- The Weasley twins tell them about the differences of ‘identical’, ‘fraternal’ and ‘core-like’ twins.
- ‘Core-like’ twins can be fraternal or identical but their magical cores are basically the same

- Sirius is very confused and concerned
- He waits for Harry (and hopefully Danny) to return and tries to remain calm
- Danny doesn’t really want to tell Sirius about Phantom but also doesn’t see a way out, so he tells him, Harry supporting him

- Sirius is very sorry about thinking of revenge first and the twins’ safety second on that Halloween night
- Days pass and Harry feels the need to read up a little and even join Danny’s study sessions since Danny already seems to know more than him- and he’s been in the wizarding world
for longer

- Clockwork is Danny’s ghostly guardian and mentor, which is why Danny calls him Grandfather
- Then they talk about Harry’s first introduction to the wizarding world and how awful the Dursley’s truly are

They decide they want to go to Diagon together before the obligatory school shopping
- The next day, Snape almost manages to halt the twins’ plans and Dumbledore believes Snape would be a great bodyguard for the brothers

Fortunately, Tonks and Hestia agree to accompany the twins
At Diagon Alley they first go to Gringotts for the inheritance test (Danny is Heir Potter, has a Knighthood and is king-to-be of the Infinite Realms. Harry is Heir to the Black Family and given the title ‘Prince’ because of Danny’s status, he could also claim the Slytherin Heirship through Right of Conquest)

- They take their heir rings and harry has an immediate connection with his’, and he feels comforted by the cold and the shadows around him

They also received private keys to their trust vault and pouches that would give them the amount of money they need

- Harry then buys himself a new wardrobe because his current clothes are all old, too large and/or ripped
- They then go to a shop near Knockturn Alley for new glasses for Harry
- The witch in the shop instead offers to completely repair his eyesight, which is expensive but life long

He takes her up on it and Danny gets himself a mokesquin pouch where he can store almost endless things
- They experience a wizarding restaurant
- They return to HQ

They talk about Danny’s status as Crown Prince and why Harry has a title as well (because he is the king-to-be’s brother) and the existence of his clone Ellie, who is a princess

CHAPTER 16: Final Preparations

- The next day, Harry can now see perfectly and loves it
- Danny and Harry affirm that yes, they are handsome, to each other

Danny tells Harry that he plans to get revenge on the Dursleys for how they’ve treated Harry. Harry is a bit worried but altogether fine with it
- Danny has his exams that week to ensure he could join the OWL classes
- Danny finds Harry and his friends in the middle of a fight where Ron and Hermione want Harry to spend less time with Danny

Harry is understandably confused about what exactly is going on but their argument escalates
- Ron and Hermione do like Danny but just want to have more of Harry’s attention, basically
- They don’t quite understand why having his twin by his side is important for Harry

Harry leaves them to think about it
- Danny wonders if Harry is now a necromancer thanks to the heir ring and his new connection to shadows

There is a difference between necromancers and Wiccan folk that can dabble in necromancy, though Harry isn’t one

- Harry is annoyed at the way his friends are acting but tells Danny that whatever their problem is, it’ll pass
- The atmosphere became stilted because of the fight and dinner wasn’t much fun
- They worry about Sirius who hasn’t shown up all day

The twins find him drunk in his room later that night
- Sirius is ashamed for the way the twins find him

The brothers manage to coax him back to reality. Danny gives him a forceful detox that takes his drunkenness away so they can talk eye to eye
- They take Sirius outside, giving him some time away from the house that caused him a lot of pain and trauma

The trio spends some time watching the night sky and bonding, talking about their issues though Sirius is still worried about their safety and wants to return
- They agree that Danny’s ectoplasm keeps them safe enough and will take Sirius out more often, until they leave for Hogwarts. Harry asks about the ring

Sirius is unsure what it is, but it might be a thought-to-be lost ability that the Black family used to have and was awakened by the Heir ring

- He talks about a possible connection to ‘Deathland’ and Danny thinks that the space in the shadows is the one where memories and imprints of the deceased end up aka Lugar Eterno
- Harry can interact with them

When they return, Ron notices them entering their shared room and ignores them, which hurts Harry

- While Harry goes to sleep, Danny leaves once more
- In an empty area, he creates a portal and invites Poindexter over
- Danny ‘hires’ the ghost to scare the Dursleys till their last threat of sanity is about to snap, without fully hurting them

Poindexter is fully on board and Danny feels more relaxed, knowing that is taken care of. The Dursley’s won’t be able to hurt a child when they’re in a mental institution, after all

- Meanwhile, Voldemort is up to no good, surprise
- He wants more information on the muggle ghosts and especially the one Rainstedt fought
- Rainstedt and Macnair hand him two books on ghosts from the Ministry and Rainstedt tells him about a town in the US that is rumoured to see a lot of ghosts
- Voldemort sends Macnair off to have a look at the town and maybe bring a ghost back with him

He is very excited and looks forward to see his new plan unfold

CHAPTER 17: Hoggy Warty Hogwarts, Teach Us Something, Please

- Danny passes all his exams and exceeds expectations
- The Golden Trio is still not on speaking terms but it’s obvious to everyone but the three that they want to make up

Harry doesn’t understand why Ron became Prefect when Neville would’ve been a better choice

- He does see how his life apparently seems to be looking better (a supportive and protective twin, a loving godfather, new magic…)
- Harry also wonders why his weird dreams have started back up, taking away from his needed sleep

Danny thinks it’s because of their lessened proximity, since he has to go out almost every night the week leading up to Hogwarts to take care of a huge natural portal leading to the GZ

- They had their third outing to Diagon, this time to get their school supplies
- Sirius told Remus about Danny’s halfa status, betraying the boy’s trust and making him disappointed

Danny has them swear an oath to never tell anyone without his permission about him ever again
- Harry stuck with him all the while and calmed him down enough that Danny could accept the newest member in the know and somewhat forgive his quasi uncle

Harry meanwhile learned to become more comfortable with the shadows and can now somewhat control them. They comfort him

- The day they head off to Hogwarts, everyone is excited. The Weasley twins are already planning their pranks and how to distribute their new products
- Harry has renewed problems and pains from his scar and tries to ignore it, not even Danny’s proximity helps in this case
- Danny is looking forward to sending pictures of Hogwarts and the train station from his magic-resistant phone to his friends.
- Sam and Tucker had told him about the weird looking people that had roamed Amity Park for a while

He misses them but is also happy with his current life

- At the station, Harry sees the Malfoys and feels hatred toward Lucius for being a free man and able to take care of his son despite being a death eater and terrorist
- Danny is a bit disappointed that the express to Hogwarts is just that- a train with compartments, nothing special

They (the twins and Ginny) find a compartment with Neville and Luna in it and Neville is very surprised to see two Harry’s

- Neville immediately welcomes Danny
- Luna is introduced to everyone in the compartment and she freaks everyone a bit out when she mentions Nargles and other beings that only she can see

Neville and Luna believe Harry that Voldemort is back and the boy offers his support, which warms Harry

- Draco Malfoy makes an entrance
- He is very dumbfounded when he also finds Harry’s twin
- He does not shake the hand Danny offers him, too confused to react much besides disbelief
- Malfoy is also angry that Harry is Heir Black
- Harry almost starts a physical fight when Malfoy mentions Lucius Malfoy

His friends ask if Harry is okay after Draco leaves in a huff

- Harry manages to relax, his occlumency training starting to pay off (Danny had told him about it and given him some tips)
- Danny starts texting his friends and they argue about the pros and cons of magic
- They arrived in Hogsmead and notice the Thestrals

The first look at Hogwarts is magical and Danny loves it

- They seat themselves unnoticed at the Gryffindor table and notice The Toad sitting at the teacher’s table. No one is happy about it
- Harry’s mood worsens when Voldemort decides to somehow push his emotions into Harry’s scar
- The housing starts and at the end, Dumbledore lets the bomb of Daniel Potter drop. Chaos ensues
- Hermione tells everyone off and wishes to speak with Harry later, intending to apologise

They head to bed and Harry gets a vision

- Voldemort has acquired a ghostly prisoner: Skulker
- He is very happy about it and tries to get as much information from the ghost as possible
- Skulker does lie about Phantom, implying that the whelp is a simple ghost

Voldemort doesn’t believe him and tells him as much, telling him that he has all the time in the world to get satisfactory answers
