but i will shy away from the specifics.

  Albus Severus Potter, the son of Ginny Potter (née Weasley) and the infamous Boy Who Lived, Harry Potter, is currently in his seventh year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. While being sorted into Gryffindor, he has a hard time relating to his house and sometimes doubts whether the Sorting Hat made the correct decision; he doesn't view himself as particularly brave. Perhaps he would have been better off in Slytherin, but his eleven-year-old self had practically begged the Hat for any other house. While not exactly a slacker, per se, Al (his nickname of choice) prefers to fly under the radar at school, rather than exceed everyone's previous expectations and be forced to live in his father's shadow. He does what he needs to to get by. Perhaps he's not the most sociable boy on the planet, but he's friendly enough to others, and is substantially more outgoing when it comes to people he's close with.
