💤🎂🍧🌙💧💚 (for Isolde on the oc ask 💙)

If you want ask me about any of my OC, you see this publish and ask me!

TW: depression, anxiety, death from some characters and abuse of substances (potions).

Thank you for asked me, @starriddler. Now I respond you. I'm sorry for the late and it's very long:

💤 Do they fall asleep easily? what helps them sleep?

Isolde doesn't asleep easily since was a child. She usually helps herself to sleep with a plushie (in her childhood and early adolescence). She has a jaguar plushie, a gift from her grandparents when Isa chose to go Hogwarts.

In sixth year after the Rowan's Death, she needed to drink some nights a potion for dreamless sleep (and drunk sometimes draught of peace, too). Nobody knew it (neither Talbott, until she confessed him in seventh year). She didn't have a good medical monitoring (I have the headcanon the mental care was underestimated by healers like in our medicine -muggle- in 80's and 90's. And Madame Pomfrey was petrified, who was the only person could help her). She was ashamed if someone knew about her depression and anxiety, trying to hide them and left the potions abruptly.

In add, she used the silencing charm over her, because she sometimes talks in her sleep. In special, when she has nightmares about the Curse Vaults or R or her Blood-Curse.

She left to do all of them when she started to go psychological therapy (with a muggle, MD. Natalia Blackwood, psychiatrist) and correct medical monitoring. She can sleep better actually, but sometimes she talk in her sleep, (and Talbott sometimes teases her when she says meaningless things if he can hear her).

🎂BIRTHDAY CAKE - when is their birthday? do they like celebrating it?

Her birthday is in March 4th. Actually she likes to celebrate with Talbott, some of their closest friends and their children. But not always was in this way.

I wrote in spanish (sorry) an one-shot about this topic (Cumpleaños) When she was a child, in many times her mother made a party with important politicians of MACUSA and Amanda invited them with their children, usually in her Pent-House in NY. Isolde's cousins were here, too, but they're older than her (they're the same age like Jacob) and the other kids didn't like her and Isolde didn't like them. Every year this day she pretended to be the "perfect girl", a doll who her mother dressed, said how act in front of the people, try to pleasure her mother. She usually was boring in this events and she can't felt to be herself.

When Isa was eight and half years old, she lived two years and half with her grandparents in Mexico, because her mother prefered her job in Mexico City (she was MACUSA's ambassador) and don't want distractions (Amanda was devastated for Jacob's disappearance, the scandal thanks to Rita Skeeter and obligated her left her job in UK). With them, she discovered she would like to celebrate, because for first time she felt loved in this day and Isolde could be herself with her paternal grandparents.

When she went to Hogwarts, she hid when was her birthday for fear someone try to hurt her in this day. Rowan discovered when Isolde received a birthday card from her mother and a gift from her grandparents in their First year. Talbott, only knew for a divination homework about their astrological cards and gifted her a bouquet of dahlias and a small box of chocolate frogs in their Fourth year. The Weasley siblings when they were studying together in the library when she was in her third year. The rest of her friends only in their Seventh year.

🍧SHAVED ICE - do they still have any objects from their childhood? what significance does it have to them? what would their reaction be if they lost it?

Yes, she still has some plushies (she's fan of them), photos about her family (she was nostalgic about the time she lived with Jacob, Amanda and Tadao -her dad-, before they lost her father), a hand bracelet from her granny (it's the most important and I talk about how she feel if she lost here).

🌙MOON - what is your oc's greatest wish? how far are they willing to go for it?

I use this question like the Mirror of Erised to express this point. And like others, depend her age what she see in it:

When she was child, after she lost her father, until her third year in Hogwarts, her wish was be the perfect girl then her mother wished, Amanda demonstrate love and care for her and be proud for Isolde. It's the reason she was perfectionist, always pretended to be happy with a "fake smile", working hard, have good grades, tried to be neat and well dressed. But Amanda always was disappointed of Isa, in special when Hiwatari involved with the Curse Vaults.

Until in the end of fifth year, her wish was be happy, with her brother founded, and with Rowan and Talbott (be closest friend of him in third/like his girlfriend in fourth and with a good relationship) in her side.

In sixth, after Rowan's Death, her boyfriend, her brother and friends save and sound; R disbanded; Rakepick captured (with torture signs) or dead. It was the first time she wished the death for someone or murder this person. With Rakepick only tortured with fire her, and Jacob stopped his sister at time to avoid Isa assassinated her former teacher.

In Seventh, she wished run away from Amanda, don't be her doll anymore, and she did. She was free of her, left her mother in USA, moved in with her grandparents for a month. She must return Hogwarts, because R was active, yet. The mole was in the School. Her wish was everyone she loved was safe and sound, even of her, (She had a blood-curse that could take the life of them), with R disbanded and her blood-curse eliminated or she was dead if this curse can't be destroyed and she was tired to be the "Heroine of Hogwarts". Until her argument with Talbott (here, sorry in spanish only), she found a new wish: cares herself and has a good self-esteem before to be the heroine and stop R. With Talbott's help (and after, all the Circle of Khanna), they defeated R finally. Isolde continues with therapy a few years more. In this point she wish to be auror than healer and she moved in with Talbott when they graduated.

In her auror's training years, she wish to finish them to be auror and developed her relationship with Talbott. And they got married in 1995, a year after they was worked in the Ministry of Magic.

When the Second Magical War started, she wished she and Talbott would be alive in the end of this conflict (and after she wish for Kai and Aneshka, both the youngest Hiwatari), Voldemort died, her blood-curse eliminated, and had the hope she could reunited with her brother once time and repair their relation (they fought between them because Isolde wanted finish the curse; Jacob wanted the power). But never happened the last point.

When Talbott and Isolde have a more stable life (economy, health, a good jobs, time, etc.), they wished have their kids. In 2006 their son born; and their daughter, in 2010 (They have names, but it's probably I'll change in a future, depending the Canon's game).

💧DROPLET - random angst headcanon:

Well, I wrote many here, but well, about Tadao Hiwatari Olivares death:

I said in another publish here, but Tadao was kidnapped by Death Eaters. It wasn't random, I'm afraid. Isolde's father was a Curse-Breaker, the best in Mayan area and the reason Gringotts hired him to work to them. He discovered many things about the Sacred Four Beast, in special Suzaku (who is responsible of the Hiwatari's curse). Voldemort was searched for those spirits, because a Japanese Legend said who takes all of them, this person have the absolute power. Voldemort tried to took them a few of years before, but he couldn't.

Tadao investigated them with an Unspeakable, Alphard Aaron Black (someday I'll talk about him. He's Aneshka and Aaron's father), thinking they could break his family's curse and his children hadn't it anymore. But Riddle knew they work, and in September 1st 1978, when he and Isolde accompanied Jacob to go to King Cross. Bellatrix Lestrange was the leader in this mission with two Death Eaters. Tadao could defeat the Bella's supports, but not her. Jacob ran away with Isolde with a portkey to MACUSA's embassy.

Two long months without any news about Tadao. Jacob returned to Hogwarts, even he wanted stay with his mother and sister to protect them. Amanda rejoined her work, leaving Isolde alone with Shima. (I wrote a little here). Tadao was tortured in all this time, but he didn't say anything about his searching. He lost his mind and in november 14th was killed by Voldemort. His corpse was found two days after.

The Unspeakable, by the way, was killed in March 8th 1980, but Voldemort could not take any from him, neither. He hid his information with help of his wife and his brother-in-law (Kai's father).

💚 GREEN HEART - what things make your oc feel comforted? hugs, kisses, food?

Isolde feel comforted with all of them, but the hugs and kisses by people she loves (Talbott, Rowan, Charlie, Bill and her grandparents. Later her kids). The food it's the form she could demonstrate how you're important for her. She likes cook but not everyone, only her family and closest friends.

Hello, can I please have 19,21 and 49 for Isolde if you want 💙

If you want ask me about Isolde Hiwatari, or any member of her family (Tadao, Amanda or Jacob), you see this list and ask me!

Hello! Of course! and thanks for ask me, @whatwouldvalerydo. It's a long post, sorry:

19. What does your character consider to be their lowest point?

Isolde thinks her lowest point is she isn't good enough for the people she loves or don't be strong enough to control her feelings and can afront every problem that is her responsibility, because they're consequences of Jacob's actions and she must repair them. (She has Atlas personality and Impostor syndrome).

In reality, the lowest points are her insecurity and her low self-esteem. Amanda after the Tadao's death, she was more stricter with her children, in special with Isolde (she saw herself projected on her daughter and wished Isa would be stronger and perfect). When Jacob was expelled this behavior was worse. Amanda wanted Isa didn't do the same mistakes than her brother, wanting the girl followed her footsteps in a future.

Amanda didn't waste the opportunity to say her daughter she isn't enough in many areas, wanting her child never expressed her bad feelings, minimizing them because Isa was a kid (and in Amanda's mind: how could a little girl feel depression? Isolde is only a child and she has to be happy without problems and/or concerns!), although later she denied that she had done it (Amanda was gaslighting Isolde in her childhood and in her early adolescence, wanted to have the control over her).

It's the reason of the Isolde's behavior: she worries about the problems of her friends/other people, she can give them advices and help to resolve them. But with owns troubles, she rejects them, hides her true feelings (with a fake smile) and says herself they aren't important than others, thinking is better don't say anything her friends for don't bother them.

21. What would be one item that they would hate to lose most?

I've never drawn or written before of this item, but always it exists, because is important in Isolde's story:

A handmade bracelet fabricated by Sac-Nicté Olivares (her granny). It is made with obsidian, amber, turquoise and red agate. It has four pendants: three feathers (one of a mockingbird, one of a quetzal; the last probably a phoenix -Suzaku-) and jaguar's fang. They are intertwined with elastic thread. She knows it is a protection for her from the Family Hiwatari Olivares (Her grandpa Tetsuo -mockingbird-, her grandma Sac-Nicté -jaguar- and her dad, Tadao -quetzal-. All of them are animagi/nahuales).

It's the reason when she knew Talbott lost his collar, Isolde understood how he was feeling about his problem more than Talbott could think and Hiwatari wanted to help him, even if she should to search for all Hogwarts. She didn't tell about it until Winger saw her with it when they were playing gobstones a few months after and he asked her for it, curious.

-----

After Rowan's death, there is other item she hates to lost: her scarf. It became a comfort item for many times when Isolde fetl bad and Rowan covered them with it and talked between both. When she was gone, Isa wore it during her grief, trying to be strong in front all Circle of Khanna, although she was devastated and scared.

She wore once time more in seventh year, after the Circle of Khanna was disbanded, because for first time she really was alone against R. She quickly fell into severe depression and anxiety, avoided her friends and her boyfriend, respecting their wish don't involucrate with dark wizards anymore. The scarf was her emocional shield, but one day she forgot in the Ravenclaw's Common Room and thought she had lost it, feeling worse.

Fortunately, Talbott found it. He returned her after their argument (I'm writing -in spanish, sorry- about it, yet), when finally the told each to other their problems, their feelings and resolved them when they apologized.

49. What is your character’s biggest fear? Most irrational?

Well, she has the similar fear in all her life and is lost the people that she loves. But there are variants in differents stages of her life:

Childhood: After Tadao was kidnapping by Death Eaters, she was afraid the same situation could happen with Jacob and Amanda. She felt alone, because her brother returned to Hogwarts (her mother thought he was better in the School than Ambassador's House); and Amanda was devastated but she continued working, left her kid only with Shima, Calderón-Boot Family's oldest elfine. Isolde had nightmares, panic attacks and sometimes, enuresis. This symptoms increased when Tadao's corpse was found by aurors two months after and she understood (thanks for her paternal grandparents in his funeral), her dad didn't come back again. If she would meet a boggart in this time, she saw Death Eaters kidnapped/killed her mother and her brother.

Early adolescence: when she discovered R was the responsible to activated again the Vaults, she was afraid her friends could tortured/kidnaped/killed by members of R; and finding only the Jacob's corpse in the vault. In third year, she proved her fear with the boggarts.

Late adolescence: After Rakepick's betrayal, the fear was more present in her sixth year. And became real when Rowan was killed by Rakepick. Isolde tried to endure her grief. However, she discovered Merula was the mole; and in her vacation, something about her blood curse. When returned in September to Hogwarts and she fought against R alone, she was paranoiac to put enchantments of protection every night. All the time she had her wand and drew it in a minor suspicion. The nightmares were recurrent, saw in them the Rowan's corpse, their friends killed and someone with a red cape dueling against Talbott, until Winger was defeated by this person... but it's her. Isolde was afraid she would take, thanks to her blood curse, the lives of her friends. Thus, she isolated herself and thought she was the monster that all told her in first year.

Adulthood: When Dumbledore told her and Talbott Voldemort was returned, the fears started again. But were more recurrent when finally The Second Magical War began. In July 1996, when they were fighting against the Death Eaters, she was afraid they caught her husband (Tal), they would do the same like her father, thinking if Bellatrix Lestrange was implicated or the Death Eaters that killed his family, it would be worse. Fortunately, Talbott rescued her of two dementors and found her. This fear was present until the War was ending. I'd written about it, but only in Spanish in this moment. You can read here in the apply of ff.net and traslate in your language.

Finish! I hope you liked it.

Some drafts about members of Hiwatari (Calderón-Boot) Family:

It's the first time I drew them. I want do them with more details in a future. And someday I'll draw Isolde's paternal fam: The Hiwatari Olivares (her dad and her grandparents).

[aneshkablack]

Why hello there, little friend! Thank you very much for summoning me - here's your question! ~☆

Free space! Tell me something about your character that you've been waiting to share! :D

About Isolde's Family:

If you read my fics or some random/ask game's responses, you know their history a little. Today I tell a little more about Family Hiwatari Calderón-Boot:

♌The oldest, is Tadao Hiwatari Olivares, son of Tetsuo Hiwatari Fernández and Sac-Nicté Olivares Hernández. He was born in San Cristobal de las Casas, Chiapas, México in August 14th 1931. He studied in Ilvermorny, being chosen in Thunderbird House. When he graduated, he trained to be a Curse-Breaker in his country. He worked in Mayan archeological sites for four years, being the best in his job. It's the reason because Gringotts Bank wanted to hire him. In 1955 he started to work in UK and he prefered to take the british nationality. In 1960 he met Amanda for a work that involucrate the MACUSA and Ministry of Magic. He was an animagus, his form was a quetzal.

♊ Amanda Clarisse Calderón-Boot was born in June 9th 1940, in Manhattan, New York, USA. She's Chadwick Boot's descendent and the youngest of three siblings (Robert and David are her brothers). Daughter of Jacob Calderón-Boot and Clarisse (neé Rappaport), she was the first Wampus in generations (generally, many of her relatives were Thunderbird or Horned Serpent). Ironically, she isn't good in combative magic, but she is the best in political and diplomatic skills, reason she worked in MACUSA immediately after she graduated in the International Magical Cooperation. Months after she was transferred to London like Ambassador's assistant. She met Tadao, they fell in love and getting married in 1962, but she didn't want to change her last name. In 1968 the former ambassador recommended her like his successor in MACUSA's Embassy in UK. She lived the horror of the First Magical War, but she could do everything the USA citizens to be safe and worked hard to restore the good relations between MACUSA and British Ministry of Magic.

♍ Jacob Alexander Hiwatari was born in London September 13th 1963. He's British because he's a son of british citizen and he was born in a Country of the UK. His mother left this nationality because wanted in a future, his son could take a good work in the Ministry of Magic and he won't have shadow of her family (her brothers could have a high position in MACUSA's presidential cabinet and probably he would fight against his cousins) . He was "The Amanda's Golden Child", because he is very intelligent, he had good grades, he was a excellent student with his private teachers, with a good manners. He admired his father, dreaming become one day a Curse-Breaker like him, traveled around of the World. But he isn't good with interpersonal relations and he can't make and doesn't want have friends, exception with Duncan Ashe and Olivia Green. He went to Hogwarts in 1975, being chosen in Ravenclaw, and a fun fact, he was Gilderoy Lockhart's rommie. Jacob hates him because one or two times he tried erased his memory of the Curse Vaults and take the credit.

♓ Isolde Hiwatari is the youngest member of this family. She was born March 4th 1973 (happy birthday by the way, even it's late!), in London, UK. British for Ius Sanguinis (right for be a citizen british's daughter. I read once time the Ius soli was abolish in UK a one or two years before. If I was in a mistake, tell me, please). Unlike his brother, her birth was unexpected and at bad time (The First Magical War), and her parents was surprised because in Hiwatari's dynasty was common have only a child, even if the family tried have more. But her parents decided to continue the pregnancy (Amanda a little more for her religion than really want have other child). In the end, Amanda loved her daughter, but wanted she could be "the perfect girl" in a future. With Tadao, Isolde had a close relationship for her curiosity to learn all.

It's a little resume of them, but I hope I could talk of them more in the future.

Fe de erratas

Tenía la certeza que el apellido de la familia de Amanda (la madre de Isolde) era Boot-Calderón o al menos eso lo había visto cuando era la extinta Pottermore. Ahora en Wizarding World, invirtieron el orden (o quizás no y yo me lo haya imaginado. Sin embargo veo varias fanpages que también tienen esa información, al menos hasta 2016).

Cómo sea, por si alguien sospechaba, Isolde es descendiente de Chadwick Boot por vía materna, fundador de Ilvermorny de la Casa Thunderbird. Amanda, es la primera Wampus en varias generaciones. Y cómo se ha descrito, la familia Calderón-Boot es una de las más importantes de Estados Unidos.

Es por ello que, al menos la rama en la que derivan Robert, David (los tíos de Isolde) y Amanda, se habían inmiscuido en la política, obteniendo puestos dentro del MACUSA, aunque la madre de Isa aspiraba a un curul dentro de la Unicámara en lugar de representar al país cómo lo hizo por muchos años.

Pero en fin, ya mañana me pondré a corregir todos mis oneshots y algunas publicaciones de aquí. A parte espero que pueda ponerme a hablar más sobre la familia de Isa en un futuro próximo.
