While I wasn't entirely happy with the way Dolores was punishing Harry, there was nothing I could do, I'd talked to everyone I could think of and they'd all been less than willing to help me.

Now here's where Sirius's malicious compliance came into effect, some adults at the school had been discrediting his ability to possibly parent Harry, they said he saw Harry as a replacement for his friend James, which wasn't the case from what I'd seen.

To combat this, Sirius had signed over any potential parental right to me in early November of 1995, as well as signing over ownership of 12 Grimmauld Place.

Using this to my advantage I switched my legal address to Grimmauld Place and petitioned to get custody of Harry, which his Aunt Petunia didn't even bother to fight.

By the end of November of that year I was Harry's legal guardian, his new legal residence being Grimmauld Place!

All of this happened extremely quickly, I hadn't even had time enough to tell Percy.... It'd also unfortunately slipped my mind that this decision might effect him.

Unfortunately that's where our luck ended, as I was still getting owls to our apartment.

When I got one addressed as:

'To the legal guardian of Harry J. Potter'

In early December, Percy had a few questions to say the least, seeings as he's the one who actually accepted the letters from the owls!

"Y/N, what in Merlin's name is this?" Percy asked, holding up the envelope

Looking up from my place on the floor and the stack of papers I was sorting through for work, I let out a frustrated groan upon reading the front of the envelope.

"Just give me the letter, I'll explain it in a minute." I replied

He handed me the letter, his eyebrows knitting together in confusion.

The letter was from Dolores, which was met by yet another frustrated groan as well as me thumping my head on the coffee table in front of me.

"What?" Percy asked, now more confused than he was before

"She wants to talk to me.... Please kill me! Leave everything to my dad, he can split it 50/50 with Sirius. I'm not sane enough to deal with her this week." I replied

"Who?"

"Dolores...."

"Why does Dolores want to meet with you? And why are you getting letters meant for Harry's Aunt?"

"Because she says Harry's 'misbehaving', and I'm not receiving letters for Harry's Aunt. I've been Harry's Guardian for the last 2 weeks."

"What? Why?" He still sounded confused but he was now clearly upset about the fact I hadn't told him.

"His Aunt and Uncle's house was abusive Percy, he needed somewhere safe to go. Sirius signed over his legal parental rights as his godfather to me last month, he also signed over ownership of his ancestral home. I then filed for custody of Harry, Petunia didn't fight it whatsoever. She said she was glad to be rid of him actually."

"Why didn't you say anything?"

"It was hectic Percy, everything happened so fast, telling you didn't even cross my mind at the time."

"You didn't think that this could possibly effect me?"

"How does me having custody of Harry effect you? We're not married Percy, my legal address at the moment is my ancestral home. He's not going to be living here, I don't think it's an issue."
