What's it like to be the daughter of Professor McGonagall, the strictest and most impartial professor of them all?
Linor McGonagall-Uquhart just smiles and says nothing.
Then, as the daughter of Professor McGonagall, who cares most about rules, how can she get up to mischief right under her mother's nose?
She nods inscrutably. "If you want to know..."
This story follows young McGonagall's years at Hogwarts.
This is a story about love: a father's love, a mother's love, and the love of children. Friendship, deep affection, and even the love found in a chance encounter.
I won't demonize Gryffindor or whitewash Slytherin, but I want to save the souls in my story who have not yet fallen beyond redemption. I'm greedy: I want everyone in my story to have a warm and happy ending, and I want to create a school life that is cozy despite its grayness.
[Content Warnings]
- Many original details; canon couples remain intact
- No transmigration, no golden finger, and not a female-led power fantasy
- The male lead is undecided, and the heroine may have more than one romance (please don't attack the heroine over this)
- They are children, and are allowed to make mistakes, hesitate, and be indecisive
- The heroine and Lily are best friends (who doesn't like Lily?)
- I'm preparing for graduate school entrance exams, so updates will be slow, but I will never abandon this story
