EVENT 011 — AY MI AMOR(TENTIA)

It’s Saturday! Which usually means one thing, Ludovic Bagman, Marlene McKinnon, and Emma Vanity are hosting a party in the Room of Requirement — no special occasion required, though if anyone asks, Emma’s cat recently turned three and is the current guest of honor. For once, it seems like the students get to celebrate a little, instead of the constant suffering that has been going on lately. Unbeknownst to anyone though, Bennet Zonko, inspired by the revelry of last year’s Halloween party (before people died — that is), sneaked a little Amortentia out of the Potions classroom, and into… well, everything drinkable.

You guys have seen how this works last time around, but if you need a refresher, check out this post right here! Find the pairings underneath the cut.

The IN-GAME DATE for this event is MARCH 18TH.

EVENT 010: GRYFFINDOR VS. HUFFLEPUFF

With spring on the rise, Dougal Wood had hoped that the sun would be out for the next Quidditch match. The sky had been grey for so long, and with everything happening, he thought that everyone could do with a little warmth. Unfortunately, Mother Nature was not on his side. The sun was not out, and to make matters even more dreary, there was rainy mist falling from the sky. Dougal tightened his grip around his umbrella, leading the charge of students as they marched their way out towards the Quidditch Pitch. The march to the announcers block was more difficult than normal. The rain made the steps slick and dangerous to the step, but he made it there safe enough.

Professor McGonagall was already there when he arrived, and he tried to sit through her usual lecture without fidgeting in his seat. With that out of the way, it was almost time for the games to begin. He tightened his cloak around his body and then leaned forward to speak.

“Good morning, students of Hogwarts! Another rainy day, it seems. I wish I had more time to chat with you all, but Professor McGonagall didn’t appreciate my complaining during the last match. So, we’re just going to get right to it! Today’s match is Gryffindor against Hufflepuff. I know it might not seem very exciting after the last crazy game with Ravenclaw and Slytherin, but stay hopeful folks! Something tells me that this game is going to be one for the ages. Just take one look at Marlene McKinnon! If that doesn’t look like the face of competition, then just consider me blind! ------ Alright, looks like that’s Madam Hooch, coming out from the storage cupboards over there. Bludgers are off, snitch is gone too. It’s a great day to play some Quidditch, isn’t it? -- Players are mounting their brooms, it’ll be any second now. And, begin!”

"MARLENE MCKINNON is starting us off today! She’s grabbed the quaffle straight from the air, and is taking off down the field. AMOS DIGGORY is hot on her tail, but MCKINNON looks ready for that. She’s zigzagging him all over the field, not giving him a single second to reach for the quaffle. Better luck next time, AMOS. MCKINNON is still going-- she’s put some space between her and DIGGORY now. Poor lad hasn’t got a shot in hell of catching her. ALICE FORTESCUE is waiting for her, though. MCKINNON is pulling her arm back to take a shot, but-- Ah, it’s failed. Good save by FORTESCUE! See, I told you lot, this is going to be a great game. ADDIE IVERS has the quaffle now, you can see her on the west side of the Pitch, trying to dodge FABIAN and GIDEON PREWETT. They’ve got her cornered and-- WOW! What a great Body Blow by the PREWETT TWINS. MCKINNON has the quaffle again. Better luck next time, badgers!”

“Well, we’re twenty minutes into the game, my fellow students. Gryffindor is on point tonight, and in the lead 30-0. The Hufflepuff Chasers are working hard, but Gryffindor seems to be working harder. MCKINNON has the quaffle again----Merlin, she seems to be carrying the team today, doesn’t she? Oh-- wait, I spoke too soon! She’s tossed the quaffle to JAMES POTTER. He fumbles it for a moment, but don’t worry Gryffindor fans, he’s got it safe and sound and he’s heading back across the Pitch. CHARITY BURBAGE sends a bludger his way, but POTTER performs an excellent Sloth Grip Roll and manages to fly away, scot-free. He’s not out of the woods yet, though! GRETA CATCHLOVE is ready and in position. She sends the very same bludger back in his direction. He isn’t so lucky this time. It’s hit him right in the hand, and oh-- bollocks! He’s dropped the quaffle. But wait-- is that-- oh, bloody hell, it is! FABIAN PREWETT has pulled a move I’ve never seen before! He’s used his bat to hit the quaffle back into the hands of POTTER! This is some professional level playing, I tell you!”

“It’s never easy playing a game in the rain, but Gryffindor treats it like any regular day! They’re ahead still, 50-0 in case you haven’t been paying attention to the score board. POTTER and MCKINNON are doing great today, practically reading each other’s minds! Speaking of, is that POTTER with the quaffle again? He’s racing across the field-- Merlin, he’s got a nice broom doesn’t he? I can hardly see him! Anyways, he’s getting closer. He’s dodged a bludger from BURBAGE and a block from DIGGORY. Can any of the Hufflepuffs stop him? Doesn’t look it it, because-- YES! YES! POTTER has scored! -- Sorry, Professor, no favoritism, I’ve got it. -- Anyhow, after that excellent display of offense, Gryffindor is up, 60-0! Looks like they’re celebrating. MCKINNON and POTTER are congratulating each other, it looks like. A moment too soon, it seems, because while they were distracted EDWARD TONKS has grabbed the quaffle! He’s being quick, he is! The Gryffindors have hardly even noticed he’s gone. And-- well, TONKS has scored. Good job, Hufflepuff. It’s going to be hard to close that lead, but it’s a start.”

“It’s been an hour-and-a-half, and this game is more boring than I thought it would be. Gryffindor is ahead still, 110-10. Now, I know a lot can change during a Quidditch game, but that’s a pretty big lead. Let’s see, where is everyone at... Seekers DAVEY and GALVIN GUDGEON are both on opposite ends of the Pitch, pretty high above the rest of the action. I haven’t seen either one of them move too much during this match, so they must not have seen the snitch yet. Interesting, considering how long the game has been going on. --- The quaffle is on the south end of the field, tucked under the arm of GLENDA CHITTOCK. I imagine it’s a boon to the Gryffindor morale to see her on the field after everything that’s happened. She’s moving faster than light down the field, heading straight as a beam right towards Hufflepuff Seeker, ALICE FORTESCUE. FORTESCUE’S performance has left something to be desired this match, which is how Gryffindor’s ended up with such a tight lead. At this point, I’m worried Hufflepuff won’t stand a chance, even if they do end up finding the snitch. CHITTOCK’S moved in close now. Her arm is up, readying a throw, and--- in it goes, bringing up the Gryffindor lead to 120-10. Waiting in the wings to catch the quaffle is DIGGORY. He’s heading back across the field. Is DRAGANOV even paying attention? He looks like he’s going to block the wrong hoop. What in Merlin’s name is he playing at? DIGGORY seems confused, but he takes advantage of the open shot and scores, bringing Hufflepuff up to 20 points against Gryffindor’s 120. An unusual amount of cheering coming from the Slytherins right now.”

“We’ve made it to two hours, and I’m so sorry for ever calling this game boring. DRAGANOV’S morale must have plummeted after giving up that easy shot to DIGGORY, because he’s missing everything now. The score is 120-50. Gryffindor is still in the lead, but if they keep it up at this rate, it might not be for very much longer. Hufflepuff seems to be invigorated by the boost to their points, and they’re all bringing their O-game now. TONKS and IVERS are riding side by side up the pitch. Both of the PREWETT twins are hot on their tail, but they’re ready for that. With some expert Chaser-to-Chaser passing, they manage to avoid losing the quaffle. FABIAN PREWETT hits the bludger in their direction. IVERS manages to toss it over to TONKS but not in time to avoid the bludger. It’s hit her right in the foot, and ouch, that looks painful. In the confusion of all of that, TONKS manages to score once again, bringing the score up to 120-60. I guess I spoke too soon about a Gryffindor win. This is still anybody’s game.”

“This is turning into a long Quidditch match. Already nearly three hours in and neither team is looking close to being finished. I don’t think I’ll be able to keep announcing for much longer without breaking for the loo! ANDREI DRAGANOV is still turning out to be a big disappointment--- sorry, Professor. What I meant to say is that DRAGANOV is missing every single shot that comes his way. Even more confusing--- the Slytherins keep cheering on the Hufflepuffs. What a strange day this is. Anyways, Gryffindor’s only managed to score a single shot in the last hour, thanks to some good goal-keeping from FORTESCUE. If only she’d managed at the beginning of the game, right? Hufflepuff, on the other hand, has nearly tied the game. The score now is 130-100. Gryffindor seems exasperated with their keeper. Did anyone see that gesture that MCKINNON made? I think all of us Gryffindors can relate to that. For their part, though, they’re doing their very best to keep the quaffle out of the hands of the Hufflepuff chasers. POTTER’S got the ball, and he’s--- wait a second, is that the snitch? Seekers GUDGEON and GUDGEON are racing towards each other from opposite sides of the pitch. They’re getting close now, hands outstretched. Hufflepuff looks set to win, and WOAH, DAVEY GUDGEON has thrown an elbow into his brother’s face. The snitch seems to have disappeared and GALVIN GUDGEON is bleeding over the front of his robes. Madame Hooch is flying onto the pitch now. And-- yep, that’s a foul for Gryffindor! IVERS is taking the shot for her team, and with a quick bit of work, she brings Hufflepuff’s score up to 110. POTTER is congratulating GUDGEON now, it looks like. Smart move on his part, causing a foul. If he hadn’t, the game would be over now.”

“Three and a half hours into the game, and Hufflepuff has taken the lead 130-140. I’m sorry to have to leave while things are getting interesting, but I really can’t hold it anymore. The loo is calling my name! Due to popular demand, Pinky Parkinson will be covering the game while I’m gone. Pinky, here’s the mic.”

“Thanks, Dougal! Enjoy your bathroom break. --- Hello, fellow students, it’s me again. I’m so happy to be back up here announcing again. It’s so fun. --- Now, let me look around and see where everyone is. JAMES and MARLENE are by the Gryffindor hoops, both shouting at ANDREI. He’s really doing awful in this second half of the game, isn’t he? Poor GIDEON. He looks so sad over there. FABIAN, cheer him up if you can! DAVEY is higher up, looking for the snitch, I guess. And where’s GLENDA? Oh, there she is. Hey, GLENDA! She’s tailing behind TED, for those of you who can’t see her. And as for TED, he’s got the quaffle in his hands, heading towards JAMES, MARLENE, and ANDREI. ADDIE’S nearby too. I hope her foot isn’t hurting her too bad. It’s very brave of her to keep playing, I think. TED just tossed her the quaffle, probably because GIDEON was coming his way. Oh, wow, she’s going so fast! Go ADDIE! JAMES is screaming something at ANDREI again because he hardly even moves to block ADDIE’S shot. The quaffle is so close! YAY, ADDIE scored, bringing it up to--- where’s the scoreboard again? Oh, yea. Bringing the score up to 120-150 for Hufflepuff! Aw, the Gryffindors really don’t look happy. GIDEON just sent a bludger flying at ANDREI. It misses, but probably because GIDEON didn’t really want to hit him. JAMES has the quaffle now. I think he’s been waiting underneath so he could grab it first. He’s flying away now, and --- oh, ouch. He’s hit in the shoulder by a bludger, and he drops the quaffle. CHARITY hit the bludger at him. I’m not sure if it needed to be that hard, because JAMES can’t stop grabbing his shoulder. AMOS grabs the quaffle after JAMES drops it and throws it over ANDREI’S shoulder for another goal. 130-160 for Hufflepuff! --- Oh, and there’s Dougal now, running up the stairs. Be careful or you’ll fall!”

“Thank you, Pinky. If it weren’t for you, I don’t know what I would do during these long matches. Now, where were we--- I think Gryffindor is preparing for a Power Play. Aww, yeah, I love these! The PREWETT TWINS are using their bludgers to scatter the chasers from the middle of the field. Even DAVEY GUDGEON flies down from his perch to help clear a path. CHITTOCK has the quaffle, making her the witch of the moment. POTTER and MCKINNON join the others. Taking advantage of the moment, CHITTOCK races down the pitch, trusting her teammates to keep the Hufflepuff’s out of her path. Everything seems to be going well--- she’s getting close to FORTESCUE. There’s still time for the Gryffindor’s to come back, as long as they starting hitting goals again. CHITTOCK shoots, and--- and nearly scores. FORTESCUE is like lightning, stopping the quaffle from entering the hoop by mere centimeters. FORTESCUE tosses it over to TONKS, who is in the perfect spot to score, thanks to the cluttering of Gryffindor’s among the middle of the pitch. The Power Play is a risky move, and it didn’t turn out well for the Lions. TONKS shoots, and of course, DRAGANOV only clumsily tries to stop. The score now is 130-170. Ugh.”

“Five hours now, folks. Remember earlier, when I said this match was boring because the Gryffindors were creating too far of a lead? Well, I feel that way again, only about the Hufflepuffs this time. Their lead over the Gryffindors is, well--- frankly embarrassing. Don’t give me that look, Professor McGonagall, I know you agree with me. The score now is 130-240. Nothing exciting has happened in awhile, unless you count the Hufflepuff Chasers making goals. DRAGANOV’s performance has left a lot to be desired, but it’s not just him. The Gryffindor Chasers are having a hard time breaking past FORTESCUE’s defense. I’d say the PREWETT twins are doing alright, but there’s only so much the Beaters can do if their team won’t pick up their slack. Our-- I mean, Gryffindor’s only hope rests on the shoulders of DAVEY GUDGEON. Hopefully he can catch the snitch before its too late. I swear on Merlin and Morgana, this match can’t end soon enough. I’m running out of nails to bite!”

“I really didn’t think this match would be as long as the last one, but once again, we’ve hit the 6 hour mark. The score now is 130-270, for Hufflepuff. The entire Gryffindor teams looked nervous. If they don’t make some goals soon, or at least stop Hufflepuff from doing that, then even the snitch isn’t going to save them. The GUDGEON BROTHERS are circling the top of the pitch, looking desperate to find the snitch. Meanwhile, BURBAGE and CATCHLOVE are trying to knock the quaffle out of POTTER’S hands. BURBAGE seems to be using her bat, trying to jab it out of his hands. That’s a move I haven’t seen before. POTTER looks to CHITTOCK for a pass. He pulls his arm back, and --- Oh, Merlin! The snitch hits him right in the cheek! POTTER whirls around confused, before calling waving frantically at DAVEY GUDGEON. Both he and his brother realize what’s happening, and race down to catch it. Could this be it, folks? The exciting end to a day-long game? I hope so. While the Seekers race for the gold, the Hufflepuff Chasers seem anxious to add just a few more points to the board. TONKS grabs the quaffle from a still-distracted POTTER and takes a long, heaving shot towards the goal. I don’t know, but he makes it, bringing the score up to 130-180. Even if DAVEY gets the snitch, the game will be tied, leaving it up to the Chasers again to make the winning toss. Not a good spot for Gryffindor who has struggled with their defense this game. The GUDGEON BROTHERS are side-by-side now. Sibling rivalry must be coming into play, because I see a lot of shoulder-to-shoulder shoving. They’re within ten meters of the snitch, and both have their arms out ahead of them. Down below, MCKINNON and DIGGORY are in a tug-of-war over the quaffle. MCKINNON looks set to win, but then a quick flying bludger from BURBAGE smashes into her wrist, causing DIGGORY to fly off in victory. He pulls his arm back, to make the shot, and scores! The score is now 130-190! Gryffindor hasn’t got a shot in--- GRYFFINDOR HAS CAUGHT THE SNITCH! POTTER is looking upwards in horror at the sight of DAVEY GUDGEON waving the snitch triumphantly in his little brother’s face. I don’t think he’s realized that they’ve lost. What a game. The Slytherins must think so too, because they might be screaming louder than anyone.”

FINAL SCORE:  440 Hufflepuff - 120 Gryffindor

GOALS: Marlene McKinnon (7), James Potter (4), Glenda Chittock (2), Ted Tonks (9), Addie Ivers (9), Amos Diggory (11)

FOULS:  Davey Gudgeon (1)

INJURIES: Addie Ivers (broken ankle, hit with a bludger), Galvin Gudgeon (bloody nose), James Potter (dislocated shoulder), Marlene McKinnon (broken wrist)

And there you have it. Hufflepuff wins the game, but Gryffindor catches the snitch. Like other quidditch matches, curfew has been extended two hours for the students to calm down and celebrate. The corridors are filled with Aurors and Professors to keep an eye on things. One can never be too safe anymore. The Hufflepuffs will likely be celebrating in their common room. The same probably can’t be said for the Gryffindors.

For those of you wondering why on earth Andrei started performing so terribly, it was because he was confunded mid-match. Of course, the Slytherins did this, (any guesses as to which one?) which is why they were so happy to see Hufflepuff win. Many in Slytherin aren’t happy about Andrei being ousted as a Grindelwald supporter, after all.

Your brother is under the impression that you’ve always been a Grindelwald supporter, but he has no idea that you were once in love with a Death Eater. If the news got out within the Army, you would be shunned - and that isn’t the least of your worries. You’re not as willing as your brother is, to do whatever it takes for Grindelwald succeeds - you’re more worried about yourself. You want to do more in life, become a star, and take over the world with your words.

You’re adamant that you’ve chosen the winning team for this war, and eager to be as useful as possible.

PRONOUNS:

She/Her/Hers

SEXUALITY/ROMANTIC ORIENTATION:

Heterosexual

EXTRACURRICULARS:

Slug Club and Potions Club

PERSONALITY TRAITS:

[ + ] Elegant- Goyle women must hold themselves with dignity at all times, and Gwendolyn is no different. From the clothes that she wears to the way that she holds herself, she is the definition of elegance. From her blonde hair to her pale skin, she just looks elegant in whatever she wears. She doesn’t look like the other sixteen year olds in the castle, there is just something that is different about her, and she holds herself differently than most teenagers.

[ + ]  Vivacious- Gwendolyn is always talking and moving. She is an expressive girl, and the best way to describe her is as vivacious. She is lively and talkative, but not in an obnoxious way. She is just a happy girl, who hasn’t gone through troubles in her life—she doesn’t have a lot on her mind, usually, and she is just happy. Gwendolyn is the kind of girl that everyone wants to be around, and she loves having an entourage of adoring followers.

[ + ] Cunning- A Slytherin through and through, Gwendolyn has shown herself to be a cunning girl. She knows how to manipulate a situation to get what she wants, and it is what the Sorting Hat saw in her when the hat was placed on her head. She is a Goyle woman, and in some ways, they have had to work harder than other Pureblood women to get what they want, due to not being Sacred Twenty-Eight families. Gwendolyn watched her mother growing up, and she immediately picked up on Giselle’s cunning nature, and made it her own.

[ - ] Jealous- She is the type of girl that wants to be the most beautiful girl in the entire room. She is always jealous of other girls, and of people that have more than she does. It’s an unattractive quality, but she doesn’t really care about that. There is a reason why she is best friends with boys, rather than girls—they can’t upstage her the way that being best friends with other girls could potentially do. She wants to hold everyone’s attention, all the time, and she isn’t good at sharing. Gregory didn’t make her share very much as children, and he usually gave into his sister, creating this jealous and spoiled girl.

[ - ] Dependent- Gwendolyn has been told what to think her entire life—from her tutors to her brother and her parents, she has never been given the opportunity to come up with her own opinions on things that matter. Given her close relationship with her brother, she has always parroted her brother’s beliefs—on people, on current events, and most importantly, on the Death Eaters and the Dark Lord. But now that her brother has graduated from Hogwarts the previous June, she has been left on her own. She doesn’t know what to think, or what to make of situations without her brother to tell her. It has left her feeling uneven and unsure, and it’s a feeling that she doesn’t enjoy. She has never been given the opportunity to show herself as an independent person, which has led her to being unsure of who she is or what she believes in.

[ - ] Vain- From the moment that she was born, Gwendolyn was told how beautiful she was. Her mother was a real beauty, a French model before she married her father, and Gwendolyn clearly got her mother’s looks. She is the type of person who never leaves her dorm room until she is perfectly put together. She is always wearing makeup, and her hair is always perfectly curled or straightened. You will never see a hair out of place, or a stain on her robes. She believes that her biggest asset is her beauty, after all, she doesn’t think that she is particularly brilliant, so she has always felt like she has had to compensate by her looks.

BIOGRAPHY:

The Goyle family may not be on the list of Sacred Twenty-Eight families in Wizarding Britain, and they may not be Black’s or Lestrange’s, but they certainly hold themselves up to those same key Pureblood standards. The Goyle family owned properties in both France and England, but they didn’t make it onto the list of Sacred Twenty-Eight due to a family member in the early 1900’s marrying a muggleborn. He had been promptly disowned, but the damage was done. The rest of the family was left off of the list, although there are some Goyle’s that believe that they belong on that list.

Born to Gregory and Giselle Goyle on a hot June morning, Gwendolyn came into the world, crying, but perfect. The couple was overjoyed by the birth of their daughter; she completed their perfect little family of four. Gregory Junior, the son, doted on his new little sister, and Gwendolyn looked up at her brother with adoring eyes. Growing up, Gwendolyn was given anything that she ever desired; she was spoiled by a mother that was thrilled to have a daughter, and a father that was doting on both of his children. It was a happy life, a good life. But Gwendolyn’s favorite person in the world was her older brother; she could spend hours following him on his adventures, and playing together. Gwendolyn and Gregory would spend hours playing outside on the Goyle estate in Wiltshire, and they would spend summers in the south of France, playing in lakes and out on the grounds.

But when Gwendolyn turned five, their parents decided that it was time to split up the duo. It was time for Gwendolyn to learn how to be a lady. And so, instead of her lessons with her brother, she was given a new tutor, who taught her in all of the typical subjects that were necessary for a young child, but also in the ways of the Pureblood lifestyle. Gwendolyn was instructed in the proper way to walk, to dress, and how to look like a lady. She took to these lessons very quickly, and it was apparent to all that Gwendolyn would turn out to be a beautiful Pureblood woman when the time came. Gwendolyn and Gregory still played together, but Gwendolyn was no longer willing to play in the mud, or get her dresses dirty. But instead of getting mad, Gregory and Gwendolyn just found new ways to play together.

Growing up in the countryside, Gwendolyn had many playmates. Her mother frequently hosted teas and such at their home, and all of the mothers brought their children. Between her lessons and her playdates and her brother, Gwendolyn never had to learn to entertain herself. This wasn’t a problem in such a busy household, where there was constantly something happening. But when Gregory went to Hogwarts after his eleventh birthday, it left Gwendolyn at home, alone, without her brother. It would be two years before she was able to join him at Hogwarts. Her mother took the time to teach Gwendolyn what it meant to be a Pureblood woman, and prepared her for her future, now that she was without distractions from her brother.

When it was her turn to go to Hogwarts, she had been excited to finally join her friends who had gone the year before. She was sorted into Slytherin like all of the Goyle’s before her, and she settled into school. She was an average student, but her strength was always potions. But even then, she saw school as an opportunity to flirt and be with boys. She was thrilled to be reunited with Gregory, but at school, things were different. She still followed him, and they hung out at school, but they also had their own separate lives. It was a little bit strange for Gwendolyn at first, she had thought that they would be as inseparable as they had been as children, but they had both grown up, Gregory more than Gwendolyn, and it was time that they both grow up.

It was at the end of last summer that her father introduced her to the idea of following the Dark Lord. Growing up, Gwendolyn had been taught that Purebloods were superior, that muggleborns were scum. She had heard the whispers about the Dark Lord, but Giselle had wanted her children to be kept out of it, out of the danger until they were ready. She fought her husband about introducing the children to the idea of service to the Dark Lord before they were ready. But with Gregory out of school, it only made sense that he would join his father in service. Her father revealed that he was a Death Eater to his children, and Gregory took the dark mark that night. Gwendolyn didn’t get to go to meet the Dark Lord, being underage; her mother didn’t want her to be marked. But Gwendolyn heard all about it when Gregory returned, and she decided that she wanted to follow the Dark Lord like her brother, and her friends. It would be a few years before she would be able to actually join, if her father allowed her, but she was dedicated to supporting him, however she could.

✤  Gwendolyn Goyle. ✤  Slytherin / Sixth Year. ✤  Pureblood. ✤  Death Eater. ✤  Open character.

As a Goyle, it’s customary for you to be pretty in green, sporting Slytherin colours year-round. It’s also customary that you follow your older brother’s footsteps, even now that he’s left Hogwarts. You’re both avid supporters of the Dark Lord, but you’ve never been too sure of what you, yourself, stand for. If anyone asked you about your views, you would say something about Muggles not being able to curl their hair to perfection.
