Twigs snapped and crunched under her feet as she walked along the edge of the Forbidden Forest.
Dorcas found herself here, curious to see what was truly hiding amongst the trees. Dorcas found herself being lured farther deeper into the forest, letting her fingers run softly along the plants. She breathed in the clean, misty air as she walked. She wasnât sure what she was looking for or why she was in there but it was cleansing to be in total silence. She took a long, deep breathe. Closing her eyes before continuing her walk. Her heart stopped when she heard the sound of someone elseâs footsteps behind her as she continued through the misty trees. Stopping in her tracks, Dorcas pulled her wand from her coatâ moving slowly as to not alert the person behind her what her intentions were. With a quick pivot, Dorcas readied her wand and pointed it at the person she saw with a deadly glare.Â
âPetrificâ,â she started to shout before stopping mid-curse when she made eye contact, âWhat the hell do you think youâre doing!?â
cleonâs return to hogwarts after the break had been postponed by a few days. there were just some duties that the heir of the burke family had to tend to and none of them were really pleasant or something he could talk about to just anyone. truth to be told, cleon wasnât too happy with the fact he missed out on half of his break and on top of all, he had to go straight back to classes. catching up on his homework wasnât hard, no, it was just.. awfully boring. he hadnât had a good night of sleep in a few days now and there he was, trying to focus on the book on his lap while having his ear talked off so early in the morning. âoh, come on, love. you shouldâve been able to tell by now - iâm not listening. quit your blabbering.â
the slytherin common room was always two things: quiet and damp. dorcas didnât mind her common room, but she wished desperately that it had the warmth that gryffindor and hufflepuff common rooms had. nevertheless, the slytherin common room was perfect for studying. no one ever spoke and when they did, it was hushed and hidden. today seemed to be different when she spotted a second year talking the earth off of cleon burke. unfortunately for dorcas she could not stop the roll her eyes at the words that cleon burke spoke. his shrill voice that cracked every other word, invaded her ears. she always related his voice to nails on a blackboard-- headache inducing and disgusting. dorcas casted her eyes towards where burke was saddled with a book and a pest who was talking and talking. the second year that cleon had just verbally dominated went to open their mouth, but dorcas spoke up first. âoh cleo, would you just shut up already. it wonât kill you to be nice to the second years. theyâre just excited to be back,â she spat, before turning back to her parchment.Â
( cisfemale | she/her | tati gabrielle ) ââ isnât that DORCAS MEADOWES? yeah that is them, sitting there at the SLYTHERIN table with those other SIXTH years. when sybill looks into that crystal ball of hers, she sees dark lipstick, tea with lots of milk, a girl being pushed into a box, sun dried fruits, Spanish moss obscuring a home, and well loved vinyl records. anyway iâve heard theyâre pretty AMBITIOUS, OBSESSIVE, and HUMOROUS. apparently theyâre FOR THE LIGHT and PUREBLOOD but iâm sure thatâs not related.
hi hello hey! just to get it out of the way first, how many of yâall have been watching those harry potter tik toks with the love potions and everything but i have been becoming deeper and deeper sucked into that side of tik tok.Â
anyways, here are some little headcanons about dorcas! iâm currently in the process of writing her full bio, but here are the main points.Â
she has one sibling, an older brother who is the apple of her parentâs eyes. he is exactly who they want him to be. the meadowes family is prominent within blood purist rings and her older brother, avery, is everything that her parents wished she was. ever the black sheep of her family, dorcas is always trying to get out of getting mixed in with the venit tempestas crowd.Â
she is keeping her alliance with âfor the lightâ very quiet, because she knows that if her parents found out they would immediately pull here out of hogwarts.
dorcas is incredibly head strong and ambitious, but her ambitious nature can manifest into obsession when things do not go the way that she plans.Â
dorcas is a member of the slug club and the duelling club. she is also on the main commentary panel for quidditch.
dorcas is fiercely loyal to her friends and does everything in her power to keep them happy and safe.Â
at the end of it all, dorcas is waiting for graduation and then she can finally be the person she wants to be during this war. she knows that she can not be on the wrong side of history.
anddddd.... here are some plots iâm looking for so if you are at all interested, shoot me a message on discord!Â
her main group of friends. the people she cares the most about. can be from any house!Â
any plot with fellow slytherins and what they think about her since she is a pureblood who is friends with muggle borns and half bloods! literally everything and anything with fellow slytherins! maybe their suspicious of her or their families are friends, just give me the ANGST!
her favorite duelling partner!Â
anyone who is âfor the lightâ who knows she is keeping it secret!Â
someone in âfor the lightâ who wants dorcas to spy on the venit tempestas crowd!Â
and as a long shot....Â
a good, old fashioned exâs plot bc i love to be in pain.
