[ BIJOUX FINNIGAN-THOMAS, 20, CIS FEMALE, SHE/HER, LANA CONDOR ] Have you seen [ BEE ] lurking around Lulach? It’s said they are a [ HALF-BLOOD ] and they used to be a [ HOGWARTS ] student. It’s said they now are an [ AUROLOGIST & ASPIRING CURSE-BREAKER ]. If you had to describe them, you’d probably say [ THEY ARE WANDERING EYES, A SWEET VOICE THAT MASKS WHISPERS, ROLLERBLADES, & THE COLOR YELLOW ]. Are they prepared for what’s to come?

Bio:

Bijoux was born to Theo Hussey (Squib) and Hoa Thach (Muggle). Hoa became pregnant and had a few stipulations about them getting married: they would not take Theo’s family name (”Neither I nor my child will be named Hussey.”) And that was that. Thus Bijoux Thach was born. 

At the age of five, Bijoux’s parents were arrested for home invasion--robbery specifically. They’d been doing this for a while to keep the family partially fed, but mostly to support their drug habit. Hoa was released on the account that she was a mother while Theo was put away. It was a mere month later that Bijoux, with her black swan stuffed animal in hand, stood on the dirt road outside her rundown house--barefoot and crying--as she watched her mother drive away with a man she’d never seen before. They got to the turn-off when Hoa turned back to Bijoux and waved good-bye to her daughter with a smile. 

Bijoux was six when Dean and Seamus came into her life, and she was more than happy to shed her mother’s last name. She never really got over the way that Hoa smiled as she waved good-bye to her. She adjusted to her new family with ease, trying her best to leave that pain behind. 

Bijoux has chromesthesia. A form of perceptual phenomenon where she can see sounds as colors. Her chromesthesia mixed with her magic created an even more unique phenomenon where the colors she sees matches the person’s (or other living thing’s) aura. She can tell what kind of “color” you are simply by hearing you speak. 

Her synesthesia has lead her to a love of divination and all other “soft” magics. Tea-leaves, tarot cards, Astragalomancy...it’s all in her wheel-house. Though, her main focus is aura reading and aura cleansing.

Bijoux has always been a Hufflepuff through and through. She’s sweet, loyal, hard-working--the kind of person you love to rely on. Wearing the yellow and black quickly earned her the nickname “Bee.” While she loves the nickname and now has a collection of bumblebee themed items (pins, a jean jacket with a large bee patch on the back, a bee-patterned skirt, several journals, and a self-made bumble bee themed tarot card deck), there’s a special place in her heart for those that use her full name. 

Though sweet and generally helpful, Bijoux has always had a bitter spot in her heart. She’s kept in so much anger and hate that if you catch her on a bad day, you may get quite the tongue-lashing or hex thrown at you. 

On a recent trip to the US, Bijoux discovered roller derby. It was an outlet that she never knew she needed and has been trying to get going here at home. Now, you’ll hardly see her without a pair of roller blades slung over her shoulder or in her hands. 

Roller derby also showed her that she was more fierce than she thought, and has inspired her to begin her journey to curse breaker--one that she always wanted to take, but never thought she could. 

Bijoux loves wearing overall dresses. She has a variety of them from blue jean to dark blue to white to pink to black to, of course, yellow. At any given time, Bijoux is always wearing something yellow--even if it is as small as a hair bow or a necklace. 

You’ll most often catch her in some kind of dress or skirt, the bruises and band-aids on her knees and legs proudly showing.
