MEME: WHERE ARE THEY NOW?



MEME: WHERE ARE THEY NOW?

HOW THIS WORKS

  • In preparation for the 10 Year Reunion next weekend, this meme is for you guys to plot out exactly what happened over the past decade.

  • Post your responses to the first header, but plot under the second so people can edit their responses!

  • Be considerate and mildly realistic while plotting! Obviously, we all want our babies to be successful, but the MACUSA president isn't going to be a 25 year old, and your junior Auror did not kill a dozen Dark Wizards singlehandedly to rescue Snoop Crupp.

  • What happened after Gooseberry closed?:
    • Gooseberry Alternative High School was officially shut down, and remained abandoned for two years.

    • It was then reopened as the Merrill Memorial Research Institute, which is a facility dedicated to studying the surrounding area and funding unique projects for the betterment of the magical world. It attracts many brilliant minds, and Mrs. Bloom is constantly flooded by applicants seeking funding and research space.

    • Yes, you may say one of your nerds is employed there now.

    • There's housing available inside the lodge where classrooms have been converted to labs and office spaces, but nature has reclaimed the campsites. However, plenty of employees Apparate into work instead, because not everyone wants to live in the middle of the woods.

    • Despite all these years of studying the unusual forest, no one is certain what makes it so strange. There are rare sightings of a white moose, but no one can confirm its existence, much less whether or not it's the same moose as before.

    • The school is definitely still littered with ghosts, though, and there's a dedicated ghost research wing.

    • Ms. Lilywhite and Ms. Vector reside there as research staff. They are rumored to be a couple, but are both very private women, so don't try asking them about it.

    • Mr. Elmasry and Dr. Perry are engaged and currently reside in Washington, D.C.

Hey Austin, Ophelia needs a date to the reunion, she can't show up ALONE. Really she's doing you a favor by being seen with you.

She's going to lie and say yeah she thinks Todd's going to bring this super cute barista near the office. He's got tattoos and he's very cool and Todd visits him every morning.

YOU'RE WELCOME TODD.

Name: Griffin Flowers
Age: 26
Occupation: Lottery Winner, Billionaire Investor
Residence: Philadelphia, PA
Personal life: He has email notifs whenever Linus tweets or posts a status to fb. Linus does not know this.
After Gooseberry closed: Griffin did one year at his old school, but it drove him crazy so he managed to talk his aunt and uncle into letting him go to Ilvermorny his senior year.
After graduation: Griffin left the squonk farm after graduation and drifted for a while, just experiencing non-isolated life. Then he dropped a bunch of Scrabble tiles on the floor of his studio apartment and saw some patterns in the numbers and went out and bought a lottery ticket and won several hundred million dollars. Newly wealthy, he used his garbage-o-mancy to further grow his wealth by investing in the stock market.
Now as an adult: Griffin predominantly plays the angel investor game with a focus on tech start ups and relies on his garbage-o-mancy to help him pick stocks to invest in. He's still lazy as fuck.
Are they happy?: I mean it's alright I guess.
Plot Here: LINK
Anything else?: I literally just thought to myself "what is the dumbest thing I could possibly give to Griffy"

Liberty

[personal profile] ghostbluster 2018-07-11 06:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Name: Liberty Chan
Age: 27
Occupation: Research Scientist, specializes in like Weird Spooky Shit. I can’t think of a way to make that sound fancy and important, but I’m open to suggestions. Basically, she studies weird ghost apparitions, cryptids, odd magical phenomena. If people think it might not be real, she wants to study it. She’s also a Forever Student because she’s never actually going to stop taking classes and accumulating degrees.
Residence: Not sure? Wherever Junior Jay Cul De Sac is? Somewhere within wizarding commuting distance of Utah? She lives with Zach, though.
Personal life: She cohabitates with Zach and they coparent a weird menagerie of pets. That doesn’t?? Make them a couple?? They are just providing a stable family for these lizards?? Why do people keep asking them if they’re going to get married?????
After Gooseberry closed: Liberty AGONIZED about where she was going to go to school for her senior year for most of the summer. She made charts and pie graphs. She researched. She debated. She thought long and hard about what her choices would mean for her academic future. Aaaand she still went to Ilvermorny. She was sorted into Horned Serpent.
After graduation: After school she just went back for more school. She took a lot of classes in a lot of things before deciding what her focus was going to be and then got Super Into It. She really aspired to work at the Institute and discover/explain all of Gooseberry’s weirdness! She also played quidditch in college.
Now as an adult: Just wallows around in academia. She focuses mostly on research, but does teach some too, mostly to have money to live. She is also going to pursue a PhD or wizard equivalent. She’ll go to her grave still with student loan debt because she just won’t stop taking classes. She is still very anti Statute of Secrecy, but not to the degree that her biological parents were, because she eventually decided that maybe there’s no real virtue in spending so much time in jail. She’s very into pursuing science where magical and muggle knowledge and techniques meet, and has pioneered some studies with in-the-know nonmagical scientists. She is also a big proponent of rights for nonhuman beings.
Are they happy?: When you really break it down, how does one define happiness objectively? (Yes).

Anything else?:
A cute gif: Not a gif but she looks older here and I’m too lazy to pick a grown up pb
