Re-introducing: Kits 1892 Graduates
#1
Lynn once mentioned that student characters that graduate should be re-introduced since their possibilities obviously change a bunch after they graduate. So here are my graduates from 1892~

Aleksei's ooc pronouns are they/them. They are non-binary with a strong inclination towards the female side of the spectrum. But is perceived as male. Aleksei is very naive and sweet. They still want to believe the best of the world around them. In adulthood, Aleksei doesn't quite know what to do for an occupation so is taking advantage of their wealth to simply travel around and explore.

School Connections: Aleksei was a hufflepuff from 1885-1892. Their NEWT classes were Alchemy, Care of Magical Creatures, Charms, DADA, Herbology, Potions & Transfiguration. They were also prefect and the art club president during the last three years of their schooling. They were also active in the Art, Garden and Potion clubs. They were also in the art and music classes.

Friends: Aleksei is a very friendly person and willing to befriend most anyone if they are not prejudiced.

Flirtations: Aleksei is only attracted to males. They have a particular preference towards men that are stronger than they are. Though given how puny Aleksei is, that could be almost anyone. Very open here!

LGBTQIA+ Connections: I would love for Aleksei to find more LGBTQIA+ people so that they can feel less alone in the world. Right now, they don't really know anyone else within the spectrum and it has been an alienating time for Aleksei.

Victorian Apollo
Aristide is an individual who tends to be lost in his own head most of the time. He is an artistic, creative and sensitive soul. He is now mostly operating as an artist, poet, musician, and other such things.

School Connections: Aristide was a Ravenclaw from 1885 to 1892. Her NEWT classes were Ancient Runes, Ancient Studies, Charms, DADA, History of Magic, Potions & Transfiguration.

Friends: He is very selective when it comes to his friendships. Most of his friends tend to have made friends with Adrienne first and end up being Aristides as well by proximity if he likes them well enough. Thus most of his friends would also be mutual friends with @"Adrienne Selwyn"

Flirtations: Aristide has harboured feelings for his best friend for a long time now. I am open to other possibilities though! He is pansexual with a preference towards males. (Especially one named Asa Scabior)

Crowdy Memorial Library Junior Librarian & Aspiring Author
Cane is another daydreamer of mine whose nose tends to always be stuck in book. He is generally kind but can also be bluntly honest. He is also indifferent to a lot of things and can be rather oblivious. He is a loner by choice.

School Connections: Cane was a Ravenclaw from 1885 to 1892. Her NEWT classes were Astronomy, Charms, Care of Magical Creatures, Herbology, Ghoul Studies & Transfiguration. He was active in the book, chess and history clubs and was male president of the book club.

Friends: They would likely be mostly other people from his clubs as well as ones with appreciation for literary works. He isn't too fussed though so long as they understand that he won't always be up to hanging out.

Flirtations: I have no idea what Cane's sexuality is though he has harboured crushes on males in the past. Very open to exploring things here and seeing where they go.

Quidditch Referee
Wally comes from a Quidditch loving family and he is no different from them. His love for it did not quite translate to playing skill, however. It took a long while but Wally came to accept that and has found a way to be involved in the Quidditch industry in his own way. He is full of adventure and does not take life too seriously except for on rare occasions. 

School Connections: Wally was a Gryffindor from 1885 to 1892. He played for Beater for the Gryffindor team from 1891-1892. His NEWT classes were Care of Magical Creatures, Charms, Defense and the Dark Arts, & Transfiguration. Wally was also active in the Flying and Quidditch Clubs.

Friends: Wally is pretty open so this could be any range of personalities. Likely no one too much older than him who would have nothing in common though. Some would likely have crossover with his little sister, Sloane Bixby - at the very least, he would know of and be kind to most of her friends.

Flirtations: I have no idea but I am open to exploring!




aleksei is non-binary. in ooc narrative, aleksei goes by they/them, IC people would percive them as he/him

For Ari: If he took art in his final year, Terence Higgs would have been his teacher. With the summer break Terence is willing to mentor/instruct any artistic person in more advanced forms of art (ie nudes, non-traditional art, etc.). Terence is also very open minded and has known various people in the past in the LGBTQLA+ people so would accept Ari for who he is.

#3
Maybe if Aleksei was into the art scene in England they could run into Emrys? I can't see Emrys being attracted to someone so young but he could certainly introduce them to the lgbtqia scene. I kind of like the idea of Emrys adopting a queer teen tbh...

Aristide did take art! He's taken it since his first year. He would be glad to take his professor up on that offer. Aleksei would also love to take him up on that. Aleksei was also Art Club president and is less reserved than Aristide so might already be mildly familiar with Professor Higgs. <3 They're both obviously very private about their queerness but if their interactions lead to a friendship with a high amount of trust enough they confide in Higgs, they'd both appreciate Higgs for being accepting. <3

Oooh, I love this idea. <3 They're muggleborn with no other family connections in the wizarding world so definitely would look up to Emrys as an older wizarding adult in general. Probably not the best role model for them to have but who's gonna be picky xD

I have Gus Lissington as a potential friendly face for Aleksei. Gus is gay but he's super in love with someone else lol. He's not open about it, for obvious reasons, but is also the DADA professor, so they know each other at least.

I can also offer up Clifford Hillicker for exploration, or even a friend for Wally. They were both in Gryffindor in '85, as Cliff left after his OWLs that year. But they both like quidditch, and Cliff would be so thankful someone he knew didn't go professional. (It's his dream but it didn't pan out for him lol). Cliff is brash and pretty rude, so wouldn't be surprised if he voiced that.

Terence will be happy to take one or both, whichever you prefer. Most likely Terence would have mentioned it in the last day of class or simply posted it where all students could see. There will be postings in other places, likely anywhere one would get art supplies or the local art community in any of the main magical towns and Diagon Alley.

These are more informal classes, usually a fee is involved but Terence adjusts it according to his pupils means. If they don't have much money, he'll simply get them to help out around the studio (setting up canvases, prepping paints etc, that sort of thing). He does it more for the love of art and helping talented artists to get their work out there.
