Oh my god I just realized that Adara Lestrange and Neville Longbottom shared a cart on the way to Hogwarts. Did they even realize it?

Wouldn't of surprised me if Neville was trying to work up the courage to punch her in the face. Wizards seem old fashioned and stuff. Blood feuds would not surprise me.
It'd be funny if they had no idea and had a decent conversation and had a burgeoning friendship though. Then the sorting and hilarity!
[X] Apathy
I'm not suggesting a crush I mean it feels either really cold or disconnected to not be really aware of the elephant in the room. Unless the issue was already addressed in backstory or something. I just expected that being Bellatrix's daughter would have more of a bearing on things.
(And does it mean anything that Draco is 'Draco Malfoy'? Has Narcissa cut ties or what?)
I meant that he is pathetic as a threat too so the PC would pay him no mind.

It just means that Narcissa married a Malfoy, hence Draco has that surname, and Bellatrix married a Lestrange, hence we have that surname. The children usually take the father's name.

[X] Apathy, you've got more important things to care about. Like who stole your fucking Pheonix!

"Most people seem starstruck by him, but Draco Malfoy's clearly harboring a grudge against him already. Politics."
I'd expect something more familiar from Adara's viewpoint if she knew him well. Like "but cousin Draco is already harboring a grudge against him. Typical."

who the hell talks that way?
real people don't narrate their thoughts as if to an audience. just "draco" is perfectly fine way to think of your cousin.

Yeah, but she went the full mile and called him 'Draco Malfoy'. That's kind of weird, maybe.

ill concede that point. should have just gone with "draco"
[X] You have the hugest fangirl crush on him.
As someone highly associated with dark magic, that's actually more scary. At least a super-powerful person probably isn't going to outright hunt you down.
Or maybe it is simply a cultural thing It certainly seems widely accepted in the Wizarding World that a person with sufficient social power (monetary, governmental or popular) can do as they please.
Adara was almost certainly taught a series of events at an age too young to question. Even if she later doubted the veracity of common accounts, it seems beyond belief that the authorities of the time would falsely accredit the surviving infant with the triumph and not train that infant up to be a dark wizard slayer par excellence.

Bellatrix seemed to adore the Dark Lord more for his power than his cause. Maybe Adara has the same taste in authority.

If she does believe this she will be very surprised when she finds out about the Dursleys.
Who wouldn't be surprised?
The infant slayer of the Dark Lord being abandoned to abusive muggles by the people who most benefitted from his feat and who were closest to his parents... It sounds like the wild imagining of a dyed-in-the-wool anti-authoritarian sceptic.

@Ekans Ekans Ekans just to be clear here, are you ok with the write in vote being "You have the hugest fangirl crush on him."?
Ekans woulda been fine with being a goblin attempting to overthrow the wizarding world from the inside.

That sounds cool actually. Sort of wish we picked that now.
