chapter twenty one | December 2015

   Julianne Weasley hurried out of her house in Spinner’s End, pulling her coat close as she ran from the comfort and warmth of her house to her Honda CRV. She started up the engine, letting it heat up as she rubbed her hands together. She looked around for oncoming cars and proceeded to back up the newly paved driveway of her home.     Parts of the street remained cobbled just like it had…

chapter eighteen | Cousins

   Severus had, at one point or another, been close to a girl by the name Aquilla, who shared a similar name to him. Except, her parents loved her, and she was a pureblood, two things he did not have.    Meanwhile, Lucius had regarded Aquilla like a younger sister.     She took to following her seniors of the fold. She copied them when they each received their honorable marks. She mimicked…

chapter seventeen | Dragon

   Draco was candid with June once they all left the wand shop.    “Do you not like it here?” He asked when he was sure no one was listening.    June was still holding her wand with a tight grip when she looked up at the boy.    “It’s not that I don’t like it here. It’s just not what I’m used to.”    “You’ve said so before.”    “Then why are you asking?”    He pocketed his hands, “wouldn’t…

chapter sixteen | Ollivanders

   It was a conversation not heard daily, and it was an interesting one. Ollivander had watched the children and the adults with them for some time, talking about last names as if they were the golden ticket to his store.    Surnames held a certain honor, of course, depending on the name one chooses. It was an important decision to make. He enjoyed seeing the differences in the four of them.…

chapter fourteen | The Alden Children

chapter fourteen | The Alden Children

Juniper Juniper woke up with a wide-eyed elf staring down on her.“Holy cra- you scared the shit out of me.” She thumped at her chest as she tried to calm down. “You wouldn’t have a better way of waking me up, do you Elvina?”“Good morning to the miss. I’ve prepared your outfit for the day.”“You know,” June sat up, “you’ll have to fix how you speak. They’ll catch on soon enough.”“Elvina will do…

Juniper liked long handwritten letters, so when Draco introduced their family owl to her, she’d nagged him to let her write at least one letter.Julianne received the letter tentatively at Spinner’s End after her one-woman battle with the entire student body.She’d been surrounded by endless arrays of questions about herself, her siblings, and her lineage. Her blood was a big topic. She’d answered,…

chapter four | Father Time | Summer

chapter four | Father Time | Summer

Unlike spring, summer was eventful with Jon and Julie’s birthdays one after the other to look forward to. And near the end of the season, there was beach time- swimming and eating watermelon on the shores. There was a one-week vacation to England too, one they were all excited to go to. But before any of those, there was still the month of June. “So, by this time next year, after we’re all…

chapter three | Father Time

chapter three | Father Time

After that dream, June found herself dreaming of the Manor, of the alabaster boy, and the young elf over and over again in the course of half a year. And yet again, she woke up with a start. Sitting up straight, she looked around her room. It was her normal room, the one that was the size of her closet in her dream, and one she shared with her eldest sister. Her eyes wandered over to the…

chapter two | Only a Dream

chapter two | Only a Dream

The body under the silky-smooth gray bed sheet squirmed, uncomfortable from the sudden coldness, unlike summer. Heck, she didn’t think she needed a thick blanket, but there she was curled into a ball under the said thick blanket. An echoing knock finally woke her up. Juniper felt around for the edge of the blanket, hoping to test the weather outside of her comfort zone. Her fingers curled in,…

chapter one | the Only Memory

chapter one | the Only Memory

May 2, 1998 Where the evergreen hedges met olive trees, a pained bluebird lay squealing, pecking at its broken wing. A young girl with familiar black hair watched the tiny creature from a foot away. Juniper Black saw a flash of a younger version of herself, who was unsure of what to do with the bird. It happened for a millisecond in her mind, though long enough to recognize it for what it was.…

Book 1 | ToJ and the Family Tree

trying to transfer my fanfic from wattpad to its own wp site. free still, i just get to schedule posts. lol

Synopsis: Life was wonderfully mundane with siblings, who bring joy and a family she couldn’t ask more of. There was nothing she was of want but for the days to remain as peacefully as they’d ever been. Jeanne Alden had dreams she didn’t like to think about because they felt a little too real, but when her siblings’ curiosities are piqued by a letter sent to them, they go on a bit of an…

author's note.

author’s note.

Copyright © 2011-2021 by Vela June This is a rewriting of The Tale of Juniper, which I first wrote back in 2011 as a self-insert fanfiction for the Harry Potter Universe. It has since evolved above the notion of ‘ self-insert ‘ as a story of its own. If you are a reader of the previous renditions, you’ll find that rereading will be necessary. I’ve changed much of the story from the one already…

[tanoraqui]

the reason Tolkien pulls off “magic is leaving the world” without it being depressing or disappointing is that the whole story is about how this loss is sad, yes, but also right for the time, and moreover that the magic—the elves, the dragons, the dark lords with magic rings and returned kings with legendary swords—were never the important thing. “Returned king with legendary sword” is literally a ploy the heroes use to hide the real hero, Frodo Baggins of the Shire. The end of the story isn’t the ship leaving for the West, it’s Sam coming home to Bag End. The wonderful thing in Middle Earth isn’t what is lost, it’s what remains, what is saved.
