genre: fluff. just fluff
warnings: none
words: 1.868
aside: hello! I’m your secret santa this year! I really hope you like it. I went through so many different drafts and ideas in order to get your mc just right so I hope I succeeded. happy holidays to you and everyone reading! ❤️
*my submission for the @hphmsecretsanta event this year!!!
Tumblr media
The first time it happened, Talbott had no idea that this would turn into a recurring theme between them.
They’d been assigned to work together in the green house while Professor Sprout stepped out. Having been the two students closest to her when she did, she asked them to harvest her plant for her while she briefly dismissed herself to have a word with Professor McGonagall. This wouldn’t be so bad really if they weren’t trying to do so in front of a live audience.
Thankfully, it seemed easier than they originally assumed and they began their task with relative ease. The students around them elected to chat amongst themselves, filling the greenhouse with idle chatter and distant voices. The afternoon sun spilled in through the window, casting a golden aura about the room.
Talbott almost began to appreciate the serenity of the moment when it was oh so rudely interrupted.
“Have you done this before?” His fellow fourth year asks, hugging her robe a bit closer to her on account of the winter chill in the air. Even with the warming charm it can still be felt in waves.
He nearly doesn’t deign to reply, but does so with an arched eyebrow. “I haven’t.”
This time the other student, Isabella Wallace, turn to look him in the eye, her own sparkling with amusement and mirth. “That so? You’re doing quite well though.”
“Perhaps because it’s in the current chapter of our textbook.” Talbott bites back, perhaps a bit more hostile than was necessary.
Isabella sends him an unimpressed look and he sighs in defeat. “It’s not difficult. You’re also not doing awful.”
A smirk paints her mouth, her brown eyes reflecting the sunshine and looking warm. “My, is that a compliment? From Talbott Winger? The guy with a notorious bad mood?”
Talbott groans and rolls his eyes. “I can always retract it, y’know.”
“Nope, too late,” Isabella shakes her head, her blonde ponytail swaying gently with the movement. “You’ve already given it. The compliment has been received. You can’t take it back.”
She smiles up at him and Talbott scowls and turns away as his chest blooms with warmth. Like a virus.
Isabella grins winningly at his acquiescence.
The animagus debates objecting further or letting the conversation meet its awkward but timely end there when he notices the lack of idle chit chat in the background. He turns his head to examine this change and meets the wide, intrigued glances of everyone else in the room. From his peripheral, he can see Isabella look to do the same.
“What?” She asks lamely, almost childlike.
A kid at the back, a blonde ravenclaw with a mischievous grin, merely points up towards the ceiling.
His eyes first study the space above the ravenclaw’s head, but when he finds nothing he frowns in confusion. That is, until he feels a tug at his robe and he looks over to find Isabella also pointing upwards.
His entire expression slips from his face when he recognizes what he sees.
Isabella blushes but makes an attempt to laugh off the awkwardness. The rest of the class, however, aren’t quite so ready to dismiss what could possibly be enough drama to last their year for the next month and a half. And just when he thought the attentive looks weren’t bad enough, they began to chant.
“Kiss! Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!”
Not entirely unexpected for a band of teenagers, though the whole thing still felt terribly juvenile to him. Talbott even began to blush from embarrassment.
Suddenly, Isabella turns to him and Talbott arches a brow at her. “Do you mind?”
He blinks. “Pardon?”
She goes to reply, but is cut off by the cheers growing even louder. With a shrug and a sigh, she steadies herself by grabbing his forearm and pushing up onto her toes to plant a kiss on Talbott’s cheek. Her lips are a bit chapped from the weather but still somehow softer than he expected them to be as they brush his skin.
Right as she pulls back, leaving Talbott stunned, wide-eyed, and dumbfounded, the door to the greenhouse opens.
“What in Merlin’s beard is going on here? I leave for two minutes and the next thing you know I hear—” Her eyes spot Isabella and Talbott at the front and Isabella hastily drops his arm. Her eyes automatically shoot up to the roof.
Understanding dawns on her.
“Well, I suppose that’s what I get for forgetting I let the students hang up mistletoe in here.”
Their professor shakes her head and shoos them both back to their seats. She resumes her place and carries on with the lecture but this time, Talbott can’t help but allow his eyes to drift up and over the table.
Across from him Isabella is already staring back. When he catches her eye, she doesn’t blush or look away. She merely offers him a warm smile.
It suddenly feels warmer in the greenhouse.
II.
The second time they were caught in such unfortunate circumstances, Talbott had the bright idea to follow her down into Knockturn Alley.
Suffice to say, it wasn’t exactly a fun excursion.
So far removed from the safe boundaries and protective wards of Hogwarts grounds, every step felt precious. The snow crunched beneath his boots but he felt more like he was walking on ice. Whenever he looked up, another dark witch or wizard had their eyes peeled to them. The entire alley felt foreboding and threatening.
Isabella casts him a look over her shoulder as she trudges forth. “I told you that you didn’t have come. I would’ve been fine by myself.”
“Maybe,” Talbott concedes, but his tone still holds a stubborn edge. “Maybe not. But you’re undefeated, Isabella, not immortal.”
She releases a long sigh and stays quiet for a moment. “I wish you would’ve stayed at the castle.”
“I’m aware.”
“You could get hurt here.”
“So could you.”
Isabella rubs nervously at her arms. A frown clear on her face to broadcast her blatant disagreement.
Now sixteen, Talbott had grievously grown to care for the wild Gryffindor. While certainly troublesome and stubborn—and at times immensely frustrating—she was, he had reluctantly admitted to himself years ago that her kindness and selflessness was endearing. Endearing enough, it seems, to warrant a tentative crush on the cursebreaker. Not that he’s yet said as much.
Finally, after what feels like much longer than it likely was, they reach the spot they’re supposed to be at when they meet up with Jae.
Isabella pulls Talbott into a small alcove, but hesitates on the shove.
He follows her eyes to a small gathering of witches and wizards, speaking in frantic, hushed tones. Her fist clenches as she stares at them and she makes to step away from their hiding spot but Talbott reaches out to grab her elbow, stopping her.
“Don’t. We aren’t here for them. They’ll get their karma in due time.”
The brunette looks back once before relenting and settles back against the cold stone wall.
Their little alcove is beyond cramped. Just enough room for them to both lean against the walls at their backs without touching, but certainly not enough for someone to shove down the path between them. He’s much taller now than he’d been before, and he can’t stop himself from looking down and admiring her.
Nose and cheeks dusted a bright red from the snowy weather, hands shoved into her overcoat where she hides her wand. Dark blonde hair falling haphazardly around her shoulder, collecting snowflakes. Her lips chapped and close to cracking.
“Staring is impolite.” Talbott reads from her lips as they curl into a playful, albeit tired, smirk. “It’ll give a girl ideas.”
Talbott starts and clears his throat, casting his eyes away. “Right. I guess I spaced out.”
She doesn’t seem satisfied with this response but lets it pass. She shuffles and it inadvertently brings them closer. He thinks the moment might slip away but then she chuckles, drawing his attention back.
“This must be some sort of joke.”
“Excuse me?”
This time, it’s more of a snicker as she removes a gloved hand to gestures up above them. Talbott doesn’t even need to look to know what it is.
“Mistletoe,” Isabella supplies. “Again.”
Talbott tsks, looking away. He’s momentarily extremely thankful the cold hides his blush. “How ridiculous.”
“I think they’re fun,” Isabella grins and Talbott’s gaze snaps back to her. “Don’t you?”
He freezes, feeling as though he’s melting into the wall behind him. “I, uh—”
Isabella takes a step closer, her gloved hands gently pulling his from his own pockets and holding them. “Indulge me?”
He can’t even say yes before they’re both leaning in.
“Guys!”
They both jump apart, knocking into the brick walls at their backs. Isabella runs at her head, having bumped it on the stone.
Jae gives them a toothy, devious grin, crossing his arms as she approaches them from the main alley.
“Am I interrupting something?”
Talbott grumbles and rolls his eyes before pushing past them both. “Let’s go. We don’t have all day.”
III.
“Talbott? Have you seen my boots?” Isabella calls from their bedroom, her voice barely rising over the intense whistling of the wind outside.
“You left them with the laundry, love.” He calls back patiently.
“The black ones with the—”
“With the laces, yes.” He assures her, followed by the pattering of her footsteps, softened by her fuzzy socks.
She returns a moment later with a triumphant smile as she walks easily, directly into his waiting embrace. He deposits a kiss to her temple.
“I knew I left them there.” She teases.
“I’m sure.” He allows. “You ready to go now, then?”
Isabella nods, but steals his hands away in hers when he reaches for their gift bag. He involuntarily shivers as she pulls him closer to the fireplace by the lapels of his coat, the warmth of it enveloping him with a sharp contrast from the snowy expanse outside.
Their little house in the woods might be modest now, but they do have their plans to expand. Someday. Should the right time and opportunity arrive.
Branches tap at their windows but they pay it no mind. “Before we leave, can I show you something?”
Talbott considers the request. “Will I regret it?”
Isabella, who’d usually balk at such teasing, merely hums and shakes her head with a coquettish grin. “I don’t think so.”
His thumb brushes over the ring on her finger and he knows he’s already given in. “Then I suppose we could spare the time, since you’re so sure.”
Isabella smiles, victorious, and pulls him down into a thoughtful kiss. The fire strokes the warmth in his chest and his hands find purchase at her waist. He kisses her back eagerly, her lips by now familiar.
“How was that?”
Talbott smirks at the huskiness of her voice. “Lovely, dear, though I fail to see what it is you wanted to show me.”
“Look up.”
The words alone pull a chuckle from his throat but he does anyway.
Mistletoe.
Of course.
“Third time’s the charm, right?”
Talbott nods and leans in again. “Right. And everyone knows the best things come in threes…”

Finally! The last contribution of the HPHM Cardverse AU made by @ariparri
This contribution is however rushed and a bit confusing but I did my best xD
Anyways, meet the Runaway Candidate...
𝐉𝐚𝐜𝐨𝐛 𝐁𝐞𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐭𝐭 𝐀𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲
Tumblr media
Jacob Bennett Avery is the first son of Bruce and Mabel Avery. He was born as the candidate for being the next King of Diamonds. As Jacob Bennett grew up, he spent all his time being under Bruce's care. Bruce would often force him to study both etiquette, self defense and academics, any things that's needed for a King. Jacob Bennett would sometimes sneak out of his study room to hangout with his younger siblings. He is very fascinated in treasure hunting as he always reads books related to it as a form of coping mechanism.
When the day of his coming of age almost arrived, Jacob Bennett planned his escape and prepared the things he needed for his freedom. He also wrote a letter to his family, a letter filled with his true feelings, his realization of him not being suitable as the King of Diamonds and an apology for his mother and siblings for running away from home and swore he would never get back to the Avery Manor as it is his fate. His escape made his family devastated, Bruce and Mabel had an argument and eventually got into a divorce. The people in Diamond Empire knew about his escape and earned the title; "The Runaway Candidate". This embarrassed Bruce and decided to use his second son Malachi as Jacob Bennett's replacement.
Jacob Bennett didn't go too far during his escape. He stayed in the Diamond Empire as he lived in the streets. He became an anonymous bandit, stealing everything he finds interesting (mainly food and treasures) and would sometimes be seen leaping through the rooftops of everyone's houses and was feared by people. He met Olivia Green during one of his "hunting season" in which he stole the gal's prized possession but he immediately got confronted by her (mainly just her smacking him with her satchel or something). He returned the object he stole from her and she left with an angry look on her face. The interaction made Jacob fall in love with her. This made Jacob watch her secretly but still made Olivia notice his presence. The activity continued till Olivia decided to confront him, again. They became friends after a lot of confrontations and hangouts.
A year later, Jacob heard a rumor from the vendors that his mother and sisters went to the Country of Spades after divorcing his father. This made Jacob plan to travel towards the Country of Spades to see them. When he arrived, he got into trouble right away after he stole something that was meant for Patricia Rakepick, the former Ace of Spades and the current ruler during that time. He was brought to Rakepick and she decided that Jacob would be put to prison for both stealing and offending the queen. He stayed in prison for months and met his sister Maya who got dragged by the knights towards her cell. The two escaped together with the help of the Escape Artist (Jacob Cromwell by @carewyncromwell sorry for tagging you :'D). Jacob, Maya and their sister Marigold escaped from the Country of Spades and went back to Diamond Empire. Upon his return, he was confronted by his brother and the current King of Diamonds, Malachi and the siblings reunited.
━━━━━━ ◦ ❖ ◦ ━━━━━━
𝐒𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐈𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐀𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐉𝐚𝐜𝐨𝐛 𝐁𝐞𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐭𝐭:
• Just like his siblings, Jacob is kind, friendly, charming and intelligent. He can also be foolish and impatient.
• Jacob became a traveling treasure hunter for the Diamond Empire and also became a knight of the Empire, not a high ranking knight. He was offered by Malachi to be the Duke of Avery Manor but he refused.
• He's shy around women. When confronted by Olivia he would just be quiet. But after he and the gal became friends, he felt comfortable interacting with her.
• He is still called as the "Runaway Candidate" not by the people in the Diamond Empire, but also from the people in other regions.
• He is also a strategic person like his brother Malachi.
• He likes giving gifts especially to Olivia. He would give her red and yellow roses as a sign of love and friendship. He also accept (and assumes) that the gal didn't like him back but all his focus is their closeness as she was his very first friend aside his siblings.
• He's currently staying at the Joker's domain for a treasure hunt.
━━━━━━ ◦ ❖ ◦ ━━━━━━
I just realized that his description is very long that the other contributions haha.
Finally done with my contributions! I could finally rest and maybe start some ideas for this au related to my children :))

The Summer Break Challenge.
Day 1: Day at the Beach!
A/N: Yes, I'm actually alive 🤣🤣sorry guys for my absence, exams were killing me and I had one hectic schedule. So I present to you guys two short stories for the amazing, the glorious, mah bestie @usernoneexistent summer prompts. I hope you guys like it!
Summary: After a long week of work, Madeline returns home to her family. It was great to just sit back and have a nice evening with them. But what if they decide to have a weekend at the beach?
Warnings: Tooth rotting family fluff😂
Madeline sighed as she stumbled to her and charlie’s house. Boy, the week had been HECTIC! There had been so much work at the ministry with the disappearance of a death eater from Azkaban and the new Auror recruits’ training sessions, Madeline was on the verge of pulling her hair out!
Thankfully, she knew she had a relaxing, long weekend ahead of her. Sure, she had three, rambunctious children, who seemed to always get themselves into trouble. 
But Madeline and Charlie were the parents so what were you expecting?
Feeling her muscles relax, Madeline kicked the door open, before kicking off her shoes. “I’m home,” she announced loudly as she booted her shoes and threw her bags onto the couch. 
And just as she had predicted, she heard the thunder of footsteps down the stairs as she took off her uniform coat. She turned to face the stairs just in time to see their boy, Drake speed down the stairs, closely followed by their twin girls, Sophia and Isabella, laughing loudly as Charlie called after them, running down the stairs too. 
Madeline sat on her knees and opened her arms, laughing as the three siblings ran up to hug her, but all of them fell to the ground, a laughing mess as Charlie stood above them, shaking his head and chuckling. 
“This is why I told you lot to slow down,” he told them, helping Madeline up. The kids got up and hugged their mum properly this time. 
“Did you guys miss me coz I missed you bunch a lot,” Madeline said, kissing the children's heads.  
“Well, I can assure you, love, they definitely missed you,” Charlie chuckled as he picked up Drake and sat him on his shoulder, “drove me insane all DAY!”
“Mum, dad’s lying! He said he loved having fun with us!” Izzy complained, making Charlie clap his hand on his face as Madeline burst out laughing. 
“Well kids, looks like your dad’s changed loyalties,” she chuckled, picking up the girls in both of her arms, “who’s excited for bath time?” 
The kids squealed with excitement, scrambling out of their parents’ arms and running up the stairs, leaving Madeline and Charlie chuckling and shaking their heads. 
“There’s no doubt they’re our kids,” Charlie joked, snaking his arms around Madeline’s waist. 
“Hmm. There’s no doubt about that,” Madeline laughed. 
The couple smiled lovingly, looking into each other's eyes. Charlie pulled Madeline closer to him and kissed her lovingly. Madeline sighed into the kiss, feeling her body relax into Charlie’s embrace. As they pulled apart, Madeline kissed Charlie again, briefly, before putting her arms on his shoulder, smiling softly. 
“I missed you,” Charlie whispered lovingly. 
“Me too,” Madeline replied, smiling.
Just when they were leaning in for another kiss, Madeline stopped and turned around when she heard giggles. Charlie frowned and followed Madeline's gaze. They noticed little shadows near the base of the stairs. Charlie carefully tiptoed towards the end of the stairs, closely followed by Madeline. There they found the kids arguing and giggling amongst themselves in hushed whispers, to not get caught by their parents. 
Madeline and Charlie shook their heads for what seemed the hundredth time in the last hour or so. Madeline cleared her throat, grabbing the three kids’ attention. This caught their attention as they stopped their banter and turned their heads to see their parents standing at the base of the stairs, hands crossed on their chests. 
They were clearly not amused. 
“And what are three doing down here?” Charlie asked, quirking his brow, trying to keep a serious expression. 
“And as far as I remember, you three were supposed to be in the bathroom upstairs?” Madeline added. 
The children shared a mischievous look amongst themselves, before quickly running upstairs leaving Madeline and Charlie behind to follow them up, a laughing mess. The kids really took after them, didn't they?
After one long, never-ending time in the bath and dinner, where the kids almost upset the table with how excited they were to learn about the new dragon hatchling at Charlie’s reserve and the “mean wizard” Madeline had fought. Finally, the kids started to feel and look drowsy. And so Charlie and Madeline carried the kids up the stairs and tucked them in bed. 
Once they were sure that the little ones were actually asleep, they headed to their bedroom. 
"Charlie, I've been thinking…" Madeline said as she saw Charlie walk out of the shower, a towel tied around his waist. 
"Hmm?" Charlie hummed, busy drying his damp, red hair, with another towel.
"How about we go on a vacation?" 
"A vacation?" 
"I mean, it's been a while. And let's face it all of us are kinda getting bored at being cooped up in our daily routines," Madeline said, pulling aside the covers as Charlie sat down beside her and pressed a kiss to her lips.
"Honestly, I agree a nice weekend away at the beach sounds like heaven to me," Charlie fell back against the bed cover with a relaxed sigh, a smile on his face. 
"So it's the beach then?" Madeline asked, letting out a chuckle and laying down beside him. 
"I mean, do you want to spend your entire weekend in those freezing Scottish highlands," Charlie retorted. 
"Ok fine, you win. We're going to the beach," Charlie let out a quiet cheer just as Madeline turned off the bedside lamp with a smile, knowing that the upcoming weekend was going to be exciting.
It was safe to say that the three orionswan-Weasley siblings had gone bonkers when Madeline and Charlie broke the news that they would be spending the weekend at the beach. 
"Will we see uncle Bill ?!?!!!?!" Drake asked, squealing. 
"Sorry, sweetie he and aunt Fleur are away to France, so it's just us," Madeline said from the living room, where she was packing up a suitcase.
Drake's face fell a little and he fiddled with his food. Charlie noticed Drake's slightly grumpy face. Lowering his voice he said, "Don't worry kiddo when mum's busy we're gonna go on an adventure to find sea shells alright?" 
The mention of sea shells immediately excited the 6-year-old boy and his face light. Charlie high-fives Drake and he immediately gobble up his toast before trying to climb off the chair. 
"What's gotten you into a rush bud?" Madeline asked playfully as she helped him get off his chair. 
Drake wasn't interested in answering as he tried to wiggle himself out of Madeline's grip. Madeline chuckled ad let him go and the moment she did, Drake ran up the stairs at lightning speed. 
"Now what exactly did you tell him?" Madeline asked, tilting her head towards Charlie. 
Charlie had a guilty smile on his face. He shrugged and walked over to her and slung an arm around her shoulder bringing her closer to him. 
"Just got him a tad bit too excited for the trip," Charlie grinned. 
Before Madeline could say anything she heard calling them from upstairs. They looked up and saw Drake run down the stairs, grinning widely. He had a black wooden box in his hand and a red bandana around his head. Box made a rattling sound, possibly from the dozens of seashells delicately preserved in them. 
As he came down the stairs, he carefully placed aside the box of seashells, before putting his hands on his hips and puffing out his chest.
"To the beach!", he declared, making the entire family burst out laughing. 
Charlie laughing picked up his son and hoisted the little boy on his shoulder, making him giggle. 
"You all heard the little man! We have some shells to collect, family!" He declared, mirroring Drake's determined look. 
"To the beach then, " Madeline chuckled, as she picked up the suitcase and headed outside to their car. 
It was gonna be one heck of a beach weekend.

will we get to see alternate talbott soon 🥺
Not sure how soon thanks to life shenanigans lol I did make some sketches in the meantime that hints at some things for this au.
Context for those that don't know: This is an au where Talbott is much more friendly and social on the outside, but is very deep in the anger stage of grief on the inside. None of his friends are aware as he doesn't want to worry them. His rage and grief are his and his alone. That is, until Reina finds out thanks to her ability to see and feel one's true emotions.
TFW you meet your crush only to find out he has some serious EMOTIONAL BAGGAGE
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The manifestation behind Talbott is his Effigy, which in this setting is the projection of his Soul. Keeping all his rage and grief within caused his Effigy to take on that unsettling form.
Effigies of those who have been wronged are known to glare at anyone responsible, giving them the unsettling sensation that they're being watched. It's a little hard to tell but Talbott's isn't glaring at Reina, but rather starting off elsewhere. I've been playing with the idea that in addition to sensing one's emotions, Reina can also see them.
Poor Reina ends up being way too scared to go near Talbott for a while, and feels bad because she knows it's not his fault. He's a genuinely good kid that's angry and hurt. He just ends up thinking she's way more shy than she lets on.

The first daughter of Bruce and Mabel Avery. The older twin sister of the King of Diamonds, Malachi, the younger sister of Jacob Bennett and the older sister of Marigold. Growing up being treated as nothing by Bruce, Maya grew a hidden hatred towards him. She's very close with her siblings, especially her twin Malachi. Maya gained knowledge thanks to her mother Mabel who taught her and her siblings the things they needed to learn. As a child, she's into creating machinery and hoped she would become an inventor once she grew up.
Years had passed, Maya and her family were devastated after they knew Jacob had run away from home due to their father's harsh education towards him. Maya's parents fought and eventually got into a divorce. She along with her younger sister Marigold were taken by their mother to move away from the Diamond Empire to the Country of Spades, leaving her twin brother Malachi behind as Jacob's replacement. Just like her twin, she was sad and lonely without her other half but a hint of hope inside her telling her that they will see each other again. Maya studied at the University in the Country of Spades where she learned etiquette and self defense. After her studies, Maya became a journalist and also had a part time job as an inventor's assistant.
As the former Ace of Spades Patricia Rakepick took over the Country of Spades, Maya had an instinct that she needed to do something to stop her. She joined the rebellion that was led by Veruca MCquaid, the King of Spades' sister. During the revolution, Maya wrote an article in every newspaper release about how Rakepick is a ruler that needs to be taken down. Rakepick knew about it and got offended by her "lies". She was sent to prison, where during her imprisonment she met her older brother Jacob who ran away for years in the same cell she's in. Rakepick wants the both of them to be put to death but after knowing that they're related to the King of Diamonds and decides to cease her plan. Both Maya and Jacob escaped from prison not long after that. She was not present at the fall of Rakepick as the ruler of Spades as she along with her brother Jacob and her sister Marigold came back to Diamond Empire and reunited with her twin brother Malachi. Months later, she became the Duchess of Avery Manor.
●◉◎◈◎◉●
𝐒𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐌𝐚𝐲𝐚 𝐀𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲:
• Maya is known for her wits, charm, good personality and creativity. Many of the journalists in Country of Spades wants to work with her but turned them down as she plans to quit due to her decision of coming back to her hometown.
• She has a lot of hidden anger towards her father and her brother Jacob to the point she only drinks her feelings out. (Yes, she's an alcoholic in this au xD)
• In the middle of her year of studying at the academy of Country of Spades, her mother died from sickness and became the guardian of her younger sister Marigold.
• She likes to wear male's clothing when she needs to. Especially when it's an outfit for horse riding or/and sleepwear.
• Loves to go to museums. She met Bill Weasley during her visits and they became friends.
• Maya's good with weapons. She loves to use the bow and arrow. Bill taught her how to use a gun once and Maya told him she prefers something other than a gun which earns an awkward laugh from the lad.

The Jack of Clubs
Tumblr media
Here is some information on Helena’s role as the Jack of Clubs in the Cardverse AU that was created by @ariparri In addition, Cato and Reilly both belong to @catohphm
Helena is an intellectual and sincere advisor to the King of Clubs. Raised in a high class family and receiving an advanced education has taught her about her own homeland and the surrounding kingdoms. She also works closely with the Ace of Clubs, one of her longest friends in certain decision making. Despite her quiet nature, she speaks with wisdom and respect for others, often trying to not let rumors define a person or place before she is able to gather her own information.
Helena’s father, Alessandro Durazzo, comes from a wealthy family in the Capital of the land of Clubs. Her father is a scholar and expert in economics, her aunt works in developing medicine, and her uncle trains various types of animals which serve as the steeds of the Club’s army. He worked with maintaining the economics balance of the clubs kingdom and also was interested in government although he never pursued it.
Meanwhile, Helena’s mother is from a city not too far away from the border the Land of the Clubs shares with the Spades. When Olivia’s younger sister, Cynthia, expressed an interest in joining the Clubs military, their parents did not want Cynthia to travel alone and decided that Olivia would go with her. Olivia tried to convince her parents to either just let Cynthia go alone or send her with someone else because she didn’t want to leave home (she was also in a relationship with a farmer named Garrett which her parents would quickly object to and forbid if they found out). However, despite her requests, Olivia still ended up traveling to the capital with her younger sister
After moving, Olivia quickly found success as a researcher and botanist who focused on identifying and growing different types of plants with medicinal properties. During her work, she also befriended many of her co workers, including a woman named Reilly. In addition, through various connections she gained, she eventually met and fell in love with a scholar who specialized in civics and economics named Alessandro Durazzo.
Helena and her older brother Jacob lived comfortable lives in the land of Clubs and received some of the best educations possible. Her parents had multiple connections with high class families and she developed a childhood friendship with the son of her mother’s friend and co worker, Cato Reese. The two sent to the same schools growing up and only separated when Cato enrolled in a military academy and Helena went to college to further her studies. Despite this, the two friends still kept in touch through writing and other methods of communication. The two would go on to collaborate and both of them had high government positions with Cato being the Ace and leader of the country’s military and Helena being the Jack and advisor to the King.
After many years, Helena eventually became the Jack and a trusted advisor to the King of Clubs, Orion. She tends to make decisions rationally, trying to not let anger sway her judgement. While she is quiet natured, she will fiercely defend any of her ideas that she believes will benefit the kingdom and ensure prosperity and happiness. Oftentimes, when faced with a tough event to provide advise on to the king, she ventures into the forest to see if she can get signs from nature. She also tries to keep calm and have a level head with meditation
However, the times inched closer to becoming truly dire when the neighboring Country of Spades fell to a coup and had a dictatorship set up by Patricia Rakepick. The threat of invasion became more real as if the Spades wanted to conquer the other kingdoms, the only way to do it, was to pass through their shared border with the Clubs. Helena entrusted Cato to make the right decision and supported his idea to strengthen their security on the border. Helena supporting Orion’s desire to help the people of the Country of Spades and also keep the people of Clubs safe, particularly those on the border. She helped make advisements for the best approaches to take with this growing conflict
