Harry Potter But AU?

Harry's POV

Harry was a lot of things.

he was a genius that finished four Bachelor degrees and a master degree by the age of 12.

He was a person who worked hard to become the best he can.

He had a master level Occlumency and was apparently the first person in a long time to use true wandless magic.

He was a man on a mission to make his parents murderer pay.

He was the chosen one and the true yet false boy who lived

And more then all, he was a person who had foreknowledge about tens of thousands of different kinds of worlds so similar to this one that in some you wouldn't even see the difference without a closer look.

But if there was one thing he was more then all, something that was craved into his soul was that he is a scientist, and that meant that if something in the world doesn't fit the way you see this world, it means the problem is with you.

Which was why, even after his meeting with the being who took his memories of last life, and gave him this life, even after learning magic and even after knowing the Potters are alive his world was never shakened.

So what is about Luna that after one train ride with her shook him so much?

A few hours before

"Hey, May I sit with you?" The girl who can only be Luna Lovegood asked

"Sure, just answer me this one question as a compensation for not making you go to the first year's lounge" He answered in return, truly curious if she used a diffrent method than the twins 'awareness of what there is and what isn't'

"Oh, let's play truth or bean as a way to get to know each other, it's like truth or dare but every time don't want to answer you have to eat one of the every flavor beans I have, and if you do, you can't be asked the same question again."

As Harry agreed doing it she said she would go first.

"What is your name?"

"Harry Peverell," and deciding to be polite asked in return "what's yours?"

"Luna Lovegood"

they continued asking basic questions about the other person like 'what house is Harry' and 'what house does Luna want to be' for a long time, totally forgetting about the beans as they answered truthfully. Luna telling him about her love for animals while glossing over the animals he knew there wasn't any proof exists which she believed in, and him telling her about his muggle studies at the university level which made her so interested and asked him why was he in Slytherin and not Ravenclaw, to which he answered "I have no idea, at the beginning I wanted to be a Ravenclaw, but after being for a time in Slytherin I am happy to be there. As I see it, the idea of the houses is either an idiotic way to control the students in school by splitting the school to four houses, telling people when they are 11 years old what are they when they themself's don't know, that they are something specific like loyal and hard worker, or brave and just or smart and competitive or ambitious and cunning, you make sure you control the population when they are just children, make sure that they grow exactly as you want them to be and make them act like sheep when they grow up. Or a way to give someone his best shot at success, as by putting someone who is lazy but smart in a house that values hard work would make him better and putting someone with great ambitions in a house that values it and teaches how to make them come true would help him grow." Harry smiled sheepishly

"Sorry I didn't answer the question, but while I value all the four houses the same with maybe a little more preference to the house of the loyal and a little less to the house of the brave, I really don't know why I am a Slytherin.

Why do you want to be a Ravenclaw?"

"Well, after a rant like that," she smiled teasingly. "I would have to think hard what kind of state of mind I want to grow into, as my reasons for wishing to be a Ravenclaw are somewhat childish. I wanted to be a Ravenclaw for two reasons, my parents were in this house and they used to tell me about their time in Hogwarts as a bed time story until my mum died, so it was always a dream of mine to be in that place. As for the second reason, well, it is a way to be closer to my mum...."

"I get it, my parants also died...."

After that there was an awkward silence for a few minutes which Luna broke by telling him about the mythological creatures and conspiracy theories her dad publish and the way to see past the basic reading of the Quibbler and read about the real news the ministry was trying to suppress.

".... when the article said fudge was trying to pass laws that allow the use of imperio on citizens by every law wizard and ministry worker, it actually reference to the article the daily prophet published two weeks ago about the muggle protection law that while has nice ring to it, allows the ministry to raid any house they want when ever they want and take everything they deem dark, with no defenition about what is dark. This is just an example to why while everyone has a subscribe to the daily prophet, all the politicians and smart people has also a subscribe to the Quibbler while making everyone believe they don't.

When there was only one hour left to the ride, Harry asked the original question he wanted to ask.

"What method did you use to see past the notice me not spell?"

Luna turned to her bag, took out a white colored bean with black spots which Harry would have bet was something spicy and ate it. "Mmmm, chocolate chip vanilla." Luna smiled another on of her dreamy smiles with a little bit of sharpness to it as if saying 'don't ask' and asked her question. "How many friends do you have?" She asked, trying to keep the subject light and as they only just met, as much as he was curious Harry swallowed his wish to ask again as he didn't wish to lose his new friend

"Three including you." He said and Luna's eyes lost a bit of the dreamy look they always had moisturizing.

"Do you mean it? Are we really friends?"

"Of course, I don't use so much time in conversations except if they are my friends!"

As Harry said it he thought that she truly was someone he want to be friends with, as she was probably one of the most interesting, and unpredictable people he will ever meet. And when you are in the Wizarding world, where almost everyone are predictable and boring with their Narrow mind and idiotic life style, every bit of those qualities are worth keeping
