The Mysterious Child of Tonks
Summary
This quick fic is inspired by Flash Fic Friday prompts on Fanatical Fics Discord & also by the lovely OC, Thunder Tonks, created in a collaborated effort by the Hufflepuff common room. I chose to use Thunder because they're the best, but also because I am selfishly very proud of the detail of this character that I came up with that was very well-received. That would be that Tonks can reproduce asexually.

"Shit, shit, shit, shit" Tonks muttered panic stricken as she pulled her baby out of the vat of Felix Felicis she just dropped him in.

"Evanesco" she said, watching as the liquid luck vanished off her child.

Sweet little Gabriel Storm Tonks looked at his mother gleefully. Tonks returned a weak smile. What have I done? She thought to herself.

Several years have passed since that unlucky lucky incident. The 11-year-old had since come out as non-binary and changed their name to Thunder Gabriel Storm. The only problem Tonks had with this revelation was the name decision. Like. . . it was sweet and all that they decided to keep the name "Gabriel" and change it to a middle name. . . but placing it between "Thunder" and "Storm?" Like really? Why would they not go with "Thunder Storm?" Whatever will be will be. Tonks decided to respect Thunder's wishes regardless.

As Thunder grew up, varying magical abilities presented themselves. Because of Thunder's unique circumstances, it was difficult to pinpoint the exact source of these abilities. You see. . . in addition to Thunder being dropped in to a vat of Felix Felicis, they were also the result of the asexual reproduction of a Metamorphmagus witch with ADHD.

The 11-year-old had long since been able to use Metamorphmagus abilities to change their appearance at will and typically sported quite a bizarre appearance. One side of Thunder's head was shaved and the other side was a thick head of purple hair in tight ringlets. They usually accompanied this look with glam punk clothing, several piercings, and a badass snake tattoo around their naval. Thunder had made a deal with their mother that they would only don the tattoo and piercings at home.

Thunder also had developed the strange and terrifying ability to see into people's souls. They couldn't see everything in a person's soul, but rather was able to see a single object that represented the distillation of one's soul, which apparently can say quite a lot about a person.

Tonks shuddered thinking back to Ron and Hermione's wedding. Thunder had just acquired the x-ray vision ability and had recently been diagnosed with ADHD. For those of you who aren't aware, children are not known for having filters. . . especially not those with ADHD.

Ron was in absolute hysterics when Thunder revealed that Hermione's soul was 'Hogwarts, a History.' That was until Thunder told Ron what his soul was. Tonks had never someone's entire demeanor change as quickly as Ron's did when Thunder announced that Ron's soul is the equivalent to a 2nd place trophy.
