Hi Elvi it's nice to meet you!
For Thea, I'm pleased to inform you Ida also has opinions! <3 The two have a lot more in common than I think Ida would care to admit for someone so young.
Just a few ideas below, but they should have a meeting soon! Random thoughts why...
* In an ideal world she'd pursue exactly the path Thea has done, research/academia. She's a Transfig natural and hopes to co-author with @Basil Foxwood one day, and eventually author her own research - already has an IC thesis! Unlike Thea however her father/family is very much not supportive of an academic career, she was barely allowed to stay in Hogwarts. So if Thea can help Ida make the case for her future that would be amazing! Right now she's gotten lessons on how to 'pick her battles' with @"Natsuko Mountbatton" and Dorothea Twycross among her tightknight dormmates: Poppy, Giselle, Pippa. She's still too righteous and not very tactful.
* Key difference with Thea is also she's very opposed to marriage. Her only frame of reference was the way her dad limited her mom, and her mom died from an accident Ida feels would've been preventable if her mom was more magic-literate. The death happened Ida's 2nd > 3rd year, so I think she might've rejected Thea at first (too maternal-feeling after her loss..?). She dropped Ancient Studies after OWLs... Did well in the exam, but she likes more of the mathematics/equations.
Otherwise, for either Oakby or Thea I have... Thomas Harvey for any or a) private/discrete investigations with Barnabas Beck or b) partyboy cocktail making bartender ...? needs. OR @"Sophia Voss", she's new and could easily connect with ballet/art lovers.
