User Image[She‘s behind this] Lily Wong

[Nice to meet you] I’m Robert || Ian || McClellan

[I go by] Robert sometimes, but usually Bobby. [I wouldn‘t prefer] Bob, Robbie, or Mickey.

[My illusion] question extraordinaire, hidden agenda, honest but not trustworthy, sneaky, helpful [My reality] thieving, liar when it suits me, looking for ways to satisfy my wants and needs, inquiror

[They say I‘m] a boy [but sometimes] I secretly question it.

[I like being] an instant Slytherin.

[I was born] April 17. [That makes me] an Aries and [don‘t kid,] I’m 13.

[This is my] third year here.

[My parents] are Henry and Mirietta McClellan [and I am] a little bit of each.

[My wand] is 12 [inches long, and made of] willow [wood, with a core of] dragon heartstring; perfect for those charms and hexes I‘ve been working on.

User Image[When the dementors appear] I summon to my aid a King Snake

[My very own] feral cat [Ellen] helps me snoop in other peoples‘ business.

[At the Pitch] I don‘t really play much, but I sit in the reserve team, just in case. They‘re good, but accidents do happen.

[How do I look?] My hair is usually a dark brown, especially if I gelled it as I normally do. Sometimes it does turn blonde, which can be very irritable for me. My eyes are blue, but often the shade makes that hard to tell. I‘ve got a couple of small zits on my face, like the side of my left cheek and the space between that and my forehead. I‘m hitting adolescence, what do you want from me!? But my teeth are straight and my lips are too thin. My ears and forehead sometimes look a little big, but that‘s because of a difference in hairstyle.

The rest of me? Well now, there‘s something there. At age thirteen I stand five foot six, quite tall for my age. It‘s done me quite well during my time. My fingernails are trimmed or clipped, never bitten. I‘m a white kid with a very slight tan sometimes in the spring and fall, and I‘m slender in an athletic way, so not big on the huge muscles either, although I do have a six pack and some muscle on my legs and arms. Just not a whole lot.

And my favorite style: Jeans and pretty much anything else. Jeans with an under and over shirt, jeans with a button up shirt, jeans with a sweater, etc. etc. And I like my tennis shoes, too, so don‘t mess with them. They were kind of spendy.


User Image[Wouldn‘t you like to know?] Ever notice that in most cases of mixed blood, it’s the mom who has the magical qualities? Well I just busted that one. My dad was a pureblood wizard, thank you very much. When he and my mom got married (he was out trying to see the sights of the world through a muggle’s eyes and he met her on the way), she decided to go and live with him in the world of witches and wizards. I‘m not sure she ever told grandma or anything, because I never saw them.

My mom, I guess, always liked to travel places because she was gone a lot. I really mean A LOT. And she hated working, but I think she took her job because it allowed her to travel and see the world. She wrote articles in magazines and sometimes papers about this exotic place or that famous attraction, you know the kind. And she photographed the areas too. I must say, though, some of those places are pretty beautiful. I actually got to go on a couple of trips with her, to France, Germany, Russia, and Japan. That was when I was older though.

We lived in an apartment for awhile, because they weren‘t sure about me. If I didn‘t show any magical properties, they didn‘t want to keep me in the wizarding world. I‘m not sure if it was a shame problem or that they didn‘t want me to feel left out. I’m more inclined to say shame because my father has a tendency to get uptight. The jerk passed that bloody trait onto me.

Anyway, I used to go out and steal the neighbors’ things all the time, and it took a good few punishments before my powers showed up. I‘d find ways to appear out of my room, or make the stuff I was curious about appear to me, and my parents were so proud. They told me that if I was going to steal it, I might as well steal it in a way they can‘t prove. I‘m sure this started my thieving streak, or at least, made it much worse.

So then we moved out to this really big house in out in the country where my powers could grow and stuff, and instead of stealing things, I stole crops. Not a lot, and I‘d usually take them just before they withered, but I‘d steal them nonetheless. My parents couldn‘t really do much about it, so I kept the habit. Hey, it kept fresh food on the table and it wouldn‘t have lasted otherwise anyway.


User Image[This is how it goes down.] I like to act like I like you, but chances are that I don‘t. I put on a mask, like an actor on the stage as one very annoying Hufflepuff likes to put it. I‘ll be nice to you, I may seem helpful, but this is really all to help me with my own means in the end. Or you may find me to be extremely annoying because I question everything. I question everything because I like to know everything that I can, and almost always this knowledge pertains to something I‘m doing to you or to something I am trying to do myself.

I have a lot of energy. I don‘t sit there and jump around and shake, but my brain is always in high gear. Some people in Slytherin wonder why I‘m not a Ravenclaw, but this is simple: I‘m a ruthless liar, a sneak, and a thief. Really, only the Slytherins are good enough for such things. I like to take on a lot of tasks at once, and occasionally I don‘t finish everything I take on. This is one way for me to get my energies out.

Oh, by the way, I may seem to hit up on the ladies sometimes, and boost some of the males‘ egos. Odds are I‘m not really interested, though there have been a few cases. I never fully came out of my shell, because I knew that I‘d have no way in hell with that person. I LIKE TO MANIPULATE YOU, get it through your head. I run myself ragged doing so, but I almost never let you in on it. You are all just too foolish to notice.

When you're not around, I'm usually down in the common room or at the pitch practicing, which to my dismay, an older Ravenclaw girl by the name of Adela Heid is usually there. It can be really annoying, but at least she's quiet. If she were to be talking all the time, I'd probably hex her out of insanity. I'm actually very bored when I'm alone. I like the peace and the absence of YOU, but then I have no one to manipulate and it's so...dull. So if I can't motivate myself into doing something, I'll write letters to my family or do some self-evaluation.

And often when I'm alone, I have this nasty hobby of stealing your things, too. And nowadays, my cat Ellen, you know, that thing you said had rabies? Yeah, well, she helps me to do this to you. It‘s usually things I‘m curious about or on something I‘m inquiring, not just random stuff, so don‘t be too nervous. Then again, I never claim the cat to be mine when you‘re around, so it‘s not like you know. I always lie and says she belongs to another Slytherin. Not that you‘d see her anyway. I‘m rather conceited, if you couldn‘t tell yet, and yes, I actually AM BETTER THAN YOU.

Am I flawed or a coward? I can be, but this doesn't always mean you'll know. Many people see lying and thieving, etc. down the line as flaws. I see them as my values. No, I flaw when I actually become attached to you. That's why I want to hate you and, maybe in the end, make you hate me. I don't want those attachments--they're weaknesses. I don't always cover up my tracks as well as I should and have been caught a number of times, and I have slapped a girl before. Yes, I've SLAPPED one of you sissies before, so don't make me angry. As for my fear, I fear being found out, and I fear becoming attached. I fear the latter because that means someone has a means to control me with. And I HATE being controlled. And I'm not sure why, but really long fingernails freak me out.

Relationships? Please, just gag me with a spoon here and now. If I don't even like you, let alone don't want to get attached, why in hell do I want a relationship with you, you little sickly weasel? Okay, yeah, I've "dated" a girl once, but I dumped her the instant I got what I wanted. Really, there's no real point in obtaining a relationship with me unless you want nothing but a sore feeling afterwards. So back off, I'm not interested.

Why are YOU asking ME about MY grades? I mean, really, that's so incredibly rude. I don't go bugging around yours unless I'm asking you to help me with mine because I'm just oh-so busy. Yeah, that's right. Sometimes when I'm busy (or just because) I'll have someone else do my homework. And you want to know something funny? I go through and evaluate their work, then change it to make it sound like me. So at least I don't completely rip you off. I'm the guy who can be found in the classroom throwing paper planes at the other students or pulling a prank, but usually when people aren't paying attention. Otherwise I try to pull off the "good student" act. I do my homework usually, but it's generally B-grade work.


[I tolerate] my fellow Slytherins, even when they‘re annoying. I also spend a heck of a lot of time tolerating YOU. Yes, YOU. You are all SO annoying, really. But that‘s okay, you make good puppets. My cat Ellen is tolerated, and even liked to some degree, for all the work she does for me. I tolerate most of my classes and teachers, but end up merely putting up with some. I tolerate the food at this school because I could be eating worse. Okay, you caught me, it‘s not half bad. And Quidditch, since I‘m on a reserve.

[I can‘t stand] Care of Magical Creatures. Really, I know how to take care of everything I plan on ever taking care of, so what‘s the point of that class? I despise the idea of ever being forced to attend it, so I‘m going to stick far, far away. Ancient Runes is far too boring and Divination is for people who are crazy and are a bunch of losers with no real talent but being able to make stuff up as they go. I really can‘t stand extremely whiny people. You I won‘t even tolerate, no, I‘ll hex you sooner or later.

[Leftovers] I don‘t tend to get caught very often for bad behaviour. Usually my snooping is done through Ellen, and usually she just grabs something for me. I like to interrogate people and manipulate them on my own time, though a few hexes and charms have come out of my want. I reversed most of them though….

Slytherins
[Brady Allen IV] The little devil likes to jinx people when he thinks no one's looking. Teachers can hardly ever pin him! It's admirable, in a way. He's got quite the mouth for someone his age, and seems to not think much of himself. A real introvert. He's useful, sure enough, but you gotta feel bad for the kid because of Olivia. And I know I wasn't the only one staring at Johanna.
[Ramsey Castillo]
[Zaccheus Dane] We're in the same house and year. He is good at keeping his mouth shut, and he isn't annoyingly talkative. In fact, he's not very social at all. I find that I don't hate this one, in fact, I think I could like him as a friend. He seems to enjoy manipulating others as I do. Is it possible that I am being manipulated by my classmate?
[Lolita Doerity (Dotey)] She is the other girl that scares me. She is insane, and I mean clinically. She seems to "suffer" from Disassociate Identity Disorder, also known as Multiple Personality Disorder. I don't really know, I'm swinging in the dark here. It's very difficult to keep track of which mentality she is in, so I don't even try. I simply don't talk to her and stay out of her way whenever possible. Unfortunately, she is in my year. However, she could turn out to be very useful....
[Cordelia Jones (Corbi)
[Rain Larks]
[Amanda Lilliquist]
[Skylar Martin]
[Johanna Mattson] I would think many make the mistake of letting her beautiful blonde appearance fool them; I certainly would not be the type to want to make this brilliant and devious girl angry. She is one of the rare few I have not tried to manipulate out of fear and sheer respect for this girl. Unlike many Slytherins, she does not have a blatant hatred or power complex, but some hidden motive all her own. Sad thing is, I just knew her a day and came to this conclusion.
[Robert McClellan]
[Melanie Parks] I have to admit, she doesn't act like anyone else in our House. She'll sit there and squeal and clap and scream and jump for no reason other than she suddenly got excited over something. And she'll break down crying because she couldn't help someone with a problem. Really, how pathetic can you get? She's pretty, but she's way too...too...I don't even know! Just too!
[Aidan Reese] He's very dramatic, and a total pretty boy. I find it annoying how girls incessantly fawn over the dude. This, however, could (and has) worked to my plans. I tolerate him and his stuck-up attitude for his usefullness. Besides, I couldn't get away with doing anything to our Keeper.

But to you I am...



GRYFFINDOR



RAVENCLAW

Name: Adela Heid
Year: Sixth
House: Ravenclaw
Relationship:
☺, ☺ ☺ You look familiar and we talk. But ώ you're also irritating
What you think of Robert: "He can be quite rude somtimes, and I don't appreciate the way he's always getting into people's things and manipulating them. Some of his ploys, however, I have found some understanding in. Other than that, he's really not so bad."
History, if any: Other than catching him in his plans, more watching in the past, she really only seems him around school from time to time. Mostly she just seems him out in the pitch when she goes to practice and they'll talk Quidditch strategy or something. There's not much more to it at this point as neither are very talkative.
Plot ideas: During this year events may begin to happen and she just might take notice of Robert.


HUFFLEPUFF

Name: Julian "Mac" MacGregor
Year: Fourth
House: Hufflepuff
Relationship: ώ ώ ώ ώ I dream of hexing you and ώ You're irritating
What you think of Robert: Not Robert. You see, this kid stole some of my photos last year, edited them, and then posted them around the school! He's a thief and a jerk and he uses people way too much.
History, if any: Has been thieved.
Plot ideas: FIST FIGHT!!!!


SLYTHERIN

Name: Melanie Nicole Parks
Year: 4th year
House: Slytherin
Relationship:
☺ ☺ - We talk from time to time and ώ - You're irritating
What you think of Robert: "Yea I know Robert, he's a year below me and in Slytherin. He's cute, I have to hand him that, but I don't like him all that much. I mean, I've seen him taking advantage of people, and having things that I know don't belong to him! Of course, I didn't tell on him, but I dropped hints. Next time I see him doing something like that I'll have to do something about it. He seems to be nice, but most Slytherins are like that, they appear nice but aren't really that nice when it comes down to the truth. I guess I'm an exception. He seems to like quidditch a lot, but he's only on the reserve team. Maybe next year he'll make the team! He's a pretty good player, so he has a chance."
History, if any: Melanie has seen Robert up to no good, but she didn't really do much about it. She left hints but did nothing more. Since then she's tried to keep a close eye on him, but it's been hard since he's so secretive about it all. She's of course spoken to him since they're in the same house and both play quidditch. She's noticed that he's pretty good at quidditch and wonders why he didn't make the team.
Plot ideas: Ahaha, I like that idea and it definitely seems like something Melanie would do. The only other thing I can come up with is more annoyance from Robert because Melanie annoys him?


Name: Zaccheus Dane
Year: 3
House: Slytherin
Relationship: simple aquaintances
What you think of Robert: "He is ... entertaining. All of his pleasantries are obviously fake, yet he retains the ability to actually make such pleasantries pleasant. I'm not complaining though. That's what makes him entertaining. That, and I'm fairy sure he questions his sexual orientation. Ugh. I guess I have Castrus to thank for such annoying insight."
History, if any: They're dorm mates, so Zacch would actually recognize and speak to him if spoken to. Observing Castrus on a daily basis has given him the unique ability to tell when a person is faking, be it in conversation or in dating, and thus he's caught on to a few things. Not that he cares; it actually drives him crazy when he notices.
Plot ideas: From your character thread, it sounds like they would get along rather well. If he ever has any more schemes, I'm sure Zacch wouldn't mind at least hearing them out so that he could watch them unfold, even if he likely wouldn't participate very often.

Name: Brady Allen IV
Year: 2nd
House: Slytherin
Relationship: talk from time to time, suspicion
What you think of Robert: "Over the time I've known him, Robetrt doesn't seem so bad. In my book, he's got a better reputation than some mysteriously missorted Slytherins. But he'd better keep out of my business, or a bat-bogey hex will be coming his way."
History, if any: Same house, conversations. "lol, stupid muggles." You know. They're pretty cool, but Brady hates people snooping around, so he's been suspicious.
Plot ideas:If Robert proposes the idea of Olivia, Brady will laugh. he might help, since he's more interested in Johanna now, but he'll definitely ask "What's in it for me?" Tug-o-war over Johanna without her knowing would be hilarious.

The Family



User Image Name: Helena Bordeaux McClellan
Age: 36
House: Slytherin
Year of Graduation: 1973-1974
Birthday: November 19 [Scorpio]
Connections: Robert and Margaret's aunt, Mirietta's sister-in-law, Henry's sister
Model: Miranda Richardson, actress (Merlin)
A Taste of Personality: Nasty, clever, two-faced, shameless, sneaky, vengeful, fairly honest however. Talks to herself and twitches sometimes--is believed to be insane.
A Bit of Background: Helena at Hogwarts was an interesting thing. She dressed quite differently from everyone else and had a habit of seemingly talking to herself, and so she was often tormented. This threw her into a cycle to see who she could nab and curse and tried to make Hogwarts as much hell for everyone else as they made it for her. Not long after her graduation, she became a death eater. Want to know why Robert's so manipulative? Looking at Helena and you have the answer.


Dad


User Image Name: Mirietta Marie McClellan
Age: 40
Birthday: February 2nd [Aquarius]
Connections: Robert and Margaret's mother, Henry's wife, Rita's younger half-sister, Helena's sister-in-law
Model: Connie Nielsen, actress (Gladiator)
A Taste of Personality: Spontaneous, friendly, fickle, concerned, tolerant, indecisive, spacey in that she needs her space
A Bit of Background: Mirietta met Henry while traveling and spent much of Robert's life away. She works as a photographer/writer for various magazines on exotic locations, and it was her sister, Rita (who went to school with Henry) that eventually hooked the two up together. She often visits Rome when she takes Robert and Margaret with her, as she loves the clothes.


User Image Name: Rita Emilia das Dores (Dores)
Age: 43
House: Slytherin
Year of Graduation: 1964-1965
Birthday: September 14 [Virgo]
Connections: Robert and Margaret's aunt, Mirietta's half-sister, Henry's sister-in-law, Isabel Heid's cousin
Model: Angelica Houston, actress
A Taste of Personality: Fussy, picky with many things, overly clean, polite, sneaky, high-class minded
A Bit of Background: Rita and Henry, although in the same House, barely managed to get along together. They would have snits and little side arguments, but it was rarely out in the open. In the end, it was Rita who got Mirietta and Henry together.


User Image Name: Margaret Elise McClellan
Age: 5
House: --
Graduation: --
Birthday: April 30th [Taurus]
Connections: Robert's little sister, Mirietta and Henry's daughter, Rita and Helena's niece
Model: Mara Wilson, actress
A Taste of Personality: Stubborn, fitful, pretty angry for a five year old, manipulative, selfish, but easily guilted into something.
A Bit of Background: Maggie and Bobby are roughly eight years apart, so there's quite a bit of difference. Her brother didn't have a whole heap of time for her, though he'd play with her once in awhile. She's always been Bobby's sister and a Daddy's girl. She spent some time with both her aunts, but always favored Helena more than anyone but her big brother.

My Story Thus Far...


August Twenty-Fifth
User Image____ The 25th of August was both a good day and an awful one. It meant my time back in the halls of Hogwarts was once more growing near, and I enjoyed my time there. I was among magical shops--creatures, supplies, robes, food...it was such a sight! But at the same time, it meant I had to deal with all of them again. And can you guess who the very first person I saw had been? Aidan stinking Reese. I'm sorry, I just do not like the guy (although you'd never know that as I act quite the opposite most of the time). There were others that were walking through the doors of the Leaky Cauldron, so I followed them and ignored him and his group of girls.
User Image____ In an attempt to clear him from my mind, I walked down Diagon Alley with my hands in my pockets, just looking around. I noticed a few people---Adela Heid, Melanie Parks (she's a little troublesome), Alice may I strangle you Burkley, and an old friend, Zaccheus Dane. I didn't catch him, unfortunately, as he was heading one way and myself another. Besides, in the sort of crowds you find in this place, it's amazing to be able to follow anyone for very long. So to get things started I decided to head to the bookshop and pick up my books. I was able to locate them fine and somehow managed to squeeze through the crowds without too much trouble. I think headed to the joke shop and purchased some 'supplies' that I could use throughout the year. They would certainly come in handy later.
User Image____ And then... oh and then, I passed by Ollivander's, right? Because I was walking around to stretch my legs and to give myself a break from lines. And I saw this little blonde boy and his parents whom were obviously muggles. And I stopped to watch this kid for awhile, learning what I could for now about his personality type. He seemed like easy prey to me, so I decided to keep that in mind for later. I had other things to do. I went and checked out the owl emporium, not to buy anything but just to poke around and see what was there. I have one animal and that was hit: Ellen, my faithful and sneaky cat. She's all I need (and once I figure out how, I'm was going to do something to make sure he could extend her life span to a very unnatural age).
User Image____ I soon grew tired and left, paying no heed to the angry owner who didn't seem to like people very much. He was a crazy old coot I didn't care to accompany himself with. I ignored the Quidditch shop even though I'm trying out. The school had equipment so that I could use for practices and games should I make the team. I did keep in mind to pick up some parchment, quills, and ink, and more ingredients for potions class. I DID say that I had other things to do than to stand and stare at a first year muggle, did I not? I finished off my day at Florean Fortescue's Ice Cream Parlor and enjoyed myself a mint chocolate chip (most people find it disgusting). With sprinkles of course. Let us forget that Rosaline Windsor, Aidan, and Melanie were, too.

(( They say )) I'm a boy
(( But sometimes )) I secretly question it.
(( I was born )) April 17, 1977
(( Don't kid )) I'm 13
(( That makes me )) an Aries

(( This is my )) third year here
(( I like being )) an instant Slytherin
(( A wand you say? )) 12 inches long, made of willow wood with a core of dragon heartstring; perfect for those charms and hexes I've been working on.
(( My parents )) are Henry McClellan and Mirietta McClellan (Deciumus): and I am a little bit of each [Halfblood].
(( At the Pitch )) I don‘t really play much, but I sit in the reserve team, just in case. They‘re good, but accidents do happen. Just don't ask me to sub for the Keeper--that's Zacch's job.
(( My very own )) feral cat Ellen helps me snoop in other peoples' business
(( When the dementors appear )) I summon to my aid a king snake
(( Boggart in the trunk )) becoming attached to someone--meaning they'd have complete control over him.

(( My illusion )) question extraordinaire, hidden agenda, honest but not trustworthy, sneaky, helpful
(( My reality )) thieving, liar when it suits me, looking for ways to satisfy my wants and needs, inquiror

(( How do I look? )) My hair is usually a dark brown, especially if I gelled it as I normally do. Sometimes it does turn blonde, which can be very irritable for me. My eyes are blue, but often the shade makes that hard to tell. I‘ve got a couple of small zits on my face, like the side of my left cheek and the space between that and my forehead. I‘m hitting adolescence, what do you want from me!? But my teeth are straight and my lips are too thin. My ears and forehead sometimes look a little big, but that‘s because of a difference in hairstyle.

The rest of me? Well now, there‘s something there. At age thirteen I stand five foot six, quite tall for my age. It‘s done me quite well during my time. My fingernails are trimmed or clipped, never bitten. I‘m a white kid with a very slight tan sometimes in the spring and fall, and I‘m slender in an athletic way, so not big on the huge muscles either, although I do have a six pack and some muscle on my legs and arms. Just not a whole lot. You can't expect me to be the next Arnold Schwarzeneggar.

And my favorite style: Jeans and pretty much anything else. Jeans with an under and over shirt, jeans with a button up shirt, jeans with a sweater, etc. etc. Sweaters are ace since they can be just a plain, solid color which is what I often prefer. And I like my tennis shoes, too, so don‘t mess with them. They were kind of spendy.

(( Wouldn't you like to know? )) tver notice that in most cases of mixed blood, it’s the mom who has the magical qualities? Well I just busted that one. My dad was a pureblood wizard, thank you very much. When he and my mom got married (he was out trying to see the sights of the world through a muggle’s eyes and he met her on the way), she decided to go and live with him in the world of witches and wizards. I‘m not sure she ever told grandma or anything, because I never saw them.

My mom, I guess, always liked to travel places because she was gone a lot. I really mean A LOT. And she hated working, but I think she took her job because it allowed her to travel and see the world. She wrote articles in magazines and sometimes papers about this exotic place or that famous attraction, you know the kind. And she photographed the areas too. I must say, though, some of those places are pretty beautiful. I actually got to go on a couple of trips with her, to France, Germany, Russia, and Japan. That was when I was older though.

We lived in an apartment for awhile, because they weren‘t sure about me. If I didn‘t show any magical properties, they didn‘t want to keep me in the wizarding world. I‘m not sure if it was a shame problem or that they didn‘t want me to feel left out. I’m more inclined to say shame because my father has a tendency to get uptight. The jerk passed that bloody trait onto me.

Anyway, I used to go out and steal the neighbors’ things all the time, and it took a good few punishments before my powers showed up. I‘d find ways to appear out of my room, or make the stuff I was curious about appear to me, and my parents were so proud. They told me that if I was going to steal it, I might as well steal it in a way they can‘t prove. I‘m sure this started my thieving streak, or at least, made it much worse.

So then we moved out to this really big house in out in the country where my powers could grow and stuff, and instead of stealing things, I stole crops. Not a lot, and I‘d usually take them just before they withered, but I‘d steal them nonetheless. My parents couldn‘t really do much about it, so I kept the habit. Hey, it kept fresh food on the table and it wouldn‘t have lasted otherwise anyway, so why should they even care? After awhile, funny enough, they actually didn't. They send they'd just send us the food but I told them I had more fun sneaking it and they agreed to the terms. Sometimes they'd even chase me out of their property still to change things up.

And then I got my letter, big whoop, and my father said it was a good thing I did. Honestly he's not a bad father, I just don't care for half the things he says. It can be so demeaning, and how does he think that makes me feel? Mum was a bit more understanding, but she didn't want to let me go just the same. Roman women, oy. But I love her too. It was Margaret who threw the real fit though, wailing and crying and pleading for me not to leave. I felt so badly in all honesty, and still do. She's left at home (well, now school I guess) by herself all the time with no one to play with her. I hope she doesn't come to spite me, though I'd probably deserve it.

(( This is how it goes down )) I like to act like I like you, but chances are that I don‘t. I put on a mask, like an actor on the stage as one very annoying Hufflepuff likes to put it. I‘ll be nice to you, I may seem helpful, but this is really all to help me with my own means in the end. Or you may find me to be extremely annoying because I question everything. I question everything because I like to know everything that I can, and almost always this knowledge pertains to something I‘m doing to you or to something I am trying to do myself.

I have a lot of energy. I don‘t sit there and jump around and shake, but my brain is always in high gear. Some people in Slytherin wonder why I‘m not a Ravenclaw, but this is simple: I‘m a ruthless liar, a sneak, and a thief. Really, only the Slytherins are good enough for such things. I like to take on a lot of tasks at once, and occasionally I don‘t finish everything I take on. This is one way for me to get my energies out.

Oh, by the way, I may seem to hit up on the ladies sometimes, and boost some of the males‘ egos. Odds are I‘m not really interested, though there have been a few cases. I never fully came out of my shell, because I knew that I‘d have no way in hell with that person. I LIKE TO MANIPULATE YOU, get it through your head. I run myself ragged doing so, but I almost never let you in on it. You are all just too foolish to notice.

When you're not around, I'm usually down in the common room or at the pitch practicing, which to my dismay, an older Ravenclaw girl by the name of Adela Heid is usually there. It can be really annoying, but at least she's quiet. If she were to be talking all the time, I'd probably hex her out of insanity. I'm actually very bored when I'm alone. I like the peace and the absence of YOU, but then I have no one to manipulate and it's so...dull. So if I can't motivate myself into doing something, I'll write letters to my family or do some self-evaluation.

And often when I'm alone, I have this nasty hobby of stealing your things, too. And nowadays, my cat Ellen, you know, that thing you said had rabies? Yeah, well, she helps me to do this to you. It‘s usually things I‘m curious about or on something I‘m inquiring, not just random stuff, so don‘t be too nervous. Then again, I never claim the cat to be mine when you‘re around, so it‘s not like you know. I always lie and says she belongs to another Slytherin. Not that you‘d see her anyway. I‘m rather conceited, if you couldn‘t tell yet, and yes, I actually AM BETTER THAN YOU.

Am I flawed or a coward? I can be, but this doesn't always mean you'll know. Many people see lying and thieving, etc. down the line as flaws. I see them as my values. No, I flaw when I actually become attached to you. That's why I want to hate you and, maybe in the end, make you hate me. I don't want those attachments--they're weaknesses. I don't always cover up my tracks as well as I should and have been caught a number of times, and I have slapped a girl before. Yes, I've SLAPPED one of you sissies before, so don't make me angry. As for my fear, I fear being found out, and I fear becoming attached. I fear the latter because that means someone has a means to control me with. And I HATE being controlled. And I'm not sure why, but really long fingernails freak me out.

Relationships? Please, just gag me with a spoon here and now. If I don't even like you, let alone don't want to get attached, why in hell do I want a relationship with you, you little sickly weasel? Okay, yeah, I've "dated" a girl once, but I dumped her the instant I got what I wanted. Really, there's no real point in obtaining a relationship with me unless you want nothing but a sore feeling afterwards. So back off, I'm not interested.

Why are YOU asking ME about MY grades? I mean, really, that's so incredibly rude. I don't go bugging around yours unless I'm asking you to help me with mine because I'm just oh-so busy. Yeah, that's right. Sometimes when I'm busy (or just because) I'll have someone else do my homework. And you want to know something funny? I go through and evaluate their work, then change it to make it sound like me. So at least I don't completely rip you off. I'm the guy who can be found in the classroom throwing paper planes at the other students or pulling a prank, but usually when people aren't paying attention. Otherwise I try to pull off the "good student" act. I do my homework usually, but it's generally B-grade work.

(( I tolerate )) my fellow Slytherins, even when they‘re annoying. I also spend a heck of a lot of time tolerating YOU. Yes, YOU. You are all SO annoying, really. But that‘s okay, you make good puppets. My cat Ellen is tolerated, and even liked to some degree, for all the work she does for me. I tolerate most of my classes and teachers, but end up merely putting up with some. I tolerate the food at this school because I could be eating worse. Okay, you caught me, it‘s not half bad. And Quidditch, since I‘m on a reserve
(( I can't stand )) Care of Magical Creatures. Really, I know how to take care of everything I plan on ever taking care of, so what‘s the point of that class? I despise the idea of ever being forced to attend it, so I‘m going to stick far, far away. Ancient Runes is far too boring and Divination is for people who are crazy and are a bunch of losers with no real talent but being able to make stuff up as they go. I really can‘t stand extremely whiny people. You I won‘t even tolerate, no, I‘ll hex you sooner or later

(( Leftovers )) I don‘t tend to get caught very often for bad behaviour. Usually my snooping is done through Ellen, and usually she just grabs something for me. I like to interrogate people and manipulate them on my own time, though a few hexes and charms have come out of my want. I reversed most of them though….
