[Harry Potter: Marauders Era] The Spirit of Chivalry

(Currently undergoing a slow revision.)

You adopted a dog, an exceptionally intelligent dog.

It waits for you by the door and brings you your slippers.

It sniffs your scent with its nose.

It even leads you over to its food bowl.

There, quietly waiting, is a flower

beaded with dew.

Dogs can smell people's scent clearly. You are certain this is what happiness smells like.

Until one day, you watch helplessly as it transforms into your long-missing ex-boyfriend.

A Dog Owner's Diary

Chloe tried to catch it and give it a bath, but Black smacked her with a paw.

Who would have thought that when she first adopted this little dog, it was covered in wounds and could barely walk?

And now, in the blink of an eye, it could throw such a powerful punch...

As she thought about it, tears of relief welled in Chloe's eyes.

- Even though the creature right in front of her was clearly an enormous black dog.

(The daily dog-raising stories start after Chapter 33~)

* No Peter

* No breaking up canon couples; Jily survive

* Timeline starts in 1975

* The female lead is an Auror, three years older than the Marauders.

* I wanted to write a loyal dog-like male lead, so I wrote this fanfic. I'm just here for dog-like guys.

* I'm committed to writing a sweet story, so rest assured, there'll be a big, happy ending with everyone together.

* Serious tone. This is my first long-form story, so the pacing may be slow.

* A coming-of-age story

At last, I've finally worked up the courage to write about old Voldy in my next story. Basically, Voldemort tries to get rich widow Hepzibah to cough up her gold, but just as he's about to hit the jackpot, the widow dies.

Synopsis:

In 1946 London, Margot lost her mother, Hepzibah Smith.

She was left a large inheritance and a pack of ravenous relatives.

Just as they were about to devour her alive, her mother's last lover appeared.

Tom Riddle, the handsome, humble shop assistant from Borgin and Burkes, praised to the skies by every widow.

-

Tom Riddle thought life was easy and everything was within his grasp.

Except for Margot, who should have been an easy murder, but instead withdrew from the game and escaped unscathed.

Theme: Uphold the code of chivalry.
