Penny For Your Thoughts (II)
Pairing: Young!Sirius Black x Reader
Series Summary: Y/N Y/L/N has lived in the Potter household since she was eight years old. Even amongst the Potters, whom she knew loved her, she has never felt truly accepted, never felt like anything other than a burden. Until she went to Hogwarts. For the first time she had friends who weren’t forced to act as such, she had a family who loved her by choice. There, she met Sirius, the first and only person to ever truly understand what she was going through, to listen to her and not judge.
Chapter Warnings: Ummm not sure - maybe swearing?
A/N: And here’s part two! I hope you enjoy - here you’ll meet some of my OCs created for the series, characters who I genuinely love a lot so I hope you also like them! Please let me know what you think - especially if you’re on the taglist, hearing your comments always inspires me to keep on writing, so please do let me know. If you wish to be added to the taglist send me an ASK, replies to the parts asking to be added onto it won’t be responded to
Tumblr media
“I told you - I have the worst sense of direction!” Y/N groaned as herself and Beatrice managed to take another wrong turn on their way to the Great Hall for breakfast.
“I thought you were exaggerating or - or being modest!” Beatrice laughed, nudging into her gently with her elbow. Y/N pulled a face at her.
“That would be rather Hufflepuff of me, wouldn’t it?” 
“Hey - this looks familiar!” Beatrice exclaimed as they turned another corner and Y/N wrinkled her nose, taking in the painting of a fruit bowl that they had stumbled across.
“B?”
“Yeah?”
“We’re back by the kitchens - we’re back where we started.”
“What’re you two doing here?” They turned to face back down the hallway where the Hufflepuff common room was located hidden behind a pile of barrels. Liane, Jessica and Eric were approaching them, grinning at their obviously lost friends.
“Waiting for you?” Y/N suggested.
“Forget the way to the Great Hall?” Eric teased.
“Maybe a little,” Y/N agreed.  The group continued on, led by Jessica who regularly looked over her shoulder as though to check that her newfound friends were still following her, worried that they may disappear.
“It’s a good thing we left so early this morning,” Beatrice commented to Y/N. “Otherwise we might not have made it to breakfast in time.”
“Why did you leave so early?” Liane asked as they entered into the Great Hall, which was already at least half full with students eating their breakfast.
“I was aware I’d get lost - B just came along for the ride.” Beatrice nodded solemnly at those words as they found themselves seats at the Hufflepuff table.
“I was under the impression that she knew what she was doing,” she admitted. “And I’m ashamed to admit that.”
“You’ve known me less than twenty four hours!” Y/N protested. “For all you know, I could have planned all of that.”
“Why would you have planned getting lost on the way to breakfast?” Beatrice asked in bewilderment.
“Oh, yeah, I’ve known you for less than twenty four hours and you expect me to spill my master plan to you,” Y/N scoffed.
Eric was watching the two girls interact, his brow scrunched together in confusion but a twinkle in his eyes that showed he was more amused than anything else.
“You’re both rather strange.” 
“Well that’s just rude,” Beatrice huffed, pouring herself some juice as Y/N picked up the water pitcher. 
“Do you think the professors will be nice?” Jessica blurted out the words, cutting off their conversation. Two spots of pink appeared on her cheeks when all four of them turned to face her. “Sorry,” she muttered, looking down at her plate. 
“You remember what Mum said, Jess,” Eric said calmly. “When she was here she loved all the teachers - she was even taught by McGonagall and Flitwick.”
“Who are they?” Beatrice frowned and quickly added: “my parents didn’t much like talking about Hogwarts,” Y/N thought she saw a hint of embarrassment in her expression and she noted how Beatrice refused to meet any of their eyes.
“McGonagall teaches transfiguration and Flitwick teaches charms,” Liane explained, buttering a piece of toast. “My parents told me that McGonagall’s a complete hard-ass though,” she added and Y/N saw Jessica’s eyes widen.
“Really?” Beatrice asked, staring at Liane.
“Yeah - really strict, apparently,” she confirmed. “Especially if you’re not in her house.”
“That’s not true,” Eric sighed, shaking his head. “The teachers aren’t allowed to favour those in their house,” he insisted but Liane shook her head defiantly.
“None of the teachers stick to that! All the heads of house are lenient towards their own students!”
“So d’ya think Sprout’ll give us a load of house points for like… breathing?” Beatrice asked and she shared an amused look with Y/N.
“Alright - laugh all you want now, we’ll see who’s right,” Liane scoffed, but there was traces of laughter in her voice.
“What do you think we’ll have today?” Jessica asked in her quiet, soft voice, her nerves about their first day seeming to override the shyness that she had shown the previous evening.
“I hope we have Potions,” Liane said eagerly, her voice completely changing from her previous tone of disbelief.
“Do you think you’ll be good at it?” Beatrice asked interestedly.
“My Dad’s fantastic at brewing potions - Mum says that he’s been waiting for me to go to Hogwarts so that he can help me learn how to properly do them myself,” Liane explained through a bite of toast.
“I heard that it was a really hard subject,” Jessica worried.
“I’m sure you’ll be fine,” Y/N mustered up as much of a reassuring smile as she could manage. “What’re you looking forward to?” Jessica didn’t reply immediately, clearly thinking carefully about the question.
 “I think I’ll enjoy herbology,” she decided, nodding her head to confirm her thought. Beside Y/N, Beatrice completely lit up in delight.
“Really? I think I will too - I used to love gardening when I was at home!” She enthused. Jessica brightened at that and it wasn’t long before the two of them were talking excitedly about what they were most looking forward to studying - both of them, apparently, having already read through the text book that had been assigned for their year.
“What about you, then?”
“Care of Magical Creatures,” Y/N’s response to Liane’s question was immediate, the words out her mouth before she had a chance even to think about them.
“But… we can’t study that yet,” Liane pointed out, raising her eyebrows and Y/N let out a sad sigh, nodding her head.
“I know - sucks, doesn’t it?”
“I don’t think I’ll be taking it,” Liane admitted with a slight shiver. Y/N frowned at her, confused, and her new friend offered her an apologetic smile. “I’m not… great with animals. They make me nervous.”
“All animals?” Y/N questioned in disbelief.
“Pretty much - they don’t trust me, I think. And so I also don’t trust them. We’ve got a mutual understanding going on.”
“It’s okay, I’ll change that,” Y/N reassured her with a mischievous smile. “I’ve been told I can be rather persuasive.”
“Why does that sound like a threat?” Y/N ignored Liane’s sigh and looked over at Eric. 
“What about you?” She inquired, but Eric wasn’t listening and was instead looking at his sister and Beatrice with what was almost an expression of concern that Y/N didn’t quite understand. “Eric?”
“What, sorry?” He was snapped back into the present, trying his best to feign attentiveness as he returned to the conversation.
“What subject are you excited for?” Liane repeated, rolling her eyes a little and running a hand through her scarlet hair, pushing it away from her face.
“Well… everyone’s excited for Defence Against the Dark Arts, right?” He pointed out with a ‘duh’ expression. 
Their conversation speculating over their new classes carried them to the end of breakfast, the food disappearing from the platters in front of them, the heads of house descending from the professors table at the front of the hall all carrying piles of parchment. 
Professor Sprout was a squat woman with greying curly hair with a tattered wizards hat perched on top. Her fingernails had dirt underneath and the skin of her hands looked rough to Y/N’s eyes, presumably from the many hours she spent outside in the Greenhouses. Her eyes, despite being tired-looking, were warm and welcoming, smile lines beginning to be etched into the skin around them.
She practically beamed at Y/N and her fellow first years.
“I didn’t get to say it last night - but welcome all of you to Hufflepuff!” Her words caused quiet cheers and giggles from the first years surrounding them. A freckled boy that Y/N didn’t know the name off looked as though he was going to pass out from joy. “For anyone who doesn’t know - I’m Professor Sprout. Your head of House and also your Herbology teacher!” Jessica and Beatrice exchanged yet another excited look.
Sprout handed out the parchment, one to each student, asking each for their name, welcoming them to her house.
“And your name?”
“I’m Y/N, Professor, Y/N Y/L/N,” she smiled. Professor Sprout’s face fell just a little and she nodded, her warm eyes softening even further.
“It’s lovely to meet you - welcome to Hufflepuff,” she said, her voice more gentle than it had been when talking to the other first years.Y/N took her timetable from her, staring down at the little squares labelled with her lessons, not wanting to meet the inquiring gazes of her new friends who Y/N could tell had picked up on Sprout’s change in mood.
“Charms first,” Y/N muttered, reading the writing. “And then Herbology,” she looked at Beatrice who was watching her carefully. “Pretty ideal for you, huh?”
Beatrice cracked a smile and nodded her head.
“Alright - we should probably get going. With Y/N’s complete lack of any sense of direction at all it’ll take us a good fifteen to thirty minutes to find the classroom,” Beatrice declared, standing up and stretching her arms out, smirking at her new friend who rolled her eyes, standing up as well.
“Well Jess has a thestral’s sense of direction so I’m sure we can use her as a guide.”
“I don’t…. understand?” Jessica asked, looking at Y/N with an apprehensive expression.
“It was a compliment,” Y/N assured her as their little group of friends made their way out of the Great Hall, clutching at their timetables. Y/N’s heart was racing with nerves, though she didn’t want to admit it aloud.
They walked together to charms, speculating excitedly about what they thought the lesson could hold for them, what Flitwick had in store to teach them. 
Unsurprisingly, considering how early they had left from breakfast, they were the first ones to find the classroom and lined up outside it, Liane talking animatedly about the different charms that she had already read up about. 
“Who do we have it with, anyway?” Eric asked, leaning against the wall.
Y/N glanced down at the timetable still clutched in her hands and her heart leapt in her chest.
“The Gryffindors,” she relayed, beaming. 
“Why’re you so pleased?” Beatrice asked.
“I already know some of them!”
“You already have other friends?” Beatrice gasped in feigned offence.
“What can I say? People love me.”
“Hey Y/N,” Lily tapped Y/N on her shoulder, who whirled around to grin at her.
“Hi! How are you?” 
“Good thanks,” Lily grinned. “How was your first night?”
“It was fun! Oh!” Y/N turned back to her group of Hufflepuff friends. “This is Beatrice, Eric, Jessica and Liane.” They waved at the Gryffindor girl, whose smile seemed to become shyer with the introduction. “And this is Lily - we met on the platform yesterday and sat together on the train.”
“Nice to meet you,” Lily said, taking Beatrice’s hand.
“Who’re your friends?” Y/N whispered to Lily, looking over at the three other girls dressed in red-hooded robes that had arrived with Lily.
Lily giggled at Y/N’s lowered tone.
“That’s Marlene, next to her is Alice and then that’s Dorcas.” Lily introduced quietly, pointing at each girl in turn. Y/N nodded her head but didn’t get a chance to respond further as James’ booming voice rang out from down the corridor, where he had just turned the corner to the hallway where the charms class was located.
“Y/N! Hufflepuff! Mum called it! Have you written to tell her yet?”
Y/N let out a heavy sigh, removing herself from the company of her friends and walked towards James, who was accompanied by a group of boys - one of whom she recognised from the platform to be Frank Longbottom.
“I haven’t, no - did you write to let them know you’re in Gryffindor?” 
“As if they need the confirmation,” James scoffed. 
“Wait - what do you mean your mum called it?” Y/N’s brows furrowed together as she registered what else James had said. 
“Ages ago! When you first-” James caught himself, “when you first started to ask about the House system. She told me and Dad that she reckoned you’d be a Hufflepuff.”
“She never told me that,” Y/N frowned and James shrugged.
“Well she told me,” Y/N gave him a withering look.
“I figured,” she met Sirius’ eyes over James’ shoulder and he gave her the same cocky smirk that Y/N was beginning to realise was a near-permanent fixture for him.
“Hey,” he nodded at her.
“Gryffindor, huh?” Sirius’ smirk seemed to fall briefly, a slightly worried look on his face as he responded, though he tried to cover it with a poor substitute of his previous confidence.
“My Mum’ll be so proud.” James snickered, glancing at his new friend.
“These are our other dormmates, by the way,” James said, gesturing to the other three boys who had joined in with the conversation held by the other Hufflepuff boys who had turned up shortly after the Gryffindors. “That’s Remus, Peter and - you remember Dad talking about Frank?”
“Your dad was talking about me?” Frank asked, breaking out of the conversation to shoot a confused look at James and Y/N.
“Mine was telling us that he went to school with your Mum,” James explained cheerfully, no hint of the embarrassment that Y/N was feeling having been caught in such an odd conversation. 
“Right…” there was still an air of unsureness in Frank’s voice.
“How was your first night anyway? You doing okay?” James lowered his voice a little, clearly knowing that Y/N wouldn’t want for their classmates to overhear him checking up on her. “You sleep okay?” He added knowingly.
“It was fine, James - I’m fine, I promise,” Y/N said with a smile and gave a half shrug, glancing back to her new friends. “They all seem really lovely.”
“I’m glad,” James smiled, nudging her shoulder with his. “And last night - you didn't…?”
“No - not last night,” she confirmed. Y/N suddenly looked to Sirius, who she realised had been standing with them as they spoke, looking interested. “I snore,” was the first thing she could think of as an explanation. 
Sirius started to laugh and Y/N’s embarrassment washed over her, not that she had time to dwell on it when Beatrice grabbed her arm and tugged her towards the classroom that Professor Flitwick had just entered into.
“You’ll sit with me, right?”
They found a table together in the middle of the classroom, Y/N sliding into the chair nearest the window, Liane and Jessica sitting in the row in front of them, Eric joining a fellow Hufflepuff boy at the table beside them. It was no surprise at all to Y/N that James and his new friends took seats right at the back of the classroom.
“Who was that?” Beatrice whispered to her as Flitwick started his lecture.
“I’m trying to listen,” Y/N returned and Beatrice fell silent.
“No you’re not - you’re doodling!” Beatrice accused, her voice still too low to be heard by anyone other than Y/N.
“Relevant doodling?” Y/N offered and Beatrice gave her a withering look, not bothering to reply further than that. 
“Now it’s over to you to have a go! Remember - swish and flick!” Flitwick announced, clapping his hands cheerfully.
“Any chance you were actually paying proper attention?” Y/N asked Beatrice as Flitwick waved his wand and feathers flew across the room to land one in front of each student.
“The levitating charm,” Lily whispered from the table behind them. Y/N looked over her shoulder at the Gryffindor girl who was smiling. “You know - Wingardium Leviosa.”
“Thanks,” Y/N whispered in return. 
“But who is he?” Beatrice repeated again, the classroom filling with noise as the eager First Years began to cast their first spells. Y/N got her own out of her robes and shrugged nonchalantly.
“Just a guy I grew up with - our parents were friends.”

1. What takes too much of your time?
Working, writing, dancing. 
2. What makes your day better?
Random things, honestly. Honestly, the other day I saw a man run after his kid after they got out of the car just to give him a hug before going to school - and I melted. But generally speaking, my family, my boyfriend, my pets and good music.
3. What’s the best thing that happened to you today?
Today? I’ve only been awake for two and a half hours, but maybe that I got my winged eyeliner right in one go. 
4. What fictional place would you like to go to?
World of Spirited Away, or Howl’s Moving Castle, or Ponyo, or anything Gbihli related it would seem...

7. Have you ever experienced sleep paralysis?
Yep, not as often as I used to. But it’s fucking terrifying every time it happens. 
8. What musician inspired you the most?
Probably Queen and Michael Jackson growing up. Anytime anyone asks that ‘if you could have dinner with any musician” or “if you could see any musician perform live” its always Queen. Without a second’s thought, it’s always Queen. 
9. Have you ever fallen in love?
Three times exactly. 
10. What’s your dream date?
Something understated where we can get to know each other. Whether it’s something chill, like a cafe date, or something fun, like an arcade or carnival; if there’s vibes and chemistry, then I’m all for it. Don’t give me anything of grandeur on the first date, I’ll just think you’re a pompous asshole. 
11. What do others notice about you?
That I can be quite hyper and weird. First to break the ice in hard situations. Essentially the first to jump. 
And that I have a lot of love to give. A lot. You have 100% of my trust at the start, its then you’re job to keep it. 
12. What is an annoying habit you have?
I take on too much and don’t finish them to the fullest. And I don’t put away clean laundry straight away and end up with 2/3 of my closet in a pile. 
13. Do you still talk to your first love?
Well he recently got married, so that’s a hard no. 
14. How many ex’s do you have?
5
15. How many songs are in your playlist?
I don’t know. Probably close to 10k. My music taste is beyond eclectic and the music I listen to changes on the daily, hourly... you get my point. 
16. What instruments can you play?
Piano. Guitar. Bass and Ukelele. 
17. Who do you have the most pictures of?
On my phone? Lim Jaebeom....

19. What is your zodiac?
Cancer
20. Do you relate to it?
I relate to my Myer Briggs more. ENFP  But I found this online and will highlight the things relevant to me..

Weaknesses: Moody, pessimistic, suspicious, manipulative, insecure
Cancer likes: Art, home-based hobbies, relaxing near or in water, helping loved ones, a good meal with friends
Cancer dislikes: Strangers, any criticism of Mom, revealing of personal life
21. What is happiness to you?
My family, my boyfriend, my friends, my pets, succeeding in a goal and food. 
22. Are you going through anything right now?
Yup. 
23. What’s the worst decision you’ve ever made?
Not being better with money a few years ago. And now I’m really fucking suffering. 
24. What’s your favourite store?
There’s a strip of stores near my work that is practically Korean beauty, fashion and Japanese streetwear. And I frequent that strip a lot. (I seem to always be ironically dressed by Jaebeom, even though I’m older and have rocked my style for close to 16 years.... )
25. What’s your opinion on abortion?
It’s a personal choice. But I am of the camp of if you’re a firm believer that you won’t be able to take care of that child, or it’s absolutely the wrong time for you have a child, then you should not let that child suffer. I’ve had very long discussions with my partner about it, and we both believe that if it’s right, then it’s right. 
26. Do you keep a bucket list?
Not really. I’m more of the ‘if you want to do it, then do it’ mentality. I can be very narrow minded.

35. What job/career do most people say would suit you?

40. Who was the worst friend you ever had? Oh man I’ve had a lot of shitty friends, but one of them definetely takes the price. We had that kind of friendship where you joke around constantly, and it was all fun. Until after a few months where I could sense a change in the over all atmosphere of our frienship. The jokes became tougher and more and more ruthless. In the last few months he was basically bullying me, giving me shit for everything I did. He made fun of my music taste, my style, my hair, my face, my personality, everything. He basically broke my confidence to a point where I tried changing the way I was for him to not pick on me. I became super depressed and I was close to taking my own life several times. People around me started noticing that he was bullying me, and when they asked me about it, I just told them it was nothing and that I was just being sensitive if I felt offended about what he told me. I remember one morning where he was picking at me, and I told him I was feeling like shit and that my mental health was doing really bad, and I actually apologized for it. I told him I was sorry for being quiet, when my mind was just spinning around the thought of not wanting to live. He told me that it wasn’t strange, that I was just being boring as usual. At that point, I understood that he didn’t give a shit about me, and I started avoiding him. Nowadays, he’s still mad at me. According to him, I betrayed him by starting to avoid him. He’s a dick, to say the least.<< DUDE. I had a friend just like this in high school. She was a girl but was the exact same way. Always making rude jokes about my appearance in public, specifically my small breasts, and making fun of literally everything I did, and then would tell me I was being dramatic whenever I got mad at her for it. Like, I understand friends joking around with each other about things like that every and now and then, but this was literally ALL. THE. TIME. She’d tell me to stop being so sensitive and take a joke. She also would tell me I had no right to feel depressed or sad because I had a good life instead of understanding and comforting me like a decent fucking person, and recognizing that mental health issues affect everyone. So when I finally stopped hanging out with her, she got pissed and removed me as a friend from Facebook. Good riddance.
