The oldest of three children, Rosalie had a pretty happy, “normal” childhood, so of course she was surprised to find out, when she turned eleven, that she was magical and needed to attend a magical school called Hogwarts. Sure, sometimes weird things happened around her - like the time she was standing up to the kid who had been bullying her little brother Trevor, and the bully’s hair fell out, but they’d all thought that was just some random coincidence, probably just something wrong with the kid’s shampoo. Apparently not.
And so she attended Hogwarts and was sorted into the house of Gryffindor. A few years later, Trevor also received a Hogwarts letter, and a few years after that, so did Conrad, and both of them were sorted into Gryffindor as well.
During the summer before her sixth year, she reconnected with one of her Muggle friends from childhood, Nigel Dashwood. They continued to write to each other when she went off to school, sending her letter first to her parents so they could send it through the Muggle post to keep magic a secret, and met up during holidays. Quite soon, they fell madly in love, and by the time Rosalie graduated from Hogwarts, they were engaged and eloped to the United States. The night before they left, Rosalie finally told him about the magical world, and though he was shocked and disbelieving at first, eventually he accepted/brushed it off, saying that he just wanted to be with her.
Nigel got a job at his family’s tech firm, while Rosalie attended the Salem Wizarding University, double majoring in Secondary Education and No-Maj Studies. She had found the wizarding perspective on non-magical people mostly interesting but at times infuriating, and she wanted to help foster more understanding and acceptance for the differences among people.
Rosalie and Nigel’s first and only child together, Seraphina Rebekah, was born on 23 November 2090.
Rosalie graduated from university in 2092, and then she continued right into her graduate studies. Nigel’s parents were a great help in babysitting the rambunctious little girl while Nigel and Rosalie worked, with Rosalie adding the job of Teaching Assistant to her schedule.
It was also during this time that Seraphina began showing signs of unintentional magic. Nigel’s parents brushed off the weird occurrences, but Nigel grew ever more irritated hearing about how the electricity in the house short-circuited or the cookie jar suddenly shattered out of nowhere. Nigel and Rosalie had many arguments over it, which led to long periods of time where they barely said two words to each other.
Over time this became routine. They both spent more time at work than with each other. Rosalie had completed her graduate studies and in 2095, accepted a position as an Associate Professor of No-Maj Studies at Salem WU. When they spent time with their daughter, it was usually apart - though over time, Nigel began to spend less and less time with her too, focusing on his job.
It all came to a head one morning, with Sera at her grandparents’ house, when Nigel said he wanted a divorce. They had their biggest argument yet, though, unlike most of their other arguments, it eventually ended with them both agreeing.
It was a long and painful process, especially for their daughter, but finally, in the spring of 2103, at the end of Sera’s first year at Ilvermorny, the separation was finalized. Nigel officially moved out, and has not had a lot of contact with either of them since then.
Rosalie remained in Massachusetts for the next year, allowing Sera to remain at Ilvermorny, but long before the end of that year came, she knew she needed a change for herself and her daughter. In 2104, she took a job in the UK as a private tutor, and enrolled Sera in Hogwarts. Sera was not pleased about any of it, but Rosalie was sure she would come around. She was of course immensely pleased when her daughter was sorted into the same house as she was in back in the day.
Then, she heard about a job opening for Muggle Studies Professor at Hogwarts. On a whim, she applied, not really thinking anything much would come of it. But then she got an interview, and then after that came a job offer, and she happily accepted. Sera, of course, was less than pleased, but Rosalie was excited to begin another new chapter where she could be closer to her daughter and also do the work that she loved.
