For as long as I can remember, there was only one truth. Respect authority, but I never questioned who the real authority was. - Hermione Granger to Su Li on her reasoning's behind why she chose as she did.
Harry had been busy practicing. He almost felt as if he was a beginner again as his magic seemed quite chaotic as it tried to settle. He found he had to restrain his magic so as to not overpower his wand work and his potions seemed to be more potent and stable than they should have been. That hadn't even brought into account the new form of necromantic magics he had access to now. He had felt the silver and knew that it was far more potent than any of the other forms. He did wonder what its specific nature really was.
So he had started to practice again in the Room of Requirements. He had resumed his drills with the dummies, and he had found that the silver flame was trickier to call and even more difficult to control. Still, while it took time away from other research he knew he had to not leave such an unexpected area unexplored. He had some frustration from being unable to call forth a pure silver flame for any length of time, but there were other things on his mind.
"This is so damn complicated," Harry growled out as the silver shifted to black and the effigy of Dumbledore screamed before collapsing in ash. "I just know that this will be important! Besides I cannot stand coming so close and failing."
"True, so very true," Hermione said from where she was half watching him, reading a new tome in advanced charms and going over the bulk potions brewing with Su and Dora's help. "Perhaps it is one of those forms of magic influenced by emotions more or some other factor. There wasn't much on it as it was."
Su looked up from where she was working on Owl level healing potions and said, "There isn't much anyone can do to help. Even in my family there is barely more than myths and legends in the specifics of the gift you received. I knew enough that it was a very high honor, but the specific effects and enhancements are less known. Some things are just not to be written down for some reasons, and there had to be a reason that so little information is present. I do know from some very carefully worded inquiries that Silver Necromantic Flames have some aspects in common with the Black and the White Flames, but exactly how they differ; I do not know in particular. I am sorry that there isn't more that I could provide, sir."
"It is alright, Su," Harry said with a sigh as he reformed a new target. "I guess this is one of those times when experimentation would be useful and necessary. There just seems to be some other factor that I cannot grasp just yet. So how are the potions doing?"
"Fine, sir," Su said as she double checked the color, texture and thickness of the exorbitantly priced healing draft. "I did manage to also get the line on people wishing to acquire potent ingredients and it is merely getting them there with security and stability that would be any concern, sir."
"Night has been showing some new signs lately," Hermione said as she moved over to go over the messages from Surrey. "No ministry or other bird could intercept before, but speed and carrying ability has been limited to some extent. While he is unable to move exactly like a phoenix, he is able to travel through shadows including his own now. It does seem to bypass wards similarly to a phoenix would and he now seems to have gained the ability to carry far more than his weight should allow."
"Well that will be useful," Harry commented as he contemplated on trying to think of a different mental state than his frustration had been providing. "Is there anything else to be discussed while we wait for things before studying some more and then relaxing?"
"Not really," Hermione said as she continued to go over the rather long communication. "It seems that business is doing well and that Dudley is being even more restrained than one would expect. Sarah has some headaches from the mountains of paperwork you left, but she has been getting enough relaxation with some employees. Hmmm... Claire seems to be trying to be as forward as possible and it seems there is a bit of competition with the girls there to see if they can get Alice, Anne or even Sarah to recommend them to help entertain you. It looks like the summer will be heavily mixed between work and play. In addition to Claire, Sarah is quite adamant that there is a rather intriguing girl by the name of Judith that would be a wild ride. You do seem to have the problem of attracting willing females without really trying. The magically aware girls are starting a betting pool about wither or not a Veela tries to trip you into falling into her or if they will just jump you."
"Not too unexpected," Dora said from where she was glaring at her cauldron with annoyance present in her features if not her voice. "You are good looking, well behaved and decent financially or most believe. All of those things do tend to make one attractive for such interests. You also do come off as a protector and you did get a lot of positive attention from the girls back in Surrey because of it. They likely would have jumped you one day if they hadn't thought that Alice and Anne had dibs. Think about it as being able to fulfill a fantasy, they want to have at least one go with you and since you have showed no problems with the girls you have been with nor gone out and bragged they feel safe. That Alice, Anne or Sarah gave blow by blow descriptions of how good the sex was even if they glossed over some of the kinkier aspects would have excited them."
"It is not too different than here, sir," Su said as she went about moving to the finished potions and bottling them for storage and transportation. "If a girl is not serious about whom she is with, she would readily be interested in having an intimate encounter with you. To young and not so young witches, you are more of an icon than sports or music stars. There are a number of witches and muggle girls as well that would have little regret for spending such close contact even if short in time with a celebrity or otherwise famous person. It is simply the fact that you haven't been either roaming from girls bed to bed or having them come warm yours that is making them feel more anxious. There are going to be some that are more than crazy. While they would likely readily accept if you hiked their skirts up and just plowed them against a wall, some will be obsessive to possibly think or love or lust potions and charms."
"Considering what the books said about you, I was shocked that you were that Harry Potter and not just the Harry Potter Alice and I were in competition for," Hermione said with a frown. "People like that whiny Weasley would likely think that you are drowning in willing wanton witches, because they see Quidditch starts surrounded by girls and they fawn over them even the Harpies have men and women following them."
"I guess it would be foolish and naïve to ever wish to be just normal Harry," Harry said with a self deprecating snort before he managed to get the Silver flame to last for a while on the Petunia doll. "Now that was odd, but it will take a bit to qualify the exact mental state to utilize it properly. There were only the slightest hints of other fire in that last wave. Hmm, I really do wonder where they got all those supposedly accurate information for a biography. I don't recall building sandcastles at the beach or even going to the ice cream parlors before hooking up with the girls. It just wasn't my thing I suppose and it seemed like something frivolous that Dudley would be momentarily amused by..."
"A sad thing, sir that books can't be as reliable as one wishes as they are influenced by who writes them," Su said with a nod as she dutifully wrote the labels for the latest potion batch. "Besides some things are stranger than fiction, but people tend to be sheep like at times. They prefer to be comfortable than worry about other things. Dudley seems like the sort to have a very short attention span and will likely become no one of importance."
"Considering that those people said such lies about your parents," Hermione said with a sudden flare of rage at not being allowed to help make the Dursleys suffer or better die in agony. "It will be quite ironic that their son is heading towards being what they tried to portray both yourself and your parents as. I will admit that finding books to be inaccurate was quite upsetting almost as much as finding out what had been done and tried with my cousin and her friend. If it hadn't been for you, I would have likely developed a slavish devotion to authority figures for finally stopping the harassment I went through. It could have been far worse..."
"Yeah it would have," Harry said with a scowl as he tried to replicate the mental state he had been in before. "Seems that one of your teachers had been planning to try something, but died before he could."
"I see," Hermione said with sudden coldness. "It is a shame that I didn't know or I could have as they say killed two birds with one stone. While I don't regret anything I have done including the sacrifices, I will admit that I feel that Alice and Anne to a lesser extent look down at me for not taking that final plunge..."
"It changes you," Harry said with a look of concentration as he tried again with doubles of the now deceased Lestrange Brothers. "It may not seem like much to some, but there is something that happens then and it is heavily influenced by intent..."
"Intent is very important, mistress," Su said as she started to gather the requested potions for shipment. "In the older magics, this is more so the case than the more modern forms. Spell casting by wand waving and incantations are less so affected; although, the grey and dark arts are more prevalent on intent influenced spells. Still there are some things that are not so readily accepted as truth, but despite what people wish there is a truth out there."
"And there is nothing more precious than the truth," Hermione said with a sigh as she started to realize what they were telling her. "It is a beautiful yet terrible thing. I don't plan to ever let myself become as twisted as some, but I know there will come a time that I will have to kill a human. I just hope that I will take it as well as I must."
"You will," Harry said with a firm of conviction as he looks on in shock at what happens to his current targets. "It seems I understand some of this now. The intent is far more important and this flame seems to affect the body, the mind and the soul. Shocking that it seems to be far more flexible than any of the others and yet I can feel there is a restraint to it. I doubt that it would ever let me harm the true innocent and that such acts would be rather contradictory to the influence from the unicorn..."
"That would make sense, master," Su said as she finished assembling the package for transport. "May I ask Night if he will deliver this, sir?"
"Yes, Su you may," Harry said with a sigh as he called for someone in whom he had nothing but apathy as even the hate had been drained out. "Hermione, I think we will need to send a letter to the Flamel's soon. I suspect it will need to be well thought out and lacking in any attempts at intimidation. I don't think I do well at that at this time so some input would be appreciated. Given the oddness around Quirrell and the legendary curse on the position, we can always hope that we get a Wizarding equivalent to a wandering worker next year or having some other issues. It would kill two stones for you."
"A first righteous kill and cementing that all other authority figures are nowhere near as trustworthy as you are," Hermione said as she closed her book and thought on things. "It would be ideal, but knowing our luck he would be some celebrity or something. I think you would feel motivated if any teacher here did stuff like that, but given the whole Sarah thing you are not trying to have a double standard. I take it you don't care about age but the way that they do not care about the willingness or not of the involved."
"Hmm given the way most witches are following him, I think that Gildroy Lockheart would be a likely choice as it would also allow him to sell more of his books," Su said as she thought on it as she watched Night carry the package to a shadow and vanish. "I rather find his books to be barely well thought out bodice rippers, but there is little of educational worth there. A former Auror or the like would be a better education wise choice, but, since Lockheart is an honorary member of the Defense League, I can see him having believable credentials."
"He would be an interesting target," Harry commented as he loathed the press conscious man. "I wouldn't mind feeding the photogenic and charismatic fame seeker to Lady Silver though..."
They looked at him when he said that. There were a few people that Harry had that particular tone for. Unfortunately, they suspected that Harry hadn't found a way to send a howler or other enchanted or more accurately cursed letter to the man. It likely wasn't for want of trying, but as much as someone that sounded that self-centered there was a healthy paranoia any celebrity would need. The Wizarding paparazzi were far worse than the muggle at times, but at least the wizards could apparate away and keep them out with wards.
Dora had been quite proud of the progress she had been making with Penny. She had been enjoying their time together more so than before as she had started to drive the girl mad with her denied opportunities for more. She had enjoyed being the master and mistresses plaything, but she realized that like them that she had found a thrill on being on the other side of that kind of dynamic. Dora fondly recalled watching Hermione being worked up as Harry took her dominantly and the way her lovers had enjoyed that before they had jumped her and driven her mad.
'I suppose that there is really not that much of a difference between us,' Dora thought as Penny yanked her into her room and started kissing her passionately. 'I think she is getting worked up enough to finally make a real decision for the most part. She probably would go for glamour charms on both now and be willing to do a lot already. Considering that she tries to suck any Harry leaves inside me when we meet, I think she is rather more interested in at least a suck from someone that she has pouted at being too good tasting compared to her attempted boyfriend.'
Dora took charge of the kiss and soon had Penny on the bed with her legs quickly spread. She worked the girl a bit before trailing her way down and proceeded to try to cave Penny's head in with her lingual skills. Dora had long since explored every bump and crevice of Penny's sex and she could quickly morph her tongue for maximum sensations. She had learned better than to try to talk to the girl when she was this wound up, but she likely would have a chat once the girl had gone limp.
"I appreciate this so much," Penny managed to sigh out when Dora let her rest for a short time. "I still can't get that ass of a boyfriend to do more than light petting! I don't think he will ever be ready to return some oral pleasure and will likely go for rutting! If he has anywhere as low a duration with penetrative sex as he does with just a hand or mouth, I will be a very frustrated girl..."
Dora switched to caress the still shuddering sex of her friend after giving it a kiss of appreciation. She gave a few visible swallows as she turned her head to look at her friend's panting face even if she lingered in watching the way her body moved. Dora was quite enamored with both bodies male and female. Do to that, she did tend to gaze longingly as the muscles moved from Penny's panting and the way it moved her aroused breasts.
"And I will be happy to help remove that frustration," Dora said as she set her head to rest on Penny's warm thigh. "Any chance you are any more decided on that other matter?"
Her friend trailed her fingers gently through her hair as she seemed trying to decide what to say. Dora relaxed into Penny's caress and waited for her friend to answer her question. She had come close to almost convincing Penny in the heat of the moment to swear to it, but had felt a bit deceitful to use the girl's need for release to get her to swear to go through with things. She had wanted to see how Penny would be in other aspects, but Dora was well aware of how displeased Harry would be.
"I am thinking about it," Penny admitted with a sigh as she felt her breathing start to be less strained. "I just don't know how to go about it, and there is the whole trying to work things out with the sort of boyfriend..."
Dora gently stroked Penny's still flushed thigh and contemplated things. She really wanted to do more with and for Penny, but she understood that she did want the whole attempt at dating to work. From her descriptions of their encounters, Dora really would have told her to dump him even when she had just been the confused Tonks. Still it would take a few minutes to sort her thoughts and Penny petting her head like that made the thoughts both more fluid to reach and that more difficult to hold onto.
"So you have made some decisions," Dora said with a slight purr as Penny really seemed to bring the pet out in her lately. "You do want to do this but are conflicted in that you think you might be somewhat steady or exclusive with this guy. I won't force you or anything, but I might try to convince you since I just can't see this working if he has so little concerns for your own needs. He hasn't done more than wind you up and I think that is a good indicator how he will be with the rest of his sexual relationship. I don't want you to get into a relationship with a minute man on the outside. I have not been lying about things as you well know."
"I just don't think that having a master and mistress is what I really want," Penny said demurely as if she half didn't believe herself. "You have been pretty adamant about how good your sex life is in comparison to mine. I rather feel better that you don't use their names as it shows you won't use mine. I will admit that I miss a proper fucking with a nice hard cock and all the imitations seem to come so short of the real thing. I just don't think I will like some of what you asked..."
"What the fact that I seem to love getting it up the ass?" Dora said with a giggle. "Don't knock it until you tried it and more accurately tried it with someone who knows how to do it right! So it's not like you have to spread your ass and let him give you a reaming or anything. I can understand why they put the constraints on that they do. For a while I was completely sex crazy, and if they hadn't taken me firmly in hand I would have likely been used like a school broom. It is not that different than normal dating as they do assert some of the same privileges. It was with it though to give up some things to be with them."
"They can say what you can do and you like it," Penny said with a snort of indignation and amusement. "I get that they are making allowance for our unusual relationship since you say our discussions help clear things up, but that you gave control on what happens to and with your body seemed extreme. I will admit that I might have said I would do something of the sort in the heat of the moment, but most of the time I worry too much about other things."
"You worry about how it would affect your reputation and life," Dora said with a slight frown. "I get that, but as we have discussed it is quite easy to arrange things so that neither you nor my other lovers know exactly who each other is. I mean fucking you with a toy is one thing and so is lapping you, but you did admit that you do miss being fucked proper. So is it really bad to get some delicious and warm stretching in while also getting access to totally stretch and handle this lovely and magically perfectly fit and snug cunt?"
"You have been making that argument and it is so hard to say no to it," Penny said with a slight frown of her own. "I will concede to taking that up if things don't work by summer..."
"Why not get a sample over our short break?" Dora asked as she contemplated the lack of class and other diversions and the time it would allow for a proper persuasion. "You could come up to my room with a disguise and I bring him or them and see where things go. I will say that you will be hard pressed to say no one he starts. Hell, he can give the most toe curling massages that can take you from 'just let me be' to 'get back here and pound me until I am limp'. He really seemed to like winding me up..."
"Do you know how long it has been since I had a decent back rub let alone a massage?" Penny asked with some irritation from the lack of boyfriend attention. "While I will sympathize that you were wound up, you at least have gotten some response. He may be a guy, but yours at least reciprocates. I think that boy would likely turn his nose up if I asked him to give a kiss let alone a lick!"
A moment passed as Dora thought this over. Penny had just given her some more ammunition in her quest to get her onto a proper guy, and if it was her master than it would be better for both of them. Dora knew she wanted to cuddle Penny while Harry alternated stretching them as he showed how good he was at sending a girl to the small death. She would likely never tell Penny that he was just as good at causing the permanent kind until it was far too late. Dora was just looking out for her older sister/lover and letting her constantly be left frustrated by her current beau was not looking out for her any more than letting her get used by the outside world. Dora knew enough now that Penny would need a patron if her dreams were to come true. Still there was a chance here to reel Penny in if not land her soon.
"Now while he lacks the flexibility of my own tongue," Dora said with a smirk as she saw Penny starting to take the bait, "you would be hard pressed not to grab his head and kiss him before demanding that he fucks you when he gets started. He is very good for a guy. I think he had a large amount of experience with that as it was. I won't tell you more just that he was bugged for his massages during that time and he seems better than those potions for making it far more than bearable..."
Penny looked thoughtful at that. Whoever Dora's master was, he took care of his girls and seemed to have been skilled and sociable enough to attract girls when they were used to dealing with the boys think they have of they think the boys have cooties stage. He had to be something to have got enough practice to be so good at using his hands. Her friend had told her of some of the encounters, but like her own relationship she knew that Dora refrained from names.
"I wouldn't mind a massage during those times," Penny admitted with a tinkling bell like laugh. "Oh I admit I would like to meet this guy, but I don't make any promises on what will happen...'
"Of course," Dora conceded with a smirk hidden by her hair. "Just remember you didn't promise what won't happen. When he is involved, you should better be prepared for the unexpected..."
"I suppose you would know," Penny said before pulling Dora up and kissing her. "I still would like to see what you look like when you are being stuffed, but I don't know for sure if I can comply. It may happen and given what you said about your master it is a possibility. At the very least I will get to see what you look like when your sweet little pussy is stuffed and then filled with his cum."
"Since you want to see me in that position, is it any wonder that I want to see you in the same?" Dora asked as she leaned over before teasing Penny with fingers and lips. "Now I think I will go for how you look stuffed if not sprayed with delicious protein rich sperm..."
With that Dora proceeded to mount Penny and see about giving her a few more body wracking bouts of pleasure. Still Dora was more concerned with Penny than her own pleasure at this time. That did not mean that she was not going to get her own fun out of this. While Dora felt the thrill of satisfaction and a few shudders of pleasure, they were pale imitations similar to a half worthwhile bit of self exploration.
Dora watched as Penny flopped about and thankfully didn't fall asleep or pass out this time. The girl was a friend, but it was just rude that she would act so like a man at times. With Penny awake if not completely passionate, Dora crawled up and let Penny rest her flushed head in her lap.
"You look so gorgeous when you are getting stuffed and stretched," Dora said as she gently teased Penny's mussed hair. "It just makes your face shine and there is a distinct look to it when you cum. Not that you don't look cute when you are getting your goodies, it is just that you look more ecstatic when your sweet pussy is being stretched full."
"You are so good to me," Penny admitted sounding very mellow and content. "It is so much better with someone here than doing this by myself, but still there is that one thing missing..."
"Don't you worry now, I will set things up and if you both click you will get that missing feeling dealt with," Dora said with a smile at the very amiable girl. "Now I normally don't ask this as you tend to get so worked up you don't relax until you pass out, but would you mind giving my poor neglected little muff a bit of attention? I barely got what I consider a quickie now..."
"No problem," Penny slurred looking for all purposes as if she had a few too many shots of fire whiskey. "Least I can do for such a good friend; especially if you can get this horny hottie a good round of loving."
With that Dora just relaxed and let Penny drive her passions to elation. She just had to arrange things and everything would work out. Harry would get a very hot and eager girl to explore, and she would get to explore some as well. So far she was plotting out the one thing she had been hesitant to have Hermione do with her. Sure she had been double teamed, but that was different from being double stuffed. Dora was trying to avoid pressuring Penny, but she really wanted to have a three way with Harry and Penny. Besides there was the fact that Dora really believed that Penny needed a good man or at least a firm and dependable cock in her life to be happy.
