Newbie Alert!

Hi lovely folk of GB. I'm Lena and I bring you the snarktastic Jeremy Rasmussen PBed by this adorable dork below.

Things you might wanna know about Jeremy: ♪ Reformed bad boy - his worst was during his freshie/soph years, stopped being a general shit sometime in Junior year ♪ Hails from Boston - came from the local wizarding school there then transferred out dramatically and went to Magicrest to complete his education before coming to GB ♪ Above two points due to the fact that his mom has just passed away when he was 12 (details of which can be seen in his bio). ♪ Now he has a new obsession over his future career since he's aspiring to be a healer and putting in all the right steps to achieving that ♪ Can often be seen in the library working on his senior project (which is an actual research paper, the hopeless workaholic) with earphones plugged in and tuning out the world ♪ Thinks Quidditch is the quickest road to a violent, meaningless death

Wishlist (lines I am hoping to fill): ♪ Close friends - these people stuck with him even when he was being the shittiest human being possible, they'd probably know the circumstances of his mom's death and supported him through his years at GB. If someone is so inclined and picks up a Dominic Sherwood as his BFF, I may be your eternal slave. :D ♪ Cousin - I left his mom's maiden name open, so if anyone wants to claim a dead aunt for their character for the ~drama, pls do so ♪ Drinking buddies - they don't necessarily have to know any more about him apart from his taste in beer and girls. He doesn't drink to get trashed. So he's usually still capable of decent conversations during these ventures. Y'know, just boys being boys. ♪ The past come to bite him in the ass - so he was a shithead in Years 1&2 in GB, he's probably pissed off a lot of people during that time. I want people to deliberately be antagonistic towards him because of that. He's not going to respond in kind because he's trying on that whole reformed bad boy thing. But I love pushing limits. ;) We can also discuss the specifics of exactly what atrocities he has done. ♪ Homewrecker - somewhat related to above point, as part of his whole 'shitty human being' stunt, he may or may not have encouraged certain individuals to cheat on their significant others. He may have known your character was dating someone but relentlessly flirted with her regardless. He may have had flings with your character and then broken their heart when he told them he didn't think they had a future together. ALL SORTS of shitty things. ♪ Healing shizz - so he is pretty set on being a Healer now, and I don't think it's a huge secret. He tells everyone his senior project is about the Healing properties of Tantric Sex with a straight face (it's really really not), because maybe he hasn't moved on entirely from being a shithead. He has self-taught himself a couple of elementary healing spells and can brew most of the basic healing potions and salves too. So if you are particularly inclined to getting injured for some reason *cough*quidditch*cough*, he can easily be blackmailed into fixing you up. He will grumble though. God will he grumble.

Game looks beyond amazing, so I'm psyched to get started! :) If you have an idea not listed (which I'm sure will be more brilliant than anything I've come up with so far), please lemme know as well. Very open to plot.

Lena

PS: I hate to ask, but anyone knows how to change the subtitles/header font in the reading page of your DW journal without changing everything else?

Hi!! I'm Rin ♥ hearts; ♥! Welcome~ I have.. four children!

Major dude is Asher (guthriegazette) who is Jeremy's roomie! He also had a bit of a rocky time but his was mostly resolved by the time he hit Gooseberry. And also went to Magicrest! He's still moderately understanding of that sort of attitude, though (his bff is Casper who is pretty prickly), but he doesn't have much patience for bullying so if it passed into that realm he would have been not happy. ANYWAYS, feel free to e-mail me or we can chat more here to discuss the situation given that they probably have mondo history unless they were like.. avoiding each other/ignore each other in their cabin lol. Whatever ♥

I also have.. a bunch of irrelevant people for you! Only vague relevance is that she's semi-healery (her mother is a nurse and she's pretty decent at healing magic)

Jaime (lupofiasco) who is an Azurcrest junior and has probably 0 overlap. He's really shitty at being responsible but is sort of trying and is really uncomfortable with the fact that he's bi so he's weird about boys sometimes. He's kinda dumb so technically is not that hard to give shit, but also he's relatively immune to too mean of stuff because he doesn't take stuff very hard most of the time. They're in Duelling together.

This journal, Hazel, who is a sophomore Coppertale special child who yells a lot about sports.

Garrett (garogletree) who is also a sophomore Coppertale because I suck. He's a prefect and a twin and has 0 things in common with Jeremy other than he's in fencing which is like the same thing with duelling sorta.

Hi Rin!

Asher - I honestly think Asher would probably be the person that knows most about Jeremy whether he likes it or not. After all they went to the same school together before GB. Jeremy was a rebel without a cause at the time, it wouldn't have crossed into bullying, but he was just pointlessly mean and rude to everyone about all the time. Which honestly isn't that much better. His roomies would probably have witnessed the change in the last year.

Jaime - Jeremy probably was mean to him before. Once or twice. :( But it's good if Jaime could have gotten past that.

Hazel - is ickle. Jeremy probably hadn't gotten to her yet with his meanness lol. It's a good thing.

Garrett - You're right, Jeremy wouldn't know him well. But there's always random interaction ftw!

Asher is pretty good at taking meanness in stride if directed at him as he generally ignores it, but yeah, he'd try to discourage it towards others (obviously). He likes to think that he's good at diffusing situations but I think most of the time he just guns for distraction as a tool for toning things down. Given their history he probably has a lot of knowledge about Jer and how he's been evolving over the years. He'll encourage him to not be such a meanie, but also will understand that it's not an overnight transformation so there will be patience on his end if they're on bro terms. Asher was kind of defensive when he showed up at Magicrest but mellowed out after kind of realizing he didn't have to be on guard there so much - not sure how Jeremy would have played with that?

Jaime honestly probably either was like: lmao ok yeah whatever?? Or was like: oh that wasn't very nice you're not the best ok dude.

Hazel will just call him a butt if he's rude to her so it's fine.

Jeremy was in a bad place when he first went to Magicrest. He had intensive counselling sessions and was acting out because of all the anger and grief that hasn't been properly dealt with. I think at that particular point in time he may also have had panic attacks. OH. Had a thought. How do you feel if Jeremy and Asher were getting into a physical brawl at Magicrest when Jeremy has a panic attack? That would maybe help Asher realise he doesn't have to be on guard around Jeremy so much? Maybe?
