Turns out, magic is an offshoot of flames that is thought to have died out, a long, long time ago. To normal people, of course. The higher ups of Vongola still know about it, as do the Acrobaleno, Millefiore, Shimon, etc. Thus, Reborn is given the task of giving the Tenth Generation a crash course in magic. But of course, since this is Reborn, he decides to go all out and introduce the Tenth Generation as Hogwarts transferees. And if he gets dame-Tsuna to take out âLordâ Voldemort while heâs at it? Even better, cause now the wizards would have to owe Vongola a debt!
Point #1: Reborn waltzes in as the new DADA professor. Obviously, since this is Reborn, he has a degree in that too, and a brief stint in Auror-life as well.
(needless to say, he is very, very famous)
Hogwarts students were in awe, but after their first class theyâre now all terrified.
Mcgonagall is forever baffled. Leon changes into objects without spells? Wandless magic??? And how do muggle guns work in Hogwarts anyways?
Snape finds a new frenemy. They bond trading insults/barbs while coming up with new ones for their stupid students.Â
Point #2: The Guardians are sorted into the different houses (not that something like houses would keep the Guardians from their precious skyâs side).
Yamamoto is sorted into Gryffindor. He makes a terrifying Beater. The Gryffindor Quidditch team is overjoyed.
Gokudera is sorted into Ravenclaw. The Sorting Hat was very bemused when he heard a variety of threats of âput me with Tenth or else Iâll-â. Though to be honest, âdisintegrate you with Storm Flamesâ is a pretty unique threat.
Ryohei is sorted into Gryffindor TO THE EXTREME. Many Gryffindor students are looking into silencer spells.
Chrome is sorted into Hufflepuff. Mukuro was slightly surprised that he didnât corrupt her enough to be sorted into Slytherin yet.
Hibari and Mukuro are both sorted into Slytherin. Draco eyes them contemplatively when both boys decided to sit as far away from each other as possible. He could use new lackies ⊠(er, good luck with that, Draco)
Point #3: And then we come to our dear cinnamon roll. Tsuna, despite surviving for x amount of years with Reborn, trembles noticeably as he walks up to the Sorting Hat. He barely keeps himself from tripping out of nerves (Reborn would shoot him if he did), and sits down fretfully.
The Golden Trio takes one look at the fluffy boy and thinks Hufflepuff. Or maybe Gryffindor if he had some inner, inner, very inner leadership skills.
Draco and his gang takes one look at the bowed head and trembling hands and thinks Hufflepuff for sure.
So does Snape. And Mcgonagall. Professor Sprout is already making plans on how to mother the cute dear.
The Sorting Hat straightens, and yells âŠâSLYTHERIN!â
Reborn smirks.
âWhat?â Harry asks.
âWHAT.â Dracoâs mouth drops open. Snape twitches as everyone stares in disbelief. Tsuna trembles more (Reborn was smirking! Smirking! Something bad was going to happen to him!) and trips twice on his way to his table. Hibari grudgingly makes his way to Mukuro so they could welcome their Sky.
Reborn is very happy with this development. One, it meant that he was rubbing off on Tsuna! Two, his dame-student was now situated with his two strongest guardians; Reborn didnât have to squirrel Tsuna away to his private room for protection any more.
Point #4: Tsuna is unwillingly dragged into Magic shenanigans.
Philosopherâs Stone: Troll? Eat dynamite! And Tsunaâs XX-burner! (Tsuna learns a spell to reverse damage that year when he and Gokudera blows up/burns the girlâs bathroom. He iS SO HAPPY)
Chamber of Secrets: Sweet, sweet Chrome is petrified and Tsuna is pissed. Tom Riddleâs ghost thing? Yeah, youâre just a figment of time whoâs gonna go down.
PoA: Dementors do not effect Tsuna. At all. Why? Cuz they are ripping of Tsunaâs Zero Point Breakthrough.
Goblet of Fire: HAHAHA GUESS WHO GOT PICKED. HAHAHA THREE GUESSES. If your first two isnât ‘Tsunaâ, then it doesnât count. On the other hand, Tsuna is in the lead by a lot. He sees the dragon and unleashes Natsu. Byakuranâs dragon was scarier after all. Gokudera is the one who goes skinnydipping in the river, and once again Tsuna is Not. Happy. He manages to get his friend out by freezing the whole lake, except for his friend and the other captured people (judges donât know if this is cheating since heâs helping the other contestants? Who freezes an entire lake???). In the third task, it is Tsuna who reaches the cup first (Hyper Intuition leading him but also trying to warn him of something. what) so cue meeting with evil Voldemort. Tsuna is just, done. (âWhy canât you dead people just stay dead? akjahfkdjahâ)
Order of Phoenix: Tsuna gets into Umbridgeâs detention with Harry. Afterwards, his Guardians come together to plot how to kill the toad woman slowly for making Tsuna bleed.
Half Blood Prince: The KHR gang gets Moretti to help fake Dumbledoreâs death. All is well.
Deathly Hallows: Tsuna is so, so done. He has to deal with rainbow flames and baby curses and immortals, why does he have to deal with a creepy dead dude without a nose who wants to become a Kawahira? One Kawahira is enough for the world, thank you! Voldemort stood no chance. After all, he wasnât an OP Daemon Spade. And really, Killing Curses are green and slow. Much easier to avoid than Rebornâs shooting.
Point #5: other extra notes
Draco is booted from his Seeker position because of Tsuna. To everyoneâs eternal surprise, the boy is a natural flyer (Mukuro: *dryly* Oh, I wonder why.) who isnât afraid of doing very dangerous-looking stunts. Tsuna just wants to get the flying gold thing, because he swears Reborn has a gun pointed at him and he really doesnât want to be shot that day, please.
To Snapeâs pleasant (?) surprise, Tsuna is actually really good at Potions (itâs because Tsuna learned cooking from Nana shhh).
The Gryffindor Quidditch team is forever exasperated because Yamamoto would never try and hit Slytherinâs new Seeker. The only way it would happen is if he does it by accident (but it still has Gokudera screaming his head off)
Gokudera is in UMA heaven. Werewolfs! Centaurs! Ghosts! He stalks Headless Nick and Lupin for a week.
Draco tries picking on Tsuna once with his lackies, but is immediately, uh, deterred when he got a tonfa to the eye and a trident to his gut.
Cue WTF moment for Voldemort when Tsuna faces him with, not his wand, but a pair of mittens.
Actually, cue WTF moment for everyone the first time they see the cute and fluffy Tsuna fight.
Ron was convinced that the Sorting Hat made a mistake sorting Tsuna, and that the tuna should have been sorted into Hufflepuff. Until Tsuna punches the troll in the face and sends the guy flying and crumbling two walls.
Reborn has a lot of fun torturing his students. Tsuna is instantly admired when they found out that the poor boy had been tutored by Reborn for years.
âNo, Reborn! Donât bring Harry and his friends into the Mafia! I donât need backup Guardians, ohmygod.â
Hahahaha ⊠this turned into a long thing. Iâve always wanted to write this, but Iâve already got too much ongoing stories on my plate. Slytherin!Tsuna is a guilty pleasure of mine, because, well, he is a Mafia boss. Slytherins are âseeking individual greatness – but Slytherins look out for their own group and see themselves as much more unified than Ravenclaws or Gryffindors.â They are also cunning leaders, and I believe this suits Tsuna in a way. We especially see it in TYL!Tsuna, who plans such a big hoist. Although Tsuna is one to jump to his friendâs aid (loyal like Gryffindor/Hufflepuff), he does not seek for glory or fame. And after a few years in the Mafia know and tutored by Reborn, I believe his sense for fairness will also diminish. After all, he works with Mafia, these people are never fair and if he has to be unfair to keep his friends safe, I believe Tsuna would do it. Tsuna can also be described a a Hufflepuff, family oriented, but he is/will be a leader and that will not change. Students are sorted by the Sorting Hat to houses where it thinks they will prosper, and being sorted into Slytherin would definitely help. And honestly, I donât believe that Reborn didnât rub off on Tsuna at all. He must have. Plus, I really want to see the reactions of the whole of Hogwarts when they realize, cute, mousey Tsuna is a Slytherin.
Iâm not sure if Tsuna would stay for the whole 8 years. If they do, then perhaps time runs differently for them? Reborn probably wonât be the DADA professor for all the years too.
I submitted this at the KHR AU blog but they havenât posted it yet, so I hope I can submit it at my own blog too. Feel free to use this idea, but please show it to me/credit!
I need the fic. I need more expansion on Slytherin!Tsuna. Please. My family is starving.
âI have a friend,â Astounding, through the clinking and scraping of plates, an extra helping of carrot so seemingly fond. âHe looks a little odd though, I donât really wanna hurt his feelings though so I try really hard.â
Perhaps the finest news for Nana. At eight, every child should have at least one or two companions. He will have plenty of friends to depend on in time, Nana doesnât doubt. One is progress after all.
âOh? Well itâs kind to be accepting of others.â
Tsuna talks through a mouthful of chicken, âyeah and heâs really tall! Super duper tall. I like his hat too,â
Quietly passes him a napkin, amused and yet excited herself. âDo you intend to bring him over to play sometime, love?â Knows heâs never enjoyed her friends being the only guests, always inclined to pinch his cheeks or give him a hard candy that he absolutely despised not that it was intended.
Tsuna needs a friend his own age after all.
His eyes are shining so bright they may become light of their own. âWill I! I canât wait for you to meet Reborn!â
A peculiar name. But not uncommon.
Nana forgets after dinner and doesnât remember until the next afternoon. Laying out an after school snack something nags at her not to forget an extra plate.
Despite still foggy memory on the reason why, itâs set.
And then the tiny knock as every afternoon, and she really should get him some sort of key. On a necklace he canât lose preferably.
The usual arms around her neck for a welcome home hug, only differentâŠ..
Off kilter, the room is wildly off kilter and there are legs, only two but they arenât legs of a child. Not Tsunaâs little friend. Long, lanky, oddly bent.
âTsunaâŠâŠwhat is- who is that.â
Arms unwind as fast as they can in his excitement to introduce this person he clearly knows, Nana can feel her heart beating so fast she almost yanks him back. Into her arms. Into protection.
Indeed tall. Taller than anyone sheâs met. Off.
Oh, the head, ducking into their home. All she can see is a veil of ugliness. And though sheâs tried so very hard as far back as she can remember never to judge a soul based on appearance, the second this⊠bird headed man tipped his fedora at her and opened his beak revealing tiny rows of sharp teeth followed by a deep âgood afternoon.â
She screamed.
Clutching the edge of the table until her knuckles were white. Nana screamed and screamed, not able to hear anything over the sound of her own terror.
Tsuna managed to scream louder on the third try, âYOUâRE BEING RUDE TO HIM!â
For some reason this stopped her mid-scream, her mouth closed and eyes shift to her son, huffing. Tsuna is clearly upset but not for the reason he should be but because of her being seemingly unpleasant.
âMama, he said hello. You shouldnât screamâŠ.â
ShouldnâtâŠ.screamâŠ.. Nana stares at him incredulous.
âTsu, he has a birdâs head.â
âSo?â Protectively grabs Rebornâs hand much to the bird manâs interest. âPeople canât help it. âCause he was born that way.â
A sound argument. In light of things, too accepting. Her son is perfectly normal while she can only cower on tile.
âI apologize for the fright, Mama. Iâve hardly introduced myself. My name is Reborn.â
Nanaâs eyes shift to Reborn, mouth opening and closing soundlessly floundering for words. Finally, âhelloâ is all that can really escape. Though a whisper.
He had called her Mama. ReallyâŠ.incredible.
She wanted to cry. Scream. Ask her son if he was out of his young little mind bringing something so evil into their home.
Yet she didnât. Watching Tsuna invite him into a seat and pass him a juice box he surely couldnât drink yet attempted to anyhow, Nana could only bring herself to let him stay.
Sheâs never been drunk before but sheâs so willing to try.
Heâs clearly a manifestation of evil sitting at her kitchen table drinking apple juice with his beak and a cheap straw. Sitting straight, impeccably mannered as he leans over insisting that Tsuna adjust his own crooked collar that way since the swings or someone will mistake him for an incredibly rude little boy instead of a nice one.
Tsuna needs his own friends.
Be it a creature of darkness or not. Sheâll learn to set out extra snacks from now on.
