greyson avery

PERSONALITY

Positive Traits: Independent, resilient, unafraid
Negative Traits: Angry, self-destructive, hateful
Quirks and Habits:
Greyson has a habit of getting bored really, really easily and he needs excitement in his life constantly to escape the pain he feels when left to his own devices. When he's bored, he tends to do stuff like bounce his knee up and down, chew on the end of quills or tap the quill nibs against his desk. He gets disruptive when bored in class as well, often calling out Professors for being such pansy losers who couldn't get a better job. He's gotten his fair share of detentions a result but he doesn't care because at least they keep him busy and from hurting himself.
Likes: Partying, drinking, smoking, Quidditch, doing stupid things, setting things on fire, stick n’ poke tattoos
Dislikes: Werewolves (after they killed his cousin Gemini), his 'uncle' Graham, authority figures, weaklings
Boggart: His twin brother, Gabriel, dead
Mirror of Erised: He sees his family all reunited - his father, his mother, his sister Genevieve, his brother Gabriel, and his sister Gemma. They're all alive and happy.
Patronus: a cobra

HISTORY

2007: When Greyson was four years old, his mum, his sister Genevieve and newborn sister Gemma all died in a fight, caught in the crosshairs a fight between Death Eaters (a group they were apart of) and Aurors. He and his twin brother, Gabriel, were out with their dad and uncle at the time. He remembers the sheer panic from his father when he found out about the attack, the way he gripped his hand so tight he almost crushed it before apparating away, leaving Gabriel behind. He lost his mum and three siblings in one day.

2010 - Greyson had been on the run with his dad for years, his father's vitriol spewed into his ears every single day and as a young child Greyson took it all in, believing every word. One day, when his father snapped, Greyson watched with wide eyes as his dad brutally murdered his cousin (unknown to him at the time) Cassidy's dad. As a result, he was completely traumatised.

When Greyson was sent into a local shop not long after, he was in a trance-like state and told the shopkeeper everything. The shopkeeper immediately alerted ministry officials who whisked Greyson away to St. Mungos after getting the location of his father out of him. A few hours after being checked over, Greyson was delivered on his Uncle Graham's doorstep and reunited with his brother. After years of his father whispering hateful things about Graham, he was distrustful immediately and to this day, doesn't open up to him.

2016 - at age thirteen, Greyson got his very first tattoo from a mate in Knockturn Alley who taught him how to do stick n pokes ‘properly.’ Greyson remembers the pain and exhilaration he'd gotten during the tattoo but the look on his uncle's face is what had stuck out the most. He'd been disappointed when he found out but Greyson didn't care because for once, it helped him work through some of the pain he'd been feeling since he had been torn away from his father. Since then, he's given himself more tattoos and fallen into some other habits such as smoking and drinking excessively to help numb the pain.

Roleplay example:

Angel telling her that she was the ‘embodiment of joy and sunshine’ made Vi grin once again, happiness and warmth coursing through her veins once more. Who knew the stoic Ravenclaw boy could be so sweet? Although… he definitely had his sneaky side, she knew that. Leaning up, Vi pressed another quick smooch against his cheek with a ‘mwah!’ before leaning back. “You’re so sweet you make my teeth hurt! If you were a building, you’d definitely be Honeydukes!” It was a weird compliment and she was well aware but she didn’t care because it was true. “Sooo… who was the lucky girl that got your first smoochie woochie? Or boy?” Though he insisted he was straight, it never hurt to ask just in case.



“Yeah, you, Silly Pants McGee. What if you’re the meanest student in Hogwarts? Does that mean I get to give you lots of kisses and hugs? It’s not like I’m about to go give someone like Rosa - Merlin, she’s a piece of work - smooches and cuddles,” Vi said, shuddering at the mention of Rosa’s name. In general, she tried to like most people but Rosalia was a known purist and she’d made her best friend, poor, sweet Prim, run away crying at the dance… yeah, she didn’t mesh with the girl. “A week is like… seven days and however many hours! It’s a long timey wimey time. I’ll die of boredom.” But then Angel suggested they hold a slumber party and instantly, her eyes lit up because yes. “What a fabulous idea! Okay. Okay. But only if we can have marshmallows and play, like… a game… and invite the other Ravenclaws! We could invite Victoire, and Mark, and Nico… oh, and Vanya and Cae and Alex! Maybe some other girls too.”



It was a rare occasion when Vi was lost for words, but it felt like Angel had taken them straight from her mouth and she stared at him in awe because wow. Did he really think that highly of her? She thought that he, like most people, just thought she was a weird, bothersome girl who was always all over someone. She didn’t think he viewed her like that. “I… Angel, that’s…” Not sure what to say, she hopped off the table to launch herself at him in a great big hug, her arms wrapping around his waist to squeeze him tight. “That’s the nicest thing someone’s ever said to me,” she said, murmuring the words against his chest, warmth radiating through his t-shirt. At his question she pulled away and smiled up at him brightly. “Okie dokies, so… truth. That’s what I choose. Truth bomb me!”
