Greetings and Salutations!
Hey there, hi there! I'm Laurie and am bringing you Astoria Greengrass. I am seriously horrible at these intro posts so let's see what I end up saying here, shall we? Little bit about me, I'm a SAHM of a kindergardener and a preschooler. So between the hours of 9 AM and 1:30 PM I am usually floating around the house and have the 'puter on so ping me if you want to talk or plot or anything. I'm on AIM @ ragebrokenhearte.

Astoria's still reeling about being out of school and having nothing to really do with her life. She's been raised to be a socialite and a trophy wife. Yanno, the average bubble-headed rich girl, even if there is a brain hidden under all those blonde curls. A woman should never be smarter than her husband after all. Yes, go ahead and roll your eyes... I do it every time. LOL. So, don't be surprised if your characters run into her while she's in shopping mode. She does a lot of that. Is interested in charities, simply because its what the socialites do. And yadda yadda yadda. Meh. Anyway you can find her bio over here

So... plottage? chatting? anything?

Laurie! HI! Okay, we've already talked on AIM but here is your official plottage from me!

She really makes Fleur roll her eyes, especially if she starts with the not being smarter than her husband stuff, but they should run into each other shopping! They probably won't be besties but I can't see them flat out hating each other either. I see some snarkiness.

Ginny/

petite_weasley knows her from school I am sure and has probably poked fun at her a bit. She'll be civil at least unless she starts going on about her being a blood-traitor and blah blah blah. I can see fights here too.

Alexander/

agamemaker wants to pet her. He surely knows her family and her. He wouldn't mind having her clean his house. Wow, he did just say that lol. He isn't sure her spot isn't in the DEs but he'll ask her favors from time to time. As long as she can be trusted.

More of course too if I do pick up Daphne too^^ <3

Hi there ^_^

Trust me, Fleur can roll her eyes at her, but its not like she preaches the whole.. the man is smarter bit. Its more a secret understanding. Ofcourse, she might roll her eyes at a woman who does preach being a man's equal in a relationship. Again.. its the way she was raised. She makes me weep for womankind lol. But! I agree! They should run into each other shopping. Ofcourse.. Astoria says that there's no way a woman married into the Weasle clan has money to shop the same stores she does. >.<

Oh trust me as far as Ginny goes (because Astoria really hates her for the simple reason that she just seems to thrust herself into fame seeking situations ((getting to ride the curtails of the Golden Trio)), dresses like a man ((pants)), rides a broom ((its not ladylike!)), and then the usual blood traitor and poorer than poor ((at least in her eyes)).) Sorry... she just really hates Ginny. I can see amusing snark and would be cat fights in their future... if Astoria fought -- again, not ladylike.

Alexander, as a DE he garners her respect. As a naive little girl, I'm sure she'd offer any help she could, where ever she could. But, she won't clean a home... doesn't do windows. She can cook though! She makes a mean roast and melt-in-your-mouth scones. =P

Can't wait to see if you do pick up Daphne.

My muse is giving you a look and you don't even know it^^ But it's true we can't escape the way we were raised, most people anyway. As for that shopping thing they should! Fleur would also like to point out that Bill and her have very good jobs and they do well for each other and she comes from a wealthy family so she can shop there if she likes. If she's feeling extra prissy that day she'll agree with her and point out she can shop in better stores or have things brought in from Paris.

Verbal warfare it is then! Ginny says she's up to the task and would really like to tell her she needs to loosen up and try a few new things that she might be surprised what she enjoys. She has no shame either in riding a broom and playing pro quidditch. Ginny could take her in a fight ^.~

He was joking about the house cleaning unless she really would then he's totally for it... He will however take the meals. We will find ways to toss them together.

Oh, you should count on it. That muse has been bouncing around in my head for over a week. I just can't find any icons for the pb I have my mind set on. I will have to find a new face.

Astoria tells Fleur that she can get things shipped from France as well. And has even gone on Holiday there a few times and fell in love with a little shop that makes nothing but macarons. And in so many different flavors! OMG She loves her sweets! Anyway, the point is, she can do that too LOL. And now she's pouting in my head... Every been the victim of a mental foot stomp by a muse?

Verbal warfare it shall be! Astoria says that Ginny needs to stop being confused about her sex and should be a proper girl for once. But then maybe Potter likes the more.. boyish girls for a reason? O_o He did have a thing for Cho after all. And I'll stop the comments there before she goes into how both girls had a stick between their legs that were pretty phallic in nature and maybe he just wants a ride... Anyway... moving on!

Astoria wants to tell Alex that housework is for the Elves. However, should he like a very delicious home cooked meal, she can oblige. After all, it does get boring just shopping all day, it'd be a nice distraction! We will have to get these muses together at some point LOL. Soon!

Who was your face? I'll scout around as well.

No but there is a first time for everything! Fleur says they can go on this try to one-up game for a while but she will win. She wins at everything or at least sure the hell tries. I am not sure who is more stubborn her or Ginny.

Yes, that's probably for the best b/c we don't want to get Ginny started already b/c she can match the the boy jokes about maybe there's a reason she's so into girls and girl stuff... It's going to be a verbal bloodbath.

Yes! He says it must be nice to have nothing to do but shop all day. It will be fun and he'll be civil because he has to be to other Purebloods. Well ones that aren't named Weasley. Don't get him started on that b/c he has a thing for torturing Weasleys and he says he'll get his day soon enough.

I was thinking Indiana Evans but her newer stuff. What I have found of her is a lot of younger looking things and I can't find caps to icon her myself. I didn't even know who she was until I got watching some stupid Lifetime movie over the weekend when I was bored but she's pretty and I like something about her.

Thanks love. I'll have to snag a few of those. I love Maxi, don't get me wrong she's a sweetheart, but I am not always a fan of her quality. A little too much contrast for me but some of them are beautiful.

The more I look at her face the more she looks like Ashley Benson to me too. Still there's just something that speaks to me about Indiana. Though the pb works b/c Daphne is only 20 going on 21. For some reason I thought she was older. Fail to my brain.

Hi, Laurie. Glad to have you here. I'm Mel and I have three babies.

Firstly, the absolutely psychotic, Bellatrix Lestrange. She's a pureblood fantatic and probably knows, or at least knows of, the Greengrass'. Obviously, being that Astoria is a good little PUreblood, she has nothing to fear from Bella.

Adrian Pucey was a Slytherin, now he's a chaser for the Falmouth Falcons. He drinks and seduces women in his spare time. Although he's totally hot for Gwen Montgomery, he's probably tried it on with Astoria more than once, and he likely will again, so any backstory you want there is good with me.

Lastly, is Tonks, who probably won't have much to do with Astoria even if she does end up as her cousin's wife. :P

Feel free to email me at hellkat775@gmail.com or hit me up on AIM, if you have it (h3llk4t75)

Hi there Mel.

Being a good little Pureblood, Astoria has respect for Bella... however the crazy that is Bella scares the hell out of her.

Adrian Adrian Adrian... Astoria's only got eyes for a certain blonde haired boy who really doesn't know who she is. *sigh* the curse of silly schoolgirl crushes!*sigh* Doesn't mean she won't play along and flirt back. As long as its all in good fun.

Astoria crinkles her nose at Tonks and really really wants to ask if Lupin's given her fleas! But.. that wouldn't be polite so she won't say anything and just avoid Tonks. lol.

Yep I'm on AIM @ ragebrokenhearte

	He's pretty hung up on Gwen, so if he did flirt with her, it'd be for fun, or to make Gwen jealous. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Hiya :)

Welcome to the game. I'm Bee and I have:

Gwendolyn Montgomery - Slytherin, a year older than Astoria, so they would have had a fair bit of interaction whilst at school. She's also a girly-girl, friendly among her house and very chatty. She's best friends with Pansy and probably close to Daphne. Gwen's an actress, but she totally gets the being a trophy wife thing.

Theodore Nott - DE, former Slytherin, a couple of years older than Astoria. Theo's a hit wizard and recently engaged to Pansy He'll know her from pureblooded events and likely cause he knows her sister. He'll be nice, probably flirted with her a bit.

Mandy Brocklehurst - Two years older, former Ravenclaw and a healer-in-training, so I can't imagine they'd have known each other all that well in the past. She's friendly, but is shaking her head at Astoria's lack of career aspirations

Megan Jones - Hufflepuff, muggleborn and two years older. I don't imagine that they know each other at all. She'd be very nice, because she's nice and bubbly and all that, but Astoria may not want to talk to her.

Anyway, welcome again, looking forward to playing with you, and if you'd like to work out any details, I can be found on AIM at Mandy Nott Lilly or bee@mistijuel.org

Yay! Someone who gets the Trophy Wife thing LOL. =) From one girly-girl and chatty Slyhterin to another, Astoria is giddy!

As far as Theodore goes, she says that she's friendly to him as well and doesn't mind being flirted with in the past =P.

Like you I doubt that Mandy and Astoria would have known each other, but who knows what'll happen in the future. Astoria's friendly to those who a)she respects and b) are nice to her as well.

Megan, being a muggleborn is on the crap list with Astoria. Sorry! >.< But again, you never know what the future holds.

Hi there Laurie. I'm El or St Jimmy if you read my applications :) I only have one at the minute. Kirley Thruston-Duke. Though the world still knows him just as Kirley Duke. Lead guitar for Weird Sisters. I'm going to re-intro him at some point because he evolved a bit since the game reboot. But anyway, hello and welcome! I'm lincolnsxecho on aim if you want to chat or plot :)

Oh... if you fancied another pet at some point, 5 Sisters are free. Just saying.

Hey Laurie. I'm Jess... or Batman... or whatever... (I tend to answer to a number of things, including "Hey you!"). You can find me on AIM at diputstonmi, feel free to poke at any time. If I am around, I'll reply.

I've also only got one at the moment, Orsino Thruston-Duke - although publicly he still goes by Orsino Thruston. He is the drummer for the Weird Sisters, a former Hufflepuff and a Muggleborn. His app can be found here although it still needs a little tweaking to update him for the reboot.

Also, I wholehearted support the adoption of a Weird Sister.
