FACE CLAIM:

EYES:

HAIR:

[/i] ago. it gets in the way, you know? of course, mum wanted it to still look nice, so it's all flippy with fringe and such. [/ul]
SKIN TONE:

BODY TYPE:

HEIGHT/WEIGHT:

BODY MODIFICATIONS:

CLOTHING STYLE:

[/i]- but i don't walk out of the dorm with dirty clothes or anything. i do care about being presentable- it's probably the only thing mum got through to me with- just not in the way that mummy would like. i don't wear dresses. ever. but i do like jeans, and you wouldn't catch me wearing ill-fitting ones, either. i know what looks good on me, and i wear it. it doesn't really go further than that.[/ul]
[/size]

so let's set the world on fire
-------we can burn brighter than the sun

LIKES:

[/i] hungry, though i do worry that the amount i eat is unhealthy. i'm thankful for the set mealtimes at hogwarts, anyway, because then i don't eat more often than i should. it's my goal not to visit the kitchens more than five times this year. but i digress. er, i like when people get what's coming to them, you know? if someone's a prat, and they fall down the stairs, it's funny. they deserve it. i like laughing. i like piggy-back rides. i like when nate tries to keep the fact that he snogs loads of girls away from me, because how oblivious does he think i am, anyway? i like writing, i guess? my thoughts just make sense on paper- i tend to stumble over my words when i talk. what else do i like? er- stew? i don't know, you'd probably find out more about what i like just by talking to me. i'm not exactly shy about what makes me happy.[/ul]
DISLIKES:

[/i] arrogant people. what gives them the right to know they're brilliant? i don't mind cocky people, (nate's a bit cocky at times, now that i think about it) because they just think they're better. arrogant people know it, and it drives me crazy!
hmm, i don't really dislike much. except… well, this is embarassing- i don't really like talking to guys i fancy. i'm already awkward enough when i talk, making up new words and the like, but i'm terrible with attractive chaps (isn't that a a fun word?).
i don't like finding out that people i like have flaws, if that makes sense? i don't know, i tend to look up to people, and i hate realizing they're not good at something. it's really… disconcerting.
er- don't tell nate this, but i really don't like the girls he snogs. they're so desperate, you know?
i don't like dark magic. at all. once, mum took me to work with her, and there was this guy there, and he was dying, and it was terrible.
er, i suppose i don't really like my looks much. i'm just not attractive, you know? and that's not really what matters, so i try to act really boyish, so people fall for me and not my looks, but so far that hasn't really worked out.. [/ul]
STRENGTHS:

[/i] or something, but i don't really care. i keep their secrets, even if they're things people should know, because eventually they'll tell on their own, won't they?

i'm good at revenge plots, i guess. maybe it's thanks to eli and her slytherinness, but i just know what is an acceptable revenge plan. i'd never do something more or less mean to someone than what they'd do, because i'm all about balance. i just know how much something will hurt someone, and i choose accordingly. it's fairness, right? i'm all about fairness.

i guess this leads from what i said above, but i'm good at plans in general. i'm creative, i guess? it's like i said, i just know how things will make people feel, and just general effects and such, so i can usually figure out how to make people laugh. pranking works, i guess, but mostly i like making funny comments. i don't really have the patience for long-winded pranks, and sometimes they hurt people, you know, and i hate that. hurting people.

i'm a decent cook. dad taught me. [/ul]
WEAKNESSES:

[/i] winter.

i don't really think when i talk, so i forget verbs and subjects and objects sometimes- it's not that i don't know my grammar, i just forget. my brain just doesn't tune in when i'm talking, i guess. sometimes i forget that i'm talking in the middle of a sentence and just stop talking. my professors think i'm kind of stupid, i think. it's alright, i guess. i do well in essays.

i can be a bit mean, sometimes. again, this is probably something that has happened because of eli, but i tend to treat people really sarcastically when i'm not comfortable. i just… shut down, really. if people are mad at me, or i'm talking to someone i fancy, either i start babbling (if i'm friends with the person i fancy) or i turn into a right bitch (if i don't know them.) i'm just not good with strangers, i guess.

i procrastinate. why do today what you can do tomorrow?[/ul]
HABITS/QUIRKS:

WISHES/GOALS:

[/i] so why would she?

i guess i'd like to raise my marks in a few subjects, though that isn't my biggest priority at the moment. it's not OWL year yet![/ul]
FEARS:

[/i] me out. nate's got a a face- i think it's a dragon- tattooed somewhere and its eyes just terrify me.

i don't like blood and liquid and fluids and bodily crap- i have no clue how mum does it. they just make me want to puke.[/ul]
BOGGART:

MIRROR OF ERISED:

DEMENTOR:

[/i] i'm going to puke again.[/ul]
PATRONUS:

[/i] came up to us and started making fun of us- you know, saying we were ugly and the like. i was so angry and then there was this pop sound, and boom, he had all these zits everywhere. it was hilarious.[/ul]
VERITASERUM:

AMORTENTIA:

OVERALL PERSONALITY:

[/i] going to think you're a prat, no matter how nice you end up being, and vice versa. I'm not good at doing what's best for people when it's not what they want- I end up feeling terrible for betraying them.

I'm a stereotypical hufflepuff, I guess. I'm loyal, I don't do betrayal, I believe in fairness (I think being a judge would be fun), I'm fairly cheerful and athletic, and I love my family. I'm not very hard-working, though, and I can be a bit snarky to people I don't know. Oh well! [/ul]
[/size]

the moon is on my side
------------------i have no reason to run

FATHER:

MOTHER:

[/i][/ul]
SIBLINGS:

[/i]! she can be a bit sarcastic, i guess, but i don't think it's anything to worry about.

there's also nathaniel, who goes by nate (we all have nicknames, now that i think about it). he's a sixth year, and he's wonderful. he's an artist, and he's really good. he's got loads of girls, apparently, but i don't like to think about that- i'd hate to think that i wouldn't like my own brother, you know? he's a ravenclaw, so he's got to be smart. and he's honestly so nice, the best brother ever, if you ask me.[/ul]
OTHER IMPORTANT FIGURES:

[/i]. eli's named after her, though. i'm a bit worried about her, though, because she's sixty-four, and apparently that's quite old in muggle years. she's married to grandpap, who's younger than her, if you can believe it- he's sixty-two. his name's james- nate got his middlename from him.

and then there are aunt kate and uncle mark, and my cousins becky and marko. becky's in my year, marko's a year older, and i'm not really sure how old aunt kate and uncle mark are.[/ul]
OVERALL HISTORY:

[/i]. i also spent quite a bit of time at the hospital with mum, because she didn't like leaving me at the house. it was a bit scary, i think, because everyone was always [i[dying.[/i] i did learn about healing, though, so that's good, even if i don't plan on going into healing. it's a sad profession, really, because no matter how good someone's been, they can still die. it scares me.

when i was around six, i broke my first law. just joking, but i guess it sort of was breaking a law? i did magic in front of a muggle, anyway. it happened when nana had just made cookies, and i really wanted to eat them, even though they were hot. i grabbed one, and even though it was just out of the oven, it was immediately cool! it's not exactly impressive, but nana nearly had a heart attack, so i knew it was magic. it's a bit funny, isn't it?

the rest of my childhood was spent much the same- climbing trees, eating nana's food, having the occasional spurt of magic. at some point, i decided that i didn't want to be pretty- i think mum tried to force me into a dress, and i wasn't too chuffed, but it ended up with how i am now. i didn't cut my hair right away, but i started hanging out with the neighbourhood boys more than the neighbourhood girls, and before you knew it, i'd learnt a fair amount of swear words- i've outgrown them now, but mum was furious.

i went to hogwarts at eleven, obviously, and met some really nice people. becky, my cousin, was in my year, and we talked sometimes, but we weren't exactly best friends. she reminds me a bit of eli, sometimes. i did make some nice friends, though.

since then, i've done alright in my classes- i've been worrying about eli a bit, since there are, you know, rumours, but i'm getting by. lately i've been worrying a bit about my weight, which is ridiculous, because i'm completely healthy and i don't even care about how i look, but i don't know, something someone said bothered me. it's nothing important, really, i swear. you know how some girls can be- "oh, you wouldn't even make a cute boy, because you're fat." i mean, how ridiculous is that?

OTHER CHARACTERS:

EXPERIENCE:

SECRET PHRASE:

ROLEPLAY SAMPLE:

[/i] grandparents. They were so proper, and grandmum always wanted to talk about what Lou and Eli ought to name their kids. And Lou didn't even want kids! "Oh, er, nothing for me, thank you," she said politely as her grandmum offered her a plate of dry looking cookies. They couldn't be as good as nana's, and Lou didn't think she should eat another bite- she'd had four mini quiches already.

Suddenly, the topic of grades were brought up- subjects could change very quickly at dinner with the Pritchards- and Lou inwardly shut down. She hadn't been doing too well lately. Well, she told herself, it's only because you haven't worked very hard- if you tried, you'd succeed. That's how it works.[/quote][/ul]

[Travis Malloy]

I just need to get Bree and Riss' approval! (And if Becca, Jane, and Mati want to take a look at her, that would be great!)

[Cassie Lewis]

Oh, I adore her.

[Norah O'Banion]

I'm good on her, Roma. I'd like to know what was said to her about her weight, though. Eli would too so that she can smash everything, but - ya know.

Oh. You should ask Mati, or even Becca, first about how/if Lou knows about Elsie. Because Eli only had suspicions that were confirmed to her by Kate, and then eventually Becky. And Eli hasn't/won't tell anyone . . . so I'd get that cleared up first, love!

[Travis Malloy]

i can edit something in, though most of the breeziness of it was because she tries not to care, so she's a bit of an unreliable narrator. and the bit about elsie and mark was just a mistake on my part, i'm sorry- i thought the whole family knew. i can change it.

EDIT: i'm on my phone at the moment, and it won't let me scroll the text box. i won't be able to use my computer until late tonight because i'm on a long car ride. but i'll get it done then!

[Grace Longbottom]

i've got a pet parrot named zazu at home, but he can't come to hogwarts. he knows loads of swear words. i blame nate.

hahahahahahahaha, it's so true though. far out, nate's such a bad influence. he can't even keep a lid on his swearing around parrots. what is his life.

roma, i adore her and love her and she's kickass and awesome!

[Travis Malloy]

oh, thank you bree! that makes me extremely happy. :3 edits have been made; please tell me if there's anything else i need to change!

[Grace Longbottom]

admin comments: everything's all good and she's absolutely accepted! sorry, i thought this had been accepted before for some reason. apologies for taking so long! <3
