Character Plotting Meme

Welcome (back) to Finchwood Academy, kids! This year is going to be a whole different ball game, so we hope you're ready! Because all of the currently played characters were here last year, and because we obviously have a massive influx of characters all at once, this meme is to help you find your kids' places in the world.

Character Name:
Concept Line: Just copy-paste it here!
Year and House:
Squad and Position:
Classes:
Extracurriculars:

Brief Summary: Give us a few bullet points or a few sentences to describe your character. This should actually be brief.
Last Year: How did they adjust to Finchwood last year? Did they take to learning how to fight Shadows really well? Did they make a ton of friends? Enemies? A ton of romantic mistakes?
This Year: Did they stay over the summer? How're they feeling about getting back in the swing of things? How're they feeling about having to share a room again if they were free of that for the summer?
Wanted lines: What are you in the market for? Friends, enemies, smooch buddies, a training pal?

Plotting thread:
Anything else?: Just, like, some stuff?
GIF: Give us a cute gif of your new kiddo, because we always need gifs!

HOW THIS WORKS

• Post your meme responses into the "Responses" section, and put a comment in "Plotting" so we can all respond.


• This serves as both a Wanted Lines Meme and a Character Intro post, so take full advantage of both of those aspects!


• Only accepted characters can be posted on this meme, both in response to others and as their own meme responses. We're sticking to our guns, and we'll delete any posts that violate this. >:( (Don't make us do that, please).

Re: Emma Lilywhite

[empereurs]

Okay so I think last year Flint and Emma didn't really have a relationship? Flint thought she was... a bit odd, but he was a quiet nerd and she was a loud nerd of a different kind, so he was fine with keeping it to strictly classmates. AND NOW THEY'RE LEADING SQUAD 4!! Flint will want to be friends with Emma but also he might still not know what to make of her, but he's going to try.

I think they'll click better in Training than anywhere else because Flint is also Down To Fight and if Emma wants to punch hard and be punched hard, then Flint will be glad to oblige. He respects her skills and judgement. I think I mentioned this... way back somewhere else... but I do imagine that Flint is fairly good/responsible as a leader but also not the best at being flexible/cool-headed in a crisis? So I think they have the potential to complement each other well but idk how easily they'll get to that point :|a

WAIT I EXTREMELY FUCKED THIS UP they play dnd together!!!!!!! ok so flint knows emma better than average so he's like okay well she's very smart but a little off the beaten track??? but i think most of the stuff in the second paragraph still tracks

sorry im tired

OH RIGHT DND!!! I'm about 99% sure Emma plays dnd like a fucking disaster who just charges into fights with no exit strategy planned, because that's fun?? So I can imagine finding out that's your second is probably already the highlight of Flint's year. But even with dnd she probably doesn't completely have a read on him just yet and might be a bit of a shit as she tries to figure out him/what makes him tick.

BUT training together will probably be good, because she can respect someone who goes hard and doesn't show fear. It might be a little bit before they realize they have those complementary skills? There's potential for some low key tension that builds until something forces them to both cede some ground and then I could see Emma just being like, "and this is my brother Flint, he knocked out one of my teeth in training once so now we're bonded for life."
