Day 15 of @hinnymicrofic, posted a few days late. Busy weekends, and all that.
“Aha!” Ginny exclaims suddenly, triumphant. “I found it!”
Harry attempts to mask his amusement. She’s clasping his palm in one of her small, freckled hands, while diligently referencing Unfogging the Future, trailing her finger along the text with the other.
“This is your head line,” Ginny says, pointing to the faint line running horizontally somewhere in the vicinity of the center of his palm. “Awfully short, don’t you think?”
Harry squints at the line, and then back up to the twisted line of her smirk. “What’s short supposed to mean, then?”
Ginny looks down at the textbook and reads, “Those with below-average head lines tend to be incredibly thick. They befriend lanky red-headed gits, play Seeker, and they often don’t notice when girls give them hundreds of opportunities to–”
“That’s what the book says, does it?”
“It’s all here, Harry. Who am I to question fate?”
“You shit.”
Ginny snickers and releases his hand, which Harry regrets immediately. “Divination is such rubbish, I can’t believe an examiner is going to actually evaluate me on this.”
“Ron and I just made things up,” Harry remembers. “Seemed to go fine.”
“Didn’t you get a P?”
“Yep,” Harry says unconcernedly, lifting her hand and examining her palm as though reading it. “But then we got to drop it altogether.”
“Hm,” Ginny considers. “Maybe your head line is longer than I thought.”
Her hands are small, almost delicate looking. He glances at the textbook, sees a diagram with lines like “heart” and “marriage” and “life” that can allegedly be foretold. He has a brief, cynical moment where he wonders how short those lines are on his palm, and then feels grateful Ginny hadn’t mentioned it. Hadn’t mentioned any of the sticky ones, really.
“If you squint really hard you can see my money line,” Ginny jokes. “It says I have nine sickles.”
He looks up at her, strangely overcome with the sensation of being understood; that she’d know without needing to explain how difficult it would be for him to talk about an uncertain future, that she’d gravitate toward taking the piss and joking about sickles to spare him.
“I’ve got a prediction,” Harry says.
“Oh yes?”
I’ll never get over you. “You’re going to get a D in Divination.”
She laughs in that unrestrained way she has, and Harry wonders if what he’s found with her has etched itself into his palm, something permanent, irrefutable. He can’t bear to check.

Jake & Amy + Chandler & Monica - parallels
Jace stepped forward first, in a gear jacket printed with golden runes, and held out a hand to Alec. “I stand as suggenes to Alexander Lightwood,” he said with pride. Magnus felt about Jace the way he had felt about many Shadowhunters over the years, Fairchilds and Herondales and Carstairs and others: fondness and faint exasperation. But in moments like this, when Jace’s love for Alec shone true and untrammeled, he felt only gratitude and affection. Alec took Jace’s hand and they began to walk the pathway of light. Magnus made to follow them, warlocks having no tradition of suggenes—a companion to the altar—but Catarina stepped forward, smiling, and took his arm. “I fought our mutual green frenemy for the privilege of escorting you,” she said, indicating a fulminating Ragnor with a tilt of her head. “Come on, now—you don’t think I’d let you approach the altar alone? What if you got cold feet and ran off?” Magnus chuckled as they passed by familiar faces: Maia and Bat, Lily wearing a tipsy crown of flowers, Helen and Aline whistling and clapping. Helen had a blue band around her wrist as well as gold runes on her clothes; so did Mark. “My feet have never been warmer,” Magnus said. “They’re positively toasty.” She smiled at him. “No doubts?” They had reached the end of the lighted path. Alec stood waiting, Jace beside him on the platform. Behind them was the ocean, stretching out silvery-blue as Magnus’s magic, all the way to the horizon. Their closest friends ringed the platform—Clary with her arms full of blue and yellow flowers, Isabelle carrying Max and sniffling back tears, Simon alight and smiling, Maryse with Rafe by her side: he looked solemn, as if aware of the significance of the occasion. Jia Penhallow stood where a priest would stand in a mundane ceremony, the Codex in her hand. They had all donned shawls or light jackets of silk, runed in gold; silk banners hung suspended in the sky, printed with runes of love and faith, commitment and family. Magnus glanced down at Catarina. “No doubts,” he said. She squeezed his hand and went to stand beside Jia. There was a second ring around the platform: The Blackthorns and their friends were all there, clustered in close. Julian smiled his slow quiet smile at Magnus; Emma glowed with happiness as Magnus crossed the wooden platform and took his place opposite Alec. Alec held his hands out, and Magnus took them. He looked into Alec’s blue eyes, the precise color of his own magic, and felt a great calm descend over him, a peace beyond all other peace he had ever known. No doubts. Magnus didn’t need to search his soul. He’d searched it a thousand times, ten thousand, in the years he’d known Alec. Not because he doubted, but because it shocked him so much that he didn’t. In all his life, he had never known such surety. He had lived happily and had no regrets, he had made poetry out of wondering and wandering, had lived untethered and gloried in freedom. Then Magnus had met Alec. He had felt drawn to him in a way he couldn’t have explained or anticipated: He had wanted to see Alec smile, to see him be happy. He had watched Alec turn from a shy boy with secrets to a proud man who faced the world openly and unafraid. Alec had given him the gift of faith, a faith that Magnus was strong enough to make not just Alec happy, but a whole family happy. And in their happiness, Magnus had felt himself not just free, but surrounded by an unimaginable glory. Some might have called it the presence of God. Magnus just thought of it as Alexander Gideon Lightwood.

Walburga: Sirius, Get this piece of trash out of the dining room!
Sirius: (to Bellatrix)
You heard her, move it
The last train out of Newcastle was almost empty. It rattled across the large bridges over the black water of the Tyne, and for the most part was quiet, just one or two people per carriage, snoozing in their seats or tapping away on laptops, ignoring the ping of the intercom and the Geordie-accented voice announcing the stops.
The exception to this was the very last carriage, where a large family was making a lot of noise indeed. Dressed head to toe in green and draped in scarves and flags and badges with words like 'Harpies rangers!' and 'These witches have talons!', they stretched across two table seats and the aisles behind too, the tables themselves laden with drinks and tubs of food bought last minute from the M&S in the station.
'-And then I can't believe you just openly told me it's rude to stare!' Albus was bursting out furiously at his father. The rest of the family was roaring with laughter, and Al was occasionally laughing too, though his face was as red as his mother's hair.
'It is rude to stare!' Harry replied, holding out his hands helplessly.
'I wasn't staring!'
'You WERE!' several people shouted back at him, pink faced with laughter.
Scorpius adopted a vacant, dreamy sort of expression, staring into the middle distance. 'H...ello,' he croaked, which only made the rest of the family laugh even more. Teddy's stomach ached from it, and he could see Lily wiping tears from her eyes.
'I didn't say it like that!'
'You DID!'
'I said it normally! A normal hello!'
'You absolutely did not, and you stared for so long - I have never seen you look more like your mother,' said Harry. 'I was transported back to my first visit to the Burrow.'
'Oh!' said Ginny, with mock crossness, and she leaned over the table to place a protective hand on her son's shoulder. 'Ignore them, Al, they don't know what it's like to meet your heroes-'
Albus rested his forehead on the table, between the tub of flapjacks and bottles of butterbeer, his shoulders shaking in despairing laughter. 'Mum, it's your fault, springing that on me... Can't believe I just stared at him... Why didn't you warn me he was their coach?'
'I thought it would be a nice surprise!' said Ginny. 'I thought you'd always wanted to meet Gonçalo Flores!'
'He did,' said Scorpius, 'but I bet he always imagined he'd be very suave and witty, not just... "H...ello...", didn't you, Al?'
'I hate you all, I hate Quidditch, I hate Gonçalo Flores-'
'No, you don't.'
'No, I don't,' admitted Albus, still hilariously red in the face. 'He was so nice about it... just makes it worse...'
'Al,' said James above the family's laughter. He was grinning evilly. 'Is he on your list, Al?'
'Oh my God, shut up-'
'He is!' said James gleefully, as amused 'ooh's' filled the carriage and Scorpius nodded enthusiastically, looking positively elated. 'He is on your list!'
'You know, I was worried for about half a second when I saw him,' said Scorpius. 'But fair's fair, you gave it your best shot, Al, I'm happy for him to stay on the list.'
'What list?' asked Harry, frowning. 'I don't get it.'
'Oh, sweetheart, you're so innocent,' said Ginny sympathetically, leaning back to squeeze Harry's knee. 'You're probably on loads of lists.'
'What lists?' he asked, apparently entirely flummoxed. 'What for?'
'No one tell him,' said Teddy quickly. 'No one explain.'
'Is it a list of people to kill? If someone's on your list you want to kill them?'
'Oh my God, Dad, get more mind healing,' said Lily, which made Ted snort with laughter.
'Al definitely doesn't want to kill Gonçalo Flores...' said James, with a grin that looked eerily like Uncle George.
'Stop it; I don't want to discuss this with my parents-' hissed Al.
'Who else is on your list?' asked Ginny. She looked at Scorpius. 'Who else is on it?'
'Well...'
‘You know who’s on mine?’ said Rowan, who seemed drunker than Ted had ever seen him, ‘Cerys Twycross. That actress from that play we saw last year.’
Lily snorted. ‘In your dreams, love.’
‘Well, yes, precisely,’ said Rowan, which earned him a shriek of laughter from Ginny.
‘You know what,’ said Scorpius, with a brief smirk at Lily. ‘I could arrange that for you. I know a guy who knows her.’
‘Shut up!’ said Lily, sitting up so fast in her seat that the pack of crisps in her lap went flying. ‘You don’t, you’re winding me up, you’re as bad as James sometimes.’
‘Tell me more,’ said Rowan, leaning forward.
‘Yeah, good luck, Ro…’
'Hazel,' said Harry, leaning across the aisle.
'No,' she said at once, shaking her head frantically. The others laughed.
'What does it mean?' he asked. 'You'll tell me.'
'Don't tell him, Haze!'
'I - ask your son-' she babbled.
'Tell me, I'm your boss-'
'Not any more...'
'I'm good friends with your boss, come on-'
'Hazel, don-'
'It's a list of people you're allowed to sleep with,' she blurted out, and then her cheeks flushed pink too.
'Ahh,' said Harry, leaning back. He turned to Ginny with a grin that Teddy did not like at all. 'Like our agreement about Madeleine Marlborough?'
'I beg your pardon?' spluttered James, as Al and Lily both howled in revulsion and the others burst into renewed laughter.
'The Australian singer.'
'Yes, I know who she is, I wish I didn't.'
'Horrible,' Teddy said. 'She's my age. You're both horrible. Who - no I don't want to know.'
'It's not serious,' Harry assured them.
'Excuse me, speak for yourself,' said Ginny.
'Stop!' pleaded Albus, burying his face in his hands. 'The pair of you... I am about to leap off this train.'
'This is terrible,' James agreed. 'This is... deeply traumatising.'
'It's all right for you,' said Ted. 'You'll forget it in about five minutes.'
'Well, that's five minutes too long.'
'You all need to toughen up,' said Harry with a shrug. 'Scorpius, Rowan and Hazel don't mind.' Indeed, they were all spluttering with laughter, Hazel and Rowan exchanging shocked but amused glances.
'They're not related to you!'
'And anyway, sadly I can't imagine we'll ever meet her, our concert days are over and I don’t think we run in the same circles.'
'I think this whole experience demonstrates that just because someone is on your list, doesn't mean that you'll actually enjoy meeting them,' said Albus flatly.
'Oh, Ally, you poor thing, no wonder you were so star-struck,' said Ginny. 'You should have told me he was on your list-'
'GOD-!'
'Back in the day, when-'
'Yes - we know - you met Dad and you couldn't speak in front of him, but you were a little girl, I'm a fully grown man-'
'So's Gonçalo Flores,' said Scorpius, with an exaggerated wink.
Albus screamed into the tub of brownie bites.
The shrieks of laughter and jeers continued as the train snaked through the darkness, swaying slightly as it turned corners. Teddy liked travelling this way; they had known that several of them would be too drunk to apparate after the match, and the Knight Bus and Portkey points would likely be too full of journalists and people staring to be worth it. But Teddy liked the slowness of muggle transport, he liked the conversations that arose from lack of anything else to do, the way that they were cramped in together. He blew across the top of his butterbeer bottle to make the funny hooting noise before remembering his young daughters were not there with him, but at home with Vic, but Lily laughed and seemed to appreciate it anyway.
'If I get an emptier one,' she said, 'and someone else gets another - we should try and make the theme tune to the Bowmans.'
'Ooh, yes, let me help,' said Ginny, seizing a bottle. 'Hazel, you take this one - if we get good enough, we can save some money on the wedding band.'
'Did we book a band?' James blurted out suddenly, and he seized his notebook and began rifling through the pages. 'Did we-?'
'Yes,' said Hazel soothingly. 'It's all arranged.'
'Which one, I don't remember-'
'It's all right,' said Harry patiently, for James was starting to look a little frantic. 'No one expects you to remember everything involved in planning a wedding.'
'OK, I've found it - I wrote here that I booked them - but I don't remember doing it-'
Teddy exchanged a dark glance with Ginny, who picked up a tub of caramelized peanuts and shook them at James in offering. ‘That’s what you write things down for, isn’t it? Grab a handful of these before they’re all gone, I can’t stop picking at them.’
He must have known he was being distracted, for he gave her an irritable sort of look, but he did take a handful and returned to looking through his notebook in a much calmer sort of way.
‘Is your list in there?’ Ted asked, nodding at the full pages. ‘So you don’t forget?’
James’s brown eyes flicked up at him a narrowed slightly. ‘No,’ he said firmly.
‘You said that pretty quickly,’ said Al.
‘Almost too quickly.’
‘I don’t have a list,’ said James. ‘I’m not a pervert like the rest of you.’
‘Everyone’s got a list, Jim,’ said Scorpius. ‘Even if they don’t realise.’
‘Your father and I aren’t perverts!’ exclaimed Ginny.
‘You are, and I won’t hear any more about it-’
‘Hazel -’ began Harry, ‘obviously you both have lists, don’t you? I’m your boss-’
‘I am absolutely not talking to you about it,’ said Hazel.
There was a great, rhythmic ‘ooh’ from the amused family, and James grinned broadly at her, but Harry was also grinning, unfazed and unoffended. ‘So there is a list, then?’
There was another round of whooping, howling laughter, Rowan clapping his hands in delight. ‘He’s got you there!’
Hazel was laughing, her head in her hands, but James, still amused, was leaping to her defence. ‘Don’t twist her words - thank God you’re not an auror now, that wouldn’t hold up in court, would it? Don’t-’
‘He’s so defensive - I bet it’s because their lists are filthy!’ insisted Al.
‘Absolutely not, there’s no list!’
The train began to rattle and sway even more, slipping between towering concrete covered in graffiti. The tannoy chimed and the Geordie accent from before announced that they would soon be arriving into Kings Cross.
‘Excellent,’ said Harry happily, although Teddy felt oddly glum that their journey had come to an end.
They staggered off the train together into the almost empty station, still bedecked in green, still laughing and shouting loudly at one another, their voices echoing off the grubby white tiles. Harry, though Lily had not permitted him to drink much at all, threw open his arms and looked up at the great glass ceiling as he walked. ‘Isn’t it good to be back here, kids?’ he called loudly. Then he span and pointed at Teddy. ‘A few more years and you’ll be here every September again too!’
Ted grinned at him, though the prospect of Dora and Celeste starting school mildly terrified him. He kept walking, and as he reached Harry, his godfather slung his arm around his shoulders. ‘Watch out,’ he told Ted, ‘it goes by in a flash.’
‘Already is.’
‘Bring the girls next time, it was lovely having everyone together. They’d love it - you know it’s no problem getting tickets.’
‘I told you - it’s well past their bed time.’
‘Ah, who cares - the odd late night never hurt anyone.’
‘Easy to say when you don’t have to deal with them the next day!’ said Ted, laughing.
The ticket gates were wide open; the family walked through without reaching into their pockets for the little orange cards. ‘Right,’ Ginny was saying briskly, ‘who’s coming to Ron and Hermione’s with us? Al and Scorpius - are you still going with Ted to Grimmauld Place? Or - no, Lily, was that you two?’
But Lily was ignoring her, pulling urgently on Rowan’s hand and gesturing frantically at the others. ‘Hurry - the night tube isn’t running tonight!’
‘Ah, we’ll get a cab-’
‘Thank you,’ said Harry’s voice, much quieter now. Ted stopped watching the rest of the family chaotically argue over getting the tube or taxis, and looked at Harry. He was watching his son and Hazel; James was pointing at the barrier between platform’s nine and ten, recounting some story. ‘For joking about it all with him, for keeping it light.’
‘Of course,’ said Ted. ‘Wasn’t that what we all agreed?’
‘Yes, but I know it isn’t easy, but you always find the right words.’
‘Sort of my job,’ mumbled Ted awkwardly. ‘He seems to be doing so much better though, so it is getting easier, isn’t it?’
‘It is. It’ll be a good wedding.’
‘TED!’ Lily bellowed. ‘Come ON! We’re going back to yours!’
‘Chill out!’ he shouted back to her, and then looked once more at Harry with great exasperation. ‘What’s she like?’
Harry smiled, though it seemed slightly strained. ‘I mean it. Thank you.’
‘You don’t need to thank me for looking after my brother.’
Harry hugged him, one hand gripping at the silky Harpies flag draped round Ted’s shoulders, the other at the back of his head in his emerald green hair. ‘Good luck with writing the speech,’ he said. ‘Send my love to Vic and the girls.’
‘Will do. See you Sunday.’
They broke apart. ‘Jim! Hazel!’ Harry called across the wide expanse of the station. ‘Let’s go, if we’re too late back Hermione’ll tell us off.’
Beneath the great glass ceiling of Kings Cross, the family hugged, and made their hasty, happy farewells.
Hiiiiiii :) I love your Next Generation Aesthetic and was wondering if you could share some of your next gen headcanons with us?
Thank you so much😘 ofcourse I’ll share some of my headcanons with you :) I’ll do them oneby one and go from oldest to youngest. Oh and sorry it turned out so long
Teddy:
He was born on 13th April, the day after the full moon
When he was a baby/toddler he used to change his hair depending on whatever mood he would happen to be in
Molly and Arthur always saw Teddy as their first grandchild
Even though he lives with Andromeda, he still spends a lot of time with the Potter’s or at the burrow
Because he often changed his appearance without even noticing, he couldn’t go to a normal kindergarten/preschool
This lead to Victoire being his first real friend
“Why does Vicky call Bill ‘Dad’, but I’m not calling you ‘Dad’, Harry?”
He’s four when he asks this and it’s the first time someone tells him
He cried, he felt sad, but he still didn’t understand completely, because how could a four-year-old understand that
But he wasn’t alone
He had his grandma, Harry and Ginny
And they loved him
From this day on he always made three cards each Mother’s Day: One for his grandma, one for Ginny and one for the woman who loved him so much that she died for him
When he was six and James Sirius was born he had a little bother
He was nervous when he left to go to Hogwarts
Would he be a Gryffindor like his dad and his expanded family?
A Hufflepuff like his mother and his grandfather?
A Slytherin like his grandmother?
Or the first Ravenclaw in the family?
It didn’t take long for the sorting hat to put Teddy into Hufflepuff
And it that moment his hair turned bubble gum pink
For his 13th birthday Harry gave Teddy the Marauder’s Map
When people met Teddy as a teenager it didn’t take long for them to realize that the word ‘Hufflepunk’ existed because of this boy
Is just as clumsy as his mother (Oh wait that’s canon)
He was 15 when he realized that he had fallen in love with Victoire
He was 16 when he told her
He was 17 when Bill found out and was glad that he knew how to disapparate by the time
When he left Hogwarts (with excellent grades) he became a healer at St. Mungo’s
Victoire:
Looks like a mini version of her mum
Followed Teddy around everywhere when they were little
Hide and seek champion
Is one of the few Weasley’s that would rather die than sitting on a broom
Teddy mocks her about this sometimes
“You don’t like flying either!”
“Yes, but I didn’t scream that I would die, when I was only two feet off the ground.”
She was the first Weasley to get sorted into Ravenclaw
Perfect and Head Girl
Speaks perfect French, but likes to hoax people
“Can you say something in French?”
“Tu es un abruti.”
“What does that mean?”
“You’re really beautiful.”
Looks like an innocent little girl, but if you make her angry you better run
Wears a different flower in her hair everyday
On Halloween she however always wears lilies
After the other girls were old enough to understand the meaning behind this, they started doing this too
Fred II:
If you think that his name is everything he shares with his uncle you’re terribly wrong
Is in the same year as James Sirius and this is a combination Hogwarts was not prepared for
Proud Gryffindor
Is the only student to never be pranked by Peeves
George never tells him why, because the memory still hurts
Is one of the Gryffindor beaters since his second year
After he finished school “Weasley’s Wizard Wheezes” finally becames “Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes” again
Once created a potion that jumped out of the cauldron and disappeared through the wall
No one knows how that happened
Molly II:
Is also in Fred and Sirius year
The sorting hat was already confused after he had to sort a James Potter and Fred Weasley again, but when he heard Neville calling out “Molly Weasley”, he thought they were making fun of him
He however realized that this one was different after he sorted her into Ravenclaw after 14 minutes
Perfect and Head Girl
She is a rather quiet girl
But if she wants something she will do anything to get it and is a lot like her father in this point
Even though Molly isn’t as big of a prankster as her two cousins she still helps them often
When Percy got a letter from McGonagall telling him that Molly got a detention, he couldn’t believe what he just read
Molly was also the one who figured out how to add new things to the Marauder’s Map, like the Room of Requirement
Molly still is one of the kindest people you would ever met and has a heart out of pure gold
James Sirius:
Just like Fred II this boy lives up to the legacy of his name givers
And with his messy black hair and his brown eyes he looks a lot like his grandfather
Each year on Harry’s birthday James rendered Ginny’s poem
Is one of the Gryffindor beaters
Became team captain in his fourth year
There were some protests once, because at one point the Quidditch team was Potter and Weasley only
Is extremely good at charms
Teddy gave him the Marauder’s Map at the beginning of James’ third year
Is always super protective when it comes to his siblings and cousins
One time he and Fred had to sort out old detention slips, when he had THE idea
The two of them spend days counting how many pranks the marauders and Fred and George pulled throughout their time at Hogwarts
After they counted all of them together they had a new goal
They would beat them and pull more pranks then all of them together
In their seventh year they were worried that they wouldn’t be able to beat them
But they did
Their last prank was after their N.E.W.T.s
And it was the ultimate prank
This was also the only day McGonagall truly thought about retiring
Lucy:
Other than her sister Lucy hates her red hair
She started dying it when she was 14 and changed its colour all the time
At first because she thought it was cool, later to annoy her dad
Even through blood status wasn’t important to her, she was still kind of proud that she and Molly were the only pureblood Weasley kids
Is super curious
Often eavesdrops on other people
Loves gossip
Is one of the chaser on the Gryffindor Quidditch team
Super smart and loves playing chess
Likes to be alone sometimes, but still can’t be too long without her two best friends/cousins
Great at Divination
Dominique:
Was born on the first May which lead to problems between her and Victoire, because they both hated to have their birthdays so close together
Rebel heart
The only thing she has in common with her sister is her blond hair and that she will kick your ass
Amazing artist
Like really, that girl has some talent
Wears black 99.9% of the time
She, Lucy and Roxanne share a dorm in the Gryffindor tower
When it comes to friendships between the Weasley kids, theirs is the strongest
These three are the gossip queens of Hogwarts
Kind of hoped that she would be sorted into Slytherin, but knew that she belonged into Gryffindor
Refuses to speak French, when people ask her to
Gryffindor Chaser
Roxanne:
Loves that she has naturally red hair and dark skin
Is an awesome singer and loves music more than anything
She is the other chaser of the Gryffindor Quidditch team
Always wears a choker necklace
Ripped jeans
Is gay and has a crush on this cute Hufflepuff girl in her year
Sassy as hell
Shares the love of her grandfather for Muggle things (she prefers the old ones)
Lucy and Dominique are the only ones who are allowed to call her Roxy
Leader of the “Pluto is a planet” society at Hogwarts
Activist, literally will start a demonstration if she really wants something
Scorpius Hyperion:
Really quiet
Sometimes hates it to be a pureblood, because of the prejudices
Loves his father AND HIS MOTHER, WHO IS STILL ALIVE AND LIVES HAPPILY WITH DRACO!!!!!!!!!
Will never feel ashamed for his father and will defend him every time someone tries to talk bullshit about the Malfoys
Is totally gay for Albus
Reads a lot, spends more time with books than with people
Only person whose character was good in Cursed Child
Is Narcissa’s “little prince"
Had a happy childhood
Is always welcome at the burrow and at Potter’s
Does not give a f*** about whether someone is a pureblood, half blood, or muggle born thing
Slytherin Perfect
Rose:
Of all the Weasley’s Rose is the best at Quidditch
She’s a keeper
Is the only one who got into the team in her first year
Became captain after James graduated
Is super smart like her mom
But will procrastinate for as long as possible
Oh, what was that? You were insulting someone I like? Let me just PUNCH YOU IN THE FACE!
Biggest Scorbus shipper of all time
Looks like Hermione, but with red hair
Is super close with her dad
Ron was the one who thought her how to be a perfect keeper
But sometimes she asks Ginny or Angelina for Quidditch advice
Albus:
The hat actually wasn’t sure whether to put Albus into Gryffindor or Slytherin
He wanted to be in Slytherin
Doesn’t play Quidditch, but loves to watch
When its Gryffindor vs. Slytherin he will cheer for his house, but won’t boo on his family
Loves his little baby sister and his idiot brother ;)
Is totally gay for Scorpius
Also rather quiet
Smart, he knows what he’s doing and always thinks before acting
Once found Snape’s portrait at Hogwarts and talked with him all night
Oh, and just a reminder that Neville is canonly Albus’ godfather
Louis:
Went to Beauxbaton till his fourth year
He came back, because he wanted to be with his family after all
Is the only other Wotter Slytherin
Is a poet
When he lived in France he used to write many long letters to his family
Needs his time alone
Knew he wanted to be an author when he was 13
Published his first book with 19
Is the only person to publish a Harry Potter biography
Well at least the only authorised person
There is this one book written by Rita Skeeter, but that’s a different story
Lorcan and Lysander:
Identical twins
Lorcan is still older
Lorcan is a Ravenclaw like his mom
Lysander is a Hufflepuff like his dad
Newt always told them stories about his creatures when they were little
The two of them love to listen to their great-grandfather
They also love grandpa Xeno’s stories about all these weird magical beings no one ever saw
Are full of love and will offer help to anyone who needs it
The two of them, Lily and Hugo were always seen together at Hogwarts
When Louis came to Hogwarts he joined them
Do the Quidditch commentary in turns (sometimes together)
Hugo:
Is really shy
Will let Lily or Rose do the talking most of the time
Has probably read more books than his mother when she was his age
Doesn’t play Quidditch, but loves to box
Great at Transfiguration
Thinks a lot about becoming an Animagus
Even though he is one of the youngest Weasley’s he still acts like some big brother forwards younger students
Is a Perfect
Lily Luna:
Has Lily’s eyes (I don’t give a f*** about canon when it comes to this)
Luna is her godmother
Is Harry’s little princess especially when she was younger
Could do anything and he just couldn’t be mad at her
Puppy eyes
This scene could happen at Potter’s
Loves her whole family, but if she had to pick a favourite it would be Teddy
He’s also the only one she will listen to
When she was young she was the cutest little girl you could imagine
Is the seeker of the Gryffindor team
After she joined the team it was all Potter and Weasley
From all three potter kids she is the one who is the closest to Harry’s personality
She really loved being like her dad until she was older
She didn’t like people comparing her to him
She didn’t like only being “The Chosen One’s daughter”
She just couldn’t stand that people were seeing her just as his daughter and nothing else
“The new Gryffindor seeker is Harry Potter’s daughter, just like her father.”
“The best student in DADA is Harry Potter’s daughter, just like her father.”
And even when she did something that had nothing to do with him she was still just his daughter
“The new member of the Gobstone club is Harry Potter’s daughter.”
She even just joined, because she wanted to be NOT like him
That was when her rebel phase began
At some point she even stopped to talk to Harry (even though she knew it wasn’t his fault) and it broke his heart
And this was worse than James or Fred or Dominique or anyone else
She learned to deal with it in her sixth year (people also started to see as an own person)
But the relationship between her and Harry was still tensed
Even after she started to talk to him again
In her last year she found an old motorbike
When she asked Harry why he had a motorbike, but never used it, he started to explain that is was Sirius
For some reason they bounded over this moment
Lily was the only person with who Harry talked about Sirius after the war
Like really talked, not just a little bit
He gave it to her after she graduated and it was the best present she ever got
The only thing that was left from her rebel phase was the fact that she still refused to use Expelliarmus even though she became an Auror
She only used it one time again, after some dark wizard tried to kill Harry and she was the only one to notice it fast enough and disarm him

people need supplies to protest safely, and even if they bring supplies with them, they can often run out. if you’re able, stock up and hand them out to people protesting. for more supplies to donate, see the “george floyd action” google docs link in section 5.
water bottles (dehydration and heatstroke are not things people should have to deal with alongside bastard cops. if the police in your area are particularly violent or known to use tear gas, get the ones with the sports cap/suction-thing/etc so people can use them as emergency eye-flushes.)
snacks (make sure to take into account that people have allergies of all sorts. foods will have a little label that says “may contain” and then list any potential allergens. write the allergens on the ziploc (or any container you use) in permanent marker, or better yet, write the snacks included in the pack.)
masks (don’t forget there’s still a pandemic going on. also it will aid in deterring facial recognition when the police try to track down protestors, also part two, if the cops use tear gas, wearing a mask (with the combination of a scarf or bandana) will lessen the adverse effects. lessen, not stop.)
bandanas, scarves, etc. and goggles (ski goggles, swimming goggles, etc.) (see above for explanation on the scarves. same goes for the goggles. anti–tear gas and anti–facial recognition.)
clean shirts (for people who are heavily gassed. also helps deter recognition through clothing.)
wound care supplies (band-aids, packets of neosporin packets or a similar antibiotic, alcohol wipes, etc.; if you can, decant bactine into those little travel bottles.)
a sharpie or another type of marker (for writing bail numbers or emergency contacts on arms, hands, etc. it’s not enough to have your city’s bail fund number stored on your phone; the police won’t give it to you to look it up. give people a marker so they can write it down, preferably not washable so it isn’t easily removed.)
IMPORTANT: KNOWING FIRST AID
tear gas: if you’re hit, get out as fast and as soon as you can. take anyone you can with you. the longer you’re in the gas, the harder it will be for you to see, and it can irritate your airways, making it hard to breathe. if you’re hit, don’t run; it’ll only make things worse on your lungs. when you leave the area, take a cold shower. don’t use hot water (it will only reactivate the agent); don’t bathe (it will only spread the CS around). (source 1) (source 2) (cdc fact sheet on tear gas)
move them to a clean and ventilated area where it’s as safe as possible.
ask them if they’re wearing contact lenses. have them remove it. if they’re wearing glasses, rinse it with water.
solution of half liquid antacid, half water. spray from the inside going out, with the head tilted back and slightly towards the side being rinsed. if they say it’s okay, open the eye slightly while doing this. (source)
bullet wounds: the most important thing is to stop the bleeding. be sure to check for an exit wound and cover that as well. treat both wounds, but treat the worse one first.

making a tourniquet (a commercial tourniquet is best, but improvised ones can work as well if done properly; the most important things to remember is that tourniquets are for limb injuries and are not meant for the head or torso and that they have to be very tightly wound on the injury.)

be responsible with this. people’s lives are at stake. that being said, the media is a fucking joke and the best way to get accurate information in a grassroots rebellion is amongst ourselves. record everything, but if you are going to share any information at all, be sure to blur people’s faces.

NUMBERS TO CALL FOR ARRESTED PROTESTORS (ALPHABETICAL ORDER; SOURCES LINKED TO THE NUMBER)
remember to keep phones OFF unless absolutely necessary. cell phone towers, stingrays, location notifs can all be used to track you and other protestors. don’t fuck around. if your phone must be on, keep it on airplane mode as often as possible and only communicate using encrypted methods. no, snapchat doesn’t count. (a twitter thread on stingrays, for those interested)

also, if you’re protesting, change your passcode. make it at least 11 characters long and don’t use facial/thumb recognition.
