"Uh...hi?" I asked as I stared at the woman who had opened the door.
Harry was standing in the center of the chaos with a black-haired man, one red head boy his age, one bushy haired girl his age, and a red head girl, slightly younger dancing with two red head twins about my age doing some kind of hoppity hop dance singing 'he got off'.
"That's enough – Fred- George- Ginny!" The woman called over her shoulder before turning to me, "What can I do for you dear?" She asked politely,
"Umm Dumbledore kind of dropped me here and left," I said rubbing the back of my neck. She peered at me quietly before her eyes went wide and grabbing my arm, she pulled me inside.
"Molly, who is that?" The black-haired male asked peering suspiciously at me,
"He's a guest of Dumbledore,"
"He's the one who got me off!" Harry said coming over, smiling, "Thanks for that, is Dumbledore here?" he asked looking around I frowned at that, what-
"No- he kind of dropped me off here and left," I said casting a glance to the woman who just subtly shook her head as Harry deflated. I hesitated before shrugging slightly, "On the bright side, I'll be a co-teacher next year,"
"Really!? For what class?" The bushy-haired girl asked coming forward and I hesitated,
"Defense against the Dark Arts," I said and Hermione raised her eyebrow,
"You don't seem sure,"
"Hermione!" The redhead said shocked and I laughed,
"I'm not, it's a favor for Dumbledore," I said and her eyes narrowed at me,
"So how will you teach us if you don't know the material?" she asked
"Hermione! You can't just-," Harry protested this time, but I interrupted him,

"I'm going to be a co-teacher. Basically, babysitting someone that Fudge appointed," I explained,
"Percy- we don't really..." Molly explained I turned to face her, and she hesitated, "... they're children," She finished looking at me meaningfully. I ducked my head slightly, not liking that phrase very much.
"I understand your concerns, but as I understand it, they are every bit a part of this as you are." I said calmly and her lip trembled slightly before she nodded sharply,
"Alright then," She clapped her hands together, "Who's ready for dinner?
The days dragged by and Umbridge had sent me her lesson plans. I groaned and tossed them onto the table rubbing my head.
"Anything wrong Professor?" Hermione asked, despite my instance to call my Percy she refused, saying it was 'improper' or something.
"I finally got Umbridge lesson plans, but I can't read," I groaned, Hermione's mouth dropped open,
"What do you mean you can't read?!" Hermione asked incredulously I rolled my eyes,
"I have Dyslexia," I said and Hermione pursed her lips, before gesturing towards the papers,
"May I?" she asked, but I hesitated. Before shaking my head and collecting the papers,
"I would appetite it, but Umbridge would have my head and I don't want to start off on the wrong foot," Hermione nodded, understanding before settling down next to me,
"I know it's none of my business, but Harry is really missing Dumbledore, he's the closest thing Harry's got to a father figure," Hermione said peering at me, "Could you talk to him-," I sighed nodding,
"I already did, something about 'it being safer for Harry' or something. It's complete horse poop of course, but he doesn't seem to be listening to reason." I explained, Hermione jumping up in rage,

"What!? That's complete nonsense! Since the beginning Dumbledore has been the one keeping you-know-who away!" she exclaimed and I grimaced nodding,
"Sorry I couldn't do more, although I believe your book lists are coming today so there's that," I mentioned just as an owl swept in dropping some envelopes on the table, and going right back out, "Speak of Hades," I murmured and Hermione looked at me strangely,
"What?" I asked she shook her head before going back to the letters
"Defensive Magical Theory by Wilbert Slinkhard, seems to be your book- will you be reading it with us?" Hermione asked and I gave her a half-hearted shrug, not if I can help it. Suddenly my phone rang and I jumped up digging it out of my pocket,
"How did-," I winked at her, "It's protected against magic," I said before answering it,
"Hey Wise girl!"

Chronicles of the last Leïn
This is the story of a child. One who should be dead, as nothing survives them. But the child fled and was rescued, through an act that broke prophecies and shattered Truth. Even though it was only an extended arm. Now, after excaping true horror, she faces the challenge of the grim reality. She needs to adapt; to survive, but also simply to live. Even though she was never meant to. This a world of fantasy. Magic exists, marvelous creatures roam the lands. But in no way is this reality fantastical, magical, or forgiving. It is one ruled by the Imperatrix. It takes place in an Empire that was created on the ashes of the War. And as it is true everywhere, its rules are made by the powerful, the rich and the mindless masses. [Release schedule is one chapter every two weeks on Fridays 8PM GMT+1 until I get myself in a good writing stride, and then I'll go back to one chapter per week.] (I am an aspiring author working full-time on my passion in the hope of one day being edited in either French or English, as I write in both languages.)

Millennia have passed since the Dragons had found us. Millennia have passed since they left us, separating the world in plumes of eternal rainbow fire. Millennia have passed since people began to wonder: were we worth saving? Dragons were beings of myth.

A rare few are afforded the chance to meet credible proof of the Dragons, the undisputed heirs and heroes of this declined age: The Scaled. These Children of Dragons are stronger, hardier, and some would say far smarter that other humans, differentiated only by the horns on their head and scales on their skin. Rael is...not one of them. But Rael does need to protect one. Any and all feedback is appreciated. Don't touch the Patreon button, I still haven't finished setting it up.

Author's Rant
Just a disclaimer, this is not and never will be a story. I just, noticed I have a bad habit of wanting to rant in my author's notes, and have decided that, instead of accidentally doubling the length of each chapter with the author's note alone, I will shove those long-ass rants here. It might contain spoilers for my stories, as I usually wind up ranting about different parts I'm writing. So, if you actually enjoy my rants...well, firstly, what is wrong with you? Secondly, welcome! Time to figure out what tags to stick on this. Also, as of the second chapter, I have decided to shove some of my story ideas here. So if you enjoy half-baked, unfinished stories, then I got those too. I think that adds that short story tag?
