《The Lion and The Raven ~ James Potter AU》CHAPTER 4
Advertisement
After James and Sirius got out the train, they were immediately pulled into a crowd of other first years heading after a man with a lamp who was directing them towards boats on the lake.
"Only four in a boat. No more!" screamed the man.
James and Sirius immediately got into a boat together. They then searched for Camilla, who was no where to be seen.
"Move forward!" commanded the man. The boats obeyed his command and moved as if by (pardon the pun) magic.
The Uncle and Nephew looked at their boat-mates.
One of them was a guy. He had light brown hair and clear blue eyes. James recognised him immediately, "Hey Frank."
The boy looked up, relieved to see a familiar face. "Hello James. Are you excited for the sorting?"
"Ya. Dad wouldn't tell me how we were going to be sorted, however. Do you know?" asked James.
Frank shook his head, "No. I asked mum as well. She said it was a Hogwarts secret, and that she could not tell me."
"My dad told us that we had to fight a troll." said the forth person in the boat.
The three boys looked at him in shock. The forth boy had flaming red hair, much like the girl they saw earlier. His face was full of freckles and he had the bluest eyes they had ever seen.
Frank clicked his tongue, "I saw you going on the other boat! Look!" he said pointing at a boat nearby
The other three boys looked. Sure enough, there was an identical boy there. Down to the last freckle.
The mysterious boy chuckled, "Oh, that loser? That's just my brother, Gideon. I'm Fabian, by the way. Fabian Prewett. The more handsome of the Prewett twins."

"And apparently, the more modest twin as well." commented Sirius with a grin.
Fabian smiled and with a twinkle in his eye said, "I'm going to like you three. I just know it."
"Are you really Fabian?" asked Frank. "Not Gideon pretending to be Fabian?"
'Fabian' flashed a guilty look, "Okay, you caught me. I'm Gidion. Or am I?" he asked mysteriously.
All the boys broke out into laughter.
"So, how is your brother sitting there when you are sitting here?" asked James curiously.
Fabian shrugged, "We lost each other in the crowd."
The boys nodded.
"Say," started Fabian "What are your names?"
"James. James Potter."
"Frank Longbottom."
"Black, Sirius Black."
"Black?" asked Fabian with a raised eyebrow. "I hope you haven't inherited too much of the Black family madness."
Sirius sighed. "Me too."
"We're related, you know." commented Fabian.
"The Blacks are related to literally every family." said Sirius dryly.
Fabian chuckled. "True."
"But, you are right. I mean, you are my first cousin through father." said Sirius. "Aunt Lucretia, right?"
Fabian nodded. "Thats my mum."
"But aren't the Prewett's neutral? I mean, I can understand the Potters and the Blacks not meeting much. Considering we are light and you are dark, but the Prewetts are grey." said James.
Sirius shrugged, "Unless you are dark, mother will never make an effort."
"The Longbottoms are related as well. Arcturus I and Lysandra Black nee Yaxley's first daughter was my grandmother, Callidora Longbottom nee Black." informed Frank.
"That makes us family. Family sticks together." said a grinning Sirius. "Now, tell me boys. What do you feel about pranking?"
Fabian grinned while Frank sighed deeply.

The Joy of Evolution
"Alright, so I have this idea, a completely original one by the way, never done before." I say. "Alright, lets hear it." You reply happily. "What if you got trapped in the body of a tentacle monster that looks like a virus in a world that is like a videogame, with skills and... whoops slip of the tendril there, what I meant to say is Mutations and Levels as you evolve your way up from being that lowly creature into a slightly better lowly creature, all the while, an evil devil person watches over you for entertainment purposes." I say making weird hand gestures across the table. "Oh and that main character used to be a human male and uses its past experience as one to survive in this new world as a little mass of flesh." I pull out a little ball with suction cup tendrils and show you. "So, what do you think?" " I dont know seems, a little sameish, I think Im gonna go." You say as you start to get up from your worn but still plush velvet chair. "Wait" I sigh, " I didnt want to do this but you leave me no choice, I promise you an extremely diverse harem..." The door closes as you leave. "They'll come back." I say hopeful. Cover: https://phil.cdc.gov/Details.aspx?pid=21073

Tales of Teleios
Born as a noble free-man, the only daughter of a lord, Arete of Syracuse was an ambitious young woman who would do anything to succeed her father's position. One day, her father was exposed of his secret movement attempted to overthrow the emperor... Tales of Teleios set in the ancient Greco-Roman. It is a very standard adventure, low fantasy, alternate historical story with common archetype and predictable storyline. It is a form of artistic expression. 🏳️🌈 LGBTQIA+ Content Tag 🙇 ESL Author 📖 A Very Brief Summary 📖 (Unavoidable Spoiler) This story is about Arete of Syracuse (the protagonist) who was on a journey to find a mysterious Teleios of Eretria. Travelling with her servant Matea, her maternal cousin Agave and a former hetaira named Pryne. Throughout their journey, they discovered the conspiracy behind the Emperor Nero's eugenic system. This story explores the topic of human advancement. Tracing the idea back to the Greco-Roman world, the idea of eugenicism started when humans attempted to achieve perfection through breeding enhancements. However, The Three Elders realised that they couldn't afford waiting on the natural process of evolution. Thus, they came out with the controversial idea of experimentation through the building up of monstrosities using different body parts of animals and attempting to achieve immortality through taking over the younger human bodies. Teleios means perfection, and the center of this story is about the journey of four very flawed characters: The protagonist, Arete was a skinny noble woman who was born premature and had amenorrhea. She was supposed to be drowned by the order of Emperor Claudius due to her imperfection. While Matea was born a perfect healthy person, but has had everything taken away from her. Agave who was born out of wedlock but was fortunate enough to be adopted into a noble family. And Pryne who was on her way to have a loving family but drifted instead throughout the world after making a decision that she deeply regretted and needed to overcome her sense of guilt along the way. The story will explore some of the most controversial topics which involved detestable ancient practices such as pedarastry, where as the Empress Sporus, being the victim of it, coping with her tragic experience through acceptance of the oppressor and her struggle for not being able to conceive. In summary, the topics were largely related to gender and sex. There will be violence and gore, as most of the fantasy works does. while the author here would like to inform the readers that this is not an erotica, nor it has any sentences that involve depiction of sexual activities. Therefore, this story is not for those who seek thrill on its sexual content. A dialogue of Empress Sporus: "The world itself abused us to a level unimaginable! Yet we have to learn to love the world! Simply to live! To make our life a little easier, a little happier. So what is wrong with that? Are you expecting me to go against the emperor when he is the one and only reason I became the empress?" Said Sporus.
