What is your character’s secret?
When Scorpius was younger his grandfather, Lucius, branded him with a Dark Mark on his left arm, replicating those of the Death Eaters, to make sure Scorpius never forgot where he came from. Ashamed of it, he now uses a concealing charm to hide the scar.
Does anyone besides X know about it?
Yes, Scorpius’ grandfather Lucius Malfoy knows. His father, Draco, is also aware but they have not told his mother Astoria. None of his friends or peers know though, and he’d prefer to keep it that way.
How desperate are they do keep their secret a secret? Why?
Scorpius is ashamed of his heritage, knowing that the part his family played in both Wizarding Wars was wrong. He hates that he is associated with Death Eaters, not hesitating to hurt anyone who names him as such, which scares him because he knows that hurting people and being cruel and prejudice makes him just as bad as they were.
What would your character do if someone found out about their secret?
He would be embarrassed and, depending on who it was he would either beg them to keep his secret or beat them until he made sure they did.
What are the potential repercussions of everyone knowing their secret?
Scorpius already has a reputation of being a bad guy, some even naming him as a Death Eater. If people found out about the scar, he knows they would see it and definitely make those judgements about him. He would be scared that he might lose people he really loves, like his friends and girlfriend.
Albus’ best friend, Brennan, killed himself over the summer. Albus had known he was depressed for a while and didn’t tell anyone about it and after everyone assumed his death was an accident, Albus hid the fact that it was suicide from everyone.
2. Does anyone (besides X) know about it?
No one else knows about it. He’s terrified that if anyone knew, they would not only hate him for not helping Brennan, but they wouldn’t remember Brennan like he wanted to be remembered.
3. How desperate are they do keep their secret a secret? Why?
Albus is desperate to keep his secrets. He’d probably do whatever X tells him to that doesn’t involve hurting someone too badly. He doesn’t want anyone to think of him like he thinks of himself and since Brennan had tried so hard to hide his depression from everyone, Albus want’s to continue making people believe it was an accident so they’ll remember Brennan like how he wanted to be remembered.
4. What would your character do if someone found out about their secret?
If someone found out his secret, he’d probably completely avoid that person for a long time. He might freak out or break down, terrified that the person would hate him. Depending on how many people found out, he’d probably hide out in his dorm for a pretty long time.
5. What are the potential repercussions of everyone knowing their secret?
He’s afraid that if everyone knew that Brennan’s death was a suicide, they’d hate him and be disappointed in him. Everyone would know that the son of Harry Potter had let his best friend die. Everyone would also think of Brennan as the ‘kid who committed suicide’ rather than how he wants them to think of him.

What is your character’s full name? Lily Grace Hookum
Where did their name come from? When Daisy Hookum gave birth to her first and only child, there was a flickering moment where she was drawn out of her post-traumatic stress and thrown back into the real world. During this time, she was hit with a whirlwind of emotions, and one of the most prominent ones was the great loss she felt over the deaths of all those she once loved. In a desperate attempt to pay homage to them, she named her daughter after one of her closest friends, Lily Potter, and her mother, Grace Hookum.
Do they hate it? Love it? Why? Now that Daisy is back to her tragic self, it is not uncommon for her to mistake her own daughter for her dead friend. To Lily, this used to be incredibly frustrating, and when she was young, she grew to hate her name, but now that Rosie has explained to her what wonderful women both Lily Potter and Grace Hookum were, Lily feels honored to be named after them. She holds her head high when explaining where her name comes from, and now she absolutely loves it.
What is your character’s closest relationship? Teddy Lupin. Hands down, no questions asked, Lily feels closer to Teddy Lupin then she does to anyone else, including her own mother. Teddy has been her best friend since she was just five years old, and they’ve basically grown up together to became as close as siblings. True, she has a close relationship with her mum’s nurse, Rosie, for she has become almost like a second mother to her, but Teddy is the one that has just...always been there for her, and she wouldn’t have it any other way.
Has your character ever dated? Who? How did it end? Lily’s dated two men and one woman, and one of them ended with her being unfaithful. Lily has an awful tendency to be non-committal, and sadly this also goes for relationships for her. She was only 16 when she dated the first male, a Ravenclaw, and that only lasted two months before she dumped him for just being annoying. She was 18 when she dated the female, a Hufflepuff, and that lasted five months before the female dumped her for allegedly cheating on her. She was 22 when she dated the second male, and that relationship ended when Lily hooked up with a female she met in a bar after four months. Really, there’s only one person she wants to be with that she would commit to fully, but she’s not sure that can ever happen.
What was your character’s favorite subject in school and why? Defence Against the Dark Arts. Quite literally the only reason was because she was outstandingly amazing at it.
What is your character’s dream job? An auror. She is currently on her way to becoming one, but it is sadly an incredibly long and drawn out process, and it’s taking her a long time, hence why she is assistant healer at Hogwarts at the moment.
What is your character’s relationship to their family? Lily only has her mother left, and that relationship is shaky. Her mother can barely register her as her daughter, and this has put strain on the two. Lily grew to be angry with her mother when she was younger, but now that she’s older, she’s just sad that she can never have a mother like everyone else’s.
Has your character ever played sports? Which ones? How did it go? She played Quidditch when she was at Hogwarts, and she was pretty damn good, too. She was a beater, and she loved it, and she was quite popular amongst her classmates for being a redeeming factor of the Gryffindor team.
What does your character like to do in their free time? Read, practice her magic, drink coffee...Lily doesn’t really have much spare time anymore, using it all to contribute to the auror process, but the little time she does have she uses to do the latter, mostly. Oh, and of course, she spends time with Teddy and the other Potter/Weasley’s.
