#evangeline sallow

Some lore I haven't really had the opportunity to discuss yet is the fact that Victoria has a Walkman. She borrowed her roommate Elena's when she visited her in Spain and ended up liking them enough to get one herself. A song she listened to VERY FREQUENTLY during the breakup was Don't Speak by No Doubt. I have this image of her falling to her knees in her flat and just sobbing because this is literally her life— Wait a minute, the angst questions were yesterday.

Radiant absolutely despises Michael Jackson's music. It started as a joke in an RP with @postsbycass but just became canon. (Same thing with Marcus x Hadlee and LOOK WHERE WE ARE NOW.) She also doesn't like Oliver with a beard which is like. HAVE YOU SEEN SEAN BIGGERSTAFF GOD DAMN HE IS SO FINE—

Speaking of Woods and their partners, Adair's love language has changed in some aspects from when he was younger to when he is older. When he was younger, it was all about him. He wanted to be fawned over. He knew he was hot stuff and he wanted it acknowledged. Older Adair though? He loves hearing about others. One of the things that drew him to Selene (his wife) is how she's able to weave stories together. He loves hearing his woman yap.

You know the gif of Jane from Twilight throwing the vampire baby into the fire? That's Theodore with Adair. Theo HATESSSSSSSS Adair. As someone who could not ever imagine hurting Poppy the way Adair hurt... literally everyone, he is disgusted by him. And unfortunately they never see each other after Hogwarts when Adair becomes a better person because Theodore dies in 1914. Their lore does remain connected though, because Adair's son Erik actually died protecting Theodore's son, Theseus, in Italy.

Another fun question! I'm bulletpointing rn because I'm ready to go to bed haha Victoria — her with Percy (during the breakup); herself without any scars (shortly after the Battle of Hogwarts); her aunt Dolli with brown hair, hugging her siblings, and not traumatized (after she gets over her scars) (Dolli is @dolli-and-friends's OC) Radiant — her parents holding her kids while her brothers mess around like they used to before Arthur died Evangeline — her brother Eleazar, older than 18 years old Noelani — her mother at her wedding Hadlee — herself and Cedric, married (shortly after the breakup); herself being the biological mother of Anastasia and Flavius Flint (she thinks they deserve a better bio mother than Tanya Lestrange, and they do lmfao)

“Professor Dumbledore?” Newt asked.

Dumbledore smiled at Newt. “Mr. Scamander, good to see you!” He simply nodded at Evangeline in greeting. “Professor Sallow had to step out on some urgent business. I’ll be teaching your lesson today.”

“What kind of urgent business?” Eva asked.

“He didn’t say. Sit down please.”

Evangeline bit her lip to prevent herself from saying something disrespectful to her teacher. Even though she really, really wanted to.

Other students started filing in, a few of them taking a double take when they saw Dumbledore. Most of them didn’t seem to notice.

Newt sat next to Evangeline towards the front of the classroom, reaching for her hand. He squeezed it gently when he took it and kissed her forehead when she rested her head on his shoulder.

After a few minutes, Dumbledore went to the front of the class and cleared his throat. 

“Right.” He glanced down at the lesson plans on the desk before shaking his head, moving the papers to the side. “Today, we’re going to be doing something different. In that closet over there is a certain magical creature that thrives in dark spaces. Anyone have any guesses on what it could possibly be?”

Newt’s hand shot up before anyone else’s, followed by Evangeline’s. Dumbledore nodded at him.

“A boggart?”

Dumbledore smiled. “That is correct Mr. Scamander. Ten points to Gr-Hufflepuff.”

Carter Williams cheered from the back of the classroom. Newt’s face flushed slightly red.

“Everyone line up. Single file please.”

As the class lined up, Newt and Evangeline found themselves at the front of everyone else. He placed a hand on her shoulder and stepped forward, standing in front of the closet.

There was a loud whirring sound when it opened, and a desk and chair materialized in front of him.

“That’s… an unusual one,” Dumbledore commented. “So. Mr. Scamander fears what more than anything else in the world?”

Newt bit his lip. “H-having to work in an office, sir.”

A couple of their classmates laughed. Even Dumbledore smiled. Eva stayed silent, her hands begging to sweat. 

“Go ahead Newt.”

Newt raised his wand at the desk. “Riddikulus.”

The desk changed into the form of a dragon. Some of the students clapped and cheered. 

“Good job,” Dumbledore said. He turned to Evangeline, squeezing her arm and bringing her forward. “It’s only a boggart Evangeline. It can’t hurt you.”

Professor Dumbledore led Evangeline past Newt and placed her in front of the dragon desk. The students in line quieted, curious to see what “The Ice Queen’s” boggart would be.

The dragon shifted with a loud crack. 

There, on the floor, was the body of Sebastian Sallow.

Evangeline raised her wand with a shaky hand. “R-Riddikulus.”

There was another crack, and the body changed to Althea Sallow.

“R-Riddikulus!”

Crack. 

Newt Scamander laid on the floor, his open eyes glazed over. He was dead.

A couple of the students snickered. 

Evangeline took one last look at the body and turned to run out of the classroom, more laughter following her.

Newt didn’t even wait for Dumbledore’s permission before sprinting after her.

She was nowhere in sight when he got out to the hall, so he mentally ran down the list of all of her hiding spots. Her mother’s office in the Charm’s classroom was the closest, so he decided to start there. 

He ran up the stairs two at a time, refusing to slow down even when other students were in the way. He didn’t stop until he reached the locked doors of the classroom.

Not even waiting to catch his breath, Newt ran down the stairs he just ran up, his robes floating behind him. It was too cold for her to jump into the fountain in the Transfiguration courtyard, and too far to get to the Hufflepuff Common room. That left one other option nearby.

Newt sprinted back to the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom and went down the stairs closer to it, stopping in front of a strange looking clock with golden gears and stars on it. He held out his wand, and the clock opened.

Evangeline sat in the middle of the Undercroft under a pile of blankets, her body shaking with sobs. 

He slowly walked over to her and knelt down by the blankets. As if afraid to hurt her, he gently raised his hand and brushed a pink strand out of her face.

“Would you like to talk about it?” Newt asked softly.

Evangeline crawled closer to him and rested her head on his chest. After a second, she shook her head.

2. Sooooooooooooooooo confession time: I have never played D&D and am not familiar with the classes 😭 One of my old coworkers tried to introduce me but I genuinely had no idea what I was doing, so it didn't stick. If there is like. A magizoologist equivalent in the D&D world, I can see Newt doing that, and Evangeline being his assistant like she is in main canon!

3. Bold of you to assume Adair pays attention to his classes enough to know what is there 😭 probably a Quidditch class haha. Any excuse for him to play more Quidditch, he'll take!
