HI HELLO

[cosmonot]

HI HELLO. An angel descended from the heavens and bid me, "Hey, Jenny. Do not makest thou a 5th character. Also maybe you shouldn't write intro posts after drinking." and my dudes I totally 100% fuckin' ignored it. SO HI MEET GRIFFIN FLOWERS!!

Clubs: Azurbest Quidditch Keeper!!, Equestrian, OE, Gaming

Griffin is from a tiny magic-y village in Lancaster County, PA. That's Amish country. That is pretty much the extent of his exposure to muggle shit.

His family has been farming squonks for GENERATIONS. They have a lot of trouble keeping the farm family owned and operated because Squonk Farming sucks. So they rely pretty heavily on GUILT to keep the chain of inheritance alive.

Griffin's dad is a SECRET AGENT for the MACUSA. Basically like the wizard equivalent of a green beret/navy SEAL? And he's stationed in Korea and everyone thinks he's just a dead beat dad, so Griffin doesn't talk about him much because most people assume he's lying.

Griffin is a mathboy because I keep doing this to myself?? He likes physics and geometry especially and is into the concept of Sacred Geometry.

He's in DIVINATION but it's because he likes that they occasionally go over stars. He's respectful when he's in class but he doesn't necessarily believe in it. He doesn't have a "specialization" yet but I kind of want to do something absurd wit the Spin the Bottle bottle.

His DREAM is to become an astronaut. Griffin's dad bought him a telescope when he was younger, and he's obsessed with space. He's not so much a WOO ALIENS kid, although that's certainly there, too. He's more into the SCIENCE of it.

He's a sweet boy, but he's emotionally immature and SUPER naive and sheltered and copes by being a Typical Azurcrest and just making exponentially worse decisions as time goes on. Jesse McBride was PROBABLY his idol.

I basically wanted to make a character that embodies Yikes and here I am.

He's AMAZINGLY lazy and will put more work into "being lazy" than he would if he actually did something right the first time. He doesn't seem to realize he's doing this.

oh my god my eyes went straight to "dad is a secret agent" and i somehow missed FAMILY SQUONK FARMING???? i'm so

anyway hello hello hello i love him thank you for this Gift

i don't think marie Gets him, but she probably likes him and she definitely thinks he's cute. :* they're in div together!!! gosh this sophomore class can really See the Universe. zach is a prefect in griffin's house, albeit a year up, and if he is a micah duckling, then he probably sees zach around! he will do his best to make sure this sweet baby boy doesn't puke on himself at the grotto.

idt he'd see cash that much andddd OH ulysses is a fellow quidditch player so they might have a passing familiarity? honestly ulysses probably doesn't know any of the quidditch sophomores yet but as ebonhide & azurcrest's first game approaches, he'll probably keep his eyes peeled for Rival Talent, lmfao.
