New intro!
Hey everybody! Patricia here, as promised, with new kid on the block Gregory Goyle! I still need to work on userpic keywords, but with the Ministry plot starting tomorrow I felt it would be good to introduce him as soon as possible.

Anyway, I'm sure you all know Greg. Most of the people who were at Hogwarts during the nineties will only recognize him as the surviving half of that massive entity known as Croyle. However, the truth is that they weren't as interchangeable as most people think. While Vincent Crabbe remained wide, Greg followed the example of Dudley Dursley and lost the chubbiness. While Crabbe was loud and impulsive, Greg was quiet and more pondered (even if he also had occasional hot-headed moments). And, perhaps more important of all, while Crabbe was plain sadistic and loved to hurt people just for the fun of it, Greg had a high yet misguided sense of morality, and would only hurt people when he thought they had done wrong. All his life, he thought his dad and his fellow Death Eaters were the good guys while Dumbledore and Harry Potter were evil, and acted according to that idea. He makes no excuses about this, as he knows now he was wrong, but as long as you don't upset his sister he won't really care what you say about him either. He's just trying to carry on with his life.

With his father dead and his mother hospitalized (the Malfoys being kind enough to help with her expenses, to his extreme gratitude and shame), Greg now lives alone, with his baby sister Gertie (a dormmate of Rachel Cooper and Minnie Sung at Hogwarts, and the complete opposite of him, as she's extremely clever and never advocated any sort of purism) joining him on the holidays, and works as a bouncer at the same nightclub where Evan and Sean work.

Oh, and I should warn you that his English is appalling, especially in written form, and he can't spell to save his life. When you see him post, don't be alarmed. You can find more about him here.

Any plots/ideas/names to throw at him? Let me know!

Yue would not have been a fan while they were at Hogwarts, ngl. However, I imagine Minnie and Gertie got along well (in fact I would be amused if they were bffs since that could throw Yue and Greg together more), so therefore he has done his best to bury the negative feelings since the end of the war and would be polite at least.

Cece was a fellow Slytherin and IS member, and given that like Greg, she was raised to view people in a certain way, she has a lot of sympathy for him. Given her life dissolved into a mess after the Battle, she probably didn't keep in touch much since he didn't come back to Hogwarts, but if he comes to her tea shop she'll give him a discounted cake and be happy to chat.

Minnie and Gertie being BFFs would be very amusing. It was only while updating Greg's bio that I realized they'd be dormmates, and that was enough to make me wonder how odd things would have been for the girls during their first year. For Gertie's sake, Greg would make an effort to be polite and bury the hatchet even if Yue was not, so he'll be pleased to be met halfway.

Greg likes Cece (in a completely non-creepy way, so don't worry :P). He appreciates that there's someone out there who went through the same things, and will appreciate the discounts because hmmm cake. And don't worry about not being in touch, Cece, because if it wasn't for Gertie Greg would have become a bit of a recluse.

yeah well initially Minnie would've been simply friendly because the Sungs were low profile and keeping it that way, and then after her parents' murder she was crying a lot and frightened for Yue. But she certainly wouldn't have been berating Gertie - likely she disassociated Gertie from 'Death Eater family' anyway. Yue will try to rein in Spencer when he can - mainly for Minnie's sake. ^^
