A/N: Hello Everyone and welcome to chapter 4! This is the last build up chapter until we get back into the main storyline when Harry is 15. This will touch on some of Ilvermorny, in which I did a lot of research to make sure it was as close to canon as possible. That being said, I hope you enjoy!
Chapter 4
July 31st, 1986
Five years… Five years of living in America with his cousins, five years of taking care of his godson, without his parents. Sirius watched with a smile on his face as a now six-year-old Harry ran around with his cousins. Thomas, now nine, and Jimmy, aged eleven. Watching his son, 'Son? Man, he is as good as', laughing and smiling made Sirius so happy for him. He knew Harry needed this because Harry finally learned about his parents the other day.
July 28th, 1986
"Sirius?" Sirius looked up from his paper, he saw his son standing there, a nervous look on his face.
"Yes Harry? What is it?" Sirius felt like teasing a little bit "Looking to ask for a last-minute gift for your birthday even though Aunt Terri said not to ask me?" The smile fell from Sirius's face when he saw his godson fidget "Harry? What is it? You know you can tell me anything."
His godson looked up at him, green eyes shining, "Can you tell me what happened to mom and dad? You've avoided the question, but I'm going to be six, I'm a big boy!"
Sirius reached out and ruffled Harry's hair, "Yes you are getting big, but I still don't think you're ready to hear the whole story," he raised his hand to stop Harry from saying anything "but, that doesn't mean I can't tell you some of it." Sirius pulled the chair next to him out and patted it, "Come sit down while I tell you." When his godson was settled, Sirius took a deep breath. "I want to start by saying your parents loved you very much, and that they'd be proud of how much you've grown, and who you're becoming." Harry smiled softly; Sirius continued "Your parents were killed by a very bad wizard when you were only one. He killed them because he was afraid of them, and what they could do, but when he tried to harm you, they sacrificed themselves so you could live, they loved you that much." Harry was crying at that point, and Sirius wrapped him in a hug, he held his godson for what felt like hours, and when Harry settled, Sirius pulled back and smiled at him, his own eyes full of tears. "They loved you so much Harry, and I miss them every day like you do."
Harry had looked up at him. "But why them Sirius, and why me?"
Sirius shook his head, "I'm sorry Harry, but that is why I wanted to wait until you were older, that will have to wait." Harry nodded, thanked Sirius and left, quiet, with his head down. Sirius sighed and looked up at the ceiling; "Lily, Prongs, I hope I'm making the right choices, and that you're not disappointed by my attempts to raise him. I promised I'd do my best, but I hope I'm fulfilling that promise." He folded the paper, finished off his coffee, and headed out, knowing he had some time before dinner. 'I need a drink' he thought.
July 31st, 1986
"Sirius!" He was jolted out of his memories, when a laughing Harry ran up with Thomas behind him, the two are covered in grass and their hair was all over the place, "Harry! You look so scruffy! What happened?"
Thomas laughed and nudged Harry "Scruffy! Haha! I love it, you're now Scruffy because you're not hairy enough to be Harry!" Harry glared at his cousin,
"I am NOT scruffy! Don't call me that!" Sirius joined Thomas in laughter.
"Whatever you say… Scruffy!" Harry cried and lunged at Sirius, who morphed into Padfoot and ran off, a laughing Thomas and irate Harry on his heels. Several hours later, after food had been eaten and presents opened; Harry was particularly excited about the new laser tag set he got from James. All six of the boys were excited, and many hours were spent playing that. The pet dog Harry got as well that he named Charlie. That confused Sirius mainly because it was a girl, but his own Animagus form wasn't as generic. Harry loved it however and promised to take good care of her. Sirius went to bed hoping that he'd made the right choices, and that Harry would remain as happy as he appeared today.
September 1st, 1991
"And are you sure you have everything dear? You've packed everything you need?" Harry rolled his eyes at the four men standing behind his aunt, who was currently fussing over him.
"Yes, Aunt Terri. I'm fine, honest, I triple-checked everything, and I made sure Charlie was properly prepared too."
His aunt smiled and hugged him to her, and pulled away, "Good, I'm glad." She then turned to those behind her, "Now you two better take care of him you hear? I don't want anything untoward to happen."
The two youngest men stopped laughing and walked up to them, "Don't worry Mom, we'll make sure he's fine, especially if he joins me in Wampus." That was Thomas, who turned 14 in two days.
"No, he won't, he's clearly a Horned Serpent with how much reading he does." Jimmy had walked up, the prefect badge sitting on his robes. Jimmy was 16 and beginning his NEWT studies.
"Hm, you could be right there Junior." The third man, who was clearly the father of the two lads had joined them.
"Ah c'mon James, Harry clearly takes after his father and I, mischievous to the end, and looking for adventure, So I think Thunderbird."
James Black glared at Sirius. "Of course, you'd say that you… what do you Brits say? 'You bloody Gryffindor'?"
Sirius barked out a laugh, "You got it right, but regardless", he got down in front of Harry "It doesn't matter where you go, just know that we'll be proud of you no matter what."
Harry smiled and pulled his godfather into a hug. "Thank you, Sirius, I'll make all of you proud, even mom and dad."
Sirius sniffed and held Harry around his shoulders. "I know you will Harry, I know you will." Sirius pulled back and ruffled his hair "Now go on Scruffy, the portkey won't wait forever." Harry glared playfully at Sirius but moved over to where Thomas and Jimmy were waiting. He took a deep breath and grabbed the portkey right as it activated. The three of them appeared in a clearing, where a short-grey creature holding a list was waiting.
"Portkey from the Black residence, party of three. New students please step to the left, current students go right to the building." It said in a bored voice before grumbling something that sounded like 'ungrateful little shits.' The creature was a pukwudgie, one of the houses and the creature that also helped around the school. The resembled goblins, but with grey skin instead of greenish. Thomas and Jimmy bade Harry luck before they moved off, calling out to assorted people they saw, clearly visiting with friends. Harry followed a few other eleven-year-olds to the left, and they were directed to another clearing where you could see the school. Harry had heard stories and saw pictures of Ilvermorny and Sirius's alma mater Hogwarts, but to see one of them in person took his breath away. The Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry stood a grey castle, with two large statues in front of the main doors. They were statues of the two founders Isolt Sayre and James Steward, who was supposedly a No-Maj. The rest of the castle looked grand, but what caught Harry's attention was the doors opening and a young man came walking out.
"Hello new students, my name is Agilbert Fontaine, and I am the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. I will be leading you into the school to be chosen by our school guardians." There was a murmuring that followed that statement. Fontaine smiled, and gestured behind him, "Now if you'll follow me, we can begin." The collection of students followed the professor through the giant doors, with each statue flanking. The gasps of wonder that filled the room was paramount, children gazing at the room with amazement, Harry followed the crowd and his eyes widened. He had walked into a circular room, the ceiling reaching high to a glass dome: light coming through as the mid-day sun began to rise in the sky. Following the light downward, Harry spotted a balcony further up, where he saw a large crowd, consisting of the older students and professors. Harry spotted his cousins near the front, and he could see Thomas had a smile on his face, noticing, he then shot Harry a thumbs up, and Harry smiled back, giving a small wave. His gaze then shifted below the balcony to the room proper. The circular room was dominated by the four statues of the houses. He looked to his left, seeing the Pukwudgie and Horned Serpent, and following the circle, the Thunderbird and Wampus came next. His gaze followed the statues to the floor where a large Gaelic Knot, more specifically a Gordian Knot was set into the floor, it was outside of this circle that the students were halted. Professor Fontaine turned to them and smiled, "Welcome, to the selection hall. It is here where you will be declared a member of one of our four houses. They are the Horned Serpent, Pukwudgie, Wampus, and Thunderbird. Each covet different traits, and only the guardian statues truly know where you belong," He flicked his wand into his hand, and summoned a parchment into his hand. "When I call your name, step into the middle of the circle, and be judged." He unrolled the parchment "Allen Charleston." Harry had zoned out at that point, listening to a few names being called, which it clearly was in alphabetical by first name, so he had a while to wait. He clapped politely when each person was selected, some having to choose between two different houses. Finally, "Harrison Black" was called, and Harry stepped forward. There were some murmurs from the balcony, Harry even heard someone behind him whisper '4th son?' knowing that he looked nothing like the known Blacks, but the family agreed that it was best to adopt him into their family, with Harry Potter believed to be dead. Moving into the center, Harry gazed around at each statue, wondering which would choose him. After what seemed like an eternity, the Horned Serpent's horn lit up, the Wampus Roared, and the Thunderbird flapped. Harry heard more mutters, more than two guardians choosing a student was rare, in fact, the last time someone had more than two selected was Seraphina Picquery, the President of MACUSA in the 20's, who had all four choose her when she went to school.
"You must pick one, Mr. Black." Harry turned to look at Professor Fontaine, who was smiling patiently. Harry turned back and thought for a couple seconds before he looked at the Thunderbird and bowed slightly. The statue flapped again, and Harry felt a wave of magic flow over him, and he heard more applause from the students behind and above him. Harry pulled out his wand, as was customary for new Ilvermorny students to cast their first spells when they were sorted. It was an Ebony wand, 10 ¾ inches with a Gryphon Tail-Feather. Sirius had told Harry that gryphon tail-feathers were a common core for the Potters, considering his father had one, and his grandfather as well. Harry raised his wand, and stated "Lumos." A light came out of the tip of his wand, bright and strong. More applause followed and Harry joined the few students standing by the Thunderbird statue. He gazed up at the statue, knowing that the next few years of his life were going to be quite interesting indeed.
July 31st, 1995
Harry sat, stunned at Sirius's story and spoke up "So what now? Do we stay here? We haven't been to Britain for fourteen years Sirius, how do we know we can trust this Dumbledore?"
Sirius sighed, and ran a hand through his hair "We can't, at least we shouldn't. The issue is that he says that I've been cleared of all charges. They apparently found Peter where Voldemort was supposedly resurrected, and he confessed to the events of October 31st, 1981." Harry was stunned, the real traitor was caught? Sirius had continued after that, "therefore I'm required to return to manage the Black family estate, since Mother died last year. That means I'd have to return anyway. Now the real issue is the note that came with it, from Cousin Andi."
"What does it say?" asked Terri, Sirius handed her the note for herself to read while Sirius answered.
"The British Ministry of Magic passed a law that all England-Born heirs must complete their OWLS and NEWTS at Hogwarts. Andi says that it is believed by those on the light side that this is Voldemort's plan to control the future of Britain." Terri handed the letter over to Sirius and went and wrapped Harry in a hug while Sirius continued. "Luckily, Dumbledore is still Headmaster, so the influence will be minimal. Andi says that hopefully the Wizengamot will slow down any more radical legislation. This one was well received by most, including those of lighter leanings." He put his hand on Harry's shoulder, "Unfortunately, since you're my declared heir Harry, that means you have to attend Hogwarts and complete your exams."
Harry could not believe it, leave Ilvermorny? Go to a new school in a dangerous country during one of his most important years yet? He didn't want to leave the second home that he'd had since they'd left Britain the first time, but looking back on it, maybe going to a new place will finally give him something he's missed since Thomas and Jimmy left: Friends. Harry never had classmates he really connected with while at Ilvermorny. Since his first year there, he'd established himself as a gifted student, excelling in his classes, and gaining a lot of attention from his professors. This sadly, didn't sit well with his peers, many were jealous of his success, and the rest were intimidated because of his family. The American Blacks, while not nearly as dark as the British branch, had a reputation for not being a family to cross, they dealt in politics and inventions, focusing on moving the American wizarding society forward, leading the charge themselves. They had made a few enemies along the way, and most of those who opposed them were swiftly removed from their positions of power. This ostracized Harry, and instead of worrying about it, he delved into his education. With Thomas and Jimmy's advice and guidance, Harry became formidable in the inter-school dueling circuit, with a tendency to swiftly defeat his opponents with little hesitation. Harry had no interest in participating in either Quidditch or Quadpot, and that did not help his standings anyway.
This trend continued into his second and third years at Ilvermorny, the only difference is that Harry did start a companionship with a young first year in his fourth. Jimmy had left school, going to work on his mastery in enchanting, and Thomas was focusing on his NEWTS and prefect duties, so he didn't have time for Harry as much anymore during school, so Harry was relatively lonely most of the time. That changed one day when he was in the school library working on homework.
September 22nd, 1994
Harry sat at a table, surrounded in books, he looked up at a group of fourth year Pukwudgies who were staring at him, when they noticed they looked away, whispering. Rolling his eyes, Harry turned back to his work, but he did see something appear out of the corner of his eye he spotted a younger student struggling to grab a book from a shelf. Harry sat up and walked over, drawing his wand as he did. He muttered Wingardium Leviosa under his breath and the book slowly pulled out and floated down into the astonished students' hands. Harry spoke up as he neared them.
"You know you can use your wand, right?" The student squeaked and turned around, and Harry was met with the rich brown eyes of a very cute girl, with a Wampus on her robes. Harry looked down at her with a small smile on his face and the girl looked away, clearly embarrassed.
"I'm sorry," she said softly "I sometimes forget that I can do that, after growing up without magic."
Harry wasn't surprised, "So you're a First Gen?" The girl nodded and shuffled her feet, the book clasped tightly in her hands. Harry bent down in front of her. "No need to be scared miss...?"
"Davidson, Renee Davidson."
Harry held out his hand, "Lovely to meet you Renee, my name is Harrison Black, but you can call me Harry."
The girl looked up and met his eyes, "You're Thomas's brother!" She exclaimed and smiled "He was so nice to us when we first got here, and even led us around the school for the first few weeks so that we could get used to the layout, he was so nice!"
Harry laughed, "That's Thomas for you, but don't let him fool you, he can be crafty if he wants to." He stood up, "Now, what did you need this book for?" The girl held up the book and Harry noticed it was a transfiguration book. "Having trouble with transfiguration? How about you come over to my table and I'll help you out." The two students spent the next few hours going over Renee's classwork, and Harry enjoyed helping her out, it made him feel like he was the older sibling this time, and it felt strangely good. The two of them continued to meet periodically over the year, Harry helping Renee whenever she needed it, and Renee giving Harry a friend to talk to. Harry hadn't felt any happier while at Ilvermorny than he had when he spent time with Renee, and it wasn't long until the end of the year approached.
June 19th, 1995
Harry stood, along with the rest of the Black family as Thomas and the rest of the graduating class of 1995 waved farewell to Ilvermorny for the last time as students. He could hear the slight sniffles from his aunt nearby, and Sirius nudged him. Harry looked up and raised his eyebrow.
"In just 3 years this'll be you Harry, try and find some friends next year? Now that Thomas is gone, you have no one."
Harry shrugged, "I just haven't been able to connect with anyone my age, it's almost like none of them really care about getting to know me." He paused, "but I did in fact bond with a young first year girl this year…"
Sirius laughed, "Little young don't you think little Prongs?"
Harry punched Sirius in the arm, "Shut up Padfoot, I think of her as a younger sister, she annoys me, I help her if she needs me, and we give each other an ear to listen to our problems." He shrugged "besides, while she's cute, I don't find her very fanciable, not just because of her age, but also she just doesn't interest me like that." He then turned back to where Thomas was approaching, the cap perched on his head, and his diploma in his fist. He first hugged his mom and dad, Aunt Terri blowing her nose into a Kleenex afterwards. Michael, who Harry hadn't seen in a while, and Jimmy were next patting their brother on the back and hugging him. Finally came Harry and Sirius, who shook his hand, while Harry wrapped Thomas into a hug. "Congrats Thomas, I'm happy for you!"
Thomas laughed and hugged Harry back, "Thanks a bunch Harry, I'm glad you aren't too upset I'm leaving after this year, but hey, at least little Renee will keep you company." As if summoned, Renee came running out of the crowd and jumped onto Thomas's back.
"Congrats Thomas!"
Laughing, Thomas pulled her off of him and hugged her, "Thanks, Little Cat, I appreciate it."
Renee pouted, "Don't call me that! I'm not a young child!"
Thomas raised his hands in surrender, "Okay, fine." He then snapped his fingers and reached into the inside of his robe "That reminds me…" He pulled out a letter. "Give this to your folks when you get home Renee, it's an invitation to our family barbeque. We have one every summer, and we invite our friends and neighbors to come over. Even though you live in Colorado, this will make it easier to get there." Renee took it from him and nodded. Thomas continued: "This isn't just an invitation, it's a portkey as well. If you and your parents wish to come, just tap this with your wand and say the key word, which is rainstorm. This will bring you to our portkey spot. Everything else you need to know is in the letter." Renee smiled, hugged Thomas again, said thank you, and rushed off, heading towards the student exit, where her trunk and portkey were waiting to take her home.
Harry smiled and wrapped and arm around Thomas's shoulder, them being basically the same height, "And here I thought I was the softy. She got you wrapped around her finger too?" Thomas nudged Harry off him.
"Please, it's my duty as her prefect to make sure she's taken care of, and since you basically adopted her, I might as well invite her." The others agreed, and they went off, heading home for the summer.
July 31st, 1995
Harry was roused out of his reminiscing when his Aunt spoke up. "So, when do you leave for England? We still have the barbeque on August 5th, and I don't want to cancel that." Sirius took a sip of water "I'd like to leave as soon as possible, but I don't want to miss the barbeque either… How about we leave on the 8th of August. It's a weekend, so the British Ministry won't be as busy, and getting there will be easier too."
Harry spoke up, "but our lives are here Sirius, what about that?" Sirius laughed drily.
"I never had one outside of you and this family Harry, and I know you never really made friends at Ilvermorny. This is also a chance for you to experience Hogwarts for once."
Harry was still struggling with that, "So this is an attempt by Voldemort to control the future of Great Britain, and used the highest authority to do it?" Sirius nodded, Harry got up and started pacing, his slipper-clad feet making little noise on the floor. "So now what? Harry Potter is dead, and I doubt many will believe we're related just by looks alone." Sirius sat there, contemplating the question, and he looked over at Thomas who'd cleared his throat.
"We can just say that you're from the American Branch, nobody in Britain would know what they look like since we don't do business with anyone there, and while Harry may look different, the black hair could be considered a family trait."
Sirius nodded, and smiled at Harry, "We'll use Harrison Black II as your persona, you're records at Ilvermorny are under that name, which would make the transfer to Hogwarts easier, and hopefully that means we can use that to our advantage, you don't even look like James anymore, heck if Lily and I had a kid, that's what you'd look like."
Harry made a face, "Gross, I did not need that image," the room laughed, and then Thomas spoke up.
"It would add more credibility if there was someone other than Sirius and a child that is the same age that Harry Potter would be if he hadn't died and is called Harry. So, I'll come too."
Aunt Terri immediately jumped, "No, Thomas you've just been accepted into the MACUSA Auror Academy, you have a future here, I can't let my youngest walk into a warzone!"
Harry could see the fear in her eyes, but Thomas quickly rebutted, "Mom, I'm an adult, I can make my own choices, and I can apply for the transfer program, while Britain doesn't trade with us, the ministries do have some connections, and Auror transfer programs are fairly common. I met a few that were here for a year, during my internships, and I want to help Harry. He's my younger brother, and I don't think I can do it here." He looked at his mother, "I love you, and I know all you're doing is trying to keep me safe, but I want to be an Auror, it's a job that puts me in danger." He hugged her "I want to do this, for Harry."
She wiped her eyes, and hugged him back, "I know, I guess I was afraid, and I don't want to accept my baby boy is all grown up." She turned towards Sirius after pulling away "Thomas will come with you, and aid you in the ministry, you'll need all the contacts you need." Sirius nodded and wrapped an arm around Thomas,
"I will make sure he's cared for, and I appreciate the help he'll bring." He turned to Harry, "we leave on the 8th, make sure you have packed only the essentials, mostly casual clothes. I have a home we can go to, and most of our supplies we can get in Diagon Alley, the shopping district." The two boys nodded, and Thomas bade them all a good day as he went upstairs to get ready for the day, Harry went to do the same; "Harry." He paused and turned around. Sirius lifted up his helmet he'd just gotten. "Go get changed, we still have that ride to do." Grinning, Harry spun around and headed upstairs, excited for the awesome ride ahead of them.
August 5th, 1995
Harry made his way around the backyard, with Charlie on his heels, greeting the numerous neighbors, family friends, and even some cousins from the east coast that had come over to visit. He was halted from his visiting when a small girl sized bullet rammed into him, the arms immediately going around his middle.
"Harry!" came the exclamation. Harry looked down into the smiling face of Renee Davidson,
"Why hello there Renee, I'm glad you could make it!" He hugged her back and pulled away when a couple walked up behind her. The thing that surprised him the most was that it was not a man and a woman. It was instead two women. "Hello, you must be Renee's parents, I'm Harry Black." He shook their hands, the one on the left spoke first,
"Hello Harry, I'm Samantha Davidson, and this is my partner Elise Larsen." The other woman smiled in greeting. Samantha continued, "we were so happy to hear about the friend Renee made at school. She'd never had many, considering many considered our relationship to be… unnatural." Harry smiled at them.
"As long as you both love Renee completely, I don't see what the problem is, but this isn't the place to be discussing stuff like this, c'mon Renee, let's see if we can't find Thomas." They bid the two women farewell, and headed off, looking for Thomas, as they walked Renee was talking a mile a minute about all the different things that she got up to over the summer, including her birthday gift which was a beautiful barn owl she named Vada after her favorite movie character. They made their way through the crowd, and she had spotted Thomas talking to his grandfather Harrison by the house. Renee hugged Thomas and started talking to him about the same things she'd told Harry. Harry stood there smiling fondly at the two of them, and Harrison patted him on the shoulder. "She is something isn't she?"
Harrison laughed, "Reminds me of my daughter when she was that age, excitable and friendly to anyone she liked. Became a real problem when she got to dating age." He rubbed his chin "She was very popular, and therefore was desirable, not just because of her name of course. I digress though Harry, how does it feel knowing that you're heading off to jolly good England? I myself haven't even set foot there, and my father grew up there."
Harry shook his head, "Honestly? I'm terrified. Sirius said that the monster who killed my parents has returned, and I'm heading right into his grasp. How can I not be scared knowing that?"
Harrison was about to reply when behind them they heard, "Harry you're leaving?" they turned around to see Renee standing there with Thomas right behind her. Harry ran a hand through his hair and winced.
"I was hoping to be able to tell you myself Renee, but I have to go to England. My uncle Sirius is from there, and as his heir, I need to go with him. This unfortunately means that I will not be returning this year to Ilvermorny, I must attend Hogwarts while we're over there." At this point Renee looked like she was about to cry but grabbed Harry into a tight hug. He could feel her shaking slightly, but no sound came from the girl. He rubbed her back, and just stood there quietly. After a few minutes, Renee pulled back and looked into Harry's eyes.
"You better write to me you hear? I want to hear all about your time in England, and you better come visit." Harry's own eyes became watery, and he hugged her again.
"I promise you Renee, I'll make sure that you hear everything from me, and I'll be visiting for the holidays, so we'll see each other around Christmas." Renee smiled and nodded,
"Good! Now I'll feel better!" she grabbed his hand. "Let's go get some food!" She dragged him off, Harrison and Thomas laughing at them. Harry couldn't help but smile at this, knowing full well that he'll definitely miss this little spitfire.
A/N: I hope you enjoyed this chapter, it is much longer than the others, and I anticipate they will remain around this length for the foreseeable future. I wanted to just touch on a few things:
1. Professor Fontaine is canonically the Headmaster of Ilvermorny at the time of Cursed Child. Since this takes place well into the past from there, I had him as a regular professor at the time.
2. Harry's wand. I actually looked up wand cores and wood choices and their connections, this was a choice based on my version of Harry, who A: didn't grow up in England so he couldn't claim the Holly wand from Ollivander, and B: He grew up loved and cared for by a family, something Canon Harry didn't have.
3. I alluded to this all the way back in chapter 2, but if you noticed, Harry doesn't have the trademark scar, Sirius healed it. This is because in this world, Voldemort doesn't have Horcruxes, I just feel like the whole hunting for them wouldn't be very useful if the characters of the story hadn't been in England for over 10 years, so Harry doesn't have his scar, except for a faded line, and no Horcrux hunt in this story.
4. Renee will return! I've been reading a lot of stories recently that have Harry with a younger sister like character, whether it was Astoria Greengrass because Harry was with Daphne, Ginny, or even Luna in some cases. I wanted to have my own character, but wanted Harry to have someone from Ilvermorny he bonded with, but like I said, the Blacks in America have a reputation too of being a family you don't cross.
5. I looked up same-sex relationships in Colorado, which is where Renee is from, and it had been legal to have a same-sex partner since the 1970's. Marriage wasn't legal, so they aren't married, but Renee considers them both to be her parents, regardless. Harry, was raised to not judge people, so he doesn't care that they're both women. I am an LGBTQ+ ally, and I'm bi myself, so I wanted to represent a historically accurate relationship, while still giving the community a place in my story.
6. For how Harry looks, Sirius says that it looks like he and Lily had a kid, which isn't very far from my vision, think Goblet of Fire Harry, but his hair is less.. wild.
Any questions about anything else, feel free to PM me or leave a review, I may not respond, but I am reading them!
I plan on having chapter 5 out in the first week of March, and want to keep a beginning of the month update schedule following, so hopefully I can stay on top of that!
Sorry for the long note at the end, but I felt like I needed to hash some things out, and if you still have something to ask, like I said, Ask away!
Cheers,
Rei
