STORY

Julio was born on June 7th and for some reason or another, eventually ended up on the doorstep of an orphanage in London. It is all he can remember and nobody knows where he came from. He never finds out if his parents abandoned him, if they were killed, or if they gave him up reluctantly due to being unable to provide for him. Julio spent most of his childhood reading any books he could get his hands on and dreaming about when he could leave his small room and explore the fantastical world he reads so much about but never sees. When he’s 11, he receives a letter from Hogwarts and suddenly his life changes. He’s a wizard.

Julio is sorted into Hufflepuff, the hat taking a few minutes to decide as he also fits Ravenclaw and Gryffindor. The library at Hogwarts is hundreds of times bigger than the small one he used to have and he spends his years reading all he can about the world and magic. Julio excels at Astronomy and Charms.

Suddenly, Julio is 18 and is thrust into the world he’s wanted to see his whole life, but has nowhere to go. He’s a poor street kid in London, picking up odd jobs here and there for some coin. He doesn’t stick with anything very long as he gets bored of routine and never leaves London. One day, Julio goes to a museum and marvels at a large pirate ship on display and suddenly is struck with an idea straight from a fairytale. The next morning Julio flies above England as the sun rises on his newly enchanted ship he names The Empyrean. The newspapers tell of a ship mysteriously disappearing without a trace.

He hires a crew, a band of misfits who thirst for adventure and want to escape their debt or unsatisfying jobs. Together they explore ruins and caves, chase myths and stories, and find artifacts from long ago in cursed and trapped tombs. Julio would eventually come face to face with a cursebreaker called Desiree Lestrange who is set on getting to the artifacts first. They form a rivalry which slowly turns into a friendship and then into something more as they discover what they both really want is provided by the other. Their lonely pieces fit together like a puzzle.

Julio “Jules” Aquila x Desiree “Desi” Lestrange

@carewyncromwell

[carewyncromwell]

🌌 Milky Way for all of your OCs

Whoo! This'll take a minute -- let's do this!

🌌 MILKY WAY - what was the inspiration behind your oc? what was the first thing you decided about them?

Carewyn, as better explained here, is a fusion of my mum and myself as kids!

Jacob, as better explained here, was inspired by the stories my mum used to tell me about her late brother!

Erik was inspired largely by a friend of mine from high school who had this very cherubic face and also the largest, sassiest potty mouth of all of my friends. His name was also inspired by two of my favorite Broadway characters -- Erik from The Phantom of the Opera and Enjolras from Les Miserables (affectionately called “Apollo” in the book).

Ana came about because I thought an INFP Gryffindor could be a really fun contrast, but personality-wise, she really took influence from both myself and my dad as kids, since my dad’s a Gryffindor and I’m an INFP.

Farid, as better explained here, was inspired by both Newt and Jacob from Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and Yugi Mutou from Yu-Gi-Oh.

Jackson, as better explained here, was inspired by historical stage magician Harry Houdini!

Bat, as better explained here, was inspired by Garrett Denali from Twilight and Sirius Black, as well as other “Lancer” type figures like Ron Weasley and Jounouchi Katsuya from Yu-Gi-Oh.

Ru was an evolution of an idea I’d developed much earlier on of a serial killer kelpie that transforms into various forms to eat people, but over time, they developed a love of photography and film that’s largely like my own for film and television, and in doing so developed a much more sympathetic motivation and personality. Their particular feeling of isolation and wanting to be part of this world they could only watch from afar is a feeling I’ve felt off-and-on for years and evoked both Quasimodo from The Hunchback of Notre Dame and Ariel from The Little Mermaid, to me.

Ed’s brain spark largely came down to me thinking it’d be fun to have a 90′s style boy band (i.e. Backstreet Boys, N*SYNC, 98 Degrees) in the Potterverse around the time when Harry and crew were at school. Backstory-wise, I took inspiration from Severus Snape, Andromeda Black-Tonks, and both Sirius and Regulus Black, and obviously Ed’s a Slytherin like Snape, Andromeda, and Regulus...but personality-wise Ed actually ended up taking some inspiration from Anna from Frozen! In fact, one of the character themes I chose for him as a child is a deleted song from Frozen that was originally going to be sung by Anna called More Than Just a Spare.

Desiree came about largely because of the creation of Jules Aquila @kathrynalicemc. His spontaneous, fantasy-loving personality was just so likable (largely because of how in-tune I was with it myself!), so when I was working on a character that I thought could be a fun contrast for someone like Jules, I settled on using my late stepmum as inspiration. I’m a very right-brained, sensitive, imaginative person like Jules, while my stepmum as a girl was a very left-brained, soft-spoken, modest, scientific, nerdy overachiever the way Desiree is. Like Desi as well, my stepmum had to find freedom and happiness by breaking away from her family and home and starting a new life apart from them. Desiree also ended up gaining flickers of my mum (who has always been very sensible and organized and shares a personality type -- ISTJ -- with Desi), as well as Elsa from Frozen, Luisa from Encanto, and Tiana from The Princess and the Frog. Both Kath and I have also found amusement at how much Juliree resembles Aladdin/Jasmine from Aladdin, ship-wise, as well.

Eli was largely inspired by comic film actors Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplin, as well as Robin Williams and Fiyero from the musical Wicked. Like Robin did, Eli struggles with severe depression, but works hard to keep a smile on so as to make others happy, and like Fiyero, he was the sort to “tune in and drop out” at school from an academic perspective, but he’s actually a lot deeper emotionally than he seems from the outside. 

Bairn’s initial spark just came from me finding Brock O’Hurn and wanting to design a character that resembled him, honestly! 😂 I gotta thank @magical-retales for brainstorming a Renaissance-set storyline featuring Merlin, though...it was so much fun to take inspiration from different King Arthur storylines for Bairn’s character, like the Once and Future King series and Disney’s The Sword in the Stone. Bairn also took some cues from both Harry Potter and Charlie Weasley, being a Gryffindor orphan raised by uncaring Muggles with a longing for family and a love of nature and magical creatures!

Emoji Ask Game!

Catching the other before they fall + any ship you want?

Aaaaany ship? 😈

31. Catching the other before they fall // Juliree

Featuring Kath Alton @magical-retales, Lugh Hopper @thatravenpuffwitch, Felix Witt @sirfluffig, and Darian Zain @kathrynalicemc​

Jules Aquila had always been the sort to get in over his head, when it came to his adventures. Usually he could pull himself out of it, and when he couldn’t, his best friend Kath was usually there to save his arse. Yet it seemed that Jules only got more and more reckless and fearless with every new person he “adopted” into the Empyrean’s crew. And moreover, it also seemed that the person who ended up saving Jules’s arse the most now was his new First Mate, Desiree Lestrange. 

One particularly adventurous day ended in Jules getting separated from the Empyrean altogether and getting captured by a group of Grindelwald sympathizers in the French countryside, led by Desiree’s younger brother Marius. When Jules refused to give up Desiree’s or his ship’s location, the group set about trying to force the answer out of him...only for the ship itself, steered by Lugh, to make an appearance to swoop into Jules’s rescue. 

Once Zephyr and Darian had effectively fended off Marius and his lackeys, Felix helped Jules with breaking open his enchanted chains and the two hurried on back to the ship, even as the wizards on the ground attacked it. The men ran so as to get a running start, meaning to jump on board just as the ship was taking off again into the air -- but unfortunately, the attacks were difficult to dodge, and they only just barely managed to seize hold of the railing. 

Kath ended up catching Felix in both arms when he threw himself at the railing, but Jules was struggling to hold on. Kath struggled to try to pull Felix onboard as fast as they could so as to get to their best friend, but it was no use -- Jules lost his grip, and with a cry, he fell right off the ship -- 

In an instant, a line of white rope streaked through the air, looping itself around Jules’s waist like a lifeline. 

Jules gave another startled outburst when he abruptly faltered in mid-air, dangling precariously for a moment back and forth like a man hanging at the gallows. Then he felt himself very slowly being pulled up. 

He looked up, and his expression brightened when he saw whose wand was on the other end of the line. 

"Desi.”

Desiree pulled up with all of her strength on her wand while also desperately reaching out over the railing with her free hand.

“Captain -- ” she cried, her voice oddly strained. 

Jules flung out his hand to seize hers. Desiree clung onto him for dear life, her eyes locked on the Empyrean’s captain with a kind of desperation he’d rarely seen on her face.

“Je te tiens,” she choked so quickly and quietly, Jules almost had trouble making it all out. “Je te tiens, Captain -- je ne te lâcherai jamais -- ”

She pulled and pulled with all the strength she could, until finally Darian flew up behind Jules and seized under his shoulders so as to help lift him and Felix and Kath were able to help Desiree pull Jules back onboard. 

As soon as everyone was safely back on the flying pirate ship, Zephyr the occamy swept through the air, shrinking down five sizes so that he was the perfect size to nuzzle against his “daddy’s” chin like an affectionate house cat. 

“Hey, buddy,” Jules said weakly. 

His voice was still rather hoarse, after all the screams the Cruciatus Curse had wrenched out of his throat, but it didn’t keep him from smiling fully as he looked around at his crew. 

“...Thanks, you guys,” he murmured. His eyes lingered on Desiree’s face as she finally, very slowly withdrew her hand from his. “You really came at a good time...”

“Yeah? No shit,” Kath cut him off at once. Clearly they weren’t fooled at all by Jules’s sunny disposition. In the mechanic’s defense, though, Jules had received a few visible injuries along with the invisible kind -- one of his eyes was almost swollen shut. 

Desiree managed to keep Kath from tearing into Jules anymore by very firmly cutting in. 

“Monsieur Zain, take ze Captain below, to hiz cabin. He will need rest and treatment, as well as somezhing to eat.”

“So I handle the treatment, you handle the food,” Darian said lightly. “Got it, boss.”

The ribbing was tinged with an odd amount of seriousness, though, as he actually physically picked Jules up right off his feet and flew him across the deck.

“Wha -- hey!” said Jules, very startled. Zephyr was swirling in cheerful, artistic lines around him and Darian as they went. “You don’t have to -- I’m fine! Really!”

“Save your breath, Jules,” Felix said very dryly.  

“None of us are stupid enough to believe that,” said Lugh in an equally cool voice. He shot Jules an oddly reproachful look from his spot at the helm. “Now lie down in your cabin and let your squeeze feed you before you hurt yourself even more.”

Jules flushed darkly. “Lugh, we’ve been over this -- Desi and I are not -- ”

But nobody was really in the mood to pay him much mind. Even Desiree herself had perfectly ignored the entire exchange, as she’d immediately set about conjuring up some illusionary shields so as to better obscure their escape and ordering Felix and Kath around to set the sails while Lugh steered them southward. 

Affectionate Moments Prompt!

[carewyncromwell]

Ship drabble challenge: 40 ("YOU DID WHAT?!?!?!") with Juliree or a different ship?

"YOU DID WHAT?!?!?!"

(featuring Jules Aquila @kathrynalicemc and Kathleen Alton @magical-retales)

When Desiree Lestrange ended up on board the Empyrean, just about no one in Jules's crew knew how to react. It wasn't exactly unlike Jules to "adopt" someone into his little sky-sailing family -- after all, Jules had also rescued and taken in a new pet occamy at the same time -- and admittedly the Captain had reacted with an odd amount of good humor every time the Banque Ducristaux's Head Cursebreaker ended up going after the same tombs they did...but it was still a touch odd.

No one had the courage to approach the Captain about it, though, besides the ship's mechanic, Kathleen Alton.

"You did WHAT?!?!"

Jules smiled, unabashed. "What? I couldn't jolly well not go back for her, when she'd just saved both Zephyr and me, could I?"

He gave the little occamy curled up on his wrist an affectionate pet, and Zephyr chirped happily as it zoomed away up into the rigging, snapping playfully at a passing seagull.

"You flew that occamy through Claude Macnair's nightclub, into the street, in front of all those wizards in le Place Cachée and then crashed through the Banque's clocktower," Kath said, unable to keep herself from grinning despite her best efforts. "I reckon there are wizards on the run from the Ministry of Magic who’ve flirted with breaking the Statute of Secrecy less than you, right now.”

Jules’s smile spread to a grin. “I’m sorry I couldn’t take you along.” 

“You should be!” 

Kath shifted around the helm so she could better reach the screw on the other side of the steering wheel. Once she had better access, she brought her wrench up and tightened it with some particularly strong shrieks.

“Gotta ask, though,” she said after a moment, “you did all that, just for her? That uptight, fancy-pants Cursebreaker? I mean, come on, I know you like Muggle stories of swooping in like a hero and ‘rescuing the fair damsel,’ but I reckon that dame’s name would’ve protected her from any consequences, if you didn’t make such a scene...” 

“Aw, but what fun would it have been, if I didn’t make a scene?” joked Jules.

Kath chucked her wrench in his direction, making Jules laugh as he dodged it.

“I know you, Jules,” said Kath. “Don’t think I don’t get what’s going on here. After the little dance you and little Miss Cursebreaker have been doing these last few months -- you charting our course toward more tombs when you knew she was likely to be there, the two of you bantering and flirting every time you collided -- ”

“Flirting?” recurred Jules, so taken aback he’d started to laugh. “Oh, come on, Kath, it’s not like that. I mean, sure, I always liked whenever Desi and I ended up colliding at a tomb, but that’s because she’s fun to have around! However much of a stick-in-the-mud she can be sometimes...”

“All the time,” Kath said with a dry smirk. 

“Hey, she can be funny, when she wants to be,” Jules challenged her, grinning even more broadly himself. “She’s great at breaking Dark curses and dueling -- and damn, she’s smart. You can’t tell me it won’t be helpful to have someone who’s fluent in at least five languages on-board.”

“If you say so,” said Kath. “But that’s not really the point.”

She extended a hand expectantly. Jules picked up her discarded wrench and handed it back to her so she could continue tightening screws.

“I don’t know if you’ve forgotten this, Jules -- but that woman’s a Lestrange. One of the most feared Pureblood families in all of Europe. They’re wealthy, well-established, and worst of all, influential. From what I gather, they could order a hit on a guy, and no one in any Ministry, British or otherwise, would be brave enough to look into it. Rumor is some of them have even aligned themselves with that bloke Grindelwald...and just about no one is surprised.”

Jules shook his head. “Yeah, but...Desi’s not like that, Kath. I’ve never heard her say anything against Muggle-borns. I mean, ‘Aquila’ isn’t even a real surname, as far as I know -- she has to know I’m probably not Pureblood...”

“But that’s just it, Jules,” Kath pressed him stubbornly. “Sure, maybe we got lucky and she’s not like that, but her family is. And those guys would hate you on sight even if you didn’t just kidnap one of their family members.”

“I’d hardly call it a kidnapping when Desi took my hand and came with me out of her own choice,” Jules said coolly.

“That’s not how they’re going to see it. Why do you think my parents sheltered me so much? Controlling people are all the same. They know their target having someone on the outside makes it that much easier for them to break loose. It’s obvious they’ll blame you, the ‘filthy Sang-de-Bourbe,’ for corrupting their chere petite princesse.”

Jules frowned deeply. Kath’s face was oddly serious as she brought a hand onto his shoulder. 

“...Look, mate -- I get wanting to help someone who helped you. Wanting to help someone fly free. And I’m glad you did it. I’m glad she helped you too. Just...keep in mind, you’ve made some pretty big enemies, taking Desiree Lestrange on-board. My family’s mad about me jumping ship with you, but they can’t follow me that easily, without magic. Hers could.”

At that moment, Zephyr fluttered back through the air between them, trailing its tail beside both of their arms with a musical chirp, before he swooped down to the deck. He swept around Desiree’s shoulders as she gave light tugs to all of the ship’s ropes to make sure their connections were secure.

“Ah!” she said, slightly startled. “Qu’est-ce que tu fait, petit occamy? Je travaille.”

Zephyr cooed affectionately, nuzzling her chin. 

Trying very hard not to smile, Desiree brought a single hand off the rope she was checking to tentatively stroke the top of his feathery head with her finger -- as if she really had no instincts about how to handle a creature like Zephyr, yet she was still charmed by how sweet he was being, all the same.

Jules watched the exchange and beamed. 

“...What’s a few more enemies, when it means you’ve acquired a new friend?”

[carewyncromwell]

I so need to write/draw some Juliree content, I love them so much 😭 The image of Jules surprising Desi with tropical flowers and dragonfruit for Valentine’s Day makes me so soft!! Also Desi would be totally in-the-same-boat about kids as Jules — she kind of always expected to have to have kids someday, for the sake of her family’s wishes, but she didn’t really feel any enthusiasm toward the idea until she fell in love with Jules. At which point whenever she’d dwell on the idea, she’d smile like a little girl imagining Jules playing pirates with their kids and carrying them on his shoulders the way she’s seen other people do with their kids… 🥰

Ohhh, but Lanny’s boggart, though!! Being powerless would undoubtedly be scary, for such a bad-ass as her 😞 Also Eli would ttly be the fun uncle, if he lives long enough to see Lanny and Atticus’s kiddos

🕷🌹 and 🍼 for Jules, Kath, and Iolanthe? 🥰

Spider - What are their irrational or biggest fears?

As a child growing up in the orphanage, Jules's biggest fear was never leaving and being stuck there like a prison. As an adult, it's of course the thought of losing his ship, crew, and dearest beloved Desi <3

Kath's fear is def never seeing her brother Jasper again. She's also worried that someday she will see the future in the stars about herself or someone she loves thats predicting bad things or death.

Iolanthe is not one to shy away from things and she meets challenges head on. However, if she was scared of anything, it would be either losing her powers or her knowledge. She hates to feel powerless.

Rose - Do they like valentines day and have they confessed feelings to anyone?

Jules loves Valentines and goes all out for Desi with flowers (freshly picked from a rain forest) and fruit bought from a market stall in a bazar somewhere. (she prefers fruit, right?). The first time he probably ever confesses feelings to someone would be with Desi.

She's not super crazy over Valentines but enjoys all the chocolate. I haven't really decided on her love interest after my remake (it was Barnaby and then male Rowan and now shes open to oc x oc) but no matter who she ends up with, I think she would be too scared to directly initiate a relationship herself. She would rely on others to make the move.

Iolanthe her whole life sort of hated Valentines. She didn't focus any attention towards dating at all as she was too focused on her ambition and learning. It's another story once she meets Atticus though. He's the only one who managed to draw away and capture her attention. Not sure who confessed first but it could be either of them as shes bold and chases what she wants.

Baby Bottle - What's their thoughts about children?

Jules probably wouldn't think about it much until Desi came along. He's hesitant at first because of his own upbringing in an orphanage but quickly decides he would love kids. Teaching them and reading them his favorite fairytales appeals to him.

Kath would love to have children (she has had some with each romance before. rip the kids). She might be a bit protective knowing what she and Jasper went through and not want them to have the same mistakes.

Echoing my answer from above, Iolanthe never even gave a thought towards children until Atticus came along. After that, if he wanted kids she would gladly give him some. She probably feels awkward at first with them and not very motherly and concerned about not giving them enough attention when shes working but she warms up and realizes she can teach them all the knowledge she knows and can pass it down for generations so its never forgotten or lost.

As for my own contributions to this, I like to relate Juliree to Stede and Ed from OFMD 🤡 Watch it if you haven’t, it’s the best thing ever and has 3 canon queer relationships! Also,,, Pirates!!

*Cue Desi teaching Jules how to dine properly at a formal function*

🖊 Do you have anything for Desiree and her fellow crewmates?

*eyes @kathrynalicemc, @magical-retales, @sirfluffig, and @thatravenpuffwitch and waggles her eyebrows*

🖊 Desiree Lestrange

Desiree is a rather level and soft-spoken sort who doesn't get particularly animated when it comes to expressing her emotions, especially in comparison to her much more amiable and less emotionally dysfunctional counterpart, Jules. Despite this, though, one thing all of her friends on the crew of the Empyrean soon learn is that although she doesn't get particularly loud, Desiree can turn into an absolutely innocent, gleeful child when it comes to learning something new. And fortunately, it really doesn't have to be something particularly profound or academic -- just something she hadn't known previously or didn't know much about. Jules figured this out about Desiree the very first time they met when he mentioned his interest in Astronomy and Desiree -- who up until that point had treated him with nothing but formality and impatience -- proceeded to pepper him with questions the way an eager student would with their professor during a particularly interesting lecture. Kath discovered this when they first showed her how to fix the crew's record player and "Little Miss Perfect" proceeded to ask Kath to help her take the whole thing apart so she could put it back together to see how each piece fit into the greater whole. Felix learned it when he once pulled a coin "out of Desiree's ear," only for Desiree to track down an entire book of magic tricks herself so she could learn more about how such illusions were done. Lugh figured it out when Desiree saw him fire a Muggle pistol once and then sought him out the next day, several books in hand about gun safety and construction, to ask him to show her how to shoot one herself. Even Darian learned this about Desiree when after their chores one day, she asked Darian to sit with her on deck and held out one of his wings so she could compare it to the wing skeleton illustrations in a book she was reading on different bird species of the world.

Send me a “🖊+an OC,“ and I will talk about that OC!
