"Fave AU"

Danny looked at the swiftly-filled boats next to the giant man calling for "Firs' years! Firs' years!" with a booming voice. The sight of the stars so bright in such an unpolluted place had distracted him long enough for there to be almost no empty boat, and trying to look for a friendly face among the less crowded ones had the slots taken from him, so he just jumped in the one where only a blond and a red-headed girl were sitting, and then they were moving.

He debated on whether or not start small-talk, but then noticed the blond girl staring at him with wide blue eyes.

"Ah- hi." He said, giving a small, friendly wave, and smiling. "I'm Danny, what's your name?"

The girl smiled wide at him. "Hi, my name is Luna Lovegood."

Danny then turned to the read-head, who was absently biting her thumb while looking out in the distance. After an awkward moment of silence –awkward for Danny, at least–, she perked up and started a little at his staring.

"I'm Ginny Weasley." She looked at him, then back down, and realized she had been munching on her thumb, which she quickly dropped.

But before another awkward silence could fall, Danny asked, "So, which House d'ya think you'll be in?"

"My mummy and daddy were both in Ravenclaw, and I would like to go there." Luna said, still smiling. After a second, she tilted her head to the side, and added "But I think I wouldn't mind being in Gryffindor. Daddy says they are a peculiar bunch."

"I will be in Gryffindor." Ginny said. "All my family has been there, I will be in Gryffindor." She sounded so certain, Danny believed her.

"I don't really know what House I'll be in, to be honest," he started, taking a hand to his nape, "my mom went to Illvermory and my dad's a muggle, but my sister is in Ravenclaw-" he broke off, suddenly frowning, "but she was so bossy this summer! I don't want her to be watching me all the time! So, I don't know what House I'll be in, but I don't want to be in Ravenclaw." He declared, with air of finality. Then, he thought of what Luna had just said, and smiled sheepishly at her, his shoulders hunched. "No offense."

Both girls only giggled at him.


By far the AU I've been thinking the most of currently :)

Don't know why this turned out so short, tbh.

Danny's still friends with Sam and Tucker, he just had to come to Hogwarts

I love Luna, but she's hard to write. Also children.
