FULL NAME Nicholas Ewan Flint AGE & BIRTHDAY Twenty-three born on birthday in 13-AUG-2001 OCCUPATION Charms professor (slytherin alumnus) BLOOD STATUS Pureblood FACE CLAIM Kevin Zegers WAND TYPE 10 inches, Sea serpent heartstring, pine wood PATRONUS Sumatran tiger PETS Silver, a Booted Eagle with black and white wings. ABILITIES Non-verbal Tell me who you are, I'm sure you're some kind of superstar. Free Style "Tell us, who is Nicholas Flint? "A jerk?" *chuckled* "A heartless fellow who cares of nothing but himself? No, don't deny it, I've heard enough of what people say to know what everyone thinks of me. It is alright, I know who I am, I know part of what people said is truth too: I can be pretty cruel when I need to, cold, perhaps because I keep a careful distance between myself and other people. Times are you needed to act a certain way to have people obey you and do things that you wanted to do in the way you wanted it done on the time you wanted it done. There is just no other way around it." "Well, but how are you really like?" *smirks* "Well, after all that I've told you, do you believe that I am just a normal guy? I mean... I am nothing really special, not more than the guy living in your neighborhood, perhaps the differences between me and him is that I work out a lot, I have a really high expectation out of myself, if things are not done well it is not done at all. Other than that... Yeah, I eat, I sleep, I wake up everyday and go to work, get stressed up get tired out, jog every evening because I care for how I look. I go for a drink with some friends at some of the nights to relax, then get home and sleep. So really, just normal. You can call me cold as I will say of myself, every moves made in my life were measured, and in every day of my life there is a schedule which I follow as closely as I can. I am quite a perfectionist, and erm... I could be counted as... Responsible? Yeah, I am pretty responsible too, I like to follow through tasks that was given to me and made sure it gets done on time. As said, I have a high expectations from myself and also from the people around me, some would say me and my father are alike in that way." *shrugs* "Interesting. Well now you mentioned it, tell me about your family." "Well, I am one of the Flints. My dad named Marcus Flint, he is a businessman running many business in various fields and an all around a busy man. We never gets to see him much even when we were kids. Often he left house before we wake up and only come home after we went to bed, and even if he stays home, he is always in the study. My mom is Laurie Flint, nee Hughs. She doesn't work but stay at home a lovely wife who throws a party every now and then. Mom is the one who takes care of us since we were young, she taught us all about etiquette - drill all those rules into our heads - since my siblings and me know enough to learn them. It is not to say that I resent my parents or anything, but there's always a sense of coldness at home, like there has not enough love to spread between the six of us in the household. Perhaps that's what makes me me today, but I won't say that's all that's affected me." "I have an older brother, Brian Flint is the marvelous one who's gotten all the attention from father. Bright, he was the top of the class out-shinning everyone at everything, including me who's always getting the average-good results. There wasn't a surprise when he became the heir to all our family businesses. And then 5 years younger than I am, we have Jocelyn, and lastly our baby sister came into this family a year after her completed our family. Not exactly a place full of love, our home, but I do love my siblings, and is even manage to stay close with my brother after all those years of competitions. It is a pleasant surprise to still have someone close to you after everything both of you had done has ruin each other's lives, or at least, shaped it into something you would not want it to be if given a choice." "I do jealous of my two younger siblings though. Born as girls, they had never been in father's consideration as an heir to the family business, but they've got all the freedom to be who they wanted to be." "You would think that if Brian is the one who's got stuck with all the family businesses, I would have freedom to choose whatever I dreamed to be isn't it? The answer is no, the world is never fair, I learned that by the time I was 16 when father made his choice between us both. Some damages were done and there isn't anyway to rewind and redo things the other way. My choices for my very own future has been taken away since the moment I was conceived." "Well, if you do have a choice now, how would you choose?" "Does that matter? I mean a dream which can never come true is a dream that should be crushed before it sprouts into hopes, just so it won't hurt furth-" "Just take this as a chance to let yourself live in it for a moment?" *sighed* "If you have to put it that way... Alright. Well, you need to know I don't dream much, not even when I am sleeping. Usually I am exhausted by the time I fall into slumber, supposed even my brain shut down then. So if - what a big if - I get a choice to decide my future... Well firstly I would've become a healer, and I'd love to work in the children's ward at St. Mungo's, or any hospitals that needed me. I've always been good with kids, so I've felt and so I've been told. But I've given up on my healer dreams in order to catch up to my brother back then, I couldn't make it into Advanced Potion - the essential subject to become a healer. There's really no one to blame but myself, the lack of talent. I am really trying not to let something like that to get me down. I mean, I am living well now..." "Perhaps you would like to hear that I have plan for the later part of my life, which I hope would be quiet and peaceful, if I can get to have my own bakery at a corner of Diagon Alley. It would open from 10 in the morning and close at 5.30 in the evening. I would be the one who bake us various cakes and pies and beautifully decorated cupcakes. The day should be so easy there, and so much more enjoyable. Though of course part of my dreams would involve my wife running the shop with me while my own kids eager to learn baking from me, they would steals the cookies and chocolate cakes from my counter and I would have to yell at them..." *chuckled out of embarrassment* "Well, these all are still just dreams for now, especially seeing I am still a bachelor at the age of twenty-two, I doubt I would get married anytime soon." "How could you worry about that with a face like yours? I bet there are tons of ladies wanting to be the lucky Mrs. Flint." "Perhaps. You really think that I am handsome? *smirks* But the right girl has not appear to me yet. I am not saying this in a desperate way, I mean even though the idea of a young father appeals to me - I don't want to have a large age gap between me and my kids - I understand that something can't be rush, definitely not marriages." "You're right. Now, give me some dirt, have you dated a lot of girls? Are you the type who sleep around?" "And you're talking about my brother, that descriptions fits him more than me. I have never been a womanizer. Well, I've dated, quite a few times too many for my ten fingers to count I must add. I guess that I've been a playboy back in school too, flirty, sweet-talking girls, flashing smiles and think myself is charming... Perhaps I am still charming, I do believe so, it is the jawline and the dimples." *chuckles* "I seems to stop being so... floaty these days. I mean one night stands happens sometimes, when I have one too many drinks and have the right company by my side, not a tough find in a bar too let me assure you. However, yeah, I might be a cold-hearted jerk most of the time, but not necessary the biggest asshole in the dating history." "Nicholas, do you know that the fact that you admit yourself a jerk has already canceled out that title on yourself?" "Is it how that works? I've not a single idea." *chuckles* "You need a guide to what girls' are thinking." "That would be every men's desire." "Alright, moving on, tell us about your school life. Have you make any special achievement? Any unforgettable memories? Regrets?" "For most part of the school life I've lived in books. I did pretty well in every tests and passed every examinations with good enough grades, but I have always been the runner up to my brother in the battle between him and me. In case you're wondering, I was in Slytherin by the way, same as Brian. But while he is the year's top student and headboy, I am the Slytherin Quidditch Captain and Cooking Club Captain, with an extra of me being a temporary helper in Hospital Wings, which I made sure my father never know. It is a volunteer job and I know what he is like if he ever gets to hear me getting involved. Other than that things are pretty much... enjoyable. I have my own gang of good friends, the competition with my brother went on and on until our sixth year, by which I've lost so much I wasn't sure where to began. I focused well on Quidditch then, led Slytherin to it's victory for the subsequent two years, and I've got a pretty satisfying NEWT's home." "Well, in accordance to my knowledge, you're made a return to the school, this time as a professor. What got you make that decision?" "I am here to return a favor to Professor McGonagall actually. She has been a great support to me when I was in school, even though it is not supposed to be her duty to give me guidance and support for I am just one student among the millions in school. She has been a great headmistress, for so long as I can remember. Poor lady should've retired long ago and live a peaceful life at home, with friends and family visit her for tea and reading as a pastime, that is what I had envision her doing at her age, but no. You can say that I have a lot of respect for her. When I heard news that she would need someone to teach Charms at Hogwarts, I've came back from my vacation to offer my service. Anyway, I am still quite unsure how would I settle down yet, I know I could possibly get a position among the Ministry, however the politics... well, let's say I had my share back when I was young and am not looking forward to live the rest of my life in competitions, backstabbing and money under table. Before Hogwarts all I did was traveling around doing researches and working on a book of mine, a travel literature is perhaps nothing that could pass up as a great achievement. So yeah, I am really just jumping at the first chance that presented itself to me." "That sounds nice. Have your family member given any reaction to this," "This is not quite their business isn't it? Not that they can change my mind. Brian decided to agree with me about this is none of his business, and so has mother who hasn't spoken a word about it. Father is a little more... difficult seeing he actually wanted me to assist my brother on the job, but Brian is managing very well on his own, he doesn't need me, he said so. I've not seek opinion from both my sisters on this yet." "It has been a splendid hour spent talking to you Nicholas. Thank you for your time and your kind answer to me. And I wish your future would be bright and your dreams come true." "Thank you, and I hope so too." Let's us all just be friend, And together we can start a new trend. |
