biography:
It doesn’t matter what name Edith had when she was born, she’s always been Edith. She knew she was a girl early, and she was blessed enough to have a family who accepted her immediately and fully. There wasn’t a time she could remember being anyone other than Edith or having any other name. Her mother helped her pick her middle name and for that Edith is particularly fond of it. The middle child of three, her siblings are her favorite people in the whole world and Edith loves them completely and fiercely.
Before school, Edith had been a shy, introverted child. She loved puzzles, hide and seek, and chess, and considered growing up to become a chess master. When she got Sorted into Slytherin Edith took one look around her new peers and knew she needed to toughen up, fast. She spent the first time forcing herself to have opinions and voice them, to challenge and push back, to light up rooms she entered. It took around a year of practice before she mastered it entirely, but it left her an armored seat-of-your-pants exterior that she wouldn’t let falter. She didn’t consider it bravery; she considered it survival.
Spying hadn’t been her first choice, but she could admit she was good at it. War was just real-life chess and she was good at chess. She had always had friends from both sides at school, and she how to compartmentalize. War was dangerous yes, but so was life. The Order had to get information from somewhere or they never stood a chance. She could handle the people she loved best hating her if it meant they’d be safer in the long run.
