“From what I hear you and your little cohort have been quite industrious lately.” She said, sitting again with him at the little side desk. This time there were no paper scraps between them, merely a smooth table surface. “Yes ma’am. We’ve been trying to anticipate obstacles and figure out how to ov...

“What?!” He balked, “we don’t sneak ou- oh wait!” He’d been so shocked by the accusation his memory of the day had disappeared for a moment. “We actually did sneak out this mor… how’d you know that?” He suddenly returned Winry’s accusatory glare with doubled resolve. She glowered and turned away. “T...

Roaring Reggy’s enthusiasm was paid off the next day, and he took to the field while Logan sat in the bleachers and perused the assignment for his potions class. The assignment was a bit of a review this early in the semester, and he eventually found himself thumbing through the index of potions. Th...

“Hey! Did I say to go-oh!” The instructor’s angry lines were replaced with concern and he rushed forward. “Easy there, easy, it’s just a little splinch.” Logan tried to smile, but it turned into a grimace as he lifted up his arm. It felt like he’d dipped it in molten metal. Winry came and put her co...

“Now, we’re not going to start with the mandrake leaf this month, because I don’t want you to accidentally spit it out while you’re learning to apparate, but I think you should start with your dew collection as soon as possible.” She wrote out a note and handed it to him. “This will give you special...

On the first day of class, Logan discovered that for sixth year students, the first week was advising and book acquisitions only. It was essentially a free week. He met with his head of house on a Monday and went over his OWL grades with him. “You did fairly well in all your test areas,” explained G...

Since Logan had galleons that year which he’d been paid by Glen in exchange for American dollars, it was difficult for him to not buy things in Diagon Alley. The only reason he was there was for potion ingredients from the list professor McGonagall had given him, but the undeniable pull to spoil his...

6th year: 2008 Logan stepped in the door of the pub behind the McClouds as discretely as he could manage, and fell in line behind Winry, who was herself as at the rear of the little crowd. He wasn’t sure what Alora was doing there, but he could wait to find out. He stayed as close to them as he coul...

By the time they’d turned around twice, it was time to return to Hogwarts again. The whole family came out to farewell them at the train station, and ended up mixing company with the little family of the other Hogwarts student who’d dropped off there the same day as them two weeks ago. Winry and Log...

The family’s Christmas eve tradition turned out to be copious amounts of hot chocolate and warm butterbeer, along with numerous varieties of biscuits, and all the Christmas stories Logan had never heard before. The floo was closed off and turned into an actual fireplace, and Alora conjured little ch...

Christmas break rolled along lazily after the brief excitement of rushing to America for gifts. Logan and Winry talked more of their plotting and planning for the tri-wizard tournament, even taking in some of the others in their plotting. Alora offered them a potion recipe she’d come by that increas...

“Well, that went about as well as could be expected.” Glen said, dusting red ash off his shoulders out of habit as he stepped from the floo behind Logan. “Now, let’s see how our old friend Ludo has fared.” Marching across town, Glen and Logan returned to the same spot on the same building, and tappe...

“Alright,” said Glen, rubbing his hands together enthusiastically, “let’s have that list shall we?” Logan produced the scrap from his pocket and handed it to Glen, who pinched it with another scrap in his hand. He produced a pale wand from within his coat and tapped it on the side of a building. A m...

The next morning, Winry mentioned the music phone over breakfast, and there was an immediate demand to see the object in question. Logan bashfully produced his muggle artifact and placed it on the table, turning on an album of Christmas music by the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Alora immediately slid i...

Winry’s father arrived later that day with the eldest daughter in tow. Apparently the floo in their living room wasn’t working properly, so they’d all been having to use one of the floo stations in town for the trips too far for apparition. Logan regarded them warmly as they made their rounds greeti...

At last, the carriage rolled into a crevice between two hills and rolled up to a fascinating building tucked in there. It reminded Logan of the yurts that he’d seen back in America, but it appeared as though someone had taken three of them and stacked them up on each other. They piled out of the car...

Christmas came around, and with a pocket full of gifts and holiday greetings from everyone at home, Logan and Winry caught a smaller train from the Hogwarts platform at Hogsmeade station which carried further into the Scottish Highlands. It took them out past the many lochs and glens that formed the...

The fifth year at Hogwarts was a very good one. Logan’s parents made it out for the opening Quidditch game, and got to watch Slytherin scrape a victory out over Hufflepuff, recovering from a continuous twenty point tail by stealing Logan’s strategy and chasing the new Hufflepuff seeker around the pi...

5th year: 2007-08 During the summer, Logan stayed in touch with Winry, and also stayed in touch with several other friends from school. The lot of them spent a good amount of time digesting what all they had witnessed during the Tri-wizard tournament, and several of them had determined that they wis...

The very same evening, when the Charming Transitions club held their weekly meeting, Logan fielded the idea around to their club-mates and they eventually discovered a sixth year girl from Gryffindor who knew a thing or two about magical seam work, and another fourth year from Ravenclaw who had figu...

4th year: 2006-07 School Year The Tri-wizard tournament was held at Hogwarts that year, and Logan ooed and awed along with everyone else as the two other schools burst into the Great Hall on the day of their arrival with their marvelously choreographed showcase entrances. He was disappointed to lear...

3rd year: 2005-06 School Year Hufflepuff had been doing quite well at Quidditch that season. With the addition of some new blood and fresh energy, they had managed to beat out both Gryffindor and Ravenclaw through the tournament until now at last, it had come down to Hufflepuff and Slytherin. The mo...

2nd year: 2004-05 School Year The new school year got off to a rough start for all of Hogwarts. A well-liked Slytherin named Archer who would have been returning for his 7th year died over the summer, and the rumors were that he was killed by dark wizards - Logan heard one student say "Deatheaters" ...

1st year: 2003-04 School Year Logan sniggered and pushed back against a child he’d just met on the train ride from London, whom he now knew to be the younger brother of a student in House Gryffindor. After their spectacular trip across "Black Lake" on self-rowing boats, they'd been marched up the va...

The worst of the encounter was past after Rodrick was gone. The circumstances as they were didn’t sit well with Jormund’s sensibilities, but they were what they were, so he made the most of it. Proding his Imperius charm as little as possible, the rejka gathered information from each of the trappers...
