The Ravenclaw Trio

Anthony Goldstein and Michael Corner are complete opposites. They meet each other in first year through Terry Boot, who is the perfect mix of the both of them, along with a few other qualities. Anthony is the more quiet one, the sensitive and compassionate one out of the three boys. He's thoughtful and intelligent, and studies in a very Hermione-like manner.

Michael is loud and boisterous. He enjoys taking the mickey out of Padma Patil and Su Li. Though Michael is brilliant, he's rather lazy, but manages to do very well in his classes. Big-headed at times, Michael can be and is often regarded as a pompous, arrogant jerk, but deep inside Michael cares for his friends in the way most Hufflepuffs would.

Terry Boot is studious, though he doesn't mind taking frequent brakes for quick games of Quidditch or Exploding Snap. He cares for his friends and can understand where they're coming from. He plays jokes on everyone and enjoys making people laugh. For some reason, he has a rather off-color sense of humor and can adopt a rather fowl mouth at times, but usually Terry keeps that bit of himself to himself or to Anthony and Mike. He doesn't want to scare off the birds that fast.

Tony and Mike don't hit it off automatically; Tony finds Michael to be loud, rude and crude while Michael thinks that Tony should "loosen up a little and live life". Tony replies with a shocked, "We're only eleven!"

In second year, the three stick closer together when the attacks on Muggleborns begin. Terry, though he doesn't often show it, is scared out of his wits, and Anthony and Michael don't want their friend to get hurt.

In third year, they mutter about Sirius Black. In fourth year, they cheer Harry on, even though Michael still thinks that Harry is far too scrawny to do much of any thing. In fifth year they join the D.A., and work together closer than ever to get back at Umbridge. Terry especially enjoys his assigned duty to cause as much mayhem as he can. In sixth year they fight the Death Eaters together, protecting each other and their classmates.

Seventh year is a blow to all of them; Terry has to shove his parents into hiding and lives with Anthony while Voldemort's regime begins, Michael's Muggleborn father is killed during a Death Eater raid, and Tony is their buffer from it all. Tony is the one that keeps them together, comforts them and cheers them up. Michael gives him the name 'Mummy' one evening, who is trying his best not to weep over his father's death.

Through thick and thin, the three Ravenclaws have stuck together, and never will they part.


Author's Note: So, this isn't the best piece of writing ever, but it's all that I could squeeze out for Mike, Tony and Terry, as much as I love them. I am currently working on a one-shot for Ginny, Luna and Neville, and after that it is most likely that I will veer off from the cannon trail and have this little series to be compatible with my AU(-ish) story "A Thing Called Magic". I am in the process of re-writing it, and will repost after I have a good six chapters done. I will keep you all updated on my LiveJournal (see my homepage on my profile).

If you have any requests/suggestions for a trio, just state it in a review! :) I'll be more than happy to write something.

Remember--reviews are the only payment fanfiction author's get!
