Hi everyone! My name is Meg and I have brought you all the adorable Bianca Dubois. There's a giant mess of information in my profile but I'll try to break down the gist of her for you all here.

- She's from Alaska, just turned 16 in February, and was a Pukwudgie when she attended Ilvermorny. Her good grades and time devoted to learning about healing is what got her into Gooseberry. She desperately wants to be a healer after graduation and is 110% focused on that over, you know, being a teenager.

- She's extremely friendly, loyal, and a devoted friend. She has a bit of a problem keeping her frustrations bottled up inside, she's a total worry wart, and she can be a bit of a perfectionist, so if you see her about to explode then you may want to back up.. a lot. It's not often that she really gets angry or yells at anyone, she's just overwhelmed when people are mean or she's doing terribly at Herbology.

- Her classes consist of Charms, Herbology, Hermeticism, History of Magic, Potions, Transfiguration, Magical Rudiments, and Defense Against the Dark Arts. Her extracurricular is limited to the event committee.

I THINK that's the basics. I'd love to find people she's been friends with since Ilvermorny, more Alaskans, boys who like to make her uncomfortable, future healers, ANYTHING REALLY. Feel free to poke me to death, I love plots and have missed RPing like woah.

HI! Welcome to the game! My name's JJ and I have nine hundred (5) characters that I'm about to talk about way too much. There's a superquick rundown of my characters here if you just want the overview!

SO I have one Ribbonfin, Ivy Templeton (

iviie here, ~duelled at dw). She's a senior but she's super duper friendly and has some friends in sophomore year. She's also very academically focused (although recently she abandoned her complicated research paper senior project to pursue her passion for art) and also not the best at dealing with stress, so she might have spotted Bianca's outbursts and felt the need to try to befriend her/help her out with that? Anxious kids support group!

Todd Skynner (

schemingly here, ~quickbuck at dw) is one of my two sophomores and probably the one who would be friendlier to Bianca, although he might also fall into the "boys who make her uncomfortable" category. He's in Coppertale but has a bunch of classes and event committee in common with her (charms, potions, transfig, DADA, magical rudiments). He's super talkative and very very friendly but sometimes doesn't know what people's social boundaries are so he can come off a little pushy too.

Ariadne Flint (

deimons/~untarnish) is my other sophomore and is not very nice. She's in Ebonhide and also on event committee as well as most of Bianca's classes (charms, herbology, history of magic, transfig, DADA). She's an exchange student from Hogwarts, where she was a Slytherin, and is a little bit of an ice queen. The sophomores get up to a lot of antics as a group though, so I'm sure they'll run into each other at some point!

Reece Downing (

thingamabobbs/~peanutbuttercup) is a junior Azurcrest, but he's also a prefect and tries to be very involved in the underclassmen's lives, in a friendly way. He just likes making people laugh and making sure they're having a good time, and is a good ear to vent to if you're just frustrated.

And lastly this is Clementine Decourt (neattrick/neattrick), who's probably the least relevant to Bianca. She's an Ebonhide junior and her entire life is Quidditch. They probably don't cross paths too often

Hi JJ! LOL at anxious kids support group. I feel like they need to practice breathing exercises and yoga or something. She'd definitely be appreciative of having an older sister figure who's been through it all to hang out with and talk to in the house, and she's try her best to be there for her too when she needed it. She likes art and would have encouraged her to go for it!

Most of what makes her uncomfortable about boys is when they start flirting or acting weird around her so she's super confused and doesn't know how to act back, haha. Friendly and talkative is good because that's how she is as well! She'd easily be friends with him.

Ariadne would probably make her have to practice those breathing exercises so she doesn't blow up on her when she's being rude or something. I see a possible outburst in the future LOL.

Bianca's not one to get into trouble so she'd probably be on Reece's good side and ask him what it's like to be a prefect because she wanted to be one too.

	YES this all sounds good Todd might do that lmao. He thinks he's very smooth when in reality he is not very smooth. Sorry Bianca! & I forgot to mention but since Bianca's dad was a professional Quidditch player, Clementine would definitely know of him. Her dad was also a professional athlete but he played Quodpot.

	LOL she'd just be so confused and maybe slowly back away or make an excuse to leave. I want to say that Bianca's dad played for the Welsh team, but I don't think I wrote that down anywhere so I'm gonna have to ponder. (Reply to this) (Parent)

If you ever have any questions, let me know! My name's Aleena, btw. I have two characters:

Cressida Quayle (this journal): She goes by Cricket, pretty much exclusively. She's the Senior Ebonhide Prefect and big sister to Ulysses Quayle. She's warm, friendly, and quick to put other's needs before her own, but is also very anxious and prone to dramatics (especially when it comes to 'protecting' her brother and her close friends). Cricket makes it a point to reach out to absolutely everyone at school, so they definitely would have interacted in some capacity. She spends most of her time in the library or the stables. Oh, and they're in Event Committee together!

Jesse McBride (~ijustknowit): Jesse is the Senior Azurcrest Prefect. He is a bright kid with a dumb sense of humor. It's nearly impossible to ruffle his feathers, because he's quick to take a jab at himself before someone else can take a jab at him. He's not a very strict prefect and has a reputation as a party animal, but he's kind and well-meaning deep down. I'm not sure how much they'd interact.

	insightfulness 2017-03-14 05:33 pm UTC (link)
	I definitely will! I feel like the events committee is full of mean girls so Bianca will be thankful to have another nice sane person she can hide with when there's a mean girl meltdown or something lol. I'm sure Bianca will do a lot of commenting around and try to get to know people, older or not. (Reply to this) (Parent)

HELLO. WELCOME. I'm Jenny. Passing on the new person crown to you. I play two characters, both seniors.

Xavier Lewis (this account) is in Ribbonfin and will undoubtedly interact with Bianca over the journals as he tends to just go where the winds take him. Xavier is completely harmless so I don't think he'd make Bianca too nervous?
Dimi Evercreech (

evercretin) is in Coppertale. He started at GB halfway through the school year. Dimi's little brother is in Bianca's year and house, so they may bump into each other that way.

	Hi Jenny! I think she probably would make a point to get to know everyone in their house anyway, so the two of them would have definitely interacted over the past couple of years. Boys who make her nervous are usually flirty and make her get confused and unable to think. (Reply to this) (Parent)

HELLOOOO! WELCOME!! My name is Alex and I have 5 characters which is too many, but let me try and get through them allllllll in order of who I think might be most relevant!

1. Riley Stamper (

rageahol/I haven't decided her dw name :c) is your fellow Alaskan! She's an Azurcrest Junior and an immature party brat who mostly just wants attention. She's from the Kenai Peninsula, where her mom is the headmistress of the school of magic, and she is either a pouty child who wants to start a fight or a menace in spin the bottle who gets too handsy because she has no boundaries.

2. Jefferson Key (

magicnumber/~racingstripe @ dw) is a fellow sophomore! He's generally just a loud and enthusiastic and sweet ray of sunshine and light and naivete. They have a handful of classes together (I'm pretty sure, I haven't checked jeffy's schedule in a minute, I can't keep track of all these characters)! He's very friendly and NO MATTER WHAT can probably find any reason to talk to her.

3. Rosemary Stoker (this journal/~browbeats) is a Ribbonfin junior and prefect! She will generally be friendly to most people, but she has a temper and a shitty side that comes out at the wrong times sometimes. She gets the worry wart/perfectionist side, and might find herself getting closer if she sees her about to explode. You can't scare her, she's seen it all. She tends to play helicopter mom with her own dorm and that might extend down to the younger years just a tad.

4. Nathaniel Bird (

flyover/~birdbrainy) is an Ebonhide senior prefect who studies more than he interacts with other students. There probably won't be much overlap because he's a lame nerd in the library. :(

5. Robin Youngblood (

hanshotfirst/~hisshiss) is a Coppertale senior and he's weird. He's a conspiracy theorist from a survivalist compound. He doesn't believe in platypuses, he swears too much, and thinks he's one funny motherfucker. Engage at your own risk.

Hi!! I forgot to mention that Bianca's username on dw will be the same, so that'll be easy for everyone at least.

YAY ANOTHER ALASKAN! I didn't expect to see one. Bianca probably sought her out on that reason alone, but I'm not sure how well they would have got along once she figured out how feisty she is.

Enthusiastic and sweet is all she needed to hear! I'm sure they have at least ONE class together, it's kinda hard for them not to. She'll definitely befriend Jefferson easily and they can be giant balls of sunshine together.

Bianca tries to befriend all the Ribbonfins so they'll definitely be interacting, especially since she wants to know how Rosemary managed to get prefect because she's bitter she wasn't chosen LOL.

Hiiii! Welcome! I'm Lyss and I have FOUR here, and one is brand new so bear with me.

Jade Otterwell (this one!) is an Azurcrest sophomore who I just introed too so yay fresh sophomores :)!
She's a pureblood brat who got transferred around a lot as a child and coped with it by becoming Satan. She probably won't be that nice to Bianca, because she doesn't need to be, but they're in some classes and event committee!

Ferdinand Ayers ~ferdies here and ~ferdie at dw) is your Ribbonfin Junior prefect. He's quiet, kind of a smartass, very logical. His mom was known for basically being Rita Skeeter at MACUSA and stealing state secrets for her journalism career so has been protective of him forever to keep him from her critics. He's trying to get over it. He will hover a little as a prefect too, and will be very nice and non threatening at Bianca.

Addy Foster-Hayes (~adorbs here and ~addyfh at DW) is a Junior Azurcrest who actually only very recently became a prefect. It was weird. She's a reforming party girl who is not in fact reforming that much. She is very warm, chatty, kind of awesome at potions, takes people under her wing a lot. She was a Thunderbird at Ilvermorny. She will be nice to Bianca!

And finally Leonardo Fiori (~challenge here and ~ninjaleo at DW) is a senior Ebonhide/ captain of their Quidditch team. He wants to be an Auror but will settle for Quidditch. He's kind of quiet when you don't know him but is generally decent as a person, so if their paths cross, he will not do anything rude. Actually, her drive looks a lot like his so if they ever spoke he'd probably admire that very much!

Hi Lyss!

Bianca doesn't like mean people and will have to hold her tongue around her, but I'd love the possibility of Jade pushing her buttons to try to get her to explode, especially during event committee stuff.

She's not much of a trouble maker so she'll definitely try to stay on Ferdinand's good side. She also makes a point to try to get to know all the Ribbonfin's so they'll probably interact quite a bit.

Bianca goes out of her way to befriend people, so finding someone nice to chat with from another year and house will be like some sort of social victory for her, haha.

Hi Meg! I'm Meggie, and I'm one of the mods. We actually played together briefly in Something Wicked! Notably, I was Archie Peakes and Camilla Flume. :) WELCOME TO THE GAME! I play way too many characters, soooo here we go.

Calvin Evercreech (

evercreep/~evercreep) is a sophomore Ribbonfin. He'll likely know Bianca the best. Calvin is a reformed Slytherin bully transfer student from Hogwarts. Last year he was reaaaally unpleasant, but this year he's just snippy and abrasive. He's warmed up dramatically lately. Calvin's also extremely booksmart, although he's got no career goals yet. He tends to be defensive of fellow Ribbonfins, so he won't be as difficult with Bianca.

Rafael Ramirez (

firstposition/~firstposition) is a senior Coppertale. He has a reputation for being an overbearing prefect. Usually he's polite and poised, but he has a very low tolerance for bullshit and is quick to anger. He cares a lot, though, and tends to be very sweet with the little sophomores. He may make her nervous just because he's a bit intense, but I think he'll respect Bianca for being an upstanding, smart kid.

Diego Morales (

morale/~indiefolk) is a senior Azurcrest. He's FRIENDLY and kind of DITZY, but a very talented musician who can play a whole slew of instruments. Diego's the resident lovable hot mess, and he just wants everyone to like him. If Bianca befriends his little stepsister, Essie, or if she ever goes to parties, she'll have met Diego.

Mackenzie Prince (

princeprincess/~princeprincess) is a junior Azurcrest. She's basically what would happen if you stuck a class clown and mean girl in a blender. Kenzie's always on the hunt for a good joke, but she tends to be callous and mean-spirited. Bianca doesn't seem like someone she'd go out of her way to target, aside from teasing her if they ever cross paths.

Reid Wainwright (

unresponsive/~cygninae) is a junior Coppertale. Reid's the Seeker for Coppertale, who briefly lost the position due to low investment in the team, but he earned it back recently. He's cold and unfriendly, which makes people think he's an ice prince. The reality, though, is that Reid is... really, really socially awkward. His verbal skills are terrible, he's inarticulate, and he's constantly frustrated. He probably won't talk to Bianca much, but if he does, he's not a mean guy. Just stilted.

	Hi name twin! Ahh yes, I remember! I like to evolve and reuse this character too much, haha. Bianca would like to take full credit for Calvin becoming less of a grumpy gills, whether it's true or not. Since they're the same year/house she'd have nagged him to death anyway, because she wants to become close with everyone. (Reply to this) (Parent)

But hello Meg and welcome!!!!! I'm Marin, one of the mods, and I believe I played with you briefly before in Something Wicked? :D So it's exciting to see you here now!

Micah St. Clair (

auteur/

stclair), Azurcrest sophomore, Quidditch reserve. Micah is an aspiring film director with abysmal taste in movies; he's excitable, talkative, never seems to take anything seriously, and sometimes has a poor sense of boundaries. Micah's Bianca's classmate and DEFINITELY the kind of boy who might make her uncomfortable with flirting. He's also a Horned Serpent in Ilvermorny!

Sylvester Stoker (

stokers/

threatens), Coppertale junior, Quidditch captain and Chaser. Sy is a hyper-competitive alpha male douchebag who yells and fights a lot, but he's been slooowly getting better as he copes with more responsibility. Bianca is more likely to cross paths with his twin sister, Rosemary, than with Sy; which is probably good since Sy seems like the type of guy she'd want to stay clear of?

Ravinder Dhaliwal (

paladins/

knightly), Ribbonfin senior prefect. Ravi tries to be very Nice and Well-Behaved and Responsible and fusses over all the Ribbonfins like he's their fish dad. He's also secretly goofy and very intensely into LARP and fantasy novels. Ravi is also an aspiring Healer who's takes it super seriously; he's only really started to loosen up in his final year. He'd be very friendly and supportive of Bianca, and show concern whenever she loses her temper.

Wilhelmina Tran (

resentfully/I AM SO STUMPED ON A NEW USERNAME), Ebonhide senior. Mina is an abrasive drama queen who rules Event Committee with an iron fist; she's more sensitive than she lets on but most people won't ever realize that because Mina doesn't believe in showing weakness. Bianca will know Mina as the Event Committee Dictator, if nothing else; and has been bossed around by her or needlessly criticized for putting decorations too close or too far apart. :'c

most ppl in this game have too many characters. i'm sorry in advance.

Ahh yes, hi!! I had a lot of fun while I was there, and I obviously can't stop playing this character.

Yay a fellow Ilvermorny student from the same year! His flirting would make her super confused and wanna run for the nearest exist, though. She's a jumpy little bird. Other than that, I think they'd get along quite well when he's not making her internally scream.

Bianca makes a point of getting to know all the Ribbonfins so she'd not only befriend Ravinder because of that, but also gravitate towards him because he wants to be a healer and it's another person she can talk their ear off about that.

Wilhelmina would probably frustrate her to no end. She is soooo not here for her drama queen act and constantly being criticized.

hey newbie. my name's cameron, and i've managed to pick up three characters in just a few months. also, i share a name w a character, which is occasionally confusing (inside scoop — if people are taking the piss, they're talking about me, the cam-the-player, lmao.) sadly, i dont play any ribbon fund, but that's okay. we can wing it, lol.

#1 is my sophomore, cassius holcomb (

superlatively), also known as cash. he's a coppertale, an overachiever, and something of a deadpan snarker. cash would definitely respect bianca's grades, perfectionism and drive, altho he can be kind of judgemental and would probably raise an eyebrow at any anxious exploding. he gets along with most folks fine, tho, and they share classes/the sophs are always getting into shenanigans together, so i'm sure they'll interact at times.

#2 is azurecrest senior, mercedes estrada (

smallmercies). she's super talkative and friendly, although she can unsettle people with her innocently invasive (and sometimes macabre) questions. mercy has a congenital heart defect that might spark idle curiosity in future-healer bianca, but otherwise, they'll probably only interact by virtue of their mutual niceness, lol. ALSO EVENTS COMMITTEE, which i nearly forgot about.

lastly, #3 is ulysses quayle (@ this journal). he's an ebonhide junior and... a total shitheel, lmao. ulysses is a Spoiled Brat with Feelings (the worst kind, imo) and generally thinks he's 2 Cool 4 Sophomores. he's also smart-but-high-strung and easily provoked into a shouty tantrum, so he and bianca ... may not play well together if they ever do talk (which could be fun). or they could get along fine! ulysses recently, infamously, got his dumbass magically lost in the woods for several days, so that's a thing she would know about him.

yikes, this comment is probably gonna be very long. oh well. anyway, welcome aboard!

She'll probably be overly friendly with Cassius unless he gets super rude on her when she's anxious or something. Actually, she'd probably still try to be friendly to him anyway cause she's a sucker.

Events committee is a good enough reason for her to try to befriend Mercedes! And since she's overly nice too, I'm sure they'll be obnoxious together.

Ulysses is typically not someone she'd probably become friends with, but she's a pushover and tries to convert everyone to her cult of niceness anyway and might be obnoxiously friendly.

kurt wolfhart (

lovekurts/~puphart) is a junior ribbonfin and i think they would get along pretty well! he was also a pukwudgie. :3 he's a very friendly and warm guy, a drama geek, and obsessed with animals/nature in general. non-confrontational. he's been very timid/shy in the past but is trying to BREAK THROUGH IT ALL this year and become New Kurt! it's sort of working? he also has a stutter.

casey patterson (

sunsoutgunsout/~sunsoutgunsout) is a junior coppertale cheerleader with little overlap. he'll laugh if he sees her explode. he's a beta bully on the long, long road to reform who lashes out when he feels at a disadvantage. he's one of the mean girls. :x

quinn cunningham (

qnnc/~quinning), azurcrest senior, is another overworked and aspiring healer! she totally gets the mufferaw worship. she also gets how herbology is the worst. she spends 90% of her time in the library and maybe she blew up at sophomores that one time, and is a prefect who walks the fine line between "strict about her duties" and "but also a party-girl." she's a bit of a hypocrite and a total jock. she's in EC with bianca!

kazim raza (

FORMER PUKWUDGIES UNITE! They probably knew each other at Ilvermorny since they're only a year off from one another, so she was probably very excited to see a familiar face once she was sorted into Ribbonfin. Aww, he sounds super sweet! Aside from her stalking all the Ribbonfins and trying to make them her friend, I think she'd definitely go out of her way to be super nice to Kurt.

Hahaha! Casey just might make the short list of people Bianca "strongly dislikes" if he's mean to her.

YAY ANOTHER HEALER FOR HER TO BOTHER! Bianca goes out of her way to stalk them all and make them her friends, mostly because I think she just likes forming small cults of people who share her core interests. She also needs people to share her pain with over the worst subject ever aka herbology, so she will cling to Quinn for deal life.

Hi Meg, welcome to the game! I'm Josie and I remember you from Something Wicked -- I played Persephone Diggle, who was roomies with Aileen. :)

I have four characters here, but the first and most important is Pippa Nightingale! She's also a Ribbonfin sophomore (formerly a Hufflepuff, only started at Gooseberry in September) and I think she and Bianca will get on well. Pippa is a vegan and a pacifist and is on a (so far unsuccessful) mission to snag herself a cute American boyfriend. Herbology is actually one of her strongest subjects (Pippa's older sister is a herbologist!) so she could help Bianca with that if you like? But either way I think they should be friends. :)

Coralee Wong (

firecoral) is a Coppertale junior, and one of Gooseberry's Mean Girls (although she tries to hide her bitchiness under fake sweetness and passive aggression). Coralee is a troll who loves stirring up trouble for the lulz, and pretty much just treats people like they're there for her entertainment. She's in Event Committee with Bianca!

Henrietta Gray (

unregrettable) is a senior and the Azurcrest Quidditch captain and Seeker. She's a typical party girl, likes flirting and having fun, but can be pretty blunt.

Irene Lovelace (

interlacing) is an Ebonhide senior, and is pretty quiet and bookish until you get to know her (which isn't easy, as she's very guarded).

I remember Persephone! It's good to see you again :)

This character was also a Hufflpuff named Pippa at one point, so OBVIOUSLY they were meant to be close! Bianca will help her find an American boyfriend in exchange for herbology help, she's desperate to pass and obviously Pippa is going to be her bestest friend ever.

Poor Bianca is going to regret joining the events committee. It's like a mean girls breeding ground LOL.

hullo meg ♥ welcome welcome i am kay & i have three babies

Zoey Valentine (

valentinez, potionz at dw), a ribbonfin senior soooo likely knows bianca! calm, friendly, frankly super ribbonfinny w some sprinkles of rebellion. she plays chaser for ribbonfin + the gooseberry school team, is in a band w a couple of azurcrests, super super good at potions & starting up a lil business with a friend, kinda brainy/academic, annnnnnd also a wannabe seer (much to the dissatisfaction of her mother, though this has kind of fell to the wayside the last few months so it's all good). most recently she's been falling back into some overworking tendencies BUT since making the gooseberry team she's chiller & kinda way into that. ;-; she tends to get along w pretty much everyone cos she's so chill ? so yeah!

then there's Laurel Templeton, [

laaurel, kingofthefairies] -- she's an azurcrest senior, super into drama & theatre & costumes and clothing charms, dancer, nerdy lil bookworm. she's kinda just a silly, straightforward, cheery type who has a hard time taking anything seriously except her sincere interests, but that's been changing somewhat due to the Thing in the Woods (laurel's had a handful of experiences and is starting to realize that it might be a problem). she also has an identical twin in ribbonfin (ivy!!), which is fun. bianca would know her from event committee! :u

last is this journal, Jonathan Wilde (same journal name at dw), who is mostly an aloof, pretentious dude w a competitive streak who likes to write ~secret poetry~ and do sick skateboard tricks/risk his life for the daredevil lulz. reserve keeper for the ebonhide team. hides insecurities under a prickly too-cool too-smart exterior, or at least that is his intention. is actually kind of a good friend if he likes you. so many dumb feelings. he and bianca might run into eachother here & there but probably don't overlap too much

Hi Kay!

Yess! She made a point to get to know all the Ribbonfins before anyone else since they're her housemates, so she's definitely nagged Zoey and is probably super intrigued that she wants to become a seer and encourages her to go for it.

I think she and Laurel will get along well enough during event committee meets, which will give her a reason to nag her outside of them as well. She gravitates towards anyone friendly and willing to chat with her.

I'm sure they'll interact through journals at some point!

Hello and welcome to the game! I'm Jackie and I've got three brats at the current moment:

Frankie Noble (

anadem/idk yet on DW) is an Azurcrest Sophomore. She's an enthusiastic little nerd who enjoys doodling on walls and reading comic books. (Her hearing aids are purple like Hawkeye's. She's a huge dweeb.) They have some classes together and they're both on Event Committee, so Frankie will be friendly!

And Roxanne Barringer (

tightwire/~uponawire) is a Junior from Coppertale. She was raised in what pretty much equates to Magic Traveling Circus and walks tightrope when she's not at school violently beating on things during Quidditch games. They probably won't have too much overlap, but we'll see!

And then there's this disaster, Sebastien Lacroix (

suchaguppy/~professionalcorpse). He's a prefect and a Sophomore over in Ebonhide. And while he is definitely a boy, he's probably not nearly smooth enough in any capacity in order to make her uncomfortable. Unless copious talking makes her uncomfortable. In which case, he apologizes. Profusely.

Hi Jackie!

Bianca will probably oo and ahh over Frankie's comics because the pictures look cool and she never got into them herself, but she'll also be happy to have another friendly person in the event committee with her as well and they can hunch together away from the mean girls.

She and Roxanne may interact in journals at least! And Sebastien probably won't bother her much, she likes talking and it's usually flirting that makes her start to clam up and get confused!

YES. Frank doesn't get the mean girls. They make no sense to her and she will be happy to avoid them with Bianca. They can just decorate things and stay safe in a corner.

Bash flirts like an idiot. In that it is ridiculous and purposefully over the top and very clearly joking. Because, as mentioned, not smooth. Not smooth at all. And I just realized that Bianca's in the same cabin as Gabi, who is Bash's favorite lady. So he'll definitely be over in their dorm. Doing people's hair.

	Neither does Bianca. She's more than ok with avoiding the drama queens and talking about random stuff while they try to make things look pretty. She can be SUPER clueless at times so there's a chance it might go right over her head. Ohh yes! He can be an honorary Ribbonfin! (Reply to this) (Parent)

Hi there! Welcome to the game ♥ I'm Jordan and I have three, two of which will be more relevant to you.

Avery Davenport played on this journal is a JR Ribbonfin! She's a MTF trans (though not out, ecxept to a select few) and Quidditch Captain (Keeper) and all-around pretty nice. She doesn't ~discriminate~ because Bianca is younger, so I'm definitely down for them to be friends! New friends or have been friends, up to you!

Isabelle Sargent @

_sparrow is a Sophomore in Ebonhide! She went to Ilvermorny as well, though she was a Horned Serpent. In their third year at Ilvermorny, Isabelle had a very very public mental breakdown and was whisked away to a hospital after that, spent a year away from school and came to Gooseberry just this year, so she was not around for Freshman year. She finds seeing anyone who was there/remembers/may have been her friend before at Ilvermorny here at Gooseberry to be very uncomfortable and has likely avoided B for these reasons - HOWEVER, if B had approached her or does approach her like, un-bothered by it or whatever, Isabelle wouldn't brush her off and I can see them being friends. Not to mention, they take a lot of the same classes (Charms, Hermeticism, Potions, Transfiguration, and Defense Against the Dark Arts). She is ALSO in Event Committee, so they're around each other a TON.

Lastly, I have Penelope Vargas @

sneakoscoped. She's a Senior Coppertale, who is kind of a raging bitch and doesn't make friends well and probably would not like/know Bianca.

Annnd that's it. Again, welcome to the game and I look forward to plotting/playing with you!

hi jordan! i think bianca and avery would get along swimmingly! she definitely sought out all the ribbonfins to befriend when she arrived her freshman year, and she'd also never judge her for being trans if she were to ever find out.

aww, poor isabelle. i think bianca would have been super worried about her and wondered if she was ok until they were reunited at gooseberry. bianca would definitely make a point to run up to her, 100% unbothered by her breakdown and just happy to see that she's ok.

Hey~ ♥! I'm Rin with 4 little nerds:

Hazel

lilwitchhazel: Coppertale Sophomore who loves sports and talking really loud and climbing trees! Though not technically 100% into the whole healing thing, her mother is a nurse and she's got a knack for healing magics and is interested in improving the Wolfsbane potion, so healing is in her blood and in her interests! They have classes together. Hazel is ace at Herbology so if Bianca needs help Hazel might not be a bad study buddy! Also if you're not a jerkwad she'll probably like you, so B's probs in the clear

Garrett

garogletree: ALSO a Coppertale Sophomore (oops). He's a prefect, they also have class overlaps, annnnd he's pretty much attached at the hip to his twin brother Gavin (

gavogletree who is played by my bro Katie). He's a nice kid but a bit near impossible to get alone! He went to Ilvermorny and was a Thunderbird, though he did have a (very short-lived) close friend in Pukwudgie so potentially hung around there some. She likely at least knows of him from Ilvermorny since he and his twin are very conspicuous, and depending she could have also known his friend who he pretty much shunned before coming to Gooseberry. He is not a great student :(

Asher

guthriegazette: My Ribbonfin child, though he's a senior. He runs a school newsletter! He's a nerd! They probably won't have much interaction but he's nice? They'll see each other around camp??

Jaime

lupofiasco: Is completely irrelevant but I should mention his dumb butt. Junior Azurcrest, silly boy who loves animals and is trying to be responsible but is still kind of a disaster.

Hi Rin! Bianca will take all the herbology help she can get. She is desperate to keep her grades high and it's the only class bringing her GPA down. Plus, she likes anyone who's nice, so she and Hazel can totally be study buddies.

Bianca would probably have made a point to be like "HEY I KNOW YOU FROM ILVERMORNY!" because she gets stupidly happy/excited when she finds someone familiar. If you mean not a great student like grades wise, she'd totally help him with anything other than herbology.

She's made a point to try to get to know all the Ribbonfins so at the very least she and Asher would be acquainted.

Hi Meg! I'm Manx! I'm sorry for the slow response, but I definitely have at least one kiddo for you!

Essie Morales-Tran is a sophomore Azurcrest and she considers all of the other sophomores her friends, but she has latched very strongly onto Pippa so she's a frequent visitor at Ribbonfin and I think she would get along well with B! She's very boy crazy (but only for Cute Older Boys) and quite unsuccessful about it. I'm super excited to have Bianca onboard to help Pippa get a Cute American Boyfriend!! (And I know they haven't talked in game at all, but Pippa is staying with Essie over break so if Bianca wants to come visit at some point, that would be great!) And.. Essie is Mina's little sister and Diego's little step-sister if that is at all relevant, idk.

I also have Ursula de Luca (

cecaelian), who is a junior Ribbonfin and she's a chatty prissy princess and the "nice one" of the mean girls clique. She's also gunning to take over Event Committee from Mina next year, though she may have to battle her awful cousin Coralee for the honors.

Finally I have Jacob Wood (

shirtsoptional) and he has no overlap with Bianca, but he exists. He's Casey's best bro, but he's a former bully target just trying to make it by at a new school and will leave Bianca alone and may actually intervene if he sees Casey being a dick to her.

Hi Manx! No worries, I am always just glad to have more responses.

YESSSS! THEY CAN BE THE THREE MUSKETEERS OR SOMETHING? Either way, definitely friends. She'd totally appreciate not having to stay at home bored the entire break, too.

Bianca would go out of her way to be nice to Ursula because she's a fellow Ribbonfin, but she'd frown at her choice in friends and probably leave her alone when she's around them.

She'd definitely appreciate the help from Jacob if he ever steps in while she's being picked on! She's the kind of person who would do the same.
