Sebastian Grey always thought he was a fairly normal teenager -- good friends, decent grades, and a pretty sweet job in his foster brother's tattoo shop.

But when Romany gypsies arrive in town, Sebastian discovers that his world is not what it seems. There is an age-old feud between his family and the gypsies -- and this isn't the only secret his brother has been keeping from him. His life is not his own. The girl he's been dreaming about has just turned up as school, and he feels compelled to protect her at all costs.

Even if that means life might never be normal again

Hogwarts Legacy: Shades of Silver Lining by ps-cactus

This work is marked as part of a series BUT I cover and explain all important points from already posted stories (in first 3 chapters, they are already posted) so you don't have to read them before this one. Rated Mature for mental health issues, psychological traumas and trauma triggers, and a couple of scenes with graphic depictions of violence. Amberlyn just wants life to feel normal for once. But at sixteen, wielding Ancient Magic she struggles to control, constantly needing to prove she isn't a danger to magical society, and navigating her first-crush-turned-secret-relationship, normality is rather hard to come by. Ominis Gaunt is determined to make it through his remaining years at Hogwarts, the only path to freeing himself from the dark shadow of his family's legacy-a legacy that relentlessly haunts him and that now threatens those he holds dear. Meanwhile, the Auror, investigating a case involving that mysterious and extremely dangerous girl, decides that keeping her friend, Sebastian Sallow-who's already missed half a year of school-close at hand might be more useful than anyone expects. estimate for this short story - 50k words
