Time to get this woman back out there!

I've linked the relevant threads if you'd like more context, and if you wanna read the whole saga of Irene's time in Italy, they're numbered on Irene's thread log xDD BUT TO SUM UP THE LAST YEAR: Irene's life in Hogsmeade was never something she thought was going to last forever, however what she didn't expect was to fall in love with one of her best friends, Elias Grimstone. Having been jilted at the altar previously, she kept this in for quite some time, choosing to pine from a distance while Elias fell in love with Daffodil. Just when she couldn't take being in the same town anymore, a letter arrived for her telling her she's just been the recipient of an inheritance (thanks ATO xD). She subsequently moved from Working to Middle Class. In order to get everything sorted, she had to travel to Italy to meet a distant cousin.

She thought this was a great time to kill two birds with one stone: Leave Hogsmeade forever and oh also tell Elias she was in love with him via a letter that should have been posted a few days after she was gone. Of course, that didn't pan out the way. Broken hearted, Irene left for Italy without saying goodbye to a majority of the people in Hogsmeade that she knew, and disappeared. In Italy, she attended art classes and met quite a few new friends. Once she returned home, she was met with a welcome in the form of a dragon attack on London. She was on the ship and subsequently knocked unconscious when a mast fell and hit her. She was in a coma from September to December, and one of her friends (Rémy Toulouse) from Italy came to find her. After waking up, she was visited visited by an obliviator something is...off about her. >D

AND WITH THAT, I'd like for her to get back out there in society in ALL the ways.

• FRIENDS: Irene was often seen in Hogsmeade before she left for Italy, so really anyone in Hogsmeade who was friendly would likely know her (or know of her, she was the lady who could, on occasion, be seen running through the streets with a large painting in her hands).
  
• PATRONS: She used to work at the The Magical Portrait Gallery of England as a restorer; in addition to that, she had clients
  
• HURLS: GIVE ME EVERYTHING >D What ever it is, fair warning it'll end up being at the very least, a slow burn; Irene won't be quick to fall in love again, and in fact will do everything in her power to NOT succumb to that. Buuut I'd like for someone to give her a wake up call that love isn't such a bad thing after all. Bonus points if you have a large family; her mother and father died, she has no siblings, and even her distant cousin, bless her, is content to stay in Italy so she's kinda got no family around her. What the girl needs is to be wrapped up in a huge blanket and just tossed into a chaotic family and forced to adjust. Pls help her, otherwise she'll be content with being by herself for the rest of her days.
  
• NEW FRIENDS: Irene's moved to London, renting a room in a building owned by one of her friends' families. Joining her in the building her are her friends from Italy: Rémy, Hélène and her daughter, Molly and Mateo. I'd also love for her to get to know more people around London! She has her clients from before, but I'd also love for her to make new friends too <3

as of 20 Dec 1893, Irene's hair is cut short above her shoulders

Emrys Selwyn is an art patron (not just for the risqué kinds of art)

So I heard you say "chaotic family" in the hurling section, can I interest you in Ezra Applegate?

I have various Hogsmeade folks but those seem less interesting comparatively.

Set by Lady!

I have potential friends! She and Bronwyn Moony would have been in the same year at Hogwarts, though Winnie was a Ravenclaw. Win used to live in London, but moved to Pennyworth, but she still works in London sometimes. She's also recently heartbroken, so they have that in common

Bram Colson was a fellow Gryffindor the year above her, he's super easy going and loves travel, so would want to hear about her time in Italy. As a muggleborn who was sort of cast out, he can emphasize with the doing life alone sort of if thing, too.

Dean Hudson was a Gryffindor the year below! Super flirtatious, but probably not anything serious, he's got commitment issues. Makes for a good friend generally!

I thought "oh hey, she was in the same year as Evangeline" and then I actually thought that through. XD start a Women Who Have Loved Elias Grimstone club That said, she was also in the same year as Philomen Huxley who could be a friend?

Potential hurl? Protego Lochrin comes from a big, though unplayed, family that he has a "we love each other, but also annoy each other" kind of relationship with.

I'm down for both but let's start with Ezra/Irene?

Sure I'm down for Irene/Winnie as friends, they probs would have been friendly in school even if they weren't in the same house. Lonely Hearts Club Band few xDD

Also down for Bram/Dean as friends/acquaintances! Let's start out with one thread then see where it goes from there?

lmfaoooo k but that'd be hilarious Irene/Evangeline xD

I'm down for Phil as a friend! And for Protego as a hurl! Like the above, let's start with one thread and see where it goes? :D
