A Horde Incoming

Okay, I have a lot of students to get through so let's go and see what happens. Plot ideas aren't the be-all-end-all but are just suggestions to help get your brain going!

Lucy is a studious, musical, and outdoors-loving girl. She doesn’t quite know what she’s doing yet but she has a girlfriend(!) and is very happy about that. Loves meeting new people and making new friends, can be inquisitive to the point of being annoying.

Looking for: conflict, mentoring younger students (helping them out, ect.), continuing friendships, and friends in general!
Specific plot ideas: Someone teaching her a new skill (someone in CAC?), being a tutor/study mentor for someone, a situation where she has to deduct points for the first time and doesn't really want to.

Serious to a fault and wants to be the best student ever basically. Loves Shakespeare and acts in his spare time. He’s introverted but becomes talkative about history and Shakespeare. He has a girlfriend at the moment, which he's secretly very pleased about (he doesn't show his emotions very well). Would love him to have more friends than just his girlfriend. He is much nicer than his younger sister, don't worry.

Looking for: similar-minded or differently-minded friends, conflict of some sort (especially with Slytherins who don’t ‘pull their weight’, as he’d put it).
Specific plot ideas: someone to get him out of his comfort zone (perhaps a dare?), perhaps he hears about someone losing points for Slytherin and goes to confront them, a rival that might turn into something more in the future (girls only for romance, doesn't have to turn into something more but that's an option).

Absolutely chuffed to be on the quidditch team, Aroha also loves duelling. She’s outgoing, bold, and open-minded to different people of different walks of life. Very competitive and likes to help others out. Occasionally is wise. Has a younger brother at Hogwarts who she's very protective of.

Looking for: threads with her friends, new people to befriend, potentially someone to clash with or have a rivalry with, open to romance too (any gender).
Specific plot ideas: lacking anything specific rn but might update this later

Loves gardening and reading and would rather be doing either of those. Can be pushy, potentially bossy, but is really kind-hearted when it comes down to it. She's been neglected a bit so doing stuff with her would be great. Also she's Lucy's cousin.

Looking for: more friends, potentially romance, anything you can think of really.
Specific plot ideas: a gardening buddy she can garden with and they have chats, potentially someone to bully her because she can be overly excitable.

Not the nicest girl, but she still needs friends! I feel kind of bad for her because she’s definitely left out of the any groups but it’s also kind of her fault. Would really appreciate her to have at least one close friend for a plot I have planned for her, so if you think you have someone who can deal with her, let me know! Also she loves baking more than anything, quidditch is her second favourite thing and she also plays taiko drums.

Looking for: Friends (obviously) but also continuing any enemy/bullying plotlines is fine with me!
Specific plot ideas: her baking for someone to try and curry favour with them, someone to rant to about how the dueling tournament 'wasn't fair' (it was), drama in the quidditch team that results in many bludgers going that person's way (and the fallout of this).

Quiet, chill sort of guy who's deeply invested in Māori culture but doesn't quite 'get' Hogwarts. More reserved than his sister, he will however belt out musical songs happily (his current favourite is Phantom of the Opera). Loves to make people feel better, maybe to a fault, but doesn't always take care of himself in that regard. He believes in taking care of others more than anything.

Looking for: friends, perhaps bullies.
Specific plot ideas: trying to make someone feel better and either succeeding or failing.

Bookish but sociable, he flip-flops between introverted and extroverted. He likes to think hard about things, and often pauses before speaking because of this. He dislikes confrontation and tries to be diplomatic. He has an active imagination due to being left alone as a child and values his friendships. He also loves art and anything to do with aesthetics. Consider him a mini Oscar Wilde in that sense.

Looking for: friends, perhaps a friend group even for him to join
Specific plot ideas: he has to be the voice of reason during a conflict, he sketches someone's portrait for practice

First thing about Ivara is that she loves frogs. Second thing about Ivara is that she's overly protective and stands up for people, whether they want it or not. She's also impulsive, often acting without thinking, and finds it hard to hide her emotions. She'd make a fiercely loyal friend but you would have to put up with frog facts.

Looking for: friends, a bully to stand up to, an enemy or rival
Specific plot ideas: she gets on the wrong side of someone (due to her frog facts or her temper), her frog goes missing at an inopportune time and someone helps her find it, she stands up to a bully who's trying to bully someone else

And those are my students! I also have Demetrius Wagner if you want or Professor Nakamura (upper astronomy professor). They're open for plots, I just tend to focus on students. If you give me a lot of options, I'll probably choose a few and leave some for second semester.

Hey Sarah!

I’d love to do more threads with Lucy and Tempest since they’re dating. Maybe Tempest could set up a little picnic date for them somewhere in the castle and they could catch up from the break?

I’d be interested in continuing any bullying from Kanako for Bea.

For Ivara, I have my first year Frannie. She is a little awkward, and I feel like she might get along with Ivara and tolerate her frog facts. We could put them together and see how they get along? I can start something.

Hi, Sarah!
I would like to suggest Rosolind and Addison. She could also use more friends, because she just moved to a new school last year, so a new friend would be useful.

Kanako and Rhea can also be helpful. If you need a close friend to cry on or tell your sorrows to, then she would be ready for that.

I also have Jun and Priyanka, they are in the same house and they already know each other. And could become friends.
Ivara and Priyanka. I could accept the fact of frogs, so that maybe she could learn more about frogs. Then we will see how they go.

I can start with the ones suggested.

Hi Kiersten!

Yes, we should totally do that! I love the idea of a picnic date.

I can get Kanako to do more bullying. I think what fuels Kanako to bully more than anything is jealousy, so maybe Bea gets a spell faster than Kanako in a class or something like that? Or potentially they just run into each other and Kanako is mean off the bat. Whichever works.

Yep, I'm keen for that! If you start that one, I can potentially start the other two?

Hi Daina!

Yep, they all sound good to me! Apologies in advance if Kanako is difficult though, she's just not always the nicest.

Are you sure you're okay to start all of them? I'm fine with starting at least one.

Awesome. That's okay, because it will be even more interesting to play. Challenges are always a good thing.

We can choose one pair. Yes, we can start with one. Which pair would you like to start with?

Sarah! Hello!

I'm here to offer a few ideas and characters! Feel free to decline any or all of em!

Lucy x Marley - Of course happy to offer these two!! Can't believe they're already sixth years! Where has the time gone? I always like their threads together hehe! Not exactly sure on ideas we could do for the two of them just yet, but yeah, happy to do something between these two!

Rosalind x Thomas - I'm pretty sure they're friends! We've had a few threads of them together now and I assume they're friendly and friends? I can see them being garden buddies!

Jun/Ivara x Eloise/Declan - Looks like the both of us have two firsties this year haha! I'm happy to offer either one of my firsties to either or both ur firsties! I know we've got that train thread between Ivara and Declan atm, but am happy to offer him anyway if there was any sort of thread u wanted to do in the near future once classes begin

That's all i'd like to offer for at the moment! But feel free to decline any or all of em!

Hi Sarah,

Kanako is about to have a blissful year of peace from Tori, but perhaps we could do something with Kananko and Lumos?

Let's start with Kanako and Rhea, and once the first semester starts Jun and Priyanka? I can start the Kanako one.

Hi Maria!
Lucy x Marley - Love them together, would be keen to have them have a thread. We could have them have a catch-up after the holidays?

Rosalind x Thomas - Yes, I think they're friends! We could have them nerding out about gardening together probably. Maybe for a change of pace they meet up in the library and read some gardening books together? Maybe there's a tricky plant that's not growing well in the gardens and they go together to look it up? Just throwing ideas out there

As for the firsties, I actually really like how Ivara and Declan are getting along atm. I'd be interested to have Jun and Eloise together too. I'm thinking doing one this semester and then the other next semester? Let me know what you think!

Hi Zazz!

Sure, I'm down for that. She's still a bit annoyed about losing to him at the duelling tournament lol but she'll actually probably get over it. Do you want to start it or should I?

I have a couple of things to start if you don't mind?

Yes, we can start with Kanako and Rhea, agreed, and then Jun and Priyanka. Okay, I'll wait.

Oh yes! All sounds perfect! We can totally do that with the firsties as well! What threads were u keen on starting? And I can do what’s left over

That makes for sense for Kanako. We could wait and have them interact after one of the lessons or maybe they take one of the same electives? Bea would probably take Ancient Runes, CoMC, and maybe another one if Kanako might also be in those. Or we could just look at Charms or something.

And that works. I can start one for Ivara and Frannie soon!
