[Harry Potter] A Clichéd Love Story

It is only natural that Heather would fall in love with Sirius Black.

"He is the more perfect me on the other side of the mirror."

So, before darkness fell, she finally grew a pair of wings and learned to be a moth to the flame, just like him.

Ravenclaw original female character x Sirius Black

Making the dreams come true for those who died before their stories began

The female lead's golden finger: Legilimency

[Content warnings]

1. A slice-of-life story, a day-by-day record of school life in the Marauders' era, with extensive scenes focused on the original female character.

2. The female lead has a coming-of-age arc. Early on, she's roughly a female version of a more rational (cowardly) Dog Dad. She and Lily are friends, and James and Lily remain together.

3. Sirius and Remus, and James and Lily, survive. No guarantees for anyone else.

4. I'll stick as closely to canon as I can, but I'm not a canon expert, so feel free to point out mistakes. There will be some original settings!

Expected to be complete at around 600,000 words. I'll do my best not to abandon it, and update two or three times a week.

Any out-of-character writing is on me; the characters belong to Rowling.

I won't abandon this, but I don't know when it will be finished.

A small goal: maybe I can finish it before Lunar New Year next year...

If you can, please support the author and help speed things up with plenty of bookmarks and comments ^_^

I'm back to fill in the rest! I'll aim for at least one update a week!
