feinted

At breakfast this morning, Hugo came dressed particularly snappy and sang When I Get You Alone. Only...it wasn't to Sonali, it was to Kingsley. He even had a rose for Kingsley.

However, I believe at some point Lala would have attacked him (Lis - would she wait until NOT in the Great Hall?) and someone would need to break that up.

Sonali, we give you so many apologies >.>

So, reactions can go here or in journals etc!



Also, as an OOC note, I have extremely limited internet access at home right now. But I will reply/tag stuff as I can from work too.

So, I'm hopping on the trend of intros, and bring you my 6th (yeah yeah), 5th year Slytherin Miss Sonali Arianna Thomas! Where to start...the first thing to know is that she's the first Slytherin in her family (as far as she knows) and she's not a bit sad about it. She loves her House, and she's ambitious enough to live up to it. She's the daughter of Parvati Patil and Dean Thomas, who are loving but totally hands off. Sonali calls them by their first name, and because of how busy her parents were doing what they loved in terms of their career (Parvati is now executive chef and co-owner of the first magical molecular gastronomical restaurant in Diagon, Dean is a gallery owner and still does a lot of his own art)she and her older brother spent a lot of time in their own devices. They moved all over Europe growing up, until she moved to England for the first time when she was 8 (they visited her muggle relations and some of her parents friends every year, but they had not LIVED in England for quite a long while, several years before she was born, actually). Because of this, she learned quickly how to read people and find friends who would be advantageous to her-even as she's gained roots, she still approaches friendship in this manner quite a lot. It has also meant that she is quite fluent in French (both her parents speak it fluently and taught her and her brother since they were babies-they've lived in France the most), English (obviously), and Hindi/Urdu (her mother lived in Delhi until she was 5, and they visit every year. Her grandparents returned there after the war). She has a smattering of other western European languages which she will happily bucther for anyone willing to listen.

She is also a smooth talker, and really can talk people into doing pretty much anything without them really even realizing it. She's also always trying to make a sickle (Tori, you and Sonali are bosom buddies), and she's pretty good at selling things (she does a trade in charmed jewelery for the holidays, and she takes commissions!) She's also quite good with numbers and loves Arithmancy, which lead her to her most notorious business enterprise-she runs bets on the Quidditch matches. So, while she isn't a BAD kid, she definitely toes the line of acceptable. And she's certainly not afraid to speak her mind (she shares Hugo's immense dislike of Binns), which she does in class. A lot.

But through all that she's friendly and fun, and flirty, yes. She also would know all the Potter/Weasleys and of course the Finnigans and I've talked with some of you about lines, just GIVE THEM ALL TO ME NAO!!!

Here's her bio: http://heysonali.insanejournal.com/416.html#cutid1 I'mma try and finish her 5 things later but TELL ME HOW WE CAN PLOTZ!!!
