xxxBACKSTORYxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
EARLY CHILDHOOD Emeric was born to an UK residing french family. Even though rich he was never spoiled. He was taught to work hard to get what you want he was quite the magical lad showing his magic at 5 when he seemingly repaired a beloved stuffed animal that got badly ripped and would be fine when he fell off high playground equipment. When he was 11 he got a hogwarts letter and was excited to go.
SCHOOL YEARS Emeric arrived as a bright eyed curious child and was sorted into Hufflepuff. He was quite the popular boy and was even a player for quidditch. He was also prefect and head boy but even being popular he longed for something new. He was very studious and did great on his O.W.Ls and N.E.W.Ts. He decided upon graduation to take a year to travel.
POST-GRADUATION In his year of travel he received a head injury from muggle auto accident that gave him bad vertigo when flying thus making pro quidditch a bad idea. During his travels Emeric met a Veela named Seweryna. Sure he was attracted by her veela charm but she gave him the time of day as he actually wanted to get to know her. She loved his accepting kind heart and he loved her independent fiery personality. She accompanied him on his travel eventually returning to his home. The two eventually married an a while later found they were going to have a child. He got a job working in the Department of Magical Games and Sports and worked his way up in management. Emeric dove head first into trying to be the best dad for his son Ferdinand and provide for his family even with the family fortune he rather earn his money. He may have accidentally left out some of his horror movies leading to his son's fear of clowns (not his proudest moment). He strived to have Ferdinand to be raised how he was.
He was proud when he sent his son off to school and was also sorted into Hufflepuff. He never let Ferdie know he was worried about how he be treated as Ferdie was considered half breed, but was relieved his son was well loved. Ferdie getting into the dating scene was a bit rough for Emeric. He wanted to be sure his son would find someone who looked past his half veela charm and appreciate his weird child. Overall he trusts he raised him well enough to be a happy adult.

xxxBACKSTORYxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
EARLY CHILDHOODFerdinand was born into a wealthy French descended family from the British Isles. His Dad loved to travel the world, on one such trip he met Ferdinand's Mom, who was a Veela, the family being open-minded was more than happy to welcome her into the family. They were married and Ferdinand was born a year later. It was obvious that Ferdinand inherited his mom's good looks but took after his dad in his personality. He grew up with plenty of money but his parent aimed to keep him from being spoiled. While he would have stuff bought for him he would have to do something to earn it. Even though he wasn't spoiled he has only known about his own world. He hopes to go to Hogwarts soon like his Dad did.
SCHOOL YEARS First year was great Ferdie made a friend Rhett who is also like him in the fact they were only half human and Theo who loves to cook. He also joined the newspaper club. As he grew he became more popular and even ended up with regular fan mail. He would find his love in his later years with a Gryffindor a year below him, Elizabet Amsel. He was glad to find someone to love in spite of his veela charm. He worked his way up in the newspaper club and even become editor in chief. During his later school years, he got a new brother! His parents adopted a strange but cool brother with a missing eye.
Upon graduation Ferdie took some time to be a big brother while being an Inquirer for the Daily Prophet.

xxx𝓟𝒆𝓻𝓼𝓸𝓷𝓪𝓵𝓲𝓽𝔂xxx xxxxx⇾Bɪᴢᴀʀʀᴇ: Eion has some very weird quirks. He has odd collections and habits, but his strange ways of thinking are by far the strongest. His mind works in mysterious ways, but he always seems to have something to say, if not necessarily what one would anticipate.
xxxxx⇾Iᴍᴀɢɪɴᴀᴛɪᴠᴇ: Eion tends to live in his head, as it's a world he can create without pain, sadness, or fear. Unfortunately, this leads to some clashes in reality when he's confronted with hard truths.
xxxxx⇾Aᴡᴋᴡᴀʀᴅ: Socially, Eion has always been incredibly awkward. Be it the choices of topic he starts or his odd replies, he's never quite mastered talking to people without seeming like a total weirdo.
xxxxx⇾Hᴜᴍʙʟᴇ: If ever congratulated, Eion is quick to give recognition to someone else. He never likes being in the spotlight good or bad, but he's more used to criticism, which he takes and accepts.
xxxxx⇾Sᴛᴜᴅɪᴏᴜs: Eion loves learning, be it from books, TV, or other sources. He does his best to always study whatever he can get his hands on, if only to sate a natural curiosity.
xxxxx⇾Sᴇʟꜰ-Lᴏᴀᴛʜɪɴɢ: While he's always civil and polite to everyone around him, there is one person Eion hates. Himself. After all he's been through, it's left him feeling dirty and disgusted with his own body. He can't stand people complimenting his physical form, and will often break down at serious insults to his person.

xxx𝒞𝒽𝒾𝓁𝒹𝒽𝑜𝑜𝒹xxx Sheldon Eion Linton was born to Felix and Tabitha Linton. He had a happy, healthy childhood until the age of three when his father tragically passed away due to an unexplained illness. Of course, Tabitha never went in depth on the topic, afraid of scaring her son. Shortly after Felix's death, Tabitha remarried to a man named Russel. Sheldon absolutely hated Russel, but unfortunately, his mom needed the money he made (which wasn't much, mind).
Unfortunately for Sheldon, Russel had a nasty temper and a horrible drinking habit, leading him to hit Sheldon a lot. He also touched him inappropriately whenever Tabitha left the boys alone together. Over the few years he was stuck with the man, Russel escalated to more than just touching, leading Sheldon to hate himself so much he couldn't even bear to call himself by name. That's when his preference to go by his middle name took over.
One night when Russel was especially drunk, he got in a fight with Tabitha (something she'd rarely seen as he preferred to take out his anger on Sheldon instead). Eion, being used to this torment from the man tried to stand up for his mother, but ended up getting pretty badly wounded. The next thing he knew, he was waking up in a muggle hospital with several injuries caused by both fists and a knife, including his left eye being missing. Russel was arrested for attempted murder, but the court wouldn't let Eion just go back to his mother, especially because she refused to say Russel had ever hurt her son before. While they were apart, Tabitha began sending her son several trinkets, including a glass eye she'd had made to match his other so he wouldn't be "freaky". This piqued an interest in him, and he asked for more and more in whatever colors and patterns she could find. Surely he was going back home eventually, right?
Sadly, this wasn't the case, and after a year-long battle, Tabitha was forced to give up her son as a Ward of the State. A teary reunion ended with him being taken away from the only home he'd ever known. He was left by the suit-wearing men at an orphanage, with only a backpack, his eye-collection, and a suitcase of his clothes. He was even forced to switch to a brand new school, supposedly for a "fresh start". Unfortunately, all the damage done stuck with him, and he quickly discovered his own self-loathing at having ever been touched and not brave enough to stop the torture.
Despite his feelings that no one would ever love him, Eion managed to make two best friends at Wool's, Reggie and Max. On top of that, he met a grown up with a love of horror movies. Soon enough, Eion's life was flipped over. He found out Reggie became a werewolf, then he was asked about being adopted. He accepted and said some teary goodbyes before stepping out of Wool's to begin a new stage of his life.
He had been adopted into the Delacroix family, who loved him like their own. Even when he got kicked out of school for accidentally exploding the science lab, they found a solution in homeschooling. It was good, since Eion got bullied a lot in school. Unfortunately, that led to a disagreement when his Hogwarts Letter came in, the boy begging to be allowed to stay home. Of course, the answer had been a solid no. He went to get his wand, the whole process taking forever as he went through several wands before one finally cooperated with him.
xxx𝒮𝒸𝒽𝑜𝑜𝓁 𝒴𝑒𝒶𝓇𝓈xxx Not much happened for Eion in the first year of schooling. In the second, he was able to better make friends, especially with Max and Reggie joining in. Over the summer following, his parents surprised him with the best gift of all, a legal name change. No longer would he be Sheldon, but now he was Eion Marcellin, which was honestly the best gift of all. Eion ended up making a ton of friends, and he and Yukon took control of the Daily Dragon, colloquially called the Rising Star Duo. After OWLs, he was worried about disappointing his family, but they were all really proud of how well he'd done.
That next year, Eion finally overcame his nerves and asked Moira Payne on a date. She agreed, and the two of them quickly became a couple. It seemed most of their friend group was coupling up. With help from all his friends and teachers, Eion managed to get pretty good grades on his NEWTs, just in time to graduate with his friends.
xxx𝒜𝒹𝓊𝓁𝓉𝒽𝑜𝑜𝒹xxx As an adult, Eion started out by getting a job at the tattoo and piercing studio in Diagon Alley. Who knew you could win over a boss by popping your eye out? He managed to survive the apprenticeship, and eventually got his own chair at the studio. He put in extra hours to save up for a place to live with Moira, but apparently he hadn't needed to. She had a flat above her family's fortune shop, and the duo moved there.
It was there that he worked with his friends to plan the best dinner possible, where he asked Moira to marry him. She graciously agreed. While they were working on plans, Eme and Sena had a Christmas dinner, complete with a friend from Eme's work. When they went, Eion was startled to see that the coworker in mention was his birth mom. She, apparently, was quite surprised too. About a month later, she left her daughter, Amilyka, on the steps of Eme and Sena's house, along with a letter saying now that Russel was gone, she'd leave too. Luckily, Mika was adopted by the Delacroix family, and Eion got to have a little sister in his life.
The next summer, Eion got to be best man at Reggie and Aspen's wedding, then that fall, he and Moira got to marry as well. They chose to wed in her family's cemetery, and they also hosted a mighty large Samhain feast, complete with a bonfire (that he lit, with a flaming arrow!) They then honeymoon-ed in France for a week, then came home to their normal lives. About a month later, they found out they were expecting.... twins. How exciting, even though he was constantly worried over Moira.

xxx𝒞𝒽𝒾𝓁𝒹𝒽𝑜𝑜𝒹xxx Elisabet was born early in a hospital in Ireland to her mother, Anja. Due to a rare genetic trait through Anja's family, the baby was born missing the lower half of her left arm, just below the elbow. When her mother discovered this, she refused the baby, giving the hospital staff the name of the father. By the time Anja was released, Elisabet's father, Terrence, was there to claim her. He chose her name, signing with the staff to be her legal parent. Tests confirmed her was her father, and since Anja had given her up, the baby was released into his care.
Over the years, Elisabet and Terrence grew close, the girl glad to have him. He always encouraged her creativity, helping her with whatever wild idea she had at the time. When she was six, a doctor helped design and build her a prosthetic arm, delighted to watch the girl adapt. As she got better at using it, her creativity flowed to it, and the girl used the computer with help from her dad to design other ideas for her missing hand. One of them was a squirt gun for the summertime. When she turned eleven, a man came to their door and told her she was magic, which astounded both members of the small family. When told she was going to a special boarding school, she was hesitant. Luckily, her dad was able to hype her up for the school, leaving her excited (if a bit nervous).
xxx𝒮𝒸𝒽𝑜𝑜𝓁 𝒴𝑒𝒶𝓇𝓈xxx In her first year, she made best friends with a girl named Cady, someone that thought her robo-arm was super cool. She also discovered she was pretty good at magic, and decided to embrace her difference until she can figure out how to make her arm magic-compatible. Through the years she worked hard, coming up with invention ideas in between all her schoolwork. In sixth year she started dating Ferdie, whom she's very glad for, since he's a sweet guy. She graduated with good grades, which made her proud. xxx𝒜𝒹𝓊𝓁𝓉𝒽𝑜𝑜𝒹xxx After she graduated, Bet helped at her dad's shop to earn a bit extra income. Ferdie proposed while they were on a nice trip, then the two got married shortly thereafter. For their wedding, the Delacroix family helped the newlyweds buy a house, which Bet was extremely grateful. The only request she had, to be close to her dad's house, was granted, since Terrence was not able to apparate on command.
Shortly after they were married, they were pregnant with their first child, who they named Juliette Corinne. She was a perfect little angel, and they couldn't have asked for better. A couple years later came baby number 2, who decided to scare them in the ultrasounds by never showing them his hands. Luckily, Mercurio Leopold was born with ten perfect fingers and toes. The couple decided that would be all, especially as the kids got a bit older and Jules decided they weren't a daughter, but still their lovely child. Unfortunately, accidents happen, and they were pregnant with number 3. To avoid any future mistakes, Ferdie had a little snip to prevent future babies. They welcomed their daughter, Elara Catherine. They worked to raise their kids to be independent, and luckily, Jules and Merc rather liked spending time in the shop with Bet. She finally perfected a wizarding version of a smartwatch, using magic mirrors and a network of being able to contact anyone else with the mirror. It helped to bring in a ton of money to their little family, as well as a bit of fame.

xxx Σℂ PERSONALITY⊱∫xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx CALM Juliette generally isn’t fussy. As long as someone is nearby, she will roll around and play by herself. If there is nothing or no one though, screaming ensues.
SPUNKY Although usually quite mellow, Juliette's more spirited side comes out when playing with her parents. She likes when her parents emote as they tell stories and does her best to emote along. She's also picked up animatedly commenting at anything going on the television and fidgets with whatever is nearby. Also chocolate. Juliette will climb anywhere and do anything to get to the chocolate.
CURIOUS Juliette is very interested in what everything tastes like. Or feels like. Or sounds like. Or looks like. If it has come into her world, it must be investigated.
TENACIOUS Juliette likes learning new things for the sake of learning, and can often be seen studying her parents or fellow students for ways to improve.
GOOD NATURED Polite and patient herself, Juliette tries to see the good and lovely in every person and situation.

xxx Σℂ BACKSTORY⊱∫xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Σℂ ⊱∫EARLY CHILDHOOD Juliette is the first child of Ferdie and Elisabet Delacroix. As a toddler, she spent most of the day "assisting" mummy from her play pen, where she happily drew new inventions, "typed" articles on a play typewriter, and took naps on Speck, the family's Australian Shepherd. In the evenings she loved it when Ferdie picked her up to play, or when they watched game shows together. Her favorite toys include mummy's arm and daddy's typewriter. The most exciting day of her life was the day she climbed on the kitchen counter in an attempt to find and liberate chocolate from the jar it was trapped in.
When she was three, her younger brother Mercurio was born. Juliette is a little disappointed he doesn't do anything but sleep, but she'll take her "work" into his room sometimes to share and keep him company. Maybe Merc can learn in his sleep.

xxx𝓟𝒆𝓻𝓼𝓸𝓷𝓪𝓵𝓲𝓽𝔂xxx xxxxx⇾Sᴋɪᴛᴛɪsʜ: Thanks to her upbringing, Mika is extremely wary of new people, situations, and even animals. Anything that might be vaguely threatening must therefore be avoided. Unfortunately she seems to meet new people all the time.
xxxxx⇾Cʟɪɴɢʏ: For the few people she trusts, Mika holds them close. Those people she sees as an icon of protection, and if she stays close, they’ll keep her safe. Well... usually.
xxxxx⇾Gᴇɴᴛʟᴇ: Mika is determined to take care of the world around her. She uses careful hands and a loving heart to take care of everything she can. Part of this manifests in a joy with fixing whatever she is able.
xxxxx⇾Cʀᴇᴀᴛɪᴠᴇ: Mika is incredibly smart, but she usually portrays this in art, photos, and sometimes other mediums. She loves taking broken things and assembling them in new ways, creating a new future.
xxxxx⇾Iɴᴛᴇʟʟɪɢᴇɴᴛ: Mika has a crazy detailed memory, one which she doesn’t fully comprehend yet. She translates everything she remembers into knowledge for other fields, often spouting off facts she finds interesting.
xxxxx⇾Cᴀᴜᴛɪᴏᴜs: “Trust your gut” applies very heavily to Mika, who has gotten really good at noticing warning signs for potential danger. Sure, she doesn’t really understand that she’s using context clues from her past, but she is highly perceptive.

xxx𝒞𝒽𝒾𝓁𝒹𝒽𝑜𝑜𝒹xxx Amilyka was born to Tabitha Linton and Russel Cambrie on a blustery March morning. It seemed her life was born into upheaval, with shady people coming and going. Her only real constant was her mom, who worked tirelessly to take care of her and keep her safe. Amilyka didn’t begin to speak until she was two, but once she did, words and thoughts seemed to flow effortlessly from her. Tabby was convinced her child was just waiting and preparing for whenever she was ready to talk. As Mika grew into a toddler, Tabby tried her best to educate her, teach her all kinds of things. A big portion of Mika’s education, unfortunately, involved how to hide bruises and lying to various hospital workers, thanks to Russel’s violence.
After a chance encounter with her mama's boss' family, everything turned upside-down for Mika. Mama found her "missing" son and started getting really sad a lot, Papa got even more angry all the time... then finally, peace. Everything quieted down. Mama said Russel must have taken off, but it seemed like everything in the whole world was brighter, happier, and safe. Mama stayed home from work for a while, packing everything into boxes, using magic to fit everything. All of Mika's things went into a dusty old trunk, including her favorite toys... then one day, Mama brought her back to her boss' fancy house, had some grown-up words, then kissed Mika atop the head before poofing away. Mika waited for days, crying with these new people, Eme and Sena... before finally accepting that her mama wasn't coming back. With a little help from her very brave big brother, Mika agreed to be adopted and officially part of the Delacroix family.
After fully moving into the Delacroix family, Mika felt all the love she'd ever craved. She had two big brothers, and both loved hanging out with her. Plus, Ferdie and Bet had kids too, all about Mika's age! It was super awesome. Eion's lovvie, Moira, was super nice too, and showed Mika how to read the future. Plus, Eion and Moira's friends were all really nice to her. She got to go to summer camp with them all, which was pretty cool.
Then, Eion and Moira got to be married, and Mika was asked to be the flower girl. She was part of the fanciest wedding ever, which was pretty cool. They then had a spooky bonfire, and big brother Uriel was so kind as to hold her hands and keep her safe from the bad spirits. She even met a ghostie! A few months later, and Eion and Moira announced they were going to be a mommy and daddy too, which was lovely.

xxxPERSONALITYxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
WHIMSICAL Moira is the type of person that prefers to play to the beat of her own drum, so to speak. She can sometimes be unpredictable in her actions, often making her choices simply by how she’s feeling on a particular day. She also has been said to have a flare for dramatics.
INSIGHTFUL People-watching has always been a beloved pastime for Moira. She’s always been interested in the psychology of human behavior and as such, she has learned to get a pretty decent read on people and their emotional wellbeing through their speech, mannerisms, and body language. A useful skill for problem-solving and fortune telling alike, but mostly she likes to just play guessing games with others and watch their expressions when she manages to guess what they’re feeling well enough to strike a nerve. As a seer she is fully aware she will never know everything, but it’s fun when she can fool people into thinking she might.
MORBID Moira’s classmates in primary school often avoided her due to her fascination with the macabre. Having been raised in a funeral home, she finds a certain beauty in death just as one would with life. Why is dying such a big deal, anyway? It’s all part of the great cycle. It probably didn’t help her case that she was so fond of the tarot and spiders, either. She was quick to gain a reputation as “creepy” amongst her peers, which was perfectly fine with her--if judging her was what made them feel better about their dull little lives, so be it.
IMPISH Like her birth mother, Moira has been known to have a hell of a malicious streak. She enjoys toying with people and sometimes likes to cause trouble just to see what happens. If she feels she's been betrayed, she will set out to get even.
MANIPULATIVE Moira likes to get her way, one way or another. She’s not above resorting to trickery to get want she wants. Although she prefers to maintain a reputation for honesty and refuses to resort to blatant lies, she doesn’t see a problem with twisting the truth a little if it means she can get someone to do something for her benefit.
POISED A calm and collected sort, Moira takes pride in having a strong hold over her emotions. She was brought up by her mother to maintain a ladylike disposition--to be polite, dignified, and confident in her actions. As a child she of course has moments where her emotions get the best of her, but she makes a point to keep those moments of weakness private and behind closed doors.
LIKES ❥ The solemn quiet of the cemetery. ❥ Cakes and sweets, but mostly cake. She'll go to any event so long as there's cake. ❥ Lace ❥ Herbal teas with plenty of honey. ❥ Snow ❥ Anything that falls under the category of "creepy crawlies". Her favorites are spiders and scorpions.
DISLIKES ❥ Crowds/cramped spaces ❥ Black coffee. It's bitter and horrid. Please pass the milk and sugar. ❥ Gardening is a trial. Everything she touches has a tendency to wither--lucky for her, most of her friends have green thumbs to come to her rescue. ❥ Excessively noisy people. How obnoxious. ❥ Guns. Water guns, wooden guns, pellet guns, gun-guns. All guns, and anything resembling the noise of a gunshot.
STRENGTHS ❥ Self-assured ❥ Cunning
WEAKNESSES ❥ She's rather detached from the world in general. ❥ A woman of many secrets.
DESIRES ❥ To carry on the legacy of Madame Ursula. ❥ To enjoy a (relatively) peaceful life with those she cherishes.
FEARS ❥ To do something inherently evil. She is afraid of the possibility of doing something unspeakable that she may not be able to come back from. She is afraid if she does this, she will lose herself, and everyone who ever claimed to love her. ❥ That she'll one day foresee another tragic prophecy; yet another that she will be helpless to prevent. ❥ Claustrophobic. She is afraid of confinement and the associated feeling of helplessness. ❥ Dogs. She's afraid to be bit.
xxxBACKSTORYxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
EARLY CHILDHOOD Moira Payne (Born Moira King) was the aftermath of a rocky breakup between muggle Emily King and half-blood squib Conall Drake. The two had met working together in weddings (she a planner and he a caterer) and while they had initially hit it off in a whirlwind romance, Emily’s erratic behavior turned out to be too much for Conall to handle. Out of spite, Emily hadn’t informed Conall of his daughter until she was nearly walking. Once he knew, he demanded a relationship with his daughter and it was all downhill from there in custody battles. In the end--with the use of dubious resources--Emily had won the case and Conall was given only a few hours of supervised visits a month.
Moira’s time with her mother was filled with either eerie silence or fierce discipline. Emily hadn’t the patience or desire to properly care for a child, leaving much of her frustrations vented at her daughter for throwing her life off the path she’d wanted. Yet, despite those feelings, she was selfish and hadn’t wanted to give her only daughter away to who would have been a loving father. Emily only became more frustrated at the strange behaviors exhibited by Moira as a child. She would often take her daughter’s toys or sippy cup away and set them out of reach, only to turn around and find Moira had miraculously gotten a hold of them yet again. Although Emily couldn’t explain the phenomenon, Conall had managed to catch Moira in the act during one of his visits and realized she was a witch like his father before him. Once again the custody battle commenced as Conall felt Moira would be in better hands with him than Emily, who would no doubt react negatively to Moira’s magic once she caught on. Moira’s mother managed to win again.
When Moira was 4, her father tried to take her away. Her relationship with the man had been much better than with Emily--Moira loved her daddy, he was funny and much kinder than mummy--so it hadn’t been a difficult task. However, the police had managed to get a hold of them before they even managed to flee from York, and back to square one it was… Except this time was even worse, as Emily put out a restraining order and told Moira she wouldn’t be seeing her father again. Moira, upset by the news, threw a tantrum that sent her stuffed animals flying and scared her mother senseless. After a phone call with Conall, Emily was finally filled in on Moira’s magical lineage. Conall begged her to let him help, to which she replied by promptly hanging up.
Moira recalled just a few more of those phone calls over the months: questions about what was considered ‘normal’, yelling, the slamming of phones, and then a long time-out in her room. It all came to a head on June 23, 2039 when her dad had come for her once and for all. Emily ordered Moira to hide in the closet while she dialled the police as Conall--who sounded rather off to her--beat on the front door and yelled obscenities at Emily, demanding he be given his daughter. He sounded angry. Moira, with a gnawing feeling in her stomach, told her mother to hide with her, or he would hurt her. Emily responded by telling her to shut up and slamming the closet door. The following half hour had been loud: Connal made it inside. There was yelling, screaming, sounds of glasses breaking. Moira quietly obeyed her mother and watched as much as she could from behind the door slats. Eventually, Moira heard sirens. Then a loud bang. And another. Her mother collapsed on the ground, and Moira could faintly make out the color red. It wasn’t until years later that Moira had been properly informed that her father had shot her mother, and them himself upon the arrival of the police. She was orphaned.
A brief period of time was spent at Wool’s Orphanage, where Moira had become acquainted with fellow orphans. It wasn’t long however before she was adopted by a kind couple: Theopolis Payne, a halfblood and former Ravenclaw, and Aveline Payne (Nee Dupont), an American muggleborn witch from Ilvermorny, co-owners of Payne Funeral Home and & Mortuary in Winchester, England. As it turned out, Moira’s new adoptive grandmother was also a seer and had been quick to take her under her wing.
Although she’d never had much in the way of friends--the local children thought her living situation and morbid comments were positively creepy--Moira loved her new life as a Payne, often finding herself spending time amongst the graves and ghosts that resided in their cemetery. She managed to acquaint herself with a wizard boy in her class, Nimbus Siddall, who seemed as alienated as she was--something about a rumor she hadn’t cared to learn. They weren’t exactly friends, but more-so companions who sat together at lunch and vented their grievances against the muggles in their grade. He didn’t seem to mind that she would often sneak her pet tarantula to school, so that was a plus.
When she wasn’t at home, Moira often found herself at her grandmother Ursula’s fortune telling shop in the slums of Winchester. There were shady characters about, absolutely, but Moira very much enjoyed the stories they had to tell and her grandmother was quite the character. It was during one of her visits that she encountered a boy her age named Wren. The two hit it off and he managed to take a place as Moira’s favorite source of company.
SCHOOL YEARS ❥FIRST YEAR Moira found that she quite liked attending a magical institution. It was certainly more entertaining than muggle school. Finally, she would be in the same classes as her dear friend Wren, and even her former classmate Nimbus was joining. However, much to her surprise, the only people she had to call friends happened to have a rather bitter history. She loved the drama.
For the most part, Moira kept to herself. It seemed she was still a little on the creepier side even for a hoard of wizard kids. She didn't mind her roommates. As the year progressed, she found herself spending more time with Aspen Hill in particular—mostly out of association, since she too seemed to have befriended the utter disasters that were Wren and Nimbus.
She liked to spend time in the Astronomy Tower when the class was empty. The views of the stars were spectacular, and it was a pleasant spot to meditate and reconnect with the astral plane. It was there, on a cold Winter's night during a meteor shower, that Moira met one Sheldon "Eion" Delacroix. He was a rather strange boy, but that suited her just fine. She was, after all, a rather strange girl herself. They talked for a while, and he even let her tell him his fortune.
It was over Winter break that her parents told her she had a baby sibling on the way. Moira had been adopted because her parents had a difficult time conceiving, and had been trying for years. Though it would have been understandable for her to be apprehensive about her status as an adopted child, Moira wasn't worried in the least. Her mother and father reassured her how much she was loved, and she was looking forward to have a little brother or sister to guide. When she wasn't with her grandmother or visiting with Wren that Summer, she spent much of it keeping an eye on her mother. After all, her mother was bringing life into the world! Moira wanted to be as helpful as she could.
❥SECOND YEAR Moira realized it was unreasonable to hope her mother would have the baby premature, but she couldn't help it. It was a complete tragedy that she wasn't able to be home for the birth, but at least this year she was permitted to bring her very best friend, Rosie the Tarantula, to Hogwarts with her. Her dorm mates did not much approve, but Moira didn't care one bit. Rosie was just as much a person as any of them and deserved respect. How could Aspen even think to be threatened, anyway? Rosie wore a flower for goddess' sake. As obsessed with plants she was, she should love her.
There was a girl in her house the year above her, Rhea Lane. Moira detested her. She was much too happy for her liking, and had a sickening infatuation with Wren's cousin August, who... Moira may have also been infatuated with. But at least she had the class to be subtle about it. Rhea was all over him, clinging stubbornly like a little shadow, all the while pretending like she cared about Moira and insisting on keeping an eye out for her. Needless kindness like that would get her no where in the world, and Moira thought it best to teach her that lesson herself, building one small insecurity at a time.
She further bonded with Eion, to the point she might consider him a friend. He also seemed to be spending more time with her little group of friends, as did Yukon Knolle.
Uriel grew so quickly. He was but a tiny thing over Christmas, barely able to keep his head up, but by the Summer he was crawling and taking his first steps. There may have been an incident where Moira and Wren were supposed to be watching Uriel, and he crawled into an open grave. Thank the stars, he somehow wasn't hurt, and Nimbus and Eion happened to be passing by to come to the rescue... And fall in themselves. It was quite entertaining.
❥THIRD YEAR The worst happened: Wren's horrible, evil cat, Dunce, ate her beloved Rosie. How could she? After all the treats, all those chin scratches, and this is how she repays her kindness? Wren was hardly comforting. Moira couldn't remember the last time she had cried. It was Eion that found her, and helped her to feel better. Moira advocated for Dunce's execution ever since.
Tensions were rising with Rhea Lane, and Nimbus, kind-hearted as could be despite that rough exterior, was firmly not on Moira's side. He wanted her to do better—some friend he was. At least Wren enjoyed her intervening. Speaking of Wren and Nim, this bitter rivalry of theirs was starting to grow stale, and neither one of them would fess up what the problem was. It was getting to be a hassle. Something had to give eventually, didn't it?
❥FOURTH YEAR It was during the Winchester's annual Christmas party that Moira had her first prophecy. She was sitting with Aria Siddall and little Uriel one moment, and then the next, flashes of a grim future flew before her eyes. A story of bloodshed, of darkness, of fire, of unity. It felt like only seconds. It felt like an eternity. Her sense of self was gone, as if she were possessed, and whatever words she spoke did not belong to her. Whatever was said, she didn't recall once she came to... But Aria did. She'd never seen such a grave expression on that innocent face before. Moira wondered endlessly what her prophecy meant, but she came up with nothing. Outside of Aria, and Uriel who was unlikely to remember, the only person she discussed the matter with was her grandmother.
Meanwhile, into the next semester, Wren and Nimbus finally buried the hatchet. They went from aggravating to nauseating in a span of weeks. Was this best friendship? Moira certainly didn't cling to Wren like that. Would he have even let her? Maybe. It must have been a childhood friends sort of thing.
❥FIFTH YEAR Moira decided she didn't like secrets. Her friend had been suffering for years, and she was none the wiser until he returned to school with bandages around his throat, from an attempt at his life. And yet, while temporarily mute, Nimbus Siddall was the happiest she had ever seen him. Even Wren seemed happier, having found love with their resident rain cloud. Teasing them was fun. Meanwhile, Moira had grown close to Eion, and was developing feelings of her own. She wasn't sure how to approach it. It wasn't like she was the nicest person... Maybe Sparrow would have some helpful advice for her?
❥SIXTH YEAR Everyone in her friend group seemed to be paired up. Aspen and Reggie, Yukon and Aria, Wren and Nimbus, and even Eion and herself. The first semester was peaceful, but the second... Moira was more than a little worried about some of her friends. It turned out she was right to be concerned.
At the beginning of August, Moira watched the life leave from Aria Siddall's eyes. She had been with Wren and Yukon at the Winchester Estate next door when there was a loud crash and cut to the power. By the time they made it over, the ceiling had come down in the Siddall's estate. Everett Siddall lay on the ground, a pool of blood from his head that had been gruesomely blown half off. There was an arm sticking out at the bottom of some rubble, which they discovered later to be Sera Carver. None of this phased her. What did, was the sight of Aria Siddall, sobbing over her brother as she stubbornly performed compressions, shoving the steel bar that had impaled her deeper and deeper through her abdomen. Nimbus was caked in blood—it was impossible to tell what was his and what was Everett's, and he had no pulse. Still, Aria begged Wren to save him. While Wren tended to Nimbus, Moira called for help, and Aria said her final goodbyes to Yukon, freshly her fiance, knowing full-well she had pushed herself beyond her limits. Moira cushioned her head on her lap as Yukon held her hands like a lifeline. The group lost their angel that day, but Nimbus survived by the skin of his teeth. For some reason, the whole ordeal gave Moira an odd sense of deja vu.
❥SEVENTH YEAR started off a disaster, the wounds of grief still fresh in their chests. Yukon and Sparrow took to drinking, entirely too much. Nimbus was quiet, and had to be kept from his dormitory often, lest they never see him. As for the rest of them, they were just trying to keep everyone together, each grieving in their own ways. In February, Moira performed a pagan ritual for Aria's birthday. If she were being honest, she wasn't sure that it would do any good, but it seemed to bring a sense of somber peace for most of them. With time, everyone began to drift back together, forever scarred, but their bonds stronger.
POST-GRADUATION Immediately following graduation came the heated family debate of Moira's future business endeavors. Of course, there was never any question that Moira was a born business woman. The issue lied in her loyalties: Theo and Aveline hoped that Moira would choose to take over the funeral home, while Ursula wanted to train her to run the fortune shop. Personally, Moira hoped to leave the mortuary to Uriel one day, and stick with toying with muggles for a living. But she was young and capable, so for now, why not both? She could multitask. Besides, it wasn't like she was running two businesses by her lonesome.
Life was fine for a while, but eventually, tragedy struck again: This time with the Winchesters. Moira could hardly believe it. One day she was having tea with Wren's mother, and the next? Burnt to a crisp, and Moira collecting the bodies. Yet again, that horrible feeling of deja vu. Moira realized too little too late it was her prophecy fulfilled. Shortly after was a meeting between the Payne Seers. Ursula consoled her, telling her there was nothing that she could have done. Uriel, meanwhile, didn't believe it. She knew he wasn't blaming her, exactly—more-so arguing against the concept of fate itself—but it stung all the same, and she blamed herself. She wondered if Aria had understood it, back when it first began. In any case, there was nothing more to do than be there for her friends, and aid Nimbus in his mission of keeping the remaining Winchesters from falling apart.
Not long after, as a sense of normalcy began to return, Grandmother Ursula decided to retire and travel the world again, leaving the entirety of Madame Ursula's Fortunes & Tarot in the hands of Moira. Though significantly sooner than she ever imagined, it was a dream come true. She wanted nothing more than to follow her grandmother's footsteps! There was still the mortuary, of course, but she was confident she could handle things just fine. She had the undying support of her family, after all.
It was in said shop, their lovely little home, that dearest Eion proposed to her with the help of all of her friends. Of course she said yes. The love of her life and a found family that cared for her so? She was truly, deeply blessed. She would do anything to protect them. Which was why, when Eion's mother and abuser came back into their lives, with a sweet little sister that resembled her love so much? Well. Now that she's seen his face, she couldn't in good conscience allow him to live. Roaches, unlike spiders, were best left squashed. What better way than a little poison?
Did she regret it? Yes. Not because the threat was permanently removed, but because she was frightened of what she was capable of. What would those she love think of her, to know she'd gone so far? It wasn't like Nimbus, who had killed in self-defense. No, Moira's crimes were premeditated, down to the cremation of evidence in her family's mortuary. Bad timing left her found out by some of her friends, but the secret was well-kept. If Eion ever suspected, he never asked her about it. On Samhain of 2058, Moira and Eion married. The guilt of keeping her secret ate at her, but she was reassured by her dearest Wren that all would be well.
