Did You Know?
Braces, or suspenders, were almost universally worn due to the high cut of men's trousers. Belts did not become common until the 1920s. — MJ
Had it really come to this? Passing Charles Macmillan back and forth like an upright booby prize?

"Reference My Characters" Canons
#1
So confession time: I love when another player feels comfortable enough to reference my character. For instance when Bee's Quin got a bottle of wine from Percy and Annabeth on his wedding night.

Another confession: I feel awkward referencing others' characters in case I step over a line or write something wrong. But I really want to because it makes the world of Charming so much more vibrant in my opinion. So I usually just pick on my own characters.

Which is where this thread comes into play.

I have a couple canons about some of my characters that I assume everyone who interacts with them knows. Likely you're just like me though and nervous to do so. SO I've started this thread as a place to list these out (I'll be adding more for my characters as I think about it). If there is something here feel free to reference it in your own threads. Hope this helps to add some depth and confidence in your writing!

Xoxo,
Fallin

Sisse
  • Sisse is an avid letter writer. If you are friends with her you can assume you get a letter a week if you don't see her in person. This includes Lester, Ned, and Cam as well as any current or former dorm mates or anyone who is considered a friend.
  • Sisse makes homemade Christmas cards every year for her friends
  • Sisse is often found in the library at Hogwarts
  • If you are near her she will likely start up a conversation with you and have lots of smiles and nice things to say

Laurel
  • Laurel sends her daughters boquets of flowers with meanings regarding wisedom, learning, and luck before school exams
  • Laurel knows everyone on high street and tries to stay up to date with their love lives
  • If she's heard a rumor about someone and knows they aren't a good person but they are wooing a young lady and sending a bouquet through her shop she will sneak in a few flowers that have the meaning of "warning" or something that indicates the lady should be on guard
  • Has "adopted" several children into her family. Namely Jack Dorset and Sisse Thompsett.
  • If one of her daughters brought you home with them she will treat you like family
  • If her daughters are having a hard time she makes them boquets for their bedrooms
  • The night before one of her daughters' weddings she will sit them down for the talk with a bottle of wine, some bread, cheese, and their favorite treat and then give them way too much detail and also include that sex can be fun. The unmarried daughters know this happens but no nothing about the actual conversation other than it is about the wedding night

Dahlia
  • Often sneezes when exposed to dahlias

Lottie
  • Is often barefoot at home
  • Her voice is often so quiet you may miss what she said
  • She will trail off in the middle of a conversation - be aware

Malou
  • Usually introduces herself as Marie if her first name comes up
  • Speaks quietly but firmly
  • Gave her stepson a candle nightlight of Hogwarts
  • Always says goodnight to her step children at bedtime by coming to their room and checking on them

Toby
  • Often includes Shakespeare quotes and monologues and will use stage actions and stage voice when he does so - definitely doesn't mind drawing attention

Percy
  • Often has a scowl on
  • Is usually a wallflower at social events and avoiding conversations
  • Teases Quin and Mason
  • Walks with a cane and occasionally has a limp
