THE CHARACTER
PERSONALITY
Billy is a very optimistic person. Some may like the word naive here instead of optimistic, but he won’t hear them anyways. He always sees the world half full, or is that the glass? To him there are great possibilities. While he may not love everything about life, he is human after all, he’s really enthralled with his life. Him! A wizard Billy! His whole world changed the day he got the letter to Hogwarts and he was very excited to follow his family's footsteps. In fact, not to brag too much, but like his mother, he was sorted into Hufflepuff.
Aside from being optimistic, he’s very much a follower. He latches on to people, sometimes in an overbearing way, but mostly out of love. If he adores you, he wants to spend time with you.
Billy will always have your back though. If you are his friend he supports you no matter the circumstance. Even when he questions your motives, he finds a way to tell you something about the situation that is right in your favor. He doesn’t like people feeling like they are lost or they don’t have something to blame when the world is out of their control. “She gave me a poor grade because I didn’t hit the page mark,” you might say. “Well, the page mark was unreasonable,” he’ll offer to make you smile. “Next one you’ll get.”
Lastly, Billy doesn’t always know when he’s getting into danger. He tends to just say something before realizing what he’s said and then gets afraid. He’s likely to walk into accidental danger – the wrong group of friends, the forest, somewhere else later in life, but he’s also likely to make unsuspecting friends because he rarely knows what he’s stumbled upon until someone spells it out for him.
He’s ultimately, what we call, a goober.
HISTORY
Billy Malcolm is the first and only child born to Amber Malcolm and Taj Aaberg. Amber and Taj had always been friends in school, or so it’s been said, but then when they hit their summer after graduating they… made choices. Not too much longer later, Amber found out she was pregnant. It took her a lot of time to decide if she was going to be a mother or not, but ultimately she decided that she would.
Taj wasn’t actually aware of Billy’s existence until he was about three. Billy doesn’t really remember the time prior to Taj being in his life, so he wasn’t scared by the series of events that occurred in his youth. But, what he knows is his mother sent a letter to Taj when she had become pregnant. Somehow, some person mistook the letter for fan mail and there it sat for years before he got to opening it.
This was clearly more devastating for Amber than it was for Billy. He instead has very fond memories of his father. He’d show up unexpectedly with extravagant gifts as if to say “I know I’m gone a lot and don’t know you at all, but here are these really cool things.” When got old enough, he always had a seat at the quidditch game, and he’d wear the most obnoxious colors and be very vocal about who his father was. Unless Taj messed up, then he’d claim he didn't know him that well.
Billy was raised by a village, and it probably wouldn’t have worked if he wasn’t. His mother worked a lot at first for them, and he spent lots of days with the grandparents. When Taj got involved, that meant all the Aabergs got involved, and suddenly there were a lot more free babysitters who wanted to be around him.
Billy thrived on the attention, and he loved every moment of it. It was probably because of all the attention that he continued to like attention all through school. He was definitely the class clown kind of person, trying to get a laugh out of anyone, because other people smiling and laughing made him smile and laugh.
Billy made friends easily, though some people are still unsure how his friendships are sustainable since they are so large and wide across the board. But, he liked school. Well, correctly, he liked magic, and if he had to go to school to learn magic, then he would.
Billy wasn’t the best student, but the school seemed to think he has leadership skills. At the start of his fifth year, he was asked to be prefect, and based on his mother’s encouragement, he accepted the role. He was not the best prefect, but it got him something to put on his very limited resume of things.
Now that he’s graduated from Hogwarts, he’s not really sure what he wants to do. Everyone else around him seemed to have a plan, but he just kind of found himself asking Taj if he could move in and get to know him better while he figured it out.
What a ride this will be.
