archives Tuesday, May 13, 2008 Introduction On Sage Lupin’s first day at Hogwarts, she found herself sitting with Alicia Spinnet, Katie Bell, Angelina Johnson, Lee Jordan, and Fred and George Weasley on the Hogwarts Express. It was the beginning of her fifth year, a transfer from Durmstrang after the death of her parents and sudden relocation to the small house of her much older half-brother Remus. It was also the year of the Triwizard Tournament and the Yule Ball. Sage quickly became friends with this group of Gryffindors after being sorted into the same house. She cheers when Angelina puts her name into the Goblet of Fire, and laughed when Fred and George grew beards. Alicia and Sage became especially close, and Sage was happy for her when George asked her to the Yule Ball and they continued to date afterwards. (Sage herself went with Lee Jordan and had a rockin’ good time—just as friends). When summer arrived, Remus and Sage moved with Sirius to Number Twelve. There they met the Weasleys and began making the house more inhabitable. Over the summer there, Sage spent most of her time with Fred and George to help them plan their joke shop. She corresponded with Alicia regularly, and they met a few times in Diagon Alley when Sage could manage to escape her duties. She received her OWLs happily, getting top marks in Potions, Defense Against the Dark Arts, Ancient Runes, Herbology, and Muggle Studies. She even managed to scrape almost-top marks in Transfiguration, her worst subject. Sage’s 6th year was Alicia’s 7th year, and they did not see much of each other because Alicia was studying nearly all of the time for her NEWTs. Even George was having a difficult time sustaining a relationship with her because he himself saw no reason to study. George and Sage spent more and more time together as they both continued to try to get Alicia to pay them attention. Both joined Dumbledore’s Army. By the time the twins left Hogwarts (with a flourish), George was Sage’s other best friend. Sage accompanied Harry and the other D.A. members to the Department of Mysteries to rescue Sirius. Fighting the Death Eaters, having been tortured with the Cruciatus Curse by Lucius Malfoy, and witnessing the death of Sirius were such harsh tastes of reality that Sage felt like she was in a completely different world than that of Alicia, whose main concerns still seemed to be Quidditch and whether her father approved of her NEWTs. Alicia went to America after graduating from Hogwarts in pursuit of a Quidditch career, but maintained her relationship with George, who missed her—or at least, the idea of her. As Sage witnessed most of her friends being in relationships (George and Alicia, Fred and Katie, Ginny and Michael Corner), she jumped into a relationship with Vincent Lockhart headfirst and without much thought. They slept together during the first night of their relationship. During the second night Vincent tried to overdose on an illegal potion, and Sage, feeling as though there was no other option, took the potion from him and drank it herself instead. After this, he professed that he loved her—and what else could she say but that she loved him as well? Their relationship was full of sex and fighting. Sage could often be found crying, and who to notice better than her only best friend still in Britain?
