Now that you've finished the Saga (btw, I barely even know you but you must know I'm incredibly proud of you for finishing such a long project!!!) what will you miss most about it? What were some things you wanted to include but didn't, if there were any?

Hi! Thanks for sending an ask! I feel like I only half-know you (your comments on AO3 have made me smile so much over the last couple of months!) so it’s really nice to hear from you 🥹

What will I miss the most about the Saga? Probably the characters being children. I’m writing them as adults at the moment, and even though it’s fun (SO much fun) to get them hanging out in bars and chatting grown-up-to-grown-up with some of the adult “cast”, a part of me misses the days when their biggest worries were losing house points. That’s been the case for a while now, but these days there’s not even the familiarity of Hogwarts itself, which is a shame.

As for things I wanted to include but didn’t, most of them were in the seventh story. During the rest of the story, anything I didn’t have time for it couldn’t fit into the current “book” I was writing just got reworked into one of the later ones. Obviously, that didn’t work for the last one! Some of it was just small practical things, like not including the Quidditch final of Year 7 - once the Vaults came into play, Quidditch suddenly didn’t matter that much. Then there was not having time to wrap up Victor’s side plot (he was originally going to suggest telling her the deal with his vampirism over a drink in a typical Victor style, but the final chapter ended up being too long without that!), and if there had been room in the plot I would have loved for Artemis to actually come face to face with Rakepick before the end. There wasn’t, but who knows what the future will hold?

[ellie-e-marcovitz]

I'd love to learn more about your Jacob! How about 4, 9, 11, and 49? :)

Apologies for the delay. Life seems to be imploding in slo-mo.

4. What's considered an unforgivable action?

Harming his family, especially his siblings. Or Olivia. She'd kick his butt over his protectiveness, but Rakepick really managed to get under his skin, with help from his uncle.

9. What's your character’s trigger point? What makes them...

angry? Aside from hurting (or threatening) his family, assuming he won't question doing something (or assuming he'll blindly agree)

sad? Betrayal of trust, loss of a close friend or family member.

which turns to rage that can be fairly destructive (possibly found the Room of Requirement after losing Duncan, needing to throw stuff around)

makes them go off/lose their temper? Being dismissed, despite having the facts to back up what he's saying. He tried talking with Flitwick and McGonagall, but they had a hard time believing him at the time.

11. Do they enjoy pranks or not? Are they likely to fall for one?

Jacob can be a prankster, a trait he shares with his dad, which made April Fools' Day around the Marcovitz home a suspicious place. He particularly enjoys muggle pranks (salt in sugar, plastic wrap in inconvenient places, etc.), though he's careful about them around Ellie, after a mixing a least favourite biscuit in with one she did like.

49. Biggest fear? Most irrational fear?

His biggest fear is loosing someone's he's close to (family in particularly)

His boggart was originally his great-grandfather Cyrus's body, crumpled

Most irrational fear is, funny enough, ghosts and the old muggle takes on vampires (accidentally watched a bit of Dracula when he was young, scarred him). Took going to Hogwarts to alleviate him, somewhat, of that, even if he tended to avoid Nearly Headless Nick.

@carewyncromwell thank you for asking 😊

[blubxtch]

I drew this gift for @heleneplays like,,,a week ago???And only post it now???I’m sorry.

Anyway, I love her Librarian!Helene and Vampire!Rakepick AU, so I decided to honour my favourite simp with this wee doodle. <3 Much love darling, I love your posts, and thanks for making my time on Tumblr that much more enjoyable! Also check out her other/side/non-HPHM blog @h-doodles!

2 more left to go, don’t know when I’ll do them, considering how many other drawings I’m inspired to do but we’ll see. :P

[nightingaletrash]

Me, inserting Rakepick into VTM because I can??? It's more likely than you think ;)

Name: Patricia Rakepick

Clan: Brujah

Generation: 7th

Sire: Unknown, Verucca (adopted)

Humanity: 5

Predator Type: Alley Cat

Disciplines: Potence, Celerity, Presence, Thaumatergy, Dominate, Protean

Protean Form(s): Lioness and Falcon

Age: Unknown

Place of Birth: Ireland

The mysterious Patricia Rakepick has a reputation for unpredictable motives and fluent allegiances - few can claim to know her and even fewer can claim to understand the driving force behind her actions.

All anyone knows for sure is that Rakepick will go to all sorts of lengths to get what she wants, and that she tends to plan years, even decades in advance. She is constantly moving pieces on a board that only she seems to see in its entirety; developing her own position is how she channels her Brujah passions... As do her adventures into the unknown.

Though nominally a member of the Camarilla, Rakepick possesses Sabbat origins. She was sired at random as a Shovelhead, to serve as an expendable shocktrooper for the Sabbat, only to survive and escape. She survived her first year alone through cunning and sheer stubbornness, until she was found by Verucca, a Tremere who recognised the potential of the young Brujah and decided to take her in.

Under Verucca's guidance, Rakepick flourished and grew to be a respected - albeit suspect - member of Kindred society. She would often seek out relics and texts for her adopted sire and was responsible for the Final Deaths of many of the night's monsters. She even worked as an Archon for a time. However, its clear to all that she has no real loyalty to the Camarilla and has remained purely for her sire's sake. She's been known to flout the Traditions if it benefits her own plans, and at the end of the night, she'd sooner fight her way out of the consequences than bend the knee.

Juniper Hamia Hasni-Moss

This will be updated regularly but I wanted to freshen up Juniper's profile to match with the aesthetic of my others.

PROFILE

Nicknames: Pip (by Jacob), Hamia (by her dad and his side of the family), Juno (by her mum), Junie (by Charlie).

Born: 16th January 1973.

Hometown: Tentsmuir magical community, Fife, Scotland.

Nationality/Ethnicity: mixed race - 1/2 afro Algerian & 1/2 Scottish white (Holds both British & Algerian citizenship).

Language(s) spoken: English (Scots), French, and Arabic (Darja).

Blood status: halfblood.

Gender identity: witch (she/her).

Sexuality: heterosexual.

Face claim: Jordy Hathfury (from Instagram).

PERSONAL

Myers-Briggs Type: ENFP (The Campiagner)

Alignment: chaotic neutral.

Strengths: extroverted, loyal, smart, curious, tenacious, open-minded, playful.

Weaknesses: disorganised, hot-tempered, impatient, secretive, slight attention seeker.

Interests/hobbies: duelling, solving ancient runes, curse breaking, conspiracies (Most are about the MoM), nifflers.

Favourite colour: indigo.

Favourite food: peppermint toads.

Favourite drink: irn bru.

APPEARANCE

Height: 1.63m/5'3ft (stopped growing at 15).

Weight: 49kg/108lbs (roughly but loses a lot after her torture injury).

Hair: blue, slightly grey straight hair but keeps it wavy regularly.

Eyes: brown almost black.

Skin: light to medium brown depending on the season.

Defects: some small scars from duels and quidditch (as teen), animal scratches, vampire bite on neck, burn scars from magic attacks on her shoulder and torso, major ice burn on her right side from torture (as adult).

Style: goes from basic 80s kids fashion of mum jeans, oversized tops and jackets to more mature witchy goblin core aesthetic but loves a good dramatic coat and boots.

WITCHCRAFT

1st wand: hornbeam and dragon heartstring, 11 inches, inflexiable (destroyed by Rakepick).

That hornbeam selects for its life mate the talented witch or wizard with a single, pure passion, which some might call obsession (though I prefer the term ‘vision’), which will almost always be realised. Hornbeam wands adapt more quickly than almost any other to their owner’s style of magic, and will become so personalised, so quickly, that other people will find them extremely difficult to use even for the most simple of spells. Hornbeam wands likewise absorb their owner’s code of honour, whatever that might be, and will refuse to perform acts – whether for good or ill – that do not tally with their master’s principles. A particularly fine-tuned and sentient wand.

2nd wand: ebony and dragon heartstring, 11 1/4 inches, flexiable.

This jet-black wand wood has an impressive appearance and reputation, being highly suited to all manner of combative magic, and to Transfiguration. Ebony is happiest in the hand of those with the courage to be themselves. Frequently non-conformist, highly individual or comfortable with the status of outsider, ebony wand owners have been found both among the ranks of the Order of the Phoenix and among the Death Eaters. In my experience the ebony wand’s perfect match is one who will hold fast to his or her beliefs, no matter what the external pressure, and will not be swayed lightly from their purpose.

Animagus form: Russain blue cat.

Former patronus: tiger.

Patronus memory: her day trip to Edinburgh with Jacob.

Current patronus: monarch plain tiger butterfly.

Patronus memory: spending time with Marwa.

Boggart: a hospital bed calling her mad and insane as personification of her fear of hospitals.

Riddikulus: the bed bursting into feathers.

Amortentia (what does she smell?): honeysuckle and grass.

Amortentia (what does she smell like?): coast, butterbeer, and pine.

Magical abilities: born legilimens, trained occlumens (as an adult), skilled in wandless and verballess magic.

AT HOGWARTS

Hogwarts house: Ravenclaw.

Best subjects: arithmancy, charms, DADA.

Worst subjects: herbology, history of magic, and astronomy

Third-year options: arithmancy, ancient runes, care of magical creatures.

O.W.Ls:

O - charms, DADA, transfiguration, and arithmancy.

E - ancient runes, CoMC, and potions.

A - astronomy and HoM.

T - herbology (but who is surprised).

N.E.W.Ts: ancient runes, charms, DADA, potions, transfiguration (but never got to sit them as she was expelled a month before the exams).

Quidditch position: seeker (year 2 and quit mid season in year 4).

RELATIONSHIPS

Family:

Julia Moss (mother) - A Scottish witch who previously worked as a secretary at the international co-operation department in hopes to save up money to move to Paris ended up pregnant while unwedded so she has a shotgun marriage with Jalil from family pressures. She was present in Juniper's life until Jacob disappeared leaving her to fall deep in her depression. Despite being emotionally absent, Julia has been trying her best to heal.

Jalil Hasni (father) - A pureblood Algerian wizard who works up in the top of international co-operation department left Britain back to Algeria when Juniper was eight. This left Juniper to resent her father for leaving but kept in contact to ensure that her and her mother still had money until she was old enough to earn.

Jacob Hasni-Moss (brother) - Juniper looked up to Jacob who was her biggest role model who refused to believe that Jacob was mad or dead. She pursued the cursed vaults to find her brother who disappeared in the summer of 1981.

Aileen, Theodore Jr, Lilianna, Harvey, Paige & Clover Sweets (Second cousins) - They're Juniper's relatives in America whom they try to visit at least once a year but contact waned a little after Jacob's disappearance.

Marwa (adopted sister/child) - An orphaned muggleborn girl that Juniper and Bill found in Egypt who turned out to be an obscurial. They took her in and shown kindness and acceptance that helped Marwa. Juniper took main custody when she was fired from Gringotts and started freelance work.

Tarragon Weasley-Moss (daughter).

Duncan Ludwig (nephew).

Friends:

Rowan Khanna (BFF).

Ben Copper (second closest friend).

Tulip Karasu & Badeea Ali (dormmates).

Penny Haywood (gossip buddy).

Bill Weasley (adopted big brother and each other's love adviser).

Charlie Weasley (they would die for each other).

Nymphadora Tonks (serial plant killers together).

Andre Egwu (fashion adviser and quidditch buddy).

Barnaby Lee (fellow Scots and soft boi).

Jae Kim (detention buddy and mischief supplier).

Chiara Lobosca (tags along to the transformation).

Other MC friends:

Alvina Arcane-Zheng @oneirataxia-girl (distant relatives).

Ywa Hana @oneirataxia-girl (plant saver).

Cato Reese @catohphm (fellow Ravenclaw).

Madeline Orionswan @madelineorionswan (fellow Charlie stan).

Love interests:

Charlie Weasley - her crush on charlie crept slowly until she realised her feelings for him by 4th year but was crushed when he wasn't interested in dating. They had a chance in 5th Year but both missed the opportunity to go out and thus it ended with six more years before they finally confessed their feelings and became a couple eventually marrying too.

Talbott Winger - Juniper only asked Talbott out of curiosity to know what it was like dating and same was for Talbott. They broke up in 4th year and remained friends. However, when Alvina broke up with Talbott and Juniper realised that she missed her chance used each other a pseudo replacements in 6th Year and remained together until they were 20 before Juniper broke up with him via a letter.

Rivals:

Merula Snyde (just a unhealthy rivalry on Merula's part).

Skye Parkin (Tend to butt heads over most things).

Patricia Rakepick (Juniper could never trust her from the start).

R (why won't they leave her alone?!?!)

I just want another villain, not a friend, please JC make the vampire an enemy since Rakepick is gone and the mahoukotoro guy was useless

[heleneplays]

Rakepick but dressed as Lady Dumitrescu.

bold of you to assume i haven't been thinking about her

[nightingaletrash]

hey @rosyfingeredqueer I hope you don’t mind me answering your questions here, it just makes it a lil easier for me to write it all down than in chat ^^”

1. I know exactly what scene you’re talking about, and I think Evie would genuinely be okay with it from Sullivan because he’s her uncle. She trusts him and knows he’d never actually intentionally hurt her, and it’s actually pretty fun. If anyone who’s not like. Immediate family or someone she trusts completely, then it would be ‘that’s bad touch and I will hit you if you try it >:(’

So cool with Sullivan and other people she considers part of her family unit, not cool with strangers or acquaintances. She has to be willing to trust that it’s 100% fun or accident and no harm was at all intended.

2. So Evie’s sire is Rosetta, who leads the Ravnos Travellers that Evie and Kara were taken in by. In both Fledgling and non-Fledgling verses, Rosetta Embraced Evie earlier than she originally planned because she owed a very big favour to a Brujah called Rakepick. The deal was to Embrace Evie in LA, hang around the city for a few nights, and then the deal was settled - Rakepick didn’t mention the part where she planned to leak the unsanctioned Embrace to the Camarilla, because she wants to draw Roy out of hiding. In the Fledgling verse, Rakepick’s plan played out as intended, Rosetta and Evie were found and put on trial which led to the events of VTMB. In the non-Fledgling verse, Rosetta and Evie successfully escaped the notice of the Camarilla and were able to leave LA - maybe the Camarilla had enough going on that Rakepick’s leak wasn’t worth acting on? I’m happy to let you decide why the Camarilla decided not to go after Rosetta.

Anyways, as to how Evie feels about Rosetta... Rosetta is someone who wants Clan Ravnos to survive and be restored, but she’s also quite pragmatic about it. She has so many hopes to see her kind thrive once more, but knows the odds are practically non-existant. So when she Embraces Evie, she bundles up those hopes in her childe, but provides no emotional investment, because chances are this childe won’t survive more than a decade or two. Throw in the whole ‘Embracing her earlier than planned’ thing and Rosetta knows she has a childe who has the odds stacked against her. So she teaches everything she knows about her clan - their history, their powers, their brush with destruction - but expects it will eventually come to nothing.

Evie cottons onto that and is at just the right age where she doesn’t get it. She feels like a daughter whose mother only expects her to have children. To carry on a bloodline, to make more like them, and see to it that the knowledge is passed on. Nothing else is expected. And she resents that because she doesn’t want to make more Ravnos, she doesn’t want to exist purely for the clan alone, she wants to have meaning beyond that. Again, Rosetta had planned to Embrace Evie when she was older and perhaps more willing to Embrace and raise some childer herself, but hey, sometimes you owe favours to dangerous people ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That being said, she’s not petty enough to withhold her information from a Ravnos who might need it and she knows it’s important to look out for each other, especially when things are the way they are. She just doesn’t like the idea of existing purely for the sake of expanding the clan.

As for the Tremere, Evie just. Doesn’t really care? Rosetta tried to teach her a little about their history and why everyone hates them... and Evie just kinda missed all the nuance as to why the Tremere are so hated because vampires seem to be power-hungry arseholes in general, what makes the Tremere so special? So yeah, she’s not got super strong feelings one way or the other.

Now, the Sabbat... she was lucky enough to not have such an explosively Bad start with the Sabbat that she has when she’s the Fledgling, but she still harbours a lot of negative feelings towards them over the whole ‘you murdered my mother when I was eight’ thing, as well as her whole moral position overall. Her understanding of the Sabbat is more nuanced thanks to spending time with Sullivan and Kara who are able to teach her more about the sect beyond what she would have seen in Bloodlines, but there’s a lot there that just makes her very uncomfortable and there’s stuff she’s straight up against. She’d be willing to cooperate with Sullivan when he’s on Sabbat business, but only so long as she’s not made to do anything that she’s against such as causing harm to innocents and the like.

3. I really want to say yes to her knowing Beckett, even when she’s not the Fledling, because her relationship with him was so incredibly formative when I created Evie, so I could never really toss it out completely for any verse. The circumstances would just be a bit different. Kara was a historian in life, and that carries over into her unlife - perhaps it led to her meeting Beckett, and him then meeting and taking a liking to Evie.

In all verses, he’s very encouraging of her, prodding her into thinking for herself and using what she’s learned to draw her own opinions rather than parroting what everyone else is saying. And he likes her boldness and the way she can ask so many questions, it’s nice to see that the youth can still be engaged with learning and discovery.

asdfghjkl Uncle Beckett takes Evie on field trips, which can range from breaking into a museum to dungeon delving in cursed ruins. He’s just got to make sure he brings her back in one piece or he’ll be dealing with some very angry Lasombra.
