( v. reason says I should have died )
September 2000. The Hogwarts Express is filled with hopeful souls, everywhere but the last car. The last car is silent as a tomb, filled with people who seem disconnected and lost. They are the veterans of the Second Wizarding War, returning to Hogwarts for their last year. An entire year has come and gone since the final battle, and while the physical wounds have begun to heal and scar over, not everyone is entirely certain about their return. In the wake of the battle, graduates have begun to return to fill the positions left open by the staff members killed LOST in battle, and other still volunteer to add to the security of the school, even without the looming threat of Voldemort.
Tensions are high. So high that anxiety attacks and panic attacks are at an all time high with madame Pomfrey having to administer droughts of peace and smelling salts at alarming rates. Students are found wandering halls at all hours and the so called ‘8th year’ students are often given passes on such behavior. They begin to congregate in the room of requirement on the days that Dumbledore’s Army would have met, and try not to flinch when they notice the empty spaces where their friends used to stand.
It’s not spoken at first— a support group for those who had survived. It began simply with whispered conversations in the dead of night, and slowly began to grow. Those left behind begin to meet in the room of requirement, students and teachers alike meet to share stories and to remember those lost to the battle. They are held together by these meetings, each in turn learning to cope with the new realities of this new life and how the light they’ve brought to the wizarding world can seem so dark.
IC drama is fine, OOC drama is not.
Track the tag (v. reason says I should have died ). All starters, starter calls should be tagged with this, as well
Please no duplicates. Once a character has been taken, it’s taken unless the blog is deleted or goes completely inactive for an extended period of time.
This verse is somewhat dark, and triggering, please use caution when applying.
Canon can be bent for the sake of the verse, but please try not to stray too far. Ex. Fred surviving is okay. Voldemort surviving is not. This will be handled on a case by case basis.
All major events must be passed by me ( ex. pregnancies since most characters will be of age )
This is set in the Golden Trio Era, please no crossovers from next gen or maurauders era ( as students )
Ask me if you have any questions I swear I don’t bite.
Simply message me and tell me who your muse is, their age, their year, and their house. If accepted feel free to post a small bio in the tag about the general mental and physical state your muse is in, how they feel about returning to Hogwarts etc. This is not mandatory but it is recommended.
