[quote][center]───────────────────────────────[b]4[/b]─────────────────────────────[/center][indent][b][i][size=150]STORY.[/size][/i][/b][/indent][indent][indent][quote][size=85]Once upon a time, a pair of brothers decided to go on a trip together.

Nolen and Léo Charlton were once as close as could be. Léo decided to accompany Nolen on his adventures throughout France. There, they both supposedly found love. Nolen, in international student Fira Aster, and Léo in a lovely lady named Aveliine Lowell. While Nolen went back to England, accompanied by Fira, Léo opted to stay with Aveliine and start a family with her in France.

Together, they had two children - twins, Adalene and Lukas. Their family lived happily, oblivious to the fact that Adalene was a Seer. Unbeknownst to them, the Seer gene ran flush through their family lines, and Adalene fell victim to old beliefs, disappearing suddenly when they were fifteen, presumed to be dead. Their twin, Lukas, fell into a deep depressive slumber, incomplete with his other half nowhere to be found.

Fifteen years later, Lukas had nearly forgotten about Adalene's disappearance. Lukas was happy, with a woman named Ines Plantagenet and her child, when he one day found out about how Adalene had really died - murdered by poison, with malicious intent. He had figured they were dead, but this news hit him in the face like a ton of bricks, and he went mad, overcome with grief and fury. His relationships with his parents and Ines became very unstable, and soon, he had fallen back into his old ways.

Lukas's uncle, Nolen, lived quite the opposite life. Nolen and Fira had two children, Everet and Carina. In Carina's fourth year, she met a particularly enchanting Vee Berkshire, and the three of them instantly clicked with each other. Everet, Carina, and Vee were three peas in a pod - you never got far without seeing one with the others. The trio continued to stay and were close all throughout schooling and graduation, and often still spend many hours of their time together talking.

Carina and Vee got married ten years after they had left Hogwarts, and lived together happily with their child Peyton. Everet, on the other hand, met a woman named Charmaine Silverstein some time later, and was instantly charmed. The two were wed three years later, and had two children, Adeline and Everly.

The Charlton family moved around quite a lot, and this became a key factor in Everly's love for traveling and visiting other places. Finally, they would settle in Canterbury, when Everly was six.

Even though Adeline and Everly were ten years apart in age, they got along well. They became much closer as Everly aged and matured over the years, Everly often confiding in and going to Adeline for advice, regarding her as the person whom she is closest with.

Several years later, Everly would receive her Hogwarts acceptance letter.[/quote][table][tr][td][quote][b][i][size=125]FIRST MAGIC.[/size][/i][/b]
[reducio][size=85]She’d been looking for a small garment among the boxes that had gotten lost during the family’s move when she had a sort of flash, her mind acting on its own; as quick as it had come, it was gone. She found herself on the floor and not a single scratch on her. And somehow, she’d had some sort of feeling just a second ago that she would end up like this, the object in her hand. Her gaze turned down to her hand—it was sitting right there, the floral hat she had been looking for.[/size][/reducio][/quote][/td][td][quote][b][i][size=125]DEVELOPMENT.[/size][/i][/b]
[reducio][size=85]this is a generalized version of my plan for everly, though it is up to (many) changes, so it won’t be concrete

[b]FIRST.[/b] (shy, confused, curious, excited, bubbly)
extremely shy, terrified of people. becomes more confident after anxiety attacks frequent as an attempt to stop them from occurring because she believes they stem from her lack of confidence. in turn, she becomes the opposite of what she had been.

[b]SECOND.[/b] (confident [real not fake!!], outgoing, loud, oblivious)
her turning point is around january, when the incident in the lavatories causes her confidence to start actually growing. the rest of the year is just a constant battle between airheadedness and social anxiety. starts to socialize more on her own and become a lot more outgoing.

[b]THIRD.[/b] (stoic, overthinking, reserved, standoffish, snappy)
start of gender crisis (and sexuality later on due to questioning her feelings) as well as maturity. confidence starts to deplete beginning of year because she feels unstable in who she is, and mood swings frequent. she begins to become more closed off and quiet.

[b]THIRD/FOURTH SUMMER.[/b] entire character turning point. after being able to identify and label themselves, she begins to feel a lot more comfortable in herself, therefore more confident as a whole

[b]FOURTH.[/b] flirty!everly arc?? maybe??[/size][/reducio][/quote][/td][/tr][/table][/indent][/indent][center]─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────[/center][right][b][i][size=85]story | 4[/i][/b][/right]
