lunardreamed,
A very long time ago you requested a Harry Potter/"Supernatural" crossover. Here's a smidge of that, on the occasion of your birth.
A very long time ago you requested a Harry Potter/"Supernatural" crossover. Here's a smidge of that, on the occasion of your birth.
In early 1994 Remus Lupin received a visit from the headmaster of his alma mater, bearing grave and startling news.
“Your older sister’s widower has just passed away, my dear boy,” Albus Dumbledore informed him, his blue eyes missing their usual twinkle.
“I had a sister?” Remus asked, handing Albus a cup of tea.
“Yes, you did.” Albus sighed. “She was a lovely girl. Older than you by six years, she had such potential…” He sipped the tea, studying Remus. “Your parents chose to send her away, to your father’s brother in America. She was raised a Muggle, her powers bound.”
“What was her name?” Remus sank down into a chair. “Why didn’t I ever know?”
Albus’ smile was kind and sympathetic. “A Seer spoke a prophecy as your mother gave birth. When the Ministry heard of his words, they gave your parents a choice—send the child away or she would be destroyed. And so Maralyn Sceana Lupin was sent to America to become Mary Christina Nicholson. She was taken in by your uncle, a squib.”
“Uncle Sebastian,” Remus said. “I’ve heard of him. Father never spoke of him much.”
Albus nodded. “He was the shame of your family. Ran off to the States the first chance he got, and never looked back.” Albus set down the saucer. “Your sister had two children before she died, Remus. Their father, John, has just died, as well, and they have no other family but you.”
Remus stared at him. “Albus, surely you can’t mean…”
“I do mean.” Albus’ eyes were solemn. “You have to take them in, my dear boy.”
Remus continued staring at him. “I’m a werewolf, Albus. You really think the Ministry will let me keep two young children?”
Albus smiled, and something dark peered out of his eyes. “They will.”
Remus slumped down. “I don’t have a choice, do I?”
With a shake of his head, Albus said, “Not much of one, no.”

Date: 2007-12-16 03:59 pm (UTC)Sometimes, I get in the mood for HP fanfic(usually dark and about Draco/Harry, or powerful!independent!Harry getting out from under Dumbledore's thumb, 'cause I HATE that dude) and scour ff.net. They have loads of actual GOOD HP fic, which is shocking, compared to some of the SN offerings over there. But I've only read the books once.

Date: 2007-12-16 08:59 pm (UTC)I also wonder what years will you have them in. Canonically, Dean (born 1979) is one year older than Harry (born 1980) and Sam (born 1983) is three years younger. But fanfiction plays with these time things all the time.
