THE MEDDLER'S ALMANAC

[chryseis]

With the flood of new players (hi! yay!!), I thought it might be nice to have a concise place to talk about our character's relationships. The Winter Formal is coming up, you guys!!! Honestly, I just didn't wanna risk stepping on anybody's toes in my OOC attempt to fill people in or Cricket's IC attempt to relinquish her Queen Meddler Crown to Bae. I know we just did a Wanted Lines meme and we have lots of intros to sift through, so this can be very brief. Basically, just include what you think a student who reads the journals regularly/has working eyeballs would know about your character's relationships so far.

Character Name:
House and Year:
Sexuality: If you feel comfortable, let us know how a well-intentioned meddler might perceive your character's sexuality.
Bestest Buds: Who is your character always seen with? The best meddlers know not to throw wrenches in friend groups.
Notable Past Relationships: Has your character dated anyone casually or exclusively in the past?
Current Relationship Status: Are they single or spoken for?
The Messy Bits: Would it be obvious to an observant meddler that your character has a crush on their bestie? Or has your character engaged in public flirting and/or fighting on the journals? What's going on in the ol' Gooseberry rumor mill???
Anything Else: Optional. Is there anything else you want people to know?
A Cute GIF of Your Character: Optional. But we're honestly incorrigible, so.

[cyrano.insanejournal.com]

A Cute GIF of Your Character:

Quinn Cunningham

[quinning]

(NOW THAT I'M NOT COMMENTING FROM THE WRONG JOURNAL I WILL INSTEAD DISTRACT YOU WITH THIS RACY ICON)

Character Name: Quinn Cunningham
House and Year: Azurcrest Senior
Sexuality: Assumed predominantly heterosexual, only relationships/etc. have been with dudes.
Bestest Buds: Jesse McBride, Chris Park, & Tess Noble.
Notable Past Relationships: Dated Rafael Ramirez from mid-Sophomore year to spring Junior year; this is very well-known and the breakup was fraught. Dated Chris Park for a total of like two weeks late last spring.
Current Relationship Status: She's single and she INSISTS SHE LOVES IT but secretly she's used to the closeless of a beau and is lonely SHE'S SO INDEPENDENT, YOU GUYS.
The Messy Bits: She will punch anybody in the face that says she has a crush on Jesse. Has hooked up with Chris a couple of times but not lately. She flirts left and right, engages enthusiastically in Grotto kissing games, is not above hookups. Occasionally makes :/ faces at Rafael and Leo but doesn't mean to.
Anything Else: I have no idea~
A Cute GIF of Your Character: Another too-old-for-Quinn-but-w/e-gif. Possibly also how her relationship with Chris began.

Re: Quinn Cunningham

[bambae]

He found it romantic tho

[pageantry.insanejournal.com]

Character Name: Antonia Papadakis.
House and Year: Ebonhide Junior.
Sexuality: A meddler would assume that she is heterosexual.
Bestest Buds: Martina Fanning, Diana Gam, Bae Hartman, Vee Powers.
Notable Past Relationships: Gavin Ogletree, so far.
Current Relationship Status: Single.
The Messy Bits: Antonia engages in public flirting but she never initiates. So, it's not readily obvious that there's anyone catching her eye. She tends to publicly discuss how attractive the Quidditch guys are and any male-cheerleaders. She's more lax with certain members of the student body when it comes to her prefect-ing so that could lead to people thinking she has a crush? Otherwise, the whole girl thing is under lock and key.
Anything Else: Nope!

[chryseis]

Um, I just wanna say that Antonia is totally mini-Cricket and I LOVE THAT. All her gentle prefect scolding followed by <3 is so Cricket's style, only Cricket's preferred signature is an exclamation point and a smiley face (which I think reads as slightly more condescending).

Anyway, keep up the good work. 10/10

BAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Bailey Hartman.

[cyrano.insanejournal.com]

Character Name: Bailey Hartman.
House and Year: Ebonhide Junior.
Sexuality: Heterosexual.
Bestest Buds: Antonia Papadakis, Diana Gam, and Martina Fanning. The Ebonhide Junior girls. Cameron Carney. Joanna May.
Notable Past Relationships: Maybe Diego for a week at St. Cyprian? TBD on that. Otherwise, nothing notable yet.

Anything Else: Uhhhhh... I'm hungry.
A Cute GIF of Your Character:

[chryseis]

I am in awe that you organized a game wide matchmaking service on DAY ONE of being in this game. So impressed. Bae is bae.

Christopher Park

[bambae]

Character Name: Christopher Park
House and Year: Senior Coppertale
Sexuality: Bisexualish. And it's obvious. Literally everybody probably knows.
Bestest Buds: Ryan hertz. and quinn cunningham. and robin youngblood (and Tess, and Trixie) and Ty.
Notable Past Relationships: Quinn Cunningham for a couple weeks at the end of last year. And Levi wasn't official but probably pretty notable.
Current Relationship Status: Single
The Messy Bits: WELLL according to the anon post, Chris and Rosy should just kiss, so it's also pretty obvious that chris has been flirting with rosy. He also took her to the last dance they had. He's also been suspiciously nice to diego, cecil and avery, which is suspicious.
Anything Else: i love that every meme we do here forces us to find cute gifs. and i'm gonna post the same gif every time bc it's the cutest gif i have
A Cute GIF of Your Character:

Re: Christopher Park

[alohaha.insanejournal.com]

An says she's hurt their hook ups where he talks hockey are not front and center on his mind (no she is not)

Ennis Harper

[sheepish]

Character Name: Ennis Harper
House and Year: Ribbonfin Junior
Sexuality: Probably perceived as asexual, but he's displayed very innocuous romantic inclinations toward both genders.
Bestest Buds: Colleeeeeee(?) seems like his closest friend so far. (POSSIBLY KURT AND CHLOE?? I need to reply to lines.) And he's around Riley a lot at parties, but they're not actually Bestest Buds even if Ennis perceives them to be. His line post just went up yesterday so everything's still TBD and being worked out.
Notable Past Relationships: Carried on a shy flirtation with Moaning Myrtle last year but otherwise, nope.
Current Relationship Status: Single.
The Messy Bits: NOTHING MESSY ROMANTICALLY. He's just fucking weird.
Anything Else: His thing with visiting Myrtle in her bathroom was the closest thing he's ever gotten to "dating" and it still wasn't dating. He just liked her attention. He's never dated, he's never kissed, he doesn't go to dances except as an event committee member to help keep things running. He's totally lame.
A Cute GIF of Your Character: I KNOW YOU THINK HE'S SCARY, ALEENA, BUT LOOK AT HIM IN HIS LIL SWEATER:

AH!

[chryseis]

"Colleeeeeee(?) seems..."

My real name is Colleen, so even that was unintentionally spooky!!

[riledup]

Character Name: Riley Stamper
House and Year: Azurcrest Junior
Sexuality: Gayyyyyyy. But so so so without boundaries that it might come across that she's more into guys than she claims, but Riley pretty much exclusively prefers pretty faces and very very clothed boys.
Bestest Buds: Katya Ivanova, Levi Kramer, Diego Morales, Kenzie Prince, Regan Hobbs, Cameron Carney, Ennis Harper, oh my god she claims so many people as her bestest buds this is awful
Notable Past Relationships: Last year she had a cute little romance with a Hufflepuff girl at Hogwarts. Her freshman year she also probably made out with all of her roommates, and anyone, literally anyone at a party, like throw them at her idc.
Current Relationship Status: FREEWHEELIN'.
The Messy Bits: So far this year she's made out with Regan at as many parties as she could manage, took Chloe to the Halloween dance and immediately forgot about her afterwards, and kissed Mina Tran once and decided she was going to sexually harass her into angrily making out in a broom closet.
Anything Else: She is the actual worst sorry.
A Cute GIF of Your Character:

Kurt Wolfhart

[puphart]

Character Name: Kurt Wolfhart
House and Year: Ribbonfin junior
Sexuality: Kurt assumes he's heterosexual and has no reason to think otherwise.
Bestest Buds: Chloe, Ursula, and I think ~Pippa~ gets ~promoted~ to this tier as well. I definitely missed someone. Sue me. (Maybe also Ennis?)
Notable Past Relationships: HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA. oh.,. that's not a joke?? No, Kurt has never had a non-platonic relationship with anybody.
Current Relationship Status: Kurt is p sure he's single
The Messy Bits: I DON'T KNOW, CRICKET, IS IT OBVIOUS??? (but for realsies:) It's no secret that he's romantically/sexually naïve. He did go to the Halloween dance with Pippa AND they even DANCED. And they danced at a Grotto party. He is confused about all of this, though. He's also very confused because Mufferaw just told him this week that Kurt's got it bad for Chloe (his BFFL) and Kurt is in denial and very confused.
Anything Else: (Kurt is actually In Love with Chloe and Doesn't Realize It, hello teenaged tropes!)
A Cute GIF of Your Character: Lookit this cutie patootie:

[chryseis]

It's not obvious to Cricket! But, then again, she is a stalwart believer in heterosexual boys and girls ability to be JUST FRIENDS.

Garrett Ogletree.

[isolate.insanejournal.com]

Character Name: Garrett Ogletree.
House and Year: Coppertale Sophomore.
Sexuality: Bisexual.
Bestest Buds: Luis Pinheiro, Ramon Delgado, his twin brother, Victoria Powers, and any one of his adopted mentors or siblings.
Notable Past Relationships: Not that I know of, but I haven't updated his storylines page since earlier this afternoon.
Current Relationship Status: Single.
The Messy Bits: Pssh.
Anything Else: He flirts a lot and doesn't mean anything by it. Yet is also strangely awkward.
A Cute GIF of Your Character:

[browbeats]

Character Name: Rosemary Stoker
House and Year: Ribbonfin Junior
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Bestest Buds: uhhh. Ferdinand. Probably Saira. And Sy, don't set her up with Sy.
Notable Past Relationships: lol no
Current Relationship Status: FOREVER ALONE.
The Messy Bits: If you can't tell she has a crush on Chris, you're not paying attention.
Anything Else: lmao fuck me idk
A Cute GIF of Your Character: Sometimes I just cannot handle how much more adorable Rosy's PB is than Rosy.

[threatens]

sy has noticed she has a crush on chris and he is attempting to have zero opinions about it

not counting their written agreement ofc

Ryan Hertz

[dooomcookie]

Character Name: Ryan Hertz
House and Year: Azurcrest Senior
Sexuality: Heterosexual (which is obvious according to Levi ;D)
Bestest Buds: Chris Park, Penelope Vargas, Quinn Cunningham...and probably his roomies ;)
Notable Past Relationships: Zoey Valentine. Pretty much his only serious relationship, also noticeable.
Current Relationship Status: Single
The Messy Bits: Ryan has lingering feelings for Zoey, which he is hoping isn't noticeable but feel free to correct us there. He definitely has been seen around her at the most recent parties and quarantines and such.
Anything Else: He's been pretty sullen since the Amortentia incident, but nope.
A Cute GIF of Your Character:

[chryseis]

MORE SAD GROTTO HUGGING PLZ

Casey Patterson

[sunsoutgunsout]

Character Name: CASEY Patterson
House and Year: Coppertale Junior
Sexuality: Is it probably human? Is it hot? Casey will try.
Bestest Buds: HIS BOY JAY WOOD~ and then the Mean Girls Clique (like, Coralee, Kenzie, Riley, Ari?) He's also Cricket Quayle's Woke Padawan but I'm not sure how well-known that is.
Notable Past Relationships: idek how many people have been established as having hooked up with this dude. No relationships, though, and no emotional attachments.
Current Relationship Status: Single
The Messy Bits: Nothing is messy with Casey, he promises.
Anything Else: LIKE, WHAT? I DON'T KNOW.
A Cute GIF of Your Character: Casey read the anon comments about himself and loved them.

Casey Patterson

[browbeats]

Was briefly the future Mr. Casey Stoker 😘

[hisshiss]

Character Name: Robin Youngblood
House and Year: Coppertale Senior
Sexuality: I got tired of trying to figure out how to define it in his app so I just said some kind of vague gray asexual. He tells people sex is a conspiracy. You're better off not asking about it.
Bestest Buds: He is sewn to Trixie Armstrong's hip whenever they're not in class, Tess Noble, Chris Park.
Notable Past Relationships: lmao stfu
Current Relationship Status: don't worry bout it
The Messy Bits: The Amortentia made him realize some things. And those some things was that falling in love potion with Trixie was not that different from just hanging out with Trixie on a daily basis. But no no nah it's cool it's cool he's shutting that down, that's, like, no, it's cool.
Anything Else: Voted Least Likely to Realize He's In Love With His Best Friend.
A Cute GIF of Your Character: Robin joins the Put Your Damn Shirt Back On Club.

[sunsoutgunsout]

YEAH ROBIN, YOU'VE SEEN THE LIGHT

I don't have that damn Twilight thing handy and every time I think about it I giggle for three straight minutes. I'm giggling now just thinking about it. Alex, you always seem to have the link, can you please post it here for me. :(

Rafael Ramirez

[firstposition.insanejournal.com]

Character Name: Rafael Ramirez
House and Year: Coppertale Senior
Sexuality: Was apparently very heterosexual until late last year when he abruptly came out. He's somewhat inconsistent/evasive when asked directly, but presumably he's bisexual.
Bestest Buds: Ravi, Wes, Ty, Sun-mi.
Notable Past Relationships: Dated Quinn Cunningham mid-Sophomore year to spring Junior year. It was pretty obvious he didn't want to break up. He hadn't dated anyone before her, and didn't date anyone else until...
Current Relationship Status: He started dating Leonardo Fiori last month.
The Messy Bits: Last year during LARP, not long after his breakup with Quinn, Rafael lost it at Ravi for kissing him while they were "in character". The details would be unknown to the common meddler, as Rafael's not willing to discuss it. Also, Rafael's recently graduated older brother, Ricardo, was narcissistic and melodramatic, and loved to aggressively critisize anyone who showed romantic interest in Rafael. Quinn got the brunt of this, and Leo's not safe either if he ever has to meet Ricardo. As a result, Rafael's a lot more inexperienced than he acts.
Anything Else: NOPE.
A Cute GIF of Your Character: I've got nothing but these sexy dancing gifs.

Re: Rafael Ramirez

[quinning]

MEGGIE ALL OF THESE DIEGO LUNA GIFS MAKE ME FEEL THINGS
I WANT YOU TO STOP AND I ALSO DON'T WANT YOU TO EVER STOP POSTING THEM

Magdalen Gillis

[momblogger]

Character Name: Maggie Gillis
House and Year: Ebonhide Senior
Sexuality: Big ol' lesbian.
Bestest Buds: CRICKET AND NATE~~ BEST FRIENDS FOREVER~~
Notable Past Relationships: Dated the Head Girl last year (I've named her Anjanette, goes by Anj), dated Etta for ~2 months her Sophomore year.
Current Relationship Status: Single
The Messy Bits: It's not hard to guess that she's still kind of hung up on her ex, even though she claims otherwise. She hasn't made a move on other girls, but she's starting to panic now that winter formal is nearing.
A Cute GIF of Your Character:



Maggie pretending not to care about nobody asking her to be their date to the dance :^(

[tinyrebel.insanejournal.com]

Totally off topic here but I own that exact hoodie and it is literally super comfortable.

Veronica Powers

[cheerpowers]

Character Name: Vee Powers
House and Year: Ebonhide Junior
Sexuality: Heterosexual, but bicurious. (She has only kissed like one girl, but is super flirty so I'm sure people notice because she's not embarrassed or even really bi. She just is super comfortable in how she interacts LOL)
Bestest Buds: Clem Decourt. Ty Hawkeswood. Atonia Papadakis. VICTORIA POWERS. And literally a ton of people so if we've discussed it and I didn't put them up here, please forgive me because she loves everyone.
Notable Past Relationships: Dated Diego Morales (not sure how long or details there, HELP ME MEGGIE) I'm open to a couple others if you want!
Current Relationship Status: Spoken for I think? She is honestly not sure because no 'defining the relationship' has happened, so she's just going with the flow but obviously likes Ras. <3
The Messy Bits: Nothing messy unless someone noticed she had some fun at the last Grotto party...
Anything Else: Nope!
A Cute GIF of Your Character:

[tinyrebel.insanejournal.com]

Well duh, yeah Ras.

i started this meme not putting the names in the subject & i'll die that way

[birdbrainy]

because aleena will kill me if i leave nate out of this meme

Character Name: Nathaniel Bird
House and Year: Ebonhide Senior
Sexuality: Shy lil ol straight dude
Bestest Buds: PLATINUM TRIO LIFE, CRICKET & MAGS
Notable Past Relationships: He dated Cricket when they were in Ilvermorny and they were like...what was it, 12? Supes cute.
Current Relationship Status: Dating the library.
The Messy Bits: He took Tabitha to the Halloween dance and then he smelled something that might implicate him being in like with her in his Amortentia, and now they have a log that I owe a tag on in which that plot moves forward.
Anything Else: IDK CRICKET YOU TELL ME.
A Cute GIF of Your Character:

NATHANIEL DAVID BIRD

[chryseis]

Yes. Yes, I will.

UM! Observant meddlers will recognize that Cricket is super possessive of Nate. She's probably chased off lesser women (than Tabs) in the past. "No, Nate can't come out and play today. He's busy!"

[tinyrebel.insanejournal.com]

Character Name: Ferris
House and Year: Ebonhide Sophomore
Sexuality: Straight.
Bestest Buds: Um. Solomon? Does she have any other friends?
Notable Past Relationships: Ferris is brand new here, her first year at Gooseberry. Pretty sure she's had one boyfriend some point in her life who was a team roper.
Current Relationship Status: Single. She hates everyone mostly.
The Messy Bits: She has been less hateful toward her solitary friend. Some nods across the class, you know those sorts of things. Ferris claims she hates him.

[thecourtier.insanejournal.com]

Joanna says UM EXCUSE YOU DO I NOT COUNT sadface etc. <3

Hazel Keating

[lilwitchhazel]

Character Name: Hazel Keating
House and Year: Coppertale Sophomore
Sexuality: Heterosexual and unexciting
Bestest Buds: Ty! Susana now hahaha. Coppertale cheer and Quidditch peeps.
Notable Past Relationships: She hasn't dated anyone but she's probably kissed a few people at parties, but just the silly awkward kind of kissing
Current Relationship Status: Single
The Messy Bits: Hazel really has nothing interesting on her! She doesn't understand the boy craze but is totally starting to get inklings of interest in dating. She's confused about them, though, so she just acts them out by being kind of pushy and mean (in an endearing way)! I imagine it's super obvious to other people that she flirts like a six year old boy but she'd deny it's flirting
Anything Else: She's weird like everyone else :D
A Cute GIF of Your Character:

Re: Hazel Keating

[bambae]

chris should just take her under his wing and teach her how to punch the boys she likes in the face. Trust him - they'll love that.

Susana Velasquez

[pintsizedsass]

Character Name: Susana Velasquez
House and Year: Sophomore Coppertale
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Bestest Buds: Essie Morales-Tran, Pippa Nightengale, Victoria Powers, Cole Moss, Hazel Keating, Garrett Ogletree (right?)
Notable Past Relationships: None, she's only recently started acting like people don't annoy her or there's more to life than Quidditch. Damn Grotto parties.
Current Relationship Status: Single (Her inner thoughts: ;___;)
The Messy Bits: She has a crush on her friend, yes. Would meddlers know this? No, because she feels like an idiot and would never tell herself let alone anyone else (except her squad maybe)
Anything Else: Nope!
A Cute GIF of Your Character:

Re: Susana Velasquez

[isolate.insanejournal.com]

Yes, right!

[guthriegazette]

Character Name: Asher Guthrie
House and Year: Senior Ribbonfin
Sexuality: Whatevs
Bestest Buds: Casper. Cricket. Ravi. His little bro Aiden.
Notable Past Relationships: He dated a bit his Freshman year but Sophomore year he started dating a Junior Ribbonfin named Seraphina who he was crazy into. They dated until this past summer when, after graduating, she dumped his assss. So now he's sad
Current Relationship Status: Single and totally not wanting to mingle but I don't care I'm putting him here anyways
The Messy Bits: Asher technically hasn't been super public about his break-up so it is maybe unclear if he is actually single or not. He just expertly avoids talking about it with people he's not close with, and even people he is close with he generally lalalas the conversation away. He got super crazy sappy with Avery thanks to Amortentia but now is just kind of weird at her because he feels guilty, sorry Avery
Anything Else: CRICKET HE DOESN'T WANT YOUR HELP but he loves you
A Cute GIF of Your Character:

Dancing Queen King

[chryseis]

Cricket loves you too, Asher!

He's lucky she is on a meddling hiatus. She's busy meddling for her own damn self.

[lfmkarapst.insanejournal.com]

Character Name: Trixie Armstrong
House and Year: Coppertale Senior
Sexuality: Straight but evil sexual.
Bestest Buds: Robin, Chris, Laurel, Tess, Dom, Chloe, Frankie, and others that I clearly would have written here but I've forgotten.
Notable Past Relationships: Nope, or at least no one has claimed that. I'm not sure she would even know if she was dating someone.
Current Relationship Status: I don't think so but she might as well be married to Robin.
The Messy Bits: Everyone knows she's with Robin except for Trixie and Robin.
Anything Else: She's more interested in minions than boyfriends. Really.

[bambae]

um, in currently relationship status we both forgot that she and chris are actually betrothed and that should be notable.
