Summary
Lyra Lestrange considered herself a good person.
A good daughter, a good sister, a good friend, a good student — and even a good stepdaughter, though Catelyn most certainly did not deserve that.It was true that she ran away from home at six and spent months in the Muggle world.
It was true that her best friends were an insufferable group of Slytherins.
It was true that she sometimes felt the urge to grab the thickest edition of Hogwarts: A History and beat Harry Potter over the head with it.
And it was true that her father’s cousins and the wife of one of them had committed acts so horrific that merely hearing her surname made people nearly wet themselves in fear.She was a good person.
She helped Neville in Potions, gave extra lessons to anyone who needed them (including Gryffindors), fed every lost creature she came across, and never told Catelyn to throw herself into a fire. She made an effort, every single day, to be kind.
Lyra believed that there was always someone having a worse day, so always be kind.
So why, then, did the idiotic Boy Who Lived act as if she were the embodiment of the Devil himself?
(See? She even knew and referenced Muggle culture.)
