You are John Vipsanius Apise. Everyone casually calls you John and don't use your middle name except when your parents are angry with you. You live with your parents and a few servants in a big mansion somewhere near Scottish-English border near the sea. Your mansion also have a nice garden and grounds around it. You were a bit too young to understand fully what is going on during the War but you remember a lot how many nights your parents argued about each of their family members actions and how your father was always very cautious and didn't even invite any members to your house in the recent years out of fear that they will bring the war with them. This has been getting better this year and you get to meet with some of our cousins and uncles recently in a nice family dinner.

You father was in Hufflepuff and your mother was in Slytherin.

Your biggest interest in life is the magical animals. You are fascinated by all kinds of magical creatures. You spend lot of your time reading books about them, you always wait each week for the Daily Prophet to print it's weekly special about strange creatures, and you always beg your father to buy you a strange animal every week. But he doesn't want his only son to be around some monsters...

You also like reading a lot. You read story books, novels and other kind of books. You have even read some strange Muggle books that they call "classics" for some reason.

You also enjoy the potions a lot. You think it is really awesome to just make a strange drink with weird stuff inside and something magical happens! Sometimes you go out with one of your servants to the nearby wood to gather herbs and try to make potions at home with the recipes you find in your books. You really look forward to the potions class in Hogwarts.

Since you leave kind of far away in the country you don't have a lot of friends other than the servants, your books and your parents. So you are a bit stressful about living in a castle alone for seven years. But you try not to think about it much.

Now it's time for you to finally go the Diagon Alley for shopping. Your mother already have the full list of books and school stuff you need in Hogwarts and some servants are buying them for you. But since you love animals, you go with your mom together to the pet shop and you are trying to decide what to get.

>Choices are the usual cats, owls and other normal pets for Hogwarts students. I will accept the one that gets the consensus.

>>42718879
The school wouldn't let any dangerous animals as pets and if a bee with a big sting goes wild it can kill students.

>>42718884
Of course!

So since you can afford it, you don't really want to get an ordinary boring pet and beg your mom to buy you a nice magical bee. At first she doesn't like the idea but then her proud side comes out and she likes the idea that you will represent the family heritage with your pet. So she agrees and gets you a nice bee. What's his name?

You pass through the newspaper guy, you saw only the glimpse of the headline on the Prophet, "Karkaroff Released from Azkaban!" and a scary looking guy with an epic beard looking confused on the picture.

You enter the bookstore and the familiar smell of paper and books welcome you. You look around and see the Bestseller list on one wall with many colorful books with big fonts and you also see some kids at your age arguing about something about a book. There is also a man you think you remember seeing at your house one time talking something with the store owner.

You look around and read the labels to find the potions books. Finally you reach there. You can hear the kids arguing about the final of the Quidditch World Cup and how Brazil made it to the finals but you don't care.

You see some nice books like "One Thousand Magical Herbs and Fungi by Phyllida Spore" or "Moste Potente Potions". You go through some of the books in a fast way to look at recipes and pictures. Then you hear your mom calling for you. "Don't you know you shouldn't wander off like that?? Especially when everything is so chaotic these days!!" She seems a bit angry. She takes you out by pulling you from your arm and the kids look at you with half pity half amusement.

She takes you to the Ollivander's. Finally the big day has arrived for you to have your own wand!

The wood is Rowan.

>>42719313
The want is slightly springy and you feel really good to hold it in your hands. You think it feels "right"

>>42719324
And finally it's core is Dragon Heartstring.

Ollivander looks happy with himself and tells you a bit about your wand.

"Dragon heartstrings produce wands with the most power, and which are capable of the most flamboyant spells and Rowan wands are known for their protective characteristics and has been a favored wood for wands. It is usually said no dark wizard or witch ever owned a Rowan wand in the history. At least as far as I know..."

Your mom looks pleased that finally this has been done and says it's time to go home since the servants have already bought all the books, scales, potion vials..etc everything else you need. Then another boy enters the shop with his mom. He has a ginger hair and freckles on his face. He holds the hand of his mother, who is just a bit fat but looks quite happy. Ollivander welcomes them warmly but you can see your mom is not pleased. She says "Let's go" in a cold way.

You hear Ollivander talking with the new comers. "...ah yes, yes dear Molly, good times indeed..." you follow your mother outside and once again step on the cobblestones of the Diagon Alley. The weather is getting a bit colder with the evening. You ask your mom with sudden curiousity about her wand. She takes out her wand from a black silk pouch attached to her belt and says "It is red oak, my dear. A fast reacting type. The core is as same as yours, the Dragon Heartstring. And as you can see..." she bends it a bit with her hands "it is quite bendy" She smiles warm. You can see her pride when she talks about her wand. "I am sure you will achieve greatness with your wand, my love. Don't worry" She winks at you with her green eyes.

Your mother has black hair and green eyes. She is lean and her cheekbones are one of her defining features. She is usually considered a beautiful woman. Your father also has black hair but he has brown eyes. You look a lot more like your mother than your father in terms of appearance. You also have green eyes like your mother. You do not wear any glasses and have black hair. You are average height and average weight.

She says now it's time to go home since the servants already bought all the other things necessary. "Do you ever think about which house you will enter in Hogwarts?" she asks you in a casual way.

>No (truth)
>No (lie)
>Yes, but I have no idea.
>I want to go to "X" House
>I don't know but I definitely don't want to go to "X" House
>>
>>42719561
Yes you do have 2 house elves as servants. But you don't have much chance or time to interact with them. You only know their names and that they work in the gardens and in the kitchen. One of them is called "Olli" and the other is "Poldi" You don't know anything about them being mistreated at your house.
>>
>>42719720

You know, since we didn't have any friends of our own, it wouldn't be impossible that we got at least somewhat friendly with the house elves in our childhood.
>>
>>42719727
>>Yes, but I have no idea.
Which house did you get because that would b good for me right?
>>
>>42719746
There is no such thing as "truly good organization". Any secret advantage will be abused sooner or later. If we want to make good in the long run, we should share information openly.

We know she was in Slytherin and our dad is from Hufflepuff.

>>42719774
Sometimes you went to see them in the kitchen but it was usually followed by your mom getting angry with you for wasting the time of the elves and also for spending your own time with useless things like lesser servant creatures. You usually preferred to read after a few of this kind of incident and you were usually happy as a child, not a sad loner.

>>42719784
>>42719751
>>42719746

You look at your feet and just say "Yeah sometimes I do...not a lot but...to be honest I have no idea. All of them seems to have nice stuff." Your mom doesn't say much other than that in her time it was 5 years straight that her house Slytherin won the House Cup but she also quickly adds "but don't worry probably lot of things have changed now."

You will leave for home and then a time lapse to the train station if you don't want to try anything else while you are in the Diagon Alley.

Ask mom why wizards and witches use wands, when kids and other magic-using creatures demonstrate magic that seems pretty strong without using them.
>>
>>42719927
You know, I always felt that wands were somewhat like a funnel, or a dam. You reduce the amount of magic you can use in exchange for a much easier time controlling it, but in the end you still can't use your full potential with the wand.
Maybe the elder wand was powerful because it aided control without capping the user's full power.
>>
>>42719865
Well we have our pet, our books, and our wand. lets see if we can find a book about Hogwarts.
>>
>>42720060
Or maybe ask mom and pop anything we need to know about the castle.
>>
>>42719608
You have read "The Call of the Wild", "James and the Giant Peach" and "The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood"

>>42719927
On the way home you ask your mom about wands and why do you need one. She says "Sometimes when you reach a certain age and you start to show your magical talent, you can't cast spells but certainly do magical things or random effects. This is because you are growing out of your childhood and gaining your magical talent for the first time..." It looks like something that Muggles call "puberty" in their books, that give you strange magics. "But it's just a random thing my dear. To properly cast spells and master magic you need an elegant tool like our wands. Of course some great wizards can even cast spells perfectly without wands but that is another craft you might learn one day..." Then she quickly adds "And don't worry about other creatures that can use magic. Some of them have powerful magic it is true but none of them can be equal to a witch or a wizard, especially a pureblood like yourself my little Merlin!" She smiles.

Finally you reach your house and you have time to inspect what the servants have bought for you. Or you can do something else either.

You can also search for your house's own library for a book on Hogwarts. Or just ask your mom/dad.

Well we definitely need to bring a few treatises on magical animals with us, if for no other reason than we enjoy them and have no conception of how to spend free time beyond reading.

Do you think because we're rich our parents might have a couple of fun magical items scattered throughout the estate? Let's do a little digging before we catch the train for school.

You check everything they bought and control it from the list they have sent from the Hogwarts. All seems in order. When you check the library there are some books that you haven't had the time to read year. You take two books with you, one of them is "Hogwarts, A History by Bathilda Bagshot" and the other one is "Marauding with Monsters by Gilderoy Lockhart" They seem cool.

Then you think about maybe asking your father about the people you saw back at the Ollivander's but you are not sure if it's important or not.

Ask mom and/or dad what happens when magic-using creatures use a wand.

We probably haven't read about the ban, it seems like one of those laws that doesn't come up often to wizards.

We won't get an unbiased account from mother dearest. She seems awesome but stinks of hubris. Let's just interrogate the (assuredly) weak-willed kid of whoever that plump lady was once we get to school.

You start looking for some items that can be useful in Hogwarts. You check some rooms and your father's study. Finally you find two useful things. A feather pen that automatically corrects your grammar and writing mistakes when you are writing something. And a small vial of potion with a white label that reads "Volubilis" you remember from your readings that it is something to do with voice. Then you hear your father calling for you. He seems interested to learn about your shopping day. After talking with him for a while you think about maybe asking him about the people you saw and you tell him the events.

He thinks a little bit and then says "The husband of that woman you saw helped Ministry to arrest your Mom's cousin Leila. You remember her? She was here for your birthday a few years ago... Anyway so your mom doesn't like her very much... Leila is a nice woman don't worry my boy, she has been only confused a bit. I am sure she will be okay." He says with a fake smile.

We're a kid, so we probably don't know the deep implications of this stuff.

You ask him about his wand and he says that it's nothing special with a smile. It's made of cherry wood and has a unicorn hair as it's core. He doesn't take it out and you are not sure if he carries it on him right now. He doesn't seem to enjoy talking about Leila so he just shrugs and says it will be sorted out soon, you don't need to worry about this things.

When you ask about houses, he laughs and tells you not to stress since the Sorting Hat always puts people in the place they belong.

Some weeks pass and you spend your days by playing with your pet bee or reading some textbooks for the next year. Finally the time comes and you leave your house for the King's Cross station. Your father and mother look very proud and happy. They tell you their goodbyes and to write them all the time and they will help you in case you need ANY thing. It is a nice, normal goodbye. You feel sad and very very excited and a bit afraid but you manage to pull yourself and enter the "wall" as they tell you to.

Now you are looking at a bright red train, lot of students running around, strange voices, kids with small cages like you have to carry their pets. You think you catch a glimpse of the kid you saw in the Ollivander's but he disappears into the train.

You see some kids entering the train, by their look they look like first graders like you. And there is a guy who is looking through his clothes in his luggage near the train.

You say to the kid "Ahh okay but let's just enter the train. You can search for it there anyway. I think the train will leave soon." The kid agrees with you and you both enter the train. He tells you his name is "Valdis Viridian" and you also introduce yourself to him.

You continue to the next car and the train starts moving. It is becoming difficult to walk and carry all this stuff. Melissa Cordellia is starting to get stressed.

Just as you look to the compartments you feel someone come from behind you and hold you from your shoulders. "What are you doing, boy? Go sit over there quickly or you will fall down!" The man who holds you and gently pushes you to the compartment to your right looks middle aged, with glasses and you have the feeling that you just met one of your teachers. "Yeah go on come on!" He opens the door and puts you inside a compartment and leaves. Inside there are two first graders, a guy and a girl. The guy is blond and has some books on his lap. And the girl has long curly hair. She is chewing a gum while looking at you curiously.

We're a sheltered bookworm from a rich family.

We are completely out of our element.

No idea how to talk to people our own age, only contact has been with parents or serving elves.

It's really difficult for a lot of people to read while in a moving vehicle (myself included).

Honestly, I just want our MC to not be a special snowflake who magically understands how to interact with his peers despite having zero practical experience doing so. We have literally no reason to be good at socializing, and several pretty compelling reasons for us to be hilariously awkward.
>>
You introduce yourself and also your bee. They seem to be surprised at your pet. The guy also recognizes your family's name. "Nice to meet an Apise." he says with a sly smile. But she doesn't seem to know about your family, probably a muggle born.

The girl offers you some gum and you after putting your stuff in a safe place sit down, start chewing and chilling with the two. They ask you where did you get that bee...and why?

The boy knows an uncomfortable amount about our family. Let's make friends with someone who won't give us shit on account of our aunt being a Voldemort supporter.

>>42721982

Only someone with about as much social exposure as our MC would believe that growing up without any friends to speak of wouldn't disadvantage him horribly when trying to break the ice with his peers.
>>
>>42722031
There's a goddamn difference between being scared of conversations and not being used to it! If you don't understand that then you probably shouldn't vote for stuff like that.
>>
>>42721982

When I was growing up I met a kid who was homeschooled. We were on the same Little League team.

He had a lot more social exposure than our MC, and was a genuinely cool, nice kid. Still took him years to develop an understanding of social cues and feel comfortable in social situations. Wasn't autistic, just inexperienced.

Which leads me to believe that our MC will be similar, if not worse.

I get that he wouldn't know what to say at all time, but panic attacks and anxiety would only happen for someone who's personality has been developed that way.

You talk about your passion for all kinds of magical creatures and animals. You explain them how you get the bee and some basic information about how to keep her and feed her. Anya seems really fascinated by it. David doesn't seem interested in the bee and he just comments on your family symbol and says it fits you. You get the vibe that he is being fake with your or just trying to suck up to you.

"Oh your family has a symbol? That is so cool! My parents doesn't have any symbols but they have a bookstore. Do you like books?"

You continue to talk about the books. She says she feels very happy to discover a whole new world of books in the wizard world. She asks you for suggestions. And tells you she knows mostly Muggle books and her favorite writer is a guy called Jules Verne. You have no idea who is that. She says she also started to read a bit the textbooks so she doesn't stay behind the other classmates.

David seems a bit bored with the conversation about the books. He says he only took this books out of his bag and onto his lap was because he was taking out something else...something cooler...like his quidditch magazine! He says playing quidditch is way more cool than reading some boring books.

You talk until the food arrives. You talk a bit more on the books and also muggles. She tells you how there are scientists and inventors in the muggle world who come up with new machines and things like this to ease the life. You don't understand a lot of what she is trying to say.

You also occasionally talk with David. He tells you his favorite team Brazil has won the World Cup this year.

Then you all compare your wands. David has a ash wood, unicorn hair wand and Anya has a vine wood with dragon heartstring core. She says she doesn't understand what exactly is the different between wands. You keep idle chat like this and then it's time to eat.

You order some oysters and bread and honey. You are used to eating food like this. Anya orders a simple spaghetti bolognese and David orders two hamburgers.

You put a cover for the cage of the bee and slowly get out of the train when it arrives at the Hogwarts. You three keep talking about houses on the way. You are a bit afraid of the dark waters of the lake when you cross it with the boats but still you try to concentrate on the conversation. You are also on the same boat with the kid of the Ollivander's by luck.

Anya says she read a bit about the houses but she doesn't know which house she will be sorted. Yet she thinks Ravenclaw is cool. David says he thinks Gryffindor is cool because he likes the colours but maybe there are more powerful wizards in Slytherin. You say you don't know which house you want for sure.

I've tried more than a few kinds of alcohol, and I really just don't like the taste of it.
I've loved martinelli's apple cider since I was ten, and it tastes good, so why should I stop liking it?

Alcoholic beverages just aren't for me, and that's fine. If anything, it's pretty beneficial for me to be averse to it, both healthwise and safetywise.

You introduce yourself to the kid and say "I think I saw you in the Ollivander's..." He shakes your hand and introduces himself as "Bill Weasley" When you hear his last name you realize you remember it from somewhere. You definitely heard or read it before. You just have the chance to talk a bit when the boats reach the shore. Bill leaves pretty quickly when the boat stops and doesn't wait for you guys and disappears into the crowd.

You enter the castle for the first time and you are enchanted by it's beauty. Anya might be having a heart attack since she keeps saying "wow" or "awesome!" every second. David tries to hide his amazement but he is also really excited.

A witch with a pointy hat introduces herself as Professor McGonagall and leads you all to the Great Hall. There a dusty old hat is sitting on a chair. Of course you know the ceremony.

Basically you wait until everyone sits and gets sorted. First Daniel is called. He sits on the chair and the hat thinks for a few seconds. Then shouts: "SLYTHERIN!"

Then the hat calls for Anya. She tells you before going "Wish me luck!" and sits on the chair. The hat immedietly sorts her as "RAVENCLAW!"

Then you are called. "John Vipsanius Apise!"

You walk to the chair. Every step feels like one kilometer. Your heart pumping out of your chest. You put the hat on your head. He speaks inside your mind. "Well hello, what do we have here? An Apise! Hmm I remember I put your father and his father into Hufflepuff. And you have a soul for it I can say... oh but your mother... She was a fierce one. A definite Slytherin witch of great promise... I can see her in you. But...also you have a mind for greatness and intellect."

You think about your mom and promise of greatness and glory. Then you think about recent events and for a second a shadow pass through your mind. Then you think about your father and his father and following them on the same road. Then you catch a glimpse of Arya and the rest of the Ravenclaw table. Your mind racing like crazy. "Where do I belong?" you ask to yourself. Maybe wanting to form your own identity without following your parents. Or maybe choosing something familiar.

There are reasons for us to be in three of the houses. I think either Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw. We seem appropriate to ravenclaw's bookishness and our waifu is there.

Hufflepuff would make a really effective Hive. And they don't get any love in the books, so I'd like to see them expanded upon. Plus they are yellow and black. Its like we already have a superhero outfit.

The hat keeps talking to you about possibilities and then...

"Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw,
If you've a ready mind,
Where those of wit and learning,
Will always find their kind."

It screams "RAVENCLAW!" a big applaud and cheers follow from the Ravenclaw table. You are feeling like don't know how to feel, start walking towards Anya and the table. Inside you feel relaxed.
