Entering the shop called Ollivander’s was interesting. She wasn’t the only customer, there was another boy that looked afraid for his life. Instead of walking to him, she adventured deep in the store, confused why she was there for. She also realized she didn’t ask the stranger for his name, once again, and rubbed her forehead in frustration.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePEDNmhjkB
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssv9LGkk5T
By the time she returned to the front desk, the other boy was gone. She was alone in the store and the man behind the front desk was watching her eagerly.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2cILVoQAn
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9K9Z3gH4v
“Here for the first wand, I pressume?” He asked softly as to not scare her away.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0otDDfi4a
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQkffB2d9d
Ophelia nodded and took a few steps towards him. She placed one gold coin on the table, amusing the man.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlcqbs44WT
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhBcZSQvj8
“Right. Let’s see…”1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8k5uGu5Pi
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHInKQhvJ2g
Mr. Ollivander, as Ophelia found out was his name, gave her a big number of wands but none seemed to fit her. A lot of them were too squishy in her hand and some of them were getting stiff once she touched them. An hour and a half passed until Ollivander took a closer look at Ophelia’s eyes. He could remember every wand he sold but there were some specific children that he gave their wands to: Lillian Gaunt, for example. With that name in mind, Ollivander gave Ophelia an Alder wood, Phoenix feather core, 13 inches in length and very flexible.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfljDjS24UE
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfulvApM6Ho
Once Ophelia held it, she felt a special kind of butterflies in her stomach. Her eyes brightened as her fingers tingled and blue sparkles emanated from her wand.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1z1MiFZZ4
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOb6ko56ndI
Ollivander smiled with melancholy, his eyes falling over the brunette witch.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkXQ2LMHic
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokvdoM9WfQ
“Phoenix feather cores come in pairs. I sold the other one a very long time ago to a little girl who was living with her cousin. That little girl had the brightest green eyes I have ever seen and the brightest red hair. Lillian was her name and I can only guess you are her daughter.” Ollivander explained, his eyes focused on the brunette witch.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtEtH7DGDC
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp54XPU20H1
She calmed down, the wand coming back to looking like a strange shaped stick.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPoRN0wUAw
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhhvL1HVKA
“My mother died five years ago.”1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCE9PWMeWwo
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7o87LwMnkr
Ollivander’s expression fell into a look of sorrow, remembering just what else was there about Lillian. Ophelia didn’t look like she was aware of her family heritage or about the wizarding world in general.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTMg0AB7dx
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DAoouVGZQ
“What was she? Was she a mud blood?” Ophelia asked innocently.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABbdNwpSFr
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ArE6zWmMv
Ollivander’s eyes widened, surprised that she used that word.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGXxYfEsl8
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh27qHHi8bg
“No, no. Lillian was a pure blood but never once have I seen someone so humble.”1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4tBZqXypp
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0sk3alrRxz
Ophelia smiled softly. It wasn’t every day that someone would speak about Lillian, not that many have met her. It actually made Ophelia wonder why she ended up in the orphanage when it was obvious her mother knew people from the wizarding community.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhmS2fThgW
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KSqQ73IB8
That thought and the nice words Mr. Ollivander said about Lillian seemed to keep Ophelia so busy that she completely forgot where she was going. She blinked when she found herself in front of the same brown owl. This time, she entered and used the remaining coins in order to buy him.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryHyA5OEKQ
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEb0YW0aWxq
“Take it, take it! He’s been a curse from the moment his owner returned him!”1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUtgxdxvvp
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CBcXitfRE
With the eagerness in the owner’s eyes, Ophelia paid for the rest of the stuff and walked out. Surprisingly, the owl seemed very calm and content.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xSRVvVIds
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJFNx3mHnK
“What name should I give you?” She asked the beautiful brown owl. “Buffy? Blinky? Bert?” She asked more names but the owl was making a weird face at each of them. Ophelia laughed and stopped near a wall, waiting for her savior. “What about Willard?”1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnyGoaqmmn
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbhMIAtPoN
The brown owl blinked before tilting his head to the side. Ophelia smiled and rubbed his feathers through the cage. He didn’t move once and didn’t bite her, even though the shop owner was adamant that he was a violent owl.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1TCpOSl0B
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpHPFHYBo6
“Willard Willy. My new friend.” Ophelia said, laughing when the owl kicked her hand away from the cage.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRE5w7HBj7V
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGpwz3u9Ko
“Talking to a bird now, aren’t we?”1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKRo2To2Tm
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIPDcHBGYs
Ophelia looked up, surprised to see the same blond from before. He was holding onto a few books that looked heavier than him yet he was holding them easily. This time, next to him was a small creature with big green eyes that was carrying a pile of stuff bigger than him. Quite rudely, the blond dropped the heavy books into a medium sized cauldron, making the small creature almost fall on his bottom.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46NoQOUkMR
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCQsm9kCMl
“Shouldn’t you be helping the little creature?” Ophelia asked naively.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo86B7xQgve
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAog0LIGQg
The blond scoffed, “Do you need help, Dobby?”1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq46NW4jGLx
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6AgGPvwo0
“No sir! Young Master Malfoy should never carry anything. That is Dobby’s job, sir!” A squeaky voice was heard from behind the stack of books.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qfd7InQ3C
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTh9GGCSsxh
“See?” The blond asked, turning towards Ophelia with an expectant look. “That is what house elves do but of course, you mud blood don’t know that either.” He sneered.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcvhr3nm16
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1MCb1sJv0
“That sounds like slavery to me. I read back in the orphanage about-“ Her eyes widened when she realized what she said. “I mean-“1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7LLTHcAq6
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cTLJZHrQF
It was already too late. The blond already found out something new about her and it looked like he was the type of person to keep it for later, when he needed it.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8FSThgIhM
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9DM7XKb12
“Anyway, my mother was a witch so I’m not a mud blood. I just found out that she was a pure blood, too.” Ophelia added quickly, getting on her feet and bloating with pride. “Who are you anyway? Always looking down on me when you have just met me.” 1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNcG8KxIaZ
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpgxEDcHDZ
“Maybe you should ask this mother of yours about the Malfoys. I’m sure she will tell you exactly what you need to know. Let’s go Dobby!” He said, throwing her a nasty look before walking away.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaehNc6Mk2d
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5drDFyINcy
Ophelia watched the house elf barely walk with all the heavy stuff he was carrying yet he didn’t say a word, just followed his master.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpn0VsAQsO
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVqtoW5n71
When Tom found Ophelia, she was sulking with her back against the cold wall. He noticed the wand in her hand and the owl in the cage, watching him approach. Tom smirked when the brown owl backed away at the sight of his eyes.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuYsdmm3Ms
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfttqXOCqs
Ophelia got back home a few minutes later, right in front of her house actually. She wanted to thank Tom but he vanished before she could say anything. Gloria Molley was more than shocked when her daughter entered the house after hours of being gone with an owl and a wand.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvIdl6nAjr
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjIJ9UvCHR
The next morning, she sent Willy on his first errand with her reply to Hogwarts. When she walked downstairs for breakfast, she found the rest of the stuff she needed for Hogwarts, even robes.
That was how, on September 1st, Ophelia Molley arrived with her parents in King’s Cross station in London, searching for Platform 9 ¾.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NRrVde5ZH
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQOzoysET1
“Maybe we should ask the gentleman from the information stand.” Gloria mumbled to her husband, pointing at the officer.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EMuQfkxdW
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eGnvmT6iD
Ophelia sighed, disappointed that the mysterious stranger didn’t come to see her off. Willy squirmed in his cage and stared intensely at his owner. He made a few small noises before he started to jump. Once he grabbed Ophelia’s attention, he pointed with his beak at a certain wall. She glanced at the owl before placing the cage down and moving a bit so she could have a bigger picture of Platform 9 and Platform 10. Her eyes fell over the space between them and tilted her head to the side. Ophelia hummed before she grabbed her trunk and cage and walked in front of the wall between the platforms.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWLA2mLMn7
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pksZONqJe
“Mum! Dad! I think you should keep close to me!” She yelled, grabbing their attention.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EeppSuFnT
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASsD6yGsjv
Gloria and Richard glanced at each other in worry but followed her advice anyway. Ophelia closed her eyes and ran right through the wall, feeling a slight breeze before arriving on Platform 9 ¾.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSPXec6iU4
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORCgSgtL1m
“Wow~”1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08ty91uDYX
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM77D48NXSe
It was amazing. There were more children, of different ages, than Ophelia imagined. Parents were hugging their children while some looked uncomfortable and only patted their backs. It was a whole new world, one that amazed the Molleys more than it amazed their daughter.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOxf69sUhf
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvn06NKt7zm
Richard helped Ophelia get her trunk on the train and slipped something in her hand. Ophelia raised an eyebrow when she saw a penknife.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6lz7fjriL
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBAHiAOkqO
“Just to be safe. You never know what some of these people can do.” He whispered before kissing her cheek and letting Gloria say her farewells.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheXmdF0HFL
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YGxv6u3SS
“My dear daughter. Please, write to us as much as you want. I’ll keep the windows open for your owl.”1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNegRfljix
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYKsl9EA4U
That was very weird, especially when a lawyer said it with such a straight face.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72I6qokp8x
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWt9LLwDo9Y
“Ok. I’ll be fine. I’ll write as soon as possible, I promise.”1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsYihTcUJE
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVBfyuQm8t
Gloria nodded and hugged her daughter one more time before they heard the train’s honk. Ophelia got on the train, holding Willy’s cage in one hand while the other grasped the handle of her trunk. She smiled and waved at her parents before the train started to move. Ophelia took a last long look at her parents before walking inside.
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBEJUdiYgG
Searching for an empty compartment was proving to be difficult. She was a newcomer, a first year and friends were difficult to find and make. Ophelia wasn’t exactly a social butterfly and her friends have always depended on circumstances. Now, she was on foreign land and she had to step carefully or she’d get hurt.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvM4FHdvudt
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTY1SITxj8
She found one compartment in the very back that looked empty. When she entered, she noticed two other children. They stopped speaking when they saw her which made her feel unwanted.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbtHqN1BjR
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25J478t7bi
“Maybe I should look for another compartment…” Ophelia mumbled, her eyes moving from the redhead girl to the greasy haired boy.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagGQiM9Py6
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLiS7GDmuLM
“No! No! Please, take a seat! I’m Lily and this is Severus. We’re also first years!” The redhead exclaimed, smiling brightly.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQGFukqdL4
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVK0ylI4FY9
Looking at Severus, Ophelia knew she interfered with their personal space. She grasped Willy’s cage but Lily’s bright eyes made her feel bad. In the end, Ophelia placed her luggage aside and sat on one side while Lily and Severus sat on the other side. When Lily chose to change seats and come next to Ophelia, she swore she saw the greasy haired boy narrow his eyes at her.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DrfeKawqx
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROxGwgg1E2
“I’m Ophelia. I’m new to this whole wizarding world. I never knew I was a witch even if stuff happened to me.”1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdYC81tgR4
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCqGvlORkv
Severus scoffed, “Are your parents muggles, then?”1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzISshoIFwX
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQ4mcrg8jT
Lily threw a look at him which made him remember her parents were actually muggles, making him look down at his hands.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡav7OO8F8ih
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwQJ0Awecr
“No. My birth mother was a witch but I don’t know anything about my father. I don’t think I ever met him.”1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxmTngScmJ
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfx1vsncD2t
“That means you’re a half blood, like Sev. My parents are muggles. They were very surprised when I received my Hogwarts letter.” Lily chuckled, remembering that moment.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZLd4vTivS
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9i2ZYH3Y3
“Why is blood rank so important to wizards?” Ophelia asked, genuinely confused.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdxKKLNYZU
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWXnBrGacT
“Haven’t you read anything at all? Blood status is a concept in the wizarding world that distinguishes between family trees that have different levels of magically-endowed members. It often results in prejudice towards those who have a large number of Muggles in their families. It is very important.” Severus answered, scowling at Ophelia’s ignorance.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPT4ydp3hy7
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisDvljXXJV
"Well, I did read about Hogwarts a bit. I know there are four houses and my parents seemed to enjoy the thought that I could be in Ravenclaw."1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoOA36hiyi
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpfHfFNxk5
"That doesn't depend on you, it depends on the Sorting Ceremony. You'll get sorted based on your skills and values." Severus added, scowling continuously at the new acquaintance.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCy4ptCtDt
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobuUOVMpal
Ophelia didn’t seem to mind this peculiar boy with greasy black hair and eyes that knew nothing but to look down upon anyone that wasn’t a friend. Severus wasn’t like the boys in Bread of Life Orphanage, witty and always looking for trouble but he wasn’t like the boys in her neighborhood either, always classy and neat with answers by the book.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV82o7mnRv9
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Ux1shhXTd
On the other hand, Lily looked a lot like Lillian, though it was probably only because she was a ginger with green eyes. The difference was probably the glint and the atmosphere, in which Lily was just a child while Lillian was a grown up adult with a lot of pressure.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWl3UzWOhDM
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFDOu1e96t
"What house do you suppose you'll get sorted in?" Lily asked Ophelia, eyes twinkling.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbZVNlp9Gv
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLSsC4o75u
"I don't know. I don’t care that much as long as I can learn magic.” She responded bluntly.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TVKovEuzR
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVFseREfhU
Severus raised an eyebrow and leaned on his knees, his dark eyes staring at Ophelia’s elongated green orbs.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGyodXDwvr
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAM7eFXdW4
“Slytherin is the best house. A Slytherin is always fearless and smart. I, personally, prefer it before any other house.” Severus said, bloating when he mentioned himself.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RVsDVrOah
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8o6e2dG2J9
“Gryffindor would be a good choice too, don't you think?" Lily asked.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXEtoE5h7Q
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJPW4AexqG
Ophelia noticed the sneer on Snape's face at the mention of Gryffindor but didn't say anything.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBA3Y3QMtUE
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAnZXO9eUJ
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8yzQaRePW
For the rest of the ride to Hogwarts, Severus continued speaking about Hogwarts and everything he has found out about magic. Ophelia was intrigued by the number of spells he knew already and the way he would look when performing them. Watching him was just like watching the pale stranger.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaY1WaEzsed
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyeDSSXp0C
“So, tell me again, how do we make things fly?” She asked, sitting so close to Severus that the boy felt like she was ready to enter his mind.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQmagJgCRQ
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjExxmzC4n
“It’s levitation not flying. You do it like this.” He said, waving his wand in a certain way before Willy’s cage started to fly.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgXEADAnPu
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJ9Nvl1peq
The owl didn’t even stir. Severus levitated the cage down on the seat and Lily walked towards it, watching the owl with curiosity.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41aGenDzB9
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHr04MHgH7
“I wouldn’t get too close to him. He might bite.” Ophelia advised the ginger, knowing that was exactly what happened when Richard tried to pat him.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hUkLvX3Tq
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhJhBABzzp
Lily did listen to Ophelia and didn’t touch the cage but even so, she couldn’t help feel like that owl was trying to see into her soul.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6kbYS11cZ
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64Qupl0m27
“Do you want me to show you something that can really help you?” Severus asked, seeing how Ophelia’s just started the levitation charm and did it very well from the first try.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuasf6SwPyN
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihMhAYmDGm
Ophelia nodded, eyes sparkling with excitement. Severus smirked and turned to Willy. The owl tilted his head to the side, looking at the boy as if he was taunting him to dare and curse him.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWg20zwTA4Y
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYItNrLNlBM
“Petrificus Totalus.” He whispered, pointing his wand at the owl.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzM1tEeUGE
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjw2Aods67
Ophelia’s eyes widened while Lily hit Severus indignantly. She could hear the two friends bickering behind as the brunette walked to her owl and checked if he was alive. He was, but he looked like a statue, unable to even blink.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSwPu4BZlw
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIaTmWAqyw
“Look what you have done, Sev. What if he won’t return to normal?” Lily asked her friend, troubled.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQtCxSDWQd
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrbMQTsh2L
“I can just use a counter-curse and it will be fine. I know what I’m doing Lily.” He whispered back.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5F9CQLAFsv
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtO62u6ZyV3
The two glanced at Ophelia and saw her stare with a poker face at her pet.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35RmU5G1cX
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfbMsoXTcI
On the other hand, Ophelia’s mind was swirling with thoughts about curses. The pale boy knew so much already and he seemed so sure of what he knew and what he was doing that it amazed her. She reached inside the cage in order to touch Willy when something blue came out of her finger and went straight into her owl. The pet blinked a few times before he glared at Severus but the greasy haired boy was staring warily at Ophelia.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vihfH4rGt
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8rHbzeaDV
“How did you do that?” He asked, getting up and hovering over her. “You didn’t even touch him and definitely didn’t use a wand so how did you lift the curse?”1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWpYM8E3ZY
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡussp9qyhj3
Ophelia raised an eyebrow and glanced at him before her eyes fell on Lily. She looked just as surprised as Severus but didn’t seem as angry about it as him.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhZBWL18EB
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqc8yXQbZkQ
“Can’t you do it too? You know, using magic without a wand.”1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwh1rR2NLN
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8acTlkxrZ1
Severus looked at her closely before sitting down, puffing his cheeks in annoyance.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGLGH5aXTN
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4vUskmADc
“It’s possible but only if you reach a certain level. We’re still young so I doubt any of us can control magic without a wand.” He explained.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4M0cvjojJb
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfYNIPgBY1
With that established, Ophelia kept her hands on her lap at all times and placed Willy’s cage next to her trunk, just to be safe. Severus didn’t say anything anymore and Lily took it as a sign to speak about normal, muggle stuff. Ophelia fell into that immediately and listened to the ginger while one greasy haired boy was glowering at her for having Lily’s entire attention.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutkl21BJWB
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7eiBS6976q
“So your sister isn’t a witch?” Ophelia asked when Lily dived into her family situation.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4KLcUA0KE
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvqbQMHvo0
“She’s not. Severus was the first person I met that was like me.” She admitted, smiling at the greasy haired boy.1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOReEzl3Gc
1094Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bRiem42Fz
Ophelia raised an eyebrow and leaned back, crossing her arms in front of her chest. Watching the two interact was like watching a ragged dog watching a butterfly fly around his head; it was both interesting and pitying.
