Imagine this, you've just turned eleven and your dream of being a student at the london school of ballet has fanally come true. You're on cloud nine then you're suddenly being shoved underwater as you're told you have a gift that can't be taken away because you'll be permanently handicapped, preventing you from becomeing a ballerina of any kind. The world was crashing as you had no option to leave your childhood ambitions behind, all the blood, sweat, and tears for naught as you were told that dancing alone was better than not at all. Just a few days ago you where happy and now you layed with your parents crying out to the fates and their crule views of a gift at the cost of a dream that you've had for years.
Magic was a curse in Vivian's eyes. The pain she couldn't rid herself of . She was sure that if she were an ordanary child the thought of magic and leaving the dull 'muggle' world behind would be obvious, but she wasnt 'normal' for the love all things holy she wasn't even born a girl. Being trans is taboo but she was starting to be accepted as such since everyone has only ever know her as Vivian and not as Daniel.
Her parents could afford the operation because they are successful peoole in their own individual right, mom is a business woman who has a reputation of being relentless and fought hard for her ambitions. Her father clawed his way up to becoming the medical director of the top hospital in Great Britain. He met Serena at a fundraiser where they became financial parters and created a pharmaceutical company that expanded into the many branches in the medical feild. During all that they got married and had Vivian in their forties.
FIVE YEARS LATERIn the years that followed, Vivian's introduction to the magical world her life took a sharp turn, her ballet filled mind also inclued private magical lessons by a hogwarts graduate, the mundane world had more job opportunities. So while he taught her magic at a steady pace not quite ahead of her would be class mates but not really following their pace, sometimes ahead othertimes behind. Her schedule was packed she rarely had free time and whenever she did naps were her companion.
Life at the academy is amazing in every way. Three years in her 'gender situation' as her best friend affectionately calles it became public knowledge around campus but accepted although bulling wasn't unheard of, her group of friends are super protective. Her technique was flawless, well without Madame Ramona in the room because then she is a desaster in need of more practices. She loved her life even if her schedule was probably three times more packed than her firends. Mother and Father didn't want her to be stupid as they so elegantly put it, so the occational private medicine and business classes were the norm.
Its not like she is spoiled, but she is realistic and knows she doesn't know any real stuggle outside of dance. And Vivian has seen real spoiled girls ,and boys, who act like the world owes them for their miniscule strugles in life, At least she has a strict lifestyle.
Professor Sprout visits every month or so to make sure that Hogins' is on the right track for Vivians lessons. The professor has made arrangements with the other tachers for essays by haveing them delivered by owl. Vivians favorite class is Potions followed closely by the History of Magic and COMC. Transfiguration and charms are okay but if given the option the former three are something she would rather study. Ruins, Arithamacy, and Astrology are the last three she would ever consider studying because, well they give her a headache with how complicated it is, everything has a double meaning if you rotate something just ninety degrees in any direction and some looke the same no mater how much you look at them and... they give her a migraine and leave it at that.
Vivian was tired she just finished an essay on the affects of the lunar cycle in certain ingredients. A fascinating peice of information but a monster to write down. Hogins told her that all of the essays Professor snape has given her are harder than anything he's ever written when he was her age.
sitting on her bed she looks ack at the difficulties of the past five years and how much her life has changed. Although Hogins is eight years older than her he's like the brother she never had. Even mom and dad adopted him as part of the family, they all helped him get back up to speed with the mundane world and he told them about the wizarding world, he's taken them to diagon ally multiple times so that they could get acuante themself with that world. Vivian got jester, her owl, on the first trip there. Mom being an opertunist at heart wasted no time in talking to the goblins about their investment in the muggle world. They were impressed and well lets just say she dissapears from time to time and comes back with a large smile talking about a new invester in the company and budget increases. Dad being a researcher at heart sends letters to healers and potion masters with questions. She's pretty sure he's in contact with Professor Snape.
Her mind turns to the one thing she's stressing about as of late,auditions for the nut-cracker start in three days and getting the main part would be a dream come true. Although nerves corse through her vains doesn't mean she's not confident she'll get the part. A smile forms on her face as her thoughts turn to her firends. Evalin is a crazy bitch who love to party and have fun. Jasmine is a bookworm who loves to dance. Steaven is a smartass idiot who started ballet because of a dare and ended up loving it. Of course their are more boys but Steaven is the only one who is worth knowing acording to Vivian. Thay were the only ones that stuck by her when her status of being a trans woman became puplic knowlege.

The next day Vivian sits in class laughing as Evalin describes her date with Sanderson, a jock at a nearby highschool.
" He was a total arse, absolutely no respect for ballet and thought I was a grass eater, for hevens sake just because I'm thin doesnt mean I eprived myself of a good pizza. The nerve."
"He might have been nervous, it was probably his first date ever." Jasmine says as she ties her ribbons.
"As if, he told me he as an ex-girlfriend it couldnt have been his first date! Oh! It couldve been one of those kiddie relationships where holding hands in the playground counts as a date." A snort escapes as she streaches.
"Like your first boyfriend Eva. Ryan was a gentleman back then." Vivian says
"I know! what happened to him he's an evan bigger arse than this one." she sighs
"You broke up with him, thats what happened. You turned him into a playboy." Vivian laughs as she warms up.
" I most certainly did not, he did that all on his own."
"He did follow you like a baby duck." Thay all laugh at the memory of a boy doing whatever Eva said.
"Your horrible Eva, the poor boy never knew what was comming."
And just like that Madame Romona's class from hell started
Waiting in the parking lot for Paul to pick her up Vivian was talking to Evalin, Jasmine, and Steaven about the upcoming audition for the nut-cracker.
Paul pulls up.
"How are you paul."
"Well enough Vivian, could use a little more sleep."
"Baby still not sleeping huh."
"Oh she does, just not when the sun is out, at this rate she will be nocturnal."
"Just be patient, it'll get better eventually, you'll just have to get used to sleeping less."
"Oh I am, just wish I didn't have to, My wife and I loved to sleep in. But what can we do we did name her luna, after the moon, we were asking for this when we named her."
"Its such a beautiful name to, perhaps when she grows up she'll be an astrologer."
"Who know if I can handle that, a night owl for-
