Damnant quod non intellegunt

Title: Wand and Dagger
Author: batsutousai
Beta: tsuki_no_suzu
Rating: PG-13?
Pairings: undecided, but most likely some form of SLASH
Warnings: OCs, OoC
Summary: The war is coming too quickly for comfort and Harry wonders if it isn't time for him to find a school that will actually teach him what he needs to learn to defeat Voldemort.

Disclaim Her: I spent over an hour trying to find out if the British Monopoly pieces were different from the American pieces. Never did find out for sure, mind, but now I know a lot of random Monopoly trivia.

A/N: This chapter was.... difficult to write. I wanted to build relationships, but they were hard to write. (Perhaps because I am not a social person, myself?)

Also, since everyone seemed confused by this: HOGWARTS HASN'T STARTED YET!
WaD starts a month before Hogwarts.

Summary: The war is coming too quickly for comfort and Harry wonders if it isn't time for him to find a school that will actually teach him what he needs to learn to defeat Voldemort.

Disclaim Her: Yes, John Smith is who you think he is. And I don't own him, he owns himself. (As evidenced by how he managed to write himself into this story.) We're still fighting over whether or not he's allowed a blue police box in his office.

A/N: A few reviewers asked how no one managed to recognize Harry, since there are pictures of him in the Prophet all the time and such, and his black hair and green eyes usually giving him away. The quick answer is that Harry doesn't like pictures, and his picture-self generally avoids staying in the photo if he can, or hiding if he can't. (Please note, at this point in time, these are the only public pictures of Harry. No chocolate frog cards. -wink- ) Also, most people look for the scar, which Harry's disguised – and hidden under the beanie. The same can be said for his hair. Also, while most people – including myself – often make Harry's eyes an unusual shade of green, I don't intend for that to be so in this story. So he just looks like any teen with a muggle beanie, green eyes, and a pair of old glasses. (It also helps, of course, that most people don't expect to see Harry Potter at The Leaky or in Diagon Alley that early in the summer.)
