Wait, If You're Still Taking Suggestions, Can You Do A Slytherin-Gryffindor Friendship? It Doesn't Have

It's the Gujarati Anon here!

First off, those are some pretty great headcanons. Just one thing, if you headcanon Euphemia as Gujarati as well you may want to reconsider her lastname being Gill. Since Gill is generally a last name from Punjab with Sikh origins. I love the Jigishu part by the way! But I don't think it's something someone would actually name their kid but more of a affectionate nickname if their name was something like Jignesh.

Thank you! I apologize for mixing up the surnames, I’ll be changing it to something that fits where she’s from. Any suggestions?

Also, thanks for the Jigishu part. I’ll change James’ name now.

I appreciate the help! May I ask what you, as a Gujarati, like to see in James and his family?

I’d be more than happy to explain, but can you specify what it is that you don’t understand?

Thoughts on Regulus

I am honestly conflicted on how I want to portray him in the story. Like, personally, I love him and the idea that maybe he created a public front where he pretended to hate Sirius and his friends and such, but when he couldn’t sleep he’d send his older brother an owl requesting to sneak around. I’m an older sibling, and I really could not imagine being separated from my brother like that. I would refuse, as much as I’d like to strangle him sometimes, I would also die for him.

But then, I also have some ideas on how it would be if I went the usual route of making Regulus automatically cut him off when Sirius was sorted into Gryffindor. BUT, also, what part of this rewrite takes the usual routes?

ANYWAY. I might use a combination of both. Because I think Regulus was a complex character who was, like his brother, abused.

Being abused by your parents is a strange thing, sometimes, because it can either develop profound hatred towards your abusers, or create some sort of attachment and need to please the very people that hurt you. And I really want to explore that with Sirius and Regulus and how each of them dealt with their issue at home.

On a lighter note, I read once a headcanon that said that Pandora (Luna Lovegood’s mom) was maybe friends with Regulus, and I loved that idea so much. Mostly, I think of them quietly rebelling against their families. And I wholeheartedly believe that Pandora helped Regulus with the locket after she was inevitably kicked out of her family for marrying Xenophilius.

I meant the first Wizarding War! He was born 22 August 1976, and the war ended around 1981, so he'll have been a child back then

Oh shit, you’re right! I completely forgot that he must’ve been born during the first war. In that case, I think you might be onto something🤔

Harry Potter Rewrite: Google Form.

Hello my loves,

I’ve been a bit stuck while writing (nothing to worry about, I just have the attention span of a five-year-old and cannot focus for the life of me), but I still wanted to hear more about what you guys want to see! So, I found a much more organized way of doing that!

Google Form!

Honestly, I’m really excited to see what you guys want or don’t want. Who knows, maybe something will strike me and help me keep writing! Remember, I accept headcanons of every character that isn’t Dumbledore. Literally tell me about anyone else except him.

Asks and PMs are always welcomed, too!

Verosui.

[ veros: “genuine” (Greek); sui: “self” (Latin). ]

OFFICIAL NAME. Verosui

ALSO KNOWN AS. The Holy Messenger OR The Amender

SIZE. 14.5 in

DIET. They eat berries, but they also enjoy eating arthropods and small invertebrates such as spiders, scorpions, centipedes and such.

ABOUT THEM. There used to be an ancient ceremony where whenever someone announced that they were born in the wrong body, they would contact the Goddess via a song so that She would send her beloved pet, the Verosui, to right her wrong. The Amender would arrive a week after the song, to perform its magic. During this week, the village or family would gather around in prayer so that the Amender will show its holy compassion as a sign of compassion towards the sufferer.

Once the Amender arrives, they shall see if a person’s true self would be what they claim. If they deem it necessary, they shall begin the performance of sex reassignment, which really involves powerful magic being used while they fly in circles around their target. It is said that the experience is a mixture of thrilling and painful, so it would really depend on who the person is.

Unfortunately, this ceremony was banned in 1903 by the Minister of Magic at the time — K. Rowl. Ever since then, the wixes were forced to forget about this ceremony since they would be persecuted if they attempted to relieve a sufferer’s pain. Sufferers were soon scorned and mocked if they came out.

“Knew! Of course we knew! How could you not be, my dratted sister being what she was? Oh, she got a letter just like that and disappeared off to that — that school — and came home every vacation with her pockets full of frog spawn, turning teacups into rats. I was the only one who saw her for what she was — a freak! But for my mother and father, oh no, it was Lily this and Lily that, they were proud of having a witch in the family!” (HP&PS, Chapter Four) 

I don’t know how Lily’s pocket would be full of frog spawn, so I’m gonna take this as Lily used to have a pet frog/toad. No more Lily Evans with pretty and majestic pets like cats and owls, enter Lily Evans with a pet frog she named Tulip (after her favorite flower, of course). She loved that slimy animal with her whole soul.

No, you can’t change my mind about it.
