Look here, what Do you see? Are You Looking Forward to Get Tangle Up in Me? FULL NAME Xylina Rosa Ollivander AGE & BIRTHDAY Jan-31st-2007 OCCUPATION Seventh year Ravenclaw BLOOD STATUS Half-blood FACE CLAIM Jane Levy WAND TYPE fourteen and quarter inches, fairywing, birch. PATRONUS Butterfly PETS Hamster named Jerry ABILITIES/ SPECIES Eighth-Veela-It comes from my mother’s side she’s a quarter veela and her mother was half-veela and you get the point right? While the gene does show up in my good looks it doesn’t give me a bad temper like my mother. I’ve often heard her say it makes her temper shorter, nope not a problem i have. Also the whole veela allure thing it’s there but it’s not strong, yeah i can flirt and convince a guy once in awhile to do something for me it’s not something I can control or feel. I know it’s there, my mom says even if it’s a weaker version of a allure than a quarter or half veela have it’s there. Tell me who you are, I'm sure you're some kind of superstar. Free Style January 30th, 2024 11:25 am Im not sure exactly what to feel, I have about thirty-five minutes until i’m seventeen. I wonder if Xochilt is still up because it’s her birthday too. I guess it’s almost like new years eve when you start the countdown and you realize that you’re about to start another year. I guess that’s what you’re doing when you come of age, starting a new chapter in your life. Funnily enough I don’t feel as if i’ve said goodbye properly to the current chapter of my life. How do you even know if you’re ready for a new chapter? Here's everything I've learned so far, just in case I change by the time i'm thirty XYLINA As far as names goes mine’s is a weird one and it’s almost always mispronounced. It’s not that I get tired of correcting people, it would just be nice for someone to get it right the first time. For future references it’s Suh-Lina though I don’t mind Lina because that’s way easier to get right all the time. X could also stand for Xochilt, my twin sister and one of my best friends even if we are a bit different. X is also for Xavier, the youngest so that I wouldn’t have to be. Which i’m exceedingly grateful for because no one wants to be the baby of the family. Of course he might be a little annoying but I’m pretty sure that’s the job of a little brother to brother and tease you. YOGA The best thing about Yoga is that it relaxes you and it’s incredibly fun. It’s not something that many people know i’m into but it’s as big an obsession to me as engines and muggle things. I guess I came across it while roaming around London and things just clicked. Xochilt and Metias were always in the shop obsessing over wands and I was all about seeing what new things were happening in the Muggle world. I was about thirteen or so and my mom didn’t see anything wrong with me taking classes over the summer and it kind of stuck. Only thing about Yoga is that my workspace in the basement isn’t the best place to do it, it’s too stuffy and way too noisey. LILY PADS Depending on your interpretation of distance and how much exercise you’ve decided you need for the day, there’s a park not to far from our house. Far means on a bike or running it would only take you about an half-hour to get their, where as walking would probably take me two hours. Mostly because I don’t like the whole walking for fun thing. However on days when the house seems too loud or too quiet I wander to the park. Towards the edge there's a lily pond and a nice shady spot under the tree. Sometimes I sit there to draw, mostly finishing diagrams of the machines i’ve managed to take apart and put back together. It a wonder that any of it really works after I’m done combing through the innerworkings. INVENTORS I don’t really understand what I want to be when I graduate or what I want to do, because traveling never really appealed to me. I don’t want to live at home forever because I do want to go off on my own but I’m not entirely sure to do what. Most likely I’d be an Inventor but i’m not sure what I’d invent. Maybe something useful, though with magic all around it kind of renders most things irrelevant. All I know is that Unless I become a therapist i’m probably going to get a job in the muggle world or go to muggle college. On the other hand I could be a Yoga instructor or a Teacher…. No I think and Inventor is best. NEVERLAND My favorite book without a doubt would have to be Peter Pan, mostly because I loved the idea of just having fun and being a kid forever as much as I love the idea of growing up and doing my own thing. I suppose that’s why I’m always cheerful and full of energy, either way my life goes, i’m pretty sure i’ll end up happy. After all happiness is all based on perception of your reality, who actually knows what they need in life. Plus it the first book I ever read start to finish by myself with my mother or father sounding out the words or helping me understand. I still have the book in a chest under my bed, it’s where I hide all my prized possessions. ART I do have other hobbies, I like painting and drawing and sculpting and chalk. Yeah I know the latter sounds silly but it’s incredibly exciting to try and finish a drawing on the sidewalk or in the middle of the street before the rain washes it away. Plus saving paper is incredible important these days with all the pollutions and other things going on in the world. That’s probably why my room is almost always cluttered either I have random screws and parts on my desk or crumbled up drawings on the floor by my waste basket. Not to mention the books on my bookshelf not really organized just stuffed into the empty spaces. I’d long since given up trying to find room on the shelf. Some books were half-opened on the desk and then shelf above my bed, filled with merlin knows what. Even so my door remained open in case anybody needed something, a helping hand or someone to listen to whatever problem they were going through. RAVENCLAW When I got my hogwarts letter I remember Xochilt dancing around the shop probably excited about finally be able to get her wand. Me I was excited about a lot of things, most of it finally being able to learn magic. That and something about being away from home made it all seem like one big adventure, even if I was little a nervous. It was hard not to join in with my sister’s excitement, after all it was a big step in a witches life right? Besides the fact that me and Xochilt went our own ways just as much as we stuck to each other’s side I was excited about spending time with her at school. Metias had told us about the dorms, sorted by year and house, me and Xochilt would be sharing a dorm except we didn’t. Xochilt was sorted into Slytherin and I was happy for her, Her house wouldn’t stop us from being family, from being sisters. Along the way however I met Icarus Llewellyn and we became best friends, along with him came Charlie Valdez so much curly hair on that boy. OBSCURE SECRETS My sister is a vampire, which isn’t a bad thing actually I don’t think this makes anything different besides the fact that she craves blood. It’s not her fault, even though I’m pretty sure she’s blaming herself for Metias death it’s not like she could’ve prevented it. Everything happens for a reason and I’m sure something good will come from this. Xavier doesn’t really help things but nothing seems to get through to that boy. Still I won't give up trying to get him to give Xochilt a break, she’s been through enough. STURDY AND SILLY AISLING DOLOHOV Aisling is our next door neighbor and my sister’s best friend. Don’t get me wrong me and Aisling are incredibly close but I don’t think we share the same bond as Ais and Xo. However sharing a house with her has made a bit closer over the years and I consider her one of my closest friends. OPPOSITE SEX Boys. The topic of discussion between the girls in my dorm and sometimes me and my sister. Though I feel as if we have severely different taste in guys only because I’m not sure what type of guy I like. I can flirt and I do flirt with guys I mean looks are looks right? Finding a beautiful guy at Hogwarts is as simple as walking down to the common room at times. However there are things more important than looks and maybe im too busy to actually start looking for things like that. LOVE After the topic of Boys I guess love is next right? I don’t have a reason to believe in love and I don’t have a reason not to believe. I’ve never fallen in love or had my heartbroken, though i’m not keeping myself guarded, it just hasn’t happened yet. I guess having my head in a notebook or sketchbook or any book in general doesn’t help much does it? LITTLE BROTHERS You can’t live with them and you can’t live without them, I suppose. While Xavier could be a handful it’s hard not to love him. Sure he might be a bit rough around the edges and has the tendency to tease Xo a little too much that’s what brother’s are for. Besides he’s kind of cute when he’s not touching her stuff or trespassing on my workspace in the basement. INTERACTIONS All though I have Icarus, Charlie, Xochilt, and Aisling there is also Giselle Henderson. We weren’t immediately best friends but we grew close sharing the same house and dorm. Along with that came run ins with Drew Reinhardt, who was a really mean person. I guess everyone has Baggage and Drew was Aisling’s. VIENNA OLLIVANDER My mother is a no nonsense type of woman, she takes her job very seriously as she works in the department of magical transportation. She has the tendency to nag a lot more than necessary but that’s probably her way of showing that she cares. That’s probably where I get it from, my tendency to nag and mother hen my friends and little brother. Though Xavier thinks I’m being annoying i’m ninety-five percent sure that he secretly likes it. ANDREW OLLIVANDER My father is a well-known wandmaker if it wasn’t obvious from the last name, he owns Ollivanders in Diagon Alley. Every witch or Wizard in hogwarts probably has gotten their wand from that shop. Myself included, though i’ve never been into wands as much as my sister and older brother, i suppose it works well and suits me well. I wouldn’t want to lose it or break it, I wouldn’t know what to do without it. NEGLECT Neglect means when you don’t pay attention or give something the care it deserves and sometimes with my busy schedule and tendency to get siderailed by my project Jerry (my Hamster) is my little miracle. My mom told me hamsters need attention and care like any pet but sometimes I forget. I hope Jerry will forgive me each time i forget to clean his cage or put him in his ball for exercise. I always give him food and water so maybe he’s not too neglected! DAYDREAMS I think everyone daydreams, at least that’s my opinion. My favorite daydream spot is the tree nearest the black lake or maybe the dock at the Boathouse. When i’m not that school it’s most definitely a toss up between the lily pond and the windowsill in my bedroom. Most of the time I close my eyes and see the stories play out from the books i’ve read and other times it’s whatever i left on my workbench back home. EXCITEMENT I can admit that i get excited easily, it’s not like i’m embarrassed about it because well getting excited is awesome. Also it takes a lot of energy to get excited which explains why i’m addicted to Caffeine and sugar. Also muggle energy drinks are a gift from the heavens because you have no idea how much energy those things can give you. Though if you drink too many you get sick and your parents ban you from drinking them for two weeks and you have to sneak them in the house but that’s okay. Sometimes it’s a good idea to to disobey your parents because how else will you learn the difference between good choices and bad choices? REMEMBERING THE PAST There are things you’re never supposed to forget and some things you wish you could. The way your brother could always make you laugh, or would read you a bedtime story when you parents told you that it was too late for one more. How even though him Xo had a lot in common he still found a way to bond with you, do things just the two of you enjoyed. How he listened to your constant ramblings and didn’t make fun of how much time you spent in your workshop. Sometime you try and try to forget you brother’s funeral and that’s not your fault. The haunting images of you mom crying and you father trying to be strong. Watching everything through watery eyes making everything come out blurry. You want to forget how you went silent for two whole weeks the longest time you’ve ever gone without talking. Even so sometimes remember the past helps make the future better, even if I’ve yet to prove that fact. Let's us all just be friend, And together we can start a new trend. |
