! intro, julie

So he's finally here! *cue Kermit flailing of arms* YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! This will sadly probably be my last character, because i am so abominably slow with apps. Anyway recap... I'm Julie, 28, from Australia and currently an at home person as I've been recovering from broken ankle/leg for past 6 months but hoping to possibly get back to TAFE next year to get back into Graphic Design. Here at AG I'm the deputy mod, not that I've been much of one of late, and my other two characters are Allegra Flint (Slytherin, Fifth Year) and Cassius Warrington (Slytherin, Sixth Year)... er, no i don't have a thing for playing Slytherins. >.>

This here is Rémy Laurent. He's a 7th Year from Beauxbatons; more specifically the 7B class. Er, he does actually have a middle name, but in trying to finish the app off I haven't had a chance to properly think of what it ought to be.

Rémy is a naturally charming, friendly, easy-going type of person. Generally never has a bad word to say about anyone, and that's including people he doesn't like. (OMG don't you just hate him now?) He's the sort of person that prefers the quiet rather than say go to a Quidditch match. He is a completely hopeless romantic (but he's not going to sit around waiting for Prince Charming).
He looooves music! Loves singing and playing his guitar. He's also pretty good with drawing/sketching, but doesn't really pursue it seriously.

As for family he sadly has no siblings, but he's okay with that. His mother, Françoise, is an artist, who despite being muggleborn deals mostly in magical portraiture, murals and landscapes rather than muggle art. His father, Guillaume, helps runs his family's business... which I've yet to figure out what it is except that it leaves the family being moderately wealthy. :/

So where might you see Rémy? Well he's taking Ancient Runes, Arithmancy, Astronomy, Charms, Potions and Transfiguration. So if you take those clases you'll see him around. He's also in the Choir and Drama clubs; and is grateful that the foreign students have been allowed to join. So yay.

Sadly for the girls sighing about French boys, this one is gay... buuuuut there is a bit of plottage where poor Samir thinks that Rémy is straight because he's always seen being friendly with this girl... but that's just Rémy's natural state. The only things we've (Patricia and I) have really figured out (but cant decide on) is a) the poor girl in question doesn't realise that Rémy isn't because well one he's gay and two he kind of has his eye on someone else; or b) the girl is simply one of his Beauxbatons friends.... so kind of have to decide on that.

And to stop myself from rambling on and on I'll end things here, only to say that am totally up for any plot. So friends/frenemies/enemies/whatever apply within. And if you want to read more on the boy just go here.

Any other questions that weren't answered by the profile can be asked in comments I suppose.

EDIT: So I realised I forgot to mention whereabouts Rémy comes from/lives. Right so Rémy (when not at school) lives with his parents in a smallish wizarding area in Montpellier in the Languedoc-Rousillon region. Ended up choosing Montpellier because a) sooooooo so pretty, b) er future plottage reasons. >.>

	I don't know what you mean. >.> ps: hehe the things that manage to stick in our minds. although that seems a very odd gift to receive if you aren't french or don't speak/read it fluently. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Suuure you don't. PS: I was always getting gifts like this from my French relations. I wouldn't have minded sweets or Barbie dolls, but noooo, I had to get books and board games I couldn't really understand. Ah well, at least my book of fairytales had cool illustrations.

	Nope, nooooot a clue at all. whistles innocently ps: ah. that makes sense, at least as to why you'd get gifts like that. nods sweets or barbies certainly would've been finer choice. giggles pictures make it all better huh? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Uh-huh.

PS: Well, the pictures helped me identify the fairytale, and since I already had them somewhere else I would just pick my Portuguese book while admiring the pictures in question and how they gave a different feel to the story. (You might remember me showing you some of those pictures, which at times could be rather creepy, like the Bluebeard one.) The book only became useful once I started learning French and I started practising my diction by reading it out loud to my cousins - if they started laughing at me, then I needed to correct my pronounciation.

	giggles Super Samir... ...Super Samir searches for Rémy's clothes. ...don't judge me, it's like 2:45am right now. ps: At least you could recognise the tales that way. (... yeah that bluebeard one was eh...) Aw that's a little mean... but definitely useful way of learning proper pronounciation and all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh dear, that's not good. (On a different note, this might make you giggle as well?) PS: I think that's normal about French kids, at least those from the Greater Parisian region - and since I was used to it I didn't mind at all. (Plus our grandfather used to mock them when they made a mistake speaking Portuguese, so it's like we were even. :P) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Most of the time I try to keep the bad words from coming out at this hour. (heee love it. And definitely interesting parallels indeed.) ps: ah okies. giggles hehe i guess that would make it even. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Wise, that. That said, you should go to bed asap! (I guess it means we don't need to watch BD2 if we have Larry Crowne and Legend of Korra - everything's there already! XD And, of course, War at Home gives us what could be interpreted as Benjamin/Jasper ~~though for obvious reasons I prefer to see it as something else~~.)

PS: I think that's the main problem in a mostly bilingual family - the communication failures usually go both ways.

	Yes ma'am. (Hehe something like that. hmm... something else... wonder what that could be) Well the compliment has been posted... even if it only ended up as one sentence (couldn't think of anything else)... although that's probably enough to set Samir off. ps: probably right about that.

	gives you a McGonagall look Good. (It's difficult, I know.) Oh yes, definitely. It was enough to make him flail and go into capslock-and-strikeout overdrive. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	:P Which if Rémy could see he'd think it was cute. (Reply to this) (Parent)
