PERSONALITY! Lily has never been afraid to speak her thoughts. Because she has never been afraid to speak her thoughts, she also stands up for them. She has a clear view of what's right and what's wrong and always sticks to her moral compass. She has no problem with promoting an unpopular thought and will also defend others when they are being wronged. In many ways, she's an incredibly protective person. Additionally, she's a freethinker. Being an intelligent witch, she's never comfortable with simply believing the most popular idea because it's easy. She likes to sort things through and come to conclusions on her own. As stated, she is quite smart. She does very well in school and is proud of everything she does. She's not arrogant, but she certainly is aware of her own achievements. She comes off as very confident and that's because she is. She doesn't spend much time doubting herself; she thinks that simply slows her down from getting where she needs to go. She is also quite independent. It may be because she was a witch born into a Muggle family, but she has no problem carving out her own path in life. She understands that the world is, despite her best efforts, unfair. She went through school firmly believing that she had to be able to take care of herself. She is a hard worker because of this. In part, she may be making up for the fact that she feels she's at a slight disadvantage, coming from a nonmagical household. However, part of it is just that she does everything with a sincere and deep passion. Lily does get along with most people, but certainly not everyone. She certainly tries to be kind to most people, but also is aware that she doesn't need to be friends with everyone she meets; she knows that some people will simply be a negative influence in her life and she doesn't need that to get in her way. If they're being ignorant or cruel to her, she can ignore them easily, but she has no problem at all with standing up to a bully. She can't abide ignorance or purposeful stupidity, and can have a very sharp tongue and give a good lecture when someone is being rude or mean to someone she loves. As with any Gryffindor, Lily can be quite adventurous. She loves new challenges and will meet almost anything head on. It can make her somewhat mischievous and playful, but she thinks everything is good within reason. | |||
CHARACTER SURVEY! WHAT'S IN YOUR CHARACTER'S REFRIGERATOR? The cake for Harry's birthday, leftovers from the night before, food for the next few days. Fruits and vegetables that she will inevitably force James and any wayward Maruaders to eat. Cooking isn't particularly Lily's forte, but she makes do. Oh, and there's probably some wine stashed away in there for when there's an emergency or what have you. IS YOUR CHARACTER TYPICALLY THE BIG SPOON OR THE LITTLE SPOON? Little spoon! And at this point in her life, she's grown particularly accustomed to being James' little spoon. WHAT IS THE MOST IMPULSIVE PURCHASE YOUR CHARACTER HAS EVER MADE? Really, she went a little overboard with buying toys for Harry when she found out that she was pregnant. She was little overexcited. Prior to that, probably her first time in Diagon Alley, because there were a lot of magical books and she just wanted all of them. She had a lot of reading to catch up on. BIGGEST FEAR? REGRET? Her biggest fear, absolutely, is losing her family. It's a worry that's been fairly constant in their lives for the last few months and one that's almost all-consuming. On the topic of regret, Lily doesn't much believe in it. She lives her life to the best and fullest of her ability, and knows that while she might make a mistake, she's doing what she can with what she knows at the time. BIGGEST ACCOMPLISHMENT? Graduating from Hogwarts, definitely. For as smart and as hard as she worked, she always felt like she needed to prove something -- that she deserved to be there, and then, to a certain extent, that she could succeed in spite of being a witch. (She had years of Petunia's haughty comments to deal with.) Graduating from Hogwarts with such high marks was one of the proudest moments of Lily's life. WHO DOES YOUR CHARACTER VALUE THE MOST? Well, it's probably a tight race between her son and her husband, but Harry really does have her wrapped around his little finger. To her, it's incredible to watch this little person that she and James brought into this world, and who has all of their best qualities, and maybe a few of their bad ones too. But she loves how smart and curious he is, little as he is, and would give her entire world to make sure that his is okay. DO THEY HAVE A FATAL FLAW? WHAT IS IT? Her fatal flaw, but probably her biggest strength, is propensity to protect those that she loves. She'll stand by them absolutely; it takes an incredible breach of trust for Lily to turn away from someone. IF THEY DIED OR WENT MISSING, WHO WOULD MISS THEM MOST? WHAT WOULD BE ON THEIR HEADSTONE? James, Harry, the majority of the Order. And, as for the headstone, canonically: "The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death." WHAT ARE THE TOP FIVE MOST DEFINING MOMENTS OF YOUR CHARACTER'S LIFE? 1. Finding out she was a witch 2. Marrying James Potter 3. Finding out she was pregnant/giving birth to Harry 4. Being made Head Girl 5. Being sorted into Gryffindor IF YOUR CHARACTER'S HOME WAS ON FIRE, WHAT THREE ITEMS WOULD THEY SAVE AND WHY? If we're talking strictly objects and not people, Lily would go back in for her wand, her photo albums, and her letters. Her wand, because it's one of the most valuable and important things to any witch or wizard and she can't imagine having to replace it when it's been with her through everything. Her photos and her letters because those are irreplaceable and, aside from her her actual memories, are often the only connection she has left with certain people. | |||
