2023-09-30 15:19:36 +0000 UTC View PostAfter ending his first attempt at teaching students about the nature of magic, it was finally time for the practical portion that he had talked about in the very beginning. Harry raised his wand, and gave it a small flick, and like an invisible curtain that had just dropped, the entire room shimmered, revealing twenty duelling courts, each of them barely more than fifteen feet in length. The cl...
2023-09-30 15:10:51 +0000 UTC View PostWe added over 2500 words of new content to Chapter 16, and shifted some of Chap 16's content to Chap 17, to make the entire thing more cohesive and enjoyable to read. One might think that it is unnecessary to keep editing, but we settle for nothing but the absolute best quality of writing.
The BlackStaff And NightMarE are known for that.
So, we're reposting the current Chapter 16, f...
2023-09-30 15:06:05 +0000 UTC View PostThis was by far, one of the weirdest feelings in his entire existence, decided Harry as he looked at himself in the mirror. He was looking at the jet black professor robes, not very much different from his usual uniform except the utter lack of House stripes. His hair still looked just as unruly as it always did, though Fleur preferred to call it his ‘after-shagged’ hairstyle, not something...
2023-09-25 20:57:32 +0000 UTC View Post“Honestly, Potter,” claimed Lee Jordan. “You’re such a disappointment.”
“Agreed,” said Fred, sneering. “Really not expected of you.”
“Where did we go wrong?” mourned George, palming his face.
“Dumbledore did say it was because of the curse,” said Hermione. “So it’s an interim position.”
“Yeah,” said Ginny, her tone as wet as the Sahara...
2023-09-20 14:03:45 +0000 UTC View PostHermione Granger sat on the Gryffindor table, silently eating her dinner. It was apparently an important event as Dumbledore had requested everyone’s presence at the Great Hall. All four houses were in full attendance, as were the staff. Even Professor Trelawney, who only joined the High table on rare occasions, and Professor Burbage, who usually preferred eating in her office, were present, ...
2023-09-15 14:11:24 +0000 UTC View Post“What do you think this is about?”
Harry gave Fleur a half-shrug, as they approached the stone gargoyle. He had received a sudden missive from Dumbledore to visit him in his office. That wasn’t surprising, given the number of missives he had gotten from the Headmaster over the years, a number that had drastically risen ever since the start of term. What really surprised him however,...
2023-09-10 16:11:18 +0000 UTC View PostApologies for the delay. Took some time to get some stuff sorted out. Anyway, you will still get the promised six updates for the month. We were planning to release this yesterday to be honest, but it took a little longer to get it all done.
Update Schedule for this month - 6th. 10th. 15th. 20th. 25th. 30th. I'll stick to this schedule for future months too, only make it ...
2023-09-06 15:31:38 +0000 UTC View Post“Bloody buggering hell!” Daphne groaned, bent on all fours, her entire body shaking. She shivered, took deep breaths, and let her head hang down limp between her shoulders. “Fucking hell! That hurt, Harry!”
“Sorry….” Harry began.
“Don’t apologise, ‘Arry,” said Delacour, the sadistic bitch that she was. “What else can you expect from a leetle girl?”...
2023-09-06 15:29:39 +0000 UTC View PostAs commented upon by multiple readers here, Chapter 9 had some glaring OOC moments for Harry Potter as well as reactions from Sirius/Daphne/Fleur/Others that did not fit the theme of the last several chapters. So we went ahead and heavily edited it to make it more cohesive.
Please check it out.
2023-08-28 14:13:21 +0000 UTC View Post“This is so exhausting!” muttered Daphne, as she pored through the pages of Moste Potente Potions, making notes on for her potions essay. Harry had missed the last potions class, and somewhere in her worry for her fiance and the hundred and eleven things zooming in her head, she had buggered up her invigorating potion. She was lucky that Professor Snape had only punished her with a thirteen...
2023-08-28 14:11:06 +0000 UTC View Post“Ever since that night at the cemetery, I’ve been having… dreams. I’m… I’m not sure if I can call them dreams, because they’re too lucid. In them, I’m in a cold place, like an icy mountain. I think. And I meet Ignotus.”
“Who iz this man?” Fleur asked.
“Ignotus Peverell,” said Harry. “Grandfather of Iolanthe Peverell. She married Hardwin Potter, and is my ...
2023-08-23 13:26:41 +0000 UTC View PostIt’s all a blur. Unreal. He crouches down, looking at the murky, silvery waters, seeing his reflection in them. But it isn’t him that is looking back — its eyes are black, like gaping black holes, an unwavering emptiness that would swallow him if he lets it. The hand comes out, grips him and pulls him into the pool.
Pool? Underwater? Ocean? He cannot tell.
Albus Dumbledore didn’t believe in God. Most wizards didn’t. After all, magic was akin to a force that behaved in certain ways. Like a mechanic, or an engineer, you could make them work for you if you knew how, without needing a god or a goddess or whatever to get involved. But more important than that, it was the fact that Faith was all about letting go and trusting someone else.
And...
2023-08-13 14:02:19 +0000 UTC View PostThe world is grayscale. Except for the prey.
They are bathed in red. Fear, coldness, anticipation, resentment, horror — he recognizes a plethora of emotions. How? It doesn’t matter. All it matters is that these strange creatures with bony limbs and tattered shadowy cloaks that surround him. It reminds him of something… no, of someone, seeing someone on the other bank of...
2023-08-08 13:58:08 +0000 UTC View PostCrap. This place is a mess.
Ignotus had told him how Death had ravaged this place. It explained the rotten structures, the desolate buildings and the blackened Hogwarts. It didn’t at all explain why the forbidden forest had grown to at least twice its size, and sprawled all the way into the Hogwarts grounds and the Quidditch pitch. If Death had killed every single thing in here...
2023-08-03 18:58:32 +0000 UTC View PostA cold and rusty wind stirred momentarily as Harry appeared with a pop. His gaze wandered over his new surroundings and his face betrayed a flicker of distaste and disappointment. After all the metaphorical description McGonagall had pounded him with, he had expected something bright and rich and surreal. After all, this was the world of spirits.
Instead what he found was a soggy mess. 2023-07-26 16:50:31 +0000 UTC View Post
By the time Harry walked into McGonagall’s office, it was close to sunset. He had been surprised when the professor had asked him to drop in at an exact time, but the woman hadn’t explained why, just telling him that they were going to make a significant jump in his journey into self-transfiguration. She had looked practically giddy, if he might say so. McGonagall had always been the sanest...
2023-07-21 17:21:40 +0000 UTC View PostHarry took a momentary pause. Taking on powerful wizards was one thing. Taking on ones who had done their homework and who knew who you were and exactly what you have done was something else entirely. Rattled, a hundred questions flashed through his head right that moment, yet his mouth didn’t move, his mind rushing into overdrive as he considered all potential outcomes of this one event. Nic...
2023-07-16 17:55:10 +0000 UTC View PostA group of curse-breakers, school governors and staff, and visiting delegates walked into a girl’s lavatory. It sounded like the beginning of a joke, but Harry Potter was not amused.
Possibly because the joke was on him.
“Harry!” sang Myrtle, appearing out of her toilet with a splash. “You came back!”
Years of being in public scrutiny allowed him to...

Cornelius sagged down on his chair, his restless hands barely managing to stay on the table before him. Ever since the blasted night of the Triwizard, things had been on a downward spiral for him. Death of over half of Lucius’s faction, an absolute PR nightmare in front of ...
2023-07-01 18:08:13 +0000 UTC View PostDolores Umbridge strolled into the classroom, a wide smile across her face.
Her plan had worked. She had finally been able to accomplish what her dear Minister sent her for. She had finally been able to secure a position to openly confront the bane of Cornelius’s existence — that damned Harry Potter.
Honestly, even she was surprised at how easy it had been. After the wa...
2023-06-27 17:47:50 +0000 UTC View PostDaphne exhaled as she stood in front of Harry’s room. Normally, just being there was enough to get her palpitating in exhilaration at the opportunity to spend a little alone time with her fiance. As much as she hated to admit it, Daphne had become the one thing she had always feared and despised — a love-struck fool.
And the worst part? She couldn’t even blame anyone for it.

2023-06-17 18:09:09 +0000 UTC View Post“FURNUNCULUS! STUPEFY! TARANTALLEGRA!”
Daphne watched as Harry casually sidestepped each of the curses as soon as they were spoken. To her, and the entire class, it was like he had anticipated where the beams of light would strike before they had been fired, which was amazing. He was just casually walking between steps, as if filled with absolute certainty that none of the sp...
2023-06-12 15:44:33 +0000 UTC View PostThe Defence Against The Dark Arts class was in session. Which, in Daphne-speak, meant that Umbridge was sitting upon her chair, busy sipping tea, while the rest of the class was sitting quietly and mindlessly droning over whatever new crap Slinkhard had to say about the subject. Tracey looked like she was about to burst a nerve, while Millie looked as bored as ever. Crabbe and Goyle were ...
2023-06-07 18:26:20 +0000 UTC View PostHarry stood in the shower, soaking up the heat, letting the water course all over him. He had bruised himself a little below the wrist, and in his left calf, probably during his attempt to save Daphne and also direct the Thunderbolt The scar would probably take a little longer to heal, but that was fine. The purplish red to angry pink. His wrist wasn’t giving him much trouble, but he’d have...
2023-06-02 14:47:38 +0000 UTC View PostHarry peered through the trap door leading to the changing room. The crowd outside was cheering and roaring with expectation. It was the first match of the season and Gryffindor was facing Slytherin. The weather was fine, with no storm clouds and dementors around, which promised an awesome game.
And he’d be facing Daphne who’d be chasing for the other team.
Speaking of Daphne, t...

Over the last month, Harry had been to Babbling’s office three times a week, for two hours right before supper. He had always thought that Filius Flitwick was the most exuberant character in all of Hogwarts’s staff, but Bathsheda Babbling had him beat in pure enthusiasm. Over the month, she had ran him through a pers...
