Chapter Text
“This isn’t what I signed up for” Jamie thought to herself when she was suddenly transported in a room filled with people who were supposed to be dead or long gone.
She stared at her sister Cordelia or well “Cori” as she liked to call her laughing with whom she supposed were her parents. They actually did look like her parents and she can see where everyone called her a James Potter lookalike with his dark skin messy hair and her mothers green eyes.
Cordelia got her mom’s pale skin red hair and dad’s hazel eyes.
Jamie wanted to groan really loudly because she was having a good day. She managed to finish an essay for Snape and was making headways through the assignment Mcgonagall assigned. Jamie was busy goshdarnit and this, whatever it was, wasn't helping.
No one seemed to notice which was fair because she was hidden in one of the dark crevices and a piece of paper slowly fluttered down silently in her outstretched hand.
Jamie skimmed the sheet and it basically was saying that they were reading books about her sister's life in order to defeat voldemort.
“Well that’s fine and dandy but why drag me into this?” She questioned unamused
Another paper fell down, “Because your her sister”
“Thank you mind reading weirdo” She snarked in her head
No other piece of paper came down.
“Time to introduce to myself” Jamies sighed
She stepped out from her safe corner and she spoke out loud, “Hey guys what’re we doing here having a party without me?”
Before Jaime was able to say another word Cori shrieked, “JAIME” and ran towards her grabbing Jaimie into a grappling hug.
She giggled, “Hey cori what’s going on”
Cori’s head dug in her neck while she mumbled, “There is way to much going on and I missed you the entire time but every time i tried to say something about you something wouldn’t let me”
Jamie snicked, “Aww ya miss me”
Cori snorted, “Oh shut up and hug me”
After two minutes both pulled apart and Cori took Jamie by her hand, “Let me introduce you to mom and dad”
Jaimie wrinkled her nose, “A sentence I thought I’d never hear ever”
Cori laughed, “Our lives are so weird”
Jaimie found all of this fascinating and wasn’t really jealous that Cori met mom and dad for a longer time than she did. Jaimie made peace with the fact that they were dead ages ago and didn’t see the point in rehashing fainted memories that she’s heard of from other people.
Jamie unloosened her slytherin green tie since it was pinching off everything she could breath as her sister chatted for the whole two minute walk it took to reach her parents.
Once Jaimie was standing in front of them she looked at them keenly and pointed out the similarities and differences that she did have with them. It was weird to look at the male version of herself with shorter messier hair and different colored eyes. It was like looking in to those weird funhouse mirrors and expecting something else to come out.
Jaimie awkwardly waved, “Hi i’m jaime your daughter”
Her parents stood up quickly and smiled, “Hi we’re your parents but we already knew that”
Jaimie snorted, “So we both suck at introductions, love that”
Jaimie swept her eyes around the room and mentioned outloud because filters don’t exist for her, “Oh lookie theres our dead godfather and his dead brother and our dead grandparent must be a death day party or something because wow”
Cori snickered, “That’s a long story like really long but in essence were reading about our life or well my life basically too help the future”
Jaimie slowly nodded her head, “uh cool cool cool that’s not the weirdest thing i’ve seen, heard or do”
Regulus and Sirius came up to her while Jaimie looked at them shrewdly, she didn’t really know sirius since well he was focused more on her sister and his relationship with lupin. Nobody really focused on Jaimie because her sister was the girl-who-lived. And well Regulus was just a stranger to her so there wasn’t much she could say about him.
“Hi” Jaimie said unamused
Before they can say anything Jaimie interrupted them, “I know who you guys are so let’s not with the awkward introductions thanks”
Jaimie turned back to her sister but she noticed her head of house Severus Snape there and felt her lips curl in distaste. Jaimie disliked Severus Snape with a passion because of how he treated her and her sister so she didn’t even want to be near him for any reason.
“Soooo what part we at right” Jamie asked
“Oh so we basically finished the first book and we're gonna start the second book soon” Cori answered
Jamie nodded, “So does that mean they know about–”
Cori cut her off, “Yep but not the whole bit”
Jaimie shrugged, “Well they’ll find out the whole bit soon”
Cori pouted, “There already so overprotective and you don’t show up a lot in the first book which is totally not fair since i’m the one getting reamed in about first year”
At this point the twins were sitting on a separate couch away from everyone
Jamie shrugged, “Don’t do dumb shit and you won’t get reamed but that’s old news since we’re like what 16 a year before out majority’
Cori grinned,”I missed your arguing nature so much”
Jaimie huffed, “I won’t argue if what there saying makes sense like cmon lets not”
Cori emphatically nodded, “I know but mum and dad have been on my arse as well as everyone else about the things that I did like i’m sorry that I couldn’t trust the so called trusted adults to help me like–”
Jamie continued, “were not fucking babies, we’re orphaned teenagers trying our best with all the shit shoveled onto us”
Cori sighed, “I’m just sick of it y’know like i get the shit that I did was dangerous but sometimes it’s the only choice I had and they have to respect it”
Jaimie tugged Cori into a hug while whispering in her ear, “Well fuck them because I always got you”
Cori smiled, “Twin power”
Jaime resolutely nodded, “Damn right, and no dead fucks can take that away from us”
Cori snickered, “I can’t wait for them to react to your language since apparently there very much into corporal–”
Jaimie eyes flashed with her hair crackling with hidden power, “Did they touch you”
“Jaime–”
“Did. They. Touch. You”
Cori shook her head, “They threatened too”
Jaime huffed, “I want to see them try like I really want them to test me”
Cori looked her directly in her eyes, “I’m just happy you're here”
Jaime laughed, “Me to”
“Before we go, what time did they pull you from” Cor asked
Jaime thought for a moment, “Well it’s my sixth year so sirius is dead”
Cori nodded, “Basically a similar time too mine”
“Alright lets go meet everyone else”
The twins stood and made there way too where everyone else was. Jaime surveyed the room an noticed the weasleys as well as some other families and what not. SHe assumed that they were an important part of the future and had to be here. Jaimie didn’t like her and her sisters private life in the eyes of everyone else but potter luck sucked.
She noticed that her parents were walking towards her.
James nodded to her, “I’ve noticed that you go by the name Jaime and not–”
Jaimie cut him off, “I didn’t really like the name Camelia because of some of the negative connotations that were attached in my childhood so I just decided to go by middle name Jaimie and kept it like that”
At that point Cori joined the conversation, “Yeah nobody calls her Camelia except her boyfriend and me when she’s in BIGGGG trouble”
Jaimie giggled, “Oh hush Cordelia”
Cori jokingly stuck her tongue out
Lily asked, “Can I know why you don’t use Camelia the name me and your father picked out for you?”
Cori raised her eyebrows like, “Is this bitch serious”
Jamie looked at Lily amused, “what part of negative connotations did you not understand?”
James butted in, “Don’t speak to your mother that way”
Now Jaimie was really confused because no way were these strangers trying to parent her but she didn’t take shit from anyone and definetly her supposed parents as much as they tried to impose something on her and her sister.
“Excuse me” Jaime said starkly
“ I wasn’t going to say anything until after some of the readings but you know what I’ll make some time now”
James tried to but in and say something but Jaimie put an arm up with her eyes flashing, “Don’t treat me like a 4 year old first of all and second of all I know jack about both of you so your not in any place to act as a parental figure to me”
Jamie continued, “in my current timeline James and Lily Potter are dead and they didn’t raise me so when I imply none of your business I mean none of your business, the same thing also applies to my sister”
At this point everyone was looking at them while James face turned an angry shade of red and at this point Sirius joined them. Before Sirius could say anything Jaime turned to him to, “zip it”
A piece of paper fell down from the ceiling which said, “Must you?”
Jaimie just sighed, “don’t try me”
