Harry Potter But AU??? - Chapter 194
HARRY’S POV
After the afternoon classes were done Harry went back to the ROR just in time to meet with Luna, something he has been impatient for, as he needed to talk about the affects of the ritual.
“So…what didn’t you want to say near the Greengrass about the side affects of the ritual?” He asked, Nagini sitting near, listening as well.
“Well…” Luna said, looking as Nagini as if she doesn’t want to say anything near her to which Harry quickly reassured her.
“Don’t worry, we had made an unbreakable oath yesterday that she can’t use anything she learns from us against us nor can she tell anyone.”
Hearing that, Luna seemed relieved.
“Well, Nagini’s aura seems to gain your colors.”
“What exactly do you mean?” Harry asked. “She gained some purple? Yellow? Blue?”
“No, so you remember how I told you your aura, when Occlumency shields aren’t present, is constantly changing?” He nodded at that understanding filled his eyes. “Her aura’s colors reflect on yours.”
“What could it mean?” Nagini asked, not mentioning anything about the all aura seeing thing, though he was sure she will have questions later.
“I don’t know!” Luna said “Auras usually show people’s deep emotions, with Harry being the exception as it shows all his emotions. It shouldn’t be possible to be shared between people, at least I have never saw two people share them.”
“Not even the twins?” Harry asked, to which she shook her head.
“No, the twin’s bond is more like primitive version of our magic earrings, they can send thoughts and emotions through them, but only on the short distance.”
“While in this situation it is only emotions.” Harry said in thoughts before turning to Nagini. “Do you know what I feel right now?” Nagini shook her head at that.
“So it’s not empathy, at least not conscious one. How do you feel right now?”
“I’m still happy to have my human body again, though I fear what could the consequences be.” Nagini answered truthfully.
“So not subconscious empathy either.” Luna hummed in thought, clearly seeing the colors of Harry’s aura in whatever color curiosity is.
Harry tried to think what kind of magic he read about that connect two people together, whether it’s in the books of this world or the fanfictions of the other.
It was clearly a type of magic that affected her spiritual world, or as many call it, her soul.
It’s current known side affects are Nagini’s need to be close to him and her aura mirroring his.
Could it be a magical soul bond?
He knew those things are real, if only because after understanding how people’s belief affects the spiritual world, but those things take time to be created, as the relationship You are in makes you create them by unconsciously tapping into your magic.
It is the reason why most magical people have only one serious relationship.
But those type of bonds create an affect on both sides of the relationship, not to mention Luna said she never saw this kind of affect in another human being.
‘Another human being!’
Harry’s eyes opened wild when he thought an idea popped in his head.

“Luna! You said you never saw this thing on another person, did you see it on animals?” His eccentric friend thought for a little bit before saying with her dreamy eyes gone as she understood “Yes, I saw it in people’s pets.”
“Did you just called me a pet?” Nagini asked enraged.
“Calm down!” Harry said, and he could see his words affecting her. “She didn’t mean it like that, she meant familiar.”
Those words do nothing to calm Nagini, though it did seem harder for her to get angry.
“I’m a human being.” She hissed “I can’t be a familiar!”
“That is interesting.” Harry said “You were born to a human parents, and you do have the mind of a human, but your original body is snake, and you spent years in that form with even your spiritual body taking that shape, with all of that, can you honestly tell me you aren’t a snake at all?”
Nagini said nothing, instead she gave glares to Harry and Luna, with the glares at Harry being somewhat weaker.
“The problem is that this familiar bond, with lack of better terms, is related to your animagus form, and if I were to make any ritual to extract my magical energy from you it can unravel your human form at best, and at worst your mind, isn’t that correct Luna?”
Luna gave a grave nod.
“Yes, the colors don’t look like a ‘familiar bond’ at the start of it, but more like in the middle when they are inseparable, if I remember correctly from a book I read, it is when the bond reaches its advanced stage when the familiar starts to be able to predict its owner’s needs.”
“I don’t have an owner!” Nagini said venomously.
“I didn’t say you did.” Luna said with hands up in surrender. “Only explained what happens in a familiar bond according to the books I read.”
“Well, this ain’t it! I just got my humanity back, I’m not becoming a familiar to anyone.”
“You don’t seem to have a choice in it!”
While they argued, Harry had GAI read him quickly everything they had about the ‘familiar bond’, and found a way to father validate their hypothesis- in the beginning stage of the bond you need to keep your familiar close to you as to let the bond deepen, yet in the middle stage of the bond the familiar seems to cling onto you as much as possible, it is only in the late stages that the need to be close lessens, though it will never disappear.
“Well, whether it’s familiar bond or something else, right now we need to decide what’s going to happen to you Nagini.” He said.
“What do you mean? We agreed I will stay with you.” Nagini said.
“Yes, but with the exception of meeting for experiments and check ups, I don’t seem to see a need for you to be here all the time instead of letting you have your fun in the world.”
“But I can’t leave you for longer then a few hours, we tried that!” Nagini said, clearly distressed.
“We can try letting you little by little grow used to more and more time without me.” Harry said.
“No! I can’t!” She said shaking her head “I will spend my time here as a human and outside as a snake next to you!.”
“But don’t you want your freedom?” Harry asked, now almost certain the ritual created a familiar bond.
“Freedom is to decide things on my own, and I am not willing to leave your side and suffer the discomfort it brings, as for the owner and familiar shit? I don’t believe that’s the thing that happen here.”
Harry could see Luna frown at that, looking displeased with the outcome, but unwilling to say something about it.
“Well then, until we have a way to undo the discomfort, the only thing we can do is continue with our life.”
At the two nods he changed the subject.
“So Luna, does you finish homework?”
