jsdgdsdsf. awsnap. HERE WE GO.
frank longbottom
- frank is adorable. let’s just start with that. frank is an adorable mess. he’s not an awkward, fumbling mess, but he’s an adorable mess because i say he is.
- his full name is franklin elijah longbottom and he’d like to introduce himself as ‘longbottom, frank longbottom’ but he would laugh too much and it would ruin the entire thing. instead, he just gives that charming half-smile and says ‘hey, i’m frank’. he wants to melt girls’ hearts with it, so smooth and charming but he’s not trying to get into anyone’s pants, this is just how he is.
- he has a fascination with arthurian legends and romances. along with quidditch. he thinks that he should be a knight in shining armour. it’s his favourite halloween costume and he tries to wear it as often as possible. he gets a broom handle and sticks a fake horse head on the end one year and gallops around with it. it doesn’t impress alice, but it got her attention so it’s a proud moment in his life.
- he loves his mother a lot. he thinks she’s fantastic and wonderful. she’s not the best mother in the world, but she took care of him and he wonders what she was like when she was a teenager.
- he has some sort of obsession with being a hero. he wants to save the day. he doesn’t want to have stories written about him or to become a constellation and remembered for all time. he just wants to save the day and be a hero and just get that awesome feeling.
- uh. he likes quidditch. he was a chaser. he can’t pick a favourite team, but he can pick favourite players. it just so happens that he changes his mind every other day , so it’s best to not even bother asking.
- he has a toad named anthony. yeah, yeah, he does.
- his favourite colour is brown. not like, poop brown but chocolate brown. speaking of chocolate, he doesn’t like milk chocolate. just dark chocolate.
- i’m kind of thinking of him as flynn rider, but not really.
- frank is a dork. his smile is dorky. he’s real cheesy and romantic and he likes acting like an older brother to people. or like a father. he’s fatherly!
- frank decided to be an auror when he realized that he couldn’t be a superhero and when dorcas tells him about the justice league, he laughs really hard and that’s what he calls his team when they go out on auror missions.
dorcas meadowes
- okay, let’s start off with the fact that DORCAS MEADOWES IS MY BABY AND I LOVE HER.
- her full name is dorcas prudence meadowes. dorcas like the woman that peter raised from the dead in that story that was in the bible and her mum is somewhat religious. dorcas like tabitha, but dorcas because her mum wanted her to have a unique name instead of a boring name. prudence because her mum pressured her father into picking a middle name and he wanted his little girl to remember that he will always see her as a pure, virginal, chaste, etc princess in his mind and that anyone who tries to corrupt her will pay.
- she doesn’t get along with her mum very well. her mother has a tendency to overract and coddle and panic about everything. she’s pessimistic, but she’s sweet and she just wants to keep dorcas safe. she just think everything will kill her somehow. they bicker a lot, but dorcas loves her mum. she really does. it’s just a real killjoy having to listen to her rant about how dangerous the world is.
- her dad was her best friend when she was a little girl. he often went to the library and took dorcas with him. sometimes she pretended to read like he did, but usually she just sat on the floor with her toys or took a nap. he gave her a stuffed unicorn that she named helios. he’s brilliant and she doesn’t believe in god because she doesn’t know how anyone could be more of a father to her than her real father. he got her into mythology. his personality is similar to hers. he’s optimistic, cheerful and tends to act like a child. the first time she brings a boyfriend home, he pulls him into a headlock and says that he’s never having sex with dorcas. jokingly. sort of.
- she never liked tea parties. they always seemed so boring. she preferred pretending that she was a warrior princess defending her kingdom against her enemies who wanted to steal her crown. helios was always her sidekick.
- for hogwarts, she brought a cat. it was a white persian named marie antoinette. it liked to sit on her feet and hide under her bed. marie antoinette was named marie antoinette because dorcas had thought it was a pretty name and her parents were talking about her for some reason. dorcas didn’t find out who she was until she was thirteen.
- she’s sorted into ravenclaw, not because she was extraordinarily intelligent and clever, because she’s not. she’s not witty. she loves learning. she loves thought of endless knowledge and all the things she could learn about. she loves random facts. she loves history. she loves being right. she was an overachiever. she had to study a lot to get good grades. she spent a lot of time in the library and she enjoyed writing essays.
- she’s muggleborn. both of her parents are muggles. she believed in magic when she was little, but she didn’t expect it to be the way it actually is. magnificent, you know, with many more possibilities than she could have ever imagined.
- she wanted to be a prefect, but it didn’t turn out well. she considers herself a lover, not a fighter. a pacifist. the referee in a boxing match. it doesn’t turn out that way. she tended to jump at people when they called her names or called her friend names. she’d never been a patient person and while she thought that there was good in everyone, she had limits. her favourite threats included saying that she’ll scratch someone’s eyes out or that she’ll get her cat and throw her at them because her cat can be quite vicious.
- she doesn’t understand love. she dreams of romance, of fairy tale romances that don’t get in the way of her adventures. she doesn’t really fall in love, but she’s always infatuated with someone. she doesn’t have a type. she’s fallen for the kind that would be good, suitable matches for her and the kind that would only do her wrong.
- she’s bubbly and loud. she’s sweet. she’s loyal. she acts like a child most of the time. she’s immature and she has a bad habit of laughing at almost everything. she babbles until she can’t anymore. she rambles and she doesn’t think before she speaks. she makes plans, but she never follows through.
- her favourite colour is purple. she loves daisies and lavender. she smells like lavender.
- her room at home is a bright yellow. she ends up painting the walls of her flat different colours. she’s a messy person. her things are scattered everywhere. clothes are never put away. the kitchen is always clean, but that’s because she barely uses it.
- she doesn’t do drugs. she’s never tried them and she never will. she didn’t drink any kind of alcohol until she was twenty. she didn’t like it much.
- she’s excellent at defensive spells. she loves nonverbal spells. she loves magic and charms and doing all sorts of silly things with magic. in duels, she doesn’t smile at all. her eyes are narrowed and her lips are pressed tight. she becomes serious.
- she joined the order of the phoenix because dumbledore asked her to. she never knew about it. she never wanted to be a hero. she wanted to be remembered, but she didn’t want to die. she wanted an adventure and she thought ‘this could be it’. her first thought was ‘this is my adventure’, but then she realized that it wasn’t all it would be all. it was a fight, a battle, a challenge. she wanted to show people that she wasn’t a weak little girl. dumbledore believed in her. that meant something to her. she believed in the possibility of peace and a better world. she wanted to live a happy life without being afraid of death - her own, her friends’, her family’s, etc. she joins because she wants to protect the people she cares about and she wants to help create a better future.
- she gets reckless. she ends up wanting her childhood back. she ends up wishing she was naive and unaware of how horrible the world could be. she loses her friends and she loses her mother in the war. she doesn’t think when she’s in a duel. she can’t think straight. all she wants to do is win and make all the bad people go away. she usually ends up crying in the end. there are several moments when she thinks she’s going to die. she might have killed someone once, but she blocks it from her memory.
- she relies heavily on her friends. a ridiculous amount.
- she never gets married. she never gets engaged. she loses her virginity to a boy she’s sure she’s in love with and she doesn’t regret it. she never has a baby. she never gets pregnant. she tried on dresses with lily when she was getting married and it broke her heart.
- she wasn’t a bridesmaid at lily’s wedding. she was invited and her other friends were bridesmaids, but she wasn’t. it wasn’t anything personal. dorcas had one best friend in marlene mckinnon and she generally drifted around instead of having one set group of friends.
- voldemort kills her personally. she dies just a few days after she turns twenty-one. he doesn’t use avada kedavra. he makes her burn and she screams and cries. it’s an awful day and her last thoughts are about how she didn’t want it to end that way.
alice longbottom
- alice longbottom was born alice prewett. PREWETT. prewett, prewett, prewett. but she wasn’t born a ginger.
- she’s adorable and tiny, but NOT AT ALL. because she can be scary and angry and she has this sort of stare at that’s a mix between hilarious and terrifying.
- she was a badass beater on the gryffindor quidditch team.
- she’s not motherly. she’s not perfect. she has issues when it comes to being emotional and affectionate. it’s just impossible for her or something.
- she has mother issues. it pretty much fucked her up.
- she’s an auror. a badass auror.
- i don’t know what else to say except that she’s badass.
- my love for tanya’s alice is endless.
- the end.
- sorry, tanya, ily. don’t hate me for this horrible headcanon thing for alice. she’s just so badass, i can’t take it. my brain can’t handle it.
fralice (frank/alice)
- they were both gryffindors and the first time they met was at the sorting. frank was sorted first and he kind of shoved alice (BY ACCIDENT) when he was going up to the sorting hat. it wasn’t cute at all. she was sorted a little while after him and he sat beside her. she punched him in the shoulder. he laughed at her for a second and then moved away from her to avoid getting beat up.
- he was twelve when he realized that she was cute. in a little girl/dolly kind of way. she had chubby cheeks and big, blue eyes. he didn’t like her back then. he thought of her as his little sister and he had thought that it was his duty to act as her protective older brother.
- he was still twelve when he realized that she didn’t need him to try to act like an older brother to her. he thought she was funny and decided that he wanted to be friends. he was constantly trying to be friends with her, but she kept pushing him away.
- alice thought he was annoying.
- he was thirteen when he decided that he might just like her. not in love with her. but he liked her. he was pretty sure he wanted to kiss her and be her boyfriend. he got mad whenever someone said anything negative about her.
- once upon a time, he punched someone for her. she got mad at him for making it seem like she couldn’t take care of herself.
- there were many failed attempts at beginning a romance of some sort and, for a while, frank gave up. he dated other girls. he flirted with other girls. alice never liked any of it. they were friends and she was jealous. he kind of liked it.
- once, she got super drunk and tried to convince him to have sex with her. he didn’t. because he’s a gentleman and he doesn’t take advantage of girls in that state.
- they dated for a while in sixth/seventh year then broke up because alice is dumb and got scared. she avoided him. he got angry and almost shagged another girl, but he didn’t.
- they were potions partners and he stole her textbook one day when he was fed up with her ignoring him. he only gave it back to her after she agreed to meet up with him to get it. he hid in a broom cupboard and when she walked by, he pulled her in. they argued for a bit, but they ended up snogging… and stuff.
- he asks her to marry her a million times. literally. she doesn’t say yes until she gets pregnant with neville. he’s never been happier.
- alice didn’t want to be pregnant. she thought she’d be a bad mother, but frank had complete faith in her. he wanted her to quit smoking and swear less though, for the sake of their baby.
- they’re adorable and inseparable and frank acts like her punching bag when she’s upset. he holds her when she’s angry, letting her thrash and try to push him away.
- one time, he leaves her. he gets fed up with her and he walks out the door with a bag of clothes. he only lasts two days. he’d gone to a pub and drank until he couldn’t drink anymore. it was a terrible fight. alice had miscarried and she kept pushing him away and he couldn’t take it. he didn’t know what else to do so he left. of course he came home and they made up. it was real cute until alice started being dumb again.
alcas (alice/dorcas friendship)
- alice was a few years older than dorcas and she’d been there when dorcas, in her first year, was sitting on the stairs, staring up at the ceiling with this blank sort of expression. dorcas called her pretty and alice told her that she was going to get stepped on. someone ended up stepping on dorcas, who cried, and alice punched them. that was the beginning of a beautiful friendship.
- alice treats dorcas like the little sister she never had and no one understands why, but dorcas says that it’s because she’s irresistable and no one can escape her charms. alice just doesn’t say anything. dorcas does all the talking.
- alice says that dorcas is crazy, but finds her endearing and adorable. dorcas thinks alice is brilliant, almost like a role model but not quite because alice is a bit too crazy and she smokes and swears too much. dorcas thinks it’s gross.
- one time, dorcas told alice to stop smoking and swearing. they got into an argument and avoided each other for a long time.
- when alice left hogwarts, dorcas cried.
- dorcas is the self-proclaimed godmother of neville longbottom. yeah, that’s right. alice never says that it’s not true. she goes along with it. frank doesn’t object.
- for dorcas’ nineteenth birthday, frank and alice buy her a kitten (which sirius hates but dorcas doesn’t care because it’s adorable and she loves it).
- sometimes they went on order missions together because alice could actually tolerate dorcas, despite the fact that she always pretended that they were spies or something. it was fun. dorcas brought waffles and alice didn’t any of them.
- dorcas constantly panicked about alice on auror missions. frank usually had to calm her down and remind her about how badass alice was.
- when alice was pregnant, dorcas was more useful than frank because alice mostly wanted to kill frank and he didn’t know what else to do, so dorcas took care of her.
- dorcas was the official neville babysitter.
- alice was the official beat-up-anyone-who-hurts-dorcas… person.
- dorcas’ last order mission was with alice. they were surrounded and they were losing. alice got away, but dorcas didn’t.
- at dorcas’ funeral, alice was in the very back.
uh. sorry. it ended up being really long. x:
She is an idiot and Frank would just like to tell her that, an endless loop of ‘you’re an idiot, Als’, until she finally comes to her senses. Someone needed to tell her that.Some people were too cowardly to try though. Teeny tiny Alice – he can’t imagine how anyone could be afraid of her. He isn’t afraid of her. He’s never been afraid of her. He had always found her amusing. It wasn’t that she was just some big joke to him. It wasn’t even that she was funny, not intentionally. It was just her – the way she was, the acted she acted, those expressions that she could make. He couldn’t take her seriously when people asked her if she liked him and she acted so defensively. He should have gone along with it, like it was a game of pretend and they were both playing. She wasn’t, though. She was serious – or just confused. He didn’t know. He didn’t care. She would always be Alice and he would always find it difficult to not smile whenever she did or said something. Even when she was angry or annoyed with him, he’d just stand there, arms crossed with a grin on his face.
“What the hell are you grinning about?” She’d ask. He should have stopped. He should have held in all that amusement and the laughter that was threatening to burst from him like air in a balloon. But he just stands there, just for a second. Then he walks forward, closer and closer to her. He had always been curious to see how she would react if he backed her into a corner, trapped her there, leaning over her with some cocky expression. Frank had never been arrogant. He very rarely acted like some egotistical prat. His mum always said that a girl always wanted prince charming, not the evil wizard.
“Nothing,” he’d say. In comparison to her, he’s a giant. She is tiny, almost like a doll but not sweet and innocent enough to actually be one. While Alice had the appearance of this adorable little creature, most people wouldn’t have called her ‘adorable’, would they? It seemed unlikely. Frank liked to see her as this adorable creature, though. Perhaps she wasn’t as adorable as some other people, but she still was. Or he was biased. A bias towards her seemed possible – most likely, highly probably.
“Right then. Well, bugger off, all right? You’re freaking me out.” She pushed him aside, swatting away the hands that tried to reach for her. His finger tips brushed against her palms. Once her hands were away from his, he put a palm to her waist. Anyone who was watching them would have been confused. Keep your hands off of her, Frank. They were all thinking it. He just knew it. She doesn’t want you to touch her. No, no, just look at her. She’s holding back. She’s trying to escape from what’s real and what she could have. The possibility of them being together was never going to go away and he wanted her to know that. Just leave her alone. No, no, he couldn’t do that. If he stopped, she might forget. He couldn’t forget her and he was going to make sure that she couldn’t forget about him. She always, always slipped away from him though. She always wriggled away from him or swatted him away. Like he was a fly, a bug that buzzed around her ear, a nuisance.
“You’re such a creep, mate.” His friends would say.
“She loves it.” He’d simply state with a shrug. She’ll get used to it. She’ll come around. She’ll be his one day. He’ll wait. He’ll take the avoiding. He’ll take the insults. He’ll let her punch him and push him. He’ll just wait. She’ll come around. She was being an idiot and she’d realize it sooner or later. Pushing him away wasn’t going to stop him. He wasn’t about to give up.
