Diana Potter, though a year younger, had the best bond with her brother James. They where best friends. And I'm saying 'where' because the oldest of the two died at only 21.
She was so young, but already dealing with more grief then a person can ha...

Diana chuckled into her hand when she heard McGonagall yelling at Peeves. The great hall was slowly filling up with students and Diana was waiting impatiently.
She hadn't eaten yet and she had to wait trough the sorting and the explanation of the triwizard tournament.
When the first-years came in, she noticed Colin Creevy trying to get her attention. He was waving and pointing. Diana noticed a first year with a huge coat who was looking around amazed.
She looked back at Colin who was mouthing "that's my brother." At her and Diana just smiled, nodded and stuck up her thumb.
She chuckled a bit to herself and her eyes roamed the hall. She had seen Luna and Neville, who she hadn't seen most of the summer.
She saw Harry who looked quite annoyed, probably hungry and wanting something to eat. He smiled when they made eye contact though.
She also saw Fred and George, they where not looking at the sorting at all, they seemed to be annoying Pippa who had rolled her eyes about three times in one minute.
To her surprise, they got food the moment the sorting was over, she had supposed Dumbledore would explain the tournament. "Whatever." She just mumbled to herself.
Another surprising thing was that McGonagall did not sit next to her. Diana had supposed she would, as there was an empty seat next to her.
Shrugging it of, she quickly dug into her food. After diner, Dumbledore started his every year speech.
"As ever, I would like to remind you all that the Forest in the grounds is out-of-bounds to students, as is the village of Hogsmeade to all below third year. 'It is also my painful duty to inform you that the inter-house Quidditch Cup will not take place this year."
Almost everyone— mostly Quidditch players— where mouthing soundlessly, not being able to form words, it was clear they weren't happy.
"This is due to an event that will be starting in October, and continuing throughout the school year, taking up much of the teachers' time and energy – but I am sure you will all enjoy it immensely. I have great pleasure in announcing that this year at Hogwarts-" Dumbledore continued.
Though he was cut of by the loud sound or rumbling thunder and at the exact moment the doors of the great hall banged open. Diana's eyes widened when she saw who entered and her yaw clenched.
He walked towards the staff table and lightning flashed again, there where a few gasps as it lit up the scarred face of none other then MadEye Moody.
Moody greeted Dumbledore and then sat down, right next to Diana. "Potter." He greeted, but she didn't say anything back. 'What is he doing here?' Is all she could think.
Dumbledore answered that question. May I introduce our new defence against the dark arts teacher, Professor Moody." Diana internally groaned, she had to be stuck with this guy for an entire damn school year.
He was probably only here because that bastard of a Karfkaroff was going to be here for the Triwizard Tournament.
Dumbledore started to explain said tournament and Diana had to cover her ears to block out the noice of the cheers and yells.
When she uncovered them, it was all died down for the most. "Yeh alright there?" Moody asked her and she scoffed. "Fine." She said shortly.
"I am not joking, Mr. Weasley, though now you mentioned it, I did hear an excellent over the summer about a troll, a hag and a leprechaun who all got into a bar-" he stopped when he saw the looks he received from McGonagall and Diana who had heard the 'funny' joke multiple times that summer.
Dumbledore went on with explaining the tournament and Diana had to, once again, cover her ears when Dumbledore said it was for seventeen and older.
Diana did not miss the mischievous looks on the twins faces when Dumbledore continued and when they caught her eyes, she gave them a warning glare to which Fred just jokingly winked.
Afterwards, all houses left to their common rooms and Diana headed to her own room, ignoring Moody trying to make conversation with her. "Potter, it's been long, last time I saw yeh, you where barely an adult." He said but she just kept walking.

Diana cleared her throat, interrupting Fred, George and Lee who where talking about making an aging potion for the tournament.
"Andy, how great to see you!" George said when he turned around. "How was the summer?" Fred asked after him.
"That'll be Professor, Weasley." She corrected. "There's no need to call me Professor, Andy." George grinned and Diana flicked his forehead.
"What do I hear of an aging potion?" She said and they all shared look. "Nothing, Professor, we're just studying our potions homework." Lee said innocent.
'Yes, and my name is really Sardothien.' She thought to herself. "And you expect me to believe that?" She raised her eyebrows.
"It's our topic with potions-" "Why not ask Snape-" "And see for yourself." "Or you choose not to believe us, innocent students, of course."
The twins blinked at her and she looked at Snape who just entered the great hall. "Good idea, there he is." She nodded his way and attempted to make her way towards him.
She was quickly stopped by the twins. "Potions homework, huh?" She grinned and she could see them trying to make up excuses.
"I'm not even going to bother." And she walked away, knowing that even if they got to brew it, they wouldn't succeed in participating.
"She's to good." Lee says as they all watch her. "How does she always know!?" George complains and they hear someone chuckling. "Because she's smart and you're not." Pippa says, sitting down.
"Wow, rude." Fred says glaring slightly. "I thought 'you didn't give compliments' what's this sudden change?" He continues and she rolls her eyes. "You can't take a joke when you aren't the one making it can you, Freddie?" She chuckles
When Diana sits down, it doesn't take long for Moody to join her. "So its Sardothien now, aye?" He asks and Diana simply nods.
"Still think it's sad you didn't choose life as an Auror, you would've done great." He says and Diana just looks at him and fills her plate.
"Not saying your job in Romania was bad or anything, you still got the burn mark on your leg I see?" Diana raises her eyebrows, she never even told him about the mark, how can he even know it's still-
She notices his magical eye looking at her leg and she stands up and walks out. That eye shouldn't even be allowed. Steam is practically coming out of her ears as she walks out of the great hall.
How did he even know that the burn mark was ever there?
Barty acting sus👀 Kidding, no he's just a bit weird about seeing his old bestie again.
