[Mania Athanasiou]

Family
Here's a dwell deeper into each relationship with Mania and her family members. These relationships may change over time and will be adjusted accordingly. Each member of her family bears a different role and emotion in Mania's life.
​

Sofia Athanasiou; Mum, Mama; Disapproval

Growing up Mania always adored her mum, her beauty, grace and skills as a healer. Nia would strive to try and get her mama's approval, often causing a lot of chaos unintentionally which lead to her mum's disapproving glances and eventually complete disapproval. No matter how much or how little she did Mania always felt like there was something her mum would pick on. Perhaps it was that Sofia had always wanted a son, perhaps it was Mania's way of living life loudly, but there was always something.

As the years went on Nia continued to try and impress her mum and as she went to Hogwarts she thought she'd finally succeed in that task only to do bad in Potions and return home with a bad grade and to endless amount of disapproval and complaints. In her mama's eyes Mania has become the example of what her children should not be, which is made clear every chance she gets. Though there has never been much of affection showed to the daughter's of the Athanasiou family by their mum after the birth of her little brother Mania has realized just how much love she was denied.

In her second year Mania is starting to try and distance herself from the idea of how to impress her mum and instead she is trying to find who she is, because there's no point in trying to get approval from someone who is set on disapproval by default.

Jason Athanasiou; Dad, Baba; Indifference

Unlike her mama Mania never really craved too much of her father's approval and thus she never tried too hard. Even then it was clear if she'd tried it would have been in vain as the common feeling her father represented in her life was indifference. Baba had his favourites but Nia was never among them, though she tried to mirror his indifference a part of her cared, maybe even too much. His father never really chastised Mania like her mama did, only ever stepping in when asked for support by the woman, which sort of made him the favourite parent for the girl. At least one of them didn't nitpick every single thing she did and find something to disapprove of.

Starting at Hogwarts there wasn't much for Nia to try and impress her baba by doing since he'd never much cared for things outwardly other than Quidditch and that was an immediate no for Mania. Though a part of her always wished the dad would show at least some emotion, anything was better than the emptiness of indifference.

Hera Athanasiou; Hera, Rah; Admiration, Envy

Hera, who is the oldest of the Athanasiou children, has always been more of a parent than either of those that were supposed to be one. She's always looked after the younger children, even while at school she'd worry about them and write home, every break she'd come home just to spend some time with her sisters. Mania adores her sister but there's also an underlying sense of envy. Hera is always used in comparison to her, it's always be like Hera not like Mania. They are the two oldest and the examples of what not to be and what to be, though Rah always makes sure to tell Nia not to listen to that. That she's special and perfect in her own way and good enough as she is. Mania values and respects her sisters opinion a lot.

Gaia Athanasiou; Gaia, Gaipoo, Gai; Love, Safety, Shelter

Gaia is only 9 months younger than Mania, making them very close in age and thus they grew up close. Out of all her siblings Gaia is the closest one with Nia, she feels like protecting Gaia with every fiber of her being. Even though her sister is less than sociable most of the time there's a sense of calm and comfort they find in each other. In ways their polar opposites complete each other.
