1971: A Love Letter to the Boys of a Generation in the Hogwarts Corridors
[Female-lead, all-characters direction, but their feelings differ and are not all romantic. Sirius is the only clearly defined relationship in the main story. James and Lily are 99.]
[Slytherin heroine. Mostly everyday school life among the Marauders’ generation, with original plotlines woven in. The original characters’ paths remain unchanged. A warning: the heroine will not change anyone’s fate. She is only a witness.]
[Avelina Waldstein: She may or may not be the one. Not a traditional Slytherin. Social butterfly, food explorer, slow to catch on, dutiful detention-task doer.]
Twenty-six years ago, Albus Dumbledore told eleven-year-old Avelina Waldstein to get a good night’s sleep.
Twenty-six years later, eleven-year-old Avelina Waldstein sat at the Slytherin table.
First year: Villy got along well with every Black at Hogwarts, except Sirius Black.
Second year: On the way to the Hospital Wing, Sirius said he would turn Villy into the ugliest toad in the world.
Third year: In front of everyone and the professors, Villy shoved Sirius into the courtyard fountain.
Fourth year: It had to be because she was in the Gryffindor common room. Why else would the Amortentia smell like Sirius’s cloak?
Fifth year: Sirius vowed never to set off fireworks in front of the girl he liked again, except at Christmas.
Sixth year: "Villy, you’re the Unforgivable Curse Merlin cast on me."
Seventh year: Under a sky full of fireworks, Sirius made up for the dance and irises he owed her.
