Chapter 3 - Chapter 3 - heading to hogwarts

Text(Potter Mansion)

The day Harry was waiting for had arrived at last and he was starting it with a morning blowjob from his cousin. "So. Today's the day huh." Harry smiled as he snuggled with his cousin after she took care of his morning wood. She packed the night before and promptly apparated over so they could have one more romp before the school year started.

"Yep. You're finally at Hogwarts and I can't tell if I like it or hate it." Tonks teased as she pecked him on the cheek.

"I get it Nym. We've been talking about going to Hogwarts together for years and now it's here. Sadly you'll be in Hufflepuff and far busier than I am because you're a 7thyear." Harry said with a bittersweet smile. All the years of waiting patiently for Tonks to return from Hogwarts were over but her schedule was far more chaotic than his would be.

"That.. and there will be plenty of girls your age to occupy your time. Given all the photos you've got over the years you probably have quite the list to choose from." Tonks smiled bitterly. 

 "I will but if you think any of them are taking your place, you've got another thing coming." Harry reminded her. Tonks was special and he would never let her forget it.

Tonks smiled but she was curious about something, "Speaking of those girls, you could've been fucking every last one of them since we started our thing by using my powers, but you've never once asked me to do that? Care to explain why?" Tonks wondered. Thanks to her Metamorphmagus abilities Tonks could be pretty much anything a lover wanted: bigger breasts once in a while for boobjobs; getting rid of her gag reflex for blowjobs: she was pretty sure she could make herself a virgin again and they could recreate that. Her most insane ability, was the ability to transform into anybody who she saw a photo of with very little effort. Considering Harry got quite a few photos from fangirls once he turned 11, he could've had her imitate those girls appearances. The fact he didn't was a mystery and one she sort of wanted to find out.

Harry smiled, "I could have but there are two problems. These girls went out of their way to send me photos of themselves. It would be cruel to abuse that trust by making you imitate them in bed. Plus, it makes it slightly less awkward when you meet them for real."

"Fair point. Imagine how awkward it would've been meeting Lyra if all you could think about was the time you shagged me as her. It was pretty awkward already from what I've heard" Tonks smiled. When Harry officially became the Black Heir 2 years ago Lucius had a fit and tried to question the legality of it because Harry wasn't a true black. When that failed, he ordered his wife to reach out to the recently reinstated Andromeda hoping to find something that could help him take over the family again.

Lucius had no idea that all his scheming did was allow the sister's to bond and further separate Lyra from the Malfoy family due to spending so much time with Tonks. Much like with harry, she would ask about Hogwarts and things like that but Lyra was equally curious about Harry himself. Tonks got a letter from Lyra a few days after the Diagon encounter talking about how embarrassed she was that she'd met Harry and acted as undignified as she did. Tonks assured her it would be fine since Harry was really cool about stuff like that.

"She was so obvious that Madam Malkins commented on it." Harry chuckled when she told him about their meeting at Diagon.

"Oh yeah. Lyra wants to fuck you almost as much as Draco wants to kill you." Tonks smiled.

"Yep but only one sibling will get what they want." Harry smiled.

Tonks rolled her eyes, "Speaking of fucking. I think I've got enough in the tank for one more round. Last chance, I can transform into Hestia if you want… or an older hotter version of Lyra." Tonks teased. Hestia Jones was Tonk's best friends and they were really close. Because of the need for secrecy they hadn't been introduced but Tonks did provide a few tasty photos of Hestia for him, with Hestia's permission of course.

It was Harry's turn to roll his eyes, "I'll take care of BOTH of those soon enough. Right now, I want one more fuck with my beautiful cousin Nym before I get whisked away to Hogwarts." Harry smiled.

"Girls in Hogwarts beware Sirius Black 2.0 is on the way." Tonks smiled as she slid towards his cock for one final romp. They still had a few hours before they had to leave and they used that time well.

(Scene Skip)

The time had arrived at last for the Potter family's return to the magical world. Harry was dressed in a black jacket with a scarlet t-shirt and blue jeans with simple sneakers. James was in a collared shirt with a brown raincoat and Lily was in a simple red cardigan with jeans and sneakers, "Today's the day." Lily smiled ready for the big moment. Harry was a few moments away from leaving for Hogwarts. His trunk was secured in one of his pockets and his wand in a customer black holster he had Olivander build for him underneath the jacket on his forearm. With a flare of his magic the wand would shoot out into Harry's hand and it made life extremely easy for him. Hedwig was floating above them and after they left she would make the trip to Hogwarts herself. How she knew what to do was beyond him, but he wasn't about to complain since it made his life easier.

"Yep. Harry's going to Hogwarts and the Potter's will make their return to the world of the living after 12 long years." Sirius smiled.

'Technically they never left." Harry said cheekily..

"Don't ruin the moment pup." Sirius deadpanned though he smirked at how well Harry handled that.

"Alright but my day is going to be pretty easy. I get to spend 6 hours on a train with a bunch of cute girls who don't know a thing about me and yet worship the ground I walk on." Harry smiled.

"Sounds familiar." Sirius chuckled recalling his time at Hogwarts. Being the son of House Black got him into a lot of panties, and quite a few more because James was so obsessed with Lily and wouldn't give girls the time of day.

"Just don't let everything get to your head like your father. It took him 6 years and nearly getting your friend killed to get the witch he wanted." Lily smirked.

"Low blow." James pouted.

"I learned from the best." Lily smiled since James and Sirius were masters of taking cheap shots at people, notably her former friend Snape.

Harry snorted at his parent's interaction, "I've learned from Dad and Sirius's mistakes. I won't instigate anything myself." Harry replied with a smile.

"Good" Lily smiled.

"Having said that if somebody tries to instigate with me, they'll pay the price." Harry said with a devious grin. He wouldn't start anything with anybody, he would certainly finish it.

Lily sighed, "I guess I can work with that."

"Any last words for us before we make this journey." Sirius smiled.

"Eight. I solemnly swear, that I'm up to no good." Harry chuckled.

"Attta boy." Sirius smiled and James and Lily smirked as they activated the Floo.

"King's Cross station" Lily said with a smile. The floo lit up and almost as one the Potter's walked through ready for the day.

The trio arrived at the station and within seconds, what they knew was coming was arrived, "That's not possible."

'It can't be."

"They… they're alive."

Gasps of shock as the Potter's walked out of the room where the Floo was located, and on to the tracks giving Harry to take a look at the massive Hogwarts Express train. They could've taken the route from the muggle side but truthfully they'd see TOO many people since they would walk to the front of the train and have everyone watching them that way. Instead they opted for a spot that was in the middle and that would give them far more room to work with and set Harry up.

Barely out of the room for more than five minutes, the newly revealed Potter family watched as multiple wizards stopped in shock wondering what was going on, "Seems we've caused quite the fuss." James smiled.

"You certainly have. I was hoping for a peaceful day off to send my niece off to her first year at Hogwarts and then I find out from Sirius what you guys have planned." An older woman with red hair says with a smile as she approached the group in casual clothes.

"Hello Amy. Harry, I'd like you to meet Amelia Bones. An old friend of ours and the head of the DMLE. Think of her as the head of the magical cops." Lily explained.

"Pleasure to meet you Madam Bones." Harry said politely.

"The pleasure's all mine. Now I suggest you get on the train because there are reporters all over just looking to get an interview with you. I imagine when word spreads about this, it will become a bigger madhouse then it already is."

"That was the plan" Harry smiled before closing his eyes and snapping his fingers. When he found what he wanted, Harry walked away leaving Amelia looking on curiously with her old friends.

"What was that about." Amelia wondered.

"Good question." Lily replied with a slight frown. She knew that snapping his fingers was how Harry performed wandless magic but since he was also silent, she had no idea what her son was cooking up.

"So. Shall we find a place to talk." James smiled.

"Yes. I have a lot of questions and I hope you plan on answering them." Amelia said with a sigh.

"We do." Lily smiled. The first part of their plan was set and now for the second one

(Scene Skip)

Harry was all smiles as he walked through the Express waving at people who thankfully, were only shocked at his appearance and didn't act like idiots. 'Almost there' Harry smiled to himself as he felt the silent and wandless Four-Corners Spell work. The Four-Corners spell was initially designed to point North but if you designated somebody whose magic you knew, you could use it to locate them and that's exactly what he wanted. Finding the compartment he wanted, Harry knocked on the door ready to pull a prank of his own.

"Come on in Draco, I know you're probably going to say something stupid so get it over with." The familiar voice said in a huff.

Harry smiled as he opened the door, "I don't know who Draco is, but he sounds like a ponce." Harry smiled as he was face to face with a stunned Lyra Malfoy. Lyra was currently dressed in a light green cardigan over a silver blouse and a pair of black trousers and a pair of black loafers. To her right was Daphne Greengrass a beautiful girl with long blonde hair that was a little darker than Lyra's and blue eyes. She was wearing a blue blouse that couldn't contain a sizeable bust with a black skirt and grey stockings with a pair of white wedge shoes. On the left was a girl he didn't recognize who was a brunette with fair skin. She was a bit more casual wearing a dark brown long-sleeved shirt with blue jeans and white sneakers with grey stripes along the sides.

"H-Harry!!!" Lyra squealed standing up from her spot between the three girls.

"Hey there Lyra." Harry smiled as he walked in with a smile and closed the door. He was tempted to lock it wandlessly, but he didn't want to expose all his talents just yet.

Lyra panicked because of how she reacted to Harry, "I'm so sorry about that Harry. It's just I really didn't want to deal with-" Lyra stopped because of the fact that Harry had closed the distance between them and put a finger directly on her lips to her shock and the shock of her two friends.

"Whoa. This guy's got guts." The brunette smiled.

"It's the Boy Who Lived. I would expect nothing different. The more impressive part is that Lyra is allowing it" Daphne said with a cool smile but internally she was quite flustered herself. Harry Potter himself was standing in their compartment. Just like Lyra, and even their third companion her vassal Tracey, she was a huge fan of The Boy Who Lived Books even though the author himself acknowledged that they were merely stories. She was so much of a fan that she and Lyra were among the many who communicated with Harry and when he turned 11 had a few photos sent his way, though there was a story behind the latter.

Lyra pulled away bashfully at the display and tried to regain some semblance of control, "Don't do that again Potter. If you were any other person I'd have hexed you so badly you'd spend your first day at Hogwarts in the hospital wing." Lyra said with a flushed face.

Harry smiled at Lyra's lame attempt and decided to up the ante,"You could try but" Harry flared his magic slightly and his wand slid down his jacket and into his right hand in a flash before it was ready to be used, "I'm pretty sure I'd be able to block it or counter it."

All three girls shuddered at the display but it was Daphne who regained her composure after a minute, "Any chance you know a few privacy wards? It won't be long before everyone wants to speak to the legendary Harry Potter, and I was hoping for a peaceful ride to Hogwarts." Daphne said with as much composure as she could.

Harry could appreciate that and in a flash activated a privacy charm, Notice-Me-Not Charm, and a Repelling charm that was powerful enough to prevent anybody who saw through the first two to move away. It was overkill but he REALLY didn't want to be interrupted. His work done he flared his magic again and his wand went back into the hidden holster, "Will that suffice Ms. Greengrass." Harry smiled.

Now it was Daphne's turn to blush he recognized her from the photos, "Yes it will." Daphne blushed.

"Hey now. Somehow both of you know the Boy Who Lived and never introduced me. Not cool guys." The brunette teased.

Harry smiled before walking over to the other side of the compartment and sitting down as a flustered Lyra returned to her spot, "Funny story actually. Over the years, I got letters of support and presents from tons of people who were grateful for what happened 12 years ago. While I got mostly letters, when I turned 11 the photos started coming and Daphne her sister and Lyra were among those people." Harry answered.

The two girls in question blushed even more. As the mysterious third girl smiled, "I see. Leave the half-blooded girl out of the fun of two pure bloods." Tracey teased.

"It's not like that Tracey." Lyra replied bashfully.

"Tori actually sent the first photo as payback for me messing with her stuff." Daphne blushed. Since Harry made a point to respond to all the letters, she was incredibly nervous what he would say and was thrilled to learn he thought she was cute. Needless to say, when birthday number 12 came around, she had a much better photo in mind.

Harry chuckled, "Putting aside that hilarious origin story, Tracey here was messing with you guys. Clearly you purebloods aren't aware of something like sarcasm." Harry smiled.

"Yep. Purebloods are so particular about everything that it's scary. I mean unless you're really close like we are, using someone's first name like you just did would offend a lot of people." Tracey teased causing the girls to look at him nervously since he did suggest closeness or something of the like.

"Whoops. I haven't exactly interacted with many people over the years so I'm not aware of customs like that." Harry said sheepishly. It was a lie since he knew exactly what it was like but he wanted to make things less awkward after the chaotic start.

"I don't mind. You'll have to ask them what they think though. For what it's worth, my full name is Tracey Davis and unlike those purebloods I'll be pissed if you call me Ms Davis" Tracey smiled.

Harry looked towards Daphne "So purebloods. Would you prefer I call you by your first name, or by your house name." Harry said cheekily.

The two girls blushed being put on the spot, "Since my brother is also here, I wouldn't mind you using my first name." Lyra blushed twirling her hair as she did.

"I wouldn't mind either not because of my sister but in general. Then again, my sister will be in Hogwarts next year so it would be easier to use my first name to prevent confusion" Daphne said bashfully.

Harry smiled because this was off to a great start, "Well, Daphne it's nice to meet you in person. Lyra, it's nice to see you again." Harry said warmly

"Likewise H-Harry." Lyra said bashfully.

"It's a pleasure Harry." Daphne smiled. As though it was perfect timing, there was one final whistle and the train started to move.

"Looks like our journey to Hogwarts has begun." Harry chuckled as he sat down wondering what the trip would be like

(Scene Skip)

The first 10 minutes after the express left were awkward as the girls tried to recover from the initial interaction and have a regular conversation with Harry. For Lyra and Daphne they were used to a certain type of person being around purebloods as much as they were. Snooty, entitled, cocky, and thinking that they were Merlin's gift to the world, but Harry was none of those.

Harry had all the aura that came with being a pureblood and none of the arrogance. Given that he was raised by Sirius Black the now Lord of one of the if not THE most Elite Pureblood families in England, that shouldn't be a surprise, but there were plenty of rumors about the type of person Sirius was and they didn't lead to raising somebody like… well Harry. Eventually Tracey of all people broke the ice, "I just noticed that you never put away your trunk." Tracey replied.

The two girls blinked because that was a good point. Harry walked in and showed off his wand but no trunk at all. Harry simply smiled before reaching into his left pocket and pulling out a miniature brown trunk, "The trunk Sirius brought me has feather light charms and a shrinking rune so I can easily carry it in my pocket. Didn't feel like dragging a heavy trunk all over the place." Harry mused.

"Nice." Tracey smirked.

Lyra gathered herself before going into a topic that was slightly taboo amongst her family, "Speaking of Lord Black, I was of the belief that he was struck off the family tapestry by his mother a long time ago. How was he named Lord Black if that was the case" Lyra said timidly. Her mother had no idea how that happened and the less said about her father, the better.

"Funny story actually. It is 100% true that his Mother Walburga blasted his name off the tapestry in a fit of rage when Sirius refused to join He Who Must Not Be Named during the war. The thing is that the only one who could actually kick him out was her husband and he refused to do so."

"Do you know why?" Daphne asked curiously.

"Lord Black didn't trust He Who Must Not Be Named and thought that having somebody on both sides would suit things much better because that way he came out relatively unscathed regardless." Harry answered.

"So he was neutral in a sense." Daphne replied.

"When it came to that yes" Harry mused. The Black family was by no means a light family with a lot of dark artifacts but something about Voldemort bothered Lord Black and he didn't want to fully commit himself to that cause. He wouldn't stop his family from doing so but he didn't himself.

"Speaking of Lord Black. Where have you guys lived for the past 12 years because nobody seems to know." Tracey asked curiously. The now Lord Black was very much a public figure due to the Boy Who Lived Books but nobody knew where he and Harry actually lived.

"I'm afraid I can't tell you." Harry replied.

"Can't or won't" Tracey smiled.

"Technically Both. My location is protected by the Fidelius charm which is one of the most powerful wards in existence. It works by taking a location and then surrounding it with an extremely powerful layer of magic that prevents anybody who's outside the spell at the time of casting from knowing the location. Even if you knew the location beforehand, the charm is able to magically erase it from your brain. The only person who's able to tell the location to others is a designated Secret Keeper. Others can do so but it's generally frowned upon."

Daphne whistled, "That's some serious protection."

Harry was about to say something but Lyra interrupted, "Harry if you even think of saying his name I will hex you." Lyra replied with a snarl.

"Whoa. Hold the fire Lyra." Tracey gasped and even Daphne was slightly taken aback.

"It's alright. Sirius is a jokester and he absolutely loved using his name with that joke. I can see how she's annoyed by that." Harry dismissed.

"I swear my mother twitches everytime somebody uses that word in public because she's waiting for him to say something." Lyra replied.

Harry chuckled, "Sounds about right."

Tracey frowned, "So if you've been living under a powerful protection charm, how did you get those photos and letters that you mentioned." Tracey wondered.

Daphne and Lyra blushed at the reminder of the photos and Harry smirked also, "One of the people who was with us for the casting was King Ragnok who happens to be the Potter's account manager." Harry smiled.

The three girls were stunned, "King Ragnok is your account manager. How is that possible." Lyra gasped.

"He was apparently our manager before he ascended to King and since my family were good to the Goblins he continued but we're getting distracted." Harry answered.

"Right" Lyra frowned.

"Anyway. The answer is that Ragnok himself opened a Gringotts Box for me that would redirect any mail that would come my way. The goblins who handle that area have been vetted by him personally to ensure they aren't compromised so it's ironclad."

"Makes sense." Daphne nodded.

"Yeah." Lyra frowned.

"Oh crap." Tracey gasped.

"What's wrong Tracey." Harry wondered.

"Well… I kind of need you to take down those privacy wards." Tracey blushed.

"Any particular reason." Harry asked curiously.

"The Trolley has a snack cart, and I don't want to miss out because we're trying to avoid people." Tracey said shamelessly causing the girls to groan.

"You bloody glutten. You could've brought snacks from home." Daphne complained.

"I know but I was so busy that I forgot." Tracey blushed.

Harry found it amusing and thankfully, he had a solution, "In that case I'll do this." Harry smiled before activating the holster and showing off his wand again. With a swish and flick, a charm that would allow them to hear what was going on outside was activated . "I've just allowed sound to come from outside so we can listen for the cart. When it's close I'll reveal our location and call it a day." Harry smiled.

"Whoa" Tracey gasped.

"Is there anything you can't do." Lyra muttered.

Harry chose not to respond to that since he wanted to hide some of his talents for a bit longer.

(Scene Skip)

The decision to listen to everything happening outside their room was quickly proven to be a bad one as not even five minutes later the first headache revealed itself, "Excuse me have any of you seen a toad. A boy named Neville lost one." A girl asked from outside.

"Forget toads. Have you guys seen Harry Potter."

"Yeah. He's supposed to be here, but nobody's seen him." Two girls shouted.

"Alright." The first girl said calmly bringing an end to the exchange.

 "Seems I'm quite popular." Harry chuckled.

'Well yeah. At 1 year old you survived the killing curse and beat a famous Dark Lord. Then you have those books that are extremely fun to read. The fact Lord Black actually acknowledges the books are fake but designed for you to imagine what something like that was like speaks to a rare bit of integrity." Tracey smiled.

"Fair enough." Harry chuckled. With that done, they kept listening and the next notable conversation wasn't as pleasant as the girl looking for a toad.

"This is ridiculous. We've checked the whole bloody train and he's not there. How hard can it be to find one wizard" A voice sneered.

"Bollocks it's my brother." Lyra scowled.

"I was only joking when I said he sounded like a ponce." Harry grimaced.

Before Lyra could respond a new voice appeared, "What are you doing Malfoy." A male voice spoke up.

"Well Weasley, I'm looking for Harry Potter. If the only person he's spoken to in the past 12 years is that ruffian Sirius Black, he'll need a proper wizard to teach him what's what." Draco scoffed causing the girls to look towards Harry with abject horror on their faces particularly Lyra.

"Draco you bloody idiot." Lyra cursed.

"Oh boy" Daphne frowned aware of the same thing.

Harry twitched heavily, "Interesting point of view." Harry said with a vicious smile and Lyra went into panic mode.

"Harry listen to me carefully. Draco's opinion is his alone. What he says doesn't reflect what I think or my mom thinks." Lyra panicked.

"What about your father." Harry replied calmly.

"I…." Lyra stammered unsure how to answer. She wouldn't be surprised if he got that mindset FROM their father since Draco spent so much time with her father that he practically was a miniature clone.

"I thought so." Harry replied with a shake of his head.

Tracey found this whole thing hilarious, "So. What are you going to do to him."

"Tracey!" Lyra panicked. This could end very badly for the Malfoy's depending on what Sirius decided to do since it was slander.

"Nothing." Harry smiled.

"Really." Daphne frowned and Lyra could only sigh in relief.

"That's right. There's no need for me to do something when I can simply tell Sirius what happened and let him do it for me."

Lyra's relief vanished, "But you'll make it clear that those were Draco's words only and they don't reflect the family." Lyra panicked. Wizards had to watch what they said at all times because their words often reflected the views of their family. Lyra wanted to make sure that Sirius knew only Draco and Lucius felt that way and not her and Narcissa.

"Of course." Harry replied with a smile.

Lyra breathed a sigh of relief, "Good. I wouldn't want Draco's stupidity to ruin my life." Lyra groaned.

"Bad news then. Somebody as arrogant as that won't back away from what he thinks and that will be his undoing." Harry said calmly.

"As long as he doesn't take me down with him I'm okay." Lyra replied well aware of that. Thankfully Draco had long since moved on but his words wouldn't be forgotten anytime soon.

(Scene Skip)

Things had reduced to a crawl once again after Draco's words and despite what happened Lyra was still concerned. 'Damn you Draco. Now I have to be careful because I know he's pissed.' Lyra cursed internally. Harry may have been calm externally but very few people truly have that level of composure. All it would take is one wrong move and she might find herself in a bad place yet again. Luckily for her, the snack cart arrived and that would offer her a reprieve.

"Looks like the snack cart is here." Harry replied and he got rid of the charms so Tracey could get some snacks.

"Would you like anything from the cart Harry. My treat." Lyra said quickly. She needed to stay on his good side and figured food would do the job.

"Sure. I'll take a few of the Droobles blowing gum and some chocolate frogs. Along with some orange juice if they have it." Harry said calmly. He didn't care for sweets most of the time anyway but he would throw Lyra a bone. She was clearly panicking after Draco's actions and believed she needed to appease him to prevent disaster. She didn't but telling her as much would ruin the fun.

"Okay" Harry replied.

'Pretty simple choices." Tracey mused even as Lyra gave her a dirty glare.

 "Don't like licorice or pumpkin. The idea of eating slugs or cockroaches is not appealing and Cauldron cakes don't do it for me." Harry mused.

"I notice you didn't mention Bertie Botts. Every flavor beans are one of the most popular pranksters out there" Daphne smiled.

"My Uncle and his friends were legendary pranksters in their days at Hogwarts and one of the things Sirius told me is that I should never eat anything when I don't know exactly what I'm eating." Harry replied.

Daphne Lyra and Tracey could agree to that, "Fair point." Tracey admitted. The cart soon arrived and the girls got treats of their own with Tracey still choosing the beans saying that the surprise was the best part.

Once the cart was gone, Harry reapplied the barriers and the girls started to enjoy their gains. Lyra opened her first Chocolate Frog and when she checked out the card she received a pleasant surprise, "You've gotta be kidding me." Lyra gasped as she showed them a Harry Potter card inside her Chocolate Frog. Famous wizards and witches were usually on the cards but up until now, Harry wasn't on the cards.

"I didn't think you were on the Chocolate Frogs and you don't look like that at all" Tracey chuckled.

"The Chocolate Frog company came to Sirius around March hoping to take advantage of the fact I was about to start Hogwarts and make me an actual card. Sirius gave permission as long as I received a small cut just like most wizards with get and they agreed. The photo was from last winter when I was a tester for Nimbus Racing Broom Company." Harry explained.

"You were a tester for Nimbus!" Tracey and Lyra gasped with Daphne visibly impressed.

"Yeah. It was a pretty cool gig." Harry smiled.

"Do you have your own 2000." Tracey wondered.

"Yup. Can't bring it this year since students can't have their own brooms but oh well."

Lyra was curious, "Any chance you'll try out for the house Quidditch team"

"To be determined." Harry admitted.

"Gotcha." Lyra replied. She was still nervous about things, but things were calming down for now and that was just what she needed.

"But enough about that. let's enjoy our snacks in peace." Harry said happily as he started to eat. The trip couldn't have gone better if he tried and there was still plenty of time for more fun if he played his cards right.

Notes:• Bit of a clerical thing to start with. Our dear friend Nymphadora Tonks will have various names used for her by different characters. In most general narrations her name will be used as Tonks. When Harry talks to her or about her to others I'll use Nym. With Lyra and others it will be Dora since she hates using the name Nymphadora and most people respect that. If it is used, it will be intentional to get under her skin.

• Bit of a timeline for the photos because it's not as awkward as it sounds.

Harry saves the world from Voldemort- 1979 (since Hogwarts starts at 13 instead of 11 move the days 2 years back)

Harry turns 8 years old and is brought to see Ragnok to get the rings (1986)

Harry turns 11 and Sirius reveals to the world that Harry is the Black heir- 1989

He'd been receiving letters the whole time but didn't start getting photos till he was 11. The goblins screen said photos also so everything he gets is highly appropriate.

• My head cannon is that the wand holster is akin to Spiderman's web shooter but activated by magic instead of him flicking his wrist. It'll be on his forearm underneath his robes in future appearances

• Two things to note. 1. Lyra Daphne and Tracey are already on the train so they don't know about the Potter's appearance. 2. The people who do know are more focused on getting their kids to the train so they can't discuss the Potter's

• If it wasn't sort of obvious, the girl looking for the toad is Hermione and I kept Ron and Draco both seeking out Harry for different reasons. The two girls asking about Harry are random girls and no they won't be people he deals with in Hogwarts.
