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.

Name:
Age:
Occupation: What's their job?

Now as an adult: What are they up to? How did they get here?
Are they happy?: The answer had better be yes.

Cricket is a New York State Senator after running an extremely progressive campaign that upset her parents. She is engaged to Maggie. Probably employs JD. Don’t @ me

Jesse turned his magicless apparation tech into booths that can apparate wizard drunks without fear of splinching. They are a fixture outside wizarding bars. He’s insanely fucking wealthy but donates almost all his money to bizarre grants. Also, he knocked up Ivy 😎

Lilika is a messy messy girl. She doesn’t have a box spring. That’s all I got, so far

hey..... is lilika single. i'm putting together a list of potential matchmaking candidates for Reasons

All I can say at this point is that she isn’t married, didn’t bring a date, and would rather die then let anyone at gooseberry know about her personal life

So, functionally (and for ... Reasons), yes!

lilika deserves so much better than this????

but ok cool we'll keep that in mind B)

Aren’t 90% of us in our late 20s and not married?!?

JD is out here trying to forget about her cute red headed ex and she's gotta see cricket and Maggie be in love all the time instead

Hires Ophelia onto her security team

Seats up a meetcute

Cricket is the MVP of this game

She just wants everyone to be happy 😢

Besides Wesley.

oh my god. maggie's gonna butt the fuck in to try to help because she CANNOT mind her own business

heres the full

So excited for Maggie & Cricket to do what they do best — meddle

Lesbian edition!!

your party switch is the worst thing to ever happen to this family cricket

Followed closely by the time Ulysses almost died THREE TIMES

that’s a distant second

Also I'm naming their kid some ridic plant name like Chrysanthemum or Amaryllis unless you stop me

i honestly love chrysanthemum as a name and have been waiting to use it on a character for years

eta: voice to text feature not going well for me sorry lol

Edited (as a name for a fake child and not a real one obviously ) 2018-07-10 22:22 (UTC)

Chrysanthemum, goes by Chrys

i'm a big Amaryllis fan but it's no surprise that i'm into ridic plant names

Everyone vote on McBride baby's name

His one suggestion is Newt because he just watched Alien

I’m absolutely not stopping you. Jesse is so in love with Ivy. He’s let her name their kid Ivy Jr

laurel earnestly supports ALL of ivy's ideas because she will be obsessed w this baby no matter what frankly

theyre gonna be engaged for like 10 more years because maggie is bridezilla and all the details have to be PERFECT

also i was thinking about having noel stroll into the reunion with his massive, beautiful part-giant wife because he's ALWAYS gotta MAKE A SCENE

Cricket would die before ever letting Maggie have a less than PERFECT wedding, so yeah, they’ll probably never make it to the alter. But at least they can kiss now

Lilika should bring Webster’s cousin, Tony, who is canonically a brick house. I love that they both have a giant fetish.

TONY

maggie is petty enough to be PISSED that OTHER COUPLES are ALSO GETTING ENGAGED AND PLANNING A WEDDING, AND OF COURSE THEY CAN'T PLAN THEIR WEDDING TOO CLOSE TO THEIRS OR IT ISN'T AS SPECIAL!!!! she's totally gonna show off their BIG FANCY RINGS though. they're probably matching or at least coordinated?
