Celio Donati - Husband/Father ~NPC~ As of May 2022
■ NONCHALANTCelio doesn't see the point in displaying any of his anxiety or other minor emotions unless absolutely necessary. He'd rather seem completely put together and be a total mess than look the total mess that he feels. ■ WRYHe has a very dry sense of humor. Like a humid desert in the middle of July. It's probably where his daughter gets it from. ■ INTELLIGENTObviously since he's the moderately successful mechanic and slightly less successful inventor that he is, Celio would have to have some kind of intelligence. His mainly lies in technology and mathematics. He has the magic touch with numbers he says. ■ PROTECTIVECelio is extremely protective of those closest to him and would fight to the death to keep them safe. And since the abandonment of her mother, he fought extra hard to ensure that his daughter knew that not only was she loved but that she was cared for as well. He will admit to possibly going a bit overboard at times. ■ QUIRKYIt's the closest word to "weird" that'd he'd allow to apply to him. He likes to believe that the way his mind works is more reminiscent of a machine. Mainly a toaster from all the ideas that randomly pop into his mind. ■ ABSENT-MINDEDFor a person who works around tools as much as he did, he was strangely clueless when it came to his memory. He could forget where he placed things, or stick things in places that they shouldn't be, or just fix up a broken instrument that should've never been fixed in the first place. The moo'ing grandfather clock was a great example of this.

CHILDHOODCelio was born to a lower middle class Italian family and is the oldest of three boys, all 13 months or so apart. His childhood was normal for his life in Fiumicino; he rode bikes and stayed out late playing games with his siblings and other children in the neighborhood, they went to church every week like clockwork, he helped his father some days with his work in the metal shop, and he went to school. It was school and helping in the metal shop that garnered his interest for making things and figuring out how they should work.
SCHOOL YEARS
As is tradition, he was given the choice of whether to stop his education or continue when he turned fourteen. He decided to continue and enrolled in the school of science, or licieo scientifico, to learn all he could about inventing and machinery. It was relatively hard, especially applied economics, but mostly it was fun. Celio was learning all about how to become a great creator of machinery, technology, or whatever he else he wanted. It was a dream for the teen. A dream not completely shared by his siblings. His younger brother also went on to secondary school, only his was more for the language arts since he wanted to become a teacher while his youngest brother stopped his schooling and went on to join the workforce as a commercial pilot.
POST GRADUATIONHe graduated at eighteen and went on to university inevitably gaining his Masters in engineering in just two years and then settled into the barely waging job of professional inventor. His mother wasn't entirely impressed since she wanted her son to use his degree for other services, such as working a good paying job in a factory or even managing, but he wouldn't be deterred. His father understood his son's passion and supported him entirely which was enough for young Celio. His brothers, while not understanding the fascination, also supported him which both touched and annoyed their mother, but wasn't that children were supposed to do to their mothers?
For years he took on odd jobs and went to various places and conventions to sell his wares, when on one such occasion in England he ran across a young woman in a coffee shop. A beautiful woman with hair like liquid caramel and peachy skin named Rebecca. One thing led to another and the next thing he recalled they were naked in her flat (he didn't think she'd have been too impressed with his low quality hotel room). They were practically inseparable the entire three days he was there and said their goodbyes with the hope that they would somehow meet again and traded e-mails to keep in contact (since he neither had a cellular phone nor had the money to pay out of country costs). It was just a few months after their encounter that he received such an e-mail from Rebecca that she was pregnant with his child. At first, he was admittedly skeptical since while yes they had relations (many many times) in their three days, it had also been nearly three months ago. Wouldn't she have contacted him beforehand? But she managed to convince him and since he didn't have the funds or resources to move her to where he was staying (could a pregnant woman even fly? He really didn't want to chance it) he sold flat, took out all the money he had stashed away in a bank and beneath his floorboard, said his goodbyes to his family (Mary and Joseph he had no idea his mother could wail like that!) and took a one-way flight to England to start his new life with his new wife and soon, new daughter.
They found a nice space for a decent price (decent if he had a 9-5 job he means) and they lived their happily for about five years. He still kept up with his inventing but he worked a lot more odd jobs than he had back home and Rebecca was still a barrista but they still made sure there was clothes on their daughter's back and food on the table. He thought she was happy; she never really complained and sure sometimes he would notice a wistful look on her face but he thought that they, her family, would be enough to keep her around. He was apparently wrong since she just upped and left them when Gianna was only five. He might have been able to forgive leaving him, but he could never forgive her for just leaving their daughter. Now finding himself a single father, Celio packed up his and his daughter's meager possessions and found them a steal of a home by the sea. And when he arrived he could tell why it was indeed a "steal." It wasn't run down but it definitely needed improvement, which was something he was very good at indeed. He was later found by the people in the small community as the man who could fix just about anything and with their support and a lot of their money, he was able to open a small store where people could come and drop off the wares they needed fixing instead of doing so on his doorstep.
Years went by and then an owl, an actual owl!, came by saying that his darling Gianna was a witch! After reading everything with his daughter, and visiting the magical alley he was just as enraptured with this new place as she was. Although he just a bit saddened that she had to leave him months at a time, but it was for the best, so she could get better control of her gift after all. Plus her letters were quite amusing when she was complaining about a lack of service in the castle.
He began a relationship with a redheaded seamstress named Fiona and believed it was going well until she stopped returning his missives. He had thought the worse and just cut his loses until she came to his home severely pregnant, with twins he later found out. Now he's working with being a good father to two new babies as well as striving for a better relationship with Fiona. After a recent discussion with her best friend Nicole, a discussion he will probably remember in fear the rest of their days, Celio bought and refurbished a pearl engagement ring and asked Fiona for her hand in marriage. She thankfully said yes and they were able to have a quick and small ceremony surrounded by only their closest friends and family. Thankfully all before the new baby arrived. He would love another daughter but he's not so-secretly hoping for a boy.

■ HEADSTRONGOnce she's put her mind to it, it's going to be done, broken bones be damned. She hates when people say they're going to do something but back out at the last minute. To her, people who go back on their word are lower than scum. ■ INQUISITIVEShe loves figuring out how things work or tick and she especially loves taking things apart just to put them back together. They may not work the exact same way but that's just part of the fun. ■ SLYShe's a cunning individual who's used to getting what she wants. This may seem rather bratty and spoiled and while she's far from it, she's knows how to use her guile or even subtly manipulate into getting primarily whatever it was she wanted. ■ PATIENTIt's a trait not many have that Gia uses to her advantage. She can sit for hours working one problem or puzzle or even worse, she can sit in wait after she's been wronged planning the perfect revenge. ■ FREE THINKERIt's more that she thinks outside the box, or rather just ignores that there was such a box, than she is a "free thinker." Why would she waste brain potential imagining a box or trying to follow someone else's plans or thoughts when she could demolish it all and build or think whatever the hell she wants?! ■ NEUTRALRight and wrong, left and right, good and evil, blahblahblah it all meant the same thing to her. They were trying to box her in and make her believe and follow some "one size fits all" philosophy and she just doesn't roll that way. As far as she's concerned, every person she meets is a blank slate until they do something to raise their worth or piss her off. She pretty much has the same ideal with politics choosing to pick and choose the policies she supports rather than aligning herself with just one party or person.

CHILDHOODGianna Donati is the product of Celio Donati and Rebecca Norton lovemaking. Point blank period. Her father is an Italian inventor and had been visiting Great Britain for a convention when he met her mother who was barista at the coffee shop nearest his hotel. It wasn't really love at first sight, more lust at first sight wink but what can you do? They continued their tryst until it was time for him to return and (surprise of all surprises) he receives an e-mail from her saying she was pregnant and he was the father. She didn't make enough money to be able to fly out to Italy and he barely made enough to keep the lights on let alone fly a pregnant woman out, so he sold his small flat, took all his money from his bank and left his home and family in Italy to live with and eventually marry the woman who six and a half months later gave birth to a daughter named Gianna Shay Donati. They lived together happily (horribly in debt but happily) for about five years until tragedy struck. No one died, her mother just up and left her in the park with a note pinned to her school backpack. Her father found her there a few hours later after receiving a call from the police and they went home and never spoke of it. She found the note a few years later in her dad's desk and it basically read that she had gotten her fill of family life and wanted to travel. Why she felt the need to leave her only child in a public area instead of maybe just not picking her up from school that day. Either way, it was just her and her dad from then on. They moved out their home (he said for smaller bills, she knows it because of memories) and they ended up getting a good deal on a house near the waters. Her father opened a small repair shop and managed a small but healthy business and she got to help out whenever she could. Which was basically every day. About a year or so after her mother left odd things began to happen. She could make light bulbs light up by only touching them and she summoned a tool when it was out of her reach. On her eleventh birthday the weirdest thing yet happened in which an owl came and delivered a letter saying she's been invited to this magical boarding school. Honestly she thought it was a bunch of hooey but her dad had been intrigued, especially when the letter stated someone would come by and introduce her to this "magical world." True to the letter's word, if it could have one, a man came by a few days later to take her to get her school supplies with her dad tagging along. She was amazed at all magic could and apparently couldn't do as was her father and she was sure the Hogwarts governor (for that's what he called himself) was a bit perturbed by both of their wide eyed glee at being able to carry fire in jars without burning themselves and especially transfiguration. Potions she wasn't as interested in but she liked the concept. The only thing that sucked about this wondrous world was the lack of electricity. Anyway, the months ticked by and soon September first arrived and she was on her way to a new way of life.
SCHOOL YEARS
FIRST YEARFirst year was definitely full of surprises, which wasn't at all...surprising considering that she had literally just been thrown into this world. Still, it was rather informative and entertaining. And she even found some allies...friends. SECOND YEARIt seemed that while Lori had managed to gain them another ally in their course of castle exploration, she also managed to procure an intern of sorts from Ravenclaw. He's a bit...odd, but he's at least got a decent head on his shoulders, which is a lot more than she could say for others in her house. She also spent part of the year wondering which classes she would be taking as electives, noting that none of them also managed to point out the huge flaw in their magical world of NO FREAKING ELECTRICITY. THIRD YEARThe year rather started out to a bad start. First of all during the summer she grew these..things that were rather noticeable especially by those of the male gender. She then had a spat with her friend Carver about them on the actual train ride to school which lasted a few weeks in the beginning of the school year. She eventually apologized, even if she still denies being at fault. FOURTH YEARThis year was rather boring outside of puberty once again rearing it's ugly neanderthal head. She had unfortunately developed more than friendly feelings for a certain male friend of hers which was completely uncalled for. Just. no. FIFTH YEARIn the whirlwind of studying for her OWL's and placing bets on her best friend's love life, she actually managed to find one of her own. So far she was content with it. SIXTH YEARWas boring what with Lori making eyes at Zeph, Zeph making eyes at Lori and Carver being a general pain in her arse. Oh not that way you perv. SEVENTH YEAREqually boring, though with NEWT study sheets being literally crammed down her throat. At least she didn't fail anything.
POST GRADUATIONGia accepted (pushed herself in really) Lori's proposal to move into the flat she had bought along with herself, Carver, and oddly enough Tristan. While in the process of moving she intercepted some personal mail and discovered her identity had been stolen to create fraudulent credit cards and that the person behind it wall was her mother. She confronted Rebecca and afterwards reported her to the authorities even going as far as to get in contact with her best friend's brother for legal help. Though it was a gigantic kick in the face as far as the beginning of adulthood went, Gia figures it should be about a DEFCON 3 or 4 from now on.
Her dad finally got kicked into gear and asked Fiona to marry him, who said yes of course, but not without dropping the bombshell that she was pregnant again. They were married rather quickly in a small ceremony that only friends and family were admitted to and Gia will admit to smiling longer than her usual seventy-two seconds. She was also consulted in what to name her new sibling and gave the option for Pietro if it was a boy which her new stepmother readily agreed. She's been snickering ever since.

CHILDHOODEmiliana and her twin sister Logan were born to Fiona and Celio in June. They are well loved and adored by their entire family. Her life has been pretty uneventful as of yet. She spends a lot of time toddling after her mom and dad or bugging her siblings for attention and to be taught anything and everything. She especially loves the time she spends at the shop. She has even begun trying her hand at designing and making clothes from her mother's scrap fabrics and is learning how to sew quickly. She gets her sister to try on her clothes and photograph them. She also has a little brother named Pietro now.

HARD-WORKING xxx»» The last time in her life Fiona could afford to slack off was when she was in school; since then, she's had to constantly be on her feet, working all the time. She's gotten to the point that standing around doing nothing is unnerving to her; she can't help but feel like she should be doing something. It's hard for her to stop and relax. She takes the time to do so when she can, but it's never until everything else is done. She's been known to spend the entirety of her day off scrubbing her flat from floor to ceiling because it'd been a while since she'd 'properly cleaned.'
FRIENDLY xxx»» In spite of being somewhat slow to trust, Fiona is always happy to at least take a moment to talk to someone. She enjoys chatting with her customers, meeting new people. A day in which she sees no one but herself is a dull one; she'd much rather be out in the world interacting with others. While she doesn't often get close to the people she meets, she still takes great joy in what little time she spends with them, provided the interaction is a positive one.
PROTECTIVE xxx»» Because of what happened between her parents, Fiona developed a strong protective streak; she's quick to step in and defend the people she cares about if they're being threatened. She's also naturally suspicious of anyone they seem to be getting close to, and it can be difficult to win her approval. She would much rather chase off someone relatively harmless in an attempt to take care of her friends than allow someone who will hurt them to get close.
SINGLE-MINDED xxx»» Fiona tends to get wrapped up in things; once she's on something, it can be difficult to draw her attention away. She multi-tasks well enough, but if something is designated as being her top priority, she will obsess over it until the task is completed. This applies to both work related tasks, and personal ones. When planning her best friend's wedding, she lost a fair amount of sleep because she was staying up late going over things dozens of times to make sure everything was perfect.
PATIENT xxx»» This was a trait that did not come naturally to her, but one she forced herself to develop. Seeing how horribly the lack of patience her father held affected his relationship with her mother, even before the drinking, she realized she needed to learn to stay calm and level-headed. It also helps a fair bit to counterbalance her natural clumsiness, which is good, considering her profession. If she were the sort to move quickly through tasks without care, she'd end up sticking more customers than not.
SOFT-SPOKEN xxx»» Fiona developed a tendency to keep her head down and her mouth shut; it seemed like everything she said or did was liable to send her father off on a tirade, and she was afraid of him when he yelled. So, she learned to keep her words to herself unless she was certain they would be met with a positive reaction, or when they were directed at someone she trusts. She has many opinions, but she'd rather stay quiet most of the time to avoid conflict.
❖ xxxH I S T O R Yxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
CHILDHOOD
xxx»» Fiona's childhood was very typical; her parents, both muggles, had what to her seemed to be a perfectly normal marriage. There was some tension at times, but she always assumed it was normal for married couples to fight now and again, and they never let things escalate too far in front of her. Her mother worked as a seamstress, and taught her from a very young age. She grew up with a love for sewing and for fashion. Her father, a teacher, thought such concerns were silly, but he kept it to himself... most of the time. When she received her Hogwarts letter, her father at first thought it was a joke, and the fact that his daughter was a witch never quite set well with him. He began losing his temper often, and where before he had never raised his voice to Fiona, he now yelled at her constantly.
SCHOOL YEARS
xxx»» She grew to love her time away at school; the tension at home grew worse and worse, and she rather guiltily found herself hating to return home for the holidays and Summers. Her father developed a drinking problem and lost his job. He blamed Fiona's mother, who he had decided must have cheated on him with someone else. He didn't believe it was possible for two non-magical people to have a magical child, and thought that the only possibility was that Christine had slept with a wizard and gotten pregnant with his b*****d, then duped Stuart into raising it as his own. Fiona discovered when she was thirteen that, when she wasn't home, her father had begun taking out his anger on her mother while he was drunk. Things came to a head when she was in her fourth year; her mother picked her up from the station alone for the holidays, and informed her that they weren't going to their house, but rather to a flat Christine had rented in one of the cheaper parts of London. Fiona worried about her mother constantly, but tried not to let it get in the way of everything. Reasoning that she was at least free of her father, she told herself that Christine would be fine, and tried to enjoy herself. Her idea of 'enjoying herself' meant a lot of skipping lessons if she thought she could get away with it, and a lot of day-dreaming. Luckily, she was reasonably smart, and performed well on exams in spite of skipping lessons on a fairly regular basis.
ADULTHOOD
xxx»» After graduating, Fiona decided that she wanted to work as a seamstress like her mother, and got taken on as an apprentice at Madam Malkin's. She worked there for a few years before the owner decided she wanted to retire, at which time she left the company in Fiona's capable hands. Since then, Fiona has remodeled the shop and found herself focusing perhaps a bit too much on her work. She didn't have much in the way of a social life for a good while, with her best (and only) friend having a new baby and husband to look after. She dabbled in dating, and even had a long-term relationship, but unfortunately things ended rather abruptly between them. It was nothing dramatic, he just had other things going on in his life, and traveled a lot for work anyway. She found afterwards that she wasn't sure if she really missed him per se, since she'd not gotten to see him much to begin with, or missed the idea of being in a relationship.
xxx»» Eventually her schedule filled up with training new employees; after having run the shop mostly on her own for years aside from the occasional temp worker, she suddenly had three full-time employees and one Summer worker, all apprenticing under her. She focused her efforts on nurturing their skills and running her shop. She didn't bother much with dating after that point, not having much time for it and not wanting to chance another depressing break up. However, she eventually happened to meet a man, Celio Donati, in a shop at Diagon. The interaction was a little odd, but she found she'd rather liked him. Still, it was a surprise when he came into her shop a few months later, looking for alterations on his daughter's uniform. It shouldn't have been, since anyone with a magical child found their way to her shop eventually, but she was caught somewhat off-guard. They struck up an odd sort of friendship, went on a date or two, and eventually he invited on her on a (she assumed romantic) weekend getaway. The trip was excellent, up until a month or so later when she missed her period.
xxx»» Not wanting to trap Celio into an awkward situation, Fiona determined to handle the pregnancy herself, and cut off contact from the man. It took a lot of badgering from Nicole to convince her that was the worst idea she'd ever had, and eventually she turned up on a rather stunned Celio's doorstep, five months pregnant give or take a week, and explained the situation. They resolved to handle things better between them, and committed to their relationship and their new family. It ended up being twins, two girls they named Emiliana and Logan. Fiona moved into the Donati home and rented the flat above her shop out for some extra income, and began the struggle of balancing her work and home lives, something she'd never really had to do. Of course, as soon as she thought she'd gotten it all figured out, she was pregnant again. This time, of course, she was somewhat prepared, having been pregnant once before. Plus, she wasn't doing it alone for the second go around, since she was already with Celio. Still, she was somewhat surprised when the Italian proposed to her (and suspected that Nicole had something to do with it). That didn't stop her from saying yes. The couple married in a small, private ceremony, the guest list consisting only of his family and her best friend's.

■ FUN-LOVINGLogan loves to have fun. She is constantly going along with her sister in whatever it is that they get into, usually some sort of chaos will ensue. She loves listening to music and trying her best to dance. ■ AFFECTIONATELogan is an extremely emotional person, and she usually projects these emotions onto other people. Most of the time, she's happy, and will want to express her happiness by hugging everyone and everything in sight. ■ LEVEL HEADEDLogan is usually very calm and collected about most things. She hardly ever cries. If she ever does cry, though, it's because something seriously upset her or perhaps she was alone for more than a few minutes. ■ SYMPATHETICLogan is rather understanding, and tends to pick up on other's feelings easily. When her sister is upset, she will mimic her twin and become upset at the very thought of her sister being upset. ■ QUIETLogan is a quiet child, especially when placed next to her sister, who never shuts up. Despite this, once you break into her shell she is much more outgoing than she seems. Her quietness is generally from the fact that her sister will talk over her at all times anyways so she feels no need to speak. ■ MANIPULATIVEDespite being quiet, and more a background to her sister's show, Logan is very good at getting what she wants. She can twist her own words and her sisters words to get exactly what she wants or needs out of a situation. She can even get her sister in trouble for things that she actually did.

CHILDHOODLogan was born to Celio Donati and Fiona McKinney, along with her twin sister, Emiliana, after a crazy night between the two parents. The twins were complete accidents, but are loved nonetheless. Her life has been rather uneventful since then. She spends a large ammount of time with her sister in her mother's shop trying on clothes or modeling them for her mother as well as trying on the simple clothes her sister is able to produce. She can't wait to go to school. She now has a little brother as well, Pietro.

MISCHIEVOUS xxx»» Pietro likes to think that he learned at the feet of a master. Specifically, his oldest sister Gia. He always felt exceptionally close to her, despite their age gap, because she was the one who picked his name. She also seemed to enjoy spending time with him, and so he inherited her penchant for what he likes to call "impish behavior." Admittedly, he doesn't have much in the way of restraint, and sometimes doesn't consider the consequences of his pranks. He's sort of a live-in-the-moment kind of guy. As such, sometimes his pranks cause a little more harm than he might've actually intended.
PLAYFUL xxx»» Pietro doesn't like to be bored. If left to his own devices for too long, he will devise some sort of nonsense game to amuse himself. If he can get others involved in his nonsense, the better. He has trouble taking anything seriously, which can contribute to his inability to know where to draw the line. He figures a little recklessness is a necessary component of enjoying oneself. He's acquired many an injury over his short years on this earth, and doesn't see them as anything to worry about. If he has a good story to tell, it was totally worth it.
CREATIVE xxx»» Pietro is a very outside-the-box thinker. He likes to solve puzzles, usually in ways other than those that they are meant to be solved in. He's got a habit of taking the long way around, just to see if there are other ways to accomplish the task at hand. It doesn't really matter to him if it's more work, because he likes knowing he came up with a new way of doing something. He's the physical embodiment of "you solved the equation the wrong way, but somehow got the right answer."
BOOK-SMART xxx»» One could be forgiven for thinking that Pietro isn't one to crack a book, given his usual behavior. But the truth is, he loves to read. He just does so more quickly than most people, a skill he taught himself so that he could squeeze as much reading and running into his days as possible. He isn't picky about what he reads, either, having been found with his nose in everything from YA novels (which he frequently laughs at, because teenagers) to physics textbooks (which he frequently laughs at, because magic). He's got a lot of random knowledge tucked into his brain, which is quite helpful with his prank-pulling and puzzle-solving.
FUNNY xxx»» Pietro likes to make people laugh. He's not one to shy away from a chance to crack a joke, even if it's at someone's expense. Even if it's at his own expense, which is how he justifies it when it's someone else he's picking on. He sees humor as a tool to improve people's lives and to make them like him. He's not overly concerned with being liked, exactly, but he does know life is easier when you are. So he'll do his best to make people laugh, even if it means making himself look stupid for a bit. Or someone else, although he'll usually try to fall on the sword himself before resorting to that.
FRIENDLY xxx»» Pietro tries to make a good impression. He likes people, for the most part, so it's no trouble to him to go out of his way to be friendly. Not nice, exactly, because he's far too snarky and far too ill-behaved to be nice. But he likes chatting with people, listening to them talk about themselves. He's easy enough to get along with if you're not the sort to hold a grudge, and admittedly if you are he'll usually go out of his way to try and make it up to you. He doesn't take offense to much, unless it's something absolutely heinous. His moral standing is pretty grey, and he tends to judge people by how they treat him, rather than looking at their actions at large. He's not a people-person, exactly, but he's pretty good at pretending to be one.

CHILDHOOD xxx»» Pietro is the youngest child of four, and the only boy in his family (other than his father, of course). His parents weren't exactly trying to have another child, but they had long since come to the conclusion that any attempts to prevent such were going to be futile. At the very least, they had plenty of help raising him, between his three older sisters and myriad of family friends. His childhood was a happy one, if a bit boring for his taste, and he never missed an opportunity to try and make it more interesting. Particularly when his oldest sister Gia was around, since he liked her the best and always wanted to impress and amuse her.
