full name: fiona kathleen kingston
age: sixteen
year: sixth
birthday: april 26th
blood line: muggle-born
house: ravenclaw
"reading, art, painting, sketching, my family, the quiet, school (and even homework, though i hate to admit that), the autumn, flowers, body lotion, different languages, tea, travelling, collecting postcards, a warm bed, following the rules, surprisingly quiddich (and i'm actually pretty good at it), christmas holidays"
dislikes ,
"the separation from my eldest brother, loud or obnoxious people, parties, not being prepared, extreme temperatures, rule breakers, sad endings, getting too over emotional, being in awkward situations, conflict and yelling, scary movies, defense against the dark arts"
strengths and weaknesses,
"i guess my biggest strengths would lay academically or artistically. i like reading and studying, and try and absorb everything that i can. then, when my mind gets too tired to think, i paint, or sketch. its calming. landscapes are my favourite. i'm also surprisingly good at quiddich, considering i'm a muggle. i'm a good listener too, though not too good of a talker. that's where my weaknesses come in. i'm pretty shy, especially when i don't know someone. and i'm quiet, and have a hard time sticking up for myself if someone is attacking me or bullying me. i also am horrible when trying to flirt with boys. they've been interested in me, but i just don't know how to react and get really clumsy."
fears and dreams,
"my biggest fear and my biggest dream correlate to the same thing -- my eldest brother edric. my biggest fear is losing him forever. he pulled away when he was finished school, and though there was the age difference, we were still close. my dream would be for him to come back into my life and the life of my family. i would forgive him in a heartbeat for those missing years and i know my family would too. my other fears include never being able to get up the courage to tell a boy i like him, or failing anything for that matter. my other dreams include becoming an artist and selling my work, or owning a bookstore. i'm pretty simple like that."
personality,
the bookworm ---
"well i was sorted into ravenclaw for a reason. i love books. i love the smell of them, old and new, i love the way the pages feel against my fingers, and i love reading and learning about anything and everything. whether it be first thing in the morning, snuggled up in bed with a cup of tea, or late afternoon in a cozy chair, in a hidden spot in the library, reading is my favourite thing to do. i like reading about school subjects, history, and fictional books as well. anything and everything i can get my hands on, i will eagerly read. my family probably thinks i have some sort of a problem, but they've come to accept my wall full of bookshelves now at home. there's just so much out there i don't know, and i love learning about it. and i love reading adventures of characters who are a lot braver and more exciting than me."
the artist ---
"so the one thing that is almost as likely to see me doing apart from reading, is painting, or sketching. i don't know when it started, or why, but painting is my way to relax and not think about anything or anyone. its the most calming feeling i've ever experienced and i always feel better after i've painted. landscapes are my favourite to paint, especially once autumn hits and the leaves start to change colours. the beauty is so magical, and to capture even a fraction of it on a page is amazing to me. art is something that i love and would like to make a career out of one day. i use art to calm my emotions and even release them."
the shy ---
"something most people know about me is that i'm particularly shy and quiet. i take a while to get warmed up to people and sometimes can come off cold or mean by accident because i'm not outgoing and incredibly friendly. but i promise i'm super sweet once you get to know me, or well, even before, if i let that side of me show. i just have problems asserting myself and being aggressive. i'm a great friend and listener, and always have been more of a listener than a talker. i'll take your secrets to the grave and will be there for a friend no matter what. but standing up for myself is something i can't normally do. so when people are calling me names, or telling me i'm a freak for being so quiet, or a mudblood because i came from the muggle world, i don't usually defend myself. its not that the names really hurt me, because i don't care too much about what others think of me, but it is hard sometimes."
the almost lover ---
"i've never technically had a boyfriend, or really anything close to it. its not that i don't like boys, because i do! it's just that, i get really nervous and clumsy around boys that i like, and never seem to be able to say the right thing. or, i've been told that i don't give off the reassurance that i feel the same way about someone, allowing them to take their affections elsewhere. i want to date, but it seems scary and nerve-wrecking to me. my mom says you need to be yourself around a boy that's right for you, and that scares me that i'll ever find someone. because my family and close friends understand me, and my solitary nature with my books and my art, but can someone else deal with that, and love me for it?"
the family girl ---
"my family is the most important thing to me. i'm the baby of the family, and loved having two older brothers to shelter me and protect me. even though edric wasn't my full blood, i didn't care and loved him no different than my other brother. that's why it hurt so much when he pulled away from us. family was always such a big deal to all of us. christmas holidays were, and still are, my favourite time of the year. decorating and spending time with my mom and dad. they are my biggest supports and i love my family to death."
the quiddich player ---
"in my first year when i discovered flying and quiddich, i was surprised at the fact that i actually liked it. i was even more surprised that my awkward self somehow seemed really good at it. now i play on the quiddich team for ravenclaw, something most people don't expect, as a chaser. i'm not super competitive, but enough to want to do my best and win for everyone on the team. plus, apparently quiddich is the one place where my coordination actually works."
history ,
"my family history is pretty simple, or at least, i think so. before i even existed, my mother joyce married a man and had my brother edric. sadly, her first husband passed away and my father, lucas found and fell in love with her. the two of them got married, and they decided to have more children. that's when my brother and i came along.
we were truly a happy, muggle family, the five of us. my father accepted edric into the family as if he were his own child and loved and spoiled us all equally. my mother was wonderful, and i grew up with so much love from my parents and siblings. of course, edric was a lot older than i was. ten years to be exact, so i don't remember a family that wasn't aware magic existed. edric went to hogwarts, and i grew up with the understanding that though edric was a wizard, my brother and i may not be, and i accept that. i loved edric and always looked forward to when he would come home for the holidays and spend time with me and my brother. there was something about having such an older brother that was special to me.
but when i was eight things changed. i obviously couldn't understand it at the time, and now i don't even understand why edric decided to pull away from us, but our family changed. edric wasn't there anymore for christmas. he didn't come around, or write, and i spent many nights as a young child thinking i did something wrong, crying in my bed. he was my big brother and i had no idea what could possibly make him not want to see me or my family. the first few years after he pulled away were hard. i'm sure my parents tried to communicate with him, but it was harder because he lived in the wizarding world and we didn't.
sooner or later, we seemed to set into our own niche, the four of us. then, when i was ten years old, an owl came for my brother. he too was a wizard. i didn't want to get my hopes up, because this was something i had read about in books and had been shown little pieces of through edric's stories. but then the very next year, my own letter came, accepting me into hogwarts. my parents were so happy for us all. of course, i missed the experience they must have had when edric got his letter, but by the time my brother and i headed off to hogwarts, being a wizard and having magic was something they had gotten used to.
going away to hogwarts that first year and even the couple years after that were hard for me. i hated being away from my family and was so awkwardly shy, it made making friends hard. from what i remembered of edric telling me, and the way that my other brother made it seem, i was certain i was going to end up in ravenclaw house. and just as i had predicted, i was sorted into ravenclaw and have been happy there ever since.
being shy and a muggle at hogwarts was difficult at times, because there were so many people wanting to pick on me, or call me names such as mudblood. i tried to ignore them the best that i could, but would sometimes run to my brother crying and wishing for it to stop. there were times i wanted nothing more than to be home with my family in scotland. but at least i had my brother there, and we were super close. he understood me, and we supported one another no matter what.
along with hogwarts came the emergence of my artist talents, as well as my looks through puberty. when boys started to notice at first that they thought i was pretty, there were a lot of them leaving me flowers, or notes, and to be honest, it was embarrassing. but i was so quiet and shy, that it was quickly learned i wasn't like other girls who accepted and rewarded their behaviour. honestly, i still don't know how to act around boys, but at fourteen, it was even worse. now, i still get looks of longing, but i guess i'm not worth the bother of trying.
i'm sixteen now, and in my sixth year here at hogwarts, and i haven't seen my brother since i was eight years old and still miss him, or the idea of him a lot. thankfully i have a wonderful family still, and an amazing older brother, but it still doesn't feel complete without edric. i'm hoping that by the time i've finished hogwarts i'll be able to work up the courage to find him. but that's only if he wants to be found."
