I WALK THIS EMPTY STREET
[/color][/font][/center]Personality
[/font][/center]DISLIKES: Being babied by his mother and Brianna, arguments between family members, living in Ireland during the holidays, being bored or not entertained, feeling as though he's got to live up to his father's legacy, orange-flavored anything, iceburgs, broken bones
LIKES: Quidditch, magical creatures, rock music, girls, flirting, working out, teasing his sisters, getting good marks, having a good time, pranks, sweets, the fact that there are little to no mosquitoes in Ireland, having awesome seats at Quidditch games, muggle cinema
BAD HABITS: Acting cocky (though he's really not), pretending to be stupider than he really is so he won't be considered a geek, hitting on any girl (including unavailable ones)
GOOD HABITS: Completing his homework on time, taking the full allotted time for an exam, keeping his ego in check despite his cocky nature, being a loyal friend
WEAKNESSES: Any opportunity to flirt, sweets, caring too much about his appearance
STRENGTHS: Being a good student, excelling at Quidditch, cheering up people
PERSONALITY: Bronson is more like his middle sister than his eldest sister. On the outside, he's cocky and flirtatious. He acts as if he'd Merlin's gift to man. However, he must be a good flirt because he is a ladies man. Bronson loves a good snog - he even goes after unavailable women. He's still a virgin, but plays it off as if he's not. Even though he's a flirt, Bronson isn't sure he wants to sleep with just anyone. Part of him wants to do it with someone 'special'. Parties are something he really enjoys.
Turning inside, there is more to Bronson. He's studious and a hard worker, never failing to complete his work. He's kind of like one of those college kids who parties all night, but then stays up the rest of the night to finish an essay or some random homework assignment. Never once in his three years at Hogwarts as Bronson handed in a late assignment. Those who know Bronson well are aware of his two different sides, though they may not like the way he acts.
Bronson is a very good friend - he's more like a Gryffindor in that aspect: fierce and loyal. He will do just about anything for his friends and his family (but he's more protective over Brianna.) However, once Bronson's trust has been rocked, it's difficult to gain back.

HISTORY: Born the youngest of two older sisters, Bronson always felt as though he was playing catch up. At least when it came to his father, since it was clear that his mother had a soft spot for him. Bronson wanted to be and strived to be a daddy's boy as he grew up, but it was clear that his eldest sister was his father's favorite.
Perhaps because of this (bot most likely not), Bronson became Brianna's shadow. He followed her everywhere, mimicking everything she did and often begging her to play. As they grew older, they remained just as close and she's probably the only person that really knows Bronson. And she's the only one allowed to call him Brons - anyone else gets a nasty look and a sarcastic comment thrown in their face.
Bronson could fly a broom ever since he could walk (or at least he says.) There's not a childhood memory he doesn't have that is missing a broomstick - whether he was flying with his father or by himself. Bronson is obsessed with Quidditch and wants to be just as successful in it as his father. Oftentimes, Bronson tries to impress his father because he thinks the man hates him. Bronson does everything and anything he can to get his father's attention. He was slightly mortified to fall from his broom in the summer of 2021 (due to appendicitis) because he thought his father might holler at him for being a terrible player. And, since his fall, Bronson has been a little scared to fly again.
Sticking by Brianna's side is probably the main reason Bronson is most like her. Not that he really minds - he enjoys having an exciting social life, but also being able to score high marks. It's something he prides himself in. At Hogwarts, Bronson is easily able to balance his social life with his school life. He doesn't want his parents to think he's messing up too badly. He doesn't have many problems at Hogwarts and looks forward to each new year.
