Description
Nova Lupin, despite her warm, sunshine-like smile and golden hearted nature, has a hard time with control-whether it be the changing colours of her eyes or the burning emotion inside of her trying to claw its way out. When her father gets a job at the most prestigious wizarding school in the world, Nova joins him (despite having been homeschooled all her life) because, wherever Remus goes, Nova goes. They are a packaged deal, never without the other and although Remus likes to keep Nova close-especially due to his tragic past, and the ghosts that follow. He also wants to allow her to grow in her own way, and where better to do that than the very place he did that himself, Hogwarts. Nova is quickly sorted into Hufflepuff, starting later than most in her fourth year but she settles in well, clicking straight away with the likes of Harry Potter, Cedric Diggory and Magnolia Shore-her over enthusiastic quidditch obsessed dorm mate who's irredeemable in love with Ravenclaw's brightest and sharpest student by all means, Regina Lovegood.(Although Reg is too obsessed with ancient magic and a collection of worn diaries that belonged to her mother, to even notice.) As Nova navigates her way around magic, bubbling friendships and trying to keep her secrets hidden, someone else starts to catch her eye. A mysterious, slightly mischievous boy from Slytherin, with a sharp tongue and unforgiving stare. Mattheo Riddle tries to keep to himself, being the son of two of the most infamous wizards comes with a bit of a reputation. It doesn't matter to anyone else that he'd never even met his parents and was brought up alongside his cousin Draco Malfoy. In everyone's eyes, Mattheo is destined to become just like his father, everyone's eyes, but Nova's. She can see something in the boy that he can't even see himself. - So this fic while centering around the golden trio era-and snippets of the Slytherin boys with my own twist on them ofc-is just as much a Marauders fic too. ✨
