Ella Grimm
MCHB | Future Quidditch Star
Hogwarts Arrival 1893 | rep 8 | child

Introducing Ella Grimm, the supposed-to-be-hilarious-short-term-plot-turned-11-year-old-child.

She wasn't supposed to stick around, but Everett was apparently a sap and so here we are. Please love her.

Friends | Perky and gregarious, Ella is generally an easygoing kid. She has an adventurous side, matched by an innate curiosity, these qualities do not not often outweigh her responsible side, but it's hard to balance. As the oldest of seven, she knows when to push boundaries and when to stick to the rules; though she does like to toe the line. Her father works in the ministry in the Broom Regulatory Office and her mother is a fairly-famous retired quidditch star.

Hogsmeade | Against her Governess' warnings, Ella and her BFF Flopsy the house elf pretty much have their run of Bartonburg and High Street. Ella is rarely seen without Flopsy (or her broom!) outside of the house and nobody really tends to question this. Adventurous and outgoing, Ella will chat with just about anybody about anything. She frequents the bakery and Honeyduke's but tends to make herself known wherever she goes.

Bullies | Ella is fairly easy to get along with, but her parentage is also Not a Secret, so there may be a local kid or two who have something to say about that.

Plot Nugget | Ella thinks this flying ban is BULLSHIT. Let's discuss.

She's back to get some groundwork before school starts!

I know there are quite a few newish/other incoming firsties/local Hogsmeade kiddos to make connections with!

I think everything that was here before was taken care of, except Eros Mohr if that still interests you Kit!

I don't remember what the thing with Eros was but whatever it was, it likely does? XD I also have Lincoln now who is an incoming second year!

General Hogsmeade quidditchy things was the theme for Eros! I should have left the post but I went on a rampage, sorry XD I'm strongly thinking Ella is leaning Gryffindor for Sorting, so there's that too! She'll be trying out for any open house positions wherever she lands!

Link was on the list of possibilities too! Down to thread with either!

Would she possibly be interested in being friends with Autumn Fairfax ? She's also an incoming first year.

Yes!! They seem pretty similar in disposition, so I can easily see them getting along! Do you want to have them run into one another maybe in Diagon Alley beforehand sometime?

Sure! We could do a thing where they're doing some pre-Hogwarts shopping?

I can offer Charley for any bad influencing in Hogsmeade before Ella goes away to school this fall. She might have something to say about brooms vs rooftops, too.

OMG STEPH HOW DID I MISS YOU?! I'm so sorry.

But yes. It looks like James' mum and Ella's mum were in school together, if she attended Hogwarts? Maybe the kids became childhood friends early, or met previously during his Hogsmeade wanderings? They both have sort of ~sordid histories, so I can see them bonding over that!

Ella is often running around town with her house elf in tow, I can easily see her bumping into Charley and inviting her over for dinner xD there's seven kids in her house, what's one more?

James' mum did go to Hogwarts! Ella and James could totally be childhood friends. Also it just occurred to me that James' mum is called "Ellie" in the family making their names very close. XD

Yasss, do you want to start some summer shenanigans? I can get Ella just about anywhere!

Could do a dinner, too. Charley has one dress, though it's not in very good condition anymore, so apologies in advance for any embarrassment on Ella's part there.

You think that might be after comparing notes the best way to travel at heights? Or another such encounter around Hogsmeade?

I think it would take a lot to embarrass Ella or anyone else in her house realistically, her dad has a Reputation after all (for having two bastard kids lol), I think she would just want to make sure Charley had a good meal every now and then! Otherwise I'm down for anything, Ella and Flopsy are super easy to get around town!

I'm down, pick one and let me know if you want me to start! Think Toby and Ella would know one another from growing up in Hogsmeade?
