Did you know?
The Language of the Flowers was a popular method to express feelings where words might be improper, but did you know other means of doing so? Some ladies used their parasols, as well as their fans, gloves, and hankies to flirt with a gentleman (or alternatively, tell them to shove it!). — Bree ( Submit your own)

APPEARANCE
Standing at an unimpressive height of five feet, seven inches, it's likely that Eldin will grow another two or three inches before hitting full maturity. He has a lean, athletic build and fancies himself attractive, though isn't inclined towards vanity. He wears fine clothes appropriate for someone of his age and station, though his outfits could be considered conservative; he avoids bright colors, flashy patterns, nontraditional accessories, or anything considered trendy.
His hair is medium brown and kept short, the corners usually upturning into slight curls. His eyes are a similar chestnut shade and look warm against a fair complexion. He wields his wand with his left hand.

❧ He supports the Wimbourne Wasps in quidditch for obvious reasons.

HISTORY
Baby Bones
1871 | Eldin is born the second (but first surviving) son of Henry and Annabelle Bones. He is an easy enough child, if not an unusually quiet one; this leads to talk of illness that ultimately proves fruitless.
1872 | A younger sister, Vesta, joins the family and proves the final one—at least for now. At such a young age and with a nanny doting on him at every hour, he is blissfully unaware this his mother has gone to pursue a healing internship at St. Mungo's.
1874 | His toddler years prove uneventful compared to those of other children: there are no untimely family deaths, no early signs of magic, and no drama that endures in his long-term memory. He does, however, show an early interest in books, art, and anything that catches his eyes; he's soon decorating his bedroom with his poorly-drawn scribbles of dragons. He also labels them with their (incorrectly-spelled) proper breeds and everything because he wants to show just how smart he is!
1875 | His fourth birthday comes with a party that would ultimately be the place his first sign of magic makes an appearance. It's dragon-themed—obviously—and he animates one of the toy dragons in a fit of glee!
1876 | After an evening of sneaking leftover desserts into his bedroom, he wakes to find his walls crawling with ants. Horrified by the sudden invasion, he has to admit to his crime; the house staff is luckily able to rid of the insects before they cause the five-year-old anymore trauma. He still hates bugs.
1877 | He doesn't take the move to Hogsmeade very well, but is quickly placated by the gift of a toy broomstick by a relative (Beckett? It was probably Beckett.). This coincides with his discovery of quidditch—a sport he'd grow to love even more as an adolescent.
1880 | Rosamund goes off to Hogwarts. Boo.
1881 | Nearing the age of ten and the end of his patience, Eldin decides he's going to be a magizoologist. Then a quidditch player. Then an artist. Then a healer because that's what his mother does. And then a Ministry employee because that's what Responsible Adult Men™ do. He never decides, not really. One thing's for certain: becoming a gentleman of leisure is likely not in his future.
Hogwarts Years
1883 | After receiving his Hogwarts letter and supplies list during the summer, Eldin goes off to Hogwarts in September. Like his mother, Eldin finds himself in Slytherin. His academic career begins much like he'd expected—his grades shift depending on where his current interests lie, and he succeeds in the classes he enjoys most. He plans on trying out for quidditch, but ultimately oversleeps the morning of tryouts #oops.
1884 | Eldin's father (along with Aunt Gladys) meets his untimely demise at the hands of the Hogsmeade laughing plague, leaving him without a father and in deep mourning. Come September, Vesta joins him at Hogwarts in ----- house. He makes it to Slytherin quidditch tryouts this time around and finds himself on the team as a beater when the rosters are released. His mother is promoted to head of her department and his brother Beckett is born in the winter. 1884 definitely qualifies as the year shit hit the fan.
1885 | Aunt Louisa dies, which means an even lengthier mourning. On the bright side, he adds three electives—Ancient Runes, Arithmancy, and Divination—to his course load and finds the first to be his favorite of all his classes. He soon finds himself checking out extra books on the subject in his spare time!
1887 | Shit hits the fan in the magical world once again, but at least he loses no relatives...?
Presently | Trying not to die in the fog. Hoping his mother doesn't die while she parades through Irvingly on the Ministry's expedition. Awaiting his OWL results with high hopes.
YOU LIKELY KNOW...
❧ Despite his family's wealth, his mother has a career—and a successful, high-paying one at that.

Plot Preferences:
POSTING | My posts tend to run between 80 and 300 words on average, but can be shorter or longer depending on what I'm given to work with. I prefer faster-paced threads and love rapid-fire style posting.
CONTENT LIMITS | I won't write out gory scenes or ones that depict non-consensual sexual interactions. I don't mind normal smut, but only if the relationship is established and there's a plot or character-driven need for it in a thread.
PLOTTING | I prefer organic development for romantic relationships, but have no problem pre-plotting friendships and work relationships.
THREADS | I prefer not to have basic "meet-and-greet" threads because they get tiring quickly, especially when I have twenty of them at the same time. Anyways, my favorite ships and friendships have blossomed out of wacky or traumatic action threads ;)
