Tom + Addams Family anyone?
Okay, this idea just suddenly pops into my head unbidden 5 minutes ago, but don’t anyone think that it would be fun to read about Tom getting adopted by the Addams family before receiving his letter to Hogwarts and learning that there is a whole world of magic next to him? Tommy-dearest would have the oddest time trying to figure out his strange new family (imagine him freaking out over Hand but still trying to maintain a calm facade while screaming bloody murder) and then when he thought he has it all sort out. Boom! He learns that there is a whole magical community next-door that he has never notice because he was too fascinated by his new family. Also, the Addams family are outcasts of the magical community and tend to keep to themselves blah blah blah many rumors of them still practicing old traditions and have many many dark tombs and artifacts in their family library (which they do by the way, steer clear of the third aisle, they suspect that’s where House’s real mouth is, not entirely too sure but House hasn’t feed in quite a while so best not risk it) blah blah blah whatever you need to more seamlessly incorporate the Addams to the Harry Potter world. There’s also potential in Tom and Wednesday’s interactions-I think they would be quite a power duo in Slytherin and maybe potentially possibly adding a time traveler!Harry or Death Master!Harry into the mix.
