(cas·san·dra · dur·sley) ☒ 1 cup of Muggle ☒ 1 cup of Pureblood ☒ 4 tablespoons of Hufflepuff ☒ 7 ounces of Hogwarts

Well that’s more than I can say. Surprisingly, I don’t know that many people who have the same name generally. Which says a lot about originality of ours parents’ generation since there’s so many students at the school.

Well that definitely makes sense. And, of course, you’re right. There always has to be a first to have a tradition so why not? Especially if it’s in your brother’s honor. I wish I had a brother. Or a sister, for that matter.

[c-dursley-blog]

Yeahhhh... Dad's never really been the creative type. But he is super cuddly~!

Mhm, well if it makes you feel any better, at least you never have to experience all the petty sibling fights? Those can get pretty nasty when you've both seen each other at your worst.

[littleravenlucy-deactivated2015]

I’ve been told I’m quite smart so that’s why.

Oooo, lucky youuuu! No?! Really? But what do you make of the hair or is it just a wig like I’ve always thought?

[c-dursley-blog]

You are! I'm way impressed right now, like goose pimples status impressed. 

Totes a wig. It's purposely awful, so no one—muggle, witch, or wizard—can make the connection. Like it's pretty much Transformation Tuesday everyday for him.

[liamtheravenclaw-deactivated201]

you and cass are super cute together!

Thanks!… Are you doing mind tricks with me?

[c-dursley-blog]

[liamtheravenclaw-deactivated201]

Well, I’m not a prefect, so can’t give you real points (sad face), but if I could, I most certainly. would.

… Oh, I know! You could have ten Liam Points? Would that work?

[c-dursley-blog]

Um... yes???

Liam points sound way more brill than regular old House points!

[daniellebadgerharper-deactivate]

It’s fine, I’m glad you explained it though. -Why did your dad name your brother after James’ dad then? —Am I meeting another side of the family? 

Yes, five sisters. I’m in the middle. No, they don’t. I’m Muggleborn, and the only person out of them who is a witch.

[c-dursley-blog]

Pop is actually James' dad's cousin. Mhm! It's like you think you've met everyone, but then more of us keep popping up like daisies. It's a non-stop cycle that even I'm not excluded from. 

Having sisters must be nice! Do they get a teeny bit jealous about the magic thing though?

[gryffinelliott]

I would! These things have totally happened before and I’m not gunna pretend I’ve never gotten ridiculously confused, context in this place doesn’t always make sense. If anyone gives you flak for it, they’re just dumb.

[c-dursley-blog]

Wow, thanks!

Like I'm totally part of the PHIM society—aka Prince-Harry-is-an-Immortal-Metamorpmagus—but it's all very hush-hush, so the only thing that I can say is that it's definitely plausible. Y'know, magically speaking.

[campusloser]

At least you’re brother is not here! I don’t mean it in a bad way but this way, he won’t get to experience the comparisons. I’d love to meet him one day though!

[c-dursley-blog]

Mhm, come over the holidays some day! I'm usually his go-to source for all the Hogwarts intel and gossip, but I think he'd open up way more if it were a man-to-man sort of deal. Like I totally lack the parts and everything, but I am making progress on the handshake-hug-greet thing.

[badgerroderickmeeks]

Sorry, when you said ‘you too, huh?’ I got confused… 

You’re related to him too? Do you know Lily and Hugo and all them? Ooh, nice one. Heh. Thanks… I love puns, I admit. Especially the groan-inducingly terrible ones. So this probably won’t be the last one you hair out of me.

[c-dursley-blog]

Nah, it's totally my bad! I was 'you too'ing at something else.

Yep! The cool part is that I pretty much know half the school, buuuut I can't really keep track of who's a second, third, or fourth cousin. It gets me into embarrassing situations all the time. Right? I don't understand why people don't like 'em, but I guess that means there's just more puns to share between you and me!

[everydayimhufflelynn]

Dude, it still sucks that he’s not here at Hogwarts with the rest of you, but that doesn’t make him any less cool. My dad’s a Muggle too and he’s one of the best guys I know. Hmm… Future father’s-cousin’s-daughter’s-husband Ryder A. Lynn? Unless Lily dumps me before that, but she keeps promising she won’t.

[c-dursley-blog]

Can't believe you're able to keep all that straight! Any attempted lineage talk on my part and I get a migraine. Talk about super impressive! 

Will do, though, and if it's any consolation, I don't think she won't! At least I sure hope not, I'm totes your guys' number one fan. 

[slytherinalpotter]

Yes, you lot of badgers do have a language all your own.

Well…maybe sometimes?  I rather was just confused what precisely you were referring to in this situation.

[c-dursley-blog]

We're still stuck on a name, though. Can't think of anything cooler sounding than Parseltongue.

I was talking about your dad and my brother!

[piersdolohov]

You… What?

[c-dursley-blog]

It's totally a real thing. Look it up.

[venomousbree]

You’d think after the second anniversary, you’d learn to be more specific.

[c-dursley-blog]

That's an idea, I s'pose.

But it's more of the other way around? I think I'm already pretty specific. Just ask anyone!

[hufflefranpuff-deactivated20150]

That sounds like what happens to a lot of people their first year.

[c-dursley-blog]

Oh, wow, really? Did it happen to you too?

[hufflepufflefran-deactivated201]

You should’ve told me, I would’ve made you a cake or something. Long title, but I’d find a way to fit it all in.

[c-dursley-blog]

Cakes are delicious and I've been told by my mum to always accept 'em, even if they're belated!

Just calls for a bigger cake, right? I can totally lend a hand, if you want! 

[daniellebadgerharper-deactivate]

I think my sisters and I used to play when I was younger, I don’t remember it. Oh, James’ dad then? You um, you’re rambling. Not that I don’t think it’s cute or anything. I do, but I understand.

[c-dursley-blog]

Right, sorry! But yeah, James' dad. ...There, no more rambling!

And ooh, sisters! Totally cool! Do they go here?

[sinuous-san]

…The what?

[c-dursley-blog]

It's a very special holiday! 

The details would probably just bore you, though.

[wilderavenkitty-blog]

Which Harry did you talk about?

[c-dursley-blog]

My brother! 

All the other Harrys kinda just mush together in second for me.
