Lore of Lindy

[Rose Zeller]

Hi HM!!! Please join me in plotting...

Rose Zeller
Rose is an adult in her 20s, an auditor at the Ministry, and more or less an elemental force of chaos and pure ego. Some plot ideas for her:

1. Targets - does your character run a business? Should that business run into government difficulties? Rose can and will make this happen.
2. Coworkers - I think Rose tries to have good working relationships with other Ministry employees and halfway succeeds but with some hiccups. 
3. Co-conspirators - Rose loves shenanigans and has no reservations about causing harm. If your character feels like they've been wronged, Rose might really empathize with that and want to help them take revenge.
4. Friends? She has a difficult personality, but maybe some people are into that. She might try to convince them to go to her sketchy self-help group (unless that's where they met!). She might/will meddle in their lives. 

Jackie McWilkinleyson
Another 20-something. Married with kids, columnist at Witch Weekly. Extremely gullible. She needs friends, maybe babysitters, maybe fans of her column.

Feel free to godmod her husband Willy, classic HM NPC not whatsoever owned by me! Notes: he is extremely accident-prone, has broken his coccyx many times, and while he was a scrawny kid, he may or may not look like Jason Momoa now. 

Florence Sang
Fifth-year Hufflepuff, literary geek, pining constantly. I'm especially interested in making friends for her - especially old friends she can be ridiculous and comfortable with - maybe some extremely awkward flirting, possibly very slow-burn romance, possibly nemesis-ships with other students where they mutually find each other annoying.

A Rose/Peter thread may be interesting. They both work at the Ministry and Peter's a bit of an odd-ball.

Also Iris runs a shop out of her home where she sees both muggles and magic folk, maybe she gets audited to ensure she's not using magic in front of muggles?

[Rose Zeller]

I LOVE the idea of Rose disguising herself as a Muggle and then trying to trap Iris (and I think this would be a wonderful way to get back into her head). It could go one of many ways... I think Rose would be pretty susceptible to anyone attempting to listen to her/validate her feelings, so she might decide that Iris is a great confidant and advisor who she should patronize any time she feels bad. On the other hand, she's probably going to start out any encounter in a somewhat antagonistic way, and if Iris pushes back, that could lead to trouble.

I also see lots of potential for a Peter/Rose plot but I think it would require more thinking - I like the idea of them somehow being paired together on a Ministry assignment and then it turning into an Adventure, but the whats and whys are elusive to me currently.

Iris can kind of sense intentions, so she may see through the muggle disguise but would probably not mention it and just go with the flow. I can see some potential for a friendship between Iris and Rose leading to some character development too

And omg peter would love an adventure. I'll do some thinking too about it. It would probably be something like 'follow her around and do what she needs' cause he's the assistant to the assistant and just basically the coffee guy.

[Rose Zeller]

Oh yeah, I absolutely do not expect the muggle disguise to be convincing. I would be really interested to see what a friendship would eventually look like.

It could be something like, Rose is investigating an NPC importer of [something trivial like robes] which are either not up to standards or there's an irregularity on the forms, decides to go ask some questions, finds out that something more nefarious is going on behind the scenes wrt black market trade etc.

I can start an Iris thread and we can see where it goes?

And I love that idea! Peter just tagging along hating his job and then bam they uncover some secret black market trade ring of like idk something amusing. I have nothing for that rn lol

[Rose Zeller]

Excellent!!

And we'll let Peter/Rose plot ideas come together in their own time!

[Jacob Williams]

Perfect! I'll tag you when it's done

Charlotte & Florence Sang

Charlotte is also in her fifth year, and it could be possible that over the years they have shared some classes. Her personality is likely one that compliments the usual characteristics of a Hufflepuff, so we could perhaps have them as acquaintances that catch up whenever they're within earshot in the Great Hall or even have something a little more concrete. Charlotte is known for being in an absurd number of clubs and extracurriculars, which could be another angle of their friendship if we want them to be a little closer platonically!

[Florence Sang]

Yes 100%!! Flo is a Ravenclawish Hufflepuff, so Charlotte being a Hufflepuffish Ravenclaw is perfect and they'd definitely be friendly. I love the extracurricular club angle... Florence is an intern at a literary magazine in Hogsmeade. I also have this idea that she's trying to start a drama/theater club, and I think it would be funny if it's, like, her and Charlotte corralling a bunch of first/second year NPCs (because they haven't yet gotten other older students to join) while trying to be serious - if Charlotte would be into either of those groups.

[Shoshana Levy]

Lindy!! I'm putting it here in writing that we have plans for another Pannie thread set sometime around Annie's birthday before Saffron and Iola came back! BUT ALSO!

Florence and Shoshana maybe? Shoshie is a fourth year but on the older side with an October birthday, so I'd imagine she socializes with a lot of fifth years too. They can argue about books and poetry and stuff together! Doubt Shoshana is much of a poet herself, at least at this point, but maybe Flo could get her into it!

[Rose Zeller]

yes! I can totally see them being book friends/like sophisticated tea party friends.

[Shoshana Levy]

SOPHISTICATED TEA PARTY FRIENDS!! I love it! Someone has to start that muggle book club, right? Shoshie grew up very traditionally wrt magical vs muggle worlds and doesn't know anything about muggle studies or muggle media; might Flo know a little more than her to introduce her to the subjects?

[Rose Zeller]

I honestly do not know how much Flo would know about Muggle things! She knows about veela things and wizard things but it is possible her dad is Muggleborn or something and also generally possible she has picked up some Muggle things through osmosis and being friends with Fox??

[Shoshana Levy]

Maybe! but we could just as easily make shit up about wizard books and poetry, which might be more fun if a little more challenging.
