Alma the Creator of Magical Chess

1975-????

Alma Sharp is the daughter of Esteban Sharp and his Muggle lover. While her mother was pregnant with her, she found out about the existence of magic and took the news very negatively. Thus, Esteban had to obliviate her immediately after Alma's birth and raise the girl on his own.

Born on December 13th, 1974, she is a Ravenclaw like her father, whom she adores and looks up to.

Alma has a keen and strategic mind, which she uses while playing her favourite game, chess, as well as Quidditch in the position of Chaser. She's also very headstrong and competitive, beating her opponents smartly. Many consider her irritating due to her snarky attitude.

Alma participates in many chess tournaments and eventually decides to design chess boards and pieces for a living. Her passion is what put her together with her husband, Murphy McNully. Together, they have two children, Castiel and Caissa McNully.

Murphy McNully Appreciation Post

(because he’s super underrated in the Hogwarts Mystery fandom fr)

Here’s a list of all the cool stuff I like about him:

1. He beat Minerva McGonagall (and her brother) at Wizard’s chess, her specialty subject. As a student! In a chess tournament that he won! She was a literal teacher, and he still beat her! Which is pretty impressive, I think.

2. Murphy is a statistical/mathematical genius. Who else can calculate incredibly precise stats in a moments notice and constantly incorporate them into speech all the time… for fun? Total nerd, I know, but still. His potential is definitely wasted being a Quidditch commentator. Should’ve been a statistician or something.

3. He has a near encyclopaedic knowledge of Quidditch. In one of the TLSQ’s, he mentioned reading Quidditch Through the Ages 78 times. Even I haven’t read the Harry Potter series that many times. Also, he pretty much knows everything about the sport, despite (probably) never have played it himself.

4. Murphy is a genuinely kind person also. Always offering to help Lyds (MC) with training, learning manoeuvres, and generally just hanging out. He also really loves his mother, mentioning her quite a few times and saying she’s his favourite witch. That’s sweet. Murphy can be vulnerable too, as he was to Lyds in the first Quidditch season over a chess game.

5. Hot as fuck

Ship Week Day 2: Summer, Creatures

💙🦅 m!Rowan/Murphy, post Fifth Year

@hphm-fandom-events

Despite what his parents might tell you, Murphy is not panicking.

Sure, it may look like he’s panicking. He’s brushed Kneil about six more times than necessary, and he can admit that the only reason he hasn’t done it a seventh time is that Kneil extends his claws whenever Murphy gets near him now. His room is immaculate with how much he’s tidied it. He is, in fact, currently wheeling back and forth around the house in what may be considered “pacing.” He’s not panicking, though. It’s excitement. Not nerves.

Maybe if he keeps telling himself that, he’ll start believing it.

See, all his parents know is that a friend from school is bringing his cat over for a playdate with Kneil, and thus they have no idea what’s got Murphy all up in a tizzy. The truth is that Rowan is coming over for the first time. You know, Rowan Khanna. Murphy’s boyfriend. The boyfriend who’s never seen him outside of school before.

And sure, they share a dorm at school. It’s not like they’ve never seen each other out of uniform or anything (not that that stopped Murphy from changing outfits four times already, and he’s considering making it a nice five). They’ve been dating a decent amount of time, too - two months, eighteen days, twenty one hours, forty six minutes, and nine seconds - so realistically, this isn’t an “early in the relationship” type of date where Rowan could decide that actually, never mind, he’s not interested. Although...

They haven’t physically seen each other since school let out. The 30th of June to now, the 22nd of August, rounding up to a full twenty four hours for simplicity, is fifty days out of the seventy seven that they’ve officially been dating, which means they’ve only actually been in contact about thirty five point one percent of the time they’ve been together. And while it’s true that Rowan hasn’t missed a single day of consecutive letters that are absolutely not in a box at the back of Murphy’s closet, fifty days (or roughly sixty four point nine percent of their total relationship) is a long time to not see someone in person. It’s completely possible that the spark is gone. Rowan might see him today and realize he would rather just be friends. Which is something that Murphy would respect, of course, but, well. It’d hurt.

At this point he’s just going to accept that he’s panicking. It seems like the logical course of action here. Of course, right as he’s accepted his nerves and decided that he should probably try breathing, the doorbell chimes.

Unfortunately, Murphy is at the wrong end of the house, so it’s his mother who opens the door to greet Rowan and - oh, wow, that is quite possibly the fluffiest cat Murphy has ever seen. Majestic, really. It’s almost enough to distract him from Rowan in a t-shirt and shorts and oh wow, breathing is important. Where Murphy decided to take a smart-casual approach with a nice polo, Rowan is clearly dressed for pure comfort; for some reason it’s doing things to Murphy’s head.

Kneil is entirely unaffected. He confidently struts up to his fuzzy home invader for a greeting, which Fuzzclaw (very aptly named) cheerfully accepts, and thank Merlin for that, because if their pets had disliked each other Murphy had calculated a twenty two point eight percent chance of a break up, so that’s no longer something he needs to worry about.

He hears his mother exclaim about how cute the cats are - well, cat and kneazle, technically speaking, though they are adorable - before excusing herself to the back garden. He hears Rowan cooing, sees Rowan kneel down to pet the two fluffy new friends, sees the brilliant grin Rowan flashes him. He’s fully aware of what’s happening. It’s just that, well... embarrassingly enough, Murphy is pretty sure his jaw is hanging open. Despite being more of the practical type, there’s nothing but domestic daydreams in his head right now of him and Rowan in a nice house similar to this one but much further into the countryside, with their three cats because of course they would need one together and oh god now he’s picturing kids -

Two months, eighteen days, twenty one hours, fifty two minutes, and thirty three seconds. He’s definitely jumping the starting whistle a bit, which is a foul in Quidditch and usually a bad idea in dating. Murphy finally closes his mouth and enters the room fully instead of lingering in the hall like a crazy person.

Rowan is staring by now, still smiling but likely confused as to why Murphy hasn’t said anything, which is fair, and Murphy definitely should say something, though he can’t quite seem to manage it. A "hello" would be a good start. Although: there are ways to greet people without words, and they are dating...

When his boyfriend giggles into the kiss, Murphy almost sighs in relief.
