[OOC] Something In Between That [El Taco Taco and mmidnight]

Teddy Lupin
23

After having his heart broken for the first time in his life, Teddy went on to graduate from Hogwarts with just above average marks. In his time since school, Teddy has traveled all around Europe and eventually settled in a quaint village just outside of London. Currently, he works for the Daily Prophet as a photojournalist and sometimes fills in on the Sports section. He still keeps in contact with his family, and is particularly close to James II. He comes home for the holidays, but does his best to keep his distance otherwise out of fear of running into Victoire. Teddy prefers to communicate through owls, but he will occasionally indulge in a muggle phone call just for the novelty of it. He is currently single, although he has done his fair share of dating. If asked, Teddy would say that he is doing well and is quite happy with his life.

Hope that was okay. I thought he could work for the Prophet that way when the trouble starts up, there's a way for him to get information. I'm going to start on the first post now :3

Victoire Weasley
22

Victoire was a remarkably well-behaved child. Her room was always tidy, her grades respectable, and she was always minding her numerous younger siblings and cousins. Agreeable, withdrawn, and never one to make waves, she was often overlooked in the commotion of exploding toilets and fireworks common to the Weasley clan.
After Hogwarts, Victoire accepted a spot in St. Mungo’s training program, at her mother’s behest. Well behaved girls, after all, did not run off to become Curse Breakers. Well behaved girls made for excellent Healers, safe and sound in London. Victoire did well in her studies, recently qualifying as a fully-fledged Healer. On parchment, her life is perfect.
Victoire has embraced the hospital and its demands completely, taking on extra shifts and losing herself in the rigor of her work. She lives in a flat in the Isle of Dogs with a roommate and their puppy Henry, allowing work to schedule her shifts over holidays and birthdays alike. It’s been nearly two years since she has been home with her family.

Sorry my starter was so ridiculously long. I tend to get carried away! My normal posts are much shorter.

[mmidnight]

Oh, no problem! I really liked the post, it had me laughing a few times.

[El Taco Taco]

Oh, good! *_* It's been over a year since I've written Vic, so I'm still trying to get back into her headspace, but yay! I'm super stoked for this game! :D

[mmidnight]

I like her so far! I'm really looking forward to seeing how she and Teddy develop. And yeah, I am too! It's been a long time since I've done anything Harry Potter and I didn't think I would ever be excited about it again, but here I am, haha.

[El Taco Taco]

I love writing Vic because she's really just awful at being an adult and making choices for herself. 9 times out of 10, she manages to fuck it all up. It's loads of fun! :D She's certainly never boring, haha!

Harry Potter is just the fandom that never quits. There's always something new and awesome to explore. I heart it so. <3

[mmidnight]

It was my first fandom, but I got really burned out on it after a while D:

[El Taco Taco]

Totes understandable!

I swear, my next few posts will be less HURRRR WALL OF TEXTy.

[mmidnight]

Oh, it's okay. I enjoyed your post quite a bit :3

[mmidnight]

Are we treating the family as NPC, or are there characters you'd really like to control?

Also, I feel like they're going to get into it and I'm excited, haha.

[El Taco Taco]

I'd was planning on treating the lot of them as NPCs, but whatever you prefer!

Bwaha. The fight approaches. >:D

[mmidnight]

Okay! I just wasn't sure if you wanted to play her siblings or not, and I didn't want to end up stepping on toes sometime down the road, so I thought I would ask just to be on the safe side.

Haha, yesss. I'm so ready for it!

[mmidnight]

I don't know if I'll be able to reply tonight, and I'm pretty sure my Saturday is going to be a busy one. I promise to get you a reply by Sunday at the latest! I don't want you to think I forgot about this.

[El Taco Taco]

I'm so sorry for making you wait!

Hopefully obnoxiously stupid Victoire makes up for it?

[mmidnight]

It's fine!

And poor Vic D: I feel bad for her. I don't think Teddy is going to make it any better.

[El Taco Taco]

Victoire's just the worst when it comes to handling people gracefully. Throw in some anxiety, a bucket of angst, a healthy amount of wine and WHOOSH! Dramaaaaa.

[mmidnight]

I'm wondering how much of a jerk I should have him be. I feel like he's trying to keep his composure, but any little thing she says could set him off and he'll just be like, OH NOW U WANT TO APOLOGIZE?? GTFO, VICTOIRE I:

poor irrational kids, they need calm down time.

[El Taco Taco]

THE BIGGEST JERK, HE HAS EVERY RIGHT

Bwahahaa. Victoire's a silly butt. And poor Teddy. ): Dealing with Victoire's mad insecurities and temper.

[mmidnight]
