PLAYER: Cella (she/her)
OPEN TO PLURK/DISCORD FRIENDING FOR RP? Yes! I will be equally inactive on both, occasionally dropping in for a sudden rush of activity - but i can be summoned with an @, so. shortitude & shortitude#9741
WHERE DO ZOMBIES FIND YOU DURING THE APOCALYPSE? in a Sainsbury's queue probably, trying to buy pasta

CHARACTER(S) & CANON(S): hermione granger (harry potter bewks)
WHO THEY ARE, THE ONE-LINE ELEVATOR PITCH: tiny witch, big brain, hair as big as to match
WHAT ARE THEY UP TO NOWADAYS? PLOTS THEY NEED HELP WITH? has accepted that her mission in taravast is to be a supporting hands; occasionally will be going off on her own to train or try to figure out the magic of the place. secretly wants to be helping in more spying missions. was assigned the role of modiste of the court and may still have some push-up corsets and codpieces if anyone needs to give her money...
oh yes and she's slowly having a mental breakdown over being 18 year old and stuck in another war and missing her friends and having to deal with her best friend's mom being alive AND being her friend and also people who are both competent and pretty what's up with that

ICE BREAKER ROUNDS:
i. Black Friday sales hit and the last item on your character's shopping list is getting swarmed by the masses. How do they secure the goods? accio-ing that shit.

ii. Your character has been stranded on a long journey with a wailing baby whose lung capacity predicts a great future in the musical arts. Everyone is staring. How do they assert dominance? she doesn't, it's a baby. she is going to pull up a book and bury her nose in it, and do the very british thing of seething quietly and waiting to get home to tell her friend all about it.

iii. What hipster coffee order would your character put in, if they even knew what coffe is? either 7 esspressos a day or someone better teach this girl to stretch it out with milk via a latte


THREE TYPES OF CR YOUR WANT FOR YOUR CHARACTER (BE SPECIFIC): i'll break it down into some categories i guess:
1. let hermione be a young adult: because hp sure won't. i would love for her to develop crushes and start admiring some people from a "purely professional point of view of course" and having a whole Moment around what it means to be the smartest witch of her age but also maybe want to also be a girl?
2. let hermione be competent. she had a great run over the huntress invasion and all, she thrives under pressure and in danger and it let out her wrathful angry side. i would love for her to develop a cause here (s.p.e.w., anyone?) that she can use to annoy literally anyone who listens to her about.
3. let hermione be fragile. she's under the impression that she's invincible just because harry beat voldemort. she isn't i'm always down for inflicting pain within reason, though i don't necessarily want to have her die. actions have consequences, and not everyone can be friend. (also you're just 18 girl, chill.)
4. let hermione be making potions. that's it that's the category i want her to work at potions with the ingredients in taravast until she figures out healing potions, brain elixirs, pepper-up potions, etc. (maybe some veritaserum ooooohhhh.)

WHAT CAN YOUR CHARACTER UNIQUELY AND PG-13-INGLY OFFER? she's great at improvising, confident at knowing The Spells For That, and sounding passive aggressive when she's feeling insecure.

[thebrideoffire]

I definitely can offer the "be a girl" thing because that's what Dany's been wanting.

[reparo]

IT'S WHAT THEY DESERVE!!!

[valeas]

please let her make you espressos while you both stay up late into the night vigorously reading, hermione

[reparo]

you know just what to say to make a girl have a big crush
ngl im not even sure hermione's ever had coffee. i mean i usually headcanon that she takes coffee over tea but harry's always too busy gargling pumpkin juice to think about checking other people's breakfast choices (thanks jkr's writing) so who's to say i'm wrong
WHO'S TO SAY

[valeas]

it is one of her quieter superpowers
and tbh i can 100% see hermione taking coffee over tea
NO ONE CAN STOP YOU ANYMORE

[reparo]

an italian witch made her coffee properly she's never going back

[notsansa]

Let her see that fancy magic one more time, please and thanks.

[reparo]

What magic do you want, Sansa, I got it all, fancy magic pretty magic useless magic strange magic, you can have it.

[notsansa]

She is greedy and wants it all. But mostly just wants to be able to protect herself because she feels like the most useless team member! Not enough faith in her brain power yet.

I'm especially for Sansa trying to learn magic and just constantly being unable to do it, bc yes.

[reparo]

she could also teach sansa how to punch annoying, slightly fascist little blonde pricks in the face, though - beyond just magic

[notsansa]

She doesn't want to get her hands dirty, though... That sounds painful and icky. She prefers doing it from a distance.

For real though I'd be amused at someone trying to teach her how to punch. She'd hate it. More Arya's cup of tea.

[sergeant_slick]

Oh hey, mental breakdown over being stuck in a war? Missing your friends? That's relatable! Really, really relatable. Slick has some formal training on dealing with combat stress, but also he was going through that whole deal in canon as well. They can compare notes. They can compare notes on Lily being an awesome friend, and if the whole timeline thing comes up, Slick might finally be forced to acknowledge it's real!

Also, the potions thing! Slick can help secure supplies, he was getting into the black market before Taravast went sideways, so he could figure out how to get his hands on materials if he's got the funds for it. Just as long as Hermione teaches him about this stuff, because excuse him were magic potions an option this whole time why did nobody tell him
