Summary
At sixteen, I decided that one woefully neglected six-year-old boy—yes, that boy, with a destiny too heavy for his tiny shoulders—deserved a proper childhood. Naturally, I handled this with the subtlety of a goblin wielding a glitter cannon: I stole a Chrono-Selective Time-Turner from my family vault, defied at least three minor laws of physics, and hurled myself headfirst into the 1980s, where I promptly reinvented myself as Alex Selwyn—French accent, golden eyes, and just enough charm to convince anyone that my sudden appearance wasn’t suspicious.
Blending in? Hah. Spoiler: I don’t. Between part-time jobs in Diagon Alley, endless doodles, perfectly timed pranks, and occasionally questioning the very concept of “legal behavior,” I discovered the revolutionary art of caring for someone unconditionally.
And Harry? Well, that poor, unsuspecting child got a childhood that was messy, magical, and probably legally questionable in half a dozen countries, full of laughter, crepes, and chaos—the sort of childhood only a slightly reckless, world-bendingly dramatic witch like me could provide.
