Date: 2012-02-21 04:36 am (UTC)Originally, because the very first RP I was in split in two and we were encouraged to pick up another character, and a friend at the time wanted a wife for Bill. But all times since then it's been because I've always been able to create varieties on this very elaborate, rich backstory which I really love.
Her and Bill dancing at their wedding. SAPPY!
Her family home in France! Six years ago a friend of mine loaned me a concept from a fic she'd written and I rolled it like a snowball down a mountain until it grew into a very important part of who she is as I play her.
At NS I loved all the banter with the Weasleys - Charlie's tent entry cracked me up!
The first time I played her it was at a time where I got to write her when she was having her first baby, and that was a tearful one.
Well, I THINK she got along with Molly, pretty well? :D Maybe not at the very start of her marriage, but by the time we were writing them, yes?

Date: 2012-02-21 05:07 am (UTC)LOL, errrr, honestly it was because everyone and their aunt was holding/playing at DTW and I felt left out, so I hunted for a canon name.
Most of her canon is actually exposition for Harry's benefit, imo. Though I'm totally amused that Ron's all about her curvy parts.
She'd never do Gold Standard, but there ARE scandalous photos of her that Hamish took.
Her pension for dirty jokes and flirting with everyone, being a total tease.
Nothing so far, but it does make me sad the way she uses banter to try to keep sadness at bay; the way she's on the verge of being in a place where she could have a healthy relationship again, but is still too hesitant to truly put herself out there?
Jack, of course, but I think if she got to know Charlie they might actually get along too.

Theodore
Date: 2012-02-21 10:49 am (UTC)I picked him up at the first game I'd ever moderated because he got dropped, and I thought oh no, dropped characters are so sad! I felt bad for the girl who played Millicent who he'd been friendly with, and the girl who played Morag, who he'd fooled around with the year before. I'm really glad I did though, because I wound up looooving him.
Um, I think he shows up TWICE in the books, so let's say the first time? ROFL!
His time in Portugal, specifically his mentor Sylvia and her lover, Mauricio.
How completely baffled he is by Padma's poetic nature, but how drawn to it he is; it's very opposites-attract.
How broken his relationships with his father and his brother Joseph are, how he feels both superior and inferior to them at the same time.
August, maybe? It's harder since you don't play enough Harry Potter. One day, maybe I will seduce you to one more game...

Date: 2012-02-21 11:31 pm (UTC)I think he's just a jerk who's mean to Alicia Spinnet in canon? I'll steal Laura's adaptation of 'Favorite Moment in Game' - - when he and Adrian decided to have a fist fight because they were bored. IDGI, but I've seen several guys do it.
His incongruous and yet absolute superstition that he would kill a woman by getting her pregnant. I mean, there's a lot of sad history with it, and hell, it might actually be true, but I enjoy that he takes it for fact, rather than a series of unfortunate coincidences.
Any and all interactions with Marcus.
Nothing. I mean, he's had a lot of crap things happen in his life, some out of his control and some in, but fundamentally I don't think he's much of a crier, and it transfers to me. I know he gets very frustrated when people twist his words to a different meaning, or misinterpret them accidentally.
Talia. He likes brunettes and breasts and sassypants attitudes, and doesn't judge and is generally mesmerized by pretty women w/o hypnosis anyhow, so... he's game. :P I know we were talking last night about how game we'd be for Hayley in general, but this actually applies on an IC level as well, I swear.
