Link of the Day goes to the flashback Sue.

About the eleven, I think you may have misread. She's actually saying the Draco/OC romance will happen later, not at the start, because at the start Draco and the OC are only eleven years old.

she’s the first muggle-born Slytherin in decades

There hasn't been single ambitious or cunning Muggleborn in decades? That seems statistically unlikely somehow.

Probably.

Only 11

[anonymous]

"This is an eventual (because they're only 11)..." is a reference to the age of the characters at the beginning of the story, not the number of stories they think exist.

This is a relatively common phrase from authors who are paranoid about writing preteen relationships. They are just trying to clarify that their characters won't be having romantic encounters until probably at least third or fourth year (if not later). I'm surprised you haven't come across this phrase or something similar before.

Re: Only 11

I have come across the phrase, just not worded like that.

I'm just glad to see an obnoxious OC get Draco rather than Hermione
