Teddy Lupin
Chapter 2
Teddy Lupin arrives at Hogwarts with a mop of untidy black hair and bright brown eyes. When he's sorted into Hufflepuff and the hat is plucked from his head the Great Hall gasps collectively because his hair has turned canary yellow in recognition of his house colours. He keeps it this way for a week before it returns to messy black for the remainder of the year.
In second year he favours hair that is the exact same shade of pale blonde as Victoire Weasiey. Only Minerva McGonagall notices that the first moment his hair involuntarily takes shade is when the hat at the top of Victoire's head calls Gryffindor.
Third year is the year of bubblegum pink hair. This brings a sad smile to some of the older professors who remember that shade of pink sported frequently by vivacious young girl many years ago.
Fourth year and he resumes the Weasley shade of red because it's shy little Molly Weasiey's first year and there's a distinct lack of red heads around.
Fifth year is when Dominique is sorted into Ravendaw, and his little adoptive family is spread over three Hogwaits houses now. So he (Teddy) spends the first few months with varying colours of scariet, royal blue and bright. sunshine yellow. Sometimes it's a multi-hued mix of al three but then he develops an annoying habit of changing his hair to the vibrant house colour of whoever he's talking to and forest gteen makes it into the mix.
In sixth year there's an incident that leaves him unconscious in the hospital wing and his altered features slowly fade to reveal what he would took like without the ability to change his appearance. McGonagall stops dead in the doorway when she finds the spitting image of a young Remus Lupin laying passed out in the bed. Teddy cries when she tells him this, unable to consciously stop any alterations to see for himself. She promises to take a picture if it happens again and Teddy spends the rest of the year with sandy brown hair and amber eyes borrowed from the creased photo he keeps by his bedside.
Seventh year he settles on a particular shade of turquoise blue. It's vivid and different and entirely of his own design for no other reason than he thinks it suits his personality. Victoire agrees that it does and it stays that way for the entire year, making the first time he keeps a colour that he hasn't borrowed from family, friends, houses or old photos for more than a week.
