MyDogIsMabel:

Will Kaneki being a magical creature affect his magic? Like, would his magic interfere with his ghoul side or will it be strengthened or will it not be affected at all?

…...

No, It would act as it did before but if he were to be stripped of all his magic he'd go into organ failure. They might react when making potions though. Like if a recipe calls for homosapien hairs and he tries to use his own, then the potion might explode. The only other thing I can think about would be gillyweed or other magical plants.

Ghouls are also magic resistant to some degree though. If a spell catches them off guard then it would probably work but if they see it coming and they have a lot of control over their RC cells then they can concentrate their RC cells in whatever part of the body the spell is going to hit them. The spell would just sort of dissipate after it hit them. If a spell hit's a Kagune though then the spell won't work. they don't need to concentrate RC cells because a Kagune IS concentrated RC cells.

…...

Random things I forgot to explain:

Kaneki's features look different from Harry partly because of aging and partly because he wanted to look like he belonged and his magic subtlety granted that. His eyes changed to grey slowly because he wanted to be more like his mother and his hair turned white because his magic reacted to his MPD (caused by Yamori).

He doesn't wear glasses because he uses contacts. Contacts make his eyes irritated and he can't see with them as well as he could with his glass but glasses breaking in the middle of a fight is a shitty way to go. Now that he's not fighting he'll start wearing his glasses more.

McGonagall is taking Kaneki to Japan because international portkeys are expensive and take forever to be approved by the ministry. Side-along apparition is much faster and easier and it would look super shifty if he insisted on going alone.

Also if there are any grammatical errors or things that don't make sense please point them out so I can fix them

…...

"Are you sure you don't want anything?" Madam Pomfrey fussed.

Kaneki had gotten out of eating anything for lunch by sleeping through it and avoided dinner by telling Madam Pomfrey that he wanted to get food from a restaurant back in Japan instead.

"Yes, I don't mind waiting," Kaneki responded politely with a soft smile.

…...

Kaneki looked up at the sound of the door opening.

"Oh professor, are we leaving now?" He asked the woman who'd just walked in

"We'll leave as soon as you're out of your rags and in some muggle clothes," Professor McGonagall responded handing the boy a bag full of clothes.

Kaneki grabbed the bag and walked into the bathroom. While he was slipping off his torn spandex suit he heard something clatter against the ground. When he went to see what it was he realized it was his mask. Honestly, he was surprised he hadn't thought about it before, his mask was something precious to him and he didn't know what he would do if he lost it. Noticing it was still covered in blood he scooped it up in his hands and started washing it under the tap when he noticed that his zipper was stuck.

He sighed, it was probably a side effect of him having let the blood dry all day. He'd have to make a pit stop at Uta's shop before doing anything else so that Uta would enough time to fix it.

Kaneki opened his bag and pull out a pair of comfy white pants with black accents and a black hoodie with white accents. He didn't notice it until he went to put it on but when he did he blushed. The hoodie was cropped, the japanese text on the shirt translated to "Masochistic Bitch", and the hood that he was planning on using to hide his unusual hair had bunny ears on them. He gritted his teeth, cursed his shitty luck, and put it on anyway. He'd worn a spandex suit with two-thirds of the back cut out so a crop top really was an upgrade. Unfortunately realizing that, did nothing to abate his irrational embarrassment.

He decided to check the pocket's of his suit just to make sure he hadn't forgotten anything and pulled out his wallet and eyepatch.

Kaneki stepped out of the bathroom cautiously. He registered Mcgonagall furrow her brow in disapproval towards his crop top. He heard her mutter "I'll never understand why muggle kids these days show so much skin." because of his ghoul hearing but was immensely relieved when she chose not to comment on anything.

Well until she did.

"Why are you wearing an eyepatch?" McGonagall asked curiously.

"Ah, I have psychosomatic blindness in my left eye. There's nothing wrong with it physically but my own mind keeps me from seeing through it," Kaneki "admitted" as his hand moved to his chin.

She nodded in acknowledgment but kept her face too calm for him to properly gauge how much she bought it.

"Shall we go?" She asked Kaneki.

The boy in question nodded, took her arm, and braced himself for the ride. Unfortunately, when he landed he still felt like his stomach had turned inside out.

He didn't register it but the moment he landed in Tokyo his body language changed. Whereas before it was elegant yet friendly like a domesticated cat, now it was on guard and skittish but not like someone just being hunted. No. It was closer to the feeling of an anxious tiger.

He knew he could take on most ghouls but since professor Mcgonagall was here not only did he have to protect her as well, but he had to do it without letting her know he was a ghoul.

McGonagall would be lying if she said she hadn't noticed the air around Kaneki change but she thought it was because of the fact that ganglords were hunting him. He was back on their turf after all and even though Kaneki hadn't mentioned it, it was likely that he'd probably done things in self-defense.

They'd landed in an empty alley relatively close to the street. Walking out of the alley, Kaneki could immediately tell they were in Shinjuku or the 4th ward.

"So, what are you planning to do?" McGonagall asked.

"I'd like to let some people know that I'm ok and tie up some loose ends before I get by bags if that's ok with you," Kaneki asked

"That's fine. Where are we headed first?" She replied.

"A friend's shop," Kaneki explained.

They spoke amicably about the sights as they walked toward Uta's shop. Kaneki considered asking McGonagall to wait outside but quickly tossed out the idea. Most ghoul shops were surrounded by ghouls and he couldn't, wouldn't risk leaving a human unattended like that.

Pretty soon they arrived at a shop called HySy Artmask Studio. Kaneki pushed the door open to reveal a store that screamed punk. A man covered in tattoos stood behind the counter talking to another customer.

McGonagall didn't know how to feel about the shop. On one hand, she would've loved this stuff when she was younger, on the other hand, she didn't feel safe but she wasn't really sure why and it was ebbing away at her.

Kaneki walked up to the counter, set his mask down, and politely waited for Uta to finish up.

"Just a moment Kaneki, I'm going to finish up with them, and then I'll help you," Uta said as he walked over to the back of the shop.

"That's fine Uta-san," Kaneki said respectfully.

The other man glanced at him and turned ten shades lighter after noticing the mask on the counter.

"Papa! I'm so excited! When is he gonna make my mask!" a little girl said.

The man's face got even paler at the realization that the infamous centipede was aware that his daughter was in the room.

"N-not now Rin. Let's talk later ok?" He told the girl who looked about seven.

The girl, Rin, peaked around her father and started staring at him intensely prompting Kaneki to raise an eyebrow at her with a playful smile, something that probably caused her father a heart attack in hindsight.

"You look pretty!" she blurted out. If her poor father hadn't had a heart attack before he definitely had one now, though Kaneki hadn't noticed.

"Oh? Thank you but I'd prefer handsome," He said with a smile. The girl still had that refreshing childlike wonder that ghouls tended to lose early on and Kaneki found out himself unconsciously relaxing.

"My name is Rin, what's your's?" She asked.

"I'm Kaneki. I couldn't help but overhear that you're getting a mask," he said.

Rin nodded enthusiastically "Yeah! It's gonna be so cool!" She boasted with a big smile. She pushed her long wavy blond hair out of her face.

Kaneki looked at her hair and an idea came to him. He pulled out his wallet and scrounged through it until he found one of the many hairbands he had laying around for Hinami.

"Come here, I'll do your hair," he offered

Her father, unbeknownst to Kaneki, was still frozen in horror as he watched her daughter walk into the arms of death. He wanted to move, to reach out and pull her away from the insane cannibal in front of him, but no matter how hard he tried he couldn't. His body was frozen.

Kaneki expertly did her hair in a cute, braided, offset, messy bun.

"It's so pretty! How can you do hair so well even though you're a boy?!" She marveled innocently.

"I have a little sister just a little older than you and she likes when I do her hair," Kaneki explained.

"She's super lucky! You can make her hair look like a flower whenever she wants," she remarked.

Rin's father looked on partly in confusion, and partly in shock. Centipede hadn't killed her. He really had just done her hair. He didn't seem anything like what he'd heard about him. If he didn't know better then he would've assumed that the boy in front of him really was just a fourteen-year-old boy.

Just then, Uta walked into the room. "I can take your measurements now. Just head into the backroom" he told Rin and her dad.

"Bye onii-chan!" The girl said with an enthusiastic wave before walking into the back room.

…

McGonagall's mind was going a mile a minute. The entire interaction between Kaneki and the little girl had been very cute and wholesome even if she didn't understand anything because it was in japanese. What had got her confused was the fact that the father looked terrified of Kaneki.

He was expecting something bad to happen if the pure horror on his face was any indication and that begged the question of why.

What did a fourteen-year-old boy have on a grown man to make him so scared? Was he a part of the gang hunting Kaneki? No, that still wouldn't have warranted that reaction.

Something wasn't adding up. Had Kaneki failed to mention something important? She knew he probably hadn't been completely forthcoming before but right now the thought of not knowing was driving her up the walls.

…...

Around 15 minutes later Uta and the others came back from the backroom and Rin gave Kaneki a big hug before leaving the store with her dad.

"You know, rumor has it that you're dead. Am I looking at a ghost?" Uta joked.

"No, I'm alive and just as surprised as you are," Kaneki responded.

"So, what do you need?" Uta asked Kaneki.

"My zipper is stuck, I was hoping you could fix it and give it a deep clean. I'm going to disappear for around a year so I plan on not using it for a while." Kaneki said.

"I'll probably have it done in about two hours. Is that it?" Uta said, making a note of everything in a little notebook.

"Actually I was wondering if you knew where everyone was hiding out after-," his voice hitched as he thought of Anteiku burning.

"I don't but there's someone who does," Uta said.

Kaneki sighed "I know that she knows but I don't want to deal with her right now." He admitted.

"I guess it would be inconvenient to go there with a human" Uta relented.

"Yeah I don't have much time either," Kaneki said

"I was going to suggest asking around but if you don't have time then Itori is your best bet. She'll only take like 30 minutes," Uta told him.

"Yeah, but those 30 minutes are going to be full of probing questions and making sure the Human (he avoided using her name because it sounds the same in english and japanese) doesn't drink ghoul stuff," Kaneki muttered as he handed Uta the money for the repair.

"Well good luck," Uta said as Kaneki walked towards the door.

"Thanks," Kaneki said as he walked out with McGonagall following close behind.

…...

By the way, McGonagall assumed that whatever Kaneki gave Uta was a mask since they were in a mask shop but she doesn't really know what it looks like apart from the fact that it's black because she stood in the back of the shop by the door.

Please review! I love to talk to you guys.
