In the noble and ancient House of Black, there are two kinds of children: those who perform the family's legacy, and those who quietly refuse it.
Borealis Walburga Black does both.
To the world, she is the perfect Black heiress - composed, elegant, precisely what is required of her. To the handful of people who have earned the right to see past the architecture of her composure, she is something else entirely: a girl who cackles too loudly, reads Muggle literature behind closed doors, and calculates the exact kinetic vectors of her own grand jeté in the margins of her Arithmancy notes.
She is fourteen years old. She is training for the most demanding ballet examination in the Wizarding World. She has a brother who stayed, a brother who left, and a crush on the boy who is best friends with the one who left.
She has everything she is working toward.
For now.
