Ryland’s wand has always felt like a little bit more than he could comfortably handle. It had been handed down to him from his great-uncle who died a bachelor before Ryland was born. The 13 1/4 inch rowan wand with a phoenix feather core had been a lifelong companion for Sorrel Greengrass, but Ryland spent his school days wondering if the wand was really meant for him. Perhaps the two men had some skills in common, but the wand has always felt too long and slightly cumbersome in his hands. Actually it is only recently that Ryland has held it for the first time and had picking it up feel like home. Then again, he’d spent months with out. Perhaps that change in perspective is why Ryland is starting to discover skills he never actually knew he had.

❤: Opinion on love

Sirius knows it exists, but he’s often had to dig for it in his own life. He wasn’t born into a family that really seemed to love him, so he had to find a family of his own. He’s never experienced romantic love in the traditional sense, just lust from people who lasted a night or maybe childhood crushes that lasted a few weeks back in school. No, he’s poured most of his own love into his friendships because at this point, he’s not sure he’ll ever get it, especially when the lists of ways you “know” you’re in love he’s seen fit too well into his friendships. No, if Sirius can’t tell the difference, he’ll leave it alone.

What would make your character happy?

Back in August, if you had asked Ryland this question, his eyes would have gone wide and he would have stumbled his way through a partial answer about continuing to have good job security, maybe finding someone and settling down, and having a stable, dependable life. Yes, his dreams are not large, but they were enough..

Now? Ryland can’t even imagine that life being possible. He lost his position on the team at Gringotts he’d worked so hard to reach. He can’t imagine anyone dealing with him and all the things he feels like are wrong right now. Then stability? Dependability? Those seem awfully far away.

The judges leave Raisa a beautiful hand mirror so she can admire herself. But when she looks into it, she sees herself old and withered. Even setting the mirror down doesn't shake the image from your mind. It follows her now, from mirror to mirror.

Thanks, I hate it. Quite the choice. I mean I am one hundred and twenty now, so I might as well look it.

Aphrodite -- Phro most of the time. She’s not a nice kneazle, but Reggie loves her with every fiber of his being. She was named such because he declared her “the most beautiful goddess” he’d ever seen.

Reggie Headcanons

Reggie is 6′3″.

Reggie is left-handed.

Reggie’s favorite Quidditch team is the Tutshill Tornados. Yes, he knows they haven’t won the league in ages. He doesn’t want to talk about it.

Reggie currently has two tattoos. The first is a pin up design of a veela (similar to this but a veela obviously) on his right calf. She leans back, waves, and winks when she realizes someone is looking at the tattoo. The other he was got when he was a bit tipsy but honestly loves the fish that lazily swims around on his left forearm more than his first.

✤♞♛

✤ : Do they believe in luck?

To some extent, yes. Ryland sees things like luck and ability as somewhat fixed. Either you have talent or you don’t. Either you are a lucky person or you’re not. It’s a sliding scale, of course, and Ryland doesn’t base his life around it, but it is what it is.

♞: Favorite animal(s)

Ryland suspects he’d be in trouble if he didn’t say Pippin, but generally speaking he’s a fan of smaller animals. He didn’t enjoy Care of Magical Creatures enough to seek out large animals, but pets and small things are okay by him, especially if they’re the kind willing to curl up on his lap.

♛ : Opinion on outer beauty

Ryland isn’t going to say it isn’t a factor. Pretty people catch everyone’s attention, as far as he can tell. That said, Ryland doesn’t necessary spend a lot of thought on it. He hasn’t ever truly dated seriously, and his shorter casual relationships were with people he liked well enough. Some of those partner’s beauty matter more than others, but he feels like that’s true for most people’s dating history.
