HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE ♥

To kick off 2017 with some questionable decisions, our marvelous moms have entrusted crazy Callie with a fifth character! I know, I'm not sure why they're so awesome either, but I'm super excited to bring in a BABY RIBBONFIN. Who can also help me break into all the prefect fun. ;) So without further ado, let's get to Mr Milo.

Facts (tl;dr):

-Milo is a Sophomore in Ribbonfin, and also a prefect.
-I relied heavily on the Zodiac sign "Cancer" (my sign) as inspiration when creating Milo.
-Milo was born completely deaf, though he can read lips LIKE A BOSS, and has a Cochlear implant.
-His parents tried to fix his hearing when he was a baby by taking him to an experimental healer. It didn't work out.
-He and his dad have fiddled with his Cochlear using sound amplifying charms and created a potion that kind of helps amplify sound so he's not COMPLETELY helpless.
-This is the last he wants to speak about his special needs (but it's totally a thing to bring up)
-Enjoys comics, especially anything Marvel or DC, and video games, particularly Mario but really anything.
-Likes his routine, but is also outgoing and can play at being spontaneous (meaning he'll do the fun thing, but stress about it internally)
-Can be quite moody, much like a mercurial sea, but is a good kid who is really just unable to properly articulate feelings.
-Is an artist, and loves painting/drawing.
-Is outgoing, but also needs time to "recharge" after too much stimulation.
-Key tratis: Emotional, brooding, nurturing, protective, rooted in his ways, possessive, and social.
-Pretty goofy, can be awkward, not overly smooth or charming but he does alright.
-Plays the drums and wishes his parents would let him have a motorcycle.
-Milo presents as charming, carefree, independent, but he is also exceptionally sensitive and prone to impulsive judgment more than he'd care to admit. His emotions are always on his sleeve, though he doesn't necessarily know how to deal with them (retreats when he feels overwhelmed)
-Can have a temper, and while sweet is a little difficult to get to know truly.
-EXTREMELY adept at non-verbal spells and wandless magic. His father taught him non-verbal because Milo (while he can speak) doesn't really talk so pronunciation is an issue. He also figured wandless would be useful since Milo uses his hands to speak a lot.
-Is a huge fan of pretending he can't see you trying to talk to him or get his attention if he feels so inclined. Because he thinks he's funny.
-Loves that he was trusted with being a prefect because it means he's not any less than any other student, but he also likes having fun and being accepted. So. He's got some work to do on sticking to his guns.
-His familiar is a hedgehog named Sonic.
-Bio is here because I suck at these.

Classes/Extracurriculars:

-History of Magic, Transfiguration, Charms, Herbology, Potions, Aesthetic Magic, Magical Rudiments, Hermeticism
-Cheerleading, Gaming, Drama (crew)

I am looking for literally ANYTHING for him. Friends, sad attempts at flirting, people who he doesn't get along with, ANYTHING. Please love him ;_; ♥

He sounds so cuuuuuutee!!

He and Hazel have some classes together (potions, herbology, charms) and she's a cheerleader too so she probably yells all kinds of shit talking stuff at him during games and doesn't care if he can hear them or not because it's the principle of the thing.

Also she is tactless and will probably kind of seem insensitive about his hearing because she won't view it as any sort of disability, just a sort of difference about him - like she'll ask questions, will maybe tease him a bit about it if it doesn't seem to upset him (she will apologize if she does and say something equally tactless like: I don't care that your listen holes don't work right bro!). Soooo I vote AT LEAST some ridiculous interactions.

Asher is a Ribbonfin senior but being not a prefect he rarely meddles in the little Ribbonfin's lives unless they seek him out. He's probably not overly interesting to Milo lol

Awww thanks. I had to try and match Hazel's cuteness. ;) DIDN'T COME CLOSE.

That is so amazing, I love her so much. Like he'd totally see her doing it and just smile and point to his ears like 'what???? CAN'T HEAR YOU OVER HOW AWESOME I AM'

Milo would actually kind of love that. He hates people treating him differently, so. This would be refreshing. Ridiculous interactions are a must too. Just know he won't hate her or think she's tactless. Unless he's in a less teasing mood lol

Aww Asher. You're still cool, though!

	PSHHHHHHH YOU FLATTER I'm super into this jokey antagonism and silliness! If he's grumpy she'll just pat him on the head and leave him alone until he feels like being more fun. :DDD (Reply to this) (Parent)
