One of the cheapest homeless shelters in Victorian London charged four pennies to sleep in a coffin. Which was... still better than sleeping upright against a rope? — Jordan / Lynn

This is: Bathsheba

Bathsheba Fortescue

80 | Gryffindor | UCPB Ghost |  Rep 8 | society (g)hostess

Bathsheba died of the Laughing Plague in 1884, but she doesn't let that stop her. She would like:

Family— Near, far, wherever you are. Calling anyone who could be a relation! She never had any children of her own, but had six magical sisters who all married (could have been into UC or MC families, pureblood or not!) and had families of their own, so if your family tree has room for a ___ née Lamb somewhere we can make a firm link there. Alternatively, Bathsheba has an interest in genealogy so can probably trace back links from her ancestors to yours if you want to go ~vague!

She would like to meet you, assess you, follow you around, and most definitely form opinions on you. Also generally meddle in your life. Has she been assigned to chaperone you because no one else can be bothered? Has she been bid to follow you about and cramp your style because you're a troublemaker in the family? Has she just taken a liking to you, and suddenly has a vested interest in your prospects? I'm down for all of the above!

Society sorts— Even if you're of no relation, Bathsheba has been a fixture of society for decades and expects continued invitations from everyone. If you snub her, she'll probably try and snub you back. She also hosts her own parties for the living from time to time, and expects everyone to behave as if there is nothing weird about this.

Spirit Div— she's relatively recent and modern and rational, but also very Demanding.

Enemies— reference the fact that she's dead or wearing a nightgown and she will loathe you.


I don't have any firm plans for her so I'm very open to just going with the flow and seeing what unfolds, so hit me if you have any vague desires to thread~

I really just want to see Timoleon Maxime fight with her? Because he'd be so disrespectful that I think it would be amusing.  They can just be enemies at UC events because he'd always bring up how she shouldn't be there.

Some others...
Juniper Edevane has a tendency to slip away from her chaperone because she can? She's also prone to hexing people at balls who piss her off, so fun to be had there. I feel like of all my characters she'd be the best bet to have a family tie, or the Foxwood/Alderton clan because there's a lot of them running around.  But, I'll leave that to Basil Foxwood lol

She and Meserimus are likely friends - she could even be one of his daughters or a niece - the large number of progeny would track

If not then the Flints and Blackwoods would be social connections

Nel might co-opt her assistance for chaperone help when she is in confinement with her latest spawn.

Isis could traumatise her with her unladylike behaviour

Please judge Charlotte for her choices with her daughter.

I also of course have numerous debutantes — Chandrima Meredeth is the only one Hogsmeade based, while Aurelia Bulstrode and Lucinda Bythesea both live primarily in London. And then I have. Josephine Beauchene. The veela. I'm open to threads with any of these five lovely ladies!

So the short answer is I am entertained by all of the things... so I've started a couple opens for any of y'all or anyone else to take, whoever fancies it~

Here and here, and probably more to come xD
