Charming

Hi strangers <3
So sad I’ve been MIA last several weeks But Life Happened. Anyway I’m determined to get back into the swing of things! I want plotty ideas/new directions/new threads with old friends. Please help me feel wanted because I am very validation-motivated and have struggled to get back on here because I feel guilty haaaaa.

~ A few thought starters ~

^{Status |} No way is she going anywhere, my baby. She’s got threads going but would like new ones as she’s easiest for me to write.
^{Story arc |} Coming of age story of a girl who charters her own path to success as a first gen immigrant of humble origin. She feels Dr. Frankenstein was misunderstood and unlucky.

• – I’d like to keep our current threads unless you feel its too stagnant! (Lynn thinking I can fast forward us cleverly because I do want a pretty bow to tie them up but also don’t mind starting something fresh in parallel) got your letter tag!
  
• ISO: a “job” that lets her work random hours, a discreet (not creepy) arrangement where her family doesn’t know but homegirl needs $ for future plot purposes. make her your Enola Holmes
  
• ISO: Flint institute connects. she’s spinning up a newspaper. Think academic college papers but the occasional subversive op-ed snuck in there about feminism. LMK if you’re intrigued
  
• ISO: Hurls strictly of the unexpected, unadvisable, unlikely, unrequited variety
  

^{Status |} Looking for fresh starts/clean slate, sorry if I let things die. She was meeting so many folks before, drat :’)
^{Story arc |} Story of healing where it’s felt impossible, redemption where it seemed unlikely, and freedom in art and self-expression. Oppty for Moulin Rouge vibe too if you’re into it

• I'm having dramatic thoughts about dramatic things that happen to people in dramatic affairs
  
• ISO: folks down to clown on a death book plot (that sounds weird) (anyway more of a pulse check before I slap up a thread or two on this) still interested? ?
  
• ISO: people to speak morbidly about death/love with and/or balletomanes, not necessarily the same convo lol
  
• ISO: drama and/or adventure and/or vaguely criminal activities
  

^{Status |} Might go retire in Paris a bit. I feel like I really need to push to get her established and older characters are hard to get going on Charming? Anyways if you’re as depressed about this as I am, HMU with whatever tickles your fancy. IDC what, some ideas include
- UC Someone to gossip with about others
- MC/UC Someone to be overheard gossiping about her
- Ministry, Newspaper, or Family Drama - any dramatic circus about her messy divorce after she’s apparently not-dead

^{Status |} Looking for a fresh start/clean slate or he’s going to go back to US for a bit. Had a strong romcom thing going before I disappeared! :')
^{Story arc |} bleeding heart man who has no gainful employment dreams of finding his soulmate who's like, okay with that? Uh but he's got a great personality. Vague Helena from midsummer nights dream vibes

• I am uncreepily waggling eyebrows in your direction
  
• ISO: bros and new/old buddies too pls
  
• ISO: adventures and/or private investigator things and/or awkwardly stepping on the toes of aurors doing real work
  

^{Status |} Looking for a fresh start/clean slate here as well as I’m in a bit of a rut with him.
^{Story arc |} golden boy with prestige and not a controversial thing about him proceeds to shock everyone with a future tremendous downfall and/or tragedy. Brief was Othello but make it VE magic and gay

• Fox we should sidebar soon on whatever we wanna do with and Vince!
  
• ISO: making him ‘golden boy’. Colleagues, bros, friends, general pop to be shocked later
  
• ISO: accidental gay signaling because he had a ~revelation at the end of last year about himself and idk I like the awkward/fleeting
  
• ISO: lady hurls for future heartbreaks oops
  

^{Status |} Doing good on threads. And freaking hilarious so, probably will look to continue old threads/wrap them for fresh things.
^{Story arc |} coming of age story of a boy who just met his real dad for the first time, finding himself a new family/home in a weird place, and wants revenge on his evil stepfather

• Anything with his 'found family' - might let that Xmas thread retire because I can't get my brain to work on that anymore, but I want him to have a sweet moment with dad, Stef whaddya think?
  
• Random ISO: Are you a rich person who would be going to Italy and for whatever reason did not notice a small boy stowing away in your bag? Cos that’d be funny and hey free tour guide with a hint of childish malice
  

Nolie my loooovveee <333 how I have missed you pls give me everything and anything

FOR IDA: is always looking to get into trouble! I could definitely see Ida maybe seeing her (or Mal seeing Ida) poking around something and they just kinda fall into some shenanigans? I could also see her and Adrienne getting along well!

FOR SOPHIA: Still interested, however depending on the timeline, Irene may need to go between a thread and letters! I'll DM you deets about what's happening for her >DDD

FOR DIANA: Adrienne is always available for threads! She also favors animals so I could see her being kind to Diana. Adrienne's middle name is also Diana xDD

FOR THOMAS: Always down for threads with Hestia! I want her to get into some trouble, maybe stick her nose in something it doesn't belong. I think I wanted Barbie and Tommy to find her eventually and patch her up xD

FOR CASSIAN: I'm down to start something new with Phie and him ooorrr hurl another of my ladies at him!

FOR MAX: All fine by me!! I adore Max, so lmk what Hestia can do to assist :D Irene isn't rich but she may be going abroad, so if Max wants to stow away in her luggage, I could see that being a proper adventure for her!

Nooliieeeee I has missed you!!

We should do Ida/Tillie book things! Tillie has some ~plans regarding her future that I'm sure she's bursting to tell someone about. Also Daffy can employ her in the flower shop if she wants

Can still offer Rhys for Max and Thomas if you like! Sloane for Max as well!

Happy to see you back!

Nolie <3 loooove you are back!

For Diana: My current older folks are and but I could also bring back if she'd make a good friend for you.

For Tommy: Please, please, please, I NEED a followup Carmy (Commy? Carry? Tora?)!
I think we said he and were friends and I would soooo be down for a thread for them.

For Cassian: I can happy hurl Ani at him as she is also in desperate need of plots. And Felix is available for whatever you may need him for *wink wink*

For Max: I will beg you for another Kitty Max thread. Just saying.
For stowaway I can totally have either or travel to Italy. Come to think of it I could also do or Hermione or Grace Riley or even make Kitty work (this last one seems so hilarious and I'm just chuckling). Anyway I looove this idea and so want to be a part of it.

Yes. <3 Good to skim ahead to wrap the old Ford/Ida soon, would love something more recent - I signed Ford up for the Potts roulette thing so perhaps there? Or wherever/whenever, I absolutely want to continue their weirdness though ~

Oz/Soph: you know I'm down for drama <3 In a recent thread I casually mentioned that they're still seeing each other but Oz hasn't done much of note lately so we can figure out what's been up with them!

some ~options!!~

Ida: If you're interested in threading her with again, Crick is currently engaging in operation Not a Debutante & would be intrigued by talking to Ida about her scholarship! is a halfblood, but interests include suffrage and high-level transfiguration.

Sophia: I have The Wife at your disposal whenever you would like to have a weirdly loaded thread. also loves death.

Diana: is a reporter for newspaper drama needs!

Thomas: lives next door to and occasionally tries to punch Barnabas. So there's that. I also could see him being bros with !

Cassian: used to head the DMLE, is now the Minister, does poke around in the DMLE still; Ivy is an auror with an extremely different life & general personality to him so I think that could be interesting too!

Maxwell should meet Ivy when he's home for the summer because she will. Hate that.

Ahhh. Y’all are just lovely. ;w; Thanks for the warm welcome back~

Lady!

• /Diana for bonding over cats and unsolicited marriage advice? xD I could start something
  
• Irene/Soph catchup chat in either letters/threads if she wants to talk about things? Soph will be delighted for her/hype her to adventure
  
• Anyone/Cass c: Lady’s choice~! We had that pond thread but don’t mind something new/whatever random play by ear
  
• Malice/Ida Stop I LOVE. They’re both curious types. Ida saw a lot of murders last year so maybe that’s how they were oddly introduced? Could see them getting shooed out of a bar where they don’t want women or something and both girls banding together to try and revenge hahaha
  
• Adrienne/Ida I think we decided were friendly in school! If she ever wants someone to reminisce with/vent to
  
• Hestia/Max next month/summertime once he’s outta school!
  Same for Irene because this stowaway idea is hilarious!
  

Bee!

• Rhys should catch Thomas once he has an affair that goes wrong and gets blisteringly drunk/out of hand!
  
• Sloane/Max I’m 10/10 following up on their cute letter and maybe he sucks up the courage to talk to her last day of school bahahaha
  
• Ida/Tillie gossipy times I’m always down!

Fallin!

• Carmmy! YUS let’s do a followup pleaseee. Everett too, Tommy says it’s good to be friends with a lawyer haha! you start one I start one?
  
• Laurel/Diana should get chatting during the Potts event! Observing ~happenings
  
• Ani/Cass can be cute! I imagine she’d be very pleasant and therefore disarming bahahaha
  Felix/Cass will keep in my back pocket for an occasion!
  
• Kitty/Max should catch up before the year is up!
  Will followup in May about stowaway! I’m laughing at the idea of Kitty getting roped into this

Lynn!

• Will reply /Ida then we should chat next meetup premise! I mean they can always be party buddies haha
  
• Will DM you ideas on Ozyphia!

Fox!

• My love <3 Will DM you! Expect a random letter to Bean too
  
• l/Ida whenever you’re ready! Academic thing chased by a lamenting drunk thing seems on brand though she swore she’s not drinking again after a fiasco with amortentia (false)

Beanie we LOVE options!

• Zelda/Ida could be great! Complaining about misogyny and then rea
  
• /Soph totally sparked an idea. If someone touched a cursed/weird object would she be the right type of healer for that? That someone can be Soph or someone Soph is there with
  
• Will keep Kiernan in back pocket if Diana sticks around! She wants to tell her side of the story/drum up support for her ex giving her alimony
  
• Tom and Cass I might approach the same way! Throw up an open bar and /work respectively and you could see if one of them fits?
  Ivy/anyone appeals to me a lot because she’s such a hard contrast and that is just. Delightful haha. Tom is apparently always around at Barb’s house so he’s basically her neighbor too
  
• Expect Max the Menace this summer

Sounds good! Let me know when you're ready and if you need me to start something! ❤️❤️

Wheee love it all! Why don't we start with:

— Irene/Soph: Irene can ask Soph about her options after she receives the letter? I could start :D
— Phie/Cass: I really do wanna see how they work out together, but I'd definitely like something newer!
— Malice/Ida: YES SAME. They definitely could have met last year after Silas' death maybe?

Hestia/Max and Irene/Max can be next month! Will also DM you so we can chat more in depth!

Re Sina - yes! That is absolutely her deal.

Let me know which you want first and I'm happy to add a starter to my list!

Yes, yes, and yes. To all the threads. I'll start whichever threads you'd like. Just let me know on discord which one you have more or less muse for and I'll get to it.

I'll get the Laurel thread rolling for you

This has made my day <3

Hi Nolie <3

— Ida: Happy to continue Endymion/Ida, I'll revive next time I do his posts~

— Soph: is trying to reinvent herself as an actress a bit and hangs around with arty degenerate types generally so I think she should get to know Soph! She also has thoughts on death/love/etc if you catch her on a rare flight of philosophy xD

— Diana: Okay, is her relative if they wanna ~reconnect. Also he would like to tease her about being a cat all that time because he thinks that's hilarious. ALSO: has a vendetta? of some kind against Leo Maxime so would like to do some subtle or not-so-subtle digging about him socially, so chatting with Diana could be fun xD

— Thomas: was also a Slytherin, a couple of years above and formerly UC but with a habit of gravitating towards WC/less prejudiced types. His base nowadays is the Augurey Beak Cafe in London and Tommy seems like enough of an open-minded idealist that Jude might try and nudge him towards activism things? xD
Also if you would like to unsuspectingly meet him without knowing anything about his and Caro's history, I'm down~

— Cassian: Evander/Trystan for Ministry colleague types, Trystan is def more sociable xD also was also a quidditchy Gryffindor, couple years below. Also for "socially friendly" or something, he's got threadz with your sister~

— Max: just to say lol i love our Jimmy&Max antics already xD

Basically up for anything, lots of mine need new threads atm so let me know which you want <3
