Harrison James Potter was raised to be all of what Petunia Dursley née Evans has failed.

She thank God that the child was small for his age and had a androgyne face. The boy was mold into the perfect daughter she had always wish, to the point she often forget he was a boy.
When she was a teen Petunia didn’t get the chance to have long hair, too focus on her study, so Harrisson get the best haircare she can get her hand in.

She teach him manners and fashion, how to behave perfectly.
How to clean every surfaces of the house, how to decored to make it a home.
How to garden and keep the flowers perfect to win the prize of the neighborhood garden competition five years in a row.
How to cook, but to keep a perfect diet to not get any weight.
How to bake for the tea party during the weekly book club.
How to speak to take control of a conversation without people knowledge, to manipule a gossip to bring a petty neighbor down.
How to use his look to take advantage of a woman or even a man.
Petunia take pride to parade her nephew like a doll, showing him off to who want to see.

But only one thing remaint, Hogwards Magic School.
Being a squib, she couldn’t enter the school and she know that it was a question of time before her nephew will have to go there. Petunia had seen Harrisson doing magic accidentaly during cooking or cleaning.
So by pure pettyness, she teach Harrisson how to celebrate the Pagan Holiday since he was in age to read.

-----

Harrisson was not suprise when a giant man, named Rubeus Hagrid, come to his aunt house to tell him he was a wizard. Long ago when Aunt Petunia start to teach him the Pagan Holiday he had feel stronger after each ritual.
So he had make his research at the library where he found about the significations of crystals, flowers, the circles and the rituals. The stories of witches who had to hide they nature by fear of being hunted.

The wizarding world was...How to say it ? Yeah, very disappointing.
Celebrating a kid for not dying ? Waiting for ten years to said kid, only for him to fight again a madman to save them?
Not to talk about the blood purist...
What a bunch of idiots! Losing themself in ignorance and inbreed. Not suprising they were so little much of them compare to the muggles.

**********

Hogwards was a pur beauty, sentient after welcoming thousand of magicals beings for thousand of years.
Harry could considerate Her home if not for all the danger he face since he walk in Her walls.

First year ? Being judge because of being a Slytherin. What is evil in being cunning and having a good self-preservation ? Absolutly nothing.
Since when celebrating the Pagan Holiday was Dark ? Witches celebrated this holidays for thousand of years.
For Harrisson it was totaly normal to behave like it does. Everyone around him would look at him a little strangely when he would talk about arts and design, even when he talk about how the others shouldn’t projected their ideals onto him.
Harrison don't care about houses rivalry or blood purity and actively opposed the Headmaster when he remplaced the Wizards holidays to the Christian muggles ones. Harrison refused to participed at the feast and did his rituals in a corner of the Slytherin common room under the supervision of Professeur Snape.

The Headmaster call him at the end of the year and have the audacity to ask him why he did not use the invisible cloak -who was stole for His vault by the old man by the way- to stop Professeur Quirrell from getting the philosopher stone. Senil old man wanting for a kid to do his job.
During the summer Harry gossip with Petunia about Dumbledore suspicious attitude, his aunt warned him about Mrs Arrabella Figgs. A old lady living a few houses away with a handful of cat. Apparently Figgs was a squib spying on them for Dumbledore.

-----

Second years ? A gianganstic deadly snake in a chamber under the school. When in the world is was this his responsability to deal with the basilisk, just because he could talk to it.
What do they want him to do? Asking it to join him for tea ? What in the world ?
He did what he had to do and contact to responsible authority and send a letter to the head of the DLME, Madame Amelia Bones.
A wonderful woman with a strong sense of justice. A beautiful no-nonsense woman.
He had enjoy watching her torn apart the old coot for wanting a child to resolve his pest problem.
This summer Petunia and co leave for a trip in Italie. During the trip she take him to the Gringots Branch to a proper introduction with the goblins. They couldn’t do much for him but at least he learn what to ask to the British goblins once home.

-----

Third years ? A psychotic godfather, Sirius Black fugitive after escaping Azkaban, a magical prison, to "finish" the job for his master death.
Well this one was really strange. Headmaster Dumbledore and The Ministry in their great wisdom posted Dementors around the school ground.
The demeantor -creature garding the prisonners feeding on their happiness- were having a morbide curiousity about Harrisson and would seek him to the point where he was force to home with Professor Snape in the teacher dorm for his own security.
From the creatures, not from the convict who was in reality a innocent man who had been cast away in jail without a fair trial.
The reunion on the other hand, was not sunshine and rainbow like what everyone was expecting.
Violent exchange of words were made, Harrison had been judge by his tasteless godfather for being a slytherin and for choosing to stay with Petunia. In exchange Harrison hit where it hurt and had judge him for his poor decision to abandon a injured baby after a traumatic incident to chase a rat. Reminding him how he fail his vows as a godparent.

This summer he was introduce to the member of Order of Phoenix at Sirius house, a vigilante group who fight again the Dark Lord even in his death, after a kidnapping from Dumbledore. One more move like this and Harrison would press charged and ask for a restincting order agains the old man.
Seriously wizards should learn new hobby.
Turn out the gingerhead who insult him at school had half of his family in the Order, the Weasley. Strange bunch of gingers with too much children and too little money. The father -Arthur- was a tired little man working at the Ministry, the mother -Molly- was a harpy screaming and trying to boss everyone and the children were well not so bad. The eldests -William and Charlie- run from home as soon they career where stables, the youngests -Ronald- was rotten by Molly after the presume death of Ginerva in the Chamber of Secret.
The only acceptable were the twins -
Fred and George- two pranksters living for the chaos their created and Percy who was a apprentice under the Minister secretary.
Moody Mad-eye, a paranoid scard man who work as auror in the Ministry.
Remus Lupin, ex-professor. A werewolf who reject his wolf only to then complaint that the wolf was not "cooperatif" during full moon.
Surprisely Professeur Mc Gonnagal, eternal babysitter of the Great Dumbledore and Professeur Snape, spy on the two sides.
And this circus was lead by no others that Albus too many name Dumbledore. Utterly ridiculous.

-----

Fourth years ? A extremly dangerous competition. The Triwizard Tournament, a competition who was banned for three centuries and know for killing his participants.
The wizarding world should learn to preserve their offspring with how so little much they are.
Well at least it was entertaining for a moment until his name was call by this stupid cup.
Being force in the Tournament by the Headmaster and the Minister because his gardian was not allow in the school, he refuse to participate because no thank you, he didn’t put his fucking name on this ugly goblet.
He just pop in the day of the task and declare forfait immediatly when it was his turn. Unfortunaly after the last task during the celebration of Cedric Diggoric victory, Harrisson was abduct by his very apologetic fake Defense teacher. Turn out Mad-eye was Barty Crouch Jr on polyjuice potion to spy on him for the Dark Lord.
Very much alive dead Dark Lord who ressurected thank to himself.
By not reacting Harrison had let Quirrell take the philosopher stone and Ginerva Weasley served as a sacrifice in the Secret Chamber.
It was his first encounter face to face with the say Dark Lord, Tom Marvolo Riddle aka Lord Voldemort. Really handsome man in Harrisson opinion but sadly a bad man.
After trying to put Harrisson under Imperio and failling the man made him drink Veritaserum and ask him a bunch of question about life, there were various awkwards moment revolving around intertwined magics and touching foreheads. The morning after the man drop him back to Hogwards kissing his knuckles goodbye.
Thank to the Potter luck nobody notice he was missing, so no word about the return of a Dark Lord was out.

-----

Fifth years ? Was his absolut favorite. No danger, no drama. A simple, normal year.
But unfortunaly for him it was the calm before the storm.

-----

Sixth years ? Crazy school staffs and students. Harrisson could never been so relax in the castle when everyone where running around like headless chicken for studying and searching what futur career they wanted. Good luck with that, if their were really listening during classe they would have know what exactly was asked to them. Not much happened except for the first career counseling.
And oh boy! What a mess...
Harrisson didn’t get the say one word, all of the teachers where talking between themself about a auror career and a teacher career -just like his parents- even if he try to refuse their advices he was interrupt by the Headmaster. Fucking medling old man. So he just smile and nodded, he will talk with his HeadHouse teacher later about his plan.

Talking career with Severus Snape was strange. When Harrison first arrived at Hogwards the man had violently reacted to the fact that a Potter was sort in Slytherin and take him apart to warned him about pranks not being accepted. Harrison discovered later that his father and Sirius were Snape bullies before his mother abandon their friendship to marry James.
Really fuck up at his viewpoint. Later on the man see for himself that Harrison was nothing like his parents and to not have any expectation from him.

"So Mr Potter, what can i do for you in this evening ?" Snape ask him without looking up, grading the papers on his table.

"Well Professor, earlier during the career counseling you were not present and i want to have this dicussion with someone who would truly listen when a talk not someone who will push his expectation on me. So here am i."

Snape hand stopped and the man sighed.
"All right sit down Mr Potter. What are your plan for the futur ?"

"Thank for asking sir. I want to be a housewife sir." Harry confidently say.

"Yes a house...I'm sorry what ? " Snape was confuse, he know not to have exceptation but this was not a option he has think about for the boy.

"A traditional housewife. With a husband and all, keeping the house when my husband at work. Maybe a part-time job if i'm too bored. Or having children, i heard that wizard could get pregnant. Is that true sir ?"

Snape chocked on air, cought and take a deep breath before looking at Harry dumbfouned. The boy want to be a housewife ? With children ? Has he hallucinating on potions fumes again?
Looking at the serious face in front of him, Severus know the boy was waiting for real counseling from him.

"Hum... Well yes, a wizard can regardless the gender procreate with the proper treatment and balance diet. Anyways let's go back to your future career, i advise you to go at Gringots they have the informations about proper candidate for a proposition of courtship. Talk about your project with Lord Black, he is your legal magical guardian. Oh and Mr Potter don't go around telling people about it. Do not forget you are the Famous Boy-who-live. Who know what they would do to have their child bond to you. Discretion is the key. For the time being just respond vaguely when ask." He watch the young man nodded and write down what he just say, feeling a headache growing he dismissed Harrisson.

That summer Harrisson ask a overjoy Petunia to take him to Gringots for the search of the perfect futur husband. With the help of the goblin they learn that Harrisson was emancipated after the Tournament, he take the Potter-Peverell Lordship.
Now that he was Lord of his houses, he didn't have to ask Sirius for permission to draft a courtship contract. Petunia autorisation was needed for the muggle part of it but she already give her blessing long ago.

They discovered all sort of things at Gringots like how Dumbledore stole money and artefacts from his vaults, how he used the Potter votes at the Wizegarmote illegaly for laws Harrisson truly oppose like the regulation of vampires and werewolfs. They learn that the war actualy start because of a prophetie who was guard at the Ministry, that was the reason Harrisson was in the middle of the war. A half bake prophetie.
It’s very angry at Dumbledore and the Dark Lord that Petunia and Harrison get to the Ministry to take the prophetie from the Hall of Propheties. A big hall with tall shelf full of ball containing the fate of certain people who often were not even notify about it.

**********

The Dark Lord was sit at the table head with his death-eaters talking about their succesful infiltration in the Ministry when a trembling little house-elf pop in the room.

"I...I is Poppy. My Gentle Master Harrisson tell I to give this to Evil Master Dark Lord. I is sorry to derange Evil Master Dark Lord during plotting but My Gentle Master said is urgent business." The elf give him a memory orb before popping away.

The moment he touched the orb the image of a very agitated Harrisson Potter, clearly intoxicate, in his night gown was project in the hall. The death-eaters watched his reactions in silence waiting to see what and why Potter would contact the Dark Lord that way.

"I'm sorry to interruped whatever you are doing but it urgent matter." Potter pace in the room a glass of wine in hand " What kind of idiot go after a baby for a half ass prophetie? Seriously i can't believe it ! You and Dumbledore are completely nuts. If you two want to fight then fine do it but don't bring a whole ass country into it. What the fuck? Why would i fight for that old fucker and those ungratful fucks!! I don't give a fuck! Why would i fight you? Search someone else to fight not me thank you very much."
He shake his hands like to disperse the thought of it. Take a sip of his wine continuing his frantic pacing
"Talking about fight between us. We can't fight you and me, i'm your horcrux you dimwit. That night when you died a part of your instable soul tied up with mine. And a free advice, you shouldn’t let them everywhere, i found one in Grimmauld and two other in Hogwards.
But whatever, It not what it important right now! I can't get married because of you Bastard! I had everything planned and i just found the perfect candidate but with your soul attached to mine i can't get a proper wizard weeding. OH MY MERLIN YOU RUINED MY LIFE! If words goes out nobody would accept a courtship with me."
He stop pacing, look right at the orb eyes shining with unsheard tears
" Oh Morgana my honor has been corrupted ! YOU HAVE TO TAKE RESPONSABILITY FOR IT!
Nobody can know! I would have to live in shame the rest of my live. My futur children would be pariat ! Oh Mother Moon what do i do ?
You have to take responsability before people know that i have been deflower by the Dark Lord. My live at a housewife is ruined! I have go move to Siberia where no one know me..." The green eyes teen start to cry muttering about his purity when the memory stop.

Flabbergasted by the message the hall was silent.
The Dark Lord and Potter were soul-tied? A housewife? Siberia?
Severus put his face in his hand, wavering between cry or laugh. He sighed resoluted, Potter had choose his side, so mote it be.

"My Lord, i would like to make my report right now. It is about Potter and his futur plan."
Severus was tired between Albus, the Dark Lord and Potter. He don't know what to do anymore.
Voldemort nodded.
"Well, as you now know, the boy do not want to fight. His career counseling was in two time.
The first with the staff and the Headmaster were he didn’t talk at all. The second was with me in private.
He do not want to fight for Dumbledore, even tell the Order members to found new hobbies.
He want the be a traditional housewife, with a husband and childrens. I advices him to go to Gringots, he is emancipated after last year Tournament so all his projects were made in secret without the help of Lord Black even if he is his Heir. I know that he search for a suitable candidate in the wizarding and the muggles world, but i do not know who is the candidate he select."
Severus finish looking at the surprise faces around him.
He totaly understand it was hard to believe that the Boy-who-live want to be a housewife.
"Good, since the boy is one of my horcruxes i can't let him close to Dumbledore. Severus arrange for a meeting made him choose the place that way he would be at ease to talk, remind him to bring the horcruxes with him.
Narcissa, Lucius arranged a meeting with Lord Black here for after, coordinate with Severus. I will meet the two separated at first.
You are dismissed."

If it was this simple to win this war then he will do it and "take responsability". It was true after all a wizard weeding is to bound two souls together so either of them could do it with anyone else. He understand better now why the horcrux ritual fail with Nagini. Magic had judge it like a second mariage without his "first wife" permission.
Voldemort had not think of politics marriage but if His little horcrux want to play house in exchange of not fighting a war then why not.

After all i take care of what is mine.
