Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and Ronald Weasley are, arguably, the most powerful students at Hogwarts, not only in terms of reputation, but also of sheer power. The Boy Who Lived, the cleverest witch of their age, and the youngest — and most determined — Weasley son have built themselves into an unshakable trio, respected heavily and slightly feared. When Y/n — smart, beautiful, clever, sharp — transfers to Hogwarts at the start of their sixth year, the three of them immediately gravitate towards her. She’s sorted into Gryffindor, and after meeting the Dark Trio, she seems to just… get it. She gets why Hermione has used her knowledge the way she has. She gets why Ron is so protective. She gets why Harry is, as some see him now, turning “dark”. She gets it, and she doesn’t seem to mind. She’s kind, and thoughtful, and empathetic — which is why it makes absolutely no sense that she isn’t scared of them. When her own immense power is revealed, the Dark Trio learns why.
