! intro, crystal

Sorry to take so long with this, but this is Crystal with my second character, Audrey (yes, that Audrey) Bulstrode! She's a 6th year Slytherin, prefect, and member of the charms club, chess club, and choir, and may be potentially interested in a drama club if that happens. She's the older sister of Millicent, though they're really not much alike. Unlike her sister, Audrey is ladylike, a good student, and tries her best to be friendly and outgoing, as she knows people skills and charisma are important in politics, which she plans on going into after Hogwarts. Despite the confident and in-control facade she presents, Audrey is kind of messed up. Her mother, whom she was very close to and aspired to be just like, died of a terminal illness a few months before she went away to Hogwarts for the first time, and since Millicent started Hogwarts, she's become resentful of Audrey and acts out. Audrey, on the other hand, tends to internalize her issues and tries to distract herself by keeping busy so she doesn't have to think about them. She's been in an on and off relationship with Adrian Pucey since late in 3rd year. They're not really the most compatible of couples, but they have a hard time letting each other go for too long, and Audrey's issues have a lot to do with that on her end. Audrey is a pretty good prefect, fair and neither overly strict nor overly lax. She's hoping to become Head Girl next year, just like her mother was.

I'm open to any and all plot, friends, enemies, frienemies, whatever! And maybe one or two boys Audrey attempted relationships with during her and Adrian's "off" periods.

ALSO, if a location for the Halloween party hasn't been officially settled on, she might be persuaded to try to get it in the Slytherin common room. She's unsure about letting outsiders into Slytherin, but she kind of wants the party, too, and if there's no better alternative, she might cave.

I *love* her PB. You seem to have a knack for finding real-looking girls. I like how she has the Bulstrode jaw and look but is still pretty.

ANYWAY.

Barney will be nice, because he's Barney and doesn't have the usual Slytherin prejudices. I think they might actually get on pretty well. They'll know each other from Charms club as well as classes.

Lee is generally pretty nice to girls. He doesn't like the Slytherin Quidditch team though and thus his opinion of her may be coloured by her relationship with Adrian (although as he's never shown committing a foul in canon, Lee won't dislike him as much as, say, Flint).

Mel will know her from Charms club and is all geared up ready for conversations about Politics :-D Er, Mel's a Marxist though, and all about the revolution so... that will be fun.

I can offer up either of my boys as someone she could have dated at some point. However, Barney is incredibly dim and will essentially need to be bludgeoned into noticing she's a girl, whereas Lee is a bit of a ladies man and has had mostly pretty casual relationships. He might also have been tempted to hit on Audrey to annoy Adrian, and then been surprised when she responded.

Let me know what you think!

I'm flattered, since I do usually try my best to make my PBs fit my characters, including having them look like real teenagers if it's in a school game, and not Adriana Lima. Though admittedly half the time it's because I just like the PB and will find some way to use them.

Audrey finds Barney's dimness amusing and oddly adorable.

Well, political discussions between Audrey and Mel will at least never be boring!

In theory, Barney actually might make more sense, considering Audrey wouldn't have a problem making the first move, but Lee would be so much more interesting! So, I'm going to go with Lee.

Haha, I do that. Mel's PB I saw and I was like, okay, next time I play a Gryffindor girl, that's her. Lee's I actually bookmarked for an Eddie Carmichael muse, but then when I decided to play Lee I was like, you know, I don't know any people who actually look like teenagers who have dreadlocks. He could work.

Awesome :-) Exes with Lee, then. He's generally pretty friendly with exes.

	It did just occur to me, though, that since Stella is crushing on Barney right now, if Stella and Audrey are going to be Mortal Enemies, it would give them something more to have enmity about if Audrey was Barney's ex. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ooh, that is a good point. On the other hand, this is a GOF game and we probably won't really be dealing with the fallout of HB/HG assignments for next year? Hm... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	We could do exes with one and then try for some kind of dating this year with another? I am just whoring my boys out. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I was totally about to say, "SHE COULD DATE BOTH. Alison would be down!" (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Works for me! Who do you think would make more sense as her ex? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I don't know. I can see it from both sides. Lee is probably more likely to try and annoy Adrian in a year with Quidditch unless Adrian does something annoying to Gryffindor. But Barney is already asking Allegra to the ball and at some point will work out that Stella isn't *actually* engaged, probably when she goes to the ball with Stebbins. Maybe Barney could go out with Audrey in between now and the Yule ball, but have broken up before then?

	I think that could work out! Her relationships with other guys tend to not last very long, so the timeframe between now/very soon and December makes sense. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Awesome, then let's do it :-) Lee's an ex, and Barney's a future. (Reply to this) (Parent)
