Wilde_Guess Posted January 23, 2018 Report Posted January 23, 2018 In canon, Petunia and Lily were the only two sisters. What if they were only the youngest two? Instead of Aunt Petunia, he goes to live with his Aunt Hyacinth Bucket which she pronounces ‘Bouquet,’ thank you very much. Rules: All Waltons become Evanses. “Daddy” is still senile and widdowed, which is why Harry couldn’t stay with him. All of Harry’s aunts and uncles will appear in the story, including Petunia and Vernon. Sheridan Bucket is born in July of 1980, and is a muggle-born wizard who will attend Hogwarts with Harry. He and Harry will not be spoiled or abused. They will get along with each other at least as well as normal siblings. They will get far more guidance from Richard Bucket than from Hyacinth. Hyacinth likes magic and loathes Petunia, despite Petunia’s being married to a Managing Director of a largish company as in canon. Hyacinth knows Snape, and loathes him ‘now’ even more than Petunia. She was previously indifferent to him, and accepts that Snape’s feelings for Lily were genuine. Harry grows up knowing some things about the Wizarding World, but not others. He knows his birth parents were murdered by magical terrorists, but not that he’s the “Boy Who Lived,” as the biggest example. Richard actually likes gardening with Harry and Sheridan, but only to take a break from Hyacinth for a while, and to show the “Bitch and Bastard Dursleys” what a garden should look like. Hyacinth should, but doesn’t have to maintain “physical intimacy” with Richard, just to give him a break. Any rating is good, but no crack romantic or erotic pairings, such as Harry/any Death Eater, bigot, or adult. Non-crack but non-canon pairings, including Harry/Sheridan or Harry/Sheridan/Ron, or Hermione/Ginny, etc are fine. Can anyone out there help Harry in “Keeping Up Appearances?” Quote
