17-year-old Dublin dreamed all her life of attending Hogwarts, but her parents kept her home, telling her they preferred to educate her themselves. Upon their death, her eccentric aunt, tired of sharing the bathroom and the cinammon waffles, sends her to live her dream. At school, however, Dublin gets a little more than she bargained for: she's got to somehow complete a mysterious task she doesn't even fully comprehend, her magic is acting all . . . funky . . . and, oh yeah, as if that wasn't enough, she just might be in love with The Boy Who Lived.

Dublin meets the eccentric, welcoming, and slightly unsettling Professor Dumbledore.

Dublin meets McGonagall, Hermione, and Ron, tours the castle, once again encounters the magnificent Harry Potter, and prays to be struck by lightning. You know. The usual.

Dublin does battle with the tyrranical Madame Pomfrey, gets more inscrutable advice from Professor Dumbledore, and finally gets to sniff her own Hogwarts sheets.

Dublin's life suddenly takes a turn toward normalcy. There are absolutely no demanding portraits, troublesome House Elves, or horribly embarrassing clumsy moments in this chapter. OK, that's a vicious lie. But wouldn't it be nice?

Really, I think I'll leave this one as a bit of a surprise. I think the title should give you enough to be curious about :)

Dublin takes out a Slytherin, finds herself suddenly on Professor Snape's bad side, and gets a rather long lecture from Professor McGonagall about responsible use of her powers.

Dublin gets caught snogging in the library and does a little late-night exploring.
