      60.Honesty and Hot Thrills Cover
      by Gladiusx 5th of May 1994, Saturday (Same Day Sirius Black The moment he stepped into Dumbledore’s office, Sirius Black straightened up. One look at the headmaster made his grin melt away. It was sobering to see Dumbledore’s face so uncharacteristically solemn. He had known the old man for most of his life, and he had always looked genial, calm, or amused, never like… this. And then his whole world crumbled the moment the headmaster opened his mouth. “Moony did what?!” The hot rush of rage in…

      by Gladiusx By Merlin, he was bored, and the Hogwarts Express had not even left the muggle city yet. The nine-hour ride was already shaping up to be a mind-numbing experience. Neither Crabbe nor Goyle made for a particularly engaging or exciting conversation partner. In fact, Crabbe was already asleep, and his annoying snores filled the compartment, while Goyle could be mistaken as a statute as he was blankly staring at the window while standing unnaturally still. He almost regretted not seeking out Pansy, but…

      by Gladiusx 4th of May 1994, Friday Dumbledore Igor Karkaroff paced across the room, his footsteps as feverish as they were nervous. Just like almost everything else in Durmstrang, the headmaster’s office was dark and gloomy, even without counting the vast collection of cursed books lining the shelves. The windows were stilted, lacking in sunlight; a dark grey carpet sagged across the floor, and the furniture was either cast or coloured in various degrees of dark, joyless hues.  “He’s about to…

      by Gladiusx Corruption or Incompetence? The Ministry’s play for House Black and Lestrange’s seats! By our correspondent Kateris Tree While certain elements claim the attack on Hogsmeade was a premeditated murder and a bold escape, I have unearthed new evidence that implies otherwise. Further exploration of that day—including memories provided to me by a handful of witnesses on the scene—suggests that Lady Juno Bellatrix Black has been kidnapped by unknown assailants. “Miss Black has never broken a…

      by Gladiusx 1st of May 1994, Sunday (Next Day) Juno She felt weak, as if all the strength had drained away from her limbs. ‘Textbook case of Magical Exhaustion,’ her mind supplied helpfully. Her throat felt dry, like she had swallowed a mouthful of ash. It tasted like it, too. Birds were chirping in the distance, but her ears found the noise irksome. Then, the memories returned with full force, and she cursed herself inwardly.  She should have used her Portkey instead of fighting.  The next…

      by Gladiusx April 30th 1994 Saturday (127 days later)  Juno Black The last few months had been fruitful. They had managed to convince Amelia Bones to teach them Apparition and take the official exam, though it would take until summer for their license to come. The first basilisk scale battle robes were finally finished last month, though it was estimated that Juno and Harry would outgrow them in less than a year. It was of no matter; she would just commission a new set by then. “Mum wants a double…

      by Gladiusx 1st of November 1993, Monday (1 day later) Galloway Forest ??? A hooded figure drifted through the morning mist like a wraith, gliding into what looked like a large encampment, entirely unbothered by her surroundings. It was a woman—the heavy black cloak failed to hide the shapely figure underneath completely.  She stopped at the edge of the clearing, the aquiline nose poking out of the hood wrinkling with disdain as she looked around. Over seventy camping tents and pavilions were strewn…

      by Gladiusx 31st of October 1993, Sunday (8 days later) Juno Harry learned from his mistakes with frightening speed—it was incredibly hard to defeat him twice the same way. It was an instinctive talent for fighting that made even her envious.  “Frigor Umbra!” The icy shade was met with a burst of fire, melting it away with a shriek.  That trick had worked only twice more before Harry managed to counter it. Not that it mattered. The barrage of spells from Amelia’s wand did not slow even…

      by Gladiusx 9th of October 1993, Saturday (3 days later) Harry Potter Stern-faced, dressed in a heavy yellow-and-black robe, the deputy headmistress had an imposing appearance that could intimidate many students by her presence alone. A younger version of Professor McGonagall, and far more dangerous. He suspected there would be trouble when Amelia Bones slipped into the meeting with a guilty-looking Susan, but the proposal still surprised them. Even Nyx shifted underneath his skin, waking him from his…

      by Gladiusx 1st of October 1993, Friday (21 days later)Albus Dumbledore Three weeks. It took him three weeks to get an actual lead and move in. His connections abroad were fewer compared to the British Isles, and across the world, they were spread thin. While his name carried weight and unlocked many doors, he was redirected towards bureaucrat after bureaucrat and official after official. It was a cumbersome process that reminded him that at least half of the Ministries across the continent and ICW were even more…
