Lyra's Introduction:
"like the clarion morning bells greeting the friendly townsfolk" - @creampuffcloudsdreaming
The new 5th year at Hogwarts, sorted into Gryffindor
Muggleborn and therefore pretty overwhelmed by the turn her life has taken
Her father Gottfried Prag was from the German Empire and came to England in 1873 to work at the embassy. He met Dorabelle Finch, who was from a well respected, rich family. They fell in love and married against her fathers wishes, which left them in a precarious financial situation
After the birth of their second child Claire (1884), said child and Gottfried get smallpox in early 1888, of which Gottfried dies eventually. Claire survives, but is left with a disabled leg.
Lyra is at school at the time and gets no chance to say goodbye to her father. This led to her not really reckoning with his death. These events however help her relate to Natty later, as she herself feels guilty over not being there when her father died and not grieving properly.
Lyra was born 4th of October 1875, making her only 14 when being accepted into Hogwarts, as in 1890, the rule is that everyone who reaches the age of 11 until December 31st of a year will start school that year. It's Professor Weasley who advocates for a change of that rule to make it that they have to be 11 before they start school, so next time there is a student like Lyra, there will be more of a chance they won't have to start school in their OWL year
Fig shows up at Lyra's school in early August 1890 to give her her acceptance letter. He needs to proof he's actually telling the truth by making her belongings dance across the table. She instantly likes him as he makes her feel truly seen for the first time.
Lyra is an outsider at her old school, with the other girls not exactly being mean, but also not nice. The popular girls make an effort to isolate her from others. Everyone being so welcoming at Hogwarts almost makes her cry.
Lyra is usually very quiet, loves reading and all sorts of animals. Attention of crowds makes her uncomfortable, but she likes being asked for input and will happily talk about her favorite books or the pretty bird she saw for hours.
At Hogwarts:
Wand: Alder, 10¾", phoenix feather core
Favorite subjects: DADA, Beasts, Potions
Least favorite subject: Astronomy (It's not that she hates it, but it's the least fun)
Academic pursues:
Lyra does pretty well in classes, but doesn't often attract attention, so she neither wins nor loses many house points. (Especially since she manages to hide her spare time activities of fighting poachers and sneaking into forbidden places pretty well.)
As for her OWLs, well, take a look for yourselves:
Future Career:
Lyra will be an Auror one day. She wants to keep protecting the people of the Wizarding World, not only by fighting dark wizards (and poachers), but also by trying to help those who turn to the Dark Arts in desperation and fear. She feels if she is the one deciding who to arrest, she can figure these things out and perhaps make a different call, like she did for Sebastian.
Best friends:
Natsai Onai
Easy one. Natty is the first to be kind to her at school and also the first person Lyra tells about her Ancient Magic after their eventful trip to Hogsmeade. As they are both Gryffindors and have nearly every class together, they quickly become inseperable. They're both new and they share a quiet nature and a strong sense of justice. They also bond quite a bit over the loss of their fathers and the guilt they both feel on this matter. Over the course of the year, their bond grows ever stronger and soon becomes unbreakable.
Sebastian Sallow
Lyra is sold on this friendship the moment he doesn't berate her for besting him in a duell, but doesn't quite know how to handle him, as she never had much contact with boys her age. Luckily, Sebastian is the kind of person to persist. After the events of the Restricted Section, she is hopelessly infatuated. He is the second person to learn about her abilities after he's shown her the Undercroft. Lyra sees him spiralling after they found Slytherin's spellbook and tries her best to get him to stop searching into Dark Arts without making him feel like he's alone in his fight for Anne. After the unfortunate outcome, she is there for him as much as she can, just as he is there for her after the fight against Ranrok. They understand each other perfectly and often without words after all they've been through together.
Poppy Sweeting
Lyra, who loves animals so much and who is delighted to find out magical beasts exist, of course takes an instant liking to the girl that introduces her to a hippogriff. She also sees herself in Poppy, who is a bit of an outsider at Hogwarts, just like Lyra used to be at her old school. Poppy learns about Ranrok soon, but doesn't ask many questions. At the end of the schoolyear, Lyra tells her the whole truth about what was going on.
Amit Thakkar
No matter what anyone says, Lyra loves this blubbering mess of a Ravenclaw to pieces. He is so smart and knows so much, but is also so nervous and erratic all the time that she can't help but like him. When they go find the first astronomy table and they see the lyra, Amit says it might be a sign. He is her go-to source whenever she needs to know anything specific or obscure and more often than not he can help her out or point her to the right book. Amit on the other hand loves hearing about the muggle world and their inventions from her. He learns about Ranrok in the mine and also gets told the whole story at the end of the year. She feels she owes him that. In their sixth year, Lyra takes him to all the astronomy tables so he can do his research safely.
Ominis Gaunt
After a bad start, these two bond after the whole scriptorium thing as they both become more and more worried about Sebastian and try to work together in bringing him back to reason. Lyra, knowing nothing about the hatred of pureblood families against muggleborns and how the use of dark magic is tied to this until he and Sebastian explain it to her, doesn't have the same Gaunt bias that most other students have and is honestly curious about the old traditions. She is amazed by his ability to speak parseltongue and his general competence, as someone being blind in the society she's grown up in wouldn't be deemed capable of going to school with non blind people. Ominis likes that she is not afraid or resentful of him for being a Gaunt and that he can speak his mind freely around her. They love to bicker every now and then, especially in History of Magic class. He is the last person to learn about her Ancient Magic, because Lyra feels like he has enough to worry about already. He is told at the same time as Poppy and Amit and nearly freaks out that she was carrying so much and still helped with Sebastian. And Harlow? And the poachers? Seriously, when and how does she rest?
What do they make of it?
Lyra in her sixth year decides to hide Isidoras Magic again, with new trials and some more memories. So she chooses new keepers: Natty, Poppy, Amit and Ominis. Sebastian gets why he wasn't chosen to protect a source of immense power, but is still a little hurt. They'll figure it out somehow.

Lukai stared at the spot she’d occupied seconds ago, then up at the staircase she’d left from, a million questions running rampant in his head.
“Wait!” His long strides caught up with Wyanne quickly, and he caught the end of her robe before she could run any further down the stairs. “Don’t run,” he pulled her to a stop, “not today. Please.”
She turned around and faced him directly, her dull eyes almost cloudy in the sunlight. “What?”
“You’re being too quiet,” he pointed out immediately, “and what’s with the sarcasm?”
“I’m always sarcastic.” “But you say it in…in a joking way? Now you’re being all sarcastic and negative about it.” Wyanne shrugged. “Who cares?” “I do!” he shouted, his voice echoing in the tower, furious at her whatever made her act like this, “I do, okay?!”
She just frowned at his answer, like she heard the most insane and stupid theory anyone’s ever come up with since “the Earth is flat”.
“I care,” he said more quietly, “I care, and I’m worried.” “Why?” “Because you’re my friend!” A small smile lifted the corner of her lip, but it looked like one of mockery instead of from genuine happiness.
“Yeah,” she turned away from him and started down the stairs again, “save us both the trouble and stop lying, hm?”
Lukai was completely taken aback by that. “Wait, what?“ He ran down the stairs after her — “Wyanne!”
…but she was gone.
“Myrna!” Lukai found his sister heading towards the Room of Requirement just as he was gonna go in. “Myrna! Did you see Wyanne just now?”
“Winnie? No. I told you to stop turning her into a pufferfish!” Lukai shook his head quickly. “No, no it’s not that. She looked really off just now, but I was sketching and didn't notice until she was gone and I thought, ‘she’s being too quiet.’ So I followed her up to the Astronomy Room and found her, but she just sounded really off.”
“Off? What do you mean off?” “…She’s acting her age.” “What?” Now Myrna has realised how dire the situation seems. “Uh, where did you last see her?” He proceeded to tell her what had happened. “She sounded like she was someone else.”
Myrna was already casting a patronus. “Tell Vincent and Castiel that Wyanne is missing, and tell them to relay the message to Emcy and Teddy. Everyone meet up at the Room of Requirement.” She waved the Tortoiseshell cat away and told Lukai to do the same with his Deer patronus.
10 minutes later, almost everyone had gathered at the Room. “Where’s Teddy?” Castiel asked when he did a head count.
“I dunno,” Emcy took a swig out of their water before continuing, “I just checked every room in here. No sign.”
“Who sent the message to Teddy?” “I did,” Vincent said, “he definitely got it.”
“Unless he got kidnapped or got into trouble, he should already be here,” Lyra was panting for breath, “I just got here from the other end of the highlands.”
“Okay, maybe we’ll find him while looking for Wyanne,” River said nervously, “what are we thinking?”
“I propose we split into groups of two,” Carina suggested as she grabbed a map of the castle, “without Reika and Teddy, we’ve got 10 people here. Eight stories, the dungeons, plus the towers, we have 13 floors to cover.”
“We can do groups of two,” Ray piped up, “I can ask Andrew and Zach to help. Maybe Imelda too, but that depends on Andrew.”
A translucent, mist-like horse suddenly flew in, diving straight for Castiel. It whispered something in his ear before disappearing.
“Okay, Tony and Leander can help. They’re already in the Dungeons so they’re covering that. They said they’ll also go to the tenth floor…something about turning in homework.”
“Perfect.” Mylene nudged Lyra, “wanna team?” Lyra gave a look and smiled at her. “Of course. We can cover the sixth and seventh floors?” “Why sixth and seventh?” “I’ve got a good feeling about it,” Lyra shrugged.
“So sixth, seventh, tenth, and the dungeons,” Carina crossed those two options out before looking up at Emcy. “We could cover the second and third floors?” Emcy nodded at her.
“Vincent and I will take the fourth and fifth floors.” “Andrew and Zach are outside so they’ll take that area and the ground floor!” “Myrna and I will take the eighth and ninth.”
All heads turned toward Ray and River. “…We cover the last three?” River nodded in agreement, and thus every team had their designated areas.
“Remember,” Lyra yelled as everyone started leaving, “patronus as communication!”
“I’m worried about them,” Carina whispered to Emcy while the two queued for the floo, “from the sounds of it, Wyanne was feeling really down.”
“She’s…complicated at times,” Emcy sighed, “she’s usually very hyped up until one day she doesn’t have enough of that energy. Then she starts spiralling and would prefer to do it alone.”
“Alone? But she has an Obscurus! That’s highly dangerous!” “Exactly. But she doesn’t want to feel like a burden. Something about being able to handle her own problems,” Emcy pinched the bridge of their nose and wished this was all just a nightmare, “and she hides away so no one can find her. Usually she comes out by herself in a few days, but I don’t know about Teddy.”
“Do you think they’re keeping each other company?”
“I believe it’s highly likely they’re not,” Emcy answered solemnly, “again, I’m not sure about Teddy, but Wyanne prefers to be alone even though she hates being alone. There’s also the possibility she’s not in the castle at all.”
Carina’s heart skipped a beat. “Not inside the castle? Isn’t that dangerous?”
“Knowing Wyanne, she can handle herself in the wild,” Emcy grabbed a handful of floo powder. “Let’s hope it doesn’t come to that.”

Emma is unwell and going to be thinking about this piece for literal weeks. She also has to head to work but hasn’t been able to stop looking back at this.
as promised, here is a proper post teehee :3c this comm was once more done by lohvunn who is, as i've said before, lovely to work with! please be sure to support legitimate artists in this time of ai garbage. this doesn't just mean commissioning; liking, reblogging, commenting, following across platforms - all of these forms of exposure and feedback are incredibly important. of course im not saying that you have to reblog this specific piece, but simply that there are more ways to support artists besides just commissioning them, which i know is not always an option.
anyways. look at them your honor. they're obsessed

I'm willing to bet that everyone who's ever tried animating started with eyes. It's the simplest thing to animate, lol
Of course, this isn't my first attempt at animation — I've already posted the first one in this post. But this is the first one in my current drawing and coloring style
There are a lot of problems, difficulties, and nuances I had to wrestle with during the process — because Procreate is really bad as an animation tool. It is what it is. It's not without flaws — yes, the hair is a mess. But still, I like this cute face
I spent about 4 hours on this (would've been less if I hadn't kept making stupid mistakes)
i really want to post a comm bc it’s bringing me massive amounts of Joy but i’d be posting from my phone and it will likely decimate the quality….. ehh fuck it we ball i’ll post it under the cut and then make an actual good dedicated post with the Qualitea version once im done my morning reports at work lol. behold them
Did you really think you would be enough this time?
Now who said that kids who grew up normally wouldn’t have trauma? Even Teddy cannot escape my clutches.
It’s not losing a childhood best friend who died (Wyanne) or suffering from depression (Emcy) but, what do you know, BDD (Body dysmorphia) and atelophobia (fear of being imperfect).
I mean, what did you expect? I did say he transferred to Hogwarts from Beaxbatons.
His BDD is especially severe because of his, let’s say, unconventional attractiveness? On some days, his mole placements look ugly, his hair doesn’t look good enough so he spends hours trying to better it, one of his eyes looks too small, why does his eyelash look uneven, his nails are too short, too long, a little crooked, his skin doesn’t seem tan enough, too many freckles on his arms, when did he get this scar, is he getting fatter???

thank you @lyra-prag for finally giving me the motivation to do this lol
Did I really have to extend it all the way up to Emcy's great grandparents? No. But of course I did.
Emcy sometimes wonders if their Ancient Magic could be related to their "pure" ancestory. Never went down that rabbit hole because they could care less about it.
As you can see, Emcy isn't directly related to the Gaunts. Even if they were directlt related, that's probably too far away to be seen.
Isabelle (Emcy's mother) was disowned for, surprise surprise, not wanting to marry the Gaunt her parents set her up with. The Gaunt in question is Elton (Ophelia's husband)'s father.
The Gaunts (or any of the extreme pureblood families) didn't have many alive by the late 1800s, in my mind, so it really isn't that surprising. I mean, how hard can it be to wipe out every Gaunt by 1925 when there are only a handful left?
That said, Ophelia was murdered in 1924 with her husband.
Oh, and Elton is one of the Gauntest Gaunts. The "I hate muggles" kinda person. He married Ophelia because she introduces herself as a Carrow, so he thought she was also pureblood. His parents weren't around by the time he wanted to marry her. Cause like. Hereditary diseases from inbred.
Sadly, despite Emcy being Emcy and their parents being them, Ophelia turned out to be very against her family. She thought being a half-blood was disgusting and resented her mother for running away in the first place. She and Emcy had happy memories when she was young, but the 15 year age gap between the two siblings made it difficult for them to bond after Ophelia turned 7, when Emcy was 22 and started travelling. So Ophelia hardly had any memory of her brother by the time she'd gone to Hogwarts, and because she kept calling herself a Carrow, she got mixed with the purebloods. If someone asked why she never showed up to balls or pureblood celebrations, Ophelia would say it was because she had been in America until she moved here to attend Hogwarts. She was lucky enough to never be questioned, never meet a real Carrow around her age, and then she met Elton and the rest was history...
When u have reoccurring dreams about a guy that you’ve only hung out with a few times (and every time it was with a group)
This is the 5th time Elijah’s had this dream.
Yes it’s starting to irritate him. No he’s not gonna do a damn thing about it, he doesn’t have the balls (and also it’s Sunan fudgin’ Saelee, everyone and their mothers have the hots for that man).
He can flirt and tease with no issue, but once it comes to actual romantic feelings he combusts (but somehow hides it well).
He’s just gonna wait till the feelings fade (if they fade)
And btw here are the links to the two posters on his wall bc the art is not mine for either of them
