  • Fashion: As she insists she's a proper little lady, Clarissa always wears the appropriate outfit for the setting, as if her mother would allow her to do anything else anyway, and she has a special like for things colored in pale blues or emerald greens. If Clarissa could wear a ball gown every day of the week, she would, as she loves the elegance and fabrics. Her mother never has to worry about her getting her nice dresses messy as Clarissa takes good care of her clothes, even as young as she is, though that's not to say that her twin brother, Phoenix hasn't tried pushing her into the dirt a few times just because he thinks she's such a priss about it. When they were particularly young, she and her twin wore clothes that were similar, as their parents thought the twin thing was adorable.

Sample Roleplay Post:

The harmonious sounds of violin music poured throughout the hall and climbed up the stairs until it reached the very end of the hall. The ball was in full swing and it had attracted the attentions of one Miss Clarissa Hemlock, who was supposed to be asleep up in the nursery by now, along with her siblings. But, alas, she couldn't help but tip toe down the stairs in just her dressing gown, breath held until she found the source of the music. From the doorway she saw all the beautiful ladies and gentlemen, dancing, talking, drinking. A sigh fell from her lips as she wondered when she would be old enough to finally get to attend these adult parties rather than sent off to the other end of the estate with her governess. It wasn't fair! She was certain she'd look ten times better than any of those ladies in her gown, hopefully made with lots of pretty lace in a nice, fine pale blue to bring out the small flecks of blue in her primarily spring green eyes.

Clarissa had gotten so lost in her fantasy that she had hardly noticed that she wasn't the only one who had awoken due to the music, and her twin brother was peeking over the top of her head at the people. "Do you suppose they are able to use the toilet with all that dress?" he asked, nearly giving the ginger a heart attack. Her eyes widened and she put her hand on her chest before glaring at him and shushing him, "Don't be disgusting. Go back to bed, you're going to get us in trouble." She could hardly believe that Phoenix would ever say such a thing in front of a lady like herself! He was going to start acting like a gentleman if he planned on joining her at Hogwarts the coming term, she thought. She couldn't have him embarrass her in front of people that she was going to be trying her absolute hardest to impress.

Unfortunately, it didn't matter how quiet the two of them were being or not because they were out of bed and just by footsteps alone, Clarissa could feel that their governess was near, ready to escort them back up to bed. Perhaps she had noticed the two of them were no longer in bed and had an inkling where they were. Clarissa moved into the corner, between the stairs and the doorway and held her breath, her brother doing the same. Perhaps if they kept still, they'd escape the trouble they were in if they were caught out of bed.
