Hello, so I'm not very good at these things and am stuck on what to write, but I think with Mandy here it's required. She's transferred in to 5th year and I'm looking for 4th/5th years and above to befriend her. I was hoping to find maybe a small group she could slip in with, but after thinking about it I doubt she'd be up for that in her current mindset, maybe a few weeks/months down the line. I fear I'm making her such a sad act of a character and I haven't even begun to role play as her yet, but here goes;
Normally, Mandy's a fun, life loving, head strong young girl but at the moment she's shut down a little, due to the circumstances under which she's transferred. Had it not been for her fathers recent cancer diagnosis, she would be continuing with home schooling, as her dad had intended. As it is, this is not the case. Mandys mother left her, her dad and her brother when Mandy was 9 after having an affair and falling pregnant with another mans baby. She had her reasons, finding it difficult and struggling, as a muggle, to get by in a wizards world (Mandys dad's a wizard and him and her mum met during the summer holidays between his 6th and 7th year at school) but Mandy thinks this is nowhere near a valid reason for leaving her family and never making contact again. At the age of 9, it had more of an effect on Mandy than her 4 year old brother, and after her departure she picked up on several 'mum duties' like trying to keep the house tidy, cooking the majority of there meals and being the best big sister Grant could ever have asked for. She matured dramatically in a short space of time. Mandy loves her small family and they've always been incredibly close-knit, and when her father was diagnosed with lung cancer a year previous to this, it hit her hard. He's about to begin regular treatments, but the doctors don't seem too hopeful, it's not looking like they've caught it early enough. David doesn't want his children to have to watch his health deteriorate and so is sending them both to HNZ. Mandy doesn't agree with this decision at all, she wants to be there for him, doesn't believe he'll be able to properly look after himself, especially when the cancer begins to take its toll and thinks they should be making the most of any time they have left as a family though she doesn't want to think about how short it could possibly be. She doesn't want to argue with her father, she knows it would hurt him to object and go against his wishes and doesn't want to cause him any stress, so will go to Hogwarts against her will.
At the moment, she wont trust or open up easily and will probably be thought of as hostile and awkward. I'm looking for a few people who are willing to give her time, be a friend to her, introduce her to life at Hogwarts and hopefully bring her into herself again at which point she'll repay you by being the happy, bubbly, full of nonsense kind of person you want to be friends with rather than the depressed one you take pity on and feel you have to.
Sorry about the length

) she has come out of herself a lot more.She is trying to make friends because ever since she was a little girl her twin Ryan was her best friend and she didn't think she'd need anyone else.But then he changed and Star was left by herself.Since then she has been lonely and is trying to be her true self around people and enjoy her last few years of Hogwarts. If Mandy was hostile at the beginning that may put Star off a little bit but she would realize the girl probably has a reason to be like this and she would be patient.And try to make her feel better and happier.She isn't in the best of moods herself as she has found out some things about her brother which has greatly hurt her and annoyed her.But Star would do her best to befriend Mandy.Since meeting Sammy she has become a lot more playful (since they did build a fort together) so she would try and think of fun ways of making Mandy feel better.She loves reading and taking photos.She loves long distant running.
only for a while though.)
