Operation Marry Eugene
#1
Win a Date With Eugene Scamander
Guys my Eugene muse was in high gear seeing "his boys" in this movie. Also it's been brought to my attention (thanks for the panic Bree! :P) that Theseus Scamander is supposedly 8 years older than Newt... which makes him born in 1889. I'm already technically late, so unless we doorstep baby him, he'll be off a little. If I were more on the ball this would legit be a WW contest.

GUESS WHO NEEDS TO GET ON THIS FOR ANY KIND OF CANON CORRELATION? That's right this girl.

It's also been brought to my attention that the Scamander boys are nowhere positively labeled as pureblood, so this opens up a lot of doors!

Eugene is:
  • 26
  • pureblood
  • Beast Division employee
  • the heir to his upper MC family (so can techinically support a wife)
  • goofy af, probably not ready for marriage, but charismatic and not a total asshole. He has an auburn niffler named Ginger, a horde of opinionated sisters and an affinity for being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

What he needs in a possible wife:
  • 18-25 (and/or out of Hogwarts)
  • AB
  • probably mc, but not super suck on it
  • It's a short list of things really XD In HP canon she breeds hippogriffs, but this can be something she picks up after marriage, though it would make it easier if she already enjoyed animals XD

HOW IT HAPPENS: I would prefer not to force anything and do things more organically. Additionally I would like to do more than straight up meet-and-greets, so toss me your best candidates and some fun scenarios! I will probably start with one per player rn so I don't overload myself, but if it flops and we try again with somebody else, that's cool!

HIT ME.

I offer Margaret Rawlinson who does love animals, and is very eager to have children of her own (though she won’t be in his face about it, she promises).

I also have Henrietta Davis, more as someone to through out there. She might have a chance of picking up an interest in magical creatures after marriage.

I’m really starting to realize that I need more hurlable Middle Class

I have two middle class spinsters. One is his sister, the other is Connie, so I have alternative offerings xD

I think we talked about threading him and Minnie before? I know she’s uc and increasingly elderly but I think they’ll be cute!

I have Benevolence Montague - MC, Pureblood, into herbology and plant breeding.  She's as sweet as a button- Former Ravenclaw and beginning to dabble in animal breeding as part of her Nano plot -Owns her family business, which operates a location in Hogsmeade and London. She's bookish and a bit quirky, bit of a hippy who thinks everything alive deserves respect and care.
She makes plant deliveries to the ministry, so paths may have crossed before, and since she is looking into breeding, she might seek out some guidance from the ministry on what she can/can't do.

I took the L'estrange interest in the family as meaning the sons were pureblood, but if they aren't then I guess Madeleine Backus who has an MC inheritance and isn't afraid of hard work - and she is only just graduated from Hogwarts - and is still finding her 'career' so could very well end up as a breeder. She's also quite tall and would give rise to those gangly Scamander genetics and was a Hufflepuff. Meet and Greet between them, could possibly happen at an event where Maddie is awkward turtling- or his niffler gets hold of her mothers necklace which is a bit sentimental at the moment.

Please kick me in the head if I try to make a character for this.

My only existing options are Elinor Goyle, Maeve Connolly, and @"Odira Potter" who are varying degrees of inappropriate to the task xD

Frankly Holliday would be suited if she were three years older. She could always leave after OWLs... >.>

There is always @"Lucille Flint" for you. Although I'm still not sure about their chemistry tbh.

Hawke - let's do something follow up with the niffler! Ginger is ready and raring to go!

Kelly - let's try Margaret! IDK how they'll get on, but we'll see!

Lauren - "increasingly elderly" xD I think we have talked about them, let's try it! Do you honestly see a future breeding hippogriffs??

Dante - I think Benevolence is probably the better get to start! She seems more his speed.

Kayte - I don't want anybody new, yet, will revisit if I get desperate SO you should be safe for now Wink

Fallin - I'm sucking at replying to our current threads, but I have a side deal I might make with you /evil


Tldr; let me know if you can start or if you need me to!

I can offer hurling of Tilda for you! I think we'd talked about hurling them anyways, but as usually I dropped the  ball. Here is me re-offering a ball. :D

She's out of the age range but I think Adelia Lovegood might actually be a good fit otherwise? She's not currently into Hippogriffs right now but it's something she could quite reasonably fall into. She's also in a place rn where she could easily find herself rushing into marriage should someone ask her. Not saying she's about to marry ANYONE but she's lowered the bar a bit since Balt in terms of how deep her feelings are.

You snuck in haha! I'm not opposed, but I think the age thing might be tricky? I don't know how to navigate that one?

So I've always been like really rigidly WOMAN ALWAYS MARRY AN OLDER MAN OR ELSE IT IS SOCIALLY WEIRD but actually there have been many instances in books and rl historical stuff I've read/watched/etc. over the years where a woman has been a little bit older and apparently it's not a big deal? And I'm always like BUT?>?!?!??! Like obviously not a 19 year old marrying a 17 year old boy but an established man marrying a slightly older woman. I think typically it was done when the woman was a widow (wc class with kids in particular for financial support) or a spinster and didn't have a whole lot of options. There was apparently a huge gender ratio disparity in the 1800s where women outnumbered men considerably (I guess our census wasn't really so out of whack for all those years) which I didn't know until I read The Odd Women a few weeks ago. I keep stumbling across things like that that give the impression it really wasn't as big of a deal as I thought it was so I'm trying to adjust my perception.
