𝔥𝔬𝔲𝔰𝔢 • thunderbird.
➞ Oh, lookie here, the most ferocious girl we've ever seen! Vee Aoun, you know you're a little flirt and how could you not be? With that ambition of yours and high dreams, you know what helps you get in your way, and your impulsiveness is not something to shy away from. Although you may lack some foresight, I'm sure that's fine. You'll find a friend to help you through that once you make your home in Thunderbird.

𝔴𝔞𝔫𝔡 • larch wood, eight inches, thunderbird heartstring.

𝔠𝔩𝔞𝔰𝔰𝔢𝔰 • defense against the dark arts, potions, transfiguration, astronomy, herbology, and charms.
𝔢𝔵𝔱𝔯𝔞-𝔠𝔲𝔯𝔯𝔦𝔠𝔲𝔩𝔞𝔯𝔰 • apparition, potions club, and dueling.

𝔞𝔫𝔦𝔪𝔞𝔤𝔲𝔰 • red-tailed hawk.
➞ Vee only knows freedom when she is flying. It is like the hawk has always been a part of her soul. While quidditch is not in the cards for her because she has been too scared to let her House down due to her health, she has sort of invented her own sport . . . or something like that. It's a little something she calls stunt flying, which basically just means doing as many dumb and reckless tricks on a broom as possible. It all helped her prepare for having wings of her own. With that competitive streak and easy confidence, Vee is no stranger to being a predator either.

𝔪𝔞𝔡𝔠𝔞𝔭 𝔯𝔬𝔩𝔢 • We've all heard of The Mom Friend, but step aside, kids. Yvette Aoun is no such thing. Sad Injured Friend Who Hides Everything Until Her Boos Pull It Out of Her? Sure thing. Passive Aggressive Friend Who Needs to Be Reminded to Cut That Shit Out? Oh yeah. Your Girl Who Is Always Down to Host the Next Party? Absolutely! The Lovable Social Butterfly Who Spoils the Heck Out of Those She Loves? You know it! A Troublemaker Always Ready to Follow You on a New Adventure? . . . always. ♡

𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫𝔢𝔯 𝔬𝔣 𝔰𝔭𝔢𝔢𝔠𝔥 • Yvette is well-educated and extremely well-spoken. She can be a bit argumentative if someone isn’t around to elbow her in the side as a reminder, and she certainly doesn’t know how to raise her hand in class, for better or for worse. Vee tends to rush her words, likeshedoesn’thaveanytime and she’sgottagetitalloutatonce. She only stops running a mile a minute when enough firewhiskey has slowed her sweet-talking down. Overall, Vee is a vivacious storyteller and seems to capture an audience each time she opens her mouth. It’s just a matter of them being able to understand her when she gets excited about something. E-nun-ci-ate, honey.

𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫𝔢𝔯 𝔬𝔣 𝔪𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔪𝔢𝔫𝔱 • 𝒲𝑒 𝑔𝑒𝓉 𝒾𝓉. Elegance and Vee just don’t go hand in hand. How she can possibly still be a decent dancer and not fall off her broomstick is anyone’s guess. Her bony hips and long legs are always causing her problems, and if she isn’t bumping into the corner of her dresser (I swear it wasn’t out that far yesterday!), then she’s tripping down the moving staircase. It’s actually surprising that she can run as fast as she can, given how absolutely absurd she looks when she does it.

𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫𝔢𝔯 𝔬𝔣 𝔡𝔯𝔢𝔰𝔰 • Vee is Ilvermorny’s fashion icon, and she knows it. Few can compete with the resources she has, and nobody sends a care package of this year’s new looks as well as Mama Salima does. Screw wearing her uniform. She will begrudgingly don it for class, with plenty of her own additions, but Vee doesn’t care how many marks she gets for breaking dress code. Style is who she is.

𝔥𝔢𝔦𝔤𝔥𝔱 • five feet, eight inches.
𝔟𝔲𝔦𝔩𝔡 • all disproportional long legs that she desperately hopes to grow into someday, just starting to shift from scrawny to mature but will probably never have those “womanly” curves.
𝔡𝔦𝔰𝔱𝔦𝔫𝔤𝔲𝔦𝔰𝔥𝔦𝔫𝔤 𝔪𝔞𝔯𝔨𝔰 • seems to always have an odd bruise or scratch, big alluring eyes that get illuminated by her wide glasses (although these days, she tries to mostly wear her contacts), always either smiling wide or donning a troublesome smirk.

═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

𝔤𝔬𝔞𝔩𝔰 • throwing the biggest party Ilvermorny has ever seen (and getting off scot-free, of course), figuring out what the hell is going on with her older sister, inventing her own potion.
𝔣𝔢𝔞𝔯𝔰 • losing her friends, not having her parents’ approval, being poor and unsuccessful, snakes, ugly shoes (looking at all the people who wear birkenstocks — she doesn’t want to hear how comfy they are!!).

𝔦𝔫𝔱𝔢𝔯𝔢𝔰𝔱𝔰 • finding new music, general mischief, flying, shopping, potions, board games, and drinking expensive wine.
𝔭𝔢𝔯𝔰𝔬𝔫𝔞𝔩𝔦𝔱𝔶 • diplomatic, charming, sociable, idealistic, adventurous, quick-witted, flirtatious, opinionated, friendly, loyal, imaginative, wants to portray a certain image of care-free no matter how she feels, competitive.
𝔣𝔩𝔞𝔴𝔰 • impatient, manipulative, impulsive and lacks foresight, self-indulgent / spoiled, passive-aggressive instead of direct, overcritical but mostly to herself, major grudge holder, sometimes lies for no reason just because she can.

𝔰𝔶𝔫𝔬𝔭𝔰𝔦𝔰 • Anyone that doesn’t know Yvette might make the mistake of seeing her as a shallow rich girl who cares more about Kate Spade’s new line of handbags than her DADA homework, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. She does like the Muggle world and keeps close to her roots, with a slew of No-Maj music always blasting from her room, but she is a kind friend, killer party host, and carefree troublemaker. Never mind that she is haunted by a mysterious sickness that seems to take control of her senses every month. Yvette goes out of her way to make sure she is known for her wild antics, so that no one even remembers that something might be a-little-bit-more than a-little-bit-wrong with her. Although intelligent, Vee isn’t known for thinking ahead or believing that actions have consequences. That has bitten her in the ass on more than one occasion.

══════════════════════════════════════════════════ {.⋅ ϟ ⋅.} ═════════════════════════════════════════════════

𝐵𝐼𝒪𝒢𝑅𝒜𝒫𝐻𝒴

═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

⠀⠀⠀ ⠀Ah, Yvette. The pretty-little-rich girl lovingly donned Vee. She comes from an “old money” family in Connecticut, and even if the witches and wizards of Ilvermorny aren’t aware of muggle name brands, they can tell that this princess only wears it if it’s 𝑒𝓍𝓅𝑒𝓃𝓈𝒾𝓋𝑒. But there is more to her than being spoiled rotten . . . a lot more than she even knows. Things have been complicated in the Aoun household long before Vee’s vibrant laughter cascaded through their mansion’s marble walls. Oliver and Salima’s marriage was built on little more than a beautiful lie. Salima, for one, is not who she said she is. Though feigning to be a pretty socialite from a good family, she was wanted for murder and a string of other mysterious crimes in the magical community of the United Kingdon and States alike, due to her support and collaboration with the Death Eaters across the pond.

═══════════════════════════════════════════════

⠀⠀⠀ ⠀After faking her own death and wiping as many memories as she could, she took on life as a muggle and swore off using her magic, lest she be more easily detected. Salima had every intention of blending in and living out the rest of her days peacefully, but a simple life was not for her. She craved the money and power that her prestigious wizarding family had known all-too-well, so she manipulated her way into Oliver Aoun’s heart. He was immediately taken by the mysterious woman who wanted to keep their lives so private and secretive. It became almost like a game. To their Connecticut community, they were infamous. Rumors always seem to be passing from one whisper to the next about that reclusive couple and their three little children who arrived with little so much as a birth announcement. Are they spies? Terrorists? Diseased? Or worst of all . . . secretly poor, living in the dusty ruins of a once-great family home?

═══════════════════════════════════════════════

⠀⠀⠀ ⠀The Aouns did not care for the petty and empty words that floated through their town . . . especially Salima. She had far greater things to worry about. When her eldest daughter Violet showed signs of magic as a toddler, Salima paid a large sum of money for a charm that would keep it hidden within her. She even decided to put the same curse on her other two children before they even showed signs of magic. Anything to keep her own past far away. She could not risk imprisonment. And everything was better this way, with none of her family even knowing that another kind of world existed just beneath the surface.

═══════════════════════════════════════════════

⠀⠀⠀ ⠀It wasn’t until years later that Yvette realized how peculiar her childhood was: only playing with her siblings; shuffling from one tutor to the next so that none would stay too long and know too much; always getting what she asked for when it came to toys but never being allowed to explore the world. While nothing bad seemed to happen, it was a sheltered life. There was no extended family to laugh ― or even fight ― with over Christmas. No friends to play games with. She was not particularly unhappy but certainly not fulfilled by anything. Then, almost out of the blue, Oliver and Salima announced that the three Aoun children would attend boarding schools, as their tutors had done enough. So Viv and Vee went to an all-girls school in New York, and sweet little Vance found himself among an all-boys school in Massachusetts.

═══════════════════════════════════════════════

⠀⠀⠀ ⠀Vee should never have realized her magic; Ilvermorny should have not known to contact her. However, her power is not suppressed, and it is actually creating endless problems for her. Vee gets episodes of seizures . . . but of uncontrollable magic. It’s like she becomes overcome by her own gifts fighting that unknown charm, and they wrestle for dominance by taking over her body and spouting various spells. Her boarding school could not handle the outbursts, and they were ready to send her back to her home when a mysterious letter arrived in the mail. It was for a “special school” that would cater to children like Yvette. The staff asked little questions; after all, the paper was charmed to entice them. Then a wizard, under the guise of a teacher, came to visit Vee, and they told her the truth of the magical community.

═══════════════════════════════════════════════

⠀⠀⠀ ⠀Vee thinks her sweet muggle parents have no idea she is a witch. After all, as long as her boarding school was prestigious enough (and the pamphlet Vee made certainly made it seem so), why would they care where she went? They did not even blink twice when Yvette asked to transfer to another school. So now she parades around the hallways of Ilvermorny with the same, jaw-dropped awe of a muggleborn, having no idea that she is no such thing.

═══════════════════════════════════════════════

⠀⠀⠀ ⠀As for her condition, it can be a bit complicated. She used to have no semblance of control over it, but now, with the Headmaster’s help, she has learned some coping techniques and signs for when it may happen. Oddly enough, there may be some kind of connection to the moon. Neither of them knows that this all stems from Salima’s spell, but their efforts have at least given her a chance to try to get away from people before something bad happens.

═══════════════════════════════════════════════

⠀⠀⠀ ⠀Vee’s problem made her shy and nervous for many years. And yes, a few kids made fun of her for being such a freak. But now that she has learned to anticipate it a little better, she is a lot more confident and comfortable. Although not the most popular, she is at least decently well-liked. Her habit of supplying most parties’ firewhisky doesn’t hurt, either. She has always preferred her magical school to any other place she has been. If she can avoid going home, she does. Vee already struggled being Arab in her almost all-white Connecticut community. The way her family ostracized themselves only made things infinitely worse.

═══════════════════════════════════════════════

⠀⠀⠀ ⠀She has a bunch of random skills from the slew of tutors during her childhood and the very strict expectations from her parents (that she desperately wants to meet, even though she doesn’t admit it to herself). Yvette has learned at least the basics in anything from painting, piano, harp, and ballroom dancing to tennis, Latin, and Greek. Although she pretends to be carefree, she is deeply haunted by fears of hurting people or disappointing anyone. Vee likes to think she is taking care of people when she just foots the bill, but it can come across like her flashing her money around. She is certainly dependent upon her wealth and can let that privilege cloud her actions and words. After all, she was one of the first people in her year to begin partying, and she feels comfortable making reckless decisions or being a bad influence. Why would she believe in consequences when daddy’s money could fix up any problems that come her way?

═══════════════════════════════════════════════

⠀⠀⠀ ⠀More than anything, Vee likes being liked. She wants to do well in school for the praise from her teachers, not because she actually cares. (As such, her grades have been slipping this year as she spends more time getting into trouble and socializing.) She is a phenomenal storyteller, but unfortunately, such a skill has allowed her to be an exceptional liar. Sometimes she wonders if she could go a single day without telling a lie, for the way she can do it without thinking, even to the people she cherishes most. Additionally, Yvette never wants anyone to remember that something is wrong with her, physically or mentally, because she wants to be seen as the life of the party. So she hides her condition as best she can and tries to put on a happy face no matter how she is really feeling. And, lately, things aren’t all good. Her older sister ran away to Europe, and she refuses to talk to either of her younger siblings. All they got was a single text: “Mom knows what she did. Don’t come looking for me.” And Vee has a haunting suspicion that things in her parents’ marriage aren’t as peachy as they once were. With so much of her life in shambles, the last thing she wants to worry about is school. Ilvermorny is her home. It’s her escape. What will she do if the only place where she has truly felt happy falls apart too?

➞ Where do we begin in the relationship between Ivy and Yvette? Those first years at school. Ah, bliss. The innocent time in life before Ivy lost her mother . . . and her soul. Fellow first-year Thunderbirds who loved to share too many giggles and wide-eyes over all the magical wonders they were learning. Vee would happily cheer for Ivy out on the field, and Ivy laughed at Vee’s jokes even when they were terrible. She has always flitted on the outskirts of being a Madcap, and maybe she would have joined the four on their antics if it weren’t for that terrible instance. But that darkness descended after year three, and Ivy was never too interested in their secret group again. Vee has never been so sure of her own relationship with Ivy, as she has no clue of the growing crush the other girl has. But she does know that she has a strange way of worrying about Ivy. A protective instinct she’s never had before. It makes Vee all dizzy and confused. Vee blames it on what happened last year, when she was a prefect. The way everything that happened that night unfolded right in front of her. Sometimes she has the deep, haunted guilt that she could have stopped it. After all, one week before, that was the only moment she has ever felt brave. She, little princess Vee who can’t address anything, saw something worrisome go bump in the night. Gods know what overtook her, but when she found that dark and troublesome and intimidating Ivy up to no good, she didn’t even blink. She shoved the much-taller girl up against the wall and warned her to stop all this madness . . . for her own good. Somehow, the memory seems a little bit more vivid than it should be. But that warning didn’t matter, because everything still happened. Ivy’s best friend still got shipped off. Ivy still slipped further and further away. Starting to deal didn’t make anything easier for Vee. Getting high just makes her head spin. Ivy just makes her head spin. What is all of this madness?

These two are notorious for their back and forth banter, which is the reason they managed to score being Quidditch announcers together. Sure, maybe it would stop being so bias for Thunderbird if they weren’t in charge, but even the other houses have regretfully come around to appreciating their commentary. They’re always jamming to some obscure muggle music together and rushing to tell the other about this new song and that new album. Vee, however, does secretly understand what people mean when they say Chloe is “too much.” She would never say something to her friend’s face, and she is totally grateful for their bond. They have so much fun on and off announcing, around parties, or dancing in the common room. But, every once in a while, Vee has to take a step back . . . because she needs just a slightly smaller dose of Chloe in her day.

➞ Every once in awhile, against all odds, there is just someone who gets to you. They crawl under their skin. They’re like nails on a chalkboard. And maybe what they do isn’t even that bad, but since you’ve made up your mind, sometimes even their breathing can send you spinning in irritation. For Yvette Aoun, that person is Celandine Seabrooke. Sure, part of it started as her own bias against the Wampus house { due to her magical world lesson books telling her they were similar to Slytherins, the main propagators of the war in the UK, as well as Des making a snide comment every now and again }, but Vee quickly grew to have an intense dislike against the girl personally. Something about their own similarities and viewing Celandine as a social rival, likely a reflection of Vee’s own insecurities that she is too immature to see as a teenager. There’s nothing a pretty, well-liked girl is more afraid of than another pretty, well-liked girl, since Vee’s casual aloofness is actually very forced. She finds Cela to be way too over-dramatic and not nearly as interesting as she believes herself to be. Cela wants to have a grand and infamous reputation, sure, but Vee reads that as one who would do anything to be liked. Even if that is not how the Wampus girl really feels, Vee has seen too many of her mood swings or hot-and-cold antics to change her mind. As of such, the two have been known to get in a prank war or two throughout the years.

So she hasn’t been the nicest through the years because she thinks the Horned Serpent girl is just putting on a front. While that really isn’t the case with TJ, neither girl is keen on repairing their situation. Another layer of complication also comes from Thayer having a crush on Vee in the past, which TJ has a hard time of letting go.

➞ Anastasia already made Vee wary because she reminded her of a bully. Unnecessarily cruel. And while Anastasia was not one of the forces that tortured her in those first few years, she sometimes took a shot at Vee when she was already down, as she naturally tended to "trod on the weak." Additionally, Vee sides with Des in, well . . . everything in life. And Stassia was just on the opposite side of that. Vee thinks there is no excuse to be bitchy and standoffish to literally everything, which is exactly what Stassia likes to do. And this "new Stassia?" Vee calls bullshit on the whole thing. She doesn’t want to waste her time on toxic friends, which is exactly what something with Anastasia would be like.

➞ Risa and Vee are on good terms, especially as some of the few muggleborns in their year. They met on the train as huddled, nervous children that were still kind of scared of this new world and adventure. Even though they are not in each other’s closest circles of friends, they often interact and overlap in the same crowds. They also have a lovely habit of meeting up almost every school holiday. After all, the two of them are the best at shopping together, and there are so many muggle places they had missed while at Ilvermorny! Vee can get a bit jealous of Risa’s success in DADA, since it is one of the subjects she struggles most with. But she is too stubborn to ask her friend for help, instead opting for extra lessons with the professor. The girls tend to hang out and drink a glass { or more } of wine when missing home or feeling a little stressed. There is nothing quite as relaxing as Risa helping Vee decorate some of her clothes or gossiping about the recent potions club or dueling meetings. Just . . . please, Risa, get the cat off Vee’s lap! She’s gonna sneeze!
➞ Maybe last year they had a few months where there was a bit of an awkward strain / tiff because Vee and Evan had a small fling that ended pretty badly? And although they patched it up over the summer, Risa would get really annoyed if Vee flirted with Evan again at a party? { Which drunk Vee would totally do if she was feeling cute lmao oops } Of course, since they’re both SUPER passive-aggressive, it may still create some awkward tension from time to time.

She tries to get her to embrace change { like that will ever happen } and forget about that project because, damn it, it’s not due for two weeks! Just enjoy the moment and have another shot! They also tend to be each other’s go-to dueling partner because they both take it pretty seriously and push each other to be better.

Having come from money too, she doesn’t see the need for Vee to act so shallow and consumed. In fact, Vee really seems like a stuck-up snob to her. While Vee tends to be very apathetic about Adeline in return, the general student body tends to pin them against each other because they both come from high society in general.

➞ Abe and Vee were much closer in their first few years of Ilvermorny: huddling together in solidarity after being bullied by other studies, finding small ways to stand up for each other, and still trying to figure out who they wanted to be. Because of Abe’s family and Vee’s literal obsession with potions, she has always been secretly jealous. Abe’s done nothing special but Professor Weinberg literally is obsessed with him in class. How is that fair? But seeing him in the limelight made Vee want to get to know him all of those years ago, and she is grateful for her own jealous streak. Without him sticking up for her, she isn’t sure if she would have made it through years one and two. They cozied up over a good cauldron and have been potions partners ever since. However, with time, they found they had different interests and don’t cross paths socially very often. They both learned very different lessons from their time of being stomped on by others. Sometimes Vee worries about his black eyes and his spouts of anger . . . but who is she to save him? She knows he already resents that she has had a thing with one of the very boys who messed around with him, Hayden Benjelloun. And Vee doesn’t know how to get through something awkward like that.

➞ Ah, Nate Madison. What could Vee ever do except stare at that pretty face { and those perfect teeth } from afar? He’s the type of boy you don’t notice right away because he’s hanging out in the herbology greenhouse or stables. He’s thoughtful in class. So she skipped by first and second year without looking twice. But then his knobby knees suddenly weren’t so awkward. And his smile blew her away. But how could some silly, sporadic, out-of-control girl like Vee ever approach cool and collected boys like Nate? So she didn’t. The first time in her life she was too shy. She let herself crush on him from afar, never so much as telling her best friend Des, besides agreeing that “Yeah, sure, he’s cute.” Nice and genuine boys like him don’t need to be ruined by trainwrecks like Vee. She knows that in her heart. Maybe she is doomed to always fawn over him secretly . . . so deep inside she hardly admits it to herself. Except Vee has a super horrible habit of getting injured and ending up in his care in the infirmary. She can hardly face him in the halls after he patched up another one of her nasty scrapes. When will the silly girl learn?
➞ I would imagine that Emory and Vee could have a lot in common and get along super well. Except they aren’t very close because Vee is embarrassed about her crush on Nate and would sometimes avoid Emory for this reason.

➞ Lena and Vee are friendly but not overly so. When Vee was plagued by the worst of her illness, Lena was one of the few outside her own house that didn't think she was a freak worth avoiding. They never grew close, but as Vee's tendency for trouble grew, she liked to bring others along with her. It was at one of her own parties that she perhaps was not the best of influences on Lena, though she had good intentions. With Lena's brother egging it on, and Lena's own tendency to wanting to be liked coming into play, it was an easy game to win. But Vee knows not to push it too far. They are both very guarded, which they tend to respect. It keeps them more like acquaintances. Happy to say hello. Would always chat at a gathering. But little more, until Lena started to hook up with Adrian. Vee always was rooting for them; it would be nice for someone sweet to hang around the group, instead of one of the idiots he sometimes brings by. But it seems like it was not meant to be. This is Adrian, after all. Impossible to tie down. It didn't sour things between Lena and Vee, even though it can still be complicated with Adrian. At least, it hasn't soured them yet.

➞ For many, Adrian is the boy you love to hate, but for Vee, it’s nothing but love . . . even if there is a serious edge of competition, rivalry, and harsh jokes in their relationship. To an outsider, it might even seem like Adrian and Vee don’t like each other because of how mean they are. But the two of them know that there is a playfulness to it all.

They collided in the simplest of ways. Adrian is a bit too good at sneaking into the other common rooms { and we all know why insert eye roll here }, and Des is about as friendly as anyone can get. Suddenly she was inviting Adrian along to see some secret thing or another, and Vee just embraced that the annoying little prick would be there. Then one day, he wasn’t so annoying. It took months of hanging out to realize they were best friends, but now the four of them are certainly inseparable.

For better or for worse, Adrian and Vee are always pushing each other. They really need to stop playing “What are the odds?” because even if they don’t say the same number, one of them usually ends up doing the stupid thing. These two are always competing to outdo each other in "crazy." Their antics are kind of why the group starting drinking and dabbling in other such things. { Let’s not tell anyone about that one time Adrian and Vee dropped acid in her Hampton house and spent twelve hours going literally insane on her couch. } But it’s too late to turn back now.

In the last year, Vee has been able to relate to Adrian's abandonment issue a lot more than she’d like to due to her own older sister disappearing. It was actually a turning point in their relationship. Although they have been through a lot together that is fun and hilarious and campy, they finally shared a moment of raw vulnerability with one another. Because of that, they’ve never been closer. Vee and Adrian have absolutely no romantic feelings for each other and would never cross that boundary, but neither would find it weird if they woke up with a killer hangover in the same bed. They both would have no doubts that nothing happened, and their lack of physical boundaries make them super comfortable with getting high and cuddling on the couch or punching each other playfully when the other says something just dumb as fuck. They call each other out on their bullshit and keep it real. And honestly, if something happened to either of them, the other would drop everything in an instant to help out them out. No questions asked { even if there’s a dead body }.

➞ Who ever could have guessed that you could find your soulmate at school? Certainly not Vee. And no, not your romantic-getting-married-and-riding-off-into-the-sunset soulmate. No, no. This is all about your platonic-everything-just-clicks other half. Desdemona Callisto, the piece to complete Vee’s confused and silly and tattered and wild heart. They met on the train in their first year, when Yvette was little more than a shaking little baby who was overwhelmed by the magical world. She was mostly huddled next to Risa Lane, fellow muggleborn, but everything changed when the beautiful and care-free Des slid into their compartment. “Aren’t you! So excited! For this adventure!”

She was so happy that she could hardly get her sentences out. Her curls were bouncing and twirling as she stuck her hands and nose against the glass, desperate to capture every image along the trip up the mountains. With her happiness lighting up the whole train car, Vee found herself miraculously at ease. This Des girl was right. What an adventure!

When they each pledged their hearts to Thunderbird, it was not an immediate friendship, yet they were always quite fond of each other. But that first year was when Yvette’s condition was at its absolute, uncontrolled worst. Vee was a little..predisposed. She could hardly call it sneaking around since all of the professors and Headmaster knew she had to flee through the castle to try and quell the darkness that kept spinning out of her. But to the keen eye of Des, who often went on her own undetected travels past curfew, it seemed to be a kindred spirit of rule-breaker and voyageur. She plotted in one of her journals of the strange way Vee seemed to come and go with the moon. Such a peculiar girl. Des almost never saw Vee get bullied in person { Vee’s attackers had a habit of concealing their cruelty too well for that }, but she made a point to stand up for her when people talked about her behind her back. As her friendship with Rosalie grew, Des remembered the lonely look in Vee’s eye at the dining hall table. So finally, she sat down next to her and invited her to “come see something amazing with Rosie and me.” Vee couldn’t say yes fast enough.

And the rest, as they say, is history.

With the confidence found in herself and in finally having friends, Vee began to blossom into who she is today: fun-loving, life-living, and quite a troublemaker. If she isn’t laughing, she’s probably smirking. Des and Vee can almost never be found apart. Because Vee doesn’t know of the charm that is suppressing her magic, she can struggle in basic skills and grow easily frustrated. She thinks it’s her own ineptitude. But Des is always there with a confident smile and boost. Thanks to her love and help, Vee has learned to apparate and be an animagus { even if she does still fail at some ridiculously basic things . . . it’s part of why she likes brewing potions so much more than spell-casting }. And that was how their antics grew to such wonderous and silly proportions.

The whole Callisto family has become accustomed to Vee coming in and out of their house. Vee jokingly calls Des’s parents mom and dad too. Except these days, her own home is so dysfunctional that she even sometimes means it. They’re the only stable family she has ever known.

Sometimes these two mischevious fiends can bring out the best in each other, while other times . . . they can encourage those trouble-making aspects that maybe shouldn’t be so indulged. But what is the point of being young if you can’t be a little dumb sometimes too? After all, if they weren’t dumb enough to sneak out and explore that weird and spooky mountaintop, they never would have found the abandoned observatory that feels truly like home. Vee wouldn’t trade anything in the world for those nights where the hawk carries her little fox to the top for stargazing.

➞ Her star princess and sugar plum, Vee has a million pet names for her beloved Magda. When Des invited Vee to join in her adventures with Magda, Yvette’s life changed forever. She was a lonely girl at Ilvermorny; her only friend was a forest nymph. But suddenly these two girls welcomed her with open arms, and things were never the same.

If anyone asked Vee to describe her relationship with Magda in one word, she’d probably say warmth. Sure, her friend can have a tiny bit of a superiority complex, but Yvette knows better. They have both seen each other to the core of who they are. In fact, Magda is the most helpful and caring person when it comes to Vee’s condition. She is the one who convinced Des to follow after Vee on some hollow full moon night, witnessing first hand the way that something takes over Vee’s mind and body and sends her spinning into chaos. She is the one who leaves little cups of charmed-to-stay-at-the-perfect-temperature tea next to Vee’s bed in the morning when she knows she’s had another terrible night. Whether it is from her own gifts or just their bond, Magda can read Yvette like an open book. And behind Desdemona’s disbelieving back, they often try all kinds of silly potions and astrology remedies to help Vee feel better. Her condition has improved over the last few years. Who’s to say that these haven’t helped at least a little?

Vee, in turn, has always been there for ways that Magda's sister Audrey was not. During school breaks, she has been known to stop by without warning to try and take some weight off her shoulders. Somehow, just when she is at her breaking point, a little rasp comes at her front door, and Magda can’t even answer it before Yvette is bursting inside, singing, “Honey! I’m home!”

They have a relationship that can’t be defined, and sometimes, they can spend hours together without even speaking. The world makes more sense when they’re together. Troubles don’t seem so scary. Obstacles don’t seem so large. In a life where both of them tend to push everyone away and project a sense of ease in everything they do, Magda and Vee are each other’s safe space for the real, scared, and insecure girl underneath.

But there is a storm brewing for them ahead. Although neither could ever predict it, Magda is actually the key to Yvette discovering what is wrong with her. Somewhere along the winding journey that is this next school year, she may finally put the pieces together of what terrible thing Vee’s own mother did to her all of those years ago. But how will she break such news? And does ruining Vee’s perception of her own family get her any closer to fixing what is controlling her?

HIT that point at which your nose can find it's way back into your books and emerge from
the comfort of your dormitory for a brief juncture. With the first week of school complete
and classes swiftly underway, Headmistress Afeefa has canceled all classes today calling
all students to come together for a day of Ilvermorny pride. Kicking off with a tailgating
session on the outskirts of the Quidditch pitch, the day will entail water-riding
competitions for those who feel their newly learned spells will help them master the lake,
winged horse racing out by the Magical Creatures Barn, Duelling matches hosted by the
Duelling team, and Quodpot, leading up to the big Thunderbird vs. Horned Serpent
Quidditch Game. Post-game, you are all invited to gather in the Great Hall for the
celebratory feast of the new year, the conception of your studies, the year of the pig.
Bring empty stomachs and link arms with good friends, this will be the year the students
of Ilvermorny thrive.
