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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKb3XSAmlL
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9sSthMgYG5
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM07n0yn7z2
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgeETJbGeIE
“Here for the first wand, I pressume?” He asked softly as to not scare her away.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDnMf11x97
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUbUAvVy1r
Ophelia nodded and took a few steps towards him. She placed one gold coin on the table, amusing the man.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjMrhrpX6d
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQ80faMuoj
“Right. Let’s see…”997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZB1sUKAnI
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJgX93zm2d
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIm32HSNyq
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8vMuVKgzH
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5gjl02VUp
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6NFYHq4MC
Ollivander smiled with melancholy, his eyes falling over the brunette witch.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vZ78OL6x5
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWUGYH8n7M
“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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBzXBBpge2
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDf4Wr5jeF
She calmed down, the wand coming back to looking like a strange shaped stick.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpEDTfT0Fs
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaucr6cICk
“My mother died five years ago.”997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3ASlMirwg
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gl15xmH72
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEZIQxr3hF
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzfeJtmd0q
“What was she? Was she a mud blood?” Ophelia asked innocently.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXSzC64rXH
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVmxnnJGqj
Ollivander’s eyes widened, surprised that she used that word.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXFaSqgahR
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmv7jqAfC7
“No, no. Lillian was a pure blood but never once have I seen someone so humble.”997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsC34pTo2Re
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0Wvr1ihcu
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0X76atacWJ
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1XRWLRYBU
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzz0KQ82phk
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqW1hlWdAjA
“Take it, take it! He’s been a curse from the moment his owner returned him!”997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6emV793nK2
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSc0M9aLfT
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZuyiuVX43A
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhOiVREf27
“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?”997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVm1gJANTcz
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvGFmGuq5P
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmEKs2KLMO
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxF8E440z8U
“Willard Willy. My new friend.” Ophelia said, laughing when the owl kicked her hand away from the cage.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ735NgcAxfl
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSsJ536yTI
“Talking to a bird now, aren’t we?”997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2p5gs9jiE
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwACdWBlAeN
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNHMeFxzGG
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPS8faa0hV8
“Shouldn’t you be helping the little creature?” Ophelia asked naively.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUHU0EZkfB
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroaIaIEBSs
The blond scoffed, “Do you need help, Dobby?”997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXKOekDLe7
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpF87rWOKJG
“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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQRBSYLKH7
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhvkByEuA3
“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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpk0AISzf4Q
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6p6F7vWbgP
“That sounds like slavery to me. I read back in the orphanage about-“ Her eyes widened when she realized what she said. “I mean-“997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBSHTmT7dP
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheovctSTSG
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqmJ34RrAp
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOX8yfVAZFj
“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.” 997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYvfuSxOQ7
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYABf66Vhg0
“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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIiCoA2rIm
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbu8GOvdRo
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5EUzjeTm9k
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAndwILLVz
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1M2MW6fKS
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD74XiJPKMB
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpyc7NxUm7
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroLG3KEXQQ
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 ¾.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0T5HEFdvyW
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6I1EfpIJrA
“Maybe we should ask the gentleman from the information stand.” Gloria mumbled to her husband, pointing at the officer.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstXQ4eEmKO
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnoACIXVmw
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeeWROaGBn
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWAKeKv3hZ
“Mum! Dad! I think you should keep close to me!” She yelled, grabbing their attention.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMkGgjG6ae
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyO9BCjGFkC
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 ¾.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QvOMzHjS2
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UA7kLu5fe
“Wow~”997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTHI9FSAIK
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sB3i9ctuI
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCTjcantXv
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQVzEwdNIm
Richard helped Ophelia get her trunk on the train and slipped something in her hand. Ophelia raised an eyebrow when she saw a penknife.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvBsXi2409
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDnPVAFZGY
“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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqfY0zjuzg
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9K3QDLNgR
“My dear daughter. Please, write to us as much as you want. I’ll keep the windows open for your owl.”997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLsYJxFn6N
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4T32HJIey
That was very weird, especially when a lawyer said it with such a straight face.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXjyXQYJZn
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXULYqBTdw
“Ok. I’ll be fine. I’ll write as soon as possible, I promise.”997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TiQsXqusk
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKfz9kjUQX
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.
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pHWD1abUS
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzh3pNu8jV
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgiPxbNYpAb
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcH56HkoAqe
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0aqTanikd
“Maybe I should look for another compartment…” Ophelia mumbled, her eyes moving from the redhead girl to the greasy haired boy.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkCPNTHGQi
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5gFLUUvo2
“No! No! Please, take a seat! I’m Lily and this is Severus. We’re also first years!” The redhead exclaimed, smiling brightly.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cIzZXgKET
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLcD3dsaNY
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLFWSe4uxc
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFuq27AO7Q
“I’m Ophelia. I’m new to this whole wizarding world. I never knew I was a witch even if stuff happened to me.”997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECTSCH0ZSk
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUoAG5BMWn
Severus scoffed, “Are your parents muggles, then?”997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0tpJd1LnU
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCsugkniYm
Lily threw a look at him which made him remember her parents were actually muggles, making him look down at his hands.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukl2LIlJzV
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubpCBdBwb0
“No. My birth mother was a witch but I don’t know anything about my father. I don’t think I ever met him.”997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2W1AlMm7UG
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcmR9Ok7V8
“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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOogL76xu2
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8aqwmB4T4
“Why is blood rank so important to wizards?” Ophelia asked, genuinely confused.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWj4seTYs4
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CqW6fGUQ1
“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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusnJeMbqOl
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BM93hNMVv
"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."997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AbGONJGZl
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MNMi90CfN
"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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNVWIJzJOf
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx94cYo2VPY
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QfWB7Qw1L
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rqjPjpGsd
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TJkXJH7IA
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHX06UvZy0
"What house do you suppose you'll get sorted in?" Lily asked Ophelia, eyes twinkling.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrts4t9ck4c
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLd0vS3yMaq
"I don't know. I don’t care that much as long as I can learn magic.” She responded bluntly.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWCtmITdmt
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJqETyqK58
Severus raised an eyebrow and leaned on his knees, his dark eyes staring at Ophelia’s elongated green orbs.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oi0CCijw2
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSx6w6runA
“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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOslhgYiRJh
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWV4ag70Nq
“Gryffindor would be a good choice too, don't you think?" Lily asked.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PIcsmfrcl
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eC1FSKGZc
Ophelia noticed the sneer on Snape's face at the mention of Gryffindor but didn't say anything.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4aETWAXVPi
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9plt8HKIrl
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQQIipB84m
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMftvGB882f
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEtyTuvSA0
“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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMaAsm5dFW
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG50luPhcEX
“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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqQvir08eh
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnw0ik9OlQs
The owl didn’t even stir. Severus levitated the cage down on the seat and Lily walked towards it, watching the owl with curiosity.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5VyuRxsQF
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBi89QfxHUt
“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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhf543cZoY
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoAAf4ZQVW
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLIGSo1CBD
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvmMKm4rQU
“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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCCa5CP3oq
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpi5CYMAhh
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTV2xVcOn9
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAi0KtQy2e
“Petrificus Totalus.” He whispered, pointing his wand at the owl.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfasW7b9Fj
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghCyiS3UiR
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrYD03dBMI
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakSRtaeMAk
“Look what you have done, Sev. What if he won’t return to normal?” Lily asked her friend, troubled.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRwrCUDJB9
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjI8F9626P
“I can just use a counter-curse and it will be fine. I know what I’m doing Lily.” He whispered back.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJmW2jkg3a
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxm04xiSAD
The two glanced at Ophelia and saw her stare with a poker face at her pet.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWGJTCmwyI
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRRuzLmXuX
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynPYCzAkGZ
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJk6kmxaeff
“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?”997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZ9IKHqM8Y
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eOM5H2fZV
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2bK5oGMml
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNRkZvP3ce
“Can’t you do it too? You know, using magic without a wand.”997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6Y9zevnwF
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduetgKJDrO
Severus looked at her closely before sitting down, puffing his cheeks in annoyance.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBMD2kzu6Z
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1u4MOcBYy3
“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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFigzO0NXGO
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwHTRjfFvk
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.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxZusfCRWN
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrp12ToYhU
“So your sister isn’t a witch?” Ophelia asked when Lily dived into her family situation.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8W30xoWIk
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkkZpJJYo0
“She’s not. Severus was the first person I met that was like me.” She admitted, smiling at the greasy haired boy.997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzapmODDSWI
997Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBX2SeHWRrn
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.
