A ROCKSTAR SEER ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
kerry colt was born with an attitude. (the author would also like to say that miss colt is serious damage for the united kingdom society, but can’t legally speak about it)
her parents knew she was going to be trouble after her first rebellious act: her birth. something bad always seemed to happen during baby showers, like her friends told her, but mrs colt planned everything to the little detail. nothing out of the ordinary would have happened. her and her husband moved to london not so long time ago, and for that special day, they invited their families alongside their favourite colleagues and friends. it was a strangely, unexpected sunny day, too warm to even be october. their firstborn was due in two months, and mr colt was talking with the potters who welcomed a little boy some months ago.
the people were talking, the food was spectacular (of course it was. they were italians) until, mrs colt felt something strange . . . or more like, she felt her daughter deciding to not listen to what the doctors told to her and her husband. she wanted to go out. more like, she was going out of her. ironic how even in a family full of seers, no one could have predicted that.
24th october 1960. mid autumn. kerry magnolia colt was a name cited in every magazine; the official heir of the colt dynasty. will she take the clairvoyant powers of her mother’s family? will she be able to honour her own surname?
spoiler alert: no (by her family) and yes (by the public). her dad’s side of the family doesn’t despise her, it’s more of a ‘why-i-didn’t-think-of-this’ kind of hate . . . and this is what happens when a nepo baby has clairvoyant powers thanks to the other side of her family.
. . . house of colt is known for their expertise in alchemy, a revered magical discipline in italy tied to the country's rich history of scholars like leonardo da vinci he was a wizard, yes. they perfected the art of transmutation, potion-making ( which is a tragedy, for kerry. she doesn’t even know how to cook ) and magical metallurgy; creating powerful elixirs, enchanted metals, and rare substances that only they can produce. the colts also had deep ties to italy's magical history, acting as the keepers of ancient secrets linked to the country’s mystical past. the roman empire wouldn’t be a thing without the colts, but this is something that so many people still can’t accept today. the colt family safe guarded ancient latin spells, artifacts, and relics; making them both feared and respected for the power they wield. and at the centre of conspiracy theories, but the family will never be caught talking about those in public. house of colt is a family of diplomats and powerful political figures in the wizarding world; with deep ties to international wizarding governments, a century-long hate feud with so many pureblood families (skoerzey&lipazi&coccotti i am looking at you) and also known for their ability to broke alliances, influence laws, and act as ambassadors between the magical and muggle politics of the EU. they reach extends globally, making them untouchable in terms of influence. and this is something kerry knows very well.
she had her first prophetic dream when she was very young, and since that day she looked like she knew something that everyone else didn’t, as if the universe itself was whispering secrets to her all the time. it was spooky, and at the same time, interesting to watch. kerry could compete against dumbledore in a ‘who is more disconnected with reality’ contest and no one would bat an eye if she won. fascinated by death, astrology, tarots and gothic architecture, you could see her with her grandfather, a very acclaimed historian, avidly listening to stories of ancient times philosophers, poetry about death and love, the medieval way to read stars, and everything that morgana le fay (kerry’s favourite historical figure, controversially) did. the things she knew shaped her, made her change overtime, made her evolve.
imaginative. playful. idealistic. unusual. unpredictable. witty. intelligent. energetic. (not to brag) mysterious. those are all terms used to describe her. but, not many know that her favourite colour is cherry red (not black, like everyone assumes) or that she loves lying on the floor, jokes that a six years old would make, heart-shaped sunglasses, the muggle rock music, arthurian novels, and the muggle book frankenstein. or that she, with all of her heart, hates quidditch, the snow, certain type of sweaters, and slow walkers.
after meeting her, seeing the people she surrounds herself with would make you roll your eyes and say out loud of course she is friends with them. kerry chooses her friends like she chooses to believe which prophetic dream will happen in thousands of future outcomes. because, of course this unpredictable young girl is soul mates with walking hurricanes.
yes, james and hazel ( @angellane444 ) are going to teach her everything about pranks. going into chaotic situations constantly and with random quests are just part of their daily routines, think about pippi longstock and her two friends…yeah…. their parents are always worried every time the three of them meet. but that’s another story. and no, kerry and emma ( @hrrtshape ) are not going to accidentally buy a small country…..and start some heated family feud….. because they were bored and wanted to see their ‘what if’ come to live. i hope.
and the moment that kerry and her friends were waiting for all their life? hogwarts. it was about to come. they received their letters (and kerry’s parents made her start the same year of her friends!!) on their fourteenth birthday, and miss colt couldn’t be more excited to finally buy her wand. what house she will be sorted in? it feels pretty obvious. daring, passionate about everything, has a strong will, fiercely loyal (so loyal that it became a negative traits of her). kerry colt is going to be a gryffindor. she just hopes that she is not going to get lost in the immense castle (she will) or get too many detentions (she will) and that she will make many friends (she will! enemies too…… mmmmmhmhm).
about her haters ……. spicy. soulful. inevitable. the classic ‘i saw you in my dreams before meeting you’ trope. you can call it divine timing, soul memory, poetry; i’ll call it yearning until your cells are begging you to abandon the resentment and dive in the carnal desire. kerry colt is a scorpio sun, moon, mars and libra rising. regulus black is a capricorn sun, cancer moon, leo rising. kerry may not know how to cook, but the universe did it for her.
the universe was giggling while the two of them had dreams about their future as a couple very much in love since they were kids. even without seeing each other’s faces, the two of them understood that what they dreamed about was their future spouse. kerry blamed it on her seer abilities, regulus had no idea what to do with that information. yes….. they saw the ring on their finger. yes, they heard their future selves laughing together and then woke up sweating in the cold of the night. yes, they couldn’t wait to meet the other. and then, the personification of the universe wanted to bang its head on a star when the two of them started to hate each other.
a classic. the italian and the french hate each other. he is too posh, she is too wild. he always seemed to look like he was better than anyone around him, and this always pissed her off because she doesn’t like pretentious people. and (!!!) sirius black, his brother, her new friend, always talked badly about him so, as the good friend she is, she continued to dislike him. and never…never!!! wanted to persue any kind of relationship with him. until……….. fifth year. all it took is an history of magic project and forced proximity. they are now nineteen and more mature, i hope. parties, masquerade balls, glances in classes. she is going to rant to her friends how ‘that assholes looks at me too much in class, what’s wrong with him??’ and he is just going to flirt with her while fighting. (leo rising is showing)
the life, mistakes, sins and almost deaths of kerry colt are too long to say in a tumblr post. she has the craziest attitude and this is what is, mainly, keeping her alive no matter the situation.
