warning(s): none that i could find
summary: The time for Asterope Malfoy to be sorted arrives and it doesn’t go like anyone expected. Ending up in Hufflepuff is not what a Malfoy should do but Asterope had never been very Malfoy-like. Perhaps it was time for her to make her own identity.
or in which aurelia black is born …
small preview:
They come to a stop, the Sorting is about to begin. Aurelia doesn’t want to disappoint her parents. Not again. In front of her, Neville is dealing with the same fear. He wants to be in Gryffindor but he thinks it might be easier and better if he’s sorted into Hufflepuff.
Without thinking, Neville grabs Aurelia’s hand. Although, he’s wary of her because of the things Lyra had told him about her, he can’t help but find comfort in her. There’s something about her that’s oddly familiar, he can’t put his finger on it but he feels as though they’re meant to be friends. When Aurelia squeezes his hand, he realises what he has done and quickly pulls his hand away.
He goes to apologise but he falls silent as the Sorting Hat starts singing its’ song. The whole hall bursts into applause when the Sorting Hat finishes singing. It bows to each of the four tables and becomes still again.
“I’m sorry that I keep grabbing your hand.” Neville apologises.
