Forget what you know about the Marauders Era. Forget Voldemort and the Death Eaters - they don't exist. Forget the war - it's not taking place. Forget the lost lives - because they can be saved. Forget the future - it can be changed. The year is 1977 and the world seems to be at peace. The Marauders are in their sixth year of Hogwarts, but there is no Order of the Phoenix or Death Eaters to recruit them. But the seeming peace is just the calm before the storm - and a certain shade of darkness awaits. Everybody wants to change the world - and some will do whatever it takes.

Ibis Bennett | PB: Lauren Cohen

A free afternoon, finally. After a week of constant running around and shouting, having time to do what she wanted felt good. Really good.

That didn’t mean Ibis didn’t like her work. On the contrary, she loved it more than anything in the world. But it seemed she was only human, and once in a while she had to stop, take a deep breath, and rest. Just do nothing for a whole afternoon. Spend the day away from everyone and everything, where no one expected her to do anything important.

Which wasn’t exactly what she was doing, but it was close enough. She had realized her pile of books to read was getting dangerously small, and had decided to go out and resupply her stock. And what better way to do that than a trip to the Diagon Alley, giving her the opportunity for a walk in the cold weather she so liked.

Nathaniel Wilkes | PB: Will Higginson

Nathaniel was going through a young-life crisis. His world was upside down, inside out, and all those amazing analogies. Well, actually, it had been so for quite some while, he had just been denying it as long as he could. And it seemed he could no more.

Nathaniel had come to realize he no longer thought as he should. Or how people taught him he should, rather. He had grown up thinking that anyone who wasn’t a pureblood (and sometimes even those who were), shouldn’t be a wizard. They had no rights, and they shouldn’t be able to get the same things as the “worthy ones”. And now…

In our family portrait we look pretty happy
We look pretty normal, let’s go back to that
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
Let’s play pretend, act like it goes naturally

Caius Bell | PB: Robert Downey Jr.

Looking upwards to the brunette who was roughly 15 years younger than him, he did his damnedest to avoid letting his eyes linger on her curves. She was the opposition, after all.

“And good morning to you too, Ibis,” he responded cheerfully, folding the paper closed and standing up to shake her hand. “I must say, I was expecting to see Tallis this morning, so this is a rather pleasant surprise.” It was half true, it was a surprise, although the only pleasant thing about it was her dress. The woman herself was a little… he couldn’t find quite the right word to describe it. Strong willed wasn’t it, and he personally liked women with enough intelligence to hold at least a semi-intellectual conversation with. In truth, he probably would have liked Ibis if they didn’t have such differing views. Instead, he was cursed with a bloody smart adversary with breasts. Great.

Wanted: Magical and Liberal Party 

Tallis —- Hunt

Pureblood | 51 | Senate Leader | Magical and Liberal Party

As a Senate Leader he’s responsible for representing the interests of the party when there are meetings in the Ministry to debate bills. He schedules meetings, protects the interests of the party members, and works with committee leaders.

Although he’s always saying he’s too old or that he’d rather spend the whole week at home, he’s dedicated to his job. He thinks most of those young ones are only fighting for attention, so they need someone to keep them in their place. But he still worries he’s getting to tired to deal with everything.

He has a sense of honor and loyalty, and feels like he can’t abandon Ibis and Patricia. He’s very protective of them, especially of the younger one. He considers them his apprentices because of the age difference, so he tries to keep them out of trouble while teaching them everything he can so they can fly by themselves.

Tallis is an intellectual by nature, and his whole life was dedicated to the party. Because of that he’s now starting to think he might have missed some things along the ride, like having a family and kids. It’s never too late, though!

The suggested play-by is Gary Oldman, but feel free to change it! If you need anything else, just contact me. For more information check here.

Patricia —- Reynolds

Pureblood | 26 | House Leader | Magical and Liberal Party

Her duties as the House Leader are almost the same as the senate leader, but focused on the party. She also acts as the spokesperson.

She believes that fighting for what’s right will bring change to the world, and is not afraid to give voice to her opinions. Although she’s still young, it was precisely because of that that she got invited to be the house leader, so she could be the new face to gather the attention from the younger supporters.

Patricia admires Ibis for what she has accomplished in a not so welcoming world, but she can’t help but feel a little jealous. Ibis gets most of the attention and acknowledgments, and she feels that’s a little unfair. But she tries to ignore that for the sake of the party and herself.

She’s ambitious and with fresh and new ideas. Patricia is still getting used to the political world, which can be quite cold and ruthless, and although sometimes she lets herself be personally hurt by what people say, she’s has potential. She just needs to learn how to put it to a good use.

The suggested play-by is Anna Kendrick, but feel free to change it! If you need anything else, just contact me. For more information check here.

once you’ve crossed it you can never go back 

He made me feel something, and that’s unforgivable. I’m not allowed to feel, especially not when there’s the possibility of getting hurt. I carefully, quietly slide off the desk, dressing as quickly as I can. Perhaps I can just leave, and we’ll never have to speak of this again. He wakes as I’m dressing, though, blinking at me as though he can’t understand why I’m not still in his arms. I want to be, but … I can’t be that girl. I can’t love him, not the way he deserves, and so it’s better to give him nothing. “Morning, Carrie.”

“Go back to sleep.” I tell him, searching for my last article of clothing. I’ve got everything else, but this seems to be stubbornly eluding me. He sits up slightly. “Where are you going?”

“Look, sweetie, I’ve had fun with you, ” I start, completely gearing up to shatter that precious innocence. “But you can’t have fooled yourself into thinking it was about anything more than this. I don’t love you. I can’t love you. And … well, in the end, it really wasn’t quite … up to par.” I’m lying through my teeth, but he probably doesn’t know that. He’ll hate me, and that will probably be best. It wasn’t unsatisfying. I was shocked at how well he’d managed to figure out my reactions. Before an hour was up, he’d figured out how to read me like a textbook.

Things can never be the same again. I knew that sleeping with him would change everything, but I did it anyway. Now he looks devastated and it’s my fault.

The Covert Specialist: Lover of details. He takes notice of things most wouldn’t, like the exact shade of red of a curtain,
or the wear on the knees of a gentleman’s trousers.
The Hit Man: Silence is his great companion. Why use words when actions speak infinitely louder?
Violence is ugly, but so is the world; a necessary sin.
The Messenger: Ignorance may keep him alive—if it doesn’t kill him first.
The Mediator: He’s her shield, not her sword but sometimes the best offense is defense.
The Fake Heir: If he is to tell the truth, he no longer remembers who he once was.
The Spy: Scruples are meaningless. Honor is for the dead. Revenge is his.
The Informant: He never wanted any part of it but he can’t turn his back on his own blood.
The Gossip: Appearances can be deceiving and deadly. She’s as cruel as the world. It’s easy when you have nothing to lose.

WANTED: SEPTIMUS WARD 

This is Septimus Ward, the 42 year old House Leader for the Mighty Republic of Magic Party. He, alongside Caius Bell and Frederick Taylor, make up the leadership trio of the more right-winged of the two political parties.

Just a few facts about him:

• Septimus is a pacifist, believing that Muggles should be cared for to stop them from creating any more world wars and destroying the planet.
• He has many ideas for how he wants the world to look once they’re in power, some of them could be considered slightly outlandish. He regards them as a stroke of brilliance.
• Even though he is just as determined as his fellow leaders to be at the top, his family is the most important thing to him and ranks higher than the party in his mind.
• Not only does he look after the internal affairs of the party, but he also spends a good deal of his time trying to prevent Caius and Frederick from being at each others throats while the men are in private.
• If there was ever a person you needed in a crisis, Septimus is that man. His softly spoken words and ability to stay cool under pressure has granted him the unofficial role of PR representative for the party, dealing with any crises they may have before they blow out of proportion.
• Neither of the other two men consider Septimus a threat to their plans for total control, both regarding him as a neutral party, even possibly an ally. However, he knows enough about both Caius and Frederick to give them trouble should he ever feel inclined to do so.

This list is by no means extensive so feel free to add as much extra as you like. I have put his PB as Ioan Gruffudd as I feel the face fits the character but you may change it if you want.

To get a better idea of his world and the people that inhabit it, Caius’ app can be found here and Frederick’s app can be found here.

Thank you for taking the time to read this wanted ad, and we look forward to seeing Septimus in action.

“SLYTHERIN”

As a loud cheer erupted from the green covered table, Severus looked over towards Lily and his heart sank.
