! intro, max

HEY Y'ALL. Max here with a brand new pufflehuff.

Gertie Goyle is nineteen years old and graduated Hogwarts class of 2003. That means that she overlapped with those in the trio's year during their seventh year of Hogwarts when Voldie was in power, as well as their optional second seventh year. Anyone younger than the trio would have had more opportunity to interact with her, and anyone older than the trio would be unlikely to know her at all unless they had some other connection. She was dorm-mates with Leah's little sister.

Her dad died in the battle of hogwarts and her brother Greg went to prison, so it was just her and mum for a while. But then mum lost her marbles, so she spent some (yet undetermined) years living under the care of the social worker Cecil Frobisher. She didn't really interact with Vic because there was such an age gap, but she became close friends with another foster sister and fellow Death Eater kid, NPC foster-sister Josie.

That's enough history I think. Nowdays Gertie is a Witch Weekly intern who'd really rather work at the Prophet like her dad. But not like her dad because he's a terrorist. She's extremely clever and sarcastic, but she's also kind of immature. She's very inexperienced in the ways of the world, and definitely hasn't figured out how to be a grown-up yet. She lives with Greg and relies on him for almost everything. In return she (very secretly) pads their budget with money she makes writing erotica for a very seedy women's magazine called Glamour de l'Amour. The sex scenes are decent, but she's definitely not writing from experience.

So... that's baby Goyle. I don't know if she'll really be able to get much interaction but I'm really excited about her. Any possible connections?

That wasn't suppised to post yet. Ah well. Better that than lose it altogether. Evan will *see* Gertie at the Snatch.

Jade - probably didn't know her really in school. She is often at The Snatch though, and if you want could have seen Geryie sneak glances at the girls there? Jade would be more likely to notice that because she is doing the same, although not to write porn.

Romilda - hmmm. There are a couple of possible links here. Romilda will know the Frobishers bc of Vic, but if there's not any overlap that might not do much. Romilda probably reads her porn, because it's Romilda and porn.

Lucy - fellow Puff and friends with Greg.... although that's a bit strained since they kind of dated. She would have always been super nice to Gertie even back in school. So maybe friendly? I'd hope Gertie would be a bit more forgiving of Lucy's former politics bc of Gertie's dad and bro. Hey, they have de daddys in common!

Alex is pretty much always a dick, but she may have escaped his notice, beibg younger and a puff. What do you reckon?

Dean doesn't have much reason to know her even if they did overlap a little in school. Unless you can think of anything? He'll be nice anyway.

And my older ones:
Mel's dad is a journalist so their paths might cross that way? She'll be nice too.

Barney has no idea who she is but will be nice. She may have met him in an intern context, as with Patricia's keepers. He's a puff too, although I dont think that does much when they weren't at school in the same years.

Lee is kind of a dick to Greg so she probably doesn't like him much. Also Lee and Greg were paired in the love potipn plot soooo that.

Luke is nice and everything but he barely even talks to his bffs so.... probably not much interaction. Possibly through Zoe in the future.

Sally wants to give her a makeover. Um. In her defence it's kind of her job, -ish.

Glenys - it's a shame there was no overlap in Hogwarts because Glenys was a super involved prefect and headgirl who knows alllll the younger puffs. Oh! Glenys dabbles in psychological healing so she could have worked with Gertie's mom?

Valentina is unlikely to ever talk to her.

Yakov will talk to her if she ever mentions food or sleeping.

Myron has two possible routes to know her - through her working at F & B and through her WW internship. I imagine Witch Weekly like him lots. If you want, Gertie could have used her Wagtail connections to bag an interview with him at some point? He will be nice and pretend to remember her even if he doesn't.

Oh hey, that's everyone! For now....

	Myron- or that's something we could play out, her asking him for an interview. (Reply to this) (Parent)

Gertie loves Jade and only wants good things for her, but is very confused about this love potion thing. She doesn't have a crush on Jade, but she certainly sees the good in her (even when it isn't always there) and sees how she could be a potentially very attractive partner. Gertie is a romantic, though so IDK.

I would love if Gertie could learn that Romilda reads her writing. She might pretend to be a reader as well and use her as a teeny tiny focus group. Which Romilda would probably eventually figure out because she's not stupid.

Gertie kind of idolises Lucy because she's successful and pretty. But she broke up with Greggie, so she's clearly a little bit broken. Because Greg is a catch, Lucy.

She was besties with Josie, so she certainly knows about him. :( She thinks he's slutty. But she kind of likes that.

	Awww. Jade appreciates people who don't hate her. She doesn't see very much good in herself. Hmmm how do you think it would come up? Romilda could maybe post something about one particular story being more saucy than usual and Gertie could respond? Haha, well to be fair to Lucy, Greg was sleeping with Lee at the time :-P Yeahhhhh he is kind of slutty. (Reply to this) (Parent)
