She flits from one activity to the next, never stopping in between and sometimes even doing at least three simultaneously. It's not like she can't just sit back and relax—she actually likes doing that too—but there's this overwhelming sense of restlessness within her that she can never seem to quell. She has to be constantly moving. Even when she's sitting still, she's not actually [i]sitting[/i] still. She fidgets and fiddles, bounces her feet or drums her fingers. It's especially noticeable when's having a bad day. She'll pace around or commit herself to a bunch of different activities for distraction. Socially speaking, Emmy missed most conventional marks. For one thing, she never censors herself. Or she tries to, but her mouth moves too fast and words are slipping out before she even realizes. Prone to rambling, she also tends to divulge more than she means to. Well, usually. There are times where she purposely lets things slip, and people would be none the wiser. Emmy is naturally expressive and often uses her whole body to talk, making it easy for others to discern her emotions. She is very fluent in sarcasm, as well, and has a quip ready for any situation, appropriately jocular or snarky depending on the circumstance. It's almost like an instinct to her, really. She generally uses humor as a giant defense mechanism, which is why she'll be cracking jokes at the most inappropriate moments. Eccentricities aside, Emmy has all the makings of a Terra, though it may not seem like it at first. Incredibly resourceful, she is great at improvising and thrives under pressure. It's the main reason she does pretty well in classes despite all her goofing off, and why most of the staff are particularly hard on her. She has the potential to be one of the school's brightest, if only she applied herself in her classes. Alas, her passion lies in other things. Solving KingsRidge mysteries and exploring the academy is just so much more interesting. With things she does have interest in, Emmy is stubborn. Once she sets her mind on a goal, she does whatever it takes to accomplish it, caring little about the 'how.' Or simply put, Emmy's of 'the end justifies the means' persuasion. Her approaches are often unorthodox, but who cares when you get results, right? All this culminates in a tendency to act on ideas without thinking them through, no matter how reckless and idiotic it seems. Luckily, she always (okay, almost always) manages to pull them off because of her astuteness and quick thinking, so it's never given her too much trouble. Oh, and she's actually a pretty great friend to have. She is as blindly loyal as a puppy. There is [i]nothing[/i] she wouldn't do for a good friend, and they can be sure that she'll find a way to solve whatever problem they have. She's the best go-to person you could have, especially when in need of a partner in crime (she is literally always up for some rule breaking). [b]SHORT BIOGRAPHY:[/b] Raised by a cop and an engineer in a small town in southern California, you'd think Emmy would have grown up to be disciplined and hardworking. But the way she saw it, her older brother already took all of her dads' best qualities and she was left with the problematic ones. He was the sensible and responsible one who got top grades and work hard, and she [i]wasn't.[/i] Emmy thought the world of her older brother Nick. She was the Robin to his Batman, the Luigi to his Mario, the Patrick to his Spongebob, the—you get the point. They were always together, and not just because she followed him around everywhere. Nick was only two years older, but as their dads were often up to their knees with work, he took on the role of caring for her when they couldn't. He played with her and tutored her, indulged all her childish whims. Both of them turned out to be magically-inclined, and they supported each other when their abilities started to manifest, which was around the same time. He helped her reign in her magic whenever she had her outbursts, and she taught him new tricks she'd learn by messing around. Nick's first year in Kingsridge was the first time they had to part for longer than a day. Emmy busied herself so she wouldn't feel his absence. She started learning programming and found she had a knack for it (months later she would have been using her hacking expertise to mess with people she didn't particularly like). Her brother wasn't there to hold her back, so she used her magic a little more chaotically (like, to mess with the same people she didn't particularly like). She read mystery books and played video games and binge watched sci-fi shows. It was only when brother finally returned for the holiday that she slowed down. Nick's second year in Kingsridge was the last time they had to part. His accident happened during winter break. They were crossing the street, there was a drunk driver, he shielded her. He died instantly, and no magic spell could have saved him. Emmy cried her eyes out for a month and thought she would never stop, but she did eventually. To cope, she busied herself as she always did, making sure she would never have time to think about unnecessary things. There was nothing to make her slow down and stop this time, so she kept moving. Hurricane Emmy was in full gear. She attended Kingsridge a year later, but she never did outgrow the need to keep moving. [b] MISCELLANEOUS:[/b] An expert computer hacker. Tends to make muggle pop culture references, even when among Purebloods. Has panic attacks when overly stressed.

He talked about this popular Solis girl a lot, the one with the 'beautiful smile that lights up the room,' so I was really rooting for him. Then one day, he joked about being jilted and he never mentioned her again. So, boo, Rylan! You missed out." Emmy's just being childishly petulant by actively disliking her for not liking her brother back. She actually thinks she's pretty fun. [b]Salem Truitt[/b]: ☺ "Salem is the best! Best of the best! He makes me laugh all the time, and I can go to him whenever I need help with something. You know he has a really good singing voice? I recorded him singing once—but don't tell him that—and I can probably make it go viral… if only the wizarding world isn't trapped in the dark ages." Emmy is very fond of her Cajun housemate; he's probably her favorite person in Kingsridge. She trails after him like a duckling does its mother, and if there's anyone she'll listen to obediently, it's Salem. She would never hesitate to lend him a hand, and she is incredibly protective of him. [b]Nolan Parver:[/b] ◑/☺ "I saw her climbing outside the other day. She's pretty strange… I like her! Maybe I should try talking to her more. We can have fun exploring the campus!" Emmy hasn't gotten a lot of chances to talk to Nova, but they have crossed paths before. She tried to mimic her actions once, after she watched her expertly climb a tree, and failed miserably. Luckily, Nova was there to help her out. [b]Jayln Vance:[/b] ◑/☺ "Mr. Fredrickson played with his Gordon a few times!" Emmy doesn't know him too well, but she likes his weird sense of humor. She wouldn't mind getting to know him better. He doesn't seem like the type that likes to hang out with other people, though. [b]Lamillia May Johnson:[/b] ◑ "Ooh, doesn't it seem like she came out of a CW teen drama? The popular girl who likes all things pretty." Emmy doesn't know Lamillia beyond the idle gossip in the common room. Those who talk about her seem to be split: 50% like her and her attitude; 50% don't. [b]Thomas Benjamin Grimm:[/b] ◑ "Relaaax, take it easy~ ♪ Oops… which name was I on? Thomas who? Oh, Starbolt Tom. I'm pretty sure I passed by him once or twice. It's really hard to recognize the people sitting still, you know. They're all blurry." Emmy knows about him because of Cass, who shares her appreciation for sport brooms. Maybe she could ask him for some R&R tips? [b]Cliodhna Burns:[/b] ◑ "Pureblooded Astra to look out for, 1 of 2: the redhead." Emmy has never interacted with Clio, but she knows about her from her housemates, mostly from the ones who have gotten in trouble because of her. [b]Charlotte M. Spirit:[/b] ◑/☠"Pureblooded Astra to look out for, 2 of 2: the supremacist." Emmy knows her as one of the students who have a strong dislike for muggles. She just doesn't understand why anyone would discriminate because of blood purity. [b]Benjamin Teague:[/b] ☺ "Haha! I feel like we're the tortoise and the hare. Ben and I are in the same year, but that's pretty much where our similarities end." Emmy and Ben are at the two opposite ends of a spectrum. He thinks things through slowly but thoroughly, while she wings it most of the time. Overly cautious, while she's overly reckless. She doesn't mind though, and thinks it's hilarious when they're next to each other. [b]Morrigan Cassandra Brighthill:[/b] ☺ "Woohoo! Go, Cass! Try not to break anything again!" Cass is one of her close friends. They hang out a lot in the common room, and they can talk about anything and everything. Emmy finds her amusing, and she often cheers for her when she's doing one of her risky stunts. She gushed about her mom when she first found out about her, but she got over it within five minutes, which is the typical Emmy attention span. [b]Kwes Powers:[/b] ◑ "Cool name. Sounds like some superhero! Kwes Powers to the rescue, evildoers beware." Emmy can confidently say that her observation skills are top notch, but even then, she can't figure Kwes out. He looks like the type to enjoy solitude, but he actually is very social. Another one with a weird sense of humor. [b]Emmeline Lovelock:[/b] ☺ "Boop!" [b]Toby Kipling:[/b] ◑/♥ "I got pecked by his Rufus once, after I tried to pet him. Wasn't a fun experience. Anyway, Toby's pretty funny!" Emmy's always drawn to people with a weird sense of humor. She doesn't know him well—it's really hard getting to know people when she interacts with so many different ones every day—but she has talked to him a couple of times. He's super nice and optimistic, and she sure wouldn't mind hanging out with him to get better acquainted. [/list] [list][u][b]Staff[/b][/u] [b]Reuben Grayson:[/b] ☺ Emmy likes to think of the Headmaster as that cool uncle that gives you gifts every time he visits. He helped her through a panic attack once, staying with her until she calmed down even though he was really busy, and she'll always be grateful for that. [b]Balthazar Casper Barnes:[/b] ☺ "One of my favorite classes, and my second favorite teacher! He's got a no bullshit policy that I can appreciate, and he's not even scary. It's really easy to approach him!" Emmy actually tries is DADA, which is quite a big feat, coming from her. Although, she does get distracted from time to time (it's his fault anyway; it's unfair for a professor to be that handsome), his teaching method works really well for her. [b]Melissa Wallace:[/b] ◑/☺ Because Charms is one of Emmy's strong points, she found that she doesn't really need to pay attention to Mel to pass the class. She finds her boy-crazy attitude pretty hilarious, though. Emmy always tries to coax her into talking about random things to waste class time. [b]Jaylen Beckley:[/b] ☠ "Boo, Professor B." Emmy was disheartened when she found out about his stance on muggles. He's a great teacher and his class could have been one she actually took seriously, but because she takes his dislike for muggles personally, she purposely behaves poorly in class. She still does well in his class (she thought it would irk him more that way) but she gets in trouble quite often. [b]Madison James Cordell:[/b] ☺ "Favorite teacher, hands down." She's not particularly into Herbology, but she does especially well in his class because he encourages her to be experimental and unconventional. Not all of the mentors are as openminded as him. He's also fun [i]and[/i] funny, a combination she can always appreciate. Emmy feels like they're on similar wavelengths and his quips never fail to amuse her. [/list] [/hider]
