Hey everyone,
So, no one guessed the "My Past Is Not Today" reference that was the chapter title, but I did get advised not to use the Harry Potter wiki. I am a little disappointed that no one got the reference, but I would like to try again. I CHALLENGE YOU to go onto Youtube and search up that song: "My Past Is Not Today."
I dare you,

Collin's POV

This is something I would have considered a dream come true, had I been either fourteen or younger. Yet after my fourth year had things gone downhill so fast in only two years' time that it had forced me to give up on practically everything I ever considered important in life; my crazy adoration of Hari Valivial being top of my list.
It had been that ridiculous Muggleborn Registration Committee that Voldemort brought into the Ministry that neither my brother nor I could attend our beloved school and we had worried for months on end about our friends and what they could possibly be going through under the rule of Snape and his Death Eater henchmen.
And then, thank Merlin and the Gods of Ariador, Hari had returned to Hogwarts with Ron and Hermione and the small ways that my friends had been fighting to sabotage Snape and his evil ways of ruling had been turned into a full-scale battle between Light and Dark. However, this had been one battle I had not survived.

I still don't remember how it had been as I had been so focused on casting spells here and there just to aid whoever I saw was having trouble with the incoming storm of Death Eaters and other Dark Beings, yet suddenly I was no longer on the Hogwarts grounds, yet instead of that was I standing in an unknown yet gorgeous landscape.

And now, twenty four hours later, I have discovered that I have missed five days of my friends' lives and that the time period in which I had died no longer existed thanks to my greatest idol traveling back in time and meeting both his parents as well as his grandparents. Yet I can't feel angered over my brother fading from existence.
"Not if reading of my biggest idol's past can make sure I can give Dennis a much better future to live in." Goes through my head and I ask: "Can I read next?" And Neville happily hands me the book, me trying my hardest not to look to his side where my sweet crush Ginny is seated before I turn my focus onto the latest chapter.

The Midnight Duel
Harry had … Draco Malfoy.

This alone makes the blonde in question cringe before he says: "You have no idea how grateful I am that I am getting this second chance." And Hari smiles at him as he says: "Hey, I might not be Dumbledore, but I do think giving the right people another chance makes life easier." And the Snake smiles at him as I read on.

Still, first-year … learning together.

"Wait, I thought it was tradition for Gryffindor to have Flying Class with Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw with Slytherin. When did that change?" The King asks and Sirius hums as he says: "I'm pretty sure it changed in our third, didn't it? Thanks to some random ancient Lord giving a donation to Hogwarts in return for the change?"
And Remus nods, but the king looks confused and says: "That doesn't sound right. Albus doesn't strike me as the kind of guy who would accept any amount of money for something he knows is a bad idea." Yet at this my friends and I share a look as, in Sixth, most of our classes was with Slytherin and I continue reading.

"Typical," said … of Malfoy."

"That would only have been so if you had been an Earth or Guard Elf and even then more likely with the former. But because you are a Music Elf, you have a strong affinity with Wind Elves, so flying should come as no problem to you." The king happily tells his grandson and I think: "Don't we know it." Before I read on.

He had … Quidditch constantly.

"That really is the one downside to the Wizarding World, it really has only one sport that the whole world focuses on, instead of different sports that can each get a community of fans and potential talents of their own. It really is a shame." The king says and I can tell that Ron and Charlie feel offended, yet I hurriedly read on.

Ron had … to fly.

"That is actually kind of hilarious." Hermione says and I nod as Ron asks: "What do you mean?" And Hermione answers: "Like the king says, everyone in the Magical world knows about Quidditch, while in the Muggle world, there isn't a soul that doesn't know about soccer." And while this shocks her friend, do I read on.

Harry had … the ground.

"I am so glad I grew out of that." Neville says, but then Ron jokes: "I don't know, imagine how many Death Eaters you could have tripped onto or down several staircases if you hadn't." And to the shock of some of the present ones does the boy hum before he snickers: "Good point." To which he and Ron snicker as I read on.

Hermione Granger … the Ages.

"You guys love that book!" The girl yelps, yet at this Harry asks: "Colin, can I have the book for a minute?" And to my shock does he read the last two paragraphs in a boring lecture tone that doesn't sound unlike a mix between professor McGonagall and Professor Binns before he hands me the book back and asks:
"And that is how you read that book back. Do you get why it bored us?" And the girl turns red as she says: "Okay yes, I do get that." Before suddenly Remus says: "Sirius, stop drooling on me!" And to my shock is the boy actually slumbering before he gets shocked awake and asks: "Whah?" At which I snicker and read on.

Neville was … of course.

"Wait, why didn't any of our friends write Harry?" Jaurion asks before Sirius goes on: "Heck, why didn't Snuffles and Lupin write him?" And Snuffles mutters: "I was otherwise preoccupied." And Lupin mutters guiltily: "I believed Albus about giving Harry time to settle into a new world." And to those answers, do I read on.

Malfoy's eagle … Slytherin table.

"Why would you use packages from home to prove yourself superior to your rival?" Lucius asks before Draco sighs and asks: "Even though it is slightly irrelevant, if you had known of Jaurion Valivial's royal status, would you have done the same?" And his father guiltily admits to this as I continue with the chapter.

A barn … to do.

"Man, I forgot – hah. I forgot that you were that forgetful. How long did that last? Somewhere up until third or fourth, right?" Ron laughs as he asks and Neville nods as he says: "Gran actually gave me Occlumency classes in the summer between third and fourth. Remember, because of what happened after that one match?"
At this Ron seems lost in thought, yet then I notice that Snuffles is cringing in guilt and he asks: "They – ehm – didn't give you too hard a time for that, did they?" And to my shock Neville shrugs as he says: "Not half as bad as the Carrows did last year." And this carelessness makes Snuffles cringe again as I continue reading.

Look, you … a flash.

"You know, I don't think that's true anymore." Hari suddenly says and he goes on: "As of my Patronus and the Maze, I do believe that we got two teachers who spotted that stuff way faster than she did – and treat the punishments much better too." And while Lupin turns red, do I nod alongside the rest and continue reading.

"What's going … hurry up."

By now Jaurion and Sirius have gone to sit at the edge of their seats alongside the king, all of them having deeply excited looks on their faces and this makes both Lindilwen and the queen roll their eyes, though the queen does this fondly, whereas Lindilwen does this in exasperation, yet I ignore the latter as I continue reading.

Harry glanced … the ground.

This makes the king sigh in slight disappointment and he says: "That really is something only a student can realize, but, like Divinations and other subjects, Flying really should be an elective that can only be picked if you have been proven to have the required talent." At this Harry and Ron share a glance and I read on.

Madam Hooch … for years.

"How is that even possible? I thought Malfoys, like Blacks and Potters, were taught flying at young age." Sirius says and Draco sighs as he says: "It turned out that mother had picked me a teacher who held a slight grudge against father for a Quidditch defeat in their youth." This makes the young Black look shocked and the blonde says:
"Trust me, it's not the first thing that woman did wrong. And yes, I do know what she did at the end, but trust me, that woman is the queen of ulterior motives and holding grudges." And to this I hear Ron whisper to Hermione: "And The Brewer is the King." Making the girl besides him hold back on her giggling as I read on.

"Now, when … you get."

"Back then, that had really hurt. Now, I'm pretty sure I would have been back up and casting like mad within half a minute or so." Neville mutters to himself and I can tell that this really worries the King and Queen and this makes me think: "They are not going to like the last three books." Making me read on with a grimace.

She turned … great lump?"

"I am so glad that my ego has gotten the blows it deserved and has gotten blasted down to acceptable levels – even if it took way too long for that to actually happen." Draco mutters, but then Hari looks at him in concern and says: "I moreso hate the way that it happened." And this makes the blonde send him a grateful smile as I read on.

The other … crybabies, Parvati."

Here Draco shudders and says: "One of the only good things that actually came out of the mistake I made in my sixth. The fact that she was so disgusted with me and my goal that she actually convinced mother to nullify that blasted contract; one that should have been nullified months before when I got into my inheritance."
Yet here Hari looks confused and asks: "What inheritance are you talking about? And – isn't your birthday before the end of the year?" And Draco smiles at him as he says: "Not – not that kind of an Inheritance, Hari. I – I'm a Full-blooded Veela." And this actually shocks the entire group bar Lucius, Snuffles and Sirius.

"H-how is that even possible?" Harry asks and Draco sighs as he says: "Both my parents are Veela, Hari. Only, grandfather never took that into account and – well, he killed off mother's destined mate just because grandpa Malfoy wanted to convince grandpa Black that my parents were only meant to marry each other and no one else."
"So wait, does – does that –?" Ron asks and when Draco nods at the unasked question, does Fleur ask: "But – how did you resist the allure your mate is surely giving off all this time?" And to the shock of every one of the present does Draco actually roll up his left sleeve, revealing the scorched scar that was once his Dark Mark.
"I forced the magic of that disgusting blight to overwhelm most of my senses for practically the last few years. I've been – drinking up the dark magic that comes from it just to keep strong enough to keep – hee-e-e-e-eh – serving him." The boy says, ending with a shudder and everyone looks at him shocked before Harry asks:

"Why?" And we all look at him as he asks: "Why would you force yourself away from your mate? Why didn't you just try and approach them? What on earth –." And Draco interrupts him: "It's you." These two words being enough to actually stop Harry from his questioning and causing him to look at the boy with utter shock.
"Hari, I was a dick and worse to you for years and I did everything in my power to make your life utterly miserable. Then, shortly after I got into my inheritance and realized this, did you lose Snuffles and because I knew my father was involved in that, did I just not feel like it was within my right to try and comfort you.
Instead, I acted as if I hated you, while in my dreams I saw everything that had happened in the years previous from your eyes and that made me hate all the memories where I was the culprit all the more. Hari, I'm a Submissive Light Veela born into a family of Dark Magic users. Without you to guide me – I'm just this book, nothing more.
I'm not strong, I proved that with constantly failing the task given to me in my sixth. I'm not brave, which I proved in the Battle that took place a week ago. As a Submissive Veela, I need guidance or I just lose myself to – what most Veela's call – their fatal flaws. And mine are my ego and the pride my mother fostered in me my entire life."

By now everyone has wide eyes and then Draco sighs and says: "You may think she lied to save me, but – you are only half right. She did lie to save me, but the only reason she wanted me safe was because, while we were practically prisoner in our own home, I finally convinced her not to impress her fate upon me."
This confuses everyone and Draco says: "As I said, it was grandpa Malfoy who inspired that bastard to kill mother's actually destined mate, yet mother is a very cunning person and she knew she could never get back at grandpa for that, so she tried getting back at him, through us, by forcing us into actions she knew would lead to failure.
She knew having father back up Fudge would eventually see him punished harder for his crimes than before. She knew bonding me off to Pansy would see me pushed away from any potential mate I could be born to have. She knew – she knew the monster would not see the difference between Pureblood and Muggleborn."

"THAT WAS HER?" Hari, Ron, Ginny and others shout in shock and Hari asks: "But – but – your dad –." And Draco grumbles: "The marriage contract states that father is obligated to take the blame for any acts of Dark Magic mother may partake in. She demanded on that before she agreed to the stupid contract.
And you do not want to know what kind of contract she had set up for me and Pansy – or the contract I threatened her never to set up between you and me; though I know she still did regardless of my threats. She's just like that." And while Hari cringes and shudders at the idea of a potential marriage contract, does he ask:

"So – what now?" And Draco shocks even his father as he approaches Hari, gives the boy a warm smile and warmer embrace and then taps the golden case that Hari is carrying around his neck with the Rental Rose within it and says: "Now, we wait until Summer and then see what Autumn brings us – and become friends until then."
"You're – you're okay with that?" Hari asks and Draco sighs as he says: "Part of me is, part of me just wants to kiss you with a begging plea for you to ravish me and part of me even wants to force my magic into changing me into a Dominant just so I can finally have you. But – I don't want to change and I don't want to force you.
You've been forced and cornered into more than enough situations against your will already and two of those actually took you two loved ones. I know this can't have those consequences, but – I just don't want to ever put you in a similar situation." Yet this seems to spike something inside Hari as the boy smiles and moves.
He lies a hand against Draco's cheek and to the shock of some of us, Draco included, does he softly press his lips against Draco's in a loving grateful kiss before he says: "Thanks Draco, I won't lie and say that I wondered why you were taken along, but I sure am happy that you listened to Merden." And Draco nods as I read on.

"Look!" said … smiled nastily.

"You know, now that we know what we know about Draco, I feel safe in telling you about this little something that had actually been going on in the underbelly of all four Houses." Neville suddenly says, a sneaky smirk on his face as he looks at how Hari and Draco are sitting lovingly closed together and he snickers:
"There was actually a bet going on between all four Houses that the tension between Hari and Draco would either explode in some sensual ravishing of either of the two or one of them killing the other, though by the end of Fifth, the former was actually in the lead, in Sixth the latter and last the two were actually tied neck a neck."
This actually shocks the two in question and Draco asks: "People actually thought that we – were a thing?" And Neville snickers as he says: "Yeah, they even betted that, in Fifth, Harry would just snog you to shut you up and – well, I think we can both guess what they were talking about after the sixth year final Quidditch match."

And this actually makes many of those around me look at Ginny, who looks strangely proud of herself, that is until Draco says: "Thanks for that one, Gin." And everyone shares shocked looks between the two of them before Draco turns Hari's attention back to him as he caresses his cheek and softly says:
"I just wanted you to be happy and didn't feel like I could do that, so I worked my hardest to make you suspicious of me while making a special deal with Gin-Gin at the same time. Though I will leave the explanation on that deal to her." And this makes everyone turn to the girl, who says: "Not now." At which I just read on.

"I think … ignored her.

"I do hope you won't ignore this." Draco says to this, tapping the glass case and Hari says: "I won't, but even if it links me with someone else, I won't ignore your needs either." This shocks Draco and he says: "But – Hari –." But the boy kisses him again and says: "No buts." Making Draco smile at him gratefully as I read on.

Blood was … looked stunned.

"You have no idea – darn it!" Draco snarls and we all look at him as he sighs and says: "Sorry. It's just – not admitting what I just did helped me just behave normally. It kept most of my Submissive characteristics under control. Now – they're almost overwhelming me." This shocks some of those around us and Hari asks:
"Overwhelming you how?" And Draco sighs: "You promise you won't freak out?" Hari nods and Draco whispers something in his ear that actually does make Hari tense and his eyes widen, but he doesn't respond otherwise until Draco pulls away and the first thing Hari says after that actually shocks us all:
"That is – so hot." And while this makes Draco look at him shocked, does Hari then shake his head and turn a little red himself as he says: "But – eh – I'm not sure I'm ready for – ehe – something like that, at least –." And the look he gives Draco actually makes me blush myself as he says: "Not yet." Before I hurry up my reading.

"Give it … his fist.

And though I have seen the boy perform many crazy acts just like this in Quidditch matches, do I still feel my eyes widen and does my voice turn awed as I read this description of the event before Jaurion whispers: "Even I would sprain several muscles at a stunt like that." And while his three friends nod I agreement, do I read on.

"HARRY POTTER!" … me, now."

"Wow, she must have been really flabbergasted to not even hear her own students out. She usually stays composed and gathers all the facts before she takes any kind of action. You must have really scared her, kiddo." The King says, yet then he turns worried when he sees Hari, Ron and Hermione share a look before I read on.

Harry caught … to him.

"Okay, she's up to something." Jaurion mutters and he goes on and says: "This was the same way she treated Pete, Siri and me when she believed we had discovered about Remy's furry little problem." And while this makes a loving, reminiscing smile grow on my old Professor's face and his friends nod, do I continue reading.

She wrenched … Hagrid's bag.

"That would never happen." The King says and he goes on and says: "The Royal advisors have long since been enchanted to sense when a drastic event changes the daily life of the Royal family in such way they are better off living back in the kingdom. If you had been expelled, they would have come to pick you up right away."
This shocks Hari and then he shocks us all and says: "Founders damn you, Dumbledore! Why didn't you just let Fudge expel me?" And everyone looks shocked and he growls: "Don't you guys get it? if I had been expelled, I could have ordered the royal advisors to let you come back here with me and none of us would have died.
Then my hand wouldn't have been cut into on a daily basis, Snuffles wouldn't have had to survive his own personal Azkaban, he wouldn't have died –." But then Draco says: "And I wouldn't have been able to have you as my mate." And this shocks Hari before he sighs and mutters: "Good point." Before I read on, feeling shocked.

Professor McGonagall … a moment?"

"Wait, what's going on here?" Jaurion asks and Hari has a wistful smile on his face as he says: "McGonagall made one of the best decisions between now and the decisions she made during my Seventh for the sake of the other students." And while he takes his broom back on his lap and starts caressing it, do I read on.

Wood? thought … a Seeker."

"Ehm, excuse me?" Jaurion asks shocked and Sirius wiggles a finger in his ear as he asks: "Did I hear that right?" And Hari nods, yet even Jaurion notices that he is too busy being happy with his broom and so he starts sharing a slowly growing smirk with Sirius before the two shock all of us as they suddenly jump up.
"HE'S A SEEKER! HE'S A SEEKER! HE'S A SEEKER!" And while this shocks all of us, are the Weasleys the first to recover before I see Ginny and the twins share a special smirk and suddenly they are doing the same, making Mrs. Weasley groan and Mr. Weasley laugh and while the cheering is slightly distracting, do I read on.

Wood's expression … done it."

At this the second eldest Weasley looks thoughtful and then says: "On a school broom, I probably wouldn't have been able to pull off pulling up in time. On a regular broom, I might have just scratched myself. At that age – I would have crashed for sure." And to this his closest brothers laugh and I continue reading.

Wood was … punishing you."

"I know you don't like hearing this, but I think she still should have issued out at least an essay on dangerous stunts or given you at least one night of detention, just to show that she cares for your talent and your health." The queen tells her grandson and Hari smiles at her while Jaurion shouts: "Mum!" At which I read on, laughing.

Then she … player himself."

And yet that is all that it takes for Jaurion to share another glance with Sirius, but before they can continue their dancing and chanting, does the queen pull her son down and does Remus do the same with Sirius as they chorus: "Enough, no more embarrassing us." Making the two boys in question turn red as I snicker and read on.

"You're joking."… a secret."

"Yeah, that lasted all of two days, really." Hari snickers and the twins actually stop their own chanting and dancing as they turn to Hari and say: "You can blame Lee for that one – though we are partially to blame as well. You'll see in a sec, we think." And the young prince nods at them and the twins retake their seats as I continue reading.

Fred and …. See you."

"That's what we meant. We had actually proven to him that we knew of this one and he didn't take this lightly, especially when he realized we had reason to be proud ourselves because of how good we heard you were from Wood, so he decided to snitch on you. Seriously, he was such a kid." George tells us before I continue reading.

Fred and … who's yours?"

This makes many of the older Weasleys turn on Ron, yet before even Mrs. Weasley can start shouting, does Luna say: "You so would have done the same for Hari." And the calm, assured way that she says this shocks them out of wanting to shout before some of them start to look awkward and I snicker as I read on.

Malfoy looked … cold pie.

At this Mrs. Weasley again wants to turn on her son, but then Luna says: "That's his upraising talking.""How dare you say that?" Bill snarls, yet Luna remains calm and asks: "He was raised in peacetime, wasn't he? With barely a mention of what the war was like?" And this calms both Weasleys down as I read on.

Catching the … of you."

"Hermione, three things. One, there is such a thing called tradition and honor. Two, this really wasn't your business and your intervening will not earn you any points as a potential friend. And three, Hari didn't even know what a wizard's duel was, so you should have been admonishing Ron." The king jokes at the end and I read on, laughing.

"And it's … block them."

"You know, the wording could have been better, but that is seriously some real solid advice right there." Remus says and Hari nods as he says: "Dodging and avoiding spells I don't recognize have definitely saved my life several times the last few years." And while this makes those of the past look at him worried, do I read on.

There was … a frown.

"Hermione, can I ask you just one question; just one?" Lindilwen asks and when Hermione nods, does she ask: "Why not just report them? You know they were in the wrong, right?" Yet the girl shudders and says: "I made that mistake a few years later. Never again, Lindilwen, never – again." And while this confuses the girl, do I read on.

"You!" said … Switching Spells."

"They are showing Gryffindor pride, this is a matter of pride, not selfishness, neither do they and that will never happen." Remus tells the girl, but then I get shocked when Hari, Hermione, Ron and Neville all get their faces turn dark with betrayed fury as Neville snarls: "That's what you think." At which I read on, feeling shocked.

"Go away." … are not."

"Hermione, it really would have been better for you to just leave them be and go explain to McGonagall why you were out after –." Yet here the girl stops as the same dark look of betrayal crosses the faces of the same four students and then Draco sighs and says: "I hate Easter." At which I read on, feeling confused.

"D'you think … me up."

This is one sentence I actually read with wide eyes and then the sound of several hands hitting foreheads rings through the room before Jaurion says: "Hermione please – stop acting like a teacher. It doesn't suit someone your age and doesn't help your case." And the girl in question turns slightly red as I continue reading.

"You've got … a minute."

"So why didn't you just go to the Great Hall after?" Lindilwen asks and Neville turns red as he says: "The only path there that I knew was being blocked by Peeves and I actually got lost on my way to the common room a few times. By the time I got there, dinner was over." This makes the girl look at him worriedly and I read on.

"Good – well … a corner."

"Draco please tell me you didn't." Lucius groans and Draco turns red as he says: "One of mother's lessons. The best way to humiliate an enemy is to get them in trouble with those that hate their kind the most. It was just a choice between Filch and Uncle Sev." And the other blonde groans, yet nods and I continue reading.

It was … trophy room.

"Uh oh." Peter mutters and we all look at him as he says: "The Charms corridor is linked to that corridor Dumbledore mentioned at the Start of the School year speech. There is no way they don't mention that fact without this going wrong." And this fills the whole group with curious concern as I continue reading the chapter.

"I think … told – you."

"Hermione!" Sirius shouts at her and he goes on: "That is in the Top 5 sentences Teenagers Never Use Against Other Teenagers!" Yet this shocks the girl and she asks: "Wait, it's in – what list?" And Sirius actually fakes fainting in a very dramatic way, which makes Hermione just look at him quite befuddled as I continue reading.

"We've got … was Peeves.

"You kids have the worst of luck." Peter moans, yet this makes me share a large grin with everyone who was in Dumbledore's Army and we then shock the timid little man as we chorus: "I don't go looking for trouble, it always finds me. Hari Valivial 1995-1996." And we all laugh at his, Hari slightly red before I read on.

He caught … it, listening.

"And now you're going to be face to face with the reason why Dumbledore locked off that corridor, aren't you?" And while we nod, does Ron shrug and say: "To be honest, it was scary, but nothing we can't handle." To which Hermione hits him over the head and says: "Now." And this worries the royals as I continue reading.

"Which way … so far.

Yet while I have no doubt that, whatever this is, it is nothing compared to what we have been through for the last few years, do these words still affect Hari as he looks down in pain and instantly Draco proves himself Submissive as he cuddles into Hari in an offer of comfort and Hari smiles as he embraces the boy and I read on.

They weren't … yellowish fangs.

This shocks everyone who never heard of this and then Sirius mutters: "Wow." Before he turns to Remus and states: "And you keep saying that you have the worst luck of the world. Theirs is way worse." And Remus nods before he shakes his head and asks: "Wait what?" And this breaks the ice and makes me read on laughing.

It was … that monster.

"If only I could have done the same with that filthy murderer." Hari mutters as he hears this and Draco growls caringly to comfort him as Hermione says: "You could have, Hari, only – he knew how to turn your greatest strength into a horrible weakness and use it against you, at least at first." At this Hari nods and I read on.

They didn't … speak again.

"Back then I hated that event, but now – I wish I had been more involved in your guys' adventures." Neville mutters softly, but then Ginny asks: "Are you sure, Neville? Are you sure you would have been able to handle it? To handle – my first?" And the guy cringes before he mutters: "I guess not." At which I read on.

"What do … standing on?"

"Hermione, for Merlin's sake. Unless they are trying to suppress their fear by distracting themselves, no one would ever think of looking anyway away from the threat at hand. Plus, the only reason you were there was because you were interfering." Sirius jokes at the end and Hermione turns red at this as I continue the chapter.

"The floor?" … to bed."

"Hermione, the last thing someone your age should do, especially in a situation like that, is behave like I did. With a holier than thou attitude that makes you sound like a teacher or something when you were just as in the wrong as they were." Percy says and this actually shocks most of his family as Hermione nods and I read on.

Ron stared … thirteen was.

"And the plot thickens." I hiss at the end, causing snickers all around before I sigh and ask: "Knowing Hari like I do, I'm going to assume that we officially skipped the peaceful chapters." And Ron laughs: "Yeah, those only last until Halloween. Then all hell breaks loose." And Hari glares at us as we all burst into laughter.
Then the queen scraps her throat and says: "It's getting late. Let's all return to the Dining Hall, have some dinner and then call it a night. And, if none of you disagree, we can probably read the rest in the Gardens tomorrow." And this instantly makes Neville send begging eyes to all his friends, causing another wave of laughter.

Hey everyone,
So I am probably going to do about ten story episodes per day that passes in the world and some of these groups will be filled with mostly CR chapters, others will be mostly focused on character development. However, I will never do a group of just CR or just character development chapters, they will always be mixed.
Okay, so now Draco and Hari have at least acknowledged the bond between them and Draco has given a bit more backstory into why he was such a bastard. Also, I do hope I made some people think, especially when it comes to Neville and why it was only after curfew that he was found by Hari and his friends.
Okay enjoy,
