Potter's Missing Moments

However, she was not in love with him. She died after being succuming to an illness she had gained walking in the damp winter fields of their hometown, wondering how she could tell her lover, Cadmus, that she no longer wished for his heart as he so yearned for her. She was untrusting in love, and didn’t believe that his feelings were genuine until she saw him humiliate Death in order to return her to him.

His son was his pride and joy, particularly after his second son died at birth and his next child was a daughter. Edward was a wonderful son, and Ignotus knew that, having encountered Death, he needed a way to protect him. Asking for the Cloak of Invisiblity gave him enough time, and more, to escape Death, return to his son, and in turn protect him from Death’s clutches. Edward, in turn, had only daughters. He intended to keep the cloak into old age, but his daughters Mary and Elizabeth were falling victim to illness and used it to lay the cloak over them one night they were sick and sheild them from the death they feared. As he slept at their bedside, Death found him, along with his father, who told him that his daughters would survive their sickness because Death would not find them beneath the cloak.

Before this time, Gryffindor had never had a successful Quidditch season but he revolutionised their training schedules so much so that he was named Captain in his fifth year, despite having never ridden a broomstick until his twelfth birthday.

Confused by the true meaning of family during his teenage years, he found his family in the company of dark wizards, and his acceptance by them gave him the sense of family that he searched for. He understood that Lily had wanted him to find people who would defend him, who would be proud of him, and who would accept him for exactly what he was. He never understood, not until she was gone, that what Lily meant was that she was his family. By this simple misunderstanding, he set forth motions that would ensure she could never be his, and that her son would end up with a similar struggle for family.

George told him that it was true, but he often thought that it was just a way to make his father look good. He had, after all, gone through school listening to rumour upon rumour about his family during the War, and sometimes he didn’t know what to believe, but somehow his father investing in a joke shop wasn’t all that believable…

He tried to, especially when he learned later that the Order of the Phoenix relied on it as a form of communication, but found that he wasn’t able to produce a Patronus until he first laid eyes on his grandson.

She had been a welcome addition to the family run business after her marriage to Lucius and particularly enjoyed working with the wine. She returned to the business after the War, where she continued to supply their usual stock plus more to ensure that her son had a reason to be proud of his name once again. She was pleased when Draco not only begun to help her with the Apothecary but came home one evening with the deeds to an empty store in Diagon Alley for them to trade out of.

After his death, when Remus found it on their fallen friends body, he returned it to the student who had given it to him, and held Tonks all night while she cried over it.

She famouly went to prison several times for deliberate use of magic, however this did not stall her. She eventually settled for her elder years in a Muggle village near the border of Wales and lived on a street filled with young children. She watched them grow and play with little more than an abandoned park which was filled with overgrown weeds and broken play equipment. She couldn’t bear that these children lived in a world without belief in magic and one night went into the park and made it perfect for them once again. The Ministry never discovered her actions and to her delight the next day, the streets were filled with children insisting that magic had fixed their park.
