wand reaction when first held:
when ophelia first held her wand it felt like the entire world slowed down and angels were singing. as soon as she grasped it, she felt powerful and in a way, more inclined to help others around her. the wand itself, while she pointed it and swished it, managed to carry a book across the room.
boggart:
her parents lying dead.
patronus:
rabbit.
there is a purity to the rabbit, one that is incredibly rare. these people, no matter how many cynical or bitter ideas the world may give them, will always have a curious innocence to them. the world interests them greatly, and they want to explore it without being judged harshly. they are very sensitive and emotional, and are not embarrassed to show this. they can lack confidence at times, because they may have others put them down and make them feel like they are not as strong as everyone else. this is untrue, those with this patronus have beautiful hearts and serene souls deep within them, no matter what else goes on in their life. they need to hold onto this to find their true happiness.

swirl of golden yellow. sweet tasting.

she smells of jasmine and cedar wood.

[ prologue ]
to be edited ...
as a child i always knew that i was different, but kept it hidden until my hogwarts letter came in. my parents were very excited that - them both being muggles - had a witch in the family which allowed me to embrace who i am and what i can do. i didn't grow up in the magic world, but it all seems so fascinating to me. it's like everything is a surprise! i grew up in america until i was nine, when my father decided he wanted to live closer to his home and where he grew up (my mother is american, while my father is english). so that makes everything strange for me as well, because while my parents live in our london home while i attend school, we always spend my extended break at home in america.
