [FIC] Fireflies 💞 (E, James/Regulus, 26.9k)
James’s fingers suddenly brush against his skin, touching the very top of Regulus’s spine.
“This,” James says, his touch featherlight as it ghosts over Regulus’s skin, making it tingle in the most peculiar way. “It’s a lovely tattoo. Almost like antlers. When did you get it?”
Regulus can’t speak.
This can’t be possible.
Of all people—why James Potter?
Still, his mother’s words echo in his head. Every member of the Noble and Most Ancient House of Black has a soul mark. A tattoo that appears at birth and can only be seen by their soulmate.
💞 [FIC] rough around the edges (but the edges look good) 💞 (G, Marcus/Oliver, 8.5k)
oliver wood is obsessed with 2 things: quidditch, and marcus flint. and his soulmark will be, must be, awakened by marcus flint's first words—if only he could get the surly slytherin to talk to him...
💞 [FIC] Fifteen Years of Preparation 💞 (M, Marcus/Percy, 3.3k)
Percy wasn’t ready. A fact that threw him off, regardless of the cause. Because Percy was always ready. It was a fact of life, a tenet that he lived by. The situation was made even worse by the sheer amount of time that he’d had to prepare. Fifteen years to be precise. But together, they would fix it.
💞 [ART] The Petals Within Me 💞 (M, Draco/Harry, Digital Art)
The fine lines between love and lust, passion and possession, the want with the distrust.
💞 [FIC] Expiration of a Summer's Rose 💞 (M, Draco/Harry, 60.0k)
Draco returns to England ten years after the war. Many things are different, but Harry is the same. But what does Harry have to do with Draco's compelling new interest in botany? After an unexpected event disrupts the life Draco has built for himself, he slowly finds out. A hanahaki case fic
💞 [FIC] Of Kittens and Serpents 💞 (T, Minerva/Poppy, 6.2k)
Navigating a relationship as teachers can be taxing, more so if one of your students is Harry Potter.
💞 [FIC] Betrothal, Brothers, and Bullshit 💞 (E, femslash!Sirius/Remus, 3.6k)
Lesbian Wolfstar. Remus never went to Hogwarts, and she’s getting rather paranoid about the Grim that keeps following her everywhere.

Guilliman returns from chasing off Sister of Battle with a hose. "Now where was I? Ah yes, nice relaxing tax reports." He chuckles and sits down at his desk.
Minerva arranges for the wet ladies to get warm towels and hot coca, because they look sad now.

THE FEAR ~
NAME. UTP
AGE & BIRTH DATE. UTP
SPECIES. Cubi
FACTION. Merchant's Guild
OCCUPATION. UTP
Hand over hand, that’s what they always said. The needle pulls the thread, the staystich holds it all together, and then you begin again. They were always more patient than you, pricked fingers and shaky hands, you didn’t know how they did it but they always seemed to manage it in the end. A taxing process that procured immaculate results, simple threads pulled into intricate designs; this was the way the world worked. This was the way the fates tied everyone together, you grew up on those stories, you grew up learning about Gods and men, about the Blight and the heroes of old. You used to get lost in these tales as you stitched away and tried to breath life into the embroidered fables you knit and wove.
Somehow, someway, you crossed the threshold between that novice sitting on another knee, and someone who was taking over the shop after they were gone. If you had one wish, no, not a wish, if you had one prayer it was that you’d be recognized for all that you had done. You wanted to be seen, to be respected, and to be pulled into one of these adventures of your own. Minerva whispered across the veil, your tale had begun, that you could spin straw into gold, you had no magic to speak of and you dismissed the dream as nothing but a work of an active imagination. You knew better, you knew in your heart that it was true, but if you believed that Minerva had chosen you, then that meant your simple life had drawn to an end. You were afraid, and for that, you were cursed.
