Perhaps you all haven't heard~~, or perhaps you had mistaken it with one of my other near-gallivants down the aisle,~~ but I would like to announce that I am truly, happily getting married.

You may begin calling me Mrs. Gray at your earliest convenience.

~~The ring is perhaps a mite smaller than--~~ The ring is to die for, of course. I will follow with photos as soon as possible.

Can one honestly get sick from simply staying in a house all day?

If so, I imagine I shall never recover from this.

[NICHOLAS] I need you to tell me something. [/NICHOLAS]

I never thought I would rue the day I had to go shopping for 12 hours on end, until now. ~~My mother won't even let me choose a~~ ~~I don't understand why she's made me come anyway if she just~~

What ever did I do to deserve such a life?

[CAEL GRAY] MY PARENTS HEARD YOU WERE WITH ME AT THAT PARTY, THEY KNOW WHAT YOU ARE, NOW I'M CUT OFF AND I'M PROBABLY GOING TO BE DISOWNED SO I HOPE YOU'RE PLEASED WITH YOURSELF BECAUSE NOW I'LL HAVE PLENTY OF TIME TO THINK FOR MYSELF! [/CAEL GRAY]

All this talk of Quidditch and children is becoming annoying. I am suddenly reminded why I do not miss socializing with the vast majority of the wizarding world. Do we really have nothing better to discuss?

013

2011-06-10T03:02:16Z

[CAEL] I hope you know how terribly upset my parents are with me for allowing some random stranger to talk me out of such a wonderful socializing opportunity as the opera.

Because I cannot be motivated to care what they think as of late, I would like to thank you. [/CAEL]

I daresay it is actually a nice day today.

Now provided, I recall little of the events of this past weekend. However, it was intriguing to wake up Monday morning and take a glance at a few of the pictures that were apparently taken by my camera of---wherever, whatever it was.

My only regret is not stopping whoever invited the fat girl. Antonin, you should really... not be touching that. You should probably also be wearing a classier shirt, love; think outside of the goodwill box next time.

You appear passable here.

Now really, I find the amount of creepiness in the next one riding somewhere between disturbing and riotous.

Dolohov, we should spend more time together.

What is the fun of being blissfully unemployed if there is nothing to do? For goodness sake people, stop being so boring and tell me what lucky soul I'm going to be partying with on New Years'.

008

2008-07-22T20:45:37Z

[ANTONIN] Would you be up for going out for a drink? [/ANTONIN]

[KALISTA] I broke up with your brother.

If you want to flip a shit, get it out of your system now, because after today I don't want to hear a word of it or about him again. [/KALISTA]

007

2008-07-20T20:52:25Z

[PRIVATE] It's been a year---well, almost a year. So how long is it going to take him to know? And how long am I supposed to wait for him to get it together and make up his mind?

Oy, I want to stop thinking about this. [/PRIVATE]

~~Shut up already about that stupid party~~

006

2008-06-26T19:26:11Z

[ANTONIN] Antonin Dolohov.

I have a matter of the utmost importance to share with you. [/ANTONIN]

2008-06-22T02:45:38Z

I feel so ~~thoroughly~~ dreadfully ~~amused~~ sad for all of my former classmates worrying themselves silly over job offers. ~~Even if I had wanted a job, my parents never would have allowed it~~ ~~Having no expectations of you but to marry well is not that bad at all, so I honestly don't understand the bitching these days~~ Having money is so very convenient at times like these ~~when you only studied hard enough to pass~~.

Speaking of that, my parents have been so generous as to purchase me a flat as a graduation present. By all means, you should all come over and see it as soon as possible! Kali, love, you'll help me decorate, won't you? I'll need your impeccable taste to accompany my own in order to make it all as perfect as possible.

004

2008-06-06T19:43:15Z

When will this all be over? I need a good, long nap ~~and some tequila~~.

003

2008-04-09T06:35:04Z

[PRIVATE] Are we still together?

~~That bloody--~~

~~Leaves the damn country without a word, what the fuck is that~~

~~I'd have given him ample fucking space, he didn't have to make it all evident that--~~

~~I wonder if he'll come to Hogsmeade~~

~~Augh, I don't know~~ [PRIVATE]

[KALISTA] It's a long shot, but have you heard anything from your brother lately? Never mind why, just. ~~I need to~~ I'd like to know. [/KALISTA]

What on earth was that horrid ruckus in the hallways about this afternoon? It looked like Bagman and Merridew were attempting to put on a gladiator match.

You must feel like the most popular woman on earth right now, Dodderidge. Pity the only boys you've got fighting for your hand are substandard neandrathals.

Such is life.

2008-02-13T05:45:13Z

Goodness gracious, children. No need to get your knickers in a knot, it's just a silly gossip paper. No one believes half of the things Queen Bee says anyway.

Take life a little less seriously and just laugh about it. Your constant bitching and moaning is simply tiring.

THE INTERIOR

in floral shorts as sweet as may

IN DEPTH: While the ideals of pureblood supremacy may have somewhat (or completely) escaped her older siblings, they seem to have taken on doubly strong in Cecilia. Yes, she is better than you and yes, if you don't act to her preconceived notions of 'right', she will tell you so. It is worth noting, however, that any slight patience that she may have is, at least, afforded to Nick and Adamina--or, well, was is probably more accurate.
Her brother leaving the family in favor of a Muggle was a bit more than Cecilia could take and she snapped completely, shutting him off to her. In truth, this is her way of covering up how hurt she was by what she sees as a personal betrayal. As a result, she had recently become overwhelmingly insecure towards relationships and fears rejection and abandonment much more acutely than before. For this reason, Cecilia is determined to keep a close eye on Adamina. Fearing that her love of Muggle comics is an indicator of worse things to come, she uses threats of revealing this to their parents to keep her sister 'in line'.
As much as she would like to think she is (and appears to be), Cecilia isn't quite a perfect lady as her parents would like her to be. She would rather believe it against her will that she is a habitual smoker and an alcoholic, because it makes her feel better about doing it so often--yet, she hides it all from the outside world (as she does with the tattoo she got in one of her... ah... worse moments). She hates more than anything to look imperfect in the eyes of those whom she deems important and would much rather not share these nasty little details with people that don't already know them.
LIKES: Getting compliments, being admired, fancy things, dressing up, muscular boys, drinking, fags, being the best at things, going swimming, and summertime.
DISLIKES: School, having to work for things, dirty blooded ingrates, snobby Ravenclaws, idiot Gryffindors, doofy Hufflepuffs, bitchy girls, and small children.
ALIGNMENT: Death Eaters
PATRONUS: Cat
BOGGART: Reliving being told the news of Evan's death.
FAMILIAR: Sasha, the runt of a litter of black Persian kittens.

THE LIFE AND TIMES

if you love me, we can marry on the west coast

BIRTHPLACE: Kent, England
CURRENT RESIDENCE: London, England
SOCIAL STATUS: Maintained by her parents, Cecilia is well situated financially.
HISTORY: If you've heard the story of one pureblood family, you've heard them all and it is no different for the Hookes. Cecilia Jasmine was born to Mortimor and Eliza Hooke on the 12th of February in 1961, a year junior to her sister, Adamina, and ten years junior to her brother, Nicholas. Being that she was neither the oldest son nor the oldest daughter of the family, Cecilia was always somewhat more pushed aside than her siblings, which made her much more eager to please than they were. Not to say that the Hookes particularly paid a lot of attention to Nick and Adamina--their whole take on child rearing consisted of buying their children things to make them shut up and otherwise being generally absent. One thing the Hookes refused to be absent for, however, was the strict pureblooded customs that they taught and demanded their children follow at all times.
This is where Cecilia's eagerness to please her parents came in. It was about the only chance she had to catch their attention, so whenever she could she did her best to outdo Adamina--look the most beautiful, talk up the richest and most important men, never make a mistake in her etiquette, dance the classical waltzes with the greatest grace... however and whenever she could show off, she did. It wasn't as if she wished Adamina ill, she just wanted to shine, and each pat on the head her father would give her was worth more to the girl than the gold he showered her in when he couldn't take the time to truly care.
Away from her parents' eyes it was a different story, anyway. At the early age of fourteen, beginning with a sip of something strong at one of Vivica Avery's famous Slytherin house parties, the young lady began to take a downward spiral that in the years to come would consist of alcoholism, a smoking addiction, and, as of one rather blurry night, a barely-concealable tattoo. Cecilia knew that her parents would not approve in the least, and more than anything, she was aware that her future husband was probably going to approve even less. It is for these reasons only, which she sees as infinitely important, that she tried to stop--numerous times. However, she never managed to get close to straightening up until her boyfriend of the time, Evan Rosier, discovered her tendencies and their relationship was put on the tightrope.
With her brother expelled from the family for his marriage to a mudblood, her sister off happy in her own marriage, and parents who cared little for her, Evan Rosier became in Cecilia's late teens to be the driving force of her life and most decisions she made. He was the first man she ever loved and the most important thing to her in the world. However, Evan's double-life as a Death Eater in Voldemort's army lead to his ultimate demise in 1981, sending her reeling.
Her parents, having been counting on their daughter's relationship to bloom into a very convenient marriage for their last child, panicked. As quickly as possible, they gathered up a suitor for her in the well-off Donovan Rookwood, and moved to push the relationship forward. Cecilia, looking for anything to distract her from the tragedy of Evan's death, fell easily into the idea and did her best to learn to love the man she was paired with. However, in the end Donovan would leave her in favor of a halfblood woman--simultaneously leaving her alone and causing her and her parents great embarrassment within the pureblood community.
The months following included many fierce arguments with her parents, eventually leading to Cecilia's decision to move out on her own. She began to live alone in London, having little contact with anyone beyond the clientele of local bars she frequented to feed an addiction she no longer cared about controlling. Her life sat stagnant and sad, a fall from grace from the confident and conceited pureblood lady she had once been.
