James Potter's Brilliant Idea
Prologue
As soon as James Sirius Potter was deemed old enough to be told the truth about his heritage he had assumed that, as Harry Potter's eldest child he would be the next "famous Potter", he was wrong. James did make his mark of course, when he entered the Hogwarts great hall for the first time and the crowds of students were faced with Harry Potter's son, James did get a great deal of attention. However it was what happened after that caught James by surprise. In his first year at Hogwarts James quickly established himself as the new bad boy and head of, as he and his friends thought themselves, the new marauders. With the arrival of his second year James had expected to continue this line of attention and popularity within Hogwarts, and that most probably wold have been the case if it has not been for one tiny little problem. Albus Potter. Now James loved his brother dearly as could only be expected in a family such as the Weasley-Potter clan, but he had not expected Albus to intrude upon his territory. By half way through the year James had to admit that Albus had over taken him in social status at school. The fact was Albus looked the part, he was the spitting image of Harry whereas James was such a blend of both Harry and Ginny that he didn't really look like anyone, it was easy for people to forget that he was Harry Potter's son too. To stack the odds even further against him was that coinciding with Albus' arrival was the arrival of both Rose Weasley and Scorpius Malfoy. Everyone in the school knew that the combination of a Potter, Weasley and Malfoy in the same year could mean nothing other than gossip, and plenty of it. Finally two years later little Lily Potter entered Hogwarts with Hugo Weasley, this was news because Lily was a girl a female Potter, that hadn't happened before so people became fascinated with her as well. So by the time all three Potters had enrolled at Hogwarts James, although a Quidditch hero, happy and popular, he could not help but feel slightly resentful of all the extra attention his siblings got instead of him. He was an attention seeker and with namesakes like his it was hardly surprising. Although James' luck was in by the end of his sixth year when he was able to make the front page of the Daily Prophet...
