THUNDERSTORMS WERE LOVELY INDEED, but when Agatha had decided the campus weather for today while conversing with her mother over a nice warm breakfast, she hadn’t realized the fact that the SHEER MIGHT of her marvelous storm would NEGATIVELY IMPACT any attempts at SOCIAL INTERACTION.

❛ Oh—! ❜⠀Agatha exclaimed, a quiet giggle escaping her lips. ❛ Don't you fret, Mr. Tiggular; I can take care of the rain problem. It’ll take me just one moment. ❜ One of her perfectly manicured hands slipped out from beneath Fiyero’s umbrella, and then, she snapped her fingers. In that very instant, the storm subsided, VANISHING from sight as though there was never a storm at all. Shiz University had been freed from her merciless wrath — at least, until the NEXT TIME that Agatha made the choice to “shake things up a bit.”

For most students of sorcery, the feat which Agatha had just performed would require YEARS of intense magical training under careful supervision. Although Agatha indeed studied this delicate art alongside her mother, weather manipulation had always felt as easy to her as BREATHING. Hence, she managed to appear entirely UNFAZED and UNAFFECTED by this endeavor. ❛ There — ❜ She announced, her lips tugging upward into a small smile. ❛ — now we can socialize in peace without suffering the consequences of Nature’s wrath. ❜

IT WAS NOT ONE’S INHERITANCE WHICH DETERMINED FAMILIAL TIES ⸻ this Bruce now knew for certain, for Rhaegar was HIS BROTHER IN ALL BUT BLOOD. His biological brothers meant nothing to him; Rhaegar, however, meant EVERYTHING. The young boy swallowed thickly, failing in his VALIANT EFFORT to conceal just how much Rhaegar’s words had moved him. A shaky breath was required to steady himself before he could even hope to respond to his dear friend. Merlin — how was it that Rhaegar could always read him like an OPEN BOOK? With most other souls, Bruce would rather DIE than admit to them that he was scared. Rhaegar, on the other hand?

He could tell Rhaegar anything.

❝ Thank you. ❞ Bruce murmured in response, his voice barely above a whisper. ❝ I … you … that means … that means a lot to me. It really does. ❞ You are the first person who’s actually wanted to protect me. Before you, I had no one.

❝ My father … he’s been putting more pressure on me lately regarding what I’ll do when we finish Hogwarts. That shipping company he bought a while ago — the White Star Line? He wants me to apprentice under him for a bit, and then manage the company myself when he passes, but I’m tired. I’m so damn tired of doing what he tells me to do; nothing I do is ever good enough for him, anyway! ❞

@historiavn SENT AN OWL. " i'm tired. tired of being afraid. " | prompt.

there is a silent understanding between them ⸻ two boys so similar, born under circumstances that could not have been more different. both of them, however, are afraid. though rhaegar was afraid of hiding it. the heir looks to nagini in awe —– she is large, larger than the likes of worldserpents, she flies past the grandest mountains & over deepest oceans without fear, for she knew nothing could ever be as great & terrible as her. perhaps, if he clings to the winged mountain tight enough, binds himself to her though his very soul —– he could be fearless too. he needn't fear the sirens that pierced london's nights, he needn't be terrified of the sound of german bombers that carved itself into his mind. ❝ afraid —– ? of your father —– ? ❞ gaunt turns thoughful for a moment. ❝ once i claim my title as head of the sacred twenty - eight. . . ❞ bruce knew of nagini —– watched her grow from the size of a cat to the beast she was today, there were few secrets rhaegar had he would not reveal to his friend. ( just one actually —– the horcruxes. ) naturally ismay also knew of his plan to become subdue the noble families. many a gaunt held this title, for were they not the most sacred of bloods? a custom abolished as the gaunts fell from grace many generations ago, a bloodline grown thin & weak. but rhaegar was different, he would be greater than salazar slytherin himself. ❝ i am still in need of my friend. no one would dare hurt you. i will make sure of that & if not me —– nagini will. ❞

ABOUT THE ROLEPLAYER

◈　NAME　 ⋯ 　callie

◈　PRONOUNS　 ⋯ 　she / they

◈　MOST ACTIVE MUSE(S)?　 ⋯ 　&.

VALORUMS: Shi’al Valorum (Star Wars)

HISTORIAVN: Agatha Morrible (Wicked), Ophelia Chronsturn (Fandomless), Anastasia Andrews-Ismay / RMS Titanic (Historical), Sarah Phillips (Liberty’s Kids / Historical), Abraham Lincoln (Historical), Cassandra Fatesworth (Bridgerton), Ethan Clay (Historical), Robert Todd Lincoln (Historical). I blame my Lincoln family muses on FINALLY getting to have free time for making Actual Progress with the musical that I’ve been developing about his presidency 😭

◈　RP PET PEEVES?　 ⋯ 　&.

People who conflate the muse with the writer. I run into this problem ALL THE TIME with my historical fiction centric muses (ESPECIALLY my historical figures, for obvious reasons), and as I always say in my rules, if someone can’t separate the writer and the muse, then they are not mature enough to write with me. For the MILLIONTH TIME — just because the old dead white guys that I write as hold problematic views doesn’t that I endorse or have those views myself <33333333

Forgetting that plotting is collaborative, and expecting me to do all the work. If you want to interact with me, make an honest effort to match my energy and my contributions during the plotting process. Suggest some ideas and concepts of your own; I don’t bite!

◈　EXPERIENCE/HOW MANY YEARS　 ⋯ 　 I am pretty sure that I've been roleplaying since 2016, which was my freshman year of high school. The musical Hamilton was starting to become popular at that time, so that — as well as the adjacent American Revolution community — was my first RPC. George Washington and John Adams were my very first muses, and Celeste Franklin became my first ever original character created for roleplay. Since then, l've written on Instagram, Discord, and Twitter. Tumblr is probably my favorite platform for roleplay.

◈　FLUFF, ANGST, OR SMUT　 ⋯ 　Out of these three, I like writing a perfect blend of them all. However, my favorite type of roleplay is a secret fourth genre — hurt / comfort.

◈　PLOTS OR MEMES　 ⋯ 　Askbox memes all the way! They are a GREAT way to get interactions going, test the waters of a new dynamic, and start new threads! I also like using them as a springboard for the plotting process. When it comes to “plotting”, I perceive it as an umbrella term that encompasses exchanging headcanons about our muses or discussing character dynamics in detail, so to me it is an ongoing process that begins the moment I reach out to you OOC and continues throughout our roleplays. Plotting only ends when interactions between us end.

◈　LONG OR SHORT REPLIES　 ⋯ 　My replies tend to vary in length, and oftentimes these lengths will match your own. It is the substance that matters to me the most — you just have to give me something to work with by having some form of interaction with my character in your response, and I won’t bat an eye about how long it is.

◈　TIME TO WRITE　 ⋯ 　I try to get my responses done throughout the entire day, but the majority of my writing is typically finished in the afternoon, early evening, and right before I go to bed.

◈　ARE YOU LIKE YOUR MUSES　 ⋯ 　As a writer with multiple muses, the answer is naturally “it depends on the muse”. I’d say that the ones I relate to the most are Shi’al Valorum, Abraham Lincoln (literally why I’m writing a whole entire musical about his struggle with mental health), Sarah Phillips, Emmeline Eisenhower, and maybe Ophelia???
