Disclaimer:

Well... Miss J.K., I just proved I am better than my stupid brother. Chapter four and still single… Now that I think of it, maybe I am the stupid one. Meh, I do this for free.

Having Elves rocked! No cooking, washing dishes, laundry, if you asked it they would spoon-feed you. I told them we had a dinner party tomorrow night and they take care of everything. I fell back to my routine, meditation, exercising, magic control, popping over to Duddi, getting the crap beaten out of me by Duddi, popping back home. I brushed up on wizarding customs with my ancestor's paintings to prepare for tonight's dinner.

4 An eventful August.

At dinner time, the guests arrived, popping in with my elves. The greetings with the males, the brushing of the hands with the women and girls. To tease her, I kissed Tracey's hand again, the poor girl blew a fuse. Neville is just a shy boy, his gran was easy to recognize with that vulture hat. A lot of theories were made of that hat on the fan sites.

Astoria, I'm told has been meditating from the moment she got her wand until now. Silently I passed her a muggle book about the human anatomy I found with mum's schoolbooks. I whispered to Astoria: "Study this book and circulate your magic through your bloodstream and your nerves. But ask permission from your parents first." Exited she showed the book to her parents.

Curious, Daphne asked why I gave her the book, I answered: "Well, she now has a wand that she is not allowed to touch for a whole year. This is just a book to guide her to understand the bloodstreams and nerves, so she can guide her magic better while meditating. You should read it too, it helps you with connecting to your magic better."

While the adults were mingling, the young adults, Lance, Peggy, Peter, and Nymphadora formed a group, the rest of the kids flocked together, well, the girls were gossiping, I ended up with Neville, I asked: "Hey, Mr. Neville, excited for Hogwarts? I am a bit reserved about it, you know, never known about magic, then being dropped into a new world is spooky." Neville responded: "It is scary for me too. Gran thought I did not have enough magic to get the Hogwarts letter."

I frowned at that: "is that so? May I test it? Give me your hand, and think about doing magic. OK... Miss Daphne? Can I have a moment please? I want to compare your magic capacity with Mr. Neville's. Can I hold your hand as we did in the wand shop? Now think of doing magic. Thank you both. Neville, you have about the same amount of magic as Miss Daphne, but it seems to be obstructed, did someone bound your magic? I had my blocks released at Gringotts at my birthday."

The adults noticed me holding Neville's and Daphne's hands and paid attention to our conversation. When the gran heard me say Neville's magic has a block, she paled and said: "That can't be, Dumbledore had him checked out after that fight and said he is fine."

Stumped I looked at her: "Madam do you forget the reason why you are here? I am 99% certain that Dumbledore put the block on Mr. Neville himself. I suggest letting the goblins examine him. It took a team of old Goblin cronies to remove my blocks, also the wand he is carrying is the exact opposite of his magic." Right, throw the faulty wand in the mix too. Gran scoffed: "That is his father's wand, it will work well for him." I responded: "Oh? You are his mother, try to use it yourself. I bet Mr. Neville can get better results with your wand than his fathers."

Before it got out of hand Lord Greengrass and Davis explained how I helped select their daughter's wands. Mr. Davis: "Augusta, Heir Potter went with us to Madam Wilson's wand shop, and selected perfect matches for Tracey, Lance, and Astoria. Lance said his new wand works a multitude better than his previous one. Heir Potter can sense magic on a level I never heard of. When he tells you Mr. Neville's magic is blocked, my advice is to believe it."
