Did you ever wonder what happened to Ominis Gaunt after the events of Hogwarts Legacy? Why is his name missing from the Gaunt family tree? How did the once noble House of Gaunt fall into ruin, reduced to a shack in Little Hangleton? History has forgotten a great many things. Among them is the unwritten tale of Rosemary Abbott - Hero of Hogwarts - a name that never made it to Harry Potter's history books. One might wonder why. This historian may have found the answers in a little known romance novel, published over a century ago. It tells the sweet tale of two young friends, who found themselves suddenly arranged to be married by their families. Rosemary, whose family's tradition insists on marrying after graduation, finds the match unexpectedly agreeable. But Ominis...would rather condemn himself to a life of solitude than endanger the girl he's secretly loved for a year. His only solution is for her to find someone else... Is this romance novel purely fiction, or is it inspired by real events lost to time? As public records from 1890-1893 are difficult to verify, thanks to a mysterious fire in the Records Room at the Ministry...we may never know. ------- SPOILER + WARNING: *Some quests from the game have been used in this story with endings that have been reimagined to further the plot. *There are some scenes of violence (mostly while dueling) and mentions of death, but I have tried to keep it as non-graphic as possible.

**MATURE THEMES/SMUT** Picking up the pieces of a mess you didn't make is never a great experience. Walking into your seventh year, with an undeniable crush on your best friend, you knew it would be an experience you wouldn't forget. With Renee (MC) working to heal Sebastian, you find yourself desperately trying to mend Ominis along the way. Though taller and broader, Ominis is trapped in his trauma, especially as he struggles to find where to go after Hogwarts. Family, Friendship, Love, and Lies lead us into the tale of Whenever, Wherever. Warnings/Disclaimers: Usage of MC and Y/N as separate entities (I recommend the extension 'InteractiveFics' to replace the name with your own), Mature content, Smut, Mention of Death, Suicidal Ideation, and Abuse. My only knowledge of the Harry Potter world comes from this Hogwarts game so please feel free to reach out and correct me when I get things wrong, it is much appreciated.

HOGWARTS LEGACY SPOILERS AHEAD!! Ominis x Reader fanfiction is based in their seventh year. All characters have been aged up to 18 years of age where explicit content is involved. Written from the perspective of fem Slytherin y/n. ---------- Sebastian has been sent to Azkaban. Of course, Ominis blames you--it's only natural after everything that happened in your fifth year. For the entirety of your sixth year, Sebastian was at Azkaban. While Ominis understood that it was a necessary action to take considering what Sebastian did, he didn't forget that you encouraged it, or that you partook in the dark arts yourself. It was against everything he stood for. He warned you every step of the way, and neither you nor Sebastian listened to his warnings. By a stroke of luck, the ministry has decided to give Sebastian a second chance. He gets to come back to Hogwarts for his seventh year of schooling. Ominis is still Sebastian's friend, but he wants to keep you away from him at all costs. He hates you for what you did to his best friend. On a happy note, St. Mungos finally found a cure for Anne Sallow's curse, and she's back at Hogwarts for her seventh year as well. Your friendship with her blossoms, and makes it even harder for Ominis to stay away from you. Even though he hates you, he can't deny the attraction between the two of you. Everything changed one night at a party in the Slytherin common room when you two come in close contact. But can he fight his feelings and stay away from you? ---------- TRIGGER WARNINGS: Sexual Content: 5/10 Mental Illnesses: 7/10 Violence: 3/10 Self Harm: 6/10
