Bio: Much of Teddy’s early life is well known. He never knew his parents, but he was raised to understand just how amazing they were. Remus was kind and intelligent, Nymphodora was tenacious and bold. The adults in his life were good about answering his questions with unflinching honesty and he was honest in return. He’s never considered his story tragic. Not many people have the experience of an excess of people willing to parent you.
In school, Teddy was sorted into Hufflepuff and did relatively well. He tried his hand at everything, playing as Keeper for a few years and competing in Wizards Chess. The one thing he truly excelled at was being Prefect. Perhaps it was his experience raising the Potters, but he seemed to know the perfect blend of appeasing the professors and actually being there for the students. Professors seemed to trust his judgement and students knew they could come to him, so it was no surprise when he was made Head Boy his final year.
When he graduated, he tried is hand at becoming an Auror but found it wasn’t for him at all. He trained at Mungo’s but also didn’t stay there. Despite his indecision and lack of direction, Teddy seemed undeterred and unfazed. He had learned from the Potters that life was unpredictable and didn’t line up nicely. He consistently worried if he was on the right path but forced himself to push through for the sake of his siblings, believing they needed to learn to embrace the messy.
That’s what led him to take up teaching. He realized he was more or less always trying to teach someone something - may as well make it official. He spoke with the Potters to ensure no one would feel he was infringing upon them and has is now entering his seventh year as a professor - a natural fit, all things considered.
