► radley lestrange || pure-blood || gryffindor seventh year

radley lestrange summed up in phrase would be ‘the unexpected, but not the unwanted’. he was born into a world where, due to his lineage, fear was easy to acquire; and from that he worked with a fire to be more. the name he bore was only a reminder of what he wouldn’t be.

he favors no certain group of people, and seeks only to be the best he can; a noble goal, paired with an iron will and it’s clear that radley will only get where he wants to be. however, he often forgets that human connections-- though difficult at times-- are meant to help and not hinder. that bottling things up, converting pain into gain, is not an easy or completely healthy method.

while battling demons that dwell just out of sight, radley continues to fight forward. he is brave, determined, and set on being more than a name; more than the son of rodolphus. more than his blood, so to speak. which is incredibly ironic, if you have a taste for that.

► fred weasley ii || half-blood || gryffindor seventh year

he is mumbled jokes in the back of the classroom, he is hidden laughter, and he is choked out comebacks; he is fred weasley the second. a boy haunted by his familiar smile and his natural mirth.

fred’s humor is quieter, more subdued than that of his father. flare and showmanship are often lacking in his deliveries, but, he is funny.you simply have to get to know him a bit more to see it; to have the honor of sitting next to him in class to hear his commentary or standing by him at quidditch games. 

while funny, there is inherently something.. sad.. about fred. you see, he doesn’t know if his personality is his own or if he is trying to be someone else; and when you don’t know yourself, it’s harder for you to know what you want. to be truly and fully joyful. he is still content (happy, even), but he wants to uncover who exactly he is? or, rather, who he isn’t.
