Yes, some wands have the hair of a Veela in them. Would be cool if Shion had one, wouldn't it?

Hey, Inukashi as a descendant of a werewolf would be really cool. And it would make sense considering their love for dogs :) Or maybe they even are a werewolf? That would make them even more alike the Marauders xD

Ah, Patronus are really difficult >.< But yeah, I'd probably say Shion would have a mouse or rat but I'm not so sure if Nezumi would have one too? Inukashi would definitely have a dog though - they're too much like one to have a different Patronus. Safu though ... I don't really now.

And after reading the welcome letter of Hufflepuff I'm all the more sure about Shion being one but I'd be fine with Gryffindor too. It's probably a close call and would end with the Sorting Hat asking him where he would rather be ^^

@lawlya: haha, yeah, Shion's wand was what I was going there for, caught me!

Hmm, Inukashi as a werewolf... well, I guess that would nicely parallel how people give Inu strange looks in canon (so you'd substitute being raised by dogs and treating dogs as family by being a werewolf).

I just got thinking, what if Nezumi's patronus became a snake? And everyone would assume it's because he's a Slytherin, but instead it's because of Shion's scars (which he probably got by some magic accident if he wasn't born with them in this AU), but he's so not gonna talk about that. It's totally because of Slytherin, yup. (Because a patronus is supposed to protect you and is born from happy memories, so... yeah. I am very subtle. And of course the obvious Bible reference, what with Eve and all.)

Safu, hmm... something in me said 'horse', but I have no idea where that came from. Maybe a bird? Shion did compare her to a bird in flight in the end, so that could make sense. (She could definitely have an owl though if nothing else. I only just remembered they're allowed pets in Hogwarts XD)

@listenforthelove
OH god, I totally love your idea that Nezumi's patronus is a snake... and that it's of course just because of slytherin. Hehe! That's a really cool idea. ^^
And Shion's scars... totally an accident.

Ah, but do you know what's too bad? When Nezumi and SHion are in different houses, they can't share a bed together. I bet they always sneak out at night and fall alseep somewhere together. I could imagine that the invisibility cloak belongs to Shion. Maybe something he got from his dad. (I mean Shion's father made a cradle for him in Beyond. Maybe he left the cloak in the AU instead.)

Hm...Safu's feelings for Shion are also pretty strong. Maybe her patronus is a mouse and Shion's is a rat. o.o Ah... but well, most animagi may take the same form of their patronus... So Nezumi's should be a rat, since he's a rat then. But I like the snake idea better. >,<
It's fitting for Inukashi, though.
Ah, it would also be cool when Safu's patronus is something special, like a phoenix.

Wohoo, parallel thoughts ;)

And yes, a snake would be perfect. Not only because of Shion's scar but also because snakes "devour" mice so ...

Ah, yes. The pet thing. Would be too bad with Shion owning a cat and Nezumi a couple of mice, wouldn't it xD

Okay, first off, I love the Nezumi-veela thing. Yes pls.
I feel like Safu's pet would be an owl. Or maybe a raven.
And werewolf Inukashi is good. Let's do it.

As for the more complicated issue of patronuses. If Safu, Shion, and Nezumi all had mouse patronuses (Shion's changed to be like Nezumi's, Safu's changed to be like Shion's) it would be like the mouse trio XD But I don't actually know that Nezumi would have a mouse patronus to begin with...
IDK if you guys know this, but after [HP spoilers!!] Fred died, George was never able to cast another patronus. So what if Nezumi is never able to cast a patronus until after he meets Shion? So if his patronus was supposed to be another animal before, we'll never know that it wasn't a snake?
I feel like initially Shion's patronus would have been something else, and IDK what or if it would change to match Nezumi's probably
Inukashi's would be a dog of course, but what kind of dog?? A mutt??
As for Safu, what if hers is a bee O.o

Just so everyone knows, I made a tumblr post about this thread, so we may be joined  by other people. IDK. :3

@Vox: oh, ravens are great!! They're super loyal to their owners, right? That'd be nice for Safu. (Oh right, Youmin has crows... well sucks to be you Youmin you can just go away then.)

Omigosh though, a bee for Safu XD Or like a swarm of bees. Well, tbh if I were a Dementor I'd go running for the hills for that. Good choice I'd say.

But I'm here for Nezumi not being able to cast a (good) patronus until after meeting Shion, gosh. (Or after getting close to him, depending on when they meet in this AU. Like if they're still 16, that would put then in their sixth year, which old good enough to learn how to cast a patronus. Harry was a special case in his third year, but by his fifth it seemed most of the DA seemed to do just fine to summon one after a while.)

Hm, a super loyal dog breed for Inukashi, like a labrador or something? Or maybe something tiny and unassuming, like a pug or something, pff.

Thanks for the post to the RC blog! Let's hope more people will join us~

heya! I'm from tumblr, I was summoned by the magic words 'Hogwarts AU'.

I can see Yomin as a DADA teacher?

@peridotRapture welcome! And yeah, I can totally see that! I bet he'd have a heck of a time keeping his class under control and he'd get all riled up over it, which would only make the students act worse. Not every day, just when everyone's restless.

I don't know, when I read Yomin as the DADA teacher I just imagined the Major as headmaster and Labcoat as the potions teacher xD

@peridotRapture Welcome here!! Ohh, that's a very good one~ yeah, he'd probably get riled up as @Vox said, haha.

@lawlya: omigosh though, the Mayor as headmaster, help. XD I was first trying to think of something else for Labcoat, but Potions teacher sounds good if we keep him in a Hogwarts setting.
(I think I initially would have picked the Mayor as Minister of Magic and Labcoat as whatever equivalent for Voldemort, since he thinks he knows eeeeverything there is to know and the Mayor is ultimately more like a puppet to his scheming. But then again, with that plan I ended up with Rashi as Umbridge, and now I'm still picturing Rashi covered in pink and kittens and I. H-help.)

Would Rikiga be a teacher, by the way? Because I can't help but think he got expelled but is still on the premises somewhere, actually pretty good at his job when he's sober, whatever he teaches. History of Magic?

@listenforthelove: Your setting is good too. And makes perfectly sense. AND RASHI IN PINK OH MY GOD!
Then, if we go with "Hogwarts is the good side", how about Rikiga as headmaster x'D He would adore Shion of course and Nezumi would get detentions for nearly everything he does. But the way you describe Rikiga here ... is pretty much Hagrid. Minus the alcohol of course. But he was expelled and then became a teacher ^^"

I say Rikiga as the potions teacher. Always drinking something weird out of his flask.

@Weisel: headcanon accepted XD

@lawlya: ah yeah, I was thinking the opposite of Hagrid (expelled as a teacher for Rikiga, not as a student as in Hagrid's case). But yes yes yes on shamelessly giving Shion all the points and putting Nezumi in endless detention (and Inukashi too I bet). That would definitely be a thing.
Can someone be both headmaster and teacher? I don't know many adults in No. 6 I'd comfortably put in the headmaster position to be honest, help. XD Well, maybe Rou.

I think it would work out. I had class with my headmaster xD

And yes, I caught up to that but the similarity was too much for me to not mention it ^^"
Though Inukashi would just easily get detentions when they insult Rikiga again (which is like, nearly always except when Shion's with them xD).

Yeah, Rou as headmaster sounds good. And he could teach McGonagalls class. Since he seems to like giving people names after animals.
