Alex wasn't a jumpy person by any means, he was however, startled when Amos came up behind him and threw and arm around him, it wore off quickly though, only to be replaced with a wide grin at the compliment. He didn't particularly care about gaining anyones approval, however, when it came to his brother, he always felt proudest when Amos was proud of him. "So do you," he complimented back "I'd say we're the best dressed siblings here, easily" he boasted proudly, his grin getting even wider when Amos asked about his date. "Good! Really good, actually, I didn't-honestly, man, I thought she hated me but shes just-Shes wonderful, I'm lucky. I'm really lucky." So what if he was gushing a bit? It was his brother he was speaking to, if he could gush about a girl to anyone it would be his brother. "what about you? You came with Penny didn't you?"

Amos was always proud of Alex, but there was something about seeing Alex laughing happily with his date that made Amos' heart feel warm. In certain ways Amos thought that Alex had his shit together more than he did. Amos might be the eldest brother but he didn't always feel like it. As Amos walked back from the drinks table, he noticed that Alex was stood on his own. He approached him from behind, throwing his arm casually over his shoulder. "Looking dapper little bro" Amos meant it too, if there was one thing you could say about the Diggory siblings it was that they had style. "How's the date going?" Amos loved romance, he just knew it wasn't for him, so instead he enjoyed living vicariously through others.

"I think you look great!" Alex exclaims confidently as he also gives himself a once over in the mirror. He wasn't nervous really, unsure was the better term for it. He hadn't thought Selma would have actually agreed to a date with him, much less to the yule ball, so when the other had, he suddenly cared a lot more about how he presented himself tonight. It's not like Selma was someone who was easy to please, she spent more time scolding him than anything else. "her right!" He answers his friend confidently before pausing, a frown forming on his face and he turns to look at Ludo "I think? Wait..." This was a dilemma, clearly and while, Alex thinks Ludo looks better with it on his left, which, would be right to everyone else, but was Nancy the kind of person to just flip it around for the sake of confusion? Was she aware it only made it more confusing? "I think it looks best right now" he finally says, if Nancy didn't like it then, in his opinion, she should be more clear. He gives a small laugh at Ludos encouragement "Well, she always looks nice, especially when shes not upset with me," he said before making a face of annoyance "Thats rich coming from someone who goes to a school called ilvermorny. Our accent sounds weird? Their names sound weird. What the hell even is a Pukwudgie?" He asked sarcastically before nodding his head "Oh absolutely. I reckon if you ask she'll dance with you, you're killing it in that suit!" He says encouragingly.

"what do you think?" the hufflpuff asks as he looks himself over in the mirror above the sink, smoothing his hair to one side with his wand - when it came to his hair, he often had no trouble performing simple charms. "right, or left?" he asks, glancing over at alex momentarily. "nancy usually likes it on the right," he suggests, before furrowing his brows, "or...my left. right? mine or hers..." he mutters to himself, too focused on his hair to really care. "how's it going, then? selma's looking quite nice tonight. i reckon she did that for you." he snickers, finally deciding on the right side and standing up straight to wash his hands. "that ilvermorny girl," ludo adds, wringing his hands dry, "says we talk funny. we talk funny," he laughs with a shake of his head. "she dances alright. light on her feet. you think nancy noticed me?" he concludes, obviously having one thing on his mind.

Alex was not wasting the day away, in fact, he took great offence to the insinuation otherwise. Had he skipped his mornings classes? Yes. Had he had an excellent reason to? Of course! He had been out late last night and he needed to sleep! Alex without his sleep was not an Alex anyone wanted to see, afterall. Besides, its not like he went to his morning classes ever anyway, his professors certainly wouldn't miss him.

He didn't even know what Selmas problem with him was anyway. It's not like it was any of her business what he did with his time and for the record, making paper birds and charming them to attack students as they walked by was an amazing use of his time. "What are you doing?" He challenged back, a cocky grin on his face "I'll have you know, I'm working on my charms homework right now actually." He lied through his teeth as he uncupped his hands and watched as the paper bird took off after a first year. "See? Magic."

@corvusoculis

who: @alexdiggory where: central hall

In a world such as theirs Selma could hardly ever be said to lack meaningful things to fill her time with. Whether it be her dedication to the charms club, her determination when it came to transfiguration and the ever-growing need to let those spells turn into something more creative. Of course, alchemy wasn't something to be underestimated either. The week had been hectic, with the witch running as though stopping could mean certain doom. She was simply busy. Her arms held the books intended to be returned to the library. In fact, if all went according to plan there'd be a much needed study session ahead of her.

Yet it all changed when her eyes trailed the hall around her, observing the students as they went about their business. For a moment she stopped, allowing her steps to slow in order to take in the sights around her. The witch always felt a calming presence when around others simply living their lives. That was until her eyes fell upon an all too familiar figure, seemingly as idly as she'd ever see him. There was sadness and disappointment within the sight in front of her, mixed with a certain and all too familiar feeling of frustration. It was quite the confusing combination that made her emotions boil to the surface and yet demanded to be controlled. "What are you doing?" Without much care she dropped the books onto the bench next to him, eyes not even bothering to look down. "Please, tell me you're not wasting away the day." One could have accused her of being too harsh. And it was certainly a possibility, yet there was a sort of caring laced within her voice.

Alex was, truthfully no stranger to getting into trouble, most of it came simply from his lack of willingness to do, well, *any* of his work, but occasionally, his own actions and habit for being particularly annoying got the better of him and landed him in similar positions. He took it about as seriously as you would expect a toddler to, though. Especially when the person scolding him was Alice. It's not that he didn't respect her, he actually respected her a great deal. She was easily one of his favorite people and sure, he loved to annoy her but he would also not even hesitate to hex the shit out of someone who genuinely hurt her. He's known her a long time and had viewed her as an equal for so long that when she tried to scold him for anything it just... Never really stuck. He doesn't even bother trying to hold back his grin as he steps into the room and it only widened when he heard the *reason* for it. "Ah, well, sounds like ol' Sluggy needs to get a sense of humor then. My costume was a hit." he stated confidently.

@aliceelspet

when: early November 1978 where: Hufflepuff common room who: Alice and @alexdiggory

Alice had been ecstatic when she’d been chosen as one of the Hufflepuff security czars for her last year. Not only was it a recognition of all the work she’d been doing, it also felt much more important than being a prefect, something she’d only been interested in as a stepping stone to head girl and not terribly put out about being passed over for. However, now that she’d been at school for a couple months, the reality of the position was not quite the same as what she’d imagined. True, she’d been given permission to set up basic self-defense classes for her house, but there was also quite a bit of being told to tell off students for things she didn’t feel needed telling off.

Today, the object of her luke-warm scolding was Alex Diggory, which was absurd; the kid could be annoying, sometimes, but he didn’t threaten anyone’s safety. But when a professor got involved, she couldn’t do nothing, so she called him into the little office off the common room that she hated using. When he arrived, she got straight to business. “Slughorn says there have been complaints about your costume from the Hallows Eve fair.”

[alexdiggory]

Alex wasn't one to skip breakfast, ever, really. Or any meal for that matter. Did it tend to make him late for his classes? Yes. Did he once even slightly care about that fact? No. Classes in general were so far from his main priority and food was much closer to the top. There were very few things that would have pulled him away from heading into the great hall for breakfast but his brother was one of them. His face broke out into a grin at the compliment, the festival had been a blast if only because of how much he had managed to terrorize the village. "Honestly mate, I don't know why we use wands. Arrows are so much better." Sure, Alex had charmed the arrows, but it was still much more fun than casting boring old spells.

Who: @alexdiggory Where: outside the great hall after lunch

Amos was still tucking into a doughnut as he left the great hall. The feast today had been particularly good and it had boosted his mood. Thant and this mornings Quidditch practice had been fantastic. Amos was already super proud of his team this year. They were going to win the tournament this year, he already knew it. Maybe that was cocky, he didn't care and well it wouldn't be the first time Amos has been excused of being over confident. He couldn't wait to play an actual match, he was basically itching for it. There was nothing like the adrenaline rush of playing a Quidditch match. Well maybe one thing, but that could come with complications. "Oi" Amos shouted out as he saw Alex "heard you were terrorising the whole of Hogsmeade at the festival, well done mate- really keeping the Diggory legacy going with that one."

10. how many pillows does your muse sleep with? are they comfortable with just one or do they like to be cozy?

At home Alex has two pillows, he sleeps comfortably with that amount, however, he thinks its absolutely hilarious to steal pillows from other students (particularly the older ones) and usually by the end of the school year his bed is more pillows than it is bed.

Alex was having the time of his life at this event. He hadn't had a plan or even an idea on what to do for a costume up until Penny had approached him and asked him to match. He had admittedly not even a clue on who snow white was or what a huntsman *did* but the older girl had sold the idea of the costume to him the moment she mentioned a bow and arrow. He was ignorant to a lot of muggle things but he had always held a fascination with muggle weapons and how impractical but amusing they could be. He of course, for safety reasons had charmed the arrows to hit their target because as much as Alex wanted to cause chaos he did *not* fancy the idea of accidentally shooting someone in the eye. This was supposed to be fun, not murderous. The first thing he notices when Penelope calls for him was the basket of apples and instantly Alex knew what he was going to spend the rest of the night doing. He hadn't really paid much attention to her when she explained the story of snow white, he's not sure if the huntsman was supposed to save Snow White or harm her, but *this* huntsman was going to shoot her apples.

"Hey!" He said cheerily, perhaps putting too much effort into sounding innocent that he sounding suspicious more than anything. "You do look marvelous!" He said genuinely, he doesn't know what snow white was supposed to look like, but Penny looked amazing anyway. At the offer of an apple he nodded "Sure, I'll have one," it would be the last one she got to hand out without an arrow through it though.

who: @alexdiggory where: shops near the apple bobbing stall

For minutes at a time had Penelope walked the streets, browsing a shop or stall here and there, admiring decoration the next moment. The village had been transformed into quite the spooky place, yet it had no lost its coziness at all. If there was something the Gryffindor was sure, it was that at this very moment she was all the happier having come to the celebration much rather than stay at the castle. Then again, staying behind had never been something one could ever say about the witch.

After having said goodbye to Amos, watching him pretty much dance across the floor to wherever he was going to dash off to, the witch had been in dire need of distraction. Of course, never would she have demanded time with her best friend like that. Not when they both had so many others to meet. No one would ever be able to say that Penelope Borgin didn't care about those she considered her friends. In fact, she probably cared a little too much about all of them.

Finally, she spotted him. The one she'd been looking for. Alex Diggory, brother and friend and the very being to have agreed to match her costume in ways no one else would have. "There you are!" She hurried over to him. "I'll admit, it was harder to find you than I thought possible despite Hogsmeade not exactly overflowing with huntsmen."

Penelope twirled in a circle. "How do I look? I put effort into the costume. It needs to look at the very least marvelous." She chuckled. Of course, Penn had never, nor would she ever, been that vain. At the end of the day she only hoped for a good time here and there. "Would you like an apple?"

hc + 🏆 for a goal-themed headcanon

Alex doesn't really have goals, he's coasting through life currently not really giving two shits about anything other than enjoying the moment.

[alexdiggory]

🌋 VOLCANO - how bad is their temper? is it a slow boil, or a instant explosion?

Alex's temper is really non-existent. I suppose you could call it a slow boil but he tends to bury every negative emotion, he refuses to let things bother him or even deal with his own emotions properly. On the rare moments where everything does boil over on him he deals with it by blowing off steam in various ways (smoking, drinking, partying). He can't even remember a time where hes raised his voice slightly.

[alexdiggory]

🌌 MILKY WAY - what was the inspiration behind your oc? what was the first thing you decided about them?

So Alex is actually a re-do of an OC I used to use in groups all the time. A lot of the time I end up writing characters that don't really get along well with a lot of people which causes problems when it comes to activity. Alex came about as my first shot at an extremely extroverted character. When I originally made him the first thing I decided was that he was a goofball. When I was revamping him for this rp the first thing I had decided was that he wouldn't be taking anything seriously.

Who: @ivelisseeavan  Where Just outside the three broomsticks

Alex was having the absolute best time of his life tonight. Not only did he just thrive in general around a lot of people but he also was having perhaps too much fun with his costume. He hadn't had a plan until just a week ago when Penelope had approached him and while he had been...Skeptical about going as a huntsman he had been sold to the idea the moment he found out he got to carry around a weapon. His bow and arrow had become a great source of amusement for him, he had already been kicked out of three shops and that was before he got a few butterbeers and several shots of firewhiskey in him. He's so grateful for his past self for charming the arrows to always hit their mark in hindsight because he certainly would have taken a few peoples eyes out by now if he hadn't. It unfortunately has given him an over inflated sense of confidence though which is what inevitably leads to him shooting an Arrow right beside Eavans head as she walks out of the pub. Now, Alex isn't an idiot, he's aware of how little Eavan likes him. If he was smart maybe he would leave her alone but he at the very least, pretends he isn't. He's long since made it a mission to annoy her into liking him and apparently the best way to do hat tonight would be to shoot an arrow at her! It was foolproof! "Hey, give that back, would you?" He called out to her, a wide grin on his face.

[alexdiggory]

Alex is going as the huntsman from snow white to pair with Penelope's Snow White. Overall his outfit isn't super impressive, he however has charmed his arrows to always hit on target and has taken a particular liking to annoying Penelope by constantly shooting arrows at apples she is trying to give out.

Alex admittedly hadn't been the best as of late with keeping up with his brother but he had full intentions this morning on annoying the absolute shit out of him. It was pretty much his most important job as a younger sibling and Amos had gotten way too long of a break from it because of Alex's own laziness. It had absolutely nothing to do with the fact that he missed his brother, no, he was a younger brother! He had a responsibility to annoy Amos as much as humanely possible, a responsibility he was slacking on.

As he walked into the great hall instead of taking a seat at the hufflepuff table like he usually would he went right to the gryffindor table, sitting across from his brother but not before stealing a piece of toast directly from his plate with a grin, completely ignoring the giant serving of it right next to him, taking a bite out of it before his brother could even say anything. "Good morning," he said, his tone cheery as he feigned innocence.
