once again, hello to my favorite thread.
There are so many wonderful characters around site right now and I honestly want to list all of them, but I need to be sleeping soon, so instead I will mention a couple of them and come back later with more

I've really been enjoying seeing astrocat's Ashley Fox navigate her way around Hogwarts these past two terms. We know gryffindors to usually be the outspoken kids, so it's so refreshing to see a Ravenclaw actively defy and constantly put themselves in the line of danger in order to stand up for what they believe is right. I'm already so enamored by this character's growth and cannot wait to see what else is in store.

Another one that has been particularly fun to stalk watch navigate this term is Felixir's Nemesis Upstead. My brain is not big enough for Nemesis Upstead. I'm so taken by the way they answer questions in class, their thought processes, and these mind games they play on all those around them. Yet again, Felix has created another beautifully complex and captivating character.

Finally, I love, love, love Bryn's first year, Eden Tilly. This character is so unapologetically herself. I think what I appreciate the most about Eden is how her emotions manifest themselves. She feels her rage so authentically and FULLY, without restraint. The best part (selfishly, for me) is that she's only a first year, which means we get to spend so much MORE time with her and I'm really looking forward to seeing how she continues to grow throughout the rest of her time at Hogwarts.
