Hello and welcome to my plot page. my name is Jen, and I am as crazy as they come. I have major character creation issues, but I will do my best to keep things in check, for my own sanity if nothing else. I am open to all sorts of plots, even the ones you wouldn't think someone would be interested in. I have done some crazy things to my characters and am never shy about fucking their and your lives up with this feels machine. Just tag whatever character you want to plot with, and we can get this train going.
Will is one of those love/hate guys. If you've known him long enough, you know what he's likes and know he isn't as bad as he comes off as. But, if you only met him recently, you might think he was a total git. And, sometimes, it's rightfully so. He lost his wife a couple of years ago to a rare disease that currently has no cure. He's been in a funk since, though that isn't for the lack of trying by many who know him to get him out of it.
Who is up for that challenge?
HE NEEDS: really good friends (2-3), old school friends that he is still chummy with, new work people, new enemies (because he's just an asshole)
SHIPS IN HIS LIFE:MACHA O'KEEFFE (future things), @hadoland (work-related acquaintance)
Lane is a quiet type. She tends to stick to herself and is either at home or at work. She works a lot since she has nothing else to take up her time. She would like some friends but isn't very good with social interactions. She will blame her mother for that, though; she was always forced to be around other pro-pureblood children when she was younger, and then she spent most of her Hogwarts days studying to try and appease her mother. That never happened, and she is all alone now.
Let's change that, shall we?
SHE NEEDS: good friends (1-3), work friends, casual friends/acquaintances, former (pro-pureblood} friends, former school enemies, possible former hateship turned future loveship? 9i have a want ad for this here)
SHIPS IN HER LIFE: @damon (like a brother, colleague, fellow wolf), EVANDER FINNLY (used to bully him, enemies, future things)
BRAYDEN RICHARSON - 35 - pure/animagus (raven) - transfiguration professor - straight - single
So Brayden is one of those guys you meet and know he is not a take him home to meet mom and dad kind of guy. He is upfront about disliking romantic entanglements and will not hesitate to make a clean break if a woman starts to get clingy. That said, the right woman would easily make him think twice. But does she even exist? She does, but he'll deny that to the end of time.
He has worked at Hogwarts for the last five years and is pretty well-liked by most staff. He's got a sharp tongue but doesn't always use it. He doesn't take crap from his students and runs a tight ship. He makes it clear what he expects from the start and does not offer any leniencies.
HE NEEDS: friends, students to mentor, casual things
SHIPS IN HIS LIFE:REGINA GRANT (complicated af), DEMI GRANT (unknown daughter)
ODETTE HARMON - 34 – half-blood – head magical games & sports - straight - single
Odette, or Odie as she prefers to be called by everyone, is a former Quidditch star from a legacy family. Her father played for the Montrose Magpies for several decades before he retired, and she followed right along after him, though she played for the Appleby Arrows. After an injury that left her partially blind in her left eye, she started working for Magical Games & Sports within the Ministry. Eventually, she became the head of the department and has been doing a bang-up job so far.
SHE NEEDS: girlfriends, guy friends, old Quidditch friends/rivals
SHIPS IN HER LIFE:PHILLIP ABBOTT (something in the future), CODY KALETA (colleague - works under her)
Meredith is the new matron of Hogwarts, taking up the post as its new healer after Poppy Pomfrey finally retired. She spent twenty-five (25) years working at St. Mungo's before finally returning to Hogwarts. She was ecstatic to be offered the position and started at the start of the 2023-2024 school year.
SHE NEEDS: friends (old and new), enemies (old and new), flirtations, hookups, something more/less
Is this MACHA O'KEEFFE's wanted? If so I have Ferris here who is her work nemesis. He wants her job, doesn't think she deserves it, and despite secretly being Canadian wants to be President (I know - absurd!). He can be a jerk but is way more smarmy/politician-like about it. He pops up every now and then and right now he's giving Macha backhanded compliments at a party.
Milo might be interesting here, he certainly goes abroad often enough and Gringotts might be considered a sovereign nation anyway. I can definitely see more than once he/the bank would have need for a lawyer like Fitz when they are doing expeditions in other countries; that can't be anything less than a pain in the ass to navigate. I'm willing to bet the bank didn't exactly wait for permission in a lot of cases too. Maybe he even has some dirt on Milo himself?

@ferris, IT IS!!!!! And omg I love that. I cannot wait to see all that come to fruition! I am all for this. Perhaps they actually get along at first, maybe they can somewhat bond of their mutual dislike of Macha. Because there will be no love lost between these two at the beginning.
But, with that happening down the line, maybe they will become more nemesis than friendly since will's feelings toward Macha will change, which could easily strain the somewhat friendship he and Ferris have.
@hadoland, I am more than sure the lawyers within the International Magical Cooperation office and Gringotts cross paths. And I am sure Will has known Milo long enough to know not to trust him while also knowing he's damn good at his job. I am all for some sort of weird work-related friend/hate-ship.
DELANEY ZABINI -- Katya is not a quiet witch, so these two would be opposites for sure, but she definitely caught Katya's eye. There might be a bit of a crush here, even if but from afar.
BRAYDEN RICHARSON -- This dark and brooding demeanor is right up Katya's alley, and she wants to test this man's limits. Perhaps they crossed paths in Hogsmeade and struck up a conversation? She would instantly be attracted to him as both a friend and romantic partner.

@katya
& DELANEY ZABINI: I would love to see how these two interact. It might be fun to have Katya make Delaney feel uncomfortable. Lane doesn't think of girls like that, but it would be funny as hell to see if she gets flustered or just lets it roll off her shoulders.
& BRAYDEN RICHARSON: I am so down for this. He is going to need that coming up. let's thread them!
DELANEY ZABINI - both work at St. Mungo's - sure that Delaney has had a patient that has needed some counseling, so if nothing else at least professional contacts.
