JAMES.

@addieollivander​

“hypothetically,” he started, no greeting, no preamble, as he planted perched himself on the edge of the counter of the herbology shop, watching addie do … whatever it was addie was doing (that he was interrupting), “if a plant was poisonous to humans, but not to animals, but a person was part animal, and ate that plant anyways, would it still be poisonous to them?”

          “ first  of  all  ,   i  am  not  an  expert  .   so  i  would  take  anything  i  say  with  a  grain  of  salt  ,   but  i  think  if  you’re  part  animal  ,   then  it  would  still  be  poisonous  even  in  your  animal  form  .   you’re  still  human  ,   you’ve  just  shifted  into  another  form  ,   right  ? ”   addie  leaned  against  the  counter  and  looked  at  james  .   “ i  wouldn’t  recommend  anyone  eat  poisonous  plants  .   that  could  go  dangerously  wrong  . ”

CRESSIDA. 

cressida’s brows were furrowed as she listened. the vibe cressida was receiving off the customer in front of her was strange – she wasn’t sure how to specify it, though. how to label the feeling. ‘my parents aren’t letting me get them this year.’ sure, it could mean the family couldn’t afford it due to money but… to her, it didn’t feel right. the way it was worded bothered her. but there wasn’t anything she could do about it, she supposed. with the bit of intrigue she had swirling in her brain, it took cressida a few moments to come back to the real world and answer the inquiry, “oh yeah, sure,” cressida answered, waving her hand in a nonchalant manner at all of the clothing in the shop. “if there’s anything you’d want to try on, just for fun or something, don’t be afraid to ask – it’s what i’m here for.” her customer service voice was still in effect. 

          addie  was  not  the  type  to  complain  about  her  home  life  .   there  wasn’t  much  to  complain  about  anyways  .   her  parents  typically  didn’t  bother  her  and  when  they  did  usually  they  just  complained  about  her  .   it  wasn’t  as  bad  as  some  people  had  to  deal  with  so  there  wasn’t  a  need  to  complain  .   and  addie  knew  they  were  better  off  buying  themself  a  new  set  of  robes  .   since  their  mother  was  more  likely  to  throw  them  in  something  horrible  because  her  mother’s  taste  was  horrible  .   addie  didn’t  mind  really  .   “ of  course  .   fancy  things  just  really  aren’t  my  style  .   do  you  have  a  section  for  work  clothes  ?   i’d  like  to  price  out  a  new  set  of  work  robes  . ”   all  she  had  to  do  was  ask  louise  ,   but  it  kind  of  felt  weird  still  to  ask  when  they  had  perfectly  capable  parents  to  buy  them  clothing  .   “ i  normally  just  work  in  regular  clothing  ,   but  i  think  something  fancy  would  be  nice  for  after  i  finish  this  year  of  school  . ”

( cis woman | she/they| kaylee bryant ) —— isn’t that ADELINE OLLIVANDER yeah that is them, sitting there at the SLYTHERIN table with those other SIXTH years. when sybill looks into that crystal ball of hers, she sees hands covered in dirt, gardens filled to the brim with flowers and herbs, scuffed shoes and second hand clothing, and herbology books written with little notes which seems about right for that EIGHTEEN year old. anyway i’ve heard they’re pretty FRIENDLY, SYMPATHETIC, and PREDICTABLE. apparently they’re FOR THE LIGHT and PUREBLOOD but i’m sure that’s not related…

CRESSIDA.

gladrag’s wizardwear had a few different shops across the united kingdom and whilst cressida usually found herself at the hogsmeade branch, the manager overseeing the shop in diagon alley had asked for an extra hand and so she’d volunteered. she preferred the layout of the shop in diagon alley, easier to maneuver when walking around with customers and showing them the displays. after finishing ringing up the person who’d taken an hour of her time on the floor, cressida smiled expectantly at the next person in life, nodding as they spoke. “let me head to the back and check,” she told them, turning around and heading to the room that was filled with the finished orders – but she didn’t see one for a percival ollivander. after a quick chat with one of her coworkers, cressida returned to the front – “the robes aren’t quite ready yet, but they should be finished within the hour. you can either leave and come back or stick around and browse.” 

          honestly  addie  didn’t  want  to  be  running  errands  that  her  mother  could  have  handled  on  her  own  ,   but  if  it  kept  addie  out  of  the  house  then  they  were  perfectly  fine  with  running  them  .   addie  tried  not  to  think  about  how  annoyed  she  wasn’t  getting  new  robes  ,   despite  the  fact  that  she  could  use  her  own  money  to  buy  them  .   it  wasn’t  fair  though  that  addie  had  to  be  the  one  that  was  responsible  when  she  wasn’t  out  of  school  yet  .   they  were  annoyed  at  their  family  ,   waiting  for  a  chance  to  get  out  the  second  she  saw  an  escape  .   “ thank  you  , ”   they  said  ,   a  smile  their  mother  would  never  give  the  other  on  her  face  .   she  waited  patiently  for  the  answer  to  her  question  .   “ oh  ,   um  ,   yeah  .   that’s  fine  .   can  i  stick  around  even  if  i  don’t  plan  on  buying  anything  ?   new  robes  aren’t  ...   my  parents  aren’t  letting  me  get  them  this  year  . ”   maybe  they  wouldn’t  buy  addie  new  robes  ,   but  they’d  sure  treat  them  like  a  slave  as  if  that  was  better  .   she  knew  it  wasn’t  as  bad  as  it  could  be  ,   but  she  didn’t  want  this  treatment  .

          addie  did  not  like  when  diagon  alley  was  busy  with  school  children  .   it  meant  that  they  were  twice  as  busy  helping  with  the  herbology  shop  and  occasionally  running  errands  for  her  uncle  and  cousin  .   today  unfortunately  ,   they’d  been  sent  on  an  errand  to  pick  up  new  robes  for  their  brother  .   “ hello  ,   i’m  here  to  pick  up  some  new  robes  for  ollivander  ,   um  ,   for  percival  ollivander . ”   honestly  ,   they  hated  being  treated  like  a  mule  .   why  didn’t  she  get  new  robes  for  this  year  ?   hers  were  the  ones  falling  apart  because  she’d  had  them  since  fourth  year  .

AUGUSTINE.

@beforedawnstarters​

“I don’t want to go back to school,” Augustine complained out-loud to anyone who would listen to her as her hand scanned across the seventh year Herbology textbooks in Flourish and Blotts. Truthfully, she didn’t know what she wanted to do: go back to school, stay home, or get out of dodge while it was still an accessible option for her. Narcissa’s birthday had always put into perspective how close school was coming, except this time it would be the last year where Augustine would have to feel the incoming dread. The dread for her upcoming seventh year felt worse than the initial six years. “But if I want a good job, I guess I kind of have to go back.” And her parents would be even more furious with her if she didn’t.

          addie  was  both  looking  forward  and  not  looking  forward  to  being  back  at  school  .   it  was  always  good  that  they  were  able  to  get  away  from  home  ,   but  they  missed  the  herbology  shop  ,   they  missed  the  bustle  of  diagon  alley  .   it  felt  kind  of  sad  that  this  was  their  last  little  bit  of  freedom  before  the  school  year  started  and  they  had  to  spend  it  reminding  their  parents  they  were  about  to  go  back  to  school  .   “ i  get  that  .   i  wouldn’t  go  back  if  i  didn’t  have  to  . ”   but  they  did  .   louise  wanted  adeline  to  finish  school  ,   even if  she  could  teach  them  more  than  they’d  learn  in  school  .   sixth  year  was  important  though  .   “ it  won’t  be  that  bad  right  ? ”   they  truly  dreaded  school  ,   being  away  from  everything  .   it  felt  like  hogwarts  was  so  far  out  of  the  way  from  everything  .

EVAN.

@addieollivander​

​evan loved his youngest cousin but he felt too old to be here if he was being honest and he had work tomorrow. though that didn’t stop him from grabbing a drink and going for a walk trying to find a sibling or another family member to tag along with until he eventually dipped. going into the gardens makes him feel sad, it was a hobby that his mother had taken up after his dad passed away, thee was a care that she put into it that she never did with her own kids. so when he sees someone else here he freezes for a moment. “you know the party is over there?” he teases, taking a small drink from his cup. 

          adeline  didn’t  really  know  narcissa  that  well  ,   but  the  invite  had  come  to  the  house  and  their  parents  didn’t  give  them  much  of  a  choice  .   thankfully  ,   it  looked  like  billie  was  here  too  and  that  meant  at  least  they  had  a  friend  .   adeline  ended  up  where  they  always  ended  up  ,   in  the  garden  .   it  was  the  only  place  that  they  liked  to  hang  out  when  they  were  stressed  .   parties  weren’t  really  their  favorite  events  to  attend  ,   they’d  always  felt  more  comfortable  alone  than  surrounded  by  a  lot  of  people  .   adeline  wasn’t  paying  much  attention  to  anyone  ,   so  their  head  snapped  up  when  they  heard  someone  speak  .   “ i’m  aware  ,  these  plants  are  just  so  beautiful  . ”   they  wondered  who  took  care  of  them  .   “ i’ve  only  seen  some  of  these  plants  in  my  books  . ”

LENA.

who: open!

“No, hold still for a second– you’ve got something in your hair, let me fix it.”

          “ oh  ,   it’s  probably  just  a  leaf  or  something  .   i  was  just  tending  to  some  plants  .   thank  you  . ”   addie  smiled  .

REGULUS.

who: open

where: diagon alley

“No, it’s ridiculous. I went in to see if they could fix my collapsable cauldron and the man gave me a lecture on how collapsables aren’t safe– as if I didn’t clearly know they could break, considering I was bringing in a broken one.” Reg scowled, taking a final look back at the shop. “I don’t care if the damn thing offs me, I’m not carrying around fifty pounds of iron.”

          addie  didn’t  want  to  be  doing  errands  for  her  uncle  ,   but  there  was  no  one  else  around  to  do  errands  and  her  mother  wouldn’t  have  done  anything  correct  .   so  adeline  listened  to  reg’s  tirade  then  rolled  her  eyes  .   “ right  .   of  course  they’re  going  to  warn  you  . ”   addie  looked  at  him  with  a  skeptical  look  .   “ if  you  really  have  a  death  wish  ,   then  maybe  you  should  just  ask  one  of  those  friends  of  yours  . ”   personally  ,    they  didn’t  associate  with  the  same  types  of  people  that  regulus  and  her  brother  did  .   “ but  go  ahead  yell  at  the  people’s  jobs  it  is  to  warn  you  of  your  collapsible  cauldron  . ”

III. The Empress — Describe your muse’s relationship with their mother.

          adeline’s relationship with their mother is complicated. charlotte ollivander is not a very kind woman, she’s harsh and judgmental, the complete opposite of the warm and loving relationship addie has with their mentor. charlotte has two moods: the one where she is hypercritical of everything addie does and the one where adeline doesn’t exist. it’s difficult for addie to have a relationship with someone who is hellbent on making their life miserable, and not caring if her other children are making life complicated for addie or not. at bestt, the middle ollivander’s relationship with charlotte is strained. sometimes adeline wishes their mother would at least try to understand them, but addie has mostly stopped wishing for that day. now, they spend their time actively trying to avoid their mother and brothers in favor of the herbology shop.

DILAN.

“from your mum? you mean — are they mean to you, addie? you know you can always come down and meet me at hogsmeade or something, if things at home are — messy.” it was weird living at hogwarts during the summer with her auntie, except for the rare occasions her mum would come and take her on a trip. inviting people over was not exactly possible. “ok, five it is! potions isn’t my strongest either, i just don’t have the confidence i need with it yet and i have to nail my newts this year.” 

          “yeah, unfortunately, she isn’t really... she doesn’t understand me.” none of their family really understood them and addie didn’t know how to make them. “things at home are fine, dilan! i swear.” addie had her mentor when things got too bad and really there were other people that had it worse. besides, addie never let their family get to them. she didn’t need anyone to save her from them. “i’m okay with potions, but plants are easy for me. i can keep plants alive like it’s nothing. maybe this year we can help each other out. i donno how much i need potions knowledge to run the shop, i’ll have to ask. can’t hurt though, you know.”
