Read on FFN. Read on AO3.
The constant awkward first dates, the flirtations that went over his head, the constant interest in his backstory; it was a nightmare.
He’d thought it would just be an issue in the wizarding world, but -even in the muggle world- he had no luck finding someone he’d happily spend his time with. It wasn’t so much that people didn’t want him, but that he never seemed to find anyone he was compatible with. At least in the wizarding world, he could get by with small-talk about the Quidditch season, or what courses he took at O.W.L level.
In the muggle world? No chance. His knowledge of muggle pop culture had never exactly been top-tier, but it had been thrown into sharp relief whenever his date tried to converse about something.
‘Do you think they’ll ever bring back “Doctor Who”?’
‘My aunt and uncle locked me in my cupboard whenever I tried to watch it.’
‘What music do you like?’
‘Anything that my cousin didn’t use to punch me to the tune of.’
‘You think England will win the World Cup next year?’
‘Which sport is the world cup about, again?’
Yeah, considering that he’d spent most of his childhood living in a cupboard, it kinda prevented any relaxed conversation of shared interests.
This was why Harry had turned to his friends for help. It was an early morning during the middle of the week, and Harry had found himself inside Hermione’s office at the ministry, with Ron cheerfully tagging along.
