In July of 1976 a whole bunch of peculiar, equal parts amazing and horrendous, things had already come to pass. A few examples. Atticus Mulciber viciously attacked Mary MacDonald with an unforgivable curse, Sirius Black kissed both Marlene McKinnon and Remus Lupin and James Potter and Lily Evans decided to skive off school to go see David Bowie play in London.

The fist time she saw him Susan was five years old. She sat on the floor in her aunts office at the ministry painting when Arthur Weasley decided to pay a visit. Along side him came his twelve year old son, Charlie. He asked her what she painted while the adults talk and when Arthur left she gave Charlie her painting of a green dragon.

This story will include: decisions about the future, midnight quidditch games, pregnancy, letters, muggle tattoos, nostalgia, makeovers, loneliness, dance parties in class, slight narcissism, parental pressure, giggling in the AM, chocolate, picnics on the grounds, making stupide decisions, stargazing, pillow fights, and making even more stupid decisions. Since most teenagers do.

This story begins the 1:st of September 2015 approximately one year prior to James Sirius Potter's first journey to Hogwarts. It features all the students living in the grand castle at the time. It is a story about friendship, and heartbreak, and homework, and sheep, and pillow-fights, and all those tiny fragments of life. Yeah, that sounds about right. This is a story about life.
