Garden of Desire, Corny

[stephen alexander cornfoot]

Awkward. Hufflepuff. Fifth Year. Herbologist. Quiet. Communication Difficulties. Muggle-born. Herbology. Potions. Writer. In Love. Seriously In Love. Seriously, Seriously In Love! Has little friends. Still manages to survive daily.

Important Characters in his life: The love of his life is an important plot for Corny. Please read his application before considering taking this role. There is some history between the two that should be known. Here are several other characters that could fit into Corny's life. Which ever you wish would be appreciated!

• One past girlfriend
  
• One best guy friend
  
• One close friend, female
  
• One older student, protector
  
• Mentor

Past girlfriend was a relationship that only lasted two weeks. He was so awkward that it didn't work out too well. It would have ended very well, and they would have remained friends. He feels embarrassed about being an inexperienced boyfriend. This would have been his first kiss.

Best guy friend is like his best friend in the whole world. This guy would be bad at potions and herbology so they can help each other in classes. This guy would be one of only two people that Corny is always talking around. He is comfortable with this friend, and considers him to be a brother.

The close female friend would be someone who tries to bring him out of his shell, or talks to him sometimes when they can find him in the mood to talk. The two always exchange Christmas and Birthday gifts, and might also have went on holiday together at one time.

The older student ran off some Slytherins that were picking on him during his first ride to Hogwart's. He was grateful for having this person, even if he didn't talk to him/her much during that year. He warmed up to this older student and considers them to be a big brother/sister type.

Mentor would probably be a professor of Herbology or Potions.

Anything else is open. Feel free to add on something here. Thanks for reading.

[OLIVIA AUBREY]

Olivia and Corny:
Same year, same house.
She could be that one really close girl friend
And/or the girl he's in love with because she would love him too!
Yay!

[stephen alexander cornfoot]

Really close girl that is a friend AND girl that he loves. I think she would suit both of those requirements. Not to mention, they look stunning together. We should do that plot.

[OLIVIA AUBREY]

Yay! Do you want me to set up a thread after I do all my claims?

[stephen alexander cornfoot]

Yes, please? I am still at work and sneaking on while there are lows in the crowd. I can reply tonight, or first thing tomorrow. Depending on how the rest of the day goes.

I also have an open thread for Corny posted in the Greenhouses, of course.

[Charlotte Bryson]

OH HAI ROB.
This is Charlotte. She's.. well, she's insane. But that's not important.
I think she would be the older student/protector.
At first, she's snarky and mean, but not really.
If she saw people picking on him she would get angry because she doesn't like bullies. (which is actually pretty hypocritical, but whatever..)
She would find his awkward-ness endearing, but would constantly try to get him out of his shell.
I think their friendship would be great, because she would try to make him stand up for himself in her own bossy little way.

[stephen alexander cornfoot]

Chucky! I love it, and think it fits perfectly. We should roll with that idea. Not to mention that Good Luck she is really cute, he would be seriously awkward around her. This could frustrate her even more, which would make us have some great threads. Love it!

[abigail murray]

Past girlfriend perhaps? lol

[Charlotte Bryson]

I love this plot!
Charlie finds it hilarious when guys get flustered around her, but with Corny, she'd just write it off as him being awkward.
Maybe in the past he could have tried to flirt with her and she would be like "LOLOL You're cute but no." and so no problems there.
Or something. Fun timez. [:

Abbie, past girl friend works well.

I need to go post now, huh? LOL!

I love Cornfoot and I’ve basically been stalking this thread for days, always meaning to post and never actually posting. I understand that you’re currently away, but I guess this’ll be here when you get back, eh? xD

I have a half-formed idea for a past friendship between Mr. Stephen, Rhys, and Olivia. All three are muggle-borns of the same year, so they might have spent their first ride on the Hogwarts Express together. They may have stayed friends for a few months in their first year despite being sorted into different Houses – Rhys isn’t all that keen on Herbology, so he probably would’ve relied on Corny’s natural talent for it. Eventually Rhys would have decided that picking on Cornfoot was more enjoyable than being a decent friend, and, years later, Rhys is still casually tormenting Stephen whenever his protector isn’t around. xD

Even without this common past Rhys would probably pick on Stephen, but it does add a bit of depth to their interactions, if you like it. c: Either way, I can see Rhys possibly intercepting a letter Cornfoot attempts to send to Olivia and, though keeping the contents secret, using it to tease and possibly blackmail Stephen.

I love the idea of a letter being found, and used against Corny. He would eventually be all wondering why things turned out the way they had. "You put on those green robes and all of a sudden you're an asshole?" Totally a sign that Corny had had enough of the abuse. He might even decide to fight back, which could be comical since he had never cursed anyone before. I could see his spell turning on him and all sorts of interesting things happening.

I am all in for it!
