4. Something about this character which makes me laugh.

	Oh man I want to pick ALL THE CHARACTERS. I will start with HARRIET and LEO. Possibly will come back for Shelly if no one else claims her! (Reply to this) (Thread)

Harriet

1. Why I played this character. Everyone who played at BNW knows Harriet Creevey was a popular NPC before I picked her up. I can't take any credit for her gossip mongering or ab/use of photography. That was all Emily. Basically, I love plot and Harriet had huge potential for plot. I loved the idea of her running her own underground paper because she got kicked off the real one for basically spreading lies.
2. My favorite moment in the game for this character. I really liked her friendship with Jade. They were both so girly and kind of shallow that they clicked instantly. I enjoyed their dynamic and it's the only real relationship I got close to developing with Harriet so far. Though, of course, there was the posting of topless Syl and Harrison! And then selling poster versions of them, oh goodness. She's so into making a buck it's ridiculous.
3. My favorite piece of headcanon for this character. That she's a total daddy's girl. Dennis spoils his kid rotten and even though in back of her mind, she knows its wrong, she takes advantage of it. I also just like that underneath all her scheming and plotting, she's just a very girly person who loves her family dearly.
4. Something about this character which makes me laugh. I laughed when she was upset that no one gave her any gifts for her birthday at BNW! Really she can be so shallow. And whenever she tries to scheme or gossip, I'm just generally amused by her too.
5. Something about this character which makes me cry. The fact that her mother died when she was young and the fact that it really kind of damaged Dennis makes me sad. She's sort of a pillar for him, sometimes I think because he's lost so many important people to him, it's made him regress a bit.
6. One of your characters that I think would get along well with them LUCY OBVSLY.

	She really is an interesting character! I really do hope you get a chance to play her again because I've love to see what you do with her, but particularly I would love to see her opposite Lucy, of course! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Leo

1. Why I played this character. Leo was inspired by his PB. There were commercials going on at the time for one of Jay Baruchel's latest films. I want to say it was She's Out of my League, but I'm not sure. But basically I like those tall skinny, awkward looking guys and I also love dark hair so his face sparked a muse in me. As I've said before I'm a plot bunny. I like playing characters that give me potential to interact in a unique way with other characters and possibly give them their own plot too. And for some reason Leo just developed in my mind as the Uber Prefect who takes his job WAY WAY too seriously. I thought it was amused and that it was an idea everyone could have a lot of fun with. And when I got the muse for his mum, it was a wrap: I had to play this kid.
2. My favorite moment in the game for this character. UGH DON'T MAKE ME CHOOSE. Any time he flails is gold. I think when he completely underreacted to Benjamin telling him he kissed Lucy was pretty funny just because of Ben's reaction. Ben was pretty awesome and their interactions were amusing. I also loved his unlikely friendship moments with Jamie, though. Moments were she'd stick up for him or just try to get him to do things he'd never do.
3. My favorite piece of headcanon for this character. That eventually he gets MARRIED. Leo. Married. IDK why but I just seeing it happening. With some mousy, slightly off extremely submissive girl.
4. Something about this character which makes me laugh. There's a lot...his super anal-ness. He worshipping of the rules like they are a religion. The fact that he talks like a Professor calling everyone Mr. and Mrs. The fact that he made Barnaby go through a pseudo-job interview to take out his sister. I could go on and on.
5. Something about this character which makes me cry. I guess even though it doesn't really bother him that much that he doesn't have hardly any friends and he's quite possibly the least popular boy in school wherever he is, it IS a little sad from an objective perspective. It's obviously unhealthy even though Leo's just weird. Secretly, though, I think he wishes people agreed with his POV more. But he's way too stubborn to compromise on his drastic dogmas.
6. One of your characters that I think would get along well with them Amelia, duh. XD

1. Why I played this character. Rhys is that character you have sitting at the back of your head that you didn't even know was there until you actually started apping them. Rhys started forming in my head long before I even joined BNW. He formed when I was taking like a year break from RP. I don't know how or why but he was just there. And I know that because writing his app was ridiculously easy. I knew who he was already, it was just the details I had ot figure out. I was definitely psyched to play a Quidditch Captain who was all about his position. And I wanted to play a dude's dude cause we needed some more of that in the game at the time.
2. My favorite moment in the game for this character. There's too many to pick just one but I do like when he impersonated Josh on Lindsay's journal and wrote in his accent. XD
3. My favorite piece of headcanon for this character. That he loves babies. Not just little kids -- babies. Stinky, poop in their pants, screaming wailing babies. Okay, so he loves them considerably less when they're like that but that's what a lot of people, especially guys like him, associate with them. But he loves them. HE THINKS THEY'RE CUTE. If he sees one in a store, he coos and plays peek-a-boo with it. It's silly and really unexpected for him.
4. Something about this character which makes me laugh. When he gets all macho. Especially when he gets angry macho like when he was mad at Noah for seeing Rachel topless even though it was an accident.
5. Something about this character which makes me cry. Rhys really doesn't make me want to cry? If anything maybe because I miss playing him and having awesomely great times at BNW.
6. One of your characters that I think would get along well with them. NONE OF THEM. HE HATES THEM ALL. XD

	He would get on great with CATE!!! I think, at least. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

1. Why I played this character. Shelly is a revival of an old character used to play a while ago, Victoria Frobisher. I sort of made her a little sillier, I think but really she's pretty much the same character (except for the PB who used to be Kristen Dunst). I wanted to play her again because she's just fun and I love how carefree she is.
2. My favorite moment in the game for this character. I really really liked the thread with Charles where her rat chews up his homework. XD
3. My favorite piece of headcanon for this character. That she loves junk food maybe? Or her relationship with Peter and how it's different from her other brothers. IDK this question is hard for me because I have a lot of headcanon. >>
4. Something about this character which makes me laugh. That she can be such a....air head isn't quite the right word. Blurter maybe?
5. Something about this character which makes me cry. Again, I have a hard time finding something truly sad about her character other than the fact that I don't play her anymore. My Gryffs tend to me happy campers, I guess!
6. One of your characters that I think would get along well with them. She and Brenna seemed to get along good! But to be more creatively, definitely Ace! They're both hyper and and idk she just always loved his energy and personality! I could see them all-capsing things a lot in convos haha.
