goose_ooc | Pre-Opening Introductions

CHERYL HERE (you may know me from my cdj,

iliekrp). I bring you CHLOE SHEPHERD!

• Chloe is a junior in Ribbonfin (or she WILL BE in Ribbonfin - this is her first year here, so she hasn’t technically been sorted!)
• Chloe is a muggleborn and an introvert that tends to get increasingly awkward proportional to the length of a social situation/number of people involved.
• From her tween years, Chloe got really involved in the internet and in fandom. She is a fangirl and writes fanfiction and draws fanart. She is much more comfortable online (and, by extension, on the journals at Gooseberry) than in person. She is all of usssss.
• She was at Ilvermorny (pukwudgie!) up until this point!
• She wants to be ~unique~ but also she is a huge people pleaser and easily bends to stronger personalities.

IDK, INTROS ARE HARD. Read her bio here

HAY GIRL, I know where to find the secret wi-fi signal, wanna take a walk down by the docks on the full moon? ;)

YES

I will so third wheel this.

Hi Cheryl! I'm Heather and I have Tabitha Ogletree (Ribbonfin Senior) and Dominic Tremblay (Coppertale Junior). Tabitha is, of course, the same house but a different year - that said, she was also an Ilvermorny Pukwudgie, so I am guessing there will be a familiarity thing! She will therefore look after her.

Dominic was not a Pukwidgie, but he was in Wampus for several years until Gooseberry and they may have had several classes together. So again, familiar face?

Hi Heather!

Chloe would definitely be happy to have an older girl to look out for her, since she is adrift in this strange outdoorsy hell.

They could at least be familiar!

Excellent!

Heeey Cheryl, welcome to the game!!! I'm Marin, one of the mods, and I don't know you yet but I hope we get to interact lots in GB C:

Sylvester is in the same year, but he's a Coppertale jock and also a huge bully. His first impression of Chloe is that she's a NERD, but if Chloe doesn't try to fight him (which it sounds like she won't), then he may chill out a bit. A bit. Maybe best case scenario, Sy will hit on her in obnoxious ways. Sorry. 8|

Chloe might possibly recognize Ravinder. He was in Ilvermorny four years ago as a Horned Serpent, in the year above her. BUT now they're in the same house, and he's a prefect and will be sure to try to make her feel welcome. They're both Muggleborns, so Ravi gets how baffling that can all be, but he's a lot happier in weird no-Internet land than she is. AND if Chloe is joining LARP, he's going to be talking to her a lot, since he's a LARP veteran and does some of the organizing for campaigns.

And my last is Wilhemina, but I don't think there's much reason for Chloe and Mina to cross paths just yet. :|a

Hi Marin, nice to meet you!

Chloe is very bulliable. ._. She definitely wouldn't fight back physically, and she probably wouldn't fight back verbally too much either. But I am totally okay with him bullying her or hitting on her or both. XD

If she doesn't recognize him, then they at least have a point of contact! Muggleborns!! She has also never done LARP, she just wants to cling to her fellow nerds, so she will have lots of questions.

HI CHERYL we met for like five minutes in Renn before I sadly had to leave to tend to the monstrosity you see before you.

I have Diego Morales, a senior Azurcrest and musician, who proooobably won't run into her much. When he does, he'll be very friendly and a little flirty. Cheryl's likely to soon hear the gossip that Diego cheated on Tabitha last year with Anuhea, who are both in Chloe's house. He's a warm, friendly guy, but also... really self-centered and impulsive. He loves the internet, but loves it like a grandpa who just got on facebook loves it. He posts youtube videos of his music and annoys his stepsister, Mina, online.

Then I have Reid Wainwright, who she miiiight remember from Ilvermorny. He was in Thunderbird, and was on the Quodpot team, but he was really antisocial and quiet. He's still quiet, but he's a lot more social at Gooseberry. Reid will empathize with Chloe being awkward, since he is too, in a somewhat different way. He's inarticulate and inexpressive, but likes people more than it seems. He's also muggleborn, and spends a loooot of time alone, so he's probably as internet savvy as any teen.

Calvin is a year below Chloe in Ribbonfin, and he is still The Worst Ribbonfin. Although he's smart, articulate, potentially diplomatic and loyal... he's also whiny, mean-spirited, bossy, stubborn, and all around pretty unpleasant. He's a transfer student from Slytherin, and this is his second year here. He's not SUPER NICE to his fellow Ribbonfins, but he'll be worse to anyone who tries to take advantage of them.

HEY! That is so understandable, this game is a beast (in the best way)!

Chloe doesn't know how to react to flirting, but she'll be friendly in return! And she'll be pleased that he at least knows about the internet. XD

Awkward muggleborn solidarity! *fistbump*

Chloe would probably be pretty tolerant of his unpleasantness, especially because he is a fellow Ribbonfin, unless he was just really terrible. xD BUT since he's worse to people who are mean to them, she'll probably try to ~see the best in him~ despite it.

Cheryl and Anuhea are in the same house. Well they will be. So we can see how they get on?

Sure! I'm sure Chloe would at least get along with Anuhea.

She was in the same house and year as Holden at Ilvermorny, and will be this year as well! He probably likes talking to her about internet stuff because it makes more sense to him than a lot of this magical thing. He's also easily swayed by other personalities so don't count on him for that :p

And Sybilla (just call her Sylla) is a weird creepy girl who probably has questions about muggle things because she's spent most of her life living in her family's reclusive manor filled with cursed artifacts and things that can kill you. But she's super sweet and polite if you can get past the sheer weirdness aspect.

SORRY FOR JUST NOW RESPONDING! My email ate the notif.

I think she'd definitely get along with Holden, and be happy for a familiar/friendly face.

She'd probably also be friendly with Sylla - she identifies with the weird kids, even when they're a different kind of weird - and be happy to humor her questions about muggle stuff.

Hello dear sweet odd duckling roommate, let me take you under my wing~

Hi Cheryl! I'm Manx and I was just accepted with Chloe's roommate, Ursula.

These two are an odd pair, but I think they would get along well initially. They both share a hatred of the great outdoors and they're going to be in a few of the same clubs. Ursula is also a very strong personality who loves meeting new people and would probably actually read any fanfiction Chloe tossed her way, partially to humor her and partially as ~research~. Feel free to say that Ursula was the first Ribbonfin girl to greet her after her sorting!

Uhm, I'm sure there's more, but I wanted to make sure to say hi to Ursula's new roommie before I headed off to work. Hi hi!

Chloe will be taken under all the wings that are willing.

Ursula is a much stronger personality than Chloe, but I think they would still get along! She'd probably totally allow Ursula's more dominant tendencies, and mostly just be glad that she humors her weird hobbies. XD
