The thing about The Boy Who Ran au is that I, as Harry James Potter, have literally no real idea if certain things work the way i think they do. So i can guess crystal protections work, but i don’t know

So like i’m going to just end up, like, sellotaping Serpentine to Mr. Weasley’s head or something. Hot glue turquoise to literally everyone’s robes on the inside. Chrysoberyl, amber, and amethyst is getting glued inside Ginny’s hat while i insist that i’m just in an arts and crafts phase. 

“Harry, why are.. why is your necklace so many.. that.”
“I like rocks.”
“Why so many?”
“I may need them.”

At the very least, I can then throw things really hard at Death Eaters.
