26. Quill

Laying on his stomach, Teddy Lupin crossed his legs up behind him in the air as he considered what to write next. Twirling the feathered end of Harry’s best quill around his sandy blond hair, Teddy was struck with inspiration. He inked up the quill before moving it in graceful arcs across the parchment… and the new carpet.

“Teddy!” came the gasp of Ginny Potter, pregnant with her first child. She watched the boy at first in horror, but then with a smile on her face as he ruined Harry’s quill and made atrocious scribbles on the page. Independent quillwork.

25. Sorting Hat

“Lupin, Theodore.”

Hearing an unusual quiet in the Great Hall, Teddy placed a foot on the dias and headed towards the sorting hat. His hair was a stark white today, except his eyebrows and eyelashes which were a regular brown colour. On the stool he sat… awaiting his fate. Then the brim opened.

It was all down to this. His future depended on the hat, and it was no time at all until it shouted…

“RAVENCLAW!”

Pulling the hat off, Teddy turned his hair the blue and bronze colour of his new house and headed over to sit with them.

77. Cheerful

“You’re lookin’ mighty cheerful today, Teddy,” Harry grinned at his fourteen year old godson as he came over for a visit. Teddy wore his heart on his sleeve and his emotions… in his hair. Right now said hair was bright blond and he had sparkling grin eyes, and of course there was the grin on his face that had nothing to do with being a Metamorphmagus.

“She… she…” Teddy stammered, sinking into an armchair.

“Ah,” Harry replied, holding off a groan. The symptoms were clear, from the demeanour of Teddy to the now visible lipstick print on his cheek. Girlfriend.

Felixir · 08-20-2009, 02:38 AM

54. Dare

“It was a dare,” Teddy mumbled sullenly. He was sitting in his godfather’s study, legs swinging back and forth as he faced the apparently angry man.

“Teddy, you go to a muggle school. I don’t care what Ron told you to do, you know you aren’t allowed to change appearance for when you go to school,” Harry groaned, exasperated. “Seven year olds just don’t suddenly have naturally pink hair.”

Pouting, Teddy nodded his head, hair returning to the black colour to match with Harry’s, the one his school friends knew. Harry sighed. Continuity with a young metamorphamus was hard work.

46. Dungeon

The dungeon. Cold, dark, dank… foreboding.

Until Teddy Lupin brightened up the day.

A lovely trick Teddy and his friends loved to play on he Slytherins was dressing Teddy in the snakes’ robes and changing his face to look like one of them. It had actually been Teddy that showed the soft side of Slytherin house, so to speak. Of course, after he published an unofficial school newspaper of letters from each Slytherin students to their family’s, the cuddly toys that were being slept with and more incriminating evidence, the young metamorhmagus was set the ‘reward’ of cleaning the dungeons.

Felixir · 08-20-2009, 04:34 AM

7. Care of Magical Creatures

Teddy excelled in Care of Magical Creatures. Sure, maybe it was because he could change his appearance to relate to the animal he was studying and working with, but all the same, the creatures appeared to love him. He handled them with a kind, calm physique. Tough, firm, yet gentle.

Until the day his metamorphmagus abilities betrayed him. The Professor had said nifflers LIKED shiny things, so Teddy turned his hair to a sleek silver colour.

And they all turned on him, nuzzling his head and scalp, going for the roots where it seemed shiniest.

Teddy Lupin. Concussion by nifflers.

Felixir · 08-20-2009, 04:51 AM

53. Chase

“LUUUUUUPIIIIIIN!”

A chuckle rippled throughout the corridors at Hogwarts as a baby-faced young boy with mousy hair sprinted down one of them. On his tail was a boy who’d obviously been the victim of having animal fur magically glued to his face. Teddy had been caught in the act; the chase was on.

“Now you know. Don‘t call me a cub,” the boy giggled, rounding a corner and bouncing off a certain Professor Sprout. “Oops,” he muttered, ducking out of the way as the werewolf looking boy rounded the corner after him and bowled over the Hufflepuff Head of House.

Felixir · 08-20-2009, 05:10 AM

66. Pace

Back and forth. Back and forth. The basic principles of pacing. That’s what Harry Potter was doing when his 15 year old godson wasn’t back from his date.

“Calm down, Harry,” Ginny murmured from the foot of the stairs as she headed up to check on the kids. “He’s sensible.”

“Yeah…” Harry mumbled, resuming his pacing.

At midnight exactly, the front door swung open. “It must be loooooove,” came the sing-song voice of turquoise-haired Teddy. “Whatcha doooooing?”

Having pretty much worn a hole in the carpet, Harry dropped into his armchair and breathed a sigh of relief. “Pacing.”

“Liiiiiies.”

“Bed.”

Felixir · 08-20-2009, 05:19 AM

15. Room

Twenty years old. The years had gone by fast… Teddy seemed to move even faster. After Albus’ first year at Hogwarts, the family had returned back home and James had gone straight up to his room, discovering Teddy and Victoire blatantly SNOGGING in front of him. However Bill Weasley’s daughter had managed to get to Teddy faster than the family had got home was not even a thing to be considered yet.

“Ewwwww! Get a rooooom!” James reeled, unable to look away.

“We have one,” Teddy replied, keeping a straight face. “You’re in it. Shoo.”

And shoo the boy did.

Felixir · 08-20-2009, 05:32 AM

32. Common Room

The Ravenclaw common room was made of epic fail.

Or at least, the entrance was. Teddy would have found a password so much easier to handle, but noooooo he had to use his BRAIN! Just because he was naturally good at most magic didn’t necessarily make him smart!

“How long is a piece of string?”

Couldn’t you just… magically lengthen it? Like he could magically change his appearance. Teddy suggested this.

And got locked out.

Until the seventh year‘s saviour found him.

“How long is a piece of string?”

“However long you cut it,” the first year replied.

Access: granted.

Felixir · 08-21-2009, 05:47 PM

35. Pureblood

“Sooooo… I’m a pureblood?” Teddy Lupin asked Harry, head tilted to one side. He was only ten, and Harry was having trouble explaining this.

“Well… no… But you aren’t muggle-born or half-blood.”

Teddy blinked.

“See, your father had at least one parent in the wizarding community, and your mother had one parent from a pureblood family. You come from wizarding heritage… like me.”

Teddy nodded in understanding. “Ohhhh, I get it… so I am a pureblood. Thanks Harry!” the boy quipped, bounding off and leaving Harry to face palm. Technically, ‘pureblood’ wasn’t accepted as a term nowadays, in any case.

Felixir · 08-26-2009, 12:37 PM

17. Cauldron

Teddy Lupin was once so small, he could hide in a cauldron and not be found. Which he had decidedly done. Harry hadn’t liked it, but Teddy had a good reason: they weren’t having ice cream for dinner.

Torture.

The young lad, seven years old, had curled up and hid inside the biiiiiiiig cauldron that Harry sometimes used for work and such things. Everyone had been calling his name and panicking, for an hour.

When he was found, Teddy had to go to bed even earlier than James.

But guess what? They had ice cream for dinner the next day.

Felixir · 08-26-2009, 12:49 PM

23. Telescope

“But Harryyyyyyyyy… I want the glass one,” Teddy whined, tugging on Harry’s sleeve. They were buying Teddy’s school supplies, just Teddy, Harry and Andromeda Tonks. Teddy turned to the old woman. “Please tell him, Grammahhhh! Please! I want it soooooo bad!”

Harry gave the old woman a look from behind the young metamorphmagus, a look which clearly said ‘no’.

“Teddy, you inherited your mother’s oh so graceful way of moving… you aren’t having the glass one,” Andromeda explained to a pouting Teddy.

“Did not,” he retorted, turning back to look at the glass telescope, accidentally knocking it to the floor.

Felixir · 09-05-2009, 07:36 PM

14. Hogwarts, A History

“… all in Hogwarts: A History,” Hermione was saying to Teddy, in the same way that Harry had assured the boy she had always spoken. Teddy was wary of Hermione, and usually chose to keep his distance, but when he wanted to hear things about the school, she was the one to go to. And Hermione’d gone on a spiel.

It was relatively easy to zone out; as long as he didn’t subconsciously keep changing his appearance, nobody realised he wasn‘t paying attention.

Just about catching the name of the book, Teddy made a mental note to look it up.

Felixir · 09-05-2009, 07:37 PM

3. Transfiguration

Being a metamorphmagus, Teddy pretty much excelled at Transfiguration. At first it was hard, like when they had to turn matchsticks into needles that first lesson. All Teddy usually had to do was think about something changing, and it happened. That day in Transfiguration, Teddy had started the day looking relatively normal.

And he looked at the matchstick. And he thought ‘silver and pointy!’

But nothing happened.

Until, there was a kind of strained laughter from nearby. Everyone else seemed suddenly fixated on his hair. Staring into a nearby mirror, Teddy facepalmed.

Can you guess what his hair looked like?

Felixir · 09-05-2009, 07:40 PM

87. Plaid

“I am NOT wearing THAT!” Teddy yelled indignantly, running away from his godfather and unwittingly trapping himself in the laundry room. “EEP!”

Slowing down, Harry allowed himself a smile as he found his godson frantically looking for an escape. “It’s part of the uniform, kiddo,” he said, by means of apology.

The young black-haired boy scowled back, folding his arms over his chest. “But I’m TEN! Nobody my age would be seen DEAD in those things!” he protested, pointing at the plaid shorts dangling from Harry’s hands.

“Exactly. You‘ll have the pleasure of walking around in them,” Harry teased.

“Evil.”

Felixir · 09-12-2009, 09:57 AM

24. House Elf

“Harry,” Teddy asked, approaching his godfather as the man assisted their house elf, Dobby the Second, with the tidying up.

“Hmmmm?” Harry asked his nine-year old godson. The boy kept changing his appearance, trying to find an appropriate identity. It was… unnerving.

“Why do you have a house elf?” the boy asked, smiling sweetly, though fire blazed in his eyes. Harry recognised that look. It had almost become his best friend’s trademark back when she was fourteen. Harry narrowed his eyes and made a mental note to have stern words with her.

“Hermione,” the man growled under his breath.

“Indeed.”

Felixir · 09-12-2009, 10:08 AM

84. Angry

Teddy was angry. Furious. Cantankerous.

“You can’t DO this!” he yelled at his grandmother, stomping his foot as she glanced calmly at him. “It’s NOT FAIR!”

Andromeda, knowing how these arguments usually went, kept her composure and stared down at Teddy. “All the owls I’ve had from school this year? They weren’t fair. Putting the burden of your behaviour on me? No. Until you learn to behave, I will be withdrawing privileges from you.”

“You CAN’T stop me from seeing Harry! He’s my GODFATHER!”

“And I am your guardian. Go to you room, please.”

And Teddy went, hair Weasley-red. Angry.

Felixir · 09-12-2009, 10:39 AM

18. Whomping Willow

Teddy hissed in pain as Madam Pomfrey applied the potion to heal the cuts over his body. The boy had attempted to get into the secret passage he knew was concealed beneath the Whomping Willow.

And had failed miserably.

“Let this be a lesson,” the woman said, though not exactly sternly. Everyone knew he was trying to recover something to do with his parents.

All he’d managed to find was himself in detention in the near future.

“Sure,” Teddy mumbled, glancing down and twiddling his thumbs. He should have known he was lucky that Harry was forthcoming with that information.

Felixir · 09-12-2009, 11:14 AM

43. Headmaster

“Hey Albus,” Teddy nodded, entering the Headmaster’s office and nodding to the portrait above the desk. He’d been on first name terms with the portrait of Dumbledore since his very first visit up here office in his very first week of his very first year at Hogwarts.

Well, he wasn’t exactly an angel.

“What is it this time, Teddy?” the old man asked, with false weariness. Even in painted form his blue eyes twinkled. Teddy wished Dumbledore was still the headmaster.

“Dungbomb in the staff loo,” the seventeen year old replied, grinning sheepishly. “Old Lady Pince dang near keeled over.”

Felixir · 09-12-2009, 11:58 AM

41. Thestrals

Hagrid nodded at his fifth year class. Around half of them could see the Thestrals ahead of them. Though this was a large number, things did happen every now and then and Hagrid assumed this was the whole ‘revenge of the death eaters’ thing that occured. He smiled when he saw Teddy with his hand not raised. Harry and Andromeda had done well keeping him sheltered.

In the back of the class, Teddy was nervously shuffling his wizarding snap cards, one wary eye on the horse things. He couldn’t reveal that he could see them… or that would ruin everything.

Felixir · 09-12-2009, 12:15 PM

56. Fight

“FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!”

The crowd chanted as one as Teddy and some Gryffindor wrestled each other around the courtyard. The Gryffindor had mentioned something about real heroes followed by a snide remark about Remus Lupin, unaware that the man’s only son was in hearing range. There soon followed an exhibition of muggle duelling.

“FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!”

Teddy had the surprise advantage, and although the Gryffindor had the brawn, Teddy realised he could win this fist-fight using his mind.

It was all going so well, a dodge her, a swift shove there.

Until…

Teddy fell to the ground, defeated, muttering dazedly.

Felixir · 09-12-2009, 12:32 PM

33. Classroom

The classroom was empty. That was good. Teddy needed for there to be nobody around to witness this. If anyone saw… his good reputation would be in shards. Teddy was imagining dirty looks, total exile and possibly being disowned from his family.

Not. Good.

Pushing a desk in front of the door for good measure after magically locking it, Teddy scanned the room and blocked the windows with a wave of his wand.

Standing in the middle of the classroom, Teddy braced himself and opened his mouth.

“IIIIIIII can shoowwwww you the worrrrrrrrrrrrld,” he ‘sang’, voice warbling dangerously; singing practice.

Felixir · 09-12-2009, 10:12 PM

89. Past

Not many kids had the history of Teddy Lupin. But Teddy didn’t live in the past. It was too full of prejudice. Being the son of a werewolf had caused some of the nasty kids to puts raw steaks in his school bag, those were usually the Slytherins. Gryffindors sometimes made comments about Remus and his attempt to abandon his wife and kid, though how that had ever slipped out was beyond Teddy. The boy was just walking and talking proof that you can’t escape your past. So he had to make a name for himself.

Had to BE himself.

Felixir · 09-12-2009, 10:23 PM

5. Astronomy

You can’t do Astronomy with a broken glass telescope. Reparo just will not do the trick. That fails, but it’s true.

It turned out that the broken telescope was a sign of things to come; Teddy was absolute FAIL in Astronomy. He’d line up the sights, plot out the stars and planets and whatnot, all the different constellations. Everything according to what the Professor told them. But he just couldn’t get it right.

“Professor! Professor!” he was heard shouting in alarm one night, gazing through his (unbreakable) telescope. “I think I discovered a new planet!”

“That’s the moon, Lupin.”

“… oh.”
