A.N. — I start a pair off today by going from a student who appeared in one book (OotP), to one who wasn't in any of them, nor the movies. Guess which one has a robust fanon presence, and which remains anonymous? Tomorrow's character was also only mentioned in book 5 (hint, hint).
294. Tracey Davis
Crushing on your best friend is excruciating. When said friend is the Ice Princess of Slytherin and you're her half-blood, still closeted, roommate already struggling to fit in with her house, the end goal only seems more unattainable.
Welcome to Tracey Davis' life.
Having Daphne in the next bed over is sweet torture. Hearing her housemates spew pureblood drivel is just plain torture. Tracy could listen to Daphne's cultured voice dispensing wisdom (never prejudice) endlessly. Daphne's among the smartest in their year, but she's clueless about one thing: Tracey's feelings. Tracey's still unsure whether that's a saving grace or not.
